  Speaker 1: Late General, welcome the Late Debate.
• 0:08
  Speaker 2: Thanks for joining us on the Late Debate. I'm James
• 0:10
  Speaker 2: Macpherson with Lisdorra and Caleb Bond coming up. The football
• 0:13
  Speaker 2: fan who went early getting a tattoo to celebrate England's
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: victory in the European Championship. He got the tattoo before
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: the final had been played. Needless to say a little
• 0:23
  Speaker 2: bit of regret there. We'll talk about that guy a
• 0:25
  Speaker 2: little later. Plus, when we look at the papers, the
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: Greens want to end the independence of the Reserve Bank.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: What could possibly go wrong? And a very unusual smuggling
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: investigation in Tasmania. All of that when we get to
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: the papers. But first, the assassination attempt at the weekend
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: has raised a lot of questions, not least of which
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: how was it that a rooftop with a clear line
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: of sight to where Donald Trump was speaking just one
• 0:51
  Speaker 2: hundred and twenty meters away was left completely unattended. Well
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: Agent Snowflake, also known as the Secret Service Director Kimberly
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: Cheetle went on the ABC to explain it was all
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: a matter of workplace health and safety.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: Should that roof have been secure?
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: Period?
• 1:08
  Speaker 4: That building in particular has a sloped roof at its
• 1:11
  Speaker 4: highest point, and so you know there's a safety factor
• 1:14
  Speaker 4: that would be considered there that we wouldn't want to
• 1:16
  Speaker 4: put somebody up on a sloped roof, and so you know,
• 1:19
  Speaker 4: the decision was made to secure the building from inside.
• 1:23
  Speaker 2: You have got to be kidding me. They couldn't put
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: agents on the roof because it was sloped. My driveway
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: has a bigger slope than that roof. And it's funny
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: how you know the Secret Service agents had no trouble
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: navigating that dangerous slope when they were on the roof
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: after the gunman had shot Donald Trump in the side
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: of the head. There they are on that dangers roof.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: Call workplace health and safety basically a cliff basically. It's
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: also funny how the Secret Service agents when they were
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: poised behind Donald Trump during his speech, were on a
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: slope roof. Have a look at this vision. Here's the
• 1:57
  Speaker 2: Secret Service agents, the snipers behind Donald Trump while he's speaking.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: That looks to me.
• 2:04
  Speaker 5: Slow.
• 2:06
  Speaker 6: How would that has got to be a five degree
• 2:10
  Speaker 6: slope right there? Call it.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: I'm surprised. I'm surprised.
• 2:14
  Speaker 5: Could you imagine them being asked to do this?
• 2:16
  Speaker 6: Your mission if you choose to accept it, and they're like,
• 2:19
  Speaker 6: excuse me, did you just say there's a slope involved.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: I think those threes are the only two agents who
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: passed the slope roof, and we're therefore certified beyond that.
• 2:30
  Speaker 7: Well, this is this is the problem, and we know
• 2:32
  Speaker 7: the Secret Service it's.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: Such a terrible job.
• 2:34
  Speaker 7: Clearly they've unionized, right, and so they got their union
• 2:37
  Speaker 7: rep to call up Cheetle and say, look, we're not
• 2:40
  Speaker 7: going up on any slope roofs Miss, We're not going
• 2:42
  Speaker 7: to do it. And I love that she says, Look,
• 2:44
  Speaker 7: it was really about safety. We had to worry about
• 2:47
  Speaker 7: the safety of our often what the safety President Trump
• 2:52
  Speaker 7: not being shot in the ear because you were won't
• 2:55
  Speaker 7: to about the safety of your own officers, whose job,
• 2:58
  Speaker 7: by the way, is to take a bullue take a
• 3:01
  Speaker 7: bullet off of their lives for the prediction of presidents
• 3:05
  Speaker 7: and former presidents.
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: Look, it's one thing to take a Bullet's another thing
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: to sprain an ankle, Caleb, And we should point out
• 3:10
  Speaker 2: that Secret Service agents and government snipers have no problem
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: guarding the White House, where Joe Biden incidentally resides. Have
• 3:18
  Speaker 2: a look at this image.
• 3:19
  Speaker 4: Check out.
• 3:21
  Speaker 6: Slope on that guy is basically he's what is it
• 3:26
  Speaker 6: hang gliding at this point?
• 3:28
  Speaker 5: What's the one where you like.
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: Literally free falling? Basically, yes, that that.
• 3:35
  Speaker 7: Should not be allowed, but we shouldn't talk about it
• 3:38
  Speaker 7: too much because they might actually go and now flatten
• 3:40
  Speaker 7: all the roofs on the White House and turn it
• 3:43
  Speaker 7: into an architecture.
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: Can you believe this Kimberly cheetool though, I mean, she
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: oversees the biggest stuff up in probably our lifetime, refuses
• 3:53
  Speaker 2: to quit and then trots out such ridiculous excuses as well,
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: it was all about workplace health.
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: I know, it is ridiculous.
• 4:00
  Speaker 7: And again it opens up this question about whether or
• 4:04
  Speaker 7: not it was a quote unquote inside job.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: Knowledge of what was going to.
• 4:11
  Speaker 7: Happen, because I look to sit there with a straight
• 4:14
  Speaker 7: face and say, we couldn't send anyone up on that
• 4:16
  Speaker 7: roof because it had a slope on it. Meanwhile, they
• 4:18
  Speaker 7: were on the other roof over the other side that
• 4:20
  Speaker 7: did have a slope on it.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: We just left the one roof available that would.
• 4:24
  Speaker 7: Give someone a direct line of sight to the President
• 4:28
  Speaker 7: that was behind the crowd, so that the crowd.
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: Couldn't see that he was there.
• 4:32
  Speaker 7: It all just sounds too perfect, right, And a Republican
• 4:36
  Speaker 7: representative for Florida, Corey Mills, who himself is a former sniper,
• 4:40
  Speaker 7: has been.
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: Raising exactly this question.
• 4:43
  Speaker 7: He has it in the back of his head that
• 4:45
  Speaker 7: perhaps there was something deliberate going on here, but he's
• 4:49
  Speaker 7: a bit scared to raise it.
• 4:52
  Speaker 8: I have a very difficult time not leaning myself towards
• 4:55
  Speaker 8: this was intentional as opposed to fecklessness.
• 4:58
  Speaker 5: Wait, talk to me about that.
• 4:59
  Speaker 9: I actually heard you say this right the day after
• 5:02
  Speaker 9: which I wanted to ask you about what do you
• 5:05
  Speaker 9: mean intentional? You know, I mean an intentional failure on
• 5:09
  Speaker 9: the part of.
• 5:10
  Speaker 8: No, I wouldn't say an intentional failure on the part
• 5:12
  Speaker 8: of but I got to just you know, I sit
• 5:14
  Speaker 8: here and I scratch my head, and you don't want
• 5:15
  Speaker 8: to be the conspiracist.
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: You don't want to be the.
• 5:17
  Speaker 9: I'm telling you because that's what it's leaning to.
• 5:19
  Speaker 8: No, I know, and that's the issues that you walk
• 5:22
  Speaker 8: this fine balance of you're not trying to be a conspiracist,
• 5:25
  Speaker 8: but you look as you go how could this have gone?
• 5:27
  Speaker 9: So? But it's one thing if someone on the street
• 5:29
  Speaker 9: says it, it's not I mean you Cormill's member of Congress,
• 5:32
  Speaker 9: former sniper. You saying it, I mean, it makes my
• 5:36
  Speaker 9: eyebrows go up.
• 5:38
  Speaker 7: I didn't actually see her eyebrows go up, and that
• 5:40
  Speaker 7: clip to me perfectly honest. Maybe she's had botox, but
• 5:43
  Speaker 7: but you know, she says right at the end, she
• 5:44
  Speaker 7: lets the game away a former sniper.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, when a former sniper is.
• 5:49
  Speaker 7: Asking those questions, maybe we should pay a little bit
• 5:52
  Speaker 7: of attention.
