On scylus Oscodio. This is the Wader Paney Show.
Good evening and welcome to the reader Panekey Show coming up a packed program. Joining me tonight, Professor in Primer pro McSween Kinsey Schofield and the encourageable text on himself Alex Stein and an extended version of Left He's losing it.
I just think it's so disseasedful and sick that like all these older men walk around with their like Vietnam bat pats and like bomber stickers, and I'm just like, ooh, it makes me actually feel sick to my stomach.
Joining me now is Sky News contributor Pro McSwain pro Let's start in Melbourne where pro Palestinian protesters attack members of the public and clash with police during a violent demonstration in Melbourne's at CBD yesterday, Several attacked a busker on Burke Street More after we refuse to stop playing. He was interrupting their genocidal chance apparently, and there was that mayhem We've become all too accustomed to. In Melbourne.
The violinist equipment was destroyed by the protesters. You have the pro Palestinian mob joined by the extension, rebellion and disrupt Landforces groups. Two men were arrested in Burk Street Mall, including one who kicked a police officer. But listen to how these protesters are continuously described on the nightly news.
They're standing up for victims of a war. But today some of those fighting against violence found themselves in the middle of it. A buscer assaulted by two rogue protesters when he was caught in the path of their march.
We're pilings.
All of our equipment, which we used for a living, has just been destroyed.
The violinists were encouraged to join in, but wanted to do their job. They bring an atmosphere to this city which welcomes people and supports businesses and makes Melbourne a good place.
Can we get that busker to report the news that might be better pro and things are about to get a lot worse in Melbourne. We've got eighteen hundred police officers needed to protect participants of the Landforces Expo. The protesters seem to know who runs this town.
It is foolish to host it in Melbourne and nom this is the protest capital of this continent.
Yesterday, a steel fence was erected around the entire building and tanks were escorted inside under darkness. Police are now patrolling around the clock. Eighteen hundred offices diverted from duties to monitor the area.
This week the protest capital of the continent. Pro they're saying, the lunatics are running the asylum has never been more apt.
Absolutely, you know, this is going to bring in something like seventy million dollars to Victoria's ailing economy. But these fools who it's quite astounding when you think that they're protesting against military arms which in fact are only used to try and enforce peace and allow people like this to protest, to have the ability to live in a democracy and have the privilege of being being able to protest.
It's just absurdity. And some of the language they use, you know, where they're saying that this expo is a place where they shake hands to deal do deals, exchanging.
Flesh for cash.
You know, they've come up with all these emotive sort of terms to describe something that is sadly needed because when we look around the world.
It's so vulnerable.
Now we're on the abyss of more fighting and potential World War III. If you don't have weapons, you won't have the ability to protest.
And the cost eighteen hundred police officers diverted from their regular duties. And also it's probably a good time to be a criminal in Victoria right now because those eighteen hundred officers are preoccupied with taking care of the exhibition center. Now's move on to Canberra. Treasurer Jim Chalmers has confirmed that questions on sexual orientation and gender identity will be included in Australia's next sensus. This is after advocacy from
several labor MPs and gbt QIA plus plus activists. Let's have a listen.
In introducing this new topic which covers both orientation and gender. We believe that in listening and in working with the ABS and the community and consulting in a really genuine way, we've found the best way forward. Lg BTIQ plus Australian's matter. They have been heard and they will count.
Prue, what's your take on this? Are these questions necessary?
Well, it may surprise you Rita that initially I thought no, but now I'm thinking, well, I really don't have a problem with it.
I have a problem that it's become.
A political situation where Anthony Albanese is flip flop. He put his head up above the parapet and saw that there was going to be an outcry, so he changed his mind yet again. But I suppose if you're looking at it from the perspective that they may need to understand what kind of services may be required in the future, which is the aim of a census, then I really don't have a problem with it.
Now. Former footballer Nathan Brown has slammed the Prime Minister for what he says was the hijacking of the Hawthorn versus Bulldogs at finals game. The Hawks, of course prevailed, and Nathan Brown has accused the Prime Minister of hijacking the event for his own self interest.
Well, because I feel like the Prime Minister this is for the good of himself going into the Hawthorn rooms and this this sickens me.
Anthony help.
He's had a look at the pole over Peter Dunton is closing and he's in front.
There's a gap.
