  Speaker 1: Starting right now.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: It's a Twito panahe show.

  Speaker 3: Good evening and welcome to the Rita Panehy Show. Coming
• 0:12
  Speaker 3: up tonight, Anthony Fauci invokes the Fifth Amendment one hundred
• 0:16
  Speaker 3: and eleven times at a Senate hearing. My panel will
• 0:19
  Speaker 3: join me to discuss the day's top headlines. Army Horowitz
• 0:23
  Speaker 3: will have the latest from the US, including his test
• 0:26
  Speaker 3: of just how left or conservative black voters are and
• 0:31
  Speaker 3: WNBA fans filmed berating girls wearing xxxy shirts in support
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: of women's sport. Kin cisco Field will have the latest
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: entertainment and royal news and left He's losing. It is
• 0:45
  Speaker 3: an extravaganza of Fauci's cowardice.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: You did all of that during the pandemic, didn't you.
• 0:53
  Speaker 4: That's a question on the advisive counsel. I respectfully declaim
• 0:57
  Speaker 4: to answer beast upon my rates under the Fifth Amendment
• 1:00
  Speaker 4: to the Constitution.
• 1:02
  Speaker 3: And let's start with Dr Anthony Fauci's astonishing performance at
• 1:06
  Speaker 3: a Senate hearing earlier today. We're invoked the Fifth Amendment
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: one hundred and eleven times. This is despite doctor Fauci
• 1:14
  Speaker 3: receiving a preemptive pardon from Joe Biden. Doctor Fauci was
• 1:19
  Speaker 3: the top us infectious disease official during COVID, and he
• 1:22
  Speaker 3: wielded enormous power, and that influence was not restricted to
• 1:27
  Speaker 3: the US. We felt the effects right here in Australia.
• 1:31
  Speaker 3: Health bureaucrats around the world followed his lead. But unlike
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: Dr Fauci, our bureaucrats don't have the power to plead
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: the fifth and every single health official who pushed lockdowns,
• 1:43
  Speaker 3: who pushed vaccine mandates, curfews, school closures, mask mandates and
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: other oppressive measures, every single one of them should explain
• 1:53
  Speaker 3: how they came to make those decisions. Let's bringing the
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: panel joining me now as IPA chief economists at Crichton
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: and Sky News contributor Caroline d Rosso Adam, do we
• 2:05
  Speaker 3: need a reckoning locally at least some sort of accountability
• 2:10
  Speaker 3: and transparency about how these decisions were made, Were they
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: influenced by politicians and how the bureaucrats came to say
• 2:19
  Speaker 3: things like let's ban phishing.
• 2:21
  Speaker 5: Yeah, look, I think we certainly do and need. The
• 2:23
  Speaker 5: contrast is extraordinary. I mean, the health bureaucrats here were
• 2:25
  Speaker 5: made governors of states and given national awards. They were
• 2:28
  Speaker 5: not subject to these grillings. So the contrast with the
• 2:31
  Speaker 5: US is just extraordinary. I mean, there's been a Royal
• 2:34
  Speaker 5: commission called obviously in Victoria, you know, for the construction sector,
• 2:38
  Speaker 5: but I still think we really need one, you know,
• 2:40
  Speaker 5: for the COVID response. I would love to see that.
• 2:42
  Speaker 5: It's probably not going to happen because it's like it
• 2:43
  Speaker 5: never happened in Australia. No one really talks about it
• 2:45
  Speaker 5: except us on this show, which is credible.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: But because we were.
• 2:49
  Speaker 3: One of the few programs that took a stand against
• 2:53
  Speaker 3: that lunacy, the rest of the media was very much
• 2:56
  Speaker 3: on board, pushing for more restrictions, more lockdowns, greater measures,
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: and anyone who actually made any noise against it. Adam,
• 3:07
  Speaker 3: as you were, remember I did.
• 3:10
  Speaker 5: Look. I just say the thing from the diaries that
• 3:12
  Speaker 5: really annoys me that came out was that he wrote
• 3:14
  Speaker 5: in his diary in February twenty twenty that the infection
• 3:16
  Speaker 5: fatality rate was about point two two point three percent,
• 3:19
  Speaker 5: and then four weeks later he said to Congress it
• 3:21
  Speaker 5: was three percent, which caused global ten times more global panic.
• 3:26
  Speaker 5: That to me is just inexcusable and should be criminal.
• 3:28
  Speaker 3: Everything in that diary A lot of attention has been
• 3:32
  Speaker 3: on the fame obsession he had, about the front pages
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: and the adulation he was getting from celebrities in the media.
• 3:41
  Speaker 3: But what's been lost is the deliberate lies the fatality rate, obviously,
• 3:45
  Speaker 3: but also the origins of the virus. He knew from
• 3:48
  Speaker 3: the start. This was a lab laque, Caroline. I'm going
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: to take a deep dive into what Fauci said or
• 3:55
  Speaker 3: didn't say later in the show, But locally, if we
• 3:59
  Speaker 3: don't exact and what happened, aren't we at risk of
• 4:03
  Speaker 3: repeating the same mistakes when the next pandemic comes along.
• 4:08
  Speaker 6: Well, of course we are, but we're also still suffering
• 4:11
  Speaker 6: I think some of the consequences of some of the
• 4:14
  Speaker 6: decisions and some of the lack of directness and openness
• 4:17
  Speaker 6: from the time. I mean, we're even seeing fall in
• 4:21
  Speaker 6: childhood vaccination rates here in Australia, and you can't tell
• 4:24
  Speaker 6: me that that doesn't have something to do with this
• 4:28
  Speaker 6: lack of or loss of trust that occurred over that
• 4:33
  Speaker 6: period of time. And you know, I wouldn't have expected
• 4:37
  Speaker 6: them at the time to necessarily have all the answers,
• 4:40
  Speaker 6: say you don't have all the answers, but be honest
• 4:42
  Speaker 6: about the things that you do know, because this is
• 4:46
  Speaker 6: where you end up with this issue, Rita, of what
• 4:49
  Speaker 6: is the truth, what isn't the truth, what a deliberate lies,
• 4:52
  Speaker 6: what's misinformation? And what ends up becoming conspiracy theory. And
• 4:55
  Speaker 6: the problem is when you have such an enveloping issue
• 4:59
  Speaker 6: like we had with COVID at the time, they all
• 5:02
  Speaker 6: end up together and it's very difficult to work out
• 5:05
  Speaker 6: which is which and going forward unless we examine what
• 5:09
  Speaker 6: exactly happened and what people knew when they knew it,
• 5:12
  Speaker 6: and what they did wrong and what they didn't do
• 5:16
  Speaker 6: right or what they did right and what they didn't
• 5:18
  Speaker 6: do right. Well, then how we meant to plan for
• 5:20
  Speaker 6: next time? How are we going to be able to
• 5:22
  Speaker 6: mitigate those risks? Because you'll remember it, Rita, and we
• 5:26
  Speaker 6: were all having these conversations, the single issue was COVID.
• 5:30
  Speaker 6: No one was ever talking about the economic consequences or
• 5:33
  Speaker 6: the shadow pandemic of domestic violence, or kids not being
• 5:36
  Speaker 6: educated and all of those things which we announce see
• 5:38
  Speaker 6: work consequences of well, we were, we were, but unfortunately
• 5:43
  Speaker 6: you end up with a tale of consequences that it's damaging.
• 5:48
  Speaker 3: Yeah, and so much of what we are experiencing right now, Adam.
• 5:52
  Speaker 3: So much of the economic woes inflation is because of
• 5:57
  Speaker 3: the decisions that were made then. And it wasn't just
• 5:59
  Speaker 3: left dis governments. We had a coalition government in power
• 6:03
  Speaker 3: here and they were printing money and giving away money
• 6:06
  Speaker 3: like there was no tomorrow, and we are feeling the
• 6:08
  Speaker 3: effects today.
