Speaker 1: On scyls Ostrodia. This is the Winner Panalkey Show.
0:10
Speaker 2: Good evening, and welcome to the Rita Panekey Show.
0:12
Speaker 3: Coming up tonight, Cory Bernardi slammed for defecting to One
0:16
Speaker 3: Nation amid speculation Pauline Hansen may form her own coalition
0:20
Speaker 3: with the Liberals and the Nationals. Dan While will cover
0:24
Speaker 3: that and the day's other top headlines. Chris Bowen provides
0:27
Speaker 3: a new update on snowy two point oh well, look
0:31
Speaker 3: at that with Professor Ian Plimer. The Great John Heindereker
0:34
Speaker 3: will have the latest from the US, including the fraud
0:37
Speaker 3: scandal in Minnesota which is even worse than first recorded,
0:42
Speaker 3: and more information about Andrew Mountin Batten Windsor's relationship with
0:46
Speaker 3: Jeffrey Epstein Kinsey's Schofield.
0:49
Speaker 2: We'll have more on that later in the hour.
0:52
Speaker 3: And Lefty's Losing It features kids being brainwashed to hate
0:56
Speaker 3: law enforcement and to hate the president. But First, former
1:11
Speaker 3: Prime Minister John Howard has unleashed on former Liberal MP
1:14
Speaker 3: Cory Bernardi for defecting to One Nation. Speaking to the Advertiser,
1:18
Speaker 3: mister Howard said Bernardi was desperate for recognition and is
1:22
Speaker 3: not somebody who wants to seriously contribute to policy. Speaking
1:26
Speaker 3: about One Nation's recent success in the polls, mister Howard said,
1:30
Speaker 3: I don't think One Nation is a serious political party.
1:33
Speaker 3: It's a grievance vehicle. People are talking about going to
1:37
Speaker 3: One Nation not because they're excited by the policy offerings,
1:40
Speaker 3: but because they are disgruntled with the Liberal and National parties. Meanwhile,
1:46
Speaker 3: Pauline Hanson clashed with Sky News host Chris Kenny last
1:49
Speaker 3: night as she tore into the Coalition for its own
1:53
Speaker 3: lack of policies.
1:54
Speaker 2: Have a listen.
1:55
Speaker 4: Where are their policies? Where's Fay's policy on the immigration?
1:58
Speaker 4: Where's the policy about zero you know, to get rid
2:01
Speaker 4: of it, escalating cost of living, all these issues that
2:05
Speaker 4: are concerning the Australian people. It goes on policies or.
2:10
Speaker 1: Where are your politicism?
2:12
Speaker 4: I can't be They're all up on the website, Chris,
2:14
Speaker 4: what all up on the website?
2:16
Speaker 5: Don't have policies?
2:19
Speaker 3: Joining me now is Deputy Executive director at the Institute
2:22
Speaker 3: of Public Affairs Daniel Wild. Dan, what do you make
2:25
Speaker 3: of John Howard's criticism of Cory Bernardi. I think it's
2:30
Speaker 3: rather ill informed and harsh to say Bernardi is not
2:32
Speaker 3: somebody who wants to seriously contribute to policy. After all,
2:37
Speaker 3: Bernardi recognized early on that the Liberals were drifting away
2:41
Speaker 3: from their base. He tried to start the Conservative Party,
2:45
Speaker 3: didn't work out, but he recognized this trend before many others.
2:50
Speaker 6: That's right a guy like both John Howard and Corey Bernardi,
2:53
Speaker 6: so let them duke it out themselves. But certainly I
2:55
Speaker 6: think it's a bit harsh to say that he doesn't
2:57
Speaker 6: want to make a contribution. He has made a contribution
2:59
Speaker 6: in the past, and he has been willing to engage
3:01
Speaker 6: in debates where a lot of people weren't willing to
3:03
Speaker 6: do that, so I think he needs to be respected
3:05
Speaker 6: for that. I think John Howard's point about the policies
3:08
Speaker 6: is half right and half wrong, and I think he's
3:11
Speaker 6: a bit off the mark to say that one nation
3:14
Speaker 6: is just a grievance party. What Australians looking for? You know,
3:17
Speaker 6: one Nation's gone from ten to twenty five percent in
3:21
Speaker 6: the poll, so that extra fifteen percent that have come
3:23
Speaker 6: are different to the original ten percent. I agree the
3:25
Speaker 6: original ten percent maybe were mostly there for grievance reasons,
3:28
Speaker 6: which is totally fair enough, by the way, but you've
3:30
Speaker 6: got a different kind of people now that are getting
3:32
Speaker 6: behind one nation and they want to see change in
3:34
Speaker 6: the system. They don't want to see one nation become
3:37
Speaker 6: joined to the hip with Liberal and National parties, so
3:40
Speaker 6: that one nation needs to be careful when they start
3:41
Speaker 6: talking about coalition for me, because a lot of people say, no,
3:44
Speaker 6: hang on a minute, the problem is the political establishment.
3:47
Speaker 6: We want you to shake it up.
3:48
Speaker 3: So but if there isn't a coalition, you're just fracturing
3:52
Speaker 3: that center right vote and having labor remain in power
3:56
Speaker 3: indefinitely because you need to organize those force somehow.
4:00
Speaker 2: But we do have a preferential.
4:02
Speaker 3: System and it kind of lends itself to forming coalitions
4:07
Speaker 3: if you want to be elected, that is.
4:09
Speaker 6: True, but a premature forming of a coalition will undermine
4:12
Speaker 6: the change we need in this country, and we saw
4:15
Speaker 6: that when the Liberal and National Party's got to back
4:17
Speaker 6: together the first time. I warned against it, and I
4:19
Speaker 6: understand people who said, you can't get into government unless
4:22
Speaker 6: you're in coalition. That's true, but you're not going to
4:24
Speaker 6: get into government unless you know what you stand for,
4:27
Speaker 6: and you've got to figure that out first. So they
4:29
Speaker 6: have to get the fundamentals right. I also think one
4:31
Speaker 6: nation has an opportunity to make a bigger play for
4:33
Speaker 6: lower house seats, not just the Senate. I think a
4:36
Speaker 6: lot of Australians are ambitious for one nation to be
4:38
Speaker 6: able to They're not going to get into government themselves
4:41
Speaker 6: anytime soon, but if you look at what Reform has
4:43
Speaker 6: done building that up you know when it was UKIP
4:46
Speaker 6: and it takes time, right, So I think these things
4:48
Speaker 6: need to be figured out first before any discussion of
4:51
Speaker 6: coalition forming takes place.
4:53
Speaker 3: And on mister Howard, and I think he's not alone here.
4:57
Speaker 3: There's other former Liberal leaders who are otherwise pretty sound,
5:00
Speaker 3: but they've got this anti populist sentiment which is really
5:06
Speaker 3: quite worrying because populace is just another word for democracy
5:11
Speaker 3: and it's what people want to see from their elected officials.
5:15
Speaker 2: And it should not be railed against. It should actually
5:18
Speaker 2: be listened to.
5:19
Speaker 5: Yeah, and it only reinforces it.
5:20
Speaker 6: You know, when you have former politicians that are railing
5:24
Speaker 6: against populos, well, that reinforces the popularist vote because it
5:28
Speaker 6: proves the reason why people are voting that way.
5:30
Speaker 5: Now. I think that it's.
5:33
Speaker 6: The thing about how it was he was masterful and
5:35
Speaker 6: actually dealing with this himself. He had these same challenges
5:37
Speaker 6: when the Liberal Party was drifting to the left, and
5:39
Speaker 6: he was able to bring it back to a more
5:41
Speaker 6: sensible position. The reason why One Nation is doing so
5:44
Speaker 6: well is precisely because the Liberal Party is failing. If
5:46
Speaker 6: the Liberal Party was dealing with mass migration, if it
5:49
Speaker 6: was dealing with policies like net ZERI, if it was
5:51
Speaker 6: standing up for Australian values, even with the Voice to Parliament,
5:54
Speaker 6: it took them forever to get to a no position.
