- 0:15Speaker 2: in DISARRAYUS costs blow up fourfold. The Panel will be
- 0:18Speaker 2: here to discuss that shortly the leading child gender physician
- 0:22Speaker 2: in the country cops heavy criticism in the family court.
- 0:25Speaker 2: Stepanie Bastian will join me to cover that unfolding story.
- 0:29Speaker 2: Kosher Gator will have the latest from the US, including

- 0:36Speaker 2: Stein will be here to celebrate Pride Months. You don't
- 0:40Speaker 2: want to miss that, and Left is losing It is
- 0:42Speaker 2: a little bit nausea inducing tonight. You've been warned.
- 0:46Speaker 3: This woman has been a heroin a hero for me
- 0:49Speaker 3: for so many years.
- 0:50Speaker 4: I've been myra from.
- 0:51Speaker 2: Macfarre But first joining me is the Panel News Corps
- 0:55Speaker 2: Senior writer Patrick Carline and research fellow and director of
- 0:58Speaker 2: the Institute of Public Affairs rul's program, Colleen Hearken. Let's
- 1:02Speaker 2: start with the Prime Minister's speech today. He addressed the
- 1:06Speaker 2: National Press Club in a speech that was filled with
- 1:09Speaker 2: all sorts of motherhood statements. Here is what I'm talking about.
- 1:13Speaker 5: Our vision is for a society that is a microcosm
- 1:17Speaker 5: for the world, where all are respected and valued, and
- 1:20Speaker 5: our diversity is recognized as a strength, where our international
- 1:26Speaker 5: relationships in the fastest growing region of the world in
- 1:30Speaker 5: human history benefited us, but also provide a platform for
- 1:35Speaker 5: us to play a positive and stabilizing global role in
- 1:40Speaker 5: uncertain times.
- 1:42Speaker 2: Colleen, all very warm and fuzzy. Diversity is our strength,
- 1:46Speaker 2: all the usual nonsense we've come to expect. Was there
- 1:51Speaker 2: much substance, No.
- 1:54Speaker 6: There was a lot of lofty motherhood statements. It was
- 1:57Speaker 6: like reading a Hallmark gift card early. You know, real
- 2:01Speaker 6: difference in people's lives, global vision and leadership. But the
- 2:05Speaker 6: problem with this is that it's not ambition, it's actually
- 2:08Speaker 6: negligence because the real difference so he can make in
- 2:11Speaker 6: people's lives is the cost of living.
- 2:13Speaker 2: And their energy bills.
- 2:15Speaker 6: And you know, the economy is driven by the cost
- 2:18Speaker 6: of a foundation is driven Sorry, the foundation of the
- 2:21Speaker 6: economy is driven by the cost.
- 2:22Speaker 2: Of our energy.
- 2:24Speaker 6: And he really should be focusing on what's broken at home.
- 2:28Speaker 6: You know, people are barely able to keep the lights on.
- 2:30Speaker 6: It was a sort of you know, like being at
- 2:33Speaker 6: an afternoon tea with the girls and a few glasses
- 2:35Speaker 6: of champagne and not really concentrating on what people need
- 2:38Speaker 6: him to do.
- 2:39Speaker 7: Well.
- 2:40Speaker 2: The Prime Minister's Patrick hoping to have some FaceTime with
- 2:44Speaker 2: President Trump. How is he going to explain Australia's reluctance
- 2:49Speaker 2: to increase defense spending So many of our allies have
- 2:53Speaker 2: and we seem to be a little bit racalcitrant saying no,
- 2:55Speaker 2: you're not going to tell us what to do.
- 2:57Speaker 8: Well, there is one theory of thought that you will
- 2:59Speaker 8: actually have that and then announce a rise in spending,
- 3:04Speaker 8: which politically might be savvy if you like. Look, we've
- 3:09Speaker 8: been like this country with the ostrich head in the
- 3:12Speaker 8: sand for so long we're basically we're just denied talking
- 3:17Speaker 8: about it or thinking about this fact that the world
- 3:19Speaker 8: has changed. We have to be able to defend ourselves.
- 3:22Speaker 8: And it's something that's become a separating soul over a
- 3:25Speaker 8: long time that we're in this position where we don't
- 3:27Speaker 8: spend any money on defense, we have no great plan
- 3:30Speaker 8: for spending money on defense, and we're decades behind where
- 3:34Speaker 8: we need to be in a quickly changing world.
- 3:37Speaker 2: Colleen the plan appears to be America will save us
- 3:40Speaker 2: if anything happens, and America is asking us to raise
- 3:44Speaker 2: defense spending to three three and a half percent of
- 3:47Speaker 2: GDP And if we're not willing to do that, can
- 3:51Speaker 2: we have this expectation they're going to come and save
- 3:53Speaker 2: the day.
- 3:54Speaker 6: Well why would they if we're not going to be
- 3:56Speaker 6: proper partners in this process, why would they come out
- 3:59Speaker 6: and help save us?
- 4:01Speaker 2: Absolutely, And just finally with the Prime Minister, he is
- 4:06Speaker 2: in a blessed position. He's just one in a landslide.
- 4:08Speaker 2: He's got the Greens in the Senate just he doesn't
- 4:12Speaker 2: even need to deal with the crossbenches. But Patrick, the
- 4:15Speaker 2: financial issues facing this country are real and a landslide
- 4:19Speaker 2: doesn't change that.
- 4:21Speaker 4: No, that's right.
- 4:21Speaker 8: Look, energy bills is the obvious place to go on this.
- 4:25Speaker 8: Energy bills are going up, cost of living is going up.
- 4:28Speaker 8: These are things that Australands have been feeling since twenty
- 4:30Speaker 8: twenty two, since Elbow was first elected. He's not really
- 4:33Speaker 8: saying anything that's addressing those issues in a massive way,
- 4:37Speaker 8: and I think that's why today's speech is so disappointing.
- 4:40Speaker 8: He does have a mandate, really, he has the numbers
- 4:42Speaker 8: in the House of Representatives, he can do things, and
- 4:45Speaker 8: basically today's speech suggests that he doesn't really need to
- 4:48Speaker 8: do much. He just wants to sort of dabble around
- 4:50Speaker 8: the edges.
- 4:51Speaker 1: Well.
- 4:51Speaker 2: On energy policy, let's check in on how the Abanza
- 4:55Speaker 2: government's Future Made in Australia plan is going and Intercontinential
- 5:00Speaker 2: Intercontinental Energy, the co owner of two massive green hydrogen
- 5:04Speaker 2: projects in Western Australia, has conceded initial costs for delivering
- 5:09Speaker 2: green energy from these facilities is going to be between
- 5:12Speaker 2: eight and eleven dollars a kilogram. Eventually, they hope that
- 5:16Speaker 2: falls to about four do dollars a kilogram, But according
- 5:19Speaker 2: to MSD market analysts, sol cabinic hydrogen prices need to
- 5:24Speaker 2: be below two dollars a kilogram to become close to
- 5:27Speaker 2: competitive with other energy sources. Eight to eleven dollars a
- 5:31Speaker 2: kilogram equates to over sixty dollars a giga jewel, which
- 5:36Speaker 2: no major energy user can afford. Meanwhile, the average cost
- 5:41Speaker 2: of natural gas patrick in Australia is just under twelve
- 5:44Speaker 2: dollars per giga jewel. This is again one of the
- 5:50Speaker 2: prime ministers the Labor parties dreams about green hydrogen. We're
- 5:55Speaker 2: going to become this renewable superpower, and the evidence so
- 6:00Speaker 2: far is not there. Our prices are going up, and
- 6:03Speaker 2: the more we invest in this sector, the more prices increase.
- 6:07Speaker 8: Look, countries and energy companies all over the world have
- 6:11Speaker 8: looked at green hydrogen. They've tried to make it work.
- 6:14Speaker 8: It's simply not viable at the cost that it comes at.