• 5:52
  Speaker 6: Yeah, he said he's done thousands of advanced teams. He's
• 5:56
  Speaker 6: done thousands of these. He's the sniper. He said he's
• 6:01
  Speaker 6: done it thousands of times himself. So this guy knows
• 6:05
  Speaker 6: what he's talking about. And the prevailing question is, so
• 6:10
  Speaker 6: we knew that the cops knew he was there. One
• 6:12
  Speaker 6: of them even talked to him. We knew that the
• 6:14
  Speaker 6: Secret Service had been alerted by the cops that they
• 6:17
  Speaker 6: were there, and this sniper was well within their scope.
• 6:21
  Speaker 6: They knew he was there too. Nothing was done to
• 6:24
  Speaker 6: neutralize the threat. You'd think the least you could do
• 6:28
  Speaker 6: in that situation is get Donald Trump off stage. You
• 6:34
  Speaker 6: know that this guy's an imminent threat. You know where
• 6:37
  Speaker 6: he used, He's got a direct.
• 6:38
  Speaker 5: Line of sight. He is in perfect position.
• 6:41
  Speaker 6: Andy has a rifle with a scope attached, so you
• 6:44
  Speaker 6: know what he's there to do. The very least you
• 6:47
  Speaker 6: can do is not leave the president a sitting duck
• 6:51
  Speaker 6: on the stage, and that is what they did.
• 6:55
  Speaker 5: Also, does someone want to explain to.
• 6:57
  Speaker 6: Me why in the ten days before this shooting occurred
• 7:03
  Speaker 6: Donald J. Trump's truth social stocks were bet against like
• 7:09
  Speaker 6: you wouldn't believe.
• 7:10
  Speaker 5: Check out this graph. They skyrocketed.
• 7:14
  Speaker 6: The shorts on this stock skyrocketed the week before the hit.
• 7:19
  Speaker 6: Shorts went from seven million to fifteen million between July
• 7:24
  Speaker 6: first and July twelfth, meaning will certainly strongly suggesting people
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: or large organizations were predicting that by Monday the stock
• 7:35
  Speaker 6: would plummet, something that would have undoubtedly happened had Trump
• 7:42
  Speaker 6: died in Pennsylvania.
• 7:44
  Speaker 5: So again, another very big question to be asking.
• 7:47
  Speaker 6: Ourselves, since we know, hey, follow the money and you
• 7:50
  Speaker 6: usually find some pretty good answers, is who knew who
• 7:54
  Speaker 6: knew to short those stocks and why did they do so.
• 7:59
  Speaker 6: This reminds me of the day before nine to eleven,
• 8:03
  Speaker 6: when investors were tipped off and bet against United Airlines
• 8:08
  Speaker 6: and American Airlines, the two biggest, most successful airlines in America.
• 8:14
  Speaker 5: Their stocks just plummeted. Why how did these people know?
• 8:19
  Speaker 6: And an investigation found out who had, in fact obviously
• 8:23
  Speaker 6: known something and put out a well placed newsletter in
• 8:27
  Speaker 6: time for investors to be able to do this to
• 8:30
  Speaker 6: miraculously bet against these two major airlines the day before,
• 8:35
  Speaker 6: because obviously they took a major hit post nine to eleven.
• 8:40
  Speaker 6: I just think this is beyond conspiracy theory, Congressman Cory.
• 8:47
  Speaker 5: Anyone who can.
• 8:49
  Speaker 6: Just simply look at the facts at this point has
• 8:51
  Speaker 6: to know this guy can't have been acting alone.
• 8:54
  Speaker 5: It's literally impossible.
• 8:57
  Speaker 6: And the narrative that people are being asked to believe
• 9:00
  Speaker 6: that this twenty year old with no history of political
• 9:05
  Speaker 6: extremism or extremism of any kind, actually could scale the
• 9:10
  Speaker 6: roof with a rifle, take a shot unintercepted by anyone,
• 9:16
  Speaker 6: endserved everything observed by everyone, and the only political thing
• 9:22
  Speaker 6: he'd ever done in his entire life was some weeks
• 9:25
  Speaker 6: before register as a Republican, and we're supposed to believe
• 9:30
  Speaker 6: that this guy was just some radicalized political nutjob. I'm sorry,
• 9:35
  Speaker 6: there's a lot of things that aren't adding up here,
• 9:38
  Speaker 6: including why they took the kill shot on this guy
• 9:41
  Speaker 6: when they could have easily before he shot at anyone,
• 9:45
  Speaker 6: simply taken one of his arms out.
• 9:47
  Speaker 5: He wouldn't have been.
• 9:48
  Speaker 6: Able to take a shot, then neutralize the threat, and
• 9:51
  Speaker 6: then we could have heard from him what the heck
• 9:54
  Speaker 6: was going on, unless, of course, whoever was really behind it,
• 9:58
  Speaker 6: if we're rolling with this theory, took him out much
• 10:02
  Speaker 6: like they did Oswald back in the days of JFK.
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: Well, it's certainly hard to believe the Secret Service could
• 10:08
  Speaker 2: be this inept. New vision continues to surface of them
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: trying to deal with the situation. Have a look at this.
• 10:15
  Speaker 2: This is the Secret Service and police trying to get
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: to where the shooter was. Talk about ham fisted.
• 10:26
  Speaker 10: Take it out like you mean.
• 10:45
  Speaker 2: Now? Does that look like a crack security team for you?
• 10:50
  Speaker 1: Get out, get out the bullbar and.
• 10:53
  Speaker 6: Go for now.
• 10:54
  Speaker 7: It's just look if you if we did not have
• 10:57
  Speaker 7: this stuff actually happened, you couldn't make it upul not
• 11:00
  Speaker 7: wish to live in a period of time, in a
• 11:03
  Speaker 7: period of history where I could get to sit on
• 11:06
  Speaker 7: live television every night and just talk about the weirder
• 11:10
  Speaker 7: and weirder and weirder and weirder stuff that keeps happening
• 11:13
  Speaker 7: in the US, particularly with relation to this election, and
• 11:16
  Speaker 7: of course the president himself, Joe Biden has been asked
• 11:21
  Speaker 7: about what's gone on here and his dealings with the
• 11:24
  Speaker 7: Secret Service post Trump being shot in the ear, and
• 11:28
  Speaker 7: you don't get a lot of confidence out of what
• 11:30
  Speaker 7: Biden said about it all, either because he was asked
• 11:33
  Speaker 7: in an interview until this point. Of course, Cheatle has
• 11:36
  Speaker 7: now done an interview interview, but she hadn't when Biden
• 11:39
  Speaker 7: was interviewed and he was asked, why haven't we heard
• 11:42
  Speaker 7: publicly from Cheatle and.
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: The Secret Service?
• 11:45
  Speaker 7: But also more specifically, have you spoken to Cheatle? Pay
• 11:50
  Speaker 7: very close attention here to the person that Biden claims
• 11:55
  Speaker 7: he had spoken to side note, it ain't a woman.
• 12:00
  Speaker 3: Is it acceptable that you have still not heard at
• 12:02
  Speaker 3: least publicly from the Secret Service?
• 12:04
  Speaker 2: Directing I've heard Jehan? Have you heard from her publicly?
• 12:10
  Speaker 3: Public grafts sat down in a situation room downstairs, Secret Service,
• 12:14
  Speaker 3: the FBI and that security agencies, the Homeland Security, all
• 12:18
  Speaker 3: the major elements.
• 12:21
  Speaker 7: Oh, I've heard from him. I don't think it can
• 12:25
  Speaker 7: get him in depth. You were looking at Cheatle or
• 12:29
  Speaker 7: speaking to Cheatle on the phone and you notice that
• 12:31
  Speaker 7: the woman that was appointed basically by your wife and
• 12:35
  Speaker 7: her stuff, and you're not aware.
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: That the person leading the Secret Service is a woman.
• 12:39
  Speaker 2: Did you notice how the NBC interviewer ran cover for Bodle.
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: It's like very corrected.
