Speaker 1: On scorn US Australia.
0:05
Speaker 2: This is the reader Panecky Show.
0:09
Speaker 3: Good evening and welcome to the Riata Panicky Show. We've
0:12
Speaker 3: got a packed program for you tonight. I'll speak with
0:15
Speaker 3: the female Victorian MP assaulted by leftist activists as she
0:19
Speaker 3: attended a women's rights rally. Over the weekend, Stephen Miles
0:24
Speaker 3: causes uproar in the Queensland Parliament over comments described as
0:29
Speaker 3: offensive and reprehensible. Female footballers leaving the sport due to
0:34
Speaker 3: injury concerns from playing against men identifying as women. We'll
0:39
Speaker 3: have all the gas lighting you can handle from the
0:42
Speaker 3: Democrats National Convention with Josh Hammer. All the latest local
0:47
Speaker 3: and international news. We cover it all and we never
0:50
Speaker 3: forget left He's losing it.
1:04
Speaker 4: Over time.
1:05
Speaker 3: Joining me now is Sky News contributor Gary Hardgrave. Gary,
1:10
Speaker 3: Let's start with the Gaza visa saga. Australia is one
1:15
Speaker 3: of the most generous countries in the world when it comes.
1:18
Speaker 5: To issuing visas for Palestinians, with nearly.
1:20
Speaker 3: Three thousand approved for Gazans since October seven. The Australian
1:26
Speaker 3: also reveals this far exceeds the numbers accepted by other
1:31
Speaker 3: developed countries. Including the likes of New Zealand, the UK Canada.
1:36
Speaker 3: The UK has only issued one hundred and sixty eight
1:39
Speaker 3: protection visas, New Zealand just over one hundred and fifty
1:43
Speaker 3: and Canada just under three hundred. So far, they've talked
1:47
Speaker 3: about approving a lot more. The Albertezer government is now
1:51
Speaker 3: considering gary granting permanent residency to up to fifteen hundred
1:57
Speaker 3: Gazans who already in the country on these temporary visas.
2:03
Speaker 1: We have always been generous and we're really amongst the
2:06
Speaker 1: first to answer the call. But that's what we do.
2:09
Speaker 1: Is one of the world's oldest continuous democracies. But we
2:12
Speaker 1: are really Anybody who says that Peter Dutton's acting in
2:15
Speaker 1: a racist way is not themselves acting in the best
2:19
Speaker 1: Centrists of Australia. We've always decided the terms under which
2:24
Speaker 1: they come and who will come to Australia. We've always
2:26
Speaker 1: decided that we shouldn't stop now and we cannot allow
2:29
Speaker 1: people who are beholden to her maass for being here
2:34
Speaker 1: to be amongst us. It's real simple, and I don't
2:37
Speaker 1: think anybody should doubt that what Peter Dunton is saying
2:40
Speaker 1: is one hundred percent correct to.
2:42
Speaker 3: Us throw the racist tag around, as we have seen
2:46
Speaker 3: even parliamentarians do.
2:49
Speaker 5: All he does is.
2:51
Speaker 3: Put Peter Dunton in a better light, I think in
2:54
Speaker 3: the eyes of the Australian people, because they can see
2:57
Speaker 3: these attacks are unfair.
2:59
Speaker 5: No one genuinely believes he's racist.
3:02
Speaker 3: And when you malign someone with that tag when they're
3:06
Speaker 3: not racist, when they're not behaving in a racist manner,
3:10
Speaker 3: I think you just have sympathy for them. And this
3:13
Speaker 3: is very solid ground for the coalition. Surely Labor do
3:18
Speaker 3: not want to continue having a battle on this issue
3:22
Speaker 3: when they know the majority of the country is going
3:25
Speaker 3: to be siding with a coalition when it comes to
3:28
Speaker 3: this topic.
3:30
Speaker 1: Look Gretta as an old saying. Essentially, it says that
3:33
Speaker 1: when you're telling the truth, you're never afraid to answer
3:36
Speaker 1: questions about what you say. When you're telling lies, you
3:38
Speaker 1: just want to dissemble, You want to point to somebody else.
3:41
Speaker 1: That's what's going on. I mean, I've found a breathtaking
3:43
Speaker 1: I ended the Parliament in ninety six on the same
3:46
Speaker 1: day that Anthony Albanizi did, and he was seen as
3:49
Speaker 1: a splitist to somebody who was never going to go anywhere.
3:52
Speaker 1: When the New South Wales Right was running the Labor Party,
3:56
Speaker 1: they said he's gone nowhere. He's just a troublemaker. He
3:59
Speaker 1: likes to divide people up and sort of well with
4:01
Speaker 1: pre Stephen Bradbury. You know, Stephen Bradbury is way into
4:04
Speaker 1: important positions. It took him forever to get on the
4:07
Speaker 1: front bench because of all of that. Now he's running
4:09
Speaker 1: around saying well, I'm not a divider. He's the divider.
4:13
Speaker 1: I mean, Heaven's above albow is creating the schism, this problem,
4:18
Speaker 1: this calamity. We just need rules and it doesn't matter
4:21
Speaker 1: whether what the skin color is, what the religion is.
4:24
Speaker 1: If people are willing to come to Australia and trade
4:26
Speaker 1: up to our values, then by all means they can come.
4:30
Speaker 1: And most Australians are on that page. And I think
4:33
Speaker 1: Peter Dunton summed it up perfectly. The teals they've gone
4:36
Speaker 1: along for the ride. I don't get it now.
4:38
Speaker 3: The Australian has obtained evidence that Health Minister Mark Butler
4:43
Speaker 3: was warned months ago that palliative care patients were in
4:48
Speaker 3: danger of losing access to vital pain medicines, particularly liquid morphine.
4:54
Speaker 5: And despite these warnings. The country is now grappling.
4:57
Speaker 3: With severe shortages include morphine and incredibly ivy fluids. This
5:05
Speaker 3: is a significant public health policy failure.
5:08
Speaker 5: Gary, I just cannot believe.
5:10
Speaker 3: A first world country would have shortages in these areas.
5:17
Speaker 4: Yeah.
5:17
Speaker 1: Look the saline drip which is put in for people
5:21
Speaker 1: during the times of all sorts of procedures. The morphine drip,
5:25
Speaker 1: which is in fact used in pallative care. You know,
5:28
Speaker 1: people at the end of their life and they manage
5:30
Speaker 1: the pain on the way out. They're all in short supply.
5:34
Speaker 1: I mean the biggest drip therefore in medicine now is
5:36
Speaker 1: Mark Butler, it seems because I think he should take
5:40
Speaker 1: some huge blame for this, because this bloke was warned,
5:43
Speaker 1: He was warned about these two shortages of these two
5:46
Speaker 1: key elements. I'm really worried about the basics not getting
5:50
Speaker 1: done right by this government. They've muffed up the Immigration department.
5:53
Speaker 1: They can't make a decision, the Health Department can't make
5:56
Speaker 1: a decision. They've really what Tanya Plebasek is doing the
6:00
Speaker 1: mining sector. I mean there's a part of here in
6:02
Speaker 1: southeast Queensland where I am where one stroke of a
6:05
Speaker 1: pen killed off a proposal to improve harbor facility on
6:10
Speaker 1: the Morton Bay fallshoores in Brisbane's southeast and it's an
6:14
Speaker 1: eleven billion dollar hit to the local economy as a
6:17
Speaker 1: result of Tanya plversx intervention. Then you've got this gold mines.
