The 3 00:00:19,160 --> 00:00:23,160 Speaker 1: chances I'm going to refer to tonight as Wednesday at 4 00:00:23,200 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 1: some point in time are very very strong. Why I'm 5 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:30,200 Speaker 1: having one of those weeks where I'm a day behind 6 00:00:30,520 --> 00:00:32,519 Speaker 1: or a day ahead. Does it is that a day 7 00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:34,600 Speaker 1: behind or a day ahead Chris that it doesn't matter. 8 00:00:34,720 --> 00:00:37,479 Speaker 1: Let's focus on the task at hand, because we have 9 00:00:37,520 --> 00:00:41,199 Speaker 1: a ton to get to tonight. I know the big 10 00:00:41,240 --> 00:00:46,000 Speaker 1: story today is obviously the shooting, the New York shooting. 11 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:50,080 Speaker 1: I know that's the big story. I'm gonna tell you why. 12 00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 1: We're not going to talk that much about that. But 13 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 1: give me a second before I get to that. Lessons. 14 00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:57,680 Speaker 1: How important is it for you to learn lessons, me 15 00:00:57,800 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 1: to learn lessons, the government to earn lessons. It's very important. 16 00:01:00,840 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 1: We're going to talk about that. As inflation numbers have 17 00:01:03,160 --> 00:01:08,280 Speaker 1: come down, CNN egg all over their faces, as their 18 00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,800 Speaker 1: online streaming platform fails. We'll get to that. We have 19 00:01:11,840 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 1: the great Carol Markowitz coming up forty five minutes from now. 20 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:21,440 Speaker 1: We have more coronavirus stuff with Kamala Harris, the CDC teachers, unions, 21 00:01:21,920 --> 00:01:25,119 Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerberg, and the system. We're gonna have some fun, 22 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: read some emails. All that is coming up tonight on 23 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 1: The Jesse Kelly Show. But I want to begin here. 24 00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:36,880 Speaker 1: As you survey the United States of America in our 25 00:01:37,120 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 1: current state, especially if you're older, do you lament the 26 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:46,640 Speaker 1: fact that we are such a divided nation? And I 27 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:48,400 Speaker 1: don't mean, I don't mean, you know, you know, we 28 00:01:48,800 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: support the divide here on this show. We want to 29 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,240 Speaker 1: be divided from people who mutilate children. We want that divide, 30 00:01:54,280 --> 00:01:57,000 Speaker 1: but the nation as a whole, when you look at 31 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 1: how separated we are, are you sad about that? Mad 32 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 1: about that? Most people are? Look, I am right, I 33 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:07,720 Speaker 1: would how much would you kill to live in a 34 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:12,600 Speaker 1: country where the opposition party was JFK? I mean, even 35 00:02:12,720 --> 00:02:15,280 Speaker 1: Bill Clinton, as big of a scumbag as he was, 36 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,519 Speaker 1: and I know he was bad. Even Bill Clinton wasn't 37 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 1: that bad, right, And in the end he had to moderate. 38 00:02:21,320 --> 00:02:24,920 Speaker 1: And it's just it wasn't that bad. And that was 39 00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:28,000 Speaker 1: like ten minutes ago. It wasn't that bad. But now 40 00:02:28,800 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 1: it's really bad. And the sides are not only divided, 41 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:36,639 Speaker 1: they hate each other. And you you're probably mad about that, 42 00:02:36,720 --> 00:02:38,360 Speaker 1: or at least sad about that. And I'll be honest 43 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:40,360 Speaker 1: with you, I am I don't want to live in 44 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:43,399 Speaker 1: that kind of place. We do doesn't do any good 45 00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,519 Speaker 1: sitting around crying about it, but I don't want to 46 00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,760 Speaker 1: live in that kind of a place. But why, why, 47 00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:54,360 Speaker 1: why did that happen? And how did that happen so fast? Well, 48 00:02:54,520 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 1: let's talk about this shooting today, or more specifically, let's 49 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 1: talk about the reaction to the shooting today. You see, 50 00:03:02,120 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: today there was a mass shooting. We have had them 51 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: before in this country. We will have them again in 52 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 1: this country. It is inevitable. It is awful, unspeakably awful, 53 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 1: but it is sadly inevitable. That is just the cost 54 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 1: of doing business in a country of three hundred and 55 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 1: thirty million people. That's the way it is. And in 56 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:30,360 Speaker 1: the wake of something terrible happening, it is critical for 57 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:35,720 Speaker 1: a community to come together and mourn. Do you ever 58 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 1: read that Bible verse, or at least you know of it. 59 00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:40,560 Speaker 1: There's a time for everything, time to love, time to 60 00:03:40,600 --> 00:03:42,560 Speaker 1: hate time. You know, they made that really terrible song 61 00:03:42,600 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: about it, but it's still a great Bible verse. But 62 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: you understand the human mind. The human experience does come 63 00:03:51,440 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: with different seasons. There's a different season for everything. There 64 00:03:55,320 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 1: is a time to make war, there is a time 65 00:03:57,320 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: to make peace, and there is a time to mourn. 