How often do I say that to you? 26 00:01:57,120 --> 00:01:59,840 Speaker 1: But remember, we talk all the time about not funding 27 00:02:00,160 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: people going after us, going after our livelihood, after our culture. 28 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:08,280 Speaker 1: You're gonna have to buckle up for this one. It's 29 00:02:08,320 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 1: gonna be time for you and I. I'm gonna include 30 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:15,680 Speaker 1: myself on this to be more purposeful with how we 31 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:22,000 Speaker 1: spend our money and finally a massive payoff the COVID bill. 32 00:02:22,120 --> 00:02:27,600 Speaker 1: But first, let's go to Spain. I've always wanted to 33 00:02:27,600 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 1: go to Spain. I've heard their tapas, which is just 34 00:02:31,600 --> 00:02:34,920 Speaker 1: like appetizers or something or tapas. Shut up, Chris, I've 35 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 1: heard they're amazing. I've heard Spain has good food, the 36 00:02:38,560 --> 00:02:43,959 Speaker 1: music's fun. I kind of want to go to a bullfight. Look, 37 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:50,240 Speaker 1: I want to go to a bullfight. What would I 38 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:56,160 Speaker 1: run with the bulls? I would run with the bulls. 39 00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:57,920 Speaker 1: I would run with the bulls. I will say this 40 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: though full disclosure, and it's not as if I avoid 41 00:03:02,280 --> 00:03:06,080 Speaker 1: living life now. I mean I did. I did ziplining 42 00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,639 Speaker 1: off a five hundred foot tower in Mexico. So it's 43 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,560 Speaker 1: not like I avoid living life. Now I'm diving in 44 00:03:11,600 --> 00:03:13,520 Speaker 1: the ocean. I'm still you know, I'm I'm a dude. 45 00:03:13,680 --> 00:03:17,120 Speaker 1: I gotta take some chances to feel alive. I don't 46 00:03:17,240 --> 00:03:20,160 Speaker 1: know that I would run with the bulls until my 47 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,640 Speaker 1: boys are out of the house, until they graduate high school. 48 00:03:23,680 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: You know, my boys are getting kicked out of the house. 49 00:03:25,600 --> 00:03:28,120 Speaker 1: I've told you all a thousand times. When they graduate 50 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:31,600 Speaker 1: high school. I feel differently about that kind of stuff now, 51 00:03:31,680 --> 00:03:34,160 Speaker 1: like I'm not going to skydive until the boys are 52 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:35,880 Speaker 1: out of the house. Then I might skydive because it 53 00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:38,400 Speaker 1: scares me. It scares me, so I want to do it. 54 00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: I probably would run with the bulls. But anyway, Spain 55 00:03:41,360 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: seems like a fun place. And I was thinking about this. 56 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:51,800 Speaker 1: We've never really discussed the dictator that arose in Spain, 57 00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:58,360 Speaker 1: like I said, Nazi collaborator, no doubt. What do you 58 00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: want to call him a murderer? Maybe? I don't know. 59 00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:05,880 Speaker 1: You'll have to decide for yourself, but kind of rooting 60 00:04:05,920 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 1: for him and he's sold to you in me as 61 00:04:11,440 --> 00:04:17,400 Speaker 1: this monster. He's sold as Hitler, Mussolini, Stalin. This guy 62 00:04:17,480 --> 00:04:20,200 Speaker 1: is a monster. I'm not so sure he is. You 63 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 1: can decide for yourself and don't just accept. If this 64 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 1: story interest you, don't just accept what I tell you 65 00:04:27,760 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: about it. Go dig into it. You decide for yourself. 66 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,320 Speaker 1: And remember you can call in eight seven seven three 67 00:04:35,400 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 1: seven seven four three seven three, or you can email 68 00:04:39,080 --> 00:04:43,680 Speaker 1: Jesse at Jesse Kelly show dot com your love, your hate, 69 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:47,680 Speaker 1: your death threats. You're ask doctor Jesse questions. You can 70 00:04:47,720 --> 00:04:49,719 Speaker 1: send them in all week long. We will get to 71 00:04:49,800 --> 00:04:55,000 Speaker 1: some throughout the week, but mostly that's a Friday thing. Now, Spain, 72 00:04:56,680 --> 00:05:02,680 Speaker 1: as you know, sixteenth seventeenth century Spain was running things, 73 00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:06,000 Speaker 1: especially in the Western world. We have had this talk 74 00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:10,599 Speaker 1: on the show before. Go look at Spanish territories at 75 00:05:10,640 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 1: the height of their power. It's absurd. It's absurd Spain. 76 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,839 Speaker 1: It's just that country on the Iberian Peninsula now, because 77 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:22,919 Speaker 1: it's not that long ago they had half the world. 78 00:05:23,320 --> 00:05:28,640 Speaker 1: Spain was huge and they're really marching through the Western world. 79 00:05:29,640 --> 00:05:35,160 Speaker 1: But as often happens, monarchies begin to rot at the 80 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,839 Speaker 1: top after a given amount of time, and it was 81 00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:42,360 Speaker 1: very much a monarchy, and they did. They didn't colonize. Well, 82 00:05:43,120 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 1: we've had this discussion a thousand times. Some countries colonized 83 00:05:47,160 --> 00:05:50,560 Speaker 1: really well, get good, get a good hold on the country, 84 00:05:50,560 --> 00:05:54,480 Speaker 1: but also improve things to the people are happy, incorporate things. 