00:00:00.000 Hey guys, Wyatt Claypool here.
00:00:02.940 So it looks like Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is set to play his most desperate card in his hand,
00:00:09.140 and that is proroguing Parliament.
00:00:11.680 Despite Trudeau being off skiing the slopes of British Columbia and getting yelled at by random women, 0.63
00:00:17.900 there is still activity going on around Parliament despite being on winter break.
00:00:23.420 The Conservatives don't want to wait to try and dissolve the government,
00:00:26.440 they want an election as fast as possible, so they've found a loophole that allows them to preemptively file their no-confidence motion
00:00:34.280 through a committee so that it can be voted on in late January rather than maybe midway through February
00:00:40.200 or maybe into March where Jagmeet Singh would rather have the no-confidence vote be had
00:00:45.620 because obviously the NDP is so bankrupt, they also want more time like the Liberals do to prepare for the next election.
00:00:51.840 The Conservatives, smartly by the way, don't want to give them this extra time,
00:00:56.440 they're awful, why should we let them have more time in government so they can fundraise? 0.90
00:01:01.020 And so what they want to do is file the no-confidence motion through the Public Accounts Committee
00:01:06.120 so that it will basically come up right away in the House of Commons to be voted on,
00:01:11.220 and the only way for Trudeau to avoid this inevitable dissolution of his government for a little bit longer 0.67
00:01:17.820 is simply by basically suspending all activity of Parliament, the most pathetic thing he could possibly do, 0.79
00:01:25.140 which I believe is just going to make him more unpopular.
00:01:27.920 I don't see any benefits for Trudeau in putting off this next election until later.
00:01:33.080 I know he's just shuffled his government for like the 17th time,
00:01:37.580 but what is he actually going to be able to get done with these new people in the next three months
00:01:42.620 that's going to make him look good in the next election?
00:01:45.580 Plus, we've seen that Trudeau doesn't know what to do,
00:01:48.460 and whatever new policies he would try and pass or new programs he would try and create
00:01:52.220 with this new cabinet would probably just further make people hate his guts
00:01:56.440 because people don't like massive government spending anymore in Canada.
00:02:00.380 One thing that we can actually credit Trudeau with,
00:02:02.740 he's been so bad as Prime Minister that Canadians are more conservative than ever
00:02:06.880 and want government to be smaller.
00:02:09.260 But here is federal conservative leader, Pure Polyev, 0.73
00:02:12.520 calling out Justin Trudeau's hypocrisy,
00:02:14.960 a man who has in the past gone on Harper's case for proroguing Parliament.
00:02:20.800 Pure Polyev here says,
00:02:22.460 liberals rumored to be planning to shut down prorogue Parliament
00:02:25.540 and paralyze the government in the middle of a housing, crime, trade, and cost of living crisis,
00:02:30.180 all to save themselves from a carbon tax election.
00:02:33.240 Here is Trudeau denouncing prorogation.
00:02:35.600 And then I want to get to another reaction to Polyev's reaction that I find just endlessly obnoxious.
00:02:42.440 But here is Justin Trudeau, I believe circa 2010-2011.
00:02:47.680 Oh, yeah, there is. 2010.
00:02:49.060 Two prorogations in two years.
00:02:52.180 The first, to avoid a vote of non-confidence that would have surely brought this government down.
00:03:00.420 The second, to avoid difficult questions.
00:03:05.680 Anyone who disagrees with this government gets pushed aside.
00:03:10.980 The challenge becomes that he gets to use every tribune he can use.
00:03:18.020 All the media, all the voices, all the attention, and gets to further marginalize people who disagree with him.
00:03:27.360 That's why we're talking about prorogation today.
00:03:30.900 You know, I couldn't say it any better than Justin Trudeau, and that's a weird thing for me to be saying.
00:03:38.760 And 100%, Justin Trudeau is just trying to prorog the government to just avoid the inevitable at this point.
00:03:46.160 He doesn't want to actually have to face his critics.
00:03:48.440 He doesn't want to have to make a case for why the government should not be dissolved.
00:03:52.720 Because there is no case, and he knows that his allies in the NDP now have to vote for the no-confidence motion
00:03:58.200 if they want to retain any of the credibility that Jagmeet Singh has tried to take on as a loan.
00:04:03.940 Because Jagmeet Singh does not have credibility.
