- 0:12Speaker 3: up tonight. Your taxes funding neither classes for bureaucrats. Patrick
- 0:16Speaker 3: Carline will be here to discuss that and much more.
- 0:20Speaker 4: The politicization of the.
- 0:21Speaker 3: Australian curriculum is back in the headlines, including a requirement
- 0:25Speaker 3: to incorporate indiculous dance into MAT's classes.
- 0:29Speaker 4: Colleen Harkin joins me.
- 0:31Speaker 3: Shortly, the back between President Trump and cos Zelenski intensifies
- 0:36Speaker 3: as the Ukrainian leader declares the end of the war
- 0:39Speaker 3: is very far away. Kosher Gator will break down their

- 0:47Speaker 3: Stein will bring us some good news from the US
- 0:50Speaker 3: southern border. The illegal immigration crisis is over.
- 0:55Speaker 4: To take long, did it?
- 0:56Speaker 3: And of course your favorite segment and mine left his
- 1:00Speaker 3: losing it featuring the most nominated film at yesterday's Oscars,
- 1:05Speaker 3: a Mexican musical about a transgender cartel leader.
- 1:10Speaker 4: I wish I was kidding.
- 1:11Speaker 2: Man to woman from Pstuina.
- 1:16Speaker 4: Is it for you for Me? Yes?
- 1:22Speaker 3: That got thirteen nominations. Can't imagine why people aren't going
- 1:25Speaker 3: to the movies nowadays.
- 1:27Speaker 4: But let's start with the Day's a big stories.
- 1:29Speaker 3: And the same fringe indigenous group that brought down the
- 1:32Speaker 3: billion dollar Regis gold mine has now set its sights
- 1:36Speaker 3: on Mount Panama Rama, the home of the iconic Bathurst
- 1:40Speaker 3: one thousand. The Worried Jury Traditional Owner's Central West Aboriginal
- 1:45Speaker 3: Corporation launched a bid to have the peak of Mount
- 1:49Speaker 3: Panorama declared a sacred State Heritage site after its scattered
- 1:55Speaker 3: the ashes of former member Uncle Brian Grant there in
- 1:59Speaker 3: late twenty two. Bathurst A Local Aboriginal Land Council Chief
- 2:03Speaker 3: Executive Tony Lee Scott has hit out at this rebel group,
- 2:07Speaker 3: saying the proposal had been made without informing the Land
- 2:12Speaker 3: Council even though it is the legislated cultural authority.
- 2:16Speaker 4: Of that region.
- 2:16Speaker 3: The local Aboriginal Land Council had criticized Tanier Plibask last
- 2:21Speaker 3: year when she used the fringe group submission to block
- 2:25Speaker 3: the Regious gold mine that will cost the hundreds of
- 2:29Speaker 3: well paying jobs for that region, as well as around
- 2:32Speaker 3: two hundred million dollars in royalties.
- 2:35Speaker 4: For New South Wales.
- 2:36Speaker 3: Joining me now for more on this is News Corps
- 2:38Speaker 3: Senior writer Patrick Carli and Patrick, will we see the
- 2:42Speaker 3: minister side with this fringe group again? I do wonder,
- 2:46Speaker 3: And if scattering ashes in twenty twenty two is going
- 2:50Speaker 3: to be grounds for declaring an area an Indigenous heritage site,
- 2:55Speaker 3: then I can see that causing a few issues.
- 2:58Speaker 5: This is game changing with its audacity, isn't it. When
- 3:02Speaker 5: you think of sacred, you think ancient, you think of caves,
- 3:04Speaker 5: you think of trees or whatever. The ashes were scattered
- 3:09Speaker 5: in twenty twenty two, that's two three years ago, basically
- 3:14Speaker 5: the man's ashes. It wasn't even born or raised in
- 3:17Speaker 5: bass from what I read. It's such an audacious claim.
- 3:20Speaker 5: If it is successful, it actually opens the door to
- 3:23Speaker 5: actually laying ashes wherever and saying this is a sacred
- 3:26Speaker 5: site because we laid our ashes here last week or
- 3:29Speaker 5: last year. I mean, it's ridiculous. It is utterly ridiculous.
- 3:32Speaker 3: Well remains to be seen if there's any other grounds
- 3:35Speaker 3: for this claim. But as we know with the Region's
- 3:38Speaker 3: gold mine, we still don't actually know why that was rejected.
- 3:42Speaker 3: There's really not clarity on that decision. And that was
- 3:46Speaker 3: such a momentous decision Patrick, A billion dollar project, all
- 3:51Speaker 3: these well paying jobs for a regional area that desperately
- 3:55Speaker 3: needs them, and enormous amount of money going to New
- 3:59Speaker 3: South Wales in loyalties.
- 4:01Speaker 4: Premier means was a gas.
- 4:03Speaker 3: The Prime Minister didn't seem to be on board, and
- 4:05Speaker 3: yet Tania Plebusk made this decision.
- 4:08Speaker 5: I think anyone who's looked at that closely would be
- 4:10Speaker 5: a ghast. I mean, the argument was the Blue Banded
- 4:13Speaker 5: B and the story of the Blue Banded B. Now
- 4:16Speaker 5: apparently no one can trace that story back any further
- 4:19Speaker 5: than twenty twenty two.
- 4:20Speaker 4: Again, twenty twenty two.
- 4:26Speaker 5: Beggars belief that these massive projects that do they provide jobs,
- 4:31Speaker 5: they provide royalties, Everything was done properly in terms of
- 4:34Speaker 5: the application at the twelve hour basically was kibosh over
- 4:38Speaker 5: a story which honestly sounds like it's complete nonsense.
- 4:42Speaker 3: Well, even people within the indigenous community, people associated with
- 4:47Speaker 3: the Visual Land Council, have come to that determination, but
- 4:52Speaker 3: the Minister has sided with this group.
- 4:54Speaker 4: So here we are now.
- 4:55Speaker 3: It's been revealed that the federal government has spent more
- 4:58Speaker 3: than twenty five thousand on drama classes for just thirteen
- 5:03Speaker 3: Services of Australia employees in an effort to teach them
- 5:07Speaker 3: how to communicate with empathy.
- 5:11Speaker 4: The government agency listed the National Institute of.
- 5:14Speaker 3: Dramatic Arts neither to provide the training for its top
- 5:18Speaker 3: ranking leaders across two days. So that's that's pretty good.
- 5:22Speaker 3: That's twenty five thousand dollars for a couple of days.
- 5:25Speaker 3: Probably was a nice little junket or away from the office.
- 5:29Speaker 4: Not a great use of our money.
- 5:31Speaker 3: I wouldn't have thought, surely you can communicate with empathy
- 5:34Speaker 3: without prancing around in a nier class, probably doing interpretive dance.
- 5:39Speaker 5: I was on the phone to Services Australia this morning
- 5:42Speaker 5: just oh were they They were not very empathetic. I
- 5:45Speaker 5: don't think it's working. So they're not getting banged for
- 5:47Speaker 5: their buck. Look, I think the fact it's twelve people,
- 5:51Speaker 5: Look it was for one hundred people or one hundred
- 5:53Speaker 5: managers or whatever. You'd sort of say, well, well, possibly
- 5:57Speaker 5: this is ridiculous. And you've got Services Australia doesn't provide
- 6:00Speaker 5: very good services, and you had the story not long ago.
- 6:03Speaker 5: I think last year with a speech writer was being
- 6:05Speaker 5: paid three hundred thousand dollars a year for speech writing,
- 6:08Speaker 5: which is miles above the odds. This does not pass
- 6:12Speaker 5: any pub test whatsoever.
- 6:14Speaker 3: I tell you the public service, it's a different world entirely.
- 6:18Speaker 3: Now it's looking like Victoria is going to have more
- 6:21Speaker 3: bad policy, perhaps three more decades. Of the state's transported
- 6:25Speaker 3: infrastructure blueprint for the next thirty years.
- 6:28Speaker 4: Is calling for slashing.
- 6:30Speaker 3: Speed limits to just thirty kilometers an hour in local streets.
