The Podcast of the Lotus Eaters - Breakfast With Beau ｜ Monday 2nd February 2026

00:00:00.000 Morning. You alright? How are you on this fine Monday morning? Oh, it's Monday. I hope

00:00:15.560 you're fighting fit, bright-eyed and bushy-tailed. I'm joined by Harry, little Harry, my producer.

00:00:20.000 How are you this morning, sir? Morning. I'm good. Good, good. It is Monday the 2nd of

00:00:25.520 February in the year of our law, 2026. It's just turned 8am. Greenwich Mean Time and you

00:00:31.060 are the glorious few chosen band. You're watching The Beau Show. Breakfast with Beau, formerly

00:00:40.820 Breakfast with Beau, colloquially known as The Beau Show or Beau's Breakfast Club, the BBC.

00:00:47.040 So let's get straight into it, shall we? What is the world talking about? What is the world,

00:00:50.580 the world, the world, the world talking about this morning? The corporate, legacy, mainstream

00:00:55.140 media? What have they, what have the cabal of editors decided, self-appointed arbiters

00:00:59.660 of truth? What have they decided you need to find important or not this morning? Shall we

00:01:04.140 just jump straight into it? Oh, right. So, oh, it's Walter Wall Epstein this morning. Walter

00:01:09.480 Wall Epstein. I mean, as I said before, some days are, it's going to be dominated by one story.

00:01:15.940 That seems to be the case maybe half the time. Do you think? Something like half the time.

00:01:19.860 Today is particularly one of the most dominated by one story ever so far on The Beau Show. This

00:01:28.080 is the fifth week. And it's Epstein. Because on Friday, the Justice Department, Friday afternoon,

00:01:34.880 cynically, did a massive dump of documents. Three, three and a half million documents, mostly

00:01:43.980 in PDF form, all connected to the Epstein saga. Now, apparently they had loads more, more like

00:01:55.600 six million. The reason why they didn't just release all of them is they're saying that

00:01:59.600 those ones, the ones they haven't released, are not relevant to anything. Let us be the

00:02:03.680 judge of that. Don't trust you, DOJ. Can't trust you. So, anyway. Still, three and a half

00:02:10.380 million documents. Sort of a very deliberate thing done on Friday afternoon. It's good

00:02:16.300 that the news cycle has kept it going till today. Because quite often that's a classic

00:02:21.260 thing. Try and dump something on Friday afternoon so that it gets in the weekend papers. But

00:02:26.900 your average normie who watches shows like this or gets a paper on Monday morning and is

00:02:32.080 pretty much out of the loop all weekend, hopefully it will be buried and they won't see it. The

00:02:36.720 last ditch sort of tactic, isn't it? And also a tactic, very deliberate tactic that defence

00:02:42.820 lawyers and prosecution lawyers do is try and swamp the playing field, as it were, with so much

00:02:51.380 information, so many documents that you drown in it. Again, very, very deliberate. But there you go.

00:02:58.740 We have been moaning that they've been doing it in drips and drabs. So, finally, they've done it.

00:03:03.240 And there was loads in there, even though it was heavily redacted. Some people complaining

00:03:08.220 about how redacted it was. Most people saying it's way too redacted. Like, blanking things

00:03:15.020 out. And others saying, oh no, you've left the names of victims in there. You didn't redact

00:03:19.900 enough. The idea is that they're supposed to, by law, redact stuff that relates to victims,

00:03:27.200 like their names, if they're not already out there anyway. If it's part of an ongoing trial,

00:03:32.200 or if it's part of national security, like it actually jeopardises the US's national

00:03:38.500 security, then they can redact it. But immediately you see that they're redacting stuff that doesn't

00:03:44.480 fall into those categories. So, yeah, some saying way too much is redacted. I would say

00:03:50.980 that. And others saying, oh, bits and bobs, particularly about victims. And that's fair

00:03:54.560 enough, isn't it? You didn't redact enough. And then there was all sorts of furore around

00:03:59.580 the DOJ pulling documents down after they'd put them up, and then putting them up again.

00:04:06.620 And then some people's names are redacted in one document, but then the same person, not

00:04:10.740 in another. Anyway, should we get into it? So, Epstein.

00:04:15.280 The newspapers, starting with the British newspapers, they say,

00:04:20.320 Mandelson under fire and bring justice for Epstein victims. So, the British papers,

00:04:26.380 sort of imagine, focus mostly on Peter Mandelson and Prince Andrew, the artist formerly known

00:04:37.260 as Prince Andrew. It's now Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, isn't it? It's not Prince anymore. It's not HRH

00:04:43.380 anymore. So, yeah, I mean, you can kind of expect that the mainstream media, they're sensationalists,

00:04:52.360 aren't they? They want to sell papers and get clicks. So, they focus more on the biggest names

00:04:57.540 in it. So, Trump, Elon, Bill Gates, Prince Andrew. But there's loads more in these documents,

00:05:06.780 loads more. Loads more than just that. In fact, that's a point I'm going to make in a moment.

00:05:11.800 I think it's sort of all a bit window dressing for the more salient point, the most important

00:05:18.580 thing about who really Epstein was and what he was doing, for whom, to what end. Anyway,

00:05:26.000 let's get into some headlines first before we get into that. All right, The Guardian.

00:05:28.260 The Guardian. Right, they go with, Mandelson under fire as files appear to show Epstein sent

00:05:42.740 him $75,000. And this was while he was in government, in the Brown government as business

00:05:49.960 secretary. Really not meant to do that, not allowed that, even from anyone, let alone someone

00:05:56.860 as disgraced as Epstein. Yeah, really bad. I mean, I saw some reporting, some documents

00:06:04.700 where it was emails, alleged emails. We'll have to say, like, it's been reported that and

00:06:11.000 alleged that quite a lot, I'm afraid. I don't want to get sued. Or it's alleged in the emails.

00:06:20.800 Right, for example, what I'm talking about there, for example, there's a guy called Robin

00:06:25.180 Leach. Most Brits, most people other than people in the US don't really know much about

00:06:30.520 Robin Leach, but in the US he was a big TV personality for years. Right, if you're American 0.91

00:06:36.300 and you're old enough, you will certainly know of and have heard Robin Leach. Right, he's

00:06:41.300 even referenced in a Biggie song. It's part of popular culture. A very, very famous person.

00:06:45.200 Dead now, he died of natural causes in, like, 2018 or something. There's one email, or there's

00:06:51.040 documents in the Epstein dump, which they, at some party, some crazy sex party, he strangled 0.85

00:06:58.400 a girl to death. But Robin Leach himself was never brought up on any criminal charges for

00:07:05.020 that. And so you have to say it's alleged. You sort of have to, because his family or his

00:07:10.640 estate might sue you for defamation or something if you don't say that. So it is alleged, it

00:07:15.760 is in there. It is, so I've got to be a little bit careful. I can't just say something that's

00:07:22.540 said in these documents is definitely true. We can't say that at this point. There's not

00:07:28.720 been sort of a criminal investigation and then a full trial and a court has made a decision.

00:07:33.240 So, there you go. Once or twice, I've been accused of being, like, slippery or being

00:07:40.140 a snake for saying, for using language like that. It's alleged. Well, you've got to, though.

00:07:43.320 It's just being prudent. All right, anyway, moving on. Yeah, so I saw some documents that

00:07:48.220 was alleged that Epstein was sending Mandelson's husband. Mandelson's got a husband called Ronaldo,

00:07:53.960 I think. And Epstein was sending him loads of money all the time. The thing I saw was

00:08:01.920 that Epstein's accountant sent an email to Epstein saying, do you remember you told me to send

00:08:09.960 Ronaldo, Mandy's husband, two grand? Just confirm for me, is that on top of the 13 grand we already

00:08:18.780 sent him? And do you want those payments to start from April or May? Then Epstein replies

00:08:25.960 back going, no, just send him four grand. Now it's being reported. I saw that on, like,

00:08:31.920 Saturday somewhere on some somewhere or other. And now they're saying there was at least

00:08:36.900 three payments of $25,000 a piece, something like that, totalling $75,000. Not sure if that's

00:08:45.400 to Mandelson himself or to Ronaldo. But either way, it seems, doesn't it, that Epstein was giving

00:08:53.040 Mandy loads of money. For what? All right, that's the question. For what? Why? How does that

00:08:58.980 make any sense? Well, there you go. And news that broke on Sunday, was it Sunday? I think

00:09:12.360 Sunday night. Yeah, it was on Sunday night and it's too late for many of the papers to report

00:09:17.260 it. Or I think one does. That Mandy himself has even renounced his Labour Party membership. He's

00:09:23.200 already disgraced, right? He's already thrown out of his office. He's still a member of the party.

00:09:29.620 Well, he's now renounced even that because he's staring down the barrel of the full Prince Andrew

00:09:35.420 treatment, full-blown pariah treatment. Good, good. I've always despised Mandy. Long before I knew he

00:09:40.940 had anything to do with Epstein. Hated Mandy. He's a gross individual. He's like the Labour

00:09:46.760 version of Michael Gove or something. You know. Horrid, horrid individual. All right.

00:09:55.980 Starmer backs talks over pact with EU on defence. Great. Financial Times. Currency goals. Xi seeks

00:10:02.160 global reserve status. That'll put the cat amongst the pigeons if that ever happened.

00:10:06.160 For those who might not know, there's the global reserve of currencies, usually. The

00:10:15.640 dollar. I won't get too into it. This isn't an economic show. But most countries will keep

00:10:22.340 a whole massive reserve of dollars, right? And so it's known as sort of the global reserve

00:10:29.160 currency is the US dollar. It used to be the pound before World War II. And then after World

00:10:35.180 War II, like Breton Woods, they realised, oh right, yeah, the British Empire and the

00:10:40.820 pound isn't all that. And it's the dollar and the United States that are going to be

00:10:44.740 the future. You know, say you're Indonesia and you want to do business to the tune of millions

00:10:52.700 and millions or billions with Cambodia. You'll probably do that in dollars. It just makes sense 0.98

00:10:59.500 a lot of money. You'll probably do it in dollars, right? Or even bigger countries, right? India wants 0.85

00:11:03.240 to do billions worth of trade with Singapore or something. Probably do it in dollars. So you see,

00:11:11.520 everyone knows what the dollar's worth and it's unlikely to collapse any day soon, right? So loads of

00:11:19.780 stuff is done in dollars. The reserve currency. Where China wants to make it the yuan where possible.