- 6:18Speaker 8: At the moment, the technology doesn't exist. And the fact
- 6:22Speaker 8: that green hydrogen is a pillar of our energy future
- 6:25Speaker 8: according to this government is hilarious and it's really sad
- 6:29Speaker 8: because it doesn't exist yet. No, it's not on the table.
- 6:33Speaker 8: It's not an alternative, and it can't be an alternative
- 6:36Speaker 8: until the technology exists.
- 6:38Speaker 2: Yeah, they're obsessed with green hydrogen, Colleen, but we've got
- 6:41Speaker 2: plenty of gas, coal, uranium, all very reliable sources of
- 6:46Speaker 2: energy that were not properly using.
- 6:48Speaker 6: Yeah, and this is just recklessness, reader, because it's four
- 6:50Speaker 6: to five times the cost of the gas and they're
- 6:53Speaker 6: wanting to call this a plan for the future. Can
- 6:55Speaker 6: you imagine as CEO announcing to the shareholders that we're
- 6:58Speaker 6: going to invest ten dollars and maybe in twenty years
- 7:03Speaker 6: time we might get a return on investment. You know,
- 7:05Speaker 6: it's not an investment, it's ideological indulgence.
- 7:08Speaker 2: It is so ideological. This is they've just completely abandoned
- 7:12Speaker 2: reality and ideology is ruling the day. Now to Channel
- 7:17Speaker 2: ten's decision to act its flagship current affairs program, the
- 7:21Speaker 2: Project that's been on air for sixteen years, our colleague
- 7:25Speaker 2: Steve Price is defending the unwatchable lefty talk Fairsie has
- 7:29Speaker 2: been the sole conservative voice, some would say token conservative
- 7:34Speaker 2: voice on the program, and he writes in the Herald
- 7:36Speaker 2: Sun that people dancing on the grave of tens the
- 7:39Speaker 2: project are ignorant. It means that virtually all live television
- 7:43Speaker 2: bar some AFL panel shows and some comedy programs and
- 7:46Speaker 2: the six PM news are now run out of Sydney.
- 7:50Speaker 2: Melbourne is the big loser today and the city will
- 7:53Speaker 2: never get back what it had ever Again. Colleen, I
- 7:57Speaker 2: don't think the whole Melbourne Sydney rivalry comes into this.
- 8:02Speaker 2: That's not why people are mocking this program.
- 8:04Speaker 6: Yeah, so I have to confess I've never actually watched
- 8:08Speaker 6: Project for sixty Yeah, I've never actually watched it for
- 8:13Speaker 6: the reasons that you just said. You know, it's a
- 8:16Speaker 6: lobsided not balanced perspective of the day's news. But to
- 8:21Speaker 6: Steve Price's comment about business leaving Melbourne, IPA research will
- 8:26Speaker 6: tell you that there's one hundred and thirty thousand businesses
- 8:29Speaker 6: have left Victoria in the last year. So it's not
- 8:32Speaker 6: just something like the project. It's not just this sort
- 8:35Speaker 6: of lack of reflective of what people want to see
- 8:39Speaker 6: in here. There's an undercurrent of businesses leaving Melbourne regardless
- 8:43Speaker 6: of the project.
- 8:45Speaker 2: Wow, one hundred and thirty thousand. What is the predominant
- 8:49Speaker 2: reason that's happening.
- 8:50Speaker 6: Well, red tape, difficulty of doing business in Victoria, all
- 8:54Speaker 6: of those sort of economic pressures.
- 8:56Speaker 2: State taxes were correct at all. Patrick, I can't believe
- 9:00Speaker 2: Colleen has not watched any project in sixteen years. Surely
- 9:04Speaker 2: you've caught an episode here and there.
- 9:06Speaker 8: Not for many years, I think, to be fair, it
- 9:08Speaker 8: is aimed at the audience far younger than us.
- 9:11Speaker 2: It was sort of sixteen years ago you were that young.
- 9:14Speaker 8: That's true, okay, But it always seemed that there was
- 9:17Speaker 8: always a hint of sanctimony in the messaging of it.
- 9:20Speaker 2: Wasn't that That's what I did like, it was the
- 9:23Speaker 2: mix of sanctimony arrogance mixed with stupidity. I mean, if
- 9:27Speaker 2: you have the sanctimony without the stupidity, or the stupidity
- 9:31Speaker 2: without the sanctimony, could work. But is it sad though
- 9:35Speaker 2: for Melbourne that it's no longer here?
- 9:37Speaker 8: Look, I think Price you made a better point when
- 9:39Speaker 8: he talked about panel shows being balanced. You don't see
- 9:43Speaker 8: that on the ABC as a starting point. I mean,
- 9:46Speaker 8: I always grow up to think that good TV was
- 9:48Speaker 8: sort of disagreement and conflict and passionate opinions and heavy
- 9:53Speaker 8: debating if you like, And you don't see a lot
- 9:56Speaker 8: of that anymore. The middle has been lost on TV.
- 9:59Speaker 2: But I I think the panel provided that. It really didn't.
- 10:03Speaker 2: But I mean it is commercial TV. They're not obliged
- 10:08Speaker 2: to have that balance. They don't have the charter like
- 10:11Speaker 2: the ABC do. And here the ABC never live up
- 10:15Speaker 2: to that. Now this is only in Victoria story another
- 10:20Speaker 2: disappointment for the Victorian taxpayer. The Labor government here have
- 10:24Speaker 2: spent two hundred and fifty million dollars on a high
- 10:28Speaker 2: speed express busway from Doncaster to Melbourne that was supposed
- 10:32Speaker 2: to be high speed as the name suggests, cut down
- 10:35Speaker 2: travel times. But despite those promises from Premier Allen. It
- 10:40Speaker 2: seems like this bus trip could take even longer, Colleen,
- 10:45Speaker 2: because instead of one hundred kilometer speed limits, we might
- 10:48Speaker 2: be down to as low as sixty in sections. So
- 10:52Speaker 2: we've spent two hundred and fifty million dollars to have
- 10:55Speaker 2: a longer bus trip to the city from Doncasters.
- 10:58Speaker 6: It's like, well, it's like a Monty Python episode, isn't
- 11:01Speaker 6: it It is. It's ridiculous, And apparently, of course there's
- 11:05Speaker 6: issues with the trains as well.
- 11:07Speaker 2: There's always issues with the trade.
- 11:09Speaker 6: That the new trains don't actually fit on the gauge
- 11:11Speaker 6: of the new infrastructure that's been built. So it's just
- 11:15Speaker 6: a crazy situation and like an extreme waste of taxpace
- 11:19Speaker 6: money not doing the planning that's required.
- 11:21Speaker 2: Patrick the committee. Comedic value aside, this is a pretty
- 11:26Speaker 2: massive stuff up, two hundred and fifty million dollars and
- 11:29Speaker 2: very questionable value.
- 11:30Speaker 8: It's not funny anymore. I mean, the Northeast links a
- 11:33Speaker 8: little funny. The budgets are blown out. I drive through
- 11:36Speaker 8: there going to and from home from time to time.
- 11:39Speaker 8: It's just like a bomb site. It's been like that
- 11:41Speaker 8: for years. And the idea that all that all that
- 11:44Speaker 8: waiting in traffic jams is going to amount to something
- 11:47Speaker 8: that's not even as good as what it was before.
- 11:50Speaker 8: In this context is so galling. No, it's not funny anymore.
- 11:54Speaker 2: It's a little bit funny, but you're not for the taxpayers.
- 11:57Speaker 2: I've got to admit it before you go. The United
- 12:00Speaker 2: Youth Bradge has made some unbelievable claims saying that Queenslanders
- 12:06Speaker 2: young Queenslanders can't have a night out or see their
- 12:09Speaker 2: friends because they're terrified they're being targeted by their government's
- 12:13Speaker 2: adult crime at Old Time youth crime crackdown. I think
- 12:17Speaker 2: you're only targeted if you're breaking the law. The UN's
- 12:21Speaker 2: got no idea. They've tried to dictate to the Queensland
- 12:24Speaker 2: government what to do. Premier Kristap fully had no time
- 12:27Speaker 2: for that, and they're continuing on with their campaign.