00:04:06.300 He has to take on credibility through basically, like, he has to have it lent to him.
00:04:11.040 So we have lent him a little bit of credibility on the idea that he might vote no-confidence.
00:04:16.260 And if he doesn't, he's going to be at a massive deficit when it comes to any credibility he has remaining.
00:04:24.040 Anyways, there is this one reaction that I find really obnoxious.
00:04:27.980 So before I talk about other things to do with the liberals, I think this is the silliest thing I've read today.
00:04:34.760 So here's Andrew Leach, I believe a professor at the University of Alberta.
00:04:38.640 And he says, coincidentally, there was a pure Polyev who was parliamentary secretary to a prime minister
00:04:44.680 who prorogued parliament for almost eight weeks to avoid a confidence vote in late 2008.
00:04:49.340 In the midst of the global financial crisis, do you know him?
00:04:53.180 Okay, I hate this kind of know-it-all type politico on social media
00:04:59.660 who thinks that because they can find vague similarities to something someone else did in the past, 0.91
00:05:04.980 that spells hypocrisy.
00:05:06.920 Here, Polyev, I guarantee you can defend why Harper ended up proroguing parliament in 2008.
00:05:13.520 You had a coalition between the bloc, the liberals, and the NDP trying to end his government.
00:05:19.520 And basically, Harper just hit the reset button because he didn't have much time in that new government at all.
00:05:25.760 There was only an election a few years before, or a couple of years, less than, I think, two years.
00:05:30.120 And so, basically, he prorogued it to sort of fend off people who were just trying to opportunistically hold an election.
00:05:38.920 And that was proven by the next election in 2011, where the Conservatives have won a majority government.
00:05:44.620 And so, that was pure opportunism.
00:05:47.440 Canadians, by polling data, did not want to go to the polls in 2008,
00:05:51.800 And so, we're perfectly happy with government being prorogued.
00:05:55.480 Right now, 89% of Canadians want an election, and the only one who doesn't want an election at this point
00:06:02.040 is Justin Trudeau and some of his cabinet ministers.
00:06:05.620 That's it.
00:06:06.620 These are two similar actions that may be taken, but they are not similar situations. 1.00
00:06:13.160 I hate this stupid, cherry-picking way of analyzing politics. 0.94
00:06:18.060 Well, Justin Trudeau might prorogue Parliament, but don't you know that Pierre Polyev, back in the day, also helped prorogue Parliament. 0.99
00:06:24.900 Okay, were they the same situation?
00:06:27.440 Was Harper sitting at 20% approval?
00:06:30.420 I don't think so.
00:06:31.620 I think it might have been a different context, by the way.
00:06:35.340 Nobody's saying that prorogation is a bad thing inherently.
00:06:38.660 It is a tool that can be used effectively or badly.
00:06:43.360 I don't think it can be used well.
00:06:44.660 It can basically just be used to basically hold off a political crisis from happening that doesn't need to happen.
00:06:51.160 Or it can be used to hold off the inevitable that should happen,
00:06:55.300 which is an election when nobody has confidence in your government anymore,
00:06:58.800 which is the point of a no-confidence vote.
00:07:01.240 But I want to just talk a little bit about what the Liberals have been doing recently.
00:07:06.520 I guess to buoy their support, it's been bad.
00:07:09.700 But there's too many consultants in way too many parties,
00:07:13.940 and I think the Liberal Party of Canada is the poster child for way too much focus grouping and consultants.
00:07:20.700 Look at this stuff that they've been posting, trying to get Canadians back on their side.
00:07:24.640 This was posted on Boxing Day.
00:07:26.640 The Liberal account says,
00:07:27.640 Doing any Boxing Day shopping today?
00:07:30.500 Thanks to our holiday GST-HST tax break,
00:07:33.540 you'll pay less for video games and consoles, toys and puzzles, books and more.
00:07:37.780 Peer Poly voted against our plan, but we're making life more affordable this holiday season.
00:07:43.200 Jan, who cares?
00:07:46.420 Have something interesting to say if you're the Liberal comms team.
00:07:49.920 I almost feel bad for Justin Trudeau because his comms team is horrible.
00:07:56.000 Even he doesn't deserve a comms team this bad.
00:07:59.140 Obviously, this is a joke.
00:08:00.500 I don't think Justin Trudeau deserves to be in Parliament at all.
