- 0:08Speaker 2: Good evening and welcome to the Reader Panalty Show. Coming
- 0:10Speaker 2: up tonight. One Nation expands its popularity across all demographics,
- 0:15Speaker 2: particularly amongst women. The panel will join me to discuss
- 0:19Speaker 2: that and the day's other top headlines. Keir Starmer attacks
- 0:23Speaker 2: Nigel Farage over his response to the death of Henry Novak.
- 0:28Speaker 3: Andrew Eborn will join me to discuss that. Mi Horowitz
- 0:32Speaker 3: will have the latest from the.
- 0:33Speaker 2: US, including the Great Succession debate with the two men
- 0:37Speaker 2: most likely to be Donald Trump's successor. Megan Markle accused
- 0:42Speaker 2: of hipocrisy yet again after sharing images of her children online.
- 0:46Speaker 2: Kinsey Schofield will have all your royal and entertainment news
- 0:51Speaker 2: and left He's losing It features this confused lass with
- 0:54Speaker 2: contradictory pronouns.
- 0:56Speaker 4: You know what else is in my bio?
- 0:59Speaker 5: My pronouns? Yes?
- 1:00Speaker 2: They she here?
- 1:02Speaker 5: Why because I'm non binary?
- 1:07Speaker 2: But first, Pauline Hansen's One Nation now has more female
- 1:11Speaker 2: supporters than male as it expands its reach across all demographics, ages,
- 1:16Speaker 2: income and education levels. Support among men sits at twenty
- 1:20Speaker 2: two percent according to Reserve polling. Among women, it's on
- 1:24Speaker 2: twenty four percent. And what's really remarkable is the incredible
- 1:29Speaker 2: increase in support. In just twelve months after the last election,
- 1:33Speaker 2: only seven percent of men and six percent of women
- 1:36Speaker 2: said they would vote for One Nation. Analysis from Reserve
- 1:39Speaker 2: Polling also shows only four percent of eighteen to thirty
- 1:43Speaker 2: four year olds back the party at the last election.
- 1:46Speaker 2: That support level has almost quadrupled. Meanwhile, among people aged
- 1:51Speaker 2: over fifty five, support has grown from seven percent to
- 1:55Speaker 2: thirty one percent. Pauline Hansen told the Sydney Morning Herald
- 1:59Speaker 2: that women were flocking to One Nation because female voters
- 2:03Speaker 2: are seeing what I've warned about. She said, these woke
- 2:07Speaker 2: ideologies being taught in classrooms, boys in girls' toilets, men
- 2:12Speaker 2: in women's sport, the late term abortion changes. The UNI
- 2:16Speaker 2: parties have gone too far and are breaking the spirit.
- 2:21Speaker 3: Of Australian households.
- 2:23Speaker 2: Joining me now is former president of the Victorian Liberal
- 2:26Speaker 2: Party Michael Kroger and Sky News contributor Prue mcsweene. We
- 2:31Speaker 2: keep hearing the Liberals have a women's problem and the
- 2:35Speaker 2: solution is for the Liberals to lurch even further left. Well,
- 2:40Speaker 2: that didn't work out so well. Has one nation found
- 2:43Speaker 2: the formula.
- 2:45Speaker 6: Well, I think One Nation's found the formula that we've
- 2:49Speaker 6: been crying out for a long time. Women and men,
- 2:54Speaker 6: all demographics have been become fed up with this political
- 2:59Speaker 6: system that is just not working. It's a system that's
- 3:02Speaker 6: virtually a boys club, where even the women who are
- 3:05Speaker 6: part of the boys' club have sold out their gender.
- 3:10Speaker 6: They just stay quiet. We have women in particular who
- 3:14Speaker 6: are understanding. They're the ones who normally manage the family budget.
- 3:18Speaker 6: They see what's going on. They can see that their
- 3:21Speaker 6: children are being brainwashed in schools, that their older children
- 3:24Speaker 6: will never own a house, that they've been fed lies
- 3:28Speaker 6: and incompetence, and they've had enough, and Pauline offers them
- 3:33Speaker 6: an alternative, and until liberals understand really what's going on here,
- 3:39Speaker 6: that this is a movement of people who have just
- 3:42Speaker 6: had enough. They don't like the current system and they're
- 3:46Speaker 6: going for the alternative.
- 3:50Speaker 2: Michael, we saw Redbridge polling earlier in the week on
- 3:53Speaker 2: the Australian Financial Review and that showed One Nations support
- 3:57Speaker 2: at even higher levels than this resolved poll. They were
- 4:00Speaker 2: the most popular party head of labor. Clearly, the budget
- 4:04Speaker 2: backlash is benefiting One Nation and not the coalition.
- 4:10Speaker 4: At this stage.
- 4:10Speaker 7: It is and that's you know, largely because we're an
- 4:14Speaker 7: end of this environment at the minute rita where grievance
- 4:17Speaker 7: is the name of the game, the vibe. To use
- 4:19Speaker 7: that well weld worn term, he's grievance. So people who've
- 4:23Speaker 7: got it, who are upset about something supporting one nation,
- 4:26Speaker 7: but we're in this grievance environment and people are saying
- 4:29Speaker 7: the Liberals didn't do enough when they're in a government
- 4:31Speaker 7: between thirty and twenty two. Albanese's trashing the economy, crashing
- 4:35Speaker 7: the economy, and he's a terrible lie along with charmers,
- 4:37Speaker 7: and we don't have any confidence in him. So at
- 4:40Speaker 7: the minute they're going to Paul and Hanson. That's why
- 4:42Speaker 7: you see they're based on thirty one. That earlier poll
- 4:45Speaker 7: was interesting. Reason if there's twenty two percent of men
- 4:47Speaker 7: and twenty four percent of women, which gave the averages
- 4:50Speaker 7: twenty three between men and women, how to get thirty one?
- 4:53Speaker 4: There must be a lot of non binaries supporting one nation.
- 4:59Speaker 3: That is a good point, yes, well picked up.
- 5:01Speaker 2: Now Laborers failed to give a straight answer on two
- 5:06Speaker 2: occasions when asked about its savings in Defense. Let's hear
- 5:12Speaker 2: about Labour's alleged significant savings here.
- 5:15Speaker 8: How much will Australia save by acquiring three used Virginia
- 5:20Speaker 8: class submarines instead of two used submarines and one new submarine.
- 5:27Speaker 9: In terms of the exact savings quantification, that's not in
- 5:30Speaker 9: the public domain.
- 5:32Speaker 8: Why not? What's the current estimate of those savings?
- 5:36Speaker 9: So we don't have a number for you because you don't.
- 5:39Speaker 8: Know what there is no current estimates. Why don't you
- 5:41Speaker 8: have a number.
- 5:42Speaker 9: I'm happy to take it on notice if we've got
- 5:44Speaker 9: detailed analysis, but we don't have any numbers in the
- 5:47Speaker 9: public domain at the.
- 5:47Speaker 8: Moment, right, So you know that it'll be significant the savings, yes,
- 5:52Speaker 8: but you can't say how much those.
- 5:54Speaker 3: Not in terms of giving a specific number.
- 5:56Speaker 8: Note, how are we to evaluate that claim with no evidence?
- 6:00Speaker 1: Secretary?
- 6:00Speaker 8: Do you personally know the ballpark whether it is closer
- 6:03Speaker 8: to hundreds of millions or tens of millions or billions?
- 6:05Speaker 9: Do you know we have taken on notice the well
- 6:09Speaker 9: information the government has available to provide you this committee,
- 6:13Speaker 9: and that is my answer.
- 6:15Speaker 8: So you need to take it on notice. Whether you
- 6:17Speaker 8: know yourself the rough quantum of the savings.
- 6:21Speaker 9: So we're getting into semantics.
- 6:23Speaker 8: No, I think this is actually quite important for this
- 6:25Speaker 8: accountability forum and.
- 6:27Speaker 2: Shadow Defense Minister James Patterson didn't have any more like
- 6:31Speaker 2: getting answers from the bureaucrats about defense cuts or is
- 6:34Speaker 2: it savings?
