- 0:51Speaker 4: here is they just turned off my I'm going to
- 0:54Speaker 4: a vote. A last electrician here.
- 0:58Speaker 3: For first Joining me now is Menzies Research Center. Seeing you,
- 1:01Speaker 3: fellow Nick cat Nick, good to see you. I want
- 1:04Speaker 3: to start with these latest anti Semitic attacks in Sydney
- 1:07Speaker 3: overnight where cars were set alive. There was anti Semitic
- 1:11Speaker 3: graffiti sprayed on walls, and this was in an area
- 1:15Speaker 3: as well that has a large Jewish population.
- 1:19Speaker 5: Nick, I want to get.
- 1:19Speaker 3: Your reaction to these latest incidents and how much can
- 1:23Speaker 3: this be attributed to Labour's complete and utter failure to
- 1:27Speaker 3: stamp it out from the start.
- 1:30Speaker 6: Well, the first thing is, I mean I think hearts
- 1:32Speaker 6: grow out for the people in Wulara, in fact that
- 1:34Speaker 6: whole Eastern Suburbs district. I mean, we've had this long,
- 1:38Speaker 6: i think pointless debate about whether the attack on the
- 1:41Speaker 6: synagogue last week was terrorism, but it certainly has the
- 1:44Speaker 6: effect of terrorism, as this does to strike terror into
- 1:47Speaker 6: the community, to make them feel uneasy about going out
- 1:50Speaker 6: at night, about whenever they hear a bang or a
- 1:52Speaker 6: knock in the night, be worried what is happening out there.
- 1:55Speaker 6: It is the most appalling behavior and we want to
- 1:58Speaker 6: see the police crack down. I think it does come
- 2:01Speaker 6: down to leadership. I've just come back from New York, Danika,
- 2:05Speaker 6: and I was there for the Macy's Thanksgiving parade when
- 2:09Speaker 6: the Palestinian demonstrators sat down in front of Ronald MacDonald
- 2:14Speaker 6: and blocked the parade. But the police had warned at
- 2:16Speaker 6: the start they would have a zero tolerance approach for
- 2:19Speaker 6: anybody blocking the route, and sure enough they moved in
- 2:22Speaker 6: no hesitation, strong armed these people out of the way
- 2:26Speaker 6: with complete force and complete decisiveness. And that is the
- 2:30Speaker 6: way you have to do it. It's a zero tolerance
- 2:33Speaker 6: policing that New York has become famous for, but in
- 2:36Speaker 6: this case they put it into practice for anybody who
- 2:39Speaker 6: is disrupting the public going about their normal business or
- 2:43Speaker 6: in this case, I think, terrorizing them. So I do
- 2:46Speaker 6: want to It's good to see the police now speaking
- 2:49Speaker 6: a lot more strongly, and to see the Prime Minister
- 2:52Speaker 6: come out right away. Seems to have learned his lesson
- 2:54Speaker 6: and condemned this in the most in the strongest possible terms.
- 2:58Speaker 6: It's taken him a while to get that habit, but
- 3:00Speaker 6: I'm glad that he did it. But we really, I think,
- 3:03Speaker 6: need to see some strong policing now and some arrests.
- 3:06Speaker 6: I mean, for goodness sake, if these were real terrorists,
- 3:09Speaker 6: you'd want them to be arrested, wouldn't you. Police have
- 3:12Speaker 6: got all sorts of powers, listening equipment, all the rest.
- 3:16Speaker 6: Surely they should put all this to work now to
- 3:18Speaker 6: root out these people and to get them into before
- 3:21Speaker 6: the courts.
- 3:22Speaker 3: Oh look absolutely, I mean if labor is faired income,
- 3:25Speaker 3: they will make sure that all authorities do exactly that.
- 3:28Speaker 3: But gosh, it's been how many months, fourteen fifteen months,
- 3:31Speaker 3: and only now are we're getting this reaction from alban Easy.
- 3:34Speaker 3: It's just too little, too late. Now I want to
- 3:37Speaker 3: talk to you about Labour's renewables only fantasy, which as
- 3:40Speaker 3: we know, is sending.
- 3:41Speaker 5: Us broke and backwards. It's now been revealed that wind solar.
- 3:45Speaker 3: And battery developers are tapping into a federal subsidy scheme
- 3:48Speaker 3: which guarantees them a revenue flow now that is fully
- 3:52Speaker 3: funded by us, the Australian taxpayers for the next fifteen years.
- 3:56Speaker 3: And Nick, is this going to be another blowout for
- 3:59Speaker 3: taxpayers funding this pipe dream.
- 4:04Speaker 6: With the liability on taxpayers, isn't it. If these people
- 4:06Speaker 6: don't get the money that they want, then the government's
- 4:08Speaker 6: going to fork out. The government's basically underwriting all the
- 4:12Speaker 6: risk on their business. It doesn't do that to anything else.
- 4:15Speaker 6: It doesn't do that to Sky News for instance. You
- 4:17Speaker 6: take the risk you're a private enterprise company. But here
- 4:21Speaker 6: the government is taking the risk and this doesn't really
- 4:24Speaker 6: fit with the whole line from Chris Bowen that renewables
- 4:28Speaker 6: are the cheapest form of energy. They are there is.
- 4:31Speaker 6: If they were, then they wouldn't need to put these
- 4:34Speaker 6: incentives in place. They wouldn't need to bribe developers with
- 4:38Speaker 6: taxpayers money to invest in these things. It was always
- 4:41Speaker 6: going to come down to this because in the end
- 4:43Speaker 6: there's not a lot of appetite for this kind of development.
- 4:46Speaker 6: It's far too expensive. You don't get those costs back
- 4:49Speaker 6: in terms of energy. The only way you can make
- 4:51Speaker 6: money out of wind and solar is through government substance,
- 4:54Speaker 6: through renewable energy certificates and other forms of subsidy, which
- 4:58Speaker 6: in this case is basically saying well, we're going to
- 5:01Speaker 6: make sure you get paid this fixed price. It'd be nice,
- 5:03Speaker 6: wouldn't it for every other business in Australia. Have he
- 5:06Speaker 6: got the same deal if you set up a corner
- 5:07Speaker 6: store and the government said, oh well, if you're not
- 5:10Speaker 6: going to make enough money, we're going to prop you up.
- 5:13Speaker 6: But it does it here, and it just makes nonsense
- 5:15Speaker 6: of the whole bowing rhetoric about this being cheap and
- 5:18Speaker 6: the best form of power.
- 5:20Speaker 3: It's not Oh I mean, look that rhetoric, it's just
- 5:23Speaker 3: it just keeps going, doesn't it. The bow and rhetoric
- 5:25Speaker 3: never sees to amaze. Now, Australia has officially launched a
- 5:29Speaker 3: Pacific policing initiative. This is worth hundreds of millions of
- 5:33Speaker 3: dollars and it's in an effort to fend off China's
- 5:36Speaker 3: growing assertiveness in the region. It's a four hundred million
- 5:39Speaker 3: dollar pledge from the alb and Easy government to build
- 5:42Speaker 3: up policing capabilities across the region over the next five years. Nick,
- 5:47Speaker 3: do you actually think that this will have an impact?
- 5:52Speaker 6: Well, let's see, but it's certainly an initiative in the
- 5:55Speaker 6: right direction. I have to say here that I think
- 5:58Speaker 6: both governments are both have been far too lax about
- 6:03Speaker 6: their responsibility in our near region in the Pacific in
- 6:08Speaker 6: getting in there to help countries in every way we
- 6:11Speaker 6: can in order to stop China coming in and basically
- 6:14Speaker 6: buying up these places, which it's been doing.
- 6:17Speaker 5: So.
- 6:18Speaker 6: I don't know whether this initiative is enough money, whether
- 6:21Speaker 6: it's going to be effective, but certainly I'm glad to
- 6:24Speaker 6: see the initiative has been taken. It's pretty much the
- 6:27Speaker 6: same in Latin America, by the way, where the Americans
- 6:30Speaker 6: are saying they have to get much more involved now
- 6:33Speaker 6: to stop Chinese influence in place like Nicaragua and Venezuela.
- 6:37Speaker 6: Got China is doing it. China is assertive, it's essentially
- 6:40Speaker 6: a colonial power, and we've got to get in there
- 6:43Speaker 6: to kind of keep these countries on the right side.
- 6:46Speaker 3: Absolutely, look, we've got to do something about it. I'm
- 6:49Speaker 3: very interesting to see if this scheme actually does work,
- 6:52Speaker 3: but I do agree with you it's a step in
- 6:54Speaker 3: the right direction. Now, this next story, I've got to
- 6:57Speaker 3: say is quite.
