Another hour of the Jesse Kelly Show on 3 00:00:21,239 --> 00:00:24,200 Speaker 1: a Monday. And here's what we got this hour. I 4 00:00:24,320 --> 00:00:28,240 Speaker 1: have a a thing a little Birdie told me that's 5 00:00:28,280 --> 00:00:31,960 Speaker 1: going to require your attention and my attention. That's coming 6 00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:35,680 Speaker 1: up right after Medal of Honor Monday, which we are 7 00:00:35,720 --> 00:00:39,959 Speaker 1: about to do right now. Remember this, Yes, you can 8 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:42,839 Speaker 1: email the show love hate, death threats, but you can 9 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:46,519 Speaker 1: also email the show any medal of honor citation you 10 00:00:46,600 --> 00:00:50,120 Speaker 1: may like or recommend or have a relation relation to you. 11 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 1: That's totally fine. This one was sent into us here 12 00:00:54,440 --> 00:00:57,080 Speaker 1: and it's a doozy. It's from Vietnam. These Vietnam ones 13 00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:00,560 Speaker 1: always they're just there's something those Vietnam. So that's what 14 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:01,880 Speaker 1: we're about to do. We're about to do Medal of 15 00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:04,520 Speaker 1: Honor Monday, and then we have some work to do. 16 00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:09,319 Speaker 1: You and I some emails. The Harris campaign falling behind 17 00:01:09,360 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 1: with male voters even more. All that is still to 18 00:01:12,319 --> 00:01:15,200 Speaker 1: come on the world famous Jesse Kelly Show. But without 19 00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:18,560 Speaker 1: further ado, let us do the Medal of Honor citation. 20 00:01:18,720 --> 00:01:23,120 Speaker 1: Let us revere a hero. Remember his name, Remember his deeds. 21 00:01:23,640 --> 00:01:26,720 Speaker 1: Let's talk to our kids about him and show them 22 00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:29,800 Speaker 1: that that guy, that's who you want to be like. 23 00:01:29,880 --> 00:01:33,959 Speaker 1: You want to be like A William Atkinson Atkinson Jones 24 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,320 Speaker 1: the third US Air Force. 25 00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 2: Right Hey, honoring those who went above and beyond It's 26 00:01:41,680 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 2: Medal of Honor Monday. 27 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:53,600 Speaker 1: For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity and action at the risk 28 00:01:53,640 --> 00:01:55,800 Speaker 1: of his life above and beyond the call of duty. 29 00:01:56,160 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: Colonel Jones distinguished himself as the pilot of an A 30 00:01:59,640 --> 00:02:04,960 Speaker 1: one a H Skyraider aircraft near Dong Hoy, North Vietnam 31 00:02:05,320 --> 00:02:08,800 Speaker 1: on that day as the onseen commander in the attempted 32 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:12,920 Speaker 1: rescue of a downed US pilot. Colonel jones aircraft was 33 00:02:12,960 --> 00:02:17,200 Speaker 1: repeatedly hit by heavy and accurate anti anti aircraft fire. 34 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:21,200 Speaker 1: On one of his low passes, Colonel Jones felt an 35 00:02:21,240 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 1: explosion beneath his aircraft and his cockpit rapidly filled with smoke. 36 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:31,239 Speaker 1: With complete disregard of the possibility that his aircraft might 37 00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:35,960 Speaker 1: still be burning, he unhesitatingly continued his search for the 38 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 1: downed pilot. On this pass, he sighted the survivor and 39 00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:44,840 Speaker 1: a multiple and a multiple barrel gun position firing at 40 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 1: him from near the top of a karst formation. He 41 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,959 Speaker 1: could not attack the gun position on that pass for 42 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:56,640 Speaker 1: fear he would endanger the downed pilot, leaving himself exposed 43 00:02:56,800 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 1: to the gun position. Colonel Jones attacked the position with 44 00:03:00,600 --> 00:03:04,960 Speaker 1: cannon and rocket fire on two successive passes. On his 45 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 1: second pass, the aircraft was hit with multiple rounds of 46 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 1: automatic weapons fire. One round impacted the Yankee extraction system 47 00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:19,760 Speaker 1: rocket mounted directly behind the headrest, igniting the rocket. His 48 00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 1: aircraft was observed to burst into flames in the center 49 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: fuselage section. With flames engulfing the cockpit area, he pulled 50 00:03:30,160 --> 00:03:35,240 Speaker 1: the extraction handle, jettising the canopy. Jettisoning the canopy, the 51 00:03:35,400 --> 00:03:38,800 Speaker 1: influx of fresh air made the fire burn with greater 52 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 1: intensity for a few moments, but since the rocket mortar 53 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:46,640 Speaker 1: had already burned, the extraction system did not pull Colonel 54 00:03:46,720 --> 00:03:51,560 Speaker 1: Jones from the aircraft. Despite searing pains from severe burns 55 00:03:51,600 --> 00:03:56,960 Speaker 1: sustained on his arms, hands, legs, shoulder, and face, Colonel 56 00:03:57,040 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: Jones pulled his aircraft into a climb and attempted to 57 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 1: transmit the location of the down pilot and the enemy 58 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:09,000 Speaker 1: gun position to the other aircraft in the area. His 59 00:04:09,160 --> 00:04:14,240 Speaker 1: calls were blocked by other aircraft transmissions, repeatedly directing him 60 00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:18,480 Speaker 1: to bail out, and within seconds his transmitters were disabled 61 00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:23,720 Speaker 1: and he could receive only on one channel. Completely disregarding 62 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:28,440 Speaker 1: his injuries, he elected to fly his crippled aircraft back 63 00:04:28,520 --> 00:04:32,120 Speaker 1: to his base and pass on essential information for the 64 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:37,159 Speaker 1: rescue rather than bail out. Colonel Jones successfully landed his 65 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:41,240 Speaker 1: heavily damaged aircraft and passed the information to a debriefing 66 00:04:41,279 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 1: officer while on the operating table Geez. As a result 67 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:50,200 Speaker 1: of the heroic actions and complete disregard for his personal safety, 68 00:04:50,440 --> 00:04:54,680 Speaker 1: the down pilot was rescued later in the day. Colonel 69 00:04:54,720 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 