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: To be fair, no one in the Biden White House
• 12:46
  Speaker 2: really is sure what a woman is anyway.
• 12:49
  Speaker 5: Yeah, and we don't want to assume her gender.
• 12:53
  Speaker 6: But the fact that everyone still has their jobs, not
• 12:56
  Speaker 6: a single head has rolled, no one has resigned in disgrace.
• 13:00
  Speaker 5: He saw them there trying to ram down a fence.
• 13:03
  Speaker 6: They had locked themselves out of the very area in
• 13:08
  Speaker 6: which security should have been the tightest, and they're like quick,
• 13:11
  Speaker 6: got to get to the shooter.
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: Just keep ramming the fence.
• 13:15
  Speaker 6: There was actually another fence after that one as well,
• 13:17
  Speaker 6: and so they had to do it the second time.
• 13:20
  Speaker 6: So the Secret Service had literally locked themselves out of
• 13:24
  Speaker 6: the red zone, the most the most dangerous zone. I'm
• 13:28
  Speaker 6: telling you, the fact that nobody has lost their job already,
• 13:33
  Speaker 6: that is that tells you something is very wrong here,
• 13:37
  Speaker 6: Something is very very subt.
• 13:40
  Speaker 7: I always thought, you know, working as a journalist, that
• 13:43
  Speaker 7: my backup option. If I thought that my career might
• 13:47
  Speaker 7: be in the toilet was to go to the ABC,
• 13:49
  Speaker 7: and then I would have a job for life, because of.
• 13:51
  Speaker 5: Course, he can you really think they take you per?
• 13:55
  Speaker 7: You just do a JD vance and do a mere
• 13:56
  Speaker 7: culper and I've come to the.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: Son.
• 14:01
  Speaker 7: I'll go over to the ABC and then I'll have
• 14:03
  Speaker 7: a job for life, nothing to worry about. Increasingly, I'm thinking,
• 14:06
  Speaker 7: if all this goes up the Crapper, maybe I should
• 14:08
  Speaker 7: just go and join the Secret Service, because I.
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: Mean it sounds like to shelter over there.
• 14:14
  Speaker 2: Anyone could get a job there. So the question remains,
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: how on Earth did a twenty year old d weeby
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: kid manage to get up onto a rooftop where Secret
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: Service agents feared to tread lest they breach workplace health
• 14:26
  Speaker 2: and safety and rules. Well, the answer has been supplied.
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: He had helped from the Iranians. Apparently. How convenient that
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: news has just been dropped that the Biden administration received
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: information some weeks ago from a quote human source that
• 14:41
  Speaker 2: the Iranians were planning on assassinating Donald Trump. Evidently they
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: had warned the Secret Service and Trump's campaign and the
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: Secret Service. This is my favorite part of this story.
• 14:52
  Speaker 2: They had boosted Trump's security of this terror threat. So
• 14:57
  Speaker 2: I ask you, if that was the boosted security, imagine
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: what the B team would have been like.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: What was it like before?
• 15:04
  Speaker 6: If that's the booster, probably all women, just those women
• 15:08
  Speaker 6: fumbling around trying to figure out how to holmster a pisiness.
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: Now, of course, back in twenty twenty, Trump had the
• 15:14
  Speaker 2: head of the Iranian Islamic Revolution Regard assassinated, So it's
• 15:18
  Speaker 2: no secret that the Iranians would love payback on Donald Trump.
• 15:21
  Speaker 2: But at the end of this report, conveniently, it says
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: there is currently no connection between the Iranian plot and
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: to the weekend shooter Thomas Matthew Crooks, according to several
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: people briefed on the matter, So at the moment, there's
• 15:34
  Speaker 2: no connection, but you know, just keep that as a
• 15:37
  Speaker 2: possibility rather than speculate on an inside job.
• 15:40
  Speaker 5: First it wasn't so true. Now it's Iran.
• 15:44
  Speaker 6: This is the definition, ladies and gentlemen, of escalating quickly.
• 15:49
  Speaker 7: But I mean, if it was Iran, they don't need
• 15:51
  Speaker 7: to call in some like weak, little weedy, twenty year
• 15:55
  Speaker 7: old white boy who looks like he had no friends
• 15:58
  Speaker 7: at school. Just in the Hooty's right. I mean they've
• 16:01
  Speaker 7: got all these people on speed dial. They fund all
• 16:03
  Speaker 7: of them as if he's the bloke they go for.
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: We speaking of the Houties, I mean the Secret Service
• 16:07
  Speaker 2: could have borrowed a drone that might have helped.
• 16:10
  Speaker 1: It could have been helpful.
• 16:11
  Speaker 6: I just find it interesting that the headlines are now
• 16:14
  Speaker 6: featuring Iran regarding this plot to get rid of Trump,
• 16:18
  Speaker 6: when just hours earlier the new VP nominee had said,
• 16:24
  Speaker 6: we've got to stop taking it easy on Iran and
• 16:27
  Speaker 6: just go in there and let it rip.
• 16:32
  Speaker 11: A lot of people recognize that we need to do
• 16:34
  Speaker 11: something with Iran, but not these weak little bombing runs.
• 16:37
  Speaker 11: If you're going to punch the Iranians, you punch a barrot.
• 16:39
  Speaker 11: And that's what he did when he took out some
• 16:40
  Speaker 11: of the money. By the way that action, people said
• 16:43
  Speaker 11: that it would lead to broad a war, it actually
• 16:45
  Speaker 11: brought peace and actually checked the Uranians and slowed them.
• 16:49
  Speaker 6: Down a little bit coincidence, I think. Not moving on
• 16:54
  Speaker 6: to RFK Junior now, because he has been long since
• 16:59
  Speaker 6: a friend of Trump, despite running against him obviously first
• 17:03
  Speaker 6: for the DAMS, then as an independent well, Trump obviously
• 17:07
  Speaker 6: gave him a call after he'd dodged a bullet quite literally,
• 17:13
  Speaker 6: and somehow this entire call was filmed and leaked onto
• 17:19
  Speaker 6: the internet. For some strange reason, RFK had President Donald
• 17:23
  Speaker 6: Trump on speakerphone and didn't think.
• 17:27
  Speaker 5: To shut off filming. Here's a bit of it.
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: Could just turned my head to show the jib and
• 17:34
  Speaker 1: something wrapped me.
• 17:35
  Speaker 3: It sounded like a.
• 17:36
  Speaker 6: Giant, like the world's largest measido and it was.
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: It was a bullet over you know what?
• 17:44
  Speaker 3: Did they call it an AR fifteen or something?
• 17:46
  Speaker 6: As a big guy for shame RFK with friends like these,
• 17:52
  Speaker 6: who needs enemies. The entirety of the call was leaked
• 17:55
  Speaker 6: online and they discussed a great many other.
• 17:58
  Speaker 5: Things as well.
• 17:59
  Speaker 6: And Trump is such a good friend to RFK that
• 18:02
  Speaker 6: he has said on his social network platform because he
• 18:08
  Speaker 6: refuses to use any others. Still, in light of what
• 18:11
  Speaker 6: is going on in the world today, I believe it
• 18:13
  Speaker 6: is imperative that Robert F. Kennedy Junior receives Secret Service
• 18:17
  Speaker 6: protection immediately. Given the history of the Kennedy family. This
• 18:21
  Speaker 6: is the obvious right thing to do. Because, of course
• 18:24
  Speaker 6: RFK has been refused up until this point, despite the
• 18:28
  Speaker 6: fact that he's not doing badly in the polls and
• 18:30
  Speaker 6: is legitimately running and therefore needs security like everybody else does.
• 18:36
  Speaker 6: Trump still went into bat for him after this terrible,
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: terrible lead.
• 18:41
  Speaker 1: It's extraordinary.
• 18:43
  Speaker 7: Look, the first rule of talking to someone on speaker
• 18:45
  Speaker 7: phone is that you tell them that they are on speaker.
• 18:48
  Speaker 5: Phone, how many other people are in the race thing to.
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: Do and also being recorded by a third party right video, because.
