Speaker 1: On Scone Wilds Australia. This is the Reader Panalty Show.
0:08
Speaker 2: Good evening and welcome to the readA Panety Show. Coming
0:11
Speaker 2: up tonight, the collapse in private sector job creation with
0:15
Speaker 2: more than eighty percent of all jobs created over the
0:17
Speaker 2: past two years. Ben government funded Dan Wild will be
0:22
Speaker 2: here to discuss the day's top headlines. An unedifying shouting
0:26
Speaker 2: match between two local government counselors leads to accusations of
0:31
Speaker 2: misogyny and bullying. Will bring you that astonishing footage of
0:35
Speaker 2: the Great Josh Hammer, with the latest from the US,
0:38
Speaker 2: including conjecture that some big names may be facing charges
0:43
Speaker 2: of perjury. And later in the hour, kinsisco Field on
0:47
Speaker 2: why popstar Lizzo has weighed in on the Sydney Sweeney
0:51
Speaker 2: funeral and left is losing It is full of Kamala
0:55
Speaker 2: and her cackling.
0:57
Speaker 3: That's a little bit more secure.
1:02
Speaker 2: Now, if you don't live in Victoria, listen up because
1:05
Speaker 2: what happens in Victoria soon happens in other labor states.
1:09
Speaker 2: And right now, the Allen government is set to pass
1:12
Speaker 2: laws to make working from.
1:14
Speaker 4: Home a legal right in Victoria.
1:17
Speaker 2: Other than new legislation, both public and private sector employees
1:20
Speaker 2: in Victoria will be entitled to work from home for
1:23
Speaker 2: at least two days per week, where possible. The premiere
1:27
Speaker 2: posted this video to social media sprooking these plans.
1:32
Speaker 5: I work from home two days a week, work from
1:33
Speaker 5: home four days a week, work from home two.
1:35
Speaker 6: Days a week.
1:36
Speaker 1: I like that.
1:37
Speaker 6: I don't feel like I need to choose between being
1:39
Speaker 6: either a full time mum or a full time worker.
1:41
Speaker 4: I can do both.
1:43
Speaker 7: Just the flexibility in league it means that I don't
1:45
Speaker 7: have to travel over an hour into my office.
1:48
Speaker 1: I have to generally arthritis and halt my body.
1:50
Speaker 2: Being in a very comfortable place where I don't have to.
1:54
Speaker 8: Commune in the cold to and from means that, you know,
1:58
Speaker 8: I'm not limping every day.
2:01
Speaker 2: Joining me now for more on this is Deputy executive
2:04
Speaker 2: director at the Institute of Public Affairs, Dan Wild. Dan,
2:08
Speaker 2: this may be a politically astute move. I think it's
2:12
Speaker 2: diabolically reckless, economically reckless, but I can see why they
2:17
Speaker 2: think it could clinch them the next election.
2:22
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's right, reader, I agree with you. It's probably
2:25
Speaker 5: going to be fairly popular with segments of the community. Clearly,
2:28
Speaker 5: Justinto Allen has studied the federal election and seeing that
2:31
Speaker 5: the work from home policy of the Coalition was incredibly unpopular.
2:36
Speaker 5: Although that policy was targeted notionally at Canberra based public servants,
2:40
Speaker 5: the community had the understanding that that was going to
2:43
Speaker 5: be extended to others in the private sector as well. Look,
2:47
Speaker 5: the issue here is that we've got to understand that
2:50
Speaker 5: working from home is going to be a reality of
2:52
Speaker 5: the modern workplace post COVID in some way, shape or form,
2:56
Speaker 5: and it's important that policymakers get the balance right. Allusion
3:00
Speaker 5: to this is not going to be a one size
3:02
Speaker 5: fits all mandate because that's unlikely to work in the
3:05
Speaker 5: long term. The first port of call is for employees
3:09
Speaker 5: to figure it out with their own bosses about what
3:11
Speaker 5: can work for them and their team. I benefit, for example,
3:13
Speaker 5: from flexible working arrangements and working from home part of the.
3:16
Speaker 1: Time, and I'm.
3:17
Speaker 5: Grateful for that and i appreciate that, but it doesn't
3:19
Speaker 5: necessarily work for everybody. But the politics also here Rita
3:24
Speaker 5: is pretty simple. That you know, Victoria is in a
3:27
Speaker 5: state of disaster, whether it's the government pushing a treaty,
3:31
Speaker 5: whether it's flag burning, burning of the Australian flag taking
3:34
Speaker 5: place under into Allen's watch whether it's the debt and
3:37
Speaker 5: deficit that's growing by the day. So this is a
3:39
Speaker 5: distraction from all of those issues. But you know, I think,
3:42
Speaker 5: like you say, it probably will work politically, at least
3:44
Speaker 5: in the short term.
3:45
Speaker 2: Well, multiple legal experts have come out to say that
3:50
Speaker 2: this move marks a state's biggest incursion into federal workplace
3:55
Speaker 2: regulation in decades.
3:57
Speaker 4: And it's highly unlikely to be in force.
4:00
Speaker 2: They've labeled the Allen government's asserted power to clearly establish
4:05
Speaker 2: a two day work from home as an illusion.
4:09
Speaker 4: Dan, what do you think about that?
4:10
Speaker 2: Is this something that will stop the Allen government or
4:14
Speaker 2: will they put a bit of pressure on the federal
4:17
Speaker 2: government to help them implement these laws.
4:19
Speaker 4: If legally they're going to have some troubles.
4:25
Speaker 5: Well it won't stop them, and voters won't discern between
4:28
Speaker 5: those sort of legal arguments. Look, I'll just make a
4:31
Speaker 5: point here about big business that's complaining about this. I mean,
4:34
Speaker 5: don't forget the whole work from home thing happened during
4:36
Speaker 5: COVID and big businesses were among the loudest cheerleaders of lockdowns.
4:40
Speaker 5: I mean they allowed themselves to become arms of the
4:42
Speaker 5: government to enforce lockdowns. Enforce vaccine mandates, which meant that
4:46
Speaker 5: even if you wanted to come into the office, you
4:48
Speaker 5: weren't allowed to. So you know, this is an example
4:51
Speaker 5: of how big business at the end of the road
4:52
Speaker 5: are complaining about it. They're complaining about energy bills as well.
4:55
Speaker 5: For example, Well, you're a cheerleader of net zero as well,
4:57
Speaker 5: which is causing the energy bills to go up. We
5:00
Speaker 5: talk about this all the time. This is why you
5:02
Speaker 5: have to stick to your value to make a strong argument.
5:04
Speaker 5: Don't complain now that people are working from home when
5:07
Speaker 5: you were one of the parties involved that actually caused
5:10
Speaker 5: this to start with.
5:11
Speaker 4: That is such a good point.
5:13
Speaker 2: And yeah, they were very happy to do that during
5:15
Speaker 2: COVID when small businesses were the ones really being decimated
5:20
Speaker 2: and big businesses were able to carry on in a
5:24
Speaker 2: lot of cases.
5:24
Speaker 4: And now not.
5:26
Speaker 2: Too long after they're feeling some of the consequences of that.
5:29
Speaker 4: Now to the federal government's.
5:31
Speaker 2: Net zero push, and the Productivity Commission has called for
5:35
Speaker 2: greater government intervention, greater regulation and incentives, as well as
5:40
Speaker 2: carbon pricing also known as a carbon tax, in order
5:44
Speaker 2: for labor to be able to hit its climate targets.
5:47
Speaker 2: Dan Is that what we need greater market manipulation and
5:51
Speaker 2: even more taxpayer fund than subsidies.
5:56
Speaker 4: Well, of course it's not.
5:57
Speaker 5: I mean, firstly, this is an example of how a
6:00
Speaker 5: once august and credible economic institution, the Productivity Commission, has
6:04
Speaker 5: become an arm of government and is woken and out
6:06
Speaker 5: of touch and it's not actually applying any economics to
6:08
Speaker 5: these issues at all. It's becoming a cheerleader of government policy.
