<v Speaker 2>hate and death threats to Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com.

<v Speaker 2>This guy actually said, Hey, Jesse, can you read the

0:01:50.240 --> 0:01:54.000
<v Speaker 2>Medal of Honor citation for a Raymond Zusman. I think

0:01:54.000 --> 0:01:56.320
<v Speaker 2>it's amazing how he was able to do so much

0:01:56.400 --> 0:02:01.120
<v Speaker 2>with very little ammunition and men much thanks and God

0:02:01.200 --> 0:02:06.840
<v Speaker 2>bless So what did mister Zusman do? Raymond Zussman of Hamtrack, Michigan,

0:02:07.640 --> 0:02:09.639
<v Speaker 2>let's find out? Shall ridy hey.

0:02:11.120 --> 0:02:14.440
<v Speaker 3>Honoring those who went above and beyond its Medal of

0:02:14.520 --> 0:02:22.280
<v Speaker 3>Honor Monday.

0:02:22.400 --> 0:02:26.160
<v Speaker 2>On the twelfth of September nineteen forty four, Second Lieutenant

0:02:26.280 --> 0:02:29.480
<v Speaker 2>Zusman was in command of two tanks operating with an

0:02:29.520 --> 0:02:33.680
<v Speaker 2>infantry company in the attack on enemy forces occupying the

0:02:33.680 --> 0:02:38.600
<v Speaker 2>town of noroy Leburg, France, at seven o'clock PM. His

0:02:38.760 --> 0:02:43.600
<v Speaker 2>command tank bogged down. Throughout the ensuing action, armed with

0:02:43.680 --> 0:02:48.440
<v Speaker 2>only a carbine, he reconnoitered alone on foot, far in

0:02:48.520 --> 0:02:52.519
<v Speaker 2>advance of his remaining tank in the infantry, returning only

0:02:52.560 --> 0:02:56.280
<v Speaker 2>from time to time to designate targets. He directed the

0:02:56.320 --> 0:02:59.440
<v Speaker 2>action of the tank and turned over to the infantry

0:02:59.440 --> 0:03:03.960
<v Speaker 2>the numerous German soldiers he had caused to surrender. He

0:03:04.040 --> 0:03:07.080
<v Speaker 2>located a roadblock and directed his tanks to destroy it.

0:03:07.840 --> 0:03:12.200
<v Speaker 2>Fully exposed to fire from enemy positions only fifty yards distant,

0:03:12.520 --> 0:03:16.400
<v Speaker 2>he stood by his tank directing its fire. Three Germans

0:03:16.400 --> 0:03:20.480
<v Speaker 2>were killed and eight surrendered. Again, he walked before his tank,

0:03:20.720 --> 0:03:24.520
<v Speaker 2>leading it against an enemy held group of houses machine

0:03:24.520 --> 0:03:27.960
<v Speaker 2>gun and small arms fire, kicking up dust at his feet.

0:03:28.639 --> 0:03:32.120
<v Speaker 2>The tank fire broke the resistance in twenty enemies surrendered.

0:03:33.160 --> 0:03:37.760
<v Speaker 2>Going forward again alone, he passed an enemy occupied house,

0:03:38.080 --> 0:03:40.960
<v Speaker 2>from which Germans fired on him and threw grenades in

0:03:41.040 --> 0:03:44.960
<v Speaker 2>his path. After a brief firefight, he signaled his tank

0:03:45.040 --> 0:03:48.160
<v Speaker 2>to come up and fire on the house. Eleven German

0:03:48.240 --> 0:03:53.320
<v Speaker 2>soldiers were killed and fifteen surrendered. Going on alone. He

0:03:53.400 --> 0:03:56.640
<v Speaker 2>disappeared around a street corner. The fire of his car

0:03:56.720 --> 0:03:59.880
<v Speaker 2>being could be heard, and in a few minutes he reappeared,

0:04:00.240 --> 0:04:05.400
<v Speaker 2>driving thirty prisoners before him. Under Second Lieutenant Zusman's heroic

0:04:05.400 --> 0:04:10.840
<v Speaker 2>and inspiring leadership, eighteen enemy soldiers were killed and ninety

0:04:11.080 --> 0:04:17.880
<v Speaker 2>two captured. Not a bad day, huh, Not a bad day. Now,

0:04:18.839 --> 0:04:21.920
<v Speaker 2>let's get back to the task at hand. I don't

0:04:21.960 --> 0:04:25.560
<v Speaker 2>want to live in this kind of country, political assassinations

0:04:25.600 --> 0:04:28.760
<v Speaker 2>and violence all the time. I want the communists to stop.

0:04:29.920 --> 0:04:34.600
<v Speaker 2>I want there to be peace. But how do we

0:04:34.720 --> 0:04:38.040
<v Speaker 2>get that? How do we get that? Well, let me

0:04:38.080 --> 0:04:42.200
<v Speaker 2>use a couple examples here. You remember our Rhodesian history segment,

0:04:42.200 --> 0:04:46.359
<v Speaker 2>don't forget histories. Coming back May fourth our Rhodesian history segment,

0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:52.160
<v Speaker 2>and we talked about how these communist groups were pouring

0:04:52.200 --> 0:04:57.120
<v Speaker 2>into Rhodesia from the surrounding countries. Okay, you can arrest them,

0:04:57.160 --> 0:04:58.880
<v Speaker 2>you can go out and kill them, and they did,

0:04:59.560 --> 0:05:01.880
<v Speaker 2>but they just kept coming, and they just kept coming

0:05:01.640 --> 0:05:05.560
<v Speaker 2>like they were endless amounts of them. What do you do?

0:05:06.680 --> 0:05:10.040
<v Speaker 2>Why were they still coming? That's the best question. Why

0:05:10.120 --> 0:05:17.159
<v Speaker 2>so many coming? Because they were funded and trained by

0:05:17.360 --> 0:05:23.320
<v Speaker 2>large nation states like China in the Soviet Union nation

0:05:23.640 --> 0:05:28.560
<v Speaker 2>states were funding and training all these communists. So the

0:05:28.640 --> 0:05:31.760
<v Speaker 2>Rhodesians are killing them as fast as they can kill them,

0:05:32.040 --> 0:05:37.040
<v Speaker 2>but there seems to be an inexhaustible supply of them. Okay,

0:05:37.520 --> 0:05:43.120
<v Speaker 2>pause on that for a moment. Let's talk about crime

0:05:43.600 --> 0:05:47.520
<v Speaker 2>drug dealing. If you will, picture a major American city.

0:05:48.320 --> 0:05:51.440
<v Speaker 2>There's some gang banger on the block and he's selling crack.

0:05:51.600 --> 0:05:54.440
<v Speaker 2>Not ideal, I think you would agree, probably not great.

0:05:55.200 --> 0:06:00.320
<v Speaker 2>Now you want that to stop, okay, But you go

0:06:00.360 --> 0:06:03.120
<v Speaker 2>put handcuffs on that drug dealer and you throw them

0:06:03.160 --> 0:06:06.360
<v Speaker 2>in jail. And the next day there's a different guy

0:06:06.440 --> 0:06:08.440
<v Speaker 2>standing on the street corner with a bag of crack

0:06:08.520 --> 0:06:10.800
<v Speaker 2>selling it, and you can arrest that guy and throw

0:06:10.839 --> 0:06:12.640
<v Speaker 2>him in jail. But then the next day there's another

0:06:12.680 --> 0:06:14.560
<v Speaker 2>guy in the street corner with the bag of cracks

0:06:14.560 --> 0:06:20.799
<v Speaker 2>selling it. What's going on here? Well, that guy standing

0:06:20.839 --> 0:06:23.320
<v Speaker 2>on the street corner with a bag of crack, he

0:06:23.360 --> 0:06:27.120
<v Speaker 2>doesn't have any actual power. Really, maybe he has a gun.

