- 0:02Speaker 1: On Scylds Austrodia. This is the Wider Paney Show.
- 0:09Speaker 2: Good evening and welcome to the Rita Panehy Show coming
- 0:11Speaker 2: up tonight. The Great Douglas Murray has some important words
- 0:15Speaker 2: of advice for the Liberal Party if they ever want
- 0:18Speaker 2: to win another election. You don't want to miss that.
- 0:20Speaker 2: The Santos Boss likens the Victorian government to North Korea.
- 0:25Speaker 2: The panel will weigh in on the day's top stories
- 0:28Speaker 2: shortly and later in the hour. Josh Hammer has the
- 0:31Speaker 2: latest one. The US and Left is losing. It is
- 0:35Speaker 2: an extravaganza of broken wokies, including Joy Behar, who'd rather
- 0:41Speaker 2: die than be saved by a Trump supporter.
- 0:44Speaker 3: I wouldn't even let them get me a heimlich maneuvre.
- 0:48Speaker 3: That's how the little I would I feel about people.
- 0:50Speaker 2: But first, the coalition is once more after the Liberals
- 0:54Speaker 2: and the Nationals agreed to reinstate the power sharing agreement
- 0:58Speaker 2: earlier today. The deal was renegotiated after a snap National
- 1:02Speaker 2: Party Room meeting was called this morning to discuss Liberal
- 1:06Speaker 2: leadersies and Lee's response to the NATS four non negotiable
- 1:09Speaker 2: policy demands regarding nuclear energy Supermarket Divesta, the twenty billion dollar,
- 1:15Speaker 2: Regional Future Fund and regional mobile phone coverage. Joining me
- 1:20Speaker 2: now for more on this is the panel. Sky News
- 1:22Speaker 2: contributors Proo McSween and Tina McQueen. Pro I'll start with you. Well,
- 1:27Speaker 2: that was a bit of fun, wasn't it. It was
- 1:29Speaker 2: supposed to the last three years, we were told just
- 1:32Speaker 2: last week, but this divorce was short lived and they're
- 1:36Speaker 2: back together.
- 1:37Speaker 4: Well, reader, it was an exercise in futility egos.
- 1:42Speaker 5: You know, we had little Proud who.
- 1:45Speaker 4: Was all puffed up after beating Canavan and of course
- 1:49Speaker 4: the performance of the Nationals in the election, and he
- 1:52Speaker 4: decided he was going to you know who, I'll show
- 1:55Speaker 4: him whose boss. Well that backfire, didn't it so, and
- 1:59Speaker 4: I'm sure it was egged on by many of the
- 2:01Speaker 4: Nationals like Bridget you know, she was seen to be
- 2:03Speaker 4: behind it as well. So I think that you know,
- 2:08Speaker 4: we've seen that it was a hold.
- 2:10Speaker 5: It was going nowhere. It was going to be a
- 2:13Speaker 5: situation where.
- 2:14Speaker 2: The well just had to Well, it seems like they
- 2:19Speaker 2: had these four non negotiables team up, but really the
- 2:22Speaker 2: key issue seems to be net zero and the Nats
- 2:26Speaker 2: still haven't had a review on that policy. I don't
- 2:29Speaker 2: know what they're waiting for. Surely they know where they
- 2:31Speaker 2: stand on that crucial issue. But I also want to
- 2:34Speaker 2: ask you about another development we're seeing. It appears that
- 2:38Speaker 2: Susan Lee's new shadow cabinet is not exactly empowering conservative women,
- 2:43Speaker 2: will be all but a raising conservative women. The fur
- 2:47Speaker 2: shadow Minister for Women isn't a huge fan of conservative women,
- 2:53Speaker 2: it seems. Where is just enterprise? Where is Sarah Henderson?
- 2:57Speaker 1: Yeah?
- 2:57Speaker 6: Look sadly this will be a factional stitch up. Who
- 3:01Speaker 6: gets what with the shadows reata? And as for the
- 3:05Speaker 6: coalition at the moment, I think that I think that's
- 3:08Speaker 6: an ongoing saga. I don't think we've seen the end
- 3:11Speaker 6: of it yet. I think they've certainly united, but I
- 3:14Speaker 6: think there'll be question marks over a little proud's leadership
- 3:17Speaker 6: and how he handled it.
- 3:18Speaker 5: So I don't think the saga's entirely over yet.
- 3:21Speaker 6: And it's disgraceful if Susan Lee does not does not
- 3:24Speaker 6: put in a you know, some outstanding conservative women, it'll
- 3:27Speaker 6: be incredibly disappointing. But as I said before, this will
- 3:30Speaker 6: be a factional hander.
- 3:34Speaker 2: Well. They're often the most effective performers, they're the most
- 3:37Speaker 2: popular so if they're sideline, you've really got to wonder
- 3:41Speaker 2: what the strategy is there. Meanwhile, we've got Senator Jackie Lamby.
- 3:45Speaker 2: She's scraped in and will remain in the Senate, narrowly
- 3:49Speaker 2: beating Lee Hanson, the daughter of One Nation leader Pauline Hansen.
- 3:54Speaker 2: This is for the race for Tasmania's sixth Senate seed. Yeah,
- 4:00Speaker 2: we're going to look forward to more of this.
- 4:02Speaker 7: So when it comes to the tech billionaire, like I've
- 4:04Speaker 7: already said, I think he's a social media not with
- 4:06Speaker 7: no social conscience. He has absolutely no social conscience. Someone
- 4:10Speaker 7: or that should be in jail and the kibo thrown away.
- 4:13Speaker 7: That Blake should not be having right to be out
- 4:16Speaker 7: there on his own ideology platform and creating hatred.
- 4:21Speaker 2: Tina, that's just the good senator calling for the world's
- 4:25Speaker 2: richest man, Elon Musk, to be jailed for providing a
- 4:29Speaker 2: free speech platform. Ma'am, I mean the race went down
- 4:33Speaker 2: to the whyed, Tina. I thought Jackie was supposed to
- 4:37Speaker 2: be wildly popular in Tasmania. Obviously not.
- 4:40Speaker 6: No, Look, her vote has dropped considerably and it's a
- 4:43Speaker 6: bit of a shame that Lee Hanson didn't get in.
- 4:45Speaker 6: I think she would have made a great contribution, and
- 4:48Speaker 6: I hope she sticks around because she came so very close.
- 4:51Speaker 6: But yes, we've still got to listen to Jackie Lamby's
- 4:54Speaker 6: wise words for another six years.
- 4:56Speaker 2: Unfortunately, Well, I tell you provides a lot of content
- 5:01Speaker 2: for this program. Some of her die tribes are legendary.
- 5:07Speaker 2: Now let's go to Victoria and the Treasury here. Jaselyn
- 5:11Speaker 2: Symes has been labeled tone deaf after she asked a
- 5:16Speaker 2: room full of the state's biggest residential, industrial and commercial
- 5:20Speaker 2: property developers what their favorite property taxes. She posts the
- 5:25Speaker 2: question at the post budget Property Council of Australia breakfast
- 5:30Speaker 2: on Tuesday, asking that room what is your favorite tax
- 5:36Speaker 2: prow I'm lost for words. I mean, really, this is
- 5:40Speaker 2: in a state where property taxes are absolutely crippling so many,
- 5:46Speaker 2: not just those within the industry, but just mum and
- 5:48Speaker 2: dad investors who are being forced to sell up, and
- 5:51Speaker 2: she's asking people, Oh, what's your favorite one?