6:13
Speaker 8: You know.
6:13
Speaker 5: Secondly, net zero, among all the problems that we've talked about,
6:17
Speaker 5: the economics, the social costs, the implications for our national security,
6:21
Speaker 5: it is also completely and totally unachievable. And what that
6:25
Speaker 5: means is that governments will continue to pursue more and
6:28
Speaker 5: more extreme measures to try to get there. And so
6:31
Speaker 5: whether it's a carbon tax, whether it's the forced acquisition
6:35
Speaker 5: of farmers land, ramming through projects that are unpopular and unviable,
6:40
Speaker 5: this is going to accelerate over the coming years because
6:42
Speaker 5: the government is holding on to this pipe dream of
6:45
Speaker 5: net zero that is becoming more costly and less achievable
6:49
Speaker 5: by the day, and we should expect to see more
6:51
Speaker 5: of this. And of course it's going to be mainstream
6:53
Speaker 5: Australians that are going to pay the price for it.
6:56
Speaker 2: And we've got Australian Industry Group analysis showing that the
7:00
Speaker 2: diving force behind the nation's productivity slump is the collapse
7:04
Speaker 2: in private sector jobs. This is coinciding with an increase
7:08
Speaker 2: in public sector jobs at five times the normal raid
7:12
Speaker 2: whopping eighty two percent of all jobs created over the
7:16
Speaker 2: past two years were government funded positions, the private sector
7:21
Speaker 2: contributing just.
7:22
Speaker 4: Eighteen percent DAN. That is just not sustainable. No wonder we've.
7:27
Speaker 2: Got a per capita recession effectively when you look at
7:31
Speaker 2: this data, well, well.
7:35
Speaker 4: That's exactly right.
7:35
Speaker 5: I've got to say that the Shouting Industry Group has
7:38
Speaker 5: sort of Johnny come Lately is to this. We put
7:40
Speaker 5: out a very similar report about a year ago showing,
7:42
Speaker 5: you know, post COVID, over eighty percent of jobs have
7:44
Speaker 5: been in the public sector or public sector adjacent and look,
7:48
Speaker 5: you spot on this is a very big issue for
7:51
Speaker 5: the underlying structure of our economy. There are fewer people
7:55
Speaker 5: that are now working in smaller family businesses. Those are
7:58
Speaker 5: getting squeezed. It's either big corporates or government sector in
8:03
Speaker 5: industries that are expanding the most. And so the actual
8:05
Speaker 5: foundation not just of our economy, but of the Australian
8:08
Speaker 5: way of life. You know this is small businesses are
8:11
Speaker 5: about risk taking, independence, entrepreneurship, go ahead, to get a
8:16
Speaker 5: head attitude. And unfortunately it's those very businesses, whether it's
8:19
Speaker 5: because of energy prices, red tape regulation, the overbearing bureaucracy
8:24
Speaker 5: that are incurring the costs of this and unfortunately it's
8:27
Speaker 5: only going to go one way while we are on
8:30
Speaker 5: these policy settings that we currently face.
8:32
Speaker 2: And we've got ACTU boss Sally McManus, she's revealed her
8:36
Speaker 2: wish list for Labour's Economic reform roundtable this month. She
8:40
Speaker 2: wants to ramp up property, income and resources taxes, The
8:45
Speaker 2: Australian reports. The ACTU secretary on Sunday revealed that her
8:49
Speaker 2: wish lists included twenty five billion dollars a year in
8:53
Speaker 2: new or higher taxes across negative gearing capital gains.
8:57
Speaker 4: Tax as well as new tax.
9:00
Speaker 2: Rates on resources, family trusts and wealthy Australians to ensure
9:05
Speaker 2: fair redistribution.
9:07
Speaker 4: Of productivity gains.
9:09
Speaker 2: DAN business groups have labeled these proposals as disconnected from reality,
9:16
Speaker 2: but that's never stopped the ACTU or Labor.
9:22
Speaker 1: Well, look that's right.
9:23
Speaker 5: I think that what sliment manis is doing here is
9:25
Speaker 5: actually probably smart politics for her because she's pretending to
9:28
Speaker 5: be on the side of workers, and then big business
9:30
Speaker 5: plays their part by pretending to attack her and attack
9:33
Speaker 5: the unions where they're all part of the same club fundamentally.
9:36
Speaker 5: But you know, the broader point to make here is
9:38
Speaker 5: the ACTU does not represent workers anymore. I mean, the
9:42
Speaker 5: typical ACTU member is an aging public servant on defined benefits.
9:46
Speaker 5: It is not the working class institution it once was.
9:50
Speaker 5: I mean the ACTU supports mass migration, which suppresses wages.
9:54
Speaker 5: It supports net zero which is destroying industry, and it
9:58
Speaker 5: supports mass migration, as I say, mass migration net zero
10:01
Speaker 5: and high taxes on businesses which is going to undermine
10:04
Speaker 5: their capacity to invest and create jobs. I mean, how
10:07
Speaker 5: is this in the interest of Australian workers. So I
10:09
Speaker 5: think it's long gone o the days when the act
10:13
Speaker 5: actually represented genuine working Australians.
10:16
Speaker 2: Now, before you go down, the IPA has been doing
10:18
Speaker 2: some great work in exposing the full extent of the
10:22
Speaker 2: Allen government's net zero land grab. Passed laws which will
10:26
Speaker 2: allow authorized government officers to enter private land that can
10:30
Speaker 2: use force that can without the landholders consent even construct
10:34
Speaker 2: transmission infrastructure that they deem necessary to meet net zero targets.
10:41
Speaker 4: Dan, what's happens in.
10:42
Speaker 2: Victoria often gets replicated elsewhere in the country by labor governments.
10:48
Speaker 4: Tell me about just how grim these new laws are.
10:54
Speaker 5: Well, thanks reader, a couple of things.
10:56
Speaker 4: You're right.
10:57
Speaker 5: Victoria is unfortunately a petri dish dish for the rest
11:00
Speaker 5: of Australia, and as you said earlier, labor premiers, which
11:04
Speaker 5: are all of them other than in Queensland, will be
11:05
Speaker 5: looking at this and to see how they're going to
11:08
Speaker 5: implement it as well. Basically, what it allows is for
11:12
Speaker 5: government officials to enter private farmland without any permission. But
11:18
Speaker 5: more than that, there would be a twelve thousand dollars
11:20
Speaker 5: fine placed upon farmers and landowners who refuse or don't
11:25
Speaker 5: facilitate access to their land by government bureaucrats to create
11:31
Speaker 5: what's called easements for these high tension, high voltage transmission towers.
11:35
Speaker 5: So this is the single biggest incursion of private property
11:39
Speaker 5: in Australia's history. It goes against everything that our nation
11:43
Speaker 5: stands for. Your home should be your castle and there
11:46
Speaker 5: should be no conditions under which a government can intervene
11:49
Speaker 5: in your private land in this manner when you.
11:51
Speaker 1: Haven't committed an offense.
11:52
Speaker 5: If you committed an offense, the police come to your house,
11:54
Speaker 5: that's a different thing.
11:55
Speaker 4: But these are just.
11:56
Speaker 5: Hard working farmers that are growing the food and fiber
11:59
Speaker 5: that fees this country, and we explorted around the world
12:02
Speaker 5: and they're getting punished for the failures of the Victorian
12:05
Speaker 5: government for something that's increasing electricity prices, it's undermining our
12:08
Speaker 5: food security, it's making us more dependent upon hostile foreign
12:12
Speaker 5: powers like China, and this is the thanks that they get.
12:15
Speaker 4: Dan Wild, thank you so much for your time tonight. Now.