00:11:24.660 That really would be damaging America's status as hegemon of the world, wouldn't it? It would

00:11:33.700 be. I don't think that's going to happen anytime soon. It might happen in the future. Who knows

00:11:38.080 what the future holds? I don't think that will happen anytime soon. But it could happen. It's

00:11:41.980 not completely insane to think that could happen at some point. Okay. J.P. Morgan could

00:11:48.600 quote, threaten UK over bankers tax, Mandelson told Epstein. Hmm. This is a story back when

00:11:57.440 Epstein was, sorry, back when Mandy was in government, the business secretary. They were,

00:12:02.180 the British government was looking to bring in laws, sort of restricting bonuses and things

00:12:07.660 for tax, for big banks, putting more rates on big banks and stuff like that. And he's talking

00:12:13.140 to Epstein saying, get your J.P. Morgan mates to put pressure on our government. I mean,

00:12:20.460 Mandy, Mandy, Mandy. Emails reveal tires to sex offending. Yeah, we already know they're

00:12:27.200 best friends. Weirdly, best friends. Like properly thousands of emails between each other, sending

00:12:34.960 cards to each other, congratulating each other on birthdays and stuff all the time. Ex-power

00:12:39.680 broker defends comments. Labour Party urge to act. Well, he's already renounced his membership,

00:12:45.900 so there's not much more they can do, I don't think at this point. Maybe scratch his name

00:12:49.780 out from, from, anyway. A scientist's fear surge of poorly written, quote, slop. Puts AI sector's

00:13:00.460 credibility at risk. Even the Financial Times is talking about slop now. Okay, back to Epstein.

00:13:05.860 It's the main thing. There's a picture of Mandy in his pants. Lovely. Don't actually

00:13:12.460 want to see that, really. Mandelson faces order for Epstein evidence. Yeah, the actual

00:13:17.960 oversight committee, Congress. Congress wants to speak to Mandy. I want him to come and give

00:13:24.580 evidence testimony about what he knows or doesn't know. In fact, let's get rid of that image,

00:13:29.820 because I don't really want to see Peter Mandelson in pants. I've at least wore boxer shorts. It's

00:13:36.420 actual pants. Who wears pants? Let's do a poll. Do you wear pants or boxer shorts? No, let's

00:13:46.280 don't do that. I'm a boxer shorts man myself. Pants. We did do a poll, incidentally, just to let

00:13:53.760 you know, about Epstein. So if you're in the chat, get on that. Get involved. So yeah,

00:14:00.120 the story is that this bit is that Congress saying they want to speak to Epstein. Now,

00:14:05.700 they can't compel him by law to go there, because he's a Brit. But you know, it looks dodgy if

00:14:13.860 you refuse to go. There was one time George Galloway was asked to go and give evidence about

00:14:21.600 his connection to oil, maybe getting money from Saddam Hussein, the oil for the oil for food

00:14:28.860 program. And I hate George Galloway. I hate him. I hate him. But that was brilliant. He went

00:14:35.560 there. He did turn up. And he stomped them anew. Yeah, he absolutely annihilated them.

00:14:46.580 And that was great. That's one of the all-time great clips of when the Senate, I think it was

00:14:51.380 a Senate one. It must have been. And the Senate were trying to put pressure on him saying,

00:14:55.600 did you do this? Have you had that? And he was just completely unapologetic. He didn't,

00:15:01.760 you know, I'm pretty sure he didn't have anything to do with that. I'm pretty sure he didn't take

00:15:06.020 money from Saddam Hussein. But anyway, they want to speak to, they want to speak to old Mandy

00:15:13.520 on the hill about what he knows. The Metro.

00:15:17.140 Explosive files reveal more secrets. Embarrassment of riches for old pals of Epstein. Yeah, 1.00

00:15:34.480 there's loads. There's loads in there. Billionaire sent Mandelson $75,000. Grateful Fergie told

00:15:41.340 him marry me. Shamed Andrew is urged to testify. So yeah, the Yorks, as were, Andrew and Fergie.

00:15:53.500 Fergie was really close friends with, it seems, with Epstein as well. She emailed back and forth

00:15:58.540 with him loads. And there's one email, and I'm going to paraphrase here, but she was basically 0.98

00:16:05.980 saying stuff. She said something like, you're the brother I'd never had. You're the brother I wish I

00:16:10.480 had always had, or something. Like, that's a, like, such a weird, like, close, intimate sort of thing

00:16:17.740 to say. Like, how are you that close to someone? It was weird. And she said something like, the other

00:16:24.060 day, these are emails from years ago, right, from 2010s or something or other. She said, the other day,

00:16:30.000 when you gave me a compliment in public, in front of our daughters, that was amazing. That was one of the

00:16:34.900 best moments of my life, or something like that, she said. That was one of the greatest compliments I've ever

00:16:38.440 received in my entire life. Weird, isn't it? And then when he would set her up with, like,

00:16:45.020 business connections, she wanted to get the Fergie brand going. She did a lot of it through 0.89

00:16:51.700 Epstein. She's, like, so unbelievably, grovelingly, bootlickingly grateful to him. Thank you, thank

00:16:57.880 you, Mr. Epstein. Thank you. You're so great. You're so great. Loads and loads and loads of times.

00:17:03.920 Anyway, Andrew, there's more suggestions. Well, there was one email where, for example,

00:17:10.160 Epstein goes to him, I've got this great 26-year-old Russian woman. You want to have 0.99

00:17:15.420 dinner with her? And Andrew's like, yeah, of course, sure.

00:17:22.080 And that was way after Epstein's conviction for child sex crime. In fact, that was after,

00:17:31.560 Andrew said in his, quote-unquote, car crash interview, he'd cut all tyres with Epstein.

00:17:38.520 Showing once again the things he said in that interview must be untrue. And then this picture

00:17:46.100 came out. Bring that up, Harry. This picture there, you can see it. There's Andrew there.

00:17:50.980 Andrew, Mountbatten, Windsor.

00:17:52.040 The king's brother, the queen's son, kneeling over a woman. Now, there is someone in the

00:18:01.080 background there with their feet up on the table, and it looks like quite a relaxed sort

00:18:04.440 of thing. I don't think this is evidence, like, it's in the midst of a sex crime or anything,

00:18:09.180 or that that's a dead body or anything. I don't think that. It looks like some silly little

00:18:12.380 parlour game, or God knows what it was. But it's just weird, isn't it? It's just odd. 0.70

00:18:16.860 Like, well, it's still weird.

00:18:23.520 All right, there's loads about Trump in it. Like, Trump's mentioned, like, over 3,000 times.

00:18:29.080 There's some allegations in there, full-blown, full, like, full sexual assaults by Trump.

00:18:37.600 I've got to say they're allegations, because they're unproven. Of course, Trump says it's

00:18:42.500 all untrue. There's one particular account where some 14-year-old is supposed to have

00:18:48.140 done acts on the president and accidentally bitten him, or bitten him in some way, and

00:18:54.840 then when she laughed or joked about it, it got punched in the head.

00:19:00.480 Parties where Trump's sort of auctioning off girls. Like, this is way back in the 90s,

00:19:04.740 I think. Trump throws a big party at Mar-a-Lago. Epstein brings loads of girls, little girls,

00:19:12.920 children, or young women, at least. And Trump's, like, auctioning them off to people. I mean,

00:19:20.840 not quite literally, like slaves or anything, but still, auctioning them off. What does that

00:19:25.420 really mean? I mean, it's all a bit, it's alleged. Then you go, Bill Gates, Bill Gates was mentioned

00:19:36.040 loads in it. Really embarrassing for Bill Gates, if the allegations are true. There's this one email

00:19:43.580 where, uh, he's saying, uh, well, okay, Epstein sent himself a draft email, which is weird and

00:19:53.860 suspicious, because it's sort of like, it suggests, doesn't it, that it's to do with blackmail. It's like,

00:19:58.380 I've written out everything, like a slam dunk case against you, Bill Gates, and, uh, if you don't keep

00:20:06.220 playing ball, if you don't do as you're told, one way or another, I'll send this email, and then that'll

00:20:10.600 be a matter of record. It'll be, like, on servers and things. If anyone, like the FBI or whoever, ever

00:20:16.320 searches into our emails, it'll be there. It's weird that he drafted this email and sent it to himself.

00:20:22.320 But anyway, in that, he says that he's having a go at Bill Gates for trying to terminate their

00:20:29.300 friendship, and saying all stuff like, you remember that time, Bill Gates, you were, like, almost in

00:20:33.200 tears with me, asking me to delete emails. Do you remember that? And, like, the time I set you up with

00:20:40.540 a Russian girl, and you got an STD, and then you asked me, Epstein, for, um, antibiotics to cure the 0.83

00:20:48.960 STD, so, and, and so that you, Bill Gates, can give your own wife, slip her surreptitiously, without her

00:20:56.260 knowing, antibiotics, because, because Bill Gates is probably going to give his wife the STD, and doesn't want

00:21:02.240 her to find out about that, all that, so he's going to, like, slip her a Mickey Finn, he's going to, like,

00:21:06.800 without her knowledge, give her antibiotics. Bill Gates has come out and said, all that is complete

00:21:14.900 lies, complete nonsense, there's nothing to that, that's not true. So, there you go, it just goes on

00:21:20.840 and on and on and on, of course, there's tons about the Clintons, right, Bill, Bill Clinton. Epstein

00:21:27.240 went to Clinton's White House, like, 17 times. Epstein took Bill Clinton on an African tour on his

00:21:34.800 private jet, Epstein's private jet. Bill Clinton went to Little St. James, Epstein's Island, loads and

00:21:41.160 loads and loads of times, tons of times. They're, like, weirdly super close. And if you remember, just,

00:21:49.560 like, what, two weeks ago, Bill and Hillary were supposed to give evidence in a congressional,

00:21:56.680 I think it was Congressional Committee, and refused to. They were subpoenaed to go and refused to.

00:22:03.100 They just didn't turn up. And it can be done for, like, contempt or something or other, can't they?