- 6:57Speaker 5: A worry one.
- 6:58Speaker 3: In for emergency to apartment patients in New South Wales
- 7:02Speaker 3: say they wouldn't be there if they had access to
- 7:05Speaker 3: a GP, according to the Bureau of Health Information, which
- 7:10Speaker 3: has revealed twenty eight percent of ED patients surveyed would
- 7:13Speaker 3: have opted to see a GP but simply had no
- 7:16Speaker 3: choice but to go to the hospital. Nick, you know,
- 7:18Speaker 3: I've heard this happen a lot in the regions in particular.
- 7:21Speaker 3: I mean, they're at crisis point. There's not enough doctors,
- 7:24Speaker 3: not enough gps out there, and hospitals are being overrhum.
- 7:28Speaker 3: But we're now seeing this in the cities But the
- 7:31Speaker 3: problem here is as well as that EDS have these
- 7:34Speaker 3: patients who go there, they've got non life threatening injuries
- 7:37Speaker 3: but are still presenting.
- 7:38Speaker 5: But how do we get here?
- 7:39Speaker 3: Why is this crisis so dire that people simply cannot
- 7:42Speaker 3: find a GP.
- 7:45Speaker 6: We just don't have enough GPS. They're not enough incentives
- 7:48Speaker 6: there for the GPS. We have to look at this
- 7:50Speaker 6: to make sure that the funding they're getting for per
- 7:54Speaker 6: treatment is enough. I mean it seems woefully and adequate.
- 7:58Speaker 6: But what's not working Dnit is these GP superclinics. This
- 8:03Speaker 6: was labor solution last time, you know, put a lot
- 8:05Speaker 6: of tax payers money into making these GPS superclinics to
- 8:08Speaker 6: stop this kind of stuff happening. Well, it hasn't made
- 8:11Speaker 6: any difference. I know there are from initiatives where GP
- 8:15Speaker 6: surgeries are paid to stay open at the weekend in
- 8:18Speaker 6: order to try and take this some of the heat
- 8:21Speaker 6: off this And I know my daughter in law, for instance,
- 8:23Speaker 6: works in that area. So I know this is working,
- 8:26Speaker 6: but on a small scale. But we just have to
- 8:29Speaker 6: do a lot more. And in the end it comes down,
- 8:31Speaker 6: doesn't it, to a shortage of doctors. And up to
- 8:33Speaker 6: now we've been thinking, well we can just bring in doctors,
- 8:37Speaker 6: but there are fewer and fewer trained doctors ready to
- 8:40Speaker 6: move here because you know, they're getting living in their
- 8:43Speaker 6: own countries or elsewhere in the world. So immigration is
- 8:46Speaker 6: not the solution. We have to train more doctors. We
- 8:48Speaker 6: have to encourage more people to go into that great profession,
- 8:52Speaker 6: and I think to encourage those of them who will
- 8:55Speaker 6: do it because they want to do it as a
- 8:57Speaker 6: public service, because being a GP is very much a
- 9:00Speaker 6: a labor of love.
- 9:01Speaker 3: I think it's a labor of love, and I think
- 9:03Speaker 3: it takes a lot of patients to want to be
- 9:06Speaker 3: a GP. But it's a shame that we're not attracting
- 9:08Speaker 3: enough people and it really is truly at the detriment
- 9:12Speaker 3: of patients as we're seeing and crowded ed rooms as
- 9:15Speaker 3: a result. Now, Nico, I really liked this from Overnight.
- 9:19Speaker 3: America's new right hand man, of course, JD. Vance, the
- 9:23Speaker 3: soon to be Vice President of the United States. Well,
- 9:26Speaker 3: he has met with former Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott.
- 9:30Speaker 3: In fact, Tony Abbert he posted this beaming snap I
- 9:34Speaker 3: would say to x a company by quite a glowing endorsement.
- 9:38Speaker 5: Of the new second in charge he says.
- 9:41Speaker 3: An honor to catch up with incoming Vice President jd
- 9:45Speaker 3: Vance at a fraud time. America is blessed to have
- 9:48Speaker 3: leadership of such caliber. Nick, I think we can all agree.
- 9:52Speaker 3: Jd Vance is a wonderful speaker. I think he's going
- 9:55Speaker 3: to be a terrific vice president. But it's good that
- 9:58Speaker 3: Tony Abbot's already out there taking hands and hopefully helping
- 10:01Speaker 3: the Australia US alliance on.
- 10:06Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 10:06Speaker 6: I was in Washington actually last week with Tony Abbott
- 10:09Speaker 6: and a couple of functions he was out, including the
- 10:12Speaker 6: Danube Institute event, and he was meeting a lot of people.
- 10:16Speaker 6: But this is the selfie to die for, isn't it? Well,
- 10:18Speaker 6: probably the second best selfie to get in America right now,
- 10:20Speaker 6: the best being with Donald Trump. If I'd known he
- 10:23Speaker 6: was going to get it, I might have hung around
- 10:24Speaker 6: his coat tails and just snuck in for one of
- 10:27Speaker 6: my own. But yeah, I mean it's great to see.
- 10:30Speaker 6: I would imagine that the Tony Abbott and jd Vance
- 10:33Speaker 6: would have a lot in common. You know, have a
- 10:34Speaker 6: similar approach to conservative approach. They both understand that parties,
- 10:39Speaker 6: conservative parties need to focus on ordinary working people. You
- 10:43Speaker 6: know the Howard battlers, that Tony's trades as we used
- 10:46Speaker 6: to call them, and jd Vance has got his own
- 10:48Speaker 6: constituency like that, so I think there'd be a real
- 10:51Speaker 6: meeting of minds. But from all accounts, from what I hear,
- 10:55Speaker 6: jd Vance has been a very very important part of
- 10:58Speaker 6: the Trump team. He's brought a bit of intellectual heft
- 11:01Speaker 6: and Donald Donald Trump sort of fills it in his
- 11:04Speaker 6: soul and jd Vance is able to put it into
- 11:07Speaker 6: words and argue it more intellectually. And I would have
- 11:10Speaker 6: thought in that sense he'd be a good match for
- 11:12Speaker 6: Tony Abbotts. So I look forward to hearing more about
- 11:14Speaker 6: that meeting.
- 11:15Speaker 5: Yeah, me too. Hopefully we do find out more.
- 11:17Speaker 3: But you're right, I think they're a match for each other,
- 11:20Speaker 3: and I do believe Jade Vans is going to do
- 11:22Speaker 3: wonderful things that come January.
- 11:24Speaker 5: Nick Cata, really good to speak with you.
- 11:26Speaker 3: Thank you so much for joining me on the show
- 11:28Speaker 3: this evening. Joining me now is Newsweek's Deputy opinion editor,
- 11:33Speaker 3: Bartia Unga Sagan.
- 11:34Speaker 5: Bartia, good to see you.
- 11:36Speaker 3: Firstly, I want to get your reaction to the latest
- 11:38Speaker 3: anti Semitic incidents here in Australia the firebombing of a
- 11:43Speaker 3: Melbourne synagogue last week, but we wont to use this
- 11:46Speaker 3: morning of cars being torched and anti Semitic graffiti sprayed
- 11:50Speaker 3: on walls, and this happened in an area of Sydney
- 11:53Speaker 3: with a large Jewish population.
- 11:56Speaker 5: Bartia. I mean, look, we've seen this time and time again.
- 11:58Speaker 3: We've seen it in other places around the world, all
- 12:01Speaker 3: since October seven. How much in your view can this
- 12:04Speaker 3: be attributed to the filia of late is to actually
- 12:07Speaker 3: stand up for Israel and condemn anti Semitism.
- 12:13Speaker 7: It's, of course horrible to see this spreading. It's horrible
- 12:16Speaker 7: to see my fellow Jews having to deal with this
- 12:19Speaker 7: kind of thing, for their children not to feel safe,
- 12:21Speaker 7: for them not to feel safe showing up as Jews
- 12:25Speaker 7: in the public sphere, showing up to their places of worship.
- 12:29Speaker 7: I don't know deeply, unfortunately the situation in Australia, and
- 12:34Speaker 7: so I can't comment on that, but it does seem
- 12:37Speaker 7: to me like I have seen quite the outpouring of
- 12:39Speaker 7: love and support for the Jewish community, at least on
- 12:41Speaker 7: social media and in the media, and so I've been
- 12:44Speaker 7: very grateful to see that. Of course, at Sky News.
- 12:46Speaker 7: So thank you for that and for that support, and
- 12:49Speaker 7: to everybody in Australia who's making your Jews feel safe
- 12:52Speaker 7: and feel precious and treasured.