1: Jones profound concern for his fellow man at the risk 70 00:04:57,720 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 1: of his life above and beyond the call of are 71 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,599 Speaker 1: in keeping with the highest traditions of the US Air Force, 72 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 1: and reflect great credit upon himself in the armed forces 73 00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:12,680 Speaker 1: of his country. Now, I don't have a ton to 74 00:05:12,720 --> 00:05:15,840 Speaker 1: say about that jaw dropping story, except I will say this. 75 00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: Remember I told you I had to go to a 76 00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:21,760 Speaker 1: baseball game. It was a political thing, a baseball game 77 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 1: on Friday night. Well, I had to fly out of 78 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 1: town for it, and I was actually in Dallas and 79 00:05:29,240 --> 00:05:34,520 Speaker 1: Dallas right by one of their airports, they have a 80 00:05:34,680 --> 00:05:37,559 Speaker 1: flight museum. I know there are several flight museums around 81 00:05:37,560 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 1: the country, and you know, I'm a huge nerd. I 82 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:43,920 Speaker 1: can't help it. I had a couple hours to kill 83 00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,560 Speaker 1: until my flight, so I was excited about going to 84 00:05:47,600 --> 00:05:50,480 Speaker 1: the museum. I realize other people go to the movies 85 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,599 Speaker 1: or the bar. I went to the freaking flight museum. 86 00:05:52,640 --> 00:05:54,080 Speaker 1: What are you gonna do, sue me? I am who 87 00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:57,839 Speaker 1: I am. But I'm walking around this flight museum and 88 00:05:57,880 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 1: they have all these planes there, fighter jets, They have 89 00:06:02,040 --> 00:06:06,200 Speaker 1: a bunch of NASA stuff there, but they have prop planes, jet, 90 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: you name it. They've got a big Southwest Airlines plane 91 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,599 Speaker 1: you can get in. So it runs the gamut that 92 00:06:11,680 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 1: the planes are all over the place, but on so 93 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:20,960 Speaker 1: many of the planes the military aircraft. As I'm walking 94 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:27,359 Speaker 1: by them, I marveled at you pilots, and I'm gonna 95 00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,359 Speaker 1: say fighter pilot, but I don't just mean fighter pilots. 96 00:06:30,520 --> 00:06:35,480 Speaker 1: I'm talking anybody who's flown a plane in the Air Force, Navy, 97 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:41,640 Speaker 1: or Marine Corps that involved ground support operations, or maybe 98 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:44,680 Speaker 1: you were a fighter pilot, or if you flew on 99 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:48,840 Speaker 1: a helicopter, a plane of any kind in the military. 100 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: As much as I love to give the Air Force crap, 101 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 1: you blow me away with your bravery because these planes 102 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:02,479 Speaker 1: there's so much smaller than you think they're gonna be 103 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:07,480 Speaker 1: when you stand beside them. And not only smaller they 104 00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:10,320 Speaker 1: have they have the real actual planes are in there. 105 00:07:10,720 --> 00:07:16,920 Speaker 1: You look in and there's just nothing to them. And yes, Chris, 106 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:21,560 Speaker 1: they're made of nothing that you think. At least I 107 00:07:21,600 --> 00:07:24,280 Speaker 1: would think. And I used to think before I before 108 00:07:24,320 --> 00:07:26,880 Speaker 1: I knew better, before I joined the Marines and read 109 00:07:26,960 --> 00:07:29,880 Speaker 1: more and knew better. When you look at, uh, what's 110 00:07:29,920 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: a movie? A top gun is a great example. Everyone's 111 00:07:32,040 --> 00:07:33,880 Speaker 1: seeing top gun, at least one of them, probably both 112 00:07:33,880 --> 00:07:37,800 Speaker 1: of them. When you look at those fighter jets, maybe 113 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:40,560 Speaker 1: you have in your mind I did, so if you do, 114 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:44,120 Speaker 1: you're not dumb. But if you don't, good for you. 115 00:07:44,440 --> 00:07:47,680 Speaker 1: Maybe you think in your mind that those planes are 116 00:07:47,720 --> 00:07:51,760 Speaker 1: in some way armored. I would look at those planes 117 00:07:51,760 --> 00:07:54,480 Speaker 1: and I would say to myself, Wow, that's really cool. 118 00:07:54,480 --> 00:07:56,800 Speaker 1: Look at the guns, look at the missiles, and you 119 00:07:56,840 --> 00:07:59,200 Speaker 1: see that pop that that that pilot in there in 120 00:07:59,240 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: the cockpit, he's got to be protected, right, yeah, no, 121 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,480 Speaker 1: no he's not. And as I'm looking at these planes 122 00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 1: in the flight museum, it occurs to me, not only 123 00:08:13,280 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 1: does this plane look brittle and look dangerous sitting on 124 00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:21,720 Speaker 1: the ground, men and women. I want to give credit 125 00:08:21,720 --> 00:08:23,920 Speaker 1: where its to. There are a lot of wonderful female pilots, 126 00:08:24,320 --> 00:08:27,160 Speaker 1: men and women. That's actually weird. They can't drive, but 127 00:08:27,200 --> 00:08:30,960 Speaker 1: they fly really well. Men and women. They will routinely 128 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:36,560 Speaker 1: get in these aircraft and you might die every single time. 129 00:08:37,920 --> 00:08:41,120 Speaker 1: It might be a training accident, but you are in 130 00:08:41,320 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 1: paper thin nothing. You are flying at high speeds. You're 131 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:53,079 Speaker 1: surrounded by extremely flammable things, from the AMMO, to the missiles, 132 00:08:53,120 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 1: to the bombs to the freaking fuel itself. You know 133 00:08:57,160 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: how flammable aviation fuel is. Here's a little tidbit for 134 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:08,679 Speaker 1: you. You may not know. Many, many, many, many, many World 135 00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:13,839 Speaker 1: War Two naval ships, not necessarily just from America, although 136 00:09:13,840 --> 00:09:16,200 Speaker 1: we were part of this too, but other countries as well. 137 00:09:16,880 --> 00:09:22,319 Speaker 1: Many naval ships went down, not necessarily because of the 138 00:09:22,440 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 1: damage they sustained from the original explosion from the bomb, torpedo, 139 00:09:27,080 --> 00:09:30,760 Speaker 1: whatever it is. They went down because eventually the flames 140 00:09:30,840 --> 00:09:35,480 Speaker 1: found their way to the aviation fuel that is. There's 141 00:09:35,600 --> 00:09:37,480 Speaker 1: a one story of a Japanese ship. I forget the 142 00:09:37,559 --> 00:09:40,160 Speaker 1: name of the ship. It got hit by an American 143 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:44,080 Speaker 1: submarine's torpedo. One torpedo. The sub had shot a bunch 144 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:45,840 Speaker 1: of them at it. I won't go into the details. 