Speaker 2: This is the Wider Panalty Show.
0:08
Speaker 3: Good evening and welcome to the Rita Panehy Show. Coming
0:11
Speaker 3: up tonight, the crime rate becomes an election issue as
0:14
Speaker 3: poll's open for early voting.
0:16
Speaker 4: Patrick Carlin will be with me shortly.
0:19
Speaker 3: A high school student pleads with adults to protect her
0:22
Speaker 3: from males identifying as females from accessing girls' locker rooms.
0:27
Speaker 3: I'll speak to Stefan Bastin about that and much more.
0:30
Speaker 3: Kosha Gata will be here with the latest from the US,
0:33
Speaker 3: and later in the hour, the always hilarious Alex Stein
0:37
Speaker 3: will join me with his campaign to end the deportation
0:40
Speaker 3: of pot latinas I'm serious and left he's losing it.
0:44
Speaker 4: Features this young lady.
0:46
Speaker 5: There's one thing that they'll never be able to take
0:50
Speaker 5: from me, and that's who I am. I'm a trans
0:54
Speaker 5: woman and I'm proud now.
0:57
Speaker 3: Over the weekend, it was confirmed that Daniel Andrews decision
1:00
Speaker 3: to force millions of Melbournians to live under an eight
1:03
Speaker 3: pm to five am curfew during the COVID nineteen era
1:08
Speaker 3: was not based on medical advice. After explosive documents were
1:12
Speaker 3: finally made public, former chure Health Officer Bret Sutton and
1:16
Speaker 3: then Public Health Commander Finn Romaines exchange emails of the
1:19
Speaker 3: time showing that although it had not been proposed by
1:23
Speaker 3: health experts, Sutton did ultimately submit to the direction of
1:27
Speaker 3: the Victorian government and supported the move. Joining me now
1:31
Speaker 3: for more on this is News Corps senior writer Patrick
1:33
Speaker 3: Carly and Patrick this was a captain's call, and so
1:37
Speaker 3: many in this state, from the bureaucrats, the health bureaucrats
1:41
Speaker 3: to members of the media, failed to question this extraordinary move.
1:46
Speaker 4: I remember I was one of the very few.
1:48
Speaker 3: He was aghast by what was happening, and the response
1:54
Speaker 3: was overwhelmingly that of support from just about everyone here.
1:58
Speaker 3: You would expect to stay sep forward and question something
2:02
Speaker 3: as astonishing as forcing people to stay within their homes
2:06
Speaker 3: after eight pm.
2:07
Speaker 6: That's right, Look, it's triggering just talking about this. It's
2:10
Speaker 6: almost almost been five years. And the fact was, at
2:13
Speaker 6: the time of the curfew is being introduced, no other
2:16
Speaker 6: city in the world, as far as I can remember,
2:18
Speaker 6: was having curfews. There was no push for them anywhere
2:21
Speaker 6: else in Australia, certainly to the extent of Victoria. And
2:24
Speaker 6: it was plain almost from the get go that this
2:27
Speaker 6: was a political decision. I think Dan Andrews made some
2:30
Speaker 6: reference to making it easier for the police force to
2:33
Speaker 6: enforce the silly rules.
2:35
Speaker 2: As they were at that time.
2:37
Speaker 6: It had no It is an absolute travesty of justice
2:40
Speaker 6: that this was allowed to pass the way that you were.
2:43
Speaker 3: All these human rights activists, the Human Rights Commission. Where
2:47
Speaker 3: were all these bodies that we set up that we
2:49
Speaker 3: support with our tax dollars, that are actually supposed to
2:53
Speaker 3: step forward and say no to this sort of overreach,
2:56
Speaker 3: this sort of.
2:58
Speaker 4: Dictatorship.
2:59
Speaker 3: Really the premiere just deciding on his own with his
3:02
Speaker 3: little It wasn't even a cabinet decision. It was the
3:06
Speaker 3: premier's captain's callwell to impose a curfew. I mean that
3:10
Speaker 3: the man must have been on some sort of amazing
3:13
Speaker 3: power trip.
3:14
Speaker 4: Imagine that.
3:15
Speaker 3: Imagine a premier saying, millions of people in my state,
3:19
Speaker 3: you're staying home, you're not allowed to leave.
3:21
Speaker 6: Well, it's described as cowboy behavior, and you look at
3:23
Speaker 6: it now in the cold light of day, and you say,
3:25
Speaker 6: what the hell was that we had protests? I mean,
3:29
Speaker 6: he was picking and choosing which protests were allowable.
3:32
Speaker 2: You had black lives matter in the middle of it.
3:34
Speaker 6: Then you had the anti lockdown protesters treated very harshly authorities.
3:40
Speaker 6: Public health became this sort of give or take thing
3:44
Speaker 6: according to the politics of the day, in such a
3:47
Speaker 6: protracted and strident way.
3:49
Speaker 2: I mean, it really is, really is an.
3:51
Speaker 6: Indictment on Victoria's history that these things were allowed to happen.
3:55
Speaker 3: Now to the death of Pope Francis yesterday, and there
3:58
Speaker 3: is already great speculation who will be the next pope.
4:02
Speaker 3: Only cardinals who are the second highest ranking members of
4:06
Speaker 3: the church will be able to vote, and a number
4:08
Speaker 3: of front runners have already emerged. One of those is
4:12
Speaker 3: a Korean diplomat and the Vatican Secretary of State, Pietro Palyn,
4:17
Speaker 3: the second most senior churchman in the Vatican, and Hungarian
4:21
Speaker 3: Cardinal Peter Edo is another one who's favored by Minnie
4:25
Speaker 3: Patrick to be fairly conservative in his Outlooker, tell me
4:31
Speaker 3: about how you see the reign of Pope Francis and
4:35
Speaker 3: how the next Pope would hope to shape the Catholic Church.
4:40
Speaker 3: You would say that it's undergone some significant changes under
4:48
Speaker 3: the rule of Pope France's rule may not be in
4:51
Speaker 3: the right word He was an interesting figure in that
4:56
Speaker 3: I heard a lot of Catholics who are unhappy with
5:00
Speaker 3: him as pope and some of the things he was
5:02
Speaker 3: choosing to advocate for and some of the things he
5:04
Speaker 3: was choosing to ignore. But he did have also great
5:08
Speaker 3: support from non Catholics.
5:10
Speaker 2: That's right.
5:11
Speaker 6: Look, he had an activist streak if you like that.
5:13
Speaker 6: That was unlike any other pope. He was against pollution,
5:16
Speaker 6: he was against you know, he was very strong on
5:19
Speaker 6: climate change. He got in a bit of a fight
5:22
Speaker 6: with JdE Vance I think at one point about America's
5:25
Speaker 6: immigration rules. That was all very unpope like, if that's
5:29
Speaker 6: the word. And at the same time he sort of
5:32
Speaker 6: he failed to satisfy either of the conservatives, who's never
5:36
Speaker 6: going to please, But he didn't please the progressive within
5:39
Speaker 6: the church. Now these are relative terms. I mean, when
5:42
Speaker 6: you say progressive in the Catholic Church, you'd probably throw
5:45
Speaker 6: it back to about one hundred years before, where society progressive.
5:50
Speaker 3: But he had the net efect because he did have
5:53
Speaker 3: He did have audiences with members of the trans community
5:57
Speaker 3: on a regular basis. He was very much outspoken, like
6:01
Speaker 3: you said, about climate change. He got involved in issues
6:06
Speaker 3: like the deportation program of certain countries. But then there
6:10
Speaker 3: was criticism that he wasn't outspoken enough when he came
6:13
Speaker 3: to the persecution of Christians, particularly a number of African
6:16
Speaker 3: countries NAT countries in the Middle East, where you would
6:19
Speaker 3: expect the pope to be really at the forefront of
6:23
Speaker 3: that fight.
