1 00:00:00,320 --> 00:00:03,760 Speaker 1: Your holster is way more important than you think it is. 2 00:00:04,280 --> 00:00:06,640 Speaker 1: It's just way more important than you think it is. 3 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:09,880 Speaker 1: What look, and I get that. The holsters not the 4 00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,560 Speaker 1: sexy part of carrying firearms. All right, You want to 5 00:00:13,560 --> 00:00:15,920 Speaker 1: talk about your weapon and your ammunition. You want to 6 00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:17,919 Speaker 1: talk about your safety training. You want to talk about 7 00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:20,080 Speaker 1: how you did at the range. Oh, look at my groups. 8 00:00:20,120 --> 00:00:21,959 Speaker 1: I was doing these failure drills today, and all that 9 00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:24,120 Speaker 1: stuff is really important. I mean, really really important. I'm 10 00:00:24,160 --> 00:00:27,560 Speaker 1: not discounting that, but I've known so many people who 11 00:00:27,600 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 1: do all those things. They take all the necessary steps 12 00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:34,199 Speaker 1: and then they carry with a holster they bought from 13 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:36,879 Speaker 1: a big box hunting store that was made a thousand 14 00:00:36,920 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 1: at a time. Please don't put your life in one 15 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 1: of those holsters. You need to trust Northwest Retention Systems 16 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:48,840 Speaker 1: because it's all custom made gear. It's the only thing 17 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 1: I carry around NW Retention dot Com. That's NW Retention 18 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,520 Speaker 1: dot Com used to promo co Jesse gets you ten 19 00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:21,200 Speaker 1: percent off. This is a Jesse Kelly show.

This is the Jesse Kelly Show. You can 23 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:40,679 Speaker 1: email to Jesse at Jesse Kelly show dot com. We 24 00:01:40,720 --> 00:01:45,760 Speaker 1: are gonna talk about I mean, I think I'm in love. 25 00:01:46,600 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 1: Don't worry. It's just like a fake love. Don't worry, 26 00:01:49,160 --> 00:01:53,800 Speaker 1: but I think I'm in love. The GOP has decided 27 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 1: to do the right thing once again, about about three 28 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:04,480 Speaker 1: weeks too late, and we have civil war in Europe. 29 00:02:05,080 --> 00:02:08,960 Speaker 1: I haven't been paying attention. We have civil wars in Europe. Okay, 30 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:13,960 Speaker 1: But first, and you know, I warn you ahead of 31 00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:19,080 Speaker 1: time about dark. Dark probably isn't the way to describe 32 00:02:19,160 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 1: today's story. Sad is probably a better way. It's just 33 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:29,440 Speaker 1: kind of sad. So you know, I will, at inappropriate 34 00:02:29,520 --> 00:02:34,919 Speaker 1: times inject humor into the story, which will make everybody uncomfortable. 35 00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:39,480 Speaker 1: I do that very well. But looking around right now, 36 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: it set aside the history for a moment. Looking around 37 00:02:41,800 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: right now, I've been trying to put into words what 38 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:51,359 Speaker 1: I've been feeling and what it seems like. I mean, 39 00:02:51,400 --> 00:02:54,560 Speaker 1: going off my emails and my voicemails and my social 40 00:02:54,560 --> 00:02:56,760 Speaker 1: media interaction and stuff like that. I've been trying to 41 00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,720 Speaker 1: put into words what you've been feeling. Because we appear 42 00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:03,040 Speaker 1: to be on pretty much the same wavelength out there. 43 00:03:05,680 --> 00:03:08,399 Speaker 1: It feels like I finally figured it out last night. 44 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:15,239 Speaker 1: It feels like sorrow. That's what it feels like. This, 45 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:21,160 Speaker 1: a real sorrow out there right now. I figured out 46 00:03:21,200 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 1: what it is, and I think I figured out why 47 00:03:23,280 --> 00:03:26,080 Speaker 1: it is. And let's walk through our little history's tale 48 00:03:26,120 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 1: and i'll tell you at the end. Let's go back 49 00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:34,440 Speaker 1: to China though, China nineteen thirty one. No, we're not 50 00:03:34,480 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: doing communist stuff today, although they'll have a little role. 51 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: But China nineteen thirty one. You see, China is an 52 00:03:44,400 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: interesting place that I've never been there, full disclosure, I've 53 00:03:47,360 --> 00:03:51,080 Speaker 1: never been there. I really really want to go there 54 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:55,160 Speaker 1: because of the vast amount of history in China. I mean, 55 00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:59,840 Speaker 1: there's just so much cool history there. However, I refuse 56 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,880 Speaker 1: to go because I don't want a single cent of 57 00:04:02,920 --> 00:04:05,480 Speaker 1: my money to go to communists, so I don't. I 58 00:04:05,520 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: won't go, but I want to go. Just No, it's 59 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:09,080 Speaker 1: one of those things I really want to do, but 60 00:04:09,120 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: I won't let myself do it. But China back in 61 00:04:14,280 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 1: nineteen thirty one was in this situation. They were very 62 00:04:19,560 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 1: very and are very but they were very, very agricultural, 63 00:04:24,120 --> 00:04:31,080 Speaker 1: big time China exists along rivers. There there are, there's 64 00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:34,599 Speaker 1: the yank Se River. Don't worry about remembering these names. 