- 0:02Speaker 1: On scorn leads Ostrodia.
- 0:05Speaker 2: This is the Wider Panalty Show.
- 0:09Speaker 3: Good evening and welcome to the Riata Paney Show. Coming
- 0:11Speaker 3: up tonight, Australia's most successful business person sounds the alarm
- 0:16Speaker 3: on it zero. Louise Robertson Nicata will join me to
- 0:19Speaker 3: discuss that shortly the Great Douglas Murray will wane on
- 0:23Speaker 3: a leading Melbourne hospital's discriminatory policy prioritizing Indigenous patients. Mi
- 0:30Speaker 3: Horowitz will have the latest US news from the New
- 0:34Speaker 3: York Mirror. Race to President Trump's triumph in Tokyo and
- 0:38Speaker 3: Left is Losing It features an MSNBC anchor embarrassing himself
- 0:44Speaker 3: lying about CNN and.
- 0:46Speaker 4: Now CNN eagerly pays a Trump supporter to lie on
- 0:49Speaker 4: CNN every day and night for Donald Trump.
- 0:53Speaker 3: But first, Australia's most successful business person, Executive chairman of
- 0:57Speaker 3: Hancock Prospecting, Genna Reinhardt, has a dress university students. In
- 1:01Speaker 3: a wide ranging speech to the Echo University of New
- 1:05Speaker 3: South Wales Economics Forum, she highlighted the dangers of the
- 1:09Speaker 3: Albanese government's net zero agenda and urged students to think
- 1:14Speaker 3: critically and be wary of socialist indoctrination. Have a listen.
- 1:19Speaker 5: How can students get to the costs of net zero
- 1:22Speaker 5: and scientific truth? I'd suggest question and question, then apply
- 1:29Speaker 5: critical thinking. Don't be suathed by propagando.
- 1:34Speaker 3: Missus Reinhard also warned that net zero policies and red
- 1:38Speaker 3: tape were driving down investment and productivity.
- 1:42Speaker 5: Yes, a government caused national energy crisis is approaching, which
- 1:47Speaker 5: will impact all of you with higher costs and unreliable electricity.
- 1:54Speaker 5: Some spreading the renewable culp will point to hydrogen no
- 2:00Speaker 5: matter how many taxpayers dollars are being made available for
- 2:04Speaker 5: this trough.
- 2:05Speaker 3: And missus Reinhardt questioned whether the net zero policies embraced
- 2:10Speaker 3: by both Labor and the Coalition at this point are
- 2:13Speaker 3: actually supported by the Australian public, pointing out that a
- 2:17Speaker 3: recent poll showed most Australians were pro net zero, providing
- 2:22Speaker 3: it doesn't cost them more than sixty dollars a year. Well,
- 2:26Speaker 3: it's costing a lot more than that, a hell of
- 2:28Speaker 3: a lot more than that when you look at the
- 2:31Speaker 3: total cost.
- 2:32Speaker 5: We've entered this without being told how much net zero
- 2:36Speaker 5: will cost. Figures of a trillion dollars have been estimated
- 2:42Speaker 5: but we don't know the secret subsidies, and we sure
- 2:46Speaker 5: don't know because it seems how government may not have
- 2:49Speaker 5: thought about this, the big whopper costs to change defense,
- 2:54Speaker 5: defense industries, agriculture, critical minerals, mining and refining, etc. And
- 3:02Speaker 5: all services to meet net zero requirements, plus the costs
- 3:08Speaker 5: of losses of manufacturing, refining, smelting AI, none of which
- 3:15Speaker 5: can function on unreliable electricity.
- 3:19Speaker 3: Joining me now for more on this is skuy Andese
- 3:21Speaker 3: contributor Louise Roberts and Menzi's Research Center senior fellow Nicata Nick.
- 3:26Speaker 3: I'll start with you. It was a powerful speech and
- 3:29Speaker 3: delivered to an audience that has probably not been exposed
- 3:33Speaker 3: to the realities presented by Gina Ryan Hard. They probably
- 3:37Speaker 3: haven't heard common sense like that.
- 3:39Speaker 1: Possibly ever, Yeah, there's more wisdom in that speech than
- 3:42Speaker 1: most kids would have got all year. I respects in
- 3:45Speaker 1: the classroom. It'd be nice to see. Maybe we should
- 3:47Speaker 1: put GENA to work redesigning the national curriculum. But I
- 3:51Speaker 1: thought it was really some good home truths she brought home,
- 3:54Speaker 1: particularly the fact that it is younger generation will end
- 3:59Speaker 1: up paying for most of them, not old people like me.
- 4:02Speaker 1: I mean, so much of what's being invested in renewable
- 4:05Speaker 1: energy and unreliable renewable energy is going on the never never.
- 4:09Speaker 1: Those bills will have to be paid off over twenty
- 4:12Speaker 1: thirty forty years. The government's guaranteeing a energy a price
- 4:18Speaker 1: to these producers, whether or not they can sell it
- 4:20Speaker 1: for that if they don't, will have to bail them out.
- 4:23Speaker 1: So everything goes on the next generation of taxpayers and
- 4:26Speaker 1: they will have fewer opportunities, They will have lower incomes
- 4:30Speaker 1: and less prosperity because of this nonsense that's being driven
- 4:34Speaker 1: by Chris Bowen and his crowd. Did you say I
- 4:39Speaker 1: think reader, that they were willing people are willing to
- 4:41Speaker 1: pay up to fifty dollars a year for dealing with
- 4:44Speaker 1: climate change.
- 4:45Speaker 3: This is going to cost sixty dollars. See. Oh yes,
- 4:51Speaker 3: and this is something I think maybe I put.
- 4:52Speaker 6: It in sense.
- 4:53Speaker 1: I don't know about you, but anyway.
- 4:57Speaker 3: Well, yeah, sixty dollars a year, that's affordable for most people.
- 5:03Speaker 3: But when it starts going above that, the support for
- 5:07Speaker 3: these sort of policies drops. Louise quite dramatically. Just on
- 5:11Speaker 3: this speech, missus Rhan had also praised Charlie Kirk, the
- 5:16Speaker 3: late Charlie Kirk have a listened.
- 5:18Speaker 5: Charlie believed that if his reasoning was listening to, it
- 5:21Speaker 5: would win and he could make a difference. He addressed
- 5:26Speaker 5: two thousand or so campuses and got to know what
- 5:30Speaker 5: was going on there, probably better than any political party
- 5:34Speaker 5: does in USA or here, and presenting non socialist, patriotic,
- 5:40Speaker 5: profounily ideas as better.
- 5:44Speaker 3: I really do need a group like Turning Point with
- 5:48Speaker 3: a presence in universities across the country, Louise, because where
- 5:53Speaker 3: else are kids going to be exposed to this sort
- 5:56Speaker 3: of alternative view of the world and sense view of
- 6:00Speaker 3: the world. I would argue, when our university campuses are
- 6:05Speaker 3: just so corrupted by leftist ideology, they are.
