Speaker 1 (00:02):
This is Power Hour with Gabriella Power. Hello and welcome
to Pala Allah. I'm Gabriella Palat. Thank you for your company. Well,
it is the art of the deal, and US President
Donald Trump is making historic deals on the world stage
that even his haters have been forced to admit is
great for America.

Speaker 2 (00:23):
Fourth of July, somebody had to think how the country was.
The economy was going to be tanked by then, and
I was kind of like, well, that seems right to me,
but that didn't happen. Look, the stock market is at
record highs. I know not everybody lives by the stock market,
but I also drive around.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
I don't see a country in a depression at all.

Speaker 2 (00:45):
I see people out there just living their lives.

Speaker 3 (00:48):
And I would have thought, and I got to own it,
that these tariffs were going to sink this economy by
this time, and they didn't.

Speaker 1 (01:01):
Over the weekend, President Trump and European Commissioned President Urshula
Vondalay and were away from the cameras for seventy five minutes.

Speaker 4 (01:08):
That's how long their meeting went for.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
When they return, they announced that the US and the
EU reached a massive economic trade deal that will see
the EU open its twenty trillion dollar market.

Speaker 4 (01:19):
We'll see the EU purchase.

Speaker 1 (01:21):
Seven hundred and fifty billion dollars in energy products and
invest six hundred billion dollars in America. And tariffs set
at fifteen percent.

Speaker 5 (01:30):
Mister Trump, can you do better than fifteen percent.

Speaker 3 (01:33):
Tariff rage for the EU? Better?

Speaker 2 (01:36):
Mini lower? Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:37):
Now, there's no doubt that Trump's tariff sent shock waves
around the world when he introduced reciprocal levies to deal
with unfair trade practices inflicted on the United States, and
the experts and the mainstream media all claimed that it
wouldn't work, that it would be a disaster.

Speaker 4 (01:55):
Well, once again he's proving them wrong.

Speaker 6 (01:58):
Well, the bottom line is, this is the biggest trade
deal in President Trump's effort to effectively reshape the global
trading order that has been one of his central priorities
since taking office in January. He's been issuing many threats
of tariffs, but they clearly have been working in terms
of bringing other countries' allies and adversaries alike in some cases,

(02:20):
to the negotiating table.

Speaker 1 (02:23):
It's extraordinary Donald Trump is running circles around other world
leaders since he's been in power. He's closed the border
in the United States, NATO has agreed to increase defense spending,
and he's putting America first. Now his strength is highlighting
just how weak some of the other leaders are. Donald
Trump met with UK Prime Minister Kiirs Starmer on Monday,

(02:46):
and just watch how Starmer squirms when he's asked about
illegal immigration. The President makes it look easy dealing with
illegal migration.

Speaker 7 (02:55):
You must be envious of his record is such a
short period of time.

Speaker 8 (02:59):
Well, we've been discussing irregular Illegal migration is a huge
issue in both our countries. In the United Kingdom, it
is a real cause for concern and that's why we
must bear down on it.

Speaker 1 (03:15):
Yes, it is a huge issue in the UK, and
so Keres Starmer has been failing. Joining us now is
James Billow, newsroom.

Speaker 4 (03:25):
Editor at Unheard.

Speaker 1 (03:26):
James, It's great to see you again. Let's start with
this meeting between Donald Trump and Keir Starmer, Because for
all the things we can criticize Donald Trump for, I
think this meeting really shines the light on who's a
strong leader and who's a week one. In six months,
Donald Trump has closed the border. He's been carrying out
his promise of deporting illegals. Meanwhile, a legal immigration rather

(03:48):
in the UK is out of control, and Starmer was
asked about this and he was panicking when that topic
came up. But he also started to panic when it
came to the topic of free speech.

Speaker 4 (03:58):
Take a listen.

Speaker 9 (04:01):
Free speech today.

Speaker 10 (04:02):
Well, free speech is very important.

Speaker 2 (04:04):
I don't know if you're referring.

Speaker 11 (04:05):
To any place in particular, perhaps they are, but we've.

Speaker 8 (04:08):
Had free speech for a very very long time here,
so I'm very.

Speaker 6 (04:11):
Proud of alcohol.

Speaker 4 (04:13):
He says that.

Speaker 1 (04:14):
Yet, Pierce Starmer has approved an elite police task force
to track online posts about immigration. So detectives will be
taken from forces across the UK to take part in
a new investigations unit which aims to maximize social media
intelligence as the government aims to avoid riots. But of
course many are concerned about this and how this could

(04:36):
lead to restrictions of free speech.