6:24
Speaker 6: That's right, And look, he's very quiet on the church
6:26
Speaker 6: and the sex abuse stuff that's internationally happened. He really
6:31
Speaker 6: didn't stand up on that at all. You still have
6:33
Speaker 6: the impression that the church is busy protecting itself at
6:36
Speaker 6: the expense of protecting its victims.
6:39
Speaker 2: And so he was a mixed bag in that sense.
6:42
Speaker 2: He was quick to.
6:43
Speaker 6: Smile, he had a light way about him. He certainly
6:46
Speaker 6: internationalized the church in a lot of ways. A lot
6:49
Speaker 6: of those cardinals who will vote on the next pope
6:53
Speaker 6: barely know each other because they're all from they're far
6:55
Speaker 6: flung from all over the world. So it's a real
6:58
Speaker 6: it's a real guest to who the next pope will be.
7:03
Speaker 6: Perhaps what I would say is he'll be a crusty
7:05
Speaker 6: old man, perhaps with not a lot of life experience
7:08
Speaker 6: in some ways, just like every other pote But it'll
7:10
Speaker 6: be interesting.
7:12
Speaker 3: Now to the sentence of AFL star Noah Bolter. The
7:16
Speaker 3: Richmond defender was sped jail today, but he has a
7:21
Speaker 3: criminal conviction patrick for assaulting a man in December. Is
7:24
Speaker 3: also received a community corrections order which includes eight ten
7:29
Speaker 3: pm curfew. How is this going to work? Because he
7:34
Speaker 3: can't travel to state, he can't play night games exactly.
7:39
Speaker 4: How the Tiger's going to handle this?
7:40
Speaker 3: They've got a big Blockbuster game coming up and Zach
7:44
Speaker 3: Day Eve this Thursday.
7:46
Speaker 4: Will he be participating.
7:48
Speaker 2: At this point? You'd think not.
7:49
Speaker 6: I imagine the club will be running around like man trying
7:52
Speaker 6: to trying to change his curfew.
7:55
Speaker 2: Curfews aren't good. Look, it's an interesting one.
7:59
Speaker 6: It's become such a a public talking point, this whole discussion.
8:02
Speaker 6: Should he be banned from playing football? Should the premiere
8:06
Speaker 6: be jumping in and giving her two cents worth on it? Look,
8:11
Speaker 6: I don't know how to cur if you will play out?
8:13
Speaker 6: That makes it very interesting.
8:15
Speaker 3: It certainly does, because presumably he can play a Saturday
8:18
Speaker 3: afternoon game. But are they going to keep him on
8:21
Speaker 3: the list if he can play the occasional game.
8:23
Speaker 2: It's a bit harder. You have to be tucked up
8:24
Speaker 2: in bed at ten tenth year. I don't know.
8:28
Speaker 3: It's going to be interesting to see if there's going
8:30
Speaker 3: to be any flexibility and whether that will be seen
8:32
Speaker 3: as preferential treatment for someone who's obviously a star of
8:36
Speaker 3: the AFL. They mentioned the premiere. She's certainly got involved
8:41
Speaker 3: in this drama. She made these comments before he was sentenced.
8:45
Speaker 1: It's up to Richmond Football Club to explain why they've
8:48
Speaker 1: made this football decision as parents around the country are
8:53
Speaker 1: going to sit down with their kids and watch the
8:54
Speaker 1: footy this weekend and trying to explain to their kids
8:57
Speaker 1: why this behavior is wrong and dangerous.
9:00
Speaker 3: So she was very upset there that Richmond were playing him.
9:04
Speaker 3: Now that saw former Richmond coach and current Gold Coast
9:07
Speaker 3: Sons coach Damien Hardwick hit back at the premiere.
9:10
Speaker 7: Yeah, once again, he got a suspension through Richmond, through
9:12
Speaker 7: the AFL at a four week penalty. End of the day,
9:16
Speaker 7: got a pre premier that put her nose in someone
9:19
Speaker 7: else's business. She should just concentrate on getting the state
9:22
Speaker 7: run and well, absolute mockery of her making comments with
9:26
Speaker 7: regard to that.
9:27
Speaker 2: But ind of the day, he's played guilty. He understands
9:29
Speaker 2: that he's going to copy fairwack Patrick.
9:32
Speaker 3: My god, it's a bit of a drama, this one. Now,
9:34
Speaker 3: what do you make of all that? I guess the
9:37
Speaker 3: point that Damion Hardwick was making there is that the
9:40
Speaker 3: Victorian premiere, the Victorian government is notorious for being soft
9:44
Speaker 3: on crime. The crime crisis in this state is a
9:46
Speaker 3: significant issue.
9:48
Speaker 4: So why should we choose to weigh in on this?
9:51
Speaker 3: Seems to be Well, she's opened herself up for this
9:53
Speaker 3: sort of criticism.
9:54
Speaker 6: Look, I'm guessing there must have mention bad economic news
9:57
Speaker 6: last on the day that she was saying that, because
9:59
Speaker 6: it's the great distraction, isn't it? Everyone's been talking about it.
10:03
Speaker 6: Should she shouldn't she have? Hardwiks jumped in on it.
10:07
Speaker 6: It's produced so many words and newspapers and so much commentary.
10:12
Speaker 3: Look, you're a Richmond man. I'm actually the next We
10:16
Speaker 3: should be upfront with that. So everything you're saying is
10:18
Speaker 3: colored by.
10:20
Speaker 6: Bold had a fracking game on Saturday night and a
10:22
Speaker 6: great win.
10:24
Speaker 2: That's two this year.
10:25
Speaker 6: Look at the hard one and if you compare it
10:27
Speaker 6: to there's going to be six eight ten across nrl
10:32
Speaker 6: AFL cases of players who have been charged with being violent.
10:36
Speaker 6: I mean this one is probably at the lower end.
10:40
Speaker 6: The footage is dreadful.
10:41
Speaker 4: The footage is pretty bad.
10:42
Speaker 3: I mean, this is the thing. Some of those offenses
10:45
Speaker 3: were caught on video, but this was.
10:47
Speaker 4: Caught on video.
10:48
Speaker 2: So it does make a bigger.
10:50
Speaker 3: It does, and you watch that footage, it's pretty confronting.
10:54
Speaker 4: Before you go, we're talking about crime.
10:57
Speaker 3: The latest one of the campaign trap hitter Darton has
11:00
Speaker 3: been talking about Australia's deepening crime crisis.
11:04
Speaker 8: There's obviously real concern and certainly it's not just here
11:08
Speaker 8: in Victoria either And talking to a colleague in Wa
11:10
Speaker 8: the other day outdoor knocking, it was a singular biggest
11:14
Speaker 8: issue that was raised. People just worried about crime in
11:17
Speaker 8: their own neighborhood and that is the case in New
11:20
Speaker 8: South Wales and in my state of Coinslone and elsewhere.
11:23
Speaker 3: That's the reality, singular biggest issue being raised. We hear
11:27
Speaker 3: so much about cost of living, of course that's the
11:30
Speaker 3: top issue, but crime is very much an issue. It's
11:34
Speaker 3: seen as a state issue. But what can the federal
11:39
Speaker 3: government do about that? And should Peter Dutton lean into
11:42
Speaker 3: this issue because it's one where he has an advantage
11:45
Speaker 3: over an alpen easy Additionally, Coalition is seen as harder
11:50
Speaker 3: on crime than labor.
11:52
Speaker 2: And he used to be a police officer, of course.