- 6:34Speaker 3: He wants to expand desalination plant capacity, build more tunnels.
- 6:39Speaker 4: Patrick. The projects here are extensive.
- 6:43Speaker 3: The cost has been put around seventy five billion dollars.
- 6:47Speaker 3: But I've got to question the wisdom of anybody putting
- 6:50Speaker 3: this plan together, who thinks it's fantastic to have thirty
- 6:53Speaker 3: kilometer limits across town. What's the point? Might as well
- 6:58Speaker 3: be out there, I don't know, going for a jog.
- 7:00Speaker 3: It's making the use of cars almost a nuisance.
- 7:06Speaker 4: If you have to go, you've got these Some of.
- 7:08Speaker 3: These streets are white boulevards and you're crawling along at
- 7:11Speaker 3: thirty kilometers.
- 7:12Speaker 5: It's the Nanny State gone mad.
- 7:14Speaker 6: Really.
- 7:14Speaker 5: I mean, I've driven down streets in Collingwood in the
- 7:17Speaker 5: north of Melbourne that are thirty kilometers an hour and
- 7:19Speaker 5: you can barely get up the speed hunt to get
- 7:21Speaker 5: over the other side. This is Look, I think the
- 7:26Speaker 5: big thing here is the fact that we've got no money.
- 7:28Speaker 5: I mean, Victoria's can't really afford a one year plan
- 7:31Speaker 5: at this stage if you're talking about seventy five billion
- 7:34Speaker 5: dollars for all these expenses, and it includes extending tram
- 7:38Speaker 5: routes and all sorts of things that are fairly controversial
- 7:41Speaker 5: or have a massive impact. Yes, cars obviously are second
- 7:45Speaker 5: and drivers a second class citizens. Now you can't get around,
- 7:50Speaker 5: and it's all about sort of pedestrian safety or whatever. Well,
- 7:54Speaker 5: there are all sorts of ways to have better safety
- 7:56Speaker 5: for pedestrians. Driving at the same rate as you could
- 7:59Speaker 5: on escape is not really the first pick, is it.
- 8:02Speaker 3: And you know what a good safety measure for pedestrians
- 8:05Speaker 3: is is not stepping in front of cars. Yes, so
- 8:07Speaker 3: that's something that has always worked for me, something that
- 8:10Speaker 3: perhaps could be taught at school. Now, before you go
- 8:17Speaker 3: and ask you about the Alan government here in Victoria,
- 8:20Speaker 3: they're just sent to Alan government trying to keep twenty
- 8:22Speaker 3: nine documents detailing complaints about CFMU misconduct on Victoria's big
- 8:29Speaker 3: build road and rail projects secret. They want to keep
- 8:32Speaker 3: this secret. With a Victorian Infrastructure Development Authority, the public
- 8:37Speaker 3: service unit running the projects is refusing to release them
- 8:41Speaker 3: to the press. The Australian newspaper has been trying to
- 8:45Speaker 3: get hold of this under the freedom of information laws,
- 8:49Speaker 3: but they're suppressing here seventeen other documents as well. We
- 8:54Speaker 3: are in the suppression state. Victoria has been called that.
- 8:57Speaker 4: But why would we not want to know.
- 9:00Speaker 3: What's happening on the big build projects, these projects that
- 9:03Speaker 3: are over budget, taking way longer than we were told.
- 9:07Speaker 4: Surely we should know what's happening.
- 9:08Speaker 5: Absolutely. Look, it's probably tens of billions of dollars that
- 9:11Speaker 5: has been sort of potentially misused here. We are entitled
- 9:15Speaker 5: to know exactly how this money got used. We know
- 9:18Speaker 5: that the CFMEAU, whether it's Queensland or Victoria, the price
- 9:22Speaker 5: of their projects that they work on a twenty five
- 9:25Speaker 5: to thirty percent more. What struck me about this story.
- 9:28Speaker 5: It's a very good story. I think the surveyor has
- 9:31Speaker 5: had a meeting which is sent to Allen and she
- 9:34Speaker 5: was very sympathetic and said, I understand there are delays
- 9:36Speaker 5: and so on, but I'm powerless to actually do anything
- 9:39Speaker 5: about it. This is the politician who actually administrates billions
- 9:44Speaker 5: of dollars, actually saying, well, I can't do anything about this,
- 9:48Speaker 5: and when it goes to the depth of the extortion
- 9:51Speaker 5: and the stronger tactics that have been applied for so long.
- 9:55Speaker 4: It's victoria for you. Patrick Carline, thanks for your time tonight.
- 9:59Speaker 3: Joining me is Institute of Public Affairs Research Fellow and
- 10:02Speaker 3: director of the IPA's Schools Program, Colleen Harken. Colleen, let's
- 10:08Speaker 3: talk about the Australian curriculum. Analysis of the curriculum shows
- 10:13Speaker 3: of the more than twenty four hundred lesson suggestions and
- 10:16Speaker 3: the revised curriculum, three quarters relate to Aboriginal antres Strait
- 10:21Speaker 3: Islander history and culture.
- 10:24Speaker 4: And it even mandates that.
- 10:26Speaker 3: Maths teachers incorporate Indigenous dance and storytelling into maths classes.
- 10:34Speaker 4: What more can you tell me about this revised curriculum.
- 10:39Speaker 3: It seems to be even more preoccupied with race and
- 10:42Speaker 3: climate and even more politicized.
- 10:45Speaker 1: It is so the National Curriculum is a body called
- 10:48Speaker 1: a Current that sets the national curriculum and it prioritizes
- 10:52Speaker 1: and it says its priority is Aboriginal and torres Straate
- 10:54Speaker 1: Islanders histories and culture, and sustainability, which is climate change, diversity, equity, inclusion,
- 10:59Speaker 1: all that kind of activist agender and it mandates that
- 11:02Speaker 1: it's in every subject, every year level, every opportunity. So
- 11:07Speaker 1: it's not just maths, it's physic it's art, it's science,
- 11:11Speaker 1: it's every single subject, every year level. The child is
- 11:15Speaker 1: exposed to this kind of activism within the curriculum.
- 11:17Speaker 4: And it's mandated.
- 11:19Speaker 3: It's not like the teachers have a suggestion, you may
- 11:22Speaker 3: like to do this.
- 11:23Speaker 1: They have to well, let's sort of what I call
- 11:26Speaker 1: a market is it states what the what they want
- 11:28Speaker 1: them to do, and then it gives them a whole
- 11:30Speaker 1: range of suggestions as to how they might go about
- 11:32Speaker 1: doing that. Okay, but it is mandated that these are priorities.
- 11:36Speaker 1: It actually specifically says these are the curriculum priorities.
- 11:40Speaker 3: Oh dear man, Now it seems like no amount of
- 11:43Speaker 3: activism is even enough. The Australian Human Rights Commission, which
- 11:47Speaker 3: we of course fund as taxpayers, has scolded schools for
- 11:51Speaker 3: celebrating Harmony Day on March twenty one, claiming that it
- 11:55Speaker 3: actually hides long standing systematic racial discrimination and that they
- 12:01Speaker 3: should rename the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination,
- 12:07Speaker 3: turning it the day from a protest against racial discrimination
- 12:11Speaker 3: into a celebration, so that seem to be upset that
- 12:14Speaker 3: this isn't angry and activist enough.
- 12:18Speaker 4: It's been celebrated.
- 12:19Speaker 3: People are celebrating different cultures and foods, and we.
- 12:24Speaker 4: Can't be happy in school.
- 12:25Speaker 3: We've just not always have a grievance, always just behating
- 12:29Speaker 3: the country.
- 12:31Speaker 4: Tell me about what's happening there.
- 12:32Speaker 3: And our school's taking notice of this service.
- 12:35Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 12:35Speaker 1: So there are about thirteen name days, Aboriginal and Toastrate
- 12:39Speaker 1: Island name Days, in addition to those cross curriculum priorities
- 12:43Speaker 1: we just spoke about. Now, Harmony Day in theory is
- 12:46Speaker 1: a really nice idea that we should celebrate our shared values,
- 12:50Speaker 1: but that's not what they're aiming at. This is again
- 12:53Speaker 1: a constant sort of activist agenda to divide us.