85 00:05:54,480 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: Spain really just pillaged everywhere. And I don't mean, I 86 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:00,719 Speaker 1: don't mean they abuse the people, though there were certainly 87 00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,000 Speaker 1: obviously some of that, But Spain was only in it 88 00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:05,920 Speaker 1: for the gold. Hi, we're Spain, We're taking over here. 89 00:06:05,920 --> 00:06:08,560 Speaker 1: But actually, just where are your gold mines? That's really 90 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:10,000 Speaker 1: all I want is the gold mines. No, no, no, 91 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:11,560 Speaker 1: I don't care what you do. That's fine, we're the 92 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 1: gold mines at I need those gold mines. That's how 93 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: Spain did it. That's not gonna be a lasting thing. 94 00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:24,359 Speaker 1: So Spain begins to crumble and crumble and crumble and crumble, 95 00:06:25,320 --> 00:06:30,440 Speaker 1: and eventually, well, the Spanish American War is pretty much 96 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:32,760 Speaker 1: gonna finish them off. But we're gonna get to that 97 00:06:32,839 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 1: in a moment. Francisco Franco he was born a military man. 98 00:06:40,640 --> 00:06:43,360 Speaker 1: His father was a Navy dude to vice admiral in 99 00:06:43,400 --> 00:06:48,719 Speaker 1: the Navy. His father is supposedly a world class piece 100 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:53,880 Speaker 1: of crap. He was a hard disciplinarian, but it went 101 00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:56,600 Speaker 1: more than I mean, it was more than just oh, 102 00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:59,240 Speaker 1: here's a little smack onund rear end for mouth and off. 103 00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:06,120 Speaker 1: His father genuinely disliked his children and really disliked Francisco Franco. 104 00:07:07,000 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 1: Franco was for his entire life, and it was really 105 00:07:10,320 --> 00:07:15,480 Speaker 1: about it. In his childhood, Small supposedly had a squeaky voice. 106 00:07:15,920 --> 00:07:19,560 Speaker 1: He just was not what his dad was looking for 107 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:23,200 Speaker 1: in a son. I, as a father of sons who 108 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:27,239 Speaker 1: I adore, have a hard time believing there are parents 109 00:07:27,240 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 1: out there who disliked their children. Nevertheless, it is a 110 00:07:31,320 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 1: thing that happens. And then his father eventually ran out 111 00:07:33,720 --> 00:07:36,640 Speaker 1: on their family anyway. Like I said, not a great dude, 112 00:07:36,640 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: but raised in a military family, wants to come up 113 00:07:41,280 --> 00:07:43,720 Speaker 1: and join the Navy like his father wants to be 114 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:47,880 Speaker 1: a Navy man. Remember that whole Spanish American war thing 115 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:52,760 Speaker 1: we just brought up. We fought Spain in Cuba. Yeah, 116 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: once that war was over, Spain was virtually wiped out, 117 00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 1: completely wiped out. They lost like all their calls. Their 118 00:08:01,200 --> 00:08:08,360 Speaker 1: economy was contracting complete turmoil. Money wasn't there. Navies more 119 00:08:08,440 --> 00:08:14,200 Speaker 1: than armies cost money, lots of it. Their navy was 120 00:08:14,320 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: full on officers. They said, sorry, buddy, we are full. 121 00:08:18,120 --> 00:08:19,880 Speaker 1: You gotta go join the army if you want to 122 00:08:19,920 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: be in the military. And he does. He joins them. 123 00:08:23,680 --> 00:08:29,240 Speaker 1: He joins the army. He is the very Dictionary definition 124 00:08:29,880 --> 00:08:34,440 Speaker 1: of unimpressive early on, but he's gonna change that. He 125 00:08:34,520 --> 00:08:37,160 Speaker 1: shows up in a military academy. Like I said, I 126 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,000 Speaker 1: believe that guy was five to four. I may have 127 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:41,679 Speaker 1: that wrong, but he was short, squeaky voice. I mean 128 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,240 Speaker 1: five to four, you're practically a woman. I'll quit. We 129 00:08:44,280 --> 00:08:48,080 Speaker 1: can make jokes, Chris, But he's five four, shows up 130 00:08:48,120 --> 00:08:51,640 Speaker 1: in a military academy, he is routinely abused by his 131 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:57,680 Speaker 1: fellow cadets. He sucks at math. He finishes like two 132 00:08:57,880 --> 00:09:00,400 Speaker 1: hundredth in his class. It may have been two hundred fifty. 133 00:09:00,440 --> 00:09:03,640 Speaker 1: It was bad. It wasn't you know how I finished 134 00:09:03,640 --> 00:09:06,640 Speaker 1: in high school. That's kind of how Francisco Franco finished 135 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:09,400 Speaker 1: in his class. I was in the top two thirds 136 00:09:09,400 --> 00:09:11,840 Speaker 1: of my glass Griz. Not to brag or anything like that. 137 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 1: He wants combat, but they're not going to send a 138 00:09:18,400 --> 00:09:22,360 Speaker 1: young officer to combat anywhere. Now, why does he want combat. 139 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:26,199 Speaker 1: Is he a bloodthirsty monster. No, he wants to advance. 140 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:29,680 Speaker 1: He is an ambitious human being who wants to advance. 141 00:09:29,800 --> 00:09:31,719 Speaker 1: And the only way you can do that when your 142 00:09:31,760 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 1: ranks two hundred and fiftieth in your class is through combat. 