6:20
Speaker 1: She said no to the biggest sovereign risks in Australia.
6:24
Speaker 1: Now are ministers in this dreadful government that we're.
6:27
Speaker 3: Suffering now staying in Queensland. Premier Stephen miles A sensationally
6:33
Speaker 3: claimed the l ANDPS Deputy leader wants to see construction
6:37
Speaker 3: workers die. He has apologized for these comments, but just
6:43
Speaker 3: an incredible thing for a premier to say.
6:46
Speaker 6: We will take appropriate measures to clean up the sief
6:49
Speaker 6: me EU and.
6:50
Speaker 7: We will do that this week.
6:52
Speaker 6: But what we will not do is make Queensland workplaces
6:56
Speaker 6: less safe. The Member for Kawana might want to see
7:00
Speaker 6: construction workers die, but on this side of the house
7:04
Speaker 6: we do not.
7:06
Speaker 3: Garry is he rattled? What's the issue? Because it is
7:11
Speaker 3: He's an experienced campaigner. It is the sort of thing
7:15
Speaker 3: you would not expect a leader to say, and then
7:18
Speaker 3: having to obviously apologize.
7:21
Speaker 5: What's happening up there?
7:24
Speaker 1: Well, look, it's the sort of robust language. He dropped
7:28
Speaker 1: the a full little word that I never use in
7:30
Speaker 1: describing Scott Morrison at one stage, so certainly he implied
7:35
Speaker 1: around it at a Labor Day rally a couple of
7:37
Speaker 1: years back. Look, this is a bloke who's said all
7:40
Speaker 1: of this purely for the boys in the band. He
7:43
Speaker 1: said this for the blokes in the CFMEU and the
7:46
Speaker 1: whole idea. The CFMU is a federally registered organization. The
7:50
Speaker 1: state comment can't do much about it anyway. But what
7:53
Speaker 1: they don't need is administration. They need abolition because administration
7:57
Speaker 1: just simply keeps the same old people, but they're not
8:00
Speaker 1: handling the money anymore. And this bloke is just simply
8:04
Speaker 1: trying to look like he's doing something, talking in a
8:06
Speaker 1: fun way, you know, a couple of funny lines for
8:09
Speaker 1: the blokes in the band, But there is no decent
8:11
Speaker 1: person wants anyone to be unsafe and read. You know,
8:14
Speaker 1: I'm a qualified company director. Amongst other things, we want
8:18
Speaker 1: to have profitable companies, but moreover we want safe workplaces.
8:22
Speaker 1: And to suggest that Jared Blay, the deputy leader, would
8:25
Speaker 1: want anything else other than that, he's just outrageous. But look,
8:29
Speaker 1: you know Miles opened as yab he said this, he's
8:32
Speaker 1: got a doctorate in building union membership, and I guess
8:35
Speaker 1: he's just doing another research paper. It's pretty low, pretty
8:39
Speaker 1: low stuff, and I don't think you'll live this stay it.
8:42
Speaker 3: Is now, let's finish off with Victoria, and this is
8:47
Speaker 3: news that's not going to surprise too many people, not
8:49
Speaker 3: anyone who's got a functioning brain anyway. A leading credit
8:53
Speaker 3: agency has concluded that labors draconian COVID lockdowns are to
8:59
Speaker 3: blame for.
8:59
Speaker 5: The die financial position.
9:01
Speaker 3: Who could have thought that Victoria does have the biggest
9:04
Speaker 3: debt of any state by some margin, and Standard and
9:08
Speaker 3: Pauser Director of Government Ratings Anthony Walker, said, there was
9:12
Speaker 3: a kind of a view in Victoria that the government
9:14
Speaker 3: didn't really care about the financial economic costs. They just
9:18
Speaker 3: wanted to get the health outcomes correct. Well, that came
9:21
Speaker 3: at a massive fiscal shock and they're still.
9:24
Speaker 5: Trying to recover from that. And Gary, we didn't even
9:27
Speaker 5: get the health outcomes right. I mean, not only were
9:29
Speaker 5: there massive harms.
9:32
Speaker 3: Health harms because of lockdowns, but Victoria had the worst
9:36
Speaker 3: COVID results in the country. Look at any per capita measure,
9:42
Speaker 3: Victoria was the worst and now we've got the debt
9:46
Speaker 3: crisis to boot.
9:49
Speaker 8: Yeah.
9:50
Speaker 1: P Capita, I think probably the worst in the world. Too,
9:52
Speaker 1: longest lockdown anywhere in the world.
9:53
Speaker 5: Queensland.
9:54
Speaker 1: P Capita has a higher level of debt than Victoria.
9:57
Speaker 1: But Victoria is no model. It's a model for a
10:00
Speaker 1: basket case. It's the place to flee, and it used
10:04
Speaker 1: to be the place to it's now the place to flee.
10:06
Speaker 1: And look, I think what the people who've put this
10:09
Speaker 1: statement out now are putting out a new statement late
10:11
Speaker 1: this afternoon is going to say today is Tuesday. I mean,
10:14
Speaker 1: it's self evident, isn't it that the lockdown has a
10:17
Speaker 1: long lasting and bad effect on Victoria's circumstance. No, it's
10:22
Speaker 1: not a happy time and I feel sorry for everyday victorians.
10:28
Speaker 5: Gary hal Great, thank you so much for your time
10:29
Speaker 5: this evening.
10:31
Speaker 3: Joining me now as senior reporter with Sky News, Caroline Markers. Carolina,
10:37
Speaker 3: you wrote an exclusive story today about how some female
10:40
Speaker 3: Aussie rules players are leaving the sport because of open
10:45
Speaker 3: and inclusive policies which allow biological males to compete in
10:51
Speaker 3: women's matches.
10:52
Speaker 5: Tell me about this, Well.
10:54
Speaker 9: That's right, Rito, there seems to be a completely two
10:57
Speaker 9: tiered system when it comes to the AFL. As your
11:00
Speaker 9: viewers may be aware at the moment, the aflw elite
11:04
Speaker 9: and state competitions do not allow trans athletes to compete
11:09
Speaker 9: with women and against women unless they have undergone rigorous
11:14
Speaker 9: testosterone and physical testing. Some of women's rights advocates say
11:18
Speaker 9: this doesn't go far enough, but regardless, that's their policy
11:21
Speaker 9: for lead and state level. But when it comes to
11:23
Speaker 9: community level footy, which can include sixteen year old girls
11:28
Speaker 9: or women in their fifties and anything in between, it
11:31
Speaker 9: seems there is a complete open door policy. You basically
11:35
Speaker 9: just have to identify as a woman, use the right pronouns,
11:38
Speaker 9: and you're allowed to throw on a jersey and play
11:41
Speaker 9: against women. Now, a number of women have come out
11:44
Speaker 9: and spoken with us Today on Sky News about their
11:48
Speaker 9: fears for safety and fairness of the game and having
11:53
Speaker 9: to play against biological males. They include these critics the
11:58
Speaker 9: women who start the Master's competition for older women women
12:04
Speaker 9: over thirty five back in twenty eighteen. She says she's
12:07
Speaker 9: now seeing women self fixedclude and dropping out from the
12:11
Speaker 9: competition because they don't want to play against trans women.