- 12:32Speaker 6: Right behind Christophully on this one. People have a right
- 12:35Speaker 6: to feel safe when they go out, and I don't
- 12:37Speaker 6: know what these people think that they do that they
- 12:39Speaker 6: go out, that they can't just go out and have
- 12:41Speaker 6: a good time unless.
- 12:42Speaker 1: They break the law.
- 12:42Speaker 6: I mean, it's an absurd sort of proposition to say
- 12:45Speaker 6: that they're being targeted, you know, and Victoria is having
- 12:48Speaker 6: a similar scenario about youth crime, and I know that
- 12:50Speaker 6: the Coalition are talking about break what does it breach?
- 12:53Speaker 6: Bail do jail time. It's the same scenario. I think
- 12:55Speaker 6: people have fed up with not being able to live
- 12:58Speaker 6: their civil life in a comfortable, expected way to be safe.
- 13:01Speaker 2: Patrick, you've got teenage children. Are they scared to be
- 13:05Speaker 2: out and about in Queensland if you're out there for
- 13:07Speaker 2: a holiday.
- 13:08Speaker 8: Look, I'm pretty sure this didn't resonate anywhere, but especially
- 13:11Speaker 8: as Colin was saying, in Victoria. I mean the premier
- 13:14Speaker 8: up there in Queensland has talked about adult crime, adult time.
- 13:17Speaker 8: Wouldn't we love to have that down here?
- 13:19Speaker 2: Oh?
- 13:19Speaker 8: Yes, But I do invite the author of that report
- 13:22Speaker 8: to come down and go shopping in Victoria and perhaps
- 13:25Speaker 8: we'll have some machette wielding years running past.
- 13:28Speaker 2: And it'll be very enriching for them, I'm sure, Patrick,
- 13:32Speaker 2: Carli and Colleen Harkin thank you so much for your
- 13:34Speaker 2: time tonight. Now, as reported by The Australian newspaper, Australia's
- 13:38Speaker 2: foremost gender medicine expert and the lead author of the
- 13:41Speaker 2: nation's guidelines on so called gender firming care Michelle Telfer
- 13:46Speaker 2: was heavily criticized by family called Judge Andrew Strom for
- 13:49Speaker 2: giving misleading evidence in support of a mother who wanted
- 13:53Speaker 2: her child to be prescribed puberty blockers. Now this judgment
- 13:57Speaker 2: has again called into question the integrity treatment of gender
- 14:01Speaker 2: confused kids. Judge Andrew Strum in this case strip the
- 14:05Speaker 2: mother of custody and effectively block the twelve year old
- 14:08Speaker 2: from accessing these sort of gender treatments, but also criticize
- 14:13Speaker 2: the Royal Children's Hospital here in Melbourne and its gender clinic.
- 14:17Speaker 2: The Australian also reports that Justice Strum question the Australian
- 14:21Speaker 2: Standards of Care and Treatment Guidelines for trans and gender
- 14:25Speaker 2: diverse Children and Adolescents authored by Professor Telfer for not
- 14:30Speaker 2: recognizing children may not be capable of making life altering
- 14:35Speaker 2: medical decisions about their gender identity. Is said, it is
- 14:38Speaker 2: concerning that an oddly binary approach is adopted in relation
- 14:43Speaker 2: to children, especially of the age of the child the
- 14:46Speaker 2: subject of these proceedings. That is, to affirm unreservedly those
- 14:51Speaker 2: who present with concerns regarding their gender, brooking no questioning thereof.
- 14:57Speaker 2: He wrote in the judgment, the case of the mother
- 14:59Speaker 2: is is that because the child says so, the child
- 15:03Speaker 2: is and must unquestionably be affirmed as being female in
- 15:08Speaker 2: gender identity. However, that overlooks the obvious, namely that the
- 15:13Speaker 2: child is still a child, and not even if it
- 15:16Speaker 2: matters a teenager. Joining me now is Women's Forum Australia's
- 15:21Speaker 2: head of Advocacies, Stephanie Bastian and steph everything I read there,
- 15:26Speaker 2: the comments from the judge just seem like pure common sense.
- 15:31Speaker 2: But it's common sense we have not heard in the
- 15:34Speaker 2: family court on these sort of issues. How significant is
- 15:38Speaker 2: this case?
- 15:39Speaker 9: This is the most significant development so far. Michelle Telfer
- 15:43Speaker 9: is the head of medicine at the Royal Children's Hospital.
- 15:46Speaker 9: She's also, as you mentioned, the author of the so
- 15:48Speaker 9: called standards of care, and the judge has delivered a
- 15:53Speaker 9: damning appraisal of her standards of care and the treatments.
- 15:56Speaker 9: It's very clear that these treatments are not evidence based,
- 16:00Speaker 9: they are based on ideology. Children can't consent to these treatments.
- 16:04Speaker 9: The side effects, which include things like infertility, cancer, damage
- 16:09Speaker 9: to bone structure are horrendous. They cannot consent, and quite
- 16:14Speaker 9: often also children who are struggling with gender dysphoria also
- 16:18Speaker 9: struggle with other chomorbid mental health issues, including anxiety, depression
- 16:23Speaker 9: and autism, and arguably adults young adults with these mental
- 16:28Speaker 9: health issues also can't consent, which we will see. There's
- 16:32Speaker 9: a case being run in the Supreme Court in Victoria
- 16:34Speaker 9: with mel Jeffries. Will know where that sits in due time.
- 16:38Speaker 9: But the fact of the matter is you're dealing with
- 16:39Speaker 9: bunderable people who cannot consent and the treatments that they
- 16:42Speaker 9: are being prescribed lack the evidence, which we know this
- 16:45Speaker 9: should be enough for Health Minister Mark Butler and Prime
- 16:49Speaker 9: Minister Anthony Alberesi to intervene immediately to halt these treatments
- 16:53Speaker 9: and to hold a national review rather than the soft
- 16:56Speaker 9: approach that they're taking at the moment.
- 17:01Speaker 2: Well, if it wasn't for this case and this course
- 17:05Speaker 2: of action being challenged in the courts, that twelve year
- 17:08Speaker 2: old child would be on puberty blockers right now, and again,
- 17:12Speaker 2: how can a twelve year old consent to that when
- 17:15Speaker 2: the consequences can be quite serious, and when we know
- 17:19Speaker 2: of so many cases where these gender treatments have had
- 17:23Speaker 2: all sorts of medical consequences that the child will just
- 17:27Speaker 2: have no understanding of at that age. Now nine newspapers
- 17:33Speaker 2: columnist Peter Fitzsimon's The Pirate has declared shame on those
- 17:38Speaker 2: who whip up hate against trans athletes for clicks and votes.
- 17:43Speaker 2: This is an article he wrote recently where he said
- 17:46Speaker 2: the nastiest and most ruthless purveyors of hate bait continually
- 17:51Speaker 2: push out a catastrophically cliched warning that the sports world
- 17:55Speaker 2: is a wash, with swarthy truck drivers wearing tutus and
- 17:59Speaker 2: time's storming and swarming their way through girls' changing rooms
- 18:04Speaker 2: and fields to lear and sneer their way to every
- 18:07Speaker 2: trophy going. The truth of the matter that we are
- 18:11Speaker 2: talking about mostly just a handful of gentle souls with
- 18:15Speaker 2: the extraordinary courage to live as what they believe is
- 18:19Speaker 2: their true gender and want to be included in sport.
- 18:23Speaker 2: Doesn't rate as hate bait, So forget it. Your job
- 18:26Speaker 2: is to whip it up. That's quite an amusing, unintentionally
- 18:31Speaker 2: amusing little die tribe their Stephanie. But I think the
- 18:35Speaker 2: Pirate is not happy with you or me, it seems.