143 00:09:35,440 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: They don't give it to him. They send him to 144 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:42,079 Speaker 1: some little jerkwater garrison over in his hometown, and he just, 145 00:09:43,800 --> 00:09:45,960 Speaker 1: you know, there's something to be said for this. He 146 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,840 Speaker 1: just takes that little bit of responsibility he's been given 147 00:09:50,360 --> 00:09:55,199 Speaker 1: and goes all in, making sure he does the best 148 00:09:55,360 --> 00:10:01,760 Speaker 1: job humanly possible, all in. And I'll tell you this 149 00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:04,000 Speaker 1: as a quick side note, not to get distracted from 150 00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 1: my story. I have known so many extremely wealthy people 151 00:10:10,120 --> 00:10:15,480 Speaker 1: in my lifetime that got their start because of things 152 00:10:16,040 --> 00:10:20,400 Speaker 1: like that, because of you know that whole story. He 153 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,040 Speaker 1: started out in the mail room and did a great job. 154 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:26,760 Speaker 1: That stuff's real. That stuff happens all the time. I 155 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:29,200 Speaker 1: will tell you, well, you know what, I'm gonna give 156 00:10:29,240 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 1: me a little career tip here, and then we'll continue 157 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:36,640 Speaker 1: on with Francisco Franco and two hundred businesses are about 158 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:53,880 Speaker 1: to get called out on today's show.

A public service announcement 176 00:11:53,120 --> 00:12:17,240 Speaker 1: brought to you by AARP and the Council. I am 177 00:12:17,280 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: excited to hear, well maybe a little bit terrified to 178 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:24,160 Speaker 1: hear what b K is bringing us in the third 179 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:28,079 Speaker 1: hour of this show today. Just hang onto your chairs 180 00:12:28,160 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 1: for that one. Remember you can find you on social 181 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:37,520 Speaker 1: media at Jesse Kelly DC on Twitter, Instagram, I'm on Facebook, 182 00:12:37,920 --> 00:12:40,640 Speaker 1: I'm on locals. I'm really starting to post more on 183 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:44,760 Speaker 1: locals because they can't get me on locals. That's why 184 00:12:44,960 --> 00:12:49,839 Speaker 1: it's awesome. All right, here's a little employment tip. Because 185 00:12:49,880 --> 00:12:54,160 Speaker 1: Francisco Franco gets some little jerkwater assignment fresh out of 186 00:12:54,200 --> 00:13:00,640 Speaker 1: the army academy, he digs in, he kills it. Here's 187 00:13:00,679 --> 00:13:08,679 Speaker 1: a fact companies like to hire internally almost always. If 188 00:13:08,800 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 1: you you're at some entry level job and it sucks, 189 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,360 Speaker 1: and don't let anybody tell you otherwise, Ah, you should 190 00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:21,600 Speaker 1: just be happy sweeping the floors. That sucks. I don't 191 00:13:21,640 --> 00:13:24,280 Speaker 1: expect you to be happy doing it. But if you 192 00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,679 Speaker 1: wear a smile on your face while you do it, 193 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:31,800 Speaker 1: and you kill it, you can move up. You will 194 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 1: move up. Do something good with the small stuff. Trust 195 00:13:36,559 --> 00:13:41,000 Speaker 1: me on that. All right. Franco kills it at his 196 00:13:41,040 --> 00:13:45,119 Speaker 1: little garrison after only a very short time. His commanders 197 00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: at the garrison are noticing this short, squeaky, squeaky voice 198 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: dude is pretty squared away. You know what, Let's give 199 00:13:52,960 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: him a combat assignment. They send him to Morocco. Now 200 00:13:57,400 --> 00:14:02,040 Speaker 1: full disclosure. I know very little about Morocco other than 201 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,720 Speaker 1: the fact it sounds really kind of cool and exotic. 202 00:14:04,760 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 1: It maybe a total dump, but it maybe it sounds awesome, 203 00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:09,560 Speaker 1: and it sounds like a place where you can get 204 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 1: a good cup of coffee. That's all I'm saying. But 205 00:14:13,160 --> 00:14:16,840 Speaker 1: it was a very rebellious wild place at this time, 206 00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:20,200 Speaker 1: and Spain still had control of it. But what I 207 00:14:20,240 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 1: say control of it, there were constant rebellions breaking out. 208 00:14:23,960 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 1: You go to Morocco, you're going to kill people and 209 00:14:27,080 --> 00:14:31,359 Speaker 1: possibly be killed. They send this young officer to Morocco, 210 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:35,360 Speaker 1: and the dude just turns out to be a beast. 211 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:41,280 Speaker 1: This little runt is a warrior, total lion, always leading 212 00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:45,400 Speaker 1: from the front, leading his men squared away. He won 213 00:14:45,440 --> 00:14:49,080 Speaker 1: a medal from charging up some hill, gets shot in 214 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:53,520 Speaker 1: the liver. He almost got another medal and a promotion 215 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:56,440 Speaker 1: at one point in time, but he was too young 216 00:14:56,640 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 1: to be eligible to receive the awards. This dude, this 217 00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:04,920 Speaker 1: dude turns out. You start, you start shooting at him. 218 00:15:05,120 --> 00:15:10,720 Speaker 1: He turns into his best self. Nineteen twenty three. Now 219 00:15:10,800 --> 00:15:14,800 Speaker 1: back in Spain, let's leave Francisco Franco alone for a moment. 