5:57
Speaker 6: So this you can't sort of just say I don't
6:01
Speaker 6: like One Nation, I don't like populus. You've got to
6:02
Speaker 6: look at the Liberal Party has caused this fracturing to happen.
6:06
Speaker 3: They can't even bring themselves a Liberal Party to say
6:09
Speaker 3: the words mass migration. You've got people within the party
6:12
Speaker 3: who think it's an offensive term to.
6:15
Speaker 5: Be including the immigration shadow.
6:18
Speaker 2: That's a bit of a.
6:18
Speaker 5: Problem, isn't it. Dan Yes.
6:20
Speaker 2: Now.
6:21
Speaker 3: Housing Minister Clara O'Neil was on Sky News earlier today
6:24
Speaker 3: and listen to her dismiss the idea that immigration mass
6:28
Speaker 3: immigration is the biggest factor in house prices going through
6:32
Speaker 3: the roof One Nation.
6:34
Speaker 7: According to recent polls leads when it comes to that
6:37
Speaker 7: issue of immigration, and part of it is the housing question,
6:42
Speaker 7: because people are saying, why are we bringing more people
6:44
Speaker 7: in when we can't even house and young people can't
6:48
Speaker 7: get into the market. Now, you know they're inextricably linked
6:51
Speaker 7: those two issues, aren't they.
6:52
Speaker 8: Well, migration is a piece of the puzzle. It's certainly
6:54
Speaker 8: not the whole story.
6:55
Speaker 7: Politically, it's a potent.
6:56
Speaker 8: Well, we know it's not the whole story because in
6:59
Speaker 8: COVID we actually saw our population decline for the first
7:02
Speaker 8: time in seventy years, and house prices absolutely went through
7:05
Speaker 8: the roofs.
7:05
Speaker 9: So these things are not linear.
7:09
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, it's the housing minist it's just such simplistic,
7:13
Speaker 3: economically illiterate thinking. We were in a pandemic where businesses
7:18
Speaker 3: were forcibly shut down, and naturally in a crisis like that,
7:23
Speaker 3: people turned to bricks and water investments, So people went
7:27
Speaker 3: to what they consider to be safe as houses literally houses.
7:31
Speaker 2: That is not a.
7:35
Speaker 3: That is not some sort of proof that migration doesn't
7:38
Speaker 3: have the impact on housing prices and demand that it
7:42
Speaker 3: obviously does because people have to live somewhere.
7:44
Speaker 5: Yeah, how hard is it just to say it's a problem.
7:46
Speaker 6: I don't get it. It's just supply and demand. The
7:48
Speaker 6: other thing in COVID was supply chain disruption. It's hard
7:51
Speaker 6: to get raw materials. Plus you know labour governments are
7:53
Speaker 6: banning logging and actually getting timber.
7:55
Speaker 5: That doesn't help either.
7:56
Speaker 6: So look, mass migration is the number one cause of
7:59
Speaker 6: house is going up. It is just obvious that if
8:03
Speaker 6: you don't have the houses in place before people get here,
8:06
Speaker 6: prices will go up. The quickest and easiest way to
8:09
Speaker 6: improve affordability is to cut immigration, and to cut it immediately. Yes,
8:13
Speaker 6: we need to fix the supply side. And you know
8:15
Speaker 6: they have the National Housing Agreement with the National Housing Accord.
8:18
Speaker 6: It's been in place for a number since mid last year,
8:21
Speaker 6: mid the year before.
8:22
Speaker 5: Actually it hasn't hit.
8:23
Speaker 6: One single target, not one single target has been hit
8:26
Speaker 6: on that accord. So it's just a disaster. And this
8:29
Speaker 6: is why no one trusts the government to get the
8:30
Speaker 6: job done.
8:31
Speaker 3: No and Clara O'Neil also had plenty to say about
8:35
Speaker 3: One Nation and Pauline Hanson.
8:38
Speaker 8: Absolutely turned my stomach to see that One Nation, which
8:42
Speaker 8: was quite rightly a prior of you know politics. Pauline
8:46
Speaker 8: Hansson's made a career out of sewing division and distrust
8:49
Speaker 8: and hatred between Australians, openly mocking people's most important spiritual beliefs,
8:54
Speaker 8: and yet here she is being regarded as a mainstream
8:57
Speaker 8: political force. And my view is the Liberals and then Schwans,
9:00
Speaker 8: I've got a lot to answer for here.
9:04
Speaker 2: How out of touch is Clara O'Neill.
9:06
Speaker 3: The polling shows, and we're talking about a number of
9:09
Speaker 3: polls by different polling companies. Pauline Hanson is the most
9:12
Speaker 3: popular political leader right now, ahead of Susan Lee, and
9:16
Speaker 3: ahead of the Prime Minister.
9:17
Speaker 5: And ahead of Clara O'Neil, no doubt.
9:19
Speaker 2: No doubt if anyone knew who.
9:20
Speaker 6: I didn't, I assume she was referring to Islam when
9:23
Speaker 6: she said that, I didn't know.
9:24
Speaker 5: It was a spiritual belief. I think that would be
9:26
Speaker 5: news to most people.
9:29
Speaker 3: That would have been used to pretty much ninety nine
9:32
Speaker 3: percent of the Muslim population to suggest that if you're
9:36
Speaker 3: not in favor of the Burka, then you are mocking the.
9:41
Speaker 2: Spiritual beliefs of or Muslims.
9:43
Speaker 3: I mean, really it's absurd, But what about that characterization,
9:48
Speaker 3: This continued effort to paint one nation of Pauline Hanson
9:53
Speaker 3: as this extreme right, dangerous group that anyone's aligned with
9:59
Speaker 3: them or has a pre and still with them than
10:01
Speaker 3: they're guilty of something.
10:02
Speaker 6: This is again, this is what it's striving people to
10:04
Speaker 6: one nation. I mean, people like Clara Neil don't get it.
10:07
Speaker 6: The people from the inner cities in Melbourne don't get it.
10:09
Speaker 6: If you think that being concerned about mass migration is racist,
10:13
Speaker 6: you're going to drive people to one nation. She talked
10:16
Speaker 6: about division, well, clar O'Neil supported the Voice to Parliament
10:19
Speaker 6: to divide it literally, to entrench racial division in our constitution.
10:24
Speaker 6: One nation opposed the Voice to Parliament because on the
10:27
Speaker 6: basis that we're all equal. Yet somehow Paul Enhans and
10:30
Speaker 6: sewing division and Clara O'Neil is trying to be in
10:32
Speaker 6: favor of unity.
10:33
Speaker 5: How does that work? Clarinel supports a treaty now the
10:36
Speaker 5: Labour Party supports all.
10:37
Speaker 6: Kinds of divisive measures. And it's what I would say
10:40
Speaker 6: is this is just projection. You know, she's projecting her
10:44
Speaker 6: own disposition on to Paul Enhanson and criticizing it.
10:47
Speaker 3: Now, let's hear from Finance grew Mark Morris. He's joined
10:51
Speaker 3: the chorus of economists in calling out the government's high spending,
10:54
Speaker 3: saying it is contributing to the rise in inflation and
10:58
Speaker 3: naturally interest rates.
11:01
Speaker 10: Every economists and Australia just about every bank and Australia
11:03
Speaker 10: just about.
11:04
Speaker 1: Unfortunately the Reserve.
11:04
Speaker 10: Bank's not going to be political, but they're all been telling.
11:06
Speaker 1: The government stop spending.
11:08
Speaker 10: I mean Milton Friedman, one of the greatest economists on
11:11
Speaker 10: this globe forever. And basic economics you know one oh one,
11:14
Speaker 10: which you learned at university in an economics degree. You
11:17
Speaker 10: do not spend more than you earn. So the government
11:20
Speaker 10: is spending more learned and that is what causes inflation.