12:15
Speaker 9: Biological males who have an obvious physical advantage against them
12:19
Speaker 9: over fears for their safety and for fairness. But the
12:22
Speaker 9: AFL is standing by its policy. It's pretty clear it's policy.
12:27
Speaker 9: It says it has different priorities when it comes to
12:30
Speaker 9: the elite and community levels. It says the elite level
12:34
Speaker 9: has an increased emphasis on competitive fairness and at community
12:38
Speaker 9: levels it's all about social inclusion and using the right pronouns.
12:42
Speaker 5: It seems.
12:45
Speaker 3: It is so utterly absurd, but completely on brand for
12:49
Speaker 3: the AFL. They are the wokest sporting league in the
12:53
Speaker 3: country and they're all pretty woke, so if they're the wokest,
12:56
Speaker 3: you know what we're talking about. But despite that, right
13:00
Speaker 3: at AFLW level, the highest levels of female football, we're
13:05
Speaker 3: not seeing these trans players. But it's okay for the
13:09
Speaker 3: lesser leagues. For the community clubs, it seems to be, well,
13:13
Speaker 3: they're not really competitive. It's all just about participation. But
13:16
Speaker 3: there's a reason why you've got men's and women's categories
13:20
Speaker 3: and nothing is stopping those who are male bodied but
13:24
Speaker 3: identify as women participating. But they just have to participate
13:28
Speaker 3: in the men's competition. It seems again astonishing to me
13:33
Speaker 3: for a league that campaigns about women's rights and empowering
13:38
Speaker 3: women and respecting women, that they're ignoring these women who
13:42
Speaker 3: are saying women are walking away from the sport because
13:46
Speaker 3: they don't feel safe.
13:48
Speaker 10: Yeah.
13:48
Speaker 9: Absolutely, And I mean the irony is that at a
13:51
Speaker 9: community level, in particular when it comes to these older women,
13:54
Speaker 9: who it must be said, they didn't get a chance
13:57
Speaker 9: to play Women's footing when they were young. There was
13:59
Speaker 9: no AFLW around when they were growing up. But they
14:03
Speaker 9: only get to play the sport that they love and
14:06
Speaker 9: for many of them have been obsessed with their entire
14:08
Speaker 9: lives now maybe aged in their thirties, forties, fifties, and
14:13
Speaker 9: yet they're expected to put their bodies at risk for this,
14:16
Speaker 9: and their bodies are less conditioned, they're older, they're softer,
14:19
Speaker 9: as they described to me, so they're even more prone
14:22
Speaker 9: to injury than perhaps the elite women. So the policy
14:28
Speaker 9: should even potentially be stricter when it comes to their competitions,
14:33
Speaker 9: they argue. I mean it's surprisingly perhaps, reader. I spoke
14:37
Speaker 9: to two trans athletes for the story, and they agreed
14:41
Speaker 9: that this policy was not fair. I mean, many people
14:43
Speaker 9: are afraid to speak out, and I spoke to dozens
14:46
Speaker 9: of people for the story, most of whom did not
14:48
Speaker 9: want to go on camera or be named because there's
14:50
Speaker 9: such a fear of talking and being labeled a transphobe.
14:54
Speaker 9: But these trans athletes said no, they agree. It's not
14:57
Speaker 9: fair to be pitting women against biological males at this
15:01
Speaker 9: community level. It's just unfair and it puts them at
15:06
Speaker 9: risk of injury.
15:09
Speaker 3: Absolutely, and we've seen that in other football codes. We've
15:13
Speaker 3: talked about it on this program, particularly with soccer in
15:16
Speaker 3: this country again amateur level, and for younger players as well.
15:22
Speaker 3: I feel a bit old when you talk about veterans
15:24
Speaker 3: and older players and he's.
15:25
Speaker 5: Talking about thirty five plus. Carol, Please trigger now, let's
15:32
Speaker 5: go to our story. That's all too familiar.
15:35
Speaker 3: The Herald son is talking about youth crime again, and
15:38
Speaker 3: this one shocked a few people because we've got here
15:42
Speaker 3: in this state a twelve year old child, a twelve
15:45
Speaker 3: year old girl who's among Victoria's worst youth offenders implicated
15:51
Speaker 3: in ten aggravated burglaries involving stolen cars over just a
15:56
Speaker 3: twelve month period, and teenage girls Cara are increasingly involved
16:00
Speaker 3: in serious crime like carthets, high speed chases and Victoria
16:06
Speaker 3: Police is a Operation Trinity focused on youth crime. They're
16:11
Speaker 3: reporting that fifteen percent of the people of interest they
16:15
Speaker 3: monitor are girls, with sixty four percent.
16:18
Speaker 5: Of them being under seventeen. This is a real worry.
16:23
Speaker 3: This is an area where we do not want to
16:25
Speaker 3: have any sort of parity. And to see a girl
16:27
Speaker 3: who's only twelve years old implicated in ten aggravated burglaries, that's.
16:33
Speaker 9: Just shocking it is, and it really illustrates how out
16:37
Speaker 9: of control, how horrific this youth crime crisis has become,
16:43
Speaker 9: especially in the state of Victoria. I mean, at the
16:45
Speaker 9: age of twelve, I think I was still playing with
16:48
Speaker 9: Barbie dolls.
16:48
Speaker 5: What are these girls as.
16:50
Speaker 9: Young as they doing on the streets in the middle
16:53
Speaker 9: of the night, stealing cars, being part of these gangs
16:57
Speaker 9: mostly boys, and participating in the type of offending. And
17:02
Speaker 9: the sad part is this twelve year old goal isn't alone.
17:04
Speaker 9: She's one of two girls in the top twenty list
17:08
Speaker 9: of worst youth offenders in Victoria. They've been a fate
17:12
Speaker 9: of these sorts of crimes. Just recently, there was a
17:16
Speaker 9: case involving two teenage girls who were involved in stealing
17:20
Speaker 9: a car that crashed and killed a twenty eight year
17:24
Speaker 9: old fan. One academic that was quoted in this piece
17:29
Speaker 9: says that while the rate of crime is actually going
17:31
Speaker 9: down amongst young males, it's the opposite for females, and
17:36
Speaker 9: police are warning that these girls can often find themselves
17:41
Speaker 9: the victim of crimes themselves getting involved in these groups.
17:45
Speaker 9: But you've got a question, where are the families when
17:48
Speaker 9: it comes to this, Where are their parents? How are
17:50
Speaker 9: they ending up on the street in the middle of
17:52
Speaker 9: the night, as I say, that's when these crimes often happen.
17:56
Speaker 9: And what is the justice system really doing about this?
18:00
Speaker 9: Because most often they'll end up with a slap on
18:04
Speaker 9: the wrist and they're out of no jail time or
18:09
Speaker 9: very little jail time, and they're out offending again, these
18:13
Speaker 9: youth offenders. So I think that has a lot to answer.
18:16
Speaker 5: For as well.