220 00:15:14,920 --> 00:15:18,240 Speaker 1: Nineteen twenty three, a general takes over in Spain. His 221 00:15:18,320 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 1: name is Primo de rivera total idiot. Let me set 222 00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:27,040 Speaker 1: up the political situation in Spain. The monarchy's dawn. The 223 00:15:27,080 --> 00:15:31,640 Speaker 1: monarchies crumbled. They then went through this long series, I mean, 224 00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:34,760 Speaker 1: more than I could even list for you of revolts 225 00:15:34,800 --> 00:15:39,680 Speaker 1: and rebellions and military coups. Because remember when nations crumble, 226 00:15:40,200 --> 00:15:45,440 Speaker 1: generals generally did it again, Chris, Generals generally take over. 227 00:15:45,960 --> 00:15:49,600 Speaker 1: They look around and think, well, I'm not exactly sure 228 00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:51,720 Speaker 1: what's gonna stop me from just stepping into the big 229 00:15:51,760 --> 00:15:54,680 Speaker 1: boy chair. But then they take over. Then another general 230 00:15:54,760 --> 00:15:59,040 Speaker 1: gets them. Just Spain is a disaster, disaster they cannot 231 00:15:59,040 --> 00:16:04,440 Speaker 1: figure out their government. So what else happens about the 232 00:16:04,560 --> 00:16:08,440 Speaker 1: nineteen thirties? As Franco is out there fighting and getting promoted, 233 00:16:09,160 --> 00:16:11,240 Speaker 1: I should say, the guy ended up being the youngest 234 00:16:11,640 --> 00:16:15,480 Speaker 1: general in Spain at thirty three. This dude was a general. 235 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:20,960 Speaker 1: The nineteen thirties brought the Great Depression. The Great Depression 236 00:16:21,360 --> 00:16:24,360 Speaker 1: did not just hit the United States of America, we 237 00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:28,800 Speaker 1: understandably only associated with that, but it brought the Great 238 00:16:28,800 --> 00:16:34,440 Speaker 1: Depression in Europe too. Well, here's the thing about communism, 239 00:16:35,160 --> 00:16:41,480 Speaker 1: nineteen thirties. Communism was still young enough to be appealing 240 00:16:41,640 --> 00:16:45,720 Speaker 1: at this point in time, although most countries, especially US, 241 00:16:45,720 --> 00:16:48,000 Speaker 1: were very wary of it, it was young enough to 242 00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:52,880 Speaker 1: be appealing, and communism gets a lot more appealing if 243 00:16:52,920 --> 00:16:57,240 Speaker 1: you're starving to death, your government is corrupt, and then 244 00:16:57,320 --> 00:17:00,560 Speaker 1: you get the message about this wonderful new form of 245 00:17:00,640 --> 00:17:03,320 Speaker 1: government that will come in and take from those dirty 246 00:17:03,360 --> 00:17:06,920 Speaker 1: guys and give it to you and make everything equal. 247 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:12,840 Speaker 1: We need some equity out here. There's a huge election, 248 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:15,720 Speaker 1: and I'm skipping over all kinds of turmoil, but there's 249 00:17:15,760 --> 00:17:20,160 Speaker 1: a huge election in nineteen thirty six, and the two 250 00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:23,320 Speaker 1: factions are this. There are and this is the last 251 00:17:23,359 --> 00:17:25,280 Speaker 1: time I'm going to use this word because it gets 252 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:29,240 Speaker 1: confusing to who's who. There are the Republicans, only those 253 00:17:29,280 --> 00:17:33,200 Speaker 1: are like the communists, and then there are the nationalists, 254 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:35,760 Speaker 1: and that would be the side Franco was on. But 255 00:17:36,040 --> 00:17:39,679 Speaker 1: understand this, leading up to this point, Franco is not 256 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 1: a heavily political guy. He's definitely a nationalist. He is 257 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:46,639 Speaker 1: a devout Catholic, and the Communists, obviously one of the 258 00:17:46,680 --> 00:17:48,720 Speaker 1: first things they want to do is go after that stuff. 259 00:17:48,760 --> 00:17:51,639 Speaker 1: So he needs a devout Catholic. He believes in the 260 00:17:51,680 --> 00:17:55,119 Speaker 1: traditions of Spain, bull fighting things like that. Like he 261 00:17:55,280 --> 00:17:58,040 Speaker 1: is a cultural dude. He wants to prefer he wants 262 00:17:58,040 --> 00:18:00,880 Speaker 1: to preserve Spain's culture. But really he's just a general 263 00:18:01,119 --> 00:18:05,080 Speaker 1: only really saw himself as a military man. Nineteen thirty 264 00:18:05,119 --> 00:18:10,640 Speaker 1: six election comes. It is between the Communists and the nationalists. 265 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:17,600 Speaker 1: The world is watching, and the Communists win. But here's 266 00:18:17,640 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 1: the thing about that election. You know how they say 267 00:18:21,800 --> 00:18:25,040 Speaker 1: history repeats itself. It's an old saying. I mean, shoot, 268 00:18:25,080 --> 00:18:27,800 Speaker 1: it's the base theme for why I opened every single 269 00:18:27,840 --> 00:18:31,440 Speaker 1: show with the history story. Funny thing happened in that election. 270 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,760 Speaker 1: It was a nail biter, completely up in the air, 271 00:18:37,520 --> 00:18:40,359 Speaker 1: and when it looked like it was going to be 272 00:18:40,400 --> 00:18:45,679 Speaker 1: a tie, some left wing mobs started attacking some of 273 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:50,800 Speaker 1: the voting places and changing the ballots, and it turned 274 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:54,880 Speaker 1: out a crooked election with some election fraud gave an 275 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 1: election win to the communists and took it away from 276 00:18:57,400 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 1: the nationalists. Weird how that can happen somewhere right, Very weird. 277 00:19:04,840 --> 00:19:10,080 Speaker 1: But communists are all the same. They always are. Remember 278 00:19:10,119 --> 00:19:14,680 Speaker 1: it's a religion of domination. They're always the same. When 279 00:19:14,720 --> 00:19:20,520 Speaker 1: the leftists take over. When the communists take over, there's 280 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:24,080 Speaker 1: not a hand extended to the other side to try 281 00:19:24,119 --> 00:19:29,560 Speaker 1: to bridge this gap in the country. Communists don't do that. 282 00:19:29,920 --> 00:19:34,160 Speaker 1: They don't extend hands. They extend a pistol. That's what 283 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:37,040 Speaker 1: communists do. This is a direct quote from their leader, 284 00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:42,919 Speaker 1: one of their leaders quote, the organized proletariat will carry 285 00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:47,280 Speaker 1: everything before it and destroy everything until we reach our goal. 286 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:52,000 Speaker 1: Direct quote, public quote, straight from their mouths. They take 287 00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 1: over