WEBVTT - Hour 2: A System Loyalist

0:00:11.039 --> 0:00:16.760
<v Speaker 1>This is a Jesse Kelly show. It is the Jesse

0:00:16.920 --> 0:00:21.200
<v Speaker 1>Kelly Show. Another hour of the Jesse Kelly Show on

0:00:21.239 --> 0:00:24.200
<v Speaker 1>a Monday. And here's what we got this hour. I

0:00:24.320 --> 0:00:28.240
<v Speaker 1>have a a thing a little Birdie told me that's

0:00:28.280 --> 0:00:31.960
<v Speaker 1>going to require your attention and my attention. That's coming

0:00:32.040 --> 0:00:35.680
<v Speaker 1>up right after Medal of Honor Monday, which we are

0:00:35.720 --> 0:00:39.959
<v Speaker 1>about to do right now. Remember this, Yes, you can

0:00:40.000 --> 0:00:42.839
<v Speaker 1>email the show love hate, death threats, but you can

0:00:42.880 --> 0:00:46.519
<v Speaker 1>also email the show any medal of honor citation you

0:00:46.600 --> 0:00:50.120
<v Speaker 1>may like or recommend or have a relation relation to you.

0:00:50.520 --> 0:00:54.040
<v Speaker 1>That's totally fine. This one was sent into us here

0:00:54.440 --> 0:00:57.080
<v Speaker 1>and it's a doozy. It's from Vietnam. These Vietnam ones

0:00:57.120 --> 0:01:00.560
<v Speaker 1>always they're just there's something those Vietnam. So that's what

0:01:00.560 --> 0:01:01.880
<v Speaker 1>we're about to do. We're about to do Medal of

0:01:01.880 --> 0:01:04.520
<v Speaker 1>Honor Monday, and then we have some work to do.

0:01:04.600 --> 0:01:09.319
<v Speaker 1>You and I some emails. The Harris campaign falling behind

0:01:09.360 --> 0:01:12.280
<v Speaker 1>with male voters even more. All that is still to

0:01:12.319 --> 0:01:15.200
<v Speaker 1>come on the world famous Jesse Kelly Show. But without

0:01:15.280 --> 0:01:18.560
<v Speaker 1>further ado, let us do the Medal of Honor citation.

0:01:18.720 --> 0:01:23.120
<v Speaker 1>Let us revere a hero. Remember his name, Remember his deeds.

0:01:23.640 --> 0:01:26.720
<v Speaker 1>Let's talk to our kids about him and show them

0:01:26.920 --> 0:01:29.800
<v Speaker 1>that that guy, that's who you want to be like.

0:01:29.880 --> 0:01:33.959
<v Speaker 1>You want to be like A William Atkinson Atkinson Jones

0:01:34.200 --> 0:01:36.320
<v Speaker 1>the third US Air Force.

0:01:36.200 --> 0:01:41.560
<v Speaker 2>Right Hey, honoring those who went above and beyond It's

0:01:41.680 --> 0:01:55.240
<v Speaker 2>Medal of Honor Monday.

0:01:49.680 --> 0:01:53.600
<v Speaker 1>For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity and action at the risk

0:01:53.640 --> 0:01:55.800
<v Speaker 1>of his life above and beyond the call of duty.

0:01:56.160 --> 0:01:59.440
<v Speaker 1>Colonel Jones distinguished himself as the pilot of an A

0:01:59.640 --> 0:02:04.960
<v Speaker 1>one a H Skyraider aircraft near Dong Hoy, North Vietnam

0:02:05.320 --> 0:02:08.800
<v Speaker 1>on that day as the onseen commander in the attempted

0:02:08.880 --> 0:02:12.920
<v Speaker 1>rescue of a downed US pilot. Colonel jones aircraft was

0:02:12.960 --> 0:02:17.200
<v Speaker 1>repeatedly hit by heavy and accurate anti anti aircraft fire.

0:02:18.080 --> 0:02:21.200
<v Speaker 1>On one of his low passes, Colonel Jones felt an

0:02:21.240 --> 0:02:26.560
<v Speaker 1>explosion beneath his aircraft and his cockpit rapidly filled with smoke.