- 5:54Speaker 4: I mean, she's totally tone deaf and clueless and delusional
- 5:58Speaker 4: and has.
- 5:59Speaker 5: A huge eg.
- 6:00Speaker 4: Clearly, I mean to us that room is well just
- 6:05Speaker 4: the most astounding thing you could ever expect to hear
- 6:07Speaker 4: from them, But labor I think it's so used to
- 6:10Speaker 4: taxing now and of course spending, and that's why they
- 6:14Speaker 4: need to tax so much.
- 6:16Speaker 5: They don't have any idea that.
- 6:18Speaker 4: They're killing this industry, not just the property industry, but
- 6:23Speaker 4: the whole energy industry, which impacts on every other no
- 6:27Speaker 4: business in the state. So it's just another example of
- 6:32Speaker 4: an incompetent government and incompetent ministers.
- 6:35Speaker 6: I hope someone responded that there's just so many to
- 6:38Speaker 6: pick from.
- 6:40Speaker 8: Well, that's true.
- 6:41Speaker 2: In this state. It really is shocking, Tina, because it
- 6:47Speaker 2: is having such a dramatic effect on every level. We've
- 6:51Speaker 2: had I think one in four mum and dad investors
- 6:54Speaker 2: selling their investment property in the last few years because
- 6:58Speaker 2: they can't cope with a lax let alone all the
- 7:01Speaker 2: other impositions. So for her to be wondering what the
- 7:05Speaker 2: favorite one is is rather amusing, if not tragic. Let's
- 7:10Speaker 2: stay in Victoria and the Santo CEO Kevin Gallagher has
- 7:14Speaker 2: compared the state to North Korea and warned that the
- 7:18Speaker 2: Victoria's approach to energy policy is indicative of why major
- 7:22Speaker 2: projects are going offshore. He was speaking at an oil
- 7:26Speaker 2: conference in Brisbane and Gallagher said, if I think about Queensland,
- 7:31Speaker 2: South Australia, Western Australia, these are very supportive, very development
- 7:36Speaker 2: friendly jurisdictions. Victoria, North Korea their states different altogether. Wow,
- 7:45Speaker 2: prove that is an indictment. But you can understand why
- 7:50Speaker 2: there is mounting frustration within the resources sector over the
- 7:55Speaker 2: Allen government's hard left stance on fossil fuels.
- 8:00Speaker 4: It's a reality that business like particularly Santos, has been waiting,
- 8:06Speaker 4: not just.
- 8:06Speaker 5: In Victoria, but what the Narrowbraw.
- 8:09Speaker 4: Project has been waiting several years in New South Wales.
- 8:13Speaker 4: She's banned a new gas in businesses and residences from
- 8:17Speaker 4: twenty fourteen. I think it was And so why is
- 8:22Speaker 4: anybody really surprised that this is happening and that business
- 8:25Speaker 4: is withdrawing. It's great that business is finally coming out
- 8:30Speaker 4: and caning these governments and calling them to account.
- 8:32Speaker 6: Can I just say, Prue, I've spent a little bit
- 8:35Speaker 6: of time with Kevin Gallagher. He is a remarkable man,
- 8:38Speaker 6: incredibly brave. Look, he doesn't suffer any of this woke nonsense.
- 8:43Speaker 6: He comes out and says it like it is. Is
- 8:45Speaker 6: a remarkable man for the industry and I'm pleased as
- 8:48Speaker 6: yet again has spoken.
- 8:50Speaker 2: Out, well, he's right about Victoria because Victoria is the
- 8:57Speaker 2: most gas dependent state in the country, and yet we've
- 9:01Speaker 2: got policy settings here that are just mad and not
- 9:05Speaker 2: just frustrating the resources sector, but creating Tina all sorts
- 9:09Speaker 2: of uncertainty for investors.
- 9:12Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 9:12Speaker 6: Look, I'll be very surprised if she is still around
- 9:16Speaker 6: next election. I think the opposition is starting to make
- 9:19Speaker 6: a little bit of noise in Victoria and they've really
- 9:21Speaker 6: got to scream loudly on these policies involving gas and resources.
- 9:26Speaker 2: It's crazy.
- 9:28Speaker 5: So hopefully you know the damage she's.
- 9:30Speaker 6: Done to Victoria alongside what the previous premier did.
- 9:35Speaker 2: She's surely she'll be gone now. Finally, ladies, this is
- 9:40Speaker 2: a little left field, but I'm interested in your insights
- 9:43Speaker 2: into these. A firefighter shocked guest at his own birthday
- 9:48Speaker 2: by revealing that his wife was committing adultery, and the
- 9:54Speaker 2: speech was blistering and expletive riddled.
- 10:03Speaker 9: Yeah everything that's I ain't know, everybody, and hill, I
- 10:12Speaker 9: wasn't I about all the play bills you fill that's right.
- 10:26Speaker 10: Near him.
- 10:32Speaker 1: Children.
- 10:33Speaker 2: The die tribe went for some time, but fifteen seconds
- 10:36Speaker 2: each lady is Proue. Is that too much or fair enough?
- 10:41Speaker 5: No, go for it. Look, he deserved it.
- 10:43Speaker 4: You know, he's rescuing people and she's playing up on him.
- 10:46Speaker 5: You know, get out the fire hose. Give her what
- 10:48Speaker 5: for one hell of a birthday surprise?
- 10:53Speaker 2: So now what about you? Are you siding with the
- 10:55Speaker 2: fireman or the wife?
- 10:57Speaker 11: Yeah?
- 10:57Speaker 2: I am.
- 10:57Speaker 6: I think it's a terrific surprise birthday. And I think
- 11:02Speaker 6: if she's going to do the dirty on him, she
- 11:04Speaker 6: deserves all of that. And I Betty's had that in
- 11:05Speaker 6: planning for quite some time.
- 11:08Speaker 5: No one's going to right. Where has the sealhood?
- 11:10Speaker 12: God?
- 11:12Speaker 8: Proue?
- 11:12Speaker 2: McSween, Tina mccoen, thank you so much for your time tonight.
- 11:16Speaker 2: Joining me now is best selling author Douglas Murray. His
- 11:20Speaker 2: latest book on democracies and death Cults, Israel and the
- 11:23Speaker 2: Future of Civilization hit the shelves last month. Make sure
- 11:27Speaker 2: you get a copy. Douglas. Let's start in the US
- 11:31Speaker 2: with the Democrats, who are a broken party right now.
- 11:34Speaker 2: They're leaderless, they're ruddless, and their solution to that is
- 11:38Speaker 2: to spend twenty million dollars to research how to win
- 11:42Speaker 2: back American men. Yes, the Plan Code named sam Or
- 11:46Speaker 2: speaking with American men. A strategic plan promises to use
- 11:51Speaker 2: the funds too, and I quote study the syntax, language,
- 11:56Speaker 2: and content that gains attention and virality in these spaces. Douglas,
- 12:01Speaker 2: you're a man. What is your advice to the Democrats?
- 12:05Speaker 2: How can they win back mal voters.
- 12:09Speaker 13: One of them?
- 12:09Speaker 12: I'd start by not talking about the vile virality of
- 12:13Speaker 12: male spaces.
- 12:16Speaker 1: I think that's immediately going to be off putting. It's
- 12:20Speaker 1: so strange, isn't it.
- 12:21Speaker 13: Reading.
- 12:22Speaker 12: I mean tens of millions of dollars, you know, well
- 12:25Speaker 12: done to the consultants who've squeezed that out of Democrat
- 12:30Speaker 12: donors and others.