65 00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 1: It's not important. You can if you want. But the 66 00:04:36,880 --> 00:04:40,200 Speaker 1: yank See River, the Hawaii River, and the Yellow River. 67 00:04:40,360 --> 00:04:42,840 Speaker 1: And if I screwed up that Hawaii River name, it's 68 00:04:42,880 --> 00:04:46,080 Speaker 1: because my Mandarin is actually worse than my English. I 69 00:04:46,120 --> 00:04:50,719 Speaker 1: don't speak Mandarin well. But they they exist along rivers. 70 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:56,840 Speaker 1: They're agricultural, and that really is so much of the 71 00:04:56,920 --> 00:05:01,239 Speaker 1: history of mankind and where we are presently. You look 72 00:05:01,320 --> 00:05:06,039 Speaker 1: where civilizations end up setting themselves up. It's along some 73 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: kind of body of water, just the way it is. 74 00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,159 Speaker 1: The yank Ce River I just brought up in China 75 00:05:12,400 --> 00:05:17,279 Speaker 1: is actually the third longest river in the world by far, 76 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 1: by far the longest in Asia, and entirely contained within 77 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:27,359 Speaker 1: China and Chinese climate, which is really what we're going 78 00:05:27,400 --> 00:05:29,760 Speaker 1: to talk about a lot today. Don't worry, it's not 79 00:05:29,839 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 1: gonna be painful. I know I could see just I 80 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:36,919 Speaker 1: could see eyeballs glazing over Christmas intersection. Left's talking about climate. 81 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:42,039 Speaker 1: Don't worry. You know, you know me, But you remember 82 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:45,400 Speaker 1: Genghis Khan way back in the day, twelve hundred's back 83 00:05:45,400 --> 00:05:48,200 Speaker 1: when he was invading the Chinese and slapping them around, 84 00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:50,719 Speaker 1: and the Chinese did pretty well for themselves. I don't 85 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:52,160 Speaker 1: want to act like they just laid down for him. 86 00:05:52,200 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: But when he was down there, he famously struggled, not 87 00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:02,080 Speaker 1: necessarily against the Chinese walls or the Chinese troops there, 88 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:07,000 Speaker 1: or yes, some fierce battles there, he struggled mightily against 89 00:06:07,040 --> 00:06:13,279 Speaker 1: the Chinese climate. Climate is one of those funny things. 90 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: It's boring, it's nerdy, nobody wants to talk about it. 91 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: But in the same way we talk about, you know, 92 00:06:20,120 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: the history of water and the history of weather. Just 93 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:28,200 Speaker 1: in general, you can get in areas geographically and weatherwise. 94 00:06:29,000 --> 00:06:34,120 Speaker 1: They just defeat you. It defeated at certain points. It 95 00:06:34,240 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 1: defeated the Mongols. It just they couldn't go anymore. Alexander 96 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: the Great's a great example of this too. They kept 97 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 1: pushing east and pushing east and never losing a battle 98 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:49,200 Speaker 1: and conquering everybody, and finally the guys looked around and thought, 99 00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:53,080 Speaker 1: this environment sucks. We're dying of desigion. We can't do 100 00:06:53,160 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 1: this anymore. And I don't know what it is about China, because, 101 00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,880 Speaker 1: like I said, I'd never been there, but there's something 102 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 1: about the climate that just ruins people, ruins armies. It's 103 00:07:06,480 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: must just be very wet and difficult over there. Now, 104 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:16,800 Speaker 1: in nineteen twenty eight to nineteen thirty, here's what was happening. 105 00:07:17,840 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 1: You remember that agricultural society we just talked about thirty 106 00:07:21,040 --> 00:07:24,600 Speaker 1: seconds ago. They were going through what might be one 107 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:26,480 Speaker 1: of the worst things you can go through as an 108 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:32,520 Speaker 1: agricultural society, a drought. We're talking rice fields, wheat fields, 109 00:07:32,520 --> 00:07:35,600 Speaker 1: things like that. A drought is a big, big deal. 110 00:07:36,760 --> 00:07:40,760 Speaker 1: And people live along these rivers. The Yankcee River alone, 111 00:07:41,720 --> 00:07:45,360 Speaker 1: forty percent of the Chinese population lived along that river. 