Speaker 1: On scorn lids Oscodia. This is the Wader Panety Show.
0:08
Speaker 2: Good evening, and welcome to the Riata Panehy Show.
0:10
Speaker 3: Coming up tonight, Douglas Murray joins me to talk about
0:13
Speaker 3: everything from Kamala's achilles heel to Princess Catherine's good news.
0:18
Speaker 2: That's coming up before the first ad break.
0:20
Speaker 3: Caroline Marcus with the latest on a shocking crime in
0:24
Speaker 3: Brisbane that has left a nine month old with horrific injuries.
0:28
Speaker 3: And later in the hour, the brilliant Josh Hammer will
0:31
Speaker 3: be here with the latest from the US, and we
0:34
Speaker 3: have another extended edition of Lefties Losing.
0:37
Speaker 2: It starring this exhausting woman.
0:40
Speaker 4: And then all of a sudden, out of the mom's mouth,
0:42
Speaker 4: I hear the trigger words non binary and gender fluid
0:45
Speaker 4: and quotas in session and my ears are turned on.
0:48
Speaker 5: Let's do this.
0:48
Speaker 3: Joining me now, Senior reporter Caroline Marcus. Carolette's start with
0:53
Speaker 3: one of the most disturbing stories of the year, the
0:56
Speaker 3: attack against baby Luca in a Brisbane park.
0:59
Speaker 2: Police say the foreign.
1:01
Speaker 3: National who allegedly poured boiling coffee on this nine month
1:06
Speaker 3: old baby in a Brisbane park last month has fled
1:09
Speaker 3: the country before police could confirm his identity. Baby Lucas
1:14
Speaker 3: suffered life threatening burns and has undergone multiple surgeries since
1:18
Speaker 3: the August twenty seven attack, including skin graps. Police say
1:23
Speaker 3: the accused left the country a day before they were
1:27
Speaker 3: able to confirm his identity.
1:29
Speaker 2: A warrant has.
1:30
Speaker 3: Been obtained for his arrest for acts intending to cause
1:34
Speaker 3: grievous bodily harm. Caroline, what else can you tell me
1:39
Speaker 3: about this investigation and the likelihood of bringing this alleged
1:43
Speaker 3: defender to justice.
1:45
Speaker 6: Well, I guess the likelihood has got just that little
1:48
Speaker 6: bit lower, reader, because as we now know, this man
1:53
Speaker 6: has evaded police and managed to get out of the
1:57
Speaker 6: country just twelve hours before police identified him in what
2:03
Speaker 6: has to be the most sickening senseless crime of the
2:07
Speaker 6: year so far. It just discussed me every time I
2:11
Speaker 6: hear or read anything about this case. Police have said
2:15
Speaker 6: that this suspect had been using counter surveillance techniques in
2:20
Speaker 6: order to evade arrest, which does seem to suggest some
2:24
Speaker 6: degree of sophistication on the offender's part. It's just a
2:29
Speaker 6: question now in working with the international and interstate agencies,
2:33
Speaker 6: because this man allegedly had been staying in New South
2:38
Speaker 6: Wales for some of the time that he'd been coming
2:41
Speaker 6: in between here and overseas. We don't know where he's foreign.
2:44
Speaker 6: Police won't say since twenty nineteen, whether they can track
2:49
Speaker 6: him down in the foreign country, whether there's any sort
2:52
Speaker 6: of extradition agreement wherever he ends up being. You've just
2:57
Speaker 6: got to hope that this man can be brought to
3:01
Speaker 6: justice because what's happened here is absolutely horrific. I mean,
3:06
Speaker 6: this poor family and the trauma that baby Luca and
3:10
Speaker 6: his parents have gone through now is just beyond words.
3:15
Speaker 6: And the mother has said that she would support capital
3:19
Speaker 6: punishment for Luca's attacker, and I think, well, that's not
3:23
Speaker 6: an option in Australia. Obviously, even the most ardent opposers
3:28
Speaker 6: of the death penalty would find that hard to disagree with.
3:33
Speaker 2: Absolutely.
3:34
Speaker 3: Now to Victoria and the Liberal Party has acted their
3:38
Speaker 3: candidate for the seat of Chisholm. They're now going to
3:42
Speaker 3: be putting into that seat former Higgins MP Katie Allen.
3:47
Speaker 3: Allen was the candidate for Higgins, which was abolish when
3:51
Speaker 3: electoral boundaries were redrawn, and it seems this decision has
3:55
Speaker 3: really upset the rank and file members at Chisholm, who
3:58
Speaker 3: had no say in the matter.
3:59
Speaker 2: I've got copy of.
4:00
Speaker 3: An internal party letter from the Electorate secretary which says,
4:05
Speaker 3: in my time in the party, I have never seen
4:08
Speaker 3: as much sadness amongst members as I have these past
4:12
Speaker 3: twenty four hours without any pre selection or member input.
4:16
Speaker 3: I can understand why many of you are questioning the
4:19
Speaker 3: legitimacy of this decision. Unlike Labor, we value membership and
4:24
Speaker 3: rank and file pre selections. We value democracy with value transparency,
4:28
Speaker 3: we value fairness.
4:30
Speaker 2: Carolina Katie Allen is from Tuak.
4:34
Speaker 3: She lives a very different lifestyle to the average voter
4:38
Speaker 3: in Chisholm.
4:38
Speaker 2: How do you see this decision?
4:41
Speaker 6: Well, I can't help but see this decision as one
4:45
Speaker 6: that seems to be based almost entirely on her sex.
4:48
Speaker 6: Read I mean the fact that she's a woman. And
4:52
Speaker 6: I say that not because I don't think she'd be
4:54
Speaker 6: a competent and per she's been an MP before. She's
4:58
Speaker 6: a pediatrician, and I have a highest regard for people
5:01
Speaker 6: who work with six children. But the Liberal Party has
5:06
Speaker 6: acknowledged that it needs to address what's been called its
5:09
Speaker 6: women's problem, and in order to do that, before the
5:13
Speaker 6: next election, they need to pre select something like seventy
5:17
Speaker 6: percent of her candidates being women in order to achieve
5:22
Speaker 6: that gender parody. Now, I know a lot of women
5:24
Speaker 6: out there made cheer that there's a woman who's now
5:28
Speaker 6: going to be running for the Liberals, but a lot
5:30
Speaker 6: of women as well don't like that sort of tokenism.
5:34
Speaker 6: And that's what it appears to be, even if it
5:37
Speaker 6: may not be the case. That's how it at least
5:39
Speaker 6: appears with the election electorate redistribution. It's unfortunate that she
5:45
Speaker 6: wasn't able to run for Higgins again, but is it
5:50
Speaker 6: fair to displace someone who was the pre selected candidate.
5:55
Speaker 6: I understand why it would have blind signed it blindsided
5:59
Speaker 6: a lot of can file members yes, and less them
6:01
Speaker 6: feeling so angry.
6:04
Speaker 3: I think around thirty percent of a former electorate is
6:07
Speaker 3: now part of Chisholm. But in that thirty percent, there's
6:11
Speaker 3: from what I understand, nine boots and she lost eight
6:15
Speaker 3: of them. So that tells you a little bit but
6:19
Speaker 3: about how she may perform at the coming election, but
6:21
Speaker 3: we'll wait and see. She is a very good fundraiser
6:24
Speaker 3: and is a hard worker, certainly Now former South Australian
6:29
Speaker 3: Opposition leader David Spears is insisting that this.