- 12:55Speaker 3: Yes, it's a shyma how Leada's can't be doing the same. Now, look,
- 12:59Speaker 3: let's talk about the not guilty verdict in the case
- 13:02Speaker 3: of Daniel Penny, who had been charged with negligent homicide
- 13:06Speaker 3: in the choke hold death of black man Jordan Nearly.
- 13:09Speaker 3: This happened on a New York City subway car back
- 13:11Speaker 3: in twenty twenty three. Now, for those at home, Daniel Penny,
- 13:14Speaker 3: he's a twenty six year old marine veteran. The judge
- 13:18Speaker 3: dismissed the charge after Dura said that they could not
- 13:21Speaker 3: come to a unanimous decision. And here was Daniel Penny
- 13:24Speaker 3: speaking with Fox News after that verdict.
- 13:27Speaker 8: I'll take a million.
- 13:30Speaker 9: Court appearances and.
- 13:33Speaker 8: People calling me names and people hating me just to
- 13:40Speaker 8: keep one of those people from getting hurt or killed.
- 13:43Speaker 5: But yeah, the Left have been up in arms about this.
- 13:46Speaker 3: They tried to make this a divisive issue over race.
- 13:49Speaker 3: Clearly it was not, I mean, but we can hardly
- 13:51Speaker 3: be surprised, can we let the left always make it
- 13:54Speaker 3: a racial.
- 13:55Speaker 7: Problem, absolutely, And what Daniel Penny said in that Fox
- 14:00Speaker 7: interview was he could not have lived with himself if
- 14:05Speaker 7: Jordan Neely, who was high on drugs, had harmed one
- 14:09Speaker 7: of the subway writers who he was threatening. Daniel Penny said,
- 14:14Speaker 7: I would take this trial any day of the year
- 14:17Speaker 7: over having to live with myself for sitting idly by
- 14:21Speaker 7: if Jordan Neelie had hurt somebody.
- 14:23Speaker 5: And what you.
- 14:24Speaker 7: Saw there was what the trial was actually about, which
- 14:28Speaker 7: is this was not about race, This was about masculinity.
- 14:32Speaker 7: Daniel Penny was a man who understood what that meant.
- 14:36Speaker 7: His job was to protect the vulnerable, the women and
- 14:39Speaker 7: children on that subway car who were being threatened. And
- 14:43Speaker 7: what the left tried to do was criminalize masculinity, right.
- 14:48Speaker 7: They tried to put him in prison for doing what
- 14:50Speaker 7: a man is supposed to do, which is say, I
- 14:53Speaker 7: cannot live with myself if I sit here and let
- 14:56Speaker 7: women and children be harmed. And it's really an amazing
- 15:00Speaker 7: moment in our country because it turns out that that
- 15:03Speaker 7: jury said, actually, we will not allow you to criminalize masculinity.
- 15:07Speaker 7: We will show this man that we respect what he did.
- 15:10Speaker 7: And honestly, I think that a lot of the criticism
- 15:13Speaker 7: of Daniel Penny is coming from men, better males, weak
- 15:17Speaker 7: men who know that they don't have the guts and
- 15:20Speaker 7: the courage to stand up and do what's right, and
- 15:23Speaker 7: because of that, they can't stand to see a man
- 15:26Speaker 7: stand up and do what a man is supposed to do.
- 15:29Speaker 3: And it's such a shame your spot on and I
- 15:32Speaker 3: want to play you these comments by the perpetually outraged,
- 15:35Speaker 3: nonsensical Alexandria Ocasio Corte is basically suggesting that subway writers
- 15:40Speaker 3: should be scared of Daniel Penny.
- 15:42Speaker 5: Have a listen if we do.
- 15:45Speaker 10: Not want violence on our subways. And the point of
- 15:48Speaker 10: our justice system is a level of accountability to prevent
- 15:53Speaker 10: a person who help does not have remorse about taking
- 15:57Speaker 10: another person's life.
- 15:58Speaker 7: I mean, even full.
- 16:02Speaker 10: Who have engaged in nanslaughters or have taken a life
- 16:06Speaker 10: accidentally expressed remorse. And so the fact that a person
- 16:10Speaker 10: has made expressed no remorse indicates that there's a risk
- 16:13Speaker 10: of pesthment, that it may happen again.
- 16:16Speaker 3: Oh, unbelievable, botty, How dangerous are these saults of comments?
- 16:21Speaker 7: Well, I think what they wanted was for the trial
- 16:25Speaker 7: to have a chilling effect.
- 16:26Speaker 5: On men standing up for women.
- 16:29Speaker 7: They wanted other people to say, Wow, I'm really not
- 16:31Speaker 7: going to do that if this is how you're going
- 16:33Speaker 7: to get treated for doing that. Honestly, I think it
- 16:36Speaker 7: did have that effect. Even before that, I had noticed,
- 16:39Speaker 7: as someone who rides the subway all the time that
- 16:41Speaker 7: often you will have a situation where a person is
- 16:44Speaker 7: acting in an unfortunate way and the men just look
- 16:46Speaker 7: away and pretend that it's not happening. It's really quite devastating.
- 16:50Speaker 7: So they've had their intended impact, because of course, the
- 16:53Speaker 7: left has been criminalizing masculinity for decades now. I mean,
- 16:56Speaker 7: that's what the Me Too movement was all about. It
- 16:58Speaker 7: was about saying, if you're a man and with masculine urges,
- 17:01Speaker 7: this is.
- 17:02Speaker 5: Now a crime.
- 17:03Speaker 7: And of course now we're having a meeting crisis right
- 17:05Speaker 7: where men feel that they can't even flirt with women,
- 17:08Speaker 7: they can't even approach women in bars because who knows
- 17:10Speaker 7: if that's going to be misconstrued as being harassment or
- 17:13Speaker 7: some sort of crime. And I think that this is
- 17:16Speaker 7: really a rubicon for our country. We're staring down what
- 17:19Speaker 7: the impact of saying that men should be ashamed of
- 17:23Speaker 7: being masculine, ashamed of wanting to provide for women, ashamed
- 17:27Speaker 7: of wanting to protect women. This is a crisis for
- 17:30Speaker 7: our civilization, and I think that people are starting to
- 17:32Speaker 7: wake up.
- 17:33Speaker 5: Absolutely.
- 17:34Speaker 3: It's a shame as well that it's gotten to this
- 17:36Speaker 3: in this day and age.
- 17:37Speaker 5: Now, look, let's move on.
- 17:38Speaker 3: There's been a lot of debate around FBI Director Christopher Ray.
- 17:41Speaker 3: He is reportedly contemplating whether or not to resign. Now
- 17:44Speaker 3: this is because Donald Trump wants to replace Ray, who
- 17:47Speaker 3: is seven years into a ten year term, with Cash Battel.
- 17:51Speaker 3: But yeah, Cash Bartel is a great pick in my view,
- 17:55Speaker 3: But how do you say this now playing out?
- 17:58Speaker 7: Honestly, Donald Trumps every right to appoint the cabinet that
- 18:01Speaker 7: he wants to appoint. The idea that he should be
- 18:04Speaker 7: tethered to appointees who actively undermined him, not just while
- 18:10Speaker 7: he was in office but every minute since, I think
- 18:12Speaker 7: is ludicrous. It's a standard that the Democrats would never
- 18:15Speaker 7: in a million years except for themselves. And yet when
- 18:18Speaker 7: Donald Trump does the most normal, obvious thing, they have
- 18:22Speaker 7: to make a big stink about it and act like
- 18:23Speaker 7: it is him that is breaking the norms. And this
- 18:25Speaker 7: is the important thing to keep in mind when it
- 18:28Speaker 7: comes to the Democrats, every accusation is a confession. When
- 18:33Speaker 7: they say that it is the right that's breaking norms,
- 18:36Speaker 7: it's because they're doing it. When they say that the
- 18:38Speaker 7: right is weaponizing the justice system, it's because they have
- 18:41Speaker 7: spent the last four years doing that. When they say
- 18:44Speaker 7: that the right is peddling misinformation, that is their bread
- 18:48Speaker 7: and butter. Every accusation from these people is a confession.
- 18:52Speaker 3: Absolutely, and they're always caught out in the end. So yeah,
- 18:57Speaker 3: it's just crazy. Now, look, let's talk about Biden pardoning.
- 19:01Speaker 3: He's a crackhead son hunter. And now a report by
- 19:04Speaker 3: political colleges that Biden's senior aides are contemplating issuing preemptive
- 19:08Speaker 3: pardons to a number of officials that they think might
- 19:12Speaker 3: be in the line of fire during Trump's next term. Bartia,
- 19:16Speaker 3: who do you think Biden may possibly help next?