- 6:35Speaker 8: How much are we saved by the spartans being in
- 6:39Speaker 8: your words, you know, phased out or replaced? How much
- 6:42Speaker 8: will we saved?
- 6:43Speaker 10: I don't have that figure with me.
- 6:44Speaker 8: Okay, does anyone in the room have that figure? If
- 6:48Speaker 8: there's anyone in the room, Chief Air Force maybe others
- 6:51Speaker 8: who know you obliged to come forward and provide the answer. Seriously,
- 6:58Speaker 8: no one in the room among all the assembled people
- 7:01Speaker 8: here are the CFO available? Do you know the answer?
- 7:07Speaker 2: The senator the officials that provide an answer? I answer
- 7:11Speaker 2: you either ask uther questions.
- 7:13Speaker 8: If no one the witness here that's providing that answer
- 7:15Speaker 8: to take it on notice, Well, I'll put it to
- 7:18Speaker 8: the secretary Secretary. Is it the case that no one
- 7:20Speaker 8: in this room has that answer?
- 7:23Speaker 2: It appears so, really, Michael, it's like a scene from
- 7:31Speaker 2: Yes Minister, It really is. It is comical, but it's
- 7:35Speaker 2: not comical because it's our money.
- 7:38Speaker 4: Well, reader, I think.
- 7:40Speaker 7: The answer to all James Patterson's questions is no one
- 7:43Speaker 7: has any idea. I don't know why Senator Jones, Patterson,
- 7:46Speaker 7: the little Senator of the Victoria, the Shadow Defense, why did
- 7:49Speaker 7: he bother going? I think you can presume no one
- 7:52Speaker 7: has a clue. We're relegating these plans to the retirement,
- 7:58Speaker 7: we're making savings on the new sub No one seems
- 8:00Speaker 7: to have any idea.
- 8:02Speaker 4: It is utterly bizarre.
- 8:03Speaker 7: We are talking about billions of dollars of the taxpayer's
- 8:06Speaker 7: money and no one seems to have a clue. But
- 8:09Speaker 7: this is typically under a labor government. Everything's rushed, it's
- 8:13Speaker 7: half baked. It's a budget full of unexplained expenditures, massive deficits,
- 8:19Speaker 7: huge debt.
- 8:21Speaker 4: It's just a flaming rollercoaster.
- 8:23Speaker 7: And you know, for poor old Jones person to have
- 8:25Speaker 7: to sit there and embarrass all these officials, boy, he
- 8:29Speaker 7: should probably spend.
- 8:30Speaker 4: His time going out for a good Chinese meal instead.
- 8:32Speaker 4: I think.
- 8:35Speaker 2: We hear a lot about the UNI party and the
- 8:38Speaker 2: problems with that, but is the permanent bureaucracy really the
- 8:43Speaker 2: bigger problem? Yeah, these very well paid, often unaccountable bureaucrats
- 8:48Speaker 2: who run the show.
- 8:50Speaker 6: Well, Mike, I don't necessarily agree with you. I think
- 8:53Speaker 6: they're part of a cover up. I think that these incompetent,
- 8:58Speaker 6: insolent publicans who are on these fat checks every week,
- 9:04Speaker 6: paid for or by us, who don't believe they are
- 9:07Speaker 6: answerable to us, but they're answerable to their political masters,
- 9:12Speaker 6: and their political masters have told them do not reveal anything.
- 9:17Speaker 6: I mean, Wilkinson, the Treasury secretary, got into hot water
- 9:21Speaker 6: because she's sort of semi told it a truth and
- 9:24Speaker 6: belled the cat to show that Charmers was lying. And
- 9:28Speaker 6: here we have this bunch on the payroll who are
- 9:32Speaker 6: so insolent and incompetence. As far as I'm concerned, let's
- 9:38Speaker 6: drain the swamp. I think the problem is that successive
- 9:42Speaker 6: political parties inherit these incompetent bureaucrats who are just in
- 9:49Speaker 6: it for themselves and just pay lip service to a
- 9:53Speaker 6: lot of the politicians who are incompetent and inexperienced. So
- 9:57Speaker 6: the quicker we can get rid of these fat cats
- 10:00Speaker 6: and show them whose boss, the better.
- 10:04Speaker 2: I don't know if Wilkinson was being all that brave
- 10:08Speaker 2: and honest.
- 10:09Speaker 3: I think she stuffed up as well.
- 10:10Speaker 2: I think the journalist picked up her stuff up and
- 10:14Speaker 2: revealed that Treasury were operating on figures that were entirely wrong,
- 10:19Speaker 2: one of the key figures that were using to justify
- 10:23Speaker 2: these tax hikes. Now, let's talk about the great State
- 10:28Speaker 2: of Victoria.
- 10:28Speaker 3: Another honor for us, Michael.
- 10:31Speaker 2: Melbourne has been named the car theft capital of Australia,
- 10:35Speaker 2: with more insurance claims for stolen cars lodged in Melbourne
- 10:40Speaker 2: than all other capital cities combined. Last year, data from
- 10:44Speaker 2: the Insurance Council of Australia found payouts for stolen cars
- 10:48Speaker 2: in Victoria total two hundred and forty three million across
- 10:52Speaker 2: twelve and a half thousand claims.
- 10:54Speaker 3: It also recorded a twenty.
- 10:56Speaker 2: Five percent increase in the number of motor theft in
- 11:00Speaker 2: durrance claims year on year. But Michael, here's the good news.
- 11:03Speaker 2: In other states.
- 11:04Speaker 3: Claims actually fell by double digits. So yeah, that's good,
- 11:08Speaker 3: isn't it.
- 11:09Speaker 4: What a surprise. Victoria is the crime capital of Victoria.
- 11:12Speaker 7: People know that if you get charged to get bail
- 11:15Speaker 7: and so many people on bail, then you go and
- 11:17Speaker 7: commit further crimes. Were there violent assaults, car theft, whatever.
- 11:23Speaker 7: This is the crime capital in Victoria. You've got a
- 11:26Speaker 7: labor government here terribly soft on crime. None of this
- 11:28Speaker 7: surprises anybody. I had my own car stolen from a
- 11:33Speaker 7: car park four or five years ago, so you know,
- 11:35Speaker 7: I feel the pain of every other. The ten thousand
- 11:38Speaker 7: Victorians have their car stolen every year.
- 11:41Speaker 4: In this state. But week on crime week laws.
- 11:45Speaker 7: And the government that has basically run out of money
- 11:49Speaker 7: as well reader to properly contest the law and order problem.
- 11:53Speaker 7: We've got a two hundred billion dollar get in Victoria,
- 11:56Speaker 7: which if you look at the gross number, which I
- 11:58Speaker 7: always do, is up to in a couple years time,
- 12:02Speaker 7: it's closer to three hundred billion dollars in debt, so
- 12:04Speaker 7: they're bankruptcy. They can't spend more money on law and
- 12:07Speaker 7: order and police. Hence the massive outbreaking crime in the state.
- 12:13Speaker 2: More insurance claims for stolen cars in Melbourne than all
- 12:18Speaker 2: other capitals that is combined. I mean, it's even hard
- 12:22Speaker 2: to fathom how that's possible.
- 12:24Speaker 6: You're right, and you know, Victoria sadly is rotting from
- 12:27Speaker 6: the top. We've seen the corruption that's going on in
- 12:32Speaker 6: terms of the union supported by the labor government, in
- 12:36Speaker 6: terms of you know, they take their money from them
- 12:39Speaker 6: and they try and pretend that they're investigating it right
- 12:43Speaker 6: through to a police form. It seems to be politically captured.
- 12:49Speaker 6: So we have a Gosoft on client crime. We have
- 12:52Speaker 6: the animals running the zoo and they know that they're
- 12:56Speaker 6: going to get bailed, then they're going to get a
- 12:58Speaker 6: slap on the wrist. I don't know how anybody could
- 13:02Speaker 6: even live in Melbourne anymore. I don't intend to ever
- 13:05Speaker 6: go there again. I used to love Melbourne, I used
- 13:07Speaker 6: to live there, but it is as you say, it's
- 13:10Speaker 6: the crime capital of Australia. It's rotting and until they
- 13:15Speaker 6: get a new government and a much tougher stance on crime,
- 13:20Speaker 6: it's going to continue.