11:55
Speaker 6: And look there was a poll I think back in
11:56
Speaker 6: January that showed the climate change as an important issue
12:00
Speaker 6: dropped off safety. Public anxiety about safety had gone up
12:04
Speaker 6: ten percent or something like a massive amount. I don't
12:08
Speaker 6: think it's about I don't think you're going to lose
12:10
Speaker 6: any votes by doing this, are you? And it does
12:12
Speaker 6: actually in places like Victoria, it does tap into that
12:15
Speaker 6: sense that the state government has been so weak on
12:18
Speaker 6: crime that we are actually in jeopardy in our own homes.
12:23
Speaker 6: It is something that can be exploited. I don't think
12:25
Speaker 6: it's going to lose any votes. It'll be interesting to
12:28
Speaker 6: see how it plays out and whether label will actually
12:30
Speaker 6: sort of respond to it in a meaningful way.
12:33
Speaker 4: At your Carlyon, thanks for you time tonight.
12:36
Speaker 3: Joining me now is the head of advocacy at Women's
12:39
Speaker 3: Forum Australia, Stephanie Bastian. Stephanie, let's start with the local
12:44
Speaker 3: response to the landmark court verdict in the UK which
12:47
Speaker 3: rule that a woman is a biological female who knew.
12:51
Speaker 3: Australia's Sex Discrimination Commissioner and a Cody.
12:55
Speaker 4: This is her response.
12:56
Speaker 3: She said, trans and gender diverse people are a vital
13:00
Speaker 3: part of our community and this moment reminds us that
13:04
Speaker 3: we must continue to advocate for the full enjoyment of
13:07
Speaker 3: human rights for all in our communities here in Australia,
13:11
Speaker 3: not retreat from it. The laws in the UK are
13:15
Speaker 3: not the laws of Australia. Our laws should reflect inclusion,
13:19
Speaker 3: respect and the right of all people to live with dignity.
13:22
Speaker 4: Stephanie, dear me, she doesn't get it, does she? No?
13:30
Speaker 9: Well, Anacoda is an active disappointment by the current Labor government,
13:34
Speaker 9: but she is so far removed from the scope of
13:36
Speaker 9: her role. The purpose of the Sex Discrimination Commissioner is
13:41
Speaker 9: to advocate for women and their sex based rights in
13:43
Speaker 9: line with the Sex Discrimination Act which was implemented with
13:46
Speaker 9: SEED or the International Convention to Protect Women's.
13:49
Speaker 10: Sex Based Rights. And if you have a look.
13:52
Speaker 9: At the Equalities Commissioner in the UK in comparison to Anacody,
13:58
Speaker 9: they recognized there was a conflict between women's sex base
14:02
Speaker 9: rights and what men who identified as women were demanding,
14:05
Speaker 9: and so they actually asked the courts to make a
14:07
Speaker 9: ruling so they could provide clarity within their scope. She's
14:11
Speaker 9: not interested. She has done very little to advocate for
14:14
Speaker 9: women at all. She said nothing about the fact that
14:17
Speaker 9: there are male sex offenders being housed in female prisons.
14:21
Speaker 10: And I think that.
14:22
Speaker 9: She really makes the case as to why these commissions
14:26
Speaker 9: should be abolished.
14:27
Speaker 10: They're not fit for purpose.
14:31
Speaker 4: And not fit for purpose.
14:32
Speaker 3: It's almost they're comically working against the purpose if your
14:37
Speaker 3: purpose is to be protecting the rights of women. Also
14:41
Speaker 3: really disappointing was the response from the opposition leader Peter Darton.
14:45
Speaker 11: Let's have a listen in light of this ruling, what
14:48
Speaker 11: is your definition of a woman?
14:49
Speaker 8: Well, that's a matter obviously, it's been before the British courts.
14:52
Speaker 8: I haven't seen the detail of the case and it's
14:55
Speaker 8: not something that I think his front of mine's at
14:57
Speaker 8: this election.
14:58
Speaker 3: Stephanie see to dodge the question there, But it was
15:02
Speaker 3: a long ago, just during the last election campaign, where
15:06
Speaker 3: Anthony Albanesi was asked the question what is a woman?
15:09
Speaker 3: He didn't treat it as a gotcha question. He gave
15:12
Speaker 3: a very simple definition.
15:14
Speaker 11: What is a woman?
15:14
Speaker 4: Prime Minister? An adult female?
15:16
Speaker 2: How difficult was that to answer?
15:20
Speaker 4: Not too hard, Stephanie.
15:21
Speaker 3: Have we actually regressed as the rest of the world
15:24
Speaker 3: has opened its eyes in this debate and we actually
15:27
Speaker 3: got backwards in this country. We've now got the conservative
15:31
Speaker 3: alternative dodging the question. When Anthony Albanzi was very comfortable
15:36
Speaker 3: a few years ago saying a woman is an adult female.
15:40
Speaker 9: I thought Peter Dutton's response was extremely disappointing.
15:43
Speaker 10: He knows better.
15:45
Speaker 9: He's got strong advocates within his party, particularly Claire Chandra
15:49
Speaker 9: and the like, who have been very strong on this issue,
15:51
Speaker 9: and I think his answer there indicates that he wants
15:54
Speaker 9: to be Prime minister more than he wants to lead.
15:56
Speaker 9: There is nothing to lose by standing strong on this
15:59
Speaker 9: issue and by advocating for women's sex base rights.
16:02
Speaker 10: Women are calling for some leadership on this issue. We
16:05
Speaker 10: hear from.
16:06
Speaker 9: Mums and girls at school all the time who really.
16:10
Speaker 10: Wants some clarity on this and if.
16:11
Speaker 9: He were to bring a policy to the election and
16:14
Speaker 9: to lead on this issue, they would have a stronger
16:17
Speaker 9: voice in this country too, because at the moment, if
16:19
Speaker 9: you're the opposition leader and you want to be Prime
16:22
Speaker 9: Minister and you can't take a position on this, what
16:24
Speaker 9: chance does any other person who wants to hold their
16:27
Speaker 9: job and be involved in their community.
16:30
Speaker 3: Have Yeah, you make an excellent point, But he does
16:34
Speaker 3: have people within his party, Stephanie, who have been weak
16:39
Speaker 3: on this issue. When these bills have come up in
16:41
Speaker 3: the Senate, there's a number of senators who vote with
16:44
Speaker 3: Labor and the Greens to defeat these bills. So is
16:48
Speaker 3: there a bit of a crisis within the Liberal Party
16:50
Speaker 3: when it comes to this issue which should be simple.
16:53
Speaker 4: It's an eighty twenty issue.
16:54
Speaker 3: Eighty percent of the population is crying out for politicians
16:58
Speaker 3: to represent their views.
17:03
Speaker 4: Oh.
17:04
Speaker 9: Absolutely, And I think there's a fear from the backlash
17:07
Speaker 9: within the media. Many have talked about the you know,
17:12
Speaker 9: Cathieves run and Wringa and the media backlash over her
17:15
Speaker 9: position on women's rights to sex based sport. But I
17:19
Speaker 9: think it's really unfair because the public are on site.
17:22
Speaker 9: It's actually activists within the media and within our institutions
17:25
Speaker 9: that are sort of pushing this whole transphobia line that
17:28
Speaker 9: are stopping people from speaking out. So I think the
17:31
Speaker 9: Liberal Party needs to get a backbone on this issue
17:34
Speaker 9: and they need to lead and show some strengths.
17:39
Speaker 3: Absolutely, it's an eighty twenty issue, and the media, the
17:42
Speaker 3: activist class, the political class are all with the twenty percent.
