Speaker 1: It is the Jesse Kelly Show, Final hour of the
Speaker 1: Jesse Kelly Show on a Friday, and absolutely wonderful Friday,
Speaker 1: and we have so much great stuff still to get to.
Speaker 1: Some guy wants to yell about Iran. Some guy is wondering,
Speaker 1: are all his employee, all his coworkers just suddenly lazy?
Speaker 1: All that, we'll talk about, trips with your kids you
Speaker 1: can take as a father or mother, and so much
Speaker 1: more coming up in the final hour of the Jesse
Speaker 1: Kelly Show. But first, let's do another immigration update, shall we.
Speaker 1: This is I need to read this emon. I've got
Speaker 1: a hobby. Who is she? Well, you know this guy
Speaker 1: abdul l said, running for senate in Michigan. This is
Speaker 1: his sister. Now, remember how many times we've talked about
Speaker 1: how the communist sees himself. He sees himself as a
Speaker 1: communist first, and he will always put communism first. If
Speaker 1: he's in your church, communism is first. If he's in
Speaker 1: your company, communism is first. If he's your school teacher,
Speaker 1: communism is first. If he's a general, communism comes first
Speaker 1: before everything else. The party always comes first. He is
Speaker 1: an infiltrader and sees himself as an infiltrator. His intention
Speaker 1: is to use whatever you have mistakenly allowed him into
Speaker 1: use it for the revolution. What's that sound like? Ow,
Speaker 1: let's go to Amon, please explain it to us.
Speaker 2: The University of Chicago it's evil, like, you know, it's
Speaker 2: a colonial landlord, Like why would I?
Speaker 1: Why would I put any of my term employer? By
Speaker 1: the way, University of Chicago, I'll start it again. University
Speaker 1: of Chicago is her employer. I think former now, but listen, the.
Speaker 2: University of Chicago. It's evil, like, you know, it's a
Speaker 2: colonial landlord, Like why would I? Why would I put
Speaker 2: any of my political energy into this space?
Speaker 1: And I kind of had a little bit of.
Speaker 2: Disdain for for like people who spend a lot of
Speaker 2: time doing that. We don't have power. We could shift
Speaker 2: the moral authority all we want. We've won the moral question,
Speaker 2: like that was the imperative that we've had. We done
Speaker 2: check like put Palestine in the national consciousness. We did it,
Speaker 2: you know, make people sympathetic to Palestine, teach the history.
Speaker 1: We did it.
Speaker 2: Like now you have white boys on the North side
Speaker 2: of Chicago being like, hey, man, free Palestine. I'm like, oh, okay, now,
Speaker 2: did not see it? Coming glad it's here. I think
Speaker 2: the question that I'm asking myself and I'm asking you
Speaker 2: to ask yourself, is where can I actually build power?
Speaker 2: Turns out I work at one of the biggest employers.
Speaker 3: In the city of Chicago.
Speaker 2: I work at a place that is a landlord, a
Speaker 2: health care provider, a police force, right and a place
Speaker 2: where I have access to thousands of people that I
Speaker 2: could potentially organize. However, but I'm just like, actually, this
Speaker 2: is where I need to build power, right, Like, this
Speaker 2: is my big best possible structural leverage. And so I do.
Speaker 2: I do one on ones with my liberal colleagues who
Speaker 2: are like, well, I don't know, but you know, I
Speaker 2: just think we should live the life of the mind.
Speaker 3: Here are in a high park.
Speaker 2: I was like, yeah, you know, I hear you totally.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you see how they see themselves. You're confused why
Speaker 1: that lady who runs the library set up a tranny
Speaker 1: section in the kids section. That's because you think you're
Speaker 1: looking at a librarian. You're looking at a communist. A
Speaker 1: communist wearing the skin suit of a librarian. She's there
Speaker 1: for the revolution. She's not there to make sure the
Speaker 1: books are in order. That's something she does that's kind
Speaker 1: of an annoying side gig. That's how they see themselves.
Speaker 1: Dear Shogun. I've been with my current employer for twenty
Speaker 1: one years, and I can't help but feel like the
Speaker 1: people I work with now don't give a crap about
Speaker 1: anything anymore. That drives me insane. People telling me they
Speaker 1: don't want to do anything above and beyond for customers.
