- 0:05Speaker 2: This is the winder Panekey Show.
- 0:09Speaker 3: Good evening and welcome to the reda Panekey Show. Coming
- 0:11Speaker 3: up tonight. Former Liberal Senator Cory Bernardi joins One Nation
- 0:16Speaker 3: in another boost for Pauline Hanson's party. My panel, we'll
- 0:19Speaker 3: discuss that and the day's other top headlines. Also, why
- 0:23Speaker 3: are influences and comics hesitant to tackle the left to
- 0:27Speaker 3: let's be honest, give them ample material to work with.
- 0:31Speaker 3: I'll dive into that with Drew pavlou Blass. Streets piled
- 0:35Speaker 3: with filthy snow and bags of rubbish. As life under
- 0:38Speaker 3: Zorn Mandani begins to bite for New Yorkers, Kosher Gator
- 0:42Speaker 3: will have the latest from the US, including the Clinton's
- 0:46Speaker 3: forced to testify on their links to Jeffrey Epstein, and
- 0:50Speaker 3: later in the hour, Alex Stein joins me to discuss
- 0:53Speaker 3: athletes playing the race card and left is losing. It
- 0:57Speaker 3: features the top five moments from Grammys, including this joke
- 1:02Speaker 3: by Trevor Noah that could see the painfully unfunny comic
- 1:06Speaker 3: sued for defamation.
- 1:08Speaker 4: That is a Grammy that every artist wants, almost as
- 1:13Speaker 4: much as Trump wants Greenland, which makes sense. I mean,
- 1:16Speaker 4: because Epstein's island has gone, he needs a new one
- 1:18Speaker 4: to hang out with Bill Clinton.
- 1:20Speaker 3: So but first, former Liberal senator and Sky News host
- 1:24Speaker 3: Cory Bernardi will be the lead Upper House candidate for
- 1:27Speaker 3: One Nation at the South Australian state election. In a
- 1:31Speaker 3: statement to the Advertiser, Pauline Hanson said she had been
- 1:34Speaker 3: in positive discussions with Corey for some time and he
- 1:38Speaker 3: was an excellent fit for the party. Cory Bernardi said
- 1:42Speaker 3: One Nation was the only genuine and viable alternative to
- 1:46Speaker 3: the major parties in South Australia, calling Labor and the
- 1:49Speaker 3: Libs a uni party. Have a listen.
- 1:53Speaker 1: All the problems we face a result of the decades
- 1:57Speaker 1: of the two party duopoly, which had more entrenched about
- 2:01Speaker 1: looking after their own survival than the betterment of the
- 2:03Speaker 1: voters who put them there.
- 2:06Speaker 3: Joining me now is News Corps senior writer Patrick Carline
- 2:10Speaker 3: and former Labor MP Michael Danby. Michael, I'll start with you.
- 2:13Speaker 3: Corey Bernardi, I've got to say, is an excellent acquisition
- 2:17Speaker 3: for One Nation. Do you see him being elected in March?
- 2:21Speaker 5: I noticed Bronni last night called him a handsome boy,
- 2:24Speaker 5: so I think his good candidate. The One Nation is
- 2:30Speaker 5: following a very crafty strategy. I wouldn't be looking at
- 2:33Speaker 5: the Lower House. I think Pauline's got a bit excited today.
- 2:36Speaker 5: But I can see Bernardi being elected in South Australia.
- 2:40Speaker 5: I can see One Nation having ten or twelve senators
- 2:45Speaker 5: in the Senate and being the swing factor if the
- 2:48Speaker 5: Liberal National Party managed to hold twenty or twenty five seats.
- 2:53Speaker 5: So One Nation is serious. We're not in a reform
- 2:57Speaker 5: like movement a moment here in Australia yet One Nation
- 3:00Speaker 5: will win Lower House seats. But twenty seven percent, according
- 3:04Speaker 5: to the Redbridge pole is pretty formidable.
- 3:06Speaker 3: It is, and Patrick, We've had a number of poles now,
- 3:08Speaker 3: from News poll to Demo Steven Redbridge, all showing One
- 3:13Speaker 3: Nation in second place behind Labor on that primary vote.
- 3:17Speaker 3: And Pauline Hanson, her net favorability rating is well above
- 3:22Speaker 3: Susan Lee, well above the Prime minister.
- 3:24Speaker 6: Well, people have been asking he do you want to
- 3:26Speaker 6: be prime minister? Look, she talks about being the unofficial
- 3:29Speaker 6: opposition and all the ducks have come together, haven't they.
- 3:32Speaker 6: I mean, Corey Bernardi's a massive asset. He's charismatic, he's
- 3:37Speaker 6: good in front of a camera and face to face.
- 3:41Speaker 6: He's self deprecating, he can tell a joke, he can
- 3:44Speaker 6: bring a really human element to that right side of
- 3:47Speaker 6: politics on a national level, potentially down the trap.
- 3:51Speaker 3: And he recognized this trend early he formed the Conservative Party.
- 3:55Speaker 3: It didn't last, but he recognized early that the Liberals
- 3:59Speaker 3: were alienating their base and they were really abandoning those
- 4:04Speaker 3: core conservative principles and that there was a gap for
- 4:08Speaker 3: something else. And now that something else for him is
- 4:11Speaker 3: going to be One Nation, Michael.
- 4:13Speaker 5: As I say, reader, particularly in the Senate, the interesting
- 4:18Speaker 5: thing if you combine the Liberal National Party vote low,
- 4:22Speaker 5: though it is with One Nation, there's a swing against
- 4:27Speaker 5: Labor Greens, which is an other coalition, about five percent.
- 4:30Speaker 5: So what that shows you is that some of the
- 4:32Speaker 5: as cause seen in the reviews of Redbridge on this station,
- 4:37Speaker 5: that there's a swing of working class people to One
- 4:41Speaker 5: Nation as well.
- 4:43Speaker 7: Oh.
- 4:43Speaker 3: Absolutely, I think there are labor voters who are also
- 4:46Speaker 3: filling alienated for modern labor these days and looking at
- 4:50Speaker 3: One Nation now has been revealed former Victorian Premier Daniel
- 4:54Speaker 3: Andrews is slowly recovering from a damaging medical episode and
- 5:00Speaker 3: is in a very bad way. Sources told The Herald's
- 5:04Speaker 3: son that Dan Andrews experienced a neurological episode that left
- 5:08Speaker 3: him debilitated. We first reported on this late last year. Michael,
- 5:13Speaker 3: his condition has been improving with the help of an
- 5:16Speaker 3: intensive and ongoing rehab program. Do you know much more
- 5:21Speaker 3: about how he is and how he is improving?
- 5:24Speaker 5: No, I don't, But the neurological episode that left him
- 5:28Speaker 5: deduilitated is a code word for a stroke, and lots
- 5:31Speaker 5: of people recover from strokes, and I'm sure whatever we
- 5:34Speaker 5: think of his politics, people wish him well healthwise.
- 5:39Speaker 8: Yeah.
- 5:39Speaker 3: Patrick, Rumors that the former premier suffered a stroke, suffered
- 5:43Speaker 3: two strokes were rampant late last year. But it's been
- 5:49Speaker 3: exceedingly difficult to get anyone to speak on the record
- 5:52Speaker 3: about this.
- 5:53Speaker 6: It's amazing the secrecy that's surrounding this. We really don't
- 5:57Speaker 6: have a clue what's going on, except we have to
- 5:59Speaker 6: read between the lines. And you look at Dan Andrews.
- 6:02Speaker 6: He left politics in September twenty twenty three.
- 6:05Speaker 3: A young man. He left it as a young man.
- 6:07Speaker 6: Yeah, but the ghost of Dan Andrews as a politician
- 6:11Speaker 6: is part of the Victorian psyche. Isn't it, and continues
- 6:14Speaker 6: to be. You look at the way justin to Allen
- 6:16Speaker 6: started prosecuting a campaign for November. It reminds you of
- 6:21Speaker 6: Dan Andrews.