12:17
Speaker 2: Accusations of misogyny and bullying have been thrown around after
12:22
Speaker 2: an explosive shouting match between two Cumberland City councilors, Armed
12:27
Speaker 2: Wolf and Diane Coleman.
12:29
Speaker 4: This occurred during.
12:30
Speaker 2: A council meeting last week and the footage is astonishing.
12:35
Speaker 9: Can you just say it, shut up when I'm talking,
12:39
Speaker 9: counselor again, I'm talking.
12:41
Speaker 1: This is my time, not your time.
12:43
Speaker 9: When I thought you shut up, okay, Why she's why
12:50
Speaker 9: she's talking while I'm talking. Why she's taking from my time?
12:54
Speaker 9: You just keep your mouth shut when I'm talking. I never,
12:57
Speaker 9: I never, ever, when you were talking or having a time.
13:03
Speaker 1: Your short is Peth, your short is best. You're raising
13:07
Speaker 1: your vote.
13:08
Speaker 9: It's not going to intimidate me. I'm not intimidated, not
13:14
Speaker 9: one hundred.
13:16
Speaker 4: Counting off off it.
13:24
Speaker 9: Then short respect so that you can be respected when
13:28
Speaker 9: I'm talking.
13:29
Speaker 4: I'm going to move in a journeyman for fifteen minutes. Yes, wow,
13:34
Speaker 4: joining me?
13:35
Speaker 2: Now is Cumberland City counselor Steve Christ do Steve?
13:38
Speaker 4: You went one of those two?
13:39
Speaker 2: But how did you feel sitting there watching that? And
13:43
Speaker 2: what was behind that astonishing exchange?
13:46
Speaker 6: Look first and foremost, I'll say it was a very
13:49
Speaker 6: unhealthy and unsafe environment for everybody to be involved with,
13:54
Speaker 6: and I particularly felt sorry for the council staff to
13:56
Speaker 6: have to deal with these egos. Now, what stuff at
14:00
Speaker 6: all is? Council Ulf had started expressing his support for
14:04
Speaker 6: the Easter celebration and then I think he deviated and
14:08
Speaker 6: went back trying to express support for Philan Daffa because
14:11
Speaker 6: he wasn't given a chance to express his support. Now,
14:14
Speaker 6: there was some sniping from the other side, counsel colemen
14:16
Speaker 6: and her labor colleagues, and it kicked off from there.
14:19
Speaker 2: Oh dear, and you mentioned how some of the staff
14:22
Speaker 2: there might be feeling. Apparently one resident who was attending
14:25
Speaker 2: the meeting, just a rate payer, She was left in
14:30
Speaker 2: tears watching that exchange. So it must have been pretty heated.
14:33
Speaker 2: And he went on for a bit longer than what
14:35
Speaker 2: we've shown.
14:36
Speaker 6: Yes, after the German it went on for about five minutes.
14:39
Speaker 6: To the best of my recollection. A resident who was
14:42
Speaker 6: present actually started praying and I had to console her.
14:46
Speaker 6: And it's just disgraceful. And you know, and some of.
14:50
Speaker 2: These counselors have a little bit of form, and you've
14:53
Speaker 2: served on that council for some time and you've copped
14:56
Speaker 2: it yourself.
14:58
Speaker 6: I definitely have. In twenty twenty two, July twenty two,
15:01
Speaker 6: I still remember it. Counts a common actually called me
15:04
Speaker 6: a d head meeting German during a meeting we had
15:08
Speaker 6: in a German and she called me.
15:09
Speaker 4: A d head.
15:10
Speaker 6: Unfortunately, Counts Coleman has formed. It is my opinion that
15:14
Speaker 6: she has graduated straight from the labor me and Girls club.
15:17
Speaker 6: But you know, when you hear Chris Mins and Rose
15:20
Speaker 6: Jackson and Penny Sharp carry on about Mark Latham's suppose
15:25
Speaker 6: a disgraceful workplace behavior. Why don't they practice what they
15:28
Speaker 6: preach when it's one of their own because a silence
15:31
Speaker 6: from them now is deafening.
15:33
Speaker 3: Yeah.
15:33
Speaker 2: Yeah, that behavior is just out of bounds all around.
15:38
Speaker 4: Now, let's talk about an other issue.
15:41
Speaker 2: I want to get your thoughts on these comments by
15:43
Speaker 2: the Prime Minister about welcome to country. The Prime Minister
15:48
Speaker 2: was at the Gama Festival and his criticize and I
15:51
Speaker 2: quote here those who choose the cheap politics of division
15:54
Speaker 2: over the patient work of lasting change, or who seek
15:58
Speaker 2: to turn the grace and generosity of a welcomed to
16:02
Speaker 2: country into a political weapon. Steve, what is your response
16:07
Speaker 2: to that? Should we all just be endlessly grateful for
16:10
Speaker 2: being welcomed to our own country and any sort of
16:15
Speaker 2: criticism or questioning of whether this is necessary or indeed helpful.
16:21
Speaker 2: He's basically dismissing it as cheap politics and divisive.
16:26
Speaker 6: I think will all be grateful if Anthony alban Easy
16:30
Speaker 6: just gave this arrest at the end of the day.
16:32
Speaker 6: I find it highly offensive. How you know, we need
16:35
Speaker 6: to be welcomed into our own country. People came here,
16:39
Speaker 6: the original Anglo pioneers and the ethnic multicultural community in
16:43
Speaker 6: the sixties, seventy eighties and nineties and built Australia and
16:47
Speaker 6: helped contribute to what it is today. Some of them
16:49
Speaker 6: work six seven days on the job, others died on
16:52
Speaker 6: the job, didn't get a day off. And to to
16:54
Speaker 6: all these people and the rest of us that we
16:56
Speaker 6: need to be welcomed into our own country, a country
16:59
Speaker 6: where we have have helped pay taxes and make a
17:01
Speaker 6: better place, is highly offensive and it's.
17:04
Speaker 2: Highly offensive to many in the migrant community. And Labor
17:07
Speaker 2: kind of missed that and they seem to have not
17:09
Speaker 2: learned the lesson from the referendum, because the reverendum showed
17:13
Speaker 2: that the overwhelming majority of Australians don't want this sort
17:17
Speaker 2: of race politics. Shut down their throat that we certainly
17:20
Speaker 2: don't want it in our constitution.
17:22
Speaker 4: And the migrant community.
17:26
Speaker 2: I think spoke loudly there as well, and I think
17:30
Speaker 2: Labor count on those votes and they've really neglected those
17:34
Speaker 2: voters when it comes to this issue.
17:35
Speaker 6: They absolutely have, and they can't read a room. Over
17:38
Speaker 6: at Cumberland, we represent two hundred and fifty thousand people.
17:42
Speaker 6: It had I think the highest no vote in the
17:44
Speaker 6: country sixty four percent.
17:46
Speaker 4: Incredible, and yet.
17:47
Speaker 6: He wants to push on with our work on the
17:49
Speaker 6: country's acknowledgement to countries and treaties and allow this nonsense
17:54
Speaker 6: to divide Australia and what it's doing. It's actually causing
17:57
Speaker 6: a lot of hatred towards an indigenous people rather than
18:00
Speaker 6: uniting us all with Indigenous brothers and sisters.
18:04
Speaker 4: Well said Stiff Christ. Thank you so much for your time.
18:06
Speaker 6: Thank you.
18:07
Speaker 4: Still to come. Left is losing it.
18:09
Speaker 2: Plast the latest from the US, including conjecture that some
18:13
Speaker 2: big names will be facing perjury charges. Josh Hammer has
18:17
Speaker 2: the details. Welcome back and it's time for lefties losing it.
18:32
Speaker 2: Let's start with the entertainment world and the latest production
18:36
Speaker 2: of Jesus Christ Superstar is underway.
18:39
Speaker 4: And this is who they've picked to play Jesus.