66 00:04:02,640 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 1: It's important that you mourn. It's important that I'm worn 67 00:04:06,840 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: if look, we don't even have to make it about 68 00:04:09,800 --> 00:04:12,120 Speaker 1: a person, because it's tough enough. Day. I realized that 69 00:04:13,080 --> 00:04:16,600 Speaker 1: if your dog dies, your cat, if you lastually love 70 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,800 Speaker 1: your cat, but if your dog dies, you're going to 71 00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:24,760 Speaker 1: be sad. And you know what, that's okay, and you 72 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:29,039 Speaker 1: don't you know what else, It's okay to just sit 73 00:04:29,120 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: there and be sad for a while. Maybe your sister's sad, husband, 74 00:04:33,720 --> 00:04:37,560 Speaker 1: wife's sad. It's okay to be sad together. I fully 75 00:04:37,600 --> 00:04:41,279 Speaker 1: admit I'm not a very emotional person. I'm not a 76 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:44,760 Speaker 1: big crier. But if you can work up some tears 77 00:04:45,240 --> 00:04:47,720 Speaker 1: and have a good cry with your spouse or your 78 00:04:47,800 --> 00:04:54,120 Speaker 1: kids about it, that's actually healthy. It's healthy. It's part 79 00:04:54,160 --> 00:04:58,560 Speaker 1: of the reason cultures all throughout history have had various 80 00:04:58,640 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 1: funeral services, wakes and things like that. Give family, give 81 00:05:03,960 --> 00:05:09,320 Speaker 1: friends together. Let's have some food, have some fellowship, and 82 00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:14,839 Speaker 1: be sad together. That's not just a meaningless thing that 83 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:19,600 Speaker 1: is a critical part of the human experience. When happy 84 00:05:19,680 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 1: things happen, we get together and we celebrate together. And 85 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:28,359 Speaker 1: when sad things happen, terrible things happen, we come together, 86 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:33,240 Speaker 1: support each other, and we mourn together. If you want 87 00:05:33,240 --> 00:05:35,480 Speaker 1: to know why, I'm not going to open the show 88 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:39,679 Speaker 1: talking about the shooting, or more specifically, I'm not gonna 89 00:05:39,760 --> 00:05:42,159 Speaker 1: dwell on the shooting. And this is the shooter, and 90 00:05:42,200 --> 00:05:44,159 Speaker 1: this is what it a gunna use, and this is 91 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:46,680 Speaker 1: why it matters for my politics, and this is why 92 00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 1: it matters for your politics. I do not ever stand 93 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:58,279 Speaker 1: on the warm, dead bodies to make political points, specifically 94 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: because of the families who have just lost someone or 95 00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:06,760 Speaker 1: are losing someone. If that was my son in a 96 00:06:06,839 --> 00:06:10,200 Speaker 1: New York City subway who ended up with bullet holes 97 00:06:10,240 --> 00:06:13,720 Speaker 1: in his body, I don't care from the left or right. 98 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:17,120 Speaker 1: I don't want to hear your political points today. You 99 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,560 Speaker 1: know what I want to hear, Jesse. I'm sorry. I'm 100 00:06:20,600 --> 00:06:23,279 Speaker 1: sad for you. I'm praying for you. Hey, we're there. 101 00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 1: Hey Jesse, you need anything, Hey man, I'm sad, you're set. 102 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:30,839 Speaker 1: We're all sad. That's what I would need. I don't 103 00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 1: stand on still warm dead bodies while parents are, as 104 00:06:34,480 --> 00:06:38,520 Speaker 1: we speak, staring at their phones waiting for the phone 105 00:06:38,600 --> 00:06:43,080 Speaker 1: call to end all phone calls. I don't stand here 106 00:06:43,200 --> 00:06:45,880 Speaker 1: and point out race and guns and gun laws and 107 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: that I don't do it because it is important as 108 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,839 Speaker 1: a country, as a country as a whole. It is 109 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:57,720 Speaker 1: important when horrible things happen, not that we rip each 110 00:06:57,720 --> 00:07:01,000 Speaker 1: other to shreds. It is important that we come together 111 00:07:01,279 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: and hold each other and mourn together and just be 112 00:07:04,839 --> 00:07:09,960 Speaker 1: sad or angry or resolute, but we do it together. 113 00:07:10,880 --> 00:07:13,119 Speaker 1: And honestly, look, in the wake of nine to eleven, 114 00:07:13,160 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 1: you remember, now, granted that lasted about fifteen minutes, but 115 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:20,760 Speaker 1: in the wake of nine to eleven, it was just universal. 116 00:07:21,080 --> 00:07:24,480 Speaker 1: Let's come together. I can't believe this happened to us. 117 00:07:24,840 --> 00:07:28,320 Speaker 1: Let's have a good cry as a country. But instead, 118 00:07:28,920 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 1: the divide in this country has gotten so much worse 119 00:07:32,200 --> 00:07:35,160 Speaker 1: because the communists in this country who've taken over the 120 00:07:35,200 --> 00:07:43,280 Speaker 1: Democratic Party now shamelessly, without hesitation, pounce on every single 121 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:49,080 Speaker 1: terrible shooting that happens and try to politic and it's disgusting. 122 00:07:49,400 --> 00:07:54,080 Speaker 1: This is New York Democrat Andrew Gnawards New York City 123 00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: in general, the last two years have just been insane 124 00:07:56,560 --> 00:07:57,800 Speaker 1: for a lot of people who live here. A lot 125 00:07:57,840 --> 00:07:59,640 Speaker 1: of people are afraid to visit New York City right now, 126 00:07:59,640 --> 00:08:01,800 Speaker 1: and this is gonna also contribute to that. What do 127 00:08:01,800 --> 00:08:02,960 Speaker 1: you tell those Well, look, I mean, if you look 128 00:08:02,960 --> 00:08:05,280 Speaker 1: at the facts, facts matter. They murder rate in Florida 129 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:07,000 Speaker 1: is higher than the murder rate in New York. So 130 00:08:07,120 --> 00:08:09,680 Speaker 1: that's really important. So everyone's flocking to Florida because it 131 00:08:10,240 --> 00:08:12,320 Speaker 1: feels safer down there, it's actually a higher murder rate 132 00:08:12,320 --> 00:08:14,080 Speaker 1: than here in New York. What we need is we 133 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: need Congress to finally get their act together and pass 134 00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:19,280 Speaker 1: the universal background checks. Eighty six percent of guns that 135 00:08:19,320 --> 00:08:21,840 Speaker 1: are used in crimes in New York come from outside 136 00:08:21,840 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 1: of New York City. It's not a matter of New 137 00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: York's gun laws. It's a matter of the gun laws 138 00:08:25,040 --> 00:08:29,200 Speaker 1: of Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and South Carolina. 139 00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: It's because the poorest laws there are so weak, and 140 00:08:32,240 --> 00:08:35,240 Speaker 1: Congress has refused to take action, and in fact, every 141 00:08:35,240 --> 00:08:37,600 Speaker 1: time they brought the universal background check up for a vote, 142 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 1: it's been Congressional Republicans who have voted against it. That's 143 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,000 Speaker 1: why we can't crack down the Iron pipeline. That's why 144 00:08:43,000 --> 00:08:45,240 Speaker 1: we have guns coming into New York. We need Congress 145 00:08:45,240 --> 00:08:46,800 Speaker 1: to step up to the plate and do their part 146 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:48,720 Speaker 1: while we're trying to do our part here to keep 147 00:08:48,760 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 1: our neighborhoods safe. That's a New York State senator, that's 148 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 1: a Democrat. Did you did you hear those words? Did 149 00:08:57,520 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: you hear that language? There is a mother as we speak, 150 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 1: as you're listening to the sound of my voice, there 151 00:09:06,160 --> 00:09:09,480 Speaker 1: is a mother right now in New York City clutching 152 00:09:09,480 --> 00:09:13,240 Speaker 1: her phone so hard she might break it. Why she 153 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:16,160 Speaker 1: wants to know if her baby's out of surgery and 154 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:21,360 Speaker 1: still alive. And you step up to the microphone and 155 00:09:21,400 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 1: it's a we need gun laws and the iron pipeline, 156 00:09:24,280 --> 00:09:27,280 Speaker 1: and if Congress would step in and these guns and oh, 157 00:09:27,360 --> 00:09:31,280 Speaker 1: by the way, Florida that I mentioned Florida. Hey, Florida sucks. 