all of it and they lock down power. But 288 00:19:57,320 --> 00:20:00,520 Speaker 1: here's the thing about communism. On top of the evil, 289 00:20:00,600 --> 00:20:02,720 Speaker 1: the misery, the death. I mean, we talk about it 290 00:20:02,760 --> 00:20:04,399 Speaker 1: all the time. You listen to my show, so you 291 00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 1: know all about it, it just doesn't work. When it 292 00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 1: comes down to it, it doesn't work. And they've tried 293 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,560 Speaker 1: everything to make it work. You've tried killing all the 294 00:20:16,560 --> 00:20:19,680 Speaker 1: critics of it. You've tried killing all the quote non 295 00:20:19,720 --> 00:20:23,000 Speaker 1: productive people. Remember when Mao went through and just basically 296 00:20:23,119 --> 00:20:25,160 Speaker 1: killed all the pregnant people and old people and kids. 297 00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 1: Or you're not meeting your farm quote is you got 298 00:20:26,960 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 1: to go. You can't make it work. Nothing makes communism 299 00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:36,679 Speaker 1: work because it works against human nature. If you're in 300 00:20:36,720 --> 00:20:40,560 Speaker 1: the middle of a depression and communists take over your country. 301 00:20:41,240 --> 00:20:44,880 Speaker 1: You're about to be in very, very, very serious trouble. 302 00:20:45,800 --> 00:20:50,040 Speaker 1: So what's Franco doing at this time? Well, here's the thing. 303 00:20:51,400 --> 00:20:55,280 Speaker 1: The communists who took over the government. Yes, they went 304 00:20:55,320 --> 00:20:58,359 Speaker 1: after a bunch of people on the right. They just 305 00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,680 Speaker 1: flat out sacked a bunch of the generals. And they 306 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 1: knew Francisco Franco was a nationalist. But remember this is 307 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:10,080 Speaker 1: not a heavily political guy. Yet they didn't trust him. 308 00:21:10,520 --> 00:21:12,920 Speaker 1: But you can't really get rid of the best officer 309 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 1: in the military either. You kind of want to keep 310 00:21:15,600 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 1: him around. So they banished him to some jerkwater post 311 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:23,240 Speaker 1: in the Canary Islands. Just just go run this, which 312 00:21:23,280 --> 00:21:28,520 Speaker 1: he was horribly offended by. But they're not just going 313 00:21:28,600 --> 00:21:32,600 Speaker 1: to stop there, right, That's not how communists work. I 314 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:35,080 Speaker 1: will try to wrap up this story because we have 315 00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 1: a ton to get to today, including two hundred businesses 316 00:21:38,760 --> 00:21:53,760 Speaker 1: you and I now have to avoid. Hang on, your 317 00:21:53,800 --> 00:21:59,080 Speaker 1: blood pressure is really, really, really important. I know this 318 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,399 Speaker 1: because I've had these lectures from my wife for a 319 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:06,159 Speaker 1: long time. You see, high blood pressure runs in my family, 320 00:22:06,720 --> 00:22:11,399 Speaker 1: and I'm approaching forty rapidly here just a few months away. 321 00:22:11,960 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 1: I have to watch my blood pressure. But as you know, 322 00:22:15,640 --> 00:22:19,520 Speaker 1: as you well know, I hate pills, hate them. I 323 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:21,840 Speaker 1: hate medication. I'll take it if I have to, but 324 00:22:21,880 --> 00:22:26,520 Speaker 1: I hate it. I take super Beats.

To my horror, 334 00:23:19,119 --> 00:23:21,880 Speaker 1: I discovered it in the files where people were doomed 335 00:23:22,119 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 1: to execution. There were names of pro Soviet journalists with 336 00:23:26,840 --> 00:23:32,360 Speaker 1: whom I was personally friendly. Yes, they were idealistically minded 337 00:23:32,480 --> 00:23:37,199 Speaker 1: leftists who made several visits to USSR. And yet the 338 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:41,200 Speaker 1: KGB decided that calm revolution or drastic changes in political 339 00:23:41,240 --> 00:23:44,760 Speaker 1: structure of India, they will have to go. Why is that? 340 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 1: Because they know too much simply because it's the useful idiots, 341 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:54,199 Speaker 1: the leftists who are idealistically believing in the beauty of 342 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:59,000 Speaker 1: Soviet socialists or communists or whatever system. When they get dissillusion, 343 00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,960 Speaker 1: they become the worst enemies. That's why my kgb BE 344 00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:07,240 Speaker 1: instructors specifically made a point never bother the leftists. Forget 345 00:24:07,280 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 1: about these political prostitutes. Aim higher. This was my instruction. 346 00:24:12,440 --> 00:24:19,520 Speaker 1: Try to get into large circulation established conservative media reach 347 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:25,240 Speaker 1: feel for each moviemakers, intellectuals, so called academic circles, cynical, 348 00:24:25,359 --> 00:24:28,480 Speaker 1: ecocentric people who can look into your eyes with angelic 349 00:24:28,520 --> 00:24:32,639 Speaker 1: expression until you're a lie. This are the most recruitable people. 350 00:24:32,720 --> 00:24:36,320 Speaker 1: People who lack moral principles, who are either too greedy 351 00:24:37,040 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 1: or to suffer from self importance. They feel that they 352 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:45,080 Speaker 1: matter a lot, can never get enough. Yuri, don't worry. 