00:22:07.780 They can be done for, that's a crime, you're not allowed to just not turn up if you're American, 0.52

00:22:12.360 you know. It just goes on and on. Bring justice for Epstein victims, Andrew and Mandelson told,

00:22:19.320 says the iPaper. Former Prince and Labour peer are urged to testify to US Congress after Epstein

00:22:26.680 revelations. PM under pressure to remove Mandelson's peerage and kick him out of the Labour Party.

00:22:32.620 Well, he's not in the Labour Party anymore, but he will still have a peerage. He still is the Lord

00:22:36.100 Mandelson. That'd be nice if he got stripped of that. That would be nice. Andrew may face legal action

00:22:41.600 over claims Epstein victim was trafficked to the UK. Yeah, there's a question of whether the police,

00:22:48.340 probably the Met Police, but just the UK police, will actually investigate Andrew over actual crimes.

00:22:54.520 Before now, they've always said, no, we're not going to do that, which is weird. They're like, no,

00:22:59.760 if there's any crimes, let Interpol do it. Let, like, the international police do it. We're not even

00:23:04.860 going to look at it properly. Really. Well, now they're being urged to look into it now.

00:23:11.940 No statement from Palace after photos show former Prince kneeling over a young woman.

00:23:17.040 Not a crime to kneel over a young woman, is it? But it is weird.

00:23:22.840 Can the Palace make a statement about that? What was that? If it was completely innocent,

00:23:26.920 just tell us what it was then. Cabinet Minister urges Mandelson and Andrew to give evidence and,

00:23:33.120 quote, bring justice. Starmer facing fresh criticisms over decision to appoint Labour

00:23:38.160 peer as US ambassador. Yeah. Because remember, when Starmer got in, like a year ago, or a bit

00:23:42.740 over a year ago now, isn't it? Like 18 months odd. He immediately picked a new ambassador to the US,

00:23:53.000 one of the highest diplomats, like the most prestigious diplomatic thing you can be in the foreign office.

00:23:57.780 And against advice, against advice, he picked Peter Mandelson.

00:24:06.440 Peter Mandelson was in the Oval Office only like, what, six months ago? Nine months ago?

00:24:12.440 When Trump got in and signed a load of things, he's like, Peter Mandelson's standing there next to him,

00:24:17.640 behind him. Why did Starmer? Anyway, let's get through a quick few more headlines before I give

00:24:26.720 my thoughts and feelings about the Epstein thing, in general. Second woman's sex claim. So it's not

00:24:32.380 just Virginia Griffey, it's another woman, a whole other woman. Epstein flew me to Andrew at Royal Lodge,

00:24:38.900 victim trafficked by US pedo, quote, spent night, then had tea and tour of palace. It's apparently one

00:24:44.500 woman. Epstein flew her to, I don't know if it was Buckingham Palace or it was one of the other

00:24:49.620 royal palaces, um, flew her to Andrew in Britain. They did a whatever, and then afterwards he gives

00:24:58.560 her a tour of the palace. Allegedly, the Daily Mail, Andrew knew Epstein legal threat. Okay, yeah,

00:25:10.460 yeah, yeah, all the same stuff. Uh, the Times, the Venerable Times, new Epstein victim, I was sent

00:25:15.700 for sex with Andrew, yeah. Met urged to investigate latest claims against Royal. Okay, the Daily

00:25:22.700 Express, see it's wall to wall, wall to wall Epstein. PM, oh, this is a different story, just as I say

00:25:26.960 that, it's a different story. PM wants to, quote, rewind freedom Brexit gave us. Yeah, and the little blurb

00:25:33.960 says the Prime Minister, quote, suggested voters were tricked into leaving the EU, writes the Daily

00:25:39.660 Express in its lead story. It says, Sir Keir is coming, quote, under fire for trying to rewind

00:25:44.660 Brexit. Quoting reform UK leader, Nigel Farage, who says the Prime Minister is, quote, determined,

00:25:51.180 determined to drag us back under the heels of Brussels. Yeah, I suspect Nigel's right on the

00:25:58.680 money there. Hmm. Yeah, they want to, there's a later story we might see later where he wants to

00:26:06.440 have closer ties, give more money to a European, a fund that is like for a European defence force,

00:26:12.860 European army, however you want to sort of phrase it, think about it. Um, yeah, the Labour,

00:26:18.320 the lefties have always, always, always despised the very concept of Brexit. The idea that Parliament

00:26:25.240 itself should be sovereign, despised that, and would like to rewind it if they could, of course,

00:26:31.680 to undo it at every possible level. I mean, it was never really done properly in the first place,

00:26:36.180 was it? Even Boris's deal that he got was not properly Brexit, was it? We're still tied to them

00:26:42.300 in loads and loads and loads of different ways, at least of all the ECHR. Okay. I say all lefties,

00:26:48.460 won't you? There is such things a super hard line lefty who doesn't like it, like, uh, Corbyn

00:26:52.220 actually wasn't over the moon with Remain, or just wasn't over the moon with the entire European

00:26:58.700 project, right? Somebody like, um, well, there's been, there's, there's been a number of them who

00:27:06.120 are, like, full-blown socialists, really, where they don't like the European project, but most of

00:27:11.220 them, most of, like, the centrists and lefty centrists, left of centre people have always hated it.

00:27:16.620 The sun goes with something different, that Lewis Hamilton is dating Kim Kardashian.

00:27:24.800 I wonder who's giving who venereal disease out of that one.

00:27:33.020 That made Harry chuckle.

00:27:36.920 Apparently, it's complete slop, so I'll only spend a moment on it.

00:27:41.580 Apparently, Kim Kardashian met for a hotel romp with Sir Lewis.

00:27:47.620 Important stuff.

00:27:49.440 The star, the star goes with sumo.

00:27:53.880 Sumo mania.

00:27:55.040 There's been an eight-fold increase in courses where you can learn sumo in Britain over the

00:27:59.860 last year or something.

00:28:02.280 Important stuff.

00:28:03.840 Okay, so, just before we go on to, uh, the, the poll and, uh, the, the other stories.

00:28:12.060 About the Epsi thing, the thing I find interesting.

00:28:16.620 Is that the legacy corporate mainstream media, what they concentrate on in this Epstein stuff.

00:28:24.180 So, the British media, as we've seen there, is concentrating almost exclusively on Mandelson

00:28:29.640 and Andrew.

00:28:31.480 All right.

00:28:31.860 The US media concentrate, have, are concentrating loads on more like Elon and Bill Gates.

00:28:39.580 Oh, Elon asked, apparently, allegedly, asked to go to the island.

00:28:43.580 He's emailing Epstein's people saying stuff like,

00:28:46.600 whatever your most, like, wicked, badass party at Little St. James, whenever that is.

00:28:52.860 I'm going to be in the British Virgin Islands at this time, whenever it was, years back.

00:28:57.060 Let me know when your most crazy party's going down.

00:29:00.020 I'll be there.

00:29:00.580 Apparently, it never happened.

00:29:03.860 He never went.

00:29:04.500 Like, Epstein's people just say it, like, were, like, a bit lukewarm about it.

00:29:07.320 And anyway, apparently, it didn't happen.

00:29:08.360 But anyway, there's an email that allegedly shows that Elon himself was asking to go.

00:29:14.860 Which is, um, again, Elon, I think, just denies it all.

00:29:18.040 Because he's always said, um, that Epstein was asking him to get involved in stuff.

00:29:24.920 And, and Elon was always like, no, I'm not interested in that.

00:29:28.000 Well, these emails allegedly show that it was the other way around.

00:29:30.920 But, whatever.

00:29:32.380 I think it's fair to say that, one way or another, Elon was involved very, very tangentially or minimally with it.

00:29:38.880 But, still, there you go.

00:29:39.860 I mean, when you move in these circles.

00:29:43.620 Anyway.

00:29:43.860 The, the, the corporate mainstream media concentrate on the scandal of it.

00:29:50.660 They concentrate on, like, the big names and what they may or may not have done.

00:29:54.120 And there's not really much reporting, hardly any reporting, on sort of the most salient thing about it all.

00:30:01.500 Which is, what really was Epstein doing?

00:30:05.380 What really was going on?

00:30:07.140 Really.

00:30:08.680 Right?

00:30:09.900 Because he, it seems, doesn't it, 0.99

00:30:12.920 that it's more than just, he's just a really rich guy who's a pervert. 0.94

00:30:18.400 And likes to share his, his perversions with other really rich and powerful people. 0.95

00:30:23.200 It's more than that.

00:30:24.140 I've seen one or two takes on Twitter, people still saying that.

00:30:27.500 I think that's terribly, terribly naive.

00:30:29.520 I don't buy that.

00:30:30.120 I cannot buy that anymore.

00:30:31.320 Well, there's, there's evidence to the contrary that it's more than that. 0.87

00:30:34.440 That it's not just simply a rich dude that's into dodgy sex stuff.

00:30:40.780 It's more than that.

00:30:43.100 Whether he was part of the intelligence services.

00:30:47.540 Okay?

00:30:48.740 Whether it was, the only question for me really now is whether it was the US intelligence services and the Israeli intelligence services.

00:30:56.820 Whether it's one or the other or both.

00:30:58.380 That's the only real question remaining for me.

00:30:59.880 Right?

00:31:02.040 There's a thing called, people have said there's like the fingerprints of intelligence.

00:31:06.780 Right?

00:31:07.200 Because usually it's quite difficult to show beyond all question, beyond all doubt, whether someone was a member of the intelligence services.

00:31:14.740 Because the intelligence services will never, ever tell you one way or the other.

00:31:18.140 But yet, you can see that someone's got the fingerprints of intelligence all over them.

00:31:22.100 Right?

00:31:25.380 And that is what, I mean, you look at the Leslie Wexner connection.

00:31:30.540 Leslie Wexner, look into him, find out about him, his connections to everything.

00:31:35.820 That he just gave that giant mansion to Epstein for essentially nothing.

00:31:43.160 Super, super weird.

00:31:44.180 Sorry, one moment.

00:31:49.380 Guys, can you keep it down a bit?

00:31:51.680 Sorry.

00:31:54.540 It's the first time I've had to do that on the show.

00:31:57.360 There's some people outside the studio being too loud to put me off.

00:32:01.060 All right.

00:32:02.420 The Leslie Wexner connection.

00:32:04.280 And, okay, so Ehud Barak.