Speaker 12 (04:38):
To James, yeah, and it's a pretty interesting use of
the words elite. I don't exactly know what kind of
elite team would be used to be monitoring social media
for anti migrant rhetoric. It's just bizarre. I just want
to pull out one of the comments that Starmer made
in that slightly awkward press conference he had with Trump,
he said, Britain has a long history of speech and yes,

(05:01):
that's entirely true, but it can go in the blink
of a night, and that is what appears to be
happening at the moment. It is not an effective use
of police resources to be investigating this kind of behavior.
It's something we saw during COVID when they were flying
out drones to break up people having picnics. And now
this kind of nanny statism seems to be accelerating and
then rolling onto online discourse and things like that. So yeah,

(05:24):
I think it's a very troubling in Diamond on the
state of free speech in Britain, and I can only
hope that someone at some stage will have the courage
to intervene.

Speaker 4 (05:33):
Yeah, I couldn't agree more.

Speaker 1 (05:34):
It's been you know, pointed out that Britain's two tier
justice system means that you can get more jail time
for an ill judged tweet than for some of the
worst offenses imaginable. The Telegraph had this piece highlighting that rapists,
pedophiles and terror offenders have been given shorter sentences than
Lucy Connelly who is, of course, the woman who was

(05:54):
sentenced to thirty one months in jail for an awful
tweet that she deleted. I just don't know how it's
possible for some of the worst offenders to be getting
lighter sentences than Lucy Connolly, someone who wrote an awful
post on social media.

Speaker 12 (06:10):
Thirty one months for a single tweet is actually beyond
parody and it's an extremely troubling step in the direction
of Britain's free speech travel. I'd also note that the
start of Keir Starmer's term, he was the one that
released about two thousand prisoners because of overcrowding. Well here's
an idea, care, why don't you let someone like Lucy
Connolly go instead of two or three of these rapists

(06:33):
that have already got out. Otherwise, it was from a
separate scheme, but still, the fact that some of these
serious offenders are only serving sentences up to two years
is just extraordinary. And by the way, Lucy Connolly was
not the only one to have been investigated for such
a tweet. We had a police constable retired police constable
who is not who had received a knock on the

(06:54):
door by a few police officers and all that they
could find were some very brexty things on his bookshelf
was left with a slap on the rest. But it's
just extraordinary to see where police results are being directed
and what kind of two test system we have here.

Speaker 1 (07:08):
Well, it makes a lot of sense that Nigerfrage is
ahead in the polls. Recent polls show that his party
Reform is ahead with twenty eight point four percent and
Labor has sunk to twenty three point nine percent, while
the Tories are on eighteen percent. Now, Donald Trump, in
that meeting with Kiirs Starm today seem to put kir
Starmer on notice.

Speaker 11 (07:27):
Just take a listen, and you know, politics is pretty simple.
I assume there's a thing going on between you and Nigel,
and it's okay. You know there's two parties, but generally speaking,
the one who cuts taxes the most, the one who
gives you the lowest energy prices and the best kind
of energy, the one that keeps you out of wars.

(07:49):
He's kept you out of wars. But the one that
keeps you out of wars. You know, you have a
few basics, and you can go back a thousand years,
a million years. Whoever does these things with low taxes,
keep us safe, keep us out of wars, no crime,
stop the crime, and in your case a big immigration component,
you know, because I know that your attitude has become

(08:13):
strong on immigration, strong under toughness of immigration. But I
think whoever's going to be I think I won because
I think I won because we had allows the president
to be honest with you.

Speaker 1 (08:24):
Look at how uncomfortable Kiss Starmer is there. Well, Donald
Trump is actually helping him out. But also if you
can kind of read between the lines, he's saying, really,
as long as Nigel Ferrage and Reform stay focused on
immigration and slashing the cost of living, well, they could
be on track to win the next election.

Speaker 13 (08:41):
Right.

Speaker 12 (08:41):
And to tell you the truth, all those topics that
he listed are pretty much the platform of reform, that
almost the anti platform of labor by contrast, And it
has been quite a stunning ascendency for Nigel Farage ever
since Kis Starmer came into power. His lead has ever
so gradually eroded and then quite spectacically fallen off in
the last few months. So yeah, the person who had

(09:04):
benefited most of this was Nigel Farag. And we had
the Southport stabbings which again really tickled the imagination of
the British public about the state of immigration in the country.
We are having serious issues when net zero at the moment,
and he is a big critic of that. And yeah,
he is one of the few politicians that will openly
say we need to close the borders and just figure

(09:24):
out what's going on here first. A lot of politicians
have slowly called up to speed. But I think voters
are craving authenticity here. And it's not just Stummer. By
the way, we had fourteen years of Toy rule before
then very little was achieved, and in fact, immigrations surged
under Boris Johnson, one of the British Prime ministers. And
it seems like Farage is the only one untainted by

(09:46):
the history of government and he might be the one
to come and sorted out.

Speaker 1 (09:49):
All Over the weekend, Donald Trump slammed European leaders over
mass migration as well, while also bragging about his shutting
of the US Mexico border, which he has every right
to do. And Donald Trump that mass migration is killing
the continent.