He feels like I need to look like a common man. I'm going to go into the Hawthorn rooms. Give it up, elbow. Noe's buying it.
I agree with him. He has a point prove. Albo claims to be a lifelong Hawthorne fan, but we've got images of him not that long ago in swan scarves, in magpie scarves. I mean, he's just putting himself about everywhere. He needs to pick a team and stick with them, surely.
Well he should, but you know, no winning football team, no little baby's going to be safe on the crack campaign trail trail. I mean, the guy is, you know, his back's at the wall. He's looking at the poles and realizing that he's got to pull out every last pole a trick he can in the book to try and win some votes. But everybody's on to him. It's sickening really when you think about it, and on.
The consequential issues, this is another one that's going to give him some nightmares. The Australian has exposed Labour's thirty two billion dollar housing pledge is built on very shaky foundations. Indeed, less than three billion of the money has been dispersed for the construction of new homes. But even with that three billion, The Australian reports, no new dwellings have yet been completed. After more than two years in office. Labor pledged one point two million new homes pre to be
built by twenty thirty. I don't think they're going to hit that target.
Well, I think you're right, Brito. Look, the problem with this government is that no one believes them anymore because they came to the election with all these promises, all this spin. People bought it for some reason. It was more because it was in a vote against Morrison than anything else. And now we've woken up to him and whatever the pledge is, we know they're not going to be able to deliver it.
Prue McSween, thank you so much for your time this evening pleasure. Joining me now is esteem geologist Professor Ian Pimer, and we'll discuss the big gas backflip in Victoria shortly, but first, More and more Australian businesses are moving away from buying voluntary carbon offsets, with iron ore giant ford Escue the latest to cast out over their effectiveness and cutting admissions and its annual report, the company said ford Eskew will no longer buy voluntary carbon offsets unless required
by law. Well, I guess if it's required by law, it's not voluntary, is it?
In what is.
Behind ford Escue's shift in policy. You've got other companies like BHP, Woolworts and Telstra also making similar decisions. What's behind this trend.
Well, what's behind it is reality. Ford have been mugged by reality. We once had a good system. The idea logs got into it. Oh, we all have to go out and buy carbon off sheets, whatever they're going to do for the planet. We've ended up having a lot of pain. And now we were saying we don't want this voluntary pain.
Let's get out of the silly system.
And that's exactly what's happened. And fortes Que have joined many many other companies who are looking at the reality, and the reality is costs.
We are imposing massive.
Additional costs by having these carbon offsets, which allegedly do something to save the planet, will save us from.
What the reality checks keep coming. This time for a Swedish car manufacturer of Volvo, they've abandoned their target to produce only electric vehicles by twenty thirty. Chief executive Jim Rowan and sis we are resolute in our belief that our future is electric. However, it is clear that the transition to electrification will not be linear. And customers and markets are moving at different speeds, that's one way of
putting it. Registrations of evs across the European Union dropped by nearly eleven percent in July, according to the European Automobile Manufacturers Association. The UK in is also pushing ahead, though, with its plan for all new cars to be fully electric and zero mission by twenty thirty five, but only three percent of cars in the UK last year fit those requirements. The reality checks are coming, but I'm not sure if the governments are listening.
Well.
We've had Volvo, which is actually a Chinese company, now Mercedes Volkswagen, the biggest car company in the world. They have all said no, we're not going.
To go down the electric path.
Even Bentley, who are well known for their super deeper, fast sports cars, have said we're not going electric. Now. What has happened is that the elites have been telling them that we're going to go electric. Oh, it's going to be a wonderful world. But the market is saying something very different, and people saying no, we don't want electric. We don't want the stress of buying electric car, having to travel a few hundred kilometers and being worried whether
we can charge app all the time. So the market is speaking. The market is saying, if you elite people what to have ideas about electric cars filling our roads, your nuts. Electric cars are not a very good idea. We tried them in the eighteen forties. They didn't work. We tried them in from about nineteen hundred to nineteen twenty. Yes, they worked for very short distances. But if you want to travel in anything more than say, fifty kilometers a day,
you're taking big risks driving electric. The market is not stupid.