00:32:07.840 If you've ever heard of Ehud Barak.

00:32:10.200 Ehud Barak was the Prime Minister of Israel between 1999 and 2001.

00:32:14.180 He's much, much more than that, Ehud Barak.

00:32:16.040 Much, much, much more than that.

00:32:18.980 Okay, as a younger man, Ehud Barak was in the Israeli army.

00:32:23.820 He was actually a paratrooper to begin with.

00:32:25.640 Special forces.

00:32:27.180 Did some sort of special forces stuff.

00:32:29.000 Very brave as a young man.

00:32:30.340 Won't deny that.

00:32:31.580 Highly decorated.

00:32:32.700 I think I've heard him described as the most highly decorated Israeli soldier of all time.

00:32:38.200 One time he stormed an aeroplane.

00:32:39.800 There had been a hijacked aeroplane.

00:32:41.780 And he was one of the guys that actually stormed onto it.

00:32:43.900 Okay.

00:32:46.180 Like in another war, they had a dearth of tank commanders.

00:32:50.520 So he became a tank commander in a war.

00:32:55.140 After that, he became the head of all Israeli special forces.

00:32:58.360 Then he became the head of all Israeli intelligence.

00:33:05.980 Then he was the head of all Israeli military.

00:33:09.440 Like the equivalent of the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff.

00:33:12.880 Then he was the Prime Minister.

00:33:14.280 Then after that, after that, he was the defence secretary for years and years.

00:33:18.480 Still alive today.

00:33:19.140 I think he's like 83.

00:33:20.160 Still alive today.

00:33:21.120 Ehud Barak.

00:33:21.600 Unbelievably plugged in.

00:33:24.380 Unbelievably plugged in.

00:33:25.620 Ex-head of all Israeli intelligence and military.

00:33:28.820 And the Prime Minister.

00:33:29.740 Hundreds of emails.

00:33:30.960 There's hundreds of emails between him and Epstein.

00:33:34.100 Hundreds.

00:33:34.400 He visited Epstein's New York mansion many, many, many times.

00:33:40.700 He went to Little St. James, the island.

00:33:43.560 Like as late as 2014 or 2016 or something.

00:33:47.560 There's all sorts of emails between them.

00:33:50.900 Saying, oh, I'm going to come to the island.

00:33:52.140 I'm not going to bring any of my security guys.

00:33:54.700 So just us on the island.

00:33:57.480 There's one point where Jeffrey Epstein says to him,

00:34:00.620 I'm about to go and do some business with some Qatari businessman.

00:34:03.960 And obviously the Qatari businessman had some sort of suspicion or fear

00:34:07.580 that he was dealing with a Mossad agent or a Shin Bet agent or something in Epstein.

00:34:13.760 And so Epstein's asking Ehud Barak to confirm to this Qatari businessman

00:34:17.240 that he, Epstein, is in fact not in Mossad.

00:34:19.760 Ehud Barak.

00:34:27.760 Not many people have just got a close relationship

00:34:30.280 to the tune of hundreds and hundreds of emails back and forth with Ehud Barak.

00:34:34.380 One of the most plugged in people to Israeli intelligence you could possibly get.

00:34:39.360 So the idea that he's just a rich guy.

00:34:44.500 He's just a rich guy with perversions.

00:34:47.060 It's just not, that's not what's going on here.

00:34:51.460 There's much, much, much more to it.

00:34:53.280 The fingerprints of intelligence all over everything he was doing and did.

00:34:57.700 And how you could possibly get the connections.

00:35:00.880 And it's just, there's so much there.

00:35:02.900 There's a mountain, really.

00:35:04.360 A mountain of evidence, circumstantial.

00:35:07.060 One where, well, not just circumstantial.

00:35:09.180 We've got the receipts now.

00:35:10.680 Many, many receipts.

00:35:12.240 Someone like Ben Shapiro, when there was the first dump,

00:35:14.220 saying, that's it.

00:35:14.920 Nothing more to see here now.

00:35:16.300 If you've got any more evidence that it was anything other than just a rich pervert,

00:35:20.420 it's on you to prove it now.

00:35:24.020 Well, there is more evidence now, isn't there?

00:35:27.380 When Pan Bondi was asked about this not too long ago, a few months ago,

00:35:30.340 when there was that first tranche of evidence that was released.

00:35:35.480 Remember that?

00:35:36.100 A few months ago, last year.

00:35:39.280 They hoped they put, Trump hoped the whole thing would be put to bed at that point.

00:35:43.060 Remember?

00:35:43.900 They came out with a whole bunch of redacted nothing burgers.

00:35:46.580 And then the very next day, when Trump's asked about it,

00:35:48.900 it's like, you still talking about this guy?

00:35:50.340 You still talking about this guy?

00:35:51.360 Yeah, we're still talking about it.

00:35:52.280 Yeah.

00:35:53.960 Yeah.

00:35:54.520 Because you haven't really told us anything that's going on.

00:35:56.680 At that point, there was a press conference and Trump does that whole thing. 0.99

00:36:00.480 You still talking about this scumbag? 0.98

00:36:03.480 Someone asked Pan Bondi, was Epstein part of the intelligence services, 1.00

00:36:09.220 whether US or Israeli?

00:36:11.060 And she says, even then, only a few months ago,

00:36:13.940 we still don't know about that.

00:36:15.200 We're still looking into it.

00:36:16.060 We'll have to get back to you.

00:36:18.460 It's not good enough.

00:36:20.100 It's not good enough.

00:36:20.720 And we know, unless you're terribly naive, living under a rock,

00:36:25.020 sweet summer child.

00:36:27.560 Then we know the case.

00:36:28.880 It was one or the other.

00:36:29.720 That's the only question for me, whether it's both.

00:36:33.340 And that's often the way I think, like, it's not like Epstein.

00:36:35.800 I don't think Epstein was like a full-blown intelligence agent,

00:36:39.800 an intelligence officer.

00:36:41.780 Like, he was in the pay of Mossad or the CIA.

00:36:44.920 He was trained by the CIA or Mossad.

00:36:47.080 I don't think so.

00:36:48.020 Probably not that.

00:36:49.680 It's not necessarily how it works.

00:36:51.660 You just get someone who's extremely rich and powerful and well-placed.

00:36:54.480 And you just work with them.

00:36:58.600 Right?

00:36:58.780 They just come to you.

00:37:00.080 Someone super high up, like Ehud Barak, comes to you and says,

00:37:03.300 do this or that for us.

00:37:06.140 Someone super high up in the CIA just comes to you and says,

00:37:10.220 we're interested in this or that, what this or that person says or does,

00:37:12.960 or where they go, et cetera, et cetera.

00:37:14.340 And you give them information.

00:37:20.500 And all this is sort of windowed, like Mandelson.

00:37:23.660 How many thousands of pounds did Epstein give Mandelson's husband?

00:37:30.020 It's not really the most important thing about all of this, is it?

00:37:33.720 It's not the most salient thing.

00:37:35.940 Like, did Bono go to the island or not?

00:37:37.740 You know, is there a picture of Andrew kneeling over a clothed woman?

00:37:44.280 That's not the most important thing.

00:37:46.780 Did Bill, as salacious as it is, scandalous and interesting as it is,

00:37:50.240 did Bill Gates ask Epstein for antibiotics for an STD?

00:37:56.160 It's misdirection, isn't it?

00:37:57.700 It's like, look over here, look over here.

00:38:00.580 Look at the scandalous thing over here. 0.98

00:38:02.560 But don't look at the most important thing,

00:38:05.840 which is really who is Epstein.

00:38:08.540 If these people are pawns on a board,

00:38:10.540 Virginia Giffrey,

00:38:12.480 who claims that Ehud Barak sexually assaulted her personally,

00:38:15.580 by the way.

00:38:17.840 Someone like Virginia Giffrey is just a pawn on that table. 1.00

00:38:21.540 All the poor victims, all these poor girls, 1.00

00:38:23.520 these 14-year-old girls doing massages or whatever. 0.99

00:38:26.580 They're just pawns on the board.

00:38:28.560 And then you've got more important pawns,

00:38:30.000 like Bill Gates or Prince Andrew or Epstein himself.

00:38:33.580 It's like an important piece on that board.

00:38:35.800 Really important piece.

00:38:37.660 I want to know,

00:38:38.360 who's the hand moving those pieces around?

00:38:42.700 And what's going on in their mind?

00:38:44.640 Why are they making that move?

00:38:46.400 Why are they moving Epstein there

00:38:48.300 so that it will manipulate other smaller pawns,

00:38:51.300 other smaller pieces around the board?

00:38:53.520 Who's the hand that's doing that?

00:38:54.840 Almost certainly,

00:39:00.080 probably the intelligence services.

00:39:01.700 Probably.

00:39:03.560 Isn't it?

00:39:07.540 Almost certainly.

00:39:09.580 And that's the thing they don't want to talk about, isn't it?

00:39:11.920 That's the thing where all the media

00:39:13.300 is not really talking about that.

00:39:16.720 Here's a picture of Mandelson in his pants.

00:39:19.480 Focus on that.

00:39:22.220 No, I don't think I will, actually.

00:39:23.140 No, no, actually, I don't think I will.

00:39:25.080 No, I think I want to ask the most salient questions.

00:39:27.520 Who exactly was Epstein's handlers?

00:39:32.560 What exactly was he doing?

00:39:35.180 For whom?

00:39:35.980 To what end?

00:39:38.640 I think I'll stay focused on that, actually.

00:39:41.280 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

00:39:42.280 We'll stay focused on that.

00:39:44.080 Thank you.

00:39:45.340 Thank you, though.

00:39:46.840 Thank you for trying to do misdirection.

00:39:49.040 All right, so we did a poll.

00:39:54.480 We did a poll.

00:39:56.620 And we said,

00:39:57.600 Do you think Epstein was an intelligence asset?

00:40:00.320 83% of you say yes.

00:40:02.140 Once again, a crushing defeat.

00:40:07.600 A crushing victory, rather.

00:40:09.360 Crushing defeat for Epstein.

00:40:11.020 Crushing victory for Baudade on the Baud Show.

00:40:15.260 Being in more or less perfect harmony

00:40:17.080 with the glorious band, The Chosen Few.

00:40:19.520 6% of you say no.

00:40:25.540 And 11% of you say not sure.