6:32
Speaker 2: Footage of him appearing to snort.
6:34
Speaker 3: White powder surrounded by wine and liquor bottles is a
6:39
Speaker 3: deep fake. The clip, captured on June thirty this year,
6:43
Speaker 3: was obtained by the Adelaide Advertiser. Spears says he strongly
6:48
Speaker 3: disputes the authenticity of the video. He's told the Advertiser
6:52
Speaker 3: he believes it is a deep fake or elaborate hoax,
6:55
Speaker 3: adding I was overseas for two weeks in June and
6:58
Speaker 3: during that time other per since had access to my home,
7:02
Speaker 3: giving rise to the opportunity for someone to obtain footage
7:06
Speaker 3: of my premises. I am extremely disappointed by this and
7:09
Speaker 3: a sure South Australians that I would never take illicit substances.
7:13
Speaker 3: I never have and I never will. Now, we're not
7:16
Speaker 3: suggesting any wrongdoing on mister Spears's behalf here, but we're
7:21
Speaker 3: not saying these substances are even illegal. But Caroline, this
7:26
Speaker 3: is an astonishing story, a very twenty twenty four story.
7:31
Speaker 7: It is.
7:31
Speaker 6: Remember Brita when the excuse when politicians and other high
7:34
Speaker 6: profile people were caught out doing bad things online, they
7:39
Speaker 6: would say I've been hacked, someone's locked into my account
7:42
Speaker 6: and sexted someone. Now the excuse for twenty twenty four
7:45
Speaker 6: seems to be it's a deep fake. But the newspaper
7:48
Speaker 6: the Advertiser, who obtained these images have said they've checked
7:51
Speaker 6: the metadata. He was in the country when they were taken.
7:55
Speaker 6: They've also consulted with a forensics expert that the courts
7:59
Speaker 6: used that has said it doesn't appear that there were
8:01
Speaker 6: any any tampering or alterations, so it doesn't appear to
8:05
Speaker 6: be exactly how David Spears may be putting it.
8:09
Speaker 3: Caroline Marcus, thank you for your time this evening. Now
8:13
Speaker 3: they're left up becoming increasingly desperate and resorting to some
8:17
Speaker 3: ugly tactics. That's evident in the media too, with far
8:20
Speaker 3: left side criche publishing this bit of slander against Liberal
8:25
Speaker 3: leader Peter Dutta, and they have concluded that he is
8:28
Speaker 3: racist and this is their evidence.
8:30
Speaker 2: Brace yourself.
8:31
Speaker 3: So the number one reason he walked out of Parliament
8:35
Speaker 3: rather than here, the then Prime Minister Kevin Wright apologized
8:38
Speaker 3: to the so called stolen generations. He did mention the
8:42
Speaker 3: problem of rising African gang violence in Melbourne. He pointed
8:47
Speaker 3: out the need to counter Chinese aggression to keep peace
8:50
Speaker 3: in our region, and of course, most recently he called
8:53
Speaker 3: for a pause on visas for Gazans until thoroughchecks could
8:58
Speaker 3: be conducted. Joining me now as former Speaker of the
9:01
Speaker 3: House and Liberal National MP for Fisher Andrew Wallace. Andrew,
9:05
Speaker 3: what is your response to your leader being labeled racist?
9:11
Speaker 8: Well, you can always count on the left Rita to
9:14
Speaker 8: pull out the racist card when they're in strife, and
9:18
Speaker 8: boy are they in strife now. Look, I've known Peter
9:21
Speaker 8: for a long time. He's been a police officer for
9:24
Speaker 8: nine years. He's been the Immigration Minister, the Home Affairs Minister.
9:31
Speaker 8: He has had some tough portfolios and now he's in
9:33
Speaker 8: his toughest portfolio as the leader.
9:35
Speaker 9: Of the Opposition.
9:36
Speaker 8: But I can tell you now, and I can tell
9:38
Speaker 8: you your viewers, that you will not find a man
9:42
Speaker 8: who is more committed to the safety and security.
9:45
Speaker 9: Of Australians than Peter Dutton.
9:48
Speaker 8: And look, when you've seen everything that's gone on with
9:51
Speaker 8: Andrew Giles as the Immigration Minister and how poorly the
9:55
Speaker 8: Labor Party are conducting themselves from a national security perspective,
10:00
Speaker 8: what do you want? Do you want someone like Andrew
10:02
Speaker 8: Giles looking after the country? From an immigration perspective, or
10:06
Speaker 8: do you want someone like Peter Dutton calling the shots?
10:10
Speaker 9: I know which I'd rather.
10:15
Speaker 2: Do you think you should consider legal action here?
10:17
Speaker 3: To be labeled a racist so blatantly by a publication,
10:23
Speaker 3: it goes beyond just the sort of criticism politicians expect
10:27
Speaker 3: to get.
10:27
Speaker 2: From the media.
10:31
Speaker 8: Well, Rita, I've been a barrister for over twenty years
10:35
Speaker 8: and my first advice to anybody that is considering legal
10:38
Speaker 8: action is don't No one wins when you go down
10:42
Speaker 8: that route.
10:44
Speaker 9: It becomes a win for lawyers and lawyers only.
10:48
Speaker 8: So you know, if Peter was to ask me my views,
10:50
Speaker 8: I'd say no, But of course it's a matter for Peter.
10:53
Speaker 9: But you know, this is not the first time we've
10:55
Speaker 9: heard Peter labeled as that.
10:58
Speaker 8: We heard the Member Orringa in the Parliament recently. Yes,
11:02
Speaker 8: this is someone who has stood on a platform of
11:06
Speaker 8: integrity and you know when someone is really struggling politically
11:10
Speaker 8: when they pull a racist card.
11:13
Speaker 3: Absolutely, and that was quite a bizarre performance from Zali
11:17
Speaker 3: Steel because she withdrew the comment in parliament, then came
11:20
Speaker 3: on Sky News and repeated it. Now let's move along
11:23
Speaker 3: to the federal government. Planning to introduce a social media
11:27
Speaker 3: band for children nationwide within the next twelve months. The
11:31
Speaker 3: age limit has not yet been determined. The Prime ministers
11:35
Speaker 3: following South Australia's lead here they are proposing a band
11:39
Speaker 3: for those aged thirteen and under. But Andrew, how will
11:44
Speaker 3: this be in force? How will this age verification work?
11:47
Speaker 3: It doesn't work on porn sites, haws are going to
11:51
Speaker 3: work with social media sites?
11:55
Speaker 9: Well read, let me correct you on something there.
11:59
Speaker 8: Anthony Alberizi has been dragged, kicking and screaming on his
12:03
Speaker 8: ultimate position in relation to social media bands. In June
12:08
Speaker 8: of this year, Peter Dutton came out very strongly and
12:12
Speaker 8: said that a Dutton elected government would ensure that we
12:15
Speaker 8: had a minimum of sixteen years of age for social
12:19
Speaker 8: media and we would do that in the first hundred days. Now,
12:22
Speaker 8: it's really interesting that Peter Melanowskis came out yesterday and
12:26
Speaker 8: gave a watered down version of that. But what it
12:28
Speaker 8: did it made Anthony Albaneasy look absolutely impotent because he
12:34
Speaker 8: was the one that stood up the Select Committee on
12:37
Speaker 8: which I'm on, which is examining this very issue. So
12:41
Speaker 8: we are still processing and having evidence.