00:08:03.500 But my goodness, these people could make literally, 0.90
00:08:07.580 they swing at the dumbest lines possible whenever they are in a situation where they need to be talking about anything else. 0.97
00:08:14.880 Nobody cares about the GST-HST tax holiday. 0.88
00:08:17.220 We already have polling out that shows it was not popular and was not going to make people more likely to vote Liberal.
00:08:23.120 You're in a leadership crisis right now,
00:08:25.300 and you're talking about these tiny little tax benefits that you're giving people.
00:08:29.340 Tax benefits that are about to be wiped out by the increase in the carbon tax in April, by the way,
00:08:34.480 and the fact that the HST and GST is coming back in February.
00:08:40.120 So who cares? 1.00
00:08:41.140 It's just a stupid handout. 1.00
00:08:43.540 It's stupid, like Christia Freeland said. 1.00
00:08:45.620 It's stupid gimmick politics. 1.00
00:08:48.240 Although I take her words with a grain of salt because she loves gimmick politics. 0.99
00:08:52.220 She just used that term because she was trying to jab at Trudeau for firing her because she and he were both doing a bad job,
00:08:59.200 but they both want to pretend like each other are the problem.
00:09:02.420 Anyways, they're both the problem, for the record.
00:09:04.960 But here is another Liberal Party post.
00:09:07.760 This was just five hours ago today.
00:09:10.160 It says,
00:09:10.980 Has any of the Liberals' housing strategies over the past nine years lowered the cost of housing?
00:09:28.920 Asking for a friend.
00:09:31.040 I'm pretty sure that housing costs have literally doubled in this country since Trudeau got in back in 2015.
00:09:38.500 The Liberals don't know what they're doing.
00:09:40.900 That's the thing.
00:09:42.060 Nobody is scared.
00:09:43.140 And I've said this so many times before.
00:09:44.720 Literally not a single Canadian is scared of the idea of cutting program spending or cutting entire programs altogether.
00:09:51.020 Because people realize, after nine years of Trudeau, that dollar signs do not actually equal better quality of life.
00:09:58.700 People's quality of life has gone down.
00:10:00.880 Objectively, by the numbers, their quality of life has gone down.
00:10:03.900 It's not just a subjective impression.
00:10:05.820 Per capita incomes have gone down.
00:10:08.880 People's ability to afford high-quality groceries have gone down. 0.98
00:10:12.960 We can pretend that things haven't gotten as bad because CPI is a very stupid indicator of people's quality of life.
00:10:20.680 Because people would be like, oh, the groceries have only gone up by like 7% to 15% or whatever the past five years.
00:10:27.300 But that's including the fact that people are buying cheaper groceries now.
00:10:31.260 So grocery prices are up at the same time people are buying worse quality food products.
00:10:37.180 It's nuts.
00:10:38.700 Anyways.
00:10:39.140 But I want to get to this commercial that the liberals have released.
00:10:42.980 Again, this just makes me think of, who is this made for?
00:10:46.560 Who thinks the liberals were doing a good job?
00:10:49.320 Because the liberals apparently think that they're just going to be able to happy talk their way through this crisis.
00:10:55.460 Guys, wasn't 2024 such a good year?
00:10:58.120 That's the message of this commercial.
00:11:00.320 As if you're going to suddenly be like, oh, yeah, I'm not in massive household debt.
00:11:05.380 Maybe the liberals are actually good because they told me so.
00:11:09.140 First steps today towards that National Pharmacare plan.
00:11:13.480 It'll cover birth control and diabetes medication for every Canadian with a health card.
00:11:17.780 Well, the federal government announcing a milestone for its national dental care program.
00:11:23.260 Now, with more than a million Canadians being using this program now.
00:11:27.860 That's a lie.
00:11:29.580 By the way, all those liberals out there saying that, oh, mainstream media is backstabbing Trudeau.
00:11:35.500 They're propagandizing for the conservatives.
00:11:38.400 Have you people seen clips like this?
00:11:40.280 The media just assumes that liberal policies are just good.
00:11:43.960 They are terrible when it comes to covering these things objectively.
00:11:47.040 But that's a lie.
00:11:48.720 A million people have not accessed the universal dental care program.
00:11:51.860 A million people have accessed dental care.
00:11:54.720 And because everyone qualifies for universal dental care, technically a million qualifying people have been able to access dental care since the universal dental care program came into effect.