- 12:55Speaker 4: They don't want harmony.
- 12:57Speaker 1: What they want is this perpetual industry of griev and
- 13:00Speaker 1: they're teaching the children from very young to be indoctrinated
- 13:05Speaker 1: to that divisive agenda. We did a research article on
- 13:09Speaker 1: the Early Learning Framework, which is mandate by the government
- 13:13Speaker 1: for early learning centers, So we're talking children who are
- 13:15Speaker 1: literally in nappies who are mandated to doing a daily
- 13:19Speaker 1: acknowledgment to country to fly an Aboriginal flag.
- 13:23Speaker 4: And that's how we find.
- 13:24Speaker 1: Things like in prime in kindergartens where children are walking
- 13:27Speaker 1: in and touching the ground and saying always was, always
- 13:30Speaker 1: will be. This agenda is running all the way through
- 13:33Speaker 1: all of the institutions from the earliest of years, and it.
- 13:37Speaker 3: Does not stop once high school finishes. Right through the universities,
- 13:41Speaker 3: and mcquarie University has students been forced to sit through
- 13:45Speaker 3: a series of far left learning modules and in these
- 13:49Speaker 3: modules they are reportedly told that if you are living
- 13:52Speaker 3: in Australia and you are not Aboriginal or Torres Strait islander,
- 13:56Speaker 3: well you're a settler and deaf, war a guest and
- 13:59Speaker 3: Colin and I guess I understand then why we need
- 14:01Speaker 3: to have all these welcome to countries because the message
- 14:04Speaker 3: there is this isn't really your country.
- 14:07Speaker 4: It's not very inclusive, is it.
- 14:09Speaker 3: Well no, I've always said, as a migrant, I see
- 14:12Speaker 3: these acknowledgment of countries welcome to countries. Not only do
- 14:15Speaker 3: I see them as incoherent in many cases, but it's
- 14:19Speaker 3: a pc way of.
- 14:20Speaker 4: Saying, go back to where you came from. This place
- 14:23Speaker 4: isn't yours.
- 14:23Speaker 3: You're not as entitled to feel this is yours as
- 14:26Speaker 3: somebody else based on ethnicity.
- 14:29Speaker 4: I mean that is so toxic.
- 14:31Speaker 1: And how long do you have to be here before
- 14:33Speaker 1: they will consider you Australian? I mean at what stage?
- 14:37Speaker 4: Who am I? Who are you?
- 14:38Speaker 1: I mean you're an immigrant? You know I'm born here,
- 14:41Speaker 1: like we're all Australian. And this is the device.
- 14:43Speaker 4: You're a sessler.
- 14:44Speaker 3: This isn't If you go to mccurra University, you'll be
- 14:47Speaker 3: taught that doesn't matter. If you go back seven generations
- 14:50Speaker 3: and you have no other country in the world where
- 14:53Speaker 3: you have an allegiance or a link, you are still
- 14:56Speaker 3: a sessler.
- 14:57Speaker 4: You're a guest.
- 14:58Speaker 1: Yeah, and so then reader, it's not I wonder that
- 15:00Speaker 1: our young people don't want to defend Australia.
- 15:03Speaker 4: We did a survey that showed.
- 15:05Speaker 1: That almost half of our young eighteen to twenty four
- 15:08Speaker 1: year olds, if we're in the same situation as Ukraine
- 15:11Speaker 1: right now, they would not stay and fight. And why
- 15:13Speaker 1: would you If you've been told all along you don't
- 15:16Speaker 1: belong you hear, your presence is illegitimate, why would you
- 15:19Speaker 1: stay in fight?
- 15:20Speaker 3: Well, the whole country is not legitimate. There is on
- 15:23Speaker 3: stolen land. There was an invasion, there was a genocide.
- 15:26Speaker 3: When if you're taught to be ashamed of your history,
- 15:29Speaker 3: why would you go to wolf to try to defend
- 15:32Speaker 3: that country?
- 15:32Speaker 7: Correct?
- 15:33Speaker 1: And we spend all this money on universities.
- 15:35Speaker 4: We want.
- 15:35Speaker 1: The return on investment is to have a workforce and
- 15:39Speaker 1: a future generation that are independent and capable people.
- 15:42Speaker 4: But what we're churning out is just a bunch of activists.
- 15:45Speaker 3: We are, and a bunch of self loathing activists. It's
- 15:48Speaker 3: not even healthy activism. It's not actually activism that I
- 15:51Speaker 3: don't know. It could be enriching and make them happy
- 15:53Speaker 3: and make them productive. Before you go the IPA's education
- 15:58Speaker 3: program class action, it's had a tell me about that,
- 16:02Speaker 3: and tell me in thirty seconds how you're countering the
- 16:05Speaker 3: madness that's happening.
- 16:06Speaker 1: So we change it from class Actions now called the
- 16:08Speaker 1: IPAs Schools Program because it was sort of confused with
- 16:11Speaker 1: being to do with law that wasn't helpful. What we're
- 16:15Speaker 1: doing is providing free curriculum materials for teachers. They can
- 16:19Speaker 1: download it free from the IPS from Schools program dot
- 16:22Speaker 1: org dot au website. We've also done things like given
- 16:25Speaker 1: every primary school in the country a board game about
- 16:28Speaker 1: the First Fleet that positions the story of who we
- 16:32Speaker 1: are and how we can you know the Australian, the
- 16:34Speaker 1: first Fleet and the arrival of that. All of our
- 16:37Speaker 1: curriculum materials are free. It's a balanced view of our history.
- 16:41Speaker 1: We have a history to be proud of and we
- 16:43Speaker 1: should be proud of it, and the children should be
- 16:44Speaker 1: learning to be proud of it and to know the facts,
- 16:47Speaker 1: like the balance, So just.
- 16:48Speaker 3: To know the facts, just to actually get something other
- 16:51Speaker 3: than this black armband view of our entire history.
- 16:55Speaker 4: Colin Harkn, thanks so much for problem still to come.
- 16:58Speaker 4: A left is a losing it.
- 17:00Speaker 3: The spat between President Trump and President Zelenski intensifies. Koshagaida
- 17:06Speaker 3: is here to break it down.
- 17:16Speaker 4: Welcome back.
- 17:17Speaker 3: Now it's time for lefties losing it and let's have
- 17:20Speaker 3: a gander. The Oscars the night devoted to celebrating excellence
- 17:24Speaker 3: in cinema.
- 17:26Speaker 4: Well, except it's not anymore.
- 17:28Speaker 3: It's a massive leftist snallfest featuring a bunch of pretentious films.
- 17:32Speaker 3: No one's brought it to watch but satisfy the Academy's
- 17:36Speaker 3: diversity quotas or inclusion standards, as they call it, And
- 17:40Speaker 3: of course they started the ceremony with an incoherent land
- 17:45Speaker 3: acknowledgment delivered by actress Julianne Hoff.
- 17:48Speaker 8: We gather in celebration of the Oscars on the ancestral
- 17:51Speaker 8: lands of the Tonga, Tatavium and Chumash peopils, the traditional
- 17:55Speaker 8: caretakers of this water and land. We honor in p
- 17:58Speaker 8: our respects to indigenous communities here and around the world.
- 18:01Speaker 4: The what tribe? Now?
- 18:04Speaker 3: Didn't they slaughter the previous tribes that lived there? Matt
- 18:07Speaker 3: Walsh tweeted this response to the Oscars vacuous virtue signaling.
- 18:12Speaker 3: He wrote, she paid homage to the Tomba tribe, But
- 18:17Speaker 3: the Toma moved into southern California thousands of years after
- 18:21Speaker 3: he had already been occupied by more ancient tribe. They
- 18:25Speaker 3: killed and displaced the inhabitants and took over. If they
- 18:29Speaker 3: get to claim the title of indigenous, then so do we.