Speaker 1: Am I crazy? Or is the quality of the workplace
Speaker 1: in serious decline? Did the lockdowns really destroy everything? Well?
Speaker 1: I could. I'm very tempted to go off on the
Speaker 1: mass importation of foreigners right now and how that has
Speaker 1: destroyed customer service, but we'll set that aside. You've heard
Speaker 1: me go off on that enough. You mentioned COVID, and
Speaker 1: I'm glad you mentioned COVID. Let's do one of my
Speaker 1: favorite things and talk about what I told you a
Speaker 1: long time ago. I told you during the COVID lockdowns
Speaker 1: that this would that we would suffer economically for generations
Speaker 1: for years. Yeah, all true. Do you remember what I
Speaker 1: said about COVID, the remote work that was popping up
Speaker 1: for COVID, and how negatively it would affect the entire
Speaker 1: economy in the United States of America Jewish producer Chris
Speaker 1: is not in his head. I bet you remember if
Speaker 1: you were listening. In case you weren't, or in case
Speaker 1: you happened to forget. What I said was this, everybody
Speaker 1: wants to work from home. Totally get it. I love
Speaker 1: wearing my Jammy's too. Everyone wants to work from home.
Speaker 1: I just want I'll go to my desk and sit
Speaker 1: with my dog Buffy and on my computer, right and
Speaker 1: you never have to go to work. I got it
Speaker 1: because we told people they had to stand six feet
Speaker 1: away from everyone else. This is still the dumbest thing
Speaker 1: I've ever heard in my life. Companies started closing their locations,
Speaker 1: if not outright closing it, they told employees, Hey, just
Speaker 1: go work from home. This was not a rare thing
Speaker 1: in the United States of America. This was the norm.
Speaker 1: Work from home, work from home, work from home. It
Speaker 1: became how people think about work. When the work from
Speaker 1: home orders started stopping. I know, that's a weird way
Speaker 1: to put that. When companies started putting out the memo, hey,
Speaker 1: everyone come back to work now, they had to kind
Speaker 1: of baby step their way into it. Lots of times, Hey,
Speaker 1: everyone's required to come into the office once a week,
Speaker 1: just once, guys, We're not gonna ask every day. Why
Speaker 1: why didn't those companies just step up and say, Okay,
Speaker 1: this work from home crap is over. The COVID stuff
Speaker 1: has passed. Get your butt into the office. You know
Speaker 1: why people would quit. You know why people would quit
Speaker 1: because the mindset of the American worker changed. Some people
Speaker 1: have taken themselves completely out of the workforce and they
Speaker 1: never returned. They got used to leaving work, sitting at home,
Speaker 1: collect a government check of some kind, just kind of exist.
Speaker 1: Other people going into the office. It's now a burden.
Speaker 1: I don't like this. I used to work in my
Speaker 1: Jammi's at home with Fluffy. Now I have to get up, shower,
Speaker 1: make myself presentable. I have to go deal with people.
Speaker 1: Oftentimes people I don't like. I mean, who likes their
Speaker 1: co all their coworkers, I don't like either of mine.
Speaker 1: That's how it works right now. The mindset of the
Speaker 1: American population, the American employee population has changed, and people
Speaker 1: just don't want to be there. Oftentimes it's not universal,
Speaker 1: but it's true. Hey, part time, it's not nice. Those
Speaker 1: thirty hours of work. The last two weeks had to
Speaker 1: be exhausting. Glad you took Monday this week to recover. Okay,
Speaker 1: you know, Don Junior? Can you ask him what exactly
Speaker 1: dad was thinking? With the Iran adventuring, this will not
Speaker 1: only torpedo are midterms, but could very well bury Vans
Speaker 1: or Rubio ticket in twenty eight. How can either of
Speaker 1: those guys divorce themselves from this colossal blunder. Trump has
Speaker 1: always been a no foreign war guy, yet here we
Speaker 1: are very frustrated anti communist here. I can't deny this
Speaker 1: blunder when debating them food question, what's the go to
Speaker 1: taco bell order? If the darkness has set in? And
Speaker 1: he said his name is Chris, Well, no, I'm not
Speaker 1: going to ask Don Junior what his dad was thinking.