0:06:27.440 --> 0:06:30.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure he's violent, probably stupid, but why see actually

0:06:31.000 --> 0:06:35.400
<v Speaker 2>there he's there because in all likelihood, his gang of

0:06:35.440 --> 0:06:39.560
<v Speaker 2>hoodlums who live on that block, they were hired by

0:06:39.680 --> 0:06:44.400
<v Speaker 2>a middle management type in a large criminal organization, could

0:06:44.400 --> 0:06:48.719
<v Speaker 2>be the Italian mafia cartel, mixture of the two. You

0:06:48.800 --> 0:06:52.160
<v Speaker 2>see some middle manager based here in America. He wants

0:06:52.200 --> 0:06:54.120
<v Speaker 2>to move a lot more crack and make a lot

0:06:54.160 --> 0:06:56.719
<v Speaker 2>more money through the streets of let's call it Chicago.

0:06:57.200 --> 0:06:59.840
<v Speaker 2>So he goes and finds a bunch of young, stupid

0:07:00.000 --> 0:07:02.720
<v Speaker 2>idiots and hands them bags of crack and says, I'll

0:07:02.720 --> 0:07:05.800
<v Speaker 2>give you a little cut, go sell my crack. Okay,

0:07:05.839 --> 0:07:08.400
<v Speaker 2>But even then, if you if you travel all the

0:07:08.440 --> 0:07:10.880
<v Speaker 2>way up the chain to the middle management guy, what

0:07:10.960 --> 0:07:13.880
<v Speaker 2>if you just throw handcuffs on him and send him, well,

0:07:13.920 --> 0:07:17.520
<v Speaker 2>then you have to climb further up the chain until

0:07:17.600 --> 0:07:21.440
<v Speaker 2>you get to the man or the men who have

0:07:21.640 --> 0:07:25.280
<v Speaker 2>the plan, and they're hiring the right people to carry

0:07:25.320 --> 0:07:29.960
<v Speaker 2>out the plan. I'm mister crime lord, and my plan

0:07:30.160 --> 0:07:33.240
<v Speaker 2>is to make a lot of money. How am I

0:07:33.320 --> 0:07:36.800
<v Speaker 2>going to make money? I'm gonna make crack. I'm gonna

0:07:36.840 --> 0:07:39.960
<v Speaker 2>make tons and tons of crack, and then I'm gonna

0:07:40.040 --> 0:07:44.920
<v Speaker 2>hire a bunch of violent, scummy losers to distribute my

0:07:45.160 --> 0:07:49.520
<v Speaker 2>said crack, and eventually enough money will be flowing up

0:07:49.560 --> 0:07:53.160
<v Speaker 2>into my coffers. That I'll be flying private jets and

0:07:53.200 --> 0:07:57.480
<v Speaker 2>living in mansions all over the world. If you really

0:07:57.560 --> 0:08:00.400
<v Speaker 2>want to stop the guy on the street corner with

0:08:00.480 --> 0:08:03.680
<v Speaker 2>a bag of crack in his pocket, you don't just

0:08:03.840 --> 0:08:08.720
<v Speaker 2>throw him in jail. You must go to the institutions

0:08:08.880 --> 0:08:16.760
<v Speaker 2>who create people like him. You must go after the institutions.

0:08:17.840 --> 0:08:21.200
<v Speaker 2>The poor Rhodesians were never going to win the Rhodesian

0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:26.120
<v Speaker 2>Bush War once the American West cut them off from resources,

0:08:26.760 --> 0:08:29.080
<v Speaker 2>not because they weren't brave enough. They were so brave,

0:08:29.840 --> 0:08:33.319
<v Speaker 2>Not because they weren't good fighters. They were amazing fighters.

0:08:33.920 --> 0:08:35.640
<v Speaker 2>Not because they didn't have a great country. And the

0:08:35.679 --> 0:08:38.600
<v Speaker 2>right idea is they had a wonderful country. They were

0:08:38.640 --> 0:08:42.959
<v Speaker 2>always going to lose because it doesn't matter how many

0:08:43.160 --> 0:08:47.040
<v Speaker 2>Kami street animals you butcher out in the Rhodesian Bush

0:08:48.120 --> 0:08:53.240
<v Speaker 2>the Soviet Union, the People's Republic of China, they will

0:08:53.280 --> 0:08:58.080
<v Speaker 2>always find new recruits and write new checks and zend

0:08:58.160 --> 0:09:01.000
<v Speaker 2>a new group of a thousand of them into your

0:09:01.040 --> 0:09:06.480
<v Speaker 2>country to rape and terrorize in murder. Unless you can

0:09:06.600 --> 0:09:11.760
<v Speaker 2>travel up that chain and get to the institutions who

0:09:11.880 --> 0:09:16.240
<v Speaker 2>create the communists, all else is just noise. It is

0:09:17.840 --> 0:09:23.000
<v Speaker 2>all else. To be honest with you. It's cope. It's

0:09:23.000 --> 0:09:25.840
<v Speaker 2>just a coping mechanism, that's all it is. You're trying

0:09:25.880 --> 0:09:29.240
<v Speaker 2>to convince yourself that if we just arrest this this

0:09:29.360 --> 0:09:32.080
<v Speaker 2>street animal, you know what should do. Maybe you've even

0:09:32.120 --> 0:09:34.240
<v Speaker 2>said something violent in the past twenty four to forty

0:09:34.240 --> 0:09:37.120
<v Speaker 2>eight hours. I think we should try him tomorrow and

0:09:37.160 --> 0:09:44.560
<v Speaker 2>then skin him alive on national television. Okay, I applaud

0:09:44.600 --> 0:09:50.040
<v Speaker 2>your vigor. It would work. It just wouldn't work. Why

0:09:50.040 --> 0:09:56.120
<v Speaker 2>wouldn't it work? Because America has institutions, some foreign funded,

0:09:56.520 --> 0:10:01.680
<v Speaker 2>some domestic funded. They have communists run instance, we should say,

0:10:01.880 --> 0:10:06.600
<v Speaker 2>have communist run institutions in this country, and they produce

0:10:06.840 --> 0:10:10.720
<v Speaker 2>another thousand assassins a year, or I should say would

0:10:10.760 --> 0:10:16.439
<v Speaker 2>be assassins. There's a there's an assassin factory of institutions

0:10:16.480 --> 0:10:20.000
<v Speaker 2>in this country. If the factory stays running, this will

0:10:20.000 --> 0:10:24.720
<v Speaker 2>never stop. What's the biggest factory. We'll talk about that next.

0:10:24.760 --> 0:10:27.840
<v Speaker 2>Before we talk about that, let me talk to you

0:10:29.000 --> 0:10:32.199
<v Speaker 2>about making your life as an employer, as a business

0:10:32.240 --> 0:10:39.640
<v Speaker 2>owner easier. Is an insurance a huge paint, over and

0:10:39.679 --> 0:10:42.720
<v Speaker 2>over and over again. My dad would yell and scream

0:10:42.760 --> 0:10:43.680
<v Speaker 2>about insurance.

0:10:43.720 --> 0:10:45.480
<v Speaker 4>I swear insurance rules, the world.

0:10:45.480 --> 0:10:47.600
<v Speaker 2>He used to tell me, having to deal with all

0:10:47.600 --> 0:10:50.360
<v Speaker 2>these different insurance policies. Why do I have a bunch

0:10:50.360 --> 0:10:51.760
<v Speaker 2>of different insurance people.

0:10:51.800 --> 0:10:53.560
<v Speaker 4>I just can't I just talk to one guy.

