The Prince and Princess of Wales, William and Kate, are in America. So all eyes are on them for their big moment, right? Not exactly. Thanks to William s brother, Harry, and his wife, Meghan Markle, dropping a trailer for their upcoming Netflix show.
00:00:57.200Thanks to William's brother, Harry, and his wife, Meghan Markle, dropping a trailer.
00:01:03.260They had to do it right now for their upcoming Netflix show.
00:01:07.080They had to wait until William and Kate got into America to drop their Netflix trailer.
00:01:12.840Because you know how it's like you have the two kids and everyone's paying attention to the one kid because he's doing something cute or something fun.
00:01:20.380And after a little while, the other kid gets annoyed and the other kid does something to get attention.
00:08:21.460But Kate, behind the scenes, and I was the first person to report this, actually hauled Megan over the coals over the way that she was speaking to her staff at Kensington Palace.
00:08:32.580Megan has been accused numerous times by former staff members of being a bully.
00:08:41.300And Kate called her up and said, look, this isn't the way that you treat my staff.
00:08:45.420This is not how you speak to my staff.
00:08:48.900And so from that moment on, Megan has added in for Kate.
00:08:52.760There's obviously the infamous bridesmaid dress fitting where they each made each other cry, if you believe that.
00:09:01.300And there's no positive relationship between them anymore.
00:09:04.260So now, rather than taking the high road and doing something that would shock the world by maybe paying tribute to them, saying something kind about them and and just taking issue with maybe royal life and how oppressive it could be.
00:09:17.980It looks like we haven't seen it, but it looks like they're going to trash them.
00:09:21.320And and there are other indicators that they're going to trash them, including the timing of this release, the Netflix series at all.
00:09:30.720You know, within moments, it feels like after Queen Elizabeth's death, as as King Charles is still getting his footing as the new monarch.
00:09:39.820And on top of that, just as Will and Kate come to America and Megan's stenographer or that he likes to call himself a journalist, Omid Scobie, he he decides to actually give up to give it up and and sort of say why they did this trailer.
00:09:57.540When they did, he tweets out if tomorrow is Prince William's Super Bowl, here's your halftime show and releases, includes a link to the Netflix series, to the to the trailer.
00:10:08.640So they're not even trying to hide that they're trying to poke William and Kate.
00:10:15.320No, Megan, there always used to be this sort of unwritten rule in the royal family that when principals are on tour overseas, the other senior members of the royal family step back and they allow.
00:10:27.540The tour and the good work on the tour to take the spotlight, well, that obviously all went out the window with Harry and Megan, even when they were in the royal family.
00:10:36.740But this is egregious, Megan. They released the trailer on the day that William and Kate were trying to build up to this big Earthshot prize, which is their moment in Boston.
00:10:49.080And they knew it would steal all of the attention away from William and Kate.
00:10:52.840It would make the visit incredibly awkward for William and Kate.
00:10:55.500And look, as far as I'm concerned now, Megan, and from speaking to my royal sources, there's no going back from this.
00:11:03.220This trailer was a declaration of war by the Sussexes.
00:11:07.900I'll tell you behind the scenes, King Charles has held out hope for some time that he's going to be able to come to some sort of peace deal with Harry and the royal family.
00:11:18.440And I think, Megan, that is incredibly naive.
00:11:21.600I think William has known for some time that this relationship is as good as over.
00:11:27.380Because remember, it's not just the Netflix series.
00:11:30.440We've then got Harry's autobiography, Spare, coming in the first week of January.
00:11:35.940And as you say, the Queen is barely in the ground.
00:12:20.200Strip their children of the ability to be a prince and a princess.
00:12:24.220And show them that they are now shut out of this family because of the lies that they're telling and the destruction that they want to reap.
00:12:32.000What would be the timing of that, Dan?
00:12:33.840Is there a risk to King Charles if he does that after the actual series drops so it looks like a tit for tat?
00:12:43.280Isn't he supposed to be above that kind of thing, getting bothered by a silly Netflix documentary?