18:43
Speaker 2: Yes, they cast a black woman, Cynthia Arrivo to play Jesus.
18:48
Speaker 4: They're so brave.
18:49
Speaker 2: When it comes to mocking or reimagining Christianity. They wouldn't
18:53
Speaker 2: do that with some other religions. Let's have a look
18:56
Speaker 2: at the performance at the Hollywood Ball. Here is Anthea
19:00
Speaker 2: with Adam Lambert, who played Judas. I understand, yeah, I
19:18
Speaker 2: don't understand it. Ita talking about being confused. Let's checking
19:22
Speaker 2: on Joe Biden. He appeared at the National Bar Association
19:27
Speaker 2: gala in Chicago, and he appeared lost right from the start.
19:32
Speaker 4: Look at him.
19:34
Speaker 2: This is the man the Democrats and the media told
19:36
Speaker 2: you was cognitively sound.
19:38
Speaker 4: Let's hear from the former president. Now.
19:42
Speaker 2: The speech started badly, and sadly, it only got worse
19:47
Speaker 2: from there.
19:48
Speaker 10: You know, do many car horn from your calhorn and
19:54
Speaker 10: all of the other past presidents, including my friend Ben Crump,
19:58
Speaker 10: thank you for running me for this, Awar It's a
20:01
Speaker 10: big deal. The other reason to get you got me started.
20:05
Speaker 11: Not a joke.
20:06
Speaker 10: I've been doing this and I've been elected office for
20:08
Speaker 10: fifty two years now.
20:11
Speaker 4: Not a joke, folks.
20:12
Speaker 2: And here is Joe in a shouty mode at telling
20:15
Speaker 2: us what we already knew. He picked Kamala Harris because
20:19
Speaker 2: of her gender and her race.
20:22
Speaker 11: I was proud as Kamala Harris to run with me
20:25
Speaker 11: be the first black woman to serve as vice president,
20:28
Speaker 11: states it was important as president I made the cause
20:35
Speaker 11: of civil rights and the quality of the foundation of.
20:37
Speaker 10: Everything I did.
20:39
Speaker 2: And talking about Kamala, let's see this bizarre book promotion
20:43
Speaker 2: by the former Vice president. Someone in Kamala's marketing team
20:48
Speaker 2: clearly hates her, because why else would you have her
20:51
Speaker 2: doing this.
20:52
Speaker 12: Everyone thinks you've been kicking back, drinking Margarita's on the beach,
20:57
Speaker 12: But really you've been hard at work a book, meeting
21:01
Speaker 12: with leaders thinking about the future of our country.
21:05
Speaker 4: Who said that?
21:07
Speaker 2: And Kamala is out there promoting the hell out of
21:10
Speaker 2: this pool. Here she is with sacked like night TV
21:14
Speaker 2: host Stephen Colbert, and wowie, wasn't this a scintillating interview.
21:20
Speaker 13: I like these kinds of air ear pods that have
21:23
Speaker 13: the thing.
21:24
Speaker 3: Because I've served on the Senate Intelligence Committee. I have
21:30
Speaker 3: been in classified briefings, and I'm telling you, like, don't
21:33
Speaker 3: be on the train using your ear pods and thinking
21:35
Speaker 3: somebody can't listen to your conversation.
21:37
Speaker 4: I'm just telling.
21:38
Speaker 3: You that's a little bit more secure.
21:43
Speaker 2: Yes, she likes the ear pods with the thing and
21:47
Speaker 2: just the mad cackling. I've got to say I have
21:49
Speaker 2: missed that mad cackling. I've missed the incoherent, meandering, pointless
21:54
Speaker 2: sentences as well.
21:55
Speaker 13: I mean, there's a lot of personal stuff in the book.
21:58
Speaker 4: I mean poor.
22:05
Speaker 3: For example, my birthday is in October, the elections in November.
22:12
Speaker 4: You see where I'm.
22:13
Speaker 2: Going, Kamala, believe me when I say I have no
22:19
Speaker 2: idea what you're talking about or where you're going.
22:22
Speaker 4: And frankly, I don't think you do either.
22:25
Speaker 2: I think every sentence for Kamala is a bit of
22:27
Speaker 2: a mystery.
22:29
Speaker 4: She doesn't know exactly where she's going to end up
22:31
Speaker 4: or how she'll get there. Let's get back.
22:34
Speaker 2: To what has What she says was a highlight of
22:37
Speaker 2: her book. The personal stuff sounds enthralling.
22:41
Speaker 3: Dougie kind of dropped the ball up my big birthday.
22:44
Speaker 4: You didn't get you anything. Oh you have to read
22:47
Speaker 4: the book, all right?
22:52
Speaker 1: Tell me the page.
22:56
Speaker 2: You can't wait to read? That promises to be a
22:59
Speaker 2: real page turn. But surely Kamala can answer this next
23:03
Speaker 2: question about who is currently leading the Democrats.
23:07
Speaker 4: Who's leading the Democratic Party? I'm just curious.
23:10
Speaker 14: There are lots of leaders, and they're generally all leader
23:13
Speaker 14: of the Democratic Party, you know, like, oh, that's the
23:16
Speaker 14: leader Donative Party.
23:16
Speaker 1: Who comes to mind.
23:18
Speaker 13: I think there are a lot of I'm not going
23:20
Speaker 13: to go through names because then I'm going to leave
23:22
Speaker 13: somebody out, and then I'm going to hear about it.
23:24
Speaker 13: But just let me say this, I think it is
23:28
Speaker 13: a mistake for us who want to figure out how
23:34
Speaker 13: to get out and through this and get out of it,
23:37
Speaker 13: to put it on the shoulders of any one person.
23:41
Speaker 2: Nice try, Kamala, but you cannot name a single leader.
23:45
Speaker 2: You cannot answer the simplest and most obvious of questions,
23:50
Speaker 2: and the Democrats are in such dire straits that you
23:54
Speaker 2: the worst presidential candidate perhaps ever you, Kamala, are still
23:58
Speaker 2: the front runner to be twenty twenty eight candidate.
24:02
Speaker 14: Yep.
24:03
Speaker 4: The polls and.
24:03
Speaker 2: Even CNN confirmed that the Democrat brand is complete garbage.
24:09
Speaker 14: One of the reasons why there is no front runner,
24:11
Speaker 14: nobody wants to put anybody up at the top of
24:13
Speaker 14: their ballot list is because at this particular point, the
24:16
Speaker 14: Democratic brand is in the basement. It is total and
24:19
Speaker 14: complete garbage in the mind of the American public.
24:21
Speaker 2: Let's bring in Newsweek's senior editor at Large and article
24:24
Speaker 2: three Projects Senior Council, Josh Hammer. Josh, We'll start with Kamala.
24:29
Speaker 2: Her new book is sounds interesting. The state of the
24:33
Speaker 2: Democrats is even more interesting. That are rudderless, no clear
24:37
Speaker 2: leadership with the most radical voices currently setting the agenda.
24:44
Speaker 1: Look, I mean, who's going to read this book? First?
24:47
Speaker 15: I'll reader I mean like literally, I mean like literally,
24:49
Speaker 15: like like what is the actual audience vest I'm sure, Look,
24:52
Speaker 15: I mean I published book. I know a little bit
24:54
Speaker 15: about how the book publishing process works. I'm sure there'll
24:57
Speaker 15: be some large left wing NGOs, you know, the Soros Foundation,
25:02
Speaker 15: groups like that, that will bulk purchase a bunch of copies.
25:04
Speaker 15: But you know what, like real American, what actual person
25:07
Speaker 15: out there in proverbial or literal flyover country in the
25:10
Speaker 15: middle of the country is actually going to run to
25:13
Speaker 15: the local bookstore or go to Amazon ors on online
25:16
Speaker 15: vendor I actually purchase book. I have no idea. I mean,
25:18
Speaker 15: this woman can literally not even finish a coherent sentence
25:22
Speaker 15: without Samuel, Like she's just reading off a que card.