12:45
Speaker 9: Before us and because Peter Melanowskis came out and said
12:48
Speaker 9: what he said.
12:49
Speaker 8: Yesterday, Elbows jumped out in a half baked measure, felt
12:55
Speaker 8: that he really needed to make a stand on this.
12:58
Speaker 8: But he's still he's still can't say what age group
13:02
Speaker 8: this will apply to. Well, you know, the Coalition has
13:05
Speaker 8: been very strong on this. Peter Dutton has led the
13:07
Speaker 8: way on this from as early as June this year,
13:10
Speaker 8: saying that we would mandate a minimum age of sixteen.
13:14
Speaker 8: What parents are telling me is that they need that
13:19
Speaker 8: legal protection because you know, you know, I don't know
13:22
Speaker 8: if you're a parent, reader, but certainly I've had four
13:25
Speaker 8: daughters and kids will always use the oh you know,
13:29
Speaker 8: Mary's mum and dad let her. Why won't you let
13:31
Speaker 8: me line We've all experienced as.
13:33
Speaker 2: There's always the peer pressure. Andrew Willis, thanks for.
13:36
Speaker 9: Your time, Thanks reader.
13:38
Speaker 3: Joining me now is commentator and best selling author Douglas
13:42
Speaker 3: Murray Douglas. The first and only debate between Kamala Harris
13:46
Speaker 3: and Donald Trump is just hours away.
13:49
Speaker 2: The VEEPS team.
13:49
Speaker 3: Has been desperately trying to change the agree to debate rules.
13:53
Speaker 3: If you were advising the Vice president, how would you
13:56
Speaker 3: tell her to approach this clash.
14:02
Speaker 5: Well, I mean, she's got several problems on her hands,
14:04
Speaker 5: hasn't she, Because on the one hand, she's got to
14:07
Speaker 5: make sure that she says absolutely nothing, and she's quite
14:12
Speaker 5: good at that. It has to be said, but she
14:15
Speaker 5: has to say absolutely nothing because we know that many
14:20
Speaker 5: of the policies that she would bring in, as Bernie
14:23
Speaker 5: Sanders admitted this week, would be pretty radical and would
14:27
Speaker 5: put off the public. At the same time, there might
14:31
Speaker 5: still be some journalists in America and elsewhere who will
14:33
Speaker 5: notice that she has to say something. I suspect that
14:38
Speaker 5: what she's going to do, and what her advisors will
14:40
Speaker 5: have told her to do, is to try to trap Trump,
14:44
Speaker 5: and they will do that by getting her to do
14:47
Speaker 5: something like the shtick she did in the last debate
14:51
Speaker 5: when she was running for VEEP and against against Donald
14:54
Speaker 5: Trump and Mike Pence. And you remember she kept saying
14:57
Speaker 5: to Mike Pence, I'm speaking, excuse me what I am
15:03
Speaker 5: And it was a very clear attempt to sort of
15:05
Speaker 5: say I'm a woman. I'm also a woman of color.
15:08
Speaker 5: And therefore if you in any way not just interrupt me,
15:12
Speaker 5: but counter me, you're kind of countering a woman of
15:16
Speaker 5: color and you know, steady on there, don't you realize
15:18
Speaker 5: you're not allowed to do that. I don't think she'll
15:21
Speaker 5: use that technique, but I bet they've come up with
15:23
Speaker 5: a new one that's equally irritating and equally designed to
15:28
Speaker 5: effectively trap her opponent.
15:32
Speaker 3: And it will be something that the media absolutely love, and.
15:37
Speaker 2: They'll promote it as a massive win.
15:40
Speaker 3: And yet the rest of the viewing public, not all
15:44
Speaker 3: of them, but many of them will find irritating.
15:47
Speaker 2: Now, what does Trump have to do to get in
15:50
Speaker 2: her head?
15:51
Speaker 3: Should he try to throw her off? Pose questions the
15:55
Speaker 3: debate moderators are not asking, or is it better off
16:00
Speaker 3: just saying as little as possible and letting her talk?
16:03
Speaker 5: Well that it's a very interesting one, this, I mean,
16:06
Speaker 5: everybody sort of has ideas of how to do this,
16:08
Speaker 5: and of course, you know, very few people have actually
16:11
Speaker 5: been on the presidential stage or had a debate with
16:15
Speaker 5: these kinds of stakes. I think that there's it's very
16:19
Speaker 5: interesting watching Trump in recent weeks as he's he's you know,
16:23
Speaker 5: clearly been advised, you know, stick to policy, and as
16:26
Speaker 5: he said at one of the rallies the other the
16:28
Speaker 5: other week, you know, the Democrats have been very very
16:30
Speaker 5: personal against him, and how could he resist getting personal?
16:34
Speaker 5: In response that said, it's an extremely difficult columbrum for him.
16:39
Speaker 5: Getting personal. If she gets personal, and I think she's
16:43
Speaker 5: bound to, getting personal is kind of inevitable. And if
16:48
Speaker 5: he was to, as it were, rise above it, he
16:51
Speaker 5: might well annoy a lot of his base. Who will
16:54
Speaker 5: he will say, you know, we want to see you
16:55
Speaker 5: pummel her effectively. So it's a very very tricky situation
17:00
Speaker 5: he's in. This is why, of course the Democrats have
17:03
Speaker 5: put her forward. Is it's meant to sort of snooker Trump. Nevertheless,
17:08
Speaker 5: there are two very good lines of attack that he
17:10
Speaker 5: could do. One is to actually ask her to get
17:14
Speaker 5: specific on any policy, literally, any policy reata. It could
17:19
Speaker 5: be anything from our education to foreign policy, taxation policy,
17:25
Speaker 5: abtually any key policy, and just get her to give
17:30
Speaker 5: any detail on it, not to say the importance of
17:34
Speaker 5: education is something we must remember and that's why education matters,
17:39
Speaker 5: and let's all think about that for a moment. Don't
17:42
Speaker 5: let her do any of that. Actually ask her some detail.
17:45
Speaker 5: That's the first thing he could do. The second thing
17:47
Speaker 5: he could do is ask her how she squares this
17:51
Speaker 5: circle of this campaign is about fixing America, and yet
17:59
Speaker 5: I'm proud of what Joe Biden and I have accomplished
18:02
Speaker 5: in the last four years. There is a disconnect between
18:05
Speaker 5: those two things. Can he tease out of her what
18:09
Speaker 5: her real thinking is? We'll see.
18:14
Speaker 3: That's a very good point, because not only has she
18:16
Speaker 3: been part of the Biden Harris administration, We've had the
18:19
Speaker 3: Democrats in power twelve of the last sixteen years, so
18:22
Speaker 3: this continuous There's a better way, the change we desperately need. Well,
18:27
Speaker 3: how long do you need to actually implement it? We
18:31
Speaker 3: are getting finally a few policy positions articulated on the
18:36
Speaker 3: official Harris campaign website and Douglas she wants to provide
18:41
Speaker 3: a pathway to citizenship for migrants who have crossed into
18:45
Speaker 3: the border over the border illegally. This is in stark
18:49
Speaker 3: contrast to Donald Trump, whose policy is to enact a
18:52
Speaker 3: massive deportation initiative to get rid of illegal immigrants from
18:57
Speaker 3: the country. How do you think this is going to
18:59
Speaker 3: play at You know, this.
19:02
Speaker 5: Has played out so many times in America in recent decades.