0:10:54.679 --> 0:10:57.840
<v Speaker 2>Well, now you can. My dad never could. Now that

0:10:58.000 --> 0:11:02.600
<v Speaker 2>super Sure exists, you can. You see, you're over insured

0:11:02.640 --> 0:11:05.439
<v Speaker 2>in some areas and you're under insured in other areas

0:11:05.679 --> 0:11:08.640
<v Speaker 2>because you have all these different policies you don't fully understand,

0:11:09.040 --> 0:11:12.640
<v Speaker 2>and they give you some blanket coverage that doesn't even

0:11:12.679 --> 0:11:15.760

0:12:03.679 --> 0:12:08.920
<v Speaker 2>It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a magnificent Monday.

0:12:08.960 --> 0:12:11.640
<v Speaker 2>We had medal of Honor Monday. We're gonna get to emails.

0:12:11.679 --> 0:12:14.640
<v Speaker 2>We have John Conrad coming up ten minutes from now.

0:12:15.120 --> 0:12:19.240
<v Speaker 2>By the way, you can email us Jesse at jessekellyshow

0:12:19.280 --> 0:12:22.000
<v Speaker 2>dot com your love, your hate, your death threats. I

0:12:22.040 --> 0:12:24.600
<v Speaker 2>am going to tackle your emails about everything from this

0:12:24.640 --> 0:12:28.200
<v Speaker 2>shooting to other things. People have questions about the security.

0:12:28.280 --> 0:12:30.640
<v Speaker 2>How could this have happened? And I'm gonna lay that out.

0:12:30.800 --> 0:12:33.360
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna lay out, frankly, what happened because I can

0:12:33.400 --> 0:12:36.520
<v Speaker 2>tell you exactly what happened. What were our failures, what

0:12:36.559 --> 0:12:40.240
<v Speaker 2>were our successes? If we're failing, why are we failing?

0:12:40.800 --> 0:12:44.199
<v Speaker 2>We're going to talk about that, and that is something

0:12:44.280 --> 0:12:45.920
<v Speaker 2>very important to me because, as I mentioned at the

0:12:45.960 --> 0:12:47.959
<v Speaker 2>beginning of the show, I know it's ugly to think about,

0:12:47.960 --> 0:12:51.720
<v Speaker 2>but this culture of assassination we live in is not

0:12:51.840 --> 0:12:53.920
<v Speaker 2>going anywhere anytime soon. We have a lot of work

0:12:53.920 --> 0:12:56.959
<v Speaker 2>to do to make it go away. And so our

0:12:57.040 --> 0:13:00.640
<v Speaker 2>next guy, I'm assuming it's jdva Ants, but who knows

0:13:00.679 --> 0:13:03.840
<v Speaker 2>who it is. Our next guy is already in mortal danger.

0:13:05.760 --> 0:13:10.560
<v Speaker 2>I told you, I told you a long time before

0:13:10.600 --> 0:13:13.200
<v Speaker 2>that shot rang out in Butler that they were going

0:13:13.280 --> 0:13:16.080
<v Speaker 2>to kill Donald Trump. I warned you that they were,

0:13:16.240 --> 0:13:17.760
<v Speaker 2>and then he got shot in the head. By the

0:13:17.760 --> 0:13:20.040
<v Speaker 2>grace of God, he turned his head at the right time.

0:13:20.480 --> 0:13:22.920
<v Speaker 2>I told you it was coming, and I'm telling you

0:13:23.040 --> 0:13:26.600
<v Speaker 2>right now there is going to be a very credible

0:13:26.640 --> 0:13:29.760
<v Speaker 2>assassination attempt on the vice president of the United States

0:13:30.040 --> 0:13:32.480
<v Speaker 2>over the next few years. There's no question, certainly as

0:13:32.480 --> 0:13:35.679
<v Speaker 2>he ramps up his run for the presidency, whether it

0:13:35.760 --> 0:13:37.920
<v Speaker 2>will be successful or not. Gosh, I hope not, but

0:13:37.960 --> 0:13:42.400
<v Speaker 2>it's coming. I guarantee you it's coming, probably more than one. Now.

0:13:43.360 --> 0:13:45.839
<v Speaker 2>I want that to stop. I want to go back

0:13:45.840 --> 0:13:49.679
<v Speaker 2>to living in a normal country where communists don't kill

0:13:49.760 --> 0:13:52.920
<v Speaker 2>the people they disagree with. So we have to go

0:13:52.960 --> 0:13:54.360
<v Speaker 2>to the root of the problem. The root of the

0:13:54.360 --> 0:13:57.000
<v Speaker 2>problem is the institutions. I'm going to read something for you.

0:13:57.600 --> 0:14:00.960
<v Speaker 2>Credit to Rob Henderson, He's the one you pulled out

0:14:00.960 --> 0:14:08.120
<v Speaker 2>the chart. Relative to Americans with high school education, Americans

0:14:08.160 --> 0:14:14.000
<v Speaker 2>with graduate degrees are twice as likely to support political violence.

0:14:14.760 --> 0:14:20.400
<v Speaker 2>More education equals higher support for political violence. And there's

0:14:20.440 --> 0:14:26.120
<v Speaker 2>a chart here showing a staggering, staggering thing something we

0:14:26.200 --> 0:14:30.680
<v Speaker 2>talked about before. To break it down simply, the longer

0:14:30.720 --> 0:14:34.920
<v Speaker 2>you spend on a college campus, the more violent, demonic,

0:14:35.080 --> 0:14:38.480
<v Speaker 2>and communist you will become. If you just step foot

0:14:38.520 --> 0:14:41.120
<v Speaker 2>on there for half a second, it probably won't be bad.

0:14:41.440 --> 0:14:43.680
<v Speaker 2>You checked in and out for a year. Maybe you

0:14:43.800 --> 0:14:47.200
<v Speaker 2>get by. You go all the way to a bachelor's degree,

0:14:47.760 --> 0:14:50.600
<v Speaker 2>getting dicey, hope you pack up your stuff and leave.

0:14:51.040 --> 0:14:55.280
<v Speaker 2>You start sticking around for master's degrees and PhDs. You'll

0:14:55.280 --> 0:15:00.640
<v Speaker 2>be pollpot before you know it. Here's a headline cal Tech.

0:15:00.720 --> 0:15:04.160
<v Speaker 2>You know that's where this would be assassin went. Cal

0:15:04.320 --> 0:15:08.560
<v Speaker 2>Tech's probe into its racist pass isn't working. This is

0:15:08.560 --> 0:15:11.080
<v Speaker 2>an LA Times article that I will not go into.

0:15:12.120 --> 0:15:14.920
<v Speaker 2>Kyle Tech is supposed to be one of these engineering

0:15:15.080 --> 0:15:19.120
<v Speaker 2>super schools, very difficult to get into. This guy, this

0:15:19.200 --> 0:15:23.000
<v Speaker 2>would be assassin, probably had a very high IQ and

0:15:23.000 --> 0:15:27.120
<v Speaker 2>then he got into this prestigious school, cal Tech. Why

0:15:27.160 --> 0:15:30.960
<v Speaker 2>would a guy like this grab a shotgun and hop

0:15:31.040 --> 0:15:35.440
<v Speaker 2>on the train from LA to drive clear to Washington, DC.

0:15:36.160 --> 0:15:38.760
<v Speaker 2>And now he is a man. I don't know exactly

0:15:38.800 --> 0:15:41.360
<v Speaker 2>how old he is, but he is a man who

0:15:41.440 --> 0:15:46.600
<v Speaker 2>will probably die in prison one day. Old, wrinkled no

0:15:46.720 --> 0:15:50.840
<v Speaker 2>more California, no more freedom, no more sunny beaches, no

0:15:50.960 --> 0:15:57.040
<v Speaker 2>more esteak dinners. It's federal penitentiary time pow where you

0:15:57.200 --> 0:16:00.800
<v Speaker 2>better shower with two eyes and in the back of your

0:16:00.800 --> 0:16:04.560
<v Speaker 2>head for the rest of your life.

