  Speaker 2: This is the Reader Panekey Show.

  Speaker 3: Good evening and welcome to the Reader Panekey Show.
• 0:12
  Speaker 4: Coming up tonight, the Victorian government's attack against property investors
• 0:16
  Speaker 4: intensifies with crippling Lantax hikes and a new task force.
• 0:21
  Speaker 4: Another car manufacturer, rethinks their electric vehicle strategy.
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: Propsy Im Primer.
• 0:26
  Speaker 4: Will join me shortly to discuss that the Biden administration
• 0:30
  Speaker 4: releases an official message of condolence for the butcher of Tehran,
• 0:35
  Speaker 4: Josh Hammer. With the latest lunacy from the US and
• 0:39
  Speaker 4: talking about left is losing it, these ladies are having
• 0:43
  Speaker 4: a bad day. Let's now bring in see writer of
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: the Herald Sun, Patrick Carlin and Patrick with the Queensland
• 1:05
  Speaker 4: state election coming up in October, and seems Stephen Miles
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: has learned giggling like a schoolgirl won't keep him in power.
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: Tough immigration policies might and he can read a poll.
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: As well as anyone.
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: And immigration is shaping up to a critical issue at
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: both federal and state level. Stephen Miles is backing Peter
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: Dutton's call for a severe cut in migration numbers.
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: This has surprised many, but not me.
• 1:30
  Speaker 4: I think Stephen Miles is a savvy politician and he
• 1:33
  Speaker 4: knows what Queenslanders want to hear.
• 1:35
  Speaker 1: Absolutely.
• 1:36
  Speaker 5: Look, I think if there wasn't a labor monopoly across
• 1:40
  Speaker 5: the States, you'd hear more state premiers talking like this,
• 1:42
  Speaker 5: wouldn't you. Yeah, you can't. You can't make two plus
• 1:46
  Speaker 5: two egal three. And that's what's happening with this migration
• 1:49
  Speaker 5: policy at the moment, where you're getting a lot more
• 1:51
  Speaker 5: people coming in than houses being built.
• 1:54
  Speaker 4: But yet they tell us it's not adding to the
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: housing crisis.
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: Of course, of it defies logic.
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: Of course it is.
• 2:02
  Speaker 5: And look, I think it's important that Peter Dutton's sort
• 2:04
  Speaker 5: of brought this debate to the table. It's such an
• 2:07
  Speaker 5: important debate, isn't it. I mean, it defines who we
• 2:10
  Speaker 5: are and how we live, the number of migrants we
• 2:13
  Speaker 5: have and there's not enough houses at the mart.
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: It's a very simple equation.
• 2:17
  Speaker 3: It absolutely is. And the polling on this is clear.
• 2:20
  Speaker 4: We know that overwhelming majority you want to cut to
• 2:23
  Speaker 4: migration numbers, and it's the will of the majority has
• 2:27
  Speaker 4: been completely ignored and by both sides of politics for
• 2:31
  Speaker 4: many years.
• 2:32
  Speaker 3: It must be said.
• 2:32
  Speaker 4: It hasn't just been labor labors ramped up the numbers
• 2:35
  Speaker 4: to record amounts, but they were pretty high under coalition
• 2:39
  Speaker 4: governments too.
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: Absolutely, and I think, look, we suffer. We all suffer
• 2:42
  Speaker 5: for the fact that if somebody suggests cutting migration, they
• 2:46
  Speaker 5: risk being labeled as racist or anti multicultural or whatever.
• 2:50
  Speaker 5: It's such an important debate, it's something that we need
• 2:53
  Speaker 5: to be talking about, and we need to be a
• 2:55
  Speaker 5: cross in a big way.
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: And like you say, I think.
• 2:57
  Speaker 5: There is a silent majority who sort of do wonder
• 3:00
  Speaker 5: we're an island nation.
• 3:01
  Speaker 4: That's one of the benefits is we should be able
• 3:03
  Speaker 4: to have a population policy that we determine this is
• 3:07
  Speaker 4: our ideal population, this is where we want to be,
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: and then we set policies to achieve that. Most countries
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: where they've got poorest borders can't do that. Now, let's
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: go to our home state of Victoria, and the state
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: government reliance on property taxes is seeing land tax rates
• 3:24
  Speaker 4: sow to unsustainable levels for many families and landlords who are.
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: Preparing to sell up Patrick.
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: We can expect to see rents going up higher as
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: the rental pool becomes more a more constraint. Because some
• 3:40
  Speaker 4: of the examples we're seeing and I think what some
• 3:42
  Speaker 4: examples from the Herald Sun today, one property owner reveals
• 3:45
  Speaker 4: his family was hit with a forty three thousand dollar
• 3:49
  Speaker 4: bill for a little beach shack they've got down in
• 3:52
  Speaker 4: Safety Beach, about an hour and a half from Melbourne,
• 3:54
  Speaker 4: which has been in his wife's family since the forties.
• 3:57
  Speaker 4: He says, since twenty twenty one, the land tax on
• 4:01
  Speaker 4: this simple holiday home has increased from around twelve thousand
• 4:05
  Speaker 4: to forty three thousand, So twelve thousand to forty three
• 4:09
  Speaker 4: thousand in three years. It's going to keep going up,
• 4:12
  Speaker 4: and we're going to see more and more homes on
• 4:15
  Speaker 4: the market. And some will say, well, that's a good
• 4:17
  Speaker 4: thing because maybe they will bring down prices, But that
• 4:20
  Speaker 4: hasn't been the experience in Victoria, has it, Because we
• 4:23
  Speaker 4: saw last year there was a report that one in
• 4:26
  Speaker 4: four landlords in Victoria had sold a property that did
• 4:30
  Speaker 4: nothing to alleviate the housing shortage.
• 4:34
  Speaker 5: Look, I mean it's not fair. It's a dishonest tax
• 4:38
  Speaker 5: to begin with. It's going to push up rents. If
• 4:40
  Speaker 5: you're a land obviously you've got to cover your own bills,
• 4:43
  Speaker 5: and your bills are high because of this silly tax.
• 4:46
  Speaker 5: You're going to put it on the renters, so it
• 4:48
  Speaker 5: rips off renters. Firstly, it's also very dishonest. They talk
• 4:52
  Speaker 5: about making up it's a COVID debt sort of levy.
• 4:55
  Speaker 5: It's paying for all the infrastructure projects that most Victorians
• 5:00
  Speaker 5: rather don't understand or don't think that we need. I mean,
• 5:02
  Speaker 5: we've got a state debt of one hundred it's approaching
• 5:05
  Speaker 5: one hundred and eighty billion.
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: Dollars, highest in the country.
• 5:08
  Speaker 5: And you know when the Dan Andrews government came in
• 5:11
  Speaker 5: twenty fourteen that debts sat at twenty billion dollars.
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: This is not to repay COVID.
• 5:16
  Speaker 5: This is to repay the mismanagement of the finances of
• 5:19
  Speaker 5: the state.
• 5:20
  Speaker 2: And it's drastically unfair and very anti aspirational.
• 5:24
  Speaker 4: Absolutely, And people will say, and I know people around
• 5:27
  Speaker 4: the country say, well, you voted for this, you're Victorians,
• 5:31
  Speaker 4: this is what you want.
• 5:32
  Speaker 3: But what options do we have.
• 5:34
  Speaker 4: It's not like we've got an opposition that is coming
• 5:37
  Speaker 4: up with bold policies.
• 5:39
  Speaker 3: They're pretty much on the same bandwagon.
• 5:42
  Speaker 4: They haven't committed to reducing state taxes or what they're
• 5:47
  Speaker 4: going to do to drastically cut debt. They've got the
• 5:49
  Speaker 4: same crazy energy policies as labor. So it's top blaming Victorians,
• 5:55
  Speaker 4: it's victim blaming, Is that what that is. We've also
• 5:58
  Speaker 4: got the Victorian state government warning landlords that got a
• 6:03
  Speaker 4: rental task force coming after them. It increased numbers inspectors
• 6:08
  Speaker 4: and investigators. I've got to be performing spot checks and
• 6:11
  Speaker 4: looking into rent as complaints. With that powers to find
• 6:15
  Speaker 4: and even prosecute landlords in court.
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: I think they're sending a very.