00:40:28.100 Actually, saying not sure is actually still fair enough.

00:40:31.100 Because it's not 100% proven.

00:40:34.040 100% proven.

00:40:37.100 There you go.

00:40:37.620 Only 6% of you say no.

00:40:41.880 Really?

00:40:44.520 Really?

00:40:46.960 Fair enough?

00:40:47.500 Fair enough, though?

00:40:47.980 Fair enough, you're allowed your opinion.

00:40:52.980 Just look into the Leslie Wexner bit.

00:40:57.600 Look all into that.

00:40:59.260 Come back and tell me Epstein's not got

00:41:01.640 the fingerprints of intelligence all over him.

00:41:04.340 Just that.

00:41:06.980 Okay, let's look at the main websites.

00:41:14.320 Okay, it'll be all mainly the same thing,

00:41:16.520 so I'll whip through them real quick.

00:41:17.980 Lord Mandelson.

00:41:20.000 The Lord Mandelson.

00:41:22.300 First Baron Mandelson.

00:41:23.740 Mandelson.

00:41:24.760 There you go.

00:41:25.520 Looking really sad.

00:41:26.140 Really regrets his relationship.

00:41:28.980 Really, really regrets it.

00:41:30.640 Do you?

00:41:31.080 Why were you then?

00:41:31.820 What do you mean?

00:41:32.520 I always find that weird when someone does

00:41:34.320 loads and loads of stuff over many, many years

00:41:36.620 and then says,

00:41:37.880 I don't accept your apology.

00:41:38.580 I don't accept your apology.

00:41:44.440 I believe you.

00:41:45.720 And even if you were genuinely contrite,

00:41:47.660 I don't accept it.

00:41:50.160 Sarah Ferguson.

00:41:52.840 Fergie.

00:41:53.280 Oh, the Grammys happened. 1.00

00:41:56.300 The Grammys happened.

00:41:59.160 Really couldn't care less.

00:42:01.720 Bad Bunny.

00:42:03.060 Never heard of Bad Bunny.

00:42:04.300 Not that I've particularly got my finger on the pulse of, like, music.

00:42:08.580 Bad Bunny.

00:42:10.500 Really?

00:42:12.180 Really?

00:42:15.080 Not interested.

00:42:17.860 Alright.

00:42:18.940 Yeah, there you go.

00:42:20.080 Very sombre looking.

00:42:21.860 Lord Mandelson there.

00:42:23.600 Really regrets.

00:42:24.600 Sending thousands of emails

00:42:27.360 and being really, really, really good friends with Epstein

00:42:28.940 for years and years on end

00:42:29.820 and taking loads of money from him

00:42:31.020 and visiting him all the time.

00:42:35.420 Giving him advice

00:42:36.520 how to recover his reputation

00:42:40.500 after his sex convictions.

00:42:46.100 He's sorry about that.

00:42:48.060 Regrets it.

00:42:49.480 What?

00:42:49.920 That doesn't make sense.

00:42:51.140 It doesn't make sense. 0.56

00:42:53.240 Complete nonsense.

00:42:54.600 Alright, there we go.

00:42:55.720 The Sky News.

00:42:56.700 Mandy in his pants again. 0.61

00:42:58.620 Let's just move on, shall we?

00:43:00.900 Let's see if we've got anything different today, really, in the news.

00:43:04.380 Alright, the Daily Mail goes with

00:43:05.620 how strivers on £48,000

00:43:08.000 will be hardest hit by the Chancellor's stealth tax raid.

00:43:12.040 So just more taxes.

00:43:14.140 Tax on strivers.

00:43:16.900 People that make an okay wage.

00:43:18.940 Or save.

00:43:20.460 Why do they have to say it like that?

00:43:21.760 They've decided that's the word they're going to use.

00:43:23.460 Strivers.

00:43:24.600 Yeah, the socialists want to tax people into oblivion.

00:43:30.020 That's what they do.

00:43:30.680 That's all they've got.

00:43:31.280 That's her only play.

00:43:35.020 She's not an economist.

00:43:37.340 She is sort of a cuckoo in the nest. 0.98

00:43:39.480 Like a weirdo pick. 0.63

00:43:42.980 Rachel Reeves.

00:43:43.620 She's really not the type of person

00:43:47.020 that should be Chancellor of the Exchequer.

00:43:48.540 Not even close, right?

00:43:50.340 Not even close.

00:43:51.520 You know when you look at people like David Lammy

00:43:53.260 who used to be at the head of the Foreign Office.

00:43:55.500 Not the right person.

00:43:57.340 You're supposed to be...

00:43:58.360 You're supposed to sort of exude gravitas.

00:44:01.660 You're supposed to have a lifetime behind you

00:44:04.080 of diplomacy.

00:44:05.020 Or a lifetime behind you

00:44:06.520 of being an economist

00:44:08.140 to be the Chancellor.

00:44:10.280 These are the wrong people.

00:44:12.500 They're the wrong people.

00:44:14.700 Another thing about Andrew there.

00:44:16.220 Alright, let's move on.

00:44:17.660 The Express.

00:44:19.020 More Andrew stuff.

00:44:20.420 Here's a story.

00:44:21.060 Countryside to be made less white.

00:44:24.140 Quote, less white.

00:44:26.400 After a report finds

00:44:27.800 pubs make, quote,

00:44:29.520 Muslims feel unwelcome, quote.

00:44:32.560 Yeah, this is an actual government report

00:44:34.120 saying that we should very deliberately

00:44:38.060 proactively make rural areas less white.

00:44:44.460 By design, move minorities 1.00

00:44:46.340 into the majority white rural areas.

00:44:51.060 Could you get more evil, really?

00:44:56.240 This whole story that comes up

00:44:57.740 from time to time,

00:44:59.320 I really do think is truly, truly, truly evil.

00:45:01.980 It's like the Runnymede Trust type stuff.

00:45:04.960 Where it's like they want 0.57

00:45:06.100 not just a multicultural,

00:45:07.840 but a multi-ethnic Britain

00:45:10.040 everywhere, as quickly as possible,

00:45:13.160 everywhere.

00:45:14.440 Like if there's enclaves of whiteness, 0.97

00:45:17.340 then we've got to get minorities in there. 0.99

00:45:22.060 How is that? 0.97

00:45:23.960 Muslims, pubs make Muslims feel unwelcome. 0.94

00:45:26.700 Well, they don't have to go to the pub, do they? 0.98

00:45:29.240 In fact, they could go back

00:45:30.120 to a majority Muslim country, couldn't they,

00:45:31.840 if they feel unwelcome?

00:45:34.240 Why is it our job to make them feel welcome

00:45:36.320 at every possible turn?

00:45:38.140 We've got to be made

00:45:40.480 for them to be made to be felt welcome

00:45:45.480 at the expense of closing down all pubs

00:45:48.800 or something

00:45:49.460 at the expense of tiny little villages

00:45:53.380 and hamlets. 0.99

00:45:55.300 You're too white. 1.00

00:45:56.280 You're not allowed to be that white. 1.00

00:45:58.900 What? 0.99

00:45:59.120 What madness.

00:46:02.440 What madness is this?

00:46:06.280 Apparently, Rose West carried out 1.00

00:46:07.840 a sex attack on a young inmate

00:46:09.640 after grooming her for weeks. 0.82

00:46:12.360 Yeah, Rose West. 0.81

00:46:13.880 Harry, do you know much about

00:46:14.880 Fred and Rose West?

00:46:16.180 Have you ever heard about that?

00:46:16.980 Is that soon before your time?

00:46:18.700 I don't.

00:46:20.100 Oh, okay.

00:46:21.860 Just really, really terrible 0.86

00:46:23.180 serial killers.

00:46:26.480 Rose West.

00:46:28.840 Anyway, I haven't got time

00:46:29.640 to go into that here.

00:46:30.360 Anyway, another time.

00:46:31.360 Oh, look, The Sun Leads

00:46:32.600 with Sir Lewis and Kim.

00:46:37.520 Rose West.

00:46:38.700 Pure slop.

00:46:39.860 Look at this.

00:46:40.760 Music's Big Night.

00:46:41.840 Sabrina Carpenter.

00:46:42.820 Don't know who that is

00:46:43.620 and don't care.

00:46:45.620 And Olivia Dean.

00:46:47.120 Don't know who that is

00:46:47.760 and don't care.

00:46:48.260 Bring Hollywood glam

00:46:49.620 back to Grammy's red carpet

00:46:51.160 as Addison Rae

00:46:52.700 don't know who that is

00:46:53.380 and don't care

00:46:53.960 has Marilyn Monroe moment.

00:46:55.840 Could not care less.

00:47:01.160 Let's move on.

00:47:03.580 The New York Slimes.

00:47:05.200 Move fast, but obey the rules.

00:47:06.960 China's vision for dominating AI.

00:47:09.540 Yeah, both America, the UK and China

00:47:11.340 all have said openly

00:47:13.240 they want to dominate the AI market.

00:47:16.320 Don't know why.

00:47:16.780 Large language models

00:47:19.120 that are often wrong still.

00:47:21.940 Really?

00:47:22.720 I know there's more to it than that.

00:47:23.760 I'm being tracked.

00:47:26.200 Trump says Kennedy Center

00:47:27.680 will close for two years

00:47:28.740 reconstruction project.

00:47:29.880 Yeah, the Kennedy Center there.

00:47:31.120 The sort of big memorial basically.

00:47:34.560 Trump's going to try and renovate it.

00:47:37.060 Okay, that's big news apparently.

00:47:39.760 The Washington Post.

00:47:40.520 Trump plans to close Kennedy Center

00:47:42.380 for renovations.

00:47:44.380 Sky News Australia.

00:47:46.000 Oh, yeah.

00:47:48.240 Go for your life, mate.

00:47:49.860 How good.

00:47:51.640 Coalition talks underway

00:47:53.120 as Nationals demand

00:47:54.340 shadow minister

00:47:55.200 reinstatements.

00:47:57.200 The Nationals have called

00:47:58.680 a party room meeting

00:48:00.320 in a bid to reunite

00:48:01.600 with the Liberal Party

00:48:02.620 as leader David Littleproud

00:48:04.580 continues to demand

00:48:06.400 shadow ministers

00:48:07.140 be reinstated.