• 18:56
  Speaker 7: He has said RFK Junior has said that he profusely
• 19:00
  Speaker 7: apologizes whatever, that he had a third party videographer in
• 19:05
  Speaker 7: the room who was there when he took the phone call,
• 19:07
  Speaker 7: and then obviously at some point via someone, that video
• 19:11
  Speaker 7: was leaked. Now, if you get a phone call from
• 19:14
  Speaker 7: Donald Trump, it's not all that often you get a
• 19:15
  Speaker 7: phone call from Donald Trump, particularly just after he's been
• 19:19
  Speaker 7: shot in the ear. Not only would you not talk
• 19:22
  Speaker 7: to him on speakerphone without letting him know you were
• 19:25
  Speaker 7: doing so, you'd pick up the phone and you'd go
• 19:27
  Speaker 7: to the next room, wouldn't you Like, you wouldn't stand
• 19:31
  Speaker 7: there unless you're trying to impress the guy in front
• 19:33
  Speaker 7: of this videographer put Trump on speaker phone and go,
• 19:36
  Speaker 7: oh my god.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: Guess who called me?
• 19:39
  Speaker 7: It's Donald Trump like it's just a treacherous sort of
• 19:42
  Speaker 7: thing to do.
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: But it's interesting.
• 19:43
  Speaker 7: In this phone call, Trump appears to be courting RFK Jr.
• 19:49
  Speaker 7: Asking him in someway or suggesting that he wants him
• 19:52
  Speaker 7: to come across to his campaign. He says, I would
• 19:55
  Speaker 7: love you to do something, and I think it would
• 19:57
  Speaker 7: be I've got to read this in Trump's voice, because
• 19:59
  Speaker 7: reading the trun script, it really sounds like Trump.
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: He says, I think it would be so good for
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: you and so big for you.
• 20:06
  Speaker 7: Now what he's doing there effectively saying to RFK Junior,
• 20:10
  Speaker 7: look forget about your campaign and running on your own.
• 20:14
  Speaker 7: Come and join me and we'll do some good things together.
• 20:17
  Speaker 7: Part of me why does Trump want potentially for RFK
• 20:22
  Speaker 7: to not run. Is Trump worried that perhaps he could
• 20:26
  Speaker 7: bleed votes to RFK Jr.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: And he's trying to neutralize.
• 20:31
  Speaker 7: That threat because I would have thought that in all
• 20:33
  Speaker 7: likelihood RFK might actually pull some votes away from Biden
• 20:37
  Speaker 7: and the Dems, and that that would ultimately play well
• 20:39
  Speaker 7: for Trump.
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: So I think he's trying to court him. I'm not sure.
• 20:42
  Speaker 6: I think he's pulling for both though, because people who
• 20:45
  Speaker 6: don't want to vote for Biden, but are also abowt
• 20:48
  Speaker 6: never Trump is, RFK gives them a very very He's
• 20:53
  Speaker 6: a great third option, and in certain seats that's make
• 20:57
  Speaker 6: or break.
• 20:58
  Speaker 5: You don't want to split that vote.
• 21:00
  Speaker 6: So obviously Trump team would be thinking in certain seats
• 21:04
  Speaker 6: that really count if he joins our tribe where over
• 21:09
  Speaker 6: the line. If he doesn't, this is going to split
• 21:12
  Speaker 6: the vote in a way that could end up being
• 21:14
  Speaker 6: very detriminateive.
• 21:15
  Speaker 2: It'd also be a great propaganda coup to have RFK decide,
• 21:20
  Speaker 2: you know what, I would prefer Donald Trump to be
• 21:22
  Speaker 2: president and Joe Biden that The other thing I thought
• 21:24
  Speaker 2: about that phone call is Donald Trump shows a good sense.
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't think that league will hurt Trump.
• 21:29
  Speaker 2: He knows a good sense of humor. Describing the bullet
• 21:33
  Speaker 2: as a giant mosquito. He talks about the fact that
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: Joe Biden had called him, and he says to RFK
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: that Joe Biden was actually very nice. And so you
• 21:42
  Speaker 2: learn from that phone called Donald Trump's not there bagging
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: his opponent. He's actually quite gracious. And Trump is very impressive.
• 21:49
  Speaker 2: I mean, I think this was the day after he's
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: been shot in the side of the head.
• 21:52
  Speaker 5: And you can hear him.
• 21:53
  Speaker 2: He's in good spirits, played a round of golf, and
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: now he's back on the campaign trail doing deals. Here
• 21:59
  Speaker 2: is the mass of the deal. So he comes out
• 22:02
  Speaker 2: of it quite well.
• 22:03
  Speaker 7: But then do we want to go down the conspiracy
• 22:06
  Speaker 7: wrote again and say that RFK was in on all
• 22:08
  Speaker 7: of it with Trump, and the idea was that the
• 22:10
  Speaker 7: call would be leaked because it makes Trump look so good.
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: I know, it's a bit fantastic.
• 22:15
  Speaker 7: I never know the day, but you never know, You
• 22:19
  Speaker 7: really never know, but it is.
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: It's interesting.
• 22:21
  Speaker 7: You raised the point about how well it would play
• 22:24
  Speaker 7: to say that that he's come across and he would
• 22:25
  Speaker 7: prefer Trump over Barden, And of course that would play.
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: Directly into the selection of J. D.
• 22:32
  Speaker 7: Vans as his vice president, who, of course is someone
• 22:35
  Speaker 7: who previously had criticized Trump quite heavily. It plays into
• 22:39
  Speaker 7: all the people who've been speaking at the Republican National
• 22:42
  Speaker 7: Convention this week who've been saying that, you know, we
• 22:46
  Speaker 7: voted for Biden in twenty twenty and now we're going
• 22:48
  Speaker 7: to vote for Trump in twenty twenty four. To have
• 22:51
  Speaker 7: someone who comes from a very famous Democrat family to
• 22:54
  Speaker 7: say that they were endorsing Trump would probably be political dynamite.
• 22:58
  Speaker 7: Speaking of the Republican National Convention, they got into day
• 23:02
  Speaker 7: two today and I have to say, look, they do
• 23:05
  Speaker 7: politics in America so much better than we do politics
• 23:09
  Speaker 7: in Australia, at least when it comes to the entertainment factor. Right,
• 23:13
  Speaker 7: we have the most boring, up and down straight politicians
• 23:18
  Speaker 7: in this country. And you might argue that's a good
• 23:21
  Speaker 7: thing because it generally means they're a safer pair of hands.
• 23:24
  Speaker 7: But because in the US they treat politics like sports,
• 23:28
  Speaker 7: you know, state of origin as it is to many
• 23:30
  Speaker 7: of you, here is what politics is to a lot
• 23:34
  Speaker 7: of Americans. So the entertainment has been rolling thick and
• 23:39
  Speaker 7: fast at the RNC this week, and today was no
• 23:42
  Speaker 7: exception where they rolled out a montage of Donald Trump's
• 23:46
  Speaker 7: famous dance moves. I don't know whether they've done him
• 23:48
  Speaker 7: dirty here, so I think it is. It is a
• 24:16
  Speaker 7: great shame that Donald Trump does not drink because watching
• 24:20
  Speaker 7: him with those dance moves.
• 24:21
  Speaker 1: Can you imagine if.
• 24:22
  Speaker 7: The bloke got on the source, hit the dance floor
• 24:26
  Speaker 7: at the karaoke bar, he would be an absolute man.
• 24:30
  Speaker 5: I don't know what you're talking about they're great moves.
• 24:33
  Speaker 6: You're twenty I not can't pull something off like that late.
• 24:37
  Speaker 1: I can do it as well.
• 24:39
  Speaker 5: I'm going to dad shuffle down. He's like, sweet, yeah.
• 24:44
  Speaker 1: Good, it's pretty good.
• 24:45
  Speaker 5: But he's said the rallies love it well. With the
• 24:48
  Speaker 5: y m c A. You're locking in the gave.