• 6:19
  Speaker 4: Clear message here to property investors invest elsewhere in the country.
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: Perhaps Victoria isn't for you.
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: Absolutely.
• 6:26
  Speaker 5: Look I do feel sorry for renters at the moment.
• 6:28
  Speaker 5: I mean, rents are going up, cost of living is
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: going up, some of them are getting very desperate in
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: ways that they weren't two or three years ago. But
• 6:36
  Speaker 5: landlords are facing the same sorts of issues as well.
• 6:38
  Speaker 5: And I think there are lots of laws as.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: It is for egregious landlord behavior.
• 6:45
  Speaker 5: We certainly don't need sort of inspectors turning up so
• 6:48
  Speaker 5: I knocking on the door saying we're just checking to
• 6:49
  Speaker 5: see whether you fix the hot water or whatever.
• 6:52
  Speaker 3: You know, because they won't be abused either.
• 6:55
  Speaker 4: I mean, please now to the death of Iranian President
• 6:59
  Speaker 4: ibrah Racing in a helicopter crash yesterday. Patrick, you will
• 7:03
  Speaker 4: not believe this. Just when you think the UN couldn't
• 7:06
  Speaker 4: think any lower, it has held a moment of silence
• 7:10
  Speaker 4: for this mass murderer and tortuit.
• 7:13
  Speaker 3: It's utterly depraved.
• 7:16
  Speaker 4: And I'll be speaking to Josh Hammer later about the
• 7:18
  Speaker 4: Biden administration's reaction.
• 7:20
  Speaker 3: But how can the UN pay.
• 7:23
  Speaker 4: A tribute to this monster who's responsible for the murder
• 7:28
  Speaker 4: of so many innocent Iranians.
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: It's outrageous, it really is. And I'm in the UN.
• 7:32
  Speaker 5: If you look at it, it's morally corrupt at the
• 7:34
  Speaker 5: moment you look at all these resolutions that are anti Israel,
• 7:37
  Speaker 5: I make very little mention of a mass or a
• 7:40
  Speaker 5: massacre or even Jewish hostages. It's very tipped towards this
• 7:45
  Speaker 5: sort of Middle East sort of autocracy, if you like.
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: And as you say it, I mean, this man.
• 7:50
  Speaker 5: Was oversaw a political prisoner program that had five and
• 7:55
  Speaker 5: a half thousand political prisoners executed.
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: It is the Five Trials.
• 8:00
  Speaker 5: Yes, suppressed women's rights, There's no freedom of speech.
• 8:04
  Speaker 4: He is horrible, absolute monster, absolute Islamus monster. I mean,
• 8:09
  Speaker 4: if you're going to acknowledge his death. You should have
• 8:11
  Speaker 4: a little cocktail party.
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: That's about it.
• 8:14
  Speaker 4: And check out this ridiculous headline from BBC World News.
• 8:18
  Speaker 4: President Ibraham raises mixed legacy in around mixed legacy. That's
• 8:23
  Speaker 4: almost as bad as when the Washington Post called Islamic
• 8:27
  Speaker 4: state leader.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: An austere religious scholar.
• 8:30
  Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know what it is with pandering
• 8:32
  Speaker 4: to extremists for the mainstream media is a culprit now
• 8:36
  Speaker 4: from the Iranian regime to vegan.
• 8:38
  Speaker 3: Mums in Melbourne.
• 8:39
  Speaker 4: We cover all the big stories here Patrick, and this
• 8:41
  Speaker 4: one has got folks talking. A vegan mother has requested
• 8:45
  Speaker 4: that his son's footy team stop serving meat sausages at
• 8:49
  Speaker 4: postgame sausage sizzles.
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: And replace them with meat free options.
• 8:53
  Speaker 4: The animal rights activists wrote to South Melbourne District's Oskick, saying,
• 8:58
  Speaker 4: I've requested that if sossages must be served, which I
• 9:01
  Speaker 4: believe is not essential at a morning event, we swap out.
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: The regular sausages for vegan ones.
• 9:07
  Speaker 4: The club Patrick has refused, and instead advised her that
• 9:11
  Speaker 4: she could bring her own vegan sausages to be cooked
• 9:14
  Speaker 4: on the barbecue instead, along with the meat ones.
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: Where do you stand on sausage gate. This is an
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: issue that is tearing apart in Melbourne.
• 9:22
  Speaker 5: I'm pretty sure I stand with about ninety nine percent
• 9:24
  Speaker 5: of parents. As a parent, I went to four junior
• 9:27
  Speaker 5: football matches on the weekend.
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: In a netball game, I.
• 9:30
  Speaker 5: Think I would have had probably six sausages across that time.
• 9:33
  Speaker 5: They are utterly essential for getting through, absolutely absolutely essential.
• 9:38
  Speaker 2: So that's going nowhere.
• 9:39
  Speaker 3: That one's I'm with you.
• 9:42
  Speaker 4: It's one of the treats of having to get up
• 9:45
  Speaker 4: early on a cold, rainy Saturday morning is that you
• 9:50
  Speaker 4: get a sausage at least out of it. None of
• 9:52
  Speaker 4: these vegan concoctions are they give it five years. I
• 9:56
  Speaker 4: bet you in a city Melbourne there'll be more v option.
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: I'm never going to eat a vegan sausage never.
• 10:04
  Speaker 4: Okay bold words there from Patrick Carline.
• 10:07
  Speaker 3: And let's go to the Deputy Opposition leader Susan Lay, who.
• 10:11
  Speaker 4: Has called for broadcasters to support the Campaign against Domestic
• 10:15
  Speaker 4: Violence by ceasing to play Sean Comb's p Diddy Puff
• 10:19
  Speaker 4: Daddy's songs following revelations of his abusive and violent behavior
• 10:24
  Speaker 4: towards his ex girlfriend. I mean, this is a very
• 10:28
  Speaker 4: easy thing to request. And I'm sure the till women
• 10:31
  Speaker 4: will all be backing this. But I think and I
• 10:35
  Speaker 4: think Diddy should be behind bars, perhaps for the rest
• 10:38
  Speaker 4: of his life.
• 10:39
  Speaker 3: Let's put that, make that clear.
• 10:41
  Speaker 4: But I think this is a slippery slope. Indeed, when
• 10:44
  Speaker 4: you want to ban the work of artists who have
• 10:47
  Speaker 4: got questionable behavior, whether it's music, movies, paintings.
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: There are a lot of great artists.
• 10:56
  Speaker 4: Whose personal behavior has been atrocious.
• 11:00
  Speaker 2: It's interesting driving to work this morning.
• 11:02
  Speaker 5: Michael Jackson was on the radio, but you're never going
• 11:04
  Speaker 5: to hear Gary Glitter or Rolf Harritt.
• 11:06
  Speaker 2: I think the.
• 11:07
  Speaker 3: Market also, their songs are rubbish to the.
• 11:10
  Speaker 5: Point, but the market's going to sort it out for itself.
• 11:13
  Speaker 5: We don't need politicians saying there must be a band
• 11:15
  Speaker 5: on this. He's very much on the nose. He should
• 11:19
  Speaker 5: be in jail from the looks of it. People will
• 11:22
  Speaker 5: decide for themselves, and I think they drastically turned off
• 11:25
  Speaker 5: for all the right reasons on this particular artist.
• 11:29
  Speaker 2: We don't need bands.
• 11:30
  Speaker 3: We don't.
• 11:31
  Speaker 4: But we've got all sorts of great artists whose music
• 11:35
  Speaker 4: is now being played. But we look at their behavior,
• 11:38
  Speaker 4: some of them marrying girls who are essentially children at
• 11:42
  Speaker 4: that time, and certainly by modern standards, their behavior does
• 11:47
  Speaker 4: not pass the pup test, possibly even by the standards
• 11:49
  Speaker 4: back then. So I would just I'm not for just
• 11:53
  Speaker 4: these blanket bands. I think that's just being silly. But
• 11:56
  Speaker 4: you're right, I think the individuals make those choices, and
• 12:01
  Speaker 4: no one should be surprised that if you've ever looked
• 12:03
  Speaker 4: at P Diddy's lyrics and what he's promoted openly, that
• 12:08
  Speaker 4: the man was an absolute disgusting piece of work.