- 19:18Speaker 5: And what does this all mean?
- 19:21Speaker 7: So the names that were floated in the Politico expose
- 19:24Speaker 7: were Liz Cheney, doctor Anthony Fauci, and Adam Schiff. And
- 19:31Speaker 7: what this really says is is that the Democrats believe
- 19:34Speaker 7: that these people and others have committed crimes or things
- 19:38Speaker 7: that are plausibly interpreted as crimes, and that they think
- 19:44Speaker 7: that these crimes should not be investigated. Indeed, it is
- 19:47Speaker 7: to admit on their part that they believe that people
- 19:50Speaker 7: on their side may have done things wrong, but that
- 19:53Speaker 7: they would never ever indict them for them, and that
- 19:56Speaker 7: they're going to preemptively make it impossible for the rule
- 20:00Speaker 7: of law to catch up with these people because they
- 20:03Speaker 7: are on the Democrats side. It is effectively to say
- 20:06Speaker 7: that they do not believe that the rule of law
- 20:09Speaker 7: applies to them. Their side is above the law. That's
- 20:12Speaker 7: what a preemptive pardon is. And if Joe Biden goes
- 20:15Speaker 7: through with this, it will just be so devastating but
- 20:19Speaker 7: also so revealing. I mean, all of their claims to
- 20:23Speaker 7: having the moral high ground will finally and forever be
- 20:26Speaker 7: put to bed. So I really hope that he does
- 20:29Speaker 7: not go through with this, because for them to truly
- 20:32Speaker 7: come out and admit they don't believe in the rule
- 20:34Speaker 7: of law anymore, I mean, at that point all bets
- 20:36Speaker 7: will really be off.
- 20:38Speaker 3: Yeah, certainly. Look, I wouldn't put it past that the
- 20:40Speaker 3: Democrats or Joe Biden. Let's be honest now.
- 20:42Speaker 5: Before we let you go.
- 20:43Speaker 3: This is a fascinating your report which looked at company
- 20:46Speaker 3: statements and your reports and other documents from every fortune
- 20:49Speaker 3: five hundred company, and it found that virtually all of
- 20:52Speaker 3: them have maintained their commitments to DAI diversity, equity and inclusion.
- 20:57Speaker 3: But yeah, here we go again, everyone get to go
- 21:00Speaker 3: in these companies.
- 21:03Speaker 7: It's so amazing. The United States has undergone a political
- 21:06Speaker 7: realignment to where the wealthy are now on the side
- 21:11Speaker 7: of the wokes. So you know, something like seventy five
- 21:15Speaker 7: percent of hedge fund donations that went to political parties
- 21:19Speaker 7: this year went to Democrats. Ninety five percent of donations
- 21:23Speaker 7: from the top three professional managerial companies went to democrats.
- 21:28Speaker 7: Seventy five percent of Silicon Valley donations went to democrats.
- 21:33Speaker 7: Sixty five percent of Americans who make more than five
- 21:36Speaker 7: hundred thousand dollars a year now living Democrat controlled areas,
- 21:40Speaker 7: and so the rich are now the liberals and the
- 21:43Speaker 7: Wokes and the working class. Meanwhile, working class, black men,
- 21:46Speaker 7: working classes, Spanic men, working class men, and women of
- 21:50Speaker 7: all races are now in the Trump camp in the
- 21:52Speaker 7: MAGA movement, and that realignment you're going to keep seeing
- 21:56Speaker 7: over and over and over in things like this where
- 21:59Speaker 7: very wealthy people love DEI, they love Woke, They love
- 22:03Speaker 7: all of this stuff because it lets them feel like
- 22:06Speaker 7: they are the good guys, when actually they are the
- 22:09Speaker 7: rich guys and their interests are very much at odds
- 22:12Speaker 7: with those of the working class.
- 22:14Speaker 3: M hmm all the time, Batia Unga Sagan, I love
- 22:17Speaker 3: your analysis.
- 22:18Speaker 5: Thank you very much for joining me my pleasure.
- 22:21Speaker 7: Thank you so much for having me.
- 22:23Speaker 5: Still to come, Lefties losing it?
- 22:25Speaker 3: Plus Josh Hammer joins us to discuss Pat Coal Kamala's
- 22:28Speaker 3: outrighteous spending habits. Now it is time for lefties losing it,
- 22:42Speaker 3: starting with the Leader of the free world.
- 22:44Speaker 5: Should we do a welfare check on old Joe?
- 22:48Speaker 4: And you know, one of the things that's going on
- 22:50Speaker 4: here is they just turned off my I'm going to
- 22:52Speaker 4: go vote. I lost the electriciity here. Anyway. One of
- 22:58Speaker 4: the things we found is, you know, we invented to
- 23:02Speaker 4: semi the computer chip size of the tip of your
- 23:06Speaker 4: little finger.
- 23:07Speaker 3: Oh no, another public short circuit and public malfunction thanks
- 23:12Speaker 3: to a malfunctioning teleprompter.
- 23:15Speaker 5: To quote Donald Trump, I don't know what he said,
- 23:18Speaker 5: and I don't think he does either. Look, let's give
- 23:21Speaker 5: him the benefit of doubt. Let's see if he can
- 23:23Speaker 5: get back on track.
- 23:24Speaker 4: I can't name a single country in the world that
- 23:27Speaker 4: doesn't think. Put it this way. If we're not leading
- 23:31Speaker 4: the world, who does not a joke? I'm not being
- 23:35Speaker 4: wise guy. If we do not lead the world, what
- 23:40Speaker 4: nation leads the world? Who pulls Europe together? Who tries
- 23:45Speaker 4: to pull the Middle East together harder than any ocean?
- 23:48Speaker 4: What do we do in Africa? We the United States
- 23:53Speaker 4: lead the world?
- 23:54Speaker 3: A yes, welcome back, good to see that creepy the
- 23:58Speaker 3: predatory ASMI whisper, followed by the violent yelling welcome back,
- 24:03Speaker 3: good to have.
- 24:04Speaker 5: You back in the room. And look the cherry.
- 24:06Speaker 3: On top of that weird speech, here comes the final
- 24:10Speaker 3: public hallucination of the day.
- 24:12Speaker 4: Next month, my administration and a new administration will began.
- 24:17Speaker 4: Most economists degree the new administration is going to inherit
- 24:20Speaker 4: a fairly strong economy.
- 24:22Speaker 3: Ah yes, I mean most Americans, on the other hand,
- 24:26Speaker 3: are struggling more than ever. So never mind the cost
- 24:30Speaker 3: of living crisis, the cost of debt, grocery prices are sore,
- 24:34Speaker 3: and you know, all those fun and enjoyable things over.
- 24:37Speaker 5: The last four years.
- 24:39Speaker 3: But perhaps we'll just blame a short circuit again. Now
- 24:43Speaker 3: to this hysterical lunatic panelist over at CNN who fears
- 24:48Speaker 3: Trump deportation when.
- 24:50Speaker 5: They aren't even and a legal immigrant.
- 24:52Speaker 1: I might be deported because I'm a naturalized citizen. And
- 24:56Speaker 1: Stephen Miller, who is Donald Trump's cheap deputty for staff,
- 24:59Speaker 1: has said that they're going to embark I need denaturalization program,
- 25:03Speaker 1: so I could be deported, My citizenship could be taken away,
- 25:07Speaker 1: and my children could be deported because they have birthright citizenship.
- 25:11Speaker 1: So this is not what the country's voted for.
- 25:13Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm not.
- 25:14Speaker 3: Really sure that that's how it's going to work, but
- 25:16Speaker 3: good to see the lunatics over at CNN continuing to
- 25:20Speaker 3: give these lefties voices to spread their misinformation.
- 25:23Speaker 5: It's terrific.
- 25:24Speaker 3: And also, never mind seventy four million Americans voted against
- 25:28Speaker 3: that liberal hysteria. Now, we wouldn't be a lefties without
- 25:33Speaker 3: the bitter banshees over at.
- 25:35Speaker 5: The View who are really struggling for content.
- 25:38Speaker 3: I mean, their constant Trump bashing is old, boring and tiresome.
- 25:43Speaker 5: And so Whoopee's new.
- 25:44Speaker 3: Target is Daniel Penny after he's acquittal, and the way
- 25:48Speaker 3: he's celebrated, he's legal.
- 25:49Speaker 9: Win.
- 25:50Speaker 5: I don't know that seeing them celebrating in a bar
- 25:56Speaker 5: made me comfortable, you know, I mean wielding guy. The
- 26:01Speaker 5: man is dead and maybe just you take the celebration home.