• 24:52
  Speaker 6: Before the lgbt IQ's are like, oh, maybe that's not.
• 24:59
  Speaker 7: Because this that's the thing, right, Like the convention has
• 25:02
  Speaker 7: basically been like a rock concert, and in fact.
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: They've had a rock band there.
• 25:06
  Speaker 7: And you saw in that clip earlier of jd Vance
• 25:09
  Speaker 7: when he was talking about Iran, like they've got the
• 25:12
  Speaker 7: music going in the background. It's it's just a real
• 25:14
  Speaker 7: great background to all of this stuff. Of course, one
• 25:17
  Speaker 7: of the other iconic I hate using that word, but
• 25:19
  Speaker 7: you know it is kind of iconic, the image of
• 25:22
  Speaker 7: Trump coming out on the first day yesterday at.
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: The convention with that big old bandage over his ear.
• 25:29
  Speaker 7: Well, few of the delegates got in on the fun
• 25:32
  Speaker 7: today and rocked up with a few bandages themselves. Have
• 25:35
  Speaker 7: looked at these photographs we have here of Arizona, Stacey
• 25:39
  Speaker 7: Goodman and Joe Niglia who've rocked up there with the
• 25:43
  Speaker 7: bandages on their own ears join him a bit of
• 25:47
  Speaker 7: the fun there.
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: I mean, we just wouldn't do that.
• 25:50
  Speaker 7: Can you imagine going along to a campaign launch for
• 25:54
  Speaker 7: the Labor Party or the Liberal Party and getting anything
• 25:57
  Speaker 7: near that kind of entertainment?
• 25:59
  Speaker 5: Yeah? Yeah?
• 26:00
  Speaker 6: Or the guy that we played last night who got
• 26:02
  Speaker 6: up to do the benediction and took trumpe blot.
• 26:05
  Speaker 5: It's gonna be the best blessing. You're gonna be so blessed.
• 26:08
  Speaker 6: Can you imagine someone getting up at say the Labor
• 26:12
  Speaker 6: National Conference and speaking in an alban Easy Lish for
• 26:16
  Speaker 6: something like everyone would be like, you can't do that.
• 26:20
  Speaker 5: But one of my personal highlights from the RNZ on
• 26:23
  Speaker 5: day two was this one.
• 26:25
  Speaker 6: I don't know who the dude is who's even speaking,
• 26:28
  Speaker 6: but nothing prepared me for the last four seconds of
• 26:31
  Speaker 6: the video that you're about to see.
• 26:34
  Speaker 3: Bottom line to every single thing that's going on in
• 26:38
  Speaker 3: this great country today is one thing. We become totally
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: unhinged if Donald Trump is not elected in November, that
• 26:57
  Speaker 3: chunky boy.
• 26:58
  Speaker 5: Has got my vote.
• 27:00
  Speaker 6: And I'm not talking about the governor who was speaking.
• 27:03
  Speaker 6: I mean who were in Australia would bring along their
• 27:06
  Speaker 6: bulldog to just sit next to them while they address
• 27:11
  Speaker 6: tens of thousands of people at the Republican National Conference.
• 27:16
  Speaker 5: I mean, this boy's in it to win it.
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: Look clearly he's a very nervous public speaker, and that
• 27:20
  Speaker 2: was his emotional support dog to give him confidence.
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: Is he the lieutenant governor?
• 27:27
  Speaker 7: Is that what they talks about how America will be
• 27:32
  Speaker 7: unhinged if Donald Trump doesn't get elected. But the guys
• 27:36
  Speaker 7: pretty unhinged watching a dog standing sitting there on stage
• 27:41
  Speaker 7: during a political speech. But again again, I mean that's
• 27:44
  Speaker 7: something you would just never get in politics in this country.
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: But he rocks with his dog, and our politicians would
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: have a bulldog, have a poodle?
• 27:51
  Speaker 1: Oh well, that's what.
• 27:52
  Speaker 7: What's what's Toto? What's total to one of those brutal
• 27:56
  Speaker 7: law whatever the hell they are?
• 27:59
  Speaker 1: Albanesi's dog? Is it a poodle? No, it looks a
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: bit poodly.
• 28:03
  Speaker 7: I don't know.
• 28:04
  Speaker 5: It's one of those I don't know he had a dog.
• 28:06
  Speaker 5: Now I feel sorry it didn't know Elbow had a dog.
• 28:09
  Speaker 1: The planes named after him. Toto won.
• 28:12
  Speaker 7: He's always going on a walk of the plane and
• 28:15
  Speaker 7: it's the number one thing you want it.
• 28:16
  Speaker 1: You want to seem relatable. I've got a dog.
• 28:19
  Speaker 9: I'm like you.
• 28:19
  Speaker 1: He's like, no, no, no, I'm not going to be relatable.
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: I've got a dog. And this dog goes on stage.
• 28:25
  Speaker 1: He doesn't go for walks. He sits up here like
• 28:28
  Speaker 1: a badass.
• 28:29
  Speaker 2: Let's talk about rock music for a moment. Tenacious D
• 28:32
  Speaker 2: turns out are not so Tenacious after all. They've canceled
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: their entire Australian tour after the uproar over band member
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: Kyle Gas calling for another attempt on Donald Trump's life.
• 28:45
  Speaker 2: Just in case you haven't seen the vision from their
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: concert in Sydney on Monday, Kyle Gas was asked what
• 28:50
  Speaker 2: he'd like for his sixty fourth birthday, and here's how
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: he replied, Trump next time. So for his birthday, he
• 29:14
  Speaker 2: hopes that the next shooter doesn't miss charming stuff. Well today,
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: of course they've done a big apology because there's absolute outrage,
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: aside from the audience who laughed. But Kyle Gas had
• 29:26
  Speaker 2: this to say. He said, I don't condone violence of
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: any kind in any form against anyone, which is kind
• 29:32
  Speaker 2: of curious since just twenty four hours ago he called
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: for renewed violence against Donald Trump. He added I'm incredibly
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: sorry for my severe lack of judgment. Liz is calling
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: for someone to be assassinated a lack of judgment. That's
• 29:46
  Speaker 2: what you would call telling your wife her but doesn't
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: look big in those genes. That would be a lack
• 29:50
  Speaker 2: of judgment.
• 29:51
  Speaker 7: Or James, James Chandon, you said telling your wife that
• 30:00
  Speaker 7: who but doesn't look big in the genes would be
• 30:03
  Speaker 7: a lack of judgment.
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: I thought, no, I said looks no, No, no, you
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: said doesn't. Either way, there would be a movie would
• 30:08
  Speaker 1: be you would be in trouble.
• 30:12
  Speaker 2: Calling for a politician to be assassinated is not a
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: lack of judgment. It's not even a severe lack of
• 30:17
  Speaker 2: Judgment's a lack of humanity. Yeah.
• 30:20
  Speaker 1: Look, I wouldn't say it on a stage.
• 30:22
  Speaker 7: I wouldn't say it privately either, but but I tend
• 30:26
  Speaker 7: to think, look, he should be allowed to say. I
• 30:28
  Speaker 7: don't think you should be drummed out of the country.
• 30:31
  Speaker 2: You have never been sitting a few nights talking about
• 30:34
  Speaker 2: how the Democrats I have incited this, and now someone
• 30:37
  Speaker 2: comes to Sydney says exactly the same, more probably worse
• 30:41
  Speaker 2: than most of the Democrats have said. Am we're going
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: to defend him.
• 30:44
  Speaker 7: No, I'm not defending him. I'm just defending his right
• 30:46
  Speaker 7: to say it. I told you I don't agree with
• 30:48
  Speaker 7: what he said. I'm just defending his right to say it.
• 30:50
  Speaker 7: What has happened here is that they have taken the
• 30:53
  Speaker 7: decision to cancel the tour.
• 30:55
  Speaker 1: Now that is simply.
• 30:58
  Speaker 5: Event. The the buildings that they were going to be
• 31:01
  Speaker 5: held in canceled on them.