- 6:09Speaker 7: As a tidal wave of left group thinks sort of
- 6:12Speaker 7: sweeping through all university campuses. And how wonderful would be
- 6:14Speaker 7: to see a Turning Point type scenario at the campuses
- 6:18Speaker 7: where young students feel they can actually air a common
- 6:22Speaker 7: sense view and not be shouted down. And I think
- 6:24Speaker 7: what missus Reinhards clearly illustrated there is that she speaks
- 6:29Speaker 7: with the students, not at them, And that's exactly what
- 6:31Speaker 7: Charlie Kirk did. They felt her they didn't feel their
- 6:34Speaker 7: being lectured by you know, generations that had no idea
- 6:37Speaker 7: about net zero and were you know, lumping them with
- 6:41Speaker 7: huge debts and huge problems later on in life. As
- 6:44Speaker 7: we've said here and as Nik has just said now,
- 6:46Speaker 7: so I would welcome that sort of debate on campus.
- 6:49Speaker 7: And that's what university life used to be like. And
- 6:51Speaker 7: certainly when I went to university some time ago, you
- 6:54Speaker 7: could have those conversations and not feel that you were
- 6:57Speaker 7: going to be you know, discriminated against, been called a
- 7:00Speaker 7: right wing nutcha or something like that. So we definitely
- 7:03Speaker 7: need to get that proper, authentic debate, respectful debate back
- 7:07Speaker 7: into university campuses, and turning point is definitely one way
- 7:10Speaker 7: to do that.
- 7:13Speaker 3: Now. Billionaire Microsoft co founder Bill Gates has done a
- 7:17Speaker 3: massive u turn on climate change, after spending years and
- 7:22Speaker 3: years spooking scare campaigns warning that rising temperatures caused by
- 7:26Speaker 3: carbon emissions will make Earth uninhabitable, while he now says
- 7:30Speaker 3: climate change will not lead to humanity's device, and he
- 7:34Speaker 3: has urged a shift away from the doomsday outlook many
- 7:39Speaker 3: climate activists have adopted. Nick Gates has also pointed out
- 7:44Speaker 3: that cold climates and not hot ones pose a far
- 7:48Speaker 3: greater threat to humanity. Writing surprisingly, excessive cold is far deadlier,
- 7:54Speaker 3: killing nearly ten times more people every year than he does. Well,
- 7:58Speaker 3: it's not really surprising any one of us is actually
- 8:01Speaker 3: researched this topic. That that is a fairly obvious conclusion
- 8:06Speaker 3: that researchers have known for years. But somehow, to this
- 8:11Speaker 3: climate activist, it was a point he missed up until now.
- 8:17Speaker 1: There's more joy in heaven for every climate activist who's
- 8:20Speaker 1: saved than for you know. I mean, I want to
- 8:23Speaker 1: welcome him on board, wemy on board. I'm not going
- 8:25Speaker 1: to criticize in hypocrisy. It's great that he's come to
- 8:29Speaker 1: common sense understanding of this, because it's not been a
- 8:32Speaker 1: sudden conversion for Bill Gates this time. Last year, Microsoft
- 8:36Speaker 1: announced that it was going to reopen three Mile Island
- 8:39Speaker 1: nuclear plant in order to produce energy for its storage
- 8:43Speaker 1: and AI facilities. So I think, like a lot of
- 8:46Speaker 1: those people in that Silicon Valley world, they've been munked
- 8:51Speaker 1: by reality. They need energy, they need lots of it.
- 8:54Speaker 1: They need reliable, cheap electricity in order to power these
- 8:58Speaker 1: data centers. They're not going to get it from windmills
- 9:01Speaker 1: and solar panels, and they're coming round very quickly. If
- 9:04Speaker 1: only our own energy minister was half as smart as
- 9:08Speaker 1: Bill Gates.
- 9:11Speaker 3: Now let's go to Lydia Thorpe, who is still trying
- 9:15Speaker 3: to defend the statement she made at a pro Palestinian
- 9:19Speaker 3: protest just two weeks ago in Melbourne.
- 9:22Speaker 8: And we will turn.
- 9:22Speaker 9: Up every day and if I have to burn down
- 9:26Speaker 9: Parliament House to.
- 9:27Speaker 6: Make it a p.
- 9:33Speaker 5: I am not there to make him.
- 9:36Speaker 3: I really jumped the Crown people. Well, she's now arguing
- 9:41Speaker 3: that fire is just a metaphor, and the Senate voted
- 9:45Speaker 3: to censure her for those remarks. This is what she
- 9:49Speaker 3: had to say for herself.
- 9:51Speaker 9: And yet here we are treating a metaphor like a
- 9:54Speaker 9: national emergency.
- 9:56Speaker 3: What a joke.
- 9:58Speaker 9: The problem isn't my word words, it's the colonial systems
- 10:02Speaker 9: that still refuse to change.
- 10:05Speaker 3: Loise. There you go. It's the colonial systems at fault.
- 10:10Speaker 3: Or seems to be an all purpose excuse at the moment,
- 10:14Speaker 3: doesn't it. What did you make of her defense about
- 10:17Speaker 3: those comments that were really many people saw as a
- 10:22Speaker 3: genuine threat, though they didn't expect it to go and
- 10:25Speaker 3: strike a match.
- 10:26Speaker 7: No, they didn't expect her to strike a match, but
- 10:28Speaker 7: it's more sort of outrage is her brand. She does
- 10:31Speaker 7: not apologize for any of these infamatory comments. She's never
- 10:33Speaker 7: apologized for the attack she launched at King Charles when
- 10:36Speaker 7: he came to Australia recently. And I just feel by
- 10:39Speaker 7: saying it's a metaphor is just a very weak position.
- 10:42Speaker 7: And there's always a racism card that comes in. And
- 10:44Speaker 7: you look at what Lydia Thorpe does in public, can
- 10:46Speaker 7: you think what does she actually stand for as a politician,
- 10:49Speaker 7: What are her policies, what are the causes she's trying
- 10:52Speaker 7: to help. And I'm at a loss because all I
- 10:55Speaker 7: hear is this noise and this sort of claims of
- 10:58Speaker 7: you know, the hierarchy and the patriarch and the colonial
- 11:01Speaker 7: system and all these things get blamed, but she never
- 11:03Speaker 7: takes responsibility for the inflammatory remarks that she makes, including
- 11:08Speaker 7: saying she wanted to burn down Parliament. It's disgrace well,
- 11:10Speaker 7: it's a very bad example perhaps to young people who
- 11:13Speaker 7: think that maybe she represents what an Australian politician should be.
- 11:19Speaker 3: Well, I would argue Green Senator Marine Fruki is not
- 11:24Speaker 3: much better. She went on quite a rant in defense
- 11:27Speaker 3: of Lydia Thorpe during the essensial motion. She attacked what
- 11:31Speaker 3: she called you white people in here.
- 11:34Speaker 10: He's just a little bit of what she had to say,
- 11:37Speaker 10: that they would perhaps understand the meaning of burning down
- 11:41Speaker 10: the house, given that many of you white people in
- 11:44Speaker 10: here claim English as your first language, that you would
- 11:47Speaker 10: actually know, you would actually know what this means.
- 11:52Speaker 11: Or maybe or maybe some of you have heard the
- 11:55Speaker 11: Talking Heads song burning down the House in the eighties,
- 12:00Speaker 11: which is about which is about liberation, It is about freedom,
- 12:05Speaker 11: it is about breaking tree.
- 12:07Speaker 3: Nick. Well, there you go. You white people should be
- 12:10Speaker 3: aware of Talking Heads song lyrics. The argument there was
- 12:16Speaker 3: a little bit confusing.