0:02:27.480 --> 0:02:31.239
<v Speaker 1>With complete disregard of the possibility that his aircraft might

0:02:31.280 --> 0:02:35.960
<v Speaker 1>still be burning, he unhesitatingly continued his search for the

0:02:36.000 --> 0:02:40.520
<v Speaker 1>downed pilot. On this pass, he sighted the survivor and

0:02:40.720 --> 0:02:44.840
<v Speaker 1>a multiple and a multiple barrel gun position firing at

0:02:44.880 --> 0:02:48.840
<v Speaker 1>him from near the top of a karst formation. He

0:02:48.880 --> 0:02:51.959
<v Speaker 1>could not attack the gun position on that pass for

0:02:52.000 --> 0:02:56.640
<v Speaker 1>fear he would endanger the downed pilot, leaving himself exposed

0:02:56.800 --> 0:03:00.400
<v Speaker 1>to the gun position. Colonel Jones attacked the position with

0:03:00.600 --> 0:03:04.960
<v Speaker 1>cannon and rocket fire on two successive passes. On his

0:03:05.120 --> 0:03:08.800
<v Speaker 1>second pass, the aircraft was hit with multiple rounds of

0:03:08.840 --> 0:03:14.240
<v Speaker 1>automatic weapons fire. One round impacted the Yankee extraction system

0:03:14.360 --> 0:03:19.760
<v Speaker 1>rocket mounted directly behind the headrest, igniting the rocket. His

0:03:20.919 --> 0:03:24.760
<v Speaker 1>aircraft was observed to burst into flames in the center

0:03:24.840 --> 0:03:30.160
<v Speaker 1>fuselage section. With flames engulfing the cockpit area, he pulled

0:03:30.160 --> 0:03:35.240
<v Speaker 1>the extraction handle, jettising the canopy. Jettisoning the canopy, the

0:03:35.400 --> 0:03:38.800
<v Speaker 1>influx of fresh air made the fire burn with greater

0:03:38.920 --> 0:03:42.880
<v Speaker 1>intensity for a few moments, but since the rocket mortar

0:03:42.920 --> 0:03:46.640
<v Speaker 1>had already burned, the extraction system did not pull Colonel

0:03:46.720 --> 0:03:51.560
<v Speaker 1>Jones from the aircraft. Despite searing pains from severe burns

0:03:51.600 --> 0:03:56.960
<v Speaker 1>sustained on his arms, hands, legs, shoulder, and face, Colonel

0:03:57.040 --> 0:04:01.040
<v Speaker 1>Jones pulled his aircraft into a climb and attempted to

0:04:01.160 --> 0:04:04.960
<v Speaker 1>transmit the location of the down pilot and the enemy

0:04:04.960 --> 0:04:09.000
<v Speaker 1>gun position to the other aircraft in the area. His

0:04:09.160 --> 0:04:14.240
<v Speaker 1>calls were blocked by other aircraft transmissions, repeatedly directing him

0:04:14.240 --> 0:04:18.480
<v Speaker 1>to bail out, and within seconds his transmitters were disabled

0:04:18.680 --> 0:04:23.720
<v Speaker 1>and he could receive only on one channel. Completely disregarding

0:04:23.760 --> 0:04:28.440
<v Speaker 1>his injuries, he elected to fly his crippled aircraft back

0:04:28.520 --> 0:04:32.120
<v Speaker 1>to his base and pass on essential information for the

0:04:32.160 --> 0:04:37.159
<v Speaker 1>rescue rather than bail out. Colonel Jones successfully landed his

0:04:37.279 --> 0:04:41.240
<v Speaker 1>heavily damaged aircraft and passed the information to a debriefing

0:04:41.279 --> 0:04:46.200
<v Speaker 1>officer while on the operating table Geez. As a result

0:04:46.240 --> 0:04:50.200
<v Speaker 1>of the heroic actions and complete disregard for his personal safety,

0:04:50.440 --> 0:04:54.680
<v Speaker 1>the down pilot was rescued later in the day. Colonel

0:04:54.720 --> 0:04:57.680
<v Speaker 1>Jones profound concern for his fellow man at the risk

0:04:57.720 --> 0:05:00.800
<v Speaker 1>of his life above and beyond the call of are

0:05:00.800 --> 0:05:03.599
<v Speaker 1>in keeping with the highest traditions of the US Air Force,

0:05:03.880 --> 0:05:07.320
<v Speaker 1>and reflect great credit upon himself in the armed forces

0:05:07.600 --> 0:05:12.680
<v Speaker 1>of his country. Now, I don't have a ton to

0:05:12.720 --> 0:05:15.840
<v Speaker 1>say about that jaw dropping story, except I will say this.