Speaker 1: And because he's a friend, even if I did, I
Speaker 1: couldn't ask him that and then bring it to you
Speaker 1: without permission. I'd have to ask him, Hey, can I
Speaker 1: tell people that? That would be a violation of trust.
Speaker 1: That wouldn't be right. We're not going to know exactly
Speaker 1: what he was thinking.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 1: I have my theory and I stand by my theory.
Speaker 1: My theory is this, human beings like to use power.
Speaker 1: We all do you do and I do. We're just
Speaker 1: born that way. When you have power, you like to
Speaker 1: use it. If I put you in behind the wheel
Speaker 1: of a Lamborghini, you would be tempted if that road
Speaker 1: opened up and there weren't any cops around to see
Speaker 1: what it can do. Power is at your hands. You
Speaker 1: have a desire to use it. I have never and
Speaker 1: will never have this power, and you won't have it either.
Speaker 1: Imagine being made master and commander of the most powerful
Speaker 1: military on the planet. Do you think you'd be tempted
Speaker 1: to use it? Do you think you would look at
Speaker 1: it and say to yourself, I wonder what they can do?
Speaker 1: You know what I have things I want to do.
Speaker 1: They work for me. Maybe we should go do those things.
Speaker 1: Do you know the story of Crassus? How Crassis met
Speaker 1: his end? Want to pause for a second, do just
Speaker 1: a little brief, just a couple of minutes history story
Speaker 1: with me. It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Friday.
Speaker 1: Reminding you you can email the show Jesse at Jesse
Speaker 1: kellyshow dot com. So I tease the little story of Crassus,
Speaker 1: the story of many of you may already know. But
Speaker 1: who was Crassus? Well, Crassus was an incredibly wealthy man
Speaker 1: in ancient Rome. Some say the wealthiest man who ever lived,
Speaker 1: one of the wealthiest men who ever lived. I mean,
Speaker 1: I don't know how you could possibly calculate all that,
Speaker 1: but you can say he was super super wealthy. But
Speaker 1: the Romans, the Romans were extremely ambitious, absurdly ambitious, and
Speaker 1: they drove that point home to the next generation. You
Speaker 1: will succeed, you will do great things. You will go
Speaker 1: find glory and battlefield glory. If you wanted to be
Speaker 1: a quote great man in Rome, battlefield glory was necessary.
Speaker 1: They felt pressure. If there wasn't a war and you
Speaker 1: were on the rise in high society, you felt pressure
Speaker 1: to find a war. Hey is there somebody I can fight?
Speaker 1: That's how they were and this help there, this help there.
Speaker 1: Empire gained unbelievable heights, of course, this ambition. But to
Speaker 1: a guy like Crassus, well, Crassus is this major businessman,
Speaker 1: crooked as all get out, But this major businessman has
Speaker 1: all the money in the world, and in Rome at
Speaker 1: that time, that would mean he would have multiple homes,
Speaker 1: legions of slaves. He would want for nothing. His entire
Speaker 1: life could be just eating grapes and having slaves fan
Speaker 1: him in his bed, you know. I mean, it's everything
Speaker 1: you would picture from a decadent Roman. But crasses because
Speaker 1: he was a Roman, wanted to be something more. He
Speaker 1: needed battle field glory. Rome had this long which I
Speaker 1: won't get into the background of it, long dispute with Parthia.
Speaker 1: Desert people. Just think that way. Desert people, although it's
Speaker 1: not all desert that's not totally fair, but just think
Speaker 1: a barren desert people and tough at nails, and the
Speaker 1: Romans had not just rolled over them. Now, the Roman
Speaker 1: Empire was bigger and stronger, but the Romans had not
Speaker 1: just rolled over them. Crassus, when you have as much
Speaker 1: money as he did, could afford to raise an army,
Speaker 1: his own army. I want some troops. I'm going to
Speaker 1: buy them, train them, and I'm going to march them
Speaker 1: off to war. Crassus decided to make war on Parthia.