- 6:22Speaker 5: Has he got his statue yet?
- 6:23Speaker 3: By the way, the statue is coming. But I have
- 6:26Speaker 3: not witnessed in my lifetime in this country a former
- 6:30Speaker 3: politician who's treated the way he is, because, however divisive
- 6:36Speaker 3: polarizing a politician, maybe whether they were a prime minister
- 6:39Speaker 3: or just an MP, once they retired, they pretty much
- 6:43Speaker 3: go back to normal life and are left alone. Not
- 6:45Speaker 3: with Dan Andrews. He was not welcome. He is not
- 6:49Speaker 3: welcome in a number of places where we're talking about
- 6:53Speaker 3: golf clubs, restaurants, has been banned from that. Ill feeling
- 6:57Speaker 3: towards him is still there and still very intense in
- 7:01Speaker 3: some quarters.
- 7:02Speaker 6: It's visceral, isn't it. And I think it goes back
- 7:04Speaker 6: to the lockdowns of COVID. I think a lot of
- 7:06Speaker 6: us sort of feel ashamed or perhaps sort of can't
- 7:10Speaker 6: believe that we actually went along with being in prison
- 7:13Speaker 6: in our houses the way that we were. He had
- 7:16Speaker 6: a style that was sort of almost hectoring, and I
- 7:19Speaker 6: think we also look back on that and sort of
- 7:21Speaker 6: feel slightly embarrassed about it, and he's the.
- 7:23Speaker 5: Face during a Dominieri DOMINIU.
- 7:25Speaker 3: I mean, you know what, Victorians should feel embarrassed about
- 7:28Speaker 3: that episode because I remember writing about COVID every single
- 7:32Speaker 3: day and it was the only time in my media
- 7:35Speaker 3: career where I knew I was in the minority and
- 7:38Speaker 3: might be in the minority in the media. But most
- 7:41Speaker 3: pretty much everything I write is very mainstream. But during
- 7:43Speaker 3: that period, I reckon seventy eighty percent were all the
- 7:48Speaker 3: lockdowns for every restriction, for every mandate And maybe yeah,
- 7:54Speaker 3: they projecting that self lobing onto Dan andrews Now who
- 7:57Speaker 3: inflicted it on millions of Victoria riens. A. Let's move
- 8:00Speaker 3: on to the urban easy government. They're spending sixty million
- 8:04Speaker 3: dollars to cut interest rates on electric vehicle loans in
- 8:08Speaker 3: bid to reach their climate targets. Move allows consumers buying
- 8:12Speaker 3: cars like Kias or high Undai Evs at a price
- 8:16Speaker 3: below the ninety two thousand dollars luxury car tax threshold,
- 8:21Speaker 3: you can cut up to one percent from those sorts
- 8:23Speaker 3: of vehicle financing costs at the taxpace expense. In December
- 8:28Speaker 3: twenty twenty five, EV's accounted for just sixteen point seven
- 8:31Speaker 3: percent of total vehicle sales. Patrick for the government to
- 8:35Speaker 3: reach even the lower end of its twenty thirty five
- 8:37Speaker 3: emission target, the rate of EV UP techniques to increase
- 8:41Speaker 3: by a factor of twenty over the next decade. And
- 8:44Speaker 3: this is with all this market manipulation, Because this is
- 8:47Speaker 3: market manipulation. This is not allowing people just to make
- 8:50Speaker 3: choices according to what they think is best for them.
- 8:53Speaker 6: Well, it mightn't happen, obviously, but you go broader than Australia,
- 8:56Speaker 6: you go internationally. You look the major car manufacturer made
- 9:00Speaker 6: these brazen sort of promises to go all EV a
- 9:03Speaker 6: few years ago. They're all renegging on that. The world
- 9:06Speaker 6: is actually pushing back against evs. I mean, hybrids are
- 9:09Speaker 6: probably a more sensible choice for a lot of people.
- 9:12Speaker 6: But the whole EV thing really has the balloon has burst,
- 9:16Speaker 6: doesn't it it has.
- 9:17Speaker 3: I just think particularly for a country like Australia, Michael,
- 9:20Speaker 3: they are not practical. The fact that you need to
- 9:25Speaker 3: charge them, you need hours, you need these charging stations
- 9:28Speaker 3: and infrastructure. Sure, if you're living in Belgium and tiny
- 9:32Speaker 3: little you know you've traveled two k's to and from
- 9:35Speaker 3: work group Amsterdam.
- 9:37Speaker 5: They might be the ideal thing, but I think Patrick's
- 9:39Speaker 5: right if none of us are in favor of pollution.
- 9:42Speaker 5: Hybrid seems a bit of solution for Australia. But it's
- 9:45Speaker 5: like windmills. If they're so valued by people, why don't
- 9:49Speaker 5: people just let the market act on its own behalf.
- 9:53Speaker 5: You know, I'm in favor of renewable energy as well
- 9:57Speaker 5: as gas and coal.
- 10:00Speaker 9: Even you need coal.
- 10:01Speaker 3: To charge them, Michael, I mean you need the electricity
- 10:05Speaker 3: that comes from coal to charge them. And talking about
- 10:09Speaker 3: clean what goes into those batteries and some of those
- 10:14Speaker 3: mines and how they operate, some of those greenies in
- 10:17Speaker 3: Fitzroy or Bankstown might want to have a closer look
- 10:20Speaker 3: at how.
- 10:22Speaker 5: Old niger who were getting that stuff.
- 10:23Speaker 3: Out absolutely now returning to Victoria, just Into Alan Premier
- 10:28Speaker 3: just Into Alan has called out Victorian Liberal Party leader
- 10:31Speaker 3: Jess Wilson for taking part in the Midsummer Pride march.
- 10:35Speaker 3: She said, if you're a political leader turning up to
- 10:39Speaker 3: Pride on one day and cozing up to one nation
- 10:42Speaker 3: on the next, then you're not an ally, You're just
- 10:45Speaker 3: a liberal. Oh ouch. Her comments have been met with backlash,
- 10:50Speaker 3: including from Giggle co founder CEO Sal Grover, who said
- 10:56Speaker 3: sexual orientation is on the basis of sex. One Nation
- 11:00Speaker 3: is actually the only political party in the country defending
- 11:04Speaker 3: the reality of biological sex in law, which very specifically
- 11:08Speaker 3: protects lesbian rights. The hypocrite is you don't weigh into
- 11:13Speaker 3: issues you don't understand. That was aimed at Premier Justin
- 11:16Speaker 3: to Alan Michael. The Victorian Premier also shared a video
- 11:21Speaker 3: to social media on Sunday from back in October where
- 11:24Speaker 3: she used junk activists research including disputed transgender youth suicide statistics,
- 11:31Speaker 3: to avoid answering legitimate questions during a press conference. Really,
- 11:36Speaker 3: I don't know why she did that. I thought it
- 11:38Speaker 3: was a low moment for her. Why she'd want to
- 11:40Speaker 3: be promoting it again, and why is she picking a
- 11:43Speaker 3: fight with the Libs on this issue.
- 11:46Speaker 5: She's a complete socialist left hack.
- 11:50Speaker 3: How dare she?
- 11:51Speaker 9: I mean?
- 11:51Speaker 5: Has I challenged jacintri All on this program? Have you
- 11:55Speaker 5: ever read the cast review be a serious person and
- 11:59Speaker 5: read the terrible conclusions that they made in Britain about
- 12:04Speaker 5: surgeries to young people under eighteen to fourteen? Haven't you
- 12:08Speaker 5: ever heard of Cintererellan of young people being confused at
- 12:11Speaker 5: the age of puberty. That's what it's all about, not
- 12:14Speaker 5: because they can't, you know, thousands of girls who suddenly
- 12:17Speaker 5: want to become trans. It's really terrible, and in years
- 12:22Speaker 5: to come, the people who supported this, including to Cinderellen,
- 12:26Speaker 5: will be found guilty by public opinion of having imposed
- 12:30Speaker 5: a sort of Salem witchtroll on young girls, in particular
- 12:33Speaker 5: of teenage years.