17:46
Speaker 3: You could even argue it's a ninety ten issue. Now
17:48
Speaker 3: to reports that Queensland Children's Gender Servers has removed an
17:54
Speaker 3: information leaflet for parents from their website which contained a
17:58
Speaker 3: quote from a father of a ten year old trans boy,
18:02
Speaker 3: and this is the quote. It said, the real concern
18:05
Speaker 3: was the statistics on suicide.
18:07
Speaker 4: I didn't want my son to be one.
18:09
Speaker 3: So I supported him in the decisions ahead and the
18:13
Speaker 3: informed him as best as possible Steph. The hospital decided
18:17
Speaker 3: to include that even though the alleged links between refusing
18:21
Speaker 3: to let your child transition medically or otherwise and suicide
18:26
Speaker 3: is based on the FLIMSI activist research.
18:33
Speaker 9: Well, if there was any scientific basis for that claim,
18:35
Speaker 9: they wouldn't have removed at RITA. In fact, the evidence
18:38
Speaker 9: is to the contrary. If kids aren't transitioned, the majority
18:42
Speaker 9: of them overcome their gender dysphoria.
18:44
Speaker 10: There was a study that.
18:45
Speaker 9: Came out in the Oxford Journal for Sexual Health in
18:48
Speaker 9: February this year. There are over one hundred thousand participants
18:52
Speaker 9: of transgender patents in this cohort that found overwhelmingly the
18:56
Speaker 9: mental health outcomes post transition, especially surgery is we're devastating,
19:01
Speaker 9: including suicide, suicidal, idelation, substance abuse, deppression and anxiety. The
19:08
Speaker 9: evidence is that the medical transition to treatments for these
19:12
Speaker 9: vulnerable people is not helping them. And I think, particularly
19:15
Speaker 9: when it comes to parents and advocates who want to
19:19
Speaker 9: do the best for children suffering from gender.
19:21
Speaker 10: Distress, the science needs to be rigorous.
19:23
Speaker 12: But we know this.
19:24
Speaker 10: This is why we need to have an.
19:25
Speaker 9: Inquiry because we know what gender clinics are putting out
19:28
Speaker 9: there has a lack of scientific basis.
19:32
Speaker 3: Oh and this again has been known for several years.
19:36
Speaker 3: I call researchers and activists in Scandinavia, those who are
19:43
Speaker 3: actually advocating for people to be able to change genders.
19:47
Speaker 3: Even they were saying that this link between suicide is
19:52
Speaker 3: absolutely false and misleading and then it should not be
19:56
Speaker 3: used as an argument to try to convince people.
19:58
Speaker 4: And that was years ago.
20:00
Speaker 3: I can't believe again how far Australia is behind when
20:03
Speaker 3: it comes to this debate. Before you go, I want
20:06
Speaker 3: to play some footage. This is from the US from
20:09
Speaker 3: Luciam Unified District School. This is a school board meeting
20:15
Speaker 3: in California. Listen to this high school student. This young
20:18
Speaker 3: girl breakdown in tears as she recounts having a biological
20:24
Speaker 3: male who identifies as female, watching her undress in the
20:28
Speaker 3: change room.
20:29
Speaker 4: And listen to how the board responded.
20:32
Speaker 11: Recently, I went into the women's locker room to change
20:34
Speaker 11: for practice, where I saw at the end of my
20:37
Speaker 11: row a biological male watching not only myself but the
20:41
Speaker 11: other young women undressed.
20:42
Speaker 2: It.
20:42
Speaker 5: It's like yourself made me and my parents feel like
20:44
Speaker 5: her own wasn't violid.
20:47
Speaker 13: Even though okay was and still it's being completely violated.
20:52
Speaker 3: Okay, please wrap it up, Please wrap it up, not
20:58
Speaker 3: follow up questions, not comforting that poor girl. And I
21:02
Speaker 3: can't believe that we are doing this to young women,
21:06
Speaker 3: that poor girl being needlessly traumatized.
21:10
Speaker 4: In the name of inclusion and tolerance.
21:16
Speaker 9: And you know, Rita, we're always being gas lit on
21:18
Speaker 9: this issue. We're told it doesn't happen. Men don't go
21:21
Speaker 9: in there, you know, to look at young girls or
21:23
Speaker 9: to women changing. Yet the NHS nurses claim differently. Here
21:27
Speaker 9: is yet another example. And I mean, I remember what
21:30
Speaker 9: it was like to be a teenager. It's a confusing
21:32
Speaker 9: time when you're going through puberty. To have this extra
21:35
Speaker 9: pressure where you have to put up with biological males
21:39
Speaker 9: looking at you or even just being in your private
21:41
Speaker 9: space when you're trying to change is incredibly unfair. It's wrong,
21:45
Speaker 9: and this is really where the the you know, the
21:48
Speaker 9: UK judgment is so important because it brought clarity that
21:52
Speaker 9: women's rights when they clash with the rights of you know,
21:56
Speaker 9: transgender men that want to be women, that women's rights
21:59
Speaker 9: under law should take president.
22:01
Speaker 10: Men have their own spaces, women don't.
22:04
Speaker 9: And what's really frustrating is it seems that in this
22:07
Speaker 9: country we're waiting for incidences like this with girls complaining
22:10
Speaker 9: or assaults to happen before we have a political leader
22:13
Speaker 9: who will actually take charge and do something.
22:17
Speaker 3: But one of the chances of girls coming forward when
22:21
Speaker 3: they are attacked anytime somebody speaks that even when you
22:23
Speaker 3: have detransitioners speak out in this country, people who have
22:26
Speaker 3: gone through the process of changing their gender and they've
22:30
Speaker 3: regretted that gone back and they speak out about their
22:33
Speaker 3: experience to try to warn others. The attacks against them,
22:36
Speaker 3: Stephanie are so fierce, so ugly, that you can understand
22:40
Speaker 3: why most people choose to be silent. And what that
22:43
Speaker 3: girl said there that really struck home was the adults
22:46
Speaker 3: making them feel like their feelings, their discomfort or somehow
22:51
Speaker 3: wrong that they should be okay with a young man
22:55
Speaker 3: watching them undress because that young man says I'm a woman,
22:58
Speaker 3: even though they know it's a man.
23:03
Speaker 10: Absolutely, that happens in this country.
23:05
Speaker 9: Caroline Marcus broke a story on a school last year
23:08
Speaker 9: at Saint Hilda's in Perth, where female students were distressed
23:12
Speaker 9: by the treatment of a transgendered male teacher and the
23:15
Speaker 9: way he was making them feel with his activism in
23:18
Speaker 9: the classroom. The parents came to Women's Forum Australia initially,
23:22
Speaker 9: but they felt they could not come out publicly because
23:24
Speaker 9: they didn't want to destroy their daughter's lives and they
23:27
Speaker 9: also didn't want to, you know, upset their role in
23:30
Speaker 9: the community because of the public pressure. There is no platform,
23:34
Speaker 9: there's no way for these girls to have a voice
23:35
Speaker 9: in this country, while the bureaucrats and our weak politicians
23:39
Speaker 9: refused to stand up and do something about it and
23:41
Speaker 9: provide them the safety to speak out.
23:46
Speaker 3: Sephanie Bashian, thanks for your time tonight Still to come
23:49
Speaker 3: a lefties losing ed class, a surge in lectures politically
23:53
Speaker 3: motivated violence in the US Kosher Gator as the details.
24:06
Speaker 3: You're watching the Rita Panny Show and it's time for
24:09
Speaker 3: left He's losing it. Let's hear from teds sufferer and
24:13
Speaker 3: quizzling Adam Kissinger, who spent four years crying about January.
24:18
Speaker 4: Sixth, Remember him, Well, he's.
24:20
Speaker 3: Now calling for Americans to take to the streets because
24:23
Speaker 3: they are in unbelievably uncharted territory. I don't know about you,
24:28
Speaker 3: but this all sounds a little bit insurrectiony to me.