11:22
Speaker 10: Consumers never cause inflationment governments do.
11:28
Speaker 3: Is one hundred percent right there. Consumers aren't causing inflation.
11:31
Speaker 3: It is the mad government over spending.
11:35
Speaker 5: Well, that's right. It is the government spending.
11:37
Speaker 6: And that is combined with the fact that you've got
11:39
Speaker 6: massive spending which could be absorbed in an economy that's growing.
11:43
Speaker 6: If an economy is growing faster than the rate of spending,
11:46
Speaker 6: then it's not going to cause inflation. But they're spending
11:50
Speaker 6: faster than the economy is growing, so you're pumping more
11:53
Speaker 6: money into circulation, which is pushing up prices. The other
11:56
Speaker 6: problem that you've got is productivity is going down. Redcativity
12:00
Speaker 6: is basically our capacity of our economy to generate supplying wealth.
12:03
Speaker 6: So you've got government pumping in money, pumping in more
12:06
Speaker 6: people into the economy, which is increasing demand at a
12:08
Speaker 6: time when our ability to generate wealth as a country
12:11
Speaker 6: is going backwards. So if the government gets the economy growing,
12:14
Speaker 6: they can spend more, But I don't think that's on
12:16
Speaker 6: the horizon now.
12:17
Speaker 2: We're in a bit of a vicious circle right now.
12:19
Speaker 3: And Mark Borrows also weighed in on the real cost
12:22
Speaker 3: of living crisis and it's a lot worse than reported
12:25
Speaker 3: for those paying off a mortgage.
12:27
Speaker 10: Cost of living for a mortgage holder has gone out
12:31
Speaker 10: of control relatives to someone who doesn't have a mortgage mortgage.
12:35
Speaker 10: So mortgage holders in this country are getting punished for
12:40
Speaker 10: taking risks to buy a house and borrow money at
12:42
Speaker 10: the and only to help out those people who are
12:45
Speaker 10: spending money like drunken salors, and they're the people getting
12:48
Speaker 10: money from the government.
12:51
Speaker 3: Dan this is true to form labor is again targeting,
12:55
Speaker 3: punishing those who work hard, who invest. Then there's now
12:59
Speaker 3: talk of reform of property taxes to further punish investors.
13:05
Speaker 6: Well, that's right, and that hasn't worked well here in Victoria,
13:07
Speaker 6: which is pioneered this approach of taxing people and taxing
13:10
Speaker 6: land and taxing investors. And look, the problem here is
13:14
Speaker 6: that it's not going to do anything about housing affordability fundamentally,
13:19
Speaker 6: it's not a key contributing factor to that. And it's
13:22
Speaker 6: just an example of how labor is late. It's just
13:24
Speaker 6: another lazy tax grab. They've got no answers to how
13:27
Speaker 6: to fix the budget. And look, the issue here is
13:29
Speaker 6: I think you can have a conversation about investors who
13:31
Speaker 6: have three, four five homes plus, but they want to
13:34
Speaker 6: go after everyone. Most people who invest in property have
13:37
Speaker 6: one or two at most. And these are aspirational Australians
13:40
Speaker 6: that are investing in something so they have a bit
13:41
Speaker 6: of money left over for when they retire, alongside their
13:44
Speaker 6: super And it's just another example of it. I think
13:46
Speaker 6: that Labor is just going to have this one size
13:48
Speaker 6: fits all approach.
13:49
Speaker 5: Slip punish people.
13:50
Speaker 2: It's a slippery slope.
13:51
Speaker 3: They're talking about winding back the capital gains tax discount
13:54
Speaker 3: just for property, not for other asset classes, and I
14:00
Speaker 3: think it's such a regressive way to look at it because,
14:04
Speaker 3: like you said, so many ordinary people invest in property
14:07
Speaker 3: to become financially secure. It's a real mum and dad
14:11
Speaker 3: investment vehicle, and that's the one that's being targeted, not
14:16
Speaker 3: people with share portfolios worth millions of dollars and sort
14:19
Speaker 3: of more sophisticated investment.
14:21
Speaker 5: That's a good point, actually, That is the issue.
14:23
Speaker 6: Is it's going to be like the nurses and the
14:25
Speaker 6: policemen and so forth that have got some money together,
14:28
Speaker 6: probably brought a modest unit somewhere in the outer suburbs
14:31
Speaker 6: that they rent out, and you're right, they're the ones
14:33
Speaker 6: that they're going to go after.
14:34
Speaker 3: And they're already having land tax against attacks that you
14:37
Speaker 3: don't have if you've got millions in a share portfolio. Now,
14:42
Speaker 3: before you go, we've got some data about office vacancy
14:46
Speaker 3: rates that search to a near thirty year high in Melbourne,
14:50
Speaker 3: with almost one in five Cevity officers sitting empty. That
14:53
Speaker 3: is just a terrible state. The national average is fifteen
14:57
Speaker 3: point nine percent and Sydney even lower than that.
15:01
Speaker 2: The amount of.
15:02
Speaker 3: Empty sipity office space has more than doubled in Melbourne
15:06
Speaker 3: since Labour came to power in twenty fourteen.
15:08
Speaker 1: Down.
15:09
Speaker 11: Yeah.
15:09
Speaker 6: Well, I think this is another example in my mind
15:11
Speaker 6: of I mean, firstly, the economy going backwards. People don't
15:14
Speaker 6: want to invest, businesses aren't expanding their staff in the city.
15:17
Speaker 5: And it's also a hangover from COVID.
15:19
Speaker 6: You know, we had the longest lockdowns in the world
15:20
Speaker 6: in Melbourne, and I mean I live in Adelaide now,
15:23
Speaker 6: which had a much different experience with the COVID lockdowns,
15:26
Speaker 6: and you do realize that Melbourne is quite different to
15:28
Speaker 6: the rest of Australia because of how long the lockdowns were,
15:31
Speaker 6: and the work from home concept became deeply entrenched because
15:34
Speaker 6: it had to because you weren't allowed to come into
15:36
Speaker 6: the office. And now they're going to legislate three days
15:39
Speaker 6: at home. So I think Melbourne is now an outlet.
15:42
Speaker 6: Used to be a city that would attract investment, but
15:46
Speaker 6: because of lockdowns and the mentality that's developed following lockdowns,
15:49
Speaker 6: it's becoming a negative place to invest and that's revealed
15:52
Speaker 6: in these vacancy.
15:53
Speaker 3: Rates and it's revealed in the mood of the CBD.
15:56
Speaker 3: It really is quite a depressing place compared to Sydney, ceas,
16:00
Speaker 3: particularly if there are no major events during weekends, it
16:04
Speaker 3: can be fairly dark and depressing.
16:07
Speaker 2: Dan will thank you so much for your time tonight.
16:09
Speaker 5: Thank you.
16:10
Speaker 2: Let's bring in esteem.

16:17
Speaker 3: Vans has used his speech at the State Department's Critical
16:20
Speaker 3: Minerals Ministerial Meeting, attended by the EU and fifty four
16:24
Speaker 3: nations including Australia, to announce plans for a new critical
16:29
Speaker 3: minerals trading block between the US and its allies, alongside
16:33
Speaker 3: coordinated minimum legal prices for the goods.
16:37
Speaker 2: Ian.
16:37
Speaker 3: The Vice President has said the plan was necessary to
16:41
Speaker 3: address the failing critical minerals market and counter China's dominance
16:46
Speaker 3: in the sector.