0:16:05.280 --> 0:16:09.520
<v Speaker 4>Why in the world, Why in the world.

0:16:09.240 --> 0:16:15.440
<v Speaker 2>Would he do that, Why would he risk that? Because

0:16:16.720 --> 0:16:21.720
<v Speaker 2>the university system in this country trains communists foot soldiers

0:16:21.720 --> 0:16:28.720
<v Speaker 2>to kill people. It just does. We are going to

0:16:28.800 --> 0:16:32.640
<v Speaker 2>have to start burning down the American university system. Legally.

0:16:32.680 --> 0:16:34.480
<v Speaker 2>By the way, legally, I don't want you to do anything,

0:16:34.480 --> 0:16:38.240
<v Speaker 2>I leo, please don't go physically burn anything down. We

0:16:38.280 --> 0:16:41.480
<v Speaker 2>are going to have to start not just stripping all

0:16:41.680 --> 0:16:45.680
<v Speaker 2>funding from these universities, we are going to have to

0:16:45.680 --> 0:16:49.840
<v Speaker 2>start firing everybody and closing the doors. I'm not even

0:16:49.840 --> 0:16:53.720
<v Speaker 2>close to kidding. If you want America to stop producing

0:16:53.840 --> 0:16:58.520
<v Speaker 2>communist assassins, one of the key institutions, one of the

0:16:58.640 --> 0:17:05.520
<v Speaker 2>key assassinctories in this country is America's university system. And

0:17:05.600 --> 0:17:07.960
<v Speaker 2>we could go deeper than that, because there is more

0:17:08.000 --> 0:17:10.560
<v Speaker 2>than that. Of course, the media institution. We could of

0:17:10.560 --> 0:17:14.040
<v Speaker 2>course go through k through twelve schools, even the companies

0:17:14.080 --> 0:17:18.080
<v Speaker 2>who make the textbooks. All these things are extremely valid targets.

0:17:18.480 --> 0:17:23.560
<v Speaker 2>But what we have to start prioritizing is the institutions themselves.

0:17:24.000 --> 0:17:27.040
<v Speaker 2>It's not enough to shoot the plane out of the sky.

0:17:27.640 --> 0:17:29.920
<v Speaker 2>What you need to do is get your butt down

0:17:29.960 --> 0:17:34.040
<v Speaker 2>to the plane factory and bomb it to smithereens. Then

0:17:34.080 --> 0:17:36.600
<v Speaker 2>it will stop producing the planes and you don't have

0:17:36.720 --> 0:17:38.320
<v Speaker 2>to shoot them out of the sky.

0:17:38.800 --> 0:17:41.280
<v Speaker 4>We are asking all these questions right now, and we're

0:17:41.280 --> 0:17:42.440
<v Speaker 4>asking the wrong ones.

0:17:42.640 --> 0:17:46.000
<v Speaker 2>But if we get a new White House ballroom it

0:17:46.080 --> 0:17:49.560
<v Speaker 2>does bulletproof glass, can we stop this in the future.

0:17:49.640 --> 0:17:52.240
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I'm all for it, build the ballroom, put

0:17:52.280 --> 0:17:53.520
<v Speaker 2>in the bulletproof glass.

0:17:53.600 --> 0:17:55.840
<v Speaker 4>But when you're at the place where you have to

0:17:55.880 --> 0:17:58.960
<v Speaker 4>put heads of state behind bulletproof glass when they give

0:17:58.960 --> 0:18:03.080
<v Speaker 4>a twenty minute speed a college campus, that's not a

0:18:03.080 --> 0:18:07.200
<v Speaker 4>healthy place. And the solution cannot be more bulletproof glass.

0:18:07.480 --> 0:18:10.040
<v Speaker 4>You have to find a way to smash the communist

0:18:10.119 --> 0:18:13.000
<v Speaker 4>movement into a fine powder, and you do that by

0:18:13.040 --> 0:18:18.640
<v Speaker 4>the complete dismantling and destruction of communist universities in this country.

0:18:20.800 --> 0:18:25.760
<v Speaker 4>We have to go after the institutions themselves. Throwing another

0:18:25.840 --> 0:18:30.200
<v Speaker 4>street animal in prison is not near enough, because there's another.

0:18:29.960 --> 0:18:32.879
<v Speaker 2>Ten of them. Waiting with weapons to kill you and

0:18:32.960 --> 0:18:37.800
<v Speaker 2>me in whoever the next Republican nominee is the institutions

0:18:37.840 --> 0:18:41.960
<v Speaker 2>that produce them must be ground to powder. Period. Talk

0:18:42.000 --> 0:18:43.800
<v Speaker 2>to John Conrad next.

0:18:44.280 --> 0:18:49.920
<v Speaker 1>Fighting for your freedom every day the Jesse Kelly Show.

0:18:51.640 --> 0:18:55.960
<v Speaker 2>It is the Jesse Kelly Show, and a wonderful Monday.

0:18:56.000 --> 0:18:59.200
<v Speaker 2>It's been an amazing Monday. And it's time to get

0:18:59.240 --> 0:19:03.360
<v Speaker 2>smarter about shipping things because that's kind of a fairly

0:19:03.480 --> 0:19:08.080
<v Speaker 2>important industry which is being revealed more and more every day.

0:19:08.520 --> 0:19:11.000
<v Speaker 2>We have blockades and everything else. I'm going to know

0:19:11.000 --> 0:19:13.000
<v Speaker 2>what's happening out there. So joining me now is he

0:19:13.040 --> 0:19:20.000
<v Speaker 2>has many times before? John Conrad, merchant Rine Captain author. Okay, John,

0:19:20.200 --> 0:19:24.760
<v Speaker 2>I'm shipping. We know that there's currently a blockade on

0:19:24.840 --> 0:19:28.520
<v Speaker 2>the Straight of hor Moves. How is that affecting or

0:19:28.600 --> 0:19:32.440
<v Speaker 2>is it affecting things worldwide on the high seas.

0:19:33.600 --> 0:19:36.440
<v Speaker 5>Well. You've already always been ahead of this curve by

0:19:36.600 --> 0:19:41.440
<v Speaker 5>Neon and guys like Ross Kennedy. I appreciate that it's

0:19:41.560 --> 0:19:44.920
<v Speaker 5>working its way through the system. It's not this apocalyptic.

0:19:44.960 --> 0:19:48.040
<v Speaker 5>If you read the news in Europe, they say it's

0:19:48.080 --> 0:19:53.320
<v Speaker 5>this apocalyptic problem. It hasn't been that you know, shipping

0:19:53.400 --> 0:19:56.920
<v Speaker 5>is very elastic, things can move around. These get new ships,

0:19:57.280 --> 0:19:59.920
<v Speaker 5>but it is definitely putting a strain on the system.

0:20:00.320 --> 0:20:03.720
<v Speaker 5>The bigger problem is going back to the poor congestion

0:20:03.880 --> 0:20:08.840
<v Speaker 5>crisis in twenty twenty, after COVID to the Panama Canal, drought,

0:20:08.920 --> 0:20:11.680
<v Speaker 5>to the Red Sea and the hoo Thi's there to

0:20:11.840 --> 0:20:16.640
<v Speaker 5>now this it's just increasing stress on the system. And

0:20:17.000 --> 0:20:22.080
<v Speaker 5>this is all participating in global inflation. You know, if

0:20:22.119 --> 0:20:26.040
<v Speaker 5>everything takes longer to get shipped, if you need more inventory,

0:20:26.480 --> 0:20:29.080
<v Speaker 5>prices are going to go up. So I think that's

0:20:29.119 --> 0:20:29.920
<v Speaker 5>the main effect.