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: It's all there in the lyrics. Patrick Carline, thank you
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: so much for your time this evening pleasure.
• 12:17
  Speaker 4: Let's bring in renowned geologist professor Ian pi may In.
• 12:21
  Speaker 4: Thanks for joining me in the studio once again. Let's
• 12:25
  Speaker 4: start with our favorite cabinet minister, the helpless Chris Bowen.
• 12:29
  Speaker 4: Here he is proudly standing in front of a big battery.
• 12:33
  Speaker 4: He writes, the North Epping Community battery is the latest
• 12:37
  Speaker 4: in the four hundred community batteries we are rolling out
• 12:41
  Speaker 4: across Australia. Step by step, day by day, we are
• 12:45
  Speaker 4: building our renewable energy future. He looks very happy there
• 12:49
  Speaker 4: in front.
• 12:49
  Speaker 3: Of the battery.
• 12:52
  Speaker 4: But Ian, what exactly do these community batteries achieve. What
• 12:57
  Speaker 4: do we know about their cost, their capacity, city, their lifespan,
• 13:02
  Speaker 4: that sort of detail haven't come across yet.
• 13:05
  Speaker 6: Well, I think they're absolutely fantastic. We used to have
• 13:08
  Speaker 6: a time when we all sat in our houses with
• 13:10
  Speaker 6: reliable and cheap electricity. Now we've got batteries, community battery,
• 13:15
  Speaker 6: the community batteries and they last a few minutes.
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: So you all go out.
• 13:19
  Speaker 6: To the community battery with a candle and you meet
• 13:22
  Speaker 6: fellow power deprevies and you sit around and chat and
• 13:26
  Speaker 6: hopefully've had a warm mill because there's nothing to cook
• 13:28
  Speaker 6: the meal with when you get home. And these batteries
• 13:31
  Speaker 6: last a few minutes. Now, the one that's meant to
• 13:33
  Speaker 6: run all of South Australia, if all the power goes
• 13:36
  Speaker 6: last five and a half minutes, that's to keep an
• 13:38
  Speaker 6: industrial state going. So you can imagine a community battery
• 13:42
  Speaker 6: and it's going to last a few minutes. You get
• 13:44
  Speaker 6: to know your neighbors, you make friends with them, and
• 13:46
  Speaker 6: then the lights go out and you can get up
• 13:48
  Speaker 6: to all sorts of mischiefs. I think it's just fantastic
• 13:51
  Speaker 6: for community bonding.
• 13:53
  Speaker 4: Well at a cost, because those few minutes of capacity
• 13:57
  Speaker 4: are not cheap, are.
• 13:58
  Speaker 6: They Well, you'd have to sell your house soon, have
• 14:01
  Speaker 6: paid the electricity, and go and live in a tent
• 14:02
  Speaker 6: in the bush.
• 14:03
  Speaker 1: But it's great for the community.
• 14:05
  Speaker 4: It's great for the community. I just like the term
• 14:07
  Speaker 4: community battery.
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: It's a bit like battery hents. It all crammed in together.
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: It's very nineteen eighty four.
• 14:14
  Speaker 4: Now let's talk about the viability of electric vehicles. We've
• 14:18
  Speaker 4: got another car manufacturer that seems to be having second thought.
• 14:22
  Speaker 4: Senior Tourta boss says the company is still not sure
• 14:27
  Speaker 4: about electrification and that no one knows the future. Well, yeah,
• 14:31
  Speaker 4: we could have told you that they're going to continue
• 14:35
  Speaker 4: investing in combustion engines and hybrid technologies. Evs are looking
• 14:40
  Speaker 4: less and less attractive, and you do wander in without
• 14:43
  Speaker 4: the market interference from governments. Just how many Australians would
• 14:48
  Speaker 4: be buying evs right now.
• 14:50
  Speaker 6: Well, Toyota is the biggest car maker in the world,
• 14:53
  Speaker 6: and other car makers have seen the light. For example,
• 14:55
  Speaker 6: Mercedes benz I said, no, we're giving up on evs.
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: They're just not economically viable.
• 15:01
  Speaker 6: They can't last a distance, they don't have the resale value,
• 15:04
  Speaker 6: and we're giving it away. Absolutely totally. Unless you have
• 15:08
  Speaker 6: subsidized evs.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: People are not going to buy them.
• 15:11
  Speaker 6: And to make it worse, once you've got an EV
• 15:14
  Speaker 6: and it's been subsidized, you try to sell it after
• 15:17
  Speaker 6: you've done, say one hundred thousand kilometers. Yeah, the value
• 15:20
  Speaker 6: has just dropped through the floor. And I quite often
• 15:23
  Speaker 6: do long drives. Last week I drove to Broken Hill
• 15:27
  Speaker 6: in one afternoon, was there for a few hours.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: In the morning, and then drove back.
• 15:31
  Speaker 6: Now I did that six hundred kilometers from Adelaide to
• 15:33
  Speaker 6: Brekenhill non stop. It would have taken me nearly three
• 15:37
  Speaker 6: days to do in an EV and it might have
• 15:40
  Speaker 6: caught a light if I'd hit a kangaroo. God knows
• 15:42
  Speaker 6: what would have happened. So I think we stick with
• 15:46
  Speaker 6: what we know is tried and proven and reliable, and
• 15:50
  Speaker 6: the biggest car maker in the world cannot possibly get
• 15:53
  Speaker 6: it wrong.
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: Well, yeah, Mercedes.
• 15:55
  Speaker 4: You mentioned Mercedes because I think they were going to
• 15:57
  Speaker 4: go EV only and now they've said Noel, wait on,
• 16:00
  Speaker 4: We'll just keep on doing combustion engines and hybrids.
• 16:04
  Speaker 3: And evs until we know what the future holds.
• 16:08
  Speaker 4: But you're right about the resale value because we've got
• 16:11
  Speaker 4: a bunch of evs who are about to come out
• 16:14
  Speaker 4: of warranty, and you wonder what the value is at
• 16:16
  Speaker 4: that point where, at any minute when you buy it,
• 16:19
  Speaker 4: if the battery fails. Some of these evs, the batteries
• 16:23
  Speaker 4: cost over forty thousand dollars.
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: Well, that's quite right.
• 16:25
  Speaker 6: If you buy an antique car, maybe a car that's
• 16:28
  Speaker 6: sixty eighty years old, the value goes up. Every other
• 16:31
  Speaker 6: car you have, the value goes down. But if you
• 16:33
  Speaker 6: want it to go down absolutely rapidly and drop through
• 16:36
  Speaker 6: the floor, get yourself an EV because the cost of
• 16:39
  Speaker 6: replacing the batteries is horrendous. You've only got to touch
• 16:42
  Speaker 6: the underside on the curb and there are no technicians
• 16:46
  Speaker 6: that know how to repair that, so you scrap the
• 16:48
  Speaker 6: whole car. These cars are wonderful if you want to
• 16:52
  Speaker 6: drive a couple of kilometers a day and go to
• 16:56
  Speaker 6: the shops and feel morally superior, not telling people how
• 16:59
  Speaker 6: slave labor created the caboard for your car. If you
• 17:03
  Speaker 6: live in the center of the city. But if you
• 17:05
  Speaker 6: live where you have to travel great distances, such as
• 17:08
  Speaker 6: in rural Australia, or you want a plour field, an
• 17:12
  Speaker 6: electric vehicle is absolutely useless and a waste of money.
• 17:15
  Speaker 4: Their ideal for those til seats, those affluent inner city
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: areas where you know, the ladies might just be driving
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: a couple of kilometers to lunch and back and that's ideal.
• 17:26
  Speaker 4: Now to one of the funniest stories of the month,
• 17:29
  Speaker 4: the UK Telegraph reports eco friendly break cables are being
• 17:34
  Speaker 4: eaten by foxes after manufacturers s which from petroleum based
• 17:39
  Speaker 4: insulation to soy, forcing owners to wrap their cars in
• 17:44
  Speaker 4: tarp hoole And look at that car wearing a nappy
• 17:46
  Speaker 4: right there. Since two thousand, peanut and soy based oils
• 17:52
  Speaker 4: and waxes have been used on car parts, including gearbox insulation,
• 17:57
  Speaker 4: primer bols and diesel injector wires. And the foxes don't
• 18:01
  Speaker 4: mind the taste of this sort of insulation.