16:48
Speaker 12: Well, China dominates minerals that we use, and they're absolutely
16:53
Speaker 12: necessary for everyday life. Minerals like tin, minerals like tungsten,
16:58
Speaker 12: minerals like us we use that, a little of electronics
17:03
Speaker 12: and of course the rare earth elements. So although most
17:07
Speaker 12: countries have some mineral deposits, not all countries are blessed
17:10
Speaker 12: with mineral deposits of every type that we need to
17:14
Speaker 12: live our modern life. So the US is making a
17:17
Speaker 12: very sensible decision. They once had a situation where Uncle
17:21
Speaker 12: Sam used to buy a lot of minerals and stop
17:23
Speaker 12: Parlem because they didn't produce them. This is a similar
17:26
Speaker 12: sort of system. However, there is one great weakness to it.
17:30
Speaker 12: If we are say mining tungsten, which we can mine
17:33
Speaker 12: in various parts of Austria and currently coming up in Devon,
17:37
Speaker 12: in England, and in Australia and a few other parts
17:40
Speaker 12: of the world, we need to convert that to a
17:42
Speaker 12: saleable product called ammonium power tungstate. Now the Chinese do that.
17:47
Speaker 12: We don't have one of those factories in Australia. There
17:50
Speaker 12: is a small one in Austria, and that's it. We
17:53
Speaker 12: also have a situation with rail earth elements, where the
17:57
Speaker 12: rare earth elements are chemically similar to each other that
18:01
Speaker 12: you need very very specific processes.
18:04
Speaker 1: For extracting one element from the next.
18:06
Speaker 12: This takes time, This takes a huge amount of capital,
18:09
Speaker 12: and it takes a lot of skill.
18:11
Speaker 1: Now the US doesn't have that, China does.
18:14
Speaker 12: It was stolen from the French the rule and per
18:17
Speaker 12: link process, and so the US, although it might have
18:22
Speaker 12: some of the minerals in the.
18:23
Speaker 1: Ground, it doesn't have the processing facilities. So to have
18:26
Speaker 1: a marketing arm is the way around this.
18:28
Speaker 12: Now it'll take some time because China will have an
18:32
Speaker 12: easy fit, but ultimately there will be stable marketing of
18:35
Speaker 12: minerals which we need for Western civilization.
18:40
Speaker 3: And we have to get China out of that supply chain.
18:43
Speaker 3: It cannot be reliant on China for part of that process.
18:46
Speaker 2: It defeats the.
18:46
Speaker 3: Whole purpose of being energy independent. Now let's talk about
18:52
Speaker 3: Chris Bowen. I know he is your favorite and minister
18:55
Speaker 3: in the alb and Easy government. The climate change and
18:57
Speaker 3: Energy minister has declared that Snowy Hydro two point zero
19:01
Speaker 3: is apparently back on track. That's only after numerous budget blowouts,
19:06
Speaker 3: fresh cash injections and even a new tunnel boring machine
19:10
Speaker 3: which they've named Monica.
19:13
Speaker 2: Really they have.
19:15
Speaker 3: This was delivered to the side earlier in the week
19:17
Speaker 3: in what's going on with this project?
19:21
Speaker 1: Well, it's a giant stuff up.
19:22
Speaker 12: It's an ideological program driven by people who have no
19:26
Speaker 12: idea of making tunnels. For example, in any normal underground mind,
19:31
Speaker 12: you will make a decline which is five and a
19:33
Speaker 12: half meters by five and a half meters, and you
19:37
Speaker 12: can advance at a couple of meters a day. Most
19:40
Speaker 12: mines would have at least fifty maybe one hundred kilometers
19:43
Speaker 12: of underground tunnels they're put in over a decade or so,
19:46
Speaker 12: So what's wrong with snowy hydra When they're putting in
19:50
Speaker 12: a system using a tunnel borer, which is much quicker,
19:54
Speaker 12: what's wrong with them? They're actually boring a much much
19:58
Speaker 12: shorter distance than you do in a normal hard rock
20:01
Speaker 12: underground time. So there's something seriously wrong with those people
20:05
Speaker 12: who are driving this process. And these are the ide
20:08
Speaker 12: logues in Canberra who've never tied up a shoelace let
20:11
Speaker 12: learn put.
20:11
Speaker 1: In the tunnel.
20:15
Speaker 3: No, and I would love to see once this whole
20:18
Speaker 3: project is completed what the cost has been compared to
20:21
Speaker 3: what we were told when Malcolm Turnbull dreamed up this
20:25
Speaker 3: idea some years ago. Professorin Plyma, thank you so much
20:28
Speaker 3: for your time tonight, Thank you stilty karma left he
20:32
Speaker 3: is losing it, plass the latest from the US, including
20:35
Speaker 3: the fraud scandal in Minnesota, which is even worse than
20:39
Speaker 3: first reported. John Heindereika joins me. Next, you're watching the
20:54
Speaker 3: Reader Panehy show, and it's time for lefties losing it
20:58
Speaker 3: and sad news for the left, just activist masquading as
21:01
Speaker 3: journalists at the Washington Post with hundreds of jobs slashed
21:04
Speaker 3: across its newsroom after the paper loss seventy seven million
21:09
Speaker 3: US in twenty twenty three and one hundred million in
21:11
Speaker 3: twenty twenty four.
21:13
Speaker 1: I'd have a.
21:13
Speaker 3: Little more sympathy for those job losses if it weren't
21:17
Speaker 3: for the fact that the Washington Post is nothing but
21:19
Speaker 3: a propaganda outlet for the Democrats, pumping out endless misinformation,
21:24
Speaker 3: always in the same direction, and they were guilty of
21:28
Speaker 3: pushing the Russian collusion hoax. Here's just thirty seconds of
21:33
Speaker 3: the fake news that the Washington Post pumped out and
21:36
Speaker 3: the rest of the media eight up.
21:38
Speaker 13: Russian President Vladimir Putin gave direct instructions to help elect
21:41
Speaker 13: Donald Trump president. According to a Washington Post investigation, Former
21:45
Speaker 13: President Obama received a secret CIA report in August. That
21:49
Speaker 13: report quote captured Putin's specific instructions on the operations audacious
21:54
Speaker 13: objectives defeat or at least damage the Democratic now Maine
21:57
Speaker 13: Hillary Clinton.
21:58
Speaker 14: This morning, the Washington Host is reporting that US intelligence
22:01
Speaker 14: agencies had sourcing deep inside the Russian government, capturing Putin's
22:06
Speaker 14: direct instructions in the operation.
22:09
Speaker 3: Maybe a good idea to learn how to code. Now,
22:12
Speaker 3: let's look at some of the indoctrination happening in American schools.
22:15
Speaker 3: Look at how these young children are being taught to
22:18
Speaker 3: hate and protest against the president. You know, that reminds
22:33
Speaker 3: me of going to school in Iran, in Tehran and
22:36
Speaker 3: being forced to chance death to America at school assembly.
22:40
Speaker 3: That's what blue cities are turning into. And it doesn't
22:43
Speaker 3: get much better when the kids are in high school.
22:46
Speaker 3: Here are more brainwashed kids protesting Ice and Trump.
22:51
Speaker 2: Donald Trump involved but his peak.
22:54
Speaker 3: But this has to be my favorite anti ice protest.
23:00
Speaker 3: This is just so stunning and brave. The sacrifice these
23:04
Speaker 3: lefties are making is profound.
23:08
Speaker 14: Dreams with our eyes.
23:10
Speaker 3: Because the time to check in now on the Vice
23:21
Speaker 3: president JD Van schooling yet another TV anchor.
23:26
Speaker 2: This just gets tiresome after a while.
23:28
Speaker 15: Should you plan to apologize to the family of Alex
23:30
Speaker 15: Pretty for what for you know, labeling him an assassion
23:34
Speaker 15: with ill intent?
23:35
Speaker 11: Well, again, I just described to you what I said
23:38
Speaker 11: about Alex Pretty, which is that he's a guy who
23:40
Speaker 11: should have ill intent to an ice protest.
23:42
Speaker 15: But it's determined that his civil rights were violated by
23:46
Speaker 15: this FBI investigation, will you apologize?
23:48
Speaker 11: So if this hypothetical leads to that hypothetical leads to
23:53
Speaker 11: do a thing.