18:18
Speaker 3: Absolutely, and residents in Orange in New South Wales are
18:22
Speaker 3: also grappling with a youth crime crisis. Shocking pictures coming
18:26
Speaker 3: out of there with the locals on eage as a
18:29
Speaker 3: number of cars have been torched, and it seems Carol,
18:33
Speaker 3: the young offenders don't really fear the police or the
18:37
Speaker 3: courts very much. There seems to be a perception that
18:40
Speaker 3: if they are court they'll be back out on the
18:42
Speaker 3: streets in no time.
18:44
Speaker 9: Yeah, well, why would you fear the courts when they
18:46
Speaker 9: take this wet lettus Leaf approach to justice in youth crime.
18:52
Speaker 9: As one local put it, these are board kids who
18:56
Speaker 9: are reportedly committing these offenses and when they get their
18:59
Speaker 9: slap on the rest from the courts, they're just straight
19:01
Speaker 9: back out on the street. It's doing more of the same.
19:03
Speaker 11: You know.
19:04
Speaker 9: Orange is a beautiful country New South Wales town. It's
19:07
Speaker 9: well known for its local produce and top restaurants, but
19:10
Speaker 9: now at risks becoming as known for burnt out cars
19:14
Speaker 9: on the street making a semi regular appearance apparently over
19:18
Speaker 9: the past six years. And that would be a real shame.
19:23
Speaker 5: Oh. Absolutely.
19:24
Speaker 3: And before you go, I know you have a follow
19:27
Speaker 3: up on a story you broke about a senior leader
19:31
Speaker 3: of consulting giant PwC. They were exposed for their anti
19:36
Speaker 3: Israel conspiracy the posts that that shared on social media
19:41
Speaker 3: and they have now let's a firm.
19:44
Speaker 9: Yeah, so this senior leader, Jim Krystal Dulis, he was
19:47
Speaker 9: based in Melbourne and he has left the firm. I
19:51
Speaker 9: can reveal that followed the reporting that I did recently,
19:55
Speaker 9: exposing hundreds of tweets that he made since October seven,
19:59
Speaker 9: He retweeted posts claiming that the mass rapes of Israeli
20:03
Speaker 9: women were a hoax, that Israeli girls who'd been kidnapped
20:07
Speaker 9: were treated better than Palestinian prisoners. He even tweeted Palestinian
20:13
Speaker 9: terrorist propaganda showing Israeli soldiers being shoped at by snipers purportedly,
20:19
Speaker 9: so this was very virulent posting. They were criticized at
20:25
Speaker 9: the time for not taking a strong enough response from
20:28
Speaker 9: Jewish community leaders. They stood by their executive at the time,
20:32
Speaker 9: but it seems they have very quietly parted ways with
20:35
Speaker 9: him now.
20:37
Speaker 5: Caroline Marcus, thank you so much for your time. This
20:39
Speaker 5: evening pleasure still to come.
20:42
Speaker 3: Lefties Losing It and Josh Hammer and all the ugliness
20:46
Speaker 3: inside and outside the Democrats' National Convention in Chicago, welcome back.
21:00
Speaker 3: Now It's time for lefties losing it and the Democrats
21:04
Speaker 3: National Convention has started and shops are boarded up, police
21:08
Speaker 3: are out in force, but the real lunacy is inside
21:12
Speaker 3: the venue. The Democrats have announced on their official dem
21:15
Speaker 3: Convention TikTok page that these content creators.
21:20
Speaker 5: Will be present.
21:22
Speaker 7: Jeffrey Marsh, Bye Bias, and I have.
21:24
Speaker 8: Some exciting, exciting news for the first time over the
21:29
Speaker 8: Democratic National Convention is credential and content creators.
21:32
Speaker 7: Guess now I'm the one offul in our guest. I'll
21:35
Speaker 7: be in Chicago covering convention, inside.
21:37
Speaker 10: The United Center and all over the city.
21:40
Speaker 5: Oh, some familiar faces there.
21:42
Speaker 3: Let's have a look at a couple of these select
21:46
Speaker 3: podcasters content creators the Democrats are promoting in their clip.
21:51
Speaker 5: This is Jeffrey Marsh. I'm sure you'll remember him, Hi, Love.
21:55
Speaker 11: Here are three ways to disrespect your elders. So if
22:00
Speaker 11: you're dealing with a narcissistic parent or a bullying boss
22:03
Speaker 11: at work, you need to one play innocent.
22:07
Speaker 10: Take it from someone who knows they will only come
22:12
Speaker 10: after you when you are powerful, When you are triggering
22:17
Speaker 10: them and upsetting them. It is because of your power,
22:22
Speaker 10: and that's when they want to stop you.
22:24
Speaker 4: Is JK.
22:25
Speaker 8: Rowling part of a global hate group? The United Nations said, Yes,
22:31
Speaker 8: what do taxidermists do for work.
22:37
Speaker 12: Stuff?
22:45
Speaker 3: I don't even understand that last one taxidermy?
22:48
Speaker 5: What's he suggesting?
22:50
Speaker 3: They're out of the tens of thousands of content creators.
22:54
Speaker 3: That's who they want to have at the DNC.
22:56
Speaker 5: And I saw in that clip this duo.
22:59
Speaker 13: The kicker for the Kansas City Chiefs, who has got
23:03
Speaker 13: to be the most sexist white supremacist I have ever
23:10
Speaker 13: seen in my life. I forget that this type of
23:13
Speaker 13: person exists everywhere, and this is Evangelical Christianity. What he
23:19
Speaker 13: said is so disrespectful, so to such a large portion
23:24
Speaker 13: of women, and it's so dismissive. I just I hope
23:28
Speaker 13: that he is canceled to hell and back. And I
23:32
Speaker 13: feel so sorry that his wife has to sleep with him.
23:36
Speaker 3: Dear, I'm glad I'm not in Chicago, because I know
23:40
Speaker 3: how I'd cope with this sort.
23:42
Speaker 5: Of gas lighting.
23:43
Speaker 3: This next rant is pure hootspop, pure projection, where you
23:48
Speaker 3: accuse your opponents of doing something you yourself are guilty of.
23:53
Speaker 14: Donald Trump would be able to weaponize the Department of
23:57
Speaker 14: Justice to go after his police opponents. He could even
24:02
Speaker 14: turn the FBI into his own personal police force. That
24:10
Speaker 14: is not how it works in America, That's how it
24:19
Speaker 14: works in dictatorships.
24:22
Speaker 3: Wow wow, wow, that is weapon great hoot spa ride there,
24:27
Speaker 3: and also the Convention. There are celebrities there and has
24:30
Speaker 3: beens like Mark Hamill. Here is at a DNC welcome party.
24:35
Speaker 2: There's strong and Jamaica. Go for it yourself, all right.
24:48
Speaker 3: Well that's a charming message for around half the country.
24:52
Speaker 5: Mark.
24:53
Speaker 3: Now let's have a look at some of the charming
24:55
Speaker 3: lefties or causing mayhem in Chicago. Here they yell racist
25:00
Speaker 3: abuse and get in the face of police officers trying
25:04
Speaker 3: to do their job.
25:07
Speaker 12: Between and then another white dude right down. That's why,
25:11
Speaker 12: that's why, so very much job, give.
25:33
Speaker 7: Us your job, God, God, you love soldier, get a.