158 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:37,760 Speaker 1: What's wrong with you? What part of you is supposed 159 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:42,360 Speaker 1: to be there that is no longer there. People are 160 00:09:42,640 --> 00:09:49,320 Speaker 1: devastated right now, ripped to bits, scared, sad, angry. You 161 00:09:49,400 --> 00:09:52,480 Speaker 1: want to know why we're so divided in this country? 162 00:09:52,800 --> 00:09:56,040 Speaker 1: There is no bigger reason for the divide in the 163 00:09:56,160 --> 00:10:00,640 Speaker 1: United States of America than the Democratic parties now, the 164 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:05,920 Speaker 1: current response to every single mass shooting, it's disgusting. Shut 165 00:10:06,040 --> 00:10:11,040 Speaker 1: up and say sorry, I'm there for you. We're here together. 166 00:10:11,720 --> 00:10:15,760 Speaker 1: Let's mourn together. Look, I understand they're gonna gun grab. 167 00:10:15,840 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 1: That's fine. That can't wait a week, that can't wait 168 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: a couple of days. You have to do that now. 169 00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:30,000 Speaker 1: That's why, all right, I realize inflation is the hotness today. 170 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,200 Speaker 1: That's the real news. So we're gonna talk about inflation, 171 00:10:33,240 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: and we're not gonna talk about it in a way 172 00:10:35,080 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 1: you have heard anyone else talk about it. Today. It's 173 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: time to have a hard chat here on the Jesse 174 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,280 Speaker 1: Kelly Show.

You shouldn't but dumb you might feel, 181 00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:06,400 Speaker 1: and you feel like, oh man, I'm gonna pass this 182 00:11:06,520 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 1: down to my kids.

Jesse at Jesse Kelly Show dot com. 202 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:35,079 Speaker 1: It's time to talk about the gigantic news of the day, 203 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,840 Speaker 1: and that's inflation. Now, we're not going to talk about 204 00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:42,160 Speaker 1: this in a way anyone else today has talked about it, 205 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:44,240 Speaker 1: and we're not going to talk about it in a 206 00:12:44,280 --> 00:12:46,480 Speaker 1: way that makes you feel good. I know that's not 207 00:12:46,600 --> 00:12:50,280 Speaker 1: exactly the best radio teas in the world, but look, 208 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:54,920 Speaker 1: let's talk about me for a second. You know, No, 209 00:12:54,960 --> 00:12:56,800 Speaker 1: don't worry. I'm gonna come back to inflation. This is 210 00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 1: all I'm gonna bring it all together. Just give me 211 00:12:59,440 --> 00:13:03,760 Speaker 1: a second. You know, I'm six foot eight, six ft eight. 212 00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:05,880 Speaker 1: People think I'm joking about that, and then when they 213 00:13:05,880 --> 00:13:08,559 Speaker 1: made me they say, oh my gosh, you're huge. I'm 214 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:11,160 Speaker 1: six foot eight. And so what's the first thing you 215 00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:14,679 Speaker 1: probably ask a person who's six foot eight. You shouldn't, 216 00:13:15,080 --> 00:13:17,240 Speaker 1: but people don't really have a great sense of themselves, 217 00:13:17,320 --> 00:13:19,040 Speaker 1: so they all do it. What's the first thing they ask? Chris, 218 00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:21,720 Speaker 1: you want to take a guess? No, not, what's the 219 00:13:21,760 --> 00:13:24,320 Speaker 1: weather up there? That's a good guest, Chris. What's the second? Michael? 220 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:28,280 Speaker 1: One hundred percent? Michael got it? Do you play basketball? 221 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 1: How's the weather up there? And do you play basketball? Chris. 222 00:13:31,360 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: It was a great guest, because that's honestly been as 223 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:34,959 Speaker 1: much as the other one. But the first thing people 224 00:13:35,000 --> 00:13:37,959 Speaker 1: as is do you play basketball? And allow me to 225 00:13:38,000 --> 00:13:42,600 Speaker 1: answer that kind of My dad was actually a really 226 00:13:42,600 --> 00:13:44,480 Speaker 1: good basketball player. Don't worry, this is going to tie 227 00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 1: into inflation. Stay with me. My dad was a really 228 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 1: good basketball player, had a full ride scholarship to college 229 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:52,640 Speaker 1: and whatnot, and so because of that, I wanted to 230 00:13:52,679 --> 00:13:55,679 Speaker 1: impress my dad. And I was always a tall, skinny kid, 231 00:13:55,720 --> 00:13:58,479 Speaker 1: but I was tall, and so I wanted to play basketball. 232 00:13:58,520 --> 00:14:02,080 Speaker 1: Why I wanted me to play basketball. Kids do things 233 00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:04,000 Speaker 1: to impress their fathers, and there's nothing wrong with that. 234 00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:07,720 Speaker 1: But I played for gosh as long as I can remember. 235 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:12,480 Speaker 1: And then eventually sophomore year of high school came around, 236 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,560 Speaker 1: and don't worry, just hang with me. A second sophomore 237 00:14:16,600 --> 00:14:18,560 Speaker 1: year of high school comes around, and we're officially in 238 00:14:18,760 --> 00:14:21,360 Speaker 1: tryouts time, right, And I've I've tried out for the 239 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,120 Speaker 1: team every other year and made the team and was 240 00:14:24,120 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 1: a very middling player. Maybe start off, so maybe, hey, 241 00:14:28,240 --> 00:14:30,800 Speaker 1: did someone blow out on me? I guess we'll start Kelly. 242 00:14:30,840 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 1: You know, I could I was serviceable, I could shoot 243 00:14:33,200 --> 00:14:36,880 Speaker 1: I could block shots. I was not that great. And 244 00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 1: there's a reason I wasn't that great. I didn't really 245 00:14:40,120 --> 00:14:42,240 Speaker 1: love it, so I don't really work hard at it. 246 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:46,200 Speaker 1: It's lazy. But sophomore year rolls around and there are tryouts. 