24:31
Speaker 11: Listen, we are in unbelievably uncharted territory here, and you
24:36
Speaker 11: know we're approaching the point where I mean, I mean, honestly,
24:42
Speaker 11: it's like we're all going to have take to the
24:44
Speaker 11: streets or something.
24:45
Speaker 3: Now to the Democrats' latest star, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett, she
24:50
Speaker 3: wants you to know that she is a serious lawmaker
24:53
Speaker 3: and she's a black woman.
24:55
Speaker 10: To nobody every day walk in the hall.
24:57
Speaker 12: Regardless of whatever rhetoric the put out about me, I
25:01
Speaker 12: am a very serious woman.
25:04
Speaker 4: At the same time, exactly, n I'm pletely a black
25:14
Speaker 4: woman at the same time. Why is she telling us
25:17
Speaker 4: she's a black woman who can see that?
25:19
Speaker 3: And why should that be contrasted against her being a
25:22
Speaker 3: serious lawmaker. These Democrats are so race obsessed that sometimes
25:27
Speaker 3: they inadvertently are racist against themselves. Now to the women
25:31
Speaker 3: many Democrats want to see as a presidential candidate, Michelle Obama.
25:36
Speaker 4: Here she is on her woefully low.
25:39
Speaker 3: Rating podcast talking about how hard married life is. Well,
25:43
Speaker 3: it is when you're married to Barak.
25:45
Speaker 14: I think sometimes people who date don't realize that. You know,
25:49
Speaker 14: in long term relationships, you're gonna you're gonna have deep,
25:53
Speaker 14: deep dips, and you're gonna have to have a bad year.
25:56
Speaker 14: You're gonna have a bad I tell people, and folks
25:58
Speaker 14: think that this is horsh's You're gonna have a bad decade. Yeah,
26:01
Speaker 14: you know. I mean I've been married to my husband
26:04
Speaker 14: for thirty plus years. I mean the truth is, if
26:07
Speaker 14: you add it all up, even the year, haven't If
26:10
Speaker 14: the odds were you're going to be married to your
26:12
Speaker 14: partner for fifty years and ten of those years could
26:16
Speaker 14: be bad. You know that's you'd sign up for it.
26:19
Speaker 14: You'd sign up for it.
26:21
Speaker 4: No, thanks, Michelle.
26:22
Speaker 3: A miserable decade, think I'll give that a pass. You know,
26:26
Speaker 3: it's not the eighteen twenties. Anymore women can be single nowadays.
26:31
Speaker 3: Let's see it from a couple of mask wearing transactivists.
26:34
Speaker 3: Now one of them is hailing Satan while the other
26:38
Speaker 3: is talking about love and tolerance and solidarity.
26:41
Speaker 15: What I say, fear, really comfort, really really afraidable that.
26:53
Speaker 16: You see true sellers you're afraid of.
26:58
Speaker 6: You're a freedom solary, not craze.
27:06
Speaker 4: She's cooling others. Crazy bliss and the elefties are turning
27:11
Speaker 4: on each other. It seems even members of the.
27:13
Speaker 3: LGBT QUIA plus plus community failed to be sufficiently sensitive
27:19
Speaker 3: to pronoun preferences.
27:21
Speaker 15: It is one thing to get missgendered by like straight
27:23
Speaker 15: CIS people, but it is another thing going into a
27:25
Speaker 15: queer space and getting nothing but miss gendered there. Like
27:28
Speaker 15: that pisses me off so bad. I was at the
27:31
Speaker 15: gay bar last night. The gay bar is always the
27:33
Speaker 15: scene at the crime okay, And I'm in line waiting
27:36
Speaker 15: for the bathroom, and like there's staws and there's journals right,
27:38
Speaker 15: and like anybody that's using the Jurnal, I just let
27:40
Speaker 15: them go in front of me. And then I'm waiting
27:41
Speaker 15: for a stall and some guy comes out and he's like,
27:45
Speaker 15: he says something about the journals and he was like, oh,
27:48
Speaker 15: you're waiting for the stall and I was like, yes,
27:49
Speaker 15: I am, and he was like, and that is a
27:51
Speaker 15: woman's right. What gave him the audacity to say that?
27:56
Speaker 2: To me?
27:57
Speaker 4: Here is a mother who climbs that hooch.
28:00
Speaker 3: Kyle told her the age of eighteen months that they're trans.
28:05
Speaker 4: They've been trans since birth.
28:07
Speaker 17: What age do you think most trans kids determine that
28:10
Speaker 17: they're transh.
28:12
Speaker 12: Violent told us when she was one and a half.
28:17
Speaker 17: She's been telling us since she could speak, so she
28:22
Speaker 17: knew since birth.
28:24
Speaker 3: And while we're on this issue, there's been more fallout
28:26
Speaker 3: from the UK Supreme Court decision last week, the unanimous
28:30
Speaker 3: landmark ruling that defines what a woman is and guess what,
28:33
Speaker 3: it's an adult female. As we've always told you, it's
28:36
Speaker 3: a biological female. They have to be born, they can't
28:39
Speaker 3: be made. But not everyone is taking the decision.
28:42
Speaker 5: Well, you've probably heard about this Supreme Court's ruling on
28:45
Speaker 5: the definition of the word woman. This will have some
28:50
Speaker 5: real serious implications. It will have some consequences. But I
28:55
Speaker 5: want to tell you one thing. They can make their laws,
28:59
Speaker 5: they can specify their definitions. They could take away my
29:03
Speaker 5: rights but there's one thing that they'll never be able
29:07
Speaker 5: to take from me, and that's who I am. I'm
29:11
Speaker 5: a trans woman and I'm proud, and they'll never be
29:15
Speaker 5: able to take that from me.
29:17
Speaker 3: And this next leftist feminist claims this victory for women's
29:21
Speaker 3: rights is in fact a victory for the patriarchy. This
29:25
Speaker 3: old fool seems to think that women who are well
29:28
Speaker 3: built or who have short hair will be mistaken for
29:31
Speaker 3: men and will have to.
29:32
Speaker 4: Prove their woman who had Seriously, that's the argument. Have
29:36
Speaker 4: a listen.
29:37
Speaker 13: Please stop talking about this court decision that was made
29:39
Speaker 13: yesterday about the definition of what a woman is as
29:42
Speaker 13: and framing it within a victory for a feminist context.
29:46
Speaker 14: It is not.
29:47
Speaker 13: Those people are like leftovers from the nineteen eighties. They
29:52
Speaker 13: are exclusionary feminists. They are nothing to do with a
29:55
Speaker 13: modern feminist movement. And this is absolutely not a victory
29:58
Speaker 13: for women's rights.
30:00
Speaker 15: What you have done.
30:01
Speaker 4: You know, we now all have to.
30:02
Speaker 13: Prove that we are women in order to get the
30:04
Speaker 13: services that we most feel most comfortable in. Technically, I
30:08
Speaker 13: will have to prove that I am a woman to
30:10
Speaker 13: be able to be searched by a female officer. If
30:12
Speaker 13: I'm arrested by the police. I mean, you could say, well,
30:15
Speaker 13: you look like a woman, and you sound like a woman,
30:17
Speaker 13: but so do a lot of my trans female friends.
30:21
Speaker 13: What about my friends who have got polycystic ovary syndrome
30:24
Speaker 13: and are a little bit hairy about the face. What
30:26
Speaker 13: about my friends who are quite tall and well built
30:29
Speaker 13: with square jaws and look a little bit masculine? What
30:31
Speaker 13: about them? This is not a victory for women's rights.
30:34
Speaker 13: This is a victory for the patriarchy.