Now let's talk about Victoria. The Victorian government are walking back their hardline stance on gas. They will allow Victorians to continue cooking with gas. The ban on gas stovetops has now been excluded from their net zero roadmap in the internal polling on This must have been grim for them to do this backflip, but I do know that the hapless Victorian lives went to the last selection really
not talking about this at all. You would have thought that would have been a clear policy platform for them to say, will allow you to keep cooking with gas when labor we're about to take that option away from Victorians. But now it seems that labor themselves are going to backflip on that policy.
Well, it's terrible to talk about Victoria. They're just killing themselves. Be it the labor or be at the liberals talk journey chefs in Victoria. They want to cook with gas. They don't want to cook on an induction stave.
We hear the.
Victorian politicians saying, oh, we've got no gas and we've got to restrict it. Absolute Conswaller. Yes, the backs straight field is decreasing in the gas output, but there is a large amount of onshore gas. I've seen the flaring of gas wells on Shaw and Gippsland. Victoria is is a victim of its own policies, and these policies are on both sides of politics. Victoria's got stacks of gas, Victoria's got stacks of energy, and they've only got to
have sensible policy. So Victoria is in the habit of kicking our own goals and continues to do it. But people think differently, which is why the government has changed his view. The government is not leading, it's actually following.
It is. But I've got to say this is a government that doesn't too often walk back from its pledges, no matter how stupid they may be. So for them to execute this backfully, but I've got to say there must be great resistance amongst the Victorian public. They must have really seen some ugly numbers for them to do this. We're grateful for that. Professor Ian Plymer, thank you so much for your time this evening.
Thank you for having me.
Still to come. An extended version of Lefty's Losing It and Alex Dine reacts to Kamala's bizarre gender take on comfey Cups. Welcome back. Now it's time for Lefties Losing It. We'll be getting into some of Kamala's latest antiques shortly, but first let's start with a Hollywood clown, actor Joseph Gordon Levitt, who decided to post this video for himself trying to take down Trump's tax cuts, trying being the operative word. Like most Hollywood types, he has no idea what he's talking about.
So Donald Trump wants to give me seventy thousand dollars in tax cuts per year, and by the way, he doesn't want to give that to everybody. But I just read that's the average tax break for the top one percent. If Donald Trump is elected president seventy thousand dollars and you might say, well, he's going to give tax break to everybody, but not really, because of all the tax cuts, of all that money, nearly half of it is going to go to just the top five percent of people.
Oh wow, you got in there. Half of the tax cuts will go to just the top five percent of income owners. Could that be, Joseph, because they pay most of the tax collected. You do realize that's how the system works. And you're not getting a gift from Donald Trump. You just get to keep more of the money you've earned. And if you haven't earned it in the first place, you can't get it back in a tax cut. This
isn't hard. Let's make it even easier for you. Because I know left e is get nervous around facts and figures. The top five percent of taxpayers pay sixty five point six percent of all income tax collected according to the IRS, so it looks like they're being shut changed with that tax cut. But Joseph, this is the actor who are bleeded endlessly about the ordeal of playing at cop given in support of and he called Trump a despot. In twenty twenty, we shouldn't be too surprised that old Joe
has more advice to impart to the American people. Get ready to lose some brain cells.
If you want to talk about who's going to really help most Americans, it's Kamala. Trump's going to help the same people he always tries to help.
The wealthy himself.
He was born a wealthy guy.
And look, I completely respect needing to vote for the candidate that's going to make it easier for your family. But Donald Trump isn't that candidate. Donald Trump's trying to give me seventy thousand dollars. So mister Trump, thank you, but no.
Thanks, Oh justin economically illiterate, idiot and a hypocrite too, because he will take that cut. He will pocket it. And you're free to donate to Joseph, to whoever you want, even the government. Now we've bought you plenty of clips of indoctrination in schools, but here we'll see an adult in doctrinate what appears to be a very young child, possibly the woman's own child, with radical gender theory by suggesting the names on a board game are non binary,
with they them pronouns. No wonder the kids are confused these days, So this person may not feel like a girl or a boy, so their pronouns would be sea them and they right, And so when we're talking about them, we could say they really like mac and cheese. Dood have hat on, Yes, they do have a hat, but what if the hat identifies as a pumpkin. These ideologues can't even enjoy a board game with their kids without using it as an opportunity to push their mad Marxist ideology.
Now to one of the Democrats' big social media hacks, who appears obsessed with telling us how happy she is to be child free. It's a tad strange.