00:48:07.520 So there's

00:48:08.700 I'm going to try and

00:48:09.760 rekindle that coalition.

00:48:12.040 Fiery scenes

00:48:12.720 as nurses accused

00:48:13.720 of threatening

00:48:14.220 Israeli patients

00:48:15.140 face court.

00:48:16.400 Yeah, and their supporters

00:48:17.140 outside court

00:48:17.840 just bat away

00:48:19.160 anyone trying to

00:48:20.160 ask them questions.

00:48:22.260 You know,

00:48:22.960 because

00:48:23.180 it's the religion of peace,

00:48:26.260 isn't it?

00:48:26.520 Why wouldn't you just be

00:48:27.460 extremely,

00:48:29.520 extremely rude

00:48:30.720 and not even

00:48:31.720 ever so slightly

00:48:32.900 physical and violent

00:48:34.880 with reporters

00:48:35.580 trying to ask

00:48:36.180 reasonable questions?

00:48:37.180 Why wouldn't you?

00:48:39.680 Japan's,

00:48:40.160 funny Japan's got 1.00

00:48:40.800 nothing about the

00:48:41.540 Epstein stuff.

00:48:42.180 Absolutely nothing.

00:48:42.840 Love it.

00:48:43.500 K-pop demon hunters 1.00

00:48:44.380 they're talking about.

00:48:45.180 K-pop demon hunters, 0.99

00:48:46.840 sumo and baseball.

00:48:50.060 Good old Japanese. 1.00

00:48:52.060 Don't give a fig.

00:48:53.520 Love it.

00:48:55.580 China.

00:48:56.280 China also isn't 0.99

00:48:57.220 very interested in Epstein.

00:48:58.440 Why would they be?

00:48:59.740 Xi urges breakthrough

00:49:00.760 in development of

00:49:01.620 industries of the future.

00:49:04.180 China's spring festival

00:49:05.340 travel surge

00:49:06.180 starts with record

00:49:07.100 trips expected.

00:49:08.720 China's wetland areas

00:49:09.920 ranked first in Asia,

00:49:11.260 fourth globally.

00:49:13.840 Foreign firms boost

00:49:14.760 AI-powered investment

00:49:16.340 strategies for China.

00:49:17.780 Nuclear energy sector

00:49:19.300 provides safe,

00:49:20.380 clean power

00:49:20.880 for China's

00:49:21.540 green development.

00:49:22.940 There you go.

00:49:23.300 Classic day on

00:49:23.960 for Chinese news.

00:49:26.200 Just we're doing

00:49:27.100 everything best.

00:49:27.900 We're the best.

00:49:29.400 We're the best around.

00:49:31.220 Love it.

00:49:32.220 Alright, the Ruski is 0.94

00:49:32.940 what the Ruski is saying

00:49:33.820 today.

00:49:35.920 Russia is not 0.99

00:49:36.680 interested in global

00:49:37.600 conflict,

00:49:38.440 says Medvedev.

00:49:42.180 Fair enough.

00:49:44.580 Maybe,

00:49:45.160 maybe not.

00:49:45.760 I mean,

00:49:46.640 not interested in

00:49:48.860 actual sort of

00:49:51.220 hard power

00:49:51.960 all around the world,

00:49:53.740 but

00:49:54.400 interested in

00:49:56.320 sticking their oar in

00:49:57.380 in

00:49:57.700 various global

00:49:59.080 conflicts.

00:49:59.780 Well,

00:49:59.960 yeah,

00:50:00.560 so.

00:50:03.380 Russian companies

00:50:04.160 in talks

00:50:05.840 to build

00:50:06.820 small

00:50:07.260 hydroelectric

00:50:07.960 power plants

00:50:08.600 in Afghanistan.

00:50:09.380 Good luck with that.

00:50:10.580 We tried that.

00:50:11.260 The British tried that 0.99

00:50:11.940 in Helmand

00:50:12.460 once or twice.

00:50:13.740 Try and build a

00:50:14.320 power station for them.

00:50:16.920 It's done by

00:50:17.580 Kaffir

00:50:17.900 and they blow it up.

00:50:18.540 Quite often

00:50:24.940 they don't accept

00:50:25.860 any help

00:50:26.720 from non-believers.

00:50:29.940 There was one time

00:50:30.420 the Brits

00:50:30.820 and like the Royal

00:50:31.620 Logistics,

00:50:32.720 the Royal Engineers

00:50:33.380 tried to help build

00:50:34.880 a power station

00:50:35.560 somewhere

00:50:35.880 or a mini power plant

00:50:37.020 somewhere other

00:50:37.560 in Afghanistan.

00:50:38.900 Spent millions

00:50:39.760 and millions

00:50:40.100 and millions

00:50:40.500 of pounds on it

00:50:41.320 and loads of

00:50:42.060 loads of time

00:50:43.480 and energy.

00:50:44.520 Got it all in place

00:50:45.520 a few days,

00:50:46.540 a few weeks

00:50:46.960 after it was running

00:50:47.740 they blew it up

00:50:49.260 themselves deliberately

00:50:50.420 because it was

00:50:51.440 ungodly or something.

00:50:53.820 It was built by

00:50:54.600 invading force

00:50:56.200 it was built by

00:50:56.680 Kaffir non-believers 1.00

00:50:57.480 so we'll do without it 0.99

00:50:58.860 we'll blow it up

00:50:59.380 so good luck with that.

00:51:01.240 Sama speaks in favour

00:51:02.220 of UK joining

00:51:03.040 EU Defence Fund

00:51:03.960 there you go.

00:51:06.460 Wants closer ties

00:51:07.240 including military ties

00:51:08.140 with Europe.

00:51:09.320 Exactly what

00:51:09.880 the majority of

00:51:11.160 Britons don't want. 0.74

00:51:12.660 Always acting

00:51:13.480 not in our interests.

00:51:15.320 Always failing

00:51:16.120 to do what

00:51:17.000 the majority of people

00:51:17.800 in this country

00:51:18.260 would like to see.

00:51:19.600 Always.

00:51:20.580 Russia and Afghanistan

00:51:22.300 to increase

00:51:22.920 number of direct flats.

00:51:24.920 Good for you.

00:51:26.620 Germany.

00:51:27.160 Not much in Germany.

00:51:28.440 It's a typical day

00:51:29.500 for build.

00:51:30.960 A car crash.

00:51:32.500 Always talking about

00:51:33.320 car crashes

00:51:33.840 in build

00:51:35.040 aren't they?

00:51:35.560 Always.

00:51:37.140 Always.

00:51:39.260 Some sort of

00:51:39.960 hammer attack.

00:51:41.580 Organised crime

00:51:42.160 type thing.

00:51:42.880 They go with a little

00:51:43.820 Andrew story there.

00:51:45.280 They've noticed

00:51:45.720 the Andrew story.

00:51:49.880 Something about

00:51:50.520 that fire again.

00:51:51.460 That terrible fire

00:51:52.140 in Switzerland

00:51:53.500 wasn't it?

00:51:54.160 More car crash stuff.

00:51:56.620 More car crash stuff.

00:51:58.380 Alright let's move on.

00:51:59.220 Oh there's blue dogs

00:52:00.000 in Chernobyl.

00:52:01.940 Chernobyl's 0.80

00:52:02.420 turned the dogs blue.

00:52:06.320 Says build. 1.00

00:52:07.920 That's not nonsense

00:52:08.480 I have seen that.

00:52:09.120 That's interesting.

00:52:09.920 Like only sort of

00:52:10.500 a blue tinge.

00:52:13.360 But yeah.

00:52:14.460 Very very interested

00:52:15.380 in Chernobyl.

00:52:17.420 Le Monde.

00:52:18.720 The French

00:52:19.260 are talking about

00:52:19.880 Sudan today

00:52:20.520 for some reason.

00:52:22.700 This is a quote.

00:52:23.300 They shoot,

00:52:23.800 arrest,

00:52:24.200 extort.

00:52:24.720 It's constant terror.

00:52:25.780 Quote.

00:52:26.420 In Sudan

00:52:27.080 the RSF state

00:52:28.400 as told by

00:52:29.460 those who fled it.

00:52:30.520 A little blurb says

00:52:31.200 as the threat

00:52:33.800 of Sudan

00:52:34.360 being partitioned

00:52:35.460 looms

00:52:35.840 the paramilitary

00:52:37.540 rapid support forces

00:52:39.420 the RSF

00:52:40.680 claims

00:52:41.940 it could

00:52:42.900 govern

00:52:43.280 Darfur.

00:52:44.240 Those who have

00:52:44.900 managed to escape

00:52:45.620 describe a reign

00:52:46.500 of tyranny

00:52:47.040 and arbitrary rule.

00:52:48.160 I wouldn't want

00:52:51.600 to touch you

00:52:52.000 with a barge pal.

00:52:52.720 I don't accept

00:52:53.360 any people

00:52:54.720 from Darfur

00:52:55.340 or Sudan

00:52:55.880 or Eritrea

00:52:56.720 or anything

00:52:57.380 into our country.

00:52:58.740 Some of the

00:52:59.320 21-7 bombers

00:53:00.940 failed bombers

00:53:01.840 from Eritrea.

00:53:04.800 That whole part

00:53:05.420 of East Africa.

00:53:11.740 Sudan

00:53:12.260 humanitarian

00:53:12.740 crisis from Darfur

00:53:14.000 war spills

00:53:14.920 over into Chad.

00:53:18.160 All right

00:53:19.140 let's just move on.

00:53:20.180 Was there

00:53:20.420 space or science

00:53:21.280 things?

00:53:22.560 Oh yeah

00:53:22.780 they found

00:53:23.380 an exoplanet.

00:53:25.320 There you go

00:53:25.980 it says

00:53:26.260 as humans

00:53:26.800 return to the moon

00:53:27.540 scientists

00:53:27.960 confront the dangers

00:53:28.900 of deep space

00:53:29.720 radiation.

00:53:31.320 So some say

00:53:31.880 some people

00:53:32.760 say space

00:53:33.580 is all fake.

00:53:36.440 That you can't

00:53:37.260 even go up

00:53:37.820 into low earth

00:53:38.520 orbit

00:53:38.800 because you'll

00:53:39.340 just die of

00:53:39.820 radiation.