- 12:20Speaker 1: Well, we white people are too polite to go around
- 12:23Speaker 1: making assumptions about people based on the color of their skin. Look,
- 12:26Speaker 1: it's very rich coming from Marin Feruki. She came over
- 12:29Speaker 1: here as a young child. Her father was accepted as
- 12:33Speaker 1: a refugee from Egypt. He was given a wonderful chance
- 12:38Speaker 1: to start at life and you here in Australia. She
- 12:40Speaker 1: had a chance to grow up in Australia and she
- 12:43Speaker 1: succeeded very well despite the colonial system, despite the fact
- 12:48Speaker 1: that she's not white, She's done very well in this
- 12:50Speaker 1: country because we are not the kind of country that
- 12:54Speaker 1: actually distinguishes between people on the basis of their skin.
- 12:57Speaker 1: We believe in the content of their character. So she's
- 13:00Speaker 1: a bit of a metaphor for something. Lydia Thorpe's a
- 13:03Speaker 1: metaphor for narcissism and the futility of rage. But you know,
- 13:08Speaker 1: this whole thing and trying to portray it as a
- 13:10Speaker 1: racistue is just so you can hear. You can hear
- 13:13Speaker 1: the groans from the Senate, couldn't you, As she said it,
- 13:16Speaker 1: it's just so overdone. Yes, I think going to get
- 13:18Speaker 1: her anywhere.
- 13:19Speaker 3: I think even the even the labor types had heard enough.
- 13:24Speaker 3: But we will give marine the final word. Let's hear
- 13:26Speaker 3: what else she had to say about Senator Thorpe, who
- 13:29Speaker 3: she claims was just speaking truth to power.
- 13:33Speaker 11: Senata Hope spoke truth to power about the genocide and
- 13:38Speaker 11: the First Nations people. This is this is how you
- 13:42Speaker 11: treat people of color. So I'm not surprised at all
- 13:45Speaker 11: that you're ranting back at me. Senator Thorpe spoke truth
- 13:49Speaker 11: to power.
- 13:51Speaker 3: Yes, playing the victim yet again. Nick Kaita, Louise Roberts,
- 13:56Speaker 3: thank you so much of your time this evening. Joining
- 13:59Speaker 3: me now is the author of international best sellers, including
- 14:03Speaker 3: his latest on democracies and death cults. Douglas Murray will
- 14:07Speaker 3: get to the US and UK shortly, but let's start
- 14:11Speaker 3: in Australia where one of our leading hospitals here in Melbourne,
- 14:15Speaker 3: Saint Vincent's Hospitals, has introduced discriminatory practice, with Indigenous patients
- 14:21Speaker 3: fast tracked in the emergency department over other patients. Hospital
- 14:26Speaker 3: staff ordered to treat Indigenous patients within thirty minutes of arrival.
- 14:32Speaker 3: What do you make of that policy, Douglas, Where patients
- 14:34Speaker 3: are seen not based purely on medical need.
- 14:39Speaker 6: It's extraordinary, reta. I wish it wasn't. I wish it
- 14:43Speaker 6: was surprising, but I'm afraid it isn't.
- 14:45Speaker 9: Is it?
- 14:47Speaker 6: It's similar to practices that the so called DEI and
- 14:51Speaker 6: other movements have pushed for years, which is that somehow
- 14:56Speaker 6: to make up for past inequities or inequalities, you have
- 15:02Speaker 6: to introduce new inequities and inequalities, and if any group
- 15:08Speaker 6: is regarded as having been disadvantaged in the past, you
- 15:11Speaker 6: must disadvantage another group in the present. It's worth just
- 15:16Speaker 6: calling it what it is, which is just flat out
- 15:19Speaker 6: discrimination and bigotry. There's no other word for it. And
- 15:23Speaker 6: in no other scenario would anyone tolerate this. I hope
- 15:27Speaker 6: it's not tolerated in this case. But in no other
- 15:30Speaker 6: way around would this be allowed. Would such discrimination in
- 15:35Speaker 6: favor of one group of people and against another be
- 15:39Speaker 6: deemed to be somehow progressive. It's as bigoted a policy
- 15:44Speaker 6: as you can get, and I hope it's very swiftly
- 15:47Speaker 6: consigned to history, as it should be.
- 15:52Speaker 3: I fear here in Melbourne, in Victoria, this is going
- 15:56Speaker 3: to be a practice that's going to spread rather than
- 15:58Speaker 3: be consigned to history. We've got a state based race
- 16:03Speaker 3: treaty and voice through Parliament being put into place at
- 16:08Speaker 3: the moment. So we've got all sorts of problems, But
- 16:12Speaker 3: so do New York.
- 16:13Speaker 6: You know, how long how long do the people who
- 16:17Speaker 6: who are pushing his policy honestly think that the rest
- 16:19Speaker 6: of the population would put up with this? How long
- 16:23Speaker 6: do they expect the rest of the population to just
- 16:26Speaker 6: sit by in emergency wards and see other people prioritized
- 16:32Speaker 6: because of their ethnic background. Just how long do they
- 16:35Speaker 6: think the Australian public who aren't so called indigenous heritage.
- 16:39Speaker 6: How long do they think are going to put up
- 16:40Speaker 6: with this? Australian public just a complete walkover.
- 16:45Speaker 3: Well, yesterday in the newspaper there was a poll and
- 16:50Speaker 3: ninety seven percent of respondents said they were against this policy.
- 16:54Speaker 3: But I'm telling you, Douglas, I can't see it changing
- 16:57Speaker 3: anytime soon. New York residents. They're going to the polls
- 17:02Speaker 3: next week and they're probably going to have a new
- 17:06Speaker 3: man Zora and ma'm Danni is expected to prevail, and yeah,
- 17:11Speaker 3: let's hear from him.
- 17:12Speaker 12: I want to speak to the memory of my aunt
- 17:20Speaker 12: who started taking the subway after September eleventh because she
- 17:24Speaker 12: did not feel safe in her hit Jam.
- 17:26Speaker 3: Well, it wasn't so much his aunt as his dad's cousin.
- 17:31Speaker 3: But you know, semantics, Douglas, is he ready to lead?
- 17:38Speaker 6: No, in absolutely no way is he ready to lead.
- 17:41Speaker 6: And that was just another reminder of it. This is
- 17:44Speaker 6: such a self involved little narcissist with so little going
- 17:49Speaker 6: for him that he even decides to turn the memory
- 17:53Speaker 6: of nine to eleven and the three thousand Americans murdered
- 17:57Speaker 6: that day into a story about his aunt and the subway.
- 18:01Speaker 6: It's interesting, Like so many things, this smami candor that does,
- 18:06Speaker 6: he makes it about himself and it all turns out
- 18:08Speaker 6: to be untrue. Anyway, it seems to the extent that
- 18:12Speaker 6: he had any such aunt in question, she wasn't in
- 18:16Speaker 6: New York at the time, and in any case didn't
- 18:19Speaker 6: wear the headscarf. So it's an interesting one New Yorkers,
- 18:25Speaker 6: within less than a quarter of century of nine to eleven,
- 18:29Speaker 6: do we allow things like the slaughter of three thousand
- 18:33Speaker 6: Americans by Islamic fundamentalists to be turned instead into a
- 18:39Speaker 6: stormy a story of how this apparently fictitious or at
- 18:43Speaker 6: least partly fictitious figure of his aunt might have once felt,
- 18:48Speaker 6: possibly as if someone might could look at her badly,
- 18:52Speaker 6: nastily in the subway in the years after. This is
- 18:56Speaker 6: just outrageous as and I'm afraid everyone in Europe who
- 19:01Speaker 6: has seen candidates like Mamdani before knows exactly what's going on.