- 12:33Speaker 1: It's really I could save them the money. I'll tell
- 12:36Speaker 1: them now.
- 12:36Speaker 12: All you have to do is to show male voters
- 12:40Speaker 12: in America, as with female voters, simply that you're on
- 12:44Speaker 12: their side, that you don't hate them, that you don't
- 12:48Speaker 12: look down on them or regard them as second class citizens.
- 12:52Speaker 12: You don't think they should move aside or stay in
- 12:56Speaker 12: their lane, or hand over privilege or anything else. You
- 13:00Speaker 12: just demonstrate that you're on their side and that you
- 13:04Speaker 12: understand their concerns, and if you do understand their concerns.
- 13:09Speaker 12: You don't then dismiss their concerns as being always racist, misogynistic, heteronormative,
- 13:18Speaker 12: and so on.
- 13:19Speaker 1: It's really so easy.
- 13:21Speaker 12: But yeah, twenty million dollars to some people who give
- 13:24Speaker 12: worse advice than I just gave for free.
- 13:28Speaker 2: You should invoice because I think that's far better than
- 13:31Speaker 2: studying the syntax and virality of mal space as well.
- 13:36Speaker 2: Now let's go to Disney. There's reports that Disney and
- 13:40Speaker 2: ABC bosses have urged the ladies of the View to
- 13:43Speaker 2: just scale back some of their political commentary, perhaps tone
- 13:47Speaker 2: down their anti Trump diatribes, which can get a little
- 13:51Speaker 2: bit demented. It's not gone well. Whoopy and co. Cannot
- 13:55Speaker 2: bring themselves to even admit that there may be a
- 13:58Speaker 2: problem or two instead, soth Africa, how listen to this,
- 14:01Speaker 2: I mean movies in South Africa. I've been in South Africa.
- 14:04Speaker 14: I sent your science in South Africa, South Africa to
- 14:08Speaker 14: talk to people that I know who still live there.
- 14:11Speaker 5: There's no white genocide.
- 14:13Speaker 14: Okay, there's not a genocide happening.
- 14:16Speaker 2: Douglas. I would love to see you on the View.
- 14:19Speaker 2: But what's your response there to the ladies? Because Whoops
- 14:22Speaker 2: made movies in South Africa. So everything's fine.
- 14:24Speaker 12: There, Yes, absolutely, she must have really got a feel
- 14:28Speaker 12: for the place on the movie set. I'm sure it's
- 14:31Speaker 12: such a it's such an example actually of what we
- 14:34Speaker 12: were just discussing about this. Why can't they accept that
- 14:39Speaker 12: the situation for many white South Africans is absolutely dire,
- 14:44Speaker 12: a particular in farming communities. Why can't they accept that
- 14:48Speaker 12: that might be the case? And it's not a zero
- 14:52Speaker 12: sum game. I can see what they're doing. This is
- 14:55Speaker 12: the classic anti Trump movement thing. If Trump says something
- 15:01Speaker 12: you can never concede he might be onto something, You've
- 15:03Speaker 12: got to say he's onto absolutely.
- 15:06Speaker 1: Nothing and laugh off any.
- 15:09Speaker 12: Issue he raises, including really serious ones. You know, people
- 15:14Speaker 12: like the presenters on the view can say things like, well,
- 15:18Speaker 12: why isn't he focusing on genocides elsewhere? Why isn't he
- 15:22Speaker 12: focusing on ex human rights views? Why human rights views? Look,
- 15:27Speaker 12: there are two things about this. One is, again, this
- 15:30Speaker 12: is not a zero sum game. Because many black South
- 15:33Speaker 12: Africans get murdered in South Africa, mainly by other black
- 15:37Speaker 12: South Africans, does not mean that no white South Africans
- 15:42Speaker 12: suffers as well. And as for the sort of thing
- 15:46Speaker 12: of prioritizing. I'd say that, you know, there's a very
- 15:48Speaker 12: obvious answer that the Trump administration can give to this,
- 15:51Speaker 12: which is, there are many countries in the world that
- 15:54Speaker 12: prioritize all sorts of human rights concerns, but very few
- 15:59Speaker 12: that have even noticed the human rights violations against white
- 16:04Speaker 12: South African farmers, and so yes, if nobody else is
- 16:08Speaker 12: mentioning it, if it's not the cool thing, the cool
- 16:11Speaker 12: genocide for the view women to do, then nevertheless it's
- 16:17Speaker 12: perhaps even more so, it's something worth highlighting.
- 16:23Speaker 2: I just don't understand this complete hostility to granting asylum
- 16:29Speaker 2: to a few dozen Afrikaners South African farmers who are
- 16:35Speaker 2: going to assimilate well into any Western country, who speak English,
- 16:41Speaker 2: who work hard, who are generally very law abiding Douglas,
- 16:46Speaker 2: Why are people who are so pro migrant, pro open
- 16:50Speaker 2: borders hostile to this? Is it purely a skin color issue?
- 16:56Speaker 1: I think it's very largely that.
- 16:58Speaker 12: And there's another underlying thing about this story, which I'm sure,
- 17:01Speaker 12: like Merita, you can't help but notice it's something along
- 17:04Speaker 12: the lines of that happens with many examples of hypocrisy
- 17:08Speaker 12: like this, which is, it's not happening. It might be happening,
- 17:15Speaker 12: but even if it were happening, it's not as bad
- 17:16Speaker 12: as the other thing that's happening. And then the move
- 17:19Speaker 12: to Okay, maybe it is happening, but they kind of
- 17:22Speaker 12: deserve it in some way.
- 17:24Speaker 1: I think that is underlying a lot of the coverage
- 17:27Speaker 1: of this story.
- 17:28Speaker 12: And generally speaking, if a group is being murdered or
- 17:33Speaker 12: is being targeted for.
- 17:35Speaker 1: Annihilation, the idea that you excuse it by saying that.
- 17:44Speaker 12: Underneath all of this they're guilty by dint of their
- 17:47Speaker 12: skin color, of what of something that happened generation ago.
- 17:53Speaker 1: Now, two generations ago would.
- 17:56Speaker 12: Ordinarily be regarded as morally obscene, So why isn't it.
- 18:02Speaker 2: Well, collective guilt seems to be in fashion right now.
- 18:06Speaker 2: Let's go to Canada, now, where King Charles delivered this
- 18:10Speaker 2: land acknowledgment.
- 18:11Speaker 13: I would like to acknowledge that we are gathered on
- 18:14Speaker 13: the unseeded territory of the Algonquin and the Shinabeg people.
- 18:20Speaker 13: It is my great hope that in each of your
- 18:22Speaker 13: communities and collectively as a country, a path is found
- 18:27Speaker 13: toward truth and reconciliation in both word and deed.
- 18:33Speaker 2: Douglas, what do you make of that? Is it necessary, desirable?
- 18:38Speaker 2: Is it akin to our humiliation ritual?
- 18:44Speaker 12: I don't go in for the land acknowledgment stuff, but
- 18:47Speaker 12: I'm in the fortunate position of not being the king
- 18:50Speaker 12: and having to never make any misstep or upset any
- 18:54Speaker 12: tribe or literal or metaphorical.
- 18:59Speaker 1: I mean, I thought there was a very dignified speech
- 19:02Speaker 1: by the king.
- 19:03Speaker 12: The one thing I would always think whenever I hear
- 19:05Speaker 12: a land acknowledgement, it's for people in a country decide
- 19:08Speaker 12: if they want to do that sort of thing, for Canadians,
- 19:10Speaker 12: for Americans, Australians and others. The thing that I always
- 19:14Speaker 12: think when it does happen is I wonder whether this
- 19:18Speaker 12: could ever happen in.