Speaker 4 (10:02):
Let's take a list.

Speaker 13 (10:04):
Stop the windmills.

Speaker 14 (10:05):
And I also, I mean, there's a couple of things
I could say, but on immigration, you better get your
act together. You're not going to have Europe anymore. You
got to get your act together. And we you know,
as you know, last month, we had nobody entering our country,
nobody shut it down, and we took out a lot
of bad people.

Speaker 13 (10:24):
That got there with Biden.

Speaker 14 (10:26):
Biden was a total stiff and what are he allowed
to happen?

Speaker 13 (10:30):
But you're allowing it.

Speaker 14 (10:31):
To happen to your countries and you've got to stop
this horrible invasion that's happening to Europe. Many countries in Europe,
some people, some leaders, have not let it happen, and
they're not getting the proper credit they should. I could
name them to you right now, but I'm not going
to embarrass the other ones. But stop this immigration is

(10:55):
killing Europe.

Speaker 1 (10:57):
James, He's pretty on point there, and of course, looking
at his track record in the space of just six months,
being able to shut the border is absolutely incredible.

Speaker 12 (11:07):
Absolutely I would say that was actually and has been
his biggest success in office. It has been completely unambiguous. Europe,
by contrast, is struggling. It's plagued by bureaucratic, bureaucratic gridlock,
and it always ends up following the path of least resistance,
which means kicking the problem into long grass and leading
to future leaders disort out. Now there has been some

(11:28):
rhetorical change about dealing with the immigration issue across the block,
but again very little is being done, not enough. Just
as a quick sidebar, there is one country and Trump
probably wouldn't have mentioned it, but it's the only country
in Europe that has had a successful center left government
throughout this whole period, and that is because it has
been tough on immigration. It is strict integration rules, strict

(11:50):
asilum rules, and strict immigration rules. And that is the
recipe for success in Europe and other leaders should just
follow it.

Speaker 1 (11:57):
I want to get your thoughts on the trade deal
with the EU. Donald Trump needed seventy five minutes to
secure his desired outcome from.

Speaker 4 (12:05):
The European Union.

Speaker 1 (12:06):
The early deal said that europell invest six hundred billion
dollars by seven hundred and fifty billion in American energy
supplies and the majority of European goods entering the US
now have fifteen percent tariff.

Speaker 6 (12:19):
Now.

Speaker 1 (12:19):
President of the European commission ershle Vondalayan also remarked how
Donald Trump was a tough negotiator.

Speaker 7 (12:28):
To thank President Trump personally for his personal commitment and
leadership to achieve this breakthrough. He's a tough negotiator, but
he is also a deal maker.

Speaker 1 (12:42):
It's interesting because Donald Trump has shown many experts who
were freaking out at the time about the tariffs and.

Speaker 4 (12:50):
What this could mean.

Speaker 1 (12:51):
You know, a lot of hysteria about what's going to
happen to the economy. You know, I suppose this was
out of the deal. What's your take on this?

Speaker 12 (13:00):
Well, that clip of US love on the Land, it
looked more like a hostage video than one of a
politician celebrating a deal, and in some respects that's exactly
what it was. That EU are undoubtedly the losers from
this deal. Not only have they just has the US
just secured a fifteen percent tariff yate on the block,
but it has also promised to spend billions of dollars, sorry,

(13:21):
hundreds of billions of dollars investment in military US and
military equipment. So this has been an unambiguous success for
Donald Trump as well. And while on the Land might say, oh,
this is a good deal, We're happy that we got
over the line, a lot of other European leaders were
not so happy. We had Francis PM, Francis Barrus say
this was a dark day for Europe, and then Victor

(13:42):
Orban of Hungary saying that Trump ate the EU for breakfast.
So very mixed results here and I don't think us
love onder Land. Will be going to sleep very easily tonight.

Speaker 4 (13:52):
Just finally, before I let you go.

Speaker 1 (13:53):
Donald Trump also had this to say about windmills, saying
they are a con job.

Speaker 15 (14:00):
Other thing I say to Europe, we will not allow
a windmill to be built in the United States. They're
killing us. They're killing the beauty of our scenery.

Speaker 11 (14:08):
Our valleys are beautiful planes And I'm not talking about airplanes.

Speaker 15 (14:13):
I'm talking about beautiful planes, beautiful areas.

Speaker 11 (14:17):
In the United States. And you look up and you
see windmills all over the place. It's a horrible thing.
It's the most expensive form of energy.

Speaker 9 (14:25):
It's no good.

Speaker 15 (14:26):
They're made in China, almost all of them.

Speaker 11 (14:30):
When they start to rust and rod in eight years,
you can't really turn them off.

Speaker 9 (14:34):
You can't bear them.