23:54
Speaker 3: Now, it seems the Vice president has grown weary of
23:57
Speaker 3: doing interviews with dim witted anchor on CNN, NBC, CBS,
24:02
Speaker 3: et cetera, et cetera, interviews that are watched by dwindling audience.
24:07
Speaker 3: So he went where the eyeballs are. In twenty twenty six,
24:10
Speaker 3: he sat down with Megan Kelly. Here he talks about
24:13
Speaker 3: the media and their refusal to cover what has been
24:16
Speaker 3: an astonishing story, the dramatic drop in violent crime in
24:21
Speaker 3: the past twelve months, including an almost twenty percent drop.
24:25
Speaker 2: In the murder rate. Assaults are down, fifties down, but.
24:28
Speaker 3: The media has all but buried the story.
24:32
Speaker 11: Just about the crime. Okay, why is the crime rate
24:34
Speaker 11: so low? There are a lot of reasons. One is
24:36
Speaker 11: that we've empowered local law enforcement. Another reason is because
24:39
Speaker 11: we've deported a lot of criminals in the United States
24:42
Speaker 11: that should have never been here in the first place
24:44
Speaker 11: because they were legal aliens. So the media cannot even
24:49
Speaker 11: express an ounce of nuance. It's never oh, well, maybe
24:52
Speaker 11: this we disagree with this. Let's have a conversation about that.
24:55
Speaker 11: And but like, let's tell the truth about the fact
24:58
Speaker 11: that there are America who are alive today because of
25:01
Speaker 11: Donald Trump's crime and immigration policies.
25:03
Speaker 5: They can't do that.
25:04
Speaker 11: It's always just shouting angry all the time. You're Gestapo,
25:08
Speaker 11: You're the fascist, and it's just crazy, and it does
25:11
Speaker 11: the American people the real disservices.
25:14
Speaker 3: And the Vice president waiting on the arrest of Don
25:17
Speaker 3: Lemon after that storming of a church in Minnesota, JD
25:22
Speaker 3: did not hold back.
25:24
Speaker 16: Mentioned the press a minute ago, someone who claims to
25:27
Speaker 16: be a member of it. Is Don Lemon who's been arrested.
25:31
Speaker 5: Now, the dumbest man in television.
25:32
Speaker 16: Yea. I mean, he's under arrest because he stormed a
25:38
Speaker 16: church in the middle of a Sunday service along with
25:41
Speaker 16: a lot of other writers and disruptive people trying to worship.
25:45
Speaker 16: He's trying to cloak himself in the First Amendment, saying
25:47
Speaker 16: this is an attack on freedom of the press.
25:49
Speaker 5: And you say what, well, I say.
25:51
Speaker 11: First, don no one's objecting to you standing outside of
25:55
Speaker 11: the church and protesting. No one's objecting to you to
25:58
Speaker 11: no one's saying you can't protest the Trump administration's immigration.
26:01
Speaker 5: Policies for frankl Our policies.
26:03
Speaker 1: On anything else.
26:04
Speaker 11: What you cannot do is go into somebody's house of
26:06
Speaker 11: worship and prevent them from exercising their First Amendment right
26:10
Speaker 11: to the free exercise of religion.
26:12
Speaker 1: That's what happened.
26:13
Speaker 11: By the way, there's a federal law on the books
26:15
Speaker 11: that says you're not allowed to interrupt churches. You're not
26:17
Speaker 11: allowed to prevent people from entering or leaving a church.
26:21
Speaker 11: And the Biden administration aggressively prosecuted people. Where was Don
26:24
Speaker 11: Lemon when people were getting aggressively prosecuted for sham violations
26:28
Speaker 11: of the Face Act. We have a rock solid violation
26:31
Speaker 11: of the Face Act, which is you were sticking a
26:34
Speaker 11: microphone in the face of a minister during the church
26:38
Speaker 11: service while the people you were with were preventing people
26:41
Speaker 11: from leaving.
26:42
Speaker 5: That's a violation of the law.
26:43
Speaker 11: That's not about the First Amendment.
26:45
Speaker 3: Let's bring in president of the Center of the American
26:48
Speaker 3: Experiment and co founder of the popular power Line blog,
26:52
Speaker 3: John Heinderreika. The mayhem is happening in your home state.
26:57
Speaker 3: ICE is operating around the US, but it's only in
27:01
Speaker 3: Minnesota that we are seeing this sort of violent uprising
27:05
Speaker 3: on a regular basis, with law enforcement being obstructed, being attacked,
27:11
Speaker 3: and we also had this storming of a church that
27:14
Speaker 3: has led to the arrest of Don Lemon.
27:18
Speaker 14: Yeah, the reason, Rita, is that our elected officials, starting
27:21
Speaker 14: with Governor Tim Walls and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Fry, are
27:25
Speaker 14: openly encouraging the rioting and the interfering with ICE's efforts
27:31
Speaker 14: to apprehend illegal aliens, which of course is a federal crime.
27:35
Speaker 14: These officials are trying to make it impossible to enforce
27:40
Speaker 14: federal law in Minnesota. It is very much like what
27:44
Speaker 14: states like South Carolina did in the years leading up
27:47
Speaker 14: to the Civil War. Tim Walls has even taught publicly
27:51
Speaker 14: about being at war with the federal government. It has
27:54
Speaker 14: referred to Fort Sumter, which of course is where the
27:57
Speaker 14: Civil War began when South Carolina troops fired at a
28:02
Speaker 14: Union forked and Tim Wallas is actually invoking that. So
28:06
Speaker 14: the reason why things are so crazy in Minnesota, at
28:10
Speaker 14: least the primary reason, is because our elected officials are
28:14
Speaker 14: actively encouraging the lawlessness, and.
28:20
Speaker 3: They may have some motivation to do that because Minnesota
28:24
Speaker 3: was caught in an unprecedented fraud scandal, and we're not
28:27
Speaker 3: talking about that anymore.
28:29
Speaker 2: And President Donald.
28:30
Speaker 3: Trump has said that fraud in Minnesota is worse than
28:34
Speaker 3: what has been reported. He wrote, the theft and fraud
28:37
Speaker 3: in Minnesota is far greater than the nineteen billion dollars
28:41
Speaker 3: originally projected. The Biden administration knew this fraud was happening
28:45
Speaker 3: and did absolutely nothing about it. John, He's singled out
28:49
Speaker 3: Democrat Congresswoman Elin Omar and the governors in Walls has
28:53
Speaker 3: been complicit in this unprecedented fraud.
28:56
Speaker 2: Do you say it that way?
28:59
Speaker 14: Well, it's been sickly happening here. Rita is that this
29:02
Speaker 14: was a vote buying schemes. Certainly, Governor Tim Walls knew
29:07
Speaker 14: that frauds were going on, Ill hand Omar knew they
29:09
Speaker 14: were going on, and they did nothing because they wanted
29:12
Speaker 14: to encourage all of this money flowing out into the
29:16
Speaker 14: Somali community. What happened here is that the DFL party
29:21
Speaker 14: pumped billions and billions of dollars into the Somali community
29:25
Speaker 14: here in Minnesota and created a voting block that is
29:28
Speaker 14: decisive in close elections. So it didn't make any difference
29:32
Speaker 14: to Tim Walls or ill hand Omar whether the dollars
29:35
Speaker 14: that were being pumped out were legitimate or were fraudulent,
29:39
Speaker 14: they were dollars that were going to their voters. Now,
29:42
Speaker 14: ill had Omar drafted the law that created the program
29:46
Speaker 14: that enabled the five hundred million dollars feeding our future fraud.
29:52
Speaker 14: And she also reported her own financial reports that her
29:55
Speaker 14: net worth went from essentially zero to thirty million dollars
30:00
Speaker 14: in what year? How is there a connection? We don't know,
30:05
Speaker 14: but she certainly benefits from the Somali voting block that
30:09
Speaker 14: those government programs have created.