Speaker 1: Crassus marches his troops off to war in one of
Speaker 1: the cooler slash creepier scenes in the world. By the way,
Speaker 1: Crassus's son is in his army at this time. In
Speaker 1: one of the cooler creepier scenes, Crassus in his troops
Speaker 1: they spot the Parthians coming at them from a distance.
Speaker 1: The Parthians are all on horseback. That's to be expected
Speaker 1: the Parthians. The horses look a little weird, but they're
Speaker 1: not making too much of it. At the time, the
Speaker 1: Romans get themselves into battle formation. The Parthians at whatever
Speaker 1: the right moment was, and the historical sources are obviously
Speaker 1: very vague. Rip what was the covering off of their
Speaker 1: horses to display that their horses were armored? They had
Speaker 1: armored horses on top of the fact they had armored horses.
Speaker 1: These were horseback archer people, very similar to the Mongols
Speaker 1: and the Huns and things like that. It's what they did.
Speaker 1: Have you ever read stories about a Mongolian warrior running
Speaker 1: away from someone on his horse, but then turning around
Speaker 1: and firing his bow backwards. Do you know what that's called.
Speaker 1: That's the Parthian shot. That tells you the kind of
Speaker 1: people you're dealing with here. And their bows were absurdly powerful,
Speaker 1: absurdly powerful, way more powerful than the bows the Romans
Speaker 1: had dealt with. Now, a Roman shield, maybe you've thought
Speaker 1: that a Roman shield is wood or maybe even metal.
Speaker 1: All those things would have been too heavy. A Roman
Speaker 1: shield was just layers and layers of what amounts to rawhide,
Speaker 1: rawhide mashed together. The only metal usually on a Roman
Speaker 1: Roman shield would be that circle you see in the
Speaker 1: movies in the center of it. That usually would be
Speaker 1: some form of metal. The rest of it is just
Speaker 1: super pressed raw hide. And that, of course works when
Speaker 1: you're facing some Gallic tribe and he's got a little
Speaker 1: axe in his hand or a sword or a spear,
Speaker 1: that shield will work just fine. But we weren't in Gall.
Speaker 1: We they weren't in Gall. They we're in Parthia. The
Speaker 1: Roman troops form up. They're obviously only worried about cavalry,
Speaker 1: so they do do a you know, a boxy cavalry formation,
Speaker 1: just form a little box because the cavalry, when it
Speaker 1: comes to cavalry versus infantry, they can't charge right at it.
Speaker 1: That's something stupid that really happens in the movies. They're
Speaker 1: not gonna charge right at a shield wall because then
Speaker 1: your horse justs get stabbed and or the rider gets stabbed.
Speaker 1: Then your horse is done. That's not what cavalry is
Speaker 1: used for. Usually, cavalry is used for flanking. You slam
Speaker 1: it into the side of a formation or behind a formation.
Speaker 1: You don't just do some full frontal charge. So if
Speaker 1: you're the Romans and you want to get yourself prepared
Speaker 1: to take on an army of all mounted horse or
Speaker 1: horse archers, what do you do? You just kind of
Speaker 1: form a square, so every side has the shields facing outward.
Speaker 1: And if that's what you form, what are they gonna
Speaker 1: do to you? They're not gonna slam into your spears
Speaker 1: and shields, right, yeah, Well that's not how the Parthians fought.
Speaker 1: The Parthians simply started to ride circles around the Roman formation,
Speaker 1: firing arrow after arrow after arrow. With the formation and
Speaker 1: those shields, they weren't stopping the arrows. The arrows were
Speaker 1: coming through the shield into men's arms, into men's feet,
Speaker 1: into men's legs, into men's faces. This Roman army found
Speaker 1: itself in a desolate area, in bad, bad trouble, being
Speaker 1: sworn by a large Parthian army that was tearing it
Speaker 1: to bits. Crassus's son must have been a brave young man,
Speaker 1: says dad, I'm gonna charge with some of my troops
Speaker 1: and chase them off. He takes off the Parthians. They
Speaker 1: run away, but not very far hang on, it is
Speaker 1: the Jesse Kelly Show on a magnificent, wonderful Friday, and
Speaker 1: asked doctor Jesse Friday for some reason shows to sidetrack
Speaker 1: the show with a little brief history story that I
Speaker 1: told you was two minutes. It's going on ten minutes,
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna wrap it up here in probably two minutes.