I'm forty two, child free, It's Sunday, Sunday, no babysitter needed.
Let's go okay. I assure you the right does not hate this. They probably would prefer Left is losing it to stop procreating. But why they need to keep ranting about this.
I'm forty two, I'm child free for the weekend.
I'm in Atlantic City, honey times. She does know that you can be forty two and still go out, even if you're a mum, and the kids don't stay toddlers forever. But at least while this Democrat fan girl, Angela is doing her child free stick, she's not dancing. Where's the music? I mean, bless her. She is adorable in a slightly demented kind of way. Now to the demented kind of
way without the adorableness. Let's check in with the ladies of the View, and here one of them tries to make a sane, obvious point that you shouldn't be mean or disown friends or family whose politics differ from yours. It doesn't go well. First there's pushback from joy Beha, and then Anna Navarro loses it.
We shouldn't demean Trump supporters.
We shouldn't call them names.
We shouldn't either cult us or ignorant, because.
We all have them in our lives. We all have them in our lives and we love them, and if they don't change, it's not going to change my relationship with them.
I do think we should call them names. And I think Donald.
Thomas, I think I think, you know, I think Tim Walsham's brother is dumb as hell, and he gets into that vice presidential mansion, he's going to miss a lot of good parties.
That he's a strange from his brother.
Yeah, forget about your principles, think of the parties. Navara was a heap being abused there on Tim Walshle's brother for endorsing Trump. Now, let's look at this exchange between Charlie Kirk and a confused young man who thinks he's smarter than he actually is, whose arguments pretty much amount to shouting racist, bigot, trans of phobe.
And racist, who does not know.
Fact.
You are not a gender science. You cannot speak on that because what understand? What?
What percentage of murders do blacks commit in America?
We shouldn't justify you being here by giving you an audience.
You do not speak accurate facts.
What have I said that's not factual or not true or anything that I've said that's racist? Named one thing? Yeah, black people are thirteen percent of the population and they commit fifty percent.
Of the murders.
You can look it over.
Please wait you what's your sword? The FBI?
The Department of Justice.
FBI, Department of Justice. It did not get any better for this angry, befuddled lefty losing it.
It is a fact that blacks have a disproportionate amount of the violent crime in their community. Why do you think that is.
I'm not here to debate with you because I don't want a platform. You you're racist.
You call me a racist. What have I ever said that's racist? Or do you just think numbers are racist?
You said it, y'all. You can understand statistics, how you speak on numbers.
Thanks for your time, Oh.
Dear, that's sad. Soy boy doesn't want to give Kirk a platform. The dude with millions and millions of followers. That makes sense now, MSNBC wish they had as many viewers as Turning Point USA. We have more people watching this segment online than most the most watched MSNBC shows. I'm not and this may be why they've veered so far left that they are advocating for ill or Musk to be punished for not being a government math pace and he.
Has a right to express his opinion. However, that right is not unlimited, and he is under some special limitations that wouldn't apply to normal people because his companies, specifically Starlink and space X, are government contractors and as such he has obligations to the government that would for any normal person and should for him require him to moderate
his speech in the interest of national security. So what you have is somebody who runs really strategic defense and aerospace projects for the federal government, who's actively undermining the government which is paying him. And somewhere in there is a legal case that needs to be prosecuted.
Moderate his speech in the interests of national s security. Somewhere in there there is a case that needs to be prosecuted. What do you mean they want to create new laws to have a sham trial like they did with Trump. And how exactly is Elon must doing anything that could compromise national security by allowing inconvenient facts to be shared on x Allowing free debate is a threat to the national security? Now, no wonder no one is watching MSNBC. But what they lack in audience numbers they
make up for in pure hypocrisy. Here they claim that mispronouncing Kamala's name the latest preferred pronunciation of her name, amounts to racism and sexism. But here is a full minute of lefties doing just that, including plenty of them on MSNBC. See if you can count how many times Kamala's name is mispronounced in this next clip.
The head campaign against Kamala Harris has begun, You'll notice they purposefully pronounce her name wrong. Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris.
Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris, Harris Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris people like Kamala Harris, but.
As Kamala said Kamala, Harris Kamela, and I.
Are Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris.
Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris.
Is Kamela, Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris Kambala, Harris Kambla.
Harris Kamala, Harris was a very good prosecutor Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris.
Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris.