353 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:46,439 Speaker 1: You know what. I'm gonna play you the rest of 354 00:24:46,440 --> 00:24:47,800 Speaker 1: it later on in the show. But I have to 355 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:50,280 Speaker 1: get back to my story. But man, I'll tell you 356 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:52,760 Speaker 1: what that stuff HiT's um all right? Eight seven seven 357 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:56,359 Speaker 1: three seven seven four three seven three Jesse at Jesse 358 00:24:56,520 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 1: Kelly show dot com. They banish Franco to One Island, 359 00:25:01,040 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 1: well to the Canary Islands to be specific. But Franco 360 00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:09,159 Speaker 1: starts to meet with other generals. And when I say meets, 361 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:12,760 Speaker 1: I mean meets by personal courier, because the leftists and 362 00:25:12,840 --> 00:25:16,320 Speaker 1: the government have him followed and have his phone tapped. 363 00:25:16,680 --> 00:25:21,520 Speaker 1: These are people who have total control, but not total 364 00:25:21,560 --> 00:25:26,119 Speaker 1: military control. And the other generals, most of the generals 365 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 1: and the nation at this time, they're nationalists. They love Spain, 366 00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:36,199 Speaker 1: Communists taking over during a great depression. This is not 367 00:25:36,320 --> 00:25:41,120 Speaker 1: going well. What else happens, Not that anything like this 368 00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:45,920 Speaker 1: whatever happened here, but a leftist Scots shot, a leftist 369 00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:51,480 Speaker 1: lieutenant gets shot, gets killed. The leftists, the communists used 370 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:55,640 Speaker 1: that as an excuse to begin cracking down on their 371 00:25:55,760 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 1: political opponents. Not that a big violent event could ever 372 00:26:01,080 --> 00:26:04,320 Speaker 1: happen here, that would that the left would use as 373 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:07,639 Speaker 1: an excuse to crack down on the right. It would never. 374 00:26:07,840 --> 00:26:09,960 Speaker 1: It's not like they're gonna it's not like they're gonna 375 00:26:10,000 --> 00:26:12,840 Speaker 1: deem you an I domestic terrorists. Don't worry about it. 376 00:26:13,320 --> 00:26:18,480 Speaker 1: Don't worry about it. Well, now it goes off because 377 00:26:18,480 --> 00:26:20,239 Speaker 1: as soon as they start cracking down on the right. 378 00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:24,400 Speaker 1: Remember half the country at least was nationalist anyway, then 379 00:26:24,480 --> 00:26:30,640 Speaker 1: it's on. They decide, let's get it done. Franco again, 380 00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:34,000 Speaker 1: to his credit, it's not as if he charged right 381 00:26:34,000 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 1: to the forefront and said I am leading the charge. 382 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:41,440 Speaker 1: I want to be dictator. The guys around him said, Franco, 383 00:26:41,560 --> 00:26:43,199 Speaker 1: we really want you to be in charge of this 384 00:26:43,240 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 1: whole thing. And here's the thing about life, and they 385 00:26:49,640 --> 00:26:52,000 Speaker 1: say this about this Spanish civil war, it's about to 386 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:59,680 Speaker 1: kick off. You had to choose a side. That didn't 387 00:26:59,680 --> 00:27:05,080 Speaker 1: mean you had to love everything about your side. But 388 00:27:05,240 --> 00:27:09,439 Speaker 1: when there is a civil war like this, a war 389 00:27:09,600 --> 00:27:13,200 Speaker 1: between two factions and only two factions of a nation, 390 00:27:14,760 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 1: and here in the real world, one of those two 391 00:27:18,200 --> 00:27:22,360 Speaker 1: sides is going to win. And when that side wins, 392 00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,120 Speaker 1: every part of their agenda is going to be put 393 00:27:26,160 --> 00:27:28,880 Speaker 1: into place. One of the first things the Communists did, 394 00:27:29,000 --> 00:27:34,680 Speaker 1: unsurprisingly Spanish Spain was obviously a hugely Catholic nation. Completely. 395 00:27:34,760 --> 00:27:38,480 Speaker 1: This went after the Catholic churches, the Catholic schools, the 396 00:27:38,560 --> 00:27:42,399 Speaker 1: Catholic charities. They just did. It was really really ugly. 397 00:27:42,920 --> 00:27:47,840 Speaker 1: Immediately tried to start eliminating all traditional parts of Spanish culture, 398 00:27:48,160 --> 00:27:52,239 Speaker 1: as Communists do every time, So you are forced to 399 00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:58,800 Speaker 1: choose between possibly your religion, your culture, anything else. You 400 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:01,880 Speaker 1: had to pick a side. He picked a side. He 401 00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:05,679 Speaker 1: picks a side. He goes to Morocco, picks up an army. 402 00:28:06,040 --> 00:28:08,920 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do a totally separate show at some point 403 00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,040 Speaker 1: in time on the Spanish Civil War, so I'm actually 404 00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 1: gonna gloss over it here. But just know this about 405 00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:18,400 Speaker 1: the Spanish Civil War. It was long, it was bloody. 406 00:28:19,119 --> 00:28:23,240 Speaker 1: There were extra judicial killings, tens of thousands of them 407 00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:27,200 Speaker 1: committed by each side. It was just one of those wars. 408 00:28:28,520 --> 00:28:34,560 Speaker 1: The Soviet Union, as you can imagine, was highly highly invested, 409 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:38,440 Speaker 1: and the Communists winning this fight. So they start throwing 410 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:42,800 Speaker 1: materials and things at the Communists so they can win. Well, 411 00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 1: Francisco Franco needs friends. And this is going to sound 412 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:52,680 Speaker 1: like I'm making excuses for the man. It is what 413 00:28:52,840 --> 00:28:58,440 Speaker 1: it is. Francisco Franco, when he's looking for anti communist friends, 414 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 1: finds two really, really receptive sets of ears in Europe 415 00:29:03,920 --> 00:29:06,880 Speaker 1: at this time in the late nineteen thirties. Do you 416 00:29:06,960 --> 00:29:10,720 Speaker 1: see where I'm going with this. One man's name was 417 00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:16,560 Speaker 1: Benito Mussolini. The other man's name was Adolf Hitler. These 418 00:29:16,600 --> 00:29:22,000 Speaker 1: two men, Mussolini and Hitler hated communists. They were very 419 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,440 Speaker 1: pro fascist. As you can imagine, they were both fascists themselves. 