30:35
Speaker 18: Yep.
30:36
Speaker 3: That's the argument. That's how desperate and he logical they're getting.
30:40
Speaker 3: That's what they think is a winning argument in this debate. Now,
30:44
Speaker 3: let's go to the US and a heartbreaking case of
30:47
Speaker 3: senseless violence and a broken justice system. Comelo Anthony stepped
30:52
Speaker 3: it with a seventeen year old boy, Austin med Cuff,
30:55
Speaker 3: at a track meet in Frisco, Texas.
30:58
Speaker 4: Austin died in his twin brothers arms.
31:01
Speaker 3: Afterwards, we had the vile spectacle of people defending this
31:05
Speaker 3: team killer. People raised hundreds of thousands of dollars for him.
31:09
Speaker 3: He walked free from jail on April fourteen, after his
31:12
Speaker 3: bond was reduced from one million to two hundred and
31:15
Speaker 3: fifty thousand, and since then, his family and his representatives
31:20
Speaker 3: have played the victim. Here, a representative, Dominique Alexander attacks
31:25
Speaker 3: Austin Metcalf's father, the victim's father, Jeff, for attending a
31:30
Speaker 3: press conference held by the Anthony family.
31:33
Speaker 19: That was disrespectful and just shows you all.
31:40
Speaker 2: The character who was not invited.
31:46
Speaker 19: He knows that is inappropriate to be near this family,
31:51
Speaker 19: but he did it. And so I say to people,
31:55
Speaker 19: actions speak louder than words.
31:58
Speaker 3: Yes, the grieving father being there is apparently a disrespect
32:02
Speaker 3: to the dignity of his son. The father was asked
32:04
Speaker 3: to leave and guess what he left. He didn't stab
32:07
Speaker 3: anyone because he was asked to leave. Now this press conference,
32:11
Speaker 3: we also heard from the accused mother.
32:13
Speaker 15: The lives and false accusations that have been said about us,
32:18
Speaker 15: especially over the past week, has been overwhelming.
32:21
Speaker 3: And then we were back to Dominic Alexander, the family's representative,
32:25
Speaker 3: blaming the school for wanting to expel this thug, and then.
32:30
Speaker 4: He unbelievably blamed the weather for what happened that day.
32:34
Speaker 19: Frisco ISD has notified of their intent to expel Carmelo
32:40
Speaker 19: Anthony from school. One month before his high school graduation.
32:47
Speaker 19: That just shows me that Frisco ISD is trying to
32:52
Speaker 19: push off the blame. And what I have not heard
32:56
Speaker 19: the media say as many media outlets have as does
33:00
Speaker 19: what went on. I'm trying to find how many of
33:04
Speaker 19: y'all have asked a superintendent on one single border, Trustee,
33:10
Speaker 19: why didn't you counsel or postpone with weather in that magnitude?
33:16
Speaker 19: You couldn't have a track meet in rain or thunderstorm
33:20
Speaker 19: or clouds.
33:21
Speaker 2: Y'all?
33:21
Speaker 19: Are the media as your journalists, your weather journalists, how
33:26
Speaker 19: the weather was that day in that time?
33:28
Speaker 2: Y'all do that research?
33:30
Speaker 3: Joining me now, as kan used contributor Kosha Gaida Kosha,
33:33
Speaker 3: this case is incredible. If the races were reversed here,
33:38
Speaker 3: I think the media coverage would be dramatically different. And
33:42
Speaker 3: the manner in which Carmelo Anthony's family is playing the victim,
33:47
Speaker 3: raising money, holding press conferences, I mean that's quite incredible
33:52
Speaker 3: as well.
33:53
Speaker 4: It really is.
33:53
Speaker 20: I mean it's so brazen. This whole flipping of victimhood
33:57
Speaker 20: and the culture has just turned into this victim motals
34:00
Speaker 20: and now you're seeing it in its worst possible place.
34:02
Speaker 20: When you've got this senseless, depraved, heinous aft murder that
34:07
Speaker 20: was conducted, and even that's been wrapped up along racial lines,
34:10
Speaker 20: which has nothing to do with it. The spokesperson, Dominice
34:13
Speaker 20: Alexander that they hired he himself as a criminal record.
34:17
Speaker 20: He's a convicted felon from twenty eleven. He's out there
34:20
Speaker 20: with some nerve saying the things that he said, kicking
34:23
Speaker 20: out the father and then the mother, wrapping all of
34:25
Speaker 20: that up again, no awareness at all or even acknowledgment
34:29
Speaker 20: of what the actual victims family is going through. It's
34:33
Speaker 20: beyond me. I thought most things won't shock me anymore,
34:35
Speaker 20: but this one shocks me too.
34:36
Speaker 7: Me.
34:37
Speaker 3: It really just shows a sickness that exists in America
34:41
Speaker 3: right now with those who are just race obsessed and
34:44
Speaker 3: they want to look through look at this through a
34:46
Speaker 3: racial filter, and they just cannot cope with the fact
34:50
Speaker 3: that the victim here happened to be white, the aggressor
34:53
Speaker 3: happened to be black.
34:54
Speaker 4: That shouldn't be the issue. Should be the fact there.
34:56
Speaker 3: Is a teenage boy who's dead, who died in his
34:59
Speaker 3: twin brother's arm, and he's forgotten whilst the victim is
35:03
Speaker 3: being lionized and hundreds of thousands of dollars being raised
35:06
Speaker 3: for him. Now to more leftists lawlessness, and one of
35:12
Speaker 3: Tim Walls's state employees stands accused of causing around twenty
35:16
Speaker 3: thousand dollars in damage vandalizing Tesla's Here he is film
35:22
Speaker 3: looks like he's keying cars.
35:24
Speaker 5: There.
35:24
Speaker 3: There is ample footage of these alleged incidents. Dylan Bryan
35:28
Speaker 3: Adams is a fiscal policy analyst, a Minnesota state employee.
35:33
Speaker 3: He's been arrested Kosher And this comes just a few
35:36
Speaker 3: weeks after we heard Tim Walls, the failed vice presidential candidate,
35:41
Speaker 3: mocking Tesla's share price falling, attacking Elon Musk repeatedly, and
35:48
Speaker 3: to see these acts across the country, people going around
35:52
Speaker 3: vandalizing cars belonging to individuals, not just I'm not advocating
35:57
Speaker 3: for attacking dealerships, but when you're actually attacking the per
36:00
Speaker 3: property of someone, I mean, really, Again, we talked about
36:04
Speaker 3: sickness that exists.
36:05
Speaker 4: This is another example of it.
36:06
Speaker 20: It is another example, and I think the meta point
36:09
Speaker 20: is that the consequences are just too soft and too
36:12
Speaker 20: weak in culture in general, decriminalization, selective outrage, letting certain
36:17
Speaker 20: people off the hook, based on where they fall. In
36:19
Speaker 20: this case, this policy analyst did get arrested, as you mentioned,
36:23
Speaker 20: So there are some consequences which are necessary to have
36:26
Speaker 20: to terms. But unless and until we see that much
36:29
Speaker 20: more strongly, unfortunately, I think these acts are only going
36:31
Speaker 20: to continue because people either they can skirt some sort
36:35
Speaker 20: of punishment, or even further, they're actually glorified by a
36:39
Speaker 20: portion of the left and so they want to do
36:41
Speaker 20: these kinds of things.