- 19:20Speaker 1: Britain or in Europe.
- 19:23Speaker 12: Would it ever be the case that there would be
- 19:25Speaker 12: a land acknowledgment to the First People's and the indigenous
- 19:29Speaker 12: peoples of England, for instance, on whose land people stand.
- 19:34Speaker 1: I never really hear that. Maybe there will.
- 19:37Speaker 12: Come a time when things are so bad in Britain
- 19:40Speaker 12: and Europe that people do start doing that, but it'll
- 19:43Speaker 12: be some way off.
- 19:44Speaker 1: I think there will be a lot of retribution. In
- 19:47Speaker 1: the meantime.
- 19:50Speaker 2: There's parts of London. You could start doing that right now,
- 19:53Speaker 2: just on the King that he is in North America.
- 19:57Speaker 2: We know his son is in North America. There's a
- 20:00Speaker 2: bit of conjecture that there may be a renew reunion
- 20:03Speaker 2: with the prodigal son. Seems unlikely, Douglas, But would you
- 20:08Speaker 2: like to see reconciliation given the King is battling cancer
- 20:14Speaker 2: and he's not seeing his son or his grandchildren for
- 20:17Speaker 2: some time.
- 20:19Speaker 12: Yes, I mean it's a very sad story on a
- 20:22Speaker 12: family level, our human level, that you know the King
- 20:26Speaker 12: has been ill as you mentioned, and his second son
- 20:31Speaker 12: is missing and deliberately missing. I think, as you and
- 20:36Speaker 12: I have said before, reach the real problem lies in
- 20:39Speaker 12: the problem that Prince Harry and Meghan have created, which
- 20:44Speaker 12: is it's very hard. I think it would be very
- 20:47Speaker 12: hard for any family to reconcile with and have private
- 20:52Speaker 12: discussions with a family member which at any point could
- 20:57Speaker 12: be turned into another volume of autobiography and memory or
- 21:00Speaker 12: into a Netflix series. What could possibly be said? How
- 21:05Speaker 12: could Harry be trusted given the fact that he's in
- 21:10Speaker 12: constant dealings with media platforms and constantly sounding off against
- 21:15Speaker 12: his family. It's extremely hard to see unless Harry and
- 21:20Speaker 12: Meghan learnt the amazing trick of sometimes choosing to be quiet.
- 21:26Speaker 12: It's very hard to see how the King or the
- 21:28Speaker 12: royal family can trust them.
- 21:32Speaker 2: Now in the UK, we are seeing the rise and
- 21:36Speaker 2: rise of reform. Their surge in the polls continues in
- 21:41Speaker 2: a first past the post system. They're right now well
- 21:44Speaker 2: in front in a number of polls, ahead of Labor,
- 21:47Speaker 2: comfortably ahead of the Tories. Is this the end of
- 21:51Speaker 2: the two party system in the UK? Can they maintain
- 21:54Speaker 2: this momentum in it all the way to the election?
- 21:59Speaker 1: I don't know. It's going to be a nacing sea redoers.
- 22:01Speaker 12: You know, the electoral system in the UK is extremely
- 22:05Speaker 12: cruel to third parties, insurgent parties and so on. It's
- 22:10Speaker 12: not like list systems like the Netherlands has, for instance,
- 22:13Speaker 12: where you know, there can constantly be parties that come
- 22:16Speaker 12: up and take over and either rule well or otherwise
- 22:20Speaker 12: and get chucked out or kept in power. It's just
- 22:23Speaker 12: not like that in the UK that there's always been
- 22:25Speaker 12: this expectation that the two party system can't be broken.
- 22:30Speaker 12: And I suppose people think back to the ninety seventies
- 22:33Speaker 12: and eighties and the SDP and so on. But actually,
- 22:38Speaker 12: you know, of course sometimes a party does die, and
- 22:43Speaker 12: that was of course the case with the old Liberal
- 22:45Speaker 12: Party more than a century ago, and the Labor Party,
- 22:50Speaker 12: the Conservative Party. There's no law of nature that means
- 22:53Speaker 12: they have to survive. The interesting thing for a form
- 22:57Speaker 12: really will be whether or not they can demon straight
- 23:00Speaker 12: that it's not a one man party, that it's not
- 23:04Speaker 12: just Nigel Farage, and without him there really.
- 23:07Speaker 1: Isn't a party.
- 23:08Speaker 12: Nigel Farage is an extremely brilliant campaigner, exceptionally brilliant campaigner,
- 23:13Speaker 12: and an incredibly talented politician, but in order to get
- 23:17Speaker 12: anywhere near actually looking like he's a figure that can
- 23:21Speaker 12: head a government, he'd have to surround himself with many
- 23:26Speaker 12: people of an equal or similar caliber, and he's just
- 23:31Speaker 12: never been able to do that. And I'm afraid that
- 23:34Speaker 12: the infighting that Reform has already seen is sort of
- 23:37Speaker 12: a bad sign in that regard. Inevitably, a successful party
- 23:43Speaker 12: has to be a kind of coalition, but also just
- 23:46Speaker 12: has to have a lot of talent in it. Can
- 23:49Speaker 12: Nigel Farage spend the next couple of.
- 23:51Speaker 1: Years building that up.
- 23:52Speaker 12: Perhaps if he does, he's a serious threat to the
- 23:56Speaker 12: Labor and Conservative two party system if he does, and
- 24:00Speaker 12: I'm afraid it'll just be another of those strange electoral
- 24:03Speaker 12: polling berths that happens usually midway through a very unsuccessful
- 24:09Speaker 12: government like this one in the UK.
- 24:13Speaker 2: Now you've been good enough to give some free advice
- 24:15Speaker 2: to the Democrats tonight, if you could do the same
- 24:18Speaker 2: for our Liberal party. They're in crisis right now. They've
- 24:21Speaker 2: had a landslide election loss and they don't really seem
- 24:25Speaker 2: to know Douglas who they are and what they stand for.
- 24:28Speaker 2: There's a lot of advice that they should vea to
- 24:31Speaker 2: the center or left. But what would your advice be
- 24:35Speaker 2: to a center right party that seems to be having
- 24:39Speaker 2: a bit of an identity crisis right now in Australia.
- 24:42Speaker 1: Yeah they are, aren't they.
- 24:44Speaker 12: And of course, just like other center right parties around
- 24:49Speaker 12: the world, they'll always get a bad advice from people
- 24:54Speaker 12: who wish them ill and they'll take it.
- 24:58Speaker 1: I'm afraid that's a team every time with center right parties.
- 25:02Speaker 12: Every time there'll be people who would never vote for
- 25:05Speaker 12: the Liberals who will say, I think what you need
- 25:07Speaker 12: to do is to come come further to the left
- 25:10Speaker 12: and nearer to me, and so on. I mean for
- 25:14Speaker 12: the party to be successful, like all center right parties,
- 25:17Speaker 12: you have to show a set of things.
- 25:18Speaker 1: You have to show a.
- 25:20Speaker 12: Faith in the country, a love of the country, an
- 25:23Speaker 12: understanding of people's need for belonging, and aspiration and much
- 25:30Speaker 12: more particularly by the way that second one. I always
- 25:33Speaker 12: say to politicians or the center right that you know,
- 25:36Speaker 12: the left always has this very very powerful tool which
- 25:40Speaker 12: it uses, my goodness, how it uses it, which is
- 25:43Speaker 12: the tool of resentment. You've got to resent the rich man,
- 25:47Speaker 12: you've got to resent these people, the powerful.