• 6:10
  Speaker 5: That's why it was hundreds of billions of dollars.
• 6:11
  Speaker 3: And it was obvious, it was obvious at the time
• 6:15
  Speaker 3: that you can't just print money, you can't just give
• 6:18
  Speaker 3: everyone these massive handouts for staying at home without having
• 6:23
  Speaker 3: grave consequences following. And it seemed like the entire media,
• 6:29
  Speaker 3: academic expert class close their eyes to this, that they
• 6:34
  Speaker 3: just pretended this was Oh, nothing bad will come of.
• 6:37
  Speaker 5: This, And of course very few of them now say
• 6:40
  Speaker 5: that they supported it.
• 6:41
  Speaker 3: Of course it's very quiet. Memory all be memory hold.
• 6:45
  Speaker 3: And one of those groups that were impacted were police
• 6:48
  Speaker 3: forces across the country. Unvaccinated police officers in New South
• 6:53
  Speaker 3: Wales who were sacked during the pandemic are being welcomed
• 6:57
  Speaker 3: back now, Caroline. The Else Police Force put out a
• 7:01
  Speaker 3: statement yesterday saying it has updated its COVID nineteen vaccination
• 7:06
  Speaker 3: policy requirement for mandatory to recommend it. This is so overdue.
• 7:11
  Speaker 3: We're in twenty twenty six, mid twenty twenty six, and
• 7:14
  Speaker 3: they finally have done this.
• 7:17
  Speaker 6: What's a disgrace. And this should have happened a long
• 7:20
  Speaker 6: long time ago. And again when we didn't know the
• 7:23
  Speaker 6: way the virus behaved, or we didn't know exactly know
• 7:27
  Speaker 6: how effective a vaccination is going to be, then fine,
• 7:31
  Speaker 6: maybe you have protocols that are a bit more stringent
• 7:35
  Speaker 6: or a bit more cautious, but we're so far down
• 7:38
  Speaker 6: the road, and quite frankly, RITA, if someone's breaking into
• 7:42
  Speaker 6: my house and my life is threatened, I don't care
• 7:45
  Speaker 6: if the police office has been vaccinated or not. I
• 7:47
  Speaker 6: just want someone to come to my rescue. And I
• 7:50
  Speaker 6: just feel like these sorts of things was part of
• 7:55
  Speaker 6: that general heavy handedness of the time and apparently accepted
• 7:59
  Speaker 6: or tolerated by vast majority of people. Again not the
• 8:02
  Speaker 6: three people who are sitting on Telly today. But you
• 8:07
  Speaker 6: do wonder what impact or what adverse impacts did that
• 8:10
  Speaker 6: have on policing at the time, because they were prioritizing
• 8:14
  Speaker 6: the thing that actually wasn't the principal issue, which is
• 8:17
  Speaker 6: you know, community safety, God forbid.
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: And it's not just police officers, it was fire fighters.
• 8:24
  Speaker 3: It was all stuck.
• 8:26
  Speaker 7: And not just.
• 8:28
  Speaker 3: And not just public sector workers, but the private sector.
• 8:32
  Speaker 3: There were so many workplaces where if it didn't have
• 8:36
  Speaker 3: your vaccine card or the two vaccination minimum for COVID,
• 8:42
  Speaker 3: you couldn't work, you couldn't enter your workplace.
• 8:44
  Speaker 5: And just going to tell you five years on from
• 8:46
  Speaker 5: when it was pretty clear that it did not stop
• 8:48
  Speaker 5: transmission at all. Indeed, there are some studies out there
• 8:50
  Speaker 5: that said actually increased transmission.
• 8:53
  Speaker 7: You know, these mandates have still existed.
• 8:55
  Speaker 5: Just unbelievable, the stubbornness of governments and bureaucracies. They do
• 8:59
  Speaker 5: not like admitting fault, but these people should be compensated
• 9:01
  Speaker 5: if they were stood down.
• 9:02
  Speaker 3: And they should be financially absolutely, and you know what,
• 9:04
  Speaker 3: as a taxpayer, this is one bit of a compensation.
• 9:08
  Speaker 3: I do not mind taking place back dating the pay
• 9:12
  Speaker 3: of every single worker, every single police officer who was
• 9:17
  Speaker 3: let go because they didn't have a vaccine pass. I
• 9:20
  Speaker 3: think it's absolutely appalling the way they were treated. Now,
• 9:23
  Speaker 3: let's move on to some other issues. Hard left activists
• 9:26
  Speaker 3: and commentator Hannah Ferguson has announced plans to challenge Prime
• 9:31
  Speaker 3: Minister Anthony Albanesi in his Marriqual seat.
• 9:35
  Speaker 6: Have a listen, More people need to be standing up,
• 9:37
  Speaker 6: putting their head above the parapet and challenging people like
• 9:40
  Speaker 6: the Prime Minister.
• 9:41
  Speaker 7: At the end of the day, he's an elected local
• 9:42
  Speaker 7: representative and I believe he's failing the area and I
• 9:44
  Speaker 7: want to change that.
• 9:46
  Speaker 3: I hadnam imagine being so hard left that Anthony Alberesi
• 9:51
  Speaker 3: from Labour's socialist left faction isn't left enough for you
• 9:55
  Speaker 3: that you feel the need to take a stand and
• 9:58
  Speaker 3: run in his own seat.
• 10:00
  Speaker 5: Look, that's true, and I mean it could be a
• 10:01
  Speaker 5: problem for the Prime Minister too because there is a
• 10:03
  Speaker 5: very left wing seat and in these very uncertain times
• 10:06
  Speaker 5: with one nation and preferences all over the place, you
• 10:09
  Speaker 5: just don't know what her five to ten percent priory,
• 10:11
  Speaker 5: let's say, is going to get and where it's going
• 10:14
  Speaker 5: to go, and what that means for him. I mean,
• 10:15
  Speaker 5: he'd be very angry about this. I do notice the
• 10:18
  Speaker 5: last person that stood there, I think was bashed by
• 10:19
  Speaker 5: the police accidentally, So you know, let's hope that doesn't
• 10:21
  Speaker 5: happen to his new candidate. But of course, but you
• 10:24
  Speaker 5: know it's you know, he'd be worried about, you know,
• 10:26
  Speaker 5: very worried about about.
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: The outcome there.
• 10:28
  Speaker 3: Oh, he would be. And Caroline, you might be seeing
• 10:32
  Speaker 3: some of those one nation votes because even a seat
• 10:34
  Speaker 3: like that would have one nation votes going to someone
• 10:37
  Speaker 3: who's even more left than he is, because it's not
• 10:40
  Speaker 3: going to Labor or the Greens, and they may not
• 10:44
  Speaker 3: know the politics of this woman who rationalized and seemed
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: to justify Charlie Kirk's brutal murder. She wrote at the time,
• 10:53
  Speaker 3: is violence sometimes necessary? And answered that with yes, this
• 10:59
  Speaker 3: is the character who's going to be running in that seat.
• 11:04
  Speaker 6: They were absolutely revolting comments. But the one thing that
• 11:09
  Speaker 6: I don't think we should necessarily assume that elbow will
• 11:12
  Speaker 6: be going around next election.
• 11:15
  Speaker 3: It depends.
• 11:15
  Speaker 6: Let's see how things play out over the next couple
• 11:19
  Speaker 6: of years. And to be honest, in a seat like
• 11:22
  Speaker 6: his and a seat like Sydney held by Tanya Plivasek,
• 11:25
  Speaker 6: once those very long term and entrenched MPs do retire,
• 11:31
  Speaker 6: those seats will almost certainly go to Greens or a
• 11:34
  Speaker 6: Greens aligned independent. So you might be talking about ten
• 11:38
  Speaker 6: percent primary, but you never know. Once you take out
• 11:41
  Speaker 6: a personal vote of someone like Albo or someone like
• 11:44
  Speaker 6: Tanya Plivasek, depending how those preferences go.