00:53:42.300 They've done

00:53:42.880 loads of research

00:53:43.460 it's one of the

00:53:43.860 biggest things

00:53:44.220 they've done

00:53:44.480 research on

00:53:45.140 over the years

00:53:46.220 with

00:53:46.920 Skylab

00:53:48.280 Mir

00:53:49.160 the International

00:53:49.920 Space Station

00:53:50.600 is researching

00:53:51.760 radiation.

00:53:54.800 But there was

00:53:55.460 a story

00:53:55.660 they found

00:53:56.020 a planet

00:53:56.520 oh yeah

00:53:57.380 earth sized

00:53:57.860 planet

00:53:58.220 spotted

00:53:58.960 with year long

00:53:59.820 orbit

00:54:00.300 an exoplanet

00:54:01.540 that's got

00:54:01.940 a very similar

00:54:02.620 length of orbit.

00:54:04.980 Interesting

00:54:05.240 interesting.

00:54:06.120 All right

00:54:06.440 let's have a look

00:54:07.100 at specifically

00:54:08.000 space.

00:54:08.820 There was

00:54:09.120 one or two

00:54:09.880 stories there

00:54:10.240 I thought

00:54:10.400 was interesting.

00:54:10.860 That's a cool

00:54:11.220 picture isn't it?

00:54:12.640 Just a particular

00:54:13.780 mission lands

00:54:15.580 down in Australia

00:54:16.480 it's just

00:54:16.760 cool

00:54:17.020 you can see

00:54:17.340 where it's

00:54:17.640 burnt from

00:54:18.220 re-entry

00:54:18.720 what was it?