247 00:14:47,960 --> 00:14:53,560 Speaker 1: The tryouts are intense, and I barely make the team. 248 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 1: I don't remember how many they kept on the high 249 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:58,880 Speaker 1: school team my sophomore year, but whatever the last number was, 250 00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:02,120 Speaker 1: that's probably the slow I got right. I barely made 251 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 1: the team. And then sophomore year I never played. I 252 00:15:08,400 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 1: never played. I rode the bench the whole year. Unless 253 00:15:10,040 --> 00:15:12,240 Speaker 1: it was a blowout, I never got in. And I 254 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:16,760 Speaker 1: sat there riding the bench all year long. And how 255 00:15:16,760 --> 00:15:19,160 Speaker 1: old are you as a sophomore sixteen or so? And 256 00:15:19,280 --> 00:15:21,280 Speaker 1: you know what I did the whole year my sophomore year, 257 00:15:22,840 --> 00:15:26,600 Speaker 1: whined about the coach to myself, complained about that idiot coach. 258 00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:28,520 Speaker 1: I still remember his name. I'm not going to give 259 00:15:28,520 --> 00:15:32,720 Speaker 1: it his name, but coach, this useless coach. He doesn't 260 00:15:32,760 --> 00:15:36,520 Speaker 1: know talent when he sees it. This coach that's a coach. 261 00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,760 Speaker 1: If I get some if I get some playing time, 262 00:15:40,120 --> 00:15:43,520 Speaker 1: coaches fault, and you know what I'll be honest with you. 263 00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:47,360 Speaker 1: That felt so good, right because it's not my fault. 264 00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:50,000 Speaker 1: But of course it's not my fault. This coach is fault. 265 00:15:50,760 --> 00:15:53,040 Speaker 1: It's all of coaches fault. Of course, it's that evil coach. 266 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,880 Speaker 1: You see, basketball coaches oftentimes make a habit of sitting 267 00:15:56,920 --> 00:15:59,520 Speaker 1: their best players on the bench for no reason at all, right, right, 268 00:15:59,560 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 1: all they don't do that. The truth is, as a 269 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:06,760 Speaker 1: sixteen year old, I know you're gonna find this very shocking. 270 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:12,120 Speaker 1: I was immature, very immature. And the truth is, and 271 00:16:12,200 --> 00:16:15,360 Speaker 1: whaten the coach's fault at all? The truth is the 272 00:16:15,440 --> 00:16:20,200 Speaker 1: fault lied elsewhere. I just didn't want to talk about it. 273 00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 1: Now let's have a hard talk. And this is going 274 00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 1: to hurt because you woke up today and you saw 275 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,560 Speaker 1: the inflation number was eight point five percent. Now, you 276 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:32,840 Speaker 1: tell me what have you heard on every other radio 277 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:35,240 Speaker 1: and TV show today that you've watched or listen to 278 00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 1: every other one? What have you heard about inflation today? 279 00:16:39,120 --> 00:16:42,560 Speaker 1: I know what you've heard. Go ahead, Joe Biden, the 280 00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:47,080 Speaker 1: Biden price hike. Look what Joe Biden did. I can't 281 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:55,720 Speaker 1: believe Joe Biden. This is Joe Biden, Biden and inflation. Yeah, 282 00:16:55,720 --> 00:16:58,800 Speaker 1: but that's not true. Oh, don't get me wrong. Joe 283 00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,040 Speaker 1: Biden has made it worse, no question about it. Joe 284 00:17:01,040 --> 00:17:04,359 Speaker 1: Biden's a disaster. Joe Biden has made it worse, no 285 00:17:04,480 --> 00:17:09,520 Speaker 1: question about that. But would you like to know exactly 286 00:17:09,800 --> 00:17:13,480 Speaker 1: when inflation began? Would you like to know? Allow me 287 00:17:13,560 --> 00:17:15,760 Speaker 1: to tell you. Perhaps this will ring a bell for you. 288 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:22,119 Speaker 1: Inflation began at gosh, what is that number? Fifteen days 289 00:17:22,520 --> 00:17:27,960 Speaker 1: to slow the spread. And I know that hurts because, 290 00:17:28,119 --> 00:17:32,359 Speaker 1: just like me riding the bench during basketball season, gosh, 291 00:17:32,440 --> 00:17:35,360 Speaker 1: that means you might have to ask some hard questions 292 00:17:35,400 --> 00:17:39,480 Speaker 1: about people you like. But the truth is, in response 293 00:17:39,560 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 1: to a virus, we as a country took our twenty 294 00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:50,320 Speaker 1: trillion dollar economy and we stopped it. We stopped it 295 00:17:50,359 --> 00:17:54,960 Speaker 1: on purpose. And not only did we stop the economy, 296 00:17:55,080 --> 00:17:59,320 Speaker 1: we then went after the economy began having major problems 297 00:17:59,359 --> 00:18:05,640 Speaker 1: from being stopped, we then went and printed five trillion dollars, 298 00:18:05,680 --> 00:18:10,240 Speaker 1: six trillion dollars, what's the exact number. It's gigantic, And 299 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 1: we started just chucking trillions of dollars at the economy. 300 00:18:14,800 --> 00:18:19,440 Speaker 1: We stopped on purpose. And now now that the chickens 301 00:18:19,480 --> 00:18:22,960 Speaker 1: have come home to roost, We're all sitting there on 302 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:26,240 Speaker 1: the end of the bench sophomore year in basketball season, 303 00:18:26,760 --> 00:18:31,520 Speaker 1: looking at coach Joe Biden and saying, Ah, that scumbag, 304 00:18:31,840 --> 00:18:38,919 Speaker 1: here's a reason I can't afford meet. That's ridiculous, Joe Biden. No, 305 00:18:40,359 --> 00:18:45,760 Speaker 1: that's not true. This inflation. This is still the inflation 306 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:49,560 Speaker 1: from the last administration. We haven't even gotten to the 307 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:53,680 Speaker 1: Joe Biden portion of inflation yet. That's still to come. 308 00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 1: And the reason I bring this up is not because 309 00:18:56,320 --> 00:18:58,120 Speaker 1: it will be popular. I know you're gonna be mad. 310 00:18:58,160 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 1: I don't give a crap Jesse at Jesse Kelly show 311 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:02,280 Speaker 1: dot com. You can yell at me all day long. 312 00:19:02,320 --> 00:19:03,639 Speaker 1: It doesn't matter to me what I just said. It 313 00:19:03,720 --> 00:19:07,840 Speaker 1: is true. The reason I bring this up is if 314 00:19:07,880 --> 00:19:13,320 Speaker 1: we don't take the right lessons from our failures, then 315 00:19:13,359 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 1: we'll never improve. At the end of my sophomore year, 316 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,800 Speaker 1: you know what I did? Did I buckle down, practice more, 317 00:19:19,880 --> 00:19:23,920 Speaker 1: get in the gym, lists some weights. I quit quit 318 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:28,840 Speaker 1: basketball forever and never went back. A stupid coach's fault. Why, 319 00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:31,560 Speaker 1: as I wasn't mature enough to learn the hard lessons, 320 00:19:33,359 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 1: let's not make that same mistake. It is the Jesse 321 