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: Those sorts of people.
• 11:49
  Speaker 6: Actually, you know, don't be surprised if that seat does
• 11:52
  Speaker 6: go further to the left. Would be very interesting to see,
• 11:55
  Speaker 6: that's for sure.
• 11:57
  Speaker 3: Now the Carol government. It feels weird saying that, but yes,
• 12:01
  Speaker 3: we have a Carol government here in Victoria. They'll be
• 12:04
  Speaker 3: undertaking a major review of the suburban rail loop. The
• 12:08
  Speaker 3: Herald Stunt understands that radical options are likely to be
• 12:12
  Speaker 3: assessed as part of the review, including whether tunneling deals
• 12:17
  Speaker 3: already signed could be repurposed. That's a good word, isn't it.
• 12:22
  Speaker 3: The twenty six kilometer first stage of the loop was
• 12:25
  Speaker 3: estimated to cost thirty to thirty four and a half
• 12:27
  Speaker 3: billion dollars in twenty twenty one. The entire ninety kilometer
• 12:31
  Speaker 3: project is forecast to cost more than two hundred billion
• 12:35
  Speaker 3: dollars and run over fifty years. Adam, this is one hot,
• 12:41
  Speaker 3: costly mess for labor, for the Victorian population and possibly
• 12:45
  Speaker 3: for voters around the country, because labor federally may have
• 12:50
  Speaker 3: to step in and help you.
• 12:52
  Speaker 5: Yeah, certainly, that's right. It's very good news that it
• 12:54
  Speaker 5: might be on the shopping block. This really is a
• 12:56
  Speaker 5: shockingly bad project, probably even more costly than snowy two
• 12:59
  Speaker 5: points yere I would say, in terms.
• 13:01
  Speaker 3: Of ways and possibly stupid are.
• 13:03
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 13:03
  Speaker 5: In the States, they can't afford it, I mean just
• 13:04
  Speaker 5: can't afford it. I mean, you know, there's tw hundred
• 13:06
  Speaker 5: and thirty billion dollars of debt. I mean it's rising.
• 13:08
  Speaker 5: I mean I've done calculations that just in a few years,
• 13:11
  Speaker 5: one quarter of the state's tax revenue it will just
• 13:13
  Speaker 5: be serving interests.
• 13:14
  Speaker 1: Right.
• 13:15
  Speaker 5: And also the other point I think that must be
• 13:17
  Speaker 5: made is these these projects are based on massive population
• 13:20
  Speaker 5: growth forecasts which are just not going to happen, right,
• 13:22
  Speaker 5: because of the rise of one nation. So all those forecasts,
• 13:26
  Speaker 5: you know, they're just not viable anymore. And all these
• 13:28
  Speaker 5: projects they just don't have the number of people that
• 13:30
  Speaker 5: are needed to make them worthwhile.
• 13:32
  Speaker 3: It is a mess in Victoria. Caroline dar Rosso, be
• 13:36
  Speaker 3: grateful you're not here, Adam crighton, you're a new Victorian.
• 13:40
  Speaker 3: Well welcome, thank you for your time.
• 13:43
  Speaker 5: Thanks der.
• 13:48
  Speaker 3: Now it's time for lefties losing it. And before we
• 13:51
  Speaker 3: dive into the characters of Anthony Fauci. Let's hear from
• 13:55
  Speaker 3: an actress who is just awful. These days. Much is
• 13:59
  Speaker 3: said about her appearance. I've got to say, we don't
• 14:01
  Speaker 3: care on this program about how much of a zempic
• 14:04
  Speaker 3: she has or doesn't have, or what she looks like.
• 14:08
  Speaker 3: What we care about is what's on the inside. And
• 14:11
  Speaker 3: Olivia Wilde has gone from being regular Hollywood kookie to
• 14:15
  Speaker 3: being a heartless haredin. Let's take a look at the
• 14:19
  Speaker 3: good old days where she was just weird. Here she
• 14:22
  Speaker 3: is chanting at Trump's building like a simpleton.
• 14:25
  Speaker 8: Trump is not a legitimate president. Trump is not a
• 14:31
  Speaker 8: Trump is not America.
• 14:33
  Speaker 7: Trump is not America.
• 14:35
  Speaker 3: Oh, the good old days of election denial, she peaked there.
• 14:39
  Speaker 3: Now she is just deeply unpleasant, full of bile, and delusional,
• 14:45
  Speaker 3: and she thinks she's intellectually and morally superior. Listen to
• 14:49
  Speaker 3: her talk about a man who is, by any objective measure,
• 14:53
  Speaker 3: a genius.
• 14:54
  Speaker 9: Have you met Elon Musk?
• 14:56
  Speaker 7: I have I met him before.
• 15:00
  Speaker 10: He turned into this.
• 15:04
  Speaker 7: Creature.
• 15:05
  Speaker 10: I really resent him now. I never would have predicted
• 15:08
  Speaker 10: that he would go the path that he's gone now,
• 15:11
  Speaker 10: because he did seem really smart.
• 15:13
  Speaker 3: Oh, it gets worse. It gets a lot worse. Listen
• 15:16
  Speaker 3: to how she and Louis Thurreux. You know him. He
• 15:19
  Speaker 3: is the dumb person's idea of a smart person. Listen
• 15:22
  Speaker 3: to these two called Jordan Peterson a pseudo intellectual and
• 15:26
  Speaker 3: then mock and dismiss the plight of young men.
• 15:30
  Speaker 10: I was quite harshed about Jordan Peterson, and then he
• 15:32
  Speaker 10: went on Pierce Morgan and cried.
• 15:34
  Speaker 9: You said, the Crispine character, he's partly based on or
• 15:37
  Speaker 9: inspired by, Jordan Peterson, who you described as a pseudo
• 15:41
  Speaker 9: intellectual hero to the insul community.
• 15:44
  Speaker 7: Yeah.
• 15:44
  Speaker 9: So when he's asked about it by Pierce Morgan, he
• 15:47
  Speaker 9: literally starts Chris crying. And then Pierce was like, what's
• 15:51
  Speaker 9: happening man, And he goes he said, I'm thinking of
• 15:53
  Speaker 9: those lonely young men quote dying for lack of an
• 15:57
  Speaker 9: encouraging word.
• 15:59
  Speaker 10: Wow, lack of an encouraging word is so absurd. I'd
• 16:05
  Speaker 10: say there is a large booming word of encouragement happening
• 16:10
  Speaker 10: at all time for these men, which is just this
• 16:13
  Speaker 10: world is yours and you are entitled to it, which
• 16:16
  Speaker 10: I think is deeply ingrained in our society, and the
• 16:20
  Speaker 10: idea that they need some sort of reminder of encouragement
• 16:23
  Speaker 10: that they deserve more is ludicrous.
• 16:27
  Speaker 3: What a heartless creature to use her term, a heartless
• 16:31
  Speaker 3: creature full of hate and somehow so boldly confident despite
• 16:36
  Speaker 3: her meager knowledge, arrogance and ignorance is a dangerous, ugly mixture. Now, Olivia,
• 16:43
  Speaker 3: despite meeting Elon Musk receiving money from him for a
• 16:46
  Speaker 3: chatterable cause, is still disgusted by him because, like most
• 16:50
  Speaker 3: of America, he backed Donald Trump over the Democrats, and
• 16:54
  Speaker 3: that slander and unhingch hate for mask isn't confined to
• 16:57
  Speaker 3: lefties in the US. The Brits are arguably even worse.
• 17:01
  Speaker 3: Some of them want to lock him up for protecting
• 17:04
  Speaker 3: free speech by purchasing Twitter and actually allowing it to
• 17:08
  Speaker 3: be an unbiased social media platform. But standing up for
• 17:12
  Speaker 3: free speech comes at a cost. It makes your prior
• 17:16
  Speaker 3: in much of the media, and it also makes you
• 17:18
  Speaker 3: far right.