• 31:03
  Speaker 6: So while they come out fay, oh we're canceling the tour,
• 31:07
  Speaker 6: it was kind of canceled on them. But this makes
• 31:10
  Speaker 6: them look better if as a pr move they just say, oh, well,
• 31:13
  Speaker 6: we're canceling it. Jack Black has come out the lead
• 31:16
  Speaker 6: singer of the band, if you can even call it
• 31:18
  Speaker 6: a band, it sounds terrible and Jack Black can't sing,
• 31:21
  Speaker 6: but he's come out saying, oh, I was completely blindsided.
• 31:25
  Speaker 1: I was shocked.
• 31:26
  Speaker 6: If you know the politics of either of these guys,
• 31:28
  Speaker 6: you know that they are talking through their teeth here
• 31:32
  Speaker 6: they're saying what must be said, and I dare say
• 31:35
  Speaker 6: that they both they both meant it. I mean Jack
• 31:37
  Speaker 6: Black did nothing to push back on the night, and
• 31:41
  Speaker 6: that was when it counted.
• 31:42
  Speaker 5: Obviously, if he'd done a quick oh, this has gone
• 31:45
  Speaker 5: too far. We take it back.
• 31:46
  Speaker 6: But my question is, when it comes to incitement, etc.
• 31:51
  Speaker 6: And so on, where did you draw the line? Because
• 31:55
  Speaker 6: we've we played a comic on Monday Night who much
• 32:00
  Speaker 6: smaller than Jack Black. She had over eighty thousand followers,
• 32:03
  Speaker 6: but she was saying the same and she was posting
• 32:05
  Speaker 6: it on her socials. Weeks earlier, we played a clip
• 32:09
  Speaker 6: of some actress in Hollywood. He was literally saying, Joe Biden,
• 32:13
  Speaker 6: take this guy out. He is the modern day Hitler.
• 32:16
  Speaker 5: And if he were Hitler, you.
• 32:18
  Speaker 6: Know that you'd take him out if you had a chance,
• 32:20
  Speaker 6: take this guy out.
• 32:22
  Speaker 5: We played that for you guys weeks ago.
• 32:24
  Speaker 6: So my question is there's so many people cracking this
• 32:29
  Speaker 6: joke and intimating it in many ways. I mean, here's
• 32:34
  Speaker 6: just an everyday lady by the name of Linda Peterson.
• 32:37
  Speaker 6: She took to her Facebook to write, Dan, he didn't die, well,
• 32:41
  Speaker 6: at least one supporter did. I'll take what I can get.
• 32:45
  Speaker 6: My heart goes out to the family of the shooter.
• 32:49
  Speaker 6: Know that he died doing what needed to be done.
• 32:52
  Speaker 6: Hopefully someone will accomplish the task before we vote.
• 32:57
  Speaker 5: So if we're going to start saying.
• 32:59
  Speaker 6: Okay, we now deport you from our country because you
• 33:04
  Speaker 6: said this line. Where are we drawing the line when
• 33:07
  Speaker 6: people all over social media are already echoing these sentiments,
• 33:12
  Speaker 6: coming out.
• 33:13
  Speaker 5: With them on their own.
• 33:14
  Speaker 6: We've heard this kind of rhetoric for years from the Democrats,
• 33:17
  Speaker 6: not just saying that he's illegitimate, but from the President
• 33:20
  Speaker 6: of the United States Biden, saying.
• 33:23
  Speaker 5: He's the greatest threat to democracy.
• 33:24
  Speaker 6: This is the end of the world as we know
• 33:26
  Speaker 6: it is a rock star standing on stage in Sydney
• 33:30
  Speaker 6: where no one's got access to Trump anyway, So.
• 33:34
  Speaker 2: We used to look global audience. That video has gone
• 33:36
  Speaker 2: all around the world. Five minutes after he said it.
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: It's clearly he's calling for someone to be killed. That's illegal.
• 33:43
  Speaker 2: He should immediately What about all the comics who have
• 33:45
  Speaker 2: done so, they should be prosecuted.
• 33:47
  Speaker 6: Okay, so that's a lot of prosecution, Linda put You
• 33:51
  Speaker 6: either have laws, Lady mac is onto your is.
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: We have laws against incitement and calling for people to
• 33:57
  Speaker 2: be killed, or you say, oh no, it's fine as corporated.
• 33:59
  Speaker 5: Well, recently ches in Western Sydney apparently there are laws
• 34:04
  Speaker 5: on incitement.
• 34:06
  Speaker 2: That's a great point.
• 34:07
  Speaker 6: So it to me, either we go free slather where
• 34:11
  Speaker 6: libertarian central everyone can say whatever the heck they want,
• 34:16
  Speaker 6: or there has to be defined rules.
• 34:19
  Speaker 5: But this arbitrary type depends on the way you say
• 34:23
  Speaker 5: it and in what setting you say it. It just
• 34:26
  Speaker 5: it can never work that way.
• 34:28
  Speaker 2: I didn't even buy the idea that that was a joke.
• 34:30
  Speaker 1: I hope that it wasn't.
• 34:32
  Speaker 2: Miss where's the punchline in that it's it's a statement?
• 34:36
  Speaker 5: They absolutely mention.
• 34:37
  Speaker 7: Yeah, well there's there's not a punchline. There's just an
• 34:41
  Speaker 7: ending to it ultimately, which is which is what he wants.
• 34:44
  Speaker 7: But look, you know they've canceled.
• 34:46
  Speaker 1: They're off out of here.
• 34:47
  Speaker 7: I don't think any of us are crying too hard
• 34:49
  Speaker 7: about that. Now, before we go to a break, I
• 34:52
  Speaker 7: read some great news today, and you know, we're finally
• 34:55
  Speaker 7: moving on from all the Trump stuff and the fun
• 34:58
  Speaker 7: and frivolity of the r n C. Some even better
• 35:01
  Speaker 7: news is that Microsoft and John Deere, two very big companies,
• 35:06
  Speaker 7: have decided to clean out their diversity, Equity and Inclusion
• 35:11
  Speaker 7: arm so so we do not need them anymore. Microsoft
• 35:14
  Speaker 7: has laid off its entire DEI team because now they
• 35:19
  Speaker 7: say that it's no longer business critical. Perhaps they've worken
• 35:23
  Speaker 7: up over there and worked out that making money.
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: Is business critical.
• 35:30
  Speaker 7: Longer making money is business critical, or getting involved in
• 35:33
  Speaker 7: social politics, perhaps not so much. Microsoft's spokesman Jeff Jones,
• 35:40
  Speaker 7: he said.
• 35:40
  Speaker 1: That don't worry about it. Nothing that's really changing here.
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: He said, our focus on diversity and inclusion.
• 35:46
  Speaker 7: Is unwavering, and we are holding firm on our expectations,
• 35:50
  Speaker 7: prioritizing accountability and continuing to focus on this work, except,
• 35:54
  Speaker 7: of course, that you've just sacked the entire team that
• 35:57
  Speaker 7: you hired in order to try and achieve those ins
• 35:59
  Speaker 7: perhaps because they were all de Hires themselves weren't doing
• 36:02
  Speaker 7: the job that you hired them to do.
• 36:04
  Speaker 1: And John Dear, who of course manufactures tractors, is.
• 36:07
  Speaker 7: Doing exactly the same thing, And you might ask yourself
• 36:09
  Speaker 7: the question why did attractor manufacturer needed DEI team?
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: Anyway?
• 36:13
  Speaker 7: I mean, I've never walked into a shop and gone,
• 36:15
  Speaker 7: can I have the gay tractor?
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: Please?
• 36:18
  Speaker 7: But they say our customers trust and confidence in us
• 36:22
  Speaker 7: are the utmost importance to everyone at John Deere. We
• 36:24
  Speaker 7: fully intend to earn it every day and in every
• 36:28
  Speaker 7: way we can. Isn't it good to just see that
• 36:31
  Speaker 7: a little by little this stuff is starting to fall
• 36:34
  Speaker 7: by the wayside because they're realizing, hell were we doing
• 36:38
  Speaker 7: in the first.