00:12:48.820So if you were advising the royal family, what would you advise about timing on stripping of titles?
00:12:53.900Yeah, he's been holding this as almost like a little threat.
00:13:20.840This isn't just about a Netflix series.
00:13:22.560This is about a long-running operation to try and paint the royal family as a racist institution.
00:13:30.100And we know in these woke times, Meghan, that could have serious consequences, especially for the way that the British royal family is viewed overseas.
00:13:38.180So they want to cause ultimate damage.
00:13:40.320I think the royal family have to become far more aggressive now in how they deal with Harry and Meghan, how they deal with their lives.
00:13:49.360When the Queen was alive, she was old school and she was calm and she was understated.
00:13:53.720And of course, that's why she took a couple of days after the Oprah Winfrey interview and released that very famous statement that we'll never forget,
00:14:01.400where she said, recollections may vary in regards to the interview.
00:14:11.040And William and Charles are much more modern media operators.
00:14:15.040They've got to get with the programme here and actually understand that Harry and Meghan are out to destroy the institution that they have dedicated their lives to.
00:14:24.740And I think what's most revolting about it for me is this is about undermining the life's work of Queen Elizabeth II.
00:14:31.720We always hear Harry and Meghan talk about how much respect they had for the late Queen Meghan, like how they did.
00:14:38.460I mean, they've even used an image of Meghan doing her best to look sad at the funeral in the trailer for the Netflix documentary.
00:14:46.040They have used that period of grief as a marketing opportunity.
00:14:51.140Just think for a moment how wrong that is.
00:14:53.660Well, you raise a good point because the Queen was able to dismiss them with a three line, you know, three word line in a way that King Charles cannot and Prince William cannot.
00:15:05.960It's a new day and the public doesn't have the same adoration for them that they did for Queen Elizabeth.
00:15:13.240So the institution was Queen Elizabeth in the eyes of the public.
00:15:17.820And so, yes, they loved it and they loved her and they would be deferential to her and they wouldn't really agree with a critic of hers.
00:15:25.500And if these guys don't learn how to street fight because the Sussexes are clearly ready for a street fight and itching for one, they're going to lose.
00:15:34.260Like they're going to have to get a little vicious or they're going to lose this PR battle.
00:15:39.220And that means the end of the monarchy.
00:15:41.140I mean, it's a pretty lengthy, robust institution.
00:15:45.100And I'm sure they'd hate to see it go down because of some upset wokesters out in Montecito.
00:16:38.380That's exactly what Harry is trying to do.
00:16:40.660And whether he's doing it because of the malign influence of his wife, Meghan, who we know has already destroyed her own family, the Markels, I think, knowing the Markels very well, incredibly unfairly.
00:16:54.720So it doesn't really matter what the motivation is, if it's Meghan's fault, if it's being driven by Harry.
00:17:00.060The point is, King Charles, you've got to understand your son no longer has your best intentions in mind at all.
00:17:08.060And I think at the moment that they accept that, the moment that actually the royal family can start a prop fight.
00:17:16.040They would do well to put themselves through the torture that we've had to and listen to some of these podcasts she's doing, because there's a line in at the very end of the most recent one in which she yet again telegraphs a warning to them.
00:17:30.100And similar as she's been doing in some of the print pieces, she's given interviews in saying, you know, I'm silent for now, but I might I might not stay silent.
00:17:39.780She says in the latest one, this is what I wanted to leave you with.
00:17:43.280This is the last line of her last podcast.
00:17:44.900This is what I want to leave you with.
00:17:45.980It's from a couplet within a piece of writing by a Greek poet.
00:17:49.000And he says, what didn't you do to bury me?
00:18:25.180At the end of the day, Megan, this is the next six months is the most risky period for the royal family, because I do believe in my soul of souls.
00:18:35.060I do believe that at the end of the day, the public in Britain have already seen through Harry and Meghan.
00:18:40.440And I think in time, the American public and internationally people will see through them, too.