00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:50,359 Speaker 1: Kelly Show, and it's time to bring in one of 322 00:19:50,359 --> 00:19:53,600 Speaker 1: our favorites, obviously, here, the great Carol Markowitz of the 323 00:19:53,720 --> 00:19:58,520 Speaker 1: New York Post. All right, Carol, bringing you in for 324 00:19:58,560 --> 00:20:00,639 Speaker 1: a few different reasons. One because we're going to talk 325 00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,719 Speaker 1: about inflation and all these things. But I opened up 326 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:07,760 Speaker 1: the show initially and I said, hey, we don't politic 327 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:12,159 Speaker 1: on the backs of shooting victims here. That it's something 328 00:20:12,160 --> 00:20:15,080 Speaker 1: the communists do. It's something I've always found to be 329 00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:18,520 Speaker 1: uniquely gross. So I'm not taking any political angles on it. 330 00:20:18,600 --> 00:20:22,320 Speaker 1: I'm saying prayers for everybody involved. That's somebody's husband, wife, daughter, 331 00:20:22,440 --> 00:20:25,959 Speaker 1: brother out there today. But you do have better sources 332 00:20:26,000 --> 00:20:29,439 Speaker 1: than we do. What does Carol Markowitz know that we 333 00:20:29,520 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 1: don't know? Right now? I don't know very much about 334 00:20:33,520 --> 00:20:37,960 Speaker 1: what happened today, but I did get some tips about 335 00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,960 Speaker 1: the fact that there was commercial fireworks at the scene, 336 00:20:41,040 --> 00:20:44,920 Speaker 1: of pistols found at the scene, and this is sort 337 00:20:44,960 --> 00:20:48,520 Speaker 1: of the information that I have basically right now. Okay, 338 00:20:48,560 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 1: And as what if somebody's listening right now and they've 339 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,520 Speaker 1: never been down to that part of the subway, you have, 340 00:20:54,720 --> 00:20:59,359 Speaker 1: what's it like? Yeah, it's you know, it's scary. Obviously, 341 00:20:59,480 --> 00:21:05,080 Speaker 1: there's um, there's tunnels there, and it's kind of chaotic 342 00:21:05,080 --> 00:21:09,639 Speaker 1: in the mornings, I would say, And so it's you know, 343 00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:11,960 Speaker 1: it's it's not great. It's not a great situation that 344 00:21:12,119 --> 00:21:16,639 Speaker 1: happened during rush hour, and I just pray for everybody 345 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:19,399 Speaker 1: involved here. All right, let's move on from that, and 346 00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,919 Speaker 1: let's talk about New York's Lieutenant governor, which this is 347 00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:25,720 Speaker 1: getting no play today, but before we get to inflation, 348 00:21:25,760 --> 00:21:28,199 Speaker 1: we have to bring this up. Brian Benjamin. This is 349 00:21:28,200 --> 00:21:30,639 Speaker 1: a person most people don't even know of his existence, 350 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:33,240 Speaker 1: but Lieutenant governor of New York is a really big deal. 351 00:21:33,880 --> 00:21:36,399 Speaker 1: And he gets arrested today. And I'll tell you, Carol, 352 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:39,119 Speaker 1: when I saw the headline, I thought to myself, that's 353 00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,679 Speaker 1: weird in a state is crooked? Is New York to 354 00:21:41,720 --> 00:21:47,040 Speaker 1: actually arrest a Democrat? What am I missing? So it's 355 00:21:47,080 --> 00:21:50,040 Speaker 1: interesting because I wonder what the political shenanigans are here 356 00:21:50,400 --> 00:21:53,439 Speaker 1: that to happen to him. You know, the word is 357 00:21:53,480 --> 00:21:56,639 Speaker 1: that hcol wanted him off of the ticket. And I 358 00:21:56,640 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 1: don't know whether that's, you know, actually the case, but 359 00:21:58,840 --> 00:22:02,120 Speaker 1: that is absolute, absolute the political rumor mill today that 360 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:06,080 Speaker 1: she no longer wanted him on her ticket going forward. 361 00:22:06,160 --> 00:22:08,720 Speaker 1: So you know, I'd love to see the details of 362 00:22:08,760 --> 00:22:12,520 Speaker 1: this play out because it's it's really wacky to me 363 00:22:12,640 --> 00:22:16,160 Speaker 1: that this actually happened. I think you nailed it where 364 00:22:16,240 --> 00:22:18,760 Speaker 1: it's unlikely for a Democrat to go down for something 365 00:22:18,800 --> 00:22:22,880 Speaker 1: like this, but we're watching it happen. Carol, you talk 366 00:22:23,040 --> 00:22:25,720 Speaker 1: often about how you left New York and you live 367 00:22:25,760 --> 00:22:29,880 Speaker 1: in Florida. As someone who has lived in a red 368 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,719 Speaker 1: area for the last two years, you haven't You've managed 369 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:36,399 Speaker 1: to cobble both together. Can you explain as again the 370 00:22:36,480 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 1: COVID hysteria is starting to ramp up again, Fouci's making threats. 371 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:42,919 Speaker 1: People have seen. Philadelphia is lockdown, they have an indoor 372 00:22:42,920 --> 00:22:46,280 Speaker 1: masks mandate again, can you once again explain for people 373 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:51,200 Speaker 1: what is the difference between New York City and Florida. 374 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:55,639 Speaker 1: So it's it's beyond the two different planets. Basically, New 375 00:22:55,720 --> 00:22:58,280 Speaker 1: York is very likely going to go back into some 376 00:22:58,359 --> 00:23:02,320 Speaker 1: sort of masking thing where people have to wear masks 377 00:23:02,320 --> 00:23:06,920 Speaker 1: indoors again. Florida, it's absolutely not going to happen. Florida's 378 00:23:06,960 --> 00:23:10,200 Speaker 1: a free state. I live here with the knowledge that 379 00:23:10,640 --> 00:23:13,960 Speaker 1: there won't be suddenly masking back in schools. There won't 380 00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:18,600 Speaker 1: suddenly be masking back in businesses or restaurants or any 381 00:23:18,600 --> 00:23:21,160 Speaker 1: of that. I live with the knowledge that restaurants won't close, 382 00:23:21,160 --> 00:23:24,119 Speaker 1: that businesses won't close, that everything will continue to be 383 00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:26,600 Speaker 1: free and open the way it's been here and in 384 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:29,800 Speaker 1: New York. You just don't have that kind of comfort. 385 00:23:29,960 --> 00:23:33,760 Speaker 1: You don't know what's going to happen. Anything could happen, Carol. 386 00:23:35,119 --> 00:23:39,200 Speaker 1: Moving on to inflation. We were told over and over 387 00:23:39,359 --> 00:23:42,919 Speaker 1: and over again that we were essential, that we should 388 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 1: stay home, the kids didn't have to go to school, 389 00:23:45,760 --> 00:23:48,520 Speaker 1: and people went along with it. I think it's I 390 00:23:48,560 --> 00:23:50,640 Speaker 1: think that's not the nature of Americans. I think that's 391 00:23:50,680 --> 00:23:53,280 Speaker 1: the nature of people to go along with it for 392 00:23:53,440 --> 00:23:56,200 Speaker 1: a time. I mean, shoot words language like that's in 393 00:23:56,240 --> 00:23:58,639 Speaker 1: the Declaration of Independence, that that's kind of the nature 394 00:23:58,640 --> 00:24:00,439 Speaker 1: of man to just kind of go along with it 395 00:24:00,480 --> 00:24:05,040 Speaker 1: for a while. Yeah, today people are getting slaughtered by inflation. 