420 00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:30,000 Speaker 1: They liked the idea of a fascist dictator in Spain 421 00:29:30,440 --> 00:29:36,560 Speaker 1: who would owe them big time. Soon Francisco Franco's army 422 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:45,640 Speaker 1: flying German planes, drive in German tanks, winning they win 423 00:29:46,040 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 1: this civil war. Well, now you've got total power of 424 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:56,200 Speaker 1: you're Francisco Franco. And remember how Spain was always a monarchy. 425 00:29:56,440 --> 00:29:59,240 Speaker 1: They were a monarchy really with the parliament, though there 426 00:29:59,280 --> 00:30:02,000 Speaker 1: were there were other powerful people. They say, when Franco 427 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:04,680 Speaker 1: took over, he was the most powerful person in the 428 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:07,560 Speaker 1: history of Spain. There was no nothing. It was. It 429 00:30:07,640 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 1: was ruling by decree. And you can decide whether you 430 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 1: like this or not. Franco immediately returned Spain to its roots. 431 00:30:19,880 --> 00:30:22,520 Speaker 1: We are a Catholic nation that as a state religion. 432 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 1: It wasn't as if, I should say, to his credit, 433 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:29,280 Speaker 1: it wasn't as if he brutally oppressed others. Although he 434 00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:32,480 Speaker 1: was kind of an anti Semite, wasn't big on the 435 00:30:32,480 --> 00:30:35,640 Speaker 1: whole Protestant thing. So Chris and I would both be screwed. 436 00:30:36,360 --> 00:30:40,120 Speaker 1: But that was the roots of Spain, was Catholicism, return 437 00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:45,960 Speaker 1: them to that returned them to normal things. He sorry, ladies, 438 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 1: he was not huge on women being really in charge 439 00:30:50,640 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 1: of anything, and would I say, not huge on it. 440 00:30:55,680 --> 00:30:58,000 Speaker 1: You were not allowed to be like a college professor 441 00:30:58,040 --> 00:30:59,680 Speaker 1: if you were a woman. No no, no, no no no. 442 00:30:59,800 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 1: You can maybe teach some kids. We don't really need 443 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:07,680 Speaker 1: you in charge of anything. For most of his career 444 00:31:07,800 --> 00:31:10,880 Speaker 1: as a dictator, a woman, in order to have a 445 00:31:10,960 --> 00:31:14,720 Speaker 1: bank account had to have either her husband or her 446 00:31:14,760 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 1: father co sign on it with her. I love this guy. 447 00:31:19,320 --> 00:31:24,840 Speaker 1: I'll quit, Chris. We can make jokes. A very traditional man, 448 00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:28,520 Speaker 1: very anti divorce, very I mean he is. He is 449 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:33,600 Speaker 1: your stern father. That's who he was. And yes there 450 00:31:33,800 --> 00:31:38,560 Speaker 1: was some oppression, there was some death, but not a 451 00:31:38,560 --> 00:31:41,400 Speaker 1: ton of it. After he took over, he just simply 452 00:31:41,440 --> 00:31:46,120 Speaker 1: returned Spain back to what he thought Spain should be. Now, 453 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:53,720 Speaker 1: World War two breaks out, and now we have an 454 00:31:53,720 --> 00:32:00,200 Speaker 1: interesting scenario here. He owes Adolf Hitler, he owed us 455 00:32:00,280 --> 00:32:05,400 Speaker 1: Benito Mussolini. But he's got a couple of things going on. One, 456 00:32:06,000 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 1: Spain is in a really rough spot financially, militarily. They 457 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:12,760 Speaker 1: just went through a long civil war, you know, civil 458 00:32:12,800 --> 00:32:15,000 Speaker 1: wars are never profitable. It's all coming out of the 459 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:18,080 Speaker 1: same treasury. He's got to make a choice here in 460 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:21,480 Speaker 1: World War Two. You can decide for yourself if he 461 00:32:21,560 --> 00:32:42,960 Speaker 1: made the right one. In just a second, this is 462 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: a Jesse Kelly show.

World War two breaks out. Hitler wants him involved, 496 00:35:10,520 --> 00:35:15,360 Speaker 1: Mussolini wants him involved. Hey, we're kind of taking on 497 00:35:15,480 --> 00:35:18,640 Speaker 1: everybody here. Would you like to help? Like remember when 498 00:35:18,640 --> 00:35:24,640 Speaker 1: we helped you, and Franco keeps stringing them along. He 499 00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:27,960 Speaker 1: can't really help. He wants to be on the winning 500 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:29,759 Speaker 1: end of it. He thinks they're gonna be on the 501 00:35:29,800 --> 00:35:32,720 Speaker 1: winning end of it, and he kind of hats Jews too, 502 00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 1: but he doesn't want to actually kill anybody out there. 503 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:40,640 Speaker 1: He's worried about Spain right now. He's trying to rebuild Spain. 