- 0:02Speaker 1: On scaring Lands Australia. This is the Wider Panalty Show.
- 0:09Speaker 2: Good evening and welcome to the readA Paney Show.
- 0:11Speaker 3: Coming up tonight is Australia a welfare state. The data
- 0:15Speaker 3: shows more than half of the population is dependent on
- 0:18Speaker 3: government payments for their main source of income. The panel
- 0:22Speaker 3: will be here to discuss that. The smartest man in
- 0:25Speaker 3: any room, Douglas Murray, will join me before the first
- 0:28Speaker 3: ad break, and.
- 0:29Speaker 2: He has illegal immigration and the un on his mind.
- 0:32Speaker 2: You don't want to miss that. Me Horowitz will have
- 0:35Speaker 2: the latest from the US.
- 0:36Speaker 3: Including details about Hillary Clinton's psycho emotional problems, and later
- 0:43Speaker 3: in the hour, Kins's Schofield we'll tell us why Netflix
- 0:46Speaker 3: wants to part ways with Harry and Meghan and LEFTI
- 0:50Speaker 3: is Losing It features Trump, deranged Hollywood stars including Alec Baldwin.
- 0:56Speaker 1: Seems to me, seems to me, You send me money.
- 1:04Speaker 2: But first.
- 1:04Speaker 3: A report from the Center for Independent Studies has found
- 1:07Speaker 3: that more than half of Australian voters are dependent on
- 1:11Speaker 3: government payments for their main source of income. This is
- 1:15Speaker 3: through public sector wages, welfare benefits or subsidies. The largest
- 1:20Speaker 3: part being the ndis the National Disability insurance scheme currently
- 1:25Speaker 3: accounts for around fifty two billion CIS. Senior fellow Robert
- 1:30Speaker 3: Carling said a culture of dependency and entitlement has taken
- 1:34Speaker 3: route in the population and political behavior has become only
- 1:38Speaker 3: too willing to accommodate and encourage it in a feedback loop.
- 1:43Speaker 3: And the Australian Industry Group is also warning that the
- 1:46Speaker 3: jobs data we're seeing is hiding the fact that we're
- 1:50Speaker 3: now increasingly dependent on the government to keep the economy afloat.
- 1:54Speaker 2: In a media.
- 1:55Speaker 3: Release, they said since the pandemic, the labor market has
- 1:58Speaker 3: become increasingly driven by to groups the public sector and
- 2:02Speaker 3: the non market private industries of health, education and public administration.
- 2:08Speaker 3: These industries have seen employment surge by seventeen and forty
- 2:11Speaker 3: three percent respectively since twenty nineteen. By contrast, the private
- 2:16Speaker 3: sector has added only nine percent more jobs. Joining me
- 2:21Speaker 3: more is for more on this is the panel former
- 2:24Speaker 3: Victorian Liberal Party president Michael Kroger and founder of Adoni
- 2:29Speaker 3: Media Lisa Goddard. Michael, I'll start with you, none of
- 2:34Speaker 3: this is desirable.
- 2:36Speaker 2: Or indeed sustainable.
- 2:38Speaker 1: No, it's not sustainable. It's at Robney moment.
- 2:41Speaker 4: If you remember back to the campaign where he was
- 2:42Speaker 4: involved and warned that it was very hard for him
- 2:44Speaker 4: in an election when I think fifty one percent of
- 2:48Speaker 4: the American public were relying on some form of benefit.
- 2:52Speaker 1: This is unsustainable. This is the point.
- 2:54Speaker 4: I mean, debt in Australia at gros deets heading to
- 2:56Speaker 4: one point two trillion. It was nine hundred billion when
- 3:00Speaker 4: Albanzi came to office, so it's increasing three hundred billion
- 3:02Speaker 4: dollars during his two terms.
- 3:04Speaker 1: Is completely unsustainable.
- 3:05Speaker 4: As the AI Group says, employment is low, unemployment is
- 3:09Speaker 4: low only because we're massively increasing jobs in the public sector.
- 3:12Speaker 4: That's not sustainable. These payments by the government are not sustainable.
- 3:16Speaker 4: We have a debt time bomb in this country. But
- 3:18Speaker 4: as they do in lots of Western countries, with the
- 3:20Speaker 4: demand for public expenditure is greater than the capacity of
- 3:24Speaker 4: the government delivered. And it means one thing reader, in Australia,
- 3:26Speaker 4: they're going to be tax risers in the next few years.
- 3:31Speaker 3: But Lisa, what politician is really going to seriously tackle
- 3:35Speaker 3: this issue when half the country, half the voters, is
- 3:38Speaker 3: dependent on tax pay funds for their main source of income.
- 3:43Speaker 5: Yeah, Rudy, you're exactly right. You've got so many males
- 3:46Speaker 5: in this country now relying on the government for the
- 3:48Speaker 5: money to feed themselves. So's that actually engineered this if
- 3:51Speaker 5: you think about it. We all talk about branch stacking
- 3:54Speaker 5: when it comes to political parties. What the Labor government
- 3:57Speaker 5: has managed to do here is pretty much engineer. You're
- 4:00Speaker 5: an electorate voting branch stacking system where they've got the
- 4:04Speaker 5: votes there. People are so reliant on the government now
- 4:06Speaker 5: they're not going to turn the back on them because
- 4:07Speaker 5: it's the old adage you don't bite the hand that
- 4:09Speaker 5: feeds you. So when it comes to election time, they
- 4:11Speaker 5: showing themselves up.
- 4:15Speaker 3: Now, Parliament is back in session this week and Labor
- 4:18Speaker 3: is pumping out more cringeworthy social media content. Let's have
- 4:22Speaker 3: a look at the PM strolling into Parliament like he's
- 4:26Speaker 3: on some sort of a catwalk. Is he instant influencer
- 4:29Speaker 3: these days? I do love the music that goes with that.
- 4:37Speaker 3: And here is the arrest of them.
- 4:39Speaker 2: We're in good hands. Well, Lisa, I'll start with you.
- 4:49Speaker 2: Handsome boy has really taken to the Monika.
- 4:52Speaker 3: That video of him strolling in looking very sharp in
- 4:56Speaker 3: his suit.
- 4:57Speaker 2: What are they thinking? I'm not so sure.
- 5:01Speaker 5: When there's so much criticism about the fact that Albanezy
- 5:04Speaker 5: can't get a meeting with Trump. But if you're his
- 5:06Speaker 5: media managery, social media manager, you really want him out there.
- 5:09Speaker 5: In the slow mow motion that you've got in this video.
- 5:13Speaker 5: He's already acting slow enough according to most people. I
- 5:16Speaker 5: think we saw it through the campaign leading into the election,
- 5:19Speaker 5: and the young people they loved what they were doing
- 5:22Speaker 5: on social media. But we watch that and it's absolute
- 5:24Speaker 5: cringe factor. You're right, and I just don't think that
- 5:26Speaker 5: the average OSSI is going to look at that and think,
- 5:28Speaker 5: you know what, that's leadership there.
- 5:30Speaker 2: It's not working.
- 5:31Speaker 5: I don't think.
- 5:34Speaker 3: Well, let's move on to more significant issues. Another big
- 5:37Speaker 3: win for the Trump administration. The alban Easy government is
- 5:40Speaker 3: lifting biosecurity restrictions on American beef imports and an attempt
- 5:44Speaker 3: to convince Donald Trump to lower its to lower US
- 5:48Speaker 3: tariffs on Australian products. Michael, the President has even hasn't
- 5:53Speaker 3: even met with Anthony alban Easy, and he's already getting
- 5:57Speaker 3: his way. We're not going into this negotiation form a
- 6:00Speaker 3: position of strength, are we.
- 6:03Speaker 4: No, We've got that embarrassing ambassador Kevin Rudd running around
- 6:07Speaker 4: in Washington trying to make himself.
