WEBVTT - DEI Hire 0:00:00.480 --> 0:00:12.880 And Jesse Kelly Shaw. Let's have some fun on a Tuesday. 0:00:13.200 --> 0:00:18.720 Oh gosh, did I miss you? I am here, and man, 0:00:18.880 --> 0:00:22.919 do we have so freaking much to discuss. We won't 0:00:23.000 --> 0:00:26.560 chop away at it. Yes, we'll do Metal of Honor Tuesday. 0:00:26.680 --> 0:00:29.120 Since I missed yesterday. I get to that in a second. 0:00:29.520 --> 0:00:33.519 We have great news about deportations. We have well, I'm 0:00:33.520 --> 0:00:35.080 gonna open up the show in a couple of minutes 0:00:35.520 --> 0:00:40.280 talking about everything around you. Dying white feels like everything's worse. 0:00:40.360 --> 0:00:44.280 We'll dig into that. I am aware that our counter 0:00:44.400 --> 0:00:48.680 terrorism director Joe Kent retired publicly today. Now there's a 0:00:48.720 --> 0:00:51.320 war of words. That's kind of how those things go. 0:00:52.000 --> 0:00:56.720 All that, the overthrow of Cuba, emails, so much more 0:00:56.880 --> 0:01:00.760 coming up tonight on the world famous Jesse Kelly's Show, 0:01:00.760 --> 0:01:04.480 including news out of China that you should really pay 0:01:04.520 --> 0:01:07.320 attention to. Before we get to any of that. I did, 0:01:07.360 --> 0:01:11.000 of course, show up today to emails like this. Stop 0:01:11.040 --> 0:01:16.280 missing Medal of Honor Monday. Stay focused on getting focused this. 0:01:18.920 --> 0:01:22.960 I wasn't sick, it wasn't the suits. The reason I 0:01:23.080 --> 0:01:27.240 was not with you yesterday was I was in the hospital. 0:01:28.080 --> 0:01:31.640 I am totally fine. It was not me laying in 0:01:31.680 --> 0:01:35.200 a hospital bed. It's also not information I am allowed 0:01:35.240 --> 0:01:38.800 to give you at this time. There was a very 0:01:38.920 --> 0:01:42.679 serious manner, however, and I had to be sitting beside 0:01:42.760 --> 0:01:48.040 somebody at their hospital bed, and I'm not sorry about it. 0:01:48.080 --> 0:01:50.360 That's the way it's going to be. I needed to 0:01:50.400 --> 0:01:52.880 be there, and so I was there. And now I'm 0:01:52.920 --> 0:01:56.920 back with you. This person is now alive in recovering, 0:01:57.160 --> 0:02:00.920 and that's all I'm going to say. Believe me when 0:02:00.960 --> 0:02:03.160 I tell you I would much rather have been here 0:02:03.520 --> 0:02:08.519 talking to you. Now we shall move on. So I 0:02:08.960 --> 0:02:12.840 know that everyone's talking about the resignation of Joke Kent 0:02:12.960 --> 0:02:16.360 today and now the war of words, and now every 0:02:16.440 --> 0:02:19.920 side is digging in. And but I'll address that in 0:02:19.960 --> 0:02:21.799 a little bit. I really will. I promise I will 0:02:21.840 --> 0:02:24.040 get to that. But as I have told you a 0:02:24.080 --> 0:02:29.720 thousand times, I do not believe in chasing the newest 0:02:29.760 --> 0:02:34.880 headline every single day. I just do not. If you 0:02:34.919 --> 0:02:37.720 really take a step back and you can dispassionately look 0:02:37.760 --> 0:02:42.400 at the news, it's kind of crazy. How how for 0:02:42.520 --> 0:02:46.000 a short cycle, maybe it's a day, maybe it's a week, 0:02:46.160 --> 0:02:49.200 two weeks, a month, there will be one story that 0:02:49.360 --> 0:02:52.040 is everything, and it is treated as everything, and it's 0:02:52.080 --> 0:02:56.200 all anybody talks about. And then like a light switch, 0:02:56.639 --> 0:03:00.120 people will just kind of switch and move on, and 0:03:00.160 --> 0:03:05.079 they'll go chase something else, and it's kind of revealing 0:03:05.360 --> 0:03:10.320 the whole game by the fact that sometimes the story itself, 0:03:11.440 --> 0:03:14.480 it hasn't been resolved yet. Everyone moves on. All the 0:03:14.520 --> 0:03:16.919 media outlets move on, the radio shows, the TV shows, 0:03:16.919 --> 0:03:21.280 Everyone just moves on. Remember remember when Russia Ukraine was 0:03:21.320 --> 0:03:23.639 all anyone talked about for a couple of weeks, It's 0:03:23.639 --> 0:03:28.480 all anybody talked about. Then everyone moved on. When is 0:03:28.520 --> 0:03:31.120 the last time you actually read a story about Russia 0:03:31.200 --> 0:03:35.200 Ukraine or heard some radio rant about Russia Ukraine in 0:03:35.280 --> 0:03:41.600 a long time? Right, Well, it hasn't stopped. It's still happening. 