- 18:34Speaker 4: Interesting interesting point.
- 18:36Speaker 3: They're almost like lands and people have been conquered over
- 18:39Speaker 3: and over again throughout history, and perhaps assigning collective guilt
- 18:44Speaker 3: or collective reverence and praise to people based on their
- 18:49Speaker 3: color or ethnicity is not the best of ideas. But
- 18:54Speaker 3: back to the Oscars, and when you think about what
- 18:56Speaker 3: a far left lunatic asylum Hollywood has become, then you
- 19:01Speaker 3: won't be surprised that the most nominated film this year
- 19:04Speaker 3: was a Mexican musical about a transgender cartel leader. Now really,
- 19:10Speaker 3: the film Emilia Perez, had thirteen nominations, including for Best Picture,
- 19:16Speaker 3: and he even scored a Best Actress nomination for a
- 19:20Speaker 3: dude identifying as a woman, Carla Sophia Gascon.
- 19:24Speaker 4: In the end, the.
- 19:25Speaker 3: Film won two Oscars, including for Best Supporting Actress for
- 19:29Speaker 3: Zoe Saldana.
- 19:30Speaker 4: And let's have a look at her stellar work. This
- 19:33Speaker 4: is just amazing man two woman? Is it for you?
- 19:43Speaker 9: For me?
- 19:45Speaker 4: Yes?
- 19:46Speaker 3: She got an oscar for that, and the audience those
- 19:50Speaker 3: crazy enough to sit through that entire film got an
- 19:52Speaker 3: edge education in all the different types of trans operations.
- 20:00Speaker 7: Blasi lab, blasi, control, Lavin, god blastin, what is that?
- 20:05Speaker 4: Adama?
- 20:09Speaker 3: And it's not just actors who've been spewing activist nonsense.
- 20:12Speaker 3: Seeinger Pink is never one to miss out on an
- 20:15Speaker 3: opportunity to make a full of herself.
- 20:17Speaker 4: He she is earlier in the year claiming that.
- 20:20Speaker 7: What ladies and gentlemen and every other gender that absolutely exists.
- 20:25Speaker 5: I give you the incredible genre.
- 20:29Speaker 4: Yeah, but they don't pink. There are two, count them two.
- 20:34Speaker 3: Everything else's performative attention seeking. Now to a transactivist posing
- 20:40Speaker 3: this important question, the answer is quite obvious, I would
- 20:44Speaker 3: have thought, but sadly lost on this soul.
- 20:47Speaker 10: So trans people are considered a danger to women in sports,
- 20:53Speaker 10: yet they're considered a weakness to the United States military.
- 20:58Speaker 4: Make it make sense, MAGA.
- 21:00Speaker 3: I would have thought, that's because the US Army isn't
- 21:03Speaker 3: fighting against female combatants exclusively. If it were, then perhaps
- 21:09Speaker 3: your question would be valid. But alas, you just went
- 21:12Speaker 3: and made a massive full of yourself and provided more
- 21:15Speaker 3: content for lefties losing it.
- 21:17Speaker 4: So I do thank you for that. Let's have a
- 21:19Speaker 4: look now at.
- 21:20Speaker 3: The great work of Charlie Kirk. He goes to university
- 21:24Speaker 3: campuses around America debating lost lefties, and this next gal
- 21:29Speaker 3: needs all the help she can get.
- 21:31Speaker 11: Let's say there's you know, a black kid right now?
- 21:34Speaker 11: Would you rather have that black kid have a role
- 21:36Speaker 11: model be Kendrick Lamar or Clarence.
- 21:38Speaker 8: Thomas Kendrick obviously.
- 21:42Speaker 11: So not the not the black American on the United
- 21:45Speaker 11: States Supreme Court.
- 21:46Speaker 8: No, he's he's trying to ban interracial marriage.
- 21:48Speaker 4: He's trying to like do it.
- 21:49Speaker 11: Wow, he's in an interracial marriage. He literally like he's
- 21:54Speaker 11: married to a white woman. Yeah, I know the Roe v.
- 21:56Speaker 12: Wage thing, Like goes again, he's trying.
- 21:59Speaker 11: To ban his own marriage.
- 22:00Speaker 4: Yes, what can you say?
- 22:02Speaker 3: But it's not just the students, it's the teachers too
- 22:06Speaker 3: that Charlie Kirk has exposed for being out a fools.
- 22:10Speaker 3: Here he asks the teacher a simple question, what is
- 22:13Speaker 3: a woman? The guy thinks he's prepared for this obvious question,
- 22:17Speaker 3: but watching flounder.
- 22:19Speaker 11: For teacher, Yes, what is a woman?
- 22:21Speaker 6: What is a woman?
- 22:25Speaker 2: Oh?
- 22:25Speaker 6: Buddy?
- 22:26Speaker 12: Hi?
- 22:27Speaker 6: So we define gender as a set of preferences that
- 22:29Speaker 6: you have, excuse me, gender, gender the set of preferences
- 22:39Speaker 6: we have women. Woman is a social construct that we've
- 22:45Speaker 6: agreed upon. Typically we imagine womanhood as makeup or whatever
- 22:50Speaker 6: it is. There is a difference between the word woman
- 22:57Speaker 6: and being a biological female. Women is a social construct
- 23:02Speaker 6: that we use. Listen for a suck, I'm telling you
- 23:05Speaker 6: what it means.
- 23:05Speaker 4: There you go.
- 23:06Speaker 3: It's just a set of preferences, a social constructs. So
- 23:10Speaker 3: if you like makeup and the color pink, then you're
- 23:13Speaker 3: a woman. I mean, can you get more backward than that?
- 23:16Speaker 3: They had more enlightened values in the nineteen twenties. These
- 23:19Speaker 3: are the so called progressives these days, that's what they
- 23:22Speaker 3: call themselves. And now, educator, I continue to dig himself
- 23:26Speaker 3: a hole trying to answer a question which a child
- 23:30Speaker 3: could easily answer.
- 23:31Speaker 6: Women is a social construct. We agree on these set
- 23:34Speaker 6: of preferences. If I tell you that I'm a man
- 23:37Speaker 6: is because I want you to know that I'm like
- 23:38Speaker 6: these set of preferences. If I tell you I'm a woman,
- 23:41Speaker 6: is because I want you to know that I agree
- 23:42Speaker 6: with these set of preferences.
- 23:43Speaker 11: And men give birth?
- 23:46Speaker 6: Can men? Or can males? If you listen to your
- 23:49Speaker 6: bio professors, you'd understand there's the difference between biology and
- 23:53Speaker 6: what we think.
- 23:53Speaker 11: Of I want to thank you for proving a great point. Well,
- 23:56Speaker 11: you are why we should eliminate the Department of Education.
- 23:58Speaker 6: Thank you very much.
- 24:01Speaker 3: That is scary. That is who's teaching your kids. That's
- 24:03Speaker 3: why you save up for those college fees. I'll tell you,
- 24:07Speaker 3: Charlie Kirk is so effective because he just gives them
- 24:10Speaker 3: enough rope and they do the rest and no wonder
- 24:13Speaker 3: the lefties are tearing down posters for his events.
- 24:17Speaker 4: Look at this mug entitled brat Why do you feel
- 24:23Speaker 4: they need to do that?
- 24:25Speaker 8: Why do you feel they need to do that?
- 24:27Speaker 4: Why do you feel they need to tip tear posters? Dound? Okay,
- 24:30Speaker 4: I don't like them?
- 24:32Speaker 7: Why I think.
- 24:35Speaker 4: You know what? Why?
- 24:39Speaker 3: Joining me now is Sky News contributor Kosher Gator Kosher
- 24:42Speaker 3: Let's jump into the intensifying war of words between President
- 24:46Speaker 3: Trump and President Zelenski, who has completely shifted from pledging
- 24:51Speaker 3: to negotiate a piece still, President Zelenski now says the
- 24:54Speaker 3: end of the war is very very far away, a
- 24:58Speaker 3: statement that has seen a swift response from the White House.