25:24
Speaker 15: So I can't I can't even imagine when it's going
25:26
Speaker 15: to be in whole chapters. I mean, to be clear,
25:28
Speaker 15: not that she wrote the whole thing to herself there,
25:30
Speaker 15: but look, I mean, what what does Kamala Harris want
25:32
Speaker 15: to do? I mean she she recently told Stephen Colbert
25:35
Speaker 15: that she has no intention of seeking the goober the
25:38
Speaker 15: governorship of California and Sacramento. That's probably music to the year,
25:43
Speaker 15: as I would imagine if most California Democrats don't want
25:45
Speaker 15: to deal with anywhere anything close to that, to that hot, stinking,
25:48
Speaker 15: flaming bag of garbage. But you know what, she's really
25:51
Speaker 15: trying to stay in the public life. That's why one
25:53
Speaker 15: publishes a book, after all. So I don't really know
25:55
Speaker 15: what she's trying to do. Read I don't really know
25:57
Speaker 15: exactly what her endgame is. I suspect I suspec actually
26:00
Speaker 15: might be trying to give it another go in twenty
26:02
Speaker 15: twenty eight, which, frankly, again as someone who wishes the
26:04
Speaker 15: Democrats nothing but the worst, I kind of smiled ear
26:07
Speaker 15: to ear at that because it felt eply once and
26:09
Speaker 15: all it felt epically again. If they're so stupid enough
26:11
Speaker 15: the trade.
26:12
Speaker 2: That's precisely my prediction. I think she's looking at the polls.
26:16
Speaker 2: She is the front runner in the polls for twenty
26:19
Speaker 2: twenty eight as far as the Democrats are concerned, and
26:22
Speaker 2: she's delusional.
26:23
Speaker 4: Enough to give it another go.
26:25
Speaker 2: Now, let's move on to the Cincinnati mob attacks. One
26:29
Speaker 2: of the victims there has spoken out. Single Mom Holly
26:33
Speaker 2: was bash. She was knocked out cold by a group
26:36
Speaker 2: of thugs in Cincinnati. Well, she's broken a silence to
26:39
Speaker 2: thank those who have highlighted what happened to her.
26:43
Speaker 12: You have just brought back faith in humanity.
26:48
Speaker 1: So God bless you all.
26:50
Speaker 4: Thank you.
26:53
Speaker 7: I appreciate everything that you're doing for me, my family.
26:58
Speaker 2: And the mayor of Since Natty has still not for
27:02
Speaker 2: the to talk to Holly or the other victims.
27:07
Speaker 8: I have not.
27:08
Speaker 1: I mean, look again, this was a fight. It was
27:10
Speaker 1: a horrific fight.
27:12
Speaker 9: But as a council member and others have said, we
27:15
Speaker 9: have significant other public safety challenges.
27:19
Speaker 4: Fight.
27:20
Speaker 2: Josh, he called it a fight. I'm saying the footage
27:24
Speaker 2: it was a mob attack.
27:25
Speaker 4: It was no fight.
27:28
Speaker 15: Yeah, so this is this is a race mob. I mean,
27:31
Speaker 15: this is a racialist mob. This was a mob of predominantly,
27:35
Speaker 15: if not exclusively, black people and non white people mobbing
27:38
Speaker 15: up to basically beat the crap out of white people.
27:41
Speaker 15: And you know, Rita, as I said on my show,
27:43
Speaker 15: The Josh Hammer Show, I mean, what did what did
27:46
Speaker 15: you think was going to happen?
27:47
Speaker 1: You know, like, what did the people out there.
27:49
Speaker 15: Champion that white people are an oppressor class, that the
27:52
Speaker 15: white race is responsible for more tyranny and genocide and
27:56
Speaker 15: colonialism and pure loism and all these various other ivory
27:59
Speaker 15: tower stupid left wing isms. You know, at what point
28:02
Speaker 15: did you think that someone was actually gonna start throwing punches?
28:05
Speaker 15: God forbid, It actually could have been a lot worse.
28:06
Speaker 15: They could have taken out guns or something like that there.
28:09
Speaker 15: But this is a race mob. And does anyone think
28:11
Speaker 15: for a second, literally, does anyone think for one second
28:14
Speaker 15: that if the races were reversed that a bunch of
28:16
Speaker 15: white people start being the crap out of a bunch
28:18
Speaker 15: of black people, that this mayor Cincinnati would say, oh,
28:21
Speaker 15: we have a lot of violence here in Cincinnati, Ohio.
28:23
Speaker 1: A bull crap utter, a complete bull crap.
28:26
Speaker 15: You know, he had a moral obligation to reach out,
28:30
Speaker 15: probably from from the first instance, but the second that
28:32
Speaker 15: this that this story started generating national you know, I
28:36
Speaker 15: guess to an extent international headlines there, which happened pretty
28:39
Speaker 15: quickly due to the race centric nature of it. The
28:42
Speaker 15: mayor has to be involved there. I mean, this is
28:44
Speaker 15: the reputation of his city really at stake. Cincinnati, Ohio
28:47
Speaker 15: is not a small city, actually, it's it's it's a
28:49
Speaker 15: decently large city. It's not a Chicago New York City metropolis,
28:52
Speaker 15: but the decently large city there. But this is a
28:54
Speaker 15: veritable race mob, and no one should think for a
28:56
Speaker 15: for a single second reader that the races were reverse,
28:59
Speaker 15: that this schmark would not be immediately bothering seconds.
29:02
Speaker 2: Absolutely, and the police chief there seems as hopeless as
29:06
Speaker 2: the mayor.
29:07
Speaker 4: She suggested late last week that.
29:09
Speaker 2: There was another side to this viral footage, and she
29:12
Speaker 2: admonished the media for publicizing it.
29:16
Speaker 4: But you're right.
29:18
Speaker 2: If it wasn't for X, if it wasn't for social media,
29:21
Speaker 2: we may have never heard about this story in the
29:23
Speaker 2: mainstream media. It was really X that pushed this footage,
29:27
Speaker 2: and in the end the vice president was asked about it,
29:31
Speaker 2: and when he weighed in, the mainstream media seemed to
29:34
Speaker 2: finally get interested in in covering this story.
29:37
Speaker 4: Now, let's move along to.
29:38
Speaker 2: Revelations that the FBI never probed confidential talks between the Democrats,
29:44
Speaker 2: including the Clinton campaign, and high ranking employees of liberal
29:50
Speaker 2: billionaire George Soros, leftist billionaire and his Open Society Foundation.
29:55
Speaker 2: These Sauros operatives Josh, including Leonard Bernardo, held confidential conversations
30:02
Speaker 2: with the Democratic National Committee and Hillary Clinton's campaign team
30:06
Speaker 2: in twenty sixteen to push the false Russian collusion narrative
30:12
Speaker 2: to smear Donald Trump. The then DNC chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz,
30:18
Speaker 2: she was in these meetings, and I do remember when
30:22
Speaker 2: these emails were first unearthed back in twenty twenty, the
30:25
Speaker 2: Democrats had a very convenient, very familiar excuse.
30:30
Speaker 4: They said it was the Russians.
30:32
Speaker 8: The document reportedly came to the attention of US intelligence
30:36
Speaker 8: officials from Dutch intelligence. It included discussion of an email
30:40
Speaker 8: exchange between former DNC chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz and Leonard Bernardo,
30:45
Speaker 8: an official with Open Society Foundations run.
30:48
Speaker 1: By George Soros.
30:49
Speaker 8: According to The Times, Wasserman Schultz allegedly told Bernardo that
30:53
Speaker 8: then Attorney General Loretta Lynch would not charge Clinton with
30:56
Speaker 8: a crime for having the primate email server.