Speaker 1: Crassus's army is surrounded by the Parthians. The Parthians are
Speaker 1: firing these super powerful arrows into his army. The army
Speaker 1: is in dire, dire straits because the arrows can penetrate
Speaker 1: the Roman shields. Crassus's son says, Dad, I'm going grabs
Speaker 1: a bunch of troops and takes off after these Parthians,
Speaker 1: and the Parthians do what they were famous for, acted
Speaker 1: really scared, turned around and ran away. But all they
Speaker 1: were doing was luring him away from the main army.
Speaker 1: They lured him away from the main army. When he
Speaker 1: got far and out away, they turned around. Other Parthians
Speaker 1: showed up, and they butchered his son and all of
Speaker 1: his men to the last man. The next time Crassis
Speaker 1: got to lay eyes on his son. You want to
Speaker 1: talk about one of the most devastating moments from history
Speaker 1: if you're into this kind of thing. The Parthians rode
Speaker 1: back in front of Crassus and his troops with the
Speaker 1: head of his son on the end of a spike.
Speaker 1: Pretty heavy, right. It doesn't go any better from here,
Speaker 1: As you can imagine, Crassus finally say, hey, that's peace, right, Hey,
Speaker 1: can we talk this out the circumstances of what happens next?
Speaker 1: Nobody will ever know that the story is two thousand
Speaker 1: years old. Who knows, right, But Crassus and some of
Speaker 1: his guys go meet with the leadership and Grasis never
Speaker 1: comes home. Grasis was arguably the wealthiest, most powerful man
Speaker 1: on the planet who was living a wonderful, comfortable life.
Speaker 1: Grassus was the head of a powerful army. Grassis wanted
Speaker 1: to use it. He marched it over the horizon and
Speaker 1: there you go. Hey, Jesse, I took my seventeen year
Speaker 1: old son on a two day men's retreat to prepare
Speaker 1: him for his junior year of high school. Just two
Speaker 1: of us, Just the two of us. That's really cool.
Speaker 1: We we got to wake up early and pray together
Speaker 1: for our family and school year. We got to eat
Speaker 1: really good food. You can use your imagination what that
Speaker 1: means and read the Bible together. What types of trips
Speaker 1: do you do to get your sons on track? I'm
Speaker 1: thinking about next time inviting his friends and their dads
Speaker 1: to do something. But I'm trying to figure out what
Speaker 1: would be impactful for them, leaning towards camping and cooking
Speaker 1: over a campfire. But I'm sure there are other creative
Speaker 1: ideas out there. Okay, so for one, maybe go ahead
Speaker 1: and get this out of the way. Anything you do
Speaker 1: like that with your sons, any time you spend whatever
Speaker 1: that time is, is precious, wonderful time that benefits them.
Speaker 1: I don't care if your sons want you to play
Speaker 1: video games with them. I bought a video game Xbox
Speaker 1: and a head set because my son said, Dad, will
Speaker 1: you play? This is years ago, Dad, will you play
Speaker 1: the heck? Was it Call of Duty or Halo or
Speaker 1: something like that. I hadn't played video games since I
Speaker 1: was a kid. I said, yep, Xbox was in the house.
Speaker 1: The next day, that's what you want to do, Let's
Speaker 1: hang out. I don't care if you go shooting with them,
Speaker 1: camping with them. Obviously a men's retreat at Christian Men's retreats.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's top tier. I'll tell you this though
Speaker 1: more specifically, if you're looking for a specific idea, I
Speaker 1: don't go on this anymore. It's a little too far
Speaker 1: of a drive. But I'm sure there are men listening
Speaker 1: now who do go on this. A group of friends.
Speaker 1: I know, guys who have sons and daughters. Once a
Speaker 1: year they would take a trip down to McCallan, Texas.
Speaker 1: It's on the southern border of Texas. You're not going
Speaker 1: to know where McCallan is unless you're in Texas. That's fine.