36:41
Speaker 3: Absolutely, we've had a lot of Democrat politicians refusing to
36:47
Speaker 3: disavow this sort of violence, and the left has become
36:52
Speaker 3: increasingly activist and violent in its behavior. We saw that
36:57
Speaker 3: throughout the BLM rights around two billion dollars worth of damage,
37:01
Speaker 3: very few consequences and arrest. You compare that to say,
37:04
Speaker 3: what happened on January sixth and people being in solitary
37:08
Speaker 3: confinement for months. How do you see this issue and
37:13
Speaker 3: how it separates America? Because when people talk about two Americas,
37:17
Speaker 3: I think this is really central to that issue, where
37:20
Speaker 3: people have lost faith in those institutions, They've lost faith
37:25
Speaker 3: in the fact that they're going to have equal justice
37:27
Speaker 3: under the law.
37:28
Speaker 20: I know it really does show that to America. The
37:31
Speaker 20: divorce symbolically that's happening gets much more hitting you in
37:36
Speaker 20: your home on the streets when it comes down to
37:38
Speaker 20: crime and the actual criminal justice system being fair or not.
37:42
Speaker 20: And when we look at all these cases, whether it's
37:44
Speaker 20: Carl Writtenhouse or Daniel Penny, and all of those, you
37:47
Speaker 20: could see how had they been tried somewhere else. Carl
37:49
Speaker 20: written House, certainly in a different jury in a different state,
37:52
Speaker 20: the outcome would have been different. Downiel Penny squeaked by
37:55
Speaker 20: through a hair's breath. That is very, very scary to
37:58
Speaker 20: a lot of people that if something God forbid where
38:00
Speaker 20: to happen, and you find yourself in that situation, if
38:02
Speaker 20: you live in the wrong jury pool, you can't trust
38:05
Speaker 20: the system anymore.
38:06
Speaker 3: Now, Pambondi, the Turney General, has said that she's going
38:09
Speaker 3: to be treating these cases like domestic terrorism. They're politically
38:14
Speaker 3: motivated acts of violence, so they fit the definition of terrorism.
38:20
Speaker 3: Will that diswade some of these people from acting out,
38:23
Speaker 3: because I think part of the reason why we've seen
38:26
Speaker 3: this increasing violence is because they watch those BLM rights,
38:30
Speaker 3: they watch those Antifa riots, and really not much happened
38:34
Speaker 3: to those who were guilty of causing enormous damage.
38:37
Speaker 20: Yeah, and that's the learned behavior. I do think if
38:39
Speaker 20: you make one or two examples of people within the law,
38:43
Speaker 20: it often and history shows us at will serve as
38:46
Speaker 20: a deterrened Whether you look at illegal immigration, different issue,
38:49
Speaker 20: but that sending plainloads of people over Tael Salvador is
38:52
Speaker 20: a determ for people whon't want to be caught in
38:54
Speaker 20: the net of this administration. And then domestically it's a
38:57
Speaker 20: bit trickier in terms of what statutes can apply and
38:59
Speaker 20: how far you can push them. But to the extent
39:02
Speaker 20: of the law, the fullest extent of the law, if
39:04
Speaker 20: you prosecute one, two, three of these folks in the
39:07
Speaker 20: harshest terms that are legally available to I do think
39:09
Speaker 20: it'll serve as a deterred.
39:10
Speaker 3: I think that's part of the reason we're seeing the
39:13
Speaker 3: illegal immigration crisis be resolved, because why would you come
39:17
Speaker 3: across if you're going to be said back, if you're
39:19
Speaker 3: going to be locked up, and if you're a criminal,
39:21
Speaker 3: you could be sent to a mega prison in El Salvador.
39:24
Speaker 3: Now the media is reporting that the Trump administration is
39:28
Speaker 3: looking to replace Defense Secretary Peter Hegset, with reports claiming
39:32
Speaker 3: that he shared classified information in a group chat with
39:36
Speaker 3: his wife, brother, and lawyer.
39:39
Speaker 4: Pick Hexeth was asked about this. This was his response.
39:43
Speaker 21: You know what a big surprise that a bunch of
39:46
Speaker 21: a few leakers get fired and suddenly a bunch of
39:48
Speaker 21: hit pieces come out from the same media that pedaled
39:51
Speaker 21: the Russia hopes won't get back their Pulitzers.
39:54
Speaker 2: They got Pultus for a bunch of lies? What poltus
39:57
Speaker 2: for a bunch of lies?
39:59
Speaker 16: Un hoaxing time and time and time again, and as
40:04
Speaker 16: they pedal those lives, no one ever calls them on it.
40:06
Speaker 2: See, this is what the media does. They take anonymous
40:09
Speaker 2: sources from disgruntled former.
40:12
Speaker 16: Employees and then they try to slash and burn people
40:15
Speaker 16: and ruin their reputations.
40:16
Speaker 2: Not going to work with me because we're.
40:19
Speaker 16: Changing the Defense department, putting the pedagon back in the
40:22
Speaker 16: hands of war fighters, and anonymous smears from disgruntled former
40:26
Speaker 16: employees on old news doesn't matter.
40:29
Speaker 3: Now the leftist media, including in pr A, saying that
40:33
Speaker 3: the Trump administration is looking to replace Pete Hegzeth, but
40:37
Speaker 3: the President is backing his man.
40:39
Speaker 10: This is what he had to say earlier as.
40:41
Speaker 15: The who He's how much dysfunction.
40:43
Speaker 2: Is Peach's doing a great job. Everybody's happy with them.
40:48
Speaker 6: We have the highest recruitment group and numbers I think
40:50
Speaker 6: they've had in twenty eight years.
40:53
Speaker 20: No, he's doing a great job.
40:55
Speaker 6: It's just speaking news.
40:56
Speaker 20: They just bring up stories.
40:57
Speaker 2: I guess it sounds like disgruntled employees. You know, he
41:00
Speaker 2: was split there to get rid of a lot of
41:02
Speaker 2: bad people, and that's what he's doing for So you
41:05
Speaker 2: don't always have friends.
41:06
Speaker 4: When you do that, you sack a lot of people,
41:08
Speaker 4: You create a lot.
41:09
Speaker 3: Of disgruntled, anonymous lakers. He has a point there. It
41:13
Speaker 3: doesn't look like Hexit's job is in Jepardy there.
41:17
Speaker 20: At least from that statement, it does not look Trump
41:20
Speaker 20: is not afraid to fire people. He has done that.
41:22
Speaker 20: He's famous for that. You fired people, called it chaos.
41:25
Speaker 20: He's also not afraid to stick by people in the
41:28
Speaker 20: wake of media onslaught or opposition onslot like this. The
41:32
Speaker 20: example it comes to mind for me is Brett Kavanaugh.
41:34
Speaker 20: Just as Kavanaugh on his confirmation hearing, he was under
41:37
Speaker 20: enormous pressure from everybody and their mother to pull that nomination.
41:41
Speaker 20: He did not, And I think he is tuned into
41:44
Speaker 20: what he would call witch hunts against people that are
41:47
Speaker 20: in there trying to enact his agenda and fighting back
41:49
Speaker 20: against protective interests, protected interests that want them gone. And
41:52
Speaker 20: I'm sure that's playing a part, and until he sees otherwise,
41:56
Speaker 20: I think he will back his managers.
41:57
Speaker 3: I think it almost makes him increases support for them
42:02
Speaker 3: because he's faced that himself. He sees how unfairther the
42:05
Speaker 3: media it has been to him, and when the media
42:08
Speaker 3: piles on an individual, I think he gives them the
42:10
Speaker 3: benefit of the doubt. I mean Amy Coney Barrett. Maybe
42:14
Speaker 3: they should have been a bit more pressure to get
42:16
Speaker 3: rid of her, because that seems to be one of
42:18
Speaker 3: his bigger mistakes. He mentioned the recruitment numbers there just
42:22
Speaker 3: before you go, we are saying record numbers wanting to
42:26
Speaker 3: join the military, record numbers wanting to join the FBI.