504 00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:44,680 Speaker 1: I'm not, oh Holocaust, Yeah, you're gonna have to do 505 00:35:44,719 --> 00:35:47,319 Speaker 1: that on your own. I'm out on that. I'm out 506 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:52,200 Speaker 1: on that. But the world knew that was the side 507 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:57,760 Speaker 1: he was very friendly with. And at one point Britain 508 00:35:58,280 --> 00:36:01,640 Speaker 1: they land in Morocco. Spain is still running at this 509 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:03,360 Speaker 1: point in time, and they tell him, hey, we're not 510 00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:06,160 Speaker 1: here for you, We're just look, we're doing some stuff 511 00:36:06,200 --> 00:36:09,239 Speaker 1: to them. You just stay out of it. This angers him, 512 00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:11,799 Speaker 1: but he does stay out of it. I'm just he 513 00:36:11,880 --> 00:36:15,600 Speaker 1: really wants to be out of it. World War two ends, 514 00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:19,080 Speaker 1: and there's no way. I mean, there are going to 515 00:36:19,120 --> 00:36:21,000 Speaker 1: be people listening to my voice right now who are 516 00:36:21,000 --> 00:36:23,040 Speaker 1: old enough to know this, but there's no way for 517 00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:27,160 Speaker 1: most people right now to understand a fully grasp myself 518 00:36:27,200 --> 00:36:33,560 Speaker 1: included how much of a pariah. Germany was the axis 519 00:36:33,640 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 1: powers were After World War Two, when the death camps 520 00:36:37,719 --> 00:36:43,560 Speaker 1: were discovered, the world was rightly horrified. I mean, the 521 00:36:43,640 --> 00:36:47,120 Speaker 1: world had never heard of anything like that before. And remember, 522 00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:49,240 Speaker 1: for most of the war, we didn't know what was happening. 523 00:36:49,440 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 1: You had little tidbits all of a sudden. It's I mean, 524 00:36:52,200 --> 00:36:54,360 Speaker 1: it's about more than just the war. The war was 525 00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:58,400 Speaker 1: bad enough, dude, Wait a minute, you're mass exterminating a 526 00:36:58,440 --> 00:37:01,920 Speaker 1: group of people. Wait what how many did you see? 527 00:37:02,840 --> 00:37:06,680 Speaker 1: Six million? And the people they discovered it was just 528 00:37:07,600 --> 00:37:12,520 Speaker 1: anybody associated with Nazism. With that, with that part of 529 00:37:12,560 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 1: the world, you were not going to have an easy 530 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:19,200 Speaker 1: time after. You want to talk about the ultimate scarlet letter. 531 00:37:20,040 --> 00:37:24,680 Speaker 1: And yeah, Francisco Franco and Spain they were neutral, really, 532 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:27,399 Speaker 1: they were a non belligerent they called them during the war, 533 00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 1: but he was still pals with Hitler. So the United 534 00:37:31,239 --> 00:37:36,640 Speaker 1: Nations forms right after World War Two, they don't invite Spain. 535 00:37:37,360 --> 00:37:43,239 Speaker 1: In fact, they they put sanctions on Spain. Spain is 536 00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:47,719 Speaker 1: hurting economically. Now you have sanctions down. Now you're in deep, 537 00:37:47,800 --> 00:37:51,120 Speaker 1: deep trouble as you're trying to hold this country together. 538 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:58,160 Speaker 1: And then the Cold war starts ramping up. And remember 539 00:37:58,480 --> 00:38:01,520 Speaker 1: Francisco Franco, whatever you think about his life by this 540 00:38:01,600 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 1: point in time, was a lot of things. But he 541 00:38:05,120 --> 00:38:09,239 Speaker 1: was an ardent anti communist, and God love him for that. 542 00:38:09,760 --> 00:38:13,120 Speaker 1: The Soviet Union came knocking too, Hey, we'd love you 543 00:38:13,200 --> 00:38:16,359 Speaker 1: on our side. Franco said, don't let the door hit 544 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:18,840 Speaker 1: you or the Good Lord split you. We don't do 545 00:38:19,000 --> 00:38:25,800 Speaker 1: communism here, you dirty, godless commies America. Dwight Eisenhower comes 546 00:38:25,840 --> 00:38:29,359 Speaker 1: and does the same thing. Hey, I don't like the 547 00:38:29,400 --> 00:38:33,359 Speaker 1: Soviet Union. We'd really really love it if you were 548 00:38:33,400 --> 00:38:36,239 Speaker 1: on our side. And this whole cool war thing. And 549 00:38:36,400 --> 00:38:39,600 Speaker 1: remember something, when you have deep pocketbooks, that helps when 550 00:38:39,640 --> 00:38:44,400 Speaker 1: you're making allies. The United States had deep pocketbooks. We 551 00:38:45,280 --> 00:38:49,840 Speaker 1: agree to something called the Pact of Madrid with Francisco 552 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:56,120 Speaker 1: Franco unleashing a wave of trade and military aid into 553 00:38:56,160 --> 00:39:02,040 Speaker 1: his country. At the same time, Franco hands over because 554 00:39:02,040 --> 00:39:04,440 Speaker 1: he had such tight control of the country, he hands 555 00:39:04,520 --> 00:39:10,400 Speaker 1: over control of the finances of the economy to other people. 556 00:39:10,880 --> 00:39:13,360 Speaker 1: And what he says is this, and this wasn't his idea. 557 00:39:13,440 --> 00:39:16,080 Speaker 1: He disagreed to it. Look, I don't want to control 558 00:39:16,120 --> 00:39:19,200 Speaker 1: this economy. I've been controlling this economy and it's not working. 559 00:39:19,640 --> 00:39:24,640 Speaker 1: Open it up. Let commerce flow, let's trade with the US, 560 00:39:24,760 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 1: let people, let's let other people in. Let's let tourists 561 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:29,960 Speaker 1: in here. Because it wasn't even a tourist guy. He 562 00:39:30,120 --> 00:39:32,759 Speaker 1: one of the first things was outlawing prostitution and things 563 00:39:32,800 --> 00:39:37,080 Speaker 1: like that. Let the tourists come. Come on. All of 564 00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:42,160 Speaker 1: a sudden, Spain explodes. It's called the Spanish miracle. The 565 00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:48,080 Speaker 1: economy opens up trade with the United States, Spain prospers 566 00:39:48,400 --> 00:39:53,640 Speaker 1: and stays prosperous until the day they finally put Francisco 567 00:39:53,680 --> 00:39:55,920 Speaker 1: Franco in the ground. He had all kinds of diseases 568 00:39:55,920 --> 00:39:58,759 Speaker 1: at the end, Parkinson's disease and everything else, but he 569 00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:02,279 Speaker 1: died finally as a total dictator, as an old man. 570 00:40:02,440 --> 00:40:05,239 Speaker 1: It is funny, though, the total dictator thing. Remember how 571 00:40:05,239 --> 00:40:07,400 Speaker 1: he wanted Spain to go back to being a monarchy. 572 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:11,160 Speaker 1: He actually had declared long before that Spain was a monarchy. 573 00:40:11,800 --> 00:40:14,359 Speaker 1: It just had a vacant throne at the time while 574 00:40:14,440 --> 00:40:16,840 Speaker 1: he was in charge. But he was going to appoint 575 00:40:16,880 --> 00:40:19,240 Speaker 1: somebody to take over his king after he was gone 576 00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:24,879 Speaker 1: down a boss.