Speaker 1: It's way down south in Texas, super hot. It's good
Speaker 1: dove country. There are doves there, and it's a two
Speaker 1: or three day affair. You stay in a hotel. You
Speaker 1: go out every morning, fathers and their sons and you
Speaker 1: go out. And you don't just go out and kill doves.
Speaker 1: The kids then collect all the doves. At the end
Speaker 1: of the day, the kids then tear the heads off,
Speaker 1: take the feathers off, prepare the doves. It's a requirement.
Speaker 1: The children do it. The dads sit around and drink beer.
Speaker 1: The kids are taking care of the doves. Everybody there
Speaker 1: then goes back to this guy's house. Who's there. He's
Speaker 1: got this sweet house. He's got a swimming pool in
Speaker 1: the back, and we've all been sweating a day all
Speaker 1: day long. He's got this sweet pool and a slide
Speaker 1: and whatnot. Everyone goes back to the house. The men
Speaker 1: start preparing all the doves, cooking everything. The kids all
Speaker 1: put their swimsuits on, dive in the pool. When they
Speaker 1: get done with that, the kids are and this is
Speaker 1: gonna make every kid listening WinCE, absolutely WinCE, But I'm
Speaker 1: telling you it's healthy. Okay, The kids are required to
Speaker 1: stand up and speak in front of the group. Everyone
Speaker 1: is gathered around. We'll call it ten dads, twenty kids.
Speaker 1: Everyone's gathered around. We're all stuff in our faces. Everyone's
Speaker 1: sitting there enjoying each other. Get up, tell people about yourself,
Speaker 1: tell people about your favorite thing about people, whatnot. And
Speaker 1: then they watch as men get up and do that too.
Speaker 1: You have any idea how beneficial that is with children.
Speaker 1: It's so so good for them. So look, it doesn't
Speaker 1: have to be dove hunting. You might not even have
Speaker 1: doves wherever you are. That can be a fishing trip.
Speaker 1: Be a fishing trip. One of the greatest things my
Speaker 1: father ever did for me in my life is when
Speaker 1: I was thirteen years old. I turned thirteen. We'd never
Speaker 1: done anything like this before. He got both of us
Speaker 1: a fishing trip up to Canada. Up to Canada. We
Speaker 1: were going to hunt, going to hunt. We were going
Speaker 1: to fish for northern pike and walleye up in Canada.
Speaker 1: We got on one of those otter planes. After we
Speaker 1: drove into Canada, we couldn't fly. We drove clear up
Speaker 1: into Canada way north, got on one of those otter
Speaker 1: planes that take off and land on the water. We
Speaker 1: then fly that deep deep We're on the border of
Speaker 1: the Yukon. That's how deep we are. And there's nobody around.
Speaker 1: There was an Indian guide at the cabin, and there
Speaker 1: were canoes and boats around, but no one was guiding you.
Speaker 1: There's no guides, there's no nothing that you your fishing
Speaker 1: supplies in the endless Canadian wilderness for four or five days.
Speaker 1: You get up in the morning, you go, get in
Speaker 1: a boat, and off to the wilderness you go. And
Speaker 1: when I would get my line all screwed up, when
Speaker 1: something would go wrong fishing, my dad would, well, you
Speaker 1: better fix it. And so I'm sitting there untying knots,
Speaker 1: learning how to tie things up, learning how to do this,
Speaker 1: learning how to do that. I think in those four
Speaker 1: or five days, I grew up four or five years.
Speaker 1: Just get away whatever. I don't care if it's taking
Speaker 1: them to the movies. The twity Obbs just left town
Speaker 1: for a few days. James is busy now, he's got
Speaker 1: cross country, he's got work, he's got school. He's unbelievably
Speaker 1: busy now for a seventeen year old. He's just bouncing
Speaker 1: around all over the place. But I told him, in
Speaker 1: no uncertain terms, every day you and I are, we're
Speaker 1: gonna go to dinner. Obviously it's gonna be waffle House
Speaker 1: because OB's not there. But we're gonna get in the car.