- 25:51Speaker 1: So on.
- 25:52Speaker 12: But center right parties have a very very useful thing
- 25:55Speaker 12: which they should be able to play back at it,
- 25:58Speaker 12: which is aspiration.
- 25:59Speaker 1: That is to show a.
- 26:00Speaker 12: Means by which people who work hard in Australia follow
- 26:05Speaker 12: the rules will actually be rewarded for it.
- 26:09Speaker 1: And we'll see if they can make that happen. I
- 26:12Speaker 1: hope they do.
- 26:12Speaker 12: It's one of the most successful parties electorally in the
- 26:18Speaker 12: West and it deserves to have a future.
- 26:21Speaker 1: But we'll see.
- 26:22Speaker 12: As I said earlier, you know, there's no law of
- 26:23Speaker 12: nature that means that these parties just just survive.
- 26:27Speaker 1: They have to justify it. I'm not sure the Liberal
- 26:29Speaker 1: Party has done a great job of.
- 26:30Speaker 2: That, fantastic advice their Douglas Murray, thank you so much
- 26:35Speaker 2: for your time.
- 26:37Speaker 1: It's a great pleasure still.
- 26:38Speaker 2: To come a left He's losing it extravaganza full of
- 26:42Speaker 2: broken workers. You don't want to miss that. You're watching
- 26:54Speaker 2: the Raider Panety Show and it's time for lefties losing
- 26:58Speaker 2: it and the ladies of the view you have become
- 27:01Speaker 2: so toxic, so unlikable, and full of bar that even
- 27:04Speaker 2: the woke warriors at ABC and Pairing Company Disney are
- 27:09Speaker 2: telling them to tone down their political commentary, to just
- 27:12Speaker 2: rethink the constant anti Trump hate a hysteria, to perhaps
- 27:17Speaker 2: I don't know, stick to the facts so they don't
- 27:19Speaker 2: have to issue so many corrections and apologies. But sadly,
- 27:23Speaker 2: these ladies will not be told. They are going to
- 27:27Speaker 2: keep up the lies and hate. Here is Whoopy Goldberg
- 27:30Speaker 2: lying about Donald Trump again, firstly claiming Memorial Day was
- 27:35Speaker 2: the first time Trump has said anything positive about gold
- 27:39Speaker 2: Star families.
- 27:40Speaker 14: It was about time we heard him give the gold
- 27:44Speaker 14: Star families their due.
- 27:46Speaker 2: It was about time he did.
- 27:48Speaker 14: That, because he spoke and said, we're proud of our
- 27:52Speaker 14: gold Star families. This is the first time at least
- 27:54Speaker 14: maybe even less.
- 27:55Speaker 15: You've known it is reelected them at the White House
- 27:57Speaker 15: in his.
- 27:57Speaker 14: First But the last time we collectively heard him talking
- 28:01Speaker 14: about goldstarf families it was not positive.
- 28:04Speaker 2: It was only last September when these hysterical harpies were
- 28:08Speaker 2: criticizing Donald Trump for visiting Arlington National Cemetery with gold
- 28:13Speaker 2: Staff families. The left said that was politicizing Arlington. And
- 28:17Speaker 2: let's not forget the gold Staff families that endorse Donald
- 28:21Speaker 2: Trump at the Republican National Convention. But that's apparently the
- 28:25Speaker 2: first time he has mentioned them. Weill said anything positive,
- 28:28Speaker 2: according to Woope. Now let's hear from misery Gutz Joy Baha,
- 28:32Speaker 2: who wonders why the Commander in chief is even speaking
- 28:36Speaker 2: at West Point. Then she claims that Donald Trump is
- 28:40Speaker 2: walking into.
- 28:40Speaker 3: Walls, so why would they invite him to speak at
- 28:44Speaker 3: West Point? And wearing the hat was a political move. Also,
- 28:47Speaker 3: it shows you that the commit the hat is politics.
- 28:51Speaker 2: It's not about anything but that.
- 28:52Speaker 3: So he's supposed to be not political at West Point
- 28:55Speaker 3: or Arlington Cemetery, and there he is being political and rambling.
- 29:00Speaker 3: Jake tappanige to do another book because he was rambling
- 29:04Speaker 3: he's running around. I see him, I see pictures of
- 29:06Speaker 3: him walking into walls, and he.
- 29:08Speaker 2: Thinks she is miserable and delusional. Let's see it from
- 29:12Speaker 2: Anna Navarro, who is only happy when she's out of
- 29:16Speaker 2: the country and away from Trump. You know what, Anna,
- 29:19Speaker 2: you can always stay out. Perhaps you could join Rosie
- 29:23Speaker 2: in Ireland.
- 29:24Speaker 15: I was out of the country and for five blissful
- 29:27Speaker 15: days I didn't hear his voice. I had no cell
- 29:30Speaker 15: service and I had no TV. But then I come
- 29:32Speaker 15: in and I watch a clip like this when up
- 29:34Speaker 15: to your point of what you were just talking Quezy
- 29:36Speaker 15: the clip.
- 29:37Speaker 1: Yeah, as a linguist, translator and cryptologgic technician.
- 29:44Speaker 15: Right, well, I mean if Joe Biden said that, all right,
- 29:48Speaker 15: we'd be talking about his cognitive skills and cognitive decline
- 29:51Speaker 15: for days.
- 29:52Speaker 3: But why does the media avoid it with him?
- 29:54Speaker 2: Tell me, yes, sir, Donald Trump, mispronouncing one difficult word
- 30:00Speaker 2: means is Joe Biden now who routinely spoke incoherent sentences,
- 30:05Speaker 2: who struggle to deliver the simplest lines of an auto
- 30:09Speaker 2: que These ladies are really clutching at straws. And this
- 30:13Speaker 2: is after they've been told to dial back their lefty lunacy.
- 30:18Speaker 2: Now whoopee. Not only how to go at Donald Trump
- 30:21Speaker 2: to famed Donald Trump, she also attacked JD. Vance and
- 30:25Speaker 2: Pete Hegseath, men who risk their lives serving their country.
- 30:29Speaker 5: Pete Hegseath knows better.
- 30:31Speaker 14: He knows what it's like to be a service person.
- 30:34Speaker 5: Vice President Vance.
- 30:35Speaker 14: Knows, he knows how hard it was because I'm sure
- 30:38Speaker 14: one of the reasons he went there is to elevate
- 30:41Speaker 14: his life.
- 30:41Speaker 5: He comes from very, very poor people and the fact that.
- 30:45Speaker 14: You don't stand up and saying you can't do this
- 30:50Speaker 14: to these faults. I've worked with them. I know what
- 30:53Speaker 14: they got through. Instead, we get this kind of she.
- 30:58Speaker 2: Was so she couldn't even finish that sentence. You know,
- 31:03Speaker 2: the way these hysterical harpies are carrying on, you think
- 31:06Speaker 2: there was a crisis in the military. Instead, the opposite
- 31:10Speaker 2: is true. Morale is finally high after years of degradation,
- 31:15Speaker 2: and the evidence of that is in the recruitment numbers,
- 31:18Speaker 2: which have surged to new highs. They searched to record
- 31:22Speaker 2: numbers after Donald Trump's election triumph back in November and
- 31:26Speaker 2: have stayed high ever since. But facts and figures are
- 31:31Speaker 2: abhorrent to the ladies of the View. Let's end our
- 31:33Speaker 2: little view, catch up with joy Beha, who left her
- 31:38Speaker 2: phone on during filming, so very professional their joy, and
- 31:41Speaker 2: listen to her say that she would rather die than
- 31:45Speaker 2: be saved by a Trump supporter.