- 12:35Speaker 3: Well, the Victoria has been really the epicenter in this
- 12:37Speaker 3: country of trans madness, the excesses of the trans movement,
- 12:43Speaker 3: from being able to change your birth certificate every single
- 12:46Speaker 3: year to this affirmation model where you can't question a
- 12:51Speaker 3: confused child's gender identity. You can't even really suggest perhaps
- 12:55Speaker 3: you should have some counseling for a mental health issue.
- 13:00Speaker 3: Have to put them on puberty blocker.
- 13:01Speaker 5: Ight away without any alternative.
- 13:03Speaker 6: But you've written about this and you've talked about it.
- 13:06Speaker 6: I mean, at this moment, there's a biological man in
- 13:09Speaker 6: Victorian Women's prison and all those female prisoners are very
- 13:13Speaker 6: unhappy about that. But that minority, right, that's individual individual right,
- 13:19Speaker 6: comes ahead or comes to discriminate against what's best for
- 13:24Speaker 6: the majority. And that's happened a lot. You look at
- 13:26Speaker 6: the treaty, which is center, and you look at the
- 13:29Speaker 6: transgender sort of arguments, that does happen a lot. The
- 13:33Speaker 6: very few get placed ahead of the very many.
- 13:36Speaker 3: Absolutely, and it's then the name of tolerance and kindness
- 13:40Speaker 3: and inclusivity. You've got these women terrified in prison, locked
- 13:45Speaker 3: up with a sexual predator with a working penis though
- 13:48Speaker 3: he identifies as female, and their cries have been ignored
- 13:53Speaker 3: by labor, by the liberals, by the prison authorities. It
- 13:56Speaker 3: really is quite shameful. Michael Patrick Carline, thank you so
- 14:01Speaker 3: much for your time tonight. Now I'll be delving into
- 14:04Speaker 3: all the lefties losing it and the Grammys after the break,
- 14:07Speaker 3: but let's have a little preview.
- 14:11Speaker 10: No one is illegal on stolen Land.
- 14:16Speaker 3: That was Billie Eilish claiming no one is illegal on
- 14:19Speaker 3: stolen land. Well, my next guest is keen to test
- 14:22Speaker 3: that theory with the pop star herself. Political activists and
- 14:26Speaker 3: commentator Drew Pavlou has started a GoFundMe to fly to
- 14:30Speaker 3: Malibu and move into Billy's multi million dollar mansion. After all,
- 14:35Speaker 3: no human is illegal on stolen land, as Billy Eilish claimed,
- 14:39Speaker 3: Drew Pavli joins me. Now, Drew, tell me about your
- 14:43Speaker 3: Malibu plans.
- 14:44Speaker 9: Please thank you for having me on RITA.
- 14:48Speaker 7: Look, I started the go funme and they actually deleted
- 14:51Speaker 7: my go funme, So I've started a new fundraiser through
- 14:53Speaker 7: Gifts and Go. I've had to start a new one
- 14:57Speaker 7: through gifts and Go because they took it down on
- 14:59Speaker 7: Go Funme.
- 15:00Speaker 9: I'm not planning on doing anything illegal.
- 15:02Speaker 7: I will just sit outside her house until somebody asked
- 15:05Speaker 7: me to leave. I think it would be important to
- 15:07Speaker 7: test this theory that you know, nobody is illegal on
- 15:10Speaker 7: stolen Land, so I.
- 15:11Speaker 9: Want to try test it out.
- 15:13Speaker 7: And I know she's got this beautiful mention in Malibu
- 15:15Speaker 7: that's worth six million dollars, So.
- 15:17Speaker 9: I'm gonna fly over.
- 15:18Speaker 7: I'm going to literally fly over as a non American,
- 15:20Speaker 7: and as we know, no one's illegal in soul Land,
- 15:22Speaker 7: and I'll just sit outside until somebody asks me to leave.
- 15:27Speaker 3: I think she will allow you to move in and
- 15:29Speaker 3: live with her, because I'm sure she's a woman of
- 15:32Speaker 3: her word. Now I can't believe go fund me took
- 15:35Speaker 3: this fundraiser down. I had a look at it. You'd
- 15:38Speaker 3: pretty much reached your target. So that's outrageous antics from them.
- 15:44Speaker 3: And do you expect to reach your target on this
- 15:46Speaker 3: new platform you've started.
- 15:49Speaker 9: Yes, listen, Rita, I was extremely persecuted. I started to
- 15:53Speaker 9: go fund me. I raised three.
- 15:54Speaker 7: Thousand dollars in one hour and that was enough to
- 15:56Speaker 7: pay the flight to LA and straight away they took
- 16:00Speaker 7: down on go fund me. So I started this new one.
- 16:02Speaker 7: I think we've raised a couple hundred dollars already. I
- 16:06Speaker 7: am going to do this, definitely going to do this.
- 16:08Speaker 7: And it'll be interesting to see whether Billie Eilish's team
- 16:10Speaker 7: actually allows me to move in. I think there's a
- 16:13Speaker 7: chance that they might try to get like a restraining
- 16:14Speaker 7: order against me or something like that.
- 16:16Speaker 9: Again, I'm not trying to do anything wrong.
- 16:17Speaker 7: I'm just I'm just going to be I'm just got
- 16:19Speaker 7: to film a meme outside her house.
- 16:21Speaker 9: But we'll see how it goes.
- 16:22Speaker 7: As she said, no one's a legal on soul Lands,
- 16:24Speaker 7: so she should open the doors of her home to
- 16:27Speaker 7: the entire world.
- 16:28Speaker 9: I think that's very fair.
- 16:32Speaker 3: And I expected to fully do that. I'd be shocked
- 16:35Speaker 3: and appalled if Billie Eilish is not a woman of
- 16:37Speaker 3: her word. Now, let's talk about what's happening closer to home.
- 16:42Speaker 3: Who do you see I know you have got amazing
- 16:45Speaker 3: traffic on your videos and on your takes. Elon Maskaz
- 16:50Speaker 3: retweeted you and shared your content a lot on EGX.
- 16:54Speaker 3: But who do you see as the biggest influences in
- 16:57Speaker 3: Australian politics on TikTok and Instagram at the moment? Are
- 17:01Speaker 3: they all hard lefties preaching almost exclusively to young women
- 17:06Speaker 3: or is the mix becoming a little bit more diverse?
- 17:08Speaker 7: Now good question. I mean I think abb Chatfield is
- 17:13Speaker 7: still dominant. Abby Chatfield and Purple pingers Jordan Vanderlem are
- 17:17Speaker 7: probably the largest online social media influences alongside Friendly Jeordie's
- 17:20Speaker 7: and they are all left wingers. And Abby Chatfield was
- 17:24Speaker 7: telling everybody to pay the rent on January twenty six.
- 17:27Speaker 7: I simply responded, no, I don't think I'll be paying
- 17:29Speaker 7: the rent. I already pay enough to my own landlord.
- 17:33Speaker 7: And that got ten thousand likes. You know, I think
- 17:34Speaker 7: people are very fed up with this kind of stupid hypocrisy.
- 17:38Speaker 3: It's a bit of worrying if that's the most influential
- 17:42Speaker 3: voice on TikTok and Instagram. Now let's move to comics.
- 17:47Speaker 3: One of the things that surprises me is that there
- 17:50Speaker 3: are so few comics in this country willing to tackle
- 17:54Speaker 3: the craziness of the left. There is so much material
- 17:57Speaker 3: to work with, and it's not really punching down. Is
- 18:00Speaker 3: it true because the left dominate the corporate world, the
- 18:03Speaker 3: entertainment world, the culture, and yet the comics really do
- 18:09Speaker 3: shy away from it.
- 18:11Speaker 7: Yes, Well, I think the left is still very culturally
- 18:13Speaker 7: dominant in Australia and I think I think we're maybe
- 18:16Speaker 7: five years behind America or five years behind Britain. You're
- 18:19Speaker 7: starting to see this huge antiquerk backlash in America and
- 18:22Speaker 7: Britain right now, but I think we're a couple of
- 18:24Speaker 7: years behind, and right now it's still very dominant in Australia.