- 13:23Speaker 3: Through McSween Michael Kroger, thank you so much for your time.
- 13:26Speaker 4: Thanks reader.
- 13:27Speaker 2: Joining me now is barrister and UK broadcaster Andrew Eburne. Andrew,
- 13:32Speaker 2: we're going to take a deep look into the horrific
- 13:35Speaker 2: treatment of Henry Novak. There has been developments overnight. Here
- 13:39Speaker 2: is Kirs Starmer attacking Nigel Frage for his response.
- 13:44Speaker 11: His response has been to appeal.
- 13:49Speaker 1: For rage. Rage.
- 13:52Speaker 11: That's his response to a father who's lost his son
- 13:56Speaker 11: and asked for that not to happen. Exploiting this tragedy
- 14:00Speaker 11: to create grievance and division will be wrong in any circumstances,
- 14:04Speaker 11: but to do it when the family are expressly saying
- 14:06Speaker 11: please don't is unforgivable. It shows exactly who he is.
- 14:16Speaker 2: Andrew, that's just unbelievable. The Prime Minister does not lack HUTSPA,
- 14:22Speaker 2: that's for sure. Using this to attack Nigel Farage suggesting
- 14:28Speaker 2: that talking about this case and talking about the ills
- 14:32Speaker 2: of British policing, the two tier policing, is somehow divisive
- 14:37Speaker 2: and politicizing this when this is a man who took
- 14:40Speaker 2: a knee for BLM.
- 14:43Speaker 1: It's absolutely horrent, abhorrent that anybody would seek to politicize
- 14:48Speaker 1: the murder of Henry Novaka. As Winston Churchill said in
- 14:52Speaker 1: that very House of Commons in September nineteen sixteen, truth
- 14:56Speaker 1: is incontrovertible. Panic may resent it, ignorance may deride it,
- 15:00Speaker 1: malice may has thought it, but there it is. And
- 15:03Speaker 1: if you look at the horrendous cam footage, the police
- 15:07Speaker 1: caam footage, the bodycam footage, it is harrowing. There he
- 15:11Speaker 1: is bleeding out from stab wounds. He repeatedly tells officers
- 15:15Speaker 1: I've been stabbed. I can't breathe, yet he is handcuffed.
- 15:19Speaker 1: Police guidance clearly states that in medical emergency, first aid
- 15:23Speaker 1: and preserving life must take priority over a restraint. And
- 15:27Speaker 1: as I say, it is abhorrent. But if you compare that,
- 15:30Speaker 1: the I can't breathe obviously is reminiscent of George Floyd
- 15:35Speaker 1: and the horrendous killing of him. And I've done a
- 15:37Speaker 1: lot of research on this, and I looked at Kirs
- 15:40Speaker 1: Starmer's comments at the time of the killing of George Floyd,
- 15:44Speaker 1: and this is what Keir Starmer's said. Like you, I
- 15:47Speaker 1: was shocked and angered by the killing of George Floyd
- 15:49Speaker 1: and the response of President Trump and the US authorities
- 15:52Speaker 1: to the peaceful protests to people rightly demanding justice has
- 15:56Speaker 1: been an affront to humanity. Those are the words that
- 15:59Speaker 1: he use, an affront to humanity. He also said this
- 16:03Speaker 1: in his letter to Boris Johnson and in Parliament. According
- 16:06Speaker 1: to Hansard, it's important that we check those facts, as
- 16:08Speaker 1: Winston Churchill says Handsard on the third of June twenty twenty,
- 16:12Speaker 1: so people can check it. He said he was shocked
- 16:14Speaker 1: and angered by George Floyd's killing. He highlighted the response
- 16:18Speaker 1: of the US authorities to the peaceful process and called
- 16:21Speaker 1: for the UK to convey its abhorrence at Trump's response.
- 16:24Speaker 1: He also urged pressure on the US to respect human
- 16:27Speaker 1: rights and the right to peaceful protests. So you have
- 16:29Speaker 1: a look at that sort of situation, and this is
- 16:31Speaker 1: why people are talking about the two tier side and
- 16:35Speaker 1: two Tierkier. The bottom line is this, we do need
- 16:38Speaker 1: to look at these situations. And I actually also just
- 16:41Speaker 1: going back to the facts with that, taking the hate
- 16:44Speaker 1: if you like, out of it, because people should be
- 16:47Speaker 1: angry about what's happening, but we need to look at
- 16:50Speaker 1: those facts, which is why I emphasized that, and I
- 16:52Speaker 1: checked out this is what the National Police Chiefs Counsel
- 16:55Speaker 1: the NPCC say in the Police Anti Racism Commitment, and
- 17:00Speaker 1: it's part of the Police Race Action Plan. So are
- 17:02Speaker 1: really to you because it is important reader producing equality
- 17:06Speaker 1: over policing outcomes to people from different ethnic groups by
- 17:09Speaker 1: responding to individuals and communities according to their specific needs,
- 17:14Speaker 1: circumstances and experiences with understanding that these will be racialized
- 17:19Speaker 1: and with the aim of reducing harm. It does not
- 17:23Speaker 1: mean this is their words, It does not mean treating
- 17:26Speaker 1: everyone the same or being color blind. In other words,
- 17:29Speaker 1: it's there in black and white, so to speak. It
- 17:32Speaker 1: is a two tier system. People have to be conscious
- 17:36Speaker 1: of color blindness. But the public are rightly asking whether
- 17:40Speaker 1: this approach contributed to the officer's hand handcuffing the dying
- 17:44Speaker 1: teenager instead of immediately helping him. And this is the
- 17:48Speaker 1: tragedy of the whole thing. We need to look at
- 17:50Speaker 1: that side. We need to get the whole picture. So
- 17:53Speaker 1: keen in the media, we are to sort of rush
- 17:55Speaker 1: to get to the story that we sometimes miss out
- 17:57Speaker 1: certain facts, certain evidence, and so on and so forth.
- 18:00Speaker 1: I would like to know exactly what was told to
- 18:02Speaker 1: the police before they arrived on the scene. We've heard
- 18:05Speaker 1: some of the recordings of the police report, which would
- 18:07Speaker 1: come on to in a moment, but also the circumstances
- 18:11Speaker 1: which they were told about it being a racial incident.
- 18:14Speaker 1: You've got that specific guidance from their governing body telling
- 18:18Speaker 1: them how to respond to it. We need to look
- 18:20Speaker 1: at all those facts. We need to take the stand
- 18:23Speaker 1: of it. We need to make sure it never happened again.
- 18:27Speaker 2: They were told in the phone call and once they
- 18:30Speaker 2: arrived at the scene that there had been a racial
- 18:33Speaker 2: slur uttered and hate speech, and it seems like those
- 18:38Speaker 2: words mesmerize them. That seems to be the priority. And
- 18:41Speaker 2: that's part of just the craziness of this when you
- 18:45Speaker 2: look at that footage, the warped priorities of those officers,
- 18:50Speaker 2: where you've got this young kid who has told them
- 18:52Speaker 2: nine times that he can't breathe four times, told them
- 18:56Speaker 2: he has been stabbed and they don't believe him, but
- 18:59Speaker 2: they have no trouble believing the claims that he had
- 19:03Speaker 2: racially abused his attacker, his murderer it turned out, and
- 19:07Speaker 2: he talked about that heightened mistrust in the UK police force.
- 19:13Speaker 2: I've played plenty of clips of that this week, of
- 19:17Speaker 2: young Brits protesting and being really quite angry. But I
- 19:21Speaker 2: want to show you this clip of an older woman
- 19:23Speaker 2: who shared that same sentiment. She spoke to gb News
- 19:27Speaker 2: outside Southampton police station.