- 6:09Speaker 1: Busy him look good.
- 6:11Speaker 4: You know, Trump has just announced the most amazing deal
- 6:13Speaker 4: with Japan, extraordinary and really positive for the United States
- 6:18Speaker 4: of America. I mean, they get massive benefits out of
- 6:21Speaker 4: that deal. The Japanese have worked very closely with the
- 6:25Speaker 4: Trump administration. In contrast, we've got this lame back ambassador
- 6:30Speaker 4: who's a well known critic of Donald Trump personally. We've
- 6:33Speaker 4: got a Prime minister who's a critic of Donald Trump personally.
- 6:35Speaker 4: Trump and the Americans know all this stuff, which is
- 6:38Speaker 4: why Australia don't see me doing very well in our negotiations. Okay,
- 6:43Speaker 4: so we've let American beef back here. Technically it wasn't banned,
- 6:46Speaker 4: but there have been no imports because of these biosecurity
- 6:49Speaker 4: issues with Mexico and Canada. But I think the bigger
- 6:52Speaker 4: point is Albanese he cannot seem to see it within
- 6:55Speaker 4: himself to.
- 6:57Speaker 1: Go and meet Trump.
- 6:58Speaker 4: Now, what he's going to do is meet him with
- 7:00Speaker 4: the sidelines of some of these conferences because he can't
- 7:02Speaker 4: possibly go to the White House. Who knows what would
- 7:04Speaker 4: happen in a meeting in the oval off. So no,
- 7:07Speaker 4: he's he's playing catch up. Australia is falling behind the
- 7:10Speaker 4: other it's competitive countries in relation to trade, and you
- 7:13Speaker 4: know the signs are not good, reader.
- 7:17Speaker 2: No, and Michael mentioned the deal with Japan. Lisa.
- 7:21Speaker 3: This ban lifting that we've announced comes a day after
- 7:25Speaker 3: that deal. It was a significant deal, massive. Japan's going
- 7:30Speaker 3: to be investing five hundred and fifty billion into the
- 7:33Speaker 3: US economy. They're going to lift import restrictions in exchange
- 7:37Speaker 3: for a reduction in US tariffs on Japanese imports. That's
- 7:40Speaker 3: going to drop from twenty five percent to fifteen percent, Lisa,
- 7:44Speaker 3: the number of countries doing deals with the US continues
- 7:48Speaker 3: to grow. Are we at risk of being left behind?
- 7:53Speaker 6: Well, you're right.
- 7:53Speaker 5: So Japan manages to get a meeting inside the White
- 7:56Speaker 5: House and do the deal on the tariffs. The Philippines
- 7:59Speaker 5: have also done the same thing. And I note that Trump,
- 8:01Speaker 5: after meeting with the Philippine president at the Oval Office,
- 8:04Speaker 5: then said that not only have they done this deal
- 8:06Speaker 5: on tariff's, but that he was happily looking forward to
- 8:09Speaker 5: working with the militarily as well. So if that isn't
- 8:11Speaker 5: sending a strong signal to the Australian government, Hey, we've
- 8:15Speaker 5: told you raise your defense spending.
- 8:17Speaker 7: That has to be a.
- 8:17Speaker 5: Critical point in meeting with Trump and getting this over
- 8:20Speaker 5: the line. And now today forgive me for being a
- 8:23Speaker 5: bit cynical here, but if I'm right, the review into
- 8:27Speaker 5: the US beef has been what's sitting on the shelves
- 8:29Speaker 5: for ten years, and now today they suddenly decided to
- 8:32Speaker 5: come out and say, well, this is a decision we're making.
- 8:34Speaker 5: You can't tell me that isn't playing into trying to
- 8:37Speaker 5: get some sort of deal with with Trump. Because if
- 8:39Speaker 5: I'm right, when we've got seven days a week tomorrow
- 8:42Speaker 5: until the deadline, the first of August deadline, so the
- 8:44Speaker 5: clock is chicking and it's ticking louder every minute when
- 8:47Speaker 5: it comes to trying to get this tariff situation under
- 8:50Speaker 5: control with the US.
- 8:53Speaker 3: Now, before you two go, I've got to get your
- 8:55Speaker 3: take on the net zero debate. There's a growing coalition
- 9:00Speaker 3: rising against net zero. West Australia, Queensland, South Australia and
- 9:05Speaker 3: n T divisions of the Liberal Party are set to
- 9:07Speaker 3: formally oppose the policy.
- 9:10Speaker 2: The National Party is likely to follow suit.
- 9:13Speaker 3: Michael Susan Lee needs to make some important policy decisions here.
- 9:18Speaker 3: We're seeing her posting embarrassing content on X and picks
- 9:23Speaker 3: with Julie Bishop on Instagram. Where is the policy where
- 9:27Speaker 3: we're going to find out where the Coalition stands on
- 9:29Speaker 3: this most crucial issue.
- 9:32Speaker 4: Well, I'm in favor of the Coalition releasing major policies
- 9:35Speaker 4: well before an election, not dropping them during the campaign,
- 9:38Speaker 4: because by then elections are usually lost. Question is whether
- 9:41Speaker 4: the Coalition wants to have a fight on energy policy
- 9:46Speaker 4: to environmental policy, which is essentially a Labor Party brand equity.
- 9:51Speaker 4: It's better that the Coalition fight on tags and economy
- 9:56Speaker 4: and work towards a way of providing massive tax cut
- 10:00Speaker 4: to the elector there's a central thesis for its election
- 10:03Speaker 4: campaign in twenty twenty eight and the big question is
- 10:06Speaker 4: how do you fund that? That should be the central
- 10:08Speaker 4: challenge for the Coalition I think going forward. Obviously, rural
- 10:13Speaker 4: people are cheesed off, to say the least, because all
- 10:16Speaker 4: these massive wind housing being built on rural land and
- 10:19Speaker 4: they've got an absolutely fair point offshore wind.
- 10:24Speaker 1: It seems to be collapsing in Australia.
- 10:27Speaker 3: It's more than that, Michael, it's at a cost of
- 10:31Speaker 3: living crisis.
- 10:33Speaker 2: Energy is central to that.
- 10:34Speaker 3: It impacts every household, every business, and as soon as
- 10:38Speaker 3: the Coalition embraced this madness, they ended up losing two
- 10:42Speaker 3: elections in fairly comprehensive fashion.
- 10:45Speaker 2: I would suggest the Australian wanting to.
- 10:49Speaker 4: Anyone knew the energy prices of the last election were
- 10:51Speaker 4: very high and leave us till one easily.
- 10:53Speaker 1: So I'm not sure that's quite right.
- 10:55Speaker 2: Yeah, because the coalition was signed up to net zero.
- 10:57Speaker 3: The Coalition didn't go into that election prioritizing cost and
- 11:02Speaker 3: reliability that were signed up to the same madness. So
- 11:05Speaker 3: if you don't give the Australian people a choice, they're
- 11:07Speaker 3: going to stick with at least the side that believes
- 11:09Speaker 3: in this craziness. Michael Croigalisa god Art, we've run out
- 11:13Speaker 3: of time. Thank you so much for your input tonight.
- 11:18Speaker 3: Joining me now is the author of groundbreaking works, international
- 11:21Speaker 3: best sellers, including The Strange Death of Europe, The Madness
- 11:24Speaker 3: of Crowds, The War on the West, and his latest
- 11:27Speaker 3: on Democracies and death cults.
- 11:30Speaker 2: Douglas Murray.
- 11:31Speaker 3: Let's start in the UK where Keir Starmer is talking tough.
- 11:35Speaker 3: He is going to smash the gangs, He's going to
- 11:37Speaker 3: stop the illegal immigration crisis. We've heard this talk from
- 11:42Speaker 3: the PM before. How serious is this policy and how
- 11:45Speaker 3: likely is it to succeed.