396 00:24:05,720 --> 00:24:09,960 Speaker 1: Do you think enough people are understanding why they get 397 00:24:10,000 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 1: inflation today? I don't think so at all. I mean, 398 00:24:13,320 --> 00:24:16,159 Speaker 1: I think that anybody who follows Jesse Kelly probably understand. So. 399 00:24:16,240 --> 00:24:18,080 Speaker 1: I think you've been one of the best predictors of 400 00:24:18,160 --> 00:24:20,960 Speaker 1: this I think you cannot shut down an economy and 401 00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:23,400 Speaker 1: expect it to reopen period, end of story. It's something 402 00:24:23,440 --> 00:24:25,679 Speaker 1: that we learned in a really serious way over the 403 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: last two years, but I don't know that we've learned 404 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,399 Speaker 1: it going forward. I still don't know that people have 405 00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 1: the connection made between what we did and what's happening 406 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:37,359 Speaker 1: right now. I'm not sure that in a serious wave, 407 00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,800 Speaker 1: cities won't again shut down parts of their economy. I 408 00:24:40,800 --> 00:24:43,960 Speaker 1: don't know that they learned anything. Okay, I guess this 409 00:24:44,040 --> 00:24:48,359 Speaker 1: is my question, though, How is it possible if you're 410 00:24:48,440 --> 00:24:50,440 Speaker 1: in Let's look, we've been talking about New York. Let's 411 00:24:50,440 --> 00:24:52,000 Speaker 1: stick with New York. Let's if you're in New York 412 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:56,399 Speaker 1: City government. You can look around and see the business closures, 413 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 1: you can see the crime, you can see New York 414 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:01,439 Speaker 1: changing before your eyes. Let's set aside a scumbag like 415 00:25:01,480 --> 00:25:04,359 Speaker 1: Bill Deblasio, he's trash, or anybody tried to direct the city. 416 00:25:04,640 --> 00:25:07,320 Speaker 1: I don't believe everyone in the New York City Council's 417 00:25:07,359 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 1: trying to direct New York. That would be crazy. They 418 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:14,879 Speaker 1: can see what's happening. Why don't they stop? Yeah, you know, 419 00:25:15,119 --> 00:25:18,359 Speaker 1: it's it's very hard to stop this kind of mass mania. 420 00:25:18,520 --> 00:25:20,600 Speaker 1: And I think that's what we're seeing here is that, 421 00:25:20,960 --> 00:25:24,240 Speaker 1: you know, once it gripped the people, it was impossible 422 00:25:24,280 --> 00:25:27,520 Speaker 1: to get them off of that hand. And you know, 423 00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:31,439 Speaker 1: they're still afraid. People are still terrified. They still you know, 424 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:35,280 Speaker 1: are completely into this idea that COVID is coming to 425 00:25:35,359 --> 00:25:38,520 Speaker 1: kill us all. So it's really tough to get people 426 00:25:38,560 --> 00:25:41,680 Speaker 1: off of it. Cairol Market, what's New York Post? Thank 427 00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:49,399 Speaker 1: you so much, Cairol. All right, we have to have 428 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:54,880 Speaker 1: a chat now, we've already had to talk about well lessons, 429 00:25:55,440 --> 00:25:59,040 Speaker 1: we've talked about the shooting already, or more to the point, 430 00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:00,960 Speaker 1: we've talked about how we're not going to talk about 431 00:26:01,000 --> 00:26:03,399 Speaker 1: to the shooting, but we have to have a talk 432 00:26:03,440 --> 00:26:06,320 Speaker 1: about the people who do lead us, because there is 433 00:26:06,359 --> 00:26:10,720 Speaker 1: something happening out there right now consistently, and it's driving 434 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:14,560 Speaker 1: me insane. Let me give you a little example before 435 00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 1: we get to it. They keep using these words putin 436 00:26:17,480 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 1: price hike. Let's say I was watching the highway. I 437 00:26:22,520 --> 00:26:25,080 Speaker 1: don't know why I'd be watching the highway, but let's 438 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:28,200 Speaker 1: say me I was watching the highway and some guy 439 00:26:28,280 --> 00:26:32,800 Speaker 1: named Ralph was driving a car and somebody rear ends him, 440 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:35,639 Speaker 1: Ralph ends up running into the car in front of him. 441 00:26:35,680 --> 00:26:38,919 Speaker 1: You know what I'm talking about, twenty car pile up fatalities. 442 00:26:39,440 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 1: One of those disastrous situations you pray your son, daughter, husband, 443 00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:46,520 Speaker 1: wife never gets involved in. Right, And what if I 444 00:26:46,600 --> 00:26:48,639 Speaker 1: was looking at this thing, and because I had my 445 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,240 Speaker 1: launch here on the side of the highway like any weirdo, 446 00:26:51,560 --> 00:26:55,000 Speaker 1: and I decide as I look at all this carnage 447 00:26:55,560 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 1: as people are suffering, crying, loaded into ambulance, as people 448 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:01,880 Speaker 1: were dying, and I look at this and I say, 449 00:27:01,920 --> 00:27:07,320 Speaker 1: you know what, Let's call this the Ralph Wreck. Hey guys, hey, 450 00:27:07,359 --> 00:27:09,240 Speaker 1: I'm gonna put this out on social media. There was 451 00:27:09,240 --> 00:27:11,560 Speaker 1: this huge pile up and all these people died. We're 452 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:15,919 Speaker 1: gonna call it the Ralph wreck. Hashtag Ralph wreck. What 453 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,480 Speaker 1: would you say about that? You would say, Okay, who 454 00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:23,560 Speaker 1: is this freaking monster who's trying to come up with 455 00:27:23,720 --> 00:27:29,840 Speaker 1: a label for something while people are suffering. This is 456 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:32,560 Speaker 1: not a small thing to me. When I hear things 457 00:27:32,600 --> 00:27:36,760 Speaker 1: like this consistently, it makes me insane with rage. So 458 00:27:36,840 --> 00:27:39,560 Speaker 1: because of the actions we've taken to address put the 459 00:27:39,600 --> 00:27:41,480 Speaker 1: Putin price hike, we are in a better place than 460 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 1: we were last month. Right now, and again, part of 461 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:48,679 Speaker 1: that justice is lowering cost Right now, of course, we 462 00:27:48,800 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 1: have the Putin price hike at the pump, and we're 463 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:55,960 Speaker 1: gonna make sure that the full story is told both 464 00:27:56,000 --> 00:27:58,439 Speaker 1: as it relates to Putin's price hike. We're gonna do 465 00:27:58,480 --> 00:28:01,400 Speaker 1: everything I can to minimize whose price hike here at home? 466 00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:06,040 Speaker 1: How evil is that to look out at eight point 467 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:10,600 Speaker 1: five percent inflation. We're seeing numbers gas prices, meat, eggs, chicken, 468 00:28:10,720 --> 00:28:14,440 Speaker 1: We're seeing people just broken on the wheel of inflation. 