- 19:30Speaker 12: In my opinion, I feel that the police are now
- 19:34Speaker 12: so racist towards anyone white or Engdish, or anyone who
- 19:38Speaker 12: even looks like me. I would never dare speak to
- 19:42Speaker 12: them to report crime. I would not email them or
- 19:45Speaker 12: phone them. I do not trust them not to be
- 19:49Speaker 12: racist towards me.
- 19:51Speaker 3: The rot in the police force.
- 19:53Speaker 2: And I know you're saying that there are policies in
- 19:55Speaker 2: place that encourage this sort of thinking and this sort
- 19:58Speaker 2: of conduct, but surely you would have thought that they
- 20:02Speaker 2: would do everything within their power to get rid of
- 20:05Speaker 2: these PC ideologies in their policing, particularly after the grooming
- 20:10Speaker 2: gang scandal that was such an enduring stain on British policing.
- 20:15Speaker 3: And they seem to have learnt nothing from it.
- 20:17Speaker 1: Andrew, You're absolutely right. It is, as they say, abhorrent.
- 20:22Speaker 1: I always say that trust comes in on foot and
- 20:25Speaker 1: leaves on horseback, and trust in the police is at
- 20:29Speaker 1: an all time low as a result of the various
- 20:31Speaker 1: incidents that we've spoken about. And absolutely the priority should
- 20:35Speaker 1: have been on the person lying on the ground dying,
- 20:38Speaker 1: bleeding to death when they said that what he said,
- 20:41Speaker 1: I can't breathe, I've been stabbed. They should have believed him.
- 20:45Speaker 1: And you saw and say the Harrying police cam footage
- 20:48Speaker 1: on that sort of basis, So you're right, we need
- 20:50Speaker 1: to restore trust in the police looking at some of
- 20:53Speaker 1: the policies, and that's why I emphasize what it says,
- 20:56Speaker 1: they've got to revisit those because people at the moment
- 20:59Speaker 1: don't have that trust. They talk about two tier policing,
- 21:02Speaker 1: it's there in black and white. We need to look
- 21:04Speaker 1: at that sort of side we can restore to us
- 21:06Speaker 1: by working on that sort of basis, being honest about it,
- 21:09Speaker 1: saying this is what we were told to do. We
- 21:11Speaker 1: got it wrong, and the sooner they put up their
- 21:13Speaker 1: hands to that the better.
- 21:16Speaker 2: Now the BBC has apologized or issued a correction after
- 21:21Speaker 2: misquoting Nigel Farage.
- 21:22Speaker 13: Let's have a look before we start tonight. We want
- 21:25Speaker 13: to apologize for an error we made on last night's program.
- 21:29Speaker 13: In an interview about the murder of eighteen year old
- 21:31Speaker 13: Henry Novak, we mistakenly quoted the Reform UK leader Nigel
- 21:35Speaker 13: Farash as saying people should respond to his death with
- 21:38Speaker 13: a white cold rage. To be clear, mister Faragh actually
- 21:42Speaker 13: said pure cold rage, as had been stated earlier in
- 21:46Speaker 13: the program. We apologize to him for this mistake. Last
- 21:49Speaker 13: night's Newsnight has been removed from Eyeplayer and BBC.
- 21:53Speaker 2: Sounds Andrew, what would think that a minor era like
- 21:56Speaker 2: that wouldn't really need such a fulsome correction, But there
- 22:00Speaker 2: were so many on the left focusing on the use
- 22:03Speaker 2: of the word why even though it was not referring
- 22:06Speaker 2: to skin color in that context.
- 22:09Speaker 1: And I would actually disagree respectfully with you on I
- 22:12Speaker 1: don't think it was a minor mistake. Using the word
- 22:14Speaker 1: writ in what is clearly a racially sensitive situation is very,
- 22:19Speaker 1: very tricky the actual phrase, and I looked this out
- 22:21Speaker 1: Nigel's original post. I went back to this what he
- 22:24Speaker 1: said on June the second, at eight fifty seven am
- 22:27Speaker 1: here in London. The biggest fear of police officer now
- 22:30Speaker 1: has going about his or her duty on the street
- 22:33Speaker 1: is the fear of being reported for having acted in
- 22:35Speaker 1: a way that was racially biased. That fear now greater
- 22:39Speaker 1: than dealing with a dying man lying on the ground.
- 22:42Speaker 1: The fear of being called racist was greater than dealing
- 22:45Speaker 1: with Henry Novak's murder. We should respond to this with
- 22:48Speaker 1: pure cold rage. Britain's historic way of life is being
- 22:52Speaker 1: thrown away. Those are the words he used. He didn't
- 22:55Speaker 1: use the word white in that context when it's such
- 22:58Speaker 1: racial sensitivity. It was wrong for the BBC to use that.
- 23:02Speaker 1: They came out and apologize, so credit where credit's due,
- 23:05Speaker 1: and I think that they shouldn't have done it in
- 23:07Speaker 1: the first place. They did apologize. Those are Nigel's actual words,
- 23:10Speaker 1: which people forget are actually and distort them. As I say,
- 23:13Speaker 1: going back to that Winston Churchill things.
- 23:16Speaker 2: Joy, We love you, Andrew. This is why we love
- 23:19Speaker 2: you. You always bring us the facts. You've got the receipts.
- 23:22Speaker 2: Andre Bond, Thank you so much for your time tonight.
- 23:25Speaker 1: It's good to see you.
- 23:27Speaker 3: Coming up.
- 23:28Speaker 2: Lefty's Losing It plus the Great Succession Debate with the
- 23:32Speaker 2: two men most likely to be Donald Trump's successor Mi
- 23:36Speaker 2: Horowitz is up next. Welcome back. It's time for Lefty's
- 23:50Speaker 2: Losing It. Let's start with this young last. It seems
- 23:54Speaker 2: rather confused, and it seems like she wants to confuse
- 23:57Speaker 2: others as well, with a variety of contradictory pronouns.
- 24:02Speaker 14: You know what else is in my bio?
- 24:04Speaker 5: My pronouns?
- 24:06Speaker 3: They she he why?
- 24:09Speaker 5: Because I'm non binary. Yes, there are more ways to
- 24:14Speaker 5: be queer than just being capital G gay. Also, I'm
- 24:18Speaker 5: literally pansexual and my partner doesn't change that. I feel
- 24:23Speaker 5: like in the Big Year of twenty twenty six, we
- 24:26Speaker 5: should know that. Highly recommend reading some books and touching
- 24:29Speaker 5: some grass.
- 24:31Speaker 3: Oh, honey, take your own advice.
- 24:33Speaker 2: People who touch grass and read books don't typically subscribe
- 24:37Speaker 2: to your crazy views and pronoun protocols or victim Wood narrative.
- 24:42Speaker 2: You know, if you're one of the people out there
- 24:44Speaker 2: who's watching this and Ha's put pronouns in your bio,
- 24:48Speaker 2: it's time.
- 24:49Speaker 3: To have a good heard look at yourself. Do better.
- 24:51Speaker 2: Now we have some delicious lefty losing and content, and
- 24:55Speaker 2: we have to thank Secretary of State Marcar Urubio for
- 24:58Speaker 2: his sterling contribution here.
- 25:00Speaker 3: But first you're going to hear from a Democrat.
- 25:03Speaker 2: I've never heard of her either, Sydney cam Laga Dove
- 25:07Speaker 2: carrying on like a fruitcake during a house hearing.
- 25:10Speaker 15: We're talking about a one point eight billion dollar slush fund,
- 25:14Speaker 15: and I think that's corruption. The American people think that's corruption.
- 25:19Speaker 15: They want to know if you think that's corruption.
- 25:22Speaker 16: Okay, Number two on this goes right to the point
- 25:25Speaker 16: of transparency. You're absolutely wrong about the way the money flows.
- 25:27Speaker 16: It's pretty so straightforward, and I'll share it.
- 25:29Speaker 15: I'm going to have to reclaim time again.
- 25:31Speaker 16: The process to answer ask questions you don't get to answer.
- 25:35Speaker 3: It's my time.
- 25:36Speaker 10: The question I.