- 11:49Speaker 1: Well, it's very unlikely to succeed.
- 11:50Speaker 8: At the moment, he seems to be trumpeting a deal
- 11:54Speaker 8: he's done with French President Emanuel Mancroft for a so
- 11:57Speaker 8: called one in, one out policy. It's not clear to
- 12:01Speaker 8: me or to the British public. I think, why if
- 12:04Speaker 8: hundreds of people are managing to pour in every day
- 12:07Speaker 8: to the UK, you should trumpet a sort of occasionally
- 12:11Speaker 8: you'll get one person back out policy. But the main
- 12:16Speaker 8: thing is this the obsession that the government has with
- 12:20Speaker 8: smashing the gangs.
- 12:22Speaker 1: It's very typical politicking this.
- 12:25Speaker 8: It suggests that the problem of illegal migration is simply
- 12:29Speaker 8: that of the people smuggling gangs.
- 12:32Speaker 1: And that's very useful for left.
- 12:34Speaker 8: Wing government like Labor, because it presents it as if
- 12:38Speaker 8: as if there's no harm done by the illegal migrant
- 12:42Speaker 8: It is merely the criminal gangs.
- 12:45Speaker 1: Who bring them into the country who are.
- 12:46Speaker 8: The problem, As if these are like press gangs of
- 12:51Speaker 8: the Royal Navy in the eighteenth century, sort of rushing
- 12:54Speaker 8: around the streets, gathering migrants from the north of France
- 12:57Speaker 8: and forcing them onto boats to begin a.
- 13:00Speaker 1: New life in the UK. That isn't the case. So
- 13:03Speaker 1: people smuggling gangs.
- 13:04Speaker 8: Are part of the problem, but they're not themselves the problem.
- 13:09Speaker 8: They're just one part of it. The problem is is
- 13:13Speaker 8: that the government wants to put no onus on the
- 13:17Speaker 8: people who knowingly are illegally entering the UK, and that's
- 13:23Speaker 8: because they want to always cling to this idea that
- 13:27Speaker 8: the illegal migrant is always an asylum seeker, somebody with
- 13:31Speaker 8: a legitimate claim to be breaking into the country, and
- 13:34Speaker 8: that simply isn't the case. It's just politicking on their
- 13:38Speaker 8: part and.
- 13:39Speaker 1: A desire to never blame the people.
- 13:42Speaker 8: Who are actually the ones coming into the country breaking
- 13:45Speaker 8: the law.
- 13:48Speaker 3: Well, yes, and we're saying more and more sugar put
- 13:51Speaker 3: on the table. I don't know how you hope to
- 13:54Speaker 3: stop illegal immigration when you're providing ever greater incentives Douglas,
- 14:00Speaker 3: including giving landlords in the UK in parts of England
- 14:04Speaker 3: more favorable terms, including five year full rent agreements if
- 14:08Speaker 3: they provide housing to asylum seekers. So again that just
- 14:12Speaker 3: shows you where the policies and the retoric are.
- 14:15Speaker 2: Not matching up.
- 14:16Speaker 3: And we're seeing some protests and counter protests that clashes happening,
- 14:22Speaker 3: including outside a full star hotel in East London where
- 14:26Speaker 3: illegal immigrants will be housed. Here is a Greens counselor
- 14:30Speaker 3: and a protest to having a debate that got rather heated.
- 14:34Speaker 9: There are no safe legal roots for refugees to come
- 14:37Speaker 9: to this country. This is the only way that can
- 14:39Speaker 9: come here.
- 14:40Speaker 6: It's on a boat.
- 14:41Speaker 9: We have a lot of stakes, a lot of stakes
- 14:43Speaker 9: in the conflicts on the climate crisis that causes people
- 14:47Speaker 9: to be refugees and have to come to another country.
- 14:49Speaker 9: They're not choosing to leave their country, their home, their children,
- 14:54Speaker 9: their parents, children.
- 14:59Speaker 3: Excuse me, Douglas. The anger is palpable. Their people are
- 15:06Speaker 3: fed up. They've had years of this from the Tories,
- 15:09Speaker 3: the supposed Conservatives that govern like labor, and now we've
- 15:13Speaker 3: got a labor government who seemed to be governing like
- 15:16Speaker 3: the Greens.
- 15:19Speaker 8: Yes, they're simply forget always who the people are that
- 15:25Speaker 8: they're meant to represent. A member of Parliament in Britain
- 15:29Speaker 8: is not meant to represent the people of the world.
- 15:32Speaker 8: They're meant to represent the people of their constituency and
- 15:36Speaker 8: by extension, the.
- 15:37Speaker 1: People of the United Kingdom.
- 15:40Speaker 8: They're not meant to be the defense team for everybody
- 15:46Speaker 8: entering the country illegally. It's just the most preposterous abandonment
- 15:52Speaker 8: of their roles and of their duties.
- 15:55Speaker 1: It's really quite straightforward. Is the UK is not a
- 16:00Speaker 1: huge country.
- 16:02Speaker 8: It cannot take in all of the poor and dispossessed
- 16:05Speaker 8: of the world. It couldn't even take in all of
- 16:09Speaker 8: the people in the world who really do have legitimate
- 16:13Speaker 8: asylum claims. It couldn't do it. It couldn't take in all
- 16:16Speaker 8: of the people who would like to come with legitimate claims.
- 16:20Speaker 8: There's just no way the country would be overrun. But
- 16:22Speaker 8: another left left wing MP in the UK said last
- 16:27Speaker 8: week that the UK should continue this policy of allowing
- 16:32Speaker 8: illegals into the country until it is overwhelmed, until the
- 16:37Speaker 8: point at which the country is overwhelmed, and only then
- 16:40Speaker 8: would the country need to stop. That is, as I say,
- 16:44Speaker 8: that is an absolute abandonment of their duty. It is
- 16:48Speaker 8: MPs who are literally willing to crash the country with
- 16:53Speaker 8: a policy of allowing.
- 16:54Speaker 1: In endless numbers of people.
- 16:58Speaker 8: And as I say, the numbers are literally the country
- 17:00Speaker 8: could not take in all of the people who would
- 17:03Speaker 8: like to come with legitimate claims, and it certainly can't
- 17:06Speaker 8: take in all of the people in the world who
- 17:08Speaker 8: would like to come, who also don't have legitimate claims,
- 17:11Speaker 8: who are the vast majority of the people currently arriving.
- 17:17Speaker 2: Now.
- 17:17Speaker 3: Labor are hoping to hold on to power by lowering
- 17:21Speaker 3: the voting age. It's estimated they could secure half a
- 17:24Speaker 3: million more votes at the next election if sixteen and
- 17:28Speaker 3: seventeen year olds are allowed to vote. What do you
- 17:30Speaker 3: make of this plan, Douglas? Some argue the voting age
- 17:35Speaker 3: should be lifted, But should a sixteen year old seventeen
- 17:39Speaker 3: year old who can't even buy cigarettes, they can't buy alcohol,
- 17:42Speaker 3: they can't get married, should they be able to vote?
- 17:46Speaker 10: No?
- 17:46Speaker 8: Absolutely not. It's pure as Once again, it's pure politic.
- 17:51Speaker 8: The Labor Party is doing this for two reasons. One
- 17:54Speaker 8: is that they think the optics of it will make
- 17:57Speaker 8: them more attractive to younger voters and secondly, be assumed
- 17:59Speaker 8: that younger voters are going to be in their favor.
- 18:04Speaker 1: That's not necessarily the case.
- 18:06Speaker 8: It's a very interesting data showing, for instance, that younger
- 18:09Speaker 8: voters dispurportedly by population, are likely to vote for reform
- 18:14Speaker 8: UK Nigel parages party. That would be quite a funny
- 18:17Speaker 8: in the tale when did if that were to happen.
- 18:20Speaker 1: But as you mentioned, reach obviously the case that.