0:03:41.960 --> 0:03:46.640 Everyone just moved on. I don't like chasing headlinds. Try 0:03:46.680 --> 0:03:50.560 not to do that. Here. I want to talk about 0:03:50.640 --> 0:03:54.120 something and I'll tell you it occurred to me during 0:03:54.160 --> 0:04:01.760 my hospital visits yesterday and the day before. I started 0:04:01.760 --> 0:04:05.520 out in an emergency room. Again not me with somebody 0:04:06.320 --> 0:04:09.280 started out in an emergency room. And there were, of 0:04:09.320 --> 0:04:13.800 course few wonderful people in the emergency room, but it 0:04:13.920 --> 0:04:19.719 was pretty shocking how horrible the conditions were in the 0:04:19.760 --> 0:04:24.960 emergency room. And if I'm being honest with you, it 0:04:25.040 --> 0:04:28.120 was pretty shocking how horrible most of the people were 0:04:28.160 --> 0:04:32.640 who worked in the emergency room. I know there are 0:04:32.680 --> 0:04:35.880 wonderful people who work in medicine, but I was taken 0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:43.240 aback by how rude, disorganized, and ridiculous everybody was in 0:04:43.279 --> 0:04:45.680 that emergency room. Not everybody, most people were in that 0:04:45.720 --> 0:04:50.440 emergency room. I was shocked, shocked by and it got 0:04:50.480 --> 0:04:54.720 me thinking about the way things used to be in 0:04:54.760 --> 0:05:01.360 our country, not just in emergency rooms, in everything. Doesn't 0:05:01.400 --> 0:05:04.800 it seem like not ancient history, ten, fifteen, twenty years 0:05:04.839 --> 0:05:09.800 ago that things worked better. I mean, you've heard Daniel 0:05:09.839 --> 0:05:11.840 Turner come on the show and lament this, but we'll 0:05:11.839 --> 0:05:15.520 talk about it right now. A refrigerator. We have been 0:05:15.560 --> 0:05:18.279 in our house I think for five years now, five 0:05:18.320 --> 0:05:20.719 or six years now since we've been in this house. 0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:26.040 I think we're on our third refrigerator. Why dore refrigerators 0:05:26.080 --> 0:05:28.440 all die now? My parents' refrigerator I think lasted them 0:05:28.440 --> 0:05:31.960 twenty five thirty years. They all die now? Why is 0:05:32.000 --> 0:05:36.000 customer service worse? Why did things suck in the emergency room. 0:05:36.400 --> 0:05:40.559 Why is it worse to travel now? What is going 0:05:40.560 --> 0:05:43.560 on now? There are lots of reasons for this. There 0:05:43.560 --> 0:05:45.200 are lots of reasons for this, But I thought I 0:05:45.200 --> 0:05:49.320 could actually go to entertainment to point to a very 0:05:49.360 --> 0:05:55.120 important reason for it. Diversity. Diversity is a big reason 0:05:55.160 --> 0:05:57.400 why things in your life suck. Now that didn't use 0:05:57.480 --> 0:06:00.880 to suck. We just had the Oscar. No, I didn't watch. 0:06:00.920 --> 0:06:02.599 I don't care. I don't know who won anything. And 0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:04.920 that's not about the Oscars. I don't care about that. 0:06:05.680 --> 0:06:08.560 But if you're in the movie business, movie director or 0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:12.880 actor or whatever, that's your super Bowl. Everyone wants one 0:06:12.880 --> 0:06:15.080 of those Oscars sitting on a mantle. You know that. 0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:20.080 But you see there were certain boxes you had to 0:06:20.160 --> 0:06:23.159 check to qualify to win an Oscar. Did you know 0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:25.240 that if The Godfather was made today, it could not 0:06:25.279 --> 0:06:29.200 win an Oscar? Oh? Here, let me read it for 0:06:29.279 --> 0:06:33.919 you. You have to meet a DEI quota to qualify for 0:06:34.000 --> 0:06:37.240 an Oscar a lead actor. One of the leads has 0:06:37.279 --> 0:06:40.600 to be a minority. At least thirty percent of all 0:06:40.640 --> 0:06:44.240 actors need to be from at least two minority groups. 