- 25:37Speaker 16: Don't know you want, so why am I here about?
- 25:39Speaker 15: Don't you to answer your questions or your defamer reclaiming
- 25:43Speaker 15: my time?
- 25:43Speaker 10: Reclaim?
- 25:44Speaker 3: But I want to reclaim? Do I get time?
- 25:46Speaker 16: Because you make these defamatory spaniments and no one can
- 25:48Speaker 16: talk here.
- 25:49Speaker 3: If you can't call corruption, it is crazy. And that's
- 25:53Speaker 3: the entire process.
- 25:54Speaker 2: The Secretary of State, who is about a dozen rolls
- 25:58Speaker 2: at this point, is based his valuable time appearing at
- 26:02Speaker 2: a hearing not to answer questions, but to watch democrats
- 26:05Speaker 2: have little tantrums.
- 26:08Speaker 3: These guys determines the barrels of oil that gets.
- 26:13Speaker 10: Me answer your question. I have an answer for your question.
- 26:15Speaker 3: Where is it going.
- 26:17Speaker 5: For?
- 26:17Speaker 10: To answer?
- 26:18Speaker 15: Is on you to prove that there is no corruption
- 26:21Speaker 15: happening possibility as the secretary of State.
- 26:25Speaker 2: And when Marco Rubia was finally given a few seconds
- 26:29Speaker 2: to respond, the democrat asking the questions there to lead
- 26:34Speaker 2: the chamber.
- 26:35Speaker 4: Why is she leaving?
- 26:35Speaker 16: I'm gonna answer her questions. I will Oh, she's got okay,
- 26:40Speaker 16: I got it.
- 26:41Speaker 4: Well, thank you for coming.
- 26:44Speaker 2: And here is a Democrat, Madeline Dean, also misusing this
- 26:49Speaker 2: hearing to raven rant rather than seek answers.
- 26:52Speaker 16: And we saw an incredible amount of the aid.
- 26:55Speaker 10: Hands reclaiming my time.
- 26:57Speaker 6: The aid was he by Israel Goru.
- 27:01Speaker 10: You can't even answer a question. You're not following the rules.
- 27:03Speaker 6: You're very familiar with how this works.
- 27:07Speaker 16: A question and I can't answer.
- 27:09Speaker 3: Would you please add time to the clock. Nope, He's.
- 27:14Speaker 2: And to complete these terrible trifecta, here is Democrats Sarah
- 27:19Speaker 2: Jacobs ranting and writing about shoes.
- 27:22Speaker 17: Just like you couldn't admit that the shoes the president
- 27:24Speaker 17: bought you were too big. You clearly don't know what
- 27:27Speaker 17: winning means, and not because the facts are unclear to you.
- 27:30Speaker 17: It's because telling your truth the truth would cost you
- 27:32Speaker 17: your job. And the American people are entitled to a
- 27:35Speaker 17: Secretary of State who tells them the truth even when
- 27:38Speaker 17: the president doesn't want to hear it. And my constituents,
- 27:40Speaker 17: our service members deserve better. Mister Chairman, I ailed back,
- 27:45Speaker 17: I don't.
- 27:45Speaker 10: Know what shoes she's talking about.
- 27:46Speaker 16: What is she talking about?
- 27:47Speaker 18: No, Representative Burchett, you're.
- 27:50Speaker 16: Recognized, thanks, miss chairman, if you'd like to answer any
- 27:53Speaker 16: of that. I don't know about the shoes. I mean,
- 27:54Speaker 16: he gave me some floor shim shoes. They're actually pretty good.
- 27:56Speaker 16: They fit fine, I don't know. I don't know what
- 27:58Speaker 16: she's talking about it and maybe that's what she's referring to.
- 28:01Speaker 17: Your shoes look very nice today, mister secretary.
- 28:03Speaker 16: How can you see him? Their way down here? We're
- 28:07Speaker 16: talking about shoes? Are you guys kidding me? I mean,
- 28:09Speaker 16: is this the Foreign Affairs Committee? Or is this like
- 28:11Speaker 16: a circus?
- 28:11Speaker 4: What is this?
- 28:12Speaker 2: It's a circus to California now, where voters, fed up
- 28:16Speaker 2: by the many many failures of Democrat leaders look set
- 28:21Speaker 2: to send Spencer Pratt and Steve Hilton to run off
- 28:23Speaker 2: elections for Marin governor. But we won't know the final
- 28:27Speaker 2: results for some time because it's California, and you can
- 28:30Speaker 2: expect some interesting mail in votes to skew the results syndications.
- 28:36Speaker 19: And there's certainly a ton of precedent here that that
- 28:38Speaker 19: late arriving vote by mail is going to be significantly
- 28:43Speaker 19: more Democratic friendly than all of the other vote, meaning
- 28:47Speaker 19: that would be good news for Bass, that would be
- 28:49Speaker 19: good news for Rahman. If she's going to come out
- 28:52Speaker 19: of tonight behind Pratt, it's a huge iff. But if
- 28:54Speaker 19: she's going to come out of tonight behind Bratt, well
- 28:56Speaker 19: it's not a huge iff. At this point, she would
- 28:59Speaker 19: then have the opportunity if she's close enough to catch
- 29:01Speaker 19: him with that. But that is a twenty five thousand
- 29:03Speaker 19: vote pad. There eight percentage points that Pratt has managed
- 29:06Speaker 19: to build.
- 29:07Speaker 2: Yes, eight percentage points Pratt has managed to build. But
- 29:11Speaker 2: how quickly will he lose them? No voter or ID
- 29:14Speaker 2: laws in LA. And if you want an example of
- 29:17Speaker 2: how crazy California Democrats are, look at this Spencer Pratt
- 29:21Speaker 2: at highlighting LA meyt Karen Bass wanting to fix the
- 29:25Speaker 2: teeth off methaddicts.
- 29:27Speaker 3: She doesn't want to fix their meth addictions.
- 29:29Speaker 20: No, just the teeth, taxpayer funded teeth for meth heads,
- 29:32Speaker 20: while Nythia Rahman wants to ban grills outright. My other
- 29:35Speaker 20: opponent was to get shiny new grills for drug addicts.
- 29:38Speaker 20: It's the most quintessential Karen Bass policy, another cosmetic cover
- 29:42Speaker 20: up that fails to address the rap beneath in a way.
- 29:44Speaker 20: This reveals the most perfect allegory for the city of
- 29:47Speaker 20: Los Angeles.
- 29:48Speaker 3: How many people are on housed that you meet have
- 29:51Speaker 3: no teeth at all. They don't have teeth y because
- 29:54Speaker 3: meth broots.
- 29:54Speaker 4: Your teeth on the surface.
- 29:56Speaker 20: Karen's pitch seems lifted straight out of one of my
- 29:58Speaker 20: father's office grochures. She asserts, you can't succeed without teeth.
- 30:02Speaker 3: You can't succeed with out teeth.
- 30:05Speaker 10: Well, that's objectively true.
- 30:06Speaker 20: Everyone with an IQ hovering slightly above room temperature had
- 30:10Speaker 20: the same reaction. It's not the teeth that's holding them back.
- 30:13Speaker 3: It's the myth.
- 30:14Speaker 2: It's the meth, Karen, it's the myth. And Spencer Pratt
- 30:18Speaker 2: is not afraid to take.
- 30:19Speaker 3: On the media.
- 30:20Speaker 2: Even old school lefties like Bill Maho've given him a
- 30:24Speaker 2: fair run. Here is with Bill telling him he would
- 30:27Speaker 2: be arrested if he smoked pot in front of kids.
- 30:30Speaker 21: I care about safety, for safety, the lights being on
- 30:35Speaker 21: pot what a manor should care about if it's legal,
- 30:39Speaker 21: you know, I'm gonna be a I mean, can I
- 30:43Speaker 21: only swim in front of kids at the park? You
- 30:45Speaker 21: know I'll be forced If you're smoking out in front
- 30:47Speaker 21: of a kid in the swing, I'll be getting you
- 30:49Speaker 21: as mayor.
- 30:50Speaker 22: You know.