- 19:06Speaker 6: He's trying to pull all over people's eyes. He's trying
- 19:08Speaker 6: to smarm and smile his way into office. But this
- 19:12Speaker 6: statement alone, if we didn't have any other evidence of
- 19:16Speaker 6: his extremist views, would demonstrate the extremism of his views,
- 19:20Speaker 6: because he's not able to focus on the things that
- 19:23Speaker 6: actually have affected Americans and instead wants to keep on creating,
- 19:28Speaker 6: as so many radicals like him do. Wants to create
- 19:32Speaker 6: fictitious narratives about America and Americans being bigoted. And you know,
- 19:37Speaker 6: Americans can't even be murdered by jihadists without people like
- 19:42Speaker 6: Mamdani turning it into a fear of a pseudo fictitious
- 19:46Speaker 6: aunt of theirs once feeling sad about possibly being looked
- 19:49Speaker 6: at meanly. I mean, this is just outrageous and the
- 19:53Speaker 6: humpteenth example and demonstration of why Mamdani should be nowhere
- 19:57Speaker 6: near the mayor all off in New York.
- 20:03Speaker 3: Well, we had the mayoral debate. Finally, what do we
- 20:07Speaker 3: learn there? Ma'n Downey presents himself as this progressive champion
- 20:13Speaker 3: of the poor. Is he at least that can the
- 20:16Speaker 3: poor expect to get more affordable housing in New York
- 20:19Speaker 3: City for example?
- 20:21Speaker 6: No, I mean, he has no real plan for any
- 20:24Speaker 6: of that. One of his few flagship policies is that
- 20:29Speaker 6: he says that if he becomes mayor, he wants to
- 20:33Speaker 6: make riding the bus in New York free. He was
- 20:36Speaker 6: asked in this debate by the moderator finally, he got
- 20:39Speaker 6: some sort of tricky questions. People actually drilled down behind
- 20:42Speaker 6: the smile and they said, so seven hundred million dollars
- 20:49Speaker 6: I think it's expected to cost this free bus ride thing.
- 20:52Speaker 6: How are you going to pay for it? He was asked,
- 20:54Speaker 6: and he replied by saying that if bus riding is
- 20:57Speaker 6: made free, it will lower violence against bus drivers. It's
- 21:03Speaker 6: not clear why that is. I mean, among other things,
- 21:05Speaker 6: if anyone could just jump on a bus in New York,
- 21:08Speaker 6: including all the homeless and the drug addicts and everything else,
- 21:11Speaker 6: without paying, I don't know why that makes life safer
- 21:14Speaker 6: for anyone. But he also said that it meant that
- 21:17Speaker 6: more people would ride the bus, and therefore fewer people
- 21:19Speaker 6: would get in their cars. I'm afraid that policy, or
- 21:22Speaker 6: at least versions of that, have been tried elsewhere. What
- 21:24Speaker 6: will happen is the buses will become more dangerous than
- 21:27Speaker 6: they are, and as a result, many more people will
- 21:30Speaker 6: use their cars and would have done. But he was
- 21:33Speaker 6: then pushed together, yes, but irrespective of potential violence against
- 21:38Speaker 6: bus drivers in New York, how are you going to
- 21:40Speaker 6: pay for it? And eventually he said through higher taxes.
- 21:45Speaker 6: So great, he's such an economic whiz kid. This guy,
- 21:50Speaker 6: he says he's going to give New Yorkers free bus rides,
- 21:55Speaker 6: but they're going to have to pay for it in
- 21:57Speaker 6: higher taxes. That's the kind of thing that socialists like
- 22:01Speaker 6: him always argue for. They take more and more money
- 22:04Speaker 6: away from the public. They make the public poorer and poorer,
- 22:08Speaker 6: but they dangle little ballbles like every now and then
- 22:12Speaker 6: you can get a free bus ride on a more
- 22:14Speaker 6: dangerous bus. It's brilliant, isn't it.
- 22:19Speaker 3: Yes, there's going to be scary to think what New
- 22:22Speaker 3: York's going to look like in two or three years
- 22:24Speaker 3: time under a hard left socialist Mandani administration. Let's go
- 22:31Speaker 3: to the UK now, and we've spoken about the flag
- 22:34Speaker 3: protests there operation raise the colors supposed to represent patriotism
- 22:39Speaker 3: and pride in Britain, but not everybody is on ball.
- 22:43Speaker 3: Let's see it from Labor MP Jivant Sante, who is
- 22:47Speaker 3: calling on Brits to take down their flags because it's
- 22:50Speaker 3: making some people feel uncomfortable.
- 22:53Speaker 13: And then I see flags paint the roundabouts and that
- 22:56Speaker 13: is just a bit weird, and you know, because you've
- 23:00Speaker 13: seen it online and I see it by a box.
- 23:04Speaker 13: But this does make people feel uneasy are They asked,
- 23:08Speaker 13: what message are these flags supposed to be.
- 23:10Speaker 3: Sunding Douglas, What does it say about a nation if
- 23:14Speaker 3: the national flag fills people with angst and makes them
- 23:18Speaker 3: feel uneasy, or you've got an MP there saying it's
- 23:21Speaker 3: a bit weird.
- 23:23Speaker 6: Yeah, there's nothing weird about it at all. If he
- 23:27Speaker 6: traveled to any other national country'd probably fine that the
- 23:31Speaker 6: flag of that nation was flying in that country. It's
- 23:36Speaker 6: just a reminder of what a pushover people think that
- 23:40Speaker 6: Britain is these days. I mean, try it with any
- 23:44Speaker 6: other country a retam and maybe this guy can, maybe
- 23:48Speaker 6: he can go to any other country and say, you
- 23:51Speaker 6: know what, you flying your national flag makes me feel uncomfortable,
- 23:56Speaker 6: and just see how much care anyone gives to such
- 24:02Speaker 6: a statement. The fact is that somebody like him can
- 24:05Speaker 6: even say this is a reminder of the tolerance and
- 24:10Speaker 6: decency of the British people. Some people might say the
- 24:13Speaker 6: over tolerance and the overdecency of the British people, because
- 24:18Speaker 6: if the British people weren't tolerant and decent, then people
- 24:22Speaker 6: like this gentleman wouldn't be having the lives and careers
- 24:26Speaker 6: that they are having. And they wouldn't have the ability
- 24:29Speaker 6: to complain that the country they're in when the flag
- 24:34Speaker 6: is flown makes them feel uneasy. It's just again, there's
- 24:40Speaker 6: just unbelievable bigotry against the most tolerant nations in the world,
- 24:45Speaker 6: be it Australia, be it Britain. It's always the same pattern.
- 24:49Speaker 6: It's the countries that are the most tolerant, the most
- 24:53Speaker 6: respecting of difference and much more that end up being
- 24:57Speaker 6: taken advantage of by buffoons like this.