- 31:47Speaker 3: I wouldn't even let them give me a Heimlich maneuvre. Yeah,
- 31:51Speaker 3: that's how the little I would I feel about people.
- 31:53Speaker 2: Well, and a.
- 31:54Speaker 14: Maga supporter is like calling you right now?
- 31:56Speaker 1: I got it, somebody.
- 31:59Speaker 2: Now, let's check king with someone who seems to be
- 32:01Speaker 2: auditioning for The View, actress Kira Sedgwick. She is married
- 32:05Speaker 2: to Kevin Baker. In case you're interested, well, she seems
- 32:08Speaker 2: to think that women in America are about to lose
- 32:11Speaker 2: their right to vote.
- 32:13Speaker 10: Wondering how you're feeling about the state of our union.
- 32:16Speaker 10: Finding myself pretty scared about a lot of things. Scared
- 32:21Speaker 10: about losing my rights as a woman, Scared about losing
- 32:24Speaker 10: my right to vote as a woman, Scared about losing
- 32:27Speaker 10: autonomy over my body as a woman.
- 32:30Speaker 2: I would have thought her abortion days were behind her,
- 32:33Speaker 2: but maybe I'm wrong. And in any case, you can
- 32:36Speaker 2: get even late term abortions in most blue states, most
- 32:40Speaker 2: blue cities. But let's listen to more of this Hollywood stars, unfounded.
- 32:45Speaker 11: Fears, scared of my parents' social Security checks, scared of
- 32:52Speaker 11: food banks running out of food and not being able
- 32:55Speaker 11: to replenish because they're no longer getting federal funding.
- 32:58Speaker 2: She really is part of the awful phenomenon awful standing
- 33:02Speaker 2: for awfl affluent white female lefties. Let's check in on
- 33:08Speaker 2: a awful, well awf Latino. Jennifer Lopez still works. She
- 33:14Speaker 2: raised a few eyebrows with this performance, and she was
- 33:29Speaker 2: pretty happy with herself afterwards.
- 33:31Speaker 16: There are a lot of spacing moments, and there are
- 33:33Speaker 16: spacing moments in there.
- 33:34Speaker 2: I hear the kisses are going viral? Yeah, no doubt.
- 33:38Speaker 2: You know, Madonna and Britney did that like twenty years ago.
- 33:41Speaker 2: It's a bit laying these days, but the kisses going
- 33:44Speaker 2: viral is one thing, and something else that's going viral.
- 33:48Speaker 2: Our questions about why j Lo were so keen to
- 33:52Speaker 2: warn America about the dangers of Donald Trump, remember this.
- 33:56Speaker 16: He has consistently worked to divide us. At Madison Square Garden,
- 34:02Speaker 16: he reminded us who he really is and how he
- 34:05Speaker 16: really feels.
- 34:08Speaker 2: It wasn't just.
- 34:08Speaker 16: Puerto Ricans that were offended that day. Okay, it was
- 34:12Speaker 16: every Latino in this country. It was humanity and anyone
- 34:17Speaker 16: a decent character.
- 34:20Speaker 2: Decent character, she says, Yeah, she was very keen to
- 34:24Speaker 2: warn America about Donald Trump, but she's petered in his
- 34:28Speaker 2: former girlfriend. Why didn't she warn the world about him?
- 34:31Speaker 2: Didn't want all the potential future victims about what sort
- 34:35Speaker 2: of man he was and what sort of antiqus he
- 34:37Speaker 2: got up to. We've all seen the hotel tape. Now
- 34:41Speaker 2: here is a world leader losing her or at least
- 34:43Speaker 2: his partner, Brigitte. His slapping, double slapping the French president.
- 34:55Speaker 2: Let's have a closer look at that in slow motion please.
- 35:06Speaker 2: That looked like a slap to me, a double handed one,
- 35:10Speaker 2: but the French president claims otherwise. A book with Bitti's.
- 35:18Speaker 1: Next sea Markee he used to monis.
- 35:24Speaker 2: I don't know. If it looks like a backhander and
- 35:27Speaker 2: feels like a backhand, it's probably a backhanded manual. Still
- 35:31Speaker 2: to come, the latest from the US, including and he
- 35:33Speaker 2: sixty minutes anchors unhinged anti Trump commencement speech Josh hamma
- 35:38Speaker 2: As the.
- 35:38Speaker 8: Details welcome back.
- 35:50Speaker 2: Now, let's hear from sixty minutes anchor Scott Pelley who
- 35:55Speaker 2: happily pushed the Russian collusion hoax and was an active
- 35:58Speaker 2: participant in covering up Joe Biden's cognitive decline and the
- 36:02Speaker 2: dodgy business dealings of the Biden family. Remember sixty minutes
- 36:06Speaker 2: claiming the laptop was Russian disinformation. Well, old Scott gave
- 36:10Speaker 2: a commencement speech at wake Forest University recently and it
- 36:15Speaker 2: was a hot mess. Listen to this unhinged anti Trump hyperbole.
- 36:21Speaker 17: Our sacred rule of law is underattack. Journalism is underattack,
- 36:28Speaker 17: universities are underattack. Freedom of speech is underattack. And insidious
- 36:38Speaker 17: fear is reaching through our schools, our businesses, our homes,
- 36:50Speaker 17: and into our private thoughts.
- 36:54Speaker 13: The fear to speak.
- 36:57Speaker 1: In America.
- 37:00Speaker 2: Me now is Newsweek's senior editor at large and Article
- 37:03Speaker 2: three projects senior council Josh Hammer.
- 37:05Speaker 5: Josh.
- 37:06Speaker 2: That entire rant, and it went on for some time.
- 37:09Speaker 2: Was unhinged, and some of these self delighted media veterans
- 37:15Speaker 2: seem utterly shameless, No self reflection at all, no insight
- 37:20Speaker 2: into why so many in the leftist media are loathed
- 37:24Speaker 2: and mistrusted.
- 37:27Speaker 18: You know the funniest part of that clip that we
- 37:29Speaker 18: just heard, reader from Scott Pelly is talking about how
- 37:32Speaker 18: you know they're reaching inside of like inside of your mind,
- 37:35Speaker 18: into your own private thoughts. I mean, there's a saying
- 37:38Speaker 18: that some of my friends and I have said over
- 37:40Speaker 18: the years, which is this notion of living inside someone
- 37:43Speaker 18: else's head rent free. And I hear that clip from
- 37:46Speaker 18: Scott Pelly there, and my very first thought is, Wow,
- 37:48Speaker 18: Donald Trump is literally living in Scott Pelly's head rent Free.
- 37:52Speaker 18: I mean, that is the case with Scott Pelly, that
- 37:53Speaker 18: that that is the case for so many in the
- 37:55Speaker 18: left wing corporate media. But your point is the more
- 37:58Speaker 18: salient one, which is, my goodness, gracious, these people have
- 38:01Speaker 18: learned precisely zero lessons, have they? I mean, Pugh Gallup,
- 38:05Speaker 18: all the major public opinion posters here in the United States.