- 26:05Speaker 5: You don't do it outside. But that's just me. Don't
- 26:07Speaker 5: listen to anything I say, Well, we'll bee. We don't normally.
- 26:10Speaker 5: And glad you've finally done some self reflection. Good on you.
- 26:14Speaker 3: Good to see you've taken that feedback on boards.
- 26:17Speaker 5: And now we know. The Left love to claim they are.
- 26:20Speaker 3: The most tolerant of them all, and that tolerance knows
- 26:23Speaker 3: no bounds, but it apparently now extends to alleged murderers.
- 26:27Speaker 3: This time it's Luigi Mangioni, charged with the murder of
- 26:31Speaker 3: United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson.
- 26:33Speaker 11: Okay, so they've arrested our heart coss In. Turns out
- 26:38Speaker 11: his name's Luigi. He's twenty six years old. He's an
- 26:41Speaker 11: Ivy League grad, did his undergrad and masters at Penn
- 26:46Speaker 11: in computer science SMIT tape.
- 26:49Speaker 5: He's a little young from you, but Phoebe sounds like
- 26:54Speaker 5: a real catch, ladies.
- 26:55Speaker 3: And it's truly amazing how the Left tie themselves in
- 26:58Speaker 3: knots of hypocrisy over and over, perpetually outraged at everything.
- 27:03Speaker 5: But no, no, no, they don't wish violence. No violence.
- 27:06Speaker 9: Of course they caught the guy that killed the ux
- 27:09Speaker 9: ceo for such a professional hit. It's kind of weird
- 27:13Speaker 9: that the gunman didn't leave the US. The guy that
- 27:16Speaker 9: reported it was a McDonald's worker.
- 27:19Speaker 5: I would never advocate.
- 27:20Speaker 9: The violence on their page, right, it would be pretty
- 27:25Speaker 9: funny if we'd be out of him and then when
- 27:28Speaker 9: he went to the hospital, that if he was out
- 27:30Speaker 9: of network and had to pay a huge bill.
- 27:32Speaker 10: I think that would be funny.
- 27:33Speaker 3: As I said, the tolerance of the left knows no bounds.
- 27:38Speaker 5: It's so incredible.
- 27:39Speaker 3: They're even offering themselves up and making alleged murders all
- 27:43Speaker 3: cutesy wootsie.
- 27:45Speaker 12: This guy that did the assassination did it in a
- 27:49Speaker 12: really sexy way, to be honest, and.
- 27:53Speaker 5: It's gonna be it's.
- 27:54Speaker 12: Going to be important, like the fact that he's hot
- 27:58Speaker 12: and that he had while he did this. The silencer
- 28:04Speaker 12: and the revolver has been described as like from mafios Vives,
- 28:11Speaker 12: which is cool.
- 28:11Speaker 5: He just happens to be stunning.
- 28:15Speaker 3: Cool, mafioso, sexy vibe with the assassins.
- 28:19Speaker 5: It's all fun and games on left, he's losing it.
- 28:22Speaker 3: Joining me now is Newsweek Senior editor at Large and
- 28:25Speaker 3: Article three Projects Senior Counsel, Josh Hammer.
- 28:28Speaker 5: Josh, good to see you.
- 28:29Speaker 3: I want to start by talking about Pete hag Seth,
- 28:32Speaker 3: of course, Trump's pick for Defense secretary.
- 28:34Speaker 5: Now he's been.
- 28:35Speaker 3: Accused of sexual assault and alcohol abuse, but Donald Trump
- 28:38Speaker 3: is sticking by him. You wrote an article for The
- 28:41Speaker 3: Daily Mail saying be warned, a secret Democrat plot to
- 28:45Speaker 3: sabotage Trump is already underway. The Pete hag Seth, which
- 28:48Speaker 3: hunt is just the beginning. Josh, why do you think
- 28:51Speaker 3: the Democrats fear Pete hegg Seth and the rest of
- 28:54Speaker 3: Donald Trump's picks.
- 28:57Speaker 2: Well, Pete Hegseth in particular, are they fear because he
- 29:00Speaker 2: is someone who is not business as usual at the Pentagon. Now,
- 29:03Speaker 2: you look a lot of people on the right here
- 29:06Speaker 2: in America don't like to criticize the Pentagon because you
- 29:08Speaker 2: don't want to be seen as in any way going
- 29:10Speaker 2: against the military. The reality is that the Depentagon, the Department,
- 29:14Speaker 2: the Department of Defense here has an incredible amount of fat.
- 29:17Speaker 2: There was just an incredible amount of woke excess in
- 29:19Speaker 2: the budget there. It is a very very expensive byzantine
- 29:22Speaker 2: labor and bureocracy that has a lot that should be
- 29:26Speaker 2: trimmed there. And Pete Hegseth is the kind of guy.
- 29:28Speaker 2: He's not a company man. He's not someone who came
- 29:30Speaker 2: up through the ranks of the Pentagon.
- 29:31Speaker 3: There.
- 29:32Speaker 2: He's a warrior. He's someone who's served in the wars
- 29:34Speaker 2: in Iraq and Afghanistan. At nine to eleven he was
- 29:36Speaker 2: awarded multiple Bronze Stars for a service there. He's someone
- 29:39Speaker 2: who's an actual viable threat to the defense contractors, to
- 29:43Speaker 2: the Boeings, to the north of Grummins of the world.
- 29:46Speaker 2: People like that there. So you know, if your livelihood
- 29:48Speaker 2: in Washington, d c. Depends upon access to the Pentagon,
- 29:52Speaker 2: upon access to arm shipments and things like that, there,
- 29:54Speaker 2: he's an actual threat to that. But what the Left,
- 29:57Speaker 2: what they've been doing when it comes to Hegseth Anika
- 29:59Speaker 2: is slimeball, gutter politics of the very most sordid worst
- 30:04Speaker 2: orb is the breck Havana playbook all over again. Back
- 30:07Speaker 2: in twenty eighteen, when Brett Kavanaugh was nominated to the
- 30:09Speaker 2: US Supreme Court, he said he was a serial gang rapist.
- 30:13Speaker 2: They threw out five thousand years of civilizational norms about
- 30:16Speaker 2: innocential proven guilty to doing the exact same thing.
- 30:18Speaker 1: Here.
- 30:19Speaker 2: NBC News had this long article, completely unsourced, lots of
- 30:23Speaker 2: people anonymous. No one on the record is saying he's
- 30:25Speaker 2: an alcoholic, he's a this, he's that he has a
- 30:27Speaker 2: rape allegation in there. It is imperative that Donald Trump
- 30:30Speaker 2: not yield an inch. You cannot let these tactics succeed.
- 30:34Speaker 2: Otherwise they just won't stop. You gotta nip it in
- 30:36Speaker 2: the butt right now before he gets back in the
- 30:38Speaker 2: office in January twentieth.
- 30:40Speaker 5: Oh, absolutely, now is the time.
- 30:42Speaker 3: And I want to show you these very contrasting media
- 30:44Speaker 3: reports too, because this speaks volumes. Here you have a
- 30:48Speaker 3: news article from when Joe Biden awarded the Bronze Star
- 30:52Speaker 3: to an intelligence analyst. The Washington Post called it one
- 30:55Speaker 3: of the army's most prestigious awards, but when Pete Hegseth
- 30:59Speaker 3: earned two of them, the Post said, actually they're pretty common.
- 31:04Speaker 3: I mean, Josh, this bias reporting. It actually also denigrades
- 31:09Speaker 3: the entire military.
- 31:13Speaker 2: Totally. I mean, they're basically saying that anyone who is
- 31:18Speaker 2: a Republican, anyone who is vaguely politically right of center,
- 31:21Speaker 2: if you are awarded a bronze star. And by the way,
- 31:23Speaker 2: last I checked the majority of people serving in the military,
- 31:26Speaker 2: majority of veterans here in the US, I'm pretty sure
- 31:28Speaker 2: that they're Republicans, not Democrats. So you're, basically, as you said,
- 31:31Speaker 2: denigrating a majority of the United States military. You're by definition,
- 31:35Speaker 2: as a matter of sheer statistics, you are denigrating the
- 31:38Speaker 2: majority of those who have been awarded bronze stars, who
- 31:40Speaker 2: have been courageous in combat, who have tried to save
- 31:43Speaker 2: their fellow marines and soldiers and midshipmen and so forth.
- 31:47Speaker 10: There.