00:18:45.140But this is their moment of maximum power where they have an opportunity, at least, to cause potentially terminal damage to the royal family in the TV series, in the book, in a series of interviews that they have planned.
00:18:59.080At a time when King Charles is weak, is grieving, is not conscious of the job he's trying to do because he's preparing for his coronation, which is going to be a huge event, which usually monarchs are able to spend a great deal of time focusing on.
00:19:15.320But in this case, he can't because there is a threat that comes very seriously from Harry and Meghan.
00:19:20.660I will say, however, though, at the end of the day, Meghan, I do believe that this couple are not going to be beloved in the way that Queen Elizabeth II was and Prince Philip or Princess Diana or William and Kate.
00:19:36.780I really think that in the end, the public are going to consider them much more like the Duke of Windsor, who abdicated from the throne because of his love for the American divorcee, Wallace Simpson.
00:19:48.000Because I think fundamentally, British people at least respect members of the royal family who are not out for the betterment of themselves and who are focused on a life of duty.
00:19:59.740So I think in the long run, Harry and Meghan will not be supported by the public.
00:20:05.740In a way, we've seen the difference that we've seen the difference between that approach on each side this week.
00:20:12.960So William and Kate come to America to promote this Earthshot charity that he's pushing.
00:20:17.720You get like just over a million dollars.
00:20:19.800Five people do if they're working in profound ways on climate change.
00:20:23.860And everybody cares about climate change.
00:20:25.520You know, we have political fights over it, but very few people are left disagreeing that it exists and is a problem that we'd like to help reverse.
00:20:33.160It's just a question of how and how aggressively and all that.
00:20:36.320So they come over here to sort of promote that.
00:20:38.440And in my view, Dan, and I don't, you know, I don't follow the Royals as closely as you do, but I keep an eye on them.
00:20:45.500These two do not seek a lot of attention.
00:20:47.620They don't they're not running around constantly coming in front of the cameras in America and trying to get on TV and trying to, you know, do charitable events that are also beneficial to them and the royal family, like a little bit here and there.
00:20:59.420But to me, it doesn't seem like they seek the spotlight that much.
00:22:45.340And they will be devastated that Harry and Megan have chosen to hijack it in the way that they have.
00:22:51.720But in terms of the trailer itself, I mean, this series is going to be a tale of victimhood.
00:22:58.200And sadly, Megan, in the woke media, we know that you can make lots of money these days for being a victim, especially if your victimhood is in some way connected to identity politics.
00:23:12.600I find it so terrible that she's chosen to go down this path because we grew up in the 80s and the 90s where we were told that we should live a colorblind life and we should do anything but look at everyone's inutiful characteristics and try and be victims.
00:23:29.800But Megan has realized there's actually a career in being a victim.
00:23:35.680Obviously, it's bizarre when you're trying to be a victim when you are two of the most privileged, the richest people in the world.
00:23:50.360And so that's why at the end of the day, when it comes to Megan, she has to focus on race because it is race, which is the one unquestionable area.
00:24:02.280And she knows it is the weak spot for the British royal family, which, let's be honest, is a white family.
00:24:28.100Before we move on from Kate, I wanted to point out, my producers pulled the event at which they grabbed a screen grab from this Commonwealth Day of Service in 2019, making Kate look angry.
00:24:55.380Hello, clearly giving her a warm embrace.
00:24:57.880And you can see Megan's face smiling in the photo and Kate's leaning in to give her a nice greeting.
00:25:02.860Weird, Dan, how that didn't make it into the trailer.
00:25:05.340Only the shots that will make it look like, oh, poor me, everyone's mean, got in there.
00:25:11.820Yeah, this is when they were still playing friends, Megan.
00:25:14.880And it was actually the year after at the same service when I had just broken the story of Megxit where you could cut the tension with a knife because by that point it all exploded into the open.
00:25:29.400But look, I don't think these two couples ever really got on, if I'm honest.
00:38:16.060And I won't do that now because, as I said, the focus needs to be on what happened within Buckingham Palace a couple of days ago.