145 00:09:45,840 --> 00:09:48,000 Speaker 1: But one torpedo hits the hits the carrier. It's an 146 00:09:48,000 --> 00:09:52,160 Speaker 1: aircraft carrier. Okay, one torpedoes. Not the end of the world. 147 00:09:52,320 --> 00:09:55,679 Speaker 1: They're taking on some water, but they kind of got 148 00:09:55,679 --> 00:09:58,960 Speaker 1: the water thing under the under control. It's not great, 149 00:09:59,720 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: but eventually that aircraft carrier went to the bottom of 150 00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:09,520 Speaker 1: the ocean. Why the torpedo ruptured the ab gas the 151 00:10:09,559 --> 00:10:13,600 Speaker 1: aviation fuel area, and the aviation fuel put out a 152 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: vapor slowly but surely in the ship that hours and 153 00:10:18,040 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: hours and hours later, it just blew up. It just 154 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:26,800 Speaker 1: blew up. And these pilots use psychopilots. You get in 155 00:10:26,840 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 1: these planes, then you fly this brittle machine on top 156 00:10:30,600 --> 00:10:33,760 Speaker 1: of all this explosive stuff. In this story here he 157 00:10:33,880 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: keeps making passes. Imagine burning to death, and imagine being 158 00:10:39,040 --> 00:10:41,040 Speaker 1: on a plane that might go and go up in 159 00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:44,000 Speaker 1: flames at any moment or just flat out crash. Where 160 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: you get to spend thirty seconds, plummeting to the earth, praying, 161 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,920 Speaker 1: saying goodbye to your wife, and you make several passes 162 00:10:52,000 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: to save the guy's life on the ground. That's pretty awesome, right, 163 00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:01,280 Speaker 1: all right. I have a little bit who's been whispering 164 00:11:01,320 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 1: some things in my year about something coming in DC 165 00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: that you need, you need to know and you're gonna 166 00:11:07,640 --> 00:11:09,679 Speaker 1: have to do something. I mean, we'll talk about that 167 00:11:09,800 --> 00:11:12,439 Speaker 1: something in a moment. Before we get to that something, 168 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:17,520 Speaker 1: we need to talk about health. It's one of the 169 00:11:17,520 --> 00:11:20,719 Speaker 1: things I'm actually really really grateful RFK Junior has been 170 00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,960 Speaker 1: louder about, especially now that he's part of the Trump 171 00:11:24,040 --> 00:11:26,760 Speaker 1: campaign and Trump is letting him speak on this, and 172 00:11:26,360 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: I like that health, basic health, and he's criticizing our 173 00:11:29,840 --> 00:11:35,319 Speaker 1: healthcare systems in the country. Natural herbal supplements are something 174 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: you need to incorporate in your life as a first 175 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:43,599 Speaker 1: line of defense, not a last line of defense. Do 176 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 1: you have the vitamins and minerals you need every day? 177 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:52,479 Speaker 1: How are your testostere levels, How's your energy?

Whoever you are, man, woman, old, young, 179 00:11:57,400 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Chalk has the most and that's the best 180 00:12:03,600 --> 00:12:06,840 Speaker 1: way I can put this. They're so hardcore anti communist 181 00:12:07,000 --> 00:12:09,439 Speaker 1: it makes me a little uncomfortable. And they have the 182 00:12:09,559 --> 00:12:12,600 Speaker 1: hugest selection of natural herbal supplements I've ever seen in 183 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,800 Speaker 1: my life, and they are obsessive about making sure they're 184 00:12:15,840 --> 00:12:22,679 Speaker 1: the best.

In case 197 00:13:02,960 --> 00:13:06,160 Speaker 1: you're wondering, Yes, it's on the soundboard and I would 198 00:13:06,200 --> 00:13:09,240 Speaker 1: get ready to hear a whole lot of that now. 199 00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:14,040 Speaker 1: So you know how I tell you things I think, 200 00:13:14,120 --> 00:13:16,959 Speaker 1: and I tell you things I know. I tell you 201 00:13:17,000 --> 00:13:18,840 Speaker 1: when I have a theory on something with nothing to 202 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:21,640 Speaker 1: back it up, I'm very honest about that. And then 203 00:13:21,679 --> 00:13:24,920 Speaker 1: I tell you when I know something, well, I know something, 204 00:13:25,760 --> 00:13:30,800 Speaker 1: and we have trouble coming. It's bad trouble, and it's 205 00:13:30,800 --> 00:13:32,839 Speaker 1: something we're going to have to address and get out 206 00:13:32,840 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 1: in front of. Now, Mitch McConnell, as you know, is 207 00:13:37,640 --> 00:13:43,000 Speaker 1: done leading the GOP Senate, probably just going to retire. 208 00:13:43,040 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: But even if not, he's done. He lost that he 209 00:13:46,520 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 1: doesn't have enough support anymore. And now there are already 210 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:57,160 Speaker 1: campaigning behind the scenes to choose the next leader of 211 00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 1: the GOP Senate. Whether that happens to be the majority 212 00:14:00,840 --> 00:14:04,080 Speaker 1: leader or minority leader, we won't know until after the 213 00:14:04,080 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 1: November election, but we are choosing the leader of the 214 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:13,240 Speaker 1: next Senate. And I have had now multiple sources who 215 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,360 Speaker 1: would know. You're gonna have to trust me on that. 216 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 1: Tell me that John Cornyan of Texas is the odds 217 00:14:23,120 --> 00:14:26,960 Speaker 1: on favorite as we sit here to be the next 218 00:14:27,560 --> 00:14:34,200 Speaker 1: GOP leader of the Senate. This is disastrous on a 219 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:39,640 Speaker 1: level I can't even properly explain to you. John Cornyn, 220 00:14:41,200 --> 00:14:48,040 Speaker 1: like Mitch McConnell before him, is a loyal system servant. 