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: Ian Well, you couldn't make up stories like this and
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: it's too glabulous.
• 18:06
  Speaker 6: Now, if I were a fox, this should be terrific
• 18:09
  Speaker 6: because you'd get free tucker, you don't have to go hunting.
• 18:12
  Speaker 6: And the second thing is you get in underneath the
• 18:14
  Speaker 6: car you keep yourself warm. And the third thing is
• 18:17
  Speaker 6: quite often they have a pan underneath so you can
• 18:19
  Speaker 6: actually sleep in that pair so I think these people
• 18:22
  Speaker 6: are rewilding nature by having sawyer and peanut butter vegamine
• 18:28
  Speaker 6: cables on their vehicles.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: I think it's terrific.
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: The foxes are enjoying it, that's for sure.
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: It can possibly go wrong.
• 18:35
  Speaker 4: Now, an interesting piece in the scientific journal Nature entitled
• 18:39
  Speaker 4: the Importance of Distinguishing Climate science from Climate Activism. If
• 18:44
  Speaker 4: Bunkton rides, I'm concerned by climate scientists becoming climate activists,
• 18:48
  Speaker 4: an't we all? I see potential conflicts when scholars use
• 18:52
  Speaker 4: information selectively.
• 18:54
  Speaker 3: Oh, yes, this is all very problematic. Yeah.
• 18:59
  Speaker 4: He also writes without self critique and a diversity of viewpoints,
• 19:03
  Speaker 4: scientists will ultimately harm the credibility of their research and
• 19:08
  Speaker 4: possibly cause a wider public, political, and economic backlash. He's
• 19:14
  Speaker 4: going to get attacked for this piece, but is one
• 19:17
  Speaker 4: hundred percent right. You can't have scientists corrupting science with politics.
• 19:24
  Speaker 3: This is where they lose faith. We sword with COVID
• 19:28
  Speaker 3: and we've certainly see it with climate change.
• 19:31
  Speaker 6: Well, I used to be an avid reader and subscriber
• 19:33
  Speaker 6: to Nature, and when it turned into an activist journal,
• 19:37
  Speaker 6: I gave up. So I'm surprised at such an articular
• 19:40
  Speaker 6: piece in an activist journal. But when a climate scientist
• 19:44
  Speaker 6: can show me about human emissions, then I will believe
• 19:48
  Speaker 6: that they're not activists. And what they've got to show
• 19:50
  Speaker 6: me is half a dozen scientific papers that demonstrate that
• 19:54
  Speaker 6: human emissions drive global warming.
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: They've never done that.
• 19:59
  Speaker 6: So as soon as you talk about humans and climate,
• 20:01
  Speaker 6: you are an activist. So almost by definition climate science,
• 20:06
  Speaker 6: whatever that is in their language, climate science is an
• 20:09
  Speaker 6: activist venture. So the climate scientists have to show that
• 20:15
  Speaker 6: human emissions drive global warming.
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: They haven't done that.
• 20:18
  Speaker 6: And if they did do that, then then have to
• 20:20
  Speaker 6: show that the natural emissions, which are ninety seven percent
• 20:23
  Speaker 6: of the title, don't drive warming. So I think climate
• 20:26
  Speaker 6: science is an activist activity. Rather like many areas of sociology,
• 20:32
  Speaker 6: like gender studies, that is certainly not an area of scholarship.
• 20:36
  Speaker 1: It's an area of well. I would have to.
• 20:38
  Speaker 4: Point out there'll be very many climate scientists who would.
• 20:41
  Speaker 3: Disagree with you.
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: Naturally they live witness.
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: Well I'm not saying I disagree with you.
• 20:47
  Speaker 4: I'm just saying there's a lot of climate scientists slash
• 20:50
  Speaker 4: activists who might disagree with you. Before you go, I've
• 20:53
  Speaker 4: got to bring to your attention this fantastic piece from
• 20:56
  Speaker 4: The Guardian twenty years ago, which often talk about climate
• 20:59
  Speaker 4: catastrophizing on this show about these doomsday predictions, and let's
• 21:05
  Speaker 4: go down memory lane to twenty years ago when this
• 21:07
  Speaker 4: article appeared in The Guardian warning climate change over the
• 21:11
  Speaker 4: next twenty years could result in a global catastrophe, costing
• 21:15
  Speaker 4: millions millions of lives in wars and natural disasters. That
• 21:19
  Speaker 4: was published February twenty two. In two thousand and four,
• 21:22
  Speaker 4: it's been twenty years in another catastrophees warning that came
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: to nothing. But now we've got energy policies being designed
• 21:32
  Speaker 4: because of these predictions. We've had these predictions of doom
• 21:38
  Speaker 4: and gloom for decades, but it seems like now the
• 21:41
  Speaker 4: politicians are taking them extra seriously.
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: Well, if you read the Guardian, you get what you deserve.
• 21:47
  Speaker 6: And the second thing is that we've had thousands of
• 21:50
  Speaker 6: years of people predicting the end of the world by
• 21:52
  Speaker 6: some catastrophe, and in each case they've been wrong. And
• 21:55
  Speaker 6: if just one of them was right, we wouldn't be here.
• 21:58
  Speaker 6: So I think when you've got to shout out about
• 22:01
  Speaker 6: a catastrophe.
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: Then your argument is a very very weak one.
• 22:05
  Speaker 6: Science is married to evidence, and I have yet to
• 22:08
  Speaker 6: see the evidence that human activities drive a major planetary
• 22:12
  Speaker 6: process called climate change. Let learn a catastrophic change.
• 22:16
  Speaker 4: Professor Plymer, Thank you so much for your time this evening,
• 22:20
  Speaker 4: and still to come.
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: Left He's losing it.
• 22:23
  Speaker 4: Plus Josh Hammad joins me for the latest from the US,
• 22:28
  Speaker 4: and goodness me, Joe Biden has disgraced himself comprehensively this week.
• 22:42
  Speaker 4: Welcome back. Now it's time for Lefti's losing.
• 22:45
  Speaker 3: It And where would this segment be if.
• 22:48
  Speaker 4: It weren't for bitter, bile filled lefty loons filming themselves
• 22:53
  Speaker 4: losing it and.
• 22:54
  Speaker 3: Sharing it on social media.
• 22:56
  Speaker 4: Here is such a man, I use the term man loosely,
• 22:59
  Speaker 4: filming him having an almighty tantrum on the beach because
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: he saw flags.
• 23:06
  Speaker 7: And you're enjoying a nice stay at the beach with
• 23:08
  Speaker 7: my kids and I turn around. I got these flags
• 23:14
  Speaker 7: planted here on the beach by these mug of flus. Listen,
• 23:18
  Speaker 7: this is all America. We know you didn't storm the
• 23:22
  Speaker 7: beaches to stake out your territory.
• 23:24
  Speaker 2: On the beach.
• 23:25
  Speaker 8: This isn't the Moon.
• 23:27
  Speaker 7: I get it, this is America. But I'm sick of
• 23:30
  Speaker 7: my flag being represented by weight nationalist trash and a
• 23:35
  Speaker 7: goddamn beach themselves.
• 23:38
  Speaker 4: Magine being so triggered by the stars and stripes. If
• 23:43
  Speaker 4: it ain't your flag, though, mate, if seeing the flag
• 23:46
  Speaker 4: makes you so unhinged, perhaps consider moving to a different country.
• 23:50
  Speaker 4: I'm willing to crowdfund a one way ticket to Iran for.
• 23:53
  Speaker 3: You, something you think about.
• 23:55
  Speaker 4: We've seen the ladies of the view keen to defend
• 23:59
  Speaker 4: the lefties losing it on college campuses across America. Apparently
• 24:03
  Speaker 4: these kids are intelligent and ethical crusaders who want to
• 24:07
  Speaker 4: change the world.
• 24:09
  Speaker 6: Which students are pushing against the time.
• 24:10
  Speaker 9: Thrilled to see because I like when students get mad
• 24:13
  Speaker 9: and say we want to change mad.
• 24:16
  Speaker 4: But how much do these protests actually know about the
• 24:20
  Speaker 4: Israeli Palestinian conflict?