• 17:19
  Speaker 4: You support not just the populus right, but the far right,
• 17:22
  Speaker 4: in fact, very fringe parties in some countries.
• 17:24
  Speaker 11: The normal people. What do you call the far right?
• 17:27
  Speaker 11: Falseley you think it's the normal person? Okay, yes, liftly,
• 17:32
  Speaker 11: could you could go back ten or fifteen years and
• 17:35
  Speaker 11: these policies were completely normal. U right, Please, it's actually
• 17:41
  Speaker 11: just normal people. It's just normal people. It's just normal people.
• 17:44
  Speaker 11: And here are the principles, and tell me which do
• 17:47
  Speaker 11: these sound terrible? That we should have secure borders, that
• 17:51
  Speaker 11: we should have safe cities, that we should have sensible spending.
• 17:56
  Speaker 11: Which are those three are a.
• 17:58
  Speaker 1: Far right fringe?
• 18:00
  Speaker 11: And I would like to just admonish you and the
• 18:04
  Speaker 11: media for the absurd characterization of the far right. It
• 18:09
  Speaker 11: is false and misleading and nonsense. Please keep this part in.
• 18:14
  Speaker 11: We'll keep all of this.
• 18:15
  Speaker 3: Bravo, Alon. But the Economist editor in chaeve Zanny Minton
• 18:20
  Speaker 3: Beddows wasn't done yet. She was determined to show just
• 18:24
  Speaker 3: how smug and proudly out of touch the media has become,
• 18:28
  Speaker 3: and Alon was there ready to give her a reality check.
• 18:32
  Speaker 11: It's why people loathe you. I mean, some people do
• 18:35
  Speaker 11: loath you, Yes, some people do.
• 18:37
  Speaker 7: But do you.
• 18:37
  Speaker 6: Understand why do you think what you're doing is helpful
• 18:40
  Speaker 6: for Western bias?
• 18:42
  Speaker 11: Maybe some people do loath me, and that's probably true.
• 18:45
  Speaker 11: I don't care the but but the fact that, as
• 18:51
  Speaker 11: you pointed out, a quarter billion people follow me is
• 18:54
  Speaker 11: that I think a lot more people actually like me
• 18:57
  Speaker 11: than don't. And I think a lot more people hate
• 19:00
  Speaker 11: you and the media more than you realize.
• 19:03
  Speaker 3: Yes, the media, bulk of the media is loath for
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: good reason, and most of them, like Zanny there are oblivious.
• 19:11
  Speaker 11: Your loads far more than I am. And you don't
• 19:14
  Speaker 11: seem to even realize that.
• 19:15
  Speaker 5: I think I think very few people know who I
• 19:17
  Speaker 5: am relative to you, So I don't think I play
• 19:18
  Speaker 5: in the same.
• 19:19
  Speaker 11: Game the media collectively. So I mean, you hate it?
• 19:26
  Speaker 11: Do you even? Do you even know that? You probably don't.
• 19:29
  Speaker 3: Now to the astonishing Senate hearing earlier today featuring former
• 19:33
  Speaker 3: chief US Health official Anthony Fauci.
• 19:37
  Speaker 8: The.
• 19:43
  Speaker 3: Bold go ahead, ask me a question. Didn't you.
• 19:51
  Speaker 7: A secret document that I think you need to say?
• 19:56
  Speaker 1: You know?
• 19:56
  Speaker 3: I'm sorry to say. The real thing was even worse.
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: This a malignant, little megalomaniac was granted a preemptive presidential pardon,
• 20:05
  Speaker 3: and yet he declined to answer any questions, invoking the
• 20:09
  Speaker 3: Fifth Amendment one hundred and eleven times. That was too
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: much for Senator Bernie Morino.
• 20:16
  Speaker 12: Those policies were put in place because you had moronic
• 20:21
  Speaker 12: politicians that listened to the words of a megalomaniac who
• 20:27
  Speaker 12: was more interested in having met a Kardashian than the
• 20:32
  Speaker 12: suffering of the American people. And that is you. It
• 20:36
  Speaker 12: was about six years ago today that I decided I'm
• 20:39
  Speaker 12: going to give up my businesses, sell them all, run
• 20:43
  Speaker 12: for office, run for the United States Senate. Here I
• 20:46
  Speaker 12: am sitting in front of you, six years later, saying,
• 20:48
  Speaker 12: who the heck do you think you were for doing that?
• 20:53
  Speaker 12: It is a total disgrace what you did to this country.
• 20:57
  Speaker 3: Now watch here as Senator Josh Hawley he rips into
• 21:01
  Speaker 3: this shameless little charlatan. You may need a cigarette after this.
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: Well, nothing says honesty like taking the fifth h doc.
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: Let's try something. What day of the week is it today?
• 21:17
  Speaker 4: On the divisive Council, I respectfully decline to and se
• 21:20
  Speaker 4: based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment of the.
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: Constitutional color tie you're wearing.
• 21:27
  Speaker 4: On the advisive Council, I respectfully declined to and se
• 21:30
  Speaker 4: based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.
• 21:34
  Speaker 1: What color is the carpet in front of you?
• 21:39
  Speaker 4: On the Advisive Council? I respectfully decline to and se
• 21:43
  Speaker 4: based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: Let's just get one thing straight. You don't have any
• 21:48
  Speaker 1: rights under the Fifth Amendment because you've been pardoned, as
• 21:51
  Speaker 1: you very well know, as a Supreme Court has been
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: clear for a century and more. Brown versus Walker, eighteen
• 21:57
  Speaker 1: ninety six. When he has been parted, he may not
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: stand upon his privilege. You know that your lawyer is
• 22:04
  Speaker 1: sitting behind you now, shifting nervously in their chairs. They
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: know it. This isn't about the Constitution, This isn't about
• 22:10
  Speaker 1: the law. This is about contempt, contempt for this body,
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: and contempt for the American people.
• 22:16
  Speaker 3: Nailed it, nailed it, and then Senator Haley took Fauci
• 22:21
  Speaker 3: through some of his actions during the height of the
• 22:24
  Speaker 3: COVID pandemic.
• 22:25
  Speaker 1: I think I know why you're doing it. It's because
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: you don't want to answer questions. It's because you did
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: all kinds of terrible things. It's because during the pandemic,
• 22:34
  Speaker 1: you got rich, didn't you. You got rich while people
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: were dying, hundreds of thousands of Americans over a million
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: in the end, and you were getting rich. And not
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: only were you doing that, you were using federal employees
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: with taxpayer money to apply for and solicit cash prizes
• 22:54
  Speaker 1: for you personally, cash prizes totaling over a million dollars?
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: Who did all of that during the pandemic, didn't you?
• 23:04
  Speaker 4: That's a question on the Advisive Council, I respectfully declined
• 23:08
  Speaker 4: to answer based upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment
• 23:11
  Speaker 4: to the Constitution.
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: You remember great Folkers, who was that.
• 23:16
  Speaker 4: On the Advisive Council? I respectfully declined to answer based
• 23:20
  Speaker 4: upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.
• 23:22
  Speaker 1: Your chief of staff is the answer. Do you remember
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: Patricia Conrad? Who is that.
• 23:28
  Speaker 4: On the Advisive Council? I respectfully declined to answer based
• 23:31
  Speaker 4: upon my rights under the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: And it wasn't just Fauci acting a fool. His lawyers
• 23:37
  Speaker 3: were also deliberately obstructing proceedings.
• 23:41
  Speaker 13: The attorneys are not recognized. In fact, the attorney was
• 23:44
  Speaker 13: told not to sit at the table and he's not
• 23:46
  Speaker 13: obeying that recommendation. There's a rowe behind you, sir, that's
• 23:49
  Speaker 13: where you were told to sit and you're not, and
• 23:52
  Speaker 13: now you're disrupting the proceedings. And so look, this is
• 23:55
  Speaker 13: the way Anthony Fauchi wants to be remembered. For a lawyer,
• 23:58
  Speaker 13: not listening to the rules. That's the way you want
• 24:01
  Speaker 13: to be remembered, and that's what you're going to do.