0:06:44.839 --> 0:06:49.080 The main storyline has to be centered around minorities. Oh, 0:06:49.160 --> 0:06:51.080 I could go down the whole list. And by the way, 0:06:51.120 --> 0:06:53.279 this isn't just some news story, it's an official list 0:06:53.800 --> 0:06:56.240 we found out. It's a checklist you had to check. 0:06:58.160 --> 0:07:00.960 Why did the movie suck? Now? I love going to 0:07:01.000 --> 0:07:03.719 the movies. We love going to the movies as a family, 0:07:04.120 --> 0:07:06.400 gathering the kids up the home in the car. So 0:07:06.440 --> 0:07:08.520 one of the times the kids are allowed to eat candy. 0:07:08.640 --> 0:07:11.800 Let's get some popcorn, Let's go sit down watch a movie. 0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:14.280 We haven't been to a movie in two or three months. 0:07:15.200 --> 0:07:17.440 We keep trying every weekend. Is there anything out? Are 0:07:17.480 --> 0:07:21.400 we look at? Its crap? Why did the movie suck? Now? 0:07:22.240 --> 0:07:25.880 Why does customer service suck? Why does your refrigerator suck? Now? 0:07:26.720 --> 0:07:34.679 Why is that diversity? Because we have destroyed industry after 0:07:34.760 --> 0:07:38.720 industry after industry and the United States of America by 0:07:38.760 --> 0:07:41.880 diversifying it. And as I've told you time and time 0:07:42.040 --> 0:07:46.640 and time again, diversity is the death of everything. It 0:07:46.680 --> 0:07:50.680 doesn't matter what you are trying to diversify. If you 0:07:50.920 --> 0:07:55.800 choose diversity, you set aside merit. If you choose diversity, 0:07:56.040 --> 0:07:59.400 you set aside merit. And if you set a side 0:07:59.480 --> 0:08:04.720 merit in anything, anything, making your refrigerator or making your 0:08:04.800 --> 0:08:09.760 movie or customer service. If you ever choose diversity, focus 0:08:09.920 --> 0:08:15.000 on diversity, you will slowly but surely kill whatever you 0:08:15.040 --> 0:08:20.840 are diversifying. And there's something else to this. It's even darker. 0:08:22.040 --> 0:08:27.000 We elected Donald Trump in November last November, and we 0:08:27.080 --> 0:08:30.240 lied to ourselves. Some people did shortly after that we 0:08:30.360 --> 0:08:35.160 had finally defeated things like di We find the defeated 0:08:35.200 --> 0:08:37.800 that that lost at the ballot box. And of course 0:08:37.800 --> 0:08:40.360 it didn't lose at the ballot box, there's no question. 0:08:42.120 --> 0:08:45.480 But I do need to remind you that the people 0:08:46.040 --> 0:08:50.199 who did that, they're still doing it. They may be 0:08:50.320 --> 0:08:52.600 quieter about it, they may be changing names, they may 0:08:52.640 --> 0:08:58.360 be changing titles, but these people they're not sorry. They're 0:08:58.400 --> 0:09:00.959 still doing it as fast as they possibly can. 0:09:01.000 --> 0:09:06.440 Diversity, equality, inclusion are literally, and that's not kidding, the 0:09:06.480 --> 0:09:10.040 core strengths of America. That's why I'm proud to have 0:09:10.080 --> 0:09:13.960 the most diverse administration history. Attacks into the full talents 0:09:13.960 --> 0:09:16.400 of our country now starts at the top of the 0:09:16.480 --> 0:09:17.240 Vice president. 0:09:17.840 --> 0:09:21.760 Our diversity is our strength and our unity is our 0:09:22.000 --> 0:09:23.080 power as a nation. 0:09:23.440 --> 0:09:26.440 Hi, I'm Major Rachel Jones, and what pride means to 0:09:26.520 --> 0:09:30.440 me is celebrating the diversity is our strength as a 0:09:30.520 --> 0:09:33.520 nation and as an army is diversity importance to the 0:09:33.520 --> 0:09:36.800 Air Force. Diversity is important to the Air Force because 0:09:36.920 --> 0:09:39.440 the world is diverse, because without it, we're limited. 0:09:39.640 --> 0:09:41.360 It's what makes the Air Force stronger. 0:09:41.920 --> 0:09:45.079 We currently have nearly forty percent women enrolled at the 0:09:45.120 --> 0:09:46.080 Coastguard Academy. 