• 24:23
  Speaker 3: Let's find out.
• 24:24
  Speaker 10: Have you guys chanted from the river to the sea? Yes? Okay,
• 24:27
  Speaker 10: which river? Which sea?
• 24:30
  Speaker 3: The sea?
• 24:34
  Speaker 10: So you don't know?
• 24:34
  Speaker 2: You don't know?
• 24:35
  Speaker 9: The answer was the Mediterranean and the Jordan. What does
• 24:38
  Speaker 9: Hamas say their number one goal is, according to their charter,
• 24:41
  Speaker 9: they just want of the free poll thions to murder
• 24:43
  Speaker 9: all Jews around the world.
• 24:44
  Speaker 10: How many years did Israel occupy Gaza leave it two
• 24:47
  Speaker 10: hundreds of their entire time, since.
• 24:49
  Speaker 9: Forty eight is actually under Egyptian control for the first
• 24:51
  Speaker 9: twenty or so years. And then these are actually left
• 24:53
  Speaker 9: Gaza in two thousand and six.
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: I'm so they left. Wait what they left? Yeah? They did.
• 25:00
  Speaker 4: Surely they can't all be this clueless, can they. Let's
• 25:04
  Speaker 4: see if they can answer zach Sage's next question, what
• 25:09
  Speaker 4: is a Zionist?
• 25:10
  Speaker 10: What is the definition of Zionist? Didn't that mean you
• 25:12
  Speaker 10: they hate Palestinians?
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: Right?
• 25:14
  Speaker 11: Jewish people who think that Judaism is the highest race.
• 25:17
  Speaker 9: Zionism actually just means that you think Jews are entitled
• 25:20
  Speaker 9: to having their own homeland to protect themselves from another Holocaust.
• 25:23
  Speaker 10: You don't even have to be Jewish that makes you
• 25:25
  Speaker 10: a Zionist. Okay, what does antipater revolution mean? Old means
• 25:29
  Speaker 10: so you've chanted it. It's like a global call to
• 25:31
  Speaker 10: murdered Jews.
• 25:32
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 25:33
  Speaker 10: Wow, did you know you said that? We would you
• 25:35
  Speaker 10: say it again?
• 25:36
  Speaker 3: Probably?
• 25:37
  Speaker 12: Long?
• 25:37
  Speaker 9: How much have our foreign adversaries donated to American universities
• 25:40
  Speaker 9: in the last decade?
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: No idea. I couldn't give you a number on that.
• 25:43
  Speaker 9: The answer was over six billion. How many gods and refugees.
• 25:47
  Speaker 9: Have the Arab neighboring countries let in in the last
• 25:49
  Speaker 9: few months thirty five?
• 25:51
  Speaker 10: The answer was zero.
• 25:52
  Speaker 9: Look, do you ask an education major at about students
• 25:55
  Speaker 9: don't seem to know what they stand for? So wouldn't
• 25:57
  Speaker 9: it be great if these expensive colleges actually taught them something.
• 26:01
  Speaker 4: It would be great of colleges charging fifty sixty seventy
• 26:05
  Speaker 4: thousand dollars tuition would occasionally teach their students something other
• 26:09
  Speaker 4: than how to hate the West. Maybe then we wouldn't
• 26:12
  Speaker 4: have the chickens for KFC phenomenon as exemplified by this
• 26:17
  Speaker 4: next activist.
• 26:18
  Speaker 10: Can you explain what you're wearing?
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, this is like.
• 26:23
  Speaker 12: This and kia this is a Yeah, this is a.
• 26:30
  Speaker 3: Or what's the meaning behind what it is that you're wearing?
• 26:33
  Speaker 12: Yeah, So this is a kiyeffa. It's like kind of
• 26:35
  Speaker 12: worn in a lot of like kind of like more
• 26:38
  Speaker 12: Middle Eastern cultures, And this one in particular is like
• 26:41
  Speaker 12: has a lot of significance in like the sort of
• 26:43
  Speaker 12: Palestinian resistance words words words, wearing this to like show
• 26:47
  Speaker 12: solidarity with.
• 26:48
  Speaker 10: Like Palestine and Gaza.
• 26:50
  Speaker 12: Right now, what exactly are the Palestinians resisting Israel has
• 26:54
  Speaker 12: been essentially colonizing Palestine for the past seventy years or so,
• 26:59
  Speaker 12: and they're resisting colonialism. They are resisting imperialism, and they
• 27:02
  Speaker 12: have been resisting a genocide that has been waged against
• 27:04
  Speaker 12: them that is only intensified over the past seven months.
• 27:07
  Speaker 12: And they've been resisting this genocide for the past seventy years.
• 27:10
  Speaker 10: Would you describe yourself as a progressive?
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah?
• 27:12
  Speaker 12: Do you think that Gaza and the Palestinians share your values?
• 27:15
  Speaker 12: It doesn't really matter what they share my values. It
• 27:17
  Speaker 12: is because at the end of the day, they are
• 27:19
  Speaker 12: being genocided. Are you aware that in Gaza they behead
• 27:23
  Speaker 12: or throw LGBT people off of buildings. No, they do not.
• 27:27
  Speaker 12: Interviews done?
• 27:28
  Speaker 1: Thank you?
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: All right, just ask the question.
• 27:31
  Speaker 3: No they don't. Interviews done. Oh dear.
• 27:34
  Speaker 4: These people are almost beyond parody, but some comics find
• 27:38
  Speaker 4: a way.
• 27:39
  Speaker 3: Here is Matan Peretz mocking these income poops.
• 27:44
  Speaker 8: People are very sensitive.
• 27:45
  Speaker 13: I don't know, how can you judge on the Israeli
• 27:48
  Speaker 13: Palestinian conflict if you don't know your own gender?
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: If you know what I mean? Yeah, you know?
• 28:00
  Speaker 3: Why are people so upset? Used to be Palestine.
• 28:03
  Speaker 13: Now it's Israel trans you should know that.
• 28:17
  Speaker 4: Now, let's look at some lefties losing it over the
• 28:20
  Speaker 4: commencement speech given by NFL player Harrison Butker. You see
• 28:25
  Speaker 4: the Chief's kicker, who is Catholic, gave a commencement speech
• 28:28
  Speaker 4: at a Catholic school saying Catholic things, and that's saw
• 28:32
  Speaker 4: this podcast absolutely lose it.
• 28:36
  Speaker 14: The kicker for the Kansas City Chiefs, who has got
• 28:40
  Speaker 14: to be the most sexist white supremacist I have ever
• 28:46
  Speaker 14: seen in my life.
• 28:48
  Speaker 4: WHOA, she just defamed him there wildly. You should probably sue,
• 28:53
  Speaker 4: but they weren't done yet. Won't someone think of Taylor Swift?
• 28:58
  Speaker 10: Hate him?
• 28:59
  Speaker 14: It's unbel believable that at a time, this last football cycle,
• 29:04
  Speaker 14: where all of these women are attracted to the NFL
• 29:08
  Speaker 14: because of Taylor Swift, and here's this incredibly successful woman,
• 29:13
  Speaker 14: Taylor Swift, that has this amazing work ethic and then
• 29:17
  Speaker 14: I forget that this type of person exists everywhere and
• 29:22
  Speaker 14: this this is Evangelical Christianity. What he said is so disrespectful,
• 29:28
  Speaker 14: so to such a large portion of women, and it's
• 29:32
  Speaker 14: so dismissive. I just I hope that he is canceled
• 29:37
  Speaker 14: to hell and back, and I feel so sorry that
• 29:40
  Speaker 14: his wife has to sleep with him.
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: Good Lord, that got real weird, real quick.
• 29:45
  Speaker 4: And here's another lifty lady losing it over Harrison but Kerse.
• 29:50
  Speaker 4: She is a former Chiefs cheerleader who seems to think
• 29:53
  Speaker 4: she speaks for all womenkind.
• 29:56
  Speaker 15: You know, we have several things in common. First and foremost,
• 30:00
  Speaker 15: a few months ago, we were both employed by the
• 30:03
  Speaker 15: Kansas City Chiefs. I cheered you on for six years straight,
• 30:08
  Speaker 15: and with that, I would assume we went to the
• 30:12
  Speaker 15: same pr training. Biggests takeaway is you would now represent
• 30:17
  Speaker 15: a billion dollar organization. You are no longer just Staarson Buckert.