- 18:41Speaker 9: Look, I just hope female athletes aren't paying attention to
- 18:44Speaker 9: this latest dribble from Pirate Pete but it just shows
- 18:47Speaker 9: how out of touch he is. He is a man
- 18:50Speaker 9: telling women who are talking about their sex base rights
- 18:53Speaker 9: that they should be quiet to protect the feelings of
- 18:56Speaker 9: these so called trans athletes. A young woman from Victoria
- 19:00Speaker 9: called into Ben Bordham's show this week and she talked
- 19:03Speaker 9: about her experience of being confronted with a transathlete and
- 19:07Speaker 9: I want to share it because I think it's very relevant.
- 19:09Speaker 9: But she is five foot to four. He was six
- 19:12Speaker 9: point six foot two, and she talked about being confronted
- 19:16Speaker 9: with him in the change room and her fear of
- 19:18Speaker 9: being crushed into the pavement in the event of an accident,
- 19:22Speaker 9: and she talked about the fact that the violation that
- 19:26Speaker 9: she felt when his body brushed against hers to block
- 19:28Speaker 9: her from shooting a goal. She is representative of many
- 19:31Speaker 9: girls around this country and Pirate Pete has no concern
- 19:36Speaker 9: or consideration for what these girls are going through. And
- 19:39Speaker 9: it is absolutely ridiculous that he is so out of
- 19:42Speaker 9: touch that he would mock these women and the very
- 19:45Speaker 9: real plight that they are fighting but also fighting to
- 19:48Speaker 9: be able to speak in public about.
- 19:52Speaker 2: Well, this is I think what the consequence of this
- 19:55Speaker 2: article is those of us who have been reporting on this,
- 19:59Speaker 2: and I've been writing about it for a decade before
- 20:02Speaker 2: he was a big issue. I'm not going to be silenced,
- 20:05Speaker 2: but I do worry whether young girls, women who are
- 20:09Speaker 2: competing in sports where there are men present, men who
- 20:13Speaker 2: identify as women present, whether they're going to be discouraged
- 20:17Speaker 2: from speaking because they're being called nasty and spreading hate
- 20:21Speaker 2: bait and what are the other hyperbolic language the pirate
- 20:26Speaker 2: used there? And that's really the effect of this activism
- 20:31Speaker 2: from the left is to silence women who are being
- 20:35Speaker 2: impacted by these men.
- 20:40Speaker 9: Absolutely, and I think I'm fearful that that is the
- 20:42Speaker 9: intent from Pete's article. He is trying to continue that
- 20:47Speaker 9: culture of silencing people who oppose this ideology, and he
- 20:50Speaker 9: will do it at all costs, with no regard to
- 20:53Speaker 9: the women and girls that he is impacting.
- 20:58Speaker 2: Absolutely, Stephanie Bastian, thanks for your time. Still to come.
- 21:02Speaker 2: Left is Losing at plus the latest from the US,
- 21:05Speaker 2: including the violent fi Left protests in La Kosher Gator
- 21:09Speaker 2: as the details. You're watching the Reader Patty Show, and
- 21:20Speaker 2: it's time for Lefties Losing it, and we will get
- 21:23Speaker 2: back to the demented Left's latest round of riots shortly,
- 21:27Speaker 2: but first the Tony Awards were on overnight. You didn't
- 21:31Speaker 2: know if near the did I until this dude caught
- 21:33Speaker 2: my eye on the red carpet. Stunning and brave. That's
- 21:46Speaker 2: Cole Escola, who beat out the likes of George Clooney
- 21:49Speaker 2: and John Michael Hill to win the Tony for Best
- 21:52Speaker 2: Leading Actor. And the media were of course keen to
- 21:56Speaker 2: trumpet the fact that he was the first openly non
- 21:59Speaker 2: by artists to win Leading Actor. Yes, a groundbreaking night,
- 22:04Speaker 2: and the publications were also keen to mangle the English
- 22:08Speaker 2: language to respect a scholars. They them pronouns. USA Today
- 22:14Speaker 2: reported they are now the first non binary performer to
- 22:18Speaker 2: win in that Tony category. I mean they are they
- 22:21Speaker 2: multiple people. It was a piece just rendered nonsensical with
- 22:25Speaker 2: deliberate grammar crimes. And let's not forget the non binary
- 22:30Speaker 2: dude here says he prefers they then pronouns, but was
- 22:33Speaker 2: nevertheless very happy to be nominated and win the very
- 22:38Speaker 2: gendered Best Leading Actor award.
- 22:44Speaker 10: All the scholer if you want to thank the other nominees,
- 22:49Speaker 10: George and John and Harry and Daniel and Louis. It's
- 22:53Speaker 10: an honor to be in your company, the most important
- 22:55Speaker 10: people in my life, my friends who are here tonight,
- 22:58Speaker 10: Jeffrey jen Ben, everyone watching at home, Christian Dakota, the
- 23:03Speaker 10: whole Gang, John Claudia Oh and Tibo from Grinder.
- 23:07Speaker 2: Can't forget Tbo from Grind. I here's fun na less
- 23:11Speaker 2: one is this duo the Queens of Performative Caring, as
- 23:15Speaker 2: Douglas Murray would call them, And gosh, don't they love
- 23:18Speaker 2: each other? Or at least they pretend to get your
- 23:20Speaker 2: buckets ready? This is nausea inducing.
- 23:24Speaker 3: This woman has been a heroine, a hero for me
- 23:27Speaker 3: for so many years I've admired from Afar, and this
- 23:30Speaker 3: is the first time I've had the opportunity to sit
- 23:33Speaker 3: down and have a conversation because she's written a book
- 23:36Speaker 3: called A Different Kind of Power, And I love that
- 23:39Speaker 3: you call it that because the different kind of power
- 23:41Speaker 3: is kindness.
- 23:43Speaker 1: Absolutely.
- 23:44Speaker 11: It's all those things that you think are weaknesses or
- 23:47Speaker 11: a taught are weaknesses. Empathy, sensitivity, self doubt and humility.
- 23:53Speaker 4: That's powerful.
- 23:54Speaker 3: What I admire is that you're a Prime Minister and
- 23:57Speaker 3: you made a decision that I am going to have
- 24:00Speaker 3: kindness as a principle from my administration.
- 24:04Speaker 2: Told you it was gross, but we'll get through it together.
- 24:07Speaker 2: It's okay. What did zindata and say? This is all
- 24:10Speaker 2: about kindness? Empathy, sensitivity, self doubt, and humility are just
- 24:16Speaker 2: like this.
- 24:17Speaker 11: Breaking the rules could kill someone close to you to
- 24:21Speaker 11: maintain compliance, and there will be spot check's implants for
- 24:25Speaker 11: anyone who is not vaccinated right now. Unless you choose
- 24:29Speaker 11: to be, you will not be able to enjoy the
- 24:31Speaker 11: freedoms of other New Zealanders if you don't comply with
- 24:34Speaker 11: the rules, who run the risk of forcing us to
- 24:36Speaker 11: extend the period of lockdown. For that information, do feel
- 24:40Speaker 11: free to visit at any time to clarify any roamor
- 24:43Speaker 11: you may hear COVID nineteen dot govt dot NZ. Otherwise
- 24:48Speaker 11: dismiss anything else. We will continue to be your single
- 24:52Speaker 11: source of.