0:09:47.160 --> 0:09:48.120 This is Linda Fagham. 0:09:48.240 --> 0:09:50.800 I'm really excited about the talent and the diversity that 0:09:50.840 --> 0:09:54.640 I see coming through the academy. My daughter is in 0:09:54.679 --> 0:09:57.959 the Coastguard as a lieutenant and there is just nothing 0:09:58.000 --> 0:10:01.280 but opportunity for her and all of the men and 0:10:01.280 --> 0:10:03.760 women that have joined the service. I'm really excited about 0:10:03.960 --> 0:10:04.440 the future. 0:10:04.559 --> 0:10:06.679 As we look ahead, the Buchet will last refforts to 0:10:06.720 --> 0:10:10.120 modernize the State Department, including by expanning our training, float 0:10:10.440 --> 0:10:14.760 updating our technology, carrying out diversity, equity inclusion accessibility initiatives, 0:10:15.000 --> 0:10:17.679 including to make our overseas missions more accessible. 0:10:18.200 --> 0:10:22.640 The eyes and deity the university echoing conclusion is God, 0:10:25.040 --> 0:10:28.920 why haven't they changed? Well, that last little monster there 0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:33.319 gave the game away. Hang on, it is the Jesse 0:10:33.559 --> 0:10:36.920 Kelly Show. Oh and thank you for the reminder. Chris 0:10:37.080 --> 0:10:40.720 with the music. I almost forgot. It's Saint Patrick's Day. 0:10:41.520 --> 0:10:45.679 Happy Saint Patti's Day. To all my Irish brothers and 0:10:45.880 --> 0:10:50.559 sisters out there. I hope you drink responsibly tonight. 0:10:50.840 --> 0:10:51.000 Now. 0:10:53.280 --> 0:10:56.600 The reason I bring this up is because we can 0:10:56.640 --> 0:10:59.720 get so distracted by the current headlines of the day 0:11:00.600 --> 0:11:05.880 that we forget there are destroyers among us, destroyers among 0:11:06.040 --> 0:11:10.240 us who are religious zealous, and just because they don't 0:11:10.320 --> 0:11:12.559 sit in the White House, and the White House doesn't 0:11:12.640 --> 0:11:16.240 light up with rainbow colors anymore, we can convince ourselves 0:11:16.320 --> 0:11:19.920 that we have defeated these people, that they're dejected, that 0:11:20.040 --> 0:11:24.760 they have gone home to change their ways. They're not dejected. 0:11:25.080 --> 0:11:28.839 They haven't changed their ways because the open hatred of 0:11:28.960 --> 0:11:33.000 white people, of white Christians of America itself is a 0:11:33.320 --> 0:11:37.439 foundational principle for them. If you take that away, you 0:11:37.600 --> 0:11:41.640 destroy their entire religion, you destroy their entire worldview. So 0:11:41.800 --> 0:11:45.360 they're not sorry. They haven't changed. And this is why 0:11:45.559 --> 0:11:49.040 we have major cities in the United States of America 0:11:49.120 --> 0:11:50.559 whose mayors talk like this. 0:11:50.880 --> 0:11:53.040 I have done is I'm working with our hr because 0:11:53.080 --> 0:11:56.200 that's where hiring rests. As we work to recruit more 0:11:56.240 --> 0:12:00.560 and more people to become firefighters and particularly young black folks, 0:12:01.080 --> 0:12:06.040 and also ensuring that our HR department has fair practices 0:12:06.480 --> 0:12:11.520 that allow for more of black applicants to be in. 0:12:12.040 --> 0:12:16.520 Why do we need more black firefighters? Why is that important? 0:12:17.840 --> 0:12:22.880 It's not important. In fact, if you censor out people 0:12:22.960 --> 0:12:26.640 of other races trying to get more black firefighters, what 0:12:26.760 --> 0:12:30.960 you'll have inevitably will be less qualified firefighters and people 0:12:30.960 --> 0:12:35.160 will die. Remember that DEI doesn't just cost your son 0:12:35.280 --> 0:12:41.760 his job. DEI kills people. Let's go to New York, 0:12:41.840 --> 0:12:45.160 shall we. Let's meet the new fd Andy Commissioner. 0:12:45.280 --> 0:12:49.160 Bullian Bond Signor is a career first responder. In just 0:12:49.360 --> 0:12:52.520 nine days, she'll be running the world's busiest fire department, 0:12:52.960 --> 0:12:56.680 one of the most important appointments of the incoming administration. 