Kamala, Harris and I know her and Kamala was Firs biden and Kamala Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris.
Kamala, Harris Kamala, Harris.
Mela, Harris Kamala, Harris Kamala Harris.
And to the Kamela point, they purposefully pronounced her name wrong. They say Kamala. They do it all the time. It is on purpose.
Kamala Harris, Kamala Harrismala Harris.
Kamala Harris, Kamala Harris.
Harris, Kamala Harris was talking about this, Kamala Harris, Kamala Harris, Kamala Harris.
I counted sixty one. There so many racist, sexist lefties. Now to the worst thing to happen to the American education system. Take it away, Randy.
If we win, that means we strengthen democracy.
That means we strengthen our freedoms.
That means the middle class can be ascended.
That means we strengthen education, we strengthen the economy, We strengthen our right. I was president of the American Federation of Teachers. Now to a woman in a burker whining about Vietnam vets being proud of their service. This is so crazy that I'm wondering whether it's satire.
I just think it's so distastful and sick that like all these older men walk around with their like Vietnam veat hats and like bumber stickers, and I'm just like, ooh, in what world does it call to? Like indeed the country and like kill lots of people, And I mean, that's not a defensive war, especially when there's like a lot of Asian men like Filipinos who fought in that war. I'm just like, guys, it's not cool. It makes me actually feel sick to my stomach.
You know what's upsetting to me seeing a woman in a free country where she has four rights choose to subjugate herself, which is completely dehumanized, whether it's behind a burka or a nickab where she's hidden from the world. Women in countries like Iran are being beaten, imprisoned, and even killed fighting against hijabb laws. And then you have women like that in the West putting on the political garments of Islamism. By the way, burker's are banned in
more than a dozen countries, including France, and with good reason. Okay, I made you wait long enough. Let's get some kamala goodness. Here she is in the little set up that her campaign has organized. She's in a spice shop, comforting a weeping woman.
You know, Oh, it's gonna be good.
We're going to be good and we're going to be fine.
We're gonna be fine.
We are all in this together. We are We're gonna.
Be Yes, we are, Yes, we are. Did you get some spices? Did you get some spices? Hysterical laughter. Perhaps the gold Staff family is Kamala is ignored for three years after their loved ones were killed in the watched Afghanistan withdrawal should frequent spice shops. Maybe she'll acknowledge their existence then, And if you think this was just a spontaneous encounter, This little spice shop is called Penzi Spices and it has a hate page on their website called
about Republicans. It has a eight hundred and forty two word rant against the GOP, saying things like we've done pretending the Republican Party's embrace of cruelty, racism, covid lies, climate change denial, and threats to democracy are anything other than the risks they legitimately are. If you need us to pretend you are not creating the hurt you are creating in order for you to continue to be our customer, I'm sad to say you might be happier elsewhere. Yeah,
I think you're right there. Feel the love and unity, folks. That's the love and unity the Democrats preach about. Now, Kamala has always had a taste for the consequential issues. Here's a clip off her opining about the color of Starbucks coffee cups their lids.
So you know how those lids are, because this is I'm just gonna speak, Okay, So this is it. So you know how those lids on the Starbucks comes. They're weight right, and so if you were al stick, they get all over the lid. And so then I find myself in meetings if I'm the only woman, and that's kind of and so I keep taking the lid off and having my cup out so that I don't have that big lipstick mark on the lid. So I said, can we do something about the color of the lid. So that was that conversation.
It's it's almost impossible to parody that. But thank god we have this Steve Palti because she's ie just that that's my damn.
So y'all know how they have those you know, white cups, white lids and Starbucks And you know.
I'm just I'm gonna speak, I'm gonna say.
It, right, So you know they have those lids and you know, if you're the only woman and you're wearing lipstick.
I'm in that meeting and I gotta now put the cup down, gotta take off the lid. I gotta drink it like it.
You know, it's a whole big thing. And you know, so you know what I said, that said, can we do something about the color of this lid?
Can we do something?
And we'll have plenty more lefties in this next segment. Joining me now is host of Primetime with Alex Stein on Blaze TV. Alex Stein, I want to get your thoughts on the clip that's been pushed hard by the media at the moment of the VP comforting an elderly lady in a spice shop. But what do you make of that twenty eighteen clip where she seems a little too preoccupied with coffee cups and what color their lids are.