- 38:08Speaker 18: They say that the American media's approval ratings, their favorability ratings,
- 38:12Speaker 18: are on a similar level as venereal disease. And you
- 38:15Speaker 18: would think that people like Scott Pelly would have a
- 38:17Speaker 18: modicum of self reflection to be able to think, my goodness, gracious,
- 38:21Speaker 18: what have we done to get to a point where
- 38:23Speaker 18: somewhere between a fifth and a third at the very
- 38:26Speaker 18: most of the American people actually view us with something
- 38:28Speaker 18: remotely approximating decency and respect there. But no, no, no,
- 38:32Speaker 18: they rather just go to their Tony Ivory Tower University's
- 38:35Speaker 18: wake forest.
- 38:36Speaker 1: I know it very well. I've been there many times.
- 38:37Speaker 18: Pretty campus there, But apparently they're not very good at
- 38:40Speaker 18: bringing into sophisticated commencement speakers.
- 38:42Speaker 2: It seems.
- 38:45Speaker 14: No.
- 38:45Speaker 2: Can you imagine sitting there and listening to that? My gosh,
- 38:48Speaker 2: she'd want your money back, now, say Kamala Harris's visit
- 38:53Speaker 2: down Under is making news in America. Finally, she appeared
- 38:57Speaker 2: at a real estate conference, Josh. She was there alongside
- 39:01Speaker 2: reality TV stars, So that's the sort of level we're
- 39:04Speaker 2: talking about, and.
- 39:05Speaker 8: She had all sorts of keen insights.
- 39:08Speaker 19: You have the ability to understand the context in which
- 39:10Speaker 19: you live, the context in which others live, You're more
- 39:14Speaker 19: likely than than connect with them and understand what's importing
- 39:18Speaker 19: to them. But if you are in an interaction where
- 39:25Speaker 19: you don't have that level of awareness, they will be
- 39:29Speaker 19: aware of that. I mean, this is the thing that
- 39:30Speaker 19: I want to know about life, and I'm tun here understand.
- 39:35Speaker 2: She even did some of her finest work about being
- 39:37Speaker 2: unburdened by what has been and there was this Playboy
- 39:42Speaker 2: magazine anecdote you look at in a random story or whatever.
- 39:47Speaker 2: You look at the cover of Playboy magazine.
- 39:49Speaker 19: Let me just tell you the reason that people are
- 39:52Speaker 19: looking at these things understand why they were developed for
- 39:55Speaker 19: the perpetuation.
- 39:56Speaker 5: Of the human species.
- 40:01Speaker 2: Josh, that could have been your president.
- 40:05Speaker 18: Yeah, that laugh is just so unbearable, is it not.
- 40:08Speaker 18: I mean, you know they called her the cackler and
- 40:10Speaker 18: Chief for a reason.
- 40:11Speaker 11: There.
- 40:11Speaker 18: I mean, that laugh just makes you just want to
- 40:13Speaker 18: curl up into a fetal position and pretend like you
- 40:15Speaker 18: never heard that for the rest of your entire life.
- 40:17Speaker 1: There.
- 40:18Speaker 18: I mean, look, I mean, on the one hand, I'm
- 40:20Speaker 18: inclined to say that was a word salad. The problem
- 40:23Speaker 18: with calling it a word salad is that every so
- 40:25Speaker 18: often this salad can actually be quite tasty and nutritious.
- 40:28Speaker 18: There was absolutely nothing tasty and nutritious about what we
- 40:31Speaker 18: just heard there. I mean, this is a woman who
- 40:34Speaker 18: is just profoundly untalented. That then the number one thing
- 40:37Speaker 18: rita that I have never just been. It has never
- 40:39Speaker 18: ceased to amaze me about Kamala Harris. Every time that
- 40:41Speaker 18: I've seen her, and I thought her career for a
- 40:43Speaker 18: very long time. She was a very prominent DA, not
- 40:46Speaker 18: because of her legal prowess, I might say prominent, only
- 40:49Speaker 18: because of the disproportionate media attention that was shown her way.
- 40:52Speaker 18: She was a prominent DA out in San Francisco, she
- 40:54Speaker 18: was California Attorney General, senator from California, vice president. I
- 40:58Speaker 18: thought her career for a long time. The thing that
- 41:00Speaker 18: never ceases to amaze me is just how profoundly untalented
- 41:04Speaker 18: this woman is. At some point, someone in the DNC
- 41:07Speaker 18: brass saw someone who checked a few intersectional identity politics
- 41:11Speaker 18: boxes and they said, my god, we found the next talent,
- 41:14Speaker 18: and we are going to promote to the living crap
- 41:16Speaker 18: out of her and just promote her and give her
- 41:18Speaker 18: every opportunity. And sure enough, they succeeded until they didn't
- 41:21Speaker 18: until she got slacked in every single swing state by
- 41:23Speaker 18: Donald Trump the twenty twenty four presidential election.
- 41:26Speaker 1: But this woman just is not talented.
- 41:28Speaker 18: She is not skilled, and frankly, it really kind of
- 41:30Speaker 18: baffles me why she hasn't just retreated and gone in
- 41:34Speaker 18: some tony, you know, seven or eight figure position in
- 41:36Speaker 18: some consulting gig, in the fortune five hundred. I'm sure
- 41:39Speaker 18: there are a lot of corporations that would pay her
- 41:40Speaker 18: a lot of money to do these word salad sandwiches
- 41:43Speaker 18: whatever we're calling her there. But why she's trying to
- 41:45Speaker 18: bother the folks down under about it?
- 41:47Speaker 1: I have no idea. Frankly, Well, she.
- 41:50Speaker 2: Almost failed her way up to the Oval office. She
- 41:54Speaker 2: was almost president, so that in itself is astonishing someone
- 41:58Speaker 2: who has really not done particularly well in any of
- 42:01Speaker 2: those prominent roles she's been in, and yet kept getting pushed,
- 42:06Speaker 2: kept getting pushed because she took so many of those boxes.
- 42:10Speaker 2: Now we've got to talk about the Southern Poverty Law Center.
- 42:15Speaker 2: This body has just been a disgrace. In recent years,
- 42:19Speaker 2: they've added the wildly successful Turning Point USA to their
- 42:24Speaker 2: list of what they call a hate map, which supposedly
- 42:27Speaker 2: exposes the groups upholding white supremacy in the United States. Josh,
- 42:33Speaker 2: these lunatics genuinely are comparing this grassroots youth organization, the
- 42:39Speaker 2: largest in the US, a wholesome organization, to the KKK
- 42:45Speaker 2: to the ku Klux Klan. It seems astonishing. And the
- 42:48Speaker 2: Southern Poverty Law Center has had to pay out quite
- 42:52Speaker 2: significant sums in defamation in recent years, and yet they
- 42:58Speaker 2: keep doing things like like this. What is behind this movement? Now?
- 43:03Speaker 2: It used to once be a honorable movement, but they
- 43:07Speaker 2: really have gone wayward in the last decade.
- 43:11Speaker 18: At least, reader, I can actually one up this, believe
- 43:14Speaker 18: it or not. So, I've personally been a victim of
- 43:17Speaker 18: the Southern Poverty Law Center. In fact, it was about
- 43:19Speaker 18: two and a half years ago. In November twenty twenty
- 43:21Speaker 18: twenty two, the Southern Poverty Loss Center put out a
- 43:24Speaker 18: roughly five to six thousand word hit piece against me individually.
- 43:28Speaker 18: I kid you now, there's a very lengthy essay on
- 43:31Speaker 18: the website there. This is back when I was the
- 43:33Speaker 18: opinion editor of Newsweek. I was running the publication's op
- 43:36Speaker 18: ed section. They accused me, in no uncertain terms, of
- 43:39Speaker 18: acting to turn the Newsweek op Ed section into into
- 43:42Speaker 18: a fascist Nazis or a Nazi adjacent opinion page.