30:13
Speaker 3: And talking about the governor's in Walls, there he's complicity
30:17
Speaker 3: in the dysfunction in Minnesota. The fraud and in Minnesota
30:23
Speaker 3: was discussed earlier today.
30:24
Speaker 2: Let's hear from David Hosh.
30:26
Speaker 3: He's the independent journalist who featured in Nick Shirley's videos
30:29
Speaker 3: exposing fraud in Minnesota. He testified to lawmakers on Capital
30:34
Speaker 3: Hill earlier today.
30:36
Speaker 17: So going back to whether Governor Walls knew about it,
30:39
Speaker 17: Governor Walls admitted knowing about the fraud earliness first term,
30:43
Speaker 17: which would take twenty twenty. Well Minnesota Statue three point
30:47
Speaker 17: ninety seven to one subdivision nine clearly says that if
30:51
Speaker 17: you are made aware of fraud in a state agency,
30:54
Speaker 17: you are obligated to immediately report that fraud to the
30:58
Speaker 17: Office of the Legislative Auditor immediately.
31:01
Speaker 3: John Tim Walls did not report the fraud to the
31:04
Speaker 3: Office of the Legislative Auditor. He claims he did tell
31:08
Speaker 3: the FBI. Will there be any sort of reckoning for
31:13
Speaker 3: his well, lack of leadership his own Whether it was
31:17
Speaker 3: inetness or complicity, it really doesn't matter. He was governor
31:21
Speaker 3: and he seemed to not have his mind on the job.
31:25
Speaker 3: We know he's not running again, but could he possibly
31:29
Speaker 3: have an investigation into how he handled this matter?
31:34
Speaker 14: Well, first of all, I read it the claim that
31:36
Speaker 14: you just heard there by Tim Walls that he somehow
31:39
Speaker 14: called in the FBI, He tipped off the FBI and
31:43
Speaker 14: was investigated by the Minnesota Legislative Auditor, and it was
31:46
Speaker 14: found to be false. Walls did notify the FBI. It
31:49
Speaker 14: was the FBI that came to Walls and said that
31:52
Speaker 14: they were about to execute search words in connection with
31:55
Speaker 14: what became known is Thefitting our Future fraud. The prosecutor
32:00
Speaker 14: of that massive fraud was carried out entirely by the
32:03
Speaker 14: federal government, the FBI and the United States Attorney for
32:07
Speaker 14: the District of Minnesota. They've charged I think seventy eight
32:10
Speaker 14: criminal defendants. Now, Tim Walls and his attorney general had
32:14
Speaker 14: nothing to do with it. They played no role whatsoever.
32:17
Speaker 14: They were bystanders at best and beneficiaries of the fraud. So,
32:22
Speaker 14: as you said, Tim Walls has been pulled out of
32:24
Speaker 14: the race by the National Democratic Party. His political career
32:28
Speaker 14: appears to be over, and there are reports that he's
32:31
Speaker 14: been referred to for some criminal investigation. I'm doubtful that's
32:36
Speaker 14: going to go anywhere, but we'll see what happens.
32:40
Speaker 3: Now, I think we should leave the last word about
32:43
Speaker 3: Governor Tim Wolls to Senator John Kennedy from the gright
32:47
Speaker 3: side of Louisiana.
32:49
Speaker 18: Governor Tim Walsh, whatever he says, believe the opposite. I'm sorry,
32:56
Speaker 18: the man learned a lie before we learned a talk.
32:59
Speaker 1: He's just I can't hope for you crack me up.
33:05
Speaker 18: Well, he's just a less a less masculine version of
33:09
Speaker 18: Hillary Clinton.
33:11
Speaker 14: Oh manh Tim Walls is a less masculine version of
33:18
Speaker 14: Hillary Clinton.
33:19
Speaker 2: That's going to stick in my mind.
33:20
Speaker 3: Now, let's have a look at this clash between Senator
33:23
Speaker 3: Ted Cruz and the cose of Netflix during a Senate
33:28
Speaker 3: hearing on Netflix's pending eighty three billion dollar attempt to
33:33
Speaker 3: acquire Warner Brothers Discoveries, streaming and studio assets.
33:38
Speaker 19: Look, Netflix has long been a left wing company. Your founder,
33:48
Speaker 19: Read Hastings, is one of the biggest Democrat donors in
33:51
Speaker 19: the country, including giving millions recently to the massive gerrymander
33:56
Speaker 19: in California, making it one of the most gerrymandered states
33:58
Speaker 19: in the Union. Because your founder desperately wants a Democrat
34:02
Speaker 19: House of Representatives, Susan Rice from the Obama White House
34:06
Speaker 19: is on your board of directors. You guys, gave fifty
34:09
Speaker 19: million dollars to the Obamas, as far as I can tell,
34:11
Speaker 19: to produce no discernible content whatsoever. How would you tell
34:17
Speaker 19: a Texan sitting at home to feel comfortable. CNN is
34:20
Speaker 19: already a dumpster fire. There's nothing resembling objectivity, There's nothing
34:26
Speaker 19: resembling journalism anymore. How are people at home, How should
34:32
Speaker 19: they feel even remotely confident that if this merger happens,
34:36
Speaker 19: the combined entity would not simply be a propaganda outlet
34:40
Speaker 19: pushing one particular political view with much greater market power
34:44
Speaker 19: than you have now.
34:46
Speaker 5: Well, so we would fail.
34:48
Speaker 1: We would fail pushing a political view or propaganda. We
34:52
Speaker 1: deliver entertainment to consumers.
34:54
Speaker 15: Our consumers see our business pretty much the way they
34:57
Speaker 15: see the America. About forty percent conservative, about forty percent liberal,
35:01
Speaker 15: about twenty percent don't know, Oh.
35:03
Speaker 2: John, that's not at all accurate, is it?
35:06
Speaker 3: And Netflix's political bias is pretty evident in its programming,
35:10
Speaker 3: throughout its programming, even children's programming, and to pretend otherwise
35:15
Speaker 3: is really insulting the audience.
35:18
Speaker 1: Reader.
35:19
Speaker 14: The entire entertainment industry is left wing, almost to thought exception,
35:23
Speaker 14: and Netflix is notoriously liberal. There are these Netflix memes
35:27
Speaker 14: and you've seen them, you know what I'm talking about.
35:30
Speaker 14: Netflix program and then there's the Netflix version. And in
35:34
Speaker 14: the Netflix version, all the characters are non white and gay.
35:39
Speaker 14: It is a standing joke.
35:41
Speaker 1: We see it.
35:42
Speaker 14: All the time. These people are not fooling anyone, They're not.
35:48
Speaker 2: And to go to that Senate hearing and just.
35:55
Speaker 3: Deny the obvious, I mean, it's one thing to say
35:58
Speaker 3: we exist in an industry where the artistic community leans
36:03
Speaker 3: a certain way, so the content they produce is naturally
36:06
Speaker 3: going to be left leaning. You could make an explanation
36:09
Speaker 3: for it, but just to deny the reality is just
36:12
Speaker 3: so insulting to the audience. Now before you go, the
36:16
Speaker 3: French cybercrime unit has raided the Paris offices of Elon
36:21
Speaker 3: Musk's ex as part of a year long investigation, and
36:23
Speaker 3: they have summoned the billionaire to front of hearing over
36:26
Speaker 3: his platforms suspected algorithm abuse and what they call fraudulent
36:31
Speaker 3: data extraction. But John, I do suspect this has got
36:35
Speaker 3: a lot more to do with Elon Musk being a
36:39
Speaker 3: free speech warrior and not allowing the bureaucratic class to
36:43
Speaker 3: dictate what people can say and discuss online rita.