30:58
Speaker 1: Wasserman Schulton Bernardo I've.
31:00
Speaker 8: Both denied even being in contact with each other, suggesting
31:03
Speaker 8: the document was a fake attempt by the Russians to
31:06
Speaker 8: throw a wrench into the US intelligence community.
31:09
Speaker 2: Josh, why aren't we going to say something approaching consequences
31:14
Speaker 2: for all this lying, all this plotting, and really undermining
31:19
Speaker 2: of democracy.
31:21
Speaker 1: All right, So, first of.
31:22
Speaker 15: All, in that cut that we just heard, I'm really
31:24
Speaker 15: happy that whoever was that voiceover and that cut talked
31:27
Speaker 15: about the Hillary Clinton email scanner, because many of us
31:30
Speaker 15: actually have not forgotten about that Hillary Clinton had thirty
31:33
Speaker 15: three thousand, thirty three thousand emails for high security State
31:38
Speaker 15: Department official duties and a private server. She did the
31:41
Speaker 15: whole bleach bit thing, tried to erase it overnight there,
31:44
Speaker 15: and when James Comy in late juneor early July twenty sixteen,
31:49
Speaker 15: right at the heart of that presidential campaign cycle, when
31:52
Speaker 15: James Comby as the FBI director, got out there and
31:54
Speaker 15: said that he is not going to recommend charges or
31:57
Speaker 15: bring charges against Hillary Clinton because no reasonable Processketer would
32:00
Speaker 15: do it. While simultaneously, around right the same time, within
32:04
Speaker 15: leads to each other, the FBI had formally launched Operation
32:07
Speaker 15: Crossfire Hurricane, this investigation into alleged Russiagate, which we now
32:11
Speaker 15: know beyond the shadow of doubt, had its origins in
32:14
Speaker 15: the Clinton campaign, the Steele dossier, Fujian GPS, this whole
32:17
Speaker 15: terrible story there.
32:18
Speaker 1: So when James.
32:19
Speaker 15: Cally did those two things within a few weeks, each other.
32:22
Speaker 15: That was the original sin I would say of America's
32:24
Speaker 15: current two tier system of justice, the way that it's
32:27
Speaker 15: played out, I really do trace it all back to
32:30
Speaker 15: the summer of twenty sixteen. So I would love to
32:32
Speaker 15: see James Comy, obviously John Brennan beheld accountable. I would
32:38
Speaker 15: love to be able to tell the audience that these
32:39
Speaker 15: guys are going to get purp walks and mugshots similar
32:42
Speaker 15: to Donald Trump down and Fannie Willis Fulton County, Georgia.
32:44
Speaker 15: I mean, that seems like a long time ago, frankly,
32:46
Speaker 15: doesn't it. Unfortunately read I'm a little too sober at
32:49
Speaker 15: this point there. I do think that there is a
32:51
Speaker 15: real chance of a possible perjury charge against Brennan, maybe
32:55
Speaker 15: even Hillary Clinton too. Hillary Clinton has had a recent
32:58
Speaker 15: congressional testimony within the five your Statute limitations that seems
33:01
Speaker 15: to go pretty strongly against these recent TULSI Gabber John
33:04
Speaker 15: Ratcliffe revelations pretending.
33:06
Speaker 1: To rush a gate there.
33:07
Speaker 15: So I think some perjury charges are definitely within the
33:10
Speaker 15: realm of possibility there. But you know, I hate to
33:13
Speaker 15: be the bearer of bad news. I would not get
33:15
Speaker 15: our hopes up to see Barack Obama do a mugshot
33:18
Speaker 15: purplock type thing.
33:19
Speaker 2: Well, former CIA director John Brennan, he's been back on MSNBC,
33:24
Speaker 2: and here he, with a straight face, tells a nodding
33:28
Speaker 2: Democrat operative that he is completely apolitical.
33:32
Speaker 1: That's particularly important.
33:33
Speaker 7: For people who I think are non person a political
33:37
Speaker 7: like many.
33:37
Speaker 16: I'm not a registered Democrat or Republican.
33:39
Speaker 1: I a choot politics.
33:40
Speaker 2: Quite frankly, Well, there you go, Josh, he's not a
33:43
Speaker 2: registered Democrat or Republican.
33:45
Speaker 4: Nothing to say here. What's your response to that?
33:49
Speaker 15: Yeah, I mean speaking to people that I would love
33:50
Speaker 15: to see in handcuffs with a mugshot, right, I mean,
33:53
Speaker 15: I mean looking at him right there, John Brennan. I mean, look,
33:56
Speaker 15: if there is one person who I think should be
33:58
Speaker 15: the lowest of all low hanging fruits of the tire
34:00
Speaker 15: Russia Gate hoax other than arguably Hillary Clinton herself, I
34:04
Speaker 15: mean you're looking at John Brennan right there. And we
34:06
Speaker 15: recently saw in these wonderful declassifications that we've seen from
34:10
Speaker 15: Tulca Gabber, the D and I Director of National Intelligence,
34:13
Speaker 15: as well as John Ratcliffe, the CIA Director. Among these
34:17
Speaker 15: recent D classifications is a twenty twenty majority report from
34:21
Speaker 15: then Congressman Devennudees on the House Permanent Select Committee for Intelligence.
34:25
Speaker 15: And within these recently declassifyed documents from this twenty twenty
34:28
Speaker 15: House report, we see this amazing exchange, this incredible exchange
34:32
Speaker 15: leading up to the infamous January sixth, twenty seventeen Intelligence
34:36
Speaker 15: Community assessments. In other words, this deep state intelligence memo
34:40
Speaker 15: that John Brennan personally orchestrated. That man we just saw there,
34:43
Speaker 15: he tasked five of his senior CIA and analysts.
34:47
Speaker 1: He's his most trustworthy guys there to rush.
34:49
Speaker 15: This memo out the door before Donald Trump put his
34:51
Speaker 15: hand in the Bible, took the oath of office. And
34:53
Speaker 15: one person there, a senior veteran maybe I think multiple
34:57
Speaker 15: actually multiple veteran CIA officers, he said that. John Brennan said,
35:01
Speaker 15: are you sure you want to do this?
35:02
Speaker 1: There?
35:02
Speaker 15: This whole Steel Darcy a thing there, It doesn't look
35:05
Speaker 15: very reliable there. And John Brennan's response. Reader John Brann's
35:09
Speaker 15: response was, but doesn't it ring true? And you know
35:13
Speaker 15: those words right there, doesn't it ring true? If you
35:16
Speaker 15: had to sum up why the American people are any
35:19
Speaker 15: biporising across the political spectrum fit a populist fervor. This
35:23
Speaker 15: deep anti establishment Bernald unsentiments, I would say, doesn't it
35:27
Speaker 15: ring true from freaking John Brennan really encapsulates all that.
35:32
Speaker 2: His complicity in so much of what has happened over
35:37
Speaker 2: the last six years is astonishing well longer than longer
35:42
Speaker 2: than that. And let's not forget his part in smearing
35:48
Speaker 2: the New York Post and presenting their bombshell story about
35:52
Speaker 2: Hunter Biden's laptop. He was amongst those who said this
35:56
Speaker 2: was Russian disinformation. He's signed that letter, and the influence
36:01
Speaker 2: that would have had right before the twenty twenty election
36:04
Speaker 2: can't be understated. Now, let's hear from Director of National
36:09
Speaker 2: Intelligence Tulsey Gabbard, who confirms here that there are still
36:14
Speaker 2: deep state intel agents at the CI who are doing
36:19
Speaker 2: what they can to undermine the president.
36:22
Speaker 16: There are people within the intelligence community who believe that
36:27
Speaker 16: their will is more important than the will of the
36:29
Speaker 16: American people and will weaponize intelligence by leaking it to
36:35
Speaker 16: their friends within the mainstream media with the intent of
36:38
Speaker 16: undermining President Trump's agenda.