- 18:28Speaker 7: And yeah, it is sad, You're you're completely right, like
- 18:30Speaker 7: people don't want to to, you know, offend the cultural
- 18:34Speaker 7: pieties of the left. And we saw this on January
- 18:37Speaker 7: twenty six when the left kind of in Unison pushed
- 18:41Speaker 7: the message that the country is fundamentally illegitimate and it's
- 18:44Speaker 7: on stolen land.
- 18:45Speaker 9: It's a kind of a it's actually a very.
- 18:48Speaker 7: Destructive and extreme message to be honest to say that
- 18:51Speaker 7: at the core of the country, the country is illegitimate,
- 18:54Speaker 7: it's on sool land.
- 18:55Speaker 9: It should therefore be abolished.
- 18:56Speaker 7: I mean, if you say that somebody has stolen some thing,
- 19:00Speaker 7: the implicit claim there is that they have to give
- 19:02Speaker 7: it back. I mean, you can't just steal my wallet
- 19:05Speaker 7: and then we'll do a once a year wallet acknowledgment ceremony.
- 19:09Speaker 7: If somebody, if something is stolen, you're saying that it
- 19:11Speaker 7: has to be given back. And that's the claim of
- 19:14Speaker 7: the left that Australia should not exist as a country,
- 19:16Speaker 7: that it's an illegitimate and fake country.
- 19:17Speaker 9: And I think that's actually really extreme.
- 19:19Speaker 7: It's a really extreme claim to say that Australia at
- 19:21Speaker 7: its very core level is not a real country, and
- 19:24Speaker 7: it's not it doesn't have a right to exist.
- 19:25Speaker 9: Essentially.
- 19:28Speaker 3: Yeah, there are so many self loathers among us, and
- 19:31Speaker 3: they're very loud on social media. They do give us
- 19:33Speaker 3: good content though, Drew, so they're not completely pointless. Drew Pavley,
- 19:37Speaker 3: thank you so much for your time tonight.
- 19:39Speaker 9: Thanks for having me on read. I really appreciate it.
- 19:42Speaker 3: Still to come lefties losing it, plus the later as
- 19:46Speaker 3: from the US, including the Clinton's forced to testify on
- 19:50Speaker 3: their links to Jeffrey Epstein kosher gator as the details.
- 20:04Speaker 3: You're watching the Reader Paney Show, and it's time for
- 20:07Speaker 3: Lefties losing it, And we'll be getting to our five
- 20:10Speaker 3: figures lefties losing it at the Grammys shortly. But first
- 20:14Speaker 3: let's check in with actor Peter dinkliche who recited this moving,
- 20:19Speaker 3: pointnant poem for Renee Good. This is not at all
- 20:23Speaker 3: cringe and crazyneck.
- 20:26Speaker 11: For Rene Paul Good kilbays on January seventh.
- 20:33Speaker 2: They say she is no more, but there her absence
- 20:37Speaker 2: roars blown like Rose I Will's flinched.
- 20:43Speaker 12: And frouse now bear ray the candles.
- 20:48Speaker 3: Oh dear, that's the same nincom poop whose activism saw
- 20:52Speaker 3: Dwarf actors miss out on coveted roles. Remember that Peter
- 20:57Speaker 3: Dinkley just put seven of us out of job. Dwarf
- 21:01Speaker 3: actors fury at Disney for canceling seven Doors from Snow
- 21:05Speaker 3: White remake because the woke multi millionaire Game of Throne
- 21:09Speaker 3: star said they were offensive. Yes, well done, Peter, you
- 21:13Speaker 3: selfish flog. Before we delve into the Grammys, let's check
- 21:17Speaker 3: in on NBC hosts Kristen Welker here she is interviewing,
- 21:22Speaker 3: if you can call it that, the Deputy Attorney General
- 21:25Speaker 3: Todd Blanche. Listen to the framing of this.
- 21:28Speaker 13: Question, mister Blanche, is the death of US citizens a
- 21:33Speaker 13: price the Trump administration is willing to pay to carry
- 21:37Speaker 13: out its immigration policies.
- 21:40Speaker 3: Oh, Kristen, you deserve to be schooled for asking you
- 21:43Speaker 3: a question like that. And that's precisely what happened.
- 21:47Speaker 11: Very confused about why the conversations about what you're talking
- 21:50Speaker 11: about instead of focusing on what really matters, which is
- 21:52Speaker 11: why in one city, in one place do we have
- 21:55Speaker 11: these problems. We deport ten times the number of illegal
- 22:00Speaker 11: aliens out of Texas than we do out of Minneapolis.
- 22:02Speaker 11: Why do we hear nothing out of Texas about any
- 22:05Speaker 11: of the same problems that we have in Minneapolis.
- 22:08Speaker 8: I'll tell you why.
- 22:09Speaker 11: Because in Texas we have the cooperation and support of
- 22:11Speaker 11: local law enforcement so that we can do these operations safely,
- 22:15Speaker 11: keeping US citizens and others protected and safe. That is
- 22:19Speaker 11: not what we have in Minneapolis.
- 22:21Speaker 3: Yes, the likes of the NBC's Kristen Welker want to
- 22:24Speaker 3: blame the Trump administration for the lawlessness and violence we
- 22:28Speaker 3: are seeing from agitators in Minnesota and the obstruction we
- 22:32Speaker 3: are seeing from the Democrat governor and the mayor of Minneapolis.
- 22:37Speaker 3: And that's precisely the line of celebrity virtue signaling we
- 22:40Speaker 3: were treated to at the Grammys, with the stars wearing
- 22:45Speaker 3: ice out badges and clapping each other's asinine comments. Here
- 22:49Speaker 3: are the worst of the worst, the top five lefties
- 22:54Speaker 3: losing it at the Grammys, starting with well, the man
- 22:57Speaker 3: who will be headlining the Super Bowl half time show
- 23:00Speaker 3: bad Bunny, and I'm sure I recall him promising not
- 23:05Speaker 3: to come to Trump's America and perform there because it
- 23:08Speaker 3: was unsafe. But he is in America collecting awards and
- 23:13Speaker 3: talking crap.
- 23:14Speaker 14: Are going to say, eyes out, We're not sabas, we're
- 23:36Speaker 14: not animals, we're not aliens, we are humans, and we
- 23:40Speaker 14: are Americans.
- 23:43Speaker 3: Well, you see, if you're talking about Americans in America legally,
- 23:47Speaker 3: then they have absolutely nothing to fear from ice. But
- 23:52Speaker 3: these dim witted celebs seem not to be able to
- 23:54Speaker 3: differentiate between legal and illegal immigrants, including the dude in
- 23:59Speaker 3: the number fourth spot of our lefties losing it at
- 24:03Speaker 3: the Grammys, Shabouzi, who was in tears as a deliberately
- 24:07Speaker 3: confused illegal and legal migrants.
- 24:11Speaker 15: Immigrants built this country literally actually, so this is for them,
- 24:19Speaker 15: for all children of immigrants. This is also for those
- 24:22Speaker 15: who came to this country in search a better opportunity
- 24:24Speaker 15: to be a part of a nation that promised freedom
- 24:26Speaker 15: for all the inequal opportunities, opportunity to everyone willing to
- 24:29Speaker 15: work for it. Thank you for bringing your culture, your music,
- 24:32Speaker 15: your stories, and your traditions here. You give America color.
- 24:36Speaker 15: I love y'all so much.
- 24:37Speaker 7: Thank you.
- 24:38Speaker 3: In the number three spot is a rapper I've never
- 24:41Speaker 3: heard of before who had plenty jsaih on the red
- 24:44Speaker 3: carpet and on stage. Cheries kilany I.