221 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:54,640 Speaker 1: He will do the systems bidding at every turn. If 222 00:14:54,880 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 1: by a miracle from God, we actually do get a 223 00:14:58,280 --> 00:15:01,480 Speaker 1: decent piece of legislation, which you really never get. But 224 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:03,920 Speaker 1: if we ever were to actually get one of those, 225 00:15:04,640 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: John Cornyn would use his position of power to neotera 226 00:15:09,960 --> 00:15:13,520 Speaker 1: said legislation, whatever it was. If there was ever anything 227 00:15:13,600 --> 00:15:17,040 Speaker 1: with teeth that went after the deep state in any way, 228 00:15:17,600 --> 00:15:21,640 Speaker 1: what's a good example of defunding the FBI. That's something 229 00:15:21,640 --> 00:15:24,600 Speaker 1: that has to happen. We cannot have an FBI and 230 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:27,760 Speaker 1: continue as a free country. We cannot if you were 231 00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:31,200 Speaker 1: to ever actually get any cut to the FBI, I 232 00:15:31,200 --> 00:15:34,920 Speaker 1: don't even mean defunding it a ten twenty percent cut. 233 00:15:35,160 --> 00:15:38,120 Speaker 1: If that ever landed on John Cornyn's desk, he would 234 00:15:38,160 --> 00:15:44,440 Speaker 1: stop that legislation immediately. That's how hopeless, evil, corrupt, and 235 00:15:44,520 --> 00:15:50,320 Speaker 1: compromised John Cornyn is. And if the Communists ever wanted 236 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:54,560 Speaker 1: a piece of legislation through, John Cornyan would massage it 237 00:15:55,200 --> 00:15:58,200 Speaker 1: to the point where it would get past the exact 238 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:03,080 Speaker 1: same way he worked to pass gun control legislation in 239 00:16:03,120 --> 00:16:06,440 Speaker 1: the wake of the Uvalde shooting. After that horrible Uvaldi 240 00:16:06,560 --> 00:16:09,440 Speaker 1: school shooting, when the Communist demons were doing what they 241 00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,000 Speaker 1: always do, which is jump on the bodies of dead 242 00:16:12,080 --> 00:16:16,080 Speaker 1: kids to try to grab guns. Mitch McConnell also tried 243 00:16:16,120 --> 00:16:19,280 Speaker 1: to use that as an opportunity to grab guns. And 244 00:16:19,320 --> 00:16:23,520 Speaker 1: who did he turn to to spearhead the effort, John Cornan. 245 00:16:24,000 --> 00:16:28,120 Speaker 1: John Cornyan is the one responsible. Whenever you hear Joe 246 00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,640 Speaker 1: Biden Bragg about the gun control legislation he passed, and 247 00:16:31,720 --> 00:16:34,280 Speaker 1: he did pass it, and he does brag about it 248 00:16:34,320 --> 00:16:36,480 Speaker 1: all the time. You know who you can thank for that, 249 00:16:37,080 --> 00:16:42,360 Speaker 1: John Cornan. If John Cornyan is the next GOP leader 250 00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,840 Speaker 1: of the House, you might as well take that Maga 251 00:16:44,840 --> 00:16:48,080 Speaker 1: hat and walk down to the local incinerator and toss 252 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,160 Speaker 1: it rightly right in because Trump will be able to 253 00:16:51,280 --> 00:16:57,120 Speaker 1: do nothing of consequence, zero zip, zilch nothing. It'll be 254 00:16:57,200 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 1: executive order this and executive Order that, all of which 255 00:17:00,960 --> 00:17:05,080 Speaker 1: will be overturned immediately by the next Democrat president. If 256 00:17:05,119 --> 00:17:10,040 Speaker 1: you want any lasting good or lasting change done under 257 00:17:10,080 --> 00:17:13,400 Speaker 1: a potential Donald Trump presidency, if we happen to get 258 00:17:13,440 --> 00:17:16,879 Speaker 1: one of those, if John Cornyn is the GOP leader 259 00:17:16,880 --> 00:17:21,320 Speaker 1: in the Senate, you can kiss those dreams bye bye gone. 260 00:17:22,400 --> 00:17:28,480 Speaker 1: They are gone. You could not possibly find a more disgusting, 261 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 1: disgraceful swamp rat than John Cornyn. And to be the 262 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:37,119 Speaker 1: leader in the Senate comes with such an inhuman amount 263 00:17:37,160 --> 00:17:39,680 Speaker 1: of power. I don't even have enough time to break 264 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:42,480 Speaker 1: it all down for you on the show tonight. What 265 00:17:42,560 --> 00:17:46,720 Speaker 1: that means. As far as committee appointments, we're talking judges, 266 00:17:47,000 --> 00:17:49,680 Speaker 1: you know, the judges that are busy destroying the country 267 00:17:49,880 --> 00:17:53,439 Speaker 1: because they always get approved by Republican losers. John Cornyan 268 00:17:53,480 --> 00:17:57,119 Speaker 1: would have a never ending revolving door of filthy communists 269 00:17:57,160 --> 00:18:02,440 Speaker 1: coming through there. The damage would be unending. It would 270 00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:07,440 Speaker 1: be worse than Mitch McConnell has been worse. And this 271 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:11,960 Speaker 1: is not some far fetched thing. I got confirmation this weekend. 272 00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:17,000 Speaker 1: If the vote were held today, it would be John Cornyn. 273 00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:23,680 Speaker 1: This is the biggest deal in the world. We're gonna 274 00:18:23,680 --> 00:18:28,640 Speaker 1: discuss why it's John Cornyn, what we can do about it, 275 00:18:30,000 --> 00:18:32,200 Speaker 1: and break a little bit of that down in a moment, 276 00:18:32,200 --> 00:18:35,639 Speaker 1: all right, because we are not helpless here. Before we 277 00:18:35,720 --> 00:18:40,040 Speaker 1: get to that, let's save a life. Been upset about 278 00:18:40,119 --> 00:18:42,320 Speaker 1: enough tonight, Let's go ahead and save a life. Remember 279 00:18:42,720 --> 00:18:46,359 Speaker 1: the battle for the unborn. It's not just a battle 280 00:18:46,359 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 1: of elections or legislation that stuff's fine, ban this or 281 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 1: elect that that's fine. It's a battle to change the 282 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:57,320 Speaker 1: hearts of Americans, to get Americans to stop seeing that 283 00:18:57,520 --> 00:19:01,479 Speaker 1: baby as a burden or a clump of cells, or 284 00:19:01,680 --> 00:19:05,040 Speaker 1: something that's going to ruin my life. Start looking at 285 00:19:05,080 --> 00:19:11,280 Speaker 1: it as what it is, a God breathed life, a 286 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,639 Speaker 1: life inside of a mother. How do we get that 287 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 1: truth to people? Ultrasound It's probably the greatest weapon in 288 00:19:17,640 --> 00:19:21,639 Speaker 1: the pro life movement, ultrasound Preborn. They walk into the 289 00:19:21,680 --> 00:19:24,679 Speaker 1: highest abortion areas in the country and they offer these 290 00:19:24,720 --> 00:19:27,840 Speaker 1: women free ultrasounds. Hey, how about a free ultrasound before 291 00:19:27,880 --> 00:19:30,520 Speaker 1: you hurt that baby. If a woman lays down and 292 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:33,159 Speaker 1: here's that ultrasound, she chooses life almost every time. Did 293 00:19:33,200 --> 00:19:36,080 Speaker 1: you know that when you give twenty eight dollars to preborn, 294 00:19:36,119 --> 00:19:41,880 Speaker 1: you're saving a life.