- 18:26Speaker 8: If you can't, you know, you're not deemed to be
- 18:28Speaker 8: of an age to buy cigarettes, to buy alcohol, to
- 18:31Speaker 8: be able to marry.
- 18:34Speaker 1: Why should you have the vote? By the way, it's
- 18:36Speaker 1: very interesting.
- 18:37Speaker 8: In the past week, at least two labor MPs I know,
- 18:40Speaker 8: including people in the government, didn't seem to realize when
- 18:44Speaker 8: interviewed on air, that you're not allowed to marry in
- 18:47Speaker 8: the UK at sixteen, So they don't even know the
- 18:51Speaker 8: laws as they exist, even as they tried to introduce new.
- 18:55Speaker 1: Laws like this.
- 18:58Speaker 3: Now let's go to the US and President Donald Trump
- 19:02Speaker 3: looks like he's going to be pulling the US out
- 19:04Speaker 3: of UNESCO, that's the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization.
- 19:11Speaker 2: This decision comes.
- 19:13Speaker 3: After a ninety day review and Douglas the organization was
- 19:17Speaker 3: deemed to be anti American, anti Israel, and PRODI, three
- 19:23Speaker 3: things that the Trump.
- 19:24Speaker 2: Administration does not like.
- 19:26Speaker 3: And it's not unprecedented. President Reagan also withdrew the US
- 19:32Speaker 3: from UNESCO.
- 19:33Speaker 2: What do you think of this decision?
- 19:36Speaker 8: Yes, I mean the Trump administration doesn't like anti American
- 19:40Speaker 8: international bodies. And that's something which is you would have
- 19:46Speaker 8: thought normally would be quite straightforward, quite obvious, not controversial.
- 19:51Speaker 8: But there are so many people, sadly, who seem to
- 19:54Speaker 8: think that any organization with un in the title must
- 20:00Speaker 8: be angels effectively.
- 20:04Speaker 1: And that that isn't the case. And there's this.
- 20:07Speaker 8: Fundamental misapprehension at the root of a lot of people's worldview,
- 20:12Speaker 8: which is that because something is an arm of the
- 20:16Speaker 8: United Nations, it must be doing the Lord's work. And
- 20:20Speaker 8: yet the problem with United Nations now and with its
- 20:23Speaker 8: entities is what it's often been in the case, as
- 20:26Speaker 8: it was in President Reagan's day, that the tilt of
- 20:29Speaker 8: the organization tilts against America, against the Western democracies, because
- 20:35Speaker 8: of the predominance of unfree, undemocratic, and tyrannical countries within
- 20:42Speaker 8: the organization.
- 20:44Speaker 1: And you know, I don't mind.
- 20:46Speaker 8: I want to pretend that the United Nations is the
- 20:49Speaker 8: world's parliament if they want to imagine.
- 20:53Speaker 1: That, that's one thing. But to imagine, as a result
- 20:59Speaker 1: that it is what it says.
- 21:01Speaker 8: It is and that its entities are what they claim
- 21:04Speaker 8: to be is just a grotesque category.
- 21:07Speaker 1: Eerr in Esco.
- 21:10Speaker 8: Like so many organizations UNDRA, you and Human Rights Council.
- 21:14Speaker 8: These are not bodies that represent or further the interests
- 21:19Speaker 8: of the American taxpayer, the American voter, and often.
- 21:22Speaker 1: Work directly against them. So why exactly.
- 21:25Speaker 8: Should the American taxpayer be funding them?
- 21:30Speaker 2: It's a very good question.
- 21:31Speaker 3: It's one I'd be posing to our government right here
- 21:33Speaker 3: in Australia.
- 21:35Speaker 2: Israel and Syria.
- 21:37Speaker 3: We know they're resuming dialogue on security matters in the
- 21:41Speaker 3: wake of deadly sectarian clashes. We're seeing just Douglas horrific
- 21:46Speaker 3: acts of brutality footage that I can't play. The Druis
- 21:51Speaker 3: population being targeted, and this footage is simply too graphic,
- 21:55Speaker 3: too sickening to play.
- 21:57Speaker 2: What can be done.
- 21:59Speaker 3: To help this community, Douglas and other religious minorities in Syria?
- 22:05Speaker 8: You know, it's absolutely appalling what's been going on in
- 22:09Speaker 8: recent plays in Syria. Noticeable as always the people who've
- 22:14Speaker 8: been completely silent on the matter, who obsessed with anything
- 22:19Speaker 8: that Israel does in region and are totally unbothered when
- 22:24Speaker 8: a jihadist or former Jihardist, if you're take him to
- 22:27Speaker 8: his word, are like the new leader of Syria overseas
- 22:32Speaker 8: a country in which is kind of ethnic strife is
- 22:36Speaker 8: routine and commonplace.
- 22:39Speaker 1: The Drews are a very small.
- 22:41Speaker 8: Minority in the region, crossing in the roughly in Lebanon,
- 22:46Speaker 8: Israel Syria, and are very beliegued and massacres like that
- 22:54Speaker 8: in recent days. The only country that has done anything
- 22:58Speaker 8: to actually intervene and try to stop is the government
- 23:02Speaker 8: of Israel, who is doing so partly the behest of
- 23:05Speaker 8: own Drew's population.
- 23:07Speaker 1: The Drews population in Israel.
- 23:09Speaker 8: Include remarkable people, include remarkable heroes serving the army and.
- 23:15Speaker 1: So on.
- 23:15Speaker 8: But Israel decided to actually step in and try to
- 23:18Speaker 8: prevent some of this ethnic cleansing of the Drus of Syria.
- 23:22Speaker 8: The rest of the world is just sort of sitting by,
- 23:25Speaker 8: either not noticing or just talking about it. And it's
- 23:29Speaker 8: very interesting that, isn't it That once again Israel in
- 23:33Speaker 8: the region alone acts against the threat to a minority
- 23:38Speaker 8: and gets no credit for it, no praise to actual fact.
- 23:42Speaker 8: As we saw in an interview this week with a
- 23:44Speaker 8: former head of the six intelligence services in the US
- 23:48Speaker 8: was interviewed by I think Christian amanpuron CNN, don't even
- 23:52Speaker 8: understand the situation in the region, and don't even believe
- 23:56Speaker 8: that Israel acting and the interests of the Drus minority,
- 24:00Speaker 8: and also don't seem to understand who the Drews minority are.
- 24:03Speaker 1: It's a really shocking lack of.
- 24:04Speaker 8: Comprehension at very high levels, and of course that means
- 24:08Speaker 8: that there's also a shocking lack of act.
- 24:12Speaker 2: You're right about that.
- 24:14Speaker 3: Let's actually just have a quick look at that interview
- 24:16Speaker 3: refer to, and this is supposed to be an expert
- 24:19Speaker 3: opining about Israel's motivations in Syria.
- 24:23Speaker 11: I don't actually believe the Israeli line that they are
- 24:25Speaker 11: intervening in southern Syria in order to support the Drews,
- 24:31Speaker 11: as if they have concerns about the Drews.
- 24:33Speaker 1: The Drews are Arabs and Muslims.
- 24:35Speaker 11: They are a part of the network of ethnic groups
- 24:39Speaker 11: and religious groups inside Syria. What Israel is looking for,
- 24:43Speaker 11: I think is a fragmented Syria, one which is we
- 24:46Speaker 11: can divide it.
- 24:47Speaker 3: The former head of MI six and he doesn't know
- 24:51Speaker 3: basic information.
- 24:52Speaker 2: Douglas, like the Drews are not Muslims.
- 24:56Speaker 1: Yeah, that was really shocking, I have to say, really shocking.
- 25:00Speaker 8: There's a sort of presumption people have that figures are
- 25:04Speaker 8: like this, you know, at least know what they're talking about.