- 24:48Speaker 16: Really wanted to say, but I think they had they
- 24:50Speaker 16: needed some kuth on the carpet or something. I'm a
- 24:53Speaker 16: little couthless ruthless, but I think everybody, we're too powerful
- 24:57Speaker 16: of a group to all be in the room at
- 24:58Speaker 16: the same time and not makes some kind of statement
- 25:01Speaker 16: in our country. So yeah, it's brainless to me. Everybody
- 25:05Speaker 16: is inspired to join together as a community of artists
- 25:08Speaker 16: and speak out against what's going on, and I'm gonaive
- 25:10Speaker 16: it's a safe rice.
- 25:13Speaker 3: Now to the coveted number two position, and it's Billy
- 25:18Speaker 3: Eilish with one of the dumbest statements ever uttered on stage.
- 25:23Speaker 3: She claims here that nobody is illegal on stolen land.
- 25:29Speaker 3: If you don't believe in borders, Billy, then can anyone
- 25:32Speaker 3: be on stolen land? Think about it? And it's all
- 25:35Speaker 3: well and good to spew such absurd platitudes when you
- 25:38Speaker 3: live in a mansion behind big walls and gates with
- 25:42Speaker 3: armed security nearby. Watch here as the simpletons in the crowd,
- 25:47Speaker 3: including Sabrina Carpenter, clap like trained seals at Billy's profoundly
- 25:53Speaker 3: stupid words.
- 25:55Speaker 10: No one is illegal on stolen land, and yeah, it's
- 26:11Speaker 10: just really hard to know what to say and what
- 26:14Speaker 10: to do right now.
- 26:15Speaker 3: It's hard to know what to say. She went on
- 26:17Speaker 3: to say, f ice just so brave and so profound.
- 26:21Speaker 3: But she's not number one because this next dude, the
- 26:24Speaker 3: host of the Grammys, wins for saying something so silly
- 26:28Speaker 3: that he could see him suit for defamation and financially ruined.
- 26:32Speaker 3: I'm not sure this joke was worth a likely lawsuit.
- 26:36Speaker 3: Trevor Noah, that.
- 26:37Speaker 4: Is a Grammy that every artist wants, almost as much
- 26:41Speaker 4: as Trump wants Greenland, which makes sense. I mean, because
- 26:45Speaker 4: Epstein's Island is gone, he needs a new one to
- 26:47Speaker 4: hang out with Bill Clinton.
- 26:48Speaker 3: So and that cheap and funny joke may cost Trevor
- 26:52Speaker 3: Noah dearly because moments after the Grammys concluded, President Trump
- 26:56Speaker 3: posted this saying that the Grammy's the worst, virtually unwatchable,
- 27:03Speaker 3: and he had this to say about Trevor Noah's Epstein claims.
- 27:07Speaker 3: He said, I can't speak for Bill. It'll be Bill Clinton,
- 27:10Speaker 3: but I haven't never been to epstein Ireland, and until
- 27:13Speaker 3: tonight's false and defamatory statement, have never been accused of
- 27:18Speaker 3: being there, not even by the fake news media. Noah
- 27:22Speaker 3: a total loser. Better get his fat straight and get
- 27:25Speaker 3: them straight fast. It looks like I'll be sending my
- 27:28Speaker 3: lawyers to sue this poor, pathetic, talentless dope of an
- 27:32Speaker 3: mc ouch. And earlier today he doubled down on that criticism.
- 27:38Speaker 9: Are you going to sue Trevor Noah? Last night and
- 27:40Speaker 9: a post she alluded that something.
- 27:41Speaker 12: Could become right well, he said that he said that
- 27:44Speaker 12: I spent time on Jeffrey Epstein's Eiland, and then I
- 27:49Speaker 12: mean he's a latewet. This guy. He's a terrible I
- 27:52Speaker 12: think he's terrible. I thought he did a terrible job
- 27:54Speaker 12: at the Grammys, and thought the whole Grammys was terrible.
- 27:56Speaker 12: I watched part of it. It's not watchable, but he
- 27:59Speaker 12: was allowed he host. I'd say, not as bad as
- 28:02Speaker 12: Jimmy Kimmel, but pretty close. And no, he made a
- 28:05Speaker 12: statement about me and Jeffrey Epstein's I have nothing to
- 28:08Speaker 12: do with that. I have nothing to do with Jeffrey
- 28:10Speaker 12: Epstin let's.
- 28:11Speaker 3: Bring in Sky News contributor Kosher, Gaia Kosher. We're going
- 28:14Speaker 3: to get to the Clintons and Jeffrey Epstein shortly, but
- 28:17Speaker 3: let's start with the Grammys. And it's all funny games
- 28:21Speaker 3: until the president sues you for false defamatory claims. And
- 28:24Speaker 3: Donald Trump has had a great success in this area,
- 28:28Speaker 3: and he's got some massive payouts for these sorts of
- 28:32Speaker 3: false claims he has.
- 28:33Speaker 17: I think he's north of one hundred million dollars now.
- 28:35Speaker 17: And it all goes to the ballroom or his library,
- 28:37Speaker 17: which is funny. This one, legal experts say is tricky
- 28:42Speaker 17: because it really is the First Amendment thing where he
- 28:44Speaker 17: was making a joke as bad and unfunny as the
- 28:46Speaker 17: joke was so it might be difficult, but I think
- 28:49Speaker 17: most of the time trump strategy isn't really the legal merit.
- 28:52Speaker 8: It's just to scare them a little bit.
- 28:54Speaker 17: He wields that look tous sword now unabashedly, especially after
- 28:58Speaker 17: the lawfair he had to subject be subjected to. And
- 29:01Speaker 17: Trevornoah is an independent right now. He was hired by
- 29:04Speaker 17: CBS to host the Grammys, but he's actually an independent journalist.
- 29:07Speaker 17: And just even the nuisance of having to look up
- 29:09Speaker 17: and do defense and all that is why he's scaring him,
- 29:12Speaker 17: I think. But even if he doesn't launch it, just
- 29:14Speaker 17: that tweet alone where he was a loser and terrible
- 29:17Speaker 17: and a dull, not as bad as Jimmy Kimmel, that
- 29:21Speaker 17: will live on.
- 29:23Speaker 3: I mean, Trevor Noah is notoriously unfunny. I mean, I
- 29:26Speaker 3: can't remember the last time he said anything remotely amusing. Again,
- 29:32Speaker 3: so many of these so called comics these days, they're
- 29:35Speaker 3: just activists, and they're looking for applause, not laughs. Staying
- 29:39Speaker 3: with the Grammys, Billie Eilish's stupid, contradictory and hypocritical comments
- 29:45Speaker 3: have inspired a lot of parodies, including this My name
- 29:49Speaker 3: is Billie Eilish and.
- 29:54Speaker 18: Oh, I live in a gated community. But I just
- 30:06Speaker 18: think what's going on right now, my management told me
- 30:08Speaker 18: is terrible.
- 30:09Speaker 3: How could she say we are on stolen land and
- 30:13Speaker 3: no one's illegal. I mean, if you don't believe in borders,
- 30:16Speaker 3: then how can we be on stolen land because we're
- 30:20Speaker 3: all free to just claim any sort of territory as
- 30:23Speaker 3: we like.
- 30:24Speaker 17: But circular logic is so fun. It's like you're going
- 30:26Speaker 17: to marry go around. So that's what she's doing.
- 30:29Speaker 8: And just the irony was not lost on anybody.
- 30:31Speaker 17: Is certainly on her that she had to put in
- 30:33Speaker 17: that instagram that she lives behind a gated community. She
- 30:37Speaker 17: threw that in there, which is another thing that she
- 30:38Speaker 17: didn't realize, like that is the definition of a border.
- 30:41Speaker 17: She has a gated community, but don't look at how
- 30:43Speaker 17: I live, just look at what I say.
- 30:45Speaker 3: It was really not for me, absolutely.
- 30:47Speaker 12: Now.
- 30:47Speaker 3: There was some resistance to the wall to wall leftist
- 30:52Speaker 3: virtue signaling at the Grammys. Here's sports reporter Emily Austin
- 30:56Speaker 3: refusing to stand up on applaud anti Ice statements.