• 24:03
  Speaker 13: You are not recognized, Sir Security, Please remove in from
• 24:08
  Speaker 13: the room. Let the records state that doctor Fousci will
• 24:21
  Speaker 13: still have the advice of the other half a dozen
• 24:23
  Speaker 13: attorneys that he brought along today, half.
• 24:26
  Speaker 3: A dozen attorneys just to plead the fifth one hundred
• 24:29
  Speaker 3: and eleven times still to come. The latest from the US,
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: including a test of just how left or conservative black
• 24:40
  Speaker 3: voters are. The results will surprise you. Army Horowitz is
• 24:43
  Speaker 3: up next. Welcome back. Joining me now is documentary filmmaker
• 24:55
  Speaker 3: and commentator Army Horowitz. Army, I've played some highlights low
• 25:00
  Speaker 3: lights of today's Senate hearing featuring doctor Anthony Fauci. What
• 25:05
  Speaker 3: did you make of what you've seen so far?
• 25:09
  Speaker 7: Uh? Yeah, that was a dumpter fire for sure. I mean,
• 25:14
  Speaker 7: it's it's unbelievable that in this day and age, we're
• 25:18
  Speaker 7: still trying to figure out what's going on right with COVID.
• 25:24
  Speaker 7: I mean, how many years has this taken and we
• 25:27
  Speaker 7: still don't have the full truth. And we won't get
• 25:29
  Speaker 7: the full truth from him obviously, because he invoked the
• 25:33
  Speaker 7: Fifth Amendment one hundred and eleven times. It's unbelievable.
• 25:39
  Speaker 3: It is unbelievable, and yet the Republican senators are pressing on.
• 25:45
  Speaker 3: Let's hear from Senator Ted Cruz, who wants to see
• 25:48
  Speaker 3: Anthony Fauci behind bars.
• 25:51
  Speaker 14: Anthony Fauci has had contempt for Congress and contempt for
• 25:56
  Speaker 14: the American people for decades. His diary shows he deliberately
• 26:01
  Speaker 14: lied to the American people over and over and over again.
• 26:04
  Speaker 9: In his diary, he.
• 26:05
  Speaker 14: Wrote early on that it was clear that the COVID
• 26:10
  Speaker 14: virus did not come from the wet market in Wuhana.
• 26:13
  Speaker 14: Then he turned around and said exactly the opposite thing
• 26:17
  Speaker 14: on national television. In his diary, he brags about convincing
• 26:22
  Speaker 14: Democrats in New York and California to shut schools down,
• 26:26
  Speaker 14: and yet he goes on TV and says, oh, I
• 26:27
  Speaker 14: wasn't for shutdowns. That level of contempt and dishonesty is disgraceful.
• 26:36
  Speaker 14: He should be held in contempt, he should be prosecuted
• 26:39
  Speaker 14: for perjury, and he should go to Gail na Ami.
• 26:42
  Speaker 3: What are the chances that he will be found in
• 26:44
  Speaker 3: contempt and face any sort of penalty given that preemptive
• 26:48
  Speaker 3: pardon Joe Biden gave.
• 26:50
  Speaker 7: Him under the Advisive Council. I am taking the fifth
• 26:54
  Speaker 7: Amendment of the Constitution state, I don't self incriminate myself. Rita,
• 27:00
  Speaker 7: Look it's in it was. It's crazy to watch right,
• 27:04
  Speaker 7: especially like that. Look a lot of this is theatrics,
• 27:07
  Speaker 7: right and performative. I really don't like that part of it,
• 27:09
  Speaker 7: but it does make for fun television. You know what closure, tie?
• 27:12
  Speaker 7: I take the fifth? What closed the carpet? I take
• 27:14
  Speaker 7: the fifth? Those are not made up things. There are
• 27:16
  Speaker 7: actual questions that're asked to see if you even say that. Look,
• 27:20
  Speaker 7: technically he could be brought up on on on uh
• 27:24
  Speaker 7: contempt charges. In reality, it's it's not really gonna happen, Rita.
• 27:29
  Speaker 7: Cener of Paul has actually scheduled a contempt hearing for
• 27:32
  Speaker 7: next week. Uh, it's going to pass the committee level
• 27:36
  Speaker 7: because all you need there is a majority. But in
• 27:38
  Speaker 7: reality it's it's not going to pass the full Senate
• 27:40
  Speaker 7: because you need a filibuster proof majority of sixty votes.
• 27:43
  Speaker 7: Republicans simply don't have it. Uh. Secondly, the last time
• 27:46
  Speaker 7: the Senate actually voted for somebody to contempt, I was
• 27:50
  Speaker 7: in Utero, and as you can see, that was a
• 27:53
  Speaker 7: very long time ago, you know, as far as the
• 27:56
  Speaker 7: other charges go, obviously he was pardoned, right pre pardoned
• 27:59
  Speaker 7: by I Bide, which by the way, is so bizarre.
• 28:02
  Speaker 7: I mean, that just tells you something was a miss.
• 28:06
  Speaker 7: But remember, pardons for the president don't cover state level charges. Yes,
• 28:12
  Speaker 7: and states can bring charges, and we already see that.
• 28:15
  Speaker 7: For example, Florida is kind of setting up to do this.
• 28:19
  Speaker 7: So we'll see what happens. I mean, I think there
• 28:22
  Speaker 7: needs to be a very high bar to prove that
• 28:25
  Speaker 7: he did something that was worthy of going to prison.
• 28:29
  Speaker 7: But look, there's a lot of smoke out there, right.
• 28:32
  Speaker 7: I'm not saying the fire is there, but it kind
• 28:34
  Speaker 7: of sort of looks like that. I got to tell
• 28:37
  Speaker 7: you though, But this whole thing with the diary, God,
• 28:40
  Speaker 7: it's so he's so thirsty, Rita. I don't keep a
• 28:45
  Speaker 7: diary for exactly this reason. I'm not looking for my
• 28:48
  Speaker 7: dirty laundry put out there. Also, it's kind of girly.
• 28:52
  Speaker 7: I also learned a couple of new things. I did
• 28:55
  Speaker 7: not know that Anthony Fauci is worth twelve million dollars dollars. Rina.
• 29:02
  Speaker 7: That's a lot of cabbage geez, And yeah, the whole
• 29:06
  Speaker 7: thing is just that he looked. I think the worst, honestly,
• 29:09
  Speaker 7: the worst thing about all of this is that he
• 29:13
  Speaker 7: destroyed the trust the American people have in our scientific community.
• 29:18
  Speaker 7: And while that cost us hundreds of thousands, in case
• 29:22
  Speaker 7: millions of lives, I'm afraid that that's even gonna be
• 29:26
  Speaker 7: a drop in a bucket compared to something that's going
• 29:28
  Speaker 7: to be so overwhelmingly bad. And we're just not gonna
• 29:31
  Speaker 7: believe what they're saying because they're refused to tell us
• 29:34
  Speaker 7: the truth. I think that's the worst part of all
• 29:36
  Speaker 7: of this, to be.
• 29:36
  Speaker 3: Honest, absolutely, I just think he is a coward. The
• 29:42
  Speaker 3: fact that he does have this preemptive pardon and it
• 29:45
  Speaker 3: still is taking the fifth refusing to answer the most
• 29:48
  Speaker 3: straightforward questions, refusing to take any accountability, not provide any transparency. Really,
• 29:55
  Speaker 3: it really is quite shameful. Now, I want to move
• 29:59
  Speaker 3: on to some foot you shot yourself recently testing how
• 30:03
  Speaker 3: left or conservative black students are, and the results shocked many,
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: including the students themselves.