- 31:47Speaker 2: It's disgraceful, But you know, look the mainstream media. Every
- 31:51Speaker 2: time you think they can't go any lower here in America,
- 31:53Speaker 2: they find some new way to one up themselves and
- 31:55Speaker 2: go even lower scale. But ultimately the joke is on
- 31:58Speaker 2: them because of all the major institute in America, the
- 32:01Speaker 2: corporate media has I believe the these like second or
- 32:04Speaker 2: third or lowest approval rating of any institution. I think
- 32:06Speaker 2: Congress is number one most unpopular. The media is like
- 32:09Speaker 2: second or third their popularity according to gallop you. According
- 32:13Speaker 2: to all the major public pols here, their popularity is
- 32:15Speaker 2: the lowest it has ever been in modern recorded history.
- 32:18Speaker 2: So I guess we'll see what stunt they try to
- 32:20Speaker 2: pull next there. But you know, the band news for
- 32:22Speaker 2: them is I think Pete had to pen news that
- 32:24Speaker 2: he's going to get confirmed Nika.
- 32:26Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 32:26Speaker 3: Look, it's certainly shaping up that way. I'd be watching
- 32:29Speaker 3: that one closely. Now let's move on to this brainwashing
- 32:32Speaker 3: happening in schools. I was quite shocked to read that
- 32:35Speaker 3: a Pennsylvania school teacher told her first graders that boys
- 32:41Speaker 3: can be girls and parents can guess their kids gender wrong. Now,
- 32:45Speaker 3: a federal court has subsequently vindicated these parents, finding that
- 32:49Speaker 3: the school district violated the parents' constitutional rights by refusing
- 32:53Speaker 3: to give these families the right to opt their children
- 32:56Speaker 3: out of such lessons.
- 32:58Speaker 5: Josh Trump has been quite vocal about this. He wants
- 33:02Speaker 5: to stamp it out.
- 33:02Speaker 3: But what can he do to do that because this
- 33:05Speaker 3: is real woke nonsense that he's corrupting young kids.
- 33:11Speaker 2: So, first of all, the author of this out been
- 33:12Speaker 2: in the Wall Street Journal, Maxiden, good friend and a
- 33:14Speaker 2: frequent co author of my own. So I'm very happy
- 33:16Speaker 2: that he got this piece in the Wall Street Journal
- 33:18Speaker 2: and that we're talking about this this very important issue. Look,
- 33:20Speaker 2: transgenderism in America, Danika. It's like it's like an eighty
- 33:24Speaker 2: twenty issue. I mean, this is this is not a
- 33:26Speaker 2: fifty to fifty jumpall issue.
- 33:28Speaker 7: You know.
- 33:28Speaker 2: This is not like a pro Second Amendment, pro gun
- 33:31Speaker 2: control fifty fifty swap. It's not a pro life, pro
- 33:34Speaker 2: abortion kind of thing there. Now, the American people are
- 33:36Speaker 2: overwhelmingly on this side that there are exactly two genders
- 33:39Speaker 2: and we know exactly what they are one because God
- 33:42Speaker 2: says so in the Bible too. Because we're not stupid
- 33:44Speaker 2: and we just see people, we can reasonably discern that
- 33:48Speaker 2: there is male and there is female, and that is
- 33:50Speaker 2: what exists, by the way, not just for human beings,
- 33:52Speaker 2: but for the entirety of the animal kingdom there. This
- 33:54Speaker 2: is an issue that Donald Trump, by the way, helped
- 33:56Speaker 2: win the actual presidential election on. It was that ad
- 33:59Speaker 2: that the true campaign ran, where they had Charlemagne, the
- 34:02Speaker 2: God of all people, saying, oh my god, what happened
- 34:04Speaker 2: to Kamala Harris? She came out in favor of taxpayer
- 34:07Speaker 2: subsize support from gender mutilation surgeries for wait illegal alien
- 34:12Speaker 2: inmates in prison. And apparently, according to Kamala Harris internal polling,
- 34:16Speaker 2: that single Adinika shifted to the national elector at two
- 34:19Speaker 2: point seven points, which makes one of the most successful
- 34:22Speaker 2: ads the entire modern history of American presidential politics. So
- 34:26Speaker 2: Trump actually won partially on this issue. I am very
- 34:29Speaker 2: optimistic about what he might be able to do in
- 34:31Speaker 2: office on it, again, not just from an executive order perspective,
- 34:34Speaker 2: but with Congress as well, because again, not a fifty
- 34:37Speaker 2: to fifty issue. This really is, I think an eighty
- 34:39Speaker 2: twenty issue right now.
- 34:40Speaker 5: Yeah, look, that's interesting.
- 34:41Speaker 3: But you're right though, I mean, this is what Donald
- 34:43Speaker 3: Trump was indeed part of the reason why he was elected.
- 34:46Speaker 3: So I just think it's shocking, though, what's happening in schools. Now,
- 34:49Speaker 3: let's talk about Kamala Harris. I've got to say she
- 34:52Speaker 3: is the cash cow. It's been revealed she blew one
- 34:55Speaker 3: point five billion US dollars in just fifteen weeks. Josh,
- 35:00Speaker 3: how on earth did the campaign spend that much money
- 35:03Speaker 3: during the election.
- 35:06Speaker 2: I have no idea. I actually have no idea what
- 35:09Speaker 2: the answer is. I suspect that Kamala Harris's donors do
- 35:11Speaker 2: not know what the answer is too, but I suspect
- 35:13Speaker 2: that they're having a rather large size of buyer's remorse
- 35:17Speaker 2: at this particular point. You know, I saw, at least
- 35:21Speaker 2: at one point that they built her an impromptu podcast
- 35:24Speaker 2: set for the so called Call Your Daddy podcast. If
- 35:27Speaker 2: I'm not mistaken, I think the cost of that impromptu
- 35:29Speaker 2: one time set was like one hundred thousand dollars. And
- 35:32Speaker 2: things are so bad for Kamala Harris that the host
- 35:34Speaker 2: of that podcast, of this very left wing podcast, to
- 35:37Speaker 2: Call Your Daddy podcast, actually said, oh wait, my permanent
- 35:40Speaker 2: set doesn't even cost one hundred thousand dollars. What the
- 35:42Speaker 2: heck are you doing there? So, I mean, I have
- 35:44Speaker 2: no idea who is controlling the purse strings with this
- 35:46Speaker 2: particular campaign, But this is going to go down as
- 35:48Speaker 2: one of the most profligate political campaigns in the entire
- 35:51Speaker 2: history of this country, which, by the way, is very
- 35:53Speaker 2: fitting because this current administration, the Bien Harris administration, in
- 35:56Speaker 2: which she has served as the nominal putative vice president,
- 36:00Speaker 2: also goes down history as one of the most profligate
- 36:02Speaker 2: administrations in American history.
- 36:04Speaker 3: Well, actually, I just want to play our viewers that
- 36:06Speaker 3: particular line from the host of Caller Daddy, because I
- 36:09Speaker 3: think it's important.
- 36:10Speaker 5: Here was what that host said, The Harris campaign spent
- 36:13Speaker 5: like one hundred thousand dollars I did about this. It's hilarious.
- 36:16Speaker 3: Build the studio not true to make it look like
- 36:20Speaker 3: it was the studio that you used in La.
- 36:24Speaker 13: My studio that is gorgeous in Los Angeles doesn't even
- 36:28Speaker 13: cost six figures. So I don't know how cardboard walls
- 36:32Speaker 13: could cost six figures.
- 36:34Speaker 1: But but do you think they did that?
- 36:36Speaker 5: I mean you should absolutely not. With love to them.
- 36:39Speaker 13: Oh my god, it was gorgeous, but like it wasn't
- 36:41Speaker 13: that nice. It wasn't like gorgeous marble.
- 36:45Speaker 5: Like, No, that was not six figures. You know, Judge.
- 36:48Speaker 3: What I find funny about this is that Caller Daddy
- 36:51Speaker 3: they thought, oh, well, we've got this huge coup. We've
- 36:53Speaker 3: we've got Carmela Harrison. Now she's lost, and now the
- 36:57Speaker 3: host is coming out slamming this decision to build a set.
- 37:01Speaker 3: I mean, no wonder voters could see right through Kamala Harris.
- 37:05Speaker 2: But the fact that she went on that show in
- 37:07Speaker 2: the first place is everything that you need to know
- 37:09Speaker 2: about why Kamala Harris lost as a candidate. You know,
- 37:11Speaker 2: she was not trying to reach the actual swing voter.
- 37:15Speaker 2: She was not trying to reach the factory workers in
- 37:17Speaker 2: Michigan or the people who are farmers who are tilling
- 37:21Speaker 2: the soil in a place like North Carolina or Georgia.