36:41
Speaker 2: Now, Josh Donald Trump promised a reckoning. He had people
36:46
Speaker 2: associated with him jailed over so very dubious politically motivated charges.
36:52
Speaker 4: Are we going to see a reckoning? Are they going
36:55
Speaker 4: to get away with it?
36:56
Speaker 15: So, I mean there's a difference here, reader, between me
36:59
Speaker 15: saying what I want to happen versus me putting on
37:01
Speaker 15: my legal hat as a lawyer and try to kind
37:03
Speaker 15: of predict what will actually happen here. First of all,
37:05
Speaker 15: you know, on Toolsi's comments right there about how there
37:08
Speaker 15: are still hostile subversive deep state actors, of course I
37:12
Speaker 15: mean least surprising comments. Ever, I mean, I mean, there
37:14
Speaker 15: is zero shred of doubt in my mind that these
37:18
Speaker 15: swamp monsters, you know, proliferate frankly throughout all the various
37:22
Speaker 15: organs of the intelligence community, the CIA, the FBI, NSA.
37:25
Speaker 15: So I have no doubt about that really whatsoever. There
37:28
Speaker 15: As far as seeking justice here here, here is what
37:31
Speaker 15: I will say. I do think that there are serious
37:33
Speaker 15: chances of getting John Brennan, James Comy, and Dora Hillary
37:36
Speaker 15: Clinton on perjury charges perjury under federal law having five
37:39
Speaker 15: year statute limitations, and all three of them, based on
37:43
Speaker 15: what I've seen, you could you could very plausely argue
37:46
Speaker 15: they perjure themselves before Congress within the past five years.
37:48
Speaker 15: I think, especially John Brennan, that might be the easiest
37:51
Speaker 15: case for Pam Bondi and her Russiagate strikeforce that she's
37:54
Speaker 15: calling it. That might be the easiest case for them
37:57
Speaker 15: to go after. There, But a lot of these other crimes,
37:59
Speaker 15: let's call we'll go back to twenty sixteen, twenty seventeen,
38:02
Speaker 15: and most of most of the crimes I hear people
38:04
Speaker 15: talking about have either a five or a seven year
38:06
Speaker 15: statute limitations. So that does raise read of the interesting
38:09
Speaker 15: possibility that maybe you want to go kind of pull
38:11
Speaker 15: an Alvin Bragg in reverse and try to, shall I say,
38:15
Speaker 15: creatively begin the tollding of statute of limitations. Allah, how
38:18
Speaker 15: Alvin Bragg tried to do the very same thing to
38:21
Speaker 15: Donald Trump. Actually, how we successfully did the same thing
38:23
Speaker 15: that Donald Trump in that outrageous Stormy Daniels, Michael Cohen,
38:26
Speaker 15: you know, New York State fraudulent bookkeeping, hush money, the
38:29
Speaker 15: most stalness prosecution, frankly of my entire adult lifetime. So
38:32
Speaker 15: I mean, so, I mean, that's a very interesting conversation.
38:35
Speaker 15: Should the right engage in some similar tactics there? Honestly,
38:38
Speaker 15: my inclination is, actually, if it's remotely plausible.
38:40
Speaker 1: Probably yes, because I have.
38:42
Speaker 15: Long been of the opinion that when it comes to
38:44
Speaker 15: this law fair that the Democrats started with Merrick Garland Jacksmith,
38:48
Speaker 15: I do think that short term escalation is necessary to
38:51
Speaker 15: throw some punches back in the service of a midtal
38:54
Speaker 15: long term truce. I don't know if that's going to
38:57
Speaker 15: happen there, so I'm just kind of tempering expectations. I
39:00
Speaker 15: think the perjury charges for Brennan call me and or
39:02
Speaker 15: Hillary might be the best we can probably reasonably helpful.
39:06
Speaker 2: I think you're one hundred percent right there that law
39:09
Speaker 2: fare that the Democrats started. If the Republicans don't hit back,
39:14
Speaker 2: it really doesn't provide any sort of an incentive for
39:17
Speaker 2: the Democrats not to do that again when they're in power.
39:19
Speaker 2: This is the only way you're going to be restoring
39:23
Speaker 2: some some sanity and standards and not having these agencies
39:29
Speaker 2: completely politicized and weaponized to go after political opponents.
39:34
Speaker 4: Josh Hamma, thank you so much again for your time.
39:36
Speaker 4: Tonight still to come.
39:38
Speaker 2: Why pop star Lizzo has a weight in on the
39:40
Speaker 2: Sydney Sweeney fear or kinseysco.
39:43
Speaker 4: Field is up next? Welcome back?
39:55
Speaker 2: Joining me now is celebrity and royal commentator kinseysco Field,
40:00
Speaker 2: Prince Harry and Meghan Michael's legal team have been in
40:04
Speaker 2: contact with a Daily Mail after it republished allegations made
40:09
Speaker 2: in Andrew Lownie's new book in title. These allegations all
40:13
Speaker 2: about Harry and Prince Andrew having a fist fight back
40:17
Speaker 2: in twenty thirteen, and that Prince Andrew made some derogatory
40:22
Speaker 2: comments about Meghan.
40:25
Speaker 4: I know, you know what, I have to be honest.
40:26
Speaker 7: I don't think that Prince Harry cares at all about
40:29
Speaker 7: the fist fight. I mean it's the only thing that's
40:31
Speaker 7: made him sound cool in a few years, right. I
40:33
Speaker 7: think this is all about Meghan Markle. So, according to Loney,
40:37
Speaker 7: Andrew told Harry his marriage to Meghan would not last
40:40
Speaker 7: more than a month and accused his nephew of going
40:43
Speaker 7: bonkers for not doing any due diligence into her past.
40:48
Speaker 7: He openly accused Meghan of being an opportunist and thought
40:51
Speaker 7: she was too old for Harry, adding that his nephew
40:54
Speaker 7: was making the biggest mistake ever. The source said Harry
40:58
Speaker 7: later told Prince William he hated Andrew. I think that
41:02
Speaker 7: this is all about Andrew saying what we were all
41:04
Speaker 7: thinking and what we are all thinking. That's what this
41:07
Speaker 7: attorney's letter is about.
41:09
Speaker 6: Wow.
41:10
Speaker 2: Yeah, I would have thought a fistfight is as pretty
41:12
Speaker 2: much the most impressive thing I've heard about Prince Harry,
41:15
Speaker 2: particularly given Prince Andrew is the one being punched.
41:19
Speaker 4: We all know about his shady past.
41:23
Speaker 2: Now let's move on to the controversy surrounding Sydney Sweeney's
41:27
Speaker 2: American Eagle ads, and Lizzo has posted this picture mocking
41:33
Speaker 2: the ads. I've got to say, Kinsey, we spoke about
41:37
Speaker 2: this issue throughout last week.
41:39
Speaker 4: I'm already tired of it.
41:41
Speaker 2: But the more celebrities that weigh in on this, the
41:45
Speaker 2: more we're going to have to talk about it.
41:47
Speaker 7: Yeah, and the liberal media has also tried to shame
41:50
Speaker 7: Sidney Sweeney by outing her as this registered Republican. The
41:53
Speaker 7: media just asked President Trump for his reaction to Sweeney's
41:57
Speaker 7: surprise voter registration, and he said.
41:58
Speaker 1: Oh, now, I love her.
42:00
Speaker 7: I'm glad you told me that if Sidney Sweeney is
42:02
Speaker 7: a registered Republican, I think her out is fantastic. So
42:06
Speaker 7: you'll know that roll is elevated. It has the endorsement
42:10
Speaker 7: of the President of the United States, and I can
42:13
Speaker 7: guarantee you his administration will try to do something positive
42:17
Speaker 7: for her.