Well, it's obvious that Kamala Harris doesn't like the color white, you know, and I guess these lids aren't enough for a DEI hire for her, so she's going to go after Starbucks. And it's kind of sad that this is what the potential free litder of the world is worried about the color of her coffee lid so that her lipstick doesn't show. I just think that there are much bigger fish to fry than the shade of lipstick residue that's on her Starbucks.
I would have never ever thought of that, And I'm sure the same things happened to me where I've been in a meeting with blokes and my lipstick maybe on the coffee cup lid. Who cares? I mean, why would you be concerned with that? And she talked about how she'd take the lid off so people wouldn't see her lipstick is on her lips, Kamal. Everyone can see you wearing lipstick. You don't need to hide it. The whole thing is absurd. But we've got the debate looming, very exciting. Indeed,
it could be the one and only debate. In fact, it does look like it's going to be the one and only debate between Harris and President Donald Trump. And some insiders are leaking that her team are nervous about her performance. Alex, what do you think she needs to do to get in Trump's head and what is the best game plan for Trump?
Well? Trump needs a let her talk.
You know, she did okay at the DNC when she had that prepared statement, but if she has to improv of anything, she's probably going to have a little too many glasses of wine and who knows what can happen. So Trump she's let her speak because she's not well off script.
That's very obvious. She's terrible off script.
But you would think with all the time she's had to prepare for this debate that she knows what's to come. She knows what the major questions are going to be, and she's going to have everything almost word perfect, ready to go. There's a few hot topics and she's had plenty of time to get her answers down pat So it's going to be fascinating. We'll be watching it, and Paul Murray and myself will be watching it live and bringing you out actions at it as it happens. But
let's move on to something more frivolous. Former Bachelorette star Josh Seed, who now identifies as a woman, has made a video empathizing with the many dangerous situations women find themselves in.
Hi, everyone, I just wanted to talk today about being aware of dangerous situations that women can often find themselves in. Now that I'm a woman, I'm always aware of what's going on around me and when my guard needs to go up. The other day, I was working out and the man came up to me and he made a comment about my muscular physique, and that just sent shock waves through my body.
Alex, I've asked you about this before. I need to know. Is that just some big troll, some parody act. Is it a reality show that is filming that we don't know about, or is that genuine? It's killing me not knowing.
No, Josh is playing a character.
But Josh is actually doing a very good job, in my opinion, showing how absurd it is that people can just identify as a girl for five minutes to start to use the women's restroom. So, you know, I like what Josh is doing, trying to expose that a lot of these trans people that are just trying.
To do You're sure it's not real?
You are sure?
You are sure?
Rita, Yes, I know this. I know Josh is just yanking our chain. As they say here in America. It is totally an act. Josh is not an idiot when it comes to you know, going viral, and Josh is getting a lot of attention, and that viral fame can be addicting. So I think that's why Josh is doubled down and continuing to play this character.
But as we've seen with some other characters, things that we thought were parody, even Dylan Mulvainey in the early days, people were convinced it was a big troll, and then surgeries were happening, and there was feminization happening beyond what you would expect from from a parody. So I don't know, I'm not one hundred percent, but I'll trust your judgment
on that one. Now, we've heard a lot from veterans who are outraged about Kamala Harris's VP pick Tim Wolls's embellishing his record his military record for political gain, but we haven't heard much from McDonald's employees about Harris possibly doing the same. Because she claims she once worked at McDonald's, people are casting doubt on that, and you went searching for the truth.
We are at McDonald's.
We're going to ask the employees if they're upset that Kamala Harris would steal their valor of being a McDonald's employee. Did you see Kamala Harris said that she lied and said she worked in McDonald's. What do you think about yes, do you think that dad that she loved?
She lied?
She didn't really work here. They did a background check.
They asked corporate, she never worked there. Thank you for your hard work, thank you for your service. She said she used to work in McDonald They caught.
Her line in corporate office.
She stole your valor, Kamila Harris could never have to ask you.
I'm gonna worry, but you don't want to see one, Karmalin, What.
Are you gonna called the car asking about Kamela Hurt's lying about working McDonald's.
Nor comments.
That could be the most ridiculous cop interaction you've had so far, Alex, And that's saying something, How do you know this is true? You've gone there and you've said that she has stolen these McDonald's workers valor? How do you know Kamala didn't work at a McDonald's way back when?