• 36:38
  Speaker 2: Or Microsoft spent one hundred and fifty million dollars on
• 36:41
  Speaker 2: diversity equity inclusion since twenty twenty after George Floyd's death,
• 36:45
  Speaker 2: and I think someone simply asked, what do we actually
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: get for that one hundred and fifty million and no
• 36:50
  Speaker 2: one could nominate anything.
• 36:52
  Speaker 5: So esg points.
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: Indeed, we're going to go to a break when we
• 36:56
  Speaker 2: come back to look at what's making news in tomorrow's papers.
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: That's coming up in just a second. Welcome back. Well,
• 37:04
  Speaker 2: let's look at what's making news in tomorrow's papers. And
• 37:06
  Speaker 2: calib the Australian newspaper, have been doing a series of
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: articles looking at the Greens policies. It's quite enlightening.
• 37:11
  Speaker 7: Indeed they have, and reading some of them, you'd think
• 37:14
  Speaker 7: perhaps they'd taken a bullet to the head because here's
• 37:16
  Speaker 7: this one Left has called a kneecap the RBA.
• 37:20
  Speaker 1: It is just extraordinary.
• 37:22
  Speaker 7: The Greens are urging Jim Charmers to muscle up to
• 37:25
  Speaker 7: the Reserve Bank and override any decision to lift interest rates.
• 37:28
  Speaker 7: In August, in a major attack on the institution's independence,
• 37:32
  Speaker 7: with the minor party arguing that cash rate decisions are
• 37:36
  Speaker 7: inherently political. Now they may well be correct insofar as
• 37:40
  Speaker 7: that cash rate decisions can be inherently political. But what
• 37:45
  Speaker 7: the Greens are suggesting here is that the entire point
• 37:48
  Speaker 7: of the RBA be dismantled and that the treasurer basically
• 37:52
  Speaker 7: starts running the RBA.
• 37:54
  Speaker 1: Can you imagine? Can you imagine?
• 37:57
  Speaker 7: And look, I have no truck with the RBA and
• 38:01
  Speaker 7: its previous governor, Philip Low, who of course famously said
• 38:05
  Speaker 7: that you won't get an interest rate rise until twenty
• 38:08
  Speaker 7: twenty four. Go and borrow all this money to stimulate
• 38:11
  Speaker 7: the economy, which people dutifully did. Then we overheated the economy,
• 38:15
  Speaker 7: which Stevie Wonder could have seen coming, and then of
• 38:18
  Speaker 7: course we had to raise interest rates to deal with
• 38:21
  Speaker 7: that fact and put people through a hell of a
• 38:23
  Speaker 7: lot of pain. I've got plenty of criticism of the RBA,
• 38:26
  Speaker 7: but when you start saying that the treasurer ought to
• 38:29
  Speaker 7: be running it, what you're going to end up in
• 38:31
  Speaker 7: is an even worse situation where interest rates will never ever, ever,
• 38:35
  Speaker 7: ever ever rise because you don't want to be the
• 38:37
  Speaker 7: treasurer who does that and then inflation, I don't know,
• 38:40
  Speaker 7: you end up like Zimbabwe where they have one hundred
• 38:42
  Speaker 7: billion dollar notes for a load of bread.
• 38:45
  Speaker 2: Nick McKim is the Greens finance spokesperson, which doesn't exactly
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: fill you with a lot of confidence about what the
• 38:51
  Speaker 2: country would look like if the Greens ever had influence.
• 38:53
  Speaker 7: Man who wanted to lock up Brad Banducci.
• 38:56
  Speaker 2: Exactly well, the man who accused everybody in the chamber
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: of being psychopaths because they weren't doing anything about climate change.
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: Their other economic policies include no surplus. In fact, they
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: say it's disgusting that Australia is running a surplus. A
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: super profits tax of course, because if we just tax
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: the billionaires everything will be all right. And they want
• 39:16
  Speaker 2: to remove funding. Would you believe it from private schools now?
• 39:19
  Speaker 6: I just love that their answer to the many problems,
• 39:22
  Speaker 6: most of which are created by the government, is to
• 39:25
  Speaker 6: give more power to the government. To the front page
• 39:29
  Speaker 6: of the Mercury, now shell shock. Here's a weird one
• 39:33
  Speaker 6: for you. Exclusive three thousand allegedly illegal harvested Tasmanian bird
• 39:40
  Speaker 6: eggs worth half a million dollars seized in global smuggling investigation.
• 39:46
  Speaker 6: Federal officials have raided a property north of Hobart and
• 39:49
  Speaker 6: seized more than three thousand bird eggs, including some thought
• 39:53
  Speaker 6: to be a threatened species, after a Tasmanian man was
• 39:56
  Speaker 6: identified as a suspect in a global Wildlife Prime investigation.
• 40:01
  Speaker 5: Who knew that birdies had like a swat team of
• 40:04
  Speaker 5: their own.
• 40:05
  Speaker 6: But this is really interesting, especially after the story that
• 40:08
  Speaker 6: we did a couple of weeks ago about the guy
• 40:10
  Speaker 6: who was caught smuggling into China.
• 40:12
  Speaker 5: Snakes four pants, one hundred and four snakes down his pants,
• 40:17
  Speaker 5: and so naturally it looks like this is where this
• 40:21
  Speaker 5: guy's struggling his eggs.
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: If you're smuggling three thousand eggs in your pants, you'd
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: have to walk very you'd walk like Joe Biden.
• 40:28
  Speaker 5: I reckon.
• 40:29
  Speaker 6: He had to come up with some sort of briefcase
• 40:31
  Speaker 6: system in this situation, otherwise the eggs weren't gonna make it.
• 40:34
  Speaker 10: Well.
• 40:35
  Speaker 7: Look, I mean look, as a man, the idea of
• 40:38
  Speaker 7: having one hundred and four snakes in my trousers just
• 40:41
  Speaker 7: fills me with existential dread because you can imagine the
• 40:44
  Speaker 7: pain if one of them decided to inflict a little
• 40:47
  Speaker 7: bit of a bite on you. But clearly what's happening
• 40:50
  Speaker 7: here is that there is an overseas market for these birds,
• 40:54
  Speaker 7: and so he would then sell the eggs to China
• 40:57
  Speaker 7: or wherever it might be at a good premium and
• 41:00
  Speaker 7: make a lot of money out of it. Now I
• 41:02
  Speaker 7: get that it's potentially an environmental risk to certain parts
• 41:08
  Speaker 7: of the world, But part of me thinks, is that
• 41:10
  Speaker 7: not a problem for other parts of the world to
• 41:13
  Speaker 7: deal with?
• 41:13
  Speaker 1: Like if he's managed to get eggs.
• 41:16
  Speaker 7: From these birds and then he sells the eggs to
• 41:18
  Speaker 7: someone overseas, what genuine damage is it doing to Australia.
• 41:23
  Speaker 7: Like sure, if we're saying that there's only two of
• 41:26
  Speaker 7: this particular species left, and so their eggs are obviously
• 41:29
  Speaker 7: really valuable as a threatened species, because that could be
• 41:32
  Speaker 7: the one bird that allows the species to continue propagating.
• 41:35
  Speaker 7: But if he's collecting eggs and selling them to someone
• 41:38
  Speaker 7: and it's not going to mean that they go extinct,
• 41:42
  Speaker 7: I'm kind of struggling. He's running real business here, but
• 41:45
  Speaker 7: I'm kind of struggling to see what the issue is.
• 41:47
  Speaker 6: To be perfectly honest, I would assume it was more
• 41:51
  Speaker 6: of a health safety thing.
• 41:53
  Speaker 5: For the birds. How can you properly look after three
• 41:55
  Speaker 5: thousand eggs?
• 41:57
  Speaker 6: None of the chicks are dying inside apparently keeping them
• 42:00
  Speaker 6: at the right temperatures, they're not hatching too soon.
• 42:04
  Speaker 5: I don't think you can do that.