0:05:16.920 --> 0:05:18.200
<v Speaker 1>Remember I told you I had to go to a

0:05:18.720 --> 0:05:21.760
<v Speaker 1>baseball game. It was a political thing, a baseball game

0:05:21.800 --> 0:05:24.000
<v Speaker 1>on Friday night. Well, I had to fly out of

0:05:24.040 --> 0:05:28.520
<v Speaker 1>town for it, and I was actually in Dallas and

0:05:29.240 --> 0:05:34.520
<v Speaker 1>Dallas right by one of their airports, they have a

0:05:34.680 --> 0:05:37.559
<v Speaker 1>flight museum. I know there are several flight museums around

0:05:37.560 --> 0:05:40.680
<v Speaker 1>the country, and you know, I'm a huge nerd. I

0:05:40.720 --> 0:05:43.920
<v Speaker 1>can't help it. I had a couple hours to kill

0:05:44.080 --> 0:05:47.560
<v Speaker 1>until my flight, so I was excited about going to

0:05:47.600 --> 0:05:50.480
<v Speaker 1>the museum. I realize other people go to the movies

0:05:50.600 --> 0:05:52.599
<v Speaker 1>or the bar. I went to the freaking flight museum.

0:05:52.640 --> 0:05:54.080
<v Speaker 1>What are you gonna do, sue me? I am who

0:05:54.120 --> 0:05:57.839
<v Speaker 1>I am. But I'm walking around this flight museum and

0:05:57.880 --> 0:06:01.960
<v Speaker 1>they have all these planes there, fighter jets, They have

0:06:02.040 --> 0:06:06.200
<v Speaker 1>a bunch of NASA stuff there, but they have prop planes, jet,

0:06:06.200 --> 0:06:09.440
<v Speaker 1>you name it. They've got a big Southwest Airlines plane

0:06:09.480 --> 0:06:11.599
<v Speaker 1>you can get in. So it runs the gamut that

0:06:11.680 --> 0:06:14.880
<v Speaker 1>the planes are all over the place, but on so

0:06:15.880 --> 0:06:20.960
<v Speaker 1>many of the planes the military aircraft. As I'm walking

0:06:21.040 --> 0:06:27.359
<v Speaker 1>by them, I marveled at you pilots, and I'm gonna

0:06:27.360 --> 0:06:30.359
<v Speaker 1>say fighter pilot, but I don't just mean fighter pilots.

0:06:30.520 --> 0:06:35.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm talking anybody who's flown a plane in the Air Force, Navy,

0:06:35.600 --> 0:06:41.640
<v Speaker 1>or Marine Corps that involved ground support operations, or maybe

0:06:41.680 --> 0:06:44.680
<v Speaker 1>you were a fighter pilot, or if you flew on

0:06:44.800 --> 0:06:48.840
<v Speaker 1>a helicopter, a plane of any kind in the military.

0:06:50.520 --> 0:06:52.560
<v Speaker 1>As much as I love to give the Air Force crap,

0:06:53.120 --> 0:06:57.520
<v Speaker 1>you blow me away with your bravery because these planes

0:06:59.120 --> 0:07:02.479
<v Speaker 1>there's so much smaller than you think they're gonna be

0:07:02.720 --> 0:07:07.480
<v Speaker 1>when you stand beside them. And not only smaller they

0:07:07.520 --> 0:07:10.320
<v Speaker 1>have they have the real actual planes are in there.

0:07:10.720 --> 0:07:16.920
<v Speaker 1>You look in and there's just nothing to them. And yes, Chris,

0:07:17.200 --> 0:07:21.560
<v Speaker 1>they're made of nothing that you think. At least I

0:07:21.600 --> 0:07:24.280
<v Speaker 1>would think. And I used to think before I before

0:07:24.320 --> 0:07:26.880
<v Speaker 1>I knew better, before I joined the Marines and read

0:07:26.960 --> 0:07:29.880
<v Speaker 1>more and knew better. When you look at, uh, what's

0:07:29.920 --> 0:07:32.040
<v Speaker 1>a movie? A top gun is a great example. Everyone's

0:07:32.040 --> 0:07:33.880
<v Speaker 1>seeing top gun, at least one of them, probably both

0:07:33.880 --> 0:07:37.800
<v Speaker 1>of them. When you look at those fighter jets, maybe

0:07:37.840 --> 0:07:40.560
<v Speaker 1>you have in your mind I did, so if you do,

0:07:41.160 --> 0:07:44.120
<v Speaker 1>you're not dumb. But if you don't, good for you.