0:20:30.720 --> 0:20:32.880
<v Speaker 2>Okay, pause, Sorry, I'm going to ask you a bunch

0:20:32.920 --> 0:20:35.200
<v Speaker 2>of nerdy details because I want to get smarter tonight

0:20:35.240 --> 0:20:38.000
<v Speaker 2>and then rub it in all my friends faces. Panama

0:20:38.720 --> 0:20:43.040
<v Speaker 2>Panama Canal drought one. Why is this whole canal important anyway?

0:20:43.160 --> 0:20:45.080
<v Speaker 2>To what drought? What are you talking about?

0:20:46.280 --> 0:20:49.159
<v Speaker 5>Well, the Panama Canal is the most important canal for

0:20:49.520 --> 0:20:52.240
<v Speaker 5>the US Navy because without the Panama Canal, we have

0:20:52.400 --> 0:20:55.479
<v Speaker 5>half our fleet in Norfolking, half in San Diego, and

0:20:55.520 --> 0:20:58.440
<v Speaker 5>if something, you know, war breaks out in China, you'd

0:20:58.440 --> 0:21:01.800
<v Speaker 5>have to go all the way around Argentina or South Africa.

0:21:01.880 --> 0:21:04.840
<v Speaker 5>South Africa has not been good friends lately. They've been

0:21:04.840 --> 0:21:08.400
<v Speaker 5>inviting Chinese and Russian in. We have a better relationship

0:21:08.440 --> 0:21:10.640
<v Speaker 5>with Argentina. But that's a lot of time to get

0:21:10.680 --> 0:21:12.960
<v Speaker 5>the navy all the way around there, and the weather's horrible.

0:21:13.560 --> 0:21:16.240
<v Speaker 5>The drought was two years ago. They ran out of water.

0:21:16.320 --> 0:21:20.600
<v Speaker 5>They built a second canal that's bigger next to the

0:21:20.640 --> 0:21:23.760
<v Speaker 5>original canal, and it uses a lot of water. They

0:21:23.960 --> 0:21:26.600
<v Speaker 5>collect the water in this lake and then the water

0:21:26.720 --> 0:21:32.120
<v Speaker 5>flushes out on each ship transit into the Pacific or Atlantic,

0:21:32.200 --> 0:21:34.679
<v Speaker 5>depending on which way you're going. Well, there's a limited

0:21:34.760 --> 0:21:39.359
<v Speaker 5>amount of water. If it doesn't rain, you can't transit,

0:21:39.480 --> 0:21:42.879
<v Speaker 5>so they had to limit the transits going through. This

0:21:43.080 --> 0:21:45.320
<v Speaker 5>led all the way up to the beginning of the administration.

0:21:46.080 --> 0:21:50.119
<v Speaker 5>Rubio and Pete Heigseth went down there and you know,

0:21:50.240 --> 0:21:54.800
<v Speaker 5>tried to negotiate this, you know, favorable term, saying, hey,

0:21:54.840 --> 0:21:57.360
<v Speaker 5>the US needs to be able to secure it. We

0:21:57.400 --> 0:22:00.480
<v Speaker 5>want free transit for US flag vessels and a few

0:22:00.640 --> 0:22:05.200
<v Speaker 5>other priority for US ships because when there's a drought

0:22:05.359 --> 0:22:11.480
<v Speaker 5>they start auctioning off. And there's some indication that they've

0:22:11.520 --> 0:22:14.160
<v Speaker 5>allowed US to have some security forces down there. Oh

0:22:14.200 --> 0:22:16.480
<v Speaker 5>and kicking the Chinese out of the port. They owned

0:22:16.480 --> 0:22:19.639
<v Speaker 5>the two ports, but the other ones have kind of installed.

0:22:19.960 --> 0:22:21.840
<v Speaker 5>They're still charging US ships.

0:22:22.680 --> 0:22:25.719
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so let's go back over to the Strait of

0:22:25.800 --> 0:22:28.520
<v Speaker 2>horror moves before we talk about some shakeups in the

0:22:28.600 --> 0:22:32.520
<v Speaker 2>navy and things like that. People are confused about how

0:22:32.560 --> 0:22:35.359
<v Speaker 2>we can wipe their navy off the high seas with

0:22:35.480 --> 0:22:39.639
<v Speaker 2>such ease, and yet things are not flowing. What is

0:22:39.760 --> 0:22:40.640
<v Speaker 2>happening and why?

0:22:42.280 --> 0:22:44.920
<v Speaker 5>Well, I at the very beginning was very anti war.

0:22:45.000 --> 0:22:47.240
<v Speaker 5>I think a lot of us were anti war. And

0:22:47.320 --> 0:22:51.520
<v Speaker 5>there were some initial casualties. But if you know, to

0:22:51.520 --> 0:22:53.560
<v Speaker 5>get to this point where we are now, I was

0:22:53.600 --> 0:22:57.560
<v Speaker 5>anticipating two thousand casualties. We haven't come close to that number.

0:22:57.960 --> 0:23:02.080
<v Speaker 5>And now what we see is the President doesn't want

0:23:02.119 --> 0:23:05.280
<v Speaker 5>any more casualties. Pete Hegsett doesn't want anymore. The Navy

0:23:05.280 --> 0:23:09.040
<v Speaker 5>doesn't want anymore. So we're starting to, you know, send

0:23:09.080 --> 0:23:11.760
<v Speaker 5>We just sent some two destroyers in for the first

0:23:11.800 --> 0:23:14.920
<v Speaker 5>time last week. We're starting to do a little bit

0:23:14.920 --> 0:23:18.560
<v Speaker 5>of mind clearing. But they're taking their sweet time, Jesse,

0:23:18.720 --> 0:23:21.560
<v Speaker 5>and they're taking their sweet time because I Ran can't

0:23:21.600 --> 0:23:26.919
<v Speaker 5>be trusted and they we don't use the uh, you know,

0:23:26.960 --> 0:23:29.800
<v Speaker 5>we don't we make our we have our own oil.

0:23:29.840 --> 0:23:31.880
<v Speaker 5>We use some oil from the Middle East, but it's

0:23:31.920 --> 0:23:35.399
<v Speaker 5>not critical to us like it is in Europe. So

0:23:35.760 --> 0:23:39.240
<v Speaker 5>they don't want to put the Navy, Marines, Army in

0:23:39.440 --> 0:23:43.520
<v Speaker 5>harm's way. They'd rather take their time and do this slowly.

0:23:44.560 --> 0:23:48.760
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so you said in harm's way for the normal

0:23:48.800 --> 0:23:52.800
<v Speaker 2>person who doesn't understand this, what could harm us? At

0:23:52.880 --> 0:23:56.160
<v Speaker 2>least our navy ships? We wipe their air force out,

0:23:56.160 --> 0:23:58.919
<v Speaker 2>We wiped out their navy. What can hurt us? Did

0:23:59.000 --> 0:23:59.680
<v Speaker 2>I Ron has?

0:24:00.960 --> 0:24:05.720
<v Speaker 5>You're right, we did a fantastic job operationally. But it's

0:24:05.760 --> 0:24:09.080
<v Speaker 5>an insurgency, right, So these the straight of horror news

0:24:09.160 --> 0:24:11.240
<v Speaker 5>is a big u And one side of that you

0:24:11.520 --> 0:24:13.520
<v Speaker 5>is Iran. And there are a lot of places that

0:24:13.560 --> 0:24:17.000
<v Speaker 5>you could hide drones, hide missiles, hide these speedboats. We

0:24:17.080 --> 0:24:20.439
<v Speaker 5>see them, you know, launching these Boston whalers, and you

0:24:20.520 --> 0:24:23.159
<v Speaker 5>could put some minds in it. There already might be

0:24:23.359 --> 0:24:26.520
<v Speaker 5>minds in the strait of hor moves. So the real

0:24:26.600 --> 0:24:29.640
<v Speaker 5>way that you would secure a straight like that, say

0:24:29.680 --> 0:24:32.080
<v Speaker 5>this was a war against China and you absolutely had

0:24:32.119 --> 0:24:34.920
<v Speaker 5>to secure the straight, is you would send the Marines

0:24:35.000 --> 0:24:38.520
<v Speaker 5>boots on the ground. Maybe not a long term mission

0:24:38.760 --> 0:24:40.879
<v Speaker 5>like months, but you would at least surge them in

0:24:41.000 --> 0:24:43.119
<v Speaker 5>for a week or two in order to check the

0:24:43.160 --> 0:24:46.360
<v Speaker 5>basements and clear out the jones and destroy the Boston whalers.