- 30:50Speaker 10: And no more drugs around kids.
- 30:52Speaker 21: At parks and schools, in front of daycares, even if
- 30:55Speaker 21: it's a legal. Part We need to have a society
- 30:58Speaker 21: of consequences.
- 30:59Speaker 2: Let's bring in Californian born documentary filmmaker and commentator Army Horowitz.
- 31:05Speaker 3: Army, what's going on in these elections?
- 31:08Speaker 2: And why does California take so long to count votes?
- 31:13Speaker 14: Look, I will not sit here and have you disparage
- 31:17Speaker 14: my old state. Okay, we will know exactly who won
- 31:21Speaker 14: the election for mayor when the mayor, the next mayor.
- 31:25Speaker 10: Is elected in twenty thirty.
- 31:26Speaker 14: Okay, it will be done by then, for sure.
- 31:30Speaker 5: No.
- 31:30Speaker 14: Look, the democratic mantra is all votes must.
- 31:34Speaker 10: Be counted, even the illegal ones.
- 31:37Speaker 14: So yes, of course they take their sweet old time
- 31:40Speaker 14: and make sure that not election day, but election year
- 31:44Speaker 14: is encompassing everyone who finally sends them in, whether or
- 31:48Speaker 14: not you're an illegal or illegal person in California, of course. Now,
- 31:52Speaker 14: look it's all crazy, obviously. Look, I only want a
- 31:56Speaker 14: little personal information here, Rita. I really watch two reality shows, Okay.
- 32:01Speaker 14: I watch the NFL's Hard Knocks and the Grand Great
- 32:06Speaker 14: Import from Australia, Love on the Spectrum, the best thing
- 32:09Speaker 14: out of Australia since Nicole Kindeman. Okay, and I admit
- 32:14Speaker 14: I never watched a single episode of the Hills.
- 32:18Speaker 10: But it will take a.
- 32:20Speaker 14: Reality show star to face up to the reality of
- 32:24Speaker 14: what is going on in LA right now. And I
- 32:27Speaker 14: am all for First Lady Heidi Montage. I think it's great. Okay,
- 32:34Speaker 14: look the problems in LA are legion. We've talked about
- 32:37Speaker 14: so many of them, right, the homeless encambments that stretch neighborhoods.
- 32:41Speaker 14: I don't know people know this, but ten percent of
- 32:44Speaker 14: the entire homeless population of our country is located in
- 32:49Speaker 14: Los Angeles. But a problem that, by the way, people
- 32:52Speaker 14: don't really know about is the RV problem. We've never
- 32:55Speaker 14: talked about it, but there are RV's lining up entire
- 33:01Speaker 14: blocks of neighborhoods of people just living, not getting tickets,
- 33:05Speaker 14: not being towed away, because hey man, that's the one
- 33:08Speaker 14: to live, including if you're living in a Malibu where
- 33:11Speaker 14: it's six thousand dollars for a one bedroom apartment, you
- 33:13Speaker 14: can live for free looking at the view of the
- 33:17Speaker 14: ocean in LA. And now, look, the election obviously is coming.
- 33:23Speaker 14: I love you know, we've talked about Spencer Pratt.
- 33:27Speaker 10: I love him. I think it'd be a great mayor.
- 33:28Speaker 14: I think he's now running up against the reality, you know,
- 33:31Speaker 14: once he's in that final general election race of what
- 33:35Speaker 14: the limit is of a Republic can get at this point. Look,
- 33:37Speaker 14: he's got a shot, but the polls are showing forty
- 33:40Speaker 14: seven twenty nine for Karen Bass. And by the way, ironically,
- 33:45Speaker 14: the best thing that ever happened at Karen Bass is
- 33:47Speaker 14: Spencer Pratt because he knocked out Ramen and if Ramu
- 33:52Speaker 14: is running the pole shows he may have beaten the
- 33:54Speaker 14: Socialist Democrats. Last communists would have probably beaten Karen Bass.
- 33:57Speaker 14: So Karen Bass is counter a lucky start. Spencer Pratt jumped.
- 34:01Speaker 2: Out and that is astonishing. I mean, how dumb can
- 34:07Speaker 2: LA get. They've seen what's happened in New York City
- 34:10Speaker 2: and they've said, oh, yes, we'd like a little bit
- 34:11Speaker 2: of that, bring us some of that communism, some of
- 34:14Speaker 2: that dysfunction and even higher taxes.
- 34:17Speaker 3: Yeah, let's just let's just completely destroy the joint.
- 34:21Speaker 2: A lot of the focus has been on Spencer Pratt,
- 34:24Speaker 2: but of course the race for governor is even more significant,
- 34:27Speaker 2: and President Donald Trump has congratulated California's GOP given national
- 34:32Speaker 2: candidate Steve Hilton, who is likely to advance to the
- 34:36Speaker 2: state's general election. The President wrote congratulations to Steve Hilton
- 34:40Speaker 2: on coming in first last night in the California vote
- 34:43Speaker 2: for governor. If Californians are smart, which and I know
- 34:46Speaker 2: they are, they will put Steve into the governor's mansion
- 34:49Speaker 2: and watch their state get better at a rate that
- 34:52Speaker 2: has probably never been seen before.
- 34:55Speaker 3: Army.
- 34:55Speaker 2: That's very much a bit of wish for thinking there.
- 34:57Speaker 2: I think from the president, Hilton is a good candidate.
- 35:02Speaker 2: But this is a state where the Democrats enjoy a
- 35:05Speaker 2: super majority.
- 35:07Speaker 14: Yeah, they have a two to one majority. Well, we
- 35:09Speaker 14: don't know who's going to be governor. We know one
- 35:11Speaker 14: thing for sure. Barack Obama will not be the governor
- 35:14Speaker 14: of California. Yes, no, not Barack Obama, the president. But
- 35:19Speaker 14: the member in Crazy California had over sixty canaid t
- 35:23Speaker 14: running and one of them was a university professor who
- 35:26Speaker 14: legally changed his name to Barack Obama, the forty fourth
- 35:29Speaker 14: president or to have a shot at When he didn't,
- 35:31Speaker 14: he pulled out. Sorry, Barack Obama will not be governor. Yeah,
- 35:36Speaker 14: it's really it's fascinating. Look, Steve Hill is doing something incredible.
- 35:39Speaker 14: He is right now leading the race and will wait.
- 35:42Speaker 14: One of the two coming out of the jungle primaries
- 35:45Speaker 14: is ridiculously stupid process. The California has to let governor
- 35:49Speaker 14: and mayors. But look, you know I've said it before
- 35:52Speaker 14: in the show. Okay that I you know, you've laughed
- 35:54Speaker 14: at me when I've said it, But I said there's
- 35:56Speaker 14: opportunity in California. I don't not now, not necessarily right,
- 35:59Speaker 14: but I think there is something going on there. And
- 36:02Speaker 14: the last two governor's race, you saw the Republican tick
- 36:05Speaker 14: up each time, and I think you're going to see
- 36:08Speaker 14: I think ultimately Javier Basera will probably win. Only you
- 36:12Speaker 14: don't know, but I think Steve Hilton will, I think,
- 36:15Speaker 14: outperform the other two Republicans who ran against them. People
- 36:18Speaker 14: are really sick of what's going on, particularly by the
- 36:21Speaker 14: way the high tech class, the guys who haven't left
- 36:24Speaker 14: already many of them have, the ones who are staying
- 36:27Speaker 14: who were solid blue, have been moving to purple, to
- 36:31Speaker 14: even Reddit. So a lot of the money now which
- 36:34Speaker 14: had been flowing for all these years to Democrats, have
- 36:37Speaker 14: been flowing a little bit more to Republicans. What's fascinating
- 36:40Speaker 14: about California is that Javier Passera, who is going to
- 36:43Speaker 14: come out against Steve Hilton, is looked upon by most
- 36:47Speaker 14: Democrats as a right winger, which is. He's being attacked
- 36:52Speaker 14: attacked constantly by the hard left, saying he is too
- 36:57Speaker 14: center center, right right. Hivier Basera, a man who is
- 37:00Speaker 14: a g was pushing the California as a sanctuary state,
- 37:06Speaker 14: who was trying to give more benefits to illegals, and
- 37:09Speaker 14: then as and of course as HHA secretary under Biden
- 37:13Speaker 14: was pushing trans in the kids. That guy is too
- 37:16Speaker 14: right for many Democrats. So I think this entire thing
- 37:19Speaker 14: is crazy. It's all fascinating.