469 00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:19,280 Speaker 1: And you look at all this suffering from the administration, 470 00:28:19,400 --> 00:28:21,320 Speaker 1: right so this is three hundred and thirty million of 471 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:24,240 Speaker 1: his people. You look at all this suffering and your 472 00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:27,920 Speaker 1: first thought is, hey, guys, let's come up with the 473 00:28:28,040 --> 00:28:30,720 Speaker 1: label for it. Hey, let's get a hashtag? Can we 474 00:28:30,760 --> 00:28:34,680 Speaker 1: get a hashtag going on social media? We have gross 475 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:37,080 Speaker 1: people who lead this country. We're going to talk about 476 00:28:37,119 --> 00:28:39,560 Speaker 1: that here in just a second. Before we get to that, though, 477 00:28:40,440 --> 00:28:44,600 Speaker 1: let's talk about where does your cell phone money go 478 00:28:45,000 --> 00:28:50,560 Speaker 1: every single month? Be honest, are you still funding Verizon? 479 00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:53,440 Speaker 1: Let's just use Verizon as an example. If you are 480 00:28:54,120 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 1: look no judgment here. I've had Verizon take five minutes. Yeah, 481 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 1: we're about to have five minutes. Take five minutes and 482 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:05,640 Speaker 1: go brows for Verizon ads just in the last two years, 483 00:29:05,720 --> 00:29:10,280 Speaker 1: and look at Verizon's values, look at what you're funding. 484 00:29:11,160 --> 00:29:14,640 Speaker 1: Or you could switch to pure Talk. Switch from Verizon 485 00:29:14,720 --> 00:29:16,840 Speaker 1: at and T T mobile. Pure Talk is on the 486 00:29:16,880 --> 00:29:19,640 Speaker 1: exact same five G network as one of those big guys. 487 00:29:20,000 --> 00:29:23,600 Speaker 1: They're CEOs of Vietnam Veteran. Their customer service is based 488 00:29:23,600 --> 00:29:26,560 Speaker 1: in America. And you've never seen a pure Talk ad 489 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 1: that craps on your values, and you never will. And 490 00:29:30,160 --> 00:29:32,720 Speaker 1: average family saves over eight hundred dollars a year. Switch 491 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:36,040 Speaker 1: just to save some cash. It takes less than ten 492 00:29:36,120 --> 00:29:41,080 Speaker 1: minutes from your cell.

You know 506 00:30:35,040 --> 00:30:37,640 Speaker 1: why I'm messed up. My in laws are in town. 507 00:30:37,760 --> 00:30:40,280 Speaker 1: I have every excuse in the world. You're lucky I 508 00:30:40,400 --> 00:30:43,720 Speaker 1: showed up at all. A back to what we were 509 00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:45,520 Speaker 1: talking about it, We're gonna get to some emails we 510 00:30:45,640 --> 00:30:47,560 Speaker 1: still have. Look, we have a bunch we have to 511 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:51,520 Speaker 1: get to. We still have to talk about coronavirus and 512 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:55,480 Speaker 1: liars and hypocrisy. We have to talk about the CDC 513 00:30:55,720 --> 00:30:57,640 Speaker 1: in the teachers Union, we have to talk about the 514 00:30:57,840 --> 00:31:01,920 Speaker 1: system Mark Zuckerberg and Facebook. People forget about a lot 515 00:31:01,960 --> 00:31:03,680 Speaker 1: of these things. We have a ton to talk about 516 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:07,400 Speaker 1: still here on the Jesse Kelly Show. But I want 517 00:31:07,400 --> 00:31:10,720 Speaker 1: to go back to this again. It really does show 518 00:31:11,480 --> 00:31:16,240 Speaker 1: how cold the people who lead this country are. Because look, 519 00:31:16,600 --> 00:31:19,120 Speaker 1: it's one thing. If you're okay, if you're Joe Biden, 520 00:31:19,160 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 1: that's an easy example. If you're Joe Biden, if you're 521 00:31:21,440 --> 00:31:25,120 Speaker 1: Jen Saki, You're well off. You're doing great money wise. 522 00:31:25,520 --> 00:31:28,040 Speaker 1: I mean, lord knows, Joe Biden has blood sucked enough 523 00:31:28,160 --> 00:31:30,600 Speaker 1: Chinese and Ukraine money out from his son that he's 524 00:31:30,640 --> 00:31:33,280 Speaker 1: doing fine the rest of his life. You've got secret 525 00:31:33,600 --> 00:31:35,880 Speaker 1: stashes of cash all over the place. I know how 526 00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 1: it works, Joe. So you're doing fine. And it's one 527 00:31:38,800 --> 00:31:42,240 Speaker 1: thing if you personally don't feel inflation, because let's be frank, 528 00:31:42,960 --> 00:31:46,520 Speaker 1: a lot of rich people aren't feeling inflation. Yeah, meters 529 00:31:46,600 --> 00:31:50,280 Speaker 1: up thirteen percent, They don't give a cramp. That's fine. 530 00:31:50,360 --> 00:31:52,640 Speaker 1: I don't expect everyone to go through the same things. 531 00:31:53,480 --> 00:31:59,600 Speaker 1: Life's unfair, But how could you not look out at 532 00:31:59,640 --> 00:32:05,959 Speaker 1: the people being crushed by it and feel anything? What happens, 533 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:11,080 Speaker 1: what goes wrong inside of these politicians where they look 534 00:32:11,160 --> 00:32:14,560 Speaker 1: out at the suffering of the masses and they just 535 00:32:14,880 --> 00:32:19,959 Speaker 1: don't feel anything. It's like there's nothing inside of them 536 00:32:20,040 --> 00:32:24,680 Speaker 1: at all. We have inflation now destroying the standard of 537 00:32:24,760 --> 00:32:28,120 Speaker 1: living eight point five percent is shocking. Some guy wrote 538 00:32:28,160 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: to me and said he's gotten two promotions in the 539 00:32:30,240 --> 00:32:34,440 Speaker 1: last two years. Inflation has already completely eliminated one of them. 540 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:37,680 Speaker 1: And that's the guy who got promoted. What about the 541 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,960 Speaker 1: guy who didn't you know what he has? He has 542 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:43,640 Speaker 1: an eight point five percent lower standard of living and 543 00:32:43,680 --> 00:32:46,640 Speaker 1: the numbers actually higher than that. That's the truth. So 544 00:32:48,320 --> 00:32:51,440 Speaker 1: how do you look at that kind of carnage? How 545 00:32:51,480 --> 00:32:54,120 Speaker 1: do you look at families who are having to make 546 00:32:54,400 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 1: major lifestyle adjustments. Kids moving back in with their parents, 547 00:32:58,600 --> 00:33:03,880 Speaker 1: parents moving in with their kids, people canceling plans, lifestyle changes. 548 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 1: How do you look at that and then gather your 549 00:33:07,560 --> 00:33:11,640 Speaker 1: staff around you. Hey, guys, all hands on deck. People 550 00:33:11,720 --> 00:33:14,960 Speaker 1: are suffering. How do we put a label on it? So, 551 00:33:15,120 --> 00:33:17,840 Speaker 1: because of the actions we've taken to address put the 552 00:33:17,880 --> 00:33:19,760 Speaker 1: Putin price hike, we are in a better place than 553 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 1: we were last month right now, and again, part of 554 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:26,960 Speaker 1: that justice is lowering cost Right now, of course, we 555 00:33:27,080 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 1: have the Putin price hike at the pump, and we're 556 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:33,479 Speaker 1: going to make sure that the full story is told 557 00:33:34,040 --> 00:33:36,640 Speaker 1: both as it relates to Putin's price hike. We're gonna 558 00:33:36,640 --> 00:33:39,320 Speaker 1: do everything I can to minimize Pudent's price hike here 559 00:33:39,320 --> 00:33:43,640 Speaker 1: at home. That's disgusting. How about and look, look, I 560 00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 1: understand they're democrats that most people listening to the Center. 