Speaker 15 (14:35):
They won't let you bury the propellers. You know, the props,
because there are a certain type of fiber that doesn't.

Speaker 9 (14:42):
Go well with the land.

Speaker 2 (14:43):
That's what they say.

Speaker 15 (14:43):
The environmentalists say you can't bury them because the fiber
doesn't go well with the land.

Speaker 9 (14:49):
In other words, if you.

Speaker 15 (14:50):
Bury it, it will harm our soil. The whole thing
is a conjob. It's very expensive.

Speaker 4 (14:57):
He certainly landed some punches.

Speaker 12 (14:58):
James Donald Trump's anti the why before windmills goes back
a long way. And I'm not necessarily anti green energy,
but I completely agree with the fact that it cannot
be the sole source of energy for any nation. And
this is where the West seems to be really tying
one hand behind its back because it has to be
supported by other types of energy. And America it's self sufficient,

(15:22):
it's energy independent. It's less of a problem for them.
But in countries like Germany that have suffered so much
over the last three years because it has turned off
its nuclear power plants, it is now how to rely
on other countries to provide its power. So I think
when you have the wars like Russia going on, what's
gone on Upraane driving up these electricity prices, you cannot
rely on windmills. Who Yes, the energy powers are intermittent,

(15:45):
and the recycling ability is actually pretty low. So in
some respects Donal Trump is exactly right there, and I
think Europe can once again take a lesson from.

Speaker 6 (15:53):
Him on that.

Speaker 1 (15:53):
James Bilow, newsroom editor at Unheard, thank you so much
for joining us.

Speaker 4 (15:57):
Really great to speak with you.

Speaker 1 (16:04):
It's time for media meltdowns, and since the cancelation of
Stephen Cobbet's show that was losing tens of millions of
dollars a year as well as its audience, the hysterical
leftist media has claimed it's Donald Trump's fault and this
is the dismantling of our democracy. And now protesters are
taken to the streets of New York City in a

(16:24):
demonstration that is so powerful it's bound to bring the
show back.

Speaker 13 (16:34):
And I think that's disgusting. But we can't even depend.

Speaker 10 (16:38):
On the courts of offend on the marketing. And that
is why we are here today to be maliciously compliant
to our First Amendment rate to stand up to this regime.

Speaker 13 (16:53):
And that's exactly what this is. Here's a receip this
is not an administration.

Speaker 1 (16:59):
Oh watch out or the Late Show rolled out the
red carpet for members of the leftist media. Since twenty
twenty two, Stephen Colbert hosted more than one hundred and
seventy left leaning guests and just one Republican, according to
a study by NewsBusters that was reported in The New
York Post, and Fox News is also reporting that the

(17:19):
show featured at left wing journalists.

Speaker 4 (17:22):
More than two hundred times.

Speaker 13 (17:24):
Now.

Speaker 1 (17:24):
Colbert hosted journalists such as Annison Cooper, Jake Tapper, Rachel Madow,
and Joy Reid. But I have to say one of
my favorite moments had to be when CNN's Caitlyn Collins
appeared during last year's election campaign, where she was insisting
that Donald Trump was struggling to compete with the younger
and far more talented Kamala Harris.

Speaker 16 (17:46):
Trump has kind of been thrown on his heels by this,
and he's not really sure how to go after Vice
President Harris. He knew his attack lines on President Biden.
He really has struggled with how to go after someone
who's twenty years younger than him, a.

Speaker 4 (18:00):
Different gender, a different race.

Speaker 16 (18:02):
It's kind of been this moment where he has not
been able to coal us around a single attack line.
I know you guys are objective over there that you
just report the News as it is.

Speaker 9 (18:13):
Oh, I know a CNN makes it, and I know
that that's supposed to be a lab like I wasn't
supposed to be.

Speaker 4 (18:17):
But I guess it is brilliant.

Speaker 1 (18:21):
Even Stephen Colbert's audience had to laugh at that one.
But let's just check in on CNN's Kaitlyn Collins last
week at the White House, when Tulsi Gabbard released explosive
new documents showing the Obama administration manufactured intelligence to.

Speaker 4 (18:36):
Push Russia Gate. What does Kaitlyn Collins ask.

Speaker 1 (18:40):
If Tulsy Gabbard is doing this to score points with
the president.

Speaker 16 (18:44):
To people who believe that you're only releasing these documents
now to improve your standing with the president after he
said that your intelligence assessment we're wrong.

Speaker 17 (18:52):
The only people who are suggesting that the Director of
National Intelligence would release evidence to try to boost her
standing with the president are the people in this room
who instantly trying to sow distrust and chaos amongst the
president's cabinet.

Speaker 4 (19:03):
And it is not working.