- 37:21Speaker 10: I love it. I'm here for it.
- 37:24Speaker 2: Now, let's talk about the ultimate succession plan. Who will
- 37:28Speaker 2: become the most powerful leader in the world after Donald
- 37:32Speaker 2: Trump finishes his second term. The president is remaining on
- 37:36Speaker 2: the fence. He wants the two leading candidates to run together.
- 37:40Speaker 2: He said that would make an unbeatable team. He said,
- 37:44Speaker 2: I watched them together. They get along great, they have
- 37:47Speaker 2: a good relationship.
- 37:48Speaker 3: I like them together.
- 37:49Speaker 2: But ARMI if they run together, if that's what the
- 37:53Speaker 2: president wants. Is he's sort of hinting that he wants
- 37:56Speaker 2: JD to be running for president and Rubio as his
- 37:59Speaker 2: v JD's already made vape. Surely he wouldn't be running
- 38:04Speaker 2: to be somebody else's vice president as well.
- 38:07Speaker 14: Now, this is insane. It's not going to happen. They're
- 38:09Speaker 14: not going to run together. Look, in fact we're talking
- 38:12Speaker 14: about and I think is why do you ruin everything?
- 38:14Speaker 3: Amy? Why do you ruin everything? Amy?
- 38:17Speaker 13: I know.
- 38:19Speaker 3: Republicans want Okay, they want this.
- 38:23Speaker 14: Look we we are looking just like the Democrats have
- 38:26Speaker 14: had this existential battle for the soul of their party.
- 38:29Speaker 14: The Republicans faced this now as well. And I think
- 38:32Speaker 14: you see this split between the two sides. And they
- 38:38Speaker 14: represent each of the two sides the way too. Early
- 38:41Speaker 14: polls show that they are neck and neck. Look, Vance
- 38:45Speaker 14: has been if you ask people, not publican, but I
- 38:47Speaker 14: ask people behind behind the scenes about Vance. He is
- 38:51Speaker 14: very unsupportive of the President and his foreign policy in particular.
- 38:56Speaker 10: It's it's he's been an issue in the White House.
- 38:58Speaker 14: And yeah, I think this is going to be a
- 39:00Speaker 14: battle the soul of the Republican party.
- 39:02Speaker 10: We'll see what happens.
- 39:02Speaker 2: Fascinating now before you go, this surprise me at CBS
- 39:08Speaker 2: of all networks reporting on mass fraud via the medicaid scheme.
- 39:13Speaker 22: I wish I could show you what's behind here, but
- 39:15Speaker 22: I can describe. I've seen over a dozen Ferraris, Lamborghinis,
- 39:20Speaker 22: a Bugatti Lotus, and of course you obrigatory gua in.
- 39:25Speaker 22: These are just some of the assets the government has
- 39:27Speaker 22: seized from fraudsters who have taken your taxpair dollars and
- 39:33Speaker 22: buy some of these ill gotten gains.
- 39:35Speaker 2: Army, give my audience an idea of the size of
- 39:38Speaker 2: this fraud, because we're talking about not just tens of millions,
- 39:43Speaker 2: hundreds of millions, perhaps even billions.
- 39:47Speaker 14: Oh my dear, you have the numbers way off. You're
- 39:52Speaker 14: talking upwards of a hundred billion dollars out okay, oh yeah,
- 39:59Speaker 14: and fun. My favorite time of the show is fun
- 40:02Speaker 14: with AI. So when I looked up the numbers, how
- 40:05Speaker 14: much fraud is there? AI, of course, unprompted, said well,
- 40:10Speaker 14: the numbers are upwards of one hundred billion, but a
- 40:14Speaker 14: trillion dollars is spent every year on medicare, So what's
- 40:19Speaker 14: one hundred billion dollars between friends?
- 40:21Speaker 10: Right, Yeah, it's.
- 40:22Speaker 14: Only ten percent of a trillion dollars, that's what one
- 40:25Speaker 14: hundred billion dollars is.
- 40:27Speaker 10: No, it's absolutely out of control.
- 40:29Speaker 14: And by the way, if we recently saw the news
- 40:31Speaker 14: in Minnesota on the Medicare fraud, that they recently charged.
- 40:37Speaker 10: Fifteen people, just fifteen.
- 40:38Speaker 14: People, for a hundred million dollars alone in just Minnesota. Okay,
- 40:45Speaker 14: and by the way, you think that's a lot of money,
- 40:48Speaker 14: but the Age is saying that is the tip.
- 40:50Speaker 10: Of the iceberg.
- 40:51Speaker 14: He thinks that the numbers are close to nine billion
- 40:55Speaker 14: dollars in Minnesota alone. Yeah, and look to give you again,
- 41:00Speaker 14: how this helps you know the problems it has for
- 41:03Speaker 14: regular people. The autism fund they had six years ago
- 41:08Speaker 14: in Minnesota was six.
- 41:10Speaker 10: Hundred thousand dollars.
- 41:12Speaker 14: Now it's upwards of four hundred million dollars. And all
- 41:17Speaker 14: of that is scamming people for the autism fund now
- 41:21Speaker 14: having said that, it is in Minnesota with a large
- 41:24Speaker 14: Somali population, so it is possible while the cousin marriage,
- 41:27Speaker 14: that autism has in fact skyrocket.
- 41:30Speaker 10: I don't know. I'm just saying I don't know what
- 41:31Speaker 10: I'm talking about.
- 41:34Speaker 2: We are not giving medical advice right here, Horowitz are incredible.
- 41:40Speaker 2: I mean, the figures there are just astronomical, out of
- 41:44Speaker 2: this world, Amy Horowitz, thank you so much for your time.
- 41:47Speaker 10: Tonight is a pleasure.
- 41:49Speaker 2: Coming up next, Megan Mikael accused of hypocrisy again.
- 41:53Speaker 3: What has she done this time.
- 41:55Speaker 2: Kisisco Field has the details.
- 42:08Speaker 3: Welcome back.
- 42:09Speaker 2: Joining me now is host of the Kinsey Schofield Unfiltered
- 42:13Speaker 2: podcast Kinsey Schofield. Let's start with our favorite Meghan Markel.
- 42:18Speaker 2: Her spokesperson has defended the Duchess of Sussex decision to
- 42:23Speaker 2: share photos of her children on Instagram. Critics have accused
- 42:27Speaker 2: her of hypocrisy after she previously raised concerns about the
- 42:31Speaker 2: damage done to children by social media. The spokesperson told
- 42:35Speaker 2: Newsweek there is a distinction between sharing moments from her
- 42:40Speaker 2: life and exposing her children to public scrutiny. Kinsey, at
- 42:44Speaker 2: this point, we're shocked if Megan doesn't do something that
- 42:48Speaker 2: is wildly hypocritical.
- 42:51Speaker 18: Very true.
- 42:52Speaker 23: I mean, we're constantly told privacy as paramount right up
- 42:55Speaker 23: until there's a birthday, a product line to Netflix, project
- 42:58Speaker 23: or on Instagram and get an opportunity. The rules seemed
- 43:01Speaker 23: to change depending on what serves her brand. You know,
- 43:05Speaker 23: it's not the sharing itself that's raising eyebrows, it's the inconsistency.
- 43:10Speaker 23: But I've also spoken to law enforcement that insists the
- 43:13Speaker 23: teasing she engages in with her children's photos could attract
- 43:17Speaker 23: security threats. So It's about so much more than sharing
- 43:21Speaker 23: moments and vibes.
- 43:23Speaker 18: Do you know what I mean?
- 43:25Speaker 3: I do?