25:39
Speaker 11: Job and you have.
25:42
Speaker 3: So There you have a woman telling a cop she
25:46
Speaker 3: hopes he has nightmares, while what looks like a dude
25:49
Speaker 3: pretending to be a woman in a CAFEA don't try
25:52
Speaker 3: that in Gaza tells the police officer to get a
25:55
Speaker 3: real job and calls himpathetic and a bunch of other
25:58
Speaker 3: stuff I can't repeat here.
26:01
Speaker 5: That's lefties losing it.
26:03
Speaker 3: Now, plenty more lefties content with my next guest. And
26:08
Speaker 3: you might remember the Republican National Convention started with a
26:11
Speaker 3: prayer for Israel and the hostages. The DNC, the Democrats
26:16
Speaker 3: National Convention began with.
26:18
Speaker 5: A land acknowledgment, and we also had this.
26:24
Speaker 15: My name, my name in the Ojibwe language is giji
26:30
Speaker 15: weiwuedam Ukwe or in English speaks with a clear.
26:35
Speaker 5: And loud voice. Woman.
26:38
Speaker 15: I'm a member of the White Earth Nation and my
26:41
Speaker 15: family is the Wolf Clan, and the role of our
26:45
Speaker 15: plan is to ensure that we never leave anyone behind.
26:49
Speaker 15: That's why I am supporting Kamala Harris and Tim Walls
26:53
Speaker 15: to be the next president and.
26:55
Speaker 14: Vice president of the United States.
26:59
Speaker 3: That was Peggy Flanagan, the Minnesota Lieutenant Governor. Joining me
27:04
Speaker 3: now is senior editor at Large of Newsweek and Article
27:08
Speaker 3: three Projects Senior Council Josh Hammer. Josh, the DNC is
27:14
Speaker 3: going to be a vastly different vibe than the r
27:18
Speaker 3: and say, we've already seen that on day one, and
27:21
Speaker 3: it's also evident in the streets of Chicago.
27:24
Speaker 5: It's not just inside the venue.
27:26
Speaker 3: Outside that has been all sorts of unrest and violence.
27:33
Speaker 16: Yeah, you know, Rita, it's something of a freak show
27:36
Speaker 16: combined with a jihadi rally. I mean, that is probably
27:40
Speaker 16: the best way that I can try to summarize the
27:43
Speaker 16: cultic devotion to Satanism. Really that is actually going on
27:47
Speaker 16: right now at the DNC in Chicago. I'm not even exaggerating.
27:49
Speaker 16: Actually there is a local Planned Parenthood chapter that is
27:53
Speaker 16: sending mobile vans to outside of the arena the United
27:56
Speaker 16: Center offering on demand abortions for whoever wants that. Now,
28:00
Speaker 16: no matter what you might think on that issue, the
28:02
Speaker 16: idea that that a national political convention, you could have
28:08
Speaker 16: just a line around the corner signing up for a
28:10
Speaker 16: free abortion, like you're getting like like an ice cream Sunday,
28:14
Speaker 16: like a like a cone of chocolate with a little
28:16
Speaker 16: bit of a strawberry or vanilla swirl. I mean, I mean,
28:19
Speaker 16: it's just it's just loathsome I words fail to describe
28:23
Speaker 16: really what is happening right there. You know, just a
28:26
Speaker 16: few minutes ago here in the United States, I was
28:28
Speaker 16: watching actually the convention and they cut to to Kamala
28:31
Speaker 16: Harris's husband, Doug em Hoff, you know, his booth there
28:34
Speaker 16: inside of the arena. Doug m Hoff's daughter, Ella m Hoff.
28:38
Speaker 16: You know, I think that she wished that she were
28:40
Speaker 16: outside with the pro Godz of pro Hamas protesters. Ella
28:43
Speaker 16: m Hoff, Doug m Hoff's daughter is out there. She's
28:46
Speaker 16: been fundraising for Gaza, she's been fundraising for Hamas. The
28:49
Speaker 16: only question that I have right now, Rita is not
28:51
Speaker 16: what the tens are borderline hundreds of thousands of pro
28:54
Speaker 16: Hamas jihadis outside of the arena are going to do
28:56
Speaker 16: what I waited to see this week? Is there going
28:58
Speaker 16: to be a disruption waving that has balah Hamas flies.
29:01
Speaker 7: When not inside of the arena itself?
29:04
Speaker 16: And if that happens, is anyone here in the United
29:06
Speaker 16: States is going to have the temerity to cover it
29:08
Speaker 16: other than your typical conservative network TVs, well, CNN, will MSNBC, ABSCBC.
29:14
Speaker 16: Will they actually show that if it happens.
29:16
Speaker 7: I don't know.
29:17
Speaker 16: But what I know right now is that in the DNC,
29:20
Speaker 16: I am watching the political party and a political movement
29:22
Speaker 16: the American left that simply does not actually love the
29:26
Speaker 16: country anymore. And that was not always true of the
29:28
Speaker 16: Democratic Party. Once upon a time, the Democratic Party was
29:31
Speaker 16: still patriotic party of John F.
29:33
Speaker 7: Kennedy.
29:33
Speaker 16: Really, even the Party of Bill Clinton back in the
29:35
Speaker 16: nineteen nineties, that was still a pro American, pro patriotic party.
29:39
Speaker 16: This current manifestation of the Democratic Party is not a
29:43
Speaker 16: pro Western civilization political party that is why you're seeing
29:47
Speaker 16: nonsense like this Peggy Flanagan person with the land acknowledgement.
29:50
Speaker 16: One final code that I will add to this rita.
29:53
Speaker 16: You know, it's really quite appalling. The copy editor of
29:56
Speaker 16: the DNC didn't do their job properly. The actual Democratic
30:00
Speaker 16: National Committee, their party platform, refers to Joe Biden's second
30:04
Speaker 16: term nineteen times on a quick control F word search
30:07
Speaker 16: that I did earlier today. They forgot to remove it
30:11
Speaker 16: nineteen times. I don't know if they have a second
30:13
Speaker 16: coup planned in as many months, but you know, I
30:17
Speaker 16: guess at a bare minimum, someone didn't do their copy heading.
30:22
Speaker 5: At a bare bare minimum.
30:24
Speaker 3: And yeah, you mentioned what's happening inside the venue, but outside,
30:29
Speaker 3: the far left protesters have descended on Chicago.
30:34
Speaker 5: It's ugly. There's chaos in the city.
30:38
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, give us your.
30:57
Speaker 3: Dear, and the activists have tried to break through police
31:01
Speaker 3: lines to storm the venue.
31:04
Speaker 5: Here's a Savannah Hernandez with a report and.
31:07
Speaker 17: I think I can see him of who got quite
31:09
Speaker 17: a lil protesters and the police. And now there's rost hurricane.
31:15
Speaker 17: Had they retired to present the second line that's.
31:17
Speaker 12: Right behind me.
31:19
Speaker 17: So now please taborage is my bad present again this
31:22
Speaker 17: is day one.
31:23
Speaker 3: How did you, Josh, I don't recall this sort of
31:27
Speaker 3: violence and disorder in Milwaukee for the Republican National Convention.