00:54:21.340 Oh yeah

00:54:21.520 SpaceX wants

00:54:22.440 to launch

00:54:23.060 a whole bunch

00:54:23.740 of new missions

00:54:24.280 where there's

00:54:24.760 even more

00:54:25.600 satellites up

00:54:27.480 there

00:54:27.780 for sort of

00:54:28.740 an even more

00:54:29.460 comprehensive

00:54:30.060 coverage

00:54:30.820 SpaceX files

00:54:32.720 plans for

00:54:33.760 million satellite

00:54:34.940 orbital data

00:54:35.900 center

00:54:36.260 constellation

00:54:36.880 yeah

00:54:38.320 SpaceX and

00:54:38.920 Elon want to

00:54:39.440 send up

00:54:39.860 a million

00:54:40.760 satellites

00:54:42.460 for just

00:54:45.780 complete

00:54:46.100 coverage

00:54:46.560 China

00:54:47.340 China launches

00:54:48.360 all sat

00:54:49.300 3B

00:54:49.840 for Algeria

00:54:51.480 further launches

00:54:52.120 delayed ahead

00:54:52.860 of key human

00:54:53.520 space flight

00:54:53.980 tests

00:54:54.180 so yeah

00:54:54.480 there'll be

00:54:55.220 more human

00:54:55.980 space flights

00:54:56.580 soon

00:54:56.920 hopefully

00:54:57.440 the Chinese

00:54:59.400 are getting

00:54:59.760 involved in

00:55:00.260 that

00:55:00.500 and hope

00:55:01.540 there will be

00:55:01.920 the Artemis

00:55:02.440 missions

00:55:02.940 Artemis 2

00:55:03.980 and 3

00:55:04.360 in fact

00:55:05.140 NASA are

00:55:06.140 already putting

00:55:06.660 together the

00:55:07.320 rocket

00:55:07.660 for Artemis

00:55:11.700 2 to go

00:55:12.340 up

00:55:12.600 that'll be

00:55:13.140 this month

00:55:13.860 I believe

00:55:14.260 in Artemis

00:55:15.200 3

00:55:15.460 the idea

00:55:15.960 is they

00:55:16.340 actually

00:55:16.580 put boots

00:55:17.260 back on

00:55:17.600 the moon

00:55:17.900 ok

00:55:20.380 let's have

00:55:22.240 a look

00:55:22.540 on this

00:55:23.280 day in

00:55:23.580 history

00:55:23.920 in the

00:55:24.640 last few

00:55:25.040 minutes

00:55:25.400 alright

00:55:26.700 on this

00:55:27.060 day in

00:55:27.280 history

00:55:27.500 the 2nd

00:55:28.000 of February

00:55:28.480 in 1653

00:55:30.360 New Amsterdam

00:55:31.200 becomes a

00:55:32.200 city

00:55:32.560 later renamed

00:55:33.620 New York

00:55:34.180 if anyone

00:55:34.940 doesn't know

00:55:35.400 New York

00:55:35.800 used to be

00:55:36.180 called New

00:55:36.520 Amsterdam

00:55:36.800 it used to

00:55:37.260 be a

00:55:37.560 Dutch

00:55:37.840 colony

00:55:38.220 in the

00:55:41.880 17th

00:55:42.360 century

00:55:42.820 Britain

00:55:43.560 had

00:55:43.820 three

00:55:45.400 different

00:55:45.720 wars

00:55:46.060 with

00:55:46.380 the

00:55:46.800 Netherlands

00:55:47.180 and in

00:55:49.220 one of

00:55:49.440 those

00:55:49.740 the

00:55:50.640 peace

00:55:50.880 deal

00:55:51.120 was

00:55:51.360 that

00:55:51.640 we'd

00:55:52.080 swap

00:55:52.340 some

00:55:52.700 of our

00:55:53.500 colonies

00:55:53.820 with each

00:55:54.280 other

00:55:54.440 we'd

00:55:54.660 move

00:55:54.800 them

00:55:54.920 around

00:55:55.220 and in

00:55:56.220 one

00:55:56.320 of

00:55:56.440 those

00:55:56.780 Britain

00:55:58.560 was

00:55:59.200 given

00:55:59.600 or

00:55:59.840 England

00:56:00.120 as it

00:56:00.400 was

00:56:00.520 then

00:56:00.680 was

00:56:01.280 given

00:56:01.740 New

00:56:02.680 Amsterdam

00:56:03.040 at that

00:56:05.040 point

00:56:05.320 quite a

00:56:05.820 small

00:56:06.240 relatively

00:56:06.760 small

00:56:07.120 settlement

00:56:07.500 not

00:56:08.260 necessarily

00:56:08.760 destined

00:56:09.240 to be

00:56:09.700 a giant

00:56:10.160 metropolis

00:56:10.620 or anything

00:56:11.080 they got

00:56:12.600 renamed

00:56:13.100 New York

00:56:13.860 after the

00:56:15.680 city of

00:56:16.020 York

00:56:16.240 in northern

00:56:16.720 England

00:56:17.040 and the

00:56:18.040 rest is

00:56:18.340 history

00:56:18.700 so there you go

00:56:20.240 on this day

00:56:21.000 in 1848

00:56:21.900 Treaty of

00:56:22.720 Guadalupe Hidalgo

00:56:23.880 ends the

00:56:24.420 Mexican-American

00:56:25.020 war

00:56:25.340 Mexico loses

00:56:26.260 55% of its

00:56:27.400 territory to

00:56:28.120 the US

00:56:28.560 including

00:56:29.120 California

00:56:29.640 Nevada

00:56:30.060 and Utah

00:56:30.540 in exchange

00:56:31.400 for 15

00:56:32.020 million

00:56:32.340 bucks

00:56:32.860 yeah that

00:56:34.680 war

00:56:35.020 that

00:56:35.280 Mexican

00:56:35.580 American

00:56:35.900 war

00:56:36.280 very

00:56:37.680 interesting

00:56:38.120 lots and

00:56:38.480 lots of

00:56:38.700 people were

00:56:39.040 involved in

00:56:39.500 that that

00:56:39.740 go on to

00:56:40.020 be important

00:56:40.420 go on to

00:56:40.720 be presidents

00:56:41.240 and stuff

00:56:41.720 like UC's

00:56:43.380 S Grant

00:56:43.740 and a number

00:56:44.040 of others

00:56:44.460 lots of

00:56:46.100 people that

00:56:46.420 fought in

00:56:46.700 that war

00:56:47.100 as you can

00:56:47.720 imagine

00:56:48.100 were sort of

00:56:49.080 junior officers

00:56:49.780 become senior

00:56:50.440 officers in the

00:56:51.080 American Civil

00:56:51.620 War

00:56:51.940 lots of

00:56:52.520 them

00:56:52.980 but yeah

00:56:56.260 that's where

00:56:56.900 it's a very

00:56:58.500 interesting

00:56:58.920 war there

00:57:00.620 but you know

00:57:01.080 complete

00:57:01.480 victory for

00:57:02.720 the Americans

00:57:03.220 complete and

00:57:04.600 utter victory

00:57:05.300 ultimately

00:57:05.900 and yeah

00:57:07.880 forced Mexico 0.80

00:57:08.540 to cede

00:57:09.260 vast amounts

00:57:11.060 of territory

00:57:11.620 and pay

00:57:13.420 them a pittance

00:57:14.400 for it

00:57:14.760 in the

00:57:15.140 negotiated

00:57:16.100 peace

00:57:16.640 complete and

00:57:18.600 utter

00:57:19.040 victory

00:57:20.320 on this

00:57:20.880 day in

00:57:22.020 1901

00:57:22.560 Queen Victoria's

00:57:23.460 funeral takes

00:57:24.120 place in

00:57:24.620 St George's

00:57:41.120 old pictures

00:57:41.840 like that

00:57:42.180 I feel

00:57:42.500 are amazing

00:57:44.320 I love

00:57:44.640 looking at

00:57:45.020 old photographs

00:57:46.140 it's the

00:57:47.180 closest thing

00:57:47.660 you get to

00:57:48.140 a time

00:57:48.560 machine

00:57:48.940 right

00:57:49.340 it's the

00:57:50.040 closest thing

00:57:50.480 you'll get

00:57:50.740 to actually

00:57:51.240 looking at

00:57:52.540 the past

00:57:53.160 it's the

00:57:54.320 closest thing

00:57:54.780 to going

00:57:55.080 back in

00:57:55.440 time

00:57:55.680 fascinating

00:57:56.240 a window

00:57:57.340 snapshot

00:57:57.860 an instant

00:57:58.380 in time

00:57:59.140 that's sort

00:57:59.720 of real

00:58:00.100 I think

00:58:01.640 they're

00:58:01.920 incredible

00:58:03.020 I could

00:58:04.140 and sometimes

00:58:04.600 do

00:58:04.840 spend hours

00:58:05.800 and hours

00:58:06.280 just looking

00:58:06.800 at really

00:58:07.200 old photos

00:58:07.880 19th century

00:58:08.980 photos

00:58:09.560 early 20th

00:58:10.560 century photos

00:58:11.340 remarkable

00:58:12.800 snapshot in

00:58:13.580 time

00:58:14.000 absolutely

00:58:15.820 remarkable

00:58:16.300 all right

00:58:17.840 on this

00:58:19.100 day

00:58:19.260 1922

00:58:19.860 James

00:58:20.240 Joyce's

00:58:20.820 Ulysses

00:58:21.420 is first

00:58:21.840 published

00:58:22.260 in Paris

00:58:23.260 can't get

00:58:24.120 on with

00:58:24.380 Ulysses

00:58:24.740 don't know

00:58:25.060 about you

00:58:25.400 I've tried

00:58:26.000 to get

00:58:26.380 into it

00:58:26.620 a number

00:58:26.820 of times

00:58:27.320 never really

00:58:28.720 got on

00:58:28.980 with it

00:58:29.180 people say

00:58:29.500 it's like

00:58:29.700 the most

00:58:30.060 brilliantly

00:58:30.540 written thing

00:58:31.080 of all time

00:58:31.660 you're not

00:58:33.000 you're not

00:58:33.340 literary

00:58:33.780 you're not

00:58:34.100 a truly

00:58:34.440 literary

00:58:35.200 person

00:58:35.760 unless you've

00:58:36.880 read Ulysses

00:58:37.680 I can't get

00:58:38.220 on with it

00:58:38.480 I've tried

00:58:38.840 there's a number

00:58:40.340 of things I can't

00:58:40.840 get on with

00:58:41.220 Paradise Lost

00:58:42.500 very difficult

00:58:43.380 anyway

00:58:43.900 that's just me

00:58:45.080 maybe I should

00:58:46.220 give it a go

00:58:46.600 I haven't tried

00:58:47.060 in quite a few

00:58:47.560 years to be fair

00:58:48.140 on this day

00:58:49.940 1943

00:58:50.420 the German

00:58:51.560 6th Army

00:58:52.260 under Von Paola

00:58:53.500 surrenders

00:58:54.420 after the Battle

00:58:55.060 of Stalingrad

00:58:55.700 in a major

00:58:56.580 turning point

00:58:57.140 in Europe

00:58:58.600 during World War

00:58:59.140 2

00:58:59.340 arguably the

00:59:00.380 turning point

00:59:01.100 really

00:59:01.460 the Germans

00:59:05.420 never really

00:59:06.440 had the

00:59:07.060 strategic advantage

00:59:08.140 again

00:59:08.540 in the east

00:59:09.580 after that

00:59:10.860 it was one

00:59:12.060 long push 0.91

00:59:12.640 by the Soviets

00:59:13.320 all the way

00:59:14.140 to the

00:59:14.880 Reichstag

00:59:15.280 building

00:59:15.640 and Berlin

00:59:16.240 from that

00:59:17.000 point on

00:59:17.460 effectively

00:59:18.320 there's much

00:59:18.860 more to it

00:59:19.220 than that

00:59:19.460 of course

00:59:19.820 there were

00:59:20.900 a few

00:59:21.140 reverses

00:59:21.680 but

00:59:21.960 okay

00:59:23.760 on this

00:59:25.220 day in

00:59:25.420 1971

00:59:29.500 himself

00:59:29.760 president

00:59:30.140 and dictator

00:59:30.720 of Uganda

00:59:31.380 yeah terrible

00:59:32.740 thing if anyone

00:59:33.160 doesn't know

00:59:33.500 about Idi Amin

00:59:34.260 shorthand

00:59:35.500 for an insane 1.00

00:59:36.460 dictator 0.84

00:59:37.220 like properly 0.99

00:59:37.720 insane 0.66

01:00:38.660 Stewart

01:00:38.960 6155

01:00:39.860 says

01:00:40.200 good day

01:00:40.960 I'm sorry

01:00:41.560 if Trump

01:00:41.940 did something

01:00:42.680 if he did

01:00:43.720 something

01:00:44.200 wouldn't they

01:00:44.820 have used

01:00:45.180 it against

01:00:45.600 him

01:00:45.900 instead of

01:00:46.420 having to

01:00:46.940 do it

01:00:47.340 to do

01:00:48.380 the 30

01:00:49.140 charges

01:00:50.600 over

01:00:51.160 Stormy

01:00:51.560 Daniels

01:00:52.080 like you

01:00:52.880 said

01:00:53.040 not 100%

01:00:53.840 sure

01:00:54.160 but did

01:00:54.940 they try

01:00:55.220 to stop

01:00:55.560 him

01:00:55.660 well it's

01:00:55.940 an interesting

01:00:56.280 point

01:00:56.600 so

01:00:56.960 the thing

01:00:58.100 about that

01:00:58.520 is

01:00:58.900 that so

01:01:00.620 many people

01:01:01.140 are implicated

01:01:01.860 on so

01:01:02.340 many sides

01:01:02.940 of the

01:01:03.240 aisle

01:01:03.560 right

01:01:04.860 everyone

01:01:05.280 on the

01:01:05.640 democrat

01:01:05.960 lots and

01:01:06.340 lots of

01:01:06.520 people on

01:01:06.800 the democrat

01:01:07.220 side

01:01:07.560 are implicating

01:01:08.900 all of

01:01:09.300 this

01:01:09.560 Bill Clinton

01:01:10.500 and Hillary 1.00

01:01:10.820 Clinton

01:01:11.120 just the tip

01:01:11.700 of the iceberg

01:01:12.260 Alan Dershowitz

01:01:13.600 loads and loads

01:01:14.280 of people

01:01:14.780 loads and loads

01:01:15.640 of people

01:01:16.020 are on the

01:01:18.820 democrat side

01:01:19.480 are implicating

01:01:20.060 this

01:01:20.380 so the idea

01:01:21.500 that for example

01:01:22.160 during the

01:01:22.560 Biden administration

01:01:23.380 why didn't

01:01:23.860 they go after

01:01:24.360 Trump

01:01:24.700 if they've

01:01:25.020 got all this

01:01:25.480 info on

01:01:26.580 Trump

01:01:26.760 why didn't

01:01:27.380 they go after

01:01:28.040 him when

01:01:28.520 they could

01:01:28.920 well because

01:01:29.640 if you pull

01:01:30.760 on that

01:01:31.080 thread

01:01:31.520 it unravels

01:01:32.760 loads of

01:01:33.200 stuff and

01:01:33.520 puts them

01:01:35.280 in all

01:01:35.920 sorts of

01:01:36.200 hot water

01:01:36.640 it gives

01:01:37.300 them loads

01:01:37.700 and loads

01:01:37.900 of difficult

01:01:38.460 questions to

01:01:38.960 have to

01:01:39.180 answer as

01:01:39.540 well

01:01:39.680 I feel like

01:01:41.000 the calculation

01:01:41.820 was made

01:01:42.320 under the

01:01:42.680 Biden

01:01:42.920 administration

01:01:43.580 the Biden

01:01:44.460 DOJ

01:01:45.160 you know

01:01:46.560 Merrick Garland

01:01:47.160 or whatever

01:01:47.540 to not go

01:01:49.640 after Trump

01:01:50.840 and pull on

01:01:51.340 the Epstein

01:01:51.800 thread

01:01:52.280 because

01:01:53.340 yeah they

01:01:54.420 might be able

01:01:54.800 to make

01:01:55.400 Trump look

01:01:55.920 bad

01:01:56.480 or even

01:01:57.300 you know

01:01:58.520 get him

01:01:58.980 on something

01:01:59.520 sexual assault

01:02:00.420 stuff

01:02:00.980 but they

01:02:02.100 would also

01:02:02.520 be destroying

01:02:03.260 their own

01:02:03.680 side

01:02:04.020 people on

01:02:04.740 their own

01:02:05.020 side

01:02:05.320 a lot

01:02:05.880 even the

01:02:07.800 Obamas

01:02:08.240 or whoever

01:02:08.780 loads and

01:02:10.220 loads of

01:02:10.460 people

01:02:10.720 so I guess

01:02:12.080 they just

01:02:12.440 chose not

01:02:13.000 to do

01:02:13.440 that

01:02:13.720 just sort

01:02:14.660 of

01:02:15.540 trying to

01:02:16.100 go away

01:02:16.720 it's not

01:02:18.100 going to

01:02:18.280 go away

01:02:18.640 I think

01:02:19.200 that's

01:02:19.400 what's

01:02:19.560 happening

01:02:19.820 you know

01:02:21.360 the argument

01:02:21.860 that

01:02:22.360 they would

01:02:24.680 have used

01:02:25.100 it by now

01:02:25.720 to get

01:02:26.200 Trump

01:02:26.600 not necessarily

01:02:27.760 not necessarily

01:02:29.680 because of

01:02:30.220 what I just

01:02:30.580 said there

01:02:31.020 okay

01:02:31.500 Forty and

01:02:33.320 Barber says

01:02:33.960 it's time

01:02:34.840 for a

01:02:35.160 general

01:02:35.420 election

01:02:36.100 new

01:02:36.880 broom

01:02:37.200 and all

01:02:37.560 yeah I'd

01:02:38.720 like a

01:02:38.960 new

01:02:39.080 general

01:02:39.300 election

01:02:39.580 now

01:02:39.920 yeah I'd

01:02:42.900 love that

01:02:43.300 the same

01:02:44.840 person

01:02:45.460 half

01:02:45.940 this stuff

01:02:46.860 for

01:02:47.060 Sifi

01:02:47.380 says

01:02:48.880 sorry

01:02:50.040 I can't

01:02:53.720 even

01:02:53.880 I'm sorry

01:02:54.460 you're giving

01:02:55.640 some decent

01:02:56.080 money there

01:02:56.540 on Super

01:02:56.820 Chats 0.99

01:02:57.020 but I

01:02:57.240 can't

01:02:57.500 read

01:02:57.720 how to

01:02:59.440 say

01:02:59.700 your name

01:03:00.340 on there

01:03:00.660 I think

01:03:01.100 you know