36:48
Speaker 14: There is a huge battle over free speech going on
36:50
Speaker 14: in Europe and a big part of it has to
36:52
Speaker 14: do with social media. The European Union has adopted the
36:55
Speaker 14: Digital Services Act, which requires platforms like x to engage
37:01
Speaker 14: in content moderation under very vague standards, and many people
37:06
Speaker 14: think that what they're going to suppress is conservative content
37:10
Speaker 14: and content that is critical of their own government. So
37:13
Speaker 14: the US has been pushing back against those efforts. What
37:17
Speaker 14: I suspect is going on here is part of that
37:20
Speaker 14: larger battle over whether American ideas of free speech will
37:25
Speaker 14: prevail in Europe or whether European censorship will be imposed
37:30
Speaker 14: by American companies.
37:32
Speaker 2: John Heinderreicher, thanks for your time tonight.
37:35
Speaker 14: Thank you.
37:35
Speaker 12: Rita.
37:36
Speaker 3: Still to come fresh revelations about Andrew mount Batton Wins's relationship.
37:41
Speaker 2: With Jeffrey Epstein.
37:43
Speaker 3: Kinsey Schofield has the details. Welcome back. Joining me now
37:56
Speaker 3: is celebrity and royal commentator Kinsey Schofield. Kinsey, the man
38:01
Speaker 3: once known as Prince Andrew has moved out of the
38:04
Speaker 3: Royal Lodge a week earlier than expected, reportedly under intense
38:08
Speaker 3: pressure from his brother, King Charles, following the latest Epstein
38:13
Speaker 3: files release. Kinsey, what more can you tell me?
38:17
Speaker 20: Well, that Andrew mount Batton Windsor is now effectively living
38:20
Speaker 20: in the exile that we anticipated, and it's hard to
38:25
Speaker 20: see a path back with new devastating allegations of sex trafficking,
38:29
Speaker 20: active investigations by the Metropolitan Police that are new and
38:34
Speaker 20: increasingly disturbing details emerging about his time in relationship with
38:38
Speaker 20: Jeffrey Epstein.
38:39
Speaker 9: The walls are closing in.
38:41
Speaker 20: This isn't just a personal disgrace, I would argue it's
38:43
Speaker 20: the most damaging crisis to hit the British monarchy since
38:46
Speaker 20: the abdication because it strikes at the institution's moral authority,
38:51
Speaker 20: not just its image.
38:55
Speaker 3: Emails released as part of the Epstein files revealed that
38:59
Speaker 3: Gilain Maxwell confirmed to Jeffrey Epstein back in twenty fifteen
39:03
Speaker 3: that that infamous photo of Andrew Matt Batten Windsor with
39:07
Speaker 3: his arm around the waist of Virginia Giuffrey was in
39:11
Speaker 3: fact real. Kinsey, the former Prince repeatedly questioned the authenticity
39:16
Speaker 3: of that image and denied he'd ever met.
39:19
Speaker 20: Virginia exactly, and that's why his credibility is completely shot.
39:24
Speaker 20: Four years he insisted that this was fake, it was misleading, he'd.
39:29
Speaker 9: Never met her.
39:30
Speaker 20: Now we have these emails showing Glane privately confirming to
39:34
Speaker 20: Jeffrey Epstein that the photo was in fact real. That
39:37
Speaker 20: doesn't just contradict Andrew's public denials, it destroys them.
39:42
Speaker 9: When your version of.
39:43
Speaker 20: Events collapses against documented evidence, you don't get the benefit
39:47
Speaker 20: of the doubt anymore, Kinsey.
39:49
Speaker 3: Even more revelations about Andrew Matt Badden Winsor's conduct in
39:53
Speaker 3: the latest Epstein document dumb in an email dated twenty
39:57
Speaker 3: third of March twenty eleven, a lawyer for an exotic
40:01
Speaker 3: dancer made bombshell claims that Jeffrey Epstein and Prince Andrew
40:05
Speaker 3: or the man known as Prince Andrew back then demanded
40:08
Speaker 3: a threesome with his client and treated her like a prostitute,
40:13
Speaker 3: despite the fact she was hired by Epstein to dance,
40:16
Speaker 3: only not to have sexual intercourse. Kinsey, the lawyer, alleges
40:20
Speaker 3: that after intense pressure from the pairs, she did perform
40:25
Speaker 3: various sex acts on the men.
40:27
Speaker 20: It never paid her the money that they promised her.
40:30
Speaker 20: Imagine being his daughters and seeing these headlines in the paper,
40:33
Speaker 20: and I say that with empathy while recognizing that they
40:37
Speaker 20: were adults, his daughters when they got on an airplane
40:40
Speaker 20: with their mother to visit to the convicted sex offender
40:43
Speaker 20: shortly after.
40:44
Speaker 9: He was released from jail.
40:46
Speaker 20: A lot of questionable decision making happening within this family.
40:53
Speaker 11: Now.
40:53
Speaker 3: Bill Gates has denied claims made about.
40:56
Speaker 2: His conduct in the Epstein files.
40:58
Speaker 3: In an interview with nine News Australia, he is what
41:01
Speaker 3: he had to say.
41:03
Speaker 21: It's actually true that I was only at dinners. You know,
41:06
Speaker 21: I never went to the Island. I never met any women,
41:09
Speaker 21: and so you know, the more that comes out, the
41:10
Speaker 21: more clear it'll be that although the time was a mistake,
41:15
Speaker 21: it had nothing to do with that kind of behavior.
41:20
Speaker 3: Kinsey, his fumer wife, has also been spaking out what
41:24
Speaker 3: does she had to say?
41:26
Speaker 20: She said we should put some pressure on her ex
41:29
Speaker 20: husband to talk to have to answer some pretty tough questions.
41:35
Speaker 20: You know, she's saying, yeah, I think that I'm loving
41:39
Speaker 20: this negative attention. Quite frankly, this will be a problem
41:42
Speaker 20: for both Gates in the future, whether you believe.
41:44
Speaker 2: Him or not.
41:45
Speaker 20: Once false information is out there, it can persist in memory.
41:49
Speaker 20: This is science. It persists in memory even after people
41:52
Speaker 20: know it's false. It's a phenomenon sometimes referred to as
41:55
Speaker 20: belief perseverance. People may remember the content but forget whether
41:59
Speaker 20: it was debunked, leading to that lingering influence. These headlines
42:05
Speaker 20: have been so sensational that some have already consumed them
42:08
Speaker 20: as truth, and there's no turning back.
42:09
Speaker 9: This is horrible for his legacy.
42:14
Speaker 2: Oh absolutely.
42:15
Speaker 3: He's made emphatic denials about a lot of these allegations,
42:20
Speaker 3: but he also wants the public to believe that he
42:24
Speaker 3: was fairly naive in his dealings with Jeffrey Epstein. And
42:27
Speaker 3: this is a man who's considered by many a genius,
42:31
Speaker 3: is a billionaire. He built this massive company and normally
42:36
Speaker 3: those people aren't naive, but he does emphatically deny any wrongdoing.
42:41
Speaker 3: Now gb News has sent a reporter to Billie Eilish's
42:46
Speaker 3: mansion to question her about her stolen land Grammy's ran
42:50
Speaker 3: after the local indigenous tribe said in a statement that
42:54
Speaker 3: the complex is located on their land, their ancestral land,
42:57
Speaker 3: and that the singer had failed to contack them about it.
43:01
Speaker 3: He's had the attempt to access her property went.
43:06
Speaker 6: First of all, isn't that ironic massive gates keeping people out?
43:10
Speaker 5: I thought Billy didn't believe in borders. The lights on,
43:13
Speaker 5: so somebody must be home. Let us in, please, Billy.
43:16
Speaker 6: We are here because this is stolen land, Billy, and
43:19
Speaker 6: we think we should be given access to your quite
43:21
Speaker 6: lovely three million dollar mansion.
43:26
Speaker 3: Very very amusing work. We also have an Australian Kinsey
43:30
Speaker 3: Drew Pavlou, who was on the show earlier in the week.