0:12:57.000 --> 0:12:59.960 Although she never served as a firefighter, she is confident 0:13:00.480 --> 0:13:01.280 that won't matter. 0:13:01.679 --> 0:13:05.360 I know the job, I know what the firefighters need, 0:13:05.480 --> 0:13:08.920 and I can translate that to this administration who's willing 0:13:09.000 --> 0:13:09.439 to listen. 0:13:10.040 --> 0:13:12.839 I know what EMS needs. I have been MS for 0:13:12.960 --> 0:13:13.880 thirty plus years. 0:13:14.240 --> 0:13:18.120 Mont Signor is a trailblazer for the LGBTQ community. 0:13:18.480 --> 0:13:20.800 Who will serve Yeah, it was tough to tell un 0:13:20.880 --> 0:13:25.040 know the job. How does that keep the people of 0:13:25.080 --> 0:13:27.480 New York City safe? It doesn't. It'll kill people. Of course, 0:13:28.640 --> 0:13:32.640 never even been a firefighter. Oh, in case you thought 0:13:32.679 --> 0:13:35.320 that was old news, here's the Democrat nominee for Senate text. 0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:38.120 White skin gives me in every white American immunity from 0:13:38.160 --> 0:13:40.920 the virus. But we spread it wherever we go through 0:13:40.960 --> 0:13:43.839 our words, our actions, and our systems. We don't have 0:13:43.920 --> 0:13:46.040 to be showing symptoms like a white hood or a 0:13:46.080 --> 0:13:48.319 Confederate flag to be contagious. 0:13:50.440 --> 0:13:53.760 Yeah, And I think it's an important thing to recognize 0:13:53.800 --> 0:13:56.400 with all the attacks that are coming from MAGA toward 0:13:56.440 --> 0:13:59.240 our movement right now, all of them depend on taking 0:13:59.320 --> 0:14:02.800 these things out of context. All of them depend on 0:14:03.960 --> 0:14:06.600 cutting some of the quotes before they end, or cutting 0:14:06.600 --> 0:14:08.360 them at the beginning to kind of paint them in 0:14:08.400 --> 0:14:11.320 the worst possible light. And so forrat in that case, 0:14:11.400 --> 0:14:13.040 it was a tweet that was part of a larger 0:14:13.160 --> 0:14:18.040 thread about how we all have a responsibility to combat racism. 0:14:20.520 --> 0:14:24.240 They're not sorry. Oh would you like to meet another one? 0:14:25.240 --> 0:14:30.480 Meet Sarah Throne, Garyot Sarah Sorry, Trone Garriot. I don't 0:14:30.480 --> 0:14:32.120 know if that's how you say your stupid name of 0:14:32.200 --> 0:14:35.800 course it's a hyphenated last name. Nobody's surprised by that. 0:14:36.400 --> 0:14:40.160 You think Democrats have left this stuff behind. No, they haven't, 0:14:40.240 --> 0:14:43.359 because it's central to them. Except it's not just democrats 0:14:43.440 --> 0:14:46.760 running for office. They're in the HR department of your company. 0:14:46.920 --> 0:14:50.760 They're in air traffic control towers. They're firemen now, they're 0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:53.480 in the emergency rooms of the United States of America. 0:14:53.760 --> 0:14:56.440 They make your movies. Why does it seem like everything's 0:14:56.480 --> 0:15:00.480 crappier now because these people are an infection and they're white. 0:15:00.480 --> 0:15:03.080 Skin gives me in every white American immunity from. 0:15:03.000 --> 0:15:06.000 The wrong button. That sucked. That's awkward. Here it is. 0:15:06.440 --> 0:15:09.160 I never considered running for office, but then I had 0:15:09.200 --> 0:15:11.840 some friends who were like me run for office, some 0:15:11.960 --> 0:15:15.200 other women kind of around my age. And when I 0:15:15.280 --> 0:15:18.200 saw them do it, and I realized that I was 0:15:18.240 --> 0:15:21.360 frustrated with some things about our state government, I thought 0:15:21.360 --> 0:15:23.760 it's not really fair to expect someone else to fix it. 0:15:24.240 --> 0:15:26.720 That maybe I should step up and try to make 0:15:26.760 --> 0:15:30.360 the change that I wanted to see. And by being 0:15:30.440 --> 0:15:32.360 in state government, I can see that we have a 0:15:32.440 --> 0:15:36.360 long way to go in really representing our community. It's 0:15:36.400 --> 0:15:38.760 not a very diverse group of leaders. We don't have 0:15:38.920 --> 0:15:44.080 people from many religious backgrounds. It's mostly white, mostly Christian, 0:15:44.520 --> 0:15:45.479 mostly older. 