- 25:02Speaker 10: He said he thinks it was going to go on
- 25:05Speaker 10: for a long time, and he'd better not be right
- 25:09Speaker 10: about that. That's all I'm saying.
- 25:10Speaker 3: President Trump also wrote, this is the worst statement that
- 25:14Speaker 3: could have been made by Zelenski, and America.
- 25:17Speaker 4: Will not put up with it for much longer. Kosher
- 25:22Speaker 4: Trump also.
- 25:23Speaker 3: Pointed out in that statement the Kiir Starmer's comments and
- 25:26Speaker 3: the comments from other European leaders who have pledged to
- 25:29Speaker 3: support Ukraine. They've also said they can't do the job
- 25:34Speaker 3: without the US. That's an important point that much of
- 25:37Speaker 3: the media has missed, and I do wonder how that's
- 25:40Speaker 3: going to happen with relations at this point.
- 25:44Speaker 12: So as the dust from that dust up settles, there's
- 25:47Speaker 12: a picture that's clarifying it's coming out, which is, on
- 25:50Speaker 12: the one hand, you have a war that is not
- 25:53Speaker 12: winnable and was never winnable without the US and the
- 25:56Speaker 12: US involvement in large, large measure to the tune of
- 25:59Speaker 12: one hundred billion a year or more, plus this looming
- 26:02Speaker 12: specter of security guaranties in whatever shape or form that
- 26:06Speaker 12: took or was implied under the past administration for four years.
- 26:10Speaker 12: And on the other hand, you have an election that
- 26:11Speaker 12: took place, and Trump is a reflection of that election,
- 26:14Speaker 12: which is that the American electorate has long time not
- 26:17Speaker 12: been in favor of this. It is dropping like a
- 26:19Speaker 12: stone their support for the level of US involvement, and
- 26:22Speaker 12: Trump is reflecting that and personifying that. And it seems
- 26:24Speaker 12: like President Zelenski has not caught up to that. He
- 26:27Speaker 12: hasn't updated his software yet in his mind. Maybe it's
- 26:30Speaker 12: his own failing, Maybe it's that he's just been in
- 26:33Speaker 12: sort of the eastern East Coast, West coast bubbles whenever
- 26:36Speaker 12: he visits, and he doesn't understand the pulse of the American.
- 26:38Speaker 3: Electric really is advised better than that. This is what
- 26:41Speaker 3: was astonishing to so many. It was astonishing to me.
- 26:44Speaker 3: It was astonishing to a lot of pro Ukrainian experts
- 26:47Speaker 3: who been commenting on this crisis for three years, that
- 26:51Speaker 3: he seemed to think it was twenty twenty or twenty
- 26:53Speaker 3: twenty two. He did not go into that meeting with
- 26:57Speaker 3: any sort of appreciation of how the public mood has shifted.
- 27:02Speaker 3: What Trump can paint on and this is not a
- 27:04Speaker 3: position Trump has come to just in the last week.
- 27:07Speaker 4: He can paignt on this.
- 27:08Speaker 3: It should be crystal clear where the current administration stads.
- 27:12Speaker 12: Absolutely, it's where he has stood previously, even before he
- 27:15Speaker 12: entered political office. He has long time been against US involvements.
- 27:18Speaker 12: He's very much a non interventionalist. Everybody knows this. To
- 27:21Speaker 12: the point of advice, It almost sounds like to the contrary,
- 27:23Speaker 12: he's been getting really bad advice because he met with
- 27:25Speaker 12: Democrat senators before that meeting, like one hour before that
- 27:29Speaker 12: infamous meeting, had bad move and received advice from Mark
- 27:32Speaker 12: Kelly and Murphy of Connecticut and others who seemed to
- 27:36Speaker 12: have They ran to their ex feeds afterwards and presented
- 27:39Speaker 12: little snippets where they were saying, we think it's a
- 27:41Speaker 12: bad deal. It's reducing this to business transaction, et cetera.
- 27:44Speaker 12: So he seems to totally have misread how serious Trump
- 27:48Speaker 12: and Vance are. These are not just words. And now
- 27:50Speaker 12: there's reports that they're cutting off potentially all aid, humanitarian
- 27:53Speaker 12: and military. So these stakes just got a lot higher
- 27:55Speaker 12: for him.
- 27:55Speaker 3: I think that is that pause is going to be
- 28:00Speaker 3: the wake up call that we need now that if
- 28:03Speaker 3: you actually do want to have any sort of meaningful,
- 28:05Speaker 3: lasting piece, you have to come to the negotiation table
- 28:09Speaker 3: with the willingness to negotiate. Otherwise we're going to have
- 28:14Speaker 3: another three years of this disastrous war that the destruction
- 28:20Speaker 3: in Ukraine in particular is just heartbreaking now Donald Trump.
- 28:25Speaker 3: Kosher also pointed out Kiir Starmer's comments, and there's been
- 28:28Speaker 3: a lot of commentary about those comments and that of
- 28:32Speaker 3: other leaders who've pledged to stand by Ukraine.
- 28:37Speaker 4: Let's have a listen to what Kiir Starmer had to say.
- 28:40Speaker 2: The UK has prepared to back this with boots on
- 28:43Speaker 2: the ground and planes in the air. Together with others,
- 28:48Speaker 2: Europe must do the heavy listing. But to support peace
- 28:52Speaker 2: in our continent and to succeed this effort must have
- 28:57Speaker 2: strong US backing. We're working with the US on this
- 29:02Speaker 2: point after my meeting with President Trump last week. And
- 29:07Speaker 2: let me be clear, we agree with the President on
- 29:10Speaker 2: the urgent need for a durable peace Kosher.
- 29:13Speaker 3: He went very quickly there, from boots on the ground
- 29:16Speaker 3: to this plan is dependent on the US backing it too.
- 29:21Speaker 3: He agreed with President Trump about the urgent need for
- 29:25Speaker 3: a durable peace.
- 29:27Speaker 4: How do you see that statement?
- 29:28Speaker 3: Because people have listened to that first section about boots
- 29:31Speaker 3: on the ground, the whole thing only goes for thirty seconds,
- 29:34Speaker 3: and they seem to have disregarded the subsequent twenty seconds.
- 29:38Speaker 12: And in this datage of social media, you can just
- 29:40Speaker 12: clip what you need and then engineering narrators around that.
- 29:43Speaker 12: But it's really it was funny for me because it
- 29:45Speaker 12: reminded me of that great quote from the lead and
- 29:47Speaker 12: Greed Margaret Thatcher, who's seat he currently sits in, who
- 29:51Speaker 12: said the problem with socialism has eventually you run out
- 29:53Speaker 12: of other people's money, and he and all of Europe
- 29:55Speaker 12: is kind of showing that not at a national level,
- 29:58Speaker 12: but at a global level. Easy for them to talk
- 30:00Speaker 12: tough when it relies on spending American money and maybe
- 30:03Speaker 12: American troops. You can add troops to that sentence in
- 30:05Speaker 12: addition to money. And so they're all paper tigers. And
- 30:09Speaker 12: this Ukraine thing is sort of a flashpoint and what
- 30:11Speaker 12: Trump is trying to do in terms of recalibrating the
- 30:14Speaker 12: European US alliance as it released to defense more broadly,
- 30:17Speaker 12: and this is just an accelerant, I think, to that
- 30:20Speaker 12: endgame that he wants to get to.
- 30:22Speaker 3: And we do hear a lot from the European countries
- 30:25Speaker 3: about how much they're doing for Ukraine, how much money
- 30:29Speaker 3: they're contributing, how strong their support is. Meanwhile, this is
- 30:33Speaker 3: the reality there. You imported Russian fossil fuels in the
- 30:38Speaker 3: third year of the evasion. The amount that they imported
- 30:41Speaker 3: surpassed the eighteen point seven billion of financial aid they
- 30:46Speaker 3: sent to Ukraine in twenty twenty four. So Kosha, on
- 30:48Speaker 3: the one hand, they are providing some aid, none of
- 30:52Speaker 3: them as much as the US, but they're also enriching
- 30:57Speaker 3: Russia because there are inn energy policies are so broken
- 31:02Speaker 3: that they have become reliant on Russia for their energy.