- 24:52Speaker 2: Truth, single source of truth. Just in this truth not
- 24:56Speaker 2: the truth truth. Yes, the former Prime min through New Zealand,
- 25:00Speaker 2: who impose some of the most illiberal, inhumane lockdowns anywhere
- 25:05Speaker 2: in the world. She even banned pregnant New Zealand women
- 25:08Speaker 2: from returning home, even from a war zone. This poor
- 25:12Speaker 2: lass had to seek help from the Taliban because Jaisinda
- 25:15Speaker 2: Adurn was too busy playing the media's favorite leftist darling
- 25:19Speaker 2: to take care of her own citizens. She's the leader
- 25:22Speaker 2: who preaches about love, tolerance and kindness, but oversaw the
- 25:26Speaker 2: rise of huge societal problems in New Zealand, from homelessness
- 25:30Speaker 2: to race relations. Remember when she promised shelter for every
- 25:35Speaker 2: homeless New Zealander. But because she's an inept clown and
- 25:40Speaker 2: not really interested in exercising kindness or sound policy, the
- 25:44Speaker 2: problem exploded under her watch. Just a couple of years
- 25:48Speaker 2: after that promise. Well, there were record numbers waiting for
- 25:52Speaker 2: public housing record and that was before COVID hit Well done,
- 25:56Speaker 2: Jacinda a hero? Oprah called her, no, not a hero,
- 26:01Speaker 2: a terrible leader who made life harder for ordinary New Zealanders.
- 26:05Speaker 2: And you quit before that could boot out. But here
- 26:09Speaker 2: she is with Oprah rewriting history.
- 26:12Speaker 3: Did you have a kindness gathering of faminess?
- 26:15Speaker 12: Do you know?
- 26:15Speaker 11: We'd spend a lot of time looking at what was
- 26:18Speaker 11: happening in New Zealand. And it's not just about what
- 26:22Speaker 11: you do when you're in government, it's.
- 26:23Speaker 1: About the way you do it.
- 26:25Speaker 11: And I felt we've lost their humanity and we were
- 26:28Speaker 11: there to serve people and kindness was a really simple
- 26:31Speaker 11: way to embody there. So no, we definitely didn't. We
- 26:34Speaker 11: didn't do a huddle, we didn't workshop it.
- 26:37Speaker 10: It was instinctive.
- 26:38Speaker 11: But I think it was what we needed at the time,
- 26:40Speaker 11: and I think it's what the world needs right now
- 26:42Speaker 11: as well.
- 26:43Speaker 2: I do too, a different kind of power. I need
- 26:46Speaker 2: that bucket now to La where the mostly peaceful protests continue.
- 26:58Speaker 2: And as you saw there, they continue. You to fly
- 27:00Speaker 2: the Mexican flag. They loot, burn and write and keep
- 27:05Speaker 2: waving that flag. And they're still burning the American flag.
- 27:35Speaker 2: They're not only burning the American flag, but they are
- 27:39Speaker 2: spitting on it. Just vile, vile, anti American crims, destructive creams.
- 27:45Speaker 2: And if you want to know why the National Guard
- 27:47Speaker 2: was called in, well it may have something to do
- 27:49Speaker 2: with cops being attacked like this.
- 28:00Speaker 10: Oh my god, you got.
- 28:08Speaker 2: Yeah, that looks like attempted murder. But the mayor, Karen Bass,
- 28:12Speaker 2: is more concerned with ice. She wants immigration officials to
- 28:16Speaker 2: stop doing their job administration.
- 28:19Speaker 8: And if you can speak to MO when.
- 28:22Speaker 13: I would say stop the reids, stop the reeds, period,
- 28:25Speaker 13: I would say, give the power back to our governor,
- 28:28Speaker 13: and if we need the National Guard, we can do
- 28:31Speaker 13: it in the numerous circumstances, which is the request is
- 28:34Speaker 13: made local and the governor decides or not to grant
- 28:37Speaker 13: that to our city.
- 28:39Speaker 2: And it's not just the mayor. Democrats across the US
- 28:42Speaker 2: are disgracing themselves by standing with the lawless thugs rather
- 28:46Speaker 2: than the rule of law. His Democrat Congresswoman Promila Jayapa.
- 28:51Speaker 14: Donald Trump calling out the National Guard unconstitutionally, illegally without
- 28:57Speaker 14: the governor's authorize approval. As Heimi said, that's something that
- 29:03Speaker 14: has not happened since nineteen sixty five, and it's hard
- 29:07Speaker 14: to imagine that this time the National Guard were sent
- 29:11Speaker 14: out to attack protesters that were exercising their constitutional obligation.
- 29:17Speaker 2: Constitutional obligation. Yes, she said that these people are nuts
- 29:22Speaker 2: and they are determined to lose. This issue is a
- 29:25Speaker 2: loser for the Democrats every day of the weeken twice
- 29:28Speaker 2: on Sundays. But Congresswoman Jaya Powell wants to see more
- 29:32Speaker 2: of this craziness. It's apparently good for the country.
- 29:35Speaker 15: It is actually in the interest of all American people
- 29:40Speaker 15: to stand up for these rates.
- 29:42Speaker 10: They know they know that dividing us is what will.
- 29:47Speaker 4: Make them strong.
- 29:48Speaker 2: She's as mad as a cut snake, and so is
- 29:51Speaker 2: this dude, Senator Chris Murphy.
- 29:53Speaker 16: Obviously, this is a moment where we have to be
- 29:55Speaker 16: on the streets all over the country to protest what's
- 29:58Speaker 16: happening to our immigrant community, but more broadly, to protest
- 30:02Speaker 16: what's happening to our democracy. This is the most corrupt
- 30:04Speaker 16: administration in the history of the country, and we are
- 30:08Speaker 16: going to rise to this moment by being out there
- 30:10Speaker 16: on the streets. But you know, ultimately, I think the
- 30:15Speaker 16: country sees what Donald Trump is trying to do here.
- 30:17Speaker 16: He's looking for a fight. There's nothing in what he
- 30:20Speaker 16: is doing that is about peace or about restoring order.
- 30:23Speaker 2: Donald Trump started the fight. Was he the one who
- 30:26Speaker 2: told these thugs to attack police, burn cars, loot stores
- 30:30Speaker 2: right across LA And Trump's called in the National Guard
- 30:34Speaker 2: not to restore order, but to continue the fight. Genius
- 30:39Speaker 2: work there from the Democrat on MSNBC. Why don't you
- 30:43Speaker 2: try saying that to LAPD chief Jim McDonald, who fears
- 30:47Speaker 2: cops will lose their lives in this violence.
- 30:50Speaker 17: This violence that I've seen is disgusting. It's escalated now
- 30:54Speaker 17: since the beginning of this incident. What we saw the
- 30:57Speaker 17: first night was bad we've seen subsequent to that is
- 31:01Speaker 17: getting increasingly worse and more violent. Tonight, we had individuals
- 31:06Speaker 17: out there shooting commercial grade fireworks at our offsters that
- 31:10Speaker 17: can kill you. And we have adapted our tactics to
- 31:13Speaker 17: be able to have a chance, to be able to
- 31:16Speaker 17: take these people into custody and to be able to
- 31:19Speaker 17: hold them accountable.
- 31:20Speaker 2: Let's bring in Scott News contributor Kosher, Geeta Kosher. The
- 31:23Speaker 2: Democrats are playing with fire here. Excuse the pod, but
- 31:27Speaker 2: this is just dangerous territory for them.
- 31:30Speaker 1: It really is.
- 31:31Speaker 18: The shift in public support for getting illegal immigrants out,
- 31:35Speaker 18: and especially criminal illegal immigrants, which is where the administration's
- 31:38Speaker 18: focus is and where those initial people in LA were apprehended,
- 31:42Speaker 18: has been unlike anything I've seen in terms of just
- 31:44Speaker 18: even eight ten years ago, the public support was not there,
- 31:47Speaker 18: and how it is completely shifted by double digits in
- 31:51Speaker 18: the column of get these people out, because you don't
- 31:53Speaker 18: have a country if you just allow ramp into illegal immigration,
- 31:56Speaker 18: criminal or otherwise. So it is losing the only thing
- 31:58Speaker 18: I can think of is Chris Murphy, Senator from Connecticut promilogae.
- 32:02Speaker 1: Apart from the state of Washington, these are very.
- 32:04Speaker 18: Blue sapphire blue states, and maybe they still believe that
- 32:08Speaker 18: their constituency over their response to these comments, like you know,
- 32:12Speaker 18: I'm here to defend democracy and role in this together,
- 32:14Speaker 18: and that's why they're doing that. But when you look
- 32:16Speaker 18: at just the global or the national picture, it doesn't
- 32:19Speaker 18: make sense.