I'm gonna get to what we need 308 00:20:27,560 --> 00:20:30,400 Speaker 1: to do here in a minute, but let's discuss the why, 309 00:20:30,440 --> 00:20:34,200 Speaker 1: because whenever I talk about the guys like this, why 310 00:20:34,280 --> 00:20:36,120 Speaker 1: why is this the way? Why can't we have this? 311 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:38,919 Speaker 1: And probably I bet you you're screaming at the radio 312 00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:43,800 Speaker 1: and saying somebody who you like? Maybe you're sitting there, 313 00:20:43,800 --> 00:20:46,280 Speaker 1: no Mike Lee or no Ted Cruz. No, we need 314 00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:49,120 Speaker 1: brand Paul, we need Josh Howley, we need maybe you're 315 00:20:49,160 --> 00:20:53,200 Speaker 1: doing that Ron Johnson picked pick your senator. Remember how 316 00:20:53,240 --> 00:20:55,440 Speaker 1: you get into leadership, And in fact, I'm gonna tell 317 00:20:55,480 --> 00:20:57,800 Speaker 1: you a story about this in just a moment that 318 00:20:57,880 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 1: really it really drives home how it works in DC. 319 00:21:03,240 --> 00:21:08,000 Speaker 1: You get into leadership by raising a ton of money, 320 00:21:08,680 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 1: You then spread that money around to other Republicans who 321 00:21:13,000 --> 00:21:18,159 Speaker 1: are running senators, House members, potential Republicans who are running. 322 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:22,800 Speaker 1: You're raising campaign money. You spend some on yourself, yes, 323 00:21:22,840 --> 00:21:25,439 Speaker 1: but that's not where the real power is bought. You 324 00:21:25,520 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: buy that power by spreading it around to others. Once 325 00:21:30,040 --> 00:21:33,080 Speaker 1: you do enough of that, enough people owe you favors. 326 00:21:33,400 --> 00:21:36,960 Speaker 1: When it comes time to elect a new leader, they're 327 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,520 Speaker 1: going to remember the favor. I know that's awful. It 328 00:21:40,640 --> 00:21:44,720 Speaker 1: is awful, but that is how it works. Mitch McConnell 329 00:21:44,760 --> 00:21:49,000 Speaker 1: is there not because of his wonderful ability to give speeches. 330 00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 1: Mitch McConnell's the GOP leader because he raises gobs of 331 00:21:54,680 --> 00:21:57,560 Speaker 1: money and hands it out to other Republicans to help 332 00:21:57,600 --> 00:22:00,880 Speaker 1: them get elected. That's how you get to leadership. That's 333 00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:04,920 Speaker 1: how you stay in leadership. Nancy Pelosi grandma vodka. What's 334 00:22:04,960 --> 00:22:08,879 Speaker 1: her specialty? This is not an attempt to ban TikTok, 335 00:22:09,119 --> 00:22:13,160 Speaker 1: It's an attempt to make TikTok better. T tech toe 336 00:22:13,359 --> 00:22:19,560 Speaker 1: a winner, a winner. Her specialty is drinking vodka. No, 337 00:22:19,600 --> 00:22:24,080 Speaker 1: I'm kidding. No, her specialty is raising money. That's how 338 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: that woman has been in such positions of power. For 339 00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 1: so long. She is a fund raising machine. She raises 340 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:36,120 Speaker 1: gobs of money and hands it out to every Democrat 341 00:22:36,200 --> 00:22:39,840 Speaker 1: running for office, buying favors. How could it be guys 342 00:22:39,880 --> 00:22:43,760 Speaker 1: like John Cornyn and Mitch McConnell in leadership. They raise 343 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:47,280 Speaker 1: a ton of money and they hand it out. Now, 344 00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:50,000 Speaker 1: let's discuss the why. It's not the ones you want. 345 00:22:50,080 --> 00:22:52,600 Speaker 1: Why Why isn't it Cruz or Holly or whoever you 346 00:22:52,680 --> 00:22:54,480 Speaker 1: happen to like, whoever it may be. Why isn't it 347 00:22:54,520 --> 00:23:00,199 Speaker 1: that those guys don't raise that much money? And part 348 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:03,719 Speaker 1: of the reason those guys don't raise that much money 349 00:23:04,560 --> 00:23:07,840 Speaker 1: is they are more hesitant to do things that support 350 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:11,879 Speaker 1: the system. John Cornyn is part of the system, a 351 00:23:11,920 --> 00:23:15,359 Speaker 1: defender of the system. He's got his system membership card. 352 00:23:15,680 --> 00:23:19,520 Speaker 1: And when you have your system membership card, it's easier 353 00:23:19,600 --> 00:23:23,919 Speaker 1: to raise tons and tons of money. All this is 354 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,920 Speaker 1: a vicious little circle. And what I'm trying to say 355 00:23:27,040 --> 00:23:30,760 Speaker 1: is it's difficult to break that circle. It's hard to 356 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:34,719 Speaker 1: get someone in a position of power in GOP leadership 357 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:38,000 Speaker 1: who will fight against the system because to get there, 358 00:23:38,040 --> 00:23:40,160 Speaker 1: they kind of have to be a member of the system. 359 00:23:40,400 --> 00:23:43,800 Speaker 1: And the people you love that guy. Whoever you're yelling at. 360 00:23:43,840 --> 00:23:46,119 Speaker 1: Maybe it's Marsha Blackburn, whoever, I want herd around. I 361 00:23:46,119 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 1: want the person you want in there. They don't run 362 00:23:49,280 --> 00:23:52,720 Speaker 1: for it. They don't want to raise the money or that, 363 00:23:52,880 --> 00:23:55,280 Speaker 1: or they can't raise the money and they don't run 364 00:23:55,359 --> 00:23:57,840 Speaker 1: for it. And so let's get to what you have 365 00:23:57,920 --> 00:23:59,680 Speaker 1: to do before I get to my own story. A 366 00:23:59,720 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 1: store I told a long time ago, but I'm gonna 367 00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:08,119 Speaker 1: tell it again now. Right now is the time to 368 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:13,280 Speaker 1: make your voice heard. This is the social media era, 369 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:16,560 Speaker 1: and there are so many negatives that come with it 370 00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:20,359 Speaker 1: being the social media era. I get that. That's why 371 00:24:20,800 --> 00:24:23,640 Speaker 1: you should go subscribe to my YouTube channel, YouTube dot 372 00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:26,919 Speaker 1: com slash Jesse KELLYDC. Now I'm kidding. Now, actually go 373 00:24:26,960 --> 00:24:28,760 Speaker 1: subscribe to it. But that's not what I'm doing. I know. 374 00:24:28,800 --> 00:24:31,000 Speaker 1: There's all kinds of negative that comes with it being 375 00:24:31,040 --> 00:24:34,520 Speaker 1: the social media era. I get that. But one of 376 00:24:34,560 --> 00:24:40,639 Speaker 1: the benefits is you really can speak to powerful people. 377 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:45,439 Speaker 1: I watched I think it was over the weekend. Jd Vance. 