Speaker 17 (19:04):
I who bout the attorney, I am Wilburn. I will
just answer your question directly. I am with the President
of the United States every day. He has the utmost
confidence and Director Gabbard he always has, he contends to,
and that is true of his entire cabinet, who is
all working as one team to deliver on the promises
this president means.

Speaker 1 (19:22):
And how's the mainstream media covering the new revelations while
they're largely ignoring it?

Speaker 4 (19:28):
ABC, NBC, CBS.

Speaker 1 (19:30):
Have barely dedicated any time to it after hyping the
Russia Gate hoax for some time, because the mainstream media
must continue with their anti Trump agenda. This weekend, while
President Donald Trump was signing a historic trade deal with
the EU, which means that the US will get seven
times more tariff revenue and six hundred billion dollars more

(19:51):
in direct investment, the media asks him, this.

Speaker 8 (19:56):
Part of the rushis d Jeffrey Estein story?

Speaker 9 (20:00):
How you got to be kidding with it? No, I
had nothing to do with it. Only you would think
that that had nothing.

Speaker 1 (20:07):
To do with it, jenningis now is Jeff Krueer, broadcaster
and commentator, Jeff, Great to see you a bit to
unpack there, But first of all, can I get your
reaction to those pathetic protests protesting in New York City
Now that Stephen Colbert Show has been axed.

Speaker 10 (20:28):
I love that one of them was wearing a mask.
I thought that was so priceless because you know, Colbert
was the one that was trying to promote the vaccine,
and he was a guy constantly saying that we had
to mask up, and you know, he was always pushing
the whole narrative that the Biden administration wanted. I mean,
as you said, he's only had one Republican guest. He's

(20:50):
just such a tool of the Democrat Party and that's
why these Democrat politicians are so upset. But you know,
a study was done of Jay Leno when he was
on the air twenty two years and of all the
jokes that he did, half of them were Republican and
half of them were Democrat, which is why he led
in the ratings for nineteen years. Now, all of these

(21:10):
hosts are just one sided. All they do is attack
Donald Trump and the Republicans. So they just they say,
we don't even want half of America. And that's why
I think their ratings are so poor. I mean, Stephen
Colbert has less some one third of the audience that
Johnny Carson had back in his heading.

Speaker 1 (21:29):
Yeah, no, it's an important point. Look, what do you
make of the major networks now mainly ignoring these new
revelations released by Tulcy Gabbards, who's revealed new evidence that
the Obama administration manufactured intelligence to essentially push the Russia
Gate hoax. Are you surprised that now the mainstream networks
don't really want to cover these developments.

Speaker 10 (21:52):
Well, the mainstream news media just wants to talk about
Epstein because they believe that's a way to really topple
Donald Trump. I mean, all Epstein all the time and
anything that of course points a finger at Obama and
the setup and the whole Russian collusion narrative, they're not
going to touch. I mean, they didn't do it back
in twenty sixteen or seventeen. They're not going to do

(22:14):
it now, even though the evidence is overwhelming that there
was collusion not between Donald Trump and the Russians, but
between the deep State and Hillary and Obama to try to,
of course subvert Donald Trump's presidency. It was an attack
on the people that voted for Donald Trump. They tried
to limit his effectiveness, and they really harassed him during
the entire first term with all of this nonsense. Now

(22:38):
he's learned he's really surrounding himself with a lot of
people that are loyalists that are going to help him
with his agenda. So his second term is a lot
stronger because he doesn't have this kind of thing hanging
over his head.

Speaker 1 (22:51):
Let's turn to another issue that's hardly being covered by
the mainstream media, and that is the Cincinnati Police Department
has now launched an investigation after a group of thugs
were filmed baiting a man and a woman to the ground.
Authorities have charged at least five suspects after that violent
attack that took place in downtown Cincinnati. Jeff, you know,

(23:12):
it's horrific. Why is this not getting the coverage that
it deserves.

Speaker 10 (23:17):
It's sad, it really should and I have to say
it could very well be a hate crime. It could
be racially motivated. The victims were white, the attackers were black.
This is absolutely tragic. You know what's really the worst
part about it. You had one hundred people that were around,
You had people filming, You had people yelling and screaming

(23:39):
and chanting and encouraging the attackers. One Only one person
out of all of those folks called nine to one
one And that just is a real sad indictment of
what is going on in some of our cities in
the United States, and it's a real challenge for the
leaders there in Cincinnati to deal with it. And of
course Army Dyllon, the Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights,

(24:03):
is looking into it as a potential heat crime.

Speaker 1 (24:08):
An easy Jet flight from London to Glasgow was forced
to make an emergency landing after a passenger began shouting
death to Trump and America. Footage of the incident has
gone viral online. Let's take a look.

Speaker 13 (24:29):
I sit down.

Speaker 1 (24:45):
The forty two year old suspect has been arrested and
is now under investigation by counter terrorism officials.