0:15:45.320 --> 0:15:45.760 Men, And. 0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:49.760 If you just listen to them, they'll tell you who 0:15:49.840 --> 0:15:52.320 their enemy is. Hey, Sarah tell us more. 0:15:52.400 --> 0:15:56.720 A new threat that we see today is the GLBGQ movement. 0:15:57.680 --> 0:16:00.920 It's a challenging of that status quo, of the way 0:16:00.960 --> 0:16:04.800 that things have been, of who's a man and who's 0:16:04.800 --> 0:16:09.480 a woman, and how relationships are. It's very threatening to 0:16:09.600 --> 0:16:14.320 the idea of the white male powerful figure because it 0:16:14.440 --> 0:16:19.360 muddies the waters and makes things ambiguous and confusing. 0:16:20.320 --> 0:16:21.840 I just wanted to let you know we're going to 0:16:21.880 --> 0:16:23.320 move off this because there's a lot of other stuff 0:16:23.360 --> 0:16:25.600 to get to. I just wanted to let you know. 0:16:27.440 --> 0:16:31.640 That stuff is why it feels like everything's dying. That 0:16:31.960 --> 0:16:36.600 stuff because we have diversified way too much in this country. 0:16:37.360 --> 0:16:42.400 The second you focus on diversity, you replace merit. That's 0:16:42.440 --> 0:16:44.880 why these people are always trying to list their qualifications. 0:16:44.920 --> 0:16:47.440 I totally know what I'm doing. People who know what 0:16:47.480 --> 0:16:49.280 they're doing don't have to scream to you that they 0:16:49.400 --> 0:16:51.280 know what they're doing. They don't know what they're doing, 0:16:51.640 --> 0:16:54.480 they'll screw it up. People will die, and yet they 0:16:54.520 --> 0:16:58.440 will continue. Don't forget it? All right, talk briefly about 0:16:58.440 --> 0:17:00.480 the Save Act. Where we at with all that? All 0:17:00.560 --> 0:17:02.760 that and so much more is still to come on 0:17:02.880 --> 0:17:05.240 the world famous Jesse Kelly Show. Yeah, I'll get to 0:17:05.320 --> 0:17:07.640 this Joe Kent stuff in a little bit. Now there 0:17:07.800 --> 0:17:12.879 is new Maharaja and again the palace has the power 0:17:13.560 --> 0:17:16.359 of the dark light. It is dead. 0:17:16.480 --> 0:17:18.560 Please chere, my people. 0:17:19.880 --> 0:17:23.400 Happy Saint Patty's Day to everybody out there. Oh man, 0:17:23.560 --> 0:17:25.800 it is such a wonderful day. Now let's get to 0:17:25.880 --> 0:17:27.920 this because I owe you a bunch of these, Jesse. 0:17:29.080 --> 0:17:31.800 If somehow, some if Trump somehow gets the Save Acts 0:17:31.800 --> 0:17:34.240 signed in the law, then what happens when the leadership 0:17:34.280 --> 0:17:37.360 in Blue states simply refuse to abide by the Act? 0:17:37.840 --> 0:17:41.160 Can the states? Can the Feds force states to comply? 0:17:41.400 --> 0:17:44.199 Says his name is Eric Okay. First, when it becomes 0:17:44.320 --> 0:17:48.160 federal law. If it becomes If it becomes federal law, 0:17:49.760 --> 0:17:54.440 the states have to comply. Even the communist Blue states 0:17:54.760 --> 0:17:58.520 have to comply with the Feds. Sometimes, let's explain this 0:17:58.600 --> 0:18:00.399 and then we'll actually talk about the Save is that 0:18:00.400 --> 0:18:02.560 had a chance to talk to Eric Schmidt about this today? 0:18:04.840 --> 0:18:09.800 We have something terrible about our system right now. Occasionally 0:18:09.920 --> 0:18:14.640 it works for our good, occasionally it doesn't. Here's what's 0:18:14.760 --> 0:18:18.200 terrible about it. We have given up the Tenth Amendment. 0:18:18.320 --> 0:18:22.840 In this country where the federal government is small, limited 0:18:23.400 --> 0:18:26.679 and only has a tiny amount of authority, that's how 0:18:26.720 --> 0:18:28.680 it's supposed to work. Most of the authority in this 0:18:28.720 --> 0:18:32.920 country's supposed to go to the individual states. But two 0:18:33.040 --> 0:18:36.320 hundred and fifty years of rot has led us to 0:18:36.400 --> 0:18:41.480 a place where the federal government they give out huge 0:18:41.920 --> 0:18:46.600 sums of money to the states for various things, things 0:18:46.760 --> 0:18:50.920 like Medicare reimbursement. For example. It's a good example. State 0:18:51.000 --> 0:18:53.200 writes a check, Hey, I have a bunch of Medicare money. 