Speaker 1: We're gonna go to Red Lobster. I took into Red
Speaker 1: Lobster one night, took into waffle House. Just get in
Speaker 1: the car and drive and take him to dinner. Put
Speaker 1: the phones down, Put the phones down. My boys love
Speaker 1: to mock me for that. They'll put the phones down,
Speaker 1: but that's because they're a little smart Alex. But when
Speaker 1: we get in the car, phones go in the center console,
Speaker 1: phones go down that way. You zone it out on
Speaker 1: your phone. You're learning how to make conversation. That kids
Speaker 1: sat and talk to politics with me the whole time. Dad,
Speaker 1: What's going on with this? What's going on with That's
Speaker 1: going on? Just spend time with them. Just spend time
Speaker 1: with them. Fishing and hut and those are great ones. Though,
Speaker 1: you know, you know what else is great? Jd Vance's message.
Speaker 4: If we don't get this right, don't blame young people
Speaker 4: for being sympathetic to socialism.
Speaker 3: We've got to blame ourselves.
Speaker 4: And I think what is so unique and refreshing about
Speaker 4: Donald Trump's economic policies is that it's not the same
Speaker 4: old economic ideas that.
Speaker 3: You would have heard thirty forty years ago.
Speaker 4: He's talking about rebuilding our industrial base, rebuilding the heartland,
Speaker 4: making our streets safer, making it possible for young people
Speaker 4: to afford to buy a home. This is how you
Speaker 4: stop socialism. You don't stop socialism by throwing slogans at
Speaker 4: people about the free market. As much as I love
Speaker 4: the free market. You stop socialism by making people's lives better.
Speaker 3: And that's what we're trying to do every single day.
Speaker 1: That's good messaging. Let's go with that. That's very, very
Speaker 1: good messaging we'll be back. It is the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 1: Final segment of The Jesse Kelly Show on a Magnificent
Speaker 1: Friday and asked doctor Jesse Friday, we will be back
Speaker 1: Monday for medal of honor Monday. Get your questions emailed
Speaker 1: in now love Hey, death threats. All that stuff's fine too,
Speaker 1: Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com. Hey, Jeff, I'm not
Speaker 1: going to read that first parks. It was rude, Jesse.
Speaker 1: Like you, I love history, though I've always preferred it
Speaker 1: in the form of historical fiction. My favorite era is
Speaker 1: the French revolutions through the Napoleonic Age, as so much
Speaker 1: was changing in the world at the time. Would you
Speaker 1: consider Robespier he was one of the main leaders of
Speaker 1: the revolution and his reign of terror the original communists
Speaker 1: or do you think it goes back further. Also, the
Speaker 1: example of the bloodlust of crowds around the guillotine makes
Speaker 1: me hesitant to be in favor of public executions. The
Speaker 1: whole slippery slope concept. Okay, so Robespier and I've heard
Speaker 1: this before, and it's you could certainly argue it. People argue,
Speaker 1: was this Robespeer guy, He's going around butchering any Frenchman
Speaker 1: who had more money than him. Was he one of
Speaker 1: the original communists? No, I understand the argument, but no,
Speaker 1: you know who the original communist was Cain. Cain. Cain
Speaker 1: had a brother, his name was Able. Cain was filled
Speaker 1: with envy. Cain because he was filled with envy and
Speaker 1: he wanted what Abel had. Instead of deciding to go
Speaker 1: get it himself, Cain just murdered Able. I told you
Speaker 1: before that communism is of the devil. That's not just
Speaker 1: for radio purposes. Communism is as old that that evil, jealous,
Speaker 1: violent spirit that is as old as man himself. Because
Speaker 1: the devil is as old or older than man himself.
Speaker 1: That's a fact. It's it's as old as the planet,
Speaker 1: well as old as man. Put it that way, Hey, Jesse,
Speaker 1: serious question here that I trust your irudiation can shed
Speaker 1: some light on. I believe Obama is a legit commie,
Speaker 1: one of the worst things that happen to this country
Speaker 1: in my lifetime, and yet of all the modern presidents,
Speaker 1: he ranks highest by average annual percentage of illegal population removed.
Speaker 1: If Kami's won as many illegals in the country as
Speaker 1: possible to usher in the downfall of the USA, Then
Speaker 1: why would this particular COMMI deport so many Again, this
Speaker 1: is to remind you that communists lie about everything all
Speaker 1: the time. And whenever anybody says to you Obama deported
Speaker 1: more people than anyone, that should automatically raise red flags.