112 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 1: They're not spread out all over the country. They're living 113 00:07:47,680 --> 00:07:49,920 Speaker 1: by the waterway. You're going through a drought. It's screwing 114 00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 1: up the cops, the crops, the rivers are getting low, 115 00:07:54,520 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: it's it's not working. Well. It's a big deal, a 116 00:07:57,840 --> 00:08:01,280 Speaker 1: big deal. And remember when I talk about forty percent 117 00:08:01,280 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 1: of the population, it was also forty five percent of 118 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: the economy, which you will come into play later, right 119 00:08:07,000 --> 00:08:10,960 Speaker 1: along the Yanks River. Well, that was nineteen twenty eight 120 00:08:10,960 --> 00:08:17,200 Speaker 1: to nineteen thirty and then in nineteen thirty one, if 121 00:08:17,240 --> 00:08:22,360 Speaker 1: you were living in China. At that time, you would 122 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:26,880 Speaker 1: have thought the world had come to an end. And 123 00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,040 Speaker 1: when I tell you this story and the things these 124 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:34,200 Speaker 1: people went through, it it's difficult to take. It's difficult 125 00:08:34,240 --> 00:08:38,160 Speaker 1: to wrap your mind around how you would handle a 126 00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,400 Speaker 1: disaster like this and what would be going through your mind. 127 00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 1: Because after the drought twenty eight to thirty was the drought. Well, 128 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 1: during that drought time the mountains, we're getting a ton 129 00:08:51,920 --> 00:08:54,559 Speaker 1: of ice freezing up there, tons of it and tons 130 00:08:54,559 --> 00:08:56,000 Speaker 1: of it and tons of it, and it was adding 131 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,120 Speaker 1: up and adding up and adding up and adding up. 132 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:04,200 Speaker 1: And then the summer hits, summer nineteen thirty one, June hits, 133 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:09,760 Speaker 1: things get warm and that mountain of ice, I mean 134 00:09:09,840 --> 00:09:12,720 Speaker 1: quite literally, mountain of ice that was in the mountains 135 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 1: all starts melting and it all starts running down and 136 00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:23,240 Speaker 1: the rivers begin to flood. But remember these are people 137 00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:28,520 Speaker 1: who live along a very unpredictable river. They're used to flooding. 138 00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 1: They know how to get around. Some flooding here, some 139 00:09:32,440 --> 00:09:34,880 Speaker 1: flooding there. Get up the seed here so we have 140 00:09:35,000 --> 00:09:37,199 Speaker 1: seed for next year. Make sure we have this kind 141 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: of protection. They have dikes all over the place. They 142 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:46,400 Speaker 1: have taken many, many, many of the proper precautions, but 143 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:53,760 Speaker 1: nobody was ready for what was coming, because on top 144 00:09:53,880 --> 00:10:00,040 Speaker 1: of all the ice melting, the drought ends, and a 145 00:10:00,200 --> 00:10:04,839 Speaker 1: drought ends, Well, how do you want me to put this? 146 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:14,000 Speaker 1: Seven different cyclone events in one month? The sky while 147 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:19,800 Speaker 1: the mountains are pouring water into these rivers, the skies 148 00:10:20,120 --> 00:10:25,440 Speaker 1: open and honestly, picture the Noah's Ark store. You all 149 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:29,080 Speaker 1: know that's us. This is a small version of what 150 00:10:29,200 --> 00:10:32,079 Speaker 1: I assume that must have looked like. I will continue 151 00:10:32,240 --> 00:10:34,839 Speaker 1: on in just a moment, and then we're going to 152 00:10:34,920 --> 00:10:40,160 Speaker 1: talk about banning Trump supporters from the military. Hang on, 153 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:57,800 Speaker 1: Jesse Kelly. Sit down last night for dinner, and as 154 00:10:57,840 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 1: I do every night now, I got my glass of 155 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:01,839 Speaker 1: water sitting there, or a beer, depending on whether it's 156 00:11:01,880 --> 00:11:05,920 Speaker 1: the weekend or not, and a couple of super beats 157 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:09,319 Speaker 1: sitting by my drink every single night. Finally, my youngest 158 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 1: son asks, what are these things you're taking every single night? 159 00:11:13,679 --> 00:11:18,079 Speaker 1: And I said, well, they're super beats. Son. He said why, 160 00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,000 Speaker 1: I said, well, because i'd like to meet the kids 161 00:11:21,000 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 1: you're going to have one day. You man, a real 162 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,960 Speaker 1: man has to take care of his heart. That's why 163 00:11:27,960 --> 00:11:30,320 Speaker 1: I take them. Yeah. I like the flavor, I love 164 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 1: the company, I love the people. They're great. It's all good. 165 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: I love that they're all natural, you know. I love 166 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: all that.