0:18:53.560 --> 0:18:56.280 Federal government steals all of our money and writes a 0:18:56.400 --> 0:19:00.800 check to that state. Money flows into the federal treasury, 0:19:01.000 --> 0:19:06.200 and then that flows out to the individual states. Now, states, 0:19:06.400 --> 0:19:09.440 as you well know, they don't have their own currency. 0:19:09.520 --> 0:19:13.399 They can't print their own currency. States have to balance 0:19:13.440 --> 0:19:19.639 the budget someone or run a huge deficit. States most 0:19:19.760 --> 0:19:25.200 of them they need that federal money coming their way. 0:19:26.480 --> 0:19:29.960 So a state not only by the law, they have 0:19:30.080 --> 0:19:34.200 to comply with federal law. The federal government if you 0:19:34.400 --> 0:19:36.600 have a government that is willing to do it. The 0:19:36.760 --> 0:19:41.320 federal government can just simply say, okay, well you're not 0:19:41.400 --> 0:19:44.240 getting any money. Then we're seeing this right now with 0:19:44.320 --> 0:19:47.439 the Trump administration and some of these communists run states. 0:19:47.520 --> 0:19:52.320 They won't comply with things the federal government has desired. 0:19:52.960 --> 0:19:55.080 The Trump administration has said, okay, well you're just not 0:19:55.160 --> 0:19:59.879 getting any money. Then sorry, Well, these communies convertue signal 0:20:00.040 --> 0:20:01.760 all they want. In the end, they have to have 0:20:01.880 --> 0:20:05.560 that money or the state is going to go billy yup. See. Now, 0:20:05.880 --> 0:20:09.720 we love this situation when it comes to things like 0:20:10.160 --> 0:20:12.479 let's say the Save Act passes. Again, we're gonna get 0:20:12.480 --> 0:20:13.880 to that in a second. Let's say the Save Act 0:20:13.920 --> 0:20:16.640 passes and you have a communist state with a bunch 0:20:16.680 --> 0:20:20.439 of illegals voting, like California. In California, let's say they 0:20:20.520 --> 0:20:23.840 would say, hey, wow, we're not enforcing it. You don't 0:20:23.880 --> 0:20:27.720 have to show an IDA here. Then the federal government could, 0:20:28.480 --> 0:20:31.879 and it would under Trump, say okay, well no more 0:20:31.920 --> 0:20:35.240 federal checks for you of any kind. Well, California can't 0:20:35.240 --> 0:20:37.239 afford that. The state would go billy up. The state 0:20:37.280 --> 0:20:40.960 would declare bankruptcy. So you have the power of the 0:20:41.040 --> 0:20:43.240 purse to force them into it. Now, I told you 0:20:43.359 --> 0:20:46.640 before we had this talk that this is a terrible situation, 0:20:47.560 --> 0:20:53.080 but I just described a wonderful situation. Well, the situation 0:20:53.400 --> 0:20:59.120 is such that Red states need that money too. It's 0:20:59.280 --> 0:21:03.920 why on to the Biden administration. With the widespread communist 0:21:04.000 --> 0:21:08.440 abuses we saw from the Biden administration, you saw some 0:21:09.040 --> 0:21:13.480 pushback from Red states, but you didn't get some Red 0:21:13.640 --> 0:21:17.800 state coalition standing up to the abuses of the Biden 0:21:17.880 --> 0:21:22.399 communist government and saying no, you absolutely cannot do this. 0:21:22.840 --> 0:21:26.119 And you didn't get that because when a Democrat holds 0:21:26.160 --> 0:21:28.800 the power of the purse, they can do the exact 0:21:28.880 --> 0:21:32.440 same thing to Red states. It's not supposed to work 0:21:32.560 --> 0:21:35.600 like this, by the way, it's not supposed to work. 0:21:36.119 --> 0:21:39.399 So the federal government has that kind of power and authority. 