561 00:33:48,440 --> 00:33:50,640 Speaker 1: My voice of Republicans. I understand that that there are 562 00:33:50,680 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 1: two different sides, but politics aside, and I know communists 563 00:33:54,760 --> 00:33:56,880 Speaker 1: can't ever set it aside. So that's the answer here. 564 00:33:57,160 --> 00:33:59,920 Speaker 1: But how do you not just step up as president 565 00:34:00,080 --> 00:34:03,240 Speaker 1: and say, hey, I know you're going through it right now. 566 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:07,000 Speaker 1: I know inflation is crushing you. We're gonna do whatever 567 00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,879 Speaker 1: we can to help you. But that it doesn't even 568 00:34:10,040 --> 00:34:13,520 Speaker 1: enter their minds. It doesn't even enter their minds. You 569 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:17,000 Speaker 1: know why. I'll tell you why they're in a bubble. 570 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:20,480 Speaker 1: Remember we talked last night about the bubble. In case 571 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:23,000 Speaker 1: you missed it, go download the podcast. The whole thing 572 00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:26,080 Speaker 1: is available on iHeart, Google, Spotify, and iTunes. So we're 573 00:34:26,080 --> 00:34:30,000 Speaker 1: gonna talk about it again. Let's let's focus first on 574 00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:32,560 Speaker 1: me because we're about to get to CNN. What Chris 575 00:34:32,600 --> 00:34:35,000 Speaker 1: I'd like to talk about me. Let's focus on me. 576 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:39,160 Speaker 1: I ran for Congress once i'd ever tell you that 577 00:34:39,239 --> 00:34:41,640 Speaker 1: story I've told you before. It's been a while, so 578 00:34:41,760 --> 00:34:43,520 Speaker 1: I realized we have a bunch of new listeners. Let me, 579 00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:46,040 Speaker 1: let me, let me explain what happened, because I'm gonna 580 00:34:46,040 --> 00:34:49,080 Speaker 1: get to this story about CNN and CNN Plus and 581 00:34:49,200 --> 00:34:51,320 Speaker 1: the cuts and stuff like that happening at CNN, and 582 00:34:51,400 --> 00:34:53,719 Speaker 1: it really does explain a lot of what you see 583 00:34:53,760 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 1: out of the Biden people. So a long time ago, 584 00:34:57,200 --> 00:34:59,800 Speaker 1: about oh, twenty thirty pounds ago, I was in the 585 00:35:01,239 --> 00:35:02,960 Speaker 1: two thousand to two thousand and four, I was in 586 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,920 Speaker 1: the Marines. I'd never been political prior to that. I 587 00:35:06,000 --> 00:35:08,000 Speaker 1: got out of the Marines and I moved to Arizona. 588 00:35:08,040 --> 00:35:10,760 Speaker 1: I'd never lived in Arizona. But I get to Arizona 589 00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:13,000 Speaker 1: and I just go back to work in construction. Remember 590 00:35:13,040 --> 00:35:16,640 Speaker 1: I don't exactly have a fancy background here. I'd come 591 00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 1: from a construction family. My dad did it, his dad 592 00:35:18,840 --> 00:35:21,040 Speaker 1: did it, very proud of it. I love it. I 593 00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:23,080 Speaker 1: think it's wonderful. But that's what we did. We did construction. 594 00:35:23,120 --> 00:35:24,799 Speaker 1: That's what we were and that's what I always thought 595 00:35:24,840 --> 00:35:26,160 Speaker 1: I was going to do the rest of my life. 596 00:35:26,200 --> 00:35:28,000 Speaker 1: I got out of the Marines, went right back to 597 00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:31,440 Speaker 1: the ditch. That's just the way it is. And I 598 00:35:31,600 --> 00:35:36,120 Speaker 1: started paying attention to politics more and more because Barack 599 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:39,960 Speaker 1: Obama was running for president one and two. I was 600 00:35:40,120 --> 00:35:41,920 Speaker 1: driving a lot. I was working out of town a 601 00:35:41,960 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 1: lot for construction. So it was just a lot of driving. 602 00:35:44,280 --> 00:35:45,840 Speaker 1: So I had time on the road. So I started 603 00:35:45,880 --> 00:35:49,120 Speaker 1: tuning into conservative talk radio, just various shows, and I 604 00:35:49,200 --> 00:35:51,560 Speaker 1: was just starting to learn, which got me interested. So 605 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:53,960 Speaker 1: I started to read, which got me angry because I 606 00:35:54,040 --> 00:35:56,520 Speaker 1: realized how bad Obama was going to be, and I 607 00:35:56,640 --> 00:36:00,760 Speaker 1: decided I was going to run. Now, when you decide 608 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 1: you're going to run for Congress, it's not as if 609 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:08,520 Speaker 1: a bunch of people come swooping in to help you 610 00:36:08,680 --> 00:36:11,719 Speaker 1: out right off the bat. For one, most people you 611 00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:14,960 Speaker 1: know think you're crazy. I mean my own sister, my 612 00:36:15,080 --> 00:36:18,279 Speaker 1: sister who I adore. She's the most honest human being 613 00:36:18,360 --> 00:36:20,279 Speaker 1: in the world. I'll never forget it. I called her, 614 00:36:20,360 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 1: having never been involved in politics before, and told her, 615 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 1: I'm running for Congress, and you know what, the first 616 00:36:24,719 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 1: words out of her mouth were, You're not even qualified. 617 00:36:29,000 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 1: And she was right, but said it out aside. I 618 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:36,080 Speaker 1: started running, and yes, I wasn't qualified. And I don't 619 00:36:36,120 --> 00:36:38,719 Speaker 1: exactly have to explain to you that I'm uneducated. But 620 00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:44,360 Speaker 1: I was dedicated and I was at everything. There wasn't 621 00:36:44,400 --> 00:36:47,640 Speaker 1: an event that I would skip. If you're having a 622 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:50,120 Speaker 1: little pancake breakfast with a couple of little old ladies, 623 00:36:50,239 --> 00:36:52,960 Speaker 1: I was there. You're having a Lions Club meeting. I 624 00:36:53,200 --> 00:36:56,439 Speaker 1: was there. Oh, there's a big community barbecue. I was there, 625 00:36:56,560 --> 00:37:00,840 Speaker 1: working at shaking hands and kissing babies, right. And because 626 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:03,920 Speaker 1: because I worked hard at it and because it just 627 00:37:04,160 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 1: it ended up being a real blessing for people. I 628 00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:10,600 Speaker 1: ended up getting people around me who were my staffers. 629 00:37:10,680 --> 00:37:12,680 Speaker 1: Now I didn't have a lot of money. I wasn't 630 00:37:12,719 --> 00:37:16,160 Speaker 1: the money candidate that I was not the establishment Republican candidate, 631 00:37:16,440 --> 00:37:18,200 Speaker 1: so I had to run a lean campaign, so I 632 00:37:18,239 --> 00:37:21,360 Speaker 1: couldn't pay a lot of people. Most people came just 633 00:37:21,440 --> 00:37:25,200 Speaker 1: because they believed and because they wanted They wanted me 634 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:28,040 Speaker 1: to win, and they were fans of the things we 635 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:32,520 Speaker 1: were saying. And that's good, but it can also be bad. 636 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:36,719 Speaker 1: I'll explain it in a section, and that