• 30:12
  Speaker 7: And nearly ninety percent of black people have voted for
• 30:14
  Speaker 7: the Democratic Party over the years, but do their ideals
• 30:18
  Speaker 7: master voting patterns. Should parents have more control over education
• 30:22
  Speaker 7: or should the government have more control over parent parents?
• 30:27
  Speaker 14: Parents, parents, the government, vally government money, stuff like that.
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: I mean you asked ten questions around all sorts of issues,
• 30:38
  Speaker 3: economic issues, climate change, social issues. I want to play
• 30:42
  Speaker 3: a clip here of how these students who see themselves
• 30:47
  Speaker 3: as democrat, how socially conservative some of them are.
• 30:51
  Speaker 7: Should we generally have more policing or less policing?
• 30:57
  Speaker 12: It's affected policing more, have more police, I would say
• 31:00
  Speaker 12: more police.
• 31:01
  Speaker 7: Should we allow children to medically transition home?
• 31:04
  Speaker 8: I would be canceling.
• 31:06
  Speaker 3: I think we should wear into it.
• 31:07
  Speaker 14: They like they no more?
• 31:10
  Speaker 1: Everybody get decision American.
• 31:12
  Speaker 7: Okay, hell no help, Hell no no anything about that?
• 31:16
  Speaker 9: Yeah no, no, no, I don't even think on that one.
• 31:17
  Speaker 7: Should we allow males to transition to females compete against
• 31:22
  Speaker 7: women in sports? Yes?
• 31:24
  Speaker 3: No, I say no, so we allow males in transition?
• 31:28
  Speaker 11: Hell no, no, it's not fair.
• 31:30
  Speaker 3: Like the Leah Thomas you know the situation.
• 31:32
  Speaker 1: Yeah, no, not at all.
• 31:33
  Speaker 3: He was like five hundred with the males and then
• 31:35
  Speaker 3: number one with the women.
• 31:36
  Speaker 8: Yeah, it's ridiculous.
• 31:37
  Speaker 3: Yeahcuse theological differences between males and people. You know, males
• 31:40
  Speaker 3: and people. And when you talented up the results, you
• 31:43
  Speaker 3: found that despite Black Americans, as you said, voting ninety
• 31:47
  Speaker 3: percent Democrat, no other Democrat demographic comes close to that
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: for either side of politics. Despite that record, This is
• 31:57
  Speaker 3: how the young black students you spoke to a lot politically.
• 32:01
  Speaker 7: Republican, Republican, Republican, Republican, Democrat, Republican, Republican, Republican. That's a
• 32:12
  Speaker 7: big R. That's a big R. That's a big R.
• 32:16
  Speaker 7: That's a big R. Republican, Republican, Republican, Republican, Republican. You
• 32:22
  Speaker 7: are sixty percent Republican. You are also sixty percent Republicans.
• 32:26
  Speaker 8: You are more.
• 32:29
  Speaker 7: Seventy You are seventy percent Republican, sixty percent Republican. You
• 32:35
  Speaker 7: are sixty percent republican. You are seventy percent Republican, thirty
• 32:41
  Speaker 7: percent Democrats. Crazy, you are eighty percent Republican. I think
• 32:45
  Speaker 7: as I might be republican, it might be republican.
• 32:48
  Speaker 3: That's the people they helped himself, right, you help themselves, correct?
• 32:51
  Speaker 3: I mean we can some of them saying genuinely shocked.
• 32:56
  Speaker 3: What did they say to you? Off camera? With a
• 32:59
  Speaker 3: apps said it all by your findings.
• 33:02
  Speaker 7: I Rita. I can't help but smile every time I
• 33:06
  Speaker 7: watched that video. I've seen it a thousand times. It's
• 33:09
  Speaker 7: so sweet, it's so genuine. You see their react. The
• 33:13
  Speaker 7: best part was their reactions, right, No, everyone loved it.
• 33:18
  Speaker 7: Everyone was shocked. Everyone's that. I can't wait to start
• 33:22
  Speaker 7: telling my friends about this. Okay, despite the talking like
• 33:27
  Speaker 7: by the way, the things that they were saying were
• 33:30
  Speaker 7: like Republican talking points, like aren't those the people who
• 33:34
  Speaker 7: want them to help themselves? I guess we could, you know,
• 33:36
  Speaker 7: it's amazing. Look, the dirty little secret is that black
• 33:39
  Speaker 7: people are really conservative, right. I mean, they have the
• 33:43
  Speaker 7: highest belief in God than any demographic in this country.
• 33:49
  Speaker 7: And they yes, they have very deep conservative cultural, social
• 33:55
  Speaker 7: beliefs and those policies. And I think that's the problem
• 33:58
  Speaker 7: with the Republican part. We have not done a good
• 34:01
  Speaker 7: enough job to capture that. I think that's available for us.
• 34:05
  Speaker 7: And by the way, the Democrats that do themselves no favors.
• 34:09
  Speaker 7: With the emergence of the DSA, four percent of the
• 34:13
  Speaker 7: DSA membership are black. It's against thirteen percent of the
• 34:17
  Speaker 7: overall population. They don't agree agree with their cultural policy
• 34:21
  Speaker 7: they don't agree with their policies on police. You and
• 34:24
  Speaker 7: I have talked about video after video I've done about
• 34:28
  Speaker 7: voter ID and defund the police and bail reform, and
• 34:32
  Speaker 7: in each and every time, when confronted with both sides,
• 34:36
  Speaker 7: they almost always agree with the conservative slash Republican side.
• 34:41
  Speaker 7: And look, and Trump has show this electorally. He doubled
• 34:44
  Speaker 7: his vote to his tally from the first time he ran.
• 34:48
  Speaker 7: And I think that's a constituency the Republicans have to
• 34:52
  Speaker 7: go after. And by the way, they they essentially are
• 34:54
  Speaker 7: the ones who choose the Democratic nominee because everything goes
• 34:58
  Speaker 7: through South Carolina, a bunch of blacks. And that's why
• 35:01
  Speaker 7: Comrade Bernie lost it because South Carolina, the black votes said, ah,
• 35:06
  Speaker 7: you're two nuts. So Democratic Party learn a lesson, please,
• 35:10
  Speaker 7: or don't.
• 35:11
  Speaker 3: Absolutely you're so right. I think the same true is
• 35:16
  Speaker 3: for migrant communities. Many migrant communities that have traditionally voted Democrat,
• 35:22
  Speaker 3: a lot of them have come over to Republicans side
• 35:25
  Speaker 3: because they are socially conservative and the Democrats have become
• 35:28
  Speaker 3: so radical in some of these areas that people just
• 35:32
  Speaker 3: have to change their voting patterns, even if they've voted
• 35:35
  Speaker 3: that way all their lives. Now, before you go, I
• 35:38
  Speaker 3: don't have much time, but I'm interested in your take
• 35:41
  Speaker 3: on the Minnesota story. Where else Ford Minnesota Governor Tim Walls,
• 35:45
  Speaker 3: famous for being Kamala's running mate and putting tampons in boys'
• 35:49
  Speaker 3: locker rooms. Now we have another first for Minnesota with
• 35:53
  Speaker 3: schools and hospitals providing dolls with removable genitals to children
• 35:58
  Speaker 3: as young as four.
• 35:59
  Speaker 7: Are me.
• 36:00
  Speaker 3: This is to allow them to express this sexual identities.
• 36:04
  Speaker 3: Is this necessary?
• 36:07
  Speaker 7: Remind that song detachabupenis uh yeah, sorry that was I'm sorry.
• 36:14
  Speaker 7: I had to say. I had to co go. Look,
• 36:17
  Speaker 7: it shocks me that Kamala Harris and Tim Walls are
• 36:21
  Speaker 7: not president and vice president right now? Right talk about
• 36:25
  Speaker 7: the black vote. Yeah, this is the kind of stuff
• 36:28
  Speaker 7: particularly black men are not really down with. It's nuts.