42:30
Speaker 3: That does seem to be a reinvigoration of those institutions
42:35
Speaker 3: under the Trump presidency.
42:37
Speaker 20: Which is huge, and that is ultimately the metric that
42:39
Speaker 20: matters to Trump. He is there to do a job.
42:42
Speaker 20: Recruitment was a big problem with the military from DEI
42:45
Speaker 20: and firing people for not getting vaccinated and all those
42:47
Speaker 20: things that they did. People didn't feel inspired to serve,
42:50
Speaker 20: and this is meant to be the most lethal fighting
42:53
Speaker 20: force in the history of the world. So it is
42:56
Speaker 20: Hexad definitely is doing a good job in that regard,
42:58
Speaker 20: and surely Trump is taking a look at that in
43:02
Speaker 20: the context of everything else, and he's going to always
43:04
Speaker 20: prioritize that because that's ultimately what it's about for him.
43:07
Speaker 4: Koshagata, thank you for your time.
43:08
Speaker 20: Pleasure.
43:09
Speaker 3: So if you come Alex Stein's campaign to end the
43:12
Speaker 3: deportation of cot Latina's, Yes, you'll be with.
43:16
Speaker 4: Me after.
43:26

43:30
Speaker 3: with Alex Stein on Blaze TV.
43:32
Speaker 4: Alex, we have serious.
43:34
Speaker 3: Issues to discuss, but let's start with your harassment of
43:37
Speaker 3: the Trump Administration's borders. Are Tom Homan and you're campaign
43:42
Speaker 3: to stop the deportation of big booty Latinas.
43:48
Speaker 7: Can the big booty Latina stay, Yeah, Alex stin immigration plan.
43:53
Speaker 18: Look it up, Big boody Latinas can stay protect big

44:00
Speaker 16: There's no big body Latinos getting reported, Alex seime plans to.
44:07
Speaker 2: This.
44:07
Speaker 3: Man is trying to do an important job Alex And
44:12
Speaker 3: you know what I think you could do with a
44:13
Speaker 3: spell in a mega prison in El Salvador.
44:16
Speaker 4: I think he'll do you good.
44:18
Speaker 18: No, Riata, I do not want to go to a
44:21
Speaker 18: mega jail and al Savador. But see, you know it's funny.
44:24
Speaker 18: You have just been a victim of the primetime Alexander
44:28
Speaker 18: experience because that Rita is actually my producer, Jimmy, and
44:32
Speaker 18: he's an even bigger idiot than me. For going out
44:36
Speaker 18: there and yelling at Tom Holman. I mean, it's not
44:38
Speaker 18: like I don't cause myself, and I've had you.
44:40
Speaker 2: Own it, and in fact, you own it.
44:41
Speaker 4: Alex it's your campaign.
44:43
Speaker 3: Don't try to dodge responsibility and point the finger out
44:48
Speaker 3: your poor employees, your underlings.
44:51
Speaker 4: This is all you.
44:52
Speaker 3: You started this, and now poor Tom holm And is
44:55
Speaker 3: trying to answer questions and being having question it's about
45:00
Speaker 3: big booty Latina's post to him.
45:03
Speaker 18: Alex, Well, Rita, and this is a serious thing because
45:07
Speaker 18: my housekeeper Juanita, and if she was to get deported, I.
45:10
Speaker 2: Would have no idea what to do.
45:12
Speaker 18: I would literally be lost. So you know I don't
45:15
Speaker 18: want everybody deported, if we're being honest.
45:18
Speaker 4: No, no, let's let's let's save Juanita.
45:20
Speaker 14: Uh.
45:21
Speaker 3: Now, President Trump enjoyed Easter festivities with First Lady Milania,
45:25
Speaker 3: and of course the Easter Bunny was there, and the
45:29
Speaker 3: President was reminiscing about that infamous bunny handler incident with
45:33
Speaker 3: Joe Biden.
45:34
Speaker 4: Let's have a look.
45:45
Speaker 2: Yeah, you remember the bunny with Joe Biden.
45:51
Speaker 21: Remember you remember when the when the bunny took Joe
45:55
Speaker 21: Biden out.
45:57
Speaker 2: He's not gonna take He's not taking Trump anyway.
46:01
Speaker 4: That was good. That was a beautiful moment when the
46:04
Speaker 4: Boody saved Bill Baden Alex. He really is the funniest president.
46:08
Speaker 3: He never misses the chance to remind everybody about the
46:11
Speaker 3: cognitive decline of his predecessor.
46:15
Speaker 18: No, Donald Trump is the number one comedian in the
46:18
Speaker 18: world right now. I mean, I don't believe anybody is
46:21
Speaker 18: funnier than him. And when it comes to Easter, I'm
46:23
Speaker 18: just happy that all of the people that are at
46:25
Speaker 18: the egg roll this year kept their tops on, because
46:28
Speaker 18: that wasn't the case under the Biden administration. There's a
46:31
Speaker 18: lot there's a lot of people doing a lot of
46:32
Speaker 18: weird stuff at their Easter celebration, which is obviously you know,
46:36
Speaker 18: a Christian holiday, So I'm happy that Donald Trump is
46:39
Speaker 18: actually showing respect for the holiday and not a mockery
46:43
Speaker 18: like the Biden administration did.
46:46
Speaker 4: Well.
46:46
Speaker 3: Yes, the Trump White House declined the opportunity to make
46:50
Speaker 3: it a trans Day of Awareness.
46:52
Speaker 4: Celebration, so yeah, that was a wise move.
46:55
Speaker 3: Indeed, Alex, the Democrats continue to travel to El Salvador
47:01
Speaker 3: to advocate on behalf of an MS thirteen gang banger
47:04
Speaker 3: deported to El Salvador.
47:06
Speaker 4: Here is a Democrat. Max Frostban asked about this.
47:11
Speaker 12: Why Congressman, are you an El Salvador. You are there
47:14
Speaker 12: for an El Salvadorian man who was a resident illegally
47:18
Speaker 12: of Maryland. You're a congressman from Florida. Why are you
47:21
Speaker 12: in El Salvador.
47:24
Speaker 17: Well, we're here because a man who had protected status
47:28
Speaker 17: in Maryland, a Maryland man union member worker with a
47:31
Speaker 17: citizen wife and beautiful children, was taken out of his
47:35
Speaker 17: state and out of the United States and back over
47:38
Speaker 17: here without due process.
47:40
Speaker 3: He was an illegal immigrant from El Salvador. He's been
47:43
Speaker 3: deported to El Salvador, and Alex he was not only
47:46
Speaker 3: found to be a gang banger, but he was not
47:49
Speaker 3: exactly a great husband. To that beautiful wife that the
47:52
Speaker 3: Democrat politician referred to.
47:57
Speaker 18: No reader, not very nice whatsoever. Criminal history. And you know,
48:01
Speaker 18: I have to give kudos to Michael Strahan for actually
48:05
Speaker 18: asking her that tough question about her husband's criminal past.
48:08
Speaker 18: So listen, the Democrats have a serious problem when it
48:12
Speaker 18: comes to picking their heroes. From George Floyd to this guy,
48:16
Speaker 18: to Jesse's Smalllett to whoever it is, they can't find
48:19
Speaker 18: a person to get behind. They always pick the worst
48:24
Speaker 18: possible representation of their party.
48:29
Speaker 4: They are just so stupid when it comes to this issue.
48:32
Speaker 4: There's no other way to talk about it.
48:34
Speaker 3: It is just a loser for them each and every time.
48:38
Speaker 3: Alex Stein, thank you so much for your time tonight.
48:41
Speaker 3: And that's it from May.
48:43
Speaker 4: Up next is Newsnight. I'll see you at eleven tomorrow night.