- 25:02Speaker 3: I mean, can you just imagine going to a country
- 25:04Speaker 3: in the Middle East and wanting to reside there and
- 25:08Speaker 3: telling them to take down their flags. It's making you
- 25:11Speaker 3: feel a little bit uncomfortable. I mean, it is just
- 25:15Speaker 3: like you said, astonishing behavior. Now to an incredible story
- 25:20Speaker 3: from the Telegraph Today's Telegraph revealing that an activist accused
- 25:24Speaker 3: of targeting and our raft base with Palestine action has
- 25:29Speaker 3: been leading anti Israel protests from behind bars. Mohammed Umar
- 25:34Speaker 3: Khalid had been using a prison phone to lead the
- 25:38Speaker 3: protests in what has been described as yet another security
- 25:43Speaker 3: fast at Douglas. That just seems astonishing.
- 25:49Speaker 6: That it was astonishing in modern Britain. We've just had
- 25:53Speaker 6: the case this week of a man who came to
- 25:56Speaker 6: the UK illegally immediately started molesting schoolgirls, was detained and
- 26:04Speaker 6: then accidentally released, and he actually returned to the place
- 26:09Speaker 6: he'd been released from asking to be let back into
- 26:12Speaker 6: the prison and to be deported, and he kept being
- 26:16Speaker 6: sent back by the authorities. He said no, no, no, chum,
- 26:18Speaker 6: on your way, go back out, have at it. And
- 26:22Speaker 6: that's just, you know, the last twenty four hours. So
- 26:26Speaker 6: every day in this calamitously badly run modern Britain, we
- 26:31Speaker 6: have cases like this, yes, you know, every now and
- 26:34Speaker 6: then they will catch somebody who's an illegal migrant and
- 26:40Speaker 6: they'll let them back out, or they'll let them back out,
- 26:43Speaker 6: swap them with somebody in France and they then come
- 26:46Speaker 6: back in again. Or in this case, you finally actually
- 26:48Speaker 6: do detain somebody who's involved in terrorist violence against an
- 26:52Speaker 6: RAF base, but it turns out that he can conceal
- 26:56Speaker 6: a phone in prison or whatever and guide the operations
- 27:00Speaker 6: from outside. It's just another reminder that under the Labor
- 27:04Speaker 6: Party in Britain, it's just a fundamentally unseerious system, a
- 27:08Speaker 6: totally broken system, and just everybody in Britain has to
- 27:12Speaker 6: hope that at some point quite soon this is turned around.
- 27:17Speaker 6: But I mean, you read stories like this Rita just
- 27:20Speaker 6: every day in the British press, and you know who's
- 27:26Speaker 6: in charge of this stuff, geniuses like David Lammy Douglas.
- 27:30Speaker 3: Before you go, the world celebrator the Gaza piece. Still
- 27:34Speaker 3: not too long ago, we noted many of those free
- 27:37Speaker 3: Palestinian types didn't seem to be celebrating. Let's hear from
- 27:41Speaker 3: one of them, Irish actress and pro Palestinian activists Denise Goff.
- 27:46Speaker 8: Well, Cesmiri's liberation, Cesmi's free Palestine, and also it feels
- 27:52Speaker 8: that it was made without any Palestinian voices. But also
- 27:59Speaker 8: then it meets the terms of a true free Palestine
- 28:04Speaker 8: and an end to the occupation.
- 28:06Speaker 3: There you go, Douglas, we've been told. The actress also
- 28:09Speaker 3: accues Israel of gas lighting the world about what's happening
- 28:13Speaker 3: in Gaza.
- 28:17Speaker 6: Yes, she strikes me read to as not being the
- 28:22Speaker 6: brain of Britain or indeed of Ireland. I don't know
- 28:25Speaker 6: if you get that sense as well. You can see
- 28:27Speaker 6: her sort of struggling for the next spoort. It almost
- 28:31Speaker 6: is written across her forehead. As she does that. She
- 28:36Speaker 6: says that there don't seem to be any Palestinian voices
- 28:39Speaker 6: in the discussion. That's very strange, isn't it, because, of course,
- 28:44Speaker 6: among other things, a rather strong Palestinian voice the remaining
- 28:49Speaker 6: leadership of Hamaz were absolutely central to the negotiations. Palestinian
- 28:56Speaker 6: voices is presumably something she's just heard talked about at
- 29:01Speaker 6: some poetry jam in a theater somewhere London where she's
- 29:08Speaker 6: attended a solidarity evening at some point, and she probably
- 29:12Speaker 6: can't point to any of the places in question on
- 29:14Speaker 6: a map, but she's heard things like we must prioritize
- 29:18Speaker 6: Palestinian voices, and actually, when Palestinian voices make themselves are
- 29:23Speaker 6: very loudly heard, whether on October seventh with their Rapithon
- 29:28Speaker 6: and murdererthon, or indeed, in the recent negotiations, it seems
- 29:33Speaker 6: that this dim witch just doesn't hear them. So perhaps
- 29:36Speaker 6: it's not a lack of Palestinian voices, it's a lack
- 29:39Speaker 6: of her being able to hear anything she doesn't want
- 29:42Speaker 6: to hear. But as I say, I think it's very
- 29:46Speaker 6: unlikely that this actress actually is over the complete issues
- 29:52Speaker 6: of phases one, two, and three of the cease fire negotiation.
- 29:56Speaker 6: I don't know, reader, I'd love you to ask her
- 29:58Speaker 6: on and and grill her on the real fine points
- 30:03Speaker 6: of the plan. I'd pay good money to watch that.
- 30:09Speaker 3: You know what. We will reach out to her people
- 30:12Speaker 3: and extend the invitations. She has been to Gaza, so
- 30:15Speaker 3: perhaps she has something to contribute, but I'm not going
- 30:19Speaker 3: to hold my breath. Douglas Murray, thank you so much
- 30:21Speaker 3: for your time this evening.
- 30:23Speaker 6: Great pleasure. As always, thank you.
- 30:26Speaker 3: Still to come Lefties Losing It plus the latest US
- 30:31Speaker 3: news from the New York mayoral race to present Trumps
- 30:34Speaker 3: to triumph in Tokyo. Army Horowitz will join you next.
- 30:48Speaker 3: Welcome back. It's time for Lefties Losing It and we
- 30:52Speaker 3: do talk about MSNBC a lot in this segment. It
- 30:56Speaker 3: is the mental asylum masquerading as a news network. We
- 31:00Speaker 3: have an embarrassment of lefties losing it. Riches there, Rachel Madaw,
- 31:05Speaker 3: Nicole Wallace, Joe Scarbra, Jensaki, and this next guy, Lawrence O'Donnell,
- 31:10Speaker 3: who often gets overlooked because, let's be honest, he's quite boring,
- 31:15Speaker 3: but being no doubt, he's as demented as they come.
- 31:18Speaker 3: Remember this gold stop the hammering.
- 31:22Speaker 4: Stop the hammering out there?
- 31:23Speaker 14: Who's got a hammer?
- 31:25Speaker 6: Where is it?
- 31:26Speaker 4: Where's the hammer?
- 31:28Speaker 3: Where's the hammer? Where is the hammer? Well, let's look
- 31:32Speaker 3: at Lawrence's latest output. Here he goes on a wacky,
- 31:36Speaker 3: fact free rant. And just imagine what sort of a
- 31:41Speaker 3: fringe dwelling loom you have to be to think CNN.