31:33
Speaker 3: And can you imagine the media coverage if that sort
31:36
Speaker 3: of carry on was happening around the Republicans. But the
31:40
Speaker 3: Democrats seem to have this problem the left in general.
31:46
Speaker 7: Yeah, totally. Look, and you know, I personally have some
31:49
Speaker 7: knowledge here.
31:49
Speaker 16: So that clip that we just saw, the first clip
31:51
Speaker 16: there where they were on the street of Chicago, I
31:54
Speaker 16: lived actually maybe two or three blocks from where that was.
31:58
Speaker 16: I went to law school in Chicago, and I know
31:59
Speaker 16: that had the city extremely extremely well. I mean what
32:03
Speaker 16: has happened to the city of Chicago over the past
32:05
Speaker 16: decade is nothing short of tragic. I mean I live there.
32:08
Speaker 16: From twenty thirteen to twenty sixteen. It was not exactly
32:10
Speaker 16: a paradise when it comes to crime and law and order.
32:14
Speaker 16: But from then compared to now, it is truly like
32:16
Speaker 16: night and day. The current mayor, Brandon Johnson, makes his predecessor,
32:20
Speaker 16: Lori Leightfoot look positively conservative, and she was a leftist
32:23
Speaker 16: nutshob herself. The current guy is calling in all the
32:26
Speaker 16: pro hamas troops. They are not enforcing the law there
32:28
Speaker 16: in Chicago at all whatsoever. By the way, there was
32:32
Speaker 16: a small group here called the IAC, the Israeli American Council.
32:36
Speaker 16: They've tried to get their own permits to essentially counter
32:39
Speaker 16: protest the pro Hamas, the pro Gihati crowd, the Israeli,
32:43
Speaker 16: the pro hostage folks. They've had their permits denied. Funny,
32:47
Speaker 16: you might ask, I mean, it's the same people in
32:49
Speaker 16: the Chicago City Hall who are granting all these permits
32:52
Speaker 16: to the pro Hamas crowd and are not giving out
32:54
Speaker 16: permits to the pro Western civilization crowd. So I mean,
32:57
Speaker 16: it couldn't happen to a nicer city. To be honest
32:59
Speaker 16: with you, they really have asked for this. But to
33:01
Speaker 16: your point, Rita, of course, if this work to have
33:04
Speaker 16: happened at the RNC in Milwaukee, it would make all
33:07
Speaker 16: the headlines.
33:08
Speaker 7: And you know the irony is they say that it actually.
33:10
Speaker 16: Is the Republican Party, the Party of Donald Trump, that
33:13
Speaker 16: is the threat to democracy. They're the totalitarians, you know,
33:16
Speaker 16: They're the ones who are a threat to a constitutional
33:19
Speaker 16: order and all that we hold righteous and deer in
33:21
Speaker 16: this country to truth, justice, liberty in the American way
33:24
Speaker 16: and all that.
33:24
Speaker 7: I'm sorry.
33:25
Speaker 16: There is one political party here that has literally hundreds
33:29
Speaker 16: of thousands of people flying the flags of US recognize
33:32
Speaker 16: foreign terrorist organizations, and it is not the Republican Party.
33:35
Speaker 16: It is not the party of Donald Trump. So I
33:37
Speaker 16: guess we will see what happens this week. But again,
33:41
Speaker 16: what I'm really waiting to see is whether or not
33:43
Speaker 16: there's going to be an eruption, not just outside the arena,
33:45
Speaker 16: but inside the arena, because that could actually penetrate through
33:49
Speaker 16: this fog and actually I think reach independent voters if
33:51
Speaker 16: that does transpire.
33:55
Speaker 3: Now, Kamala is getting a dream run from the media,
33:58
Speaker 3: and it seems to be true in social media and
34:02
Speaker 3: even on x which is supposed to have community notes
34:06
Speaker 3: and these fact checks that happen in real time.
34:09
Speaker 5: I've noticed the official.
34:11
Speaker 3: Campaign account deliberately puts out disinformation things it knows to
34:16
Speaker 3: be untrue.
34:19
Speaker 5: I'll show you a little example here.
34:20
Speaker 3: This is a deceptively edited video without context.
34:24
Speaker 5: And it's to pretend that Donald Trump didn't know what
34:27
Speaker 5: state he was in.
34:29
Speaker 3: He didn't know whether it was in Pennsylvania or North Carolina.
34:32
Speaker 12: Have a look, now, would that be Okay, North Carolina.
34:34
Speaker 2: I don't think so, right.
34:36
Speaker 7: They want me to speak all day.
34:38
Speaker 3: And the Harris campaign were pointing out he's actually in Pennsylvania.
34:42
Speaker 3: He thinks he's in North Carolina, but Trump knew where
34:45
Speaker 3: he was. He was just acknowledging a group from North
34:49
Speaker 3: Carolina who he had referred to earlier, who go to
34:53
Speaker 3: a lot of his rallies.
34:54
Speaker 5: Have a look at the earlier comment. I have another group.
35:00
Speaker 4: From a place called North Carolina. Has anybody ever heard
35:04
Speaker 4: of that? We love North.
35:05
Speaker 1: Carolina, the beautiful ladies over there.
35:08
Speaker 3: Now, these are lies from the Kamala headquarters account regularly
35:14
Speaker 3: go viral, get millions of views without the fact checks
35:19
Speaker 3: or the community notes. They're not appearing on time. Well,
35:22
Speaker 3: they sometimes don't appear at all. Sometimes there appear days late,
35:26
Speaker 3: where everyone's moved on.
35:29
Speaker 5: Where are all the disinformation campaigners? Joshules?
35:32
Speaker 3: For a couple of years now, we've been told disinfo, misinfo,
35:37
Speaker 3: it's the great threat to democracy and we've got to
35:39
Speaker 3: stamp it out. But they seem to not be too
35:43
Speaker 3: unperturbed about what's happening on social media right now.
35:48
Speaker 7: Yeah, it's funny how that works, isn't it?
35:50
Speaker 16: So you know, when someone on the rate says, says
35:53
Speaker 16: something that offends the prevailing idiosyncratic orthodoxy of the day.
35:57
Speaker 16: When they see something like that, immediately it is lamb based.
36:00
Speaker 16: It as misinformation, and it is excoriated as disinformation. It
36:04
Speaker 16: is shadow band, that is deep platformed. It is band,
36:06
Speaker 16: that is it is nukes from the Internet. You can't
36:08
Speaker 16: even find it in an Internet archive if you look
36:10
Speaker 16: hard enough. And then when someone does this on the left,
36:14
Speaker 16: you know, shall we say selectively editing, I guess a
36:17
Speaker 16: deep fake. Maybe you might even want to call it there,
36:20
Speaker 16: you know, I mean, these people have such short memories.
36:22
Speaker 7: You know.
36:23
Speaker 16: It was in June, in the lead up, in the
36:25
Speaker 16: weeks prior to the faithful June twenty seventh presidential debate
36:29
Speaker 16: on CNN, it was actually the left. It was Kareem,
36:31
Speaker 16: Jean Pierre, the White House Press Secretary, Terry Here, all
36:34
Speaker 16: the folks, the DNC, they were the ones actually who
36:37
Speaker 16: were accusing Republicans and people on the right of selectively
36:40
Speaker 16: editing videos to make Joe Biden look a lot older
36:43
Speaker 16: and more decrepit that then he actually was according to
36:45
Speaker 16: their review. We all know that he actually is quite
36:48
Speaker 16: that s Nile. I mean this was literally two months ago.