Well, this is how I know, because Snopes is still not confirming whether she has or hasn't, because there's no indication from corporate that she was ever an employee, And if you worked at McDonald you'd keep your name tag. You would know the location that you worked at. If she had one bit of evidence that she worked at McDonald's, she would be able to prove it.
Two seconds, da are you saying she hasn't even said which McDonald's she worked at. Surely she knows that. I don't expect her to keep her name tag, but you would expect her to remember which outlet she was in.
Well, they even looked at her resume for jobs that she had after and she never put that she worked a McDonald's. And believe it or not, having McDonald's on your resume as a young kid would probably give you, you know, a leg up and other jobs because.
They would say, hey, look you worked hard.
You worked in a service industry, so would show you to have customer care wor show you how to be you know, hard working.
She lied.
That's crazy in itself to have someone buying to be the leader of the free world lying about working at macas really now, Former First Lady Milania Trump is about to release her memoir, which she hopes will clarify the facts around her life and service.
Writing this memoir has been a deeply personal and reflective journey for me as a private person has often been the subject of public scrutiny and misrepresentations. I feel a responsibility to clarify the facts. I believe it is important to share my perspective the truth.
Her memoir has already saw to the top spot on several Amazon bestseller lists despite not being released until October. First, Alex, what are you hoping at? This memoir reveals? And let's not forget Milania is the first verse lady in many years not to feature on the cover of Vogue, despite obviously being a very beautiful, stylish woman. We had Jill on the cover, Hillary Michelle, but no Millennia.
Yeah, Millennia is absolutely beautiful.
And then when Vice President Kamala was on the cover, she was wearing Chuck Taylor tennis shoes.
And it shows you for all the people that say.
Donald Trump is against him aggretion, he married an immigrant, so I think that that just proves their point to be invalid. And I'm excited to see her side of the story. She gets a lot of unfair treatment. I think it would be very hard to be Melania Trump with all the unfair attacks because of her husband on her.
So I'm excited to see what.
Comes out in this memoir that'll give us an inside scoople.
Alex Stein, thank you for your time this evening.
Thank you, Rita still to come.
Why Elton John is winning praise from mega fans and Meghan Markle cuddles up to Oprah again watching the Rita Panny Show and joining me now is Entertainment and Ray reporter Kinsey Schofield. Let's start with Elton John, who, unlike most celebs, refuse to accept a free kick from Variety magazine to bash Donald Trump. He was asked his reaction to President Trump liking his music and calling North Korean dictator Kim Jong un a little rocketman?
How did it feel when he took the lyrics to Rocketman and he used it as a nickname for Kim Jong un, and then he gave Kim Jong.
I laughed, was brilliant.
Good on your Donald.
I'm the rocket Man.
Yeah.
Donald's always been a fan of mine and he's been to my conscerts many many times. So I mean I've always been friendly towards him, and I thank him for his support. Yeah, when he did that, I just thought it was hilarious.
It was maybe laugh seeing the interviewer wanted a viral moment at Kinsey. He didn't get it. Elton said it was brilliant, but it wasn't that great.
I mean, I love that Elton John refused the clickbait. But also we've had this discussion before. How disappointing is it when we find out that the food fighters are threatening to sue or that Selene Deon is offended by the fact that Donald Trump, you know, is playing her music at his rally. You know, people of all different faiths,
of all different political backgrounds a love music. And the fact that Selenian is cutting off an entire group of people now and offending this entire group of people now by criticizing Trump and not allowing him to play her music. So, Elton John, I'm going to go buy more of your albums now. I'm going to go buy an Elton John T shirt and I'm going to thoroughly enjoy Elton John's music now, knowing that he's not playing the heat game.
Absolutely. And I tell you, someone like Celine Dion in particular, she's someone who is almost universally liked, so bad move to go down this road, because yeah, You're right, You're going to upset half the population, perhaps more. Now HBO hosts at Bill Maher, who is a liberal, is a man of the left, but generally a sensible left in
not always. He's at Taylor Swift for not watching the Kansas City Chiefs game alongside her friend, or perhaps former friend, Brittany Mahomes, after the wife of the game's top player expressed her support for Donald Trump.