19:06
Speaker 5: When you have a completely porous border, there is always
19:11
Speaker 5: this temptation for people to say, why don't we put
19:14
Speaker 5: a pathway to citizenship for people who are in America already,
19:18
Speaker 5: and instead of having them work in the shadow economy,
19:21
Speaker 5: in the black market and so on, let's bring them in,
19:24
Speaker 5: make them taxpayers, make them citizens, and so on. There's
19:28
Speaker 5: in one way, this is a perfectly reasonable argument. On
19:31
Speaker 5: the other hand, it's absolutely lethal because what it does is,
19:36
Speaker 5: after the millions of people who've already broken into America
19:38
Speaker 5: through the southern border illegally, it simply encourages more to come.
19:42
Speaker 5: Why because it says, you know, you've just got to
19:45
Speaker 5: get in, you'll get everything that you need, and you
19:49
Speaker 5: will eventually be actually a citizen. In other words, the
19:53
Speaker 5: crime of breaking into the country illegally will effectively not
19:58
Speaker 5: be judged to be a crime, won't be any punishment
20:01
Speaker 5: for it. The problem about this is, and it's the
20:03
Speaker 5: same problem with America that Europe has been going through.
20:06
Speaker 5: Its the same problem Britain's going through. It's the same
20:08
Speaker 5: problem that Australia has been challenged by in the past.
20:10
Speaker 5: As you know, although Australia has been one of the
20:12
Speaker 5: relatively same countries on this, the problem with it is
20:16
Speaker 5: not the people who have already come. It's the millions
20:20
Speaker 5: upon millions of people who would like to come and
20:24
Speaker 5: who the minute that you make that pathway from being
20:28
Speaker 5: an illegal, who breaks in being a citizen, and the
20:31
Speaker 5: minute you make that pathway that easy, it's just millions
20:35
Speaker 5: upon millions of people who will want to follow in
20:38
Speaker 5: the footsteps of those people. So it's always there, This idea,
20:42
Speaker 5: the pathway to systemship is always there as a temptation
20:44
Speaker 5: for politicians, but they leave for their successes a bigger
20:49
Speaker 5: and bigger nightmare.
20:52
Speaker 3: Absolutely, you're just creating more poor factors. You're putting more
20:56
Speaker 3: sugar on the table, as they say. And I do
20:59
Speaker 3: wonder whether Democrats would be so keen on this path
21:02
Speaker 3: to citizenship if they weren't counting on these new citizens
21:06
Speaker 3: voting for them. Perhaps they're are miscalculating there, but I
21:11
Speaker 3: think in the past they've been fairly safe in thinking
21:14
Speaker 3: these new migrants who've been effectively awarded for crossing the
21:19
Speaker 3: border illegally will support us with their vote.
21:23
Speaker 2: Now, illegal immigrants are causing all.
21:25
Speaker 3: Sorts of serious issues for people across many towns in
21:28
Speaker 3: the US. It's not just those border towns anymore. We've
21:31
Speaker 3: had a armed Venezuelan gangs taking over apartment buildings in
21:35
Speaker 3: Colorado to thousands of immigrants from Haiti being placed in
21:41
Speaker 3: a little town called Springfield, Ohio. This is a town
21:44
Speaker 3: with a population of less than sixty thousand Douglas, and
21:47
Speaker 3: the mayor there says they've been overwhelmed by fourteen to
21:51
Speaker 3: twenty thousand migrants that have been brought in by authorities.
21:55
Speaker 2: The locals have had enough.
21:57
Speaker 10: I really challenge you guys to get out here, do something.
22:00
Speaker 10: These Pasians are running into trash cans, they're running into buildings,
22:05
Speaker 10: they're running into if looking cars in the middle of
22:09
Speaker 10: the street.
22:12
Speaker 2: Douglas.
22:13
Speaker 3: The locals there are not getting to the services they
22:16
Speaker 3: need because they're being overwhelmed by these new.
22:19
Speaker 2: Migrants that have arrived. And when you think about the.
22:22
Speaker 3: Numbers, a town of less than sixty thousand to suddenly
22:25
Speaker 3: have anywhere between fourteen and twenty thousand new people placed
22:30
Speaker 3: in it, and you can understand why they're overwhelmed.
22:34
Speaker 5: I mean, I've seen this so many times in so
22:36
Speaker 5: many other Western countries Rita. It's exactly the sort of
22:40
Speaker 5: thing that happened in Sweden since twenty fifteen. It's exactly
22:43
Speaker 5: the same thing that's happened in towns in Germany and elsewhere,
22:47
Speaker 5: and it's always the same story, is that the locals
22:50
Speaker 5: say we can't put up with this, and central or
22:55
Speaker 5: local government says, tough luck, you're going to have to.
23:00
Speaker 5: And I think this is profoundly im moral on the
23:03
Speaker 5: part of politicians. I think it's a wicked thing to do.
23:07
Speaker 5: The first duty of politicians is to look after the
23:11
Speaker 5: interests of the people who put them in power, the voters.
23:15
Speaker 5: It's not to make sure that everyone in Venezuela who
23:19
Speaker 5: wants to flee and break into a condo flat gets
23:25
Speaker 5: the right to do so. And I think it's an
23:27
Speaker 5: unbelievable offering up a responsibility, abdication of responsibility by politicians,
23:36
Speaker 5: And as I said earlier, they leave a much bigger
23:40
Speaker 5: mess for the people coming after them.
23:44
Speaker 2: Absolutely. Now let's move to the UK.
23:46
Speaker 3: The BBC's israel Her mass coverage is said to breach
23:51
Speaker 3: the broadcaster's own editorial guidelines over fifteen hundred times. This
23:55
Speaker 3: is according to a new report compiled by a team
23:58
Speaker 3: of lawyers and data scientists Douglas.
24:01
Speaker 2: They analyze some nine million.
24:03
Speaker 3: Words of coverage across several languages and different platforms. The
24:09
Speaker 3: question has to be asked, why does the BBC have
24:12
Speaker 3: this deeply worrying pattern of bias, bias against Israel.