- 25:07Speaker 8: And yes, I mean he didn't. The Jruis, among other things,
- 25:10Speaker 8: are not Muslims by any means. And and it's it's
- 25:14Speaker 8: just and that lack of knowledge, I suppose leads to
- 25:18Speaker 8: the follow on thing. He believes that that the Israelis,
- 25:22Speaker 8: who will include Drews in their own army, would not
- 25:26Speaker 8: be acting legitimately in defense of the Jewish, the Drew's minority.
- 25:32Speaker 1: As for the idea that Israel wants.
- 25:35Speaker 8: A fracture of Syria, I mean, this is this is
- 25:38Speaker 8: just pure projection or something like that by the former
- 25:43Speaker 8: head of They don't Israel would like to live. I
- 25:49Speaker 8: assume by beside a peaceful Syria that was well governed,
- 25:54Speaker 8: that had a peace accords with Israel, part of the
- 25:57Speaker 8: Abraham Accords, and so are normalization they do? What a
- 26:00Speaker 8: endless war zone next door to them? Who would we
- 26:04Speaker 8: We've seen what that means in recent years. We've seen
- 26:07Speaker 8: what it means foreign proxies in Syria firing.
- 26:10Speaker 1: Into Israel and so on.
- 26:12Speaker 8: Of course, No, I mean there's just you know, I've
- 26:16Speaker 8: said to you often Rita. You know there's this feeding
- 26:18Speaker 8: in recent years that the adults have left the room,
- 26:21Speaker 8: and that's still true. It is also the case many
- 26:24Speaker 8: of the people who are meant to be adults who
- 26:25Speaker 8: are still.
- 26:26Speaker 1: In the room turn out not to be fit for purpose.
- 26:31Speaker 2: Douglas Murray, thank you so much for your time tonight.
- 26:35Speaker 1: It's a great pleasure.
- 26:36Speaker 2: Still to come.
- 26:37Speaker 3: Lefties Losing It plus the latest from the US, including
- 26:41Speaker 3: details about Hillary Clinton's psycho emotional problems.
- 26:45Speaker 2: Mi Horowitz has the details.
- 26:58Speaker 3: Welcome back, and it's time for a Lefties Losing It
- 27:01Speaker 3: and Hollywood is struggling.
- 27:03Speaker 2: To deal with reality.
- 27:05Speaker 3: The widows, with their wolfed moral compass, are still pining
- 27:09Speaker 3: for Kamala. Here is Jeff Daniel's star of Dumb and
- 27:12Speaker 3: Dumber being the dumbest.
- 27:15Speaker 12: I still think about Kamala and how I think she
- 27:20Speaker 12: would have been a good choice. I don't care what
- 27:22Speaker 12: they say, because she would have done what Lincoln did.
- 27:26Speaker 12: Liz Cheney would have been Secretary of State. Tea Yeah,
- 27:31Speaker 12: Teama rivals. Doris Kerns a good one, wrote the book
- 27:34Speaker 12: about it. Less what Lincoln did surrounded himself with the
- 27:37Speaker 12: people who would disagree with him, not the people who would,
- 27:41Speaker 12: you know, take a knee and go Yeah, more tariffs, sir, more,
- 27:45Speaker 12: it's the madness of King George and if and just
- 27:50Speaker 12: the deterioration of the Republican Party. I mean, look, I'm
- 27:54Speaker 12: just an actor. What do I know?
- 27:56Speaker 2: Not much, Jeff, you don't know much.
- 27:58Speaker 3: And did you say the sympathet ig nods from MSNBC
- 28:01Speaker 3: anchor Nicole Wallace's Daniel spewed a bunch of nonsense. And
- 28:05Speaker 3: guess what, it gets crazy out because it seems to
- 28:08Speaker 3: think the radical left taking over the country is what
- 28:11Speaker 3: Jesus would want.
- 28:13Speaker 12: The new America that is diverse and treats everyone with
- 28:17Speaker 12: equality and respect and dignity, you know, kind of like
- 28:21Speaker 12: Jesus did.
- 28:22Speaker 2: Yep, matter than a cut snake.
- 28:24Speaker 3: And yes, Nicole is still nodding along like a bobblehead.
- 28:28Speaker 3: Let's check on another Trump deranged actor, Alec Baldwin.
- 28:32Speaker 2: I wonder how he's coping with life these days.
- 28:36Speaker 12: Seemed to me, seemed to me, seems to me, seemed
- 28:40Speaker 12: to me, seemed to me, seem to.
- 28:43Speaker 1: Me, Mummy, seem to me. He seemed to me, Mommy think.
- 28:49Speaker 2: Okay.
- 28:50Speaker 10: Now.
- 28:50Speaker 3: Among the many startling revelations of nefarious activity is revealed
- 28:54Speaker 3: by the release of freshly declassified documents by the Director
- 28:58Speaker 3: of National Intelligence.
- 29:00Speaker 2: Is this little jem?
- 29:01Speaker 3: Turns out the Russians knew that there was something seriously
- 29:05Speaker 3: wrong with Hillary Clinton, and that's why they preferred her
- 29:08Speaker 3: to win, not Trump, and the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service
- 29:13Speaker 3: did not release the information that alleged Clinton was suffering
- 29:16Speaker 3: from intensified psycho emotional problems, including uncontrolled fits of anger, aggression,
- 29:24Speaker 3: and cheerfulness.
- 29:25Speaker 2: If only there was a sign.
- 29:30Speaker 7: Did you talk about mass presidential possibilities of Senator Warren?
- 29:36Speaker 2: Now, having said all this, why aren't I fifty points ahead?
- 29:39Speaker 11: You might ask?
- 29:40Speaker 3: And apparently Hillary was on heavy tranquilizers too, if only
- 29:46Speaker 3: there was any evidence of that, perhaps something like what
- 29:50Speaker 3: we're looking at right now. Now remember this miscreant throwing
- 29:56Speaker 3: rocks of the vehicles of federal offices as well. There
- 29:59Speaker 3: is a happy development in this story.
- 30:12Speaker 1: You're an arrest for assaulting fetal agents.
- 30:15Speaker 3: Joining me now is documentary filmmaker and commentator Army Horowitz.
- 30:19Speaker 2: Army Alpedio Rayana. I think I've pronounced his right name right.
- 30:24Speaker 3: He fled to Mexico in June after allegedly injuring a
- 30:28Speaker 3: federal officer and damaging vehicles and he was arrested at
- 30:31Speaker 3: the US Mexico border earlier today.
- 30:37Speaker 7: Yeah, frankly, I wish he stayed in Mexico, but a
- 30:40Speaker 7: second best is having him rode in jail, despite the
- 30:43Speaker 7: fact that the costs that's probably thirty thousand dollars a
- 30:46Speaker 7: year to incarcerate this animal. Look with as you know,
- 30:50Speaker 7: I was at the AA riots. I covered the Elia riots,
- 30:53Speaker 7: and more importantly, we also have the media covered these riots.
- 30:58Speaker 7: Right He's are a peaceful demonstration. They simply want due process. Bologney, Okay,
- 31:04Speaker 7: I was there. I asked the question. Not a single
- 31:07Speaker 7: person there would condemn the violence that went on, why
- 31:11Speaker 7: being they support it. The violence is not a bug,
- 31:14Speaker 7: it's a feature. Rita. We have to see that this
- 31:17Speaker 7: guy is a hero to the left because the left
- 31:21Speaker 7: has always and continue to lionize violence. Lewis Mangionesi more
- 31:27Speaker 7: recent example of that, and Rita, I also want to
- 31:30Speaker 7: say that I was I was looking prior coming on
- 31:32Speaker 7: and seeing who covered his arrest. Let me tell you see,
- 31:35Speaker 7: An End didn't cover it, MSNBC didn't cover it. The
- 31:38Speaker 7: New York Times did ut covers arrest. Why because it
- 31:40Speaker 7: highlights the fact that there were violent people at these
- 31:44Speaker 7: quote unquote protests and they didn't want to highlight that
- 31:47Speaker 7: because they were trying to sweep that all under the rug.