We're gonna talk 172 00:12:15,440 --> 00:12:20,480 Speaker 1: about it a little later on. Back to China nineteen 173 00:12:20,559 --> 00:12:26,719 Speaker 1: thirty one. The river's flowing, the river's rising because of 174 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:30,440 Speaker 1: the mountain run off. People were handling it. They have 175 00:12:30,679 --> 00:12:36,640 Speaker 1: dikes there. Then the skies open up, and now we 176 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,120 Speaker 1: have to take a brief step away for a moment 177 00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: and discuss the political situation in China at the time. 178 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,000 Speaker 1: They were in the middle of a civil war. I'm 179 00:12:48,040 --> 00:12:51,440 Speaker 1: not even kidding, in the middle of a civil war. 180 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:55,800 Speaker 1: And this was when the world changed and it really 181 00:12:55,840 --> 00:12:59,560 Speaker 1: affected our world today. To hang on for a second, 182 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:03,520 Speaker 1: if you're on aware of it. There were two sides 183 00:13:03,559 --> 00:13:07,400 Speaker 1: in this civil war. There were the Chinese nationalists led 184 00:13:07,440 --> 00:13:11,520 Speaker 1: by a man named Chang Kai Shek. And then there 185 00:13:11,520 --> 00:13:15,200 Speaker 1: were the communists, you know, the ones that eventually won 186 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 1: the war with Mao changed the course of human history. 187 00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:23,640 Speaker 1: The ones who are currently eating our launch, that's them. Well, 188 00:13:24,120 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: as of this point in time, there's there's no clear winner, 189 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,680 Speaker 1: there's no clear front runner. There's just a Chinese civil war. 190 00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:34,600 Speaker 1: They're trying to figure out the direction of the nation, 191 00:13:34,960 --> 00:13:37,840 Speaker 1: trying to figure out who's even running things at the time. 192 00:13:38,880 --> 00:13:41,520 Speaker 1: And why does that come into play? Well, remember I 193 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 1: said they had dikes. I mean, these people had lived 194 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 1: in this area for a long long time. They dang 195 00:13:46,400 --> 00:13:49,280 Speaker 1: well knew the river's flood. The rains come sometimes the 196 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,559 Speaker 1: mountain runoff is not new, So you have dikes. Well, 197 00:13:54,360 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 1: when you don't have a competent system, when you don't 198 00:13:58,360 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 1: have a competent, consistent government system, sometimes sometimes the bad 199 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:12,199 Speaker 1: stuff gets a whole lot worse because of cans that 200 00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:18,360 Speaker 1: get kicked down the road. Here's how rivers work. Naturally. 201 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:26,200 Speaker 1: Hang with me a second. A natural river flows, but 202 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:32,120 Speaker 1: eventually because of the silt build up in various areas. 203 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:34,600 Speaker 1: You know, a river is carrying more than just water, 204 00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,600 Speaker 1: It's carrying others. Stop to dirt. Let's just got dirt. 205 00:14:38,280 --> 00:14:42,160 Speaker 1: It's carrying dirt. The dirt is going to, because of 206 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:45,880 Speaker 1: the flow of the river slowly build up on this 207 00:14:46,000 --> 00:14:48,840 Speaker 1: bank or build up in this area. And what that's 208 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:53,000 Speaker 1: going to do over time is force the river to 209 00:14:53,200 --> 00:14:58,120 Speaker 1: take alternate routes, to start slowly carving an alternate route out. 210 00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:03,960 Speaker 1: Makes sense so far with Well, when you build dikes, 211 00:15:05,200 --> 00:15:07,520 Speaker 1: when you when you try to control the flow of 212 00:15:07,520 --> 00:15:11,440 Speaker 1: that river, what you do is you hold the river 213 00:15:11,640 --> 00:15:15,720 Speaker 1: in place. You're not letting it naturally flow because you 214 00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:19,840 Speaker 1: us mankind, we manipulate the flow of rivers for our 215 00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:23,960 Speaker 1: own purposes, as we should. Good for us. It's really cool. However, 216 00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:30,360 Speaker 1: there's something about dikes and rivers. Remember, the river's still 217 00:15:30,440 --> 00:15:36,120 Speaker 1: carrying stuff. You're holding it in place and holding it 218 00:15:36,200 --> 00:15:40,640 Speaker 1: in place and holding it in place, and you're getting 219 00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:46,360 Speaker 1: that build up below the river. The rivers not allowed 220 00:15:46,400 --> 00:15:49,640 Speaker 1: to move, but the silt is still building at the bottom. 