- 31:02Speaker 8: Hers now.
- 31:04Speaker 9: Downs now and she.
- 31:07Speaker 18: All the dream of one.
- 31:10Speaker 9: I love our Longhorce.
- 31:11Speaker 3: Sciences now in that room, in that industry. That takes
- 31:16Speaker 3: real courage, kosher.
- 31:17Speaker 17: It really does, and it's I think, in large part
- 31:20Speaker 17: possible because she is independent. Even then it takes courage,
- 31:23Speaker 17: which she is independent. I actually didn't know who she was.
- 31:25Speaker 17: I looked her up and she came to fame during
- 31:28Speaker 17: COVID as a university student. She's obviously very young, and
- 31:31Speaker 17: she was interviewing pro athletes via Instagram lives about the
- 31:34Speaker 17: COVID restrictions and mandates, and she recognized a void that
- 31:38Speaker 17: nobody in the mainstream media was willing to touch.
- 31:40Speaker 8: And that has now shot her up to a couple
- 31:42Speaker 8: million followers.
- 31:43Speaker 17: She's being invited to the Grammys, and so she knows
- 31:45Speaker 17: who her audience is and who she's speaking to. And
- 31:49Speaker 17: it really is a wide open lane for anyone willing
- 31:51Speaker 17: to do it. That's the funny thing. But it does
- 31:54Speaker 17: take a lot of guts because you will be shunned
- 31:55Speaker 17: from the mainstream.
- 31:56Speaker 3: It will, and it's not going to get her a
- 31:58Speaker 3: gig on ESPN. She's not going to pick up a
- 32:00Speaker 3: major broadcasting job because they're all in the group. Think
- 32:05Speaker 3: they're all a lot along with the Grammys and the oscars,
- 32:09Speaker 3: no doubt will be spewing the same nonsense. Now let's
- 32:13Speaker 3: hear from NBA coach Steve kerr who owns up here
- 32:17Speaker 3: two spreading misinformation. It's exceedingly rare for these activists to
- 32:22Speaker 3: ever be questioned about their hyperbolic statement. So good on
- 32:26Speaker 3: this OutKick journalist for actually doing his job.
- 32:30Speaker 19: I know you had mentioned that you know I isn't
- 32:33Speaker 19: rooting out violent criminals, but as he started taking five
- 32:36Speaker 19: year olds, since we know that ICE has at deed
- 32:39Speaker 19: arrested violent criminals, and perhaps some of those statements could
- 32:42Speaker 19: be seen as missus corner, possibly divisive, what would you
- 32:46Speaker 19: say to that.
- 32:47Speaker 20: You're right, I definitely spoke, and I knew that ICE
- 32:52Speaker 20: was arresting to criminals, and I think I immediately edited
- 33:00Speaker 20: because I knew that to your case, But my point
- 33:02Speaker 20: is that they're also arresting people and detaining citizens and
- 33:07Speaker 20: people who should not be being detained, and that the
- 33:10Speaker 20: manner in which they're doing it, as you see, is
- 33:13Speaker 20: riling everybody.
- 33:14Speaker 1: Up all over the country.
- 33:15Speaker 3: But that's just more fake news. Steve Kerr. Ice is
- 33:18Speaker 3: operating throughout the US, and yet it's only in Minnesota,
- 33:22Speaker 3: a state in an unprecedented, multi billion dollar fraud crisis
- 33:27Speaker 3: where we are seeing these violent daily protests. Let's look
- 33:31Speaker 3: at some of the numbers here. More than eighty eight
- 33:34Speaker 3: thousand ice arrests in Texas, more than thirty four thousand
- 33:38Speaker 3: in Florida, more than thirty thousand in California, no daily
- 33:42Speaker 3: rights in those states. Kosher he.
- 33:47Speaker 17: I didn't love the word misspeak. I think that was
- 33:49Speaker 17: a little bit weak in his apology, but I want nitpick.
- 33:51Speaker 8: At least he went further than most would.
- 33:53Speaker 17: And the real lesson for him is stain Lane and coach,
- 33:56Speaker 17: don't get into politics.
- 33:57Speaker 3: He won't listen to that lesson.
- 33:59Speaker 15: He won't.
- 33:59Speaker 17: That's the easiest and to learn, though, if only in
- 34:02Speaker 17: terms of the numbers. Yes, that is the story, and
- 34:05Speaker 17: I think the Trump administration has been a little bit
- 34:07Speaker 17: on the back foot in terms of the media narrative.
- 34:09Speaker 17: They have so much they can talk about that's going well,
- 34:11Speaker 17: but they are in defense mode and they're trying to
- 34:13Speaker 17: turn that around. And that is one of many points
- 34:15Speaker 17: that they should be pushing that. Minnesota is the exception,
- 34:18Speaker 17: it's not the rule. Even California thirty thousand is interesting,
- 34:21Speaker 17: and I think the reason why is Minnesota is within reach.
- 34:25Speaker 17: It's like a bluish purple state Trump wanted in sixteen
- 34:29Speaker 17: by only forty eight thousand votes or something of that,
- 34:32Speaker 17: and after that a couple hundred couple two hundred thousand,
- 34:34Speaker 17: whereas California is so far gone that even though the
- 34:36Speaker 17: fraud there and the legals there is a big problem,
- 34:38Speaker 17: it's like five million votes or so to cover. And
- 34:41Speaker 17: that's I think why they are fighting. They being the
- 34:43Speaker 17: left for this because if you remove two hundred three
- 34:46Speaker 17: hundred thousand illegals and some percentage of them are voting
- 34:49Speaker 17: in the election, you could potentially flip Minnesota.
- 34:52Speaker 8: And this is existential.
- 34:53Speaker 3: Absolutely, And these protests are not organic. They're well planned.
- 34:57Speaker 3: And even someone like Don Lemon, who was taught you know,
- 35:02Speaker 3: he was part of that protest. He wasn't just there
- 35:04Speaker 3: to report it, but his coverage showed that they were
- 35:10Speaker 3: mainly from interstate. The ones he was speaking to, he
- 35:13Speaker 3: seemed to so many of them traveled across states to
- 35:17Speaker 3: be there. Absolutely, it's not an organic protest. They're very
- 35:21Speaker 3: well organized and they are actively obstructing and attacking officers.
- 35:27Speaker 3: That is again, it doesn't fit the definition of a protest.
- 35:32Speaker 17: So That's why that whole of government approach, where you've
- 35:35Speaker 17: got ice, you've got border patrol, you've got the National Guard,
- 35:37Speaker 17: you've got the governor and the President trying to somehow
- 35:40Speaker 17: break bread to the extent that they can, and then
- 35:42Speaker 17: you've got the dog making arrests like those three people
- 35:44Speaker 17: and Don Lemon. That is controversial and some worried it
- 35:47Speaker 17: might backfire politically, but I think he is sending a
- 35:50Speaker 17: message the Trump organization and Don Lemon probably didn't realize,
- 35:54Speaker 17: in my opinion, how he has stepped in it.
- 35:56Speaker 8: He really is in legal trouble.
- 35:58Speaker 12: Now.
- 35:58Speaker 3: This is an incredible deal development in the Jeffrey Epstein saga.
- 36:02Speaker 3: Former US President Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton, the former
- 36:05Speaker 3: Secretary of State and failed presidential candidate, have agreed to
- 36:10Speaker 3: testify in the congressional investigation into the convicted pedophile Jeffrey
- 36:14Speaker 3: Epstein Coachhard. This comes as the Republican Ledhouse of Reps
- 36:18Speaker 3: was preparing to vote on holding both Clinton's in criminal
- 36:23Speaker 3: contempt for defying these legal summonses. So when we first
- 36:29Speaker 3: saw that, we that all this is never going to happen,
- 36:31Speaker 3: then never going to testify, But here we are.
- 36:34Speaker 17: This is big breaking news, and so what changed to things.