• 30:23
  Speaker 15: You are now Harrison Buckkert, who plays for the Kansas
• 30:26
  Speaker 15: City Chiefs, and anything you say or do that doesn't
• 30:29
  Speaker 15: align with that brand.
• 30:33
  Speaker 16: Saisoring.
• 30:33
  Speaker 15: Just like the lesbians you hated in that video will
• 30:37
  Speaker 15: be grounds for termination.
• 30:39
  Speaker 4: Oh gosh, it's a little bit annoying, isn't she And
• 30:42
  Speaker 4: these ladies are going to lose it even more when
• 30:44
  Speaker 4: they find out that Harrison Bucker's jerseys have sold out
• 30:49
  Speaker 4: in only women's sizes. I guess there is only one
• 30:53
  Speaker 4: thing left to do. Ladies, go into the woods and
• 30:56
  Speaker 4: scream it all out.
• 31:32
  Speaker 3: We're going to have more lefties losing it for you
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: in a minute.
• 31:36
  Speaker 4: Joining me now is a Newsweek's senior editor at large,
• 31:39
  Speaker 4: Josh Hammer. Josh, good to see you again talking about
• 31:43
  Speaker 4: lefties losing it. Let's check in to see how the
• 31:46
  Speaker 4: leader of the free world is doing.
• 31:49
  Speaker 17: And when I was vice president, thanks were kind of
• 31:52
  Speaker 17: bad during the pandemic. And what happened was Rock said
• 31:57
  Speaker 17: to me, go to Detroit. Help well, poor Mary spent
• 32:02
  Speaker 17: more time with Maybe he ever thought he's.
• 32:04
  Speaker 9: Going to have to.
• 32:05
  Speaker 4: I love you, Vice president during the pandemic, Barax said
• 32:12
  Speaker 4: to go to Detroit.
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: What pandemic is he talking about? What's going on? Josh?
• 32:18
  Speaker 10: I mean Rita.
• 32:19
  Speaker 18: I think what's going on is fairly obvious, which is
• 32:21
  Speaker 18: that the purported leader of the Free world is palpably senile,
• 32:25
  Speaker 18: and he is losing control of both his physical faculties
• 32:28
  Speaker 18: and his mental faculties. I mean, Rita. His staff has
• 32:31
  Speaker 18: had to produce for him a bespoke pair of sneakers.
• 32:35
  Speaker 18: He has to wear a special pair of sneakers literally
• 32:38
  Speaker 18: just to walk across the White House, the White House ellipses,
• 32:42
  Speaker 18: to actually get to Marine one, the presidential helicopter, just
• 32:45
  Speaker 18: to prevent him from from tripping even more than he
• 32:48
  Speaker 18: already already is. And he's been tripping a lot over
• 32:50
  Speaker 18: the course of his presidency. But however bad his physical
• 32:53
  Speaker 18: decline is, his mental decline is obviously so much worse.
• 32:56
  Speaker 18: I mean, I wouldn't even know where to begin when
• 32:58
  Speaker 18: it comes to just the shocking number of gafs that
• 33:01
  Speaker 18: we've seen over the past few years here from this
• 33:03
  Speaker 18: pathetic excuse of a so called president of the United States.
• 33:06
  Speaker 18: This is only the latest example here. It's easy for
• 33:09
  Speaker 18: us to joke about readA, but unforced to him, this
• 33:11
  Speaker 18: has very real ramifications. I mean, dictators all around the
• 33:15
  Speaker 18: world see the decrepit state of the commander in chief,
• 33:18
  Speaker 18: and from Pyongyang to Moscow, to Beijing and Tehran and
• 33:22
  Speaker 18: everywhere in between, they were just licking their chops looking
• 33:25
  Speaker 18: at this feckless excuse for president.
• 33:29
  Speaker 4: And it's not just the gaffs, it's not just the
• 33:31
  Speaker 4: cognitive decline. When he does put a sentence together, he's
• 33:37
  Speaker 4: likely to be saying dangerous race baiting speeches like this
• 33:42
  Speaker 4: one he gave to black students at a college graduation
• 33:45
  Speaker 4: ceremony in recent days.
• 33:48
  Speaker 17: You missed your high school graduation, you start a college
• 33:52
  Speaker 17: just as George Floyd was murdered and there was a
• 33:57
  Speaker 17: reckoning on race. It's natural to wonder democracy you hear
• 34:03
  Speaker 17: about actually works for you. What is democracy? A black
• 34:09
  Speaker 17: matter being killed on the street? What is democracy? Betrayal
• 34:14
  Speaker 17: of broken promises still leave black communities behind? What is democracy?
• 34:20
  Speaker 17: You have to be ten times better than anyone else
• 34:22
  Speaker 17: to get a fair shot. Most of all, what does
• 34:27
  Speaker 17: it mean, as you've heard before, to be a black
• 34:31
  Speaker 17: man who loves his country even if it doesn't love
• 34:34
  Speaker 17: him back in equal measure.
• 34:39
  Speaker 4: It is just an incredible speech on so many levels,
• 34:44
  Speaker 4: not just the falsehoods, not just the race faiting. But
• 34:49
  Speaker 4: you just wonder what the motivation behind it is. Why
• 34:52
  Speaker 4: does he want to put that message out there? Why
• 34:54
  Speaker 4: does he want to tell black graduates that they need
• 34:57
  Speaker 4: to be ten times better than non blacks.
• 34:59
  Speaker 3: To get a fair go, that they're being murdered in
• 35:02
  Speaker 3: the streets.
• 35:05
  Speaker 18: Yeah, this speech was absolutely positively disgusting. I mean, talk
• 35:09
  Speaker 18: about how a president of the United States should, in theory,
• 35:11
  Speaker 18: try to uphold the best of the American tradition. You
• 35:15
  Speaker 18: know what, Joe Biden should have done before he gave
• 35:17
  Speaker 18: this speech a Morehouse College, which is historically viewed as
• 35:20
  Speaker 18: probably the most prestigious of the HBC used the historically
• 35:23
  Speaker 18: black colleges and universities in America. But he probably should
• 35:26
  Speaker 18: have looked to some famous black Americans to see what
• 35:29
  Speaker 18: they had to say about the American experiment, about our constitution,
• 35:33
  Speaker 18: about our declarrange independency. He should have looked at people
• 35:35
  Speaker 18: like Marlon Luther King, who spoke wondrously of the Constitution
• 35:39
  Speaker 18: and the Declaration of Independence. He should have looked at
• 35:41
  Speaker 18: Frederick Douglass back in the nineteenth century, the great slavery abolitionists,
• 35:46
  Speaker 18: who spoke wonderfully about the Declaration of Independence and how
• 35:49
  Speaker 18: this country was founded. That that is America has founded
• 35:52
  Speaker 18: out in a noble and just way, for a noble
• 35:54
  Speaker 18: and righteous and just cause, and you know, just to
• 35:57
  Speaker 18: bring some kind of empirical teeth to an redtail as well.
• 36:00
  Speaker 18: There's notion that black men women in America in the
• 36:03
  Speaker 18: year twenty twenty four have to work ten times hard
• 36:05
  Speaker 18: to make it.
• 36:06
  Speaker 10: Are you kidding me?
• 36:08
  Speaker 18: Since the Civil Rights Act of nineteen sixty four, there
• 36:11
  Speaker 18: has not been duj your under law state racism in America.
• 36:16
  Speaker 18: In fact, the last vestige of actual racism was affirmative action,
• 36:20
  Speaker 18: which the Supreme Court thankfully and mercifully held as unconstitutional
• 36:24
  Speaker 18: last summer. That was against whites, Asians, Christians, and various
• 36:28
  Speaker 18: other groups, not against black. So this was a disgusting
• 36:31
  Speaker 18: race beating speech, but it speaks volumes about the situation
• 36:34
  Speaker 18: that Democrats find themselves in when it comes to trying
• 36:37
  Speaker 18: to lock up the black vote. They are petrified of
• 36:39
  Speaker 18: young black men in particular, basically the people that were
• 36:42
  Speaker 18: right there in the Morehouse College audience.
• 36:46
  Speaker 3: They are and if.