Speaker 4 (24:52):
But Jeff, can I get your reaction to this?

Speaker 10 (24:55):
Well, I mean, when I fly, I don't want to
be encountering someone like that. I mean, that's another person
that has, you know, Trump derangement syndrome, and we see
it all over this country and obviously it's a problem
really all over the world. And yeah, it's really brings
back memories of nine to eleven really and it makes

(25:18):
us worry about, you know, the threats that are out
there and the people that really do want to do
harm in the name of whatever, whether it's free Palestine,
whether it's the Iranians, whatever kind of cause they may have.
So we've always got to be vigilant, always got to
be making sure that we protect our travelers and people
that are just trying to get from one place to another.

(25:38):
But let's just say that's very disturbing. We've had a
number of incidents of people yelling free Palestine going on
at tax here in this country in recent weeks.

Speaker 1 (25:49):
I want to turn to the Epstein files. Look, I
know that plenty in the mainstream media are starting to
put all the attention on the Epstein files. It can
somehow damage Donald Trump, But I do want more transparency
around this. We know that Gallaine Maxwell has answered questions
from Justice Department officials about one hundred different people potentially

(26:11):
linked to Jeffrey Epstein, and she was reportedly granted immunity,
and the President was asked about this today.

Speaker 11 (26:19):
Well, I'm allowed to give her a pardon. But nobody's
approached me with it. Nobody's asked me about it. It's
in the news about that that aspect of it. But
right now it would be inappropriate to talk about it.

Speaker 1 (26:36):
I think there still is a lot of frustration out
there that there are potentially powerful people that should be
behind bars.

Speaker 4 (26:43):
Do you think we're any closer to ever seeing that.

Speaker 10 (26:46):
I think we're closer because you had the meeting with
Gleeine Maxwell. Supposedly we're still pushing for grand jury materials
to be released in New York. I know the judge
in Florida denied it. You're going to have have Congress
address this when they come back from their recess. You're
going to have more action on this, and I do
think the Trump Justice Department will do more. I agree

(27:10):
with you. I mean, I think this is a case
that we need more transparency. We need to have the
same standard of justice for everyone. If you're rich and powerful,
you should not be able to get away with horrific
crimes against young women. And I, for one, do not
want to see Galline Maxwell given a pardon. She was
a partner in this criminal enterprise. She recruited the young

(27:32):
women for Jeffrey Epstein, the victims in this case. Do
you not want to see her pardoned? And I really
don't either. I think where she's where she deserves to be,
and that is in prison.

Speaker 3 (27:43):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (27:43):
No, I couldn't agree with you more let's talk about
the Democrats. Their approval rating has plunged to a thirty
five year low. Now sixty three percent of registered voters
view Democrats unfavorably, which is dramatically marking at the lowest
riting since nine at ninety This is according to a
Wall Street Journal survey, and that abysmal rating for the Democrats,

(28:06):
of course, comes against the backsdrop of also lackluster figures
for Donald Trump and Republicans. Trump's approval rating sits at
forty six percent, but although his appro approval rating is
not great, the Democrats are faring far worse.

Speaker 4 (28:20):
What do you put this down to?

Speaker 10 (28:23):
No leadership, no message, no vision. They're really lost. I
mean all they have is Trump hate. I mean that's
all they really do is just talk about how much
they can't stand Donald Trump. But they're not really giving
Americans any answers about the problems that we have as
a country. And remember the twelve out of the last
sixteen years we had Democrat presidents and Trump is coming

(28:46):
along and getting a lot of things done, and I
think the American people see a contrast, So why would
they want to go back to the Democrats? I really
think they need new leaders. They need a new message,
and sadly what we're seeing among Zo Ron Madani and
so many is just a further to the left, more socialism,

(29:08):
and I don't think that is going to be the
answer for the Democrats. If the Democrats have any hope,
they need to move back to the center, and that's
not where the party is going right now.

Speaker 4 (29:16):
Yeah. No, that would be good to see. We can
only hope.

Speaker 1 (29:19):
Jeff Creweer, broadcaster and commentator, Thanks so much for your time.

Speaker 3 (29:23):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (29:28):
Jenningis now is skynews dot com dot a uclumnist de
Luise Roberts. Louise, great to see you. I want to
start with the latest from the Coldplay kiss cam drama
because Astronomer has now hired actress Gwyneth Paltrow to be
a temporary spokesperson following that drama, and she appeared in
his short video alluding it to the viral moment that

(29:49):
Astronomer's former CEO was caught on camera with a woman
who was not his wife.

Speaker 4 (29:53):
Let's take a look.