• 42:06
  Speaker 2: Well, you'd have to look after them to I mean,
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: there's no point, you know, taking them to China and
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: they're all dead, So you'd have.
• 42:11
  Speaker 5: To do well.
• 42:11
  Speaker 7: I know, if you've paid this bloke a lot of
• 42:13
  Speaker 7: money and your egg's dead on arrival, you're not going
• 42:15
  Speaker 7: to be terribly happy.
• 42:16
  Speaker 6: Yeah.
• 42:16
  Speaker 5: What are you doing if you haven't sold them before
• 42:18
  Speaker 5: it's hatching time?
• 42:19
  Speaker 6: Do you just.
• 42:22
  Speaker 5: Shove to celebrate they won't survive?
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: Well, you just story story, okay.
• 42:32
  Speaker 1: Also on the.
• 42:33
  Speaker 6: Front page of the MRK, poker back on cards in Tasmania.
• 42:37
  Speaker 5: Get ready people.
• 42:39
  Speaker 6: Social poker tournaments are back on the table after Finance
• 42:42
  Speaker 6: Minister Nick Street issued in order to exempt them from
• 42:46
  Speaker 6: the Gaming Control Act. The article goes on to explain
• 42:49
  Speaker 6: that in November last year, the Treasurer said that poker
• 42:55
  Speaker 6: games or tournaments which charge money to participate.
• 43:00
  Speaker 5: Only be organized by casino operators.
• 43:02
  Speaker 6: So Tasmanians, if you were enjoying a at home poker
• 43:07
  Speaker 6: game with a.
• 43:07
  Speaker 5: Pile of friends round the table. Illegal illegal daddy sat
• 43:13
  Speaker 5: Daddy's busting down the door.
• 43:15
  Speaker 7: I'm just struggling with the concept that in the beginning
• 43:19
  Speaker 7: the Tasmanian government was like, if you have your mates
• 43:23
  Speaker 7: around for poker on a Wednesday night and you're all
• 43:26
  Speaker 7: chucking in money, like you're playing for money, that that
• 43:29
  Speaker 7: is illegal. You're running some kind of illegal betting ring.
• 43:32
  Speaker 7: I mean, can you imagine how many blokes in their
• 43:34
  Speaker 7: sheds in Tasmania have been unwittingly breaking the law for
• 43:38
  Speaker 7: the last year, Like it's just a thing that you do.
• 43:42
  Speaker 7: We're going to play poker and we'll chuck some money. You,
• 43:45
  Speaker 7: my friends are dead set criminals.
• 43:47
  Speaker 1: You should have been locked up.
• 43:49
  Speaker 7: I mean, god forbid, you met your sixteen year old
• 43:52
  Speaker 7: son have a sick of beer at the same time.
• 43:54
  Speaker 7: These are hardened criminals they have down there in Tasmania.
• 43:58
  Speaker 2: Let's go to the front page of the Adelaide Advertiser.
• 44:01
  Speaker 2: Nurse ratchet patrolling hospital corridors rats in the ra says
• 44:05
  Speaker 2: The headline asked a rare standing for Royal Adelaide Hospital.
• 44:09
  Speaker 2: A rat has been captured scurrying around an office space
• 44:12
  Speaker 2: at Royal Adelaide Hospital, prompting warnings from a health boss.
• 44:15
  Speaker 2: Mice and rodents are in open areas surrounding the hospital,
• 44:18
  Speaker 2: and pest patrols have been ordered daily.
• 44:20
  Speaker 6: Now.
• 44:20
  Speaker 2: The article goes on to say that there are suspicions
• 44:24
  Speaker 2: that with cleaning hours being cut, that's what's led to
• 44:28
  Speaker 2: rats in the hospital. I wonder, Liz, if the poor
• 44:31
  Speaker 2: thing just got sick of waiting for an ambulance.
• 44:34
  Speaker 5: It was like, this ramping is trash. I'm just getting
• 44:37
  Speaker 5: straight in there. No. But also, how do you know
• 44:40
  Speaker 5: that this wasn't someone's emotional support animal. It's just one
• 44:43
  Speaker 5: and it was in the office area. Can you imagine
• 44:47
  Speaker 5: how stressed the staff are so it could be a pet.
• 44:50
  Speaker 2: It could have been one of the him.
• 44:52
  Speaker 5: He looks pretty cute, he looks pretty clean. He looks
• 44:54
  Speaker 5: like a rat.
• 44:55
  Speaker 1: Something something something tells me, Liz, that's a stockphoto. I
• 44:58
  Speaker 1: don't think he's the one that was that's him.
• 45:01
  Speaker 7: But I'm just going to go and a limb here
• 45:03
  Speaker 7: and say that if your emotional support animal is a rat,
• 45:07
  Speaker 7: then you need a lot more than an emotional support
• 45:10
  Speaker 7: animal like you should be you should you would be
• 45:12
  Speaker 7: taken to the psych ward and assessed what the hell
• 45:15
  Speaker 7: are you doing with your emotional support?
• 45:17
  Speaker 2: You would need an emotional support animal to help you
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: with your emotional support.
• 45:21
  Speaker 1: I know, I know, I just going and get over it.
• 45:23
  Speaker 7: But the subjects of the story, of course being that
• 45:26
  Speaker 7: the cleaning hours have been cut, right, I mean, how
• 45:29
  Speaker 7: bad a situation can the South Australian Health system be
• 45:34
  Speaker 7: in if they're cutting the cleaning hours. Right, the one
• 45:37
  Speaker 7: place you want to go to in the knowledge that
• 45:41
  Speaker 7: it is hygieneriz and stafe and sterile and that there
• 45:46
  Speaker 7: ain't going to be nothing in there of a danger
• 45:48
  Speaker 7: to you is a hospital. And they're like, oh yeah,
• 45:51
  Speaker 7: we better cut the cleaning hours at the hospital. They
• 45:53
  Speaker 7: should like, I don't care if the cleaners are on
• 45:56
  Speaker 7: one hundred grand a year. If that place is spotless,
• 45:59
  Speaker 7: it's far better than the alternative.
• 46:01
  Speaker 1: So they cut the cleans Now they've got rights in there.
• 46:04
  Speaker 2: If the cleaners were represented by the CFMU, they'd be.
• 46:06
  Speaker 1: On two exactly. Bring them on.
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: We're going to go to a break. When we come
• 46:11
  Speaker 2: about a football fan who went early celebrating England's European
• 46:14
  Speaker 2: Championship loss, it's in a moment welcome back well. Obviously,
• 46:22
  Speaker 2: the R and C conference is on Republican National Convention.
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: We've been talking about it, Liz and a lot of reporters.
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: They're doing live reports.
• 46:29
  Speaker 6: Has it all going for them, proving that not all
• 46:31
  Speaker 6: heroes wear cape. Some guy who attended the RNC decided
• 46:36
  Speaker 6: to make the most of fake news. CNN also covering
• 46:39
  Speaker 6: this proceedings is what he got up to.
• 46:43
  Speaker 7: Campaign?
• 46:44
  Speaker 5: Knew and when?
• 46:45
  Speaker 10: Because I have talked to a number of people who
• 46:46
  Speaker 10: have been on the ground for the former president in
• 46:48
  Speaker 10: recent days and weeks who had no idea.
• 46:51
  Speaker 5: Now.
• 46:51
  Speaker 10: One thing to remember is that Donald Trump is a
• 46:53
  Speaker 10: very tight knit security team. He has been with the
• 46:56
  Speaker 10: c detail for years. He is very clusive.
• 47:00
  Speaker 6: Where is the Jeffrey Emstein client les? One of the
• 47:05
  Speaker 6: most intelligent questions to ever make it on the CNN.
• 47:10
  Speaker 2: The Jaws soundtrack? It was not part of the cn.
• 47:14
  Speaker 7: It would be more entertaining if CNN did put tours
• 47:17
  Speaker 7: over the top of a lot of their programming. But
• 47:20
  Speaker 7: I love it every time something like this happens. One
• 47:22
  Speaker 7: of the most obscure ones was the Tasmania election earlier