- 43:46Speaker 2: There.
- 43:46Speaker 18: Whether or not they were aware that I am Jewish
- 43:50Speaker 18: and I keep a rock from Auschwitz on my discovery
- 43:52Speaker 18: single dates remind me of the Holocaust, I'm not entirely
- 43:54Speaker 18: sure that they actually thought this one through, but yeah,
- 43:58Speaker 18: I mean, they've paid up a lot of money defamation
- 44:00Speaker 18: losses over the years for things exactly like that. I
- 44:03Speaker 18: mean this organization, I mean, I mean, I had to put
- 44:05Speaker 18: it mildly. They have lost their way, But you're right.
- 44:08Speaker 18: I mean, I mean the NAACP, the Southern Poverty Law Center.
- 44:10Speaker 18: Once upon a time, back in the era of Martin
- 44:12Speaker 18: Luther King Junior, the nineteen fifties, nineteen sixties, ROSA Parks,
- 44:16Speaker 18: the Montgomery, Alabama bus rides and everything there. The SPLC
- 44:20Speaker 18: was fighting on the correct side of history. As our
- 44:22Speaker 18: progressive friends would like to say, the problem is that,
- 44:25Speaker 18: like so many once liberal institutions, they drank the woke,
- 44:29Speaker 18: identitarian identity politics, neo Marxis kool aid with every ounce
- 44:33Speaker 18: of their being, and they have turned into the very
- 44:35Speaker 18: monsters that once upon a time, very long ago they oppose.
- 44:39Speaker 18: I'm not surprised in the slightest that they are accusing
- 44:41Speaker 18: Turning Points USA, which is run by my friend Charlie Kirk.
- 44:44Speaker 18: I'm not even remotely surprised that they're putting turning points
- 44:47Speaker 18: in the cross. Here's Turning Point in USA, and under
- 44:49Speaker 18: Charlie's leadership, has been an extraordinarily successful organization, one of
- 44:53Speaker 18: the most con one of those consistently successful organizations on
- 44:58Speaker 18: the entire American right. So they're trying to just put
- 45:02Speaker 18: some chink in the armor, so to speak of this
- 45:04Speaker 18: venomal organization that raised a lot of money in organization
- 45:07Speaker 18: that turns out youth support. It's probably one of the
- 45:09Speaker 18: number one reasons, by the way that Donald Trump picked
- 45:11Speaker 18: up massive ground with eighteen to twenty four voters is
- 45:14Speaker 18: Turning Point USA. So they're trying to kind of take
- 45:16Speaker 18: them down a notch there in the political service of
- 45:19Speaker 18: the folks who actually butter their bread the Democratic Party there,
- 45:22Speaker 18: it's not going to work, if anything. Frankly read, I
- 45:24Speaker 18: actually anticipated that Turning Point USA will probably be able
- 45:26Speaker 18: to raise a lot more money off of the fact
- 45:29Speaker 18: that the Southern Poverty Laws Center has ludicrously deemed them
- 45:32Speaker 18: a so called heat group.
- 45:34Speaker 2: Well, yeah, the Southern Poverty Law Center has lost all credibility.
- 45:38Speaker 2: I mean your example, I wasn't even aware of that
- 45:41Speaker 2: calling a proud Jewish Man not a Nazi. I mean
- 45:45Speaker 2: that just shows you how completely demented they have become. Yeah,
- 45:51Speaker 2: they deserve absolutely no credibility whatsoever. And it's sad because
- 45:56Speaker 2: once upon a time they did do good work. Now
- 45:59Speaker 2: you coined the term judicial insurrection to describe the manner
- 46:03Speaker 2: in which Democrat appointed activist judges are trying to usurp
- 46:08Speaker 2: the authority of the president, the will of the American people.
- 46:12Speaker 2: And there's been another example of that, Josh, since we
- 46:15Speaker 2: last spoke, the federal court judge has a federal judge
- 46:19Speaker 2: has blocked the Trump administration's dismantling of the Department of Education. Now,
- 46:26Speaker 2: before you tell me more about this, this is a
- 46:28Speaker 2: policy that did not start with Trump. This plan to
- 46:33Speaker 2: get rid of a department that is really an impediment
- 46:36Speaker 2: to education outcomes of American children, it started with this man.
- 46:41Speaker 17: I would like to dissolve the ten billion dollar National
- 46:44Speaker 17: Department of Education created by President Carter and turn schools
- 46:48Speaker 17: back to the local school districts.
- 46:51Speaker 2: Okay, Josh, Ronald Reagan couldn't. What can Trump pull this off?
- 47:03Speaker 1: Well, what Reagan said is right. This is a creature
- 47:06Speaker 1: of the Jimmy Carter era.
- 47:07Speaker 18: President Carter signs the relevant statue from Congress into law
- 47:10Speaker 18: in the late nineteen seventies, and every single Republican president
- 47:13Speaker 18: since Ronald Reagan has vowed to shut down the part
- 47:16Speaker 18: and of Education. Now, two things can be true at once. Rita,
- 47:20Speaker 18: it probably technically does take an Act of Congress to
- 47:23Speaker 18: formally to formally abolish the education bar in the same
- 47:26Speaker 18: way that it took an Act of Congress to promulgate
- 47:29Speaker 18: it in the first inance is. However, on the other hand,
- 47:32Speaker 18: the president does have the ability to effectively all but
- 47:36Speaker 18: eliminated via a sheer force of attrition because he is
- 47:39Speaker 18: the executive He controls the executive branch, and he can
- 47:42Speaker 18: sign executive orders that effectively result in the layoffs or
- 47:45Speaker 18: the firing or the early terminations, whatever you want to
- 47:48Speaker 18: call it, of the overalling majority of the Education Department
- 47:51Speaker 18: bureaucracy there. So, yes, it would probably take a literal
- 47:54Speaker 18: act of Congress to actually tear down that sign for
- 47:57Speaker 18: the federal government to sell the building to some private
- 48:00Speaker 18: developer whatever they're but he can do it on his own. However,
- 48:03Speaker 18: this obstinate federal judge, who is very much part of
- 48:05Speaker 18: the judicial insurrection, who is trying to stop him there
- 48:08Speaker 18: is just wildly overstepping his balance. Like so many judges
- 48:11Speaker 18: read it, this is the number one thing, This is
- 48:13Speaker 18: literally the number one thing that the Trump minstration is
- 48:16Speaker 18: going to have to get comfortable taking on. But doing
- 48:18Speaker 18: a great job when it comes to so many issues there.
- 48:21Speaker 18: They've been bold and aggressive when it comes to tariff policy,
- 48:24Speaker 18: when it comes to all sorts of in foreign policies there,
- 48:26Speaker 18: taking on these black robe tyrants in the least dangerous
- 48:30Speaker 18: branch and Article three the judicial branch there, that is
- 48:33Speaker 18: the name of the game right now. They really are
- 48:35Speaker 18: going to have to, I think, to grow a pair here.
- 48:37Speaker 18: It's easier said than done. I don't have all the
- 48:39Speaker 18: solutions there, but this is the big threat right now
- 48:41Speaker 18: to Donald Trump's agenda more than anything else. It is
- 48:43Speaker 18: the judicial insurrection.
- 48:47Speaker 2: Well said Josh Hannah, thank you so much for your
- 48:49Speaker 2: time tonight. And that's all the time we have. Don't
- 48:53Speaker 2: go anywhere, and he's not is up next, y