- 31:45Speaker 3: CNN is too pro Trump.
- 31:48Speaker 4: CNN is already owned by a right wing Trump supporter
- 31:50Speaker 4: and has compromised itself. Accordingly, the firing started right away
- 31:55Speaker 4: in that new regime. That's why Jim Acosta is no
- 31:58Speaker 4: longer there, and others are no longer there, and everyone
- 32:02Speaker 4: who remains has become much more careful in anything they
- 32:05Speaker 4: might even think of saying about Donald Trump. And now
- 32:09Speaker 4: CNN eagerly pays a Trump supporter to lie on CNN
- 32:13Speaker 4: every day and night for Donald Trump.
- 32:15Speaker 3: Firstly, CNN is owned by Warner Brothers Discovery. It's a
- 32:19Speaker 3: publicly traded company. It is virulently anti Trump day and night.
- 32:25Speaker 3: And the so called liar that Lawrence claims is degrading
- 32:29Speaker 3: the station is often the lone conservative on panels of
- 32:34Speaker 3: four or five pundits or leaning left. Yes, this unseemly
- 32:39Speaker 3: meltdown was all about Scott Jennings and EMSONBC ANCHA has
- 32:46Speaker 3: lost it because CNN has a loan conservative on some
- 32:50Speaker 3: of its panels to provide some level of balance.
- 32:54Speaker 4: Paying Scott Jennings to lie about Donald Trump is money
- 32:59Speaker 4: very well spent. Scott Jennings, who used to be an
- 33:02Speaker 4: age of Senator Miss McConnell, was not always a rabid
- 33:04Speaker 4: lying Trump supporter. When he first started appearing on television,
- 33:08Speaker 4: he was capable of criticizing some of the more extreme
- 33:10Speaker 4: Trump positions. But Scott Jennings figured out where the money
- 33:14Speaker 4: is and how he could get his own podcast, and
- 33:16Speaker 4: decided to become the JD. Vans of CNN. And here
- 33:21Speaker 4: is the single goofiest thing ever said by anyone in
- 33:26Speaker 4: charge of CNN in that network's history. The Lost in
- 33:31Speaker 4: America englishman who heads CNN said, quote, Scott's like d'Artagnan.
- 33:38Speaker 4: He's got his sword out and he's got about four
- 33:41Speaker 4: Democrats against him, but he spiked them all off. That's
- 33:45Speaker 4: much more like it. I think he's a worthy opponent
- 33:48Speaker 4: as it were.
- 33:49Speaker 3: Well, that statement is one hundred percent accurate. Scott Jennings
- 33:53Speaker 3: does typically take on four rabid Democrats at once and
- 33:58Speaker 3: comes out on top, not because of eyes or playing
- 34:01Speaker 3: on emotions, but because his sticks to the cold, hard facts,
- 34:05Speaker 3: something foreign to MSNBC anchors like Lawrence Now to a
- 34:10Speaker 3: teeny tiny little agitator four foot six Quinn Hobble, who
- 34:15Speaker 3: the leftist media love to present some sort of lovable
- 34:19Speaker 3: protester who's been victimized by ICE agents, but the footage
- 34:24Speaker 3: suggests otherwise. Let's look at what Quinn has to say
- 34:28Speaker 3: when speaking to the media and the behavior that actually
- 34:33Speaker 3: led to his arrest.
- 34:34Speaker 15: Only four foot six, and I can't see what harm
- 34:37Speaker 15: was I going to do to them?
- 34:40Speaker 3: Tell me, do you?
- 35:00Speaker 15: I decided that I was going to sit. So I
- 35:04Speaker 15: was sitting in the grass and my legs were just
- 35:07Speaker 15: barely in the driveway, and they came up, I think
- 35:14Speaker 15: there were six of them, and they grabbed me and
- 35:18Speaker 15: they started to drag me across the driveway on the ground,
- 35:26Speaker 15: and they put their foot or something on my back,
- 35:30Speaker 15: and something some part of them on my neck. It
- 35:33Speaker 15: was scary being dragged across the ground when you can't
- 35:41Speaker 15: see what's happening around you. They called Portland a war zone.
- 35:46Speaker 15: The only people that's making a war zone is ice.
- 35:58Speaker 3: Let's go back to Sanna and polling expert Harry Enton
- 36:02Speaker 3: had more bad news for their lifty losing at audience.
- 36:06Speaker 14: You might think, given that the Republicans are in charge
- 36:08Speaker 14: of both the House and the Senate, that a government
- 36:10Speaker 14: shutdown might actually hurt the Republican brand, but in fact
- 36:14Speaker 14: it hasn't. If anything, it's been helped a little bit.
- 36:17Speaker 14: Take a look here the shift in net popularity versus
- 36:19Speaker 14: pre shutdown among the g When we're looking at the
- 36:21Speaker 14: Republican Party overall, that brand actually up two points. That's
- 36:24Speaker 14: within the margin vera, but clearly it hasn't dropped. Come
- 36:27Speaker 14: over this side of the screen, look at the net
- 36:29Speaker 14: approval ratings for Republicans and Congress.
- 36:31Speaker 3: It's actually up.
- 36:32Speaker 14: Five points since pre shutdown.
- 36:34Speaker 12: So what we're.
- 36:35Speaker 14: Seeing here is the Republican brand in Congress has actually
- 36:38Speaker 14: improved somewhat compared to where we were pre shutdown, despite
- 36:41Speaker 14: the fact the Republicans control. And that's the math that
- 36:44Speaker 14: John Thune and Mike Johnson are looking at.
- 36:46Speaker 3: Yes, Republicans and Independents are not blaming the Republicans for
- 36:51Speaker 3: Schumer's shutdown. That's good news for the midterms for some it's.
- 36:56Speaker 14: Rallying the base for sure. Look at this, the net
- 36:58Speaker 14: approval rating up twelve points versus pre shutdown. But it's
- 37:01Speaker 14: not just with the base, it's also with the middle
- 37:03Speaker 14: of the electorate. Look at this among independents, it's up
- 37:06Speaker 14: eight points as well. So we've got a situation here
- 37:09Speaker 14: where Republicans with this shutdown are actually.
- 37:11Speaker 3: Rallying their base.
- 37:12Speaker 14: But it's also something that's not hurting them with the
- 37:14Speaker 14: folks in the middle of anything. It's helping them with
- 37:16Speaker 14: folks in the mill. And this is the type of
- 37:18Speaker 14: math that if you're Republicans you.
- 37:19Speaker 3: Like to see. Right, Yes, the math is mathy, but
- 37:23Speaker 3: what is the shutdown doing to the democrats chances at
- 37:27Speaker 3: the midterms?
- 37:28Speaker 6: So how do Democrats?
- 37:29Speaker 12: How are they positioned right now?
- 37:31Speaker 3: Yeah?
- 37:31Speaker 14: So, I mean, look the general congressional ballot, which traditionally
- 37:34Speaker 14: Democrats have done really well on. And if you look
- 37:36Speaker 14: at this point back when Trump was president the first
- 37:38Speaker 14: time around, Democrats are up eleven points. Look at where
- 37:40Speaker 14: it is now. Democrats are head but they're actually only
- 37:43Speaker 14: up three points. This is, in fact, the worst position
- 37:45Speaker 14: Democrats have been on in a generic ballot at this
- 37:48Speaker 14: point in midterm when there was Republican president in the
- 37:50Speaker 14: last twenty years, and this is no different from pre shutdown.