Speaker 1: Why do they say that because Barack Obama started reporting
Speaker 1: turnaways at the border as deportations. Those are, of course
Speaker 1: not deportations at all. That's not true. But Barack Obama
Speaker 1: was masterful at ushering in communism while sounding pretty reasonable.
Speaker 1: Sound he's a cool dude. He he doesn't hate the
Speaker 1: country that those That's what made Obama so dangerous. It
Speaker 1: wasn't the smooth talk, it wasn't the hatred of America.
Speaker 1: It was the combination of those two skills. Those are
Speaker 1: the people you have to worry the most about, not
Speaker 1: just the guy who wants to kill you. The guy
Speaker 1: who wants to kill you. But he's smart enough not
Speaker 1: to come right out and say it. While Barack Obama
Speaker 1: was doing every evil thing imaginable, purging the government of
Speaker 1: anybody who wasn't his ideological servant, filling the country with
Speaker 1: foreigners just destroyed our healthcare system completely destroyed our healthcare system.
Speaker 1: While he was doing all that, he knew enough to
Speaker 1: get up in front of the camera and be like, hey, man,
Speaker 1: I love this country. America is a great, great place.
Speaker 1: He was smart, Jesse. We know the communists will try
Speaker 1: to assassinate Trump, and it's clear there are people around
Speaker 1: him leaking his movements and are probably even trying to
Speaker 1: help you wrong get him. My question is what if
Speaker 1: they succeed. I remember when a communist took out Charlie Kirk,
Speaker 1: the rage and anger true patriots felt that day. I
Speaker 1: really thought we'd see violence return to those subhumans. But
Speaker 1: nothing happened. Trump is exponentially bigger than Charlie Kirk ever was.
Speaker 1: So if something did happen with things, file finally boil over.
Speaker 1: Do you know why why we didn't see a backlash
Speaker 1: of violence once Charlie Kirk was killed, Because I've seen
Speaker 1: this before and people lament that, hey, why didn't why
Speaker 1: didn't we go after them? They got one of ours? Well,
Speaker 1: the communists nurture individual nutballs. They do this online, they
Speaker 1: do this at the university system, and so a communist
Speaker 1: assassin oftentimes, yeah, he's gonna have some friends and maybe
Speaker 1: people who know. Oftentimes he's this loner sitting in a
Speaker 1: basement who watches too much TV, went to the wrong university,
Speaker 1: he got in with the wrong crowd, and he alone
Speaker 1: makes a decision to go kill somebody. Now, if that happened,
Speaker 1: and it looks like that's the kind of thing that
Speaker 1: happened to Charlie Kirk, If that happened, who are you
Speaker 1: gonna go after? If he's been sitting at home doom
Speaker 1: scrolling social media for five hours a day and then
Speaker 1: he watches CNN at night and love to get dropped,
Speaker 1: but then he's arrested, who do you want us to
Speaker 1: go kill? Who do you want us to attack?
Speaker 2: You?
Speaker 1: See, that's why there was no violent backlash against against
Speaker 1: somebody on the left. There was nobody we could just
Speaker 1: point to and say there, that's it. I mean, if
Speaker 1: it was the Sierra Club, one of those climate comedy groups,
Speaker 1: If a Sierra Club assassin had taken out Charlie Kirk,
Speaker 1: and we've found out shortly after that the Sierra Club
Speaker 1: the lead ship of it. They are members, They helped
Speaker 1: organize and plan the assassination of Charlie Kirk. You probably
Speaker 1: would have seen Sierra Club people be killed because it
Speaker 1: would have given you something to focus on, some some groups,
Speaker 1: some something. But that's not what happened. What happened was
Speaker 1: a nutball decided to do something terrible. Don't sit in
Speaker 1: stress about what may be all right. In fact, it's
Speaker 1: time to put your phone down. The weekend is here.
Speaker 1: Go spend time with your family. Soak it up, soak
Speaker 1: up every second. The problems will be here on Monday,
Speaker 1: that's all