221 00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:51,800 Speaker 1: Are you started to see where I'm going with this. 222 00:15:52,000 --> 00:15:57,000 Speaker 1: You must absolutely must do one of two things or both. 223 00:15:57,560 --> 00:16:00,760 Speaker 1: You must clean out the build up so the river 224 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: can continue to flow that way, or you must raise 225 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:15,080 Speaker 1: the dikes. When you have a dysfunctional, divided system. Basics 226 00:16:15,200 --> 00:16:19,480 Speaker 1: like that get overlooked while the powers that be on 227 00:16:19,480 --> 00:16:21,800 Speaker 1: one side and the powers that be on the other 228 00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:27,080 Speaker 1: side are squabbling for a seat at the throne. Really, 229 00:16:27,160 --> 00:16:33,680 Speaker 1: really critical things like dikes and riverbed maintenance get really overlooked, 230 00:16:34,560 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 1: And when they get overlooked, you get the living hell 231 00:16:38,800 --> 00:16:44,000 Speaker 1: we are about to walk into. You see, this was 232 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:50,840 Speaker 1: worse than anything they'd seen before, and eventually a dike breaks, 233 00:16:52,720 --> 00:16:56,600 Speaker 1: and Chris said, Jonestown, I think you mean Johnstown. I 234 00:16:56,600 --> 00:16:58,840 Speaker 1: think that was Johnstown, Pennsylvania. Here, Chris asked if this 235 00:16:58,920 --> 00:17:02,120 Speaker 1: was Jonestown or John's Town, Pennsylvania. Bad Do you remember 236 00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:03,840 Speaker 1: that Dutch story that horrible flood. I think it was 237 00:17:03,920 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 1: nineteen twenty seven in Johnstown. I may have that wrong, 238 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:10,000 Speaker 1: but Chris, this makes Johnstown look like a nice trip 239 00:17:10,040 --> 00:17:15,280 Speaker 1: to the convenience store. Let's put it to you this way. 240 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:19,800 Speaker 1: A dike broke, and as soon as one breaks, when 241 00:17:19,800 --> 00:17:24,120 Speaker 1: you're dealing with this volume of water, you simply now 242 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:28,320 Speaker 1: have created a domino effect. Then another dike, then another dike, 243 00:17:28,480 --> 00:17:32,520 Speaker 1: then another dike. People are building. Remember these are little 244 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:36,200 Speaker 1: one story homes all along the river, many of them 245 00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 1: obviously elevated because they're used to floods. They're used to 246 00:17:39,520 --> 00:17:41,760 Speaker 1: in the river. They're used to rice paddies where they 247 00:17:41,840 --> 00:17:45,560 Speaker 1: grow it underwater. However, there's elevated, and then there's elevated. 248 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:52,679 Speaker 1: Now the river has exploded. The water has exploded, and 249 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:58,160 Speaker 1: it's so fast and so uncontrollable. Chris just asked about Johnstown. 250 00:17:58,560 --> 00:18:00,879 Speaker 1: Let me put it to you this way. One hundred 251 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:05,680 Speaker 1: and fifty thousand people died almost right away here alone, 252 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:09,280 Speaker 1: and that's barely a fraction of how many are about 253 00:18:09,320 --> 00:18:13,199 Speaker 1: to die. This could easily be the worst disaster and 254 00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:16,520 Speaker 1: the history of mankind, and most people don't even know 255 00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:23,280 Speaker 1: about it. The homes boom gone, entire villages gone. People 256 00:18:23,400 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 1: are now clamoring into the little side pans, the little 257 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:31,680 Speaker 1: flat bottom boats. They're trying to build their own life rafts. 258 00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:35,120 Speaker 1: And these aren't a bunch of navy seals out here. 259 00:18:35,119 --> 00:18:39,960 Speaker 1: These are normal people with families, babies, children, old people. 260 00:18:41,520 --> 00:18:45,880 Speaker 1: They're trying to Also, while they're trying to save themselves, 261 00:18:46,080 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 1: they're trying to save the crop, bring in as much 262 00:18:49,560 --> 00:18:52,719 Speaker 1: food as possible so they don't starve, save the seed 263 00:18:52,880 --> 00:18:55,360 Speaker 1: for next year's crops so they don't start trying to 264 00:18:55,400 --> 00:18:58,800 Speaker 1: save the animals. They made their living so much, they're 265 00:18:58,840 --> 00:19:05,520 Speaker 1: living on water bufferlaw. They're trying to save themselves. Oh 266 00:19:05,640 --> 00:19:08,680 Speaker 1: and did I mention you know, we're talking about crops 267 00:19:08,720 --> 00:19:10,840 Speaker 1: and lives and things like that, because this is going 268 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:13,160 