378 00:24:45,800 --> 00:24:49,720 Speaker 1: Jdvance is a United States Senator from Ohio. He is 379 00:24:50,520 --> 00:24:54,679 Speaker 1: possibly probably the next Vice President of the United States 380 00:24:54,720 --> 00:25:00,520 Speaker 1: of America. He said something online a woman got I 381 00:25:00,520 --> 00:25:01,920 Speaker 1: don't know who she is, and I'm not going to 382 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:05,200 Speaker 1: blast her name, but she got online and she blasted 383 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:09,399 Speaker 1: jd Vance for something he had said. Jd Vance not 384 00:25:09,440 --> 00:25:13,199 Speaker 1: a staffer. Jd Vance himself got on there and responded, 385 00:25:14,560 --> 00:25:18,320 Speaker 1: you can talk to your senator, whoever he may be. 386 00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:21,080 Speaker 1: It doesn't have to be a phone call to his office, 387 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:24,040 Speaker 1: although that's fine. It doesn't have to be an email, 388 00:25:24,240 --> 00:25:27,879 Speaker 1: although that's fine. But your senator, if you have a 389 00:25:27,960 --> 00:25:32,520 Speaker 1: Republican one, your senator needs to begin feeling heat from 390 00:25:32,560 --> 00:25:36,960 Speaker 1: you right now, and that heat had better be No 391 00:25:37,200 --> 00:25:41,640 Speaker 1: John Cornyn, no John Thune. Just remember no to the Johns. 392 00:25:42,160 --> 00:25:45,840 Speaker 1: No John Cornyn, no John Thune. We're stuck with these 393 00:25:46,000 --> 00:25:49,560 Speaker 1: rhino losers from these red states because Red state go 394 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:52,800 Speaker 1: pears are the dumbest people in the United States of 395 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:55,840 Speaker 1: America because they can't ever show up for a primary, 396 00:25:55,960 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 1: and when they do show up for a primary, they 397 00:25:58,080 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 1: show up and vote for the scumbag who already in office. 398 00:26:01,480 --> 00:26:04,880 Speaker 1: So Republicans in Texas, I'm not talking about you. Republicans 399 00:26:04,880 --> 00:26:07,280 Speaker 1: in Texas, if they even bother to show up for 400 00:26:07,320 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 1: the primary, which they don't, they'll show up and I'll 401 00:26:09,800 --> 00:26:12,760 Speaker 1: vote for Cornyan. I saw tv AD saying he's going 402 00:26:12,840 --> 00:26:15,600 Speaker 1: to deport the illegals, and they do the exact same 403 00:26:15,640 --> 00:26:17,760 Speaker 1: thing up in the Dakotas. They do the same thing 404 00:26:17,800 --> 00:26:20,280 Speaker 1: in the Carolinas, they do the same thing in Florida. 405 00:26:20,400 --> 00:26:23,639 Speaker 1: They continue these red states to vote for losers, and 406 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:27,359 Speaker 1: it drives me nuts. Anyway, your senator, whoever it may be, 407 00:26:28,480 --> 00:26:31,399 Speaker 1: if you have a Republican one, you need to get 408 00:26:31,440 --> 00:26:35,159 Speaker 1: in front of this and let him know he better 409 00:26:35,200 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 1: not vote for John Cornyan or John Thune. And I 410 00:26:39,119 --> 00:26:44,879 Speaker 1: want to once again reiterate this. If John Cornyn is 411 00:26:44,920 --> 00:26:48,399 Speaker 1: the next GOP leader, whether he's a minority leader or 412 00:26:48,560 --> 00:26:55,320 Speaker 1: majority leader, you have exactly zero percent chance to get 413 00:26:55,560 --> 00:27:00,800 Speaker 1: any legislation through that has any teeth at all against 414 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: the deep state. Because he is a card carrying member 415 00:27:04,520 --> 00:27:07,520 Speaker 1: of the deep state of the system. It will be 416 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:12,640 Speaker 1: impossible for anyone, including Donald Trump, to do something lasting 417 00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 1: in tangible against the deep State if John Cornyn is 418 00:27:17,200 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 1: able to use that position of power against them, and 419 00:27:19,920 --> 00:27:25,280 Speaker 1: he will. He will. In fact, you could argue, you 420 00:27:25,320 --> 00:27:30,600 Speaker 1: could argue this is the ultimate move from a system 421 00:27:31,320 --> 00:27:34,760 Speaker 1: that thinks it's going to lose the presidency. The system 422 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:36,960 Speaker 1: doesn't want to lose the presidency. They want Dome to win. 423 00:27:37,040 --> 00:27:39,120 Speaker 1: They want Kamala Harris. Go ahead, I want Kamala Heris. 424 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:41,399 Speaker 1: I want come Aris. That's what they want. But if 425 00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 1: it doesn't look like it's going to happen, and let's 426 00:27:44,280 --> 00:27:46,680 Speaker 1: be honest, after tomorrow night, it might not happen. 427 00:27:47,800 --> 00:27:51,000 Speaker 2: Are because this is I'm just gonna speak, Okay, So this. 428 00:27:50,960 --> 00:27:55,840 Speaker 1: Is if you can't have the presidency, and maybe even 429 00:27:55,880 --> 00:27:59,680 Speaker 1: you'll lose the Senate, that sucks if you're part of 430 00:27:59,680 --> 00:28:05,000 Speaker 1: the CYT. But the next best thing would be making 431 00:28:05,040 --> 00:28:09,520 Speaker 1: sure the GOP leader is somebody who will do your 432 00:28:09,520 --> 00:28:15,600 Speaker 1: bidding and prevent any fatal wounds to the scam you 433 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:18,680 Speaker 1: have going. That's really how you need to look at 434 00:28:18,680 --> 00:28:23,440 Speaker 1: guys like John Cornyn and John Thune. They are shields 435 00:28:23,720 --> 00:28:28,360 Speaker 1: for the system, the ultimate in controlled opposition, where they'll 436 00:28:28,440 --> 00:28:30,760 Speaker 1: they'll let they'll let you do a little this, maybe 437 00:28:30,800 --> 00:28:33,439 Speaker 1: a little tax cut there, and hey, I voted, I 438 00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:36,200 Speaker 1: voted for some border wall. You'll get that kind of thing. 439 00:28:36,240 --> 00:28:40,240 Speaker 1: But if you actually got something that was tangible with 440 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:42,760 Speaker 1: teeth to their desk, they would stop it. And the 441 00:28:42,800 --> 00:28:46,920 Speaker 1: system knows that if the system can't have president Kamala Harris. 442 00:28:47,160 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 1: The system will happily take GOP leader John Cornyn. Remember that, 443 00:28:53,120 --> 00:28:55,880 Speaker 1: And now I'll tell you a little story about how 444 00:28:55,920 --> 00:28:58,800 Speaker 1: all that money thing works, getting a little example from 445 00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 1: my own life. Hang on, it is the Jesse Kelly 446 00:29:02,680 --> 00:29:07,880 Speaker 1: Show on a Monday. Email the show Jesse at Jesse 447 00:29:08,120 --> 00:29:11,240 Speaker 1: kellyshow dot com, whatever you'd like. So we were just 448 00:29:11,280 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 1: discussing Cornyn, John Cornyn, but being the next leader potentially 449 00:29:15,680 --> 00:29:17,320 Speaker 1: in the Senate. We need to put a stop to that. 450 00:29:17,720 --> 00:29:20,480 Speaker 1: And I was talking about raising money and spreading around 451 00:29:20,520 --> 00:29:22,600 Speaker 1: and why that matters. So I'm gonna tell you a story. 452 00:29:23,240 --> 00:29:25,240 Speaker 1: I've told it before, I think once on the show, 453 00:29:25,280 --> 00:29:27,320 Speaker 1: maybe twice, but I know we have a bunch of 454 00:29:27,320 --> 00:29:29,600 Speaker 1: new listeners. So here's a little story for you, a 455 00:29:29,640 --> 00:29:31,720 Speaker 1: little story time with Jesse. This is a true story. 