• 36:47
  Speaker 4: They think the way to appeal to them and to
• 36:49
  Speaker 4: bring them back in is to indulge in this sort
• 36:52
  Speaker 4: of racial politics, the speakatry of low expectations. They're on
• 36:57
  Speaker 4: the wrong track. But this is all they know and
• 36:59
  Speaker 4: that's what they going back to. But I want to
• 37:01
  Speaker 4: speak to you about this shameful episode for the Biden administration.
• 37:06
  Speaker 4: And today they've sent an official message of condolence to
• 37:11
  Speaker 4: the for the Iranian President Ibrahaim Raci, who died in
• 37:16
  Speaker 4: a helicopter crash yesterday.
• 37:20
  Speaker 3: Really the White House offering.
• 37:21
  Speaker 4: Its condolences to the butcher of Tehran, a man who
• 37:26
  Speaker 4: tortured pregnant women, who was responsible for thousands being slaughtered.
• 37:32
  Speaker 18: It beggars belief, I mean, disgusting. Honestly, does not do
• 37:38
  Speaker 18: this justice Rita, you know, tragically. By the way, it's
• 37:41
  Speaker 18: not just Joe Biden, I mean NIDO. The official NIDO
• 37:44
  Speaker 18: spokesperson also offered her condolences on behalf of NIDO. There
• 37:48
  Speaker 18: were many European European Union EU country that did the
• 37:52
  Speaker 18: same thing, but you know, for the United States in particular,
• 37:54
  Speaker 18: it really is kind of above and beyond disgusting. I mean,
• 37:57
  Speaker 18: this is a regime, the theocracy, the molocracy Tehran, that's
• 38:00
  Speaker 18: existed since nineteen seventy nine. This is a regime that
• 38:02
  Speaker 18: quite literally chants death to America in the streets. They
• 38:06
  Speaker 18: chant death to America in their in their legislature there,
• 38:09
  Speaker 18: and you know, just to kind of underscore how absurd
• 38:12
  Speaker 18: this situation is. It's not just that they want to
• 38:15
  Speaker 18: kill Americans and kill America. They do. The Iranian regime
• 38:18
  Speaker 18: has the blood of hundreds and hundreds of Americans on
• 38:21
  Speaker 18: their hand from their roadside IEDs that exploded during the
• 38:24
  Speaker 18: war in Iraq. They have tried to assassinate Americans all
• 38:27
  Speaker 18: around the world for that matter. But over the past
• 38:30
  Speaker 18: forty eight to seventy two hours, so what we have
• 38:32
  Speaker 18: seen is that a lot of the Iranian people inside
• 38:35
  Speaker 18: of Iran rey to have risked their lives to go
• 38:38
  Speaker 18: on social media and celebrate, celebrate the death of this
• 38:42
  Speaker 18: man that you just described, the so called butcher of Iran,
• 38:44
  Speaker 18: this man who has terrible, terrible, terrible amounts of copious
• 38:48
  Speaker 18: blood on his hands. And the same time that the
• 38:50
  Speaker 18: Iranian people who are struggling for basic human dimity and
• 38:54
  Speaker 18: free expression in south thrown country, at the same time
• 38:56
  Speaker 18: that they are risking jail time, prosecution, or god forbid,
• 39:00
  Speaker 18: even worse just to go to social media and to
• 39:02
  Speaker 18: express their joy that the butcher of Tehran is no
• 39:05
  Speaker 18: longer with us, at the same time as that the
• 39:07
  Speaker 18: president of the United States and the leader of the
• 39:10
  Speaker 18: free world is offering his condolence. How about we just say,
• 39:14
  Speaker 18: we hope for the best for the Iranian people. May
• 39:16
  Speaker 18: your next president offer you something remotely approximate in human dignity.
• 39:21
  Speaker 18: Not that the president has that power, it's up to
• 39:22
  Speaker 18: the Ayatola, but some message along those lines would have
• 39:25
  Speaker 18: been nice. But offering condolences for a terrorist jihad and state.
• 39:29
  Speaker 18: Oh my god, never thought I would see it. Honestly,
• 39:33
  Speaker 18: just if.
• 39:34
  Speaker 4: You can't put out a message that hopes for better
• 39:38
  Speaker 4: days for the Iranian people, then just don't do anything.
• 39:42
  Speaker 3: Don't put out a condolence letter. I mean, it is
• 39:45
  Speaker 3: oh gosh for someone.
• 39:47
  Speaker 4: As you know, my family fled Iran after the Islamic
• 39:51
  Speaker 4: Revolution and the Islamist takeover of the country. So to
• 39:56
  Speaker 4: have the US president, the Biden administration put out a
• 39:59
  Speaker 4: message like that, it's just like I said, it beggars belief.
• 40:04
  Speaker 4: Now let's talk about the illegal immigration crisis in the US.
• 40:09
  Speaker 4: We know there's also a crime issue there. There's been
• 40:12
  Speaker 4: some high profile cases. I'm surprised this case hasn't got
• 40:16
  Speaker 4: more coverage. And an illegal immigrant has been arrested and
• 40:19
  Speaker 4: could face life in prison after allegedly going on a
• 40:23
  Speaker 4: serial raping spree in a van police have described as
• 40:27
  Speaker 4: a rape dungeon on wheels. Here's more from Fox eleven News,
• 40:32
  Speaker 4: and a warning to our viewers is this report may
• 40:35
  Speaker 4: be distressing.
• 40:36
  Speaker 19: A quote rape dungeon on wheels, Oh I got it?
• 40:40
  Speaker 19: Described as rigged for reap, condoms, ropes, bungeies, children's toys,
• 40:47
  Speaker 19: multiple cell phones and hard drives and the mattress. Warren
• 40:52
  Speaker 19: steamed disgusting.
• 40:53
  Speaker 8: And I can say, in almost a twenty year career,
• 40:56
  Speaker 8: this is the most disturbing scene I've ever been in.
• 41:00
  Speaker 8: That evidence has of course been processed. Everything that's in
• 41:03
  Speaker 8: here is what's.
• 41:04
  Speaker 19: Left, investigators say, the man they call a serial reapist
• 41:08
  Speaker 19: with lock of women inside this mobile cage, locked in
• 41:11
  Speaker 19: from the outside behind this metal partition with no escape.
• 41:17
  Speaker 4: It's incredible that we keep hearing about these cases with
• 41:23
  Speaker 4: victims who have been left broken, some have lost their lives,
• 41:29
  Speaker 4: and yet really the Biden White House has done nothing
• 41:33
  Speaker 4: concrete to tackle this issue. With record numbers flooding in
• 41:37
  Speaker 4: through that southern border. You don't know who they are,
• 41:40
  Speaker 4: you don't know their criminal history, and we shouldn't be
• 41:44
  Speaker 4: surprised that cases like this are emerging.
• 41:48
  Speaker 18: Yeah, you know, there's no shortage of cases just like this.
• 41:51
  Speaker 18: It's the tragic part. So I live in South Florida,
• 41:53
  Speaker 18: as you know, Rita, and there it was in Palm
• 41:55
  Speaker 18: Beach County in Lake Worth, Florida, just two or three
• 41:58
  Speaker 18: weeks ago, that a very similar story. And don't think
• 42:00
  Speaker 18: that there was a physical van I mean, God, forbid.
• 42:03
  Speaker 18: Those images are indeed shocking and cut to the core
• 42:05
  Speaker 18: of our human consciences. But here locally in Florida, there
• 42:08
  Speaker 18: was also an illegal alien in Lake Worth who was
• 42:11
  Speaker 18: also raping women, and they finally caught him after he
• 42:14
  Speaker 18: had done damage to god knows how many souls. And
• 42:16
  Speaker 18: actually the Palm Beach County, Florida Sheriff, to his great credit,
• 42:20
  Speaker 18: was very outspoken about this and he said, you know what,
• 42:22
  Speaker 18: this person should never have been in this country, and
• 42:24
  Speaker 18: who knows how many people have been damaged by the
• 42:27
  Speaker 18: fact that he was just here. And it's ultimately up
• 42:29
  Speaker 18: to the federal government to prevent them from getting in here.