00:38:24.480OK, so not only did she do the tweet that you talked about accusing her in-laws of a domestically abusing Meghan, but on this is also from your reporting May 7th, 2022.
00:38:35.380She tweeted out Harry and Meghan won't be allowed on the balcony.
00:38:39.000This is, I think, for the Platinum Jubilee.
00:38:41.540They're in a completely different category to Andrew.
00:39:05.840Did you think she wasn't going to stab you in the back?
00:39:08.080And I don't know what happened with this lady in waiting, but this was a disaster waiting to happen.
00:39:12.780And now I don't know whether she's consciously trying to cover up the fact that she was a hater before she ever stepped foot in there or she doesn't have a close tether on the truth just as a natural default.
00:39:24.080But either way, she tweets out this quote transcript of the discussion, Dan.
00:39:28.400And I'm like, oh, there's a transcript.
00:39:39.980Or if it was a transcript, Megan, that would suggest that she has entered Buckingham Palace with a recording device, which would lend to the other theory that actually she went in looking for something to go wrong.
00:40:54.980And by the way, Dan, just for context, as I understand it, this is an event at which they were talking about the global problem of abuse of that women suffer.
00:41:03.320So this it it might actually make some sense for her to be trying to determine what part of this global problem this woman is speaking.
01:24:17.900And I think what's important to say is that the situation that's going on in the Netherlands, you know, with the farmers that are fighting 3,000 of their farms being torn away from them by the Dutch government.
01:24:29.360This is a precursor of what is to come, because it seems that these climate obsessives are very, very focused on our food supply at a time when our food supply is extremely insecure globally.
01:24:44.300So why they'd be doing this now, which will be sure to make food price inflation worse, 100% is extremely peculiar.
01:24:55.760My problem with Prince William and his climate virtue signaling is that these people that do seem soft and nice, you know, they're just concerned about the planet.
01:25:03.960They seem to be aligning themselves with people that do believe in ripping 3,000 farms away from honest working people.
01:25:21.500They want to replace rolling hills, farms with, you know, wind turbines and solar panels.
01:25:28.680They want to create some sort of dystopian hell.
01:25:31.720And people have every right to speak out about it.
01:25:35.020And I think that unless people start speaking out about this, it's going to be too late.
01:25:39.760So the iron fist of tyranny is coming down hard and it's coming down fast and it's being done in the name of climate change.
01:25:47.320I think we are repeatedly using crises to be able to cover up for a real agenda, which is control.
01:25:54.160And like you said, every normal person, I think, can acknowledge that I think that the climate has changed as a result of human behavior.
01:26:03.060I do not subscribe to the idea for one second that we're in some sort of crisis that means we have to tear land and livelihood away from people.
01:26:12.960I think that very idea is dangerous. And I think organizations such as the European Union, which, thank God, the UK left, are perpetuating this dangerous idea and these dangerous authoritarian policies.
01:26:29.380You know, I mentioned to my audience last week or earlier this week that one of the great things about about Holland is you go over there.
01:26:36.660It is a it is a country that's underwater. Amsterdam is underwater. It's below sea level.
01:26:41.460And Michael Schellenberger has done a lot of work on this thing. It's not great.
01:26:44.700You know, we don't especially if you have oceanfront property, which I don't.
01:26:47.400But if you do, you don't really want seawater to rise two feet.
01:26:51.200We understand this is bad and, you know, this could cause a lot of life loss and food loss and so on.
01:26:55.780However, he's been saying there is a modern day example of how we can make that work, even in the worst case scenario, the Greta Thunberg extremist example.
01:27:08.320And all we need to do is look at the Dutch to see how they've done it.
01:27:11.620The engineers over there have figured out a way to live, notwithstanding the fact that they are underwater.
01:27:16.740Right. Yeah, there's this really fun saying. I don't know if you know it.
01:27:21.180It goes, God created the Dutch and the Dutch created the Netherlands because we didn't just build amazing dikes to protect us from, well, being flooded because we are below sea level in most places in the country.