- 32:19Speaker 1: And I think they're going to pay a price.
- 32:21Speaker 2: I think they are. And what you said is one
- 32:24Speaker 2: hundred percent accurate. The polls show that Donald Trump is
- 32:28Speaker 2: on a solid ground when it comes to his immigration
- 32:31Speaker 2: policy and the deportation plan as well. Let's check in
- 32:34Speaker 2: with CNN for the latest data. This must have.
- 32:37Speaker 12: Hurt, you know, if we just take a look at
- 32:39Speaker 12: the baseline numbers here. This is Trump's net approval rating
- 32:42Speaker 12: on immigration. It's gone up like a rocket compare now
- 32:46Speaker 12: versus eight years ago during Trump's first term. It is
- 32:48Speaker 12: his top issue so far. And the reason it is
- 32:50Speaker 12: his top issue is because take a look at the
- 32:53Speaker 12: individual nuggets in here. Why are people approving of Trump
- 32:57Speaker 12: on immigration, approve of these different immigrans actions well, Trump's
- 33:01Speaker 12: administration's program to deport those here illegally. Look at this
- 33:04Speaker 12: fifty four percent approval. How about agents searching your hometown
- 33:08Speaker 12: for those that they think are here illegally again, positive
- 33:11Speaker 12: territory here above fifty percent for Donald Trump. So it's
- 33:14Speaker 12: not just on the broad issue of immigration where Trump
- 33:17Speaker 12: is doing well. It's on the specifics. When you dive
- 33:20Speaker 12: into the issues, Trump is above fifty percent and his
- 33:23Speaker 12: actions are above fifty percent.
- 33:26Speaker 2: Now, what is really interesting is that this is an
- 33:28Speaker 2: issue that Democrats used to win on. No more, and
- 33:32Speaker 2: it seems that Dems are slow learners.
- 33:35Speaker 12: The Democrats don't have a clue on the issue of immigration.
- 33:38Speaker 12: I mean, you could just take it here closer to
- 33:40Speaker 12: trust more and immigration. Democrats versus Republicans. Got three different
- 33:44Speaker 12: polls for you across the board. They all tell the
- 33:47Speaker 12: same story. Republicans lead on the issue of immigration. You
- 33:51Speaker 12: see it here, CBS plus six, you see it here,
- 33:53Speaker 12: CNN plus six, you see it here, IPSOS even bigger
- 33:56Speaker 12: plus nineteen. No matter what poll you look at, no
- 33:59Speaker 12: matter what which way you cut it, the American public
- 34:02Speaker 12: is with the Republicans. The American public is with Donald Trump,
- 34:05Speaker 12: and to a much greater extent than they were in
- 34:07Speaker 12: term number one. And it's not just on the broad
- 34:09Speaker 12: issue of immigration. It's on the specifics as well, in
- 34:12Speaker 12: which the American public is with Donald Trump and the Republicans,
- 34:15Speaker 12: and that is why Donald Trump is eager to take
- 34:18Speaker 12: on this fight.
- 34:19Speaker 2: The data there is pretty clear. It's pretty devastating for
- 34:23Speaker 2: the Democrats and this despite the media coverage, and the
- 34:26Speaker 2: media coverage we're getting in this country is being quite
- 34:29Speaker 2: appalling and misleading. But that's the state of play. Could
- 34:34Speaker 2: these protests extend to other parts of the country. Could
- 34:37Speaker 2: we be looking at BLM two point zero?
- 34:40Speaker 18: You know, that's the question everybody's asking, And sadly, rightly
- 34:43Speaker 18: or wrongly, a lot of people wonder whether these are
- 34:46Speaker 18: one hundred percent organic where there are agitators in the mix,
- 34:49Speaker 18: given they're losing on the issue politically, and I'm sure
- 34:51Speaker 18: it's hurting the media. Although I think Harry Enton is
- 34:54Speaker 18: a secret Trump supporter, and those polling segments have become us.
- 34:57Speaker 2: He knows to create the numbers. The numbers are the numbers.
- 35:00Speaker 1: And he's very honest.
- 35:01Speaker 18: He's always a little bit too excited when he reports them,
- 35:03Speaker 18: and that is showing you that it just doesn't make
- 35:06Speaker 18: sense if everybody is approving even of the tactics that
- 35:08Speaker 18: go into my communities go into the home. Deepert go
- 35:11Speaker 18: into the schools, find them and get them out.
- 35:13Speaker 1: Those were the numbers you're showing.
- 35:15Speaker 18: It doesn't jive why there are so many protests unless
- 35:18Speaker 18: it just is a function of the number of illegal
- 35:21Speaker 18: immigrants in the country, and there are many of them,
- 35:24Speaker 18: and if they band together and start to create mayhem,
- 35:26Speaker 18: then maybe that was inevitable.
- 35:28Speaker 2: Well, California's response, other than ignoring the violence and generally
- 35:33Speaker 2: not even protecting law enforcement from these lawless thugs, they
- 35:38Speaker 2: now want to and I think they have started suing
- 35:40Speaker 2: the Trump administration. Has that going to work out? I mean,
- 35:44Speaker 2: the judges in that state, we know how they lead.
- 35:48Speaker 2: But really, is this going to end in anything other
- 35:50Speaker 2: than just a waste of everybody's time.
- 35:52Speaker 18: Definitely a waste of time. That is their favorite tactic,
- 35:56Speaker 18: using the judicial system to their advantage. If they do
- 35:59Speaker 18: get something favorable on their side of the column, it's
- 36:01Speaker 18: going to go up to the Supreme Court. That's a
- 36:03Speaker 18: little bit tenuous and it's not a healthy system. If
- 36:07Speaker 18: fundamental questions, is the commander in chief, the head of
- 36:10Speaker 18: the executive branch, allowed to expel non citizens who are
- 36:13Speaker 18: in the country legally, and if that is even going
- 36:15Speaker 18: to be tested yeah, and hanging in the balance of
- 36:18Speaker 18: four or five people in rules just to find that
- 36:20Speaker 18: we have problems. But I do think ultimately the Supreme
- 36:23Speaker 18: Court will rule favorably for this. This is within his
- 36:26Speaker 18: purview as the chief executive of the country and hopefully
- 36:30Speaker 18: you'll have success with it.
- 36:32Speaker 2: Well, we can't have this situation continue. You keep hearing
- 36:37Speaker 2: talk about a constitutional crisis. This is the constitutional crisis.
- 36:42Speaker 2: The court's being used to usurpt the power of the
- 36:46Speaker 2: commander in cheap and the will of the people. We
- 36:48Speaker 2: had an election, it was a landslide result. The president
- 36:52Speaker 2: has a man date and he's not being allowed to
- 36:53Speaker 2: deliver on that man date. And the Democrats have got
- 36:57Speaker 2: to be careful with these tactics because it can come
- 36:59Speaker 2: back to them the other way as well.
- 37:02Speaker 18: Definitely, and this side is learning how to play by
- 37:04Speaker 18: those rules. I think for so long they didn't. And
- 37:07Speaker 18: so the Left is very effective at these strategies. But
- 37:10Speaker 18: Trump and his successors, whether is JD. Vans or whoever,
- 37:13Speaker 18: are going to use that same playbook on them.
- 37:16Speaker 2: Absolutely. Now, Donald Trump had a bit of fun today.
- 37:18Speaker 2: He had a diagnosis and some advice for Greta Thunberg,
- 37:23Speaker 2: who is accusing Israel of kidnapping her.
- 37:26Speaker 7: She's a strange person. She's a young, angry person. I
- 37:29Speaker 7: don't know if it's real anger. It's hard to believe, actually,
- 37:31Speaker 7: but I saw what happened. She's certainly different anger management.
- 37:38Speaker 7: I think she has to go to an anger management class.