- 31:07Speaker 12: That's such a great point because there's been a lot
- 31:09Speaker 12: of focus on one side of the ledger, which is
- 31:10Speaker 12: how much money the US is spending versus them on defense,
- 31:13Speaker 12: and there's some dispute around the number we've put into Ukraine.
- 31:15Speaker 12: But the point is nobody disputes of the US is
- 31:18Speaker 12: carrying the line's share of it. But the other side
- 31:20Speaker 12: of the ledsuer what you're showing is fascinating too, because
- 31:23Speaker 12: if they really cared, they would, I don't know, Germany
- 31:26Speaker 12: would turn back on their nuclear industry that they decimated
- 31:30Speaker 12: for green and other reasons. That would be one way
- 31:32Speaker 12: to weaken them, maybe buy more from the US, maybe
- 31:35Speaker 12: cut other types of deals. They're not doing that, so
- 31:37Speaker 12: it's all talk, little action unless it's easy action like
- 31:41Speaker 12: sanctioning Russia or freezing some of their assets in the
- 31:43Speaker 12: banking sector. They've done a little bit there, but not
- 31:45Speaker 12: really much more. And unless Zelensky comes back to the table,
- 31:49Speaker 12: I think you're just going to see this whole trend continue, and.
- 31:53Speaker 3: All this talk about the Trump administration is pro Russia
- 31:57Speaker 3: propute to this absolute idiom nonsense.
- 32:01Speaker 4: Passing for analysis, let's not forget.
- 32:04Speaker 3: Even in the first Trump term, he was in Europe
- 32:07Speaker 3: telling Germany and other countries do not become reliant on
- 32:12Speaker 3: Russian energy. It is a weakness, and they laughed at
- 32:16Speaker 3: him Kosher. They did not heed that advice at all.
- 32:19Speaker 3: And here we are where they are emboldening, enriching the
- 32:23Speaker 3: Putin regime at a time when they're saying that we
- 32:27Speaker 3: stand with Ukraine.
- 32:29Speaker 12: Great point, and so many of the things that Trump says,
- 32:32Speaker 12: they age really well when they come out of his mouth.
- 32:34Speaker 4: People don't like them.
- 32:35Speaker 12: He's a little bit coarse, he's a little bit rough
- 32:37Speaker 12: around the edges, but they always age and he always
- 32:39Speaker 12: ends up being true. And that was something that was
- 32:41Speaker 12: very prescient, as are many other things that he said.
- 32:43Speaker 12: And on the flip side, a lot of these European
- 32:45Speaker 12: leaders are not exactly sympathetic figures. Certainly not kurre Steimer
- 32:49Speaker 12: among the electorate, not Zelenski. A lot of people just
- 32:51Speaker 12: don't like him personally in terms of his demeanor and
- 32:54Speaker 12: the amount of travel he does. And he goes to
- 32:56Speaker 12: awards shows and has rung the bell at the Stock Exchange.
- 32:59Speaker 4: Fashion magazine.
- 33:00Speaker 12: Yes, here's aisympthetic figure. And on the side. They're trying
- 33:03Speaker 12: to paint Trump as a stewge of Russia, and that
- 33:05Speaker 12: whole thing has lost as potency, so that's not going
- 33:08Speaker 12: to work anymore.
- 33:09Speaker 4: No, I think it had a bit more.
- 33:12Speaker 3: Credibility when they were running that entire Russian collusion hoax,
- 33:16Speaker 3: not credibility, that's the wrong word. But people were believing
- 33:20Speaker 3: that hysteria. But since that's been completely debunked, it just
- 33:24Speaker 3: sounds like desperation. And on Europe here is some more
- 33:29Speaker 3: sobering data. Again, Europeans, many of them feel that Ukraine
- 33:34Speaker 3: should be getting more support. The polling shows that you
- 33:37Speaker 3: can see that there, but the polling also shows that
- 33:41Speaker 3: they don't want that support to come for their country.
- 33:45Speaker 3: As you can see, they're even the countries with the
- 33:47Speaker 3: highest percentage of people wanting greater support for Ukraine, Denmark
- 33:51Speaker 3: there is at the top of the list. Sixty six
- 33:53Speaker 3: percent think Ukraine deserves more support, but only seventeen percent
- 33:58Speaker 3: of Dan's kosher what.
- 33:59Speaker 4: Denm to increase its support.
- 34:02Speaker 3: It really just sums up this European virtue signaling where
- 34:09Speaker 3: they talk a big game, but really even their own
- 34:12Speaker 3: populations don't have the appetite for greater support and this
- 34:16Speaker 3: is on their doorsteps.
- 34:17Speaker 4: I don't know.
- 34:18Speaker 3: I see how people think Americans should care more about this.
- 34:22Speaker 3: You shouldn't have an America first approach in the United
- 34:25Speaker 3: States when this conflict is in Europe and the Europeans
- 34:30Speaker 3: seem to be a little bit apathetic about it.
- 34:33Speaker 12: Yeah, it's going to be a big reckoning for them
- 34:34Speaker 12: because the flip side of them stepping up spending on
- 34:38Speaker 12: defense and maybe them providing the security guarantee is going
- 34:41Speaker 12: to mean cutting back spending, austerity measures, these big lavish
- 34:44Speaker 12: social safety nets that Europe has loved and had for
- 34:47Speaker 12: half a century. There are meaningful repercussions from this for
- 34:50Speaker 12: them to kind of recalibrate their approach to government as
- 34:54Speaker 12: a whole. And the other thing about that is that's
- 34:56Speaker 12: very useful. Is it gets to the crux of the point,
- 34:59Speaker 12: which is, yes, we all support this war ending, We
- 35:02Speaker 12: support Ukraine's right to sovereignty. We certainly support their soldiers
- 35:05Speaker 12: and civilians who've been harmed and killed and injured and displaced.
- 35:09Speaker 12: We support democracy. Everybody supports those things. But when the
- 35:11Speaker 12: rubber hits the road, what does it mean in terms
- 35:13Speaker 12: of prioritization and you as a nation spending money and
- 35:16Speaker 12: spending troops to do that. That's where things shift because
- 35:20Speaker 12: we live in reality, we don't live in utopia. And
- 35:22Speaker 12: that's when that even the DN see that, and everybody
- 35:24Speaker 12: sees it, but the leaders don't seem to want to
- 35:26Speaker 12: acknowledge it.
- 35:26Speaker 3: Well, most people do see it, but sadly the bulk
- 35:29Speaker 3: of the media seems to be not living in reality.
- 35:32Speaker 3: They're living in some fantasy world. Well, it's some sort
- 35:36Speaker 3: of Greta Thumberg approach to geopolitics, where you know what
- 35:41Speaker 3: you want to happen must happen regardless of the reality.
- 35:45Speaker 3: And the reality is Ukraine is losing this war. America
- 35:49Speaker 3: doesn't want to keep funding it. And either you surrender
- 35:53Speaker 3: to Russia, which nobody wants. You keep fighting with backing
- 35:59Speaker 3: of European countries and the US soldiers on the ground,
- 36:03Speaker 3: which could spark World War III with a nuclear power.
- 36:07Speaker 4: I don't think anybody wants that either.
- 36:09Speaker 3: Or you negotiate a peace still that's advantageous to Ukraine.
- 36:12Speaker 3: And that's where we were before this meltdown in the
- 36:16Speaker 3: Oval Office, and we've seen many pro Ukraine foreign policy experts,
- 36:22Speaker 3: those who have championed extra funding for Ukraine from the
- 36:25Speaker 3: US have admired Zelenski for many years, be appalled by
- 36:29Speaker 3: his antics in the White House and what has followed,
- 36:33Speaker 3: and among them is Washington Post columnist Mark Theeson, who
- 36:36Speaker 3: has written a piece that saying Zelenski must mend the
- 36:41Speaker 3: breach with Trump or resign. Koshiki details Zelenski's conduct in
- 36:47Speaker 3: that fifty minute press conference leading up to that clash.