- 43:26Speaker 2: Indeed, now and never before seen letter from the late
- 43:30Speaker 2: Princess Diana to a fan has been revealed. Penned in
- 43:34Speaker 2: November nineteen ninety five, Diana wrote about looking forward to
- 43:38Speaker 2: the future and teaching William and Harry the importance of
- 43:42Speaker 2: communication on a deeper level Kinsey. She also wrote that
- 43:47Speaker 2: she hopes her explosive BBC Panorama interview would help other
- 43:52Speaker 2: women in similar difficulties.
- 43:56Speaker 20: You know.
- 43:56Speaker 23: Fun fact reader Martin Basher claimed he was too ill
- 43:59Speaker 23: to topeat in the BBC's investigation regarding that nineteen ninety
- 44:03Speaker 23: five interview. The investigation happened in twenty twenty, where he
- 44:07Speaker 23: was found guilty of severe journalistic deceit. But guess who's
- 44:11Speaker 23: all over the brand new Michael Jackson Netflix documentary RITA
- 44:15Speaker 23: looking fit as a fiddle.
- 44:17Speaker 18: It's Martin Basher, highly suspect.
- 44:19Speaker 3: Oh hello, I know, I think we're.
- 44:22Speaker 23: Breaking that here. I haven't seen anybody else make a
- 44:24Speaker 23: stink about that. But yes, Diana wanted William and Harry
- 44:27Speaker 23: to communicate on a deeper level. Instead, we've watched years
- 44:31Speaker 23: of public grievances from the Sussexes.
- 44:33Speaker 18: I think that outcome would have broken her heart.
- 44:37Speaker 2: She would be absolutely devastated by what's happened, wouldn't she.
- 44:42Speaker 2: I mean, is her two boys, her world and their
- 44:45Speaker 2: own speak, Kinsey, and Harry's entire relationship with everyone in
- 44:51Speaker 2: that family.
- 44:52Speaker 3: His own father is broken.
- 44:56Speaker 18: Not invited to Peter Phillips's wedding, that's a coming up.
- 44:59Speaker 23: I mean that had to really crush his spirit, that
- 45:01Speaker 23: he's not going to be included in such a special occasion.
- 45:05Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 45:05Speaker 23: I feel like he's completely isolated and likely feels very
- 45:08Speaker 23: much alone.
- 45:11Speaker 2: Now A few eyebrows have been raised by Prince Harry
- 45:14Speaker 2: attending a polo.
- 45:15Speaker 3: Match without Meghan. Again. This is the second time we've
- 45:19Speaker 3: sayen Harry without Meghan, just this week.
- 45:22Speaker 23: Kinsey, that's right, So in downtown La Prince Harry was
- 45:26Speaker 23: one of the VIP guests at jose Andre's Spain My
- 45:29Speaker 23: Way book release party. Not seeing Megan at a polo
- 45:32Speaker 23: event doesn't surprise me. My sources tell me she hates polo,
- 45:35Speaker 23: which is ironic since she's already produced one show and
- 45:38Speaker 23: she's producing a new scripted show. I've heard she hates Polo,
- 45:42Speaker 23: but not seeing her elbowing her way into the FOODI
- 45:45Speaker 23: elite does surprise me. She used to have her own
- 45:48Speaker 23: cooking show, you know. So this has got tongues wagging
- 45:51Speaker 23: that Harry's being seen alone so often.
- 45:55Speaker 2: Now I want to show you a video posted by
- 45:58Speaker 2: Britney Spears onto her social media yesterday. She's already taken
- 46:03Speaker 2: a down. Let us have a look at a few
- 46:05Speaker 2: seconds of it.
- 46:06Speaker 24: Real thanks, Kinsey fans are again concerned for her.
- 46:21Speaker 2: Do we know what sort of support system Britney has
- 46:23Speaker 2: around her these days?
- 46:25Speaker 23: Well, she has been spending more time with her sons,
- 46:28Speaker 23: but they shouldn't be raising their mother a longtime Britney
- 46:31Speaker 23: fans do want to know who's looking out for her
- 46:33Speaker 23: behind the scenes. There was a recent incident where she
- 46:36Speaker 23: was at a restaurant and she had a knife in
- 46:38Speaker 23: her hand, and apparently she was there with an assistant
- 46:40Speaker 23: and a bodyguard. The conservatorship is over, but concerned for
- 46:43Speaker 23: her well being has not disappeared. Last month, we discussed
- 46:48Speaker 23: her pleading guilty to a lesser charge after she was
- 46:51Speaker 23: arrested under dui to avoid jail time.
- 46:54Speaker 18: In exchange for probation.
- 46:56Speaker 23: She also had to pay some fines and she has
- 46:58Speaker 23: to do three months out alcohol education programs. So maybe
- 47:03Speaker 23: she'll meet some mentors in that program, but we have
- 47:06Speaker 23: to sit back and hope that somebody's more aggressive and
- 47:09Speaker 23: more involved.
- 47:12Speaker 3: Now a spoiler warning for this next story.
- 47:15Speaker 2: For fans of Euphoria, we're going to talk about the
- 47:18Speaker 2: series finale, So step away for a couple of minutes
- 47:22Speaker 2: if you're invested in that program. The finale came out
- 47:27Speaker 2: and one main character has suffered a dramatic death from
- 47:33Speaker 2: a fentanyl overdose.
- 47:36Speaker 3: Kinsey, it's not our favorite girl, is it?
- 47:40Speaker 23: Well, Zindia is one of my favorite girls. She's so
- 47:44Speaker 23: unproblematic and wholesome aside from this send spiral of a
- 47:48Speaker 23: TV show. But I suspect you're asking about the fate
- 47:51Speaker 23: of Sydney Sweeney.
- 47:53Speaker 18: And to that I ask good news and bad news.
- 47:55Speaker 23: Her character lives, her dignity a little questionable after this
- 47:59Speaker 23: final and I hope they paid her handsomely.
- 48:02Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, I've played a couple of the clips of
- 48:08Speaker 2: her dressed in her well, not much at all on
- 48:11Speaker 2: all fours, pretending to be a dog, amongst other things.
- 48:15Speaker 3: So yes, I hope she's been paid very well.
- 48:17Speaker 2: Indeed, now Madonna has dropped some hot tea. As the
- 48:23Speaker 2: kids say, She's revealed that John F. Kennedy Junior was
- 48:27Speaker 2: her best lover. The lack of virgin singer has been
- 48:30Speaker 2: linked to plenty of celebrities over the years. Kinsey, but
- 48:34Speaker 2: jfk Jr. Was the best one.
- 48:37Speaker 23: Color me nosy, but I need to know the official ranking.
- 48:40Speaker 23: Where's Vanilla Ice compared to Tupac? And did Dennis Rahn
- 48:43Speaker 23: make the official cut? Normally I don't like to hear
- 48:46Speaker 23: about a seventy year old sex life, but Madonna has
- 48:48Speaker 23: seen something. Sean Penn, Warren, Beatty, Guy Ritchie and that
- 48:51Speaker 23: guy she met at the gym.
- 48:53Speaker 18: What a thrill.
- 48:55Speaker 3: I was just going to name a couple of those,
- 48:57Speaker 3: but you beat me to it.
- 48:58Speaker 2: It is asive list, and a diverse list.
- 49:02Speaker 3: You've got to say.
- 49:03Speaker 2: You can't say this girl's got to type all sorts
- 49:06Speaker 2: of all backgrounds, all ages, all ethnicities.
- 49:11Speaker 3: Interesting it is.
- 49:13Speaker 18: I mean, I was curious to know more.
- 49:16Speaker 23: And normally I'm scolding Madonna because she's, you know, exposing herself.
- 49:21Speaker 18: All over the internet. But here I'm like, no, wait,
- 49:23Speaker 18: I'll take another sentence or two.
- 49:27Speaker 3: Kids, This go Field. It's been a pleasure.
- 49:30Speaker 2: Thank you so much for your time, and that's all
- 49:32Speaker 2: the time we have tonight.
- 49:34Speaker 3: Don't go anywhere. Newsnight is up next