24:19
Speaker 5: It always has done. I'm slightly surprised that they've been
24:22
Speaker 5: found to have only fifteen hundred breaches of their own
24:25
Speaker 5: guidelines in recent I had put the figure rather higher
24:28
Speaker 5: than that. There was a report some years ago into
24:32
Speaker 5: the BBC's anti as well bias inside the BBC, and
24:35
Speaker 5: the report was never released, and I suspect, as many
24:39
Speaker 5: other people do, that it's because it came to the
24:41
Speaker 5: same conclusions that this report has come to. You can
24:44
Speaker 5: absolutely smell it in broadcasting house. There's a straightforward editorial
24:49
Speaker 5: lie on the Israel issue, which is that the BBC
24:54
Speaker 5: believes that Israel always is in the wrong and can
24:57
Speaker 5: do no right, and it's coverage is grossly unfair. It
25:03
Speaker 5: has been for years, and I think this is something
25:07
Speaker 5: that should be should be addressed. I mean, you see
25:09
Speaker 5: it in headline after headline, day after day. The BBC
25:14
Speaker 5: will report things from effectively the angle of Hamaz. It
25:18
Speaker 5: happened recently with the issue of the four hostages who
25:25
Speaker 5: were killed in captivity. The way in which the BBC
25:29
Speaker 5: reported this it was as if the Israelis have killed
25:33
Speaker 5: the Israeli hostages. It was as if he is Raeli
25:36
Speaker 5: Prime ministered the Israeli hostages. The whole onus of the
25:40
Speaker 5: coverage was as if there was an Israeli mistake or
25:45
Speaker 5: error or Israelian transigence that had caused it. And the
25:51
Speaker 5: coverage did not acknowledge the fact that in most civilized
25:55
Speaker 5: media entities, as well as societies, it is deemed to
25:58
Speaker 5: be wrong to break into some somebody else's country, break
26:01
Speaker 5: into their house, fill their citizens, and internap them, then
26:05
Speaker 5: hold them in tunnels for almost a year and then
26:07
Speaker 5: shoot them in the head. Most people would regard that
26:10
Speaker 5: as being on the people who did it. Oh not
26:13
Speaker 5: the BBC, because you can always find Jeremy Bowen or
26:17
Speaker 5: another of their correspondents always taking the side always of
26:22
Speaker 5: just anyone who's anti Israel. It's an endemic bias in
26:26
Speaker 5: the BBC, completely sick. And of course they're welcome to
26:30
Speaker 5: do that. If they want to just be a pro
26:33
Speaker 5: Hamas anti Israel channel, they can do that. But there's
26:36
Speaker 5: a caveat with them, which is that they're not in
26:38
Speaker 5: the free market, and on this exchange of free ideas
26:41
Speaker 5: they're paid for by the license pairs, by the taxpayers
26:45
Speaker 5: in the UK. So that's why this matters. It's not
26:48
Speaker 5: like The Guardian, the guy I think can do what
26:49
Speaker 5: it wants. This is the national broadcaster, and so I
26:53
Speaker 5: think that a better standard should be expected of them,
26:56
Speaker 5: and indeed demanded.
27:00
Speaker 2: Now, before you.
27:00
Speaker 3: Go, Princess Kate has just in recent hours released a
27:04
Speaker 3: video announcing she has completed her chemo therapy treatment.
27:10
Speaker 11: To finally completed my chemotherapy treatment. The last nine months
27:15
Speaker 11: have been incredibly tough for us as a family. Life.
27:19
Speaker 11: As you know, it can change in an instant and
27:22
Speaker 11: we've had to find a way to navigate the stormy
27:24
Speaker 11: waters and road unknown.
27:27
Speaker 2: Douglas.
27:28
Speaker 3: She also speaks about looking forward to being back at
27:31
Speaker 3: work and undertaking public engagements. It's a beautifully shot video,
27:35
Speaker 3: i've got to say, has.
27:36
Speaker 2: Astonished Royal watches. I love it.
27:40
Speaker 3: I think we should be have more communication like this.
27:44
Speaker 3: There was so much secrecy around her treatment and she's
27:48
Speaker 3: now coming out and sharing it all with the world.
27:52
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's the first time I've seen it. It's a
27:55
Speaker 5: fake glossy but look it's a happy story at a
27:58
Speaker 5: time when happy stories, and you know, she's been remarkable
28:04
Speaker 5: figure in public life ever since she first entered public life.
28:08
Speaker 5: Unlike some people we could think of, she's been extraordinarily
28:12
Speaker 5: devoted in her work and you know, I hope that
28:17
Speaker 5: her return to public life. I think it will be seen,
28:19
Speaker 5: it will be welcomed enormously warmly by the British public
28:22
Speaker 5: and others. She's never put a foot wrong since since she,
28:26
Speaker 5: you know, became a public figure in one of the
28:29
Speaker 5: toughest jobs in the world in a way, because you know,
28:33
Speaker 5: if she's in one of those visions where if you've
28:35
Speaker 5: scowled once, you'd get a lifelong reputation for being a
28:39
Speaker 5: grum And so it's wonderful that she'll be back. The
28:44
Speaker 5: royal family has got rather too few working members at
28:46
Speaker 5: the moment, so having one of the absolute alist royals
28:50
Speaker 5: back is good news.
28:54
Speaker 3: And she's showing such enormous grist because the couple you
28:58
Speaker 3: haven't mentioned, Harry Meghan. I've poured all sorts of vitriol
29:02
Speaker 3: her way and her husband's way. She knows she can't respond.
29:06
Speaker 3: She just has to keep a dignified silence, which must
29:10
Speaker 3: be enormously difficult. But she's done it. She's done her duty.
29:13
Speaker 3: And we thank her for it. Douglas Murray, thank you
29:16
Speaker 3: for your time this evening. Thank you still to come
29:21
Speaker 3: an extended edition of Lefties Losing It. You're welcome, welcome back.
29:34
Speaker 3: Now it's time for Lefties Losing It, and I have
29:38
Speaker 3: for you here a.
29:39
Speaker 2: Uniquely annoying Lefty.
29:41
Speaker 3: Losing It about a family having a private conversation about
29:45
Speaker 3: folks confused about their gender.
29:47
Speaker 4: Hi, Harriett, have you ever beIN p to b headcrimed?
29:49
Speaker 5: Well?
29:50
Speaker 2: I have, so let me tell you about it.
29:51
Speaker 4: Okay, so yesterday I was at work serving this family
29:54
Speaker 4: that were sitting there like the three raised men, and
29:56
Speaker 4: then all of a sudden, out of the mom's mouth,
29:58
Speaker 4: I hear the trigger was none binary and gender fluid
30:01
Speaker 4: and quote as in session and my ears are turned on.
30:04
Speaker 5: Let's do this.
30:05
Speaker 4: So basically, the mom was trying to explain to the
30:07
Speaker 4: dad what it meant to be non binary or gender fluid.
30:11
Speaker 4: After a few minutes go by, the dad responds in
30:13
Speaker 4: the same way that every guy that looks like him
30:16
Speaker 4: would and says, you know, I understand where they're coming from,
30:19
Speaker 4: but if you're biologically a male or female, that's what
30:22
Speaker 4: you are. And then I'm standing there on display.
30:30
Speaker 3: Just exhausting, draining, draining. Now, let's hear from a Democrat congresswoman,
30:37
Speaker 3: Magazine Waters, who claims Republicans and those upset with a
30:41
Speaker 3: number of immigrants from Haiti being deposited into their small towns.
30:45
Speaker 2: Well they just racist. There could be no other explanation.
30:49
Speaker 12: Well, let me just say this that Haitians have been
30:53
Speaker 12: the victims of you know, not only our country but
30:57
Speaker 12: Canada and France. For you is historically they're black, they're poor.
31:03
Speaker 12: It supports country in the hemisphere. They have been exploited
31:07
Speaker 12: and it continues all the time. Yes, I think they're
31:11
Speaker 12: treated differently because they're black, because they're Haitians.
31:15
Speaker 3: But here is a local in Springfield, Ohio who doesn't
31:19
Speaker 3: really see it that way, and he doesn't exactly fit
31:22
Speaker 3: Maxine Waters white supremacists race beating talk.
31:26
Speaker 2: Let's hear from him.
31:27
Speaker 10: I think it's like kind of odd that like a
31:29
Speaker 10: guy like me has to come out from doing what
31:31
Speaker 10: I do on a daily basis to have fun because
31:33
Speaker 10: I see what's going on in these streets and I
31:35
Speaker 10: see you guys are sitting up there in them comfy
31:36
Speaker 10: chairs and suits like and I'm getting out here every
31:39
Speaker 10: day and I'm broadcasting this and you guys are just
31:42
Speaker 10: sitting up there and suits or something like, I really
31:44
Speaker 10: challenge you guys to get out here and do something.