- 36:50Speaker 3: Everyone's seen the clash, but what led up to it
- 36:53Speaker 3: that fifteen minutes. If you've watched the entire thing, it
- 36:55Speaker 3: gives you a very different perspective. And he called presidents
- 37:00Speaker 3: Ski's behavior unnecessary and reckless and questioned why he'd be
- 37:04Speaker 3: so rude to Trump in front of the media when
- 37:08Speaker 3: Trump was offering him a really advantageous deal. He was
- 37:11Speaker 3: getting a great deal of what he wanted, and there
- 37:15Speaker 3: were even concessions made, you know, quite late in proceedings.
- 37:19Speaker 12: When you've last Mark Theesen and Lindsey Graham, by the way,
- 37:22Speaker 12: who's been on a fire excoriating Zelenski, he was the
- 37:25Speaker 12: most pro war US involvement senator that we have. That
- 37:30Speaker 12: is a signal that he did misstep here in the
- 37:32Speaker 12: not everybody in international media and even US media seeing
- 37:35Speaker 12: it that way. And this was a great piece pae
- 37:37Speaker 12: Mark Deson because he went through the entire forty nine
- 37:40Speaker 12: minutes and forty of those forty nine minutes where actually
- 37:43Speaker 12: Trump was very magnanimous, very cordial, and throughout that time
- 37:46Speaker 12: there are multiple points at which Zelenski was kind of
- 37:48Speaker 12: golding him.
- 37:49Speaker 3: When you watch the whole thing, I've got to say,
- 37:51Speaker 3: one of the more shocking things was how patient President
- 37:55Speaker 3: Trump was.
- 37:56Speaker 4: That's not his style.
- 37:57Speaker 3: He lets so much go to the keeper until at
- 38:01Speaker 3: at some point it was too much and he had
- 38:04Speaker 3: to step in and check Zelenski. But there was a
- 38:07Speaker 3: lot of disrespect, a lot of behavior that.
- 38:11Speaker 4: Trump would normally tolerate up until that point.
- 38:14Speaker 12: Absolutely, and that point was when he said. Zelenski said
- 38:18Speaker 12: that you know what, you will feel it too, because
- 38:20Speaker 12: you have an ocean. That's why you don't feel it.
- 38:21Speaker 4: Now, you will feel it too.
- 38:22Speaker 12: And at that moment you can see Trump's entire demeanor change.
- 38:25Speaker 12: His face lit up, and he said, American people are
- 38:27Speaker 12: watching this.
- 38:28Speaker 4: You do not come here.
- 38:28Speaker 12: You're in no position to see that.
- 38:30Speaker 3: Absolutely, and it was an astonishing comment to suggest that
- 38:33Speaker 3: America somehow should be fearful of a Russian invasion. Koshigeta,
- 38:38Speaker 3: thank you so much for your time. Pleasure still to come,
- 38:40Speaker 3: Milania Trump at the Capitol.
- 38:43Speaker 4: Why is the First Lady becoming increasingly political? Alex Steyne
- 38:48Speaker 4: is unleased.
- 38:57Speaker 3: You're watching the Reader Penny Show, and now the world's
- 39:00Speaker 3: media is again engaging in hyperbole, shrieking in unison about
- 39:05Speaker 3: President Trump's attempts to engineer a peace still between Russia
- 39:08Speaker 3: and Ukraine.
- 39:09Speaker 4: But Donald Trump's approach, one he.
- 39:11Speaker 3: Articulated at length during the election campaign, is actually popular
- 39:16Speaker 3: with Americans who are sick of funding these endless wars.
- 39:20Speaker 3: Even CNN can't deny that reality.
- 39:23Speaker 11: Well, I think the easiest way we can kind of
- 39:24Speaker 11: just ask this is do Americans like the way that
- 39:27Speaker 11: Trump's handling his job in compared to how they felt
- 39:29Speaker 11: about Joe Biden?
- 39:29Speaker 4: So this is the net approval rating.
- 39:31Speaker 11: You look at Joe Biden back in twenty twenty four,
- 39:33Speaker 11: he was twenty two points underwater.
- 39:35Speaker 4: Holy cow, you look at Donald Trump. It's just a
- 39:38Speaker 4: different planet entirely.
- 39:40Speaker 10: I mean, the gulf between these two is wider than
- 39:42Speaker 10: the Gulf of America or Mexico, depending on which side
- 39:44Speaker 10: of the are you stand on He's at plus two.
- 39:46Speaker 4: So look at this.
- 39:48Speaker 6: Particular point, Americans are giving Donald Trump the benefit of
- 39:50Speaker 6: the doubt.
- 39:51Speaker 11: He's doing considerably better than Joe Biden was.
- 39:54Speaker 4: Doing on the handling of the Russia Ukraine conflict.
- 39:57Speaker 3: Joining me now is comic and host of Primetime with
- 40:00Speaker 3: Alex Stein on Blaze TV. Alex Stein. Those numbers are
- 40:05Speaker 3: for all voters, but among Republican voters, amongst Trumps supporters,
- 40:09Speaker 3: the figures are much higher.
- 40:12Speaker 4: And I've got to.
- 40:12Speaker 3: Say it's mighty nice to see CNN forced to.
- 40:17Speaker 4: Report all of that.
- 40:19Speaker 7: Yeah, I know, it does feel nice to see them
- 40:22Speaker 7: have to actually, you know, show Donald Trump in a
- 40:25Speaker 7: positive light. But I still don't believe anything that's CNN
- 40:28Speaker 7: posts with numbers. I don't trust them whatsoever. But listen,
- 40:31Speaker 7: people are sick of it. There's people struggling in California
- 40:34Speaker 7: with the wildfires, there's people struggling in North Carolina, and
- 40:37Speaker 7: there's people that are just struggling because of the inflation
- 40:39Speaker 7: that Biden caused us. So listen, we're sick of sending
- 40:42Speaker 7: billions of dollars to Ukraine where American citizens on both
- 40:45Speaker 7: sides of the aisle are struggling, So we're sick of
- 40:47Speaker 7: this warrant in his end right now.
- 40:51Speaker 3: Now, today we had the first Lady at the Capitol.
- 40:55Speaker 3: She attended a roundtable in support of the Take It
- 40:59Speaker 3: Down Act, is a bill that seeks to protect people
- 41:02Speaker 3: from the others sharing non consensual sexually explicit images as
- 41:08Speaker 3: well as deep fake pornography.
- 41:11Speaker 4: It's a relatively new issue. Let's hear from Millennia.
- 41:16Speaker 9: A fifteen year old, brave young woman, Aliston Spears, used
- 41:21Speaker 9: AI to create non consensual intimate images of her and
- 41:28Speaker 9: then spread the images across social media. They superimposed her
- 41:34Speaker 9: face into pornographic content without her consent, solely to humilate Alex.
- 41:41Speaker 3: I've always seen her as a massive asset and underutilized asset,
- 41:47Speaker 3: I would argue in the Trump cap she's clearly passionate
- 41:51Speaker 3: about this project.
- 41:53Speaker 7: Well, you know, I think Taylor Swift will agree with
- 41:56Speaker 7: Millennia that this is very important. And you know, this
- 41:58Speaker 7: is a serious issue that happens with not just well
- 42:01Speaker 7: known people on the Internet, but small unknown people. So
- 42:05Speaker 7: you know, you have no privacy, and I'm happy that
- 42:07Speaker 7: Milania is actually doing something to protect people's privacy.
- 42:10Speaker 3: And well, I wasn't even aware that these deep fakes
- 42:14Speaker 3: were being used, I don't know, to blackmail people, to
- 42:17Speaker 3: intimidate them, so where they just manufacture pornography that features
- 42:23Speaker 3: someone's face and then use that to terrorize them. So
- 42:28Speaker 3: it is frightening what they're able to do these days.
- 42:31Speaker 4: Alex.