00:12:03.840 Definitely some people have used it, but the statistics are way overstated by using vague language.
00:12:10.460 But that lady didn't even use vague language. 1.00
00:12:12.300 She just flat out repeated the lie that a million people have accessed, even though a lot of dentists do not take universal dental.
00:12:18.840 This month, we've been able to see one million Canadians.
00:12:24.500 We are releasing the most comprehensive and ambitious housing plan ever seen.
00:12:32.280 New mortgage.
00:12:32.960 Like I said, we're building nearly four million homes.
00:12:36.860 I'm like, OK, cool.
00:12:38.200 But did you achieve that?
00:12:39.300 Or are you saying you can achieve that?
00:12:40.780 Leslie Lewis, the conservative MP, just absolutely shredded Sean Fraser when he was still the housing minister in committee.
00:12:48.380 Pointing out for them to achieve this goal, they would have to be building a house every three and a half minutes.
00:12:54.900 And then when she confronted Sean Fraser on this, he took like the Tinkerbell line that, well, you just have to believe in us.
00:13:01.600 You don't believe in us.
00:13:02.740 So that means you're blocking us.
00:13:04.300 It's like, my goodness, are we all supposed to clap and then say, we believe in you.
00:13:09.060 We believe in you.
00:13:10.180 And the houses are going to go up faster.
00:13:11.980 It's nonsense.
00:13:13.460 Rules have kicked in today.
00:13:14.940 They're part of the 2024 federal budget.
00:13:17.240 The rules give first-time homebuyers the chance to get a 30-year insured mortgage.
00:13:22.820 The federal government has committed to feeding, committed to helping feed hundreds.
00:13:26.860 I like how they included this clip where this guy completely flubs the line.
00:13:30.180 Here's the thousands of kids.
00:13:31.840 It says it will launch a national school food program as part of the upcoming federal budget, pledging $1 billion to implement the program.
00:13:38.520 Holiday break for Canadians, courtesy of the federal government, a two-month suspension of the GST on items like beer, cake, toys, books.
00:13:47.960 I think it's great.
00:13:48.960 And it helps families with kids.
00:13:51.920 Government announcing.
00:13:53.000 It saves people like $5.
00:13:54.940 The average person will save $5 over the two months.
00:13:57.960 Because getting 5% off of your groceries, I know it's more in places with the HST, although that's also undermining government revenues in those areas.
00:14:05.480 That it's $5 in a household, assuming that there's a family of four.
00:14:11.520 Okay, we get $20 saved.
00:14:13.520 Cool.
00:14:14.860 Why don't we just cut the carbon tax?
00:14:16.600 Why don't we cut income taxes, corporate taxes, all that stuff?
00:14:19.940 Oh, well, that's playing to the billionaires.
00:14:22.880 What?
00:14:23.220 I always love how it's good if the liberals put forward a very, very, very minor piece of tax relief.
00:14:31.600 That's going to get wiped out by tax increases they're already planning.
00:14:35.140 But if the conservatives ever put forward a plan to cut taxes, well, that's bootlicking for billionaires, according to Jagmeet Singh.
00:14:42.060 Today, they're banning 324 more makes and models of firearms, adding to the list of 1,500 that they banned in 2020.
00:14:51.560 Those are all literally fake achievements.
00:14:58.260 Those are all things that they have not actually achieved.
00:15:01.900 Programs that have not been able to be in effect long enough that they can even be measured in terms of their success, especially success per dollar spent on them.
00:15:09.300 They are just promises in the future that they have no way of actually realistically achieving.
00:15:14.780 And like that last one, they have banned another 324 assault weapons.
00:15:18.620 Okay, well, one, that's not even an inherently good thing to ban law-abiding gun owners from owning certain models of weapons.
00:15:25.400 But also, like, okay, but you guys have never even confiscated in the 2,000 guns that you previously banned because that's absurd.
00:15:34.300 You're not going to go around trying to, like, wrestle Farmer Joe down to try and take away an assault-style weapon he's not supposed to own.
00:15:42.040 The liberals haven't even done anything on that.
00:15:43.700 Even if you agree with gun control, like gun control over weapons that we've been able to own for decades and they've not caused problems, even if you are in favor of that, have the liberals done anything on it that actually makes you want to vote for them?
00:15:56.660 This is why Trudeau is just so dead in the water at this point and why I truly believe that there's a chance he could lose a pre-election in his own riding.