36:51
Speaker 16: I mean, how stupid do they think we are? I mean,
36:53
Speaker 16: do they actually think that we don't have memories of
36:55
Speaker 16: literally two months ago? But now they have their bloodless coup.
36:58
Speaker 16: They have Kamala Harris in office there or I guess
37:01
Speaker 16: as a presumptive nominee, and they think that now they
37:04
Speaker 16: can play the young person's card and try to make
37:06
Speaker 16: Donald Trump out to be older than I mean, none
37:09
Speaker 16: of it makes sense. You know, say what you will
37:11
Speaker 16: about Donald Trump, your milelage may various to whether you
37:13
Speaker 16: like him as a politician. I certainly plan to vote
37:15
Speaker 16: for him, and I'm proud to do so. But I mean,
37:18
Speaker 16: no matter what you can say or not say about
37:19
Speaker 16: Donald Trump, you know the man is full of vigor
37:22
Speaker 16: and energy.
37:23
Speaker 7: I mean he does not act and talk like his age.
37:25
Speaker 16: His mental acumen, I mean it is very clearly not
37:29
Speaker 16: something that a normal person in his late seventies approaching
37:32
Speaker 16: I think he would do.
37:35
Speaker 3: He had an off the cuff two hour chat with
37:39
Speaker 3: one of the smartest men in the world right now,
37:42
Speaker 3: Elon Mask, a genius discussing just dozens of topics without
37:49
Speaker 3: an autoque, without notes, and if you want to pretend
37:53
Speaker 3: he's got some sort of cognitive decline. I think, well,
37:57
Speaker 3: you're basically speaking to low information VOTs and hoping they
38:01
Speaker 3: don't look any deeper, and sadly a lot of them don't.
38:04
Speaker 5: Now mentioned the dream run Kamala is gedding. I just
38:08
Speaker 5: want to show you an example.
38:10
Speaker 3: Politico is deriding Donald Trump because he's trying to tie
38:15
Speaker 3: the vice president to President Biden and his record on
38:19
Speaker 3: the economy. They seem to think that the Biden Harris
38:23
Speaker 3: administration is some sort of a I don't know, a
38:25
Speaker 3: figment of Donald Trump's imagination, and they write it was
38:30
Speaker 3: a link. Trump returned to repeatedly throughout his hour plus
38:34
Speaker 3: speech and effort to blunt Harris's polling and fundraising momentum
38:39
Speaker 3: by tethering her to Biden. The US media really is
38:44
Speaker 3: in the midst of a propaganda campaign unlike anything I've
38:50
Speaker 3: seen in my lifetime.
38:53
Speaker 16: Yeah, I mean, look, Trump doesn't have to quote unquote
38:56
Speaker 16: tether Kamala Harris to Joe Biden. Kamala Harris tethered herself
39:00
Speaker 16: to Joe Biden when she agreed to be his running
39:02
Speaker 16: made back in twenty twenty. I mean, you know, the
39:04
Speaker 16: Democrats this week in Chicago at their Satanic convention are
39:08
Speaker 16: talking about what Kamala Harris is going to do in
39:11
Speaker 16: God forbid, God help us. Day one come January twenty
39:14
Speaker 16: twenty five. You know, Kamala Harris is day one really
39:17
Speaker 16: was the same day one as Joe Biden back in
39:19
Speaker 16: January twenty twenty one. By the way, you know what
39:22
Speaker 16: the Democrats, the Biden Harris administration actually did on day
39:25
Speaker 16: one back in January twenty twenty one. They literally cut
39:28
Speaker 16: back and nix in its entirety the Keystone Xcel Pipelin,
39:32
Speaker 16: which would have delivered cheap, transformative natural gas and oil
39:37
Speaker 16: down to the Gulf of Mexico area from the Edmonton,
39:40
Speaker 16: Alberta Tar sands up there. I mean, they cracked down
39:44
Speaker 16: on a formal energy They've turned. They turned America from
39:46
Speaker 16: what had been the first time in American history that
39:49
Speaker 16: the US was a net exporter of fossil fuels. Under Trump,
39:52
Speaker 16: they made it a net importer of fossil fuels again.
39:54
Speaker 16: But the broader point here is that the entirety of
39:58
Speaker 16: the Joe Biden track record, the policy, Kamala Harris can
40:01
Speaker 16: pretend like she wasn't there. She was there. She was
40:04
Speaker 16: there every step of the way. And you know, again,
40:07
Speaker 16: what the media is doing right now. I go back
40:09
Speaker 16: to what I was saying a few months ago. How
40:11
Speaker 16: dumb do they think that we actually are? Because the
40:13
Speaker 16: media pretended to be real journalist Rita, you saw it
40:15
Speaker 16: as well. They pretended to be real journals for about
40:18
Speaker 16: a three to four week stretch from the June twenty
40:20
Speaker 16: seventh catastrophic debate on CNN until they got their bloodless
40:23
Speaker 16: coup on July twenty. First they were real journalists and
40:26
Speaker 16: now they're in full scale regime propaganda.
40:29
Speaker 7: This mode.
40:29
Speaker 16: They flipped on a switch. It is so disingenuous, It
40:33
Speaker 16: is so deceitful. The silver lining is that I think
40:35
Speaker 16: the polls actually are slowly starting to flip back towards
40:39
Speaker 16: Donald Trump's direction. The American people don't seem like they're
40:41
Speaker 16: going to buy it. We'll see what kind of bounce
40:43
Speaker 16: she gets at the convention. But again, if the Prohama
40:46
Speaker 16: stuff really starts freaking out, she might not get much
40:49
Speaker 16: of a bump at all.
40:52
Speaker 5: Well, just on that media campaign.
40:55
Speaker 3: Conservative media watchdog the Media Research Center into this and
41:00
Speaker 3: found that since the Democrats dumbed Joe Biden for Kamala Harris.
41:05
Speaker 5: The reporting from major media outlets like.
41:08
Speaker 3: ABC, CBSNBC has been overwhelmingly positive for Harris and overwhelmingly
41:14
Speaker 3: negative for Trump. That's not going to surprise anybody. They
41:17
Speaker 3: report that not only has Harris received sixty six percent
41:21
Speaker 3: more airtime than former President Donald Trump despite not doing
41:25
Speaker 3: any interviews, by the way, but the coverage of her
41:28
Speaker 3: has been positive eighty four percent of the time, while
41:31
Speaker 3: Trump's coverage has been negative eighty nine percent of the time.
41:36
Speaker 5: So that just gives.
41:38
Speaker 3: You an idea of the scale of what he's facing.
41:41
Speaker 5: I've only got thirty seconds, Josh.
41:44
Speaker 3: Is this campaign, this media campaign, too much for a
41:49
Speaker 3: candidate to overcome? Could he possibly overcome it like he
41:54
Speaker 3: did in twenty and sixteen?
41:57
Speaker 7: Without question?