• 36:31
  Speaker 7: Look real quick. The most interesting thing about this I
• 36:34
  Speaker 7: look this up on Google and I said, what's going
• 36:36
  Speaker 7: on with this? And every single mainstream media site and
• 36:41
  Speaker 7: the fact checkers said, there's no mandate for this. That's
• 36:45
  Speaker 7: a strong man argument. No one's saying there's a mandate
• 36:48
  Speaker 7: for schools. It is made available to schools. They know
• 36:51
  Speaker 7: that they're making up an entire argument which does not exist.
• 36:55
  Speaker 7: Of course, it's true. Of course is being made available
• 36:58
  Speaker 7: to four to ten year olds, and that's no bueno. Guys.
• 37:04
  Speaker 3: RB Horowitz always a pleasure still to come. WNBA fans
• 37:11
  Speaker 3: film deporating girls wearing xxxy shirts in support of women's sport.
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: Kin cisco Field has the details. Welcome back now. Somehow,
• 37:30
  Speaker 3: despite all the available evidence, the celebrity class is still
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: defending Anthony Fauci. Here is a leftist TV host Andy Cohen,
• 37:39
  Speaker 3: writing on X the country is an absolute dumpster fire,
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: a war with no plan, skyrocketing prices, a deeply unpopular,
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: demented president. So let's go after Fauci. What an absolute joke?
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah you now did there, Andy? And have listened to
• 37:56
  Speaker 3: this from TMZ's Harvey Levin, who took Over's official account,
• 38:01
  Speaker 3: which has far more followers than his own account to
• 38:05
  Speaker 3: post this.
• 38:06
  Speaker 2: Watching Anthony Fauci before a congressional hearing taking the Fifth
• 38:13
  Speaker 2: Amendment is just one of the most heartbreaking things I
• 38:18
  Speaker 2: have seen in government in my lifetime.
• 38:20
  Speaker 3: Yes, Harvey Levin is a lefty idiot. He watched a
• 38:24
  Speaker 3: man dodge accountability and his heart was broken. Not for
• 38:28
  Speaker 3: the American people, but for Fauci, the little narcissist with
• 38:32
  Speaker 3: a fame obsession. And then Harvey likened today's hearings to
• 38:36
  Speaker 3: our McCarthyism.
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: We are in a Senator Joseph McCarthy climate where there
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: is such fear that people have.
• 38:49
  Speaker 3: You know, I don't remember Harvey Levin saying a word
• 38:52
  Speaker 3: when there was genuine McCarthyism during the Obama and Biden years,
• 38:56
  Speaker 3: when Trump associates were jailed on politically motivation charges, when
• 39:01
  Speaker 3: they tried to put Trump and his family in jail.
• 39:04
  Speaker 3: And he has nothing to say about the blacklisting of
• 39:07
  Speaker 3: conservatives in Hollywood. But how now he's coming out defending
• 39:12
  Speaker 3: the indefensible.
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: And we are turning him into what Rand Paul wants
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: to be a criminal And Rand Paul has a political
• 39:22
  Speaker 2: agenda and it is prevailing here. Watching Ran Paul order
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: security to throw Anthony Fauci's lawyer out of that hearing
• 39:33
  Speaker 2: was unbelievable to me. We are in a dark period
• 39:38
  Speaker 2: of America.
• 39:40
  Speaker 3: You absolute simpleton. Fauchi still had a round half a
• 39:44
  Speaker 3: dozen lawyers sitting there after that recalcitrant attorney was ejected
• 39:48
  Speaker 3: for repeatedly interrupting proceedings and Harve eleven, I haven't forgotten
• 39:53
  Speaker 3: how you lied about your staff celebrating Charlie Kirk's murder.
• 39:58
  Speaker 3: I see you. Let's bring in hosts of the Kinsey
• 40:01
  Speaker 3: Scofield Unfiltered podcast Kinsey Schofield, Kidsie, what did you make
• 40:06
  Speaker 3: of Harvey Levin's passionate defense of Anthony Fauci.
• 40:12
  Speaker 15: Was Levin watching the same hearing that we were watching?
• 40:15
  Speaker 15: I mean, it felt entirely upside down. Ran Paul is
• 40:20
  Speaker 15: one of the most moral, cleanest, unproblematic politicians in my lifetime.
• 40:26
  Speaker 15: Like the fact that he would go after Ram Paul
• 40:29
  Speaker 15: absolutely blows my mind. The newly released diary entries raise
• 40:34
  Speaker 15: serious questions about Fauci's priorities in public image. Americans do
• 40:38
  Speaker 15: deserve transparency from public officials, and when you're called before
• 40:42
  Speaker 15: Congress and repeatedly invoke the Fifth Amendment, people are naturally
• 40:46
  Speaker 15: going to ask what you're trying to hide. You know,
• 40:49
  Speaker 15: for years Americans were told to simply trust the experts
• 40:53
  Speaker 15: and trust the science, and now they're asking personal or
• 40:56
  Speaker 15: perfectly reasonable questions, and suddenly accountability is considered persecution. I
• 41:03
  Speaker 15: do think that public trust was damaged during the pandemic
• 41:06
  Speaker 15: and if these leaders want to rebuild it, transparency is
• 41:09
  Speaker 15: the only way forward.
• 41:13
  Speaker 3: It seems like Harve eleven is relying on the ignorance
• 41:16
  Speaker 3: of his audience. He's relying on them not to actually
• 41:19
  Speaker 3: watch the footage for themselves, and then he can give
• 41:22
  Speaker 3: them this narrative without them having any knowledge that challenges
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: the absurdity that he's spewing there and for him to
• 41:33
  Speaker 3: take over TMZ's official accounts and this was not just
• 41:37
  Speaker 3: on YouTube, also on all their social media platforms. That
• 41:41
  Speaker 3: message of his got out to tens of millions.
• 41:46
  Speaker 15: Well, you know, he's taken a break from disrupting the
• 41:49
  Speaker 15: Nancy Guthrie case that he continues to, in my personal opinion,
• 41:55
  Speaker 15: jeopardized through posting these these notorious notes that are not
• 42:01
  Speaker 15: actually from the kidnappers. So I mean, like he's a disruptor,
• 42:05
  Speaker 15: is my point. He's a disruptor. When is he doing good?
• 42:08
  Speaker 15: When is he actually trying to add value? You know,
• 42:11
  Speaker 15: he's one of the ones that we're chasing down Britney
• 42:13
  Speaker 15: Spears in ninety seven when she's shaving her head and
• 42:16
  Speaker 15: running a muck. This is not somebody that does anything
• 42:20
  Speaker 15: to try to make the world a better place, or
• 42:23
  Speaker 15: society a better place. We have to be realistic about
• 42:26
  Speaker 15: who we're dealing with here.
• 42:29
  Speaker 3: Absolutely. Now, let's talk about the WNBA fans and the
• 42:34
  Speaker 3: owner co owner of the Seattle Storm WNBA team have
• 42:38
  Speaker 3: been filmed forrating a couple of girls wearing xxxy shirts
• 42:43
  Speaker 3: in support of women's sport and in support of Sophie Cunningham,
• 42:47
  Speaker 3: who made a stand for protecting women's sport from male bodies.
• 42:51
  Speaker 3: Let's have a look at the footage.
• 42:55
  Speaker 8: That's nice. Now.
• 43:15
  Speaker 3: The Storm has provided a statement to Fox News saying
• 43:19
  Speaker 3: we are aware one of our co owners made comments
• 43:22
  Speaker 3: to two fans in attendance at last night's game. We
• 43:25
  Speaker 3: apologize that this happened. Everyone who attends a Storm game
• 43:29
  Speaker 3: deserves to feel welcome and will remain committed to creating
• 43:33
  Speaker 3: an inclusive environment where every fan is treated with respect. Well,
• 43:37
  Speaker 3: it didn't look like there was too much respect there.
• 43:39
  Speaker 3: How can you possibly be triggered by a T shirt
• 43:43
  Speaker 3: that says xxx y. It's just stating a biological reality.