0:21:39.760 --> 0:21:43.800 But when you start writing huge checks to states, when 0:21:43.840 --> 0:21:49.440 these things become law, then you're basically screwed. You're It's 0:21:49.480 --> 0:21:53.800 that scene in the movies where you need that ten 0:21:53.880 --> 0:21:57.480 thousand dollars loan from the mob. You run a local diner, 0:21:58.080 --> 0:22:00.399 You need a ten thousand dollar loan. There was a fire, 0:22:01.000 --> 0:22:03.760 you gotta do some fire repairs. Your bank won't approve you, 0:22:04.280 --> 0:22:07.760 So the mob they're gonna loan you ten grand. Oh, 0:22:07.880 --> 0:22:12.080 that ten grand's gonna come. But the mob guys are 0:22:12.119 --> 0:22:15.520 gonna eat for free, and then they're gonna eventually start 0:22:15.560 --> 0:22:19.320 taking money out of the till, and you're never going 0:22:19.440 --> 0:22:23.240 to be free of them. Completely works the exact same way. 0:22:23.880 --> 0:22:27.520 Now to the Save Act itself. I have always given 0:22:27.560 --> 0:22:29.280 it to you straight on things as I hear it, 0:22:30.320 --> 0:22:31.600 So let me give it to you straight on the 0:22:31.640 --> 0:22:38.680 Save Act. I don't know that it is dead. I 0:22:38.920 --> 0:22:42.760 assume it is dead. But right now, over the next 0:22:42.840 --> 0:22:45.040 couple of days, there are gonna be all kinds of 0:22:45.160 --> 0:22:48.159 things you probably don't fully understand unless you're a complete 0:22:48.200 --> 0:22:51.040 political nerd. And I don't either understand everything. So don't 0:22:51.040 --> 0:22:53.120 think you're alone then nor I get it and you don't. 0:22:53.440 --> 0:22:58.080 The philibuster, the talking philibuster, the amendment, these things get 0:22:58.160 --> 0:23:01.119 really really convoluted, and they get very very confusing, and 0:23:01.320 --> 0:23:05.080 normal people who like politics and pay attention even then 0:23:05.680 --> 0:23:08.879 us we don't understand all these things. So I had 0:23:08.880 --> 0:23:12.360 an opportunity to talk to Senator Eric Schmidt, senator from Missouri. 0:23:13.119 --> 0:23:15.320 Missouri has somehow become like the red es state in 0:23:15.359 --> 0:23:18.080 the United States of America. Eric Schmidt is one of 0:23:18.200 --> 0:23:21.320 like five senators that are worth a crap. He's awesome, 0:23:21.600 --> 0:23:24.040 absolutely awesome, and he always gives it to me straight. 0:23:24.680 --> 0:23:27.840 And I asked him, is this thing dead? Are we dead? 0:23:28.480 --> 0:23:31.640 And Eric would tell me and he said, no, it's 0:23:31.720 --> 0:23:35.480 not dead. We're going to It's going to be days. 0:23:36.040 --> 0:23:37.840 This is gonna be one of those things that happens 0:23:38.160 --> 0:23:41.520 or you know, Wednesday, Thursday, for maybe Friday of this week. 0:23:42.800 --> 0:23:47.320 There's a chance we get out of this with something 0:23:48.640 --> 0:23:51.280 everything we want, no, and we might get out of 0:23:51.320 --> 0:23:55.560 it with nothing. But they are out there today publicly 0:23:55.840 --> 0:24:00.520 pitching for it and pitching art and I mean, there's 0:24:00.560 --> 0:24:03.720 a reason Democrats are so united on their message to. 0:24:03.720 --> 0:24:06.640 Save acts, which I think violates the Nineteenth Amendment. When 0:24:06.680 --> 0:24:11.600 you tell American women you bring your driver's license and 0:24:11.680 --> 0:24:14.360 you bring your birth certificate and if they don't match, 0:24:14.440 --> 0:24:18.800 which they won't for sixty nine million American women, then 0:24:18.880 --> 0:24:21.119 you need to bring a passport. And half of the 0:24:21.240 --> 0:24:23.280 people don't have passports. 0:24:22.680 --> 0:24:24.640 You know, so oh yeah, just go out and buy 0:24:24.720 --> 0:24:27.920 an ID. That's a poll tax. They even reached out 0:24:27.920 --> 0:24:29.879 to Jim Clyburn. He even had to do the races. 0:24:30.119 --> 0:24:35.680 Nothing throwback to those laws that were passed after Reconstruction 0:24:35.840 --> 0:24:39.000 that made it impossible for after the America get elected. 0:24:39.560 --> 0:24:43.800 And if the Say It Pact becomes law, it will 0:24:44.000 --> 0:24:48.240 reduced dramatically the number of African Americans starting a serving 0:24:48.960 --> 0:24:50.560