- 31:50Speaker 7: I'm glads in jail. I hope you wrought there for years. Now.
- 31:55Speaker 3: More good news than New York Post reports. The Trump
- 31:58Speaker 3: administration has won unprecedented concessions from Columbia University in a
- 32:04Speaker 3: sweeping settlement with the Ivy League. University paying more than
- 32:07Speaker 3: two hundred and twenty million and also pledging to reverse
- 32:11Speaker 3: racially discriminatory practice. Columbia is also pledging to resolve civil
- 32:16Speaker 3: rights violations against Jewish students. We've seen all the scenes
- 32:21Speaker 3: of violence on university campuses, including at Columbia.
- 32:42Speaker 2: Army.
- 32:43Speaker 3: This is huge, two hundred and twenty million dollars settlement.
- 32:47Speaker 3: It's going to send a strong message.
- 32:50Speaker 13: Yeah.
- 32:51Speaker 7: Look, it's not nothing, that's for sure. Columb University has
- 32:56Speaker 7: a nearly fifteen billion dollar endowment, which is larger than
- 33:00Speaker 7: in one hundred and twenty countries foreign currency reserves. Will
- 33:04Speaker 7: it break them no? We will it make them think
- 33:07Speaker 7: twice before they allow Jews to be harassed on campus. Yeah,
- 33:11Speaker 7: I think it will. Look these people want the Jewish
- 33:13Speaker 7: Studies department to be part of the history department. That's
- 33:16Speaker 7: their goal. Let's make no mistake about it. And what
- 33:19Speaker 7: will change their behavior? Reader, it's money, Okay, That's what
- 33:22Speaker 7: the world goes round. And that's what makes these universities
- 33:26Speaker 7: and their fat cat administrators roll in the money and
- 33:29Speaker 7: allow them to hire all the DA people DEI people
- 33:32Speaker 7: that they have this money. Does the money does change behavior?
- 33:37Speaker 7: Look Columbia University, their donations are down thirty percent over
- 33:42Speaker 7: the last two years. And by the way, if a
- 33:45Speaker 7: single Jewish donor gives any of these universities acting the
- 33:50Speaker 7: way they are a single dollar, they should be ashamed
- 33:53Speaker 7: of themselves. Look, I think it will have an effect.
- 33:56Speaker 7: They're when sweeping changes at the Trump administration forced them
- 34:00Speaker 7: to do, not just the money they had to force
- 34:03Speaker 7: the change. They're hiring practices, the way they discipline people.
- 34:09Speaker 7: Will it stick. I don't know. Time will tell, but
- 34:12Speaker 7: I'll tell you this, it's a massive win for the president.
- 34:14Speaker 7: I think it's a massive win for decorum on university
- 34:17Speaker 7: campuses across the country.
- 34:21Speaker 3: Sticking with that, more huge news, the Director of National
- 34:24Speaker 3: Intelligence Tulsea Gabbard has referred Barack Obama to the FBI
- 34:28Speaker 3: and DOJ for prosecution any of this.
- 34:32Speaker 10: New information implicates former President Obama in criminal behavior. We
- 34:38Speaker 10: have referred and will continue to refer all of these
- 34:40Speaker 10: documents to the Department of Justice and the FBI to
- 34:44Speaker 10: investigate the criminal implications of.
- 34:46Speaker 1: This For even the evidence of Obama.
- 34:48Speaker 10: Correct The evidence that we have found and that we
- 34:51Speaker 10: have released directly point to President Obama leading the manufacturing
- 34:58Speaker 10: of this intelligence assessment. Are multiple pieces of evidence and
- 35:01Speaker 10: intelligence that confirm that fact.
- 35:04Speaker 3: Ami am I overcooking things that she's referring it. She says,
- 35:09Speaker 3: the evidence is clear. Are we going to see a
- 35:12Speaker 3: former president? We've seen it already, I guess with Donald Trump.
- 35:16Speaker 3: But are we going to see a former president under investigation,
- 35:19Speaker 3: facing charges and proving that no one is above the law.
- 35:24Speaker 7: Look, we are two things gonna be true at once. Right,
- 35:27Speaker 7: There's no question that the Obama administration was looking for
- 35:31Speaker 7: a rationale to tie Trump with the Russians, obviously spectacularly
- 35:36Speaker 7: failed at that. And there's no question that they had
- 35:41Speaker 7: illegal PHISO wards that were tapping people illegally. There's no
- 35:45Speaker 7: question that they use The fake Steele dossier is the
- 35:49Speaker 7: basis for this behavior. Having said that not a fan
- 35:53Speaker 7: of this. I got to be honest. Look, it comes across,
- 35:57Speaker 7: first of all, is petulant. So these things tend to
- 36:01Speaker 7: boomerang around to back to you. I mean, just at
- 36:04Speaker 7: the Democrats. Democrats were trying to file charges, specious trust
- 36:10Speaker 7: charges against against Trump, and now it's now we're doing
- 36:13Speaker 7: it to them. So I don't think this is this
- 36:16Speaker 7: is helpful for our public, to be totally honest and
- 36:19Speaker 7: whether or not you've been facing charges. Look, Trump, the
- 36:23Speaker 7: United States Supreme Court decision last year gave wide ranging
- 36:28Speaker 7: immunity to the president to president, not just President Trump,
- 36:31Speaker 7: but all presidents. So no, I actually don't think any
- 36:34Speaker 7: charges will be filed. I don't think you will be prosecuted.
- 36:37Speaker 7: A lot of that's because of the Supreme Court decision
- 36:40Speaker 7: of Trump the United States.
- 36:44Speaker 3: I don't think presidential immunity extends to manufacturing a plot
- 36:50Speaker 3: to undermine the term of your successor, because that's precisely
- 36:55Speaker 3: what happened. You said they failed at it. I'd argue
- 36:57Speaker 3: that were very successful. They were talking about Russian collusion
- 37:02Speaker 3: for three four years. It completely undermined Donald Trump's first term.
- 37:07Speaker 3: And there's a great many Americans to this day, many
- 37:10Speaker 3: Democrats who believe Russia interfered with US elections, that they
- 37:15Speaker 3: hacked the elections.
- 37:16Speaker 2: That's what we were.
- 37:17Speaker 3: Told, and it was entirely manufactured the evidence they had
- 37:22Speaker 3: said otherwise. And in that short period between Trump winning
- 37:26Speaker 3: and his inauguration, they cooked up this plot army.
- 37:29Speaker 2: I mean, how can that.
- 37:30Speaker 3: Go without consequences? How can this bit uncovered exposed? It's
- 37:35Speaker 3: good to have transparency, but surely the next step is
- 37:39Speaker 3: people need to pay a price for this.
- 37:42Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 37:42Speaker 7: Look, I say it fell because A Trump won the election,
- 37:45Speaker 7: and b it's been exposed as a hoax. Right, Russi
- 37:48Speaker 7: Russi Russia was a hoax. No, we should allow us
- 37:52Speaker 7: to go unpunished, and there are a lot of people
- 37:55Speaker 7: who I think should and will be punished for it.
- 37:57Speaker 7: I'm just saying that, from what I read and understand, Trump,
- 38:02Speaker 7: the US gives wide ranging community and this may in
- 38:05Speaker 7: fact fall within that as well.
- 38:09Speaker 3: See I disagree there, but we'll move on. We'll discuss
- 38:12Speaker 3: this more, I'm sure in the coming ways weeks.
- 38:15Speaker 2: I'm interested in your reasoning for this data.