Speaker 1: to come back into play here in a moment. This 269 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 1: is remember, forty five percent of their economy. This is 270 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:22,960 Speaker 1: how their nation functions, and now the water is blowing 271 00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:27,480 Speaker 1: them out of there. There's a story about the famous 272 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:30,840 Speaker 1: US aviator, the Lindberg. The Lindburg dude and his wife 273 00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:33,800 Speaker 1: they went over they were over there at the time. 274 00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:35,840 Speaker 1: I'm not going to go into it, but they took 275 00:19:35,880 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 1: a flight over and they describe what it was like. 276 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 1: You're flying over rivers, then you're flying over these lakes. 277 00:19:42,880 --> 00:19:45,160 Speaker 1: They look like there are lakes all of a sudden everywhere, 278 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:48,119 Speaker 1: and then when you got far enough down, it was 279 00:19:48,200 --> 00:19:51,680 Speaker 1: like you hit the ocean, only it wasn't the ocean. 280 00:19:52,440 --> 00:19:56,959 Speaker 1: An area the size of New York, New Jersey and 281 00:19:57,119 --> 00:20:04,480 Speaker 1: Massachusetts combined is now all underwater. And this is not 282 00:20:04,600 --> 00:20:08,879 Speaker 1: the era where you're going to be flying helicopters out 283 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:14,000 Speaker 1: there where China even could where they could even afford it. 284 00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:20,640 Speaker 1: Picture this moment entire villages in the middle of an ocean, 285 00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 1: albeit a shallow ocean. Now in the middle of an ocean, 286 00:20:25,400 --> 00:20:30,320 Speaker 1: living on rafts, living on boats, fighting to survive, and 287 00:20:31,440 --> 00:20:39,480 Speaker 1: there's no rescue coming. There's no rescue even available. You 288 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:42,440 Speaker 1: are It's the best back in discus. Have you seen 289 00:20:42,480 --> 00:20:45,040 Speaker 1: the movie water World?

But where the world just became covered in water. 293 00:20:54,400 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 1: That's what these people were now living in. You to night, 294 00:21:00,359 --> 00:21:05,600 Speaker 1: you go home, you lay down dinner, crash out for 295 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 1: the evening.

And the 332 00:23:55,960 --> 00:24:00,320 Speaker 1: waters are so shallow in so many places because now 333 00:24:00,400 --> 00:24:04,280 Speaker 1: you have lakes and standing water where there was previously nothing. 334 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:08,960 Speaker 1: You can't bring large boats in there because they're too deep. 335 00:24:09,040 --> 00:24:11,919 Speaker 1: They can't get there. So you can't even bring large 336 00:24:12,000 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 1: watercraft to go pick up these people or even drop 337 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:19,920 Speaker 1: off medical supplies or food, and they start dying. The 338 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 1: ones who did that, we're not even talking about one 339 00:24:21,840 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 1: hundred and fifty thousand who drowned right away. They're living 340 00:24:27,119 --> 00:24:32,360 Speaker 1: on rafts and they're running out of food. They're catching 341 00:24:32,400 --> 00:24:37,240 Speaker 1: what fish they can catch, and they're eating it, but 342 00:24:37,320 --> 00:24:45,600 Speaker 1: they're catching something else too. You see, waters really great, 343 00:24:46,720 --> 00:24:49,679 Speaker 1: but like most really great things, it comes with some danger. 344 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:56,679 Speaker 1: Water brings bugs, bugs bring disease. Now you're stuck on 345 00:24:56,760 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 1: the water. Now you're drinking bad water because think about 346 00:25:01,720 --> 00:25:04,240 Speaker 1: what's going on around you. You're beginning to band together 347 00:25:04,320 --> 00:25:06,840 Speaker 1: as much as humanly possible. You know, you would join 348 00:25:07,000 --> 00:25:12,840 Speaker 1: boat to pull our resources type thing. Everybody's using the 349 00:25:12,880 --> 00:25:18,360 Speaker 1: water on top of the bacteria already naturally in standing 350 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:22,200 Speaker 1: water or water that's not fast flowing at all. Now 351 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:26,679 Speaker 1: you have a dysentery problem that is huge, which is 352 00:25:26,760 --> 00:25:29,639 Speaker 1: dehydrating people more. I am going to do you the 353 00:25:29,680 --> 00:25:32,280 Speaker 1: favor of not elaborating on dysentery. Maybe I'll tell you 354 00:25:32,320 --> 00:25:34,679 Speaker 1: my dysentery story later on today when I got it 355 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:39,200 Speaker 1: not a good time. On top of that, you have 356 00:25:39,760 --> 00:25:44,960 Speaker 1: malaria breaking out. People aren't nourished enough to have their 357 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:49,879 Speaker 1: immune systems fight off disease. You and I, as Americans, 358 00:25:50,160 --> 00:25:53,800 Speaker 1: do not appreciate the fact we constantly although we eat 359 00:25:53,840 --> 00:25:56,280 Speaker 1: poorly and we're too fat. That's just the nature of 360 00:25:56,440 --> 00:26:00,920 Speaker 1: how we are now. We don't have a neutralian deficit. 