01:27:34.340But we also created land from the sea.
01:27:37.380So, yes, that's one of the things that we should be very proud of here in the Netherlands and our Dutch heritage.
01:27:42.360And I do agree with you. There are obviously technological answers to all of these questions.
01:27:47.540Same thing goes with the farmers. There are technological answers to lowering nitrogen emissions if you think that nitrogen emissions are a problem to begin with.
01:27:56.720But the thing is, is that the answer with our elites never lies in those things.
01:28:02.420They never allow those solutions to be presented.
01:28:07.520The solution always lays in you giving up your rights, not them, but you.
01:28:14.440So that is what happens every single time.
01:28:17.300And the only difference I would say with tyranny in the past and tyranny now is that now they use pretty words to hide it and people fall for it.
01:28:26.940So like Dominique just said, you know, climate change is being used as a vehicle to take people's right away.
01:28:34.040We will see the same thing maybe with things like transhumanism in the future.
01:28:38.420The moment that Western leaders create or talk about a crisis and say to people the moral thing to do is X, Y, Z, which always, by the way, is give up your rights, then people will do it.
01:28:52.340And they've seen that they were very successful in that in the past two to three years.
01:29:27.800It was a pro-life group that was meeting in like their annual banquet, that kind of thing.
01:29:34.000And they help women who have unplanned pregnancies deal with them and find a way for child care and all that, all this stuff.
01:29:42.000Well, apparently this is upsetting to the pro-choice advocates who targeted them, who who got into the event stealthily and in the middle of this event at which they are trying to discuss and promote how do we take care of women with unplanned pregnancies who choose to have their babies, which any sane person should be able to find a way to support.
01:30:05.180This is what the pro-choice advocates did.
01:30:36.320It's not even like I can see if you show up at like an anti-choice event or like a pro-life march where you're really trying to change rights for women in different fight.
01:30:58.360Well, I think activists, if you can call them that, feel threatened.
01:31:03.640And I find it ironic that these people are called pro-choice because really it's just the choice that I agree with.
01:31:12.680And if you don't agree with that choice, which is to, you know, abort your child, then you're demonized and painted as some kind of monster.
01:31:21.340The top and bottom of it is these people aren't necessarily trying to change anyone's life choices, but they're just trying to let women know that it's OK.
01:31:32.700You know, you may not be ready for a baby.
01:31:34.540You may not feel as though you're in a space to be able to have a baby, but I'm here to tell you that you don't have to kill your child.
01:31:51.020And having support for that child is a good thing.
01:31:53.380And I think these sorts of people generally just feel threatened and maybe a bit guilty about their own life choices.
01:32:00.940And that's why they project them and their anger and their fear onto other people.
01:32:05.260That's all that's all that I get from that.
01:32:08.240It was called the Capitol Hill Pregnancy Center and it was their annual banquet.
01:32:12.900But so the the pregnancy center in the same way we've seen now these pro-life family centers that help women get targeted, get firebombed over the past year.
01:32:24.360Our attorney general doesn't want anything to do with it.
01:32:27.040He's not going after most of these people.
01:32:29.340It's just really distressing to me to see.
01:32:31.800I understand if you want to go march against the pro-life march, you want to have your own big pro-choice march, which they do.
01:32:40.540I get all that, but there is no reason to demonize or disrupt the people who are trying to help women who do find themselves pregnant and choose to have the baby.
01:32:55.620We are going to have a runoff in the Herschel Walker, Raphael Warnock case.
01:33:00.160And I predicted going into this that if Senate control hung in the balance, which it doesn't.
01:33:05.900But if it did, that we would see a line so long, it would look like the New York City Rockettes of women coming forward to say Herschel Walker, Herschel Walker.
01:33:17.580They they are dying to take Herschel Walker down.
01:33:19.640And his seat does matter, even though the Democrats already are going to control the Senate.