31:46
Speaker 10: These Haitians are running into trash cans, they're running into buildings,
31:51
Speaker 10: they're running into they flipping cars in the middle of
31:55
Speaker 10: the street. And I don't know how like y'all can
31:58
Speaker 10: be comfortable with this, Like I don't know like who's
32:01
Speaker 10: getting paid from it. I feel like I honestly feel
32:04
Speaker 10: like someone's.
32:04
Speaker 9: Getting paid from it.
32:05
Speaker 10: In the background, they dropping that you got a bunch
32:10
Speaker 10: of people on a bus getting dropped off at a
32:11
Speaker 10: gas station to come down here. I know a single
32:14
Speaker 10: mom that FaceTime met tonight, FaceTime me this morning at
32:17
Speaker 10: the welfare office that really need like that really needs something,
32:20
Speaker 10: and it's nothing but immigrants over there.
32:24
Speaker 3: And here is Kamala Harris taking credit for giving temporary
32:28
Speaker 3: protection status to over one hundred thousand migrants from Haiti.
32:32
Speaker 7: That is why also, starting with our administration, we gave
32:37
Speaker 7: TPS temporary protected status to Haitian migrants fifty five thousand,
32:42
Speaker 7: and then more recently we extended temporary protected status to
32:46
Speaker 7: over one hundred thousand Haitian migrants for that very reason
32:50
Speaker 7: that they need support, they need protection.
32:52
Speaker 3: Now the Mail Online is reporting that Kamala Harris is
32:56
Speaker 3: prepping for the debate by practicing with Ai in an
33:00
Speaker 3: orange wig. No reports yet whether it's this guy.
33:06
Speaker 13: Ladies and gentlemen, the real president of the United States.
33:10
Speaker 14: Me what an unbelievable experience it is, What a great
33:15
Speaker 14: show this could be. Instead, we've got an absolute idiot
33:19
Speaker 14: here running the show.
33:21
Speaker 3: That's, of course, the great Shane Gilles, whose Trump is
33:24
Speaker 3: the best in the business, and he stayed in character
33:27
Speaker 3: there for two hours for that Kiltny episode.
33:30
Speaker 2: Look it up, thank me later. Most of it is
33:33
Speaker 2: too blue for a.
33:34
Speaker 3: Family show like this. Now to a lefty teacher losing it.
33:38
Speaker 3: This dude with the proud trans teacher shirt teaches in
33:42
Speaker 3: Rhode Island, and watch this totally sane and rational behavior
33:46
Speaker 3: as he destroys a Trump sign.
33:54
Speaker 7: Yes, my name is.
33:55
Speaker 15: Handy Grinder and I'm working at the one store on floor.
34:00
Speaker 2: You're threatening my life.
34:01
Speaker 5: He's trying to job you, so we're trying to hit it.
34:03
Speaker 5: He's trying to pair my signs.
34:04
Speaker 3: Yet, and here is that same teacher claiming he is
34:09
Speaker 3: off on sickly due to injuries caused by transphobia in
34:14
Speaker 3: the classroom.
34:15
Speaker 15: School teacher, and I'm currently out on sickly owing to
34:22
Speaker 15: injury in performance of job related tasks in the workplace
34:31
Speaker 15: caused by classroom transphobia and homophobia owing to my own
34:37
Speaker 15: beliefs and opposition to the school to prison pipeline. This
34:43
Speaker 15: is a complicated situation, particularly because it is directly related
34:48
Speaker 15: to my gender identity and sexuality and homophobia in the classroom.
34:53
Speaker 2: Good luck kids.
34:54
Speaker 3: Now we've seen the gold Staff family is ignored by
34:57
Speaker 3: Biden and Kamala Harris. We' seeing them attacked by the
35:01
Speaker 3: ugliest segments of the media.
35:03
Speaker 2: And social media too.
35:05
Speaker 3: Yes, some left is losing it are laying the boots
35:08
Speaker 3: into gold Star families.
35:11
Speaker 16: I am angry at the gold Star families who invited
35:16
Speaker 16: Trump to Arlington because they decided, in their adoration for
35:21
Speaker 16: Trump that it was okay to let Trump his campaign
35:27
Speaker 16: staff and his campaign team's.
35:30
Speaker 2: Videographer and photographer.
35:33
Speaker 16: On top of all of the aids and security, they
35:38
Speaker 16: invited them to Arlington to traps over other people's children's graves.
35:45
Speaker 2: Just gross and unhinged.
35:48
Speaker 3: Now, we always enjoy watching Bill Maher being schooled by
35:51
Speaker 3: his own guests. And that's precisely what the editor in
35:54
Speaker 3: chief of National Review did, Rich Lowry, watch.
35:58
Speaker 1: This to get rid of him, because if he lost
36:02
Speaker 1: another election, that would be twenty eighteen, twenty twenty, twenty
36:06
Speaker 1: twenty two, twenty twenty four. I would think, and I've
36:10
Speaker 1: certainly been the last one to say Trump's over now,
36:13
Speaker 1: lots of people do. I was like, no, no, no,
36:16
Speaker 1: But I think this would be it for him. I
36:17
Speaker 1: think he'd still be He's not like Joe Biden. He's
36:20
Speaker 1: not going to go peacefully and out to pasture. But
36:25
Speaker 1: Republicans will have had enough of Trump. Not of Trump
36:28
Speaker 1: isn't and it can you be done with all that?
36:32
Speaker 17: You can't be certain of that bill. The one thing
36:34
Speaker 17: that's certainly if you lose is Kama Harrison President of
36:37
Speaker 17: the United States. And I wholly oppose almost every single
36:39
Speaker 17: one of her positions. I think she's a vacuates one opportunist.
36:43
Speaker 17: I totally reject the idea that in the space of
36:45
Speaker 17: forty eight hours she went from a subpar vice president
36:48
Speaker 17: everyone recognized as such all of a sudden of the
36:50
Speaker 17: second coming of Barack Obama.
36:52
Speaker 3: It is preposterous and the lessons did not end their
36:55
Speaker 3: what yere is Larry and Hayshaw McMaster school, MA Democrat
37:00
Speaker 3: John Avlon and the lefty audience.
37:03
Speaker 18: We've got one guy saying we should we should pull
37:06
Speaker 18: out of NATO, right, we should not.
37:07
Speaker 9: Donald Putin could do whatever.
37:08
Speaker 18: The Holly wants, basically giving a yellow light to China
37:11
Speaker 18: on Taiwan. I mean, you know, the autocratic alliance you
37:15
Speaker 18: warn about is in many cases rooting rooting for Donald
37:19
Speaker 18: Trump because they think it leads to American division and decline.
37:21
Speaker 18: But the fact is is that right now for strong
37:24
Speaker 18: on national security, one party party's leader seems to be
37:27
Speaker 18: trying to weaken NATO, and the other party has has
37:29
Speaker 18: expanded it in strengthen except.
37:31
Speaker 17: He supposedly forced by Trump to do it. Withdrawal totally dishonorable,
37:37
Speaker 17: bad disgrace. His presidency has not recovered from it since,
37:40
Speaker 17: and our position abroad hasn't you control it?
37:42
Speaker 19: Direct line from that disastrous, humiliating withdrawal to the reinvasion
37:47
Speaker 19: of Ukraine in February of twenty twenty two. I mean,
37:49
Speaker 19: I think what's weakness is the what is provocative is
37:54
Speaker 19: the perception of weakness.