- 42:33Speaker 7: Oh yeah, I mean with technology, you can make anything
- 42:35Speaker 7: look real. So it's a very scary dark future with
- 42:39Speaker 7: the technology that they can do with all of this
- 42:42Speaker 7: AI generated pornography. So this is necessary and I hope
- 42:47Speaker 7: that we can stop it. But Reata, I don't know
- 42:48Speaker 7: if you can stop AI generated images like this. It's
- 42:52Speaker 7: just it's going to be difficult.
- 42:56Speaker 3: Now I've got some good news, more good news from
- 42:59Speaker 3: the border. Illegal crossings have plummeted further. Latest data shows
- 43:04Speaker 3: that February was the lowest illegal crossings in history. That's
- 43:10Speaker 3: the clime they're from the White House, just eight thousand
- 43:13Speaker 3: to three hundred and twenty six.
- 43:16Speaker 4: Alex.
- 43:17Speaker 3: They said this couldn't be done. They said this was
- 43:22Speaker 3: issues that were.
- 43:23Speaker 4: That America could not address.
- 43:25Speaker 3: The people were being persecuted in countries in South America
- 43:30Speaker 3: and they were fleeing for their life and nothing was
- 43:33Speaker 3: going to stop the flow of illegal immigrants, and Donald
- 43:37Speaker 3: Trump within a month has got the numbers down to this.
- 43:41Speaker 4: I mean, this is astonishing.
- 43:44Speaker 7: Well, you know, and I'm not trying to lessen all
- 43:47Speaker 7: the great work that Trump administration has done, but really
- 43:49Speaker 7: and truly, they've just stopped people from coming here by
- 43:52Speaker 7: not subsidizing their trips here by giving them free hotel
- 43:54Speaker 7: rooms and free flights around the country. So, yes, Donald
- 43:57Speaker 7: Trump is doing a great job. But all he had
- 43:58Speaker 7: to do was say stop coming, not getting a free
- 44:00Speaker 7: handout anymore, and now they can't afford to come here
- 44:03Speaker 7: on their own. So Tom Holman's doing a great job.
- 44:05Speaker 7: President Trump is doing a great job. But this is
- 44:07Speaker 7: a simple problem that they could have solved four years ago.
- 44:10Speaker 7: And listen, I understand there are people that are having
- 44:12Speaker 7: issues in countries, and there are, you know, real reasons
- 44:15Speaker 7: why a person would need to claim asylum, but we
- 44:17Speaker 7: have had an open border policy where people have been
- 44:20Speaker 7: able to manipulate it and just say that they're claiming
- 44:22Speaker 7: asylum and come into our country and receive better social
- 44:25Speaker 7: security benefits or social services than even some of our
- 44:28Speaker 7: military veterans. So it's absolutely disgusting and the Trump administration
- 44:32Speaker 7: has put their foot down, and now people are less
- 44:35Speaker 7: motivated to come here and illegally across our border.
- 44:39Speaker 3: Well, I always knew that this would happen, but the
- 44:43Speaker 3: speed at which it has happened has surprised me.
- 44:46Speaker 4: It has just been.
- 44:49Speaker 3: Amazing how quickly they have just pulled those pull factors
- 44:54Speaker 3: off the table. And guess what if you take the
- 44:56Speaker 3: sugar off the table, the numbers stop coming.
- 45:00Speaker 4: Canada and Mexico, I'm very happy they've run out of time.
- 45:04Speaker 4: The tariffs are right.
- 45:05Speaker 11: Is there any room left for Canada and Mexico to
- 45:07Speaker 11: make a deal before midnight?
- 45:08Speaker 6: And should we expect those Chinese tariffs the extra extra
- 45:11Speaker 6: ten percent.
- 45:12Speaker 10: To take a room left or Mexico or for Canada. No,
- 45:15Speaker 10: the tariffs, you know, they're all set. They go into effect.
- 45:18Speaker 3: Tomorrow, alex We know Canada and Mexico understandably unhappy about
- 45:24Speaker 3: all this.
- 45:25Speaker 4: What's the reaction being in.
- 45:27Speaker 3: The States because imports from those countries are going to
- 45:31Speaker 3: cost more? Is there any sort of a backlash to
- 45:34Speaker 3: these tariffs?
- 45:36Speaker 7: You know, I do think there is going to be
- 45:38Speaker 7: a you know, a temporary backlash where you know, it's
- 45:40Speaker 7: going to cost us some money in the short term,
- 45:42Speaker 7: but I think in the long term it's going to
- 45:43Speaker 7: be better for our country if we can actually, you know,
- 45:46Speaker 7: tax these people correctly, because we've been giving them basically
- 45:49Speaker 7: free money, and Mexico needs to play ball, and I
- 45:52Speaker 7: don't think they've done enough, and they haven't stepped up
- 45:54Speaker 7: to the plate enough and to satisfy Donald Trump. So
- 45:57Speaker 7: at this point, I think they're necessary, and yes, we
- 45:59Speaker 7: are going to feel the pain. But now you see
- 46:01Speaker 7: car manufacturers saying they're gonna build cars, They're gonna build
- 46:03Speaker 7: Hondas in America. So in the end it will be
- 46:05Speaker 7: better for our country, even though it might hurt in.
- 46:07Speaker 11: The short term.
- 46:10Speaker 3: Well, yeah, this is all about long term boosting manufacturing
- 46:14Speaker 3: in America, boosting investment, and making it an even bigger
- 46:19Speaker 3: economic powerhouse. Now I have to ask you about the
- 46:22Speaker 3: oscars before you go. They were on overnight. What was
- 46:27Speaker 3: the highlight for you? There were so many highlights.
- 46:31Speaker 7: Oh my gosh, what a virtue signal fest. I do
- 46:33Speaker 7: have to say. I thought Conan O'Brien did a good job,
- 46:35Speaker 7: and I really liked Adam Sandler, you know, wearing his
- 46:38Speaker 7: basketball shorts. That was the highlight of the night for me.
- 46:41Speaker 7: But you know, just the virtue signaling and the Academy.
- 46:44Speaker 7: But you know what, Reta, Do you remember how cool
- 46:46Speaker 7: the Academy Awards used to be. Everybody was watching it.
- 46:48Speaker 7: I mean there was a Sunday night the whole world
- 46:50Speaker 7: watched it. Now nobody cares. So Hollywood has lost its luster.
- 46:55Speaker 7: And it's actually a sad sight to see because I
- 46:57Speaker 7: didn't see one of the movies nominated this year. You
- 47:00Speaker 7: need to make better stuff that you know people can relate.
- 47:02Speaker 3: To, and they need to actually remove all these diversity
- 47:09Speaker 3: requirements for nominees and also, yeah, make better movies, pick
- 47:15Speaker 3: better options.
- 47:16Speaker 4: But I don't think you're alone.
- 47:18Speaker 3: I think many people have not seen or even heard
- 47:21Speaker 3: of some of these nominations, and it's lost all relevance.
- 47:26Speaker 3: It's no longer a night where you tune in eagerly
- 47:31Speaker 3: to see who's going to be the best actor and
- 47:33Speaker 3: the best actress. And I was surprised. I've got to say, though,
- 47:37Speaker 3: that there wasn't more political activism. There's a teeny tiny bit,
- 47:41Speaker 3: but given that it's the first month of Trump's second term,
- 47:44Speaker 3: I was expecting to see speech after speech after speech
- 47:48Speaker 3: decrying the state of America and Maga and all things Trump.
- 47:53Speaker 4: But I don't know.
- 47:54Speaker 3: Even Hollywood appears to have read the room, Alex Stein,
- 47:58Speaker 3: It's always a pleasure. Thank you so much for your
- 48:00Speaker 3: time tonight.
- 48:02Speaker 7: Thank you for having me read. Always a pleasure.
- 48:04Speaker 4: And that's all the time we have tonight.
- 48:06Speaker 3: I'll see you tomorrow night at eleven, but don't go
- 48:09Speaker 3: anywhere near.
- 48:10Speaker 4: Tonight is up next