456 00:29:33,360 --> 00:29:38,400 Speaker 1: I ran for Congress once, well twice. I got out 457 00:29:38,440 --> 00:29:41,720 Speaker 1: of the Marine Corps back in four and you know, 458 00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:45,120 Speaker 1: I'm a construction guy, come from a construction family. I 459 00:29:45,160 --> 00:29:48,480 Speaker 1: just went back to working construction and I was going 460 00:29:48,520 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 1: to community college midnight, and that's what I was doing. 461 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,080 Speaker 1: I was working, going to school, just trying to figure 462 00:29:55,080 --> 00:29:59,120 Speaker 1: out life like everyone else, and I ended up doing 463 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:02,400 Speaker 1: a construction that was way out of town. So I 464 00:30:02,440 --> 00:30:05,520 Speaker 1: was driving hours and hours and started to consume a 465 00:30:05,520 --> 00:30:09,040 Speaker 1: lot more political talk radio and started to read a 466 00:30:09,040 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 1: lot more political stuff. I'd always read historical stuff, but 467 00:30:12,560 --> 00:30:14,800 Speaker 1: started to figure out that this Barack Obama guy is 468 00:30:14,880 --> 00:30:18,080 Speaker 1: really not good. So I got mad, and having never 469 00:30:18,120 --> 00:30:20,520 Speaker 1: been involved in politics before, I just decided to run 470 00:30:20,520 --> 00:30:22,239 Speaker 1: for Congress. I know it was really dumb thing to do, 471 00:30:22,440 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 1: but I decided to run for Congress. Now I'm running 472 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:31,600 Speaker 1: for Congress, and I'm running very early. Remember House of 473 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:35,760 Speaker 1: Representative elections are every two years. They had just had 474 00:30:35,800 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 1: the election a few months ago and I was already running, 475 00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:43,440 Speaker 1: and I was running against the incumbent Democrat in Arizona. 476 00:30:43,440 --> 00:30:45,400 Speaker 1: Her name was Gabrielle Giffords. You remember she's the one 477 00:30:45,440 --> 00:30:47,600 Speaker 1: who ended up getting shot, which is freaking horrible, but 478 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:51,400 Speaker 1: she ended up getting shot. So I run against Giffords, 479 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:53,920 Speaker 1: and I'm the only one in the race for a while, 480 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:59,160 Speaker 1: and I'm killing myself. I'm driving to every meeting, every 481 00:30:59,200 --> 00:31:02,280 Speaker 1: event wherever there are ten people gathered. I don't care 482 00:31:02,320 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 1: if it's some lame community event on a Saturday. I 483 00:31:06,000 --> 00:31:11,840 Speaker 1: am there, and I'm getting to be known. People are 484 00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,320 Speaker 1: figuring out that I am far far to the right, 485 00:31:14,440 --> 00:31:20,040 Speaker 1: that's for sure, and it's increasing. The following is increasing, 486 00:31:20,080 --> 00:31:24,320 Speaker 1: the support is increasing, and it's going well. Well, this 487 00:31:24,640 --> 00:31:30,960 Speaker 1: was before the race looked winnable. Then Barack Obama starts 488 00:31:31,080 --> 00:31:33,760 Speaker 1: tearing through the country because he had just been elected President, 489 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:38,920 Speaker 1: Obamacare spending the works, and the Tea Party movement began 490 00:31:39,040 --> 00:31:42,080 Speaker 1: to rise. This is the beginning of the Tea Party movement, 491 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:45,240 Speaker 1: and everyone in the country it didn't exactly take some 492 00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:48,400 Speaker 1: political operative to tell that this is going to be 493 00:31:48,440 --> 00:31:51,560 Speaker 1: a red wave when Obama has his first midterm election, 494 00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:54,280 Speaker 1: there's going to be a red wave here. Well, my 495 00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:57,440 Speaker 1: seat when I was running for it, originally wasn't thought 496 00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:01,200 Speaker 1: of as really winnable. It was a solidly blue district. Well, 497 00:32:01,240 --> 00:32:04,600 Speaker 1: the Tea Party thing changed, the idea changed, the mood 498 00:32:04,640 --> 00:32:08,040 Speaker 1: on that to being, hey, we might have a real 499 00:32:08,080 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 1: shot at this one. And the establishment GOP they liked 500 00:32:13,040 --> 00:32:15,360 Speaker 1: the sound of that. They did not, however, like the 501 00:32:15,400 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 1: sound of me. I was way beyond their control. They 502 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:22,440 Speaker 1: said I was irreverent and disrespectful, which that's not true. 503 00:32:22,480 --> 00:32:25,520 Speaker 1: I was totally respectful. They did not like my hardcore 504 00:32:25,560 --> 00:32:29,520 Speaker 1: immigration stance, and they said no, So they went shopping 505 00:32:29,560 --> 00:32:32,960 Speaker 1: for someone else. They found a state senator to run 506 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:36,240 Speaker 1: against me. He runs against me in the primary. They 507 00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,680 Speaker 1: throw all kinds of money at him, gobs of money, 508 00:32:38,680 --> 00:32:40,760 Speaker 1: and I couldn't figure it out the first night he 509 00:32:40,800 --> 00:32:42,800 Speaker 1: got in the race, because I was so new to politics, 510 00:32:42,880 --> 00:32:45,280 Speaker 1: I didn't understand he gets in a race. The first 511 00:32:45,400 --> 00:32:48,040 Speaker 1: night he has a party, and I think the number 512 00:32:48,080 --> 00:32:50,440 Speaker 1: six hundred thousand, but it might be five hundred thousand 513 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:52,840 Speaker 1: dollars he raised in one night. I think I'd been 514 00:32:52,920 --> 00:32:55,480 Speaker 1: running for a year and I hadn't raised close to 515 00:32:55,520 --> 00:32:58,080 Speaker 1: that in a year. I just couldn't. I'm asking people 516 00:32:58,080 --> 00:33:01,800 Speaker 1: for twenty five dollars checks. I can't do it one night, 517 00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:07,360 Speaker 1: So on Flord and end up I beat him in 518 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:11,040 Speaker 1: the primary, and I beat him solidly in the primary. 