• 42:32
  Speaker 18: But the Democratic Party in its current manifestation readA, has
• 42:35
  Speaker 18: no interest whatsoever in trying to stop the migration inflows
• 42:39
  Speaker 18: of illegal alien immigration, because why would they Every time
• 42:43
  Speaker 18: that an illegal alien gets to a state. Due to
• 42:46
  Speaker 18: a ridiculous bit of constitutional misinterpretation by the US Supreme Court,
• 42:50
  Speaker 18: illegal aliens actually count for US census representation. It's a
• 42:54
  Speaker 18: ridiculous case that the Uspreme Court has to take to
• 42:57
  Speaker 18: rectify at some point. But under current Uspreme co or
• 43:00
  Speaker 18: case law, illegal aliens residing in states like California, Illinois,
• 43:05
  Speaker 18: New York, New Jersey actually aired congressional representation there. So
• 43:08
  Speaker 18: you have that, and you have the fact that their
• 43:10
  Speaker 18: likely future Democratic Party voter is the incentive structure isn't
• 43:13
  Speaker 18: exactly aligned properly for Joe Biden and his fellow Democrats
• 43:16
  Speaker 18: to actually shut down the border. What I greatly fear
• 43:19
  Speaker 18: is that it's probably going to have to wait for
• 43:20
  Speaker 18: the next Republican president, in all likelihood Donald Trump, possibly
• 43:24
  Speaker 18: come January twenty twenty five.
• 43:28
  Speaker 3: Joshana, thank you so much for your time still to come.
• 43:31
  Speaker 4: A transgender runner bood at a state championship. Stephanie Bastian
• 43:36
  Speaker 4: joins me next to discuss welcome back. Joining me now
• 43:48
  Speaker 4: is Stephanie Bastian, Women's Forum Australia Research Fellow. Let's start
• 43:53
  Speaker 4: with this story out of the US. A transgender high
• 43:55
  Speaker 4: school runner, biological male identifying as female and race against
• 44:00
  Speaker 4: real females, has been booed as he crossed a finish
• 44:04
  Speaker 4: line in first place in the girl's four hundred meter sprint,
• 44:08
  Speaker 4: taking out the Oregon Track and Field state championships.
• 44:12
  Speaker 16: Have a look, Stephanie.
• 44:22
  Speaker 4: It's a massive slap in the face for those girls
• 44:26
  Speaker 4: who have trained and sacrificed for years to reach that level.
• 44:33
  Speaker 20: Absolutely, and you can see the response on the field
• 44:36
  Speaker 20: that people are just more and more aware and they're
• 44:38
  Speaker 20: starting to call it out. That's exactly what the booing is.
• 44:41
  Speaker 20: And I have to say I really appreciate journalists such
• 44:44
  Speaker 20: as yourself calling out your peers when they misrepresent I
• 44:47
  Speaker 20: saw a tweet last week from the Daily Mail where
• 44:50
  Speaker 20: they called they said that he was winning, a woman
• 44:52
  Speaker 20: winning the race.
• 44:53
  Speaker 3: No, he was a man cheating.
• 44:54
  Speaker 20: And so I think it's really helpful that we have
• 44:58
  Speaker 20: this being called out the media and that more and
• 45:01
  Speaker 20: more people are aware of it. It's very frustrating though,
• 45:04
  Speaker 20: because Australia really does need to have some.
• 45:06
  Speaker 3: Action on this.
• 45:07
  Speaker 20: Women's Forum produced to report a Fair playing Field which
• 45:10
  Speaker 20: highlights the issues of men playing in women's sport, and
• 45:13
  Speaker 20: after the federal election we sent it to every state
• 45:15
  Speaker 20: and federal MP and every major sporting body and to
• 45:19
  Speaker 20: date there's been absolutely nothing and it's just unacceptable.
• 45:24
  Speaker 4: It is and just a reminder to folks of the
• 45:27
  Speaker 4: gap between male and female athletes, particularly in things like
• 45:31
  Speaker 4: the four hundred meters.
• 45:33
  Speaker 3: Reminded of this stat from a few years ago.
• 45:36
  Speaker 4: The fastest female sprinter in the world is American runner
• 45:39
  Speaker 4: Alison Felix. This is from Amy Alcon, a woman with
• 45:43
  Speaker 4: more gold medals than Yusay in Bold. Her lifetime best
• 45:46
  Speaker 4: for the four hundred meter run is forty nine point
• 45:49
  Speaker 4: twenty six seconds Based on twenty eighteen data.
• 45:53
  Speaker 3: Nearly three hundred high school boys.
• 45:55
  Speaker 4: In the US alone could beat it. So the gap
• 45:58
  Speaker 4: between men and women is that wide, and that's why
• 46:01
  Speaker 4: it's so unfair on those girls to train so hard
• 46:05
  Speaker 4: and to have someone who's coming identified as female and
• 46:09
  Speaker 4: beaten them. Now, we know this ideology most impacts girls
• 46:13
  Speaker 4: and women and infringes on their rights, but it's also undeniable, Stephanie,
• 46:19
  Speaker 4: that it's women who are most supportive of the transagender.
• 46:24
  Speaker 3: It's not just young women. Listen to this. Grandmother, ow
• 46:28
  Speaker 3: Odds are your granddaughter, they are six and eight.
• 46:30
  Speaker 11: Would you support them to get hormone blockers to become
• 46:33
  Speaker 11: the other gender?
• 46:34
  Speaker 21: I would absolutely support them to get hormone blockers. The
• 46:37
  Speaker 21: idea of one of my granddaughters learning that they're going
• 46:40
  Speaker 21: to start having their period if they don't get the
• 46:42
  Speaker 21: hormones blocked, even though they're identifying and portraying as a male.
• 46:45
  Speaker 21: How horrible that would be?
• 46:47
  Speaker 11: So? Yes, definitely, if your granddaughter came to you and
• 46:49
  Speaker 11: wanted to get a tattoo, what would you say?
• 46:51
  Speaker 3: That would be more difficult.
• 46:53
  Speaker 21: I always told my three sons the one thing I
• 46:55
  Speaker 21: ask is, please don't get tattooed.
• 46:57
  Speaker 11: Really, why tattoos?
• 46:59
  Speaker 21: There's just something are permanent about it?
• 47:01
  Speaker 11: Permanent.
• 47:02
  Speaker 3: It's pretty permanent.
• 47:03
  Speaker 21: It's really difficult to get them lasered off or removed.
• 47:05
  Speaker 11: You don't think it's like permanent to change your gender?
• 47:12
  Speaker 4: Yeah, old enough to know better, Stephanie, how do we
• 47:16
  Speaker 4: address this issue?
• 47:17
  Speaker 3: Because the polling and just you look at.
• 47:21
  Speaker 4: Who backs this agenda, and it's far more likely to
• 47:25
  Speaker 4: be women who are going to be disadvantaged by it.
• 47:28
  Speaker 3: How do you make them aware.
• 47:31
  Speaker 4: Of the full consequences of what they're embracing.
• 47:36
  Speaker 20: Look, I think there's different reasons why women are more supportive.
• 47:40
  Speaker 20: We are certainly the gentler sex. We care, and I
• 47:43
  Speaker 20: think that we're more easily manipulated by medical professionals who
• 47:46
  Speaker 20: come and tell you that do you want a dead
• 47:48
  Speaker 20: son or a live daughter? I think there are also
• 47:52
  Speaker 20: issues like, for example, in Victoria, our conversion therapy laws.
• 47:55
  Speaker 20: It is a criminal offense if you don't endorse your
• 47:58
  Speaker 20: child's gender identity, So that instills fear in the parents
• 48:01
  Speaker 20: they want to support, they go along with the system.
• 48:03
  Speaker 20: The parents we should be looking at, though, reader, are
• 48:06
  Speaker 20: the parents of three year old children who are presenting
• 48:08
  Speaker 20: at the gender clinics in Melbourne. I think we should
• 48:10
  Speaker 20: be looking at the influences and how that's come about,
• 48:13
  Speaker 20: because clearly, I mean, a child who is three does
• 48:16
  Speaker 20: not even understand the concept of gender. And we know
• 48:19
  Speaker 20: that there are some parents who do project their expectations
• 48:22
  Speaker 20: onto children.
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: In fact, a.
• 48:23
  Speaker 20: Federal judge founder father had influenced his two children to
• 48:27