361 00:26:03,000 --> 00:26:05,760 Speaker 1: You have very likely never lived and I have never 362 00:26:05,800 --> 00:26:09,399 Speaker 1: lived at a time where I didn't have enough food 363 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,560 Speaker 1: to have my body able to fight off disease. Your 364 00:26:12,560 --> 00:26:15,080 Speaker 1: body's fighting off disease at all times. Your body's fighting 365 00:26:15,080 --> 00:26:18,239 Speaker 1: off disease right now, but you have the nutrients, you 366 00:26:18,240 --> 00:26:22,119 Speaker 1: have the strength to do it. People who are dying 367 00:26:22,160 --> 00:26:26,119 Speaker 1: of starvation quickly begin dying of disease because their body 368 00:26:26,160 --> 00:26:28,520 Speaker 1: doesn't have the energy to fight it off. There's a 369 00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:34,679 Speaker 1: cholera outbreak. Malaria starts tearing through these people, and in 370 00:26:34,840 --> 00:26:39,159 Speaker 1: their desperation, I mean, it gets so much worse, and 371 00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:43,119 Speaker 1: their desperation, they start eating the seed they saved for 372 00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,120 Speaker 1: next year's crops. So now you're going to starve next 373 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 1: year if you don't starve this year. They start using 374 00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 1: their plows for fire. These are not people who can 375 00:26:53,920 --> 00:26:57,479 Speaker 1: run down to Walmart and buy a new one. Remember 376 00:26:57,480 --> 00:27:00,679 Speaker 1: I said they used their water buffalo. They start eating 377 00:27:00,720 --> 00:27:05,159 Speaker 1: them too. But here's the problem. Soon the seed is 378 00:27:05,200 --> 00:27:10,240 Speaker 1: gone and the water buffalo is gone, and you have 379 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:16,160 Speaker 1: entire families starving, and people start looking to the kids. 380 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:26,560 Speaker 1: People start getting rid of their own children, sometimes selling 381 00:27:27,000 --> 00:27:33,360 Speaker 1: their own children to other people for food. You think 382 00:27:33,400 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 1: you've seen desperation, but wait, it actually gets worse. Refugees 383 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:45,360 Speaker 1: then poured into some of the major Chinese cities like Wuhan. 384 00:27:45,560 --> 00:27:48,840 Speaker 1: Perhaps you've heard of it, they pour into Wuhan. Well. 385 00:27:48,840 --> 00:27:54,400 Speaker 1: Eventually Wuhan understandably says, up, whoa, we don't We can't 386 00:27:54,440 --> 00:27:57,239 Speaker 1: hold any more people here. They have to set up 387 00:27:57,280 --> 00:28:01,199 Speaker 1: troops around Wuhan to keep more refuge us out. The 388 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:05,080 Speaker 1: refugees finally get to Wuhan, run into some Chinese troops. No, 389 00:28:05,240 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 1: they can't do anything, so they head to the hills, 390 00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:11,880 Speaker 1: to the mountains around Wuhan and begin setting up refugee camps. 391 00:28:12,119 --> 00:28:14,960 Speaker 1: And they say the conditions in the camps were worse 392 00:28:15,040 --> 00:28:22,320 Speaker 1: than being out on the water, just the disease, the waste, 393 00:28:22,520 --> 00:28:25,359 Speaker 1: that it was the worst scene I've ever heard in 394 00:28:25,440 --> 00:28:29,560 Speaker 1: my life. But wait, it gets worse. And that's not 395 00:28:29,600 --> 00:28:32,600 Speaker 1: the last time I'm going to say that. Nan King 396 00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:35,600 Speaker 1: or Nanjing depending on you know, potentially debanding on how 397 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:37,680 Speaker 1: you want to pronounce it. This is this is about 398 00:28:37,720 --> 00:28:40,080 Speaker 1: six years before that, the Rape of Nankings. So we're 399 00:28:40,120 --> 00:28:43,240 Speaker 1: before that, right. The refugees poured in Nanking. It was 400 00:28:43,280 --> 00:28:46,240 Speaker 1: the capital of China at the time, So you have 401 00:28:46,280 --> 00:28:50,440 Speaker 1: all these refugees coming in Nanking and then boom Nan 402 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 1: King floods and even though it was a major city, 403 00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:59,719 Speaker 1: most of the city was single story buildings. Eight hundred 404 00:28:59,720 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 1: thou thousand people had filled up Nan King only to 405 00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:07,760 Speaker 1: watch Nan King flood. Imagine escaping all that, finally getting 406 00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 1: to the promised land and having the promised land flood 407 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:14,680 Speaker 1: on you. Again, these people thought the world was ending. 