519 00:33:12,120 --> 00:33:15,400 Speaker 1: Now Arizona has this funny situation that it's a really 520 00:33:15,520 --> 00:33:19,640 Speaker 1: terrible situation where their primaries are too late. Their primaries 521 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:22,560 Speaker 1: are in August. Well, early voting pretty much starts in 522 00:33:22,600 --> 00:33:25,920 Speaker 1: September by the time the primary is over. The general elections. Here, 523 00:33:27,360 --> 00:33:31,080 Speaker 1: I win the primary. I defeat this establishment guy, pounded 524 00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:33,240 Speaker 1: him good too, just blasted him out. It was a 525 00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:35,200 Speaker 1: hardcore year. It was much more my kind of year 526 00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:37,760 Speaker 1: than his kind of year. But I have to spend 527 00:33:37,800 --> 00:33:41,160 Speaker 1: every dime. I have to blow him out. I beat 528 00:33:41,240 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 1: him after the primary. Now I'm officially the GOP nominee 529 00:33:47,240 --> 00:33:50,320 Speaker 1: for the House of Representatives. And it was then it 530 00:33:50,360 --> 00:33:53,120 Speaker 1: was District eight of Arizona. It was Congressional District eight. 531 00:33:53,160 --> 00:33:56,160 Speaker 1: All the lines have been redrawn. It was Tucson, Tucson 532 00:33:56,240 --> 00:33:59,040 Speaker 1: Sierra Vista, the southeast corner of Arizona is where all 533 00:33:59,040 --> 00:34:02,840 Speaker 1: this took place. I win. I've spent all my money, 534 00:34:03,080 --> 00:34:05,640 Speaker 1: and now I have to take on the Democrat machine. 535 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 1: I have to take on Gabrielle Gifford's in the Democrat machine, 536 00:34:09,120 --> 00:34:13,279 Speaker 1: and she was famously an excellent fundraiser anyway. Democrats raise 537 00:34:13,320 --> 00:34:15,800 Speaker 1: a ton of money anyway, So it was an uphill battle. 538 00:34:17,640 --> 00:34:23,880 Speaker 1: Primary ends. No money comes in. My hardcore supporters, my 539 00:34:24,000 --> 00:34:27,800 Speaker 1: hardcore donors, they were of course there, but there aren't 540 00:34:27,920 --> 00:34:29,520 Speaker 1: enough of those. And I didn't know a bunch of 541 00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:32,239 Speaker 1: rich guys from a construction family. What do I know. 542 00:34:32,280 --> 00:34:36,320 Speaker 1: I don't know any of these people, and no money's 543 00:34:36,360 --> 00:34:40,839 Speaker 1: coming in. I'm completely lost by this again. I'm young 544 00:34:41,440 --> 00:34:46,120 Speaker 1: figuring out how all this works. I'm completely confused. I'm 545 00:34:46,239 --> 00:34:51,480 Speaker 1: the GOP nominee. I'm officially the nominee. Why is the 546 00:34:51,640 --> 00:34:58,239 Speaker 1: GOP not raising me money? Why are traditional GOP donors 547 00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:02,240 Speaker 1: not raising me money? In your area? Wherever you're listening 548 00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 1: to the sound of my voice, there are donors. Depends 549 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:07,919 Speaker 1: on the size of your area. Maybe there are ten 550 00:35:07,960 --> 00:35:10,840 Speaker 1: of them, maybe there are one hundred of them. It 551 00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:13,920 Speaker 1: really depends on where you are. But there are known 552 00:35:14,719 --> 00:35:19,480 Speaker 1: GOP mega donors in your area. They're the rich men 553 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:22,920 Speaker 1: and women who can be counted on to write max 554 00:35:23,160 --> 00:35:27,279 Speaker 1: checks to any campaign when they're called upon. They're the 555 00:35:27,360 --> 00:35:30,920 Speaker 1: guys you bank the money ahead of time. They're the guys. 556 00:35:31,200 --> 00:35:34,480 Speaker 1: A GOP senator in my state, I'm using him as 557 00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 1: an example. This does not take place here, and he's 558 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 1: not doing this, but in my state. I live in 559 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 1: the Houston area. Ted Cruz is someone I know, and 560 00:35:42,520 --> 00:35:45,480 Speaker 1: he's a senator from this state. I promise you Ted 561 00:35:45,560 --> 00:35:49,080 Speaker 1: Cruz has on his phone the ability to call or 562 00:35:49,160 --> 00:35:52,920 Speaker 1: group text one hundred people in the Houston area right 563 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 1: now and get me a MAX donation for my upcoming 564 00:35:56,160 --> 00:35:58,960 Speaker 1: congressional campaign. Don't get excited. I'm not running for congress. 565 00:35:59,000 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 1: But if I wasn't, if Ted wanted to, he could 566 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:04,799 Speaker 1: do that. That's how every area works. There are some 567 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:07,640 Speaker 1: people they're just banked on it, and I had There 568 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:09,880 Speaker 1: was the same down in Tucson too, exact same in 569 00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:13,320 Speaker 1: my area. I finished the primary. I'm the nominee. Giffords 570 00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 1: is crucifying me on television every day, telling old people 571 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:19,560 Speaker 1: I'm going to take away their Medicare and Social Security. 572 00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:23,280 Speaker 1: I don't have any ads responding, and there's no money 573 00:36:23,320 --> 00:36:28,960 Speaker 1: coming in. It's gone. And that's when that's when I 574 00:36:29,040 --> 00:36:33,719 Speaker 1: found out how leadership works, the GOP leadership works, how 575 00:36:33,719 --> 00:36:36,960 Speaker 1: the favors work, how the money actually works. I've finished 576 00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:39,719 Speaker 1: this story. In just a moment. Before I finish that story, 577 00:36:39,800 --> 00:36:43,680 Speaker 1: let me do this. Speaking of money, you're trying to 578 00:36:43,719 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 1: save any right now. Look, if you're flushed with cash, 579 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:49,839 Speaker 1: this probably doesn't apply to you unless you just feel 580 00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:52,759 Speaker 1: like funding dirty comedies. But if you're trying to save 581 00:36:52,840 --> 00:36:55,279 Speaker 1: some money, you should switch your cell phone service to 582 00:36:55,320 --> 00:37:00,719 Speaker 1: Pure Talk. Pure Talk has a million benefits. One, it's 583 00:37:00,760 --> 00:37:03,880 Speaker 1: not Verizon at and to your T Mobile. Those are 584 00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:07,479 Speaker 1: horrible companies they hate you. So that's one, but two, 585 00:37:09,000 --> 00:37:12,840 Speaker 1: Pure Talk saves you money. You know why those cell phones, 586 00:37:13,360 --> 00:37:15,920 Speaker 1: those cell phone companies are so expensive because they have 587 00:37:15,960 --> 00:37:19,720 Speaker 1: a new store on every single street corner. Puretalk cuts 588 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,359 Speaker 1: that out. You handle it all by phone and mail 589 00:37:22,600 --> 00:37:24,879 Speaker 1: and your bill. My bill got cut in half when 590 00:37:24,880 --> 00:37:26,600 Speaker 1: I switched to T Mobile. Do you want to save 591 00:37:26,680 --> 00:37:28,759 Speaker 1: money right now? Don't we all need to save money 592 00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:31,680 Speaker 1: right now? Pure Talk's how you do that.

Dial 595 00:37:37,680 --> 00:37:43,440 Speaker 1: pound two five zero and say Jesse Kelly pound two 596 00:37:43,640 --> 00:37:47,080 Speaker 1: five zero, say Jesse Kelly. That'll save you even more. 597 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:50,200 Speaker 1: That saves you fifty percent off your first month. All right, 598 00:37:50,200 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 1: I'll continue my story next