- 37:23Speaker 2: She's trying to reach this blue check social media echo chamber. It's, frankly,
- 37:28Speaker 2: the exact same reason that she didn't even make it
- 37:30Speaker 2: to the first in the nation Iowa caucus, is back
- 37:33Speaker 2: in the Democratic primary all the way back in twenty
- 37:35Speaker 2: twenty because she has been surrounded for basically her entire
- 37:39Speaker 2: political career, as far as I can tell, by this
- 37:42Speaker 2: ridiculous left wing echo chamber that is telling her to
- 37:45Speaker 2: go all in on all the intersectional identity politicises, go
- 37:49Speaker 2: all in on feminism, on transgenderism, on open borders, on
- 37:53Speaker 2: all these crazy things there. Otherwise, how can you possibly
- 37:57Speaker 2: think that it is a good idea to go on
- 37:59Speaker 2: this podcast or the episode that was on apparently before
- 38:02Speaker 2: her episode was about the art of a sexual act
- 38:05Speaker 2: that I will not name that of respect for the
- 38:06Speaker 2: viewers of this particular program, but that is the kind
- 38:08Speaker 2: of affair that is the kind of content, the R
- 38:11Speaker 2: rated content, we would say here in the States, that
- 38:13Speaker 2: is the kind of content that is on the call
- 38:14Speaker 2: her Daddy's show, and the fact that she thought it
- 38:16Speaker 2: would be a good idea for the sitting vice president
- 38:19Speaker 2: of the United States to go on that particular show.
- 38:21Speaker 2: It's ultimately insulting to the American people, which is why
- 38:24Speaker 2: it's why, frankly that we responded in the election that
- 38:26Speaker 2: the way we did.
- 38:27Speaker 3: Yeah goes on a sex podcast, thinks that she's going
- 38:30Speaker 3: to have great success.
- 38:31Speaker 5: Go figure. Unbelievable, Josh.
- 38:33Speaker 3: Now look, black Karmala Harris staffers have accused the campaign
- 38:37Speaker 3: leadership of mistreatment and outright racial discrimination. This was part
- 38:41Speaker 3: of an explosive article in The New York Times, which
- 38:44Speaker 3: also revealed that the campaign leadership dismissed concerns that the
- 38:48Speaker 3: Democrats were taking their base for granted. Josh, how do
- 38:52Speaker 3: you read this? I mean, did the Harris campaign completely
- 38:55Speaker 3: blow it?
- 38:58Speaker 2: Well, the blew it for multiple reasons. But you know,
- 39:01Speaker 2: you know, my takeaway from this election is that it
- 39:04Speaker 2: was not that Joe Biden was to blame for their loss.
- 39:06Speaker 2: It was not that Kamala Harris was to blame for
- 39:08Speaker 2: the loss. Rather, I think that the Democratic Party as
- 39:11Speaker 2: an institution is really what is to blame for the
- 39:14Speaker 2: fact that Democrats lost this election. And what I mean
- 39:16Speaker 2: by that is because, as we were just saying, they
- 39:19Speaker 2: put themselves in a position of their own volition, of
- 39:21Speaker 2: their own free will, where they became the party of
- 39:24Speaker 2: this very loud, very vocal, but ultimately tiny and statistically
- 39:29Speaker 2: insignificant portion of the broader American electorate. They bat themselves
- 39:32Speaker 2: into a corner because their consultants, the people on the campaigns,
- 39:36Speaker 2: they have all these stupid young millennials with their college
- 39:38Speaker 2: degrees and are saying, oh, all the all the all
- 39:40Speaker 2: the rage these days is that you can be a woman,
- 39:43Speaker 2: if you're a man, if you want to. All the
- 39:44Speaker 2: raids these days is compassion for illegal aliens. Don't don't
- 39:47Speaker 2: worry about the drugs, the fentanyl trapping in here. That
- 39:50Speaker 2: ultimately is why they lost. And again I have seen
- 39:53Speaker 2: no indication since the election, none that they have learned
- 39:56Speaker 2: any of the right lessons. Frankly, as someone who wishes
- 39:58Speaker 2: of nothing but the worst, so I'm pretty happy about that.
- 40:01Speaker 3: Yeah, completely a grand thing. We're all with you here
- 40:05Speaker 3: as well. Now I've got to say, Josh, this really
- 40:08Speaker 3: is the gift that keeps on giving, because have a
- 40:10Speaker 3: look at this snub that Joe and Jill Biden gave Carmela.
- 40:14Speaker 3: Have a look, Oh, Josh, they can't even look at it.
- 40:44Speaker 3: They can't even look. You can see that there's tension there.
- 40:49Speaker 2: Yeah, you can cut the tension in that room with
- 40:51Speaker 2: a butter knife. Frankly, I mean, Joe Biden is clearly
- 40:55Speaker 2: still peeved. Actually blame him. And I don't think Joe
- 40:58Speaker 2: Biden's particularly good person. I think he's been bad person
- 41:00Speaker 2: actually for basically his entire political career, going back at
- 41:03Speaker 2: least as far as his tag team with Ted Kennedy
- 41:06Speaker 2: to bork Robert Borke during the nineteen eighty seven US
- 41:08Speaker 2: Supreme Court confirmation fight. But despite the fact that he's that,
- 41:11Speaker 2: he is not a good person. You know, what happened
- 41:14Speaker 2: to him in many ways was actually quite wrong because
- 41:17Speaker 2: he was coued by his own running man. He was
- 41:20Speaker 2: cooed by Kamala Harris. I mean, he was cooed by
- 41:23Speaker 2: the very person that he extended an olive branch to
- 41:26Speaker 2: and putting here on the tick in the first place
- 41:28Speaker 2: back in twenty By the way, It's not just Kamala Harris,
- 41:30Speaker 2: it's also Barack Obama, for whom Joe Biden was the
- 41:32Speaker 2: Vice President of the United States. Barack Obama along with
- 41:35Speaker 2: Nancy Pelosi and then Kamala Harris as well, but really
- 41:38Speaker 2: Barack Obama probably above fall. I mean, he was the
- 41:40Speaker 2: number one ring leader here. So Joe Biden, I mean,
- 41:42Speaker 2: talk about someone who's been in politics for a half century,
- 41:45Speaker 2: literally could not be going out with more of a
- 41:47Speaker 2: whimper as opposed to a bank. Donald Trump's been in France,
- 41:50Speaker 2: He's been making the rounds, He's got the red carpet
- 41:52Speaker 2: treatment there. Do people even remember that Joe Biden is
- 41:55Speaker 2: technically the president of the United States?
- 41:57Speaker 5: From now?
- 41:57Speaker 2: Frankly, being here in America, we don't really hear much
- 42:00Speaker 2: about him. And again, he can't get out of office
- 42:02Speaker 2: soon enough. But already at this point, no one around
- 42:04Speaker 2: the world is treating him like he's the president.
- 42:07Speaker 5: He's almost the forgotten president. I've got to say, though.
- 42:10Speaker 3: January twenty can't come soon enough. From Josh Hammer, great
- 42:13Speaker 3: to have you on, thanks for joining me.
- 42:15Speaker 2: Thank you so much.
- 42:16Speaker 5: Still to come, Jay Z, Beyonce and their daughter put.
- 42:19Speaker 3: On a unite in Front as he faces assault allegations.
- 42:23Speaker 3: Angela Mollard will join us with all the celebrity and
- 42:25Speaker 3: royal news next welcome back to the program. Joining me
- 42:37Speaker 3: now is News Corp columnist Angela Mollard. Angela great to
- 42:40Speaker 3: be with you, Thank you for joining me. Look, I
- 42:42Speaker 3: want to start with Jay.
- 42:44Speaker 5: Z because he has made quite.
- 42:46Speaker 3: A surprise appearance, a rare appearance at that with his
- 42:50Speaker 3: wife Beyonce and their daughter Blue Ivy carver A Kata
- 42:54Speaker 3: on the red carpet. This was for the Wilfussa premiere.
- 42:58Speaker 3: But this was only a couple of after allegations of
- 43:02Speaker 3: rape against him emerged. It's alleged he raped a thirteen
- 43:06Speaker 3: year old with P Diddy back in two thousand, acclaim
- 43:09Speaker 3: which he denies. Were you surprised that they put on
- 43:12Speaker 3: this United Front so soon after these allegations were revealed.
- 43:16Speaker 8: Very much so, because he knows that this will drive commentary. Look,
- 43:19Speaker 8: they have employed it damage limitation specialists and Beyonce and
- 43:23Speaker 8: he together are driving against this allegation really firmly. He's
- 43:27Speaker 8: made a number of statements, including that he was blackmailed
- 43:31Speaker 8: by the lawyer of this woman.