- 38:19Speaker 3: We're seeing a mass exodus from states like California, close
- 38:25Speaker 3: to seven hundred thousand people have left California since twenty
- 38:29Speaker 3: twenty three. They've moved to states like Florida, Tennessee, Texas,
- 38:34Speaker 3: Army and some of the reasons, obviously are economic, lower taxes,
- 38:40Speaker 3: perhaps less crime, but other other underlying issues that we're
- 38:46Speaker 3: not detecting here. Why do you think the reason for
- 38:49Speaker 3: this is same phenomenon is happening from New York people
- 38:54Speaker 3: leaving and going to those red states.
- 38:57Speaker 7: Look when Mo'm Donni and nusso say, hey, where are
- 39:01Speaker 7: they gonna go?
- 39:03Speaker 1: Uh?
- 39:03Speaker 7: Yeah, bro, we see where they're gonna go. They're gonna
- 39:06Speaker 7: go to Texas, They're gonna go to Tennessee, They're gonna
- 39:08Speaker 7: go to Florida, and they have obviously, look an advantage
- 39:12Speaker 7: of there's a lot of advantage having money. Money is
- 39:13Speaker 7: a good thing, right. One of the advantages it gives
- 39:16Speaker 7: you mobility. You could pick up and you can leave.
- 39:18Speaker 7: You're not tied to one place. Look, I'll tell you
- 39:20Speaker 7: a quick story about why people are leaving. Like I
- 39:22Speaker 7: own a property in Los Angeles. I'm a former California
- 39:25Speaker 7: Los Angelino and I want the entire push for the
- 39:30Speaker 7: city is for higher density and housing. They want to
- 39:33Speaker 7: take single family homes and they want to convert them
- 39:36Speaker 7: to apartment building. So of course I want to do that.
- 39:38Speaker 7: It's more profitable for me to tear down the single
- 39:40Speaker 7: family home that I rent and build an apartment building.
- 39:44Speaker 7: But they make it so difficult for me to do
- 39:48Speaker 7: what they want me to do because they want me
- 39:50Speaker 7: to create higher density, but they don't want to make money.
- 39:53Speaker 7: They want to put me through the ringer. They want
- 39:55Speaker 7: to have put me through two years of regulations and
- 39:58Speaker 7: expense to do it. And guess what, I'm not doing
- 40:00Speaker 7: it because it's not worth it.
- 40:05Speaker 2: Well, that is the problem.
- 40:06Speaker 3: I mean, it's also a problem of a one party state,
- 40:10Speaker 3: isn't it. The Democrats just rule supreme across California, across
- 40:15Speaker 3: the major cities, and their policies are radical, and all
- 40:20Speaker 3: they've done, despite supposedly pushing for a greater equity, is to.
- 40:25Speaker 2: Have a greater gap between the rich and poor.
- 40:28Speaker 3: And it's not I think just the uber ritual leaving
- 40:31Speaker 3: states like California.
- 40:32Speaker 2: In New York Army, I think a lot of people.
- 40:35Speaker 3: Struggling to live, struggling to pay their bills, are also
- 40:40Speaker 3: looking elsewhere for a better life.
- 40:43Speaker 7: No question about it. Why would you want. If you look,
- 40:46Speaker 7: if you're trying to get by and your of course
- 40:48Speaker 7: from the middle class, right, why are you going to
- 40:51Speaker 7: How could you afford or want to spend five thousand
- 40:55Speaker 7: dollars a month in rent in Los Angeles, right, and
- 40:58Speaker 7: not even like in a great place Los Angeles, when
- 41:00Speaker 7: you can move to Texas in Houston and Dallas and
- 41:03Speaker 7: literally pay two thousand dollars a month for the same place,
- 41:06Speaker 7: it doesn't make sense. And of course, yes, you don't
- 41:08Speaker 7: have to be rich to have mobility. You just need
- 41:11Speaker 7: an ability to find a job somewhere else. And thank
- 41:13Speaker 7: god this country allows for people to move around they
- 41:17Speaker 7: want to, and they're find themselves saving money and having
- 41:20Speaker 7: a better quality of life, not just economically, but for
- 41:23Speaker 7: quality of life in terms of crime, right and in
- 41:25Speaker 7: terms of dirt and homelessness. All they're making that move
- 41:29Speaker 7: because life is just easier and better in alive these
- 41:33Speaker 7: red states.
- 41:36Speaker 2: Absolutely.
- 41:37Speaker 3: And you know what, as long as they don't take
- 41:40Speaker 3: their voting habits with them to these red states, it's
- 41:43Speaker 3: all good.
- 41:44Speaker 2: Let them go where they want to go. Am harwaits,
- 41:47Speaker 2: thank you so much for your time tonight.
- 41:49Speaker 7: Where's your pleasure still to come?
- 41:52Speaker 8: Why?
- 41:52Speaker 3: Netflix? Wants to part ways with Harry and Meghan.
- 41:55Speaker 2: Kinsey Skyfield is up next welcome back.
- 42:08Speaker 3: Joining me now is celebrity and royal commentator Kinsey Schofield. Kinsey,
- 42:13Speaker 3: Meghan and Harry's one hundred million dollar Netflix deal is
- 42:16Speaker 3: set to expire in September, and the deal won't be
- 42:20Speaker 3: renewed by the streaming giant.
- 42:22Speaker 2: Tell me more.
- 42:24Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 42:24Speaker 13: Netflix has been quick to shoot down Sussex related gossip
- 42:27Speaker 13: for the past, so I think it speaks volumes that
- 42:29Speaker 13: they haven't denied this story. A source said that Prince
- 42:33Speaker 13: Harry and Meghan Markle just aren't as influential are valuable
- 42:36Speaker 13: as they used to be, and Netflix got their pound
- 42:39Speaker 13: of flesh through the original docu series where the Sussexes
- 42:42Speaker 13: tear apart the British royal family, but everything since that
- 42:45Speaker 13: has been an analytical failure and Netflix is expected to
- 42:49Speaker 13: release With Love Meghan season two, which was recorded back
- 42:53Speaker 13: to back with season one, and quietly allow the contract
- 42:56Speaker 13: to expire. No hard feelings and open to working with
- 42:59Speaker 13: the couple again if they can provide a home run concept,
- 43:02Speaker 13: but they won't be on the payroll anymore.
- 43:08Speaker 2: Now.
- 43:08Speaker 3: French President Emmanuel mccron and his wife Brigitte, suing Candace
- 43:14Speaker 3: Owens for claiming that Brigitte is sacredly a man who
- 43:18Speaker 3: transitioned or identifies as a woman.
- 43:21Speaker 2: Kinsey, this story is wild.
- 43:24Speaker 1: It is.
- 43:25Speaker 13: Candace appears unfazed by the situation, with a source telling
- 43:28Speaker 13: TMZ she has no intention of staying silent. In fact,
- 43:32Speaker 13: she's reportedly directly invited the Macrons to challenge her statements.
- 43:36Speaker 6: On her podcast You Know. As background.
- 43:39Speaker 13: Bridget mccron filed a defamation suit in twenty twenty one
- 43:42Speaker 13: against two influencers who claimed she was born male. Although
- 43:46Speaker 13: the court initially ruled in her favor and ordered compensation,
- 43:50Speaker 13: the Paris Court of Appeals overturned that decision this month.
- 43:53Speaker 13: It's evidence is one of the Macrons. It remains deeply
- 44:00Speaker 13: emotional when it comes to them. They remain deeply emotional
- 44:02Speaker 13: about it, and they're invested in this.
- 44:05Speaker 3: I think discovery is going to be fascinating and just
- 44:10Speaker 3: the entire relationship between Brigitte and Emmanuel, never mind the
- 44:16Speaker 3: genders to me, is highly questionable because she met him
- 44:20Speaker 3: when she was I think thirty nine. She was a teacher,
- 44:23Speaker 3: He was a fifteen year old student.
- 44:26Speaker 2: Now that in itself is just.
- 44:29Speaker 3: Yeah, troubling, but it's kind of never really talked about
- 44:34Speaker 3: in any sort of critical way. Let's talk about Ellen DeGeneres.