42:18
Speaker 2: Well, that is very interesting because we have been discussing
42:21
Speaker 2: how she will handle this, whether she's going to become
42:25
Speaker 2: red peeled completely when she has faced this barrage of
42:29
Speaker 2: unhinged abuse, being called some sort of a Nazi barbie,
42:33
Speaker 2: being accused of doing fascist propaganda and all sorts of
42:36
Speaker 2: other craziness, or whether she's going to come out and
42:39
Speaker 2: almost do a bit of an apology tour and try
42:42
Speaker 2: to appease those who are attacking her and really go
42:46
Speaker 2: hard left.
42:47
Speaker 4: Well, it'll be interesting to see. But yeah, this voter
42:50
Speaker 4: registration is definitely a surprise. Now, let's talk about one
42:54
Speaker 4: of the.
42:54
Speaker 2: Worst TV shows ever made, Just like that, Cynthia Nixon
42:58
Speaker 2: and Kristen Days they've reacted to its cancelation. This was,
43:03
Speaker 2: of course, a continuation of Sex and the City. David
43:08
Speaker 2: wrote this on Instagram. She said, I am profoundly sad.
43:12
Speaker 2: I love our whole beautiful cast and crew, four hundred
43:17
Speaker 2: artisans working hard on our show with deep love, and
43:21
Speaker 2: Nixon wrote it has been such a delight from start
43:24
Speaker 2: to finish. I will miss working with these people every
43:26
Speaker 2: day so incredibly much. But no, we will always be
43:30
Speaker 2: a part of each other's lives. Well that's all very nice, Kinsey,
43:34
Speaker 2: but the show was terrible. I only saw a few clips,
43:39
Speaker 2: but even the highlights that were trying to promote were putrid, unwatchable, basically.
43:46
Speaker 7: Yeah, there was a significant decline in readings from season
43:49
Speaker 7: one to season three, like by half, but the show
43:52
Speaker 7: got mixed response, leaning heavily towards the negative. Fans and
43:57
Speaker 7: critics had a light to say, especially about the way
44:00
Speaker 7: some of the characters and storylines were handled. The effort
44:03
Speaker 7: to diversify the cast sparked a ton of backlash and
44:07
Speaker 7: characters like what was it, Chidas? They them, Oh yeah,
44:14
Speaker 7: they insufferably woke, you know, I just it was. It's
44:19
Speaker 7: almost an insult to say that this was and in
44:21
Speaker 7: any way, shape or form associated with sex in the City.
44:24
Speaker 4: It's just insulting.
44:25
Speaker 2: And don't forget Rose O'Donnell appearing as a lesbian nun,
44:30
Speaker 2: having a virgin lesbian nun who had her first sexual
44:33
Speaker 2: experience with Cynthia Nixon's character an Amanda, not Amanda, what
44:38
Speaker 2: a Miranda? This is how a lot it's been since
44:41
Speaker 2: I've watched Sex in the City.
44:42
Speaker 4: They've kind of all blurred out, But.
44:43
Speaker 2: Sex and the City, the initial product was superb. You know,
44:48
Speaker 2: that was actually beautifully written and very entertaining.
44:52
Speaker 4: But they have just tried to milk every little bit
44:55
Speaker 4: out of this.
44:57
Speaker 2: Format and franchise, and it's now just Yea jumped the
45:01
Speaker 2: shark a long time ago, and they've just kept going. Finally,
45:04
Speaker 2: belatedly asked Ashton, Kutcher and Miller Kunis, they've been spotted
45:11
Speaker 2: dancing at a Backstreet Boys concert in Nevada. Let's have
45:16
Speaker 2: a look at this footage, Kinsey.
45:32
Speaker 4: What do you think about this? Is this the work of.
45:35
Speaker 2: Their PR crisis management team or just a spontaneous moment.
45:41
Speaker 7: I think they're genuinely this annoying. But earlier this year,
45:45
Speaker 7: Ashton was reportedly anxious about being linked to the never
45:48
Speaker 7: ending legal troubles of Shine Diddy Combs, his former friend.
45:52
Speaker 7: Having not been thrust into the chaos of that trial,
45:55
Speaker 7: he's likely feeling a bit relieved, you know, celebrating perhaps,
45:59
Speaker 7: But you know what, Nick Carter is on that stage,
46:02
Speaker 7: accused of some pretty horrible assaults himself, So maybe this
46:06
Speaker 7: isn't the right venue for Ashton. Who also defended Danny Masterson,
46:11
Speaker 7: who went to jail for rep But it is important
46:13
Speaker 7: to note that Nick Carter says he's innocent.
46:15
Speaker 4: But a Backstreet Boys.
46:16
Speaker 7: Concert sex assault. I feel like this isn't the venue, Reader.
46:21
Speaker 2: Yes, if it was the work of the PR team,
46:23
Speaker 2: they should have picked a different concert, definitely for this
46:26
Speaker 2: little carry on.
46:28
Speaker 4: Now.
46:28
Speaker 2: Another favorite couple of hours Alec and Hilario Baldwin. They've
46:33
Speaker 2: sparked speculation that an eighth baby maybe on the way
46:37
Speaker 2: after Hilaria posted a video of herself performing seductive dances
46:43
Speaker 2: for Alec. Oh gosh, don't play this footage. What more
46:46
Speaker 2: can you tell me, Kinsey? Actually, let's have a tiny
46:48
Speaker 2: bit of look of the footage.
46:50
Speaker 4: Just a small, small grab please, I.
47:06
Speaker 2: Said, a little grab that was way more than what
47:09
Speaker 2: we needed. Oh my god, Kinsey, please say something so
47:13
Speaker 2: we can move on.
47:15
Speaker 7: I feel like Reader and Kinzy need to start the
47:18
Speaker 7: petition to ensure that there's not an eath baby. I
47:21
Speaker 7: don't understand why the world needs an eighth boldwen Ilaria
47:26
Speaker 7: Baldwin baby. There's already too many out there. We don't
47:30
Speaker 7: even know what I mean they're going to have because.
47:33
Speaker 4: Hers are all over the place. Just please, for the
47:35
Speaker 4: love of God, you know what. No, No, we love babies.
47:39
Speaker 2: They can have as many babies, but we don't need
47:41
Speaker 2: to see every process, every step in the process on
47:45
Speaker 2: social media.
47:45
Speaker 4: Maybe some things could be private before you go.
47:50
Speaker 2: Jaguar CEO Adrian Martel has stepped down after the motor
47:54
Speaker 2: companies woke rebrand backfired massively. We mock this from we
48:00
Speaker 2: were ahead of the curve Kinsey and not a huge
48:04
Speaker 2: surprise that this did not resonate with Jaguar buyers who
48:07
Speaker 2: wants to be associated with the brand.
48:10
Speaker 4: Reseal that had going well.
48:13
Speaker 7: I saved this, I could have used it for this
48:16
Speaker 7: Sex and the City reboot, but go we go broke.
48:18
Speaker 7: I mean truly, so many people rejected this and thought,
48:22
Speaker 7: how how is this supposed to appeal to me as
48:25
Speaker 7: somebody that owns this car, but also how is it
48:28
Speaker 7: supposed to attract to new customers? Said nothing about cars.
48:32
Speaker 7: You know, we have got to stop trying to lecture
48:35
Speaker 7: people and we have got to start listening to our audiences.
48:39
Speaker 7: And perhaps that this is Jaguars first step because they're
48:43
Speaker 7: saying get this guy out of here, yep.
48:46
Speaker 2: Yep, that some of the sales figures that came out,
48:49
Speaker 2: particularly in the European market, astonishing that they've completely trashed
48:55
Speaker 2: their brand. Kinsey Schofield, thank you so much for your
48:58
Speaker 2: time tonight, and that's it for May.
49:01
Speaker 4: I'll say you at eleven tomorrow night. Up next, it's Newsnight.