0:24:46.600 --> 0:24:49.480
<v Speaker 5>We don't even seem willing to do that. So we're

0:24:49.520 --> 0:24:51.520
<v Speaker 5>taking a very cautious approach here.

0:24:52.280 --> 0:24:55.800
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so we're taking a cautious approach. I understand that

0:24:55.840 --> 0:24:59.240
<v Speaker 2>the Trump administration doesn't want soldiers to die, certainly doesn't

0:24:59.280 --> 0:25:01.679
<v Speaker 2>want more bad I tend minds. I understand all that,

0:25:02.240 --> 0:25:08.360
<v Speaker 2>but that clearly is going to extend the timeline somewhat correct.

0:25:08.400 --> 0:25:09.760
<v Speaker 2>I mean, I realize Iran.

0:25:09.520 --> 0:25:13.840
<v Speaker 5>It's hurting, but significantly, go ahead, go ahead, please, it's

0:25:14.320 --> 0:25:19.520
<v Speaker 5>extending the timeline significantly. We probably could have. You know,

0:25:19.600 --> 0:25:22.119
<v Speaker 5>some ships were going through because I ran much charging

0:25:22.160 --> 0:25:25.840
<v Speaker 5>them this toll a few weeks ago. That has gone

0:25:25.920 --> 0:25:29.040
<v Speaker 5>down because we've instituted a blockade. We've told people you

0:25:29.080 --> 0:25:33.400
<v Speaker 5>can't you can't pay Iran to go through. I ran

0:25:33.520 --> 0:25:36.440
<v Speaker 5>clear doesn't have minds on their side, so they were

0:25:36.480 --> 0:25:40.239
<v Speaker 5>allowing this and we've put an end to that. So

0:25:40.280 --> 0:25:43.560
<v Speaker 5>we're kind of in a stalemate now. I ran As

0:25:43.600 --> 0:25:48.200
<v Speaker 5>blog says they're block heating friendly ships, and the US

0:25:48.400 --> 0:25:52.960
<v Speaker 5>is blockading ships that could be transporting missiles or other

0:25:53.080 --> 0:25:58.360
<v Speaker 5>cargo oil that benefits Iran. We're allowing humanitarian supplies three,

0:25:58.480 --> 0:26:02.439
<v Speaker 5>but not oil or dangerous goods.

0:26:02.520 --> 0:26:07.600
<v Speaker 2>Okay, And you don't see an economic problem coming yet.

0:26:07.680 --> 0:26:09.960
<v Speaker 2>I know you indicated that we could be in store

0:26:10.000 --> 0:26:11.840
<v Speaker 2>for one, but as of now, we're holding.

0:26:11.960 --> 0:26:16.080
<v Speaker 5>Okay, Well, we're holding. Okay. Europe's in bigger trouble. They're

0:26:16.160 --> 0:26:21.600
<v Speaker 5>running out of jet fuel. We've seen shortages in Australia, Korea,

0:26:22.359 --> 0:26:27.080
<v Speaker 5>other places are having this problem price of oil. Because California,

0:26:27.119 --> 0:26:30.720
<v Speaker 5>Gavin Newsom shut down so many refineries. The oil goes

0:26:30.840 --> 0:26:32.960
<v Speaker 5>from the Gulf of Mexico all the way to South

0:26:33.040 --> 0:26:37.920
<v Speaker 5>Korea and then gets brought back to California to supply

0:26:38.280 --> 0:26:41.760
<v Speaker 5>the cars. Well, because all the ships are moving around

0:26:41.760 --> 0:26:44.280
<v Speaker 5>trying to get oil from other places, we don't have

0:26:44.480 --> 0:26:47.879
<v Speaker 5>extra tankers. So to get that tanker, you've got to

0:26:47.920 --> 0:26:50.879
<v Speaker 5>spend a lot more money. So the price of gasoline

0:26:50.920 --> 0:26:53.920
<v Speaker 5>I was just in California, it was like seven dollars

0:26:53.960 --> 0:26:56.480
<v Speaker 5>and sixty cents for a gallon of diesel, and that

0:26:57.040 --> 0:27:02.720
<v Speaker 5>diesel costs all farmers, all anyone running a generator. So

0:27:03.040 --> 0:27:07.720
<v Speaker 5>there are costs, but the acute costs is on our allies.

0:27:07.800 --> 0:27:10.840
<v Speaker 5>It's on Europe, and Europe does not could send mine

0:27:10.840 --> 0:27:13.720
<v Speaker 5>sweepers themselves. They don't want to send the mine sweepers.

0:27:13.760 --> 0:27:17.280
<v Speaker 5>So we're in this kind of stalemate here. Trump saying, hey,

0:27:17.320 --> 0:27:19.160
<v Speaker 5>if you want to, if you want this, good because

0:27:19.160 --> 0:27:21.440
<v Speaker 5>it's you could run out of jet fuel before the

0:27:21.480 --> 0:27:23.880
<v Speaker 5>big travel season in the summer. You know you need

0:27:23.920 --> 0:27:25.960
<v Speaker 5>to help. Here in Europe saying, well, we need to

0:27:26.000 --> 0:27:28.240
<v Speaker 5>start this war. We don't want to help, and that's

0:27:28.320 --> 0:27:29.120
<v Speaker 5>part of the stalemate.

0:27:30.080 --> 0:27:31.879
<v Speaker 2>John, do you have time to do just a couple

0:27:31.920 --> 0:27:34.000
<v Speaker 2>more questions another segment with me real quick. I want

0:27:34.000 --> 0:27:34.520
<v Speaker 2>to ask about a.

0:27:34.480 --> 0:27:37.280
<v Speaker 5>Couple of the things I always got to have time

0:27:37.280 --> 0:27:38.200
<v Speaker 5>for you, Jesse.

0:27:38.240 --> 0:27:40.000
<v Speaker 2>My man, all right, we're going to be right back

0:27:40.040 --> 0:27:42.640
<v Speaker 2>with John Conrad. I want to ask about the new

0:27:42.880 --> 0:27:48.359
<v Speaker 2>Navy secretary's shakeups going on shipbuilding. Other questions. Hang on,

0:27:50.680 --> 0:27:51.960
<v Speaker 2>Jesse Kelly.

0:27:53.359 --> 0:27:53.840
<v Speaker 1>Becksian.

0:27:55.280 --> 0:27:59.760
<v Speaker 2>It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful

0:28:00.400 --> 0:28:02.560
<v Speaker 2>Remember you can email us your love, your hate, your

0:28:02.600 --> 0:28:07.159
<v Speaker 2>death threats Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com. Back with

0:28:07.200 --> 0:28:11.760
<v Speaker 2>our favorite Merchant, Marine and History Captain John Conrad. Okay, John,

0:28:12.280 --> 0:28:15.119
<v Speaker 2>we got news it would be just political nerds, but

0:28:15.600 --> 0:28:17.760
<v Speaker 2>we got news that there's been a shake up in

0:28:17.800 --> 0:28:22.080
<v Speaker 2>the Navy, the big Cheese, and no one really understood why.

0:28:22.200 --> 0:28:22.960
<v Speaker 2>What's going on?