- 44:38Speaker 3: She fled America she couldn't live in Trump's America, but
- 44:42Speaker 3: she's now hinting that she'd like to revive her TV
- 44:45Speaker 3: career because she's bored. She's living in England with wife
- 44:50Speaker 3: Portia de Rossi and Kinsey. They want something to do.
- 44:54Speaker 3: I can understand why they'd be bored.
- 44:56Speaker 6: Yes, I love this headline.
- 44:58Speaker 13: Ellen DeGeneres is planting a career back after getting a
- 45:01Speaker 13: bit bored watching chickens in England. As we now know,
- 45:05Speaker 13: it turned out that be kind was just a catchphrase,
- 45:08Speaker 13: not a character trait for Ellen, and Hollywood took note.
- 45:11Speaker 13: I don't feel sorry for her, but I feel kind
- 45:13Speaker 13: of sorry for the chickens.
- 45:17Speaker 2: You feel sorry for the chickens.
- 45:18Speaker 3: I'm sure those chickens are very pamper, you would hope.
- 45:21Speaker 3: So now Donald Trump is predicting that Jimmy Kimmel and
- 45:26Speaker 3: Jimmy Fallon are going to be the next lot of
- 45:30Speaker 3: late night TV hosts who get the boot, following the
- 45:32Speaker 3: acting of Stephen Colbert's The Late show Kinsey.
- 45:36Speaker 2: He really is having fun with this.
- 45:38Speaker 3: I've got to say, the unhinged reaction to Colbert Sacking,
- 45:42Speaker 3: the meltdown, the conspiracy theories, it's the funniest thing that
- 45:46Speaker 3: that show has produced in well many years.
- 45:51Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 45:51Speaker 13: I will never forgive Stephen for his behavior towards Catherine,
- 45:54Speaker 13: Princess of Wales and the weeks leading up to her
- 45:57Speaker 13: cancer diagnosis.
- 45:58Speaker 6: He made cruel jokes about.
- 46:00Speaker 13: Her and her and her family at their expense while
- 46:03Speaker 13: gleefully hosting Prince Harry on his show Mess with Kate,
- 46:07Speaker 13: Meet Your Fate. I know it's about something bigger than that,
- 46:10Speaker 13: but at the end of the day, I would like
- 46:12Speaker 13: to just call it getting markeled. It seems like everyone
- 46:15Speaker 13: that has sided with Harry and Meghan have felt spectacularly
- 46:18Speaker 13: or had drama come their way. Hello to Tyer, Harry,
- 46:21Speaker 13: James Gordon, Joe Biden. The list is pretty long yet lonely,
- 46:27Speaker 13: and I think that these are all people that chose
- 46:29Speaker 13: to side with the wrong side of history and paid
- 46:32Speaker 13: for it.
- 46:34Speaker 3: You make a good point there, and even Oprah you
- 46:37Speaker 3: could add to that list. Of course, she's still fabulously rich,
- 46:41Speaker 3: but her public standing she used to be universally universally loved,
- 46:46Speaker 3: and now the negative reaction to her is so strong.
- 46:50Speaker 3: And I'm not saying it's all down to that Harry
- 46:52Speaker 3: and Megan nonsense that she was involved in, but it
- 46:55Speaker 3: didn't help. Now, doctor Salvador Plencia has pled guilty to
- 47:00Speaker 3: four counts of distributing ketamine in connection with friend star
- 47:05Speaker 3: Matthew Perry's death.
- 47:07Speaker 2: Kinsey, what more can you tell me about this?
- 47:09Speaker 7: Well?
- 47:10Speaker 13: He now faces up to ten years per count in
- 47:12Speaker 13: federal prison when he's sentenced on December third, and while
- 47:15Speaker 13: he remains free on bond for now, his attorney says
- 47:18Speaker 13: he plans to voluntarily surrender his medical license within the
- 47:21Speaker 13: next thirty to forty five days. According to federal prosecutors,
- 47:25Speaker 13: this is the same doctor who allegedly marked Matthew Perry
- 47:29Speaker 13: in a message, writing I wonder how much this moron
- 47:31Speaker 13: will pay for the ketamine?
- 47:33Speaker 6: So goodbye? I mean good. This guy's a piece of work.
- 47:39Speaker 2: Oh yes. Now.
- 47:40Speaker 3: Singer Michael Tate from Christian bands The Newsboys and DC
- 47:45Speaker 3: Talk has sent the Christian music industry into a tow spin,
- 47:50Speaker 3: with growing numbers of sexual abuse allegations being leveled again.
- 47:53Speaker 2: Sim Kinsey I've.
- 47:54Speaker 3: Got to say, I've never heard of this dude until today,
- 47:57Speaker 3: but apparently it's a big star Rita.
- 48:00Speaker 13: I have a picture of him in my kitchen that
- 48:02Speaker 13: I have to take down now. I'm like thirteen years
- 48:05Speaker 13: old and my eyeballs are popping out of my head.
- 48:07Speaker 13: I'm so excited to meet him. I've been to over
- 48:09Speaker 13: twenty of his concerts. He has over fifty yes, over
- 48:14Speaker 13: fifty top top hits, multiple Grammys. You know, was campaigned
- 48:20Speaker 13: throughout Donald Trump's last election, along with Trump praying for
- 48:24Speaker 13: him on the stage. This guy is so high profile
- 48:27Speaker 13: in the Christian music scene. This is the new me too,
- 48:30Speaker 13: this is the new Diddy. All of these accusations are
- 48:33Speaker 13: absolutely devastating to his fan base. And yeah, I mean,
- 48:38Speaker 13: I'm shocked that this story hasn't blown up more considering
- 48:42Speaker 13: what a huge star he is in this scene.
- 48:47Speaker 2: Interesting.
- 48:47Speaker 3: I've got to say, I did not know about him
- 48:50Speaker 3: until today, until this story came up. Before You Go
- 48:54Speaker 3: content creator Andrew Callahan has claimed that George Cloudy played
- 48:58Speaker 3: a huge part in Jack Black breaking up his band
- 49:02Speaker 3: Tenacious D after the guitarist Cayl Gas made a shocking
- 49:07Speaker 3: on stage wish in Australia. It was in fact in Sydney,
- 49:11Speaker 3: saying I hope that I miss Trump next time after
- 49:15Speaker 3: that assassination attempt. Tell me about this. This came out
- 49:19Speaker 3: during that Hunter Biden interview.
- 49:21Speaker 13: Yeah, this is what I was going to say, this
- 49:23Speaker 13: allegation service during the f bomb laced Hunter Biden interview
- 49:27Speaker 13: that did the unemployed former drug addict no favors. At
- 49:30Speaker 13: one point, Hunter hypothetically discusses how he would handle things
- 49:34Speaker 13: if he were president, to.
- 49:35Speaker 6: Which I say, God help us all.
- 49:37Speaker 13: Look, I don't know what edibles and mood enhancers were
- 49:40Speaker 13: served at the craft service table for this particular interview,
- 49:43Speaker 13: but it was messy and not well researched, so I
- 49:46Speaker 13: give it little to no credibility or validity.
- 49:48Speaker 6: I know we don't like George Clooney.
- 49:51Speaker 13: But I'm also like, does he really have any power
- 49:54Speaker 13: over tenacious D?
- 49:56Speaker 7: Yeah?
- 49:57Speaker 3: I get you there, And it was the interviewer who
- 50:00Speaker 3: who told that story, so it wasn't even Hunter.
- 50:03Speaker 2: But yeah, that was a wild interview.
- 50:04Speaker 3: Three hours Kinsiscofield, thank you so much for your time,
- 50:08Speaker 3: and that's all the time we have tonight. I'll see
- 50:11Speaker 3: you tomorrow night at nine pm. For lefties losing it up. Next,
- 50:15Speaker 3: it's Newsnight,