00:16:04.580 Even if you're a diehard liberal, what have you gotten from these people?
00:16:09.060 What have they done that's actually been positive, for one thing, in terms of policy outcomes, but things that even if you like the idea of it, they've actually acted on so far?
00:16:18.460 Most of it has just been burning barrels full of money, burning money, censorship, and a lot of other stupid government policies that don't actually work, spending, like, tons of billions of dollars on bureaucrats to file paperwork about stuff that nobody's ever going to read. 0.76
00:16:33.540 It's insane. 0.59
00:16:35.340 Anyways, is there anything else that we've got to touch on today?
00:16:39.620 I always like to go through a few of these things before we move on.
00:16:42.600 Oh, here's a good one.
00:16:44.040 This is a bit more of an obscure topic, but I think it's worth touching on.
00:16:48.500 This is NDP MP, Heather McPherson from, I believe, Edmonton, Strathcona, stumping along with the Alberta Provincial NDP against coal mining in Alberta because us having a high quality of life is somehow bad to the NDP.
00:17:05.720 Once again, Daniel Smith and the UCP are risking our precious Rocky Mountains.
00:17:10.620 What, are we going to, we're going to bulldoze the Rocky Mountains for coal?
00:17:14.380 That's not how coal mining works.
00:17:15.980 It's like these people have gotten their environmentalist, like, credentials from watching the Lorax.
00:17:21.280 By allowing an Australian company to mine coal on the eastern slopes.
00:17:25.780 And, you know, just like before, they made the announcement right before a holiday, hoping that we, that Albertans, wouldn't notice.
00:17:33.860 You know, this isn't, this isn't just about protecting a beautiful landscape.
00:17:38.040 It's about, what landscape changes will be made by mining coal?
00:17:43.200 What, what mountain behind her there is going to be missing because of coal mining?
00:17:48.020 That's not how mining works.
00:17:49.500 Again, it's like she's only learned her, like, her, her entire perspective on the environment has been shaped from the Lorax and Fern Gully and whatever new documentary Al Gore has put out. 0.99
00:18:01.360 It's foolish. 0.77
00:18:02.480 Oh, they're trying to hide this from you by announcing it before the holidays. 0.99
00:18:05.740 By the way, usually politicians tend to announce happy things before the holidays.
00:18:10.320 The UCP thinks this is good news because it is good news.
00:18:13.580 I'm even the type of person who I will criticize Danielle Smith on stuff. 0.96
00:18:17.300 I think she spends too much.
00:18:18.400 I think that we need to be lowering taxes and stop putting it off.
00:18:21.680 I hope they do it this next year.
00:18:23.220 If they do, I will praise them.
00:18:24.900 They've done some good stuff when it comes to crime and drugs and other sort of smaller policies.
00:18:30.260 Adrian Lagrange has been doing a good job in health care, but there's a lot of other things they have to get on, you know, make sure they actually start moving on fast.
00:18:37.080 But nowhere in my complaints is it that, my goodness, the UCP likes resource development too much.
00:18:44.060 My criticism of the UCP on coal, in fact, is that they shut down the coal power plants and basically fulfilled the shutdown that the Alberta NDP had started back in their government between 2015 and 2019.
00:18:57.620 But nowhere am I mad at them for extracting resources.
00:19:00.960 These people are Luddites.
00:19:02.360 They actually want you to be poorer so that they can feel better about themselves.
00:19:07.960 These people will whine and cry if a single government employee is fired who is objectively not doing anything useful, but they don't care about preventing working class Albertans from getting a job mining coal.
00:19:22.720 Mining coal that we also need, if you like solar panels, you need coal for them.
00:19:26.680 But oh my goodness, Calberta can't provide that coal. 1.00
00:19:29.120 We need the coal to come from fantasy land where we don't get to feel bad for mining it. 0.99
00:19:34.300 We shouldn't feel bad for mining in the first place, but these people are ridiculous. 0.88
00:19:37.680 About defending our identity, our economy, and our...
00:19:40.400 Our identity is apparently being anti-coal.
00:19:42.580 ...our future.
00:19:43.700 You know, in Alberta, tourism generates $10 billion a year supporting over 100,000 jobs.
00:19:48.800 But open pit coal mining scars the land, it pollutes our water, and it damages...
00:19:52.720 What percentage of the land is being scarred and polluted by coal mining?