408 00:29:15,400 --> 00:29:20,640 Speaker 1: Oh but wait, there's more. Then Japan who had this. 409 00:29:20,800 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 1: You know they have this never ending rivalry with China. 410 00:29:23,920 --> 00:29:28,640 Speaker 1: Japan invades Manchuria. This is the beginning of that. Wow, 411 00:29:28,680 --> 00:29:34,640 Speaker 1: this is going on. Then wait, there's more. Remember I 412 00:29:34,640 --> 00:29:38,080 Speaker 1: said forty five percent of the economy was there. Well, 413 00:29:38,120 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 1: forty five percent of your economy goes bye bye. Your 414 00:29:41,640 --> 00:29:50,640 Speaker 1: economy goes bye by the bond market collapses in China. 415 00:29:50,880 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 1: The floods started in June. This is the heartbreaking part 416 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,440 Speaker 1: of it. As I wrapped this up, the flood started 417 00:29:57,480 --> 00:30:03,360 Speaker 1: in June because of a broken, divided, corrupt system. There 418 00:30:03,440 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 1: wasn't even a government response until August. And you know 419 00:30:08,600 --> 00:30:12,720 Speaker 1: what the response was. Of course, they formed a commission, right, 420 00:30:14,160 --> 00:30:16,560 Speaker 1: but this commission, you can form all the commissions in 421 00:30:16,560 --> 00:30:20,160 Speaker 1: the world. They don't have any money because their economy 422 00:30:20,280 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 1: is destroyed. Again, you and I have never known that yet, 423 00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:27,240 Speaker 1: what it's like to not have money. Commission here commission 424 00:30:27,280 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 1: there through a couple of billion at this couple billion 425 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:33,560 Speaker 1: at that. That's the American life. That is not not 426 00:30:34,920 --> 00:30:39,960 Speaker 1: how other people around the world exist. And then once 427 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:44,520 Speaker 1: you have the government commission, what are they focus on? Well, 428 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:49,120 Speaker 1: they focus on everything a corrupt system usually focuses on. 429 00:30:51,520 --> 00:30:57,440 Speaker 1: They focused on their accomplishments, not a gigantic effort to 430 00:30:57,480 --> 00:31:02,120 Speaker 1: save the people, not at all. Not we have to 431 00:31:02,160 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 1: do this, we have to do that. These people are dying. 432 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,360 Speaker 1: These people need to do this, These people need to 433 00:31:06,360 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 1: do that. They handed out some food, handed out some 434 00:31:10,040 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 1: medical supplies. And then one of the biggest complaints about 435 00:31:13,960 --> 00:31:17,120 Speaker 1: that commission was they spent the rest of their time 436 00:31:17,680 --> 00:31:22,000 Speaker 1: telling everybody else all the great things they done instead 437 00:31:22,000 --> 00:31:26,400 Speaker 1: of doing more great things. Because that's what a corrupt 438 00:31:26,400 --> 00:31:31,440 Speaker 1: system does. A corrupt system fails, then gets together and 439 00:31:31,800 --> 00:31:35,520 Speaker 1: makes everything worse and then brags about how it saved 440 00:31:35,600 --> 00:31:39,240 Speaker 1: everyone while people are dying. That's what happens in a 441 00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:43,600 Speaker 1: corrupt system. And as I was thinking about this whole 442 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 1: story last night, and I'm thinking, and I'm going through 443 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:51,120 Speaker 1: everything on it. Man, if you look at just go 444 00:31:51,200 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 1: look it up, if you're if you're interested in it, 445 00:31:53,080 --> 00:31:56,280 Speaker 1: it's awful. They say. By the end, they estimate two 446 00:31:56,480 --> 00:32:01,640 Speaker 1: to three to four million people. You and I don't 447 00:32:01,640 --> 00:32:05,360 Speaker 1: even know a disaster like that. Four million people dead 448 00:32:05,600 --> 00:32:10,640 Speaker 1: gone when you counting the disease and everything else. And 449 00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:14,000 Speaker 1: I'm thinking about it, and it really it hit me. 450 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:19,280 Speaker 1: It hit me. Why why there's so much sorrow in America? 451 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:27,680 Speaker 1: Now I'll explain why in a second. On the Jordan 452 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:30,560 Speaker 1: Harbinger Show, you'll hear amazing stories from people that have 453 00:32:30,680 --> 00:32:34,240 Speaker 1: lived them, from spies to CEOs, even an undercover agent 454 00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:37,600 Speaker 1: who infiltrated the Gambino crime family.