- 43:33Speaker 5: The lawyer, of.
- 43:34Speaker 8: Course came back and said, we didn't ask for a
- 43:36Speaker 8: cent of money, We just wanted some mediation around it.
- 43:39Speaker 8: But you have to remember that jac and Beyonce, they
- 43:42Speaker 8: are an empire. They are at the top of the
- 43:44Speaker 8: entertainment establishment in America. They are friends with the Obamas.
- 43:48Speaker 8: They of course have met Kofian and their former UN
- 43:51Speaker 8: Secretary General. They are at the top elite of American entertainment.
- 43:56Speaker 8: So for this to come out, this is a different
- 43:59Speaker 8: sort of you know, stratosphere of fame among the rap community.
- 44:03Speaker 8: I mean, we always know that the rap community, there's
- 44:05Speaker 8: the bad boys in it. And of course jay Z
- 44:08Speaker 8: came from Brooklyn where he was a small time crack dealer,
- 44:11Speaker 8: but he's regarded and sees himself very much as untouchable.
- 44:16Speaker 8: And now, of course this allegation is against him. He's
- 44:20Speaker 8: certainly coming at hard and fast. They made the comment
- 44:23Speaker 8: that they wanted to support their daughter at the event.
- 44:25Speaker 8: Of course, shef stars in this movie, but it seems
- 44:27Speaker 8: to be the optics on it.
- 44:29Speaker 5: Are so much greater them, just so much greater.
- 44:31Speaker 3: You're right, they are at the top of the empire
- 44:33Speaker 3: really when it comes to the entertainment world. So watching
- 44:35Speaker 3: this with great interest, that's for sure. Now, look, let's
- 44:38Speaker 3: move on to the royals. Donald Trump, He's made a
- 44:41Speaker 3: bit of a confession about a chat that he had
- 44:43Speaker 3: with Prince William when the pair met the other day,
- 44:46Speaker 3: and he said that the Prince confided in him about
- 44:51Speaker 3: King Charles and Princess Kate's ongoing health battles, of course,
- 44:54Speaker 3: a diagnosis with cancer. Now, he said, I asked him
- 44:58Speaker 3: about his wife, and he said she's doing well.
- 45:01Speaker 5: I asked him about his father, and his father is
- 45:03Speaker 5: fighting very hard. He loves his father, he loves his wife.
- 45:07Speaker 5: It's sad, Angela.
- 45:09Speaker 3: This seems to be the first time we've been given
- 45:11Speaker 3: a real glimpse as to how bad the situation is.
- 45:17Speaker 8: I think this is really significant what Trump's come out
- 45:19Speaker 8: and said. Look, we could say it could have had
- 45:21Speaker 8: some Trump top spenn. He loves a bit of top
- 45:23Speaker 8: spin on things, But I don't think he wants to
- 45:25Speaker 8: damage his reputation and relationship with the royal family, who
- 45:28Speaker 8: we know he adores by giving it any extra emphasis.
- 45:32Speaker 8: So I think that there's every likelihood that this has
- 45:35Speaker 8: been accurately reported, in which case, what it suggests to
- 45:39Speaker 8: me is that the King isn't particularly well. He could
- 45:42Speaker 8: be more sick than we think he could be fighting
- 45:44Speaker 8: this ongoing battle. Well, of course we know that Catherine's
- 45:48Speaker 8: cancer treatment has finished because she told us it has,
- 45:51Speaker 8: but there's been no indication that the King's cancer treatment
- 45:53Speaker 8: he has finished. So I think this is the very
- 45:55Speaker 8: first time we've got any kind of idea from anyone
- 45:59Speaker 8: of status that this might be a harder battle than
- 46:03Speaker 8: we first anticipated for the King.
- 46:06Speaker 3: Yeah, and then notoriously private, we've never known anything about it,
- 46:09Speaker 3: so to hear this it is quite jarring. Now angler
- 46:12Speaker 3: a Queen Camilla's son, This is Tom Parker Bowls. He
- 46:15Speaker 3: will be attending his very first royal Christmas this year.
- 46:18Speaker 3: But meanwhile the King has excluded his own son Harry
- 46:21Speaker 3: and wife Meghan. So another year without Harry and Meghan.
- 46:25Speaker 5: No surprises. Oh look, it's interesting, isn't it.
- 46:27Speaker 8: We're five years after Megsid and everybody's looking at is
- 46:30Speaker 8: that has this worked? And on some levels it's worked.
- 46:32Speaker 8: They've got a bit more freedom, that sort of thing.
- 46:34Speaker 8: But he doesn't have a relationship with his father at
- 46:37Speaker 8: a time when his father is sick. He doesn't have
- 46:39Speaker 8: a relationship with his sister in law at a time
- 46:41Speaker 8: that she was sick. His children are now five and three.
- 46:44Speaker 8: This is the age that Harry will remember what it
- 46:46Speaker 8: was like to be around family. He of course doesn't
- 46:49Speaker 8: have extended family with Meghan because she doesn't talk to
- 46:52Speaker 8: half of her family, will most of them, So the
- 46:55Speaker 8: Royal family this will be as much as Harry and
- 46:57Speaker 8: Meghan try to sort of spend the diet on this
- 47:00Speaker 8: that they love their freedom and that you know, we
- 47:02Speaker 8: just saw that the last week. The fact is this
- 47:05Speaker 8: will be a time that concentrates his mind that he
- 47:07Speaker 8: is very much on the outer of the family. As
- 47:09Speaker 8: to the point about Tom Particker Bowles, I think this
- 47:11Speaker 8: very much suggests, as we were just talking about, that
- 47:14Speaker 8: the King's health could be worse than we think. The
- 47:16Speaker 8: fact that Tom has said he's going to Christmas. In
- 47:19Speaker 8: the past he's usually spent it with his sister Camilla's
- 47:22Speaker 8: sometimes in the afternoon, has driven from Sandringham down to
- 47:25Speaker 8: London to spend it with her children and children and grandchildren.
- 47:29Speaker 8: But this year she's made this plaintive approach to her
- 47:32Speaker 8: son saying please come for Christmas. Now, that suggests to
- 47:34Speaker 8: me there's a reason behind that. I want you here
- 47:37Speaker 8: this year. It could be that it's just been a
- 47:39Speaker 8: tricky year. She's of course just got over pneumonia, the
- 47:42Speaker 8: King's been sick. But it also might speak a lot
- 47:45Speaker 8: more to what might be going on behind the scenes
- 47:48Speaker 8: for this family and their need to make sure that
- 47:51Speaker 8: extended family are gathered together.
- 47:53Speaker 3: It sounds like she needs some support definitely. Now before
- 47:55Speaker 3: we let you go, Prince Harry is set to face
- 47:57Speaker 3: up to four days of questioning in UK's High This
- 48:00Speaker 3: is of course as part of his upcoming lawsuit against
- 48:03Speaker 3: the publisher of The Sun over allegations of unlawful information gathering.
- 48:07Speaker 5: How do you see this playing out now? Well, this
- 48:09Speaker 5: is down for four days.
- 48:10Speaker 8: When he went against Mirror Group the year before last,
- 48:13Speaker 8: that was only a day and a half of evidence,
- 48:15Speaker 8: so four days of evidence. Of course, he won the
- 48:18Speaker 8: case before this has become a course s let for him.
- 48:20Speaker 8: He is driving this through. He of course has the
- 48:23Speaker 8: Male Group newspapers in twenty twenty six, whereas you know
- 48:27Speaker 8: others have settled out of court. Harry is very much
- 48:30Speaker 8: pushing his vendetta against the press forward every time. Of course,
- 48:33Speaker 8: he was challenged on a lot of issues during the
- 48:36Speaker 8: Mirror group case, this one will be the same. And
- 48:39Speaker 8: as the judge said in the last case, this was
- 48:42Speaker 8: fraught with conflict. These cases, it was a hugely toxic battle.
- 48:47Speaker 5: So look, he likes it. He seems to want to
- 48:50Speaker 5: do it.
- 48:50Speaker 8: I can't see that it's giving him any peace. But
- 48:53Speaker 8: he has a cause to fight.
- 48:54Speaker 3: I mean, it's a lot of a battle to keep
- 48:56Speaker 3: going through the courts. This must be exhausting, but that's
- 48:58Speaker 3: what he wants to do. All those flights are the
- 49:01Speaker 3: costs of the flights, but not to see the family
- 49:03Speaker 3: of course.
- 49:04Speaker 5: Angela Molla'd good to be with you. Thank you so
- 49:05Speaker 5: much for joining me on the show this evening. Well
- 49:08Speaker 5: that's it for me. Up next is news Night. Good Night,