- 37:53Speaker 14: So Republicans aren't losing on this metric either. They become
- 37:56Speaker 14: more popular and they're actually in a pretty good position
- 37:58Speaker 14: for them historically when it comes to theire congressional ballot.
- 38:00Speaker 14: This is a concerning number for Democrats.
- 38:02Speaker 12: Are you're saying this is.
- 38:03Speaker 14: A concerning number for Democrats because it's considerably worse than
- 38:05Speaker 14: they traditionally do in midterm elections when there's a Republican president.
- 38:09Speaker 3: Harry, oh, dear, let's bring in documentary filmmaker and commentate.
- 38:14Speaker 3: Army Horoid's army. The shutdown isn't hurting Trump, not with
- 38:18Speaker 3: the base, and just as importantly, it's not hurting him
- 38:21Speaker 3: with independence.
- 38:24Speaker 12: No, it's not. In fact, the Democratic brand is so
- 38:27Speaker 12: low that they're actually bucking history. Historically, the governor charge
- 38:31Speaker 12: is always blamed for the shutdown, but that's not the
- 38:34Speaker 12: case here. Yeah, this is I mean, what do you want?
- 38:37Speaker 12: The Democrats have voted thirteen times to keep the government
- 38:40Speaker 12: shut down, and frankly, look you listen to Chuck Schumer
- 38:46Speaker 12: and what he's saying when he's decrying the shutdown. What
- 38:49Speaker 12: does he point to as a problem. He points to
- 38:52Speaker 12: Trump helping out Milay and Argentina. Really, that's a problem.
- 38:58Speaker 12: Mela Is reshaped the Argentinian economy into a free market
- 39:02Speaker 12: economy for the first time as a light to the
- 39:05Speaker 12: entire region that they will follow. That's a problem. He
- 39:09Speaker 12: talked about Trump dancing in Malaysia. Yeah, he was a
- 39:13Speaker 12: Malaysia cutting deals left and right. He was in Asia
- 39:18Speaker 12: brokering a peace deal between Thailand and Cambodia that is
- 39:22Speaker 12: a one hundred years old that's an older conflict than
- 39:26Speaker 12: Israel and the Palestinians. Yeah, that's what he's doing, and
- 39:29Speaker 12: that's what that's what the Democrats are decrying as a
- 39:34Speaker 12: problem with his shutdown. And by the way, the coalition
- 39:37Speaker 12: in Democratic Party, which has been strong so far, is
- 39:39Speaker 12: now frayings a federal union that is now telling a Democrats,
- 39:43Speaker 12: you guys better stop this soon. This is being a
- 39:45Speaker 12: problem for us. And at the end of the next week,
- 39:48Speaker 12: forty one million people will stop receiving food stamp benefits,
- 39:52Speaker 12: which is food stamp benefits. By the way, forty one
- 39:55Speaker 12: million people on food stamps. That in of itself is
- 39:58Speaker 12: a massive problem. That's where we stand right now. Reta.
- 40:02Speaker 3: Yeah, Yet that is a problem, and I think that's
- 40:06Speaker 3: something that deserves a national discussion. I mean, there's something
- 40:10Speaker 3: very sick in the country when you've got that many
- 40:13Speaker 3: people dependent on food stamps to feed their families. Now,
- 40:18Speaker 3: let's go to your beloved New York where leftist rabbis
- 40:22Speaker 3: are campaigning for Zora and Mandani as they are. Hi, Rabbi, Rabbi, Hi, Rabbi, Hi,
- 40:30Speaker 3: Rabbi Hi, We're among.
- 40:33Speaker 11: The thousands of Jewish New Yorkers who've been out door
- 40:36Speaker 11: knocking and phone banking to elect Zoran Mandani.
- 40:38Speaker 3: We're also rabbis.
- 40:40Speaker 2: We know zoranabile fight to make our city affordable and
- 40:44Speaker 2: safe for our families.
- 40:46Speaker 3: And for our neighbors, of our faiths and backgrounds.
- 40:49Speaker 2: As Jews, as rabbis, as New Yorkers, we believe that
- 40:54Speaker 2: all people deserve to thrive. Zoran agrees.
- 40:59Speaker 3: Ah Am Zauran A. Gray is what percentage of the
- 41:03Speaker 3: Jewish community do you think it is backing Zoren? Ma'm donnie,
- 41:08Speaker 3: he's made some radical comments. And these radical comments aren't
- 41:13Speaker 3: ancient history, They're very very recent.
- 41:16Speaker 12: Indeed, Hi Rabbi, I mean, Rita, you're more of a
- 41:22Speaker 12: rabbi than they are. One of them literally said they
- 41:24Speaker 12: don't believe in God. Okay, okay, what were bindical school
- 41:30Speaker 12: they go to? Exactly? That was so cringey. That was
- 41:34Speaker 12: for the first time I saw it, I thought it
- 41:36Speaker 12: was a Sient Live skit. But I knew Sara Live
- 41:38Speaker 12: wouldn't do an anti ma'm donnie video, so it couldn't
- 41:42Speaker 12: be that. It had to be real. Yeah. Look, I'm
- 41:45Speaker 12: ashamed to say that if you look at the last
- 41:47Speaker 12: three polls, uh, thirty three percent average, thirty three percent
- 41:51Speaker 12: of Jews in New York will vote fromm Donnie. That
- 41:53Speaker 12: is completely and utterly shameful. Maybe even more shameful is
- 41:58Speaker 12: that when you're listening to this video and they and
- 42:00Speaker 12: they go through all the reasons why they're supporting mom Donnie,
- 42:04Speaker 12: they didn't mention a single Jewish issue.
- 42:07Speaker 15: Right.
- 42:08Speaker 12: This is, by the way, that thirty three percent is
- 42:09Speaker 12: driven by mostly like you saw in that video, young women,
- 42:13Speaker 12: as I call the Jenta class. But I feel like,
- 42:16Speaker 12: if you're gonna be Jewish so you're supporting mom Donnie,
- 42:18Speaker 12: maybe bring up some Jewish issues. I don't know, why
- 42:21Speaker 12: don't you bring up an issue that I'm Donnie literally
- 42:23Speaker 12: said that the boot, while the boot of the NYPD
- 42:28Speaker 12: is on your neck, it's laced by the IDF. Yeah,
- 42:32Speaker 12: when you go as a Jew, whenever I hear that,
- 42:34Speaker 12: I go, oh, ne verright here next is going to
- 42:36Speaker 12: be horrible and terrible. And that's a perfect example of
- 42:39Speaker 12: what we're talking about.
- 42:42Speaker 3: And you say that as a proud Jewish man said,
- 42:46Speaker 3: we may all want, we may all wander how someone
- 42:52Speaker 3: likes Lauren can be so popular about to become mayor
- 42:55Speaker 3: of New York City. But you hit the streets recently.
- 42:59Speaker 3: And I think his next clip explains.
- 43:01Speaker 4: Why jails are so racistm they're so racist.