Here's my question. Yesterday the NFL season started. Now, in the past, Taylor Swift was she was always in the same box with Brittany Mahons, and now they can't sit in the same box. I guess because Brittany liked some of Trump's tweets and Taylor's for Karmela. Don't you think partisan should be done.
To Brittany and Taylor did appear briefly together at the US opened, but they watched their partner's NFL game from separate suites. Is Bill Wright Kinsey's Is Taylor making a point to distance herself from Brittany Mahomes.
I don't think so. It's my understanding that Brittany had the babies there she's currently incubating. She had on these hideous jeans, God Lover. She had on these ugly jeans and just a plain white T shirt. Taylor Swift walks in and you know, these bomb boots, sixty thousand dollars outfit. And I think that Brittany just was allowing Taylor to have her moments standing up there with Travis's family, and
Brittany is you know, she's a human jungle gym. She's got babies crawling all over her, and I just don't think she wanted to be compared to Taylor.
Now.
Megan Markle appeared alongside Oprah Winfrey at an event for her book club, telling the audience, I'm looking at this time of my chapter of Joy. My intentionality is to enjoy this chapter and be able to love through every piece of this as best we can. I'm not hearing a lot of joy from Meghan and Harry. Most of the times we hear from them that normally whining about something. But I do wonder about the use of the word joy in her statement. It's been connected with Kamala's campaign.
Is this just her having a subtle way of expressing her support, I mean not so subtle.
She's standing there next to Oprah Winfrey, who took the DNC state. I definitely think that Meghan Markle is a team Kamala. But remember Rita, I think we actually had this discussion in May of this year. We were warned that Meghan Markle was preparing to launch a Summer of Love charm offence in a bid to boost her popularity in America. And so to me, this is what hearing quotes like that, that's exactly what she's trying to do.
You know that feel the love versus the kind of hostility that we've seen from Harry and Meghan in the past, And I just don't think people are ready to buy it from them. There was too much anger and bitterness over the last four years.
Well, it's all we've heard, whether it was their doco, the book, the sit down interview with Oprah, the podcast, it's just been incessant whining to the point where it's become comical. Meanwhile, I've got the Princess of Wales planning to return to public life in the next few months she continues her private battle against cancer. Do we know how soon she could be returning?
Kinsey, Well, you know the quote was good days and bad days, and they are going to try to take advantage of the good days that the Princess of Wales has while she is undergoing this cancer treatment. No official date set, but she could potentially join King Charles and the rest of the Royal family for the National Service of Remembrance that's in November, and then plans are excitingly underway for Catherine's annual together at Christmas Carol Service at
Westminster Abbey. No official confirmation that she'll be there, but I highly suspect that she will.
Now fresh embarrassment for the Royal family is Amazon Prime prepares to drop its drama series A Very Royal Scandal into Prince Andrew's disastrous interview with the BBC.
I'm sure this is right.
A woman journalist the optic say she has to be female.
What's my strategy?
It's two targets.
Why did he stay at a convicted pedophile's house? And did he have sex with Giffrey when she was under age?
But she's cocking.
You can handler you sweating like any other man facing allegations of sexual assaults.
People forget I've been to war.
I'm going to blow this out of the water.
I've got to say it looks pretty interesting. And the character playing Prince Andrew looks very very close to him. Is this going to be the final nail in that coffin as far as getting Prince Charles, King Charles I should say to finally boot Prince Andrew out of his lodge.
Well, I think that this could be. The Daily Mail is reporting that King Charles is giving Prince Andrew an ultimatum, basically that he either needs to find a way of being financially independent and pay his own expenses which would cover his security and maintenance of his home, or move
into a more suitable accommodation. But Riata, we're bearing the lead because according to The Express, Prince Andrew is excited about Amazon's a very Royal scandal and is expected to throw a viewing party at Royal Lodge.
Believe it or not, the audacity. Why does he think it's going to work in his favor? Surely he doesn't think this is going to be complimentary to him.
I think he might just be an egomaniac, which you know, you see a little bit of that in that trailer. So I mean, what doesn't surprise me? But I just I'm amazed. I just sit back and think I wish I had your confidence, Prince Andrew.
Well maybe not, because it was that confidence that really was behind his downfall. Knsisco, Phil, thank you so much for your time this evening. Thank you. That's it from me. Newsnight is up next. I'll see you at eleven tomorrow