- 37:42Speaker 7: That's my primary recommendation for her.
- 37:46Speaker 1: As she says, well she can, I can.
- 37:49Speaker 7: I find it. I think Israel has enough problems without
- 37:52Speaker 7: kidnapping Greta Thunberg. And secondly, are you guys to know
- 37:56Speaker 7: what she said she was kidnapped by Israel?
- 37:58Speaker 2: Yes, sir, she needs anger management classes kosher and he
- 38:03Speaker 2: questions whether that anger is genuine. But if it is genuine,
- 38:07Speaker 2: he wants her to get some help.
- 38:09Speaker 18: That was Trump and it's comedic timing and it's finance.
- 38:12Speaker 18: I feel like we're back in the Apprentice, But in
- 38:14Speaker 18: real life she is not a sympathetic figure. I think
- 38:17Speaker 18: she's suffering from relevance deprivation syndrome, where her climate mandate
- 38:22Speaker 18: has fizzled and she's trying to inject herself into whatever
- 38:24Speaker 18: the issues of the day are. Sailing into Gaza, being
- 38:27Speaker 18: intercepted and then claiming she was kidnapped by Israel, and
- 38:30Speaker 18: I think she's petitioning her country, the Swedish government to intervene,
- 38:34Speaker 18: even though I think they're sending her back.
- 38:36Speaker 2: But they're sending it back. They're not even faulting hers.
- 38:38Speaker 2: I don't know what this intervention is going totally.
- 38:41Speaker 18: She sounds like somebody desperate for attention and fame, and
- 38:44Speaker 18: mebe anger management.
- 38:44Speaker 2: As the President said, now, let's talk a little about Columbia.
- 38:48Speaker 2: The leading Conservative candidate for president, thirty nine year old
- 38:52Speaker 2: Senator Migail Urubay Turba, was shot three times, including twice
- 38:57Speaker 2: in the head, while he was addressed supporters at the weekend.
- 39:01Speaker 2: Here's how it unfolded and a warning viewers might find
- 39:05Speaker 2: this distressing. In the aftermath, the presidential hopeful was surrounded
- 39:21Speaker 2: by supporters who put themselves in considerable danger to try
- 39:25Speaker 2: to help him. Let's have a look Tourbe has survived
- 39:41Speaker 2: emergency surgery and is an intensive care has been non
- 39:45Speaker 2: responsive thus far. His wife, Maria Claudia Tarrizona, has asked
- 39:50Speaker 2: the nation to pray for his survival, saying, Miguel is
- 39:54Speaker 2: currently fighting for his life. Let us ask God to
- 39:57Speaker 2: guide the hands of the doctors who are treating him.
- 40:00Speaker 2: A security guard has detained the alleged attacker, who is
- 40:04Speaker 2: believed to be just fifteen years old. He's in police custody. Kosher.
- 40:09Speaker 2: We've seen this sort of violence too often in South America.
- 40:13Speaker 2: I can argue it's happened in North America in recent
- 40:15Speaker 2: times as well.
- 40:17Speaker 18: Indeed, now Latin America is a very dangerous place. I
- 40:20Speaker 18: think it's eight percent of the world's population and one
- 40:22Speaker 18: third of the homicides happened there. So that's just the
- 40:24Speaker 18: baseline situation. But then you layer on top of that
- 40:27Speaker 18: the political angle to this, and there's been quite a
- 40:30Speaker 18: few I was looking it up.
- 40:31Speaker 1: A presidential candidate for Ecuador was shot and killed.
- 40:34Speaker 18: Recently, a mayoral candidate from Mexico was shot as well.
- 40:38Speaker 1: A few years ago.
- 40:39Speaker 18: Bolscenario, the former president of Brazil, was stabbed survived.
- 40:42Speaker 1: It was stabbed in twenty eighteen.
- 40:44Speaker 18: So this seems to be another part of the playbook
- 40:47Speaker 18: with just as a political climate gets worse and worse
- 40:50Speaker 18: and the stakes get higher, you do see that, whether
- 40:53Speaker 18: it's the riots in La or these kinds of assassinations,
- 40:56Speaker 18: and I think we'll see more of them.
- 40:57Speaker 2: Unfortunately, unfortunately, and the that so many of these victims
- 41:01Speaker 2: tend to be on the conservative side of politics. Has
- 41:05Speaker 2: not escaped attention either. Koshergator, thank you so much for
- 41:08Speaker 2: your time. Time still to come. Alex Stein will be
- 41:11Speaker 2: here to celebrate Pride months. You don't want to miss that.
- 41:24Speaker 2: Welcome back. Joining me now is comedian and host of
- 41:27Speaker 2: Primetime with Alex Stein on Blaze TV. Alex We've often
- 41:32Speaker 2: remarked about Donald Trump being the funniest president. We saw
- 41:36Speaker 2: some of his work earlier with his diagnosis of Greta Thunberg.
- 41:40Speaker 2: His comedic timing is impeccable and it appears to have
- 41:44Speaker 2: rubbed off on the VP. Here is jd Vance with
- 41:47Speaker 2: comedian Theo Vaughn talking about the Big Beautiful Bill and
- 41:51Speaker 2: the Bengals.
- 41:52Speaker 12: You think Trey Hendrickson will get signed.
- 41:56Speaker 15: That's the million dollar question or I guess the fifty
- 41:58Speaker 15: million dollar question.
- 41:59Speaker 12: Are you going to stub.
- 42:02Speaker 15: That was actually an unknown? That's a big part of
- 42:04Speaker 15: the Big Beautiful Bill is thirty million dollars to the
- 42:07Speaker 15: Bengals to help with salary cap space. I mean, look,
- 42:10Speaker 15: so Hendrickson in his market, dude, Dude, he's a generational talent.
- 42:14Speaker 2: Alex is a rare politician. Vance just on the ho von.
- 42:19Speaker 2: He revealed in that interview with the VP that he's
- 42:22Speaker 2: got Tim Walls coming on the program tamp On. Tim
- 42:27Speaker 2: is going to be on his show. How do you
- 42:29Speaker 2: think that's going to go?
- 42:31Speaker 19: Well, tam On tam the football coach and knows nothing
- 42:34Speaker 19: about football.
- 42:35Speaker 4: That is going to be very entertaining.
- 42:36Speaker 19: But I just want to say something, Rita to your
- 42:38Speaker 19: audience and Sky News. You know, I have been accused
- 42:41Speaker 19: of being anti LGBTQ in the past, and I want
- 42:43Speaker 19: to say that that is absolutely impossible because I'm a
- 42:46Speaker 19: Dallas Cowboys fan, and being a Dallas Cowboys fan in
- 42:49Speaker 19: America means that you cannot have any more gay pride
- 42:51Speaker 19: than that. So you know, I wouldn't be surprised if
- 42:54Speaker 19: they didn't try to give the Bengals thirty million dollars
- 42:57Speaker 19: to help with the salary cap.
- 42:58Speaker 4: I mean, they need it. They have a bunch of
- 42:59Speaker 4: good players.
- 43:00Speaker 19: There is that tether and I could be afore be
- 43:01Speaker 19: able to afford very much longer.
- 43:03Speaker 4: So I wouldn't be surprised if JD.
- 43:05Speaker 19: Vance put his finger on the scale to try to
- 43:07Speaker 19: help out his home team.
- 43:10Speaker 2: Well, it happens that JD. Vance was being interviewed there
- 43:14Speaker 2: with THEO Vaughn as Elon Musk and Donald Trump were
- 43:18Speaker 2: having their massive feud on X. Of course he was
- 43:22Speaker 2: asked about it. It was happening as he was on
- 43:26Speaker 2: his way to the interview, And this is his explanation
- 43:29Speaker 2: at that early stage about why Elon had him melt down.
- 43:33Speaker 15: Elon's new to politics, right, so his businesses are being
- 43:37Speaker 15: attacked NonStop. They're literally like firebombing some of his cars.