Speaker 5 (29:55):
Thank you for your interest in Astronomer. Hi, I'm Gwyneth Paltrow.
I've been hired on a very temporary basis to speak
on behalf of the three hundred plus employees at Astronomer.
Astronomer has gotten a lot of questions over the last
few days and they wanted me to answer the most
common ones. Yes, Astronomer is the best place to run

(30:18):
APATCHE airflow, unifying the experience of running data mL and
AI pipelines at scale. We've been thrilled so many people
have a newfound interest in data workflow automation. As for
the other questions we received, Yes, there is still room
available at our Beyond Analytics event in September. We will

(30:39):
now be returning to what we do best, delivering game
changing results for our customers. Thank you for your interest
in Astronomer.

Speaker 4 (30:49):
What did you make of this? Sluays, you think it's
a good PAO strategy.

Speaker 18 (30:52):
I think it's gold standard past strategy, and that seems
to be the view across the board that what could
be better than hiring the x waw of cold plays
lead sing a Chris Martin to do your kind of
damage repair in a way and Gwitt it is brilliant
because she's so deadpan and roll about and even when
sort of you know, addressing questions like what the actual

(31:13):
she answers with the question about data workflow.

Speaker 9 (31:16):
Incredible.

Speaker 18 (31:17):
I mean I've learned more about that company than I
ever hoped to in a way. And what it's done
is it's really moves them away from the grubbiness of
the affair and all the heartbreak and to a brand
that people will remember well after that scandal has faded,
and people will kind of like them because it's been
very clever.

Speaker 9 (31:34):
They've lend into.

Speaker 18 (31:35):
The crisis rather than put out sort of vanilla statements
or you know, told their staff there's nothing to see here,
everything's fine, because you know, when it happened, we all thought,
on my god, that's the end of that business. So
been very clever to play it this way and to
hire Gwinney, who has just you know, acetd it.

Speaker 9 (31:51):
Yeah, it hasn't been right.

Speaker 4 (31:53):
She did a great job.

Speaker 1 (31:54):
Now, actress Sidney Sweeney is facing some heat after her
latest brand deal and advertising campaign with American Eagle. The campaign,
titled Sydney Sweeney has Great Genes, has generated mixed reactions
on social media. Now, many people are happy with the ads,
some are saying that this is you know, the death
of wogue ads, but there are also some probably on

(32:15):
the far left going crazy and going so far to
to say that this is Nazi propaganda.

Speaker 5 (32:20):
Look at this, you guys are complaining about that Sydney
Sweeney and jeans, and so I went in saw it.

Speaker 13 (32:28):
That's Nazi propaganda. Wow.

Speaker 5 (32:32):
I thought it was going to be like kind of
bad that's.

Speaker 9 (32:37):
Going to be in history book.

Speaker 1 (32:40):
It's interesting to note, though, with all the kind of comments.

Speaker 4 (32:44):
Like that that are online.

Speaker 1 (32:46):
The shares of American Eagle actually went up after that
Sydney Sweeney ad.

Speaker 4 (32:50):
But you know, of.

Speaker 1 (32:50):
Course people will say what they want on social media.

Speaker 4 (32:53):
What do you make of these comments?

Speaker 18 (32:55):
The ads aren't offensive, but the comments are. Anyone who's
going to use the Nazi word in this reference and
not be talking about World War II or the persecution
of Jewish people is making a very obscene and offensive
statement to Jewish society and society as a whole. And
I mean it's a play on words great genes, you know, denim,

(33:16):
great genes, genetic material, and that's all it is.

Speaker 9 (33:18):
But look, if the spinout.

Speaker 18 (33:20):
Is that it's a celebration of the end of work advertising,
I'm all for it, because every ad should be promoting
the product, not promoting at a gender about diversity or
gender or whatever.

Speaker 9 (33:31):
So you know, if the sales have gone.

Speaker 18 (33:33):
Up, yes, amazing, I'm a lot surprising.

Speaker 9 (33:37):
Really yeah, way of course.

Speaker 1 (33:39):
Now let's turn to the Royal News and Netflix insider
has spoken into the Daily Mail and didn't hold back
when it came to Harry and Meghan. The insider claim
that another nail in the coffin for Harry and Meghan
Markles one hundred million dollar Netflix deal was that her
Knapper Valley wine just hasn't been selling. They've also fallen
out with a lists. According to this inside, what can

(34:00):
you tell us?

Speaker 18 (34:01):
Well, yes, the wine that Meghan has produced via vineyards.
You can see her in her documentary sipping the wine
when she's sort of making the food and sprinkling upon
her edible flowers and so forth, it hasn't been selling.
There was an initial batch which did sell out, but
that was more down to the low volume than the
quality or the price point of apparent, it's very expensive
as well, and even in Montecito people are worried about

(34:23):
the price of wine. Would you believe it? So yeah,
this is apparently another nail in the coffin for that
Netflix deal, which will finish in September, although I do
think there is a chance that Netflix will try and
keep them idly in the background if the relationship changes.
Obviously Netflix want to be right on top of that,
as does any publisher or broadcaster on the planet. And

(34:45):
also I think that they sort of they're discussing a
first option deal. So in the event that Meghan Harry
creates something God forbid we do actually want to.