0:28:24.920 --> 0:28:28.480
<v Speaker 5>Well, John Feeling came in as Secretary of the Navy,

0:28:28.560 --> 0:28:31.640
<v Speaker 5>this top civilian in the Navy and has a lot

0:28:31.680 --> 0:28:33.840
<v Speaker 5>of control over what the Navy's doing. And he had

0:28:33.920 --> 0:28:37.600
<v Speaker 5>a chief of staff named John Harrison, who is a

0:28:37.640 --> 0:28:41.720
<v Speaker 5>real go getter. He kind of looked at Nimitz and

0:28:41.840 --> 0:28:43.760
<v Speaker 5>King world War two and said, hey, we got to

0:28:43.760 --> 0:28:46.760
<v Speaker 5>really break some heads here, and that caused a lot

0:28:46.960 --> 0:28:50.200
<v Speaker 5>of stress in the Navy. So Harrison was pushed out

0:28:50.240 --> 0:28:54.440
<v Speaker 5>in October, and John Feeling's kind of been moving along

0:28:54.560 --> 0:28:59.160
<v Speaker 5>the ball that John Harrison plays a major reorganization of

0:28:59.200 --> 0:29:03.520
<v Speaker 5>the Navy, all these things. But the president's priority has

0:29:03.600 --> 0:29:08.480
<v Speaker 5>been shipbuilding, and the secretary in the Navy has been

0:29:08.480 --> 0:29:10.840
<v Speaker 5>doing a good job. You know, he got us the

0:29:10.840 --> 0:29:13.400
<v Speaker 5>Golden Fleet, he's getting us new frigates, he's getting us

0:29:13.600 --> 0:29:16.840
<v Speaker 5>a battleship. He's got a fifty percent increase in shipbuilding.

0:29:17.080 --> 0:29:21.400
<v Speaker 5>He's fixed a lot of the budgetary problems, in the Navy.

0:29:21.720 --> 0:29:25.120
<v Speaker 5>This guy's a billionaire, he's friends with Trump. He has

0:29:25.160 --> 0:29:29.080
<v Speaker 5>the mansion right next tomorrow Lago, very successful businessman. He's

0:29:29.080 --> 0:29:31.120
<v Speaker 5>cleaned out a lot of that, and he did it

0:29:31.120 --> 0:29:34.360
<v Speaker 5>in the first year. But John Feeln is not a

0:29:34.440 --> 0:29:36.440
<v Speaker 5>guy who gets on media. He won't get on the

0:29:36.520 --> 0:29:40.479
<v Speaker 5>Jesse Kelly Show, he won't do videos. And then in

0:29:40.560 --> 0:29:44.240
<v Speaker 5>the shipbuilding world is you can't build a stealth jet

0:29:44.320 --> 0:29:46.360
<v Speaker 5>like you can in the Air Force and skunk works.

0:29:46.760 --> 0:29:49.000
<v Speaker 5>You have to get the unions together. You've got to

0:29:49.000 --> 0:29:51.160
<v Speaker 5>get the shipyard. You got to get Wall Street excited.

0:29:51.200 --> 0:29:53.239
<v Speaker 5>You've got to get the people excited to call their

0:29:53.360 --> 0:29:57.280
<v Speaker 5>congressman and want to put all this money. Shipbuilding is expensive.

0:29:57.640 --> 0:30:00.200
<v Speaker 5>And you know, he did all of these reforms, a

0:30:00.200 --> 0:30:02.560
<v Speaker 5>lot of them were good, but then the air kind

0:30:02.600 --> 0:30:04.600
<v Speaker 5>of came out of the tires of the whole thing.

0:30:05.120 --> 0:30:08.040
<v Speaker 5>And you know, this Navy conference I was at last

0:30:08.040 --> 0:30:11.320
<v Speaker 5>week last year, it was brimming with excitement, it was

0:30:11.640 --> 0:30:14.880
<v Speaker 5>full house. They sold out of tickets. This year, it

0:30:14.960 --> 0:30:17.120
<v Speaker 5>was kind of kind of boring, and people were like,

0:30:17.160 --> 0:30:20.160
<v Speaker 5>I don't know if this is actually getting through. So

0:30:20.440 --> 0:30:24.600
<v Speaker 5>the President let John Feeling go, brought in hung Cow

0:30:24.800 --> 0:30:28.040
<v Speaker 5>who's great on video. It's one of the most popular

0:30:28.720 --> 0:30:31.280
<v Speaker 5>videos on x You know when he was running for Senate,

0:30:32.000 --> 0:30:35.720
<v Speaker 5>just railing against communism. Uh. He was born in Vietnam

0:30:35.800 --> 0:30:39.080
<v Speaker 5>right before it fell, and you know, a real success

0:30:39.120 --> 0:30:41.920
<v Speaker 5>story and became a Navy EO D and Navy captain.

0:30:42.400 --> 0:30:45.520
<v Speaker 5>He's an expert with minds because that's what eods do with.

0:30:46.000 --> 0:30:46.120
<v Speaker 2>UH.

0:30:46.560 --> 0:30:50.440
<v Speaker 5>And he's now in He's already released two videos. He's

0:30:50.480 --> 0:30:53.360
<v Speaker 5>already walked back some of the structural change, and I

0:30:53.400 --> 0:30:57.280
<v Speaker 5>think he's gonna, you know, infuse some enthusiasm in the shipbuilding.

0:30:58.400 --> 0:31:01.640
<v Speaker 2>Okay, the show building. You reference that all the time.

0:31:01.640 --> 0:31:03.120
<v Speaker 2>I know it's near and dear to your heart, and

0:31:03.160 --> 0:31:07.120
<v Speaker 2>you've referenced the problems we have with it before. Can

0:31:07.160 --> 0:31:09.640
<v Speaker 2>you tell me is it getting better? Because I know

0:31:09.720 --> 0:31:13.000
<v Speaker 2>that's something Trump's hot on. It's something he stresses that

0:31:13.080 --> 0:31:16.040
<v Speaker 2>China can do it and we cannot. Are we getting better?

0:31:16.080 --> 0:31:20.000
<v Speaker 5>And why well we will? We will even if everything

0:31:20.040 --> 0:31:23.800
<v Speaker 5>Trump goes through, we won't approach China. China's four times

0:31:23.840 --> 0:31:27.000
<v Speaker 5>four hundred times to ship building capacity. We do. We're

0:31:27.000 --> 0:31:30.360
<v Speaker 5>not trying to compete with China, but we've built zero

0:31:30.520 --> 0:31:34.960
<v Speaker 5>merchant ships last year, and our navy ships. The newest

0:31:35.040 --> 0:31:39.280
<v Speaker 5>carrier is seventeen years overdue. It's been we've been building

0:31:39.280 --> 0:31:41.760
<v Speaker 5>it for seventeen years, Jesse. So we want to get

0:31:41.800 --> 0:31:45.640
<v Speaker 5>some action. What I tell people is this last year

0:31:45.760 --> 0:31:48.080
<v Speaker 5>I have been the most excited I've been in my

0:31:48.200 --> 0:31:52.120
<v Speaker 5>thirty year career at seat, but then I become the

0:31:52.120 --> 0:31:55.360
<v Speaker 5>most depressed I've ever been in my thirty year big career.

0:31:55.680 --> 0:31:59.479
<v Speaker 5>So O're flip flopping between, hey, here's an amazing Trump

0:31:59.600 --> 0:32:02.680
<v Speaker 5>execut of action, and then you know, all the players,

0:32:02.720 --> 0:32:06.720
<v Speaker 5>the Navy Maritime Administration dropped the ball, here's a maritime

0:32:06.800 --> 0:32:09.560
<v Speaker 5>action plan, here's a new Secretary of Navy who redoes this,

0:32:09.960 --> 0:32:12.640
<v Speaker 5>and then they don't follow through with the video and

0:32:12.680 --> 0:32:15.680
<v Speaker 5>the podcast and really selling it to the American public.