- 43:40Speaker 15: And by the way, we're looking into a lot of
- 43:42Speaker 15: the stuff. I mean, some of that stuff we're looking
- 43:43Speaker 15: into as an active terrorism at the Department of Justice,
- 43:46Speaker 15: because I think it is an act of terrorism. So
- 43:47Speaker 15: I think part of it is this guy got into
- 43:50Speaker 15: politics and has suffered a lot for it. But I mean,
- 43:54Speaker 15: and I get the frustration there, and I get the
- 43:56Speaker 15: frustration that. I mean, look, Congress got the spinning bil,
- 44:00Speaker 15: But the main purpose of the bill is not actually
- 44:02Speaker 15: spending or cutting spending, though it does cut a lot
- 44:04Speaker 15: of spending. The main purpose of the bill is to
- 44:06Speaker 15: prevent the biggest tax increase. But I understand, like it's
- 44:09Speaker 15: a good bill, it's not a perfect bill. Like the
- 44:11Speaker 15: process in DC if you're a business leader, you probably
- 44:14Speaker 15: get frustrated with that process because it's more you know, bureaucratic,
- 44:17Speaker 15: it's more slow moving. So I think there's just some
- 44:19Speaker 15: frustrations there. But I really, man, I think it's a
- 44:23Speaker 15: huge mistake for him to go after the president like that,
- 44:25Speaker 15: And I think that if he and the President are
- 44:29Speaker 15: in some blood feud, most importantly, it's going to be
- 44:32Speaker 15: bad for the country. But I think it's going to
- 44:34Speaker 15: be I don't think it's going to be good for
- 44:35Speaker 15: Elon either.
- 44:35Speaker 2: Alex what's been the fallout. Will Elon ever be trusted
- 44:40Speaker 2: again after that meltdown?
- 44:43Speaker 4: I do not think that Elon will be trusted again.
- 44:45Speaker 19: I mean, you're hearing stories too of Elon of Shelton
- 44:48Speaker 19: cabinet members that had secret service, you know, detail with
- 44:52Speaker 19: him at the time, and he's not getting in trouble,
- 44:54Speaker 19: and you know, there's been allegations that he was supposedly
- 44:56Speaker 19: potentially on some sort of therapeutic kenemine at the time
- 44:59Speaker 19: of these tweets. Listen, if you really look at Elon Musk,
- 45:02Speaker 19: I like Elon Musk, but and honestly, I'm actually I
- 45:06Speaker 19: agree with him that.
- 45:07Speaker 4: There's probably a little too much bloating this bill.
- 45:09Speaker 19: But at the same time, Elon Musk called out Donald Trump,
- 45:12Speaker 19: and I think that it needs to publicly apologize and
- 45:14Speaker 19: try to harp back on the Trump train because him
- 45:16Speaker 19: beefing with Donald Trump is a proposition that I think
- 45:19Speaker 19: will only be a hindrance to his success in the
- 45:23Speaker 19: future for Elon to continue to favor Donald Trump.
- 45:25Speaker 2: Oh look, I think Elon very quickly realized his considerable
- 45:29Speaker 2: mistake there. He's gone back and deleted some of those
- 45:32Speaker 2: crazy tweets and he was tweeting in a far more
- 45:36Speaker 2: conciliatory tone. But you know what, if you're going to
- 45:39Speaker 2: have a meltdown behind closed doors, do not put it
- 45:43Speaker 2: on X. That is not very clever at all. Now
- 45:47Speaker 2: you've been up to mischief again, Alex. I know how
- 45:50Speaker 2: much you enjoy Pride Month. He talked about that earlier.
- 45:53Speaker 2: Here you are spreading the joy at a city council meeting.
- 45:58Speaker 20: I just want to say that this is my favorite
- 45:59Speaker 20: month of the year. So I wrote a little song
- 46:01Speaker 20: about this month and why it's so special to me.
- 46:04Speaker 20: So if you guys want to sing along, you guys
- 46:05Speaker 20: are welcome to sing along.
- 46:13Speaker 2: In that is That's enough. That's enough, Alex, I don't
- 46:30Speaker 2: know what to say. Is the tune going to be
- 46:33Speaker 2: out on iTunes? What were you thinking there? Some of
- 46:37Speaker 2: those lyrics we kin'd even played at this time of night.
- 46:43Speaker 4: No, we can't.
- 46:44Speaker 19: But Rita, there is no lies detected whatsoever. This whole
- 46:47Speaker 19: entire month, every corporation decides to put their pride flag
- 46:50Speaker 19: right in our face and listen, I'm not anti gay.
- 46:53Speaker 19: I love my gay brothers and sisters, but I'm kind
- 46:55Speaker 19: of sticking of these companies virtue signaling for one month
- 46:57Speaker 19: of the year. It's like, give me a break. You know,
- 47:00Speaker 19: we should have a support for everybody year round. And
- 47:05Speaker 19: you know I had to go up there and do
- 47:06Speaker 19: a little primetime Alex Stein and I will say this
- 47:09Speaker 19: that ruta you called it. We're having a better version,
- 47:11Speaker 19: a much higher quality version of this song.
- 47:16Speaker 4: Coming out this week.
- 47:17Speaker 19: It should be a out I think within twenty four
- 47:19Speaker 19: hours of this interview tonight.
- 47:22Speaker 2: Oh wonderful. Maybe you could put it with a bonus track,
- 47:25Speaker 2: the one you wrote about AOC What was that one
- 47:28Speaker 2: called Big Booty Latina's I think again another bang out
- 47:32Speaker 2: from you now before you go. Those crazy La riots
- 47:36Speaker 2: have spread to Texas, the great state of Texas. Well,
- 47:40Speaker 2: they're not rights there yet, They're just a protest if
- 47:43Speaker 2: you doesn't confuse Souls have showed up in Austin, which
- 47:46Speaker 2: is barely Texas anyway these days, but they refuse to
- 47:50Speaker 2: explain their position. When Owen Schreyer showed up, I would just.
- 47:55Speaker 12: Think, if you're out here for a cause, you'd be
- 47:57Speaker 12: able to talk about it, and none of you can.
- 48:00Speaker 2: Bunches, if you can't, le don't you just wait? All right?
- 48:02Speaker 16: Think what we're all here for. I've been just shut
- 48:04Speaker 16: up like everybody else, and all right, you're edituting everyone.
- 48:09Speaker 4: I'm asking as do you believe it alone?
- 48:12Speaker 2: Yes?
- 48:13Speaker 7: I do. But the time in a place.
- 48:16Speaker 4: States America at the time.
- 48:17Speaker 2: I won rate the room, Alex, what do you think
- 48:21Speaker 2: about these protests or that they're going to take hold
- 48:23Speaker 2: in Texas?
- 48:25Speaker 3: Well?
- 48:25Speaker 4: I think Texas is not going to be as bad
- 48:27Speaker 4: as La.
- 48:27Speaker 19: And great job of Owen Schroyer going into the Lions
- 48:30Speaker 19: then and talking to the protesters.
- 48:32Speaker 4: But this is the problem though real quickly. It is
- 48:34Speaker 4: that these protesters, the.
- 48:35Speaker 19: American ones, now we have our own military potentially fighting
- 48:39Speaker 19: against American citizens.
- 48:40Speaker 4: That's bad, and the other thing is the illegal immigrants.
- 48:42Speaker 19: They don't even want to be legal immigrants because they
- 48:44Speaker 19: want to be able to make money, send it back home,
- 48:45Speaker 19: and not pay taxes.
- 48:46Speaker 4: So these people that are fighting against Americans don't even
- 48:49Speaker 4: want to actually be American. That's a big problem.
- 48:51Speaker 2: Well, they're fighting the flag of another country, so that's
- 48:54Speaker 2: a pretty good sign of where they want to be.
- 48:56Speaker 2: Alex Stein, thank you for your time, and that's it
- 49:00Speaker 2: from May. Up next is Newsnight, good Night,