- 36:38Speaker 17: One is the House Committee voted to advance the contempt
- 36:41Speaker 17: of Congress process, and it had bipartisan support because the
- 36:43Speaker 17: Democrats have been jumping up and down about releasing the files,
- 36:46Speaker 17: releasing the files, and so there is a good chance
- 36:48Speaker 17: that they will actually be held in contempt of Congress,
- 36:51Speaker 17: and that vote was scheduled in short order. And then
- 36:53Speaker 17: the second thing is the legal strategy that we discussed
- 36:56Speaker 17: as it released to Don Lemon and his call conspirators,
- 36:58Speaker 17: as it even relates to the more frivd things like
- 37:00Speaker 17: Trevor Noah, they know, I think they really know that
- 37:03Speaker 17: this DOJ will potentially prosecute them if they're held in
- 37:07Speaker 17: contempt of Congress. Typically the dog doesn't do that for
- 37:10Speaker 17: political contempt charges like Eric Holder and many other people
- 37:13Speaker 17: were held didn't happen, But the Biden DOJ did prosecute
- 37:18Speaker 17: Steve Bannon and Peter Navarro and they both served a
- 37:21Speaker 17: few months in jail. And I think the Clintons know
- 37:23Speaker 17: that retribution, that word is.
- 37:25Speaker 8: A possibility, possibility, high bar.
- 37:28Speaker 17: For a former president and first lady, but it's a possibility,
- 37:30Speaker 17: and that's why they're playing. But it's going to be
- 37:32Speaker 17: closed door. So I don't think we're gonna get a lot.
- 37:34Speaker 3: Of call it retribution. It's called precedent. Now, the Democrats
- 37:39Speaker 3: went out just a barrow. They went after Bannon and
- 37:42Speaker 3: they put them in jail. And you can't behave like that.
- 37:46Speaker 3: You can't weaponize these agencies and say this is now
- 37:49Speaker 3: the standard or and if you don't meet it, you're
- 37:52Speaker 3: going to jail, and pretend they're exempt from it. So
- 37:56Speaker 3: let's go to New York. Now it's supposed to be
- 37:58Speaker 3: magical in winter, but things are not going well under
- 38:02Speaker 3: the new Socialists mayor. People are dying, literally dying from
- 38:07Speaker 3: the cold, and the streets are dirty with piles of
- 38:10Speaker 3: filthy snow and bags of rubbish. A prominent social media
- 38:14Speaker 3: influencer posted this video, writing, welcome to the zip code
- 38:19Speaker 3: with the highest taxes in the nation and the highest
- 38:23Speaker 3: piles of garbage and ice. We're good with this, well kosher.
- 38:28Speaker 3: They voted for this. This isn't of course due justin
- 38:32Speaker 3: Ma'm danny. We've had years of failure in mismanagement in
- 38:35Speaker 3: New York City. But it will probably be turbo charged
- 38:39Speaker 3: under this.
- 38:39Speaker 17: Socialist Yep, they did vote for it. They're getting it
- 38:42Speaker 17: good and hard. As we say, it breaks my heart.
- 38:44Speaker 17: My favorite sity in the world. I lived there for
- 38:46Speaker 17: sixteen years under Giuliani, Bloomberg and de Blasio, and snowstorms
- 38:50Speaker 17: always were a big test for new mayors, and they,
- 38:53Speaker 17: even Bloomberg was relatively centrist, messed up. He was in
- 38:58Speaker 17: Bermuda having a vacation one time and there was a snowstorm.
- 39:00Speaker 8: Dublasia was hopeless.
- 39:02Speaker 17: And you can't do that in a city with eight
- 39:04Speaker 17: million plus people, hundreds of thousands of cars and vehicles.
- 39:07Speaker 8: It really is a big problem to not clear the
- 39:09Speaker 8: streets competently.
- 39:11Speaker 17: Maybe some of that criticism is unfair to the leader
- 39:13Speaker 17: because there's more structural things that have to happen, but
- 39:16Speaker 17: ultimately that's what leadership is.
- 39:17Speaker 8: The buck stops with you. I will just say the.
- 39:20Speaker 17: Snow will melt ultimately, but Mam Dani's ideology will not melt,
- 39:23Speaker 17: and they are going to be living with that first
- 39:25Speaker 17: some time.
- 39:26Speaker 3: And this is supposed to be a mayor who's all
- 39:28Speaker 3: about compassion, about helping the poor, and you look at
- 39:32Speaker 3: the numbers who have died, who have died from the cold,
- 39:36Speaker 3: and that really is quite shameful for any first world
- 39:40Speaker 3: city to have it is more than a dozen people
- 39:42Speaker 3: died during a cold snap.
- 39:44Speaker 17: It is shameful and that is something that he should
- 39:46Speaker 17: never be able to live down. But people don't cover
- 39:49Speaker 17: that or talk about that.
- 39:50Speaker 3: And if it was a Republican mayor overseeing that sort
- 39:53Speaker 3: of waterwall, you would never hear the endy. You'd be
- 39:56Speaker 3: hearing about each one of these individuals, you would know
- 39:59Speaker 3: their names, not seeing that sort of reporting. Koshergator, thank
- 40:02Speaker 3: you so much for your time still to come. NBA
- 40:05Speaker 3: player Draymond Green claims racist treatment by a referee. Alex
- 40:10Speaker 3: Stein joins me, next, welcome back. Now, we've already seen
- 40:23Speaker 3: Warriors coach Steve kerr opining about politics, spreading misinformation and
- 40:28Speaker 3: pushing the same tired old leftist lines, and it seems
- 40:32Speaker 3: that sort of vacuous activism has rapped off on his players.
- 40:36Speaker 3: We now have the Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green
- 40:40Speaker 3: injecting race into a technical foul. Watch this absurdity.
- 40:46Speaker 2: I will tell you though, I find it very ironic
- 40:49Speaker 2: that I got a technical file for telling a Caucasian
- 40:52Speaker 2: referee now to put his hand in my face as
- 40:56Speaker 2: a black man in America, don't put your hand in
- 40:58Speaker 2: my face. And I said, hey, don't put your hand
- 41:00Speaker 2: on my face. So I thought that was the most.
- 41:03Speaker 9: Interesting thing of the night. Did he try to.
- 41:07Speaker 2: He said, Drakemond, this is your chance to stop talking
- 41:09Speaker 2: to me.
- 41:10Speaker 9: Bro, don't put your hand.
- 41:10Speaker 3: In una Gosh joining me now? Is comedian Alex Stein. Alex,
- 41:15Speaker 3: you're a basketball fan. Was that found motivated by race
- 41:20Speaker 3: or racial politics? Or is Green just playing the victim.
- 41:23Speaker 21: Cardia Rita, you know the answer to that question. He
- 41:27Speaker 21: is definitely playing the victim card. I think Draymond Green
- 41:30Speaker 21: actually leads the league in technical fouls, I believe, or
- 41:32Speaker 21: he's in the top when it comes to players receiving
- 41:35Speaker 21: technical fouls. And I'm not even kidding. So he's not
- 41:38Speaker 21: shy from getting yelled at by referees. And it's not
- 41:40Speaker 21: because of his race. It's because, honestly, if you look
- 41:43Speaker 21: at him, he's known in the league for being a
- 41:45Speaker 21: very dirty player. There's clips online of him kicking players.
- 41:49Speaker 21: So it was his bad attitude where he got the
- 41:51Speaker 21: tech and you know, to play the race card when
- 41:54Speaker 21: he's a multi millionaire living in a great country, you know,
- 41:57Speaker 21: having a very successful life. It just shows you rita
- 41:59Speaker 21: that everybody can play a victim, even Draymond Green, who's
- 42:02Speaker 21: won multiple NBA championships.
- 42:06Speaker 3: And playing in a league where they're all multi millionaires.