0:32:16.000 --> 0:32:19.280
<v Speaker 5>So we're flip flobbing some really good structural things. But

0:32:20.040 --> 0:32:23.040
<v Speaker 5>you know, excitement's dying, and if we don't get some

0:32:23.200 --> 0:32:26.360
<v Speaker 5>traction before midterms, you know the next two years is

0:32:26.440 --> 0:32:29.479
<v Speaker 5>just going to be the Democrats fighting us. So now's

0:32:29.520 --> 0:32:33.120
<v Speaker 5>the time. Now's the chance to get it done. And

0:32:33.160 --> 0:32:36.160
<v Speaker 5>I think bringing Hung Caw, someone who's who's out there,

0:32:36.200 --> 0:32:40.000
<v Speaker 5>who's verbal, who knows this as a priority I think

0:32:40.000 --> 0:32:42.880
<v Speaker 5>this is the last hail Mary to get this done,

0:32:42.960 --> 0:32:45.440
<v Speaker 5>because it's not we're not getting actual traction. A lot

0:32:45.480 --> 0:32:48.080
<v Speaker 5>of money, a lot of structure, but we're not actually

0:32:48.080 --> 0:32:49.360
<v Speaker 5>building ships yet.

0:32:49.760 --> 0:32:54.080
<v Speaker 2>John, How has our navy performed with this whole Iran thing? Obviously,

0:32:54.120 --> 0:32:56.920
<v Speaker 2>I know we're dominant much better than they are technologically

0:32:57.000 --> 0:32:59.600
<v Speaker 2>every possible way. I understand all that. But are there

0:32:59.720 --> 0:33:02.880
<v Speaker 2>are there things that happened or didn't happen that raised

0:33:02.880 --> 0:33:04.040
<v Speaker 2>some concern for you?

0:33:05.480 --> 0:33:08.080
<v Speaker 5>Yeah. The number one thing is we got the best

0:33:08.160 --> 0:33:10.840
<v Speaker 5>navy in the world. These guys are really good, Jesse,

0:33:11.000 --> 0:33:14.040
<v Speaker 5>but they don't have enough destroyers, they don't have enough oilers,

0:33:14.080 --> 0:33:19.440
<v Speaker 5>they don't have enough cargo ships to resupply these carriers

0:33:19.440 --> 0:33:22.120
<v Speaker 5>and stuff at sea. But the problem is, and the

0:33:22.160 --> 0:33:25.320
<v Speaker 5>problem has been for two decades, is when we're in

0:33:25.360 --> 0:33:29.320
<v Speaker 5>a pinch, when Americans, you know, backs are against the wall,

0:33:29.640 --> 0:33:31.560
<v Speaker 5>we figure out a way to get it done. We

0:33:31.600 --> 0:33:34.080
<v Speaker 5>figure out a way that that may not be ideal.

0:33:34.480 --> 0:33:36.280
<v Speaker 5>We may have to get out some duct tape and

0:33:36.320 --> 0:33:38.600
<v Speaker 5>some super glue, but we're going to get that done.

0:33:38.880 --> 0:33:41.040
<v Speaker 5>And the problem is, when you get it done, then

0:33:41.080 --> 0:33:43.400
<v Speaker 5>Congress says, well you got it done, last time, Why

0:33:43.440 --> 0:33:46.600
<v Speaker 5>do you need more ships? And you know, the problems

0:33:46.680 --> 0:33:50.040
<v Speaker 5>keep mounting up. So there were a lot of problems

0:33:50.440 --> 0:33:53.600
<v Speaker 5>with the Iran thing, but the Navy found you know,

0:33:54.000 --> 0:33:57.680
<v Speaker 5>kind of jerry rigged around them, so we didn't really

0:33:57.680 --> 0:34:02.040
<v Speaker 5>see those problems. But now we got three carriers in

0:34:02.080 --> 0:34:05.880
<v Speaker 5>the Persian Golf. One of them has been the second

0:34:05.960 --> 0:34:10.200
<v Speaker 5>longest deployment in US Navy's history for a ship. So

0:34:10.239 --> 0:34:12.799
<v Speaker 5>these guys are tired, they're over worked. And now when

0:34:12.800 --> 0:34:16.000
<v Speaker 5>these ships go back, you know, the lot breaks when

0:34:16.040 --> 0:34:19.399
<v Speaker 5>you push the envelope like this, and it just kind

0:34:19.440 --> 0:34:20.640
<v Speaker 5>of gunks up the whole system.

0:34:20.680 --> 0:34:23.719
<v Speaker 2>If that makes sense, Oh it does? It does. Where

0:34:23.760 --> 0:34:26.279
<v Speaker 2>do we repair our ships now just back at home

0:34:26.400 --> 0:34:28.160
<v Speaker 2>or is there some other place we can dock them

0:34:28.200 --> 0:34:28.799
<v Speaker 2>and fix them.

0:34:29.760 --> 0:34:34.120
<v Speaker 5>We just opened up allowed Korean i think in Japan,

0:34:34.800 --> 0:34:37.719
<v Speaker 5>letting them repair our ships. It used to be just

0:34:37.760 --> 0:34:40.239
<v Speaker 5>in the United States. You know, the Navy used to

0:34:40.280 --> 0:34:43.160
<v Speaker 5>build their own ships. The Brooklyn Navy Yard that built

0:34:43.160 --> 0:34:46.279
<v Speaker 5>our battleships, that was owned by the government, operated by

0:34:46.320 --> 0:34:49.560
<v Speaker 5>the government. And there were these public shipyards Philly, there

0:34:49.600 --> 0:34:55.920
<v Speaker 5>was one in Hawaii, one in Washington. We change that now,

0:34:56.000 --> 0:34:59.520
<v Speaker 5>so all our ships are built by private or you

0:34:59.520 --> 0:35:02.319
<v Speaker 5>know some of the company's issue stocks, they're built by

0:35:02.400 --> 0:35:06.799
<v Speaker 5>private defense contractors. But the Navy routine three yards that

0:35:06.880 --> 0:35:10.600
<v Speaker 5>do repairs. So the warships are at our three public

0:35:10.760 --> 0:35:17.080
<v Speaker 5>shipyards in Norfolk, Washington, I believe, in Hawaii, and then

0:35:17.120 --> 0:35:20.720
<v Speaker 5>we have a few Dakins and Alabama shipyard that repair

0:35:20.840 --> 0:35:23.640
<v Speaker 5>kind of our oilers and our auxiliary ships.

0:35:23.719 --> 0:35:28.040
<v Speaker 2>Right now, Okay, John, you are a wealth of information, buddy,

0:35:28.080 --> 0:35:29.359
<v Speaker 2>John Conrad, thank you.

0:35:29.280 --> 0:35:31.799
<v Speaker 5>So much, brother, Thank you for having me.

0:35:33.640 --> 0:35:35.400
<v Speaker 2>I feel like my tea levels just went up when

0:35:35.400 --> 0:35:38.560
<v Speaker 2>I listened to that, all that talk about battleships and

0:35:38.600 --> 0:35:41.759
<v Speaker 2>destroyers and minds. I mean, maybe it has more to

0:35:41.800 --> 0:35:45.040
<v Speaker 2>do with the male vitality stack from chalk that's flowing

0:35:45.120 --> 0:35:47.880
<v Speaker 2>through my veins than it does actual navy talk. But

0:35:48.000 --> 0:35:52.720
<v Speaker 2>still tell me that wasn't sweet. You know what, maybe

0:35:52.760 --> 0:35:56.840
<v Speaker 2>we should name our next battleship the USS Chalk. What

0:35:56.880 --> 0:36:01.440
<v Speaker 2>do you think about that, Chris, Natural herbal supplements. Whether

0:36:01.560 --> 0:36:04.480