00:19:56.180 What, are we going to have all those 100,000 people lose their jobs because the coal mine's open?
00:20:00.960 The very beauty that draws visitors to Alberta and our agriculture industry?
00:20:05.040 It depends on clean water.
00:20:07.080 From these mountain watersheds, contaminating it with coal mining threatens farms, ranches, and our economy.
00:20:14.340 Coal is a dying industry.
00:20:16.260 Renewable energy is the future, creating more...
00:20:18.800 It's not a dying industry.
00:20:20.220 People keep stepping on its face.
00:20:21.980 That's why coal's dying, is because, oh wow, we shot coal in the head, and it turns out coal's not doing so well.
00:20:28.740 Yeah, it's almost like we keep passing policies to make sure that coal cannot be used on power grids.
00:20:35.020 And all we can do at this point is mine it and then export it.
00:20:37.580 I wish we could use it here.
00:20:38.800 We should be using it here.
00:20:40.240 The most environmentally friendly thing you could actually do, in fact, is use the resources that you have close at hand,
00:20:46.080 rather than importing things from overseas and having wind turbines built in China and shipped all around the world
00:20:52.780 to finally get to some random field in Alberta, and it doesn't even produce electricity efficiently.
00:20:58.600 And the only reason that the green energy industry is booming now is because the subsidy industry is booming.
00:21:04.520 The green energy industry is not a real industry.
00:21:07.120 It's fake.
00:21:08.020 Because if the government money doesn't come in, it doesn't exist.
00:21:10.640 More jobs and offering a sustainable path forward for Alberta.
00:21:14.380 Albertans, we stopped this once, and we've got to raise our voices again to protect the Alberta Rockies.
00:21:20.620 We actually never stopped it before.
00:21:22.340 We've always had coal mining going on. 0.98
00:21:24.140 We just stopped using it on power grids, but Heather McPherson's, frankly, foolish enough
00:21:28.760 that she thinks when the Alberta NDP started phasing out coal power plants that that was phasing out coal in general.
00:21:35.160 She just doesn't know what she talked about, because she didn't read on this stuff. 0.91
00:21:37.540 She's too busy hating Jewish people to read up on any of this stuff.
00:21:41.280 Let's fight for a future that works for all of us. 0.84
00:21:43.800 It's not just corporate profits.
00:21:46.300 Let's stand up today for Albertans' mountains, for Albertans' economy, and for Albertans' future.
00:21:51.920 Oh, yeah.
00:21:52.960 We've got to fight back against those corporate profits, those corporate profits giving money to evil coal miners. 0.97
00:21:59.380 She realizes that people actually work these jobs.
00:22:02.060 It's not like a mining CEO, a mining magnate, is sitting in the mine chipping away at coal by himself.
00:22:09.900 It's employing tens of thousands of people to have these mines open, and it's a good thing both for the environment as well as Canadians' household well-beings.
00:22:22.100 Because this is why I'm in favor of coal power. 0.97
00:22:25.080 If you live in a coal town, isn't it a little bit stupid that you can't have a power plant that runs on coal? 0.99
00:22:31.660 It's literally right there. 0.98
00:22:33.160 Rather than shipping solar panels, having them be manufactured in China or somewhere else,
00:22:38.900 and it needs to gather materials from all over the world to be shipped to China, to be manufactured, put together, to be shipped back to Canada, and then moved to your coal town?
00:22:48.020 Isn't that a little silly?
00:22:49.060 I feel like it's a little bit silly, but maybe I'm just weird. 0.93
00:22:53.000 These people are deeply unserious.
00:22:55.200 So if you live in Alberta, especially Edmonton, guys, if there is a federal campaign you can work on, work on the Edmonton-Strathcona campaign. 0.98
00:23:04.420 Heather McPherson is a disgusting, hateful bigot who also hates our economy. 1.00
00:23:09.640 So if you have any volunteer hours, go and put them over there. 0.98
00:23:12.660 She's probably the most anti-Israel NDP MP in all of Parliament, which is something to say.
00:23:18.400 She's just blatantly pro-Hamas and likes to ignore crimes against women in Israel as well as against people in Palestine from Hamas. 0.91
00:23:27.660 Horrible person. 0.98
00:23:28.940 She needs to be out of there. 0.87
00:23:30.340 But this is probably a good place to end off.