43:33
Speaker 3: He's also going to Malibu. He wants to move into
43:36
Speaker 3: Billy's mansion because he says no one is illegal on
43:39
Speaker 3: stolen land.
43:41
Speaker 9: First of all, good luck to Drill.
43:43
Speaker 20: But I mean Billie Eilish has built her brand on
43:45
Speaker 20: rejecting attention. She says she's shy, She says she wants
43:48
Speaker 20: to stay above the fray and doesn't want the circus.
43:51
Speaker 20: And yet here she is with international media on her doorstep.
43:55
Speaker 9: That contradiction is the problem.
43:57
Speaker 20: This was a moment that required nothing more than thinking
44:00
Speaker 20: the audience, accepting the trophy and moving on.
44:02
Speaker 9: Instead, she chose.
44:03
Speaker 20: To make a loaded statement, and now she's dealing with
44:07
Speaker 20: the entirely predictable consequences. You don't get to claim you
44:10
Speaker 20: hate attention while actively inviting it in this way, and.
44:15
Speaker 3: Such an inane comment just contradictory. You can't say you
44:20
Speaker 3: were on stolen land and also not believe in borders.
44:23
Speaker 2: And anyone can go anywhere, I mean, just pick a lane.
44:27
Speaker 3: Don Lemon has sat down with Jimmy Kimmel is playing
44:31
Speaker 3: the victim again after he was arrested for storming a
44:35
Speaker 3: Minneapolis church during Sunday prayers. Mind you, here he is
44:39
Speaker 3: claiming the FEDS wanted to embarrass him with his arrest.
44:44
Speaker 9: They want to embarrass you, They want to impemitate you.
44:46
Speaker 13: They want to instill fear, and so that's why they
44:48
Speaker 13: did it that way.
44:49
Speaker 20: Mugshot, fingerprints the whole nine yards.
44:52
Speaker 3: Twice, Kinsey, he is a loving every second of this,
44:57
Speaker 3: including all that Hollywood.
44:59
Speaker 20: Actually, Don Lemon, I believe is what Tucker Carlson used
45:04
Speaker 20: to refer to him as has spent years courting controversy
45:08
Speaker 20: from on air remarks.
45:10
Speaker 9: Criticized as sexist and agists.
45:12
Speaker 20: You and I are passed our prime, by the way,
45:14
Speaker 20: our expiration date was a long time ago.
45:16
Speaker 2: Course.
45:17
Speaker 20: Yeah to the radical Yeah, exactly, to radically charged commentary
45:23
Speaker 20: that even his former network struggled to defend. CNN repeatedly
45:26
Speaker 20: sidelined him, they reshuffled him, ultimately cutting ties. Not because
45:31
Speaker 20: of one slip up, because the drama became the brand.
45:34
Speaker 9: And at this point it's hard to ignore that pattern.
45:36
Speaker 20: Don Lemon doesn't just thrive on attention, he requires it,
45:40
Speaker 20: whether it's praise or backlash, positive or negative. The spotlight
45:43
Speaker 20: itself is the goal. That is not journalism. I'm sorry,
45:49
Speaker 20: I know.
45:50
Speaker 2: And he put it all to air.
45:52
Speaker 3: This is a thing for him to pretend he was
45:55
Speaker 3: just there reporting it was just had nothing to do
45:59
Speaker 3: with the plan. He had no insight into the illegal
46:04
Speaker 3: stuff that was about to go down.
46:06
Speaker 2: Give me a break.
46:06
Speaker 3: I mean, that's when you put all that stuff to
46:09
Speaker 3: where you're kind of giving a bunch of evidence to
46:13
Speaker 3: the prosecution.
46:14
Speaker 2: Now.
46:15
Speaker 3: President Donald Trump has reached out to Today's Show anca
46:18
Speaker 3: Savannah Guthrie via a phone call to show his support
46:22
Speaker 3: after her elderly mother, Nancy, went missing earlier in the week.
46:26
Speaker 3: Guthrie has also released a video statement alongside members of
46:30
Speaker 3: her family.
46:31
Speaker 2: Here's what she had to say.
46:33
Speaker 22: We want to thank all of you for the prayers
46:35
Speaker 22: for our beloved mom, Nancy. We two have heard the
46:39
Speaker 22: reports about a ransom letter in the media. As a family,
46:45
Speaker 22: we are doing everything that we can. We are ready
46:50
Speaker 22: to talk.
46:52
Speaker 3: This is just such a sad and mysterious case, Kinsey,
46:58
Speaker 3: What do we know at this stage.
47:00
Speaker 20: I mean, the entire country is so captivated by this story.
47:04
Speaker 20: It is like watching a horror film in real time.
47:08
Speaker 20: The blood splatter on the porch of her mother's house,
47:12
Speaker 20: the ring door cam ripped off the wall, It's terrifying.
47:16
Speaker 20: Donald Trump did call her and say, I will give
47:19
Speaker 20: you absolutely every government resource I can. I will do
47:22
Speaker 20: everything in my power to help find your mother. The
47:25
Speaker 20: FBI is now involved, but time is of the essence,
47:28
Speaker 20: as she needs medication and our ultimate concern is that
47:32
Speaker 20: they won't get to her in time. So obviously, if
47:36
Speaker 20: somebody's watching us on YouTube or out there and they
47:38
Speaker 20: have any information, please contact the Tucson Police Department.
47:41
Speaker 9: But this is a very scary story.
47:45
Speaker 3: And before you go, Kinsey, Vogue has done a feature
47:49
Speaker 3: on California Governor Gavin Newsom, and the common section on
47:53
Speaker 3: vogues Instagram page is a pretty epic. Give me some insights.
47:58
Speaker 3: I read the opening pause of this story and it
48:02
Speaker 3: was vomit inducing.
48:04
Speaker 20: Oh my gosh, I would have loved to have been
48:06
Speaker 20: a fly on the wall watching you do that.
48:07
Speaker 9: Overwhelmingly negative responses. Some of my favorite comments include pure evil.
48:12
Speaker 20: So disappointed in this. He sure was in a hurry
48:15
Speaker 20: to destroy California. Vogue Magazine, do your research better next time.
48:20
Speaker 20: I don't know anybody in California that likes this guy.
48:22
Speaker 20: I just threw up bad choice on this one. Many
48:26
Speaker 20: of us in California think he has ruined the state.
48:29
Speaker 20: Agree with what others have said. Hard Pass. You lost
48:31
Speaker 20: credibility for me on this one, and he destroyed California Vogue.
48:36
Speaker 9: Do you listen to your audience. I mean, this is
48:38
Speaker 9: not what we want.
48:41
Speaker 3: It's not and this is a publication that refuses to
48:45
Speaker 3: feature Milania Trump on the cover, and yet they want
48:50
Speaker 3: to run these ridiculous fluff pieces on what is going
48:55
Speaker 3: to be a presidential hopeful. Let's face it, They're not
48:58
Speaker 3: running this to promote him as California governor.
49:01
Speaker 2: This is all to build his homage for the.
49:04
Speaker 3: Next Oh, of course, Yeah, that podcast went very well.
49:08
Speaker 3: I mean this just shows you the character of the
49:11
Speaker 3: man because one of the first guests on his podcast
49:14
Speaker 3: was Charlie Kirk. He did him a huge favor by
49:16
Speaker 3: going on to his podcast, giving him that enormous reach
49:21
Speaker 3: that Charlie had, and then after his death, he was
49:27
Speaker 3: so ungracious. After Charlie was murdered, he took back the
49:31
Speaker 3: comments about how excited his son was about Charlie coming
49:35
Speaker 3: in and the prospect of meeting Charlie. He completely rewrote
49:39
Speaker 3: history there and I think that tells you everything you
49:41
Speaker 3: need to know about Governor Newsome Kinsiscofield. Thanks for your time,
49:47
Speaker 3: and that's all the time we have. Don't go anywhere.
49:50
Speaker 3: News Night is coming up next.