37:56
Speaker 3: Now, let's end left is losing it with comic Andy
38:00
Speaker 3: Hayes talking about why it's so much harder.
38:03
Speaker 2: To live life as a lefty. This is actually pretty fun.
38:07
Speaker 13: I am a liberal. I don't like it. It's not fun.
38:10
Speaker 13: We all know that it's not fun. It's a full
38:12
Speaker 13: time job. Conservatives, that must be so easy. You're not
38:14
Speaker 13: learning any pronouns. You're leaving your air conditioning on, You're
38:19
Speaker 13: throwing all your garbage in one hole. I'm out of here.
38:23
Speaker 13: I'm like, did the composts go out? Is the compost out?
38:26
Speaker 9: How are the refugees? Are the refugees all right?
38:30
Speaker 13: What's the air quality index today? I remember last year
38:35
Speaker 13: in New York January fifteenth, it was seventy five degrees
38:39
Speaker 13: and all of us New Yorkers, all of us liberal
38:41
Speaker 13: New Yorkers, we had to go outside and pretend that
38:43
Speaker 13: was bad. We had to go out in a beautiful
38:47
Speaker 13: January day and be like this sucks, right, climate change?
38:53
Speaker 13: I'm in a T shirt.
38:55
Speaker 2: This is awful.
38:57
Speaker 3: Still to come, plenty more lefties losing it, content with
39:00
Speaker 3: the brilliant Josh Hammer.
39:11
Speaker 2: Welcome back.
39:12
Speaker 3: The one and only debate between Donald Trump and Kamala
39:15
Speaker 3: Harris is on tomorrow, and let's take a quick look
39:18
Speaker 3: at the ABC moderators. David Muir and Lindsey Davis are
39:23
Speaker 3: hardly impartial. Here is just a little taste of their
39:27
Speaker 3: anti Trump bias. These are comments from less than a
39:31
Speaker 3: month ago from Davis linking Trump to a white supremacist cause.
39:37
Speaker 20: Former President Donald Trump is expected to go campaign and
39:40
Speaker 20: Howard Michigan tomorrow. Many people are aware of that a
39:44
Speaker 20: month ago in Howell KKK Peltester's marchmist roots with the
39:49
Speaker 20: white robes on and suggested that they support Donald Trump.
39:54
Speaker 20: I'm curious if if you make anything about that connection
39:57
Speaker 20: in his going in particular to howld tomorrow.
40:00
Speaker 3: Joining me now is Newsweek Senior editor at Large and
40:03
Speaker 3: Article three Project Senior Council Josh Hamma. Josh, that was
40:07
Speaker 3: a bizarre question from an ABC anchor. Well, Tomorrow's debate
40:12
Speaker 3: BA level playing.
40:13
Speaker 21: Field, Probably not, if I had to guess, I mean.
40:18
Speaker 21: ABC News, of course, would be the same American media
40:20
Speaker 21: outlet that hires George Stephanopolis to anchor its Sunday news show.
40:25
Speaker 21: That people will probably recall that George Stefanopolis was one
40:28
Speaker 21: of the pre eminent Clinton campaign staffers, along with Jimmy
40:31
Speaker 21: Carvill back in nineteen ninety two. I mean, he is
40:33
Speaker 21: about as partisan a Democrat as it gets in all
40:36
Speaker 21: of the mainstream corporate media. This is not an objective
40:39
Speaker 21: outlet at all. Actually read a if I think back,
40:42
Speaker 21: it was on the precipice of the twenty twenty presidential election.
40:45
Speaker 21: Wisconsin has become one of America's foremost swing states. It
40:48
Speaker 21: was an ABC News poll just a handful of days
40:52
Speaker 21: prior to the twenty twenty election that showed back then
40:54
Speaker 21: that Joe Biden was allegedly up by seventeen points on
40:58
Speaker 21: Donald Trump and Wisconsin the final mark and a victory
41:00
Speaker 21: and ended up being less than one point. So, I mean,
41:03
Speaker 21: there's definitely something in the water at ABC News. Fortunately
41:07
Speaker 21: for Donald Trump, you know, if he plays his cards right,
41:10
Speaker 21: it doesn't really matter. I think how the moderators approach this.
41:13
Speaker 21: So the moderator is Kamala Harris Rita. They're going to
41:16
Speaker 21: do everything they can to steer the conversation to two topics.
41:19
Speaker 21: In particular, they're gonna do everything they can to steer
41:22
Speaker 21: the conversation to so called our democracy because they painted
41:26
Speaker 21: Donald Trump out to be a historical threat to the
41:28
Speaker 21: Constitution and all that we stand for. The near assassination
41:31
Speaker 21: of him a month and a half ago has not
41:32
Speaker 21: slowed them down at all. They have that issue, and
41:35
Speaker 21: then they have the abortion issue. If Donald Trump can
41:37
Speaker 21: quickly respond to those two and then pivot to all
41:40
Speaker 21: the other issues, namely immigration, the economy, inflation, and crime,
41:44
Speaker 21: those are really the four issues right now. Those are
41:46
Speaker 21: the four issues that the American people tell pulsters they
41:49
Speaker 21: care most about. And Donald Trump is more trusted on
41:52
Speaker 21: each of those four issues. So if he can quickly pivot,
41:54
Speaker 21: so for example, on the question of our democracy, which
41:57
Speaker 21: I'm sure is going to compet some point, all he
41:59
Speaker 21: has to do. He's looking to the camera and very
42:02
Speaker 21: straightforward and clearly say there is one person on this
42:05
Speaker 21: steege whose Department of Justice is trying to incarsrate the opposition,
42:08
Speaker 21: and guess what, it's not me, and then immediately pivot
42:11
Speaker 21: to the economy, immigration, and so forth. If he can
42:13
Speaker 21: do that, he's going to be in great shape.
42:15
Speaker 4: I think.
42:17
Speaker 2: I think so.
42:18
Speaker 3: And I think he also has to just resist talking,
42:21
Speaker 3: because the more Kamala talks, the more trouble she gets
42:24
Speaker 3: herself into. And I think that will be difficult for
42:26
Speaker 3: Donald Trump, but if he can restrain himself, it would
42:30
Speaker 3: be fantastic. The Mail Online is revealing that Kamala Harris
42:35
Speaker 3: is prepping for this debate by practicing against an AID.
42:39
Speaker 2: In an Orange wig.
42:42
Speaker 3: No reports yet whether it's this guy my favorite Trump impersonator.
42:47
Speaker 3: What do you think about this? Is this a sign
42:51
Speaker 3: that she's taking it deadly seriously or a sign that
42:55
Speaker 3: a campaign isn't really run by adults?
42:59
Speaker 21: Well, Damala Harris is in serious trouble. I mean Nate Silver,
43:03
Speaker 21: who runs five thirty eight and he's probably America's foremost
43:06
Speaker 21: political odds horse race prognosticare essentially the best statistical analyst
43:11
Speaker 21: we have here now. Now, he himself is a is
43:13
Speaker 21: a liberal leaning guy. I mean he calls it roughly straight.
43:17
Speaker 21: But no one doubts that Nate Silver is a liberal.
43:19
Speaker 2: You know.