Speaker 9 (34:55):
Watch, they'll get first option on it. So that's interesting.

Speaker 18 (34:57):
I don't think Netflix are totally going to cut them,
but they'll be very clever to keep them close without
being contractually obliged to them.

Speaker 4 (35:06):
That makes sense.

Speaker 1 (35:07):
Now, King Charles is reportedly growing wary of Prince Harry
and Meghan Markle, with Royal insiders suggesting that there maybe
in an ulterior motive behind Harry has kind of moves
to potentially patch up the relationship with his father. Look,
I don't blame King Charles for being cautious. What can
you tell us about this one?

Speaker 18 (35:24):
I think the royals no, In particular, the King knows
that every meeting and every sort of repatriation with Harry
carries a huge risk, because every conversation could end up
in a podcast or a book, and there's no confidentiality
clearly around what's being shared with them and Harry and Meghan.
So the fact that the deal's now finished with the Netflix,

(35:45):
Harry is obviously worried about where the next revenue is
coming from. I'm more feeling that the reconciliation is about
that rather than any genuine sort of sorry or apology
to his family and all that point, I'm bewildered as
to why Harry cannot see that's saying sorry in private
and publicly has to be the first step in any

(36:05):
reconciliation with his family. In any family to dispute, people
come together and say I'm sorry for what I said,
I forgive you, and then you move on. That has
not happened, And I think that's because Harry believes he's
in the right's vicdom and victim as well, and Meghan.

Speaker 9 (36:20):
Believes she's in the right as well. So what have
they got to say sorry for?

Speaker 18 (36:23):
Whereas the rest of the world is thinking you've destroyed
that relationship.

Speaker 9 (36:27):
It is all on you.

Speaker 1 (36:28):
Yeah, And it's been so sad to see and it's
unbelievable that even after all these years now at the
point where he still haven't said sorry, I still find.

Speaker 18 (36:36):
It hard five years after makes it It's amazing, Yeah, believable.

Speaker 1 (36:39):
Princess Charlotte and her father, Prince William have made a
surprise appearance in Switzerland to see England's women's soccer team
compete in the twenty twenty five Euro Finals.

Speaker 4 (36:49):
What can you tell us about this one?

Speaker 18 (36:50):
Yes, they went to Switzerland, Dad and daughter to see
the Lioness's thrash.

Speaker 9 (36:54):
Spain, which is great.

Speaker 18 (36:55):
It was actually it was a penalty shootout which sort
of sealed the game. But how wonderful to see at
fronton center at her first international football match with Dad,
she met the Lioness's She also met the Spanish team
and they released a very sort of beautiful joint statement
afterwards congratulating the Lionesses on their win.

Speaker 9 (37:12):
But how cool it is to see.

Speaker 18 (37:14):
Her with more sporting angles as well, and I do
feel maybe this is part of a bigger plan to
in the future make her a Royal sports ambassador, because
of course her father is a patron of the FA,
the Football Association, and mum's very tired in with Wimbledon,
so I can see that path for Charlotte even though
she's only a tender age of ten. I really think

(37:34):
that's what they'd be planning for her in the future.

Speaker 9 (37:37):
Because that is a sport. Is such a bond between
the public and the royal family.

Speaker 4 (37:42):
Oh that's very exciting.

Speaker 1 (37:44):
Now we have a Norwegian princess. Princess Ingrid Alexandra of
Norway is in Australia preparing to start her.

Speaker 4 (37:50):
Studies at the University of Sydney.

Speaker 1 (37:52):
The twenty one year old royal says that she's looking
forward to it.

Speaker 4 (37:55):
It's certainly exciting for us here.

Speaker 18 (37:57):
It is to have a royal member at the Sydney
un University exactly. She's doing a three years Bachelor of
Arts with believer focus on international relations and politics, which
will come in quite handy because one day she will
be Queen of Norway. She's second in line behind her father,
the Cram Prince.

Speaker 9 (38:14):
But yeah, you can see she's looking.

Speaker 18 (38:15):
Very relaxed in jeans and trainers and a sweatshirt and
no airs and graces. Apparently she's going to be living
in residence as well on site and no kind of
posh flat up the road with the show for taking
you to school every day or take it to uniar
every day. Rather so, I do think it's lovely that
that we're seeing royals be as normal as possible. And
of course she's following in the footsteps of her grandfather

(38:37):
and her father who also traveled and studied abroad.

Speaker 4 (38:40):
And she's getting the real Australian college experience. Exciting. Luise Robert,
thank you so much.

Speaker 9 (38:47):
Good to see.

Speaker 1 (38:51):
And that is power Allah, thank you for your company.