- 43:05Speaker 12: Is it racist for a judge to say, hey, you
- 43:07Speaker 12: have a history of violent crime, yes, and to keep
- 43:10Speaker 12: them because of that reason. Yes, your criminal history should
- 43:12Speaker 12: not play any role. What's well so No?
- 43:14Speaker 15: And I don't know if I know anyone who's never
- 43:16Speaker 15: committed crime.
- 43:17Speaker 12: Well, just get to commit crime. Does it make you
- 43:19Speaker 12: a criminal?
- 43:20Speaker 4: Right?
- 43:20Speaker 12: That the focus of the criminal system, the judital system
- 43:23Speaker 12: should be less on safety and more on racial equity.
- 43:28Speaker 15: That the judicial system should be more on equity.
- 43:31Speaker 3: Yes, you know it's the affluent New Yorkers who are
- 43:35Speaker 3: The biggest problem is that it's always the people in
- 43:39Speaker 3: the better parts of Manhattan who've got these wacky views
- 43:44Speaker 3: and they vote accordingly.
- 43:47Speaker 12: Yeah, and by the way, this is the reason why
- 43:50Speaker 12: Mamdani said he wants to abolish jails. This is what
- 43:54Speaker 12: he says. These are his words, and of course that
- 43:57Speaker 12: comports what you heard on that video. Judicial system is
- 44:01Speaker 12: racist and just system is out to get black people. Well,
- 44:04Speaker 12: this is why when Mamdani ran against Cuomo for the
- 44:06Speaker 12: Democratic nomination, he couldn't win the black and Hispanic vote,
- 44:10Speaker 12: because they understand the ramfications of those statements. I mean.
- 44:14Speaker 12: The other part of that video was after you watch
- 44:16Speaker 12: these crazy leftists talk about destroying and up and up
- 44:20Speaker 12: ending the judicial system, I went to Harlem. Actually the
- 44:23Speaker 12: best part is I asked this one person, I go,
- 44:25Speaker 12: if I went to Harlem, wiull they agree with you?
- 44:26Speaker 12: And he goes, of course they would. So then I
- 44:28Speaker 12: went to Harlem. Not a not a I was there
- 44:31Speaker 12: for hours. Not a single person there said that it's racist.
- 44:36Speaker 12: Not a single person there said to shoot abolished jails.
- 44:39Speaker 12: They specifically say that these kind of policies which makes
- 44:43Speaker 12: our city, ours, our neighborhoods more unsafe. They are on
- 44:46Speaker 12: the tip of the sword when it comes to radicalization,
- 44:50Speaker 12: of changing the judicial and policing in the city. They're
- 44:54Speaker 12: the ones who feel it more than I do in
- 44:56Speaker 12: the affluent Upper West Side of New York. That's why
- 44:59Speaker 12: he can't win Black and a Spanic build He doesn't
- 45:01Speaker 12: get it. He's so far removed from reality.
- 45:05Speaker 3: Well, Amy, he doesn't need it, because if the odds
- 45:10Speaker 3: are accurate, if the polls are accurate, he is going
- 45:13Speaker 3: to romp it in. Don't go anywhere. We're going to
- 45:15Speaker 3: go to a quick break. I'm going to come back
- 45:17Speaker 3: and talk about Donald Trump's day in Tokyo. Welcome back now.
- 45:31Speaker 3: Donald Trump received quite the reception in Japan. He loves Japan,
- 45:35Speaker 3: and Japan seems to love him back. The President lavish
- 45:37Speaker 3: praise on Japan's first female leader, Prime Minister Takaichi welcoming
- 45:44Speaker 3: her pledge to accelerate a military build up, and he
- 45:47Speaker 3: also signed a trade and rare earth still in Tokyo Army.
- 45:52Speaker 3: He's also going to be nominated for the Nobel Peace
- 45:56Speaker 3: Prize by Japan. So it's been a love in today.
- 46:01Speaker 12: Yeah, he sure loves that. When when when leaders say
- 46:04Speaker 12: they're going to nominate him for the Nibo Peace Prize.
- 46:06Speaker 12: That's his jam. Uh. You know they were late for
- 46:09Speaker 12: the press conference. It was so cute because they were
- 46:12Speaker 12: both watching the World Series. Hey, hey show, Hey, let's
- 46:15Speaker 12: go Dodgers. Look. Yeah, this is uh, this is great.
- 46:19Speaker 12: This is again, this is this is Trump at his best.
- 46:23Speaker 1: Uh.
- 46:23Speaker 12: You know, the the new prime minister is an accolade
- 46:25Speaker 12: of of of the former prime minister who loved Donald Trump.
- 46:30Speaker 12: He had a great relationship with him in his first
- 46:31Speaker 12: administration before he was tragically killed. And this is a continuation.
- 46:35Speaker 12: I think of that relationship with that four year hiatus,
- 46:38Speaker 12: uh in between with Joe Biden, and I think what
- 46:43Speaker 12: you see is you see him in action.
- 46:45Speaker 2: Right.
- 46:45Speaker 12: So, first of all, I think what hasn't been said
- 46:47Speaker 12: by a lot of people is that historically Japan has
- 46:50Speaker 12: really spent very little to nothing on defense, kind of
- 46:52Speaker 12: an outgrowth of of of of their their warlike ways
- 46:56Speaker 12: in World War Two. But they've been spending one percent
- 47:00Speaker 12: their GDP on natural fans. Well, he's going to get
- 47:02Speaker 12: them to move that number up to five percent. That
- 47:04Speaker 12: is game changing. That is natal level spending, and that
- 47:07Speaker 12: is exactly what they need to do to counterbalance, counterbalance
- 47:10Speaker 12: China's predations. And like you mentioned before, he has been
- 47:13Speaker 12: laser focused on the minimal rights deals around the world,
- 47:17Speaker 12: including with Japan and other nations in Europe, to create
- 47:20Speaker 12: this iron chokehold around China, the entire periphery on China.
- 47:25Speaker 12: He is setting them up to make sure that China
- 47:28Speaker 12: is not going to make its influence known in that
- 47:32Speaker 12: region and in the world.
- 47:36Speaker 3: And he got this reception, and you mentioned the history there.
- 47:39Speaker 3: The reception very different to what Joe Biden got not
- 47:43Speaker 3: too long ago. It really didn't have anyone of note
- 47:47Speaker 3: grating him when he touched down. It was a very
- 47:51Speaker 3: different fan fair this time around. And importantly, the President
- 47:56Speaker 3: also announced that Toyota is going to be spending ten
- 47:59Speaker 3: bis billion investing in manufacturing plants in the US. I
- 48:05Speaker 3: don't have long army, but that is a big win,
- 48:09Speaker 3: no look.
- 48:10Speaker 12: No question about it. And like I said before repeatedly,
- 48:13Speaker 12: like I'm not a tariff guy, but I using tariffs
- 48:15Speaker 12: as a tactic versus a versus a strategy, I'm all
- 48:20Speaker 12: for it. If you're able to use tariffs to force
- 48:22Speaker 12: people to invest in our country. Yeah, this is the
- 48:27Speaker 12: result of that.
- 48:30Speaker 3: Amy Horowitz thank you so much for your time, and
- 48:33Speaker 3: thank you for joining me tonight. I'll see you tomorrow
- 48:36Speaker 3: at eleven up. Next, it's Newsnight,