- 42:09Speaker 3: But of course, basketball, like a lot of other professional
- 42:12Speaker 3: sports in America, is dominated by black athletes, so to
- 42:17Speaker 3: be suggesting that he's being discriminated against because of the
- 42:22Speaker 3: color of his skin just seems incredible. Now let's move
- 42:27Speaker 3: on to Meghan mark Or. I love this story about
- 42:29Speaker 3: her unsold jam overflowing at Netflix headquarters. The New York
- 42:35Speaker 3: Post reports and Netflix staff are helping themselves to free
- 42:39Speaker 3: Meghan Markel products from her as Ever rage. Apparently there
- 42:44Speaker 3: are two storage rooms packed with as Ever products set
- 42:47Speaker 3: a source. They're literally just giving it away to employees.
- 42:51Speaker 3: One stuff, I walked out with ten products for free, Alex.
- 42:54Speaker 10: I thought the.
- 42:56Speaker 3: Supposed to be really sought after how to get scarce product,
- 43:03Speaker 3: But that's saying the Netflix is sacked with jaws of
- 43:06Speaker 3: jam and candles and wine and Meghan's famous flower petel sprinkles,
- 43:12Speaker 3: and they're having to give it away.
- 43:16Speaker 21: Well, you know, I'll be honest, I'm a It's kind
- 43:19Speaker 21: of my guilty pleasure. I like the Royal family. I
- 43:21Speaker 21: like looking into it, you know, for whatever reason. And
- 43:24Speaker 21: I used to think that Meghan was kind of a victim,
- 43:27Speaker 21: you know, because she really wasn't that accepted by the
- 43:30Speaker 21: people in London or England for that fact, or for
- 43:33Speaker 21: that matter. And I used to think, you know, she
- 43:35Speaker 21: was kind of a victim. But the more you hear
- 43:37Speaker 21: from her, and the more you just watch of her
- 43:40Speaker 21: on her fake show that nobody watches, she's just very unlikable.
- 43:44Speaker 21: She takes herself way too seriously. She's trying to sell
- 43:48Speaker 21: all these products that nobody wants to buy. So really,
- 43:50Speaker 21: I'm not surprised. And I want to like Megan Markle,
- 43:53Speaker 21: I really do, but she's just so unlikable, just like
- 43:56Speaker 21: all of her products that she can't even give away.
- 44:01Speaker 3: You fell for some of that early fake news, Alex,
- 44:04Speaker 3: because I can tell you when she first came on
- 44:06Speaker 3: the scene as Harry's girlfriend then fiance, she was adored.
- 44:11Speaker 3: There was nothing but adulation except from me, who could
- 44:14Speaker 3: tell from the start there was something not quite right
- 44:17Speaker 3: with this girl. But yeah, it took eventually people saw
- 44:21Speaker 3: through the act, but she had everyone full. She was
- 44:24Speaker 3: getting so much positive press that it would make your headspin.
- 44:30Speaker 3: Now Nicki Minach talk about not getting positive press. She
- 44:34Speaker 3: is being attacked by the media, by Hollywood, by the
- 44:39Speaker 3: music industry at the Grammys, all for daring to speak
- 44:42Speaker 3: out about the plight of Christians and for pledging her
- 44:45Speaker 3: support to President Trump, and we got here Carti B
- 44:50Speaker 3: claiming that it's actually her Carti B that the White
- 44:54Speaker 3: House is obsessed with Apparently they watch and observe everything
- 44:58Speaker 3: she does.
- 45:00Speaker 22: There's a president that he knows that I'm never supporting
- 45:03Speaker 22: him and stuff like that.
- 45:04Speaker 3: And it's like, I'd be funny.
- 45:06Speaker 9: Like, I know the White House watches my have a platform.
- 45:08Speaker 3: Yes, I have a big platform.
- 45:09Speaker 22: So it's like, I know they watch.
- 45:10Speaker 3: If they listen to what I say.
- 45:13Speaker 22: Might I might not say it the prettiest way, you
- 45:15Speaker 22: know what I'm saying, But I know they listen to
- 45:17Speaker 22: what I say. I spit the lesser evil I can't.
- 45:20Speaker 22: And people thought it was funny. People made fun of
- 45:23Speaker 22: my accent, people make fun of my speech. People forgot
- 45:26Speaker 22: the people's business and that, And it's like, I y'all
- 45:29Speaker 22: gonna see what's funny funny right now?
- 45:31Speaker 3: Whisn't It's really tough out here? Are things really that bad? Alex,
- 45:36Speaker 3: are you struggling in the right side of Texas?
- 45:40Speaker 21: You know, I'm doing okay, and I'm very thankful for it.
- 45:42Speaker 21: But ritally, you know, what makes me upset about this
- 45:44Speaker 21: clip is that before twenty sixteen, every single rapper loved
- 45:49Speaker 21: Donald Trump. They all rapped about him, they all wanted
- 45:51Speaker 21: to be like Trump. Nelly has a famous line about
- 45:54Speaker 21: wanting to be like Trump, and so all of a
- 45:56Speaker 21: sudden he becomes a president and they realize that they
- 45:59Speaker 21: have to create this narrative that they never like Trump
- 46:02Speaker 21: or they don't like Trump. So she's just being very disingenuous.
- 46:05Speaker 21: And I respect Nicki Minaj for actually calling it like
- 46:08Speaker 21: she sees it and just being honest. And she knows
- 46:11Speaker 21: that she's going to get attacked for having that opinion,
- 46:13Speaker 21: and to be honest, the more they attack somebody, the
- 46:16Speaker 21: bigger and stronger that person gets. So I really respect
- 46:19Speaker 21: Nicki and I didn't even really, you know, love her
- 46:21Speaker 21: music all that much. I mean, of course, I've listened
- 46:23Speaker 21: to it a little bit, but now I'm a big
- 46:25Speaker 21: Nicki Minaj fan. So it's just kind of crazy. The
- 46:28Speaker 21: more they try to cancel someone, I think, you know,
- 46:30Speaker 21: it has a reverse effect where actually they gain a
- 46:33Speaker 21: lot more fan Yeah.
- 46:34Speaker 3: Well, well her records of hit the top of the
- 46:39Speaker 3: charts again. But I think it's the courage that people admire. Also,
- 46:44Speaker 3: even people like me who don't care for celebrity opinions
- 46:47Speaker 3: and think they should stay in their lane. When someone
- 46:50Speaker 3: like Nicki Minaj comes forward, you know she's going to
- 46:53Speaker 3: be living skin in the game. She's going to pay
- 46:55Speaker 3: a price for anything she says. Politically, It's not like
- 46:59Speaker 3: the left where all you're going to get his adulation
- 47:02Speaker 3: and more applause from your colleagues and get more roles
- 47:07Speaker 3: for someone like Nicki Minach to speak out. We saw
- 47:10Speaker 3: the Grammys. You know they did everything to try to
- 47:13Speaker 3: embarrass her and mock her in her absence. Now, before
- 47:17Speaker 3: you go, they have canceled another comic. Ben Bankers, had
- 47:20Speaker 3: six sold out shows in Minnesota before it was all
- 47:24Speaker 3: canceled Alex because he joked about Renee Good. So that's
- 47:28Speaker 3: still happening. I thought canceled culture was over.
- 47:32Speaker 21: Well, just going back to my last statement, Ben Bankers
- 47:35Speaker 21: is one of the hardest comedians out right now. Ben
- 47:37Speaker 21: is a friend of mine and he's hilarious, and so
- 47:40Speaker 21: that cancelation actually got him a bunch of good publicity.
- 47:43Speaker 9: And just imagine yourself as a.
- 47:44Speaker 21: Viewer and you hear all this comedian got canceled, it
- 47:46Speaker 21: kind of makes you want to go see him even more.
- 47:48Speaker 21: So the more they try to cancel them, more they
- 47:50Speaker 21: try to cancel TACKI Minage, the bigger they get.
- 47:55Speaker 3: That is actually precisely what's happening, because everyone's looking him
- 47:59Speaker 3: up and seeing his clips and he is very funny.
- 48:02Speaker 3: Alex Stein, thank you so much for your time tonight,
- 48:05Speaker 3: and that's all the time I have. I'll see you
- 48:08Speaker 3: tomorrow night at eleven up. Next it's Newsnight.