• 43:48
  Speaker 15: Yeah, the irony is remarkable. The people preaching tolerance often
• 43:52
  Speaker 15: seem the least tolerant when somebody disagrees with them. I mean,
• 43:56
  Speaker 15: I've become a huge Sophie Cunningham found in twenty twenty six.
• 44:00
  Speaker 15: He has strong moral courage, defends her friends and females
• 44:03
  Speaker 15: in general. She's willing to see what so many female
• 44:06
  Speaker 15: athletes are afraid to say out loud. Women's sports deserve
• 44:09
  Speaker 15: to remain women's sports. And just imagine being harassed for
• 44:13
  Speaker 15: wearing a shirt that supports female athletes. If we're serious
• 44:17
  Speaker 15: about inclusion, that has to include people with different opinions too.
• 44:22
  Speaker 3: Well, yeah, it seems like inclusion doesn't include the most
• 44:26
  Speaker 3: mainstream opinion when it comes to this, because this is
• 44:29
  Speaker 3: an eighty twenty issue. This is not some fifty to
• 44:32
  Speaker 3: fifty issue where the public is divided down the middle.
• 44:36
  Speaker 3: This is perhaps even a ninety ten issue when it
• 44:39
  Speaker 3: comes to male bodies being allowed to compete in women's sport.
• 44:44
  Speaker 3: Now we've got to talk a little bit about Megan Markle.
• 44:47
  Speaker 3: She's opened up about advice Prince Harry gave her on
• 44:50
  Speaker 3: getting through the tough days. Have a listen.
• 44:53
  Speaker 16: But you know, here's a helicopter pilot in the British
• 44:55
  Speaker 16: Army for ten years and sometimes on really hard days,
• 45:00
  Speaker 16: he said, But I love you know, even if there's
• 45:03
  Speaker 16: a storm happening. Above the storm, the sun's always shining.
• 45:07
  Speaker 16: And that's a perspective that only comes when when you
• 45:09
  Speaker 16: think about zooming out a little bit.
• 45:12
  Speaker 3: Kinsey, were you moved by those insights?
• 45:15
  Speaker 15: I mean my bowels? Maybe my bowels. That would be
• 45:19
  Speaker 15: the extent of any sort of movement. Prince Harry's advice
• 45:22
  Speaker 15: isn't bad. My only question is why didn't you take
• 45:24
  Speaker 15: it himself six years ago. I've never seen two people
• 45:27
  Speaker 15: so committed to the victim narrative. At some point, healing
• 45:30
  Speaker 15: requires looking forward instead of constantly looking back. The happiest
• 45:34
  Speaker 15: people I know don't spend years reltigating every perceived slight. Eventually,
• 45:39
  Speaker 15: you have to choose peace over perpetual grievance.
• 45:43
  Speaker 3: And let's stick with Prince Harry. It's been revealed Canadian
• 45:47
  Speaker 3: taxpayers spent more money protecting Prince Harry over five years
• 45:52
  Speaker 3: during his visits to Canada than any other internationally protected
• 45:56
  Speaker 3: person over the same period. Kinsey CBS is saying they
• 46:00
  Speaker 3: spent well over five hundred thousand dollars. Is that money
• 46:03
  Speaker 3: well spent?
• 46:05
  Speaker 15: Absolutely not more than half a million dollars in taxpayer
• 46:08
  Speaker 15: funded security for Prince Harry. That's a tough sell. During
• 46:11
  Speaker 15: a cost of living crisis. He voluntarily left royal duties,
• 46:15
  Speaker 15: but taxpayers are still being asked to foot enormous security
• 46:19
  Speaker 15: bills for this guy. Canadians are entitled to ask why
• 46:22
  Speaker 15: Harry chose a different life. That's his rate, but taxpayers
• 46:26
  Speaker 15: shouldn't be expected to subsidize every consequence of that choice.
• 46:31
  Speaker 3: And didn't he sign these mega mega deals rumored to
• 46:35
  Speaker 3: be around one hundred million dollars With the likes of
• 46:38
  Speaker 3: Spotify and Netflix. Surely he can pay for his own
• 46:42
  Speaker 3: private security. You would not think taxpayers should be footing
• 46:45
  Speaker 3: the bill there. But let's talk a bit more about
• 46:48
  Speaker 3: money and Prince Harry, because he's among celebrities being pursued
• 46:52
  Speaker 3: for legal costs in their failed privacy claims against The
• 46:56
  Speaker 3: Daily Mail. The celebrities have legal insurance covering sixteen point
• 47:01
  Speaker 3: two million pounds, but they're being asked to pay around
• 47:05
  Speaker 3: thirty four and a half million pounds of legal costs Kinsey,
• 47:10
  Speaker 3: that is a huge amount. I'm not sure exactly how
• 47:13
  Speaker 3: much of that is assigned to Harry, but I can't
• 47:15
  Speaker 3: imagine Megan will be very happy about it.
• 47:20
  Speaker 15: I wonder if he's going to have to flips and
• 47:22
  Speaker 15: burgers or join OnlyFans. I'm concerned for him based on
• 47:26
  Speaker 15: these numbers, but he's built, you know, a total reputation
• 47:30
  Speaker 15: for litigating first and asking questions later. Lawsuits aren't just
• 47:34
  Speaker 15: expensive for defendants, they're expensive for the plaintiffs when they lose.
• 47:38
  Speaker 15: If Megan Markel isn't thrilled today, I wouldn't blame her.
• 47:41
  Speaker 15: I mean, that's a painful financial headline for any household.
• 47:46
  Speaker 3: And I don't think there's going to be too many
• 47:49
  Speaker 3: more mega deals with the likes of Spotify and Netflix
• 47:53
  Speaker 3: in their future because those products did not turn out
• 47:56
  Speaker 3: so well. What they've produced certainly hasn't justified the investment
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: in them. Now, before you go, I want to play
• 48:02
  Speaker 3: this awkward footage during Asher's concert where he stopped a
• 48:07
  Speaker 3: steamy lap dance and kicked the girl off stage because
• 48:11
  Speaker 3: she wasn't into it. Oh it's funny, kids, And she
• 48:30
  Speaker 3: did seem to be recoiling as he was leading into her,
• 48:34
  Speaker 3: But she may have had a man in the audience.
• 48:37
  Speaker 3: He's there topless gyrating in front of her. Maybe she's
• 48:42
  Speaker 3: just being respectful to her husband or boyfriend.
• 48:45
  Speaker 15: Well, she said I was actually there to see Chris Brown,
• 48:48
  Speaker 15: which insulted Usher even more. Let me just tell you personally,
• 48:51
  Speaker 15: I've never I know, personally, I've never completely gotten passed
• 48:56
  Speaker 15: the herpes lawsuits. Even though those cases were settled confident
• 49:00
  Speaker 15: actually years ago, they undeniably affected his public image. And
• 49:04
  Speaker 15: if someone was grinding on me and I knew they'd
• 49:07
  Speaker 15: settle a herpes lawsuit or two, I'd also act a
• 49:10
  Speaker 15: little perturbed. If I'm being honest with you, I would
• 49:12
  Speaker 15: be a little concerned.
• 49:15
  Speaker 3: That would be a very creative way of getting herpes,
• 49:19
  Speaker 3: wouldn't it. How did you get herpes off from Ussia
• 49:21
  Speaker 3: on stage in front of twenty five thousand people. Yeah,
• 49:25
  Speaker 3: that's I did not even consider that. But well, said
• 49:28
  Speaker 3: Kinzi's Gofield.
• 49:29
  Speaker 11: Thank you.
• 49:30
  Speaker 3: You always bring us. You always bring us things that
• 49:32
  Speaker 3: we have no idea about, and that was something I
• 49:35
  Speaker 3: had no idea about. That's all the time we have, Folks,
• 49:38
  Speaker 3: don't go anywhere. Newsnight is up next.