01:33:25.280Sure enough, as if on cue, the Daily Beast released releases a new article, five new women coming forward with bad claims about Herschel Walker.
01:33:43.960What nobody is talking about is the fact that yesterday Fox News broke a story about his opponent, Raphael Warnock, and his support of celebration of embrace of back in 1995 when he was a young pastor at his church.
01:33:59.360Louis Farrakhan, Louis Farrakhan, who is speaking of anti-Semites, a rabid anti-Semite who can't stand Jewish people.
01:34:16.880And do you think any any voters down in Georgia?
01:34:20.180You guys know what politics looks like, especially when the stakes are this high.
01:34:25.500Do you think anybody other than Fox News is going to report this, Ava?
01:34:30.560I'm sorry, I have to say that I don't know exactly who this person is, but what I can tell from what you're telling me is that there's bias always.
01:34:37.760You know, when it comes to sexual violence or what what even constitutes, I guess, a sexual transgression, depending on who the perpetrator is and what political field they're in.
01:34:48.000So, I mean, you know, that's that's something that I think is almost universal in the Western world.
01:34:52.800If it's someone on the right that is is accused of having done something transgressive, then it will be it will be in the media every day.
01:35:00.980If it is someone on the left, then they're going to be silent.
01:35:03.320Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's 100 percent what's going to happen.
01:35:07.440And I mean, listen, I guess it was 1995, but his comments were really well known.
01:35:12.220They'd already actually I think they'd been made within the past year.
01:35:14.560Dominique Farrakhan's comments about Jewish people and Warnock embraced him and had the church and celebrated him in a way that this would be all over the media.
01:35:24.060If Warnock had an R after his name instead of a D.
01:35:28.740Oh, completely. I think when it comes to those on the left and those that dabble in that sort of, you know, black supremacist identitarianism,
01:35:40.060I think for the mainstream media and for the left, those are the sorts of views that are acceptable.
01:35:46.300They're palatable because they're wrapped up in this idea of perpetual black victimhood.
01:35:51.940But when it comes to someone like Herschel Walker, you know, those allegations, those claims may indeed be true.
01:35:58.780But I think what you're trying to get out here is fairness and proportionality.
01:36:03.000Why is it that one person can support someone that may or may not be reprehensible, but the other side gets a free pass?
01:36:12.260And it's all about character assassination for them, especially when it comes to any sort of Republican.
01:36:21.480But this story just keeps on being told again and again in our country, in my country and yours, unfortunately.
01:36:28.000Now, speaking of politicians who have sketchy histories, Justin Trudeau, I think, Ava, you were tweeting about this.
01:36:35.300Justin Trudeau is now doing some revisionist history, trying to claim he never attacked people who don't want to get the covid vaccine by calling them names.
01:36:44.740So we you did a little truth bomb on him saying, you know, we've got the receipts.
01:36:56.000A number of people have testified in this inquiry, referencing your widely published comments and calling the unvaccinated racists and misogynists.
01:37:07.280And we have heard testimony in this inquiry about how some of your officials wanted to label protesters as terrorists.
01:37:14.800Would you agree with me that one of the most important roles of a prime minister is to unite Canadians and not divide them by engaging in name calling?
01:37:22.080I did not call people who are unvaccinated names, but there are also some people who are strongly opposed to vaccinations that are extremists who don't believe in science, who are often misogynistic and often racist, too.
01:37:44.700I mean, I'm just I was so baffled by the fact that this man has the audacity to just sit there knowing full well that there's literal footage of him saying these things.
01:37:57.600And then still under oath, say, no, no, no, I didn't.
01:38:01.760I didn't say those things about the unvaccinated.
01:38:09.600But it's it's it's a horrible thing that these people feel like they're so infallible that they can just lie on their oath, you know, even though we all have seen the footage, we all know we all have the receipts.
01:38:20.780So it shows you something about their mindset.
01:38:23.060It shows you that they think that they're infallible because they are never truly held accountable for the things that they do, because Trudeau did much worse than just called not that they don't name.