41:58
Speaker 16: I mean, I'm not going to confidently predict, you know,
42:00
Speaker 16: to the audience that Donald Trump's going to win this election,
42:02
Speaker 16: but I do think that if the election we're held tomorrow,
42:05
Speaker 16: that Donald Trump would actually be the winner. Right now,
42:07
Speaker 16: I really do think that, you know, recall that America
42:09
Speaker 16: elects our presidence in the electoral College. We don't elect
42:11
Speaker 16: our presidents in a national popular vote. And Republicans have
42:14
Speaker 16: something of a structural advantage in the electoral college. Right Now,
42:18
Speaker 16: back in twenty sixteen, Trump lost a popular vote by
42:20
Speaker 16: about two points one by a good amount in the
42:22
Speaker 16: electoral college. Something very similar could happen this year. So again,
42:26
Speaker 16: if the election work tomorrow, I actually do think Donald
42:28
Speaker 16: Trump would prevail.
42:29
Speaker 5: To believe it or not, Josh Hamma, thank you so
42:33
Speaker 5: much for your time.
42:34
Speaker 7: This savening always a pleasure. Thank you.
42:37
Speaker 5: Still to come.
42:38
Speaker 18: I'll speak to a Victorian mpay who was physically attacked
42:43
Speaker 18: at a pro women's rally.
42:54
Speaker 5: You're watching the Raid of Panihy show. Now.
42:56
Speaker 3: On the weekend, a woman's rights rally in Melbourne spok
43:00
Speaker 3: a violent counter protest from protransactivists, leading to one leftist
43:06
Speaker 3: activist being arrested for allegedly assaulting a police officer. Now,
43:11
Speaker 3: several other women's rights campaigners were pelted with eggs, water balloons,
43:17
Speaker 3: including my next guest, Victorian Liberal MP BEV MacArthur Bev.
43:22
Speaker 19: Tell me what happened, well, Rita, you know women have
43:26
Speaker 19: a right to speak and that's what we were trying
43:29
Speaker 19: to do, being held down by noise.
43:33
Speaker 3: Now, I may have missed it, but I haven't heard
43:34
Speaker 3: anything from Premier just into Alan about this incident, and.
43:38
Speaker 5: Indeed the Liberal leader.
43:40
Speaker 3: John Persudo either have they spoken publicly about what happened
43:46
Speaker 3: or at least reached out to you personally.
43:50
Speaker 19: Well, Rita, the police were there enforced and actually it's
43:53
Speaker 19: a disgrace that so many police have to be deployed
43:56
Speaker 19: so that women can have a safe place to speak. Clearly,
44:00
Speaker 19: it wasn't safe. And no, I haven't heard from the Premier,
44:04
Speaker 19: who ought to be absolutely standing up for women, but
44:08
Speaker 19: of course this labor government is not doing that. And
44:11
Speaker 19: no I have heard from mister Pursute. I'm sure he's
44:14
Speaker 19: through busy with other matters.
44:18
Speaker 3: I just I'm pretty shocked that you have a female
44:22
Speaker 3: MP being attacked in this way. The horrendous things were
44:27
Speaker 3: being shouted towards you. I won't even go into that,
44:30
Speaker 3: and I can't repeat any of it here anyway, But
44:33
Speaker 3: to then also have to have lines of police protecting you,
44:37
Speaker 3: still having an egg hit you, having these projectiles thrown
44:41
Speaker 3: at you, and the rest of the parliamentarians look the
44:46
Speaker 3: other way.
44:47
Speaker 5: That's just not good enough in my book.
44:49
Speaker 3: But I also want to ask you about where you
44:52
Speaker 3: are right now. You're in the Northern Grampians region of Victoria.
44:57
Speaker 3: You're visiting communities affected by the vn I West transmission
45:03
Speaker 3: line project.
45:04
Speaker 5: What impact is.
45:06
Speaker 3: This renewables infrastructure having on the community over there?
45:10
Speaker 19: Well read just to correct you a little bit wherein
45:13
Speaker 19: the wim ram Malley area.
45:15
Speaker 8: I'm at the.
45:16
Speaker 19: Greegree Fireshed about to meet a whole group of very
45:20
Speaker 19: concerned farmers who are having their livelihoods grossly impacted by
45:25
Speaker 19: the transmission line proposal.
45:27
Speaker 4: It is shocking.
45:28
Speaker 19: It's going to devastate livelihoods and lives and people are
45:35
Speaker 19: extremely upset about it. Some even I've just been learned
45:38
Speaker 19: this morning, suicidal. Their whole the values of their properties
45:43
Speaker 19: are going to be downgraded. They have problems with insurance,
45:47
Speaker 19: they can't operate these broad scale farms with transmission lines
45:52
Speaker 19: going cutting through the middle of them. It is absolutely shameful.
45:57
Speaker 19: No Labor MP no, nor for that matter, the Green
46:01
Speaker 19: So we have a Greens member in my region as well,
46:04
Speaker 19: Sarah Mansfield. We have the Animal Justice Party member of
46:08
Speaker 19: the Northern Region Shield to be concerned about this as well,
46:11
Speaker 19: but they're not. Nobody reaches out to these people, Nobody
46:15
Speaker 19: answers their calls, their predocur that it is a terrible
46:20
Speaker 19: situation occurring at I've already been fighting them for years
46:24
Speaker 19: in the Western Renewables Link area from Sydnham through to Ballarat.
46:28
Speaker 19: Now we've got the V and I West interconnected, going
46:31
Speaker 19: to the New South Wales border. It is a shocking situation.
46:35
Speaker 19: And if we're going to have green transmission, we're going
46:38
Speaker 19: to need green If we're going to have green energy,
46:43
Speaker 19: we're going to need green transmission because we haven't got that.
46:47
Speaker 19: These people drawing up the plans for transmission lines on
46:51
Speaker 19: the back of an oglow b in Melbourne somewhere don't
46:54
Speaker 19: give a hoot about these people in the country. And
46:57
Speaker 19: I am concerned for their lively hoods and the futures
47:01
Speaker 19: of these communities because the communities are being divided. Towns
47:05
Speaker 19: are being divided, and for what gained. It is shocking
47:09
Speaker 19: what's happening, and has been happening for years and still
47:12
Speaker 19: is happening. And the Minister for Energy, the Premier have
47:16
Speaker 19: absolutely no interest in these wonderful people who produce the
47:20
Speaker 19: food that feed the nation and the world.
47:25
Speaker 3: You're so right, and it's across the country. We spoke
47:28
Speaker 3: to the New Advance Australia spokeswoman on the Weekend on
47:33
Speaker 3: Outsiders and she is advocating for these communities and so
47:38
Speaker 3: many of them are being ignored. What they are wanting
47:42
Speaker 3: to happen is completely disregarded.
47:45
Speaker 5: And so many people in the city have really no.
47:48
Speaker 3: Idea of the scale of these projects, what's happening in
47:52
Speaker 3: these areas, and it's really shocking just the way it
47:57
Speaker 3: is damaging the natural environment alone, that in itself is
48:01
Speaker 3: a Scandaler Beth MacArthur, We always appreciate your time. Thanks
48:05
Speaker 3: for joining me tonight.
48:08
Speaker 5: Thanks Reja, and that's it from me.
48:11
Speaker 3: I'll see you at eleven tomorrow with Douglas Murray.
48:15
Speaker 5: Good Night,