43:20
Speaker 21: His model actually just a few hours ago actually changed
43:23
Speaker 21: to Donald Trump having about a sixty five to sixty
43:26
Speaker 21: six percent chance of winning the election. In fact, according
43:28
Speaker 21: to Nate Silver's current model, Donald Trump is favored in
43:31
Speaker 21: literally every single swing state right now, Nevada, Arizona, Georgia,
43:36
Speaker 21: North Carolina, and all three of the big Rust Belt
43:38
Speaker 21: states of Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania, especially Pennsylvania, which is
43:42
Speaker 21: the largest electoral college prize of them all of all
43:45
Speaker 21: the Swings states. So Donald Trump is actually in very
43:47
Speaker 21: good shape right now. And you know, there were a
43:49
Speaker 21: lot of people Rita who after they pulled the bloodless
43:52
Speaker 21: cup of Joe Biden and inserted the cackling communists from California,
43:56
Speaker 21: Kamala Harris in Joe Biden's stead, there are a lot
43:59
Speaker 21: of people people who started freaking out. Yes, the polls
44:02
Speaker 21: tied in there. You know, I have to say, I
44:03
Speaker 21: don't want to pat myself in the back too hard,
44:05
Speaker 21: but I was not one of them, because, as you
44:07
Speaker 21: just said, the more people that actually listen to and
44:10
Speaker 21: hear Kamala Harris talk, it's like an immediate repulsion. I mean,
44:14
Speaker 21: it's like oil on water. The woman is just not
44:17
Speaker 21: likable and she's I've obviously been profoundly terrible as an
44:21
Speaker 21: actual leader. You know, she's been vice president of one
44:23
Speaker 21: of the worst administrations in the entire history of the Republic.
44:27
Speaker 21: Her presidential campaign twenty twenty bout out well before the
44:29
Speaker 21: first votes were've been cast in Iowa. I could go
44:31
Speaker 21: on here, but she's in big trouble, and what that
44:34
Speaker 21: means in concrete, tangible terms is that she has a
44:37
Speaker 21: lot on the line in this debate. So I'm not
44:40
Speaker 21: surprised that that she's pulling out all these gimmicks, these stunts,
44:42
Speaker 21: the orange haired wig or whatever they're because the stakes
44:45
Speaker 21: are really really high for her, I would argue even
44:47
Speaker 21: higher than for Donald Trump himself.
44:51
Speaker 3: I agree with you there. I think the polls. Trump
44:55
Speaker 3: always performs that poorly in polls compared.
44:58
Speaker 2: To where is support really.
45:00
Speaker 3: If if they're saying he's leading by three, he can
45:03
Speaker 3: be sure he's probably leading by eight or nine. Now,
45:05
Speaker 3: that's always been the experience with his numbers, including in
45:09
Speaker 3: twenty twenty. Now there's reports that Kamala Harris is looking
45:13
Speaker 3: to name hard left Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison as
45:17
Speaker 3: the US's top copper. Campaign team has reportedly told Arab
45:22
Speaker 3: American leaders in Detroit that she could name Ellison, the
45:27
Speaker 3: special prosecutor and the George Floyd case, as attorney general
45:31
Speaker 3: as part of her administration. Trump officials told Fox News
45:36
Speaker 3: Keith Ellison would be a natural fit in a Kamala
45:38
Speaker 3: Harris administration.
45:39
Speaker 2: Both are radical.
45:40
Speaker 3: Liberals who support ending cash bail and releasing violent criminals
45:45
Speaker 3: into American neighborhoods. Do we take these reports seriously?
45:48
Speaker 8: Josh?
45:49
Speaker 3: And she's already selected Tim Walls as her running mate.
45:53
Speaker 3: How much more radically left can her administration be.
45:58
Speaker 9: Read?
45:58
Speaker 21: I think you might be surprised, and God forbid, I
46:00
Speaker 21: think that I am my fellow Americans might be surprised.
46:03
Speaker 21: Comes January twenty twenty five, if God forbid this ticket
46:06
Speaker 21: actually prevails here. You know, Keith Ellison is not just
46:10
Speaker 21: a radical when it comes to so called criminal justice reform,
46:14
Speaker 21: when it comes to ending cash bail, when it comes
46:16
Speaker 21: to jailbreak, when it comes to all these other post
46:18
Speaker 21: George Floyd, post racial reckoning left wing agendas. You know,
46:22
Speaker 21: the man is also fundamentally an Islamist. I mean he
46:25
Speaker 21: is as cozy and close with care of the Council
46:28
Speaker 21: and American Islamic relations as it gets care by the way,
46:31
Speaker 21: it is recognized by by no less Muslim country as
46:34
Speaker 21: the United Arab Emirates as a terrorist organization in Saudi Arabia,
46:38
Speaker 21: if I'm not mistaken, has taken similar steps as well. Unfortunately,
46:41
Speaker 21: much of the Democratic Party's elite class, their brass has
46:45
Speaker 21: not gotten the memo. Keith Ellison is about as pro
46:48
Speaker 21: care as it gets there. He's there in Minnesota, so
46:50
Speaker 21: is Tim Wallas. That's illano Omar's backyard there. So this
46:53
Speaker 21: is something I think of possibly a deliberate, a deliberate
46:57
Speaker 21: leak that the Harris Walls campaign has probably done to
46:59
Speaker 21: try to gin up enthusiasm among their far left, rathically
47:02
Speaker 21: progressive pro Hamas base. They probably thought that the Democratic
47:06
Speaker 21: National Convention was actually too even handed when it comes
47:09
Speaker 21: to the Israeli Palestinian issue, if I had to guess. So, therefore,
47:12
Speaker 21: they're trying to kind of throw out some breadcrumbs to
47:14
Speaker 21: the radical base to try to get them excited for November.
47:16
Speaker 21: But no one should make any mistake about this. Keith
47:18
Speaker 21: Ellison would be an abominable, an abominable Attorney General of
47:22
Speaker 21: the United States. He has been a horrific attorney general
47:24
Speaker 21: in Minnesota. By the way, just real quick. One of
47:26
Speaker 21: the other names that I've heard floated in case it's
47:28
Speaker 21: not Keith Ellison for Kamala Harris's attorney general, God forbid
47:32
Speaker 21: is woe by the name of Sally Yates. Sally Yates
47:34
Speaker 21: made a lot of headlines in the first few days
47:37
Speaker 21: of the Trump administray excuse me, yeah, the Trump ministration
47:40
Speaker 21: back in January twenty seventeen, when she immediately instructed her
47:43
Speaker 21: subordinates in the Trump DOJ to not enforce Trump's big
47:47
Speaker 21: Day one immigration order, which the media disingenuously called the
47:50
Speaker 21: so called Muslim Band. So that is another leading contender
47:53
Speaker 21: for attorney general. It gives you an idea of what
47:55
Speaker 21: they're thinking about.
47:58
Speaker 3: It's shocking because we are trying to tell the broader
48:01
Speaker 3: American public, not just those factions that you spoke of,
48:05
Speaker 3: that she is a centrist, she's a moderate, she's a
48:09
Speaker 3: safe pair of hands that you can trust to not
48:12
Speaker 3: bankrupt the country. And yet when you hear about these
48:16
Speaker 3: people she wants to include in her inner sanctum, they
48:20
Speaker 3: are amongst the most radically left destructive forces in American politics.
48:25
Speaker 3: But again, she did have the most liberal voting record
48:30
Speaker 3: of any senator in twenty nineteen. That's her own track record,
48:34
Speaker 3: so we know where she stands ideologically. Josh Hamma, thank
48:38
Speaker 3: you so much for your time this evening.
48:40
Speaker 2: Thank you so much as others, and that's it from me.
48:43
Speaker 2: Up next is Newsnight