0:07:44.440 --> 0:07:47.680
<v Speaker 1>Maybe you think in your mind that those planes are

0:07:47.720 --> 0:07:51.760
<v Speaker 1>in some way armored. I would look at those planes

0:07:51.760 --> 0:07:54.480
<v Speaker 1>and I would say to myself, Wow, that's really cool.

0:07:54.480 --> 0:07:56.800
<v Speaker 1>Look at the guns, look at the missiles, and you

0:07:56.840 --> 0:07:59.200
<v Speaker 1>see that pop that that that pilot in there in

0:07:59.240 --> 0:08:05.200
<v Speaker 1>the cockpit, he's got to be protected, right, yeah, no,

0:08:05.200 --> 0:08:08.480
<v Speaker 1>no he's not. And as I'm looking at these planes

0:08:08.480 --> 0:08:13.240
<v Speaker 1>in the flight museum, it occurs to me, not only

0:08:13.280 --> 0:08:18.440
<v Speaker 1>does this plane look brittle and look dangerous sitting on

0:08:18.480 --> 0:08:21.720
<v Speaker 1>the ground, men and women. I want to give credit

0:08:21.720 --> 0:08:23.920
<v Speaker 1>where its to. There are a lot of wonderful female pilots,

0:08:24.320 --> 0:08:27.160
<v Speaker 1>men and women. That's actually weird. They can't drive, but

0:08:27.200 --> 0:08:30.960
<v Speaker 1>they fly really well. Men and women. They will routinely

0:08:31.040 --> 0:08:36.560
<v Speaker 1>get in these aircraft and you might die every single time.

0:08:37.920 --> 0:08:41.120
<v Speaker 1>It might be a training accident, but you are in

0:08:41.320 --> 0:08:46.240
<v Speaker 1>paper thin nothing. You are flying at high speeds. You're

0:08:46.400 --> 0:08:53.079
<v Speaker 1>surrounded by extremely flammable things, from the AMMO, to the missiles,

0:08:53.120 --> 0:08:57.080
<v Speaker 1>to the bombs to the freaking fuel itself. You know

0:08:57.160 --> 0:09:02.120
<v Speaker 1>how flammable aviation fuel is. Here's a little tidbit for

0:09:02.160 --> 0:09:08.679
<v Speaker 1>you. You may not know. Many, many, many, many, many World

0:09:08.720 --> 0:09:13.839
<v Speaker 1>War Two naval ships, not necessarily just from America, although

0:09:13.840 --> 0:09:16.200
<v Speaker 1>we were part of this too, but other countries as well.

0:09:16.880 --> 0:09:22.319
<v Speaker 1>Many naval ships went down, not necessarily because of the

0:09:22.440 --> 0:09:27.000
<v Speaker 1>damage they sustained from the original explosion from the bomb, torpedo,

0:09:27.080 --> 0:09:30.760
<v Speaker 1>whatever it is. They went down because eventually the flames

0:09:30.840 --> 0:09:35.480
<v Speaker 1>found their way to the aviation fuel that is. There's

0:09:35.600 --> 0:09:37.480
<v Speaker 1>a one story of a Japanese ship. I forget the

0:09:37.559 --> 0:09:40.160
<v Speaker 1>name of the ship. It got hit by an American

0:09:40.240 --> 0:09:44.080
<v Speaker 1>submarine's torpedo. One torpedo. The sub had shot a bunch

0:09:44.120 --> 0:09:45.840
<v Speaker 1>of them at it. I won't go into the details.

0:09:45.840 --> 0:09:48.000
<v Speaker 1>But one torpedo hits the hits the carrier. It's an

0:09:48.000 --> 0:09:52.160
<v Speaker 1>aircraft carrier. Okay, one torpedoes. Not the end of the world.

0:09:52.320 --> 0:09:55.679
<v Speaker 1>They're taking on some water, but they kind of got

0:09:55.679 --> 0:09:58.960
<v Speaker 1>the water thing under the under control. It's not great,

0:09:59.720 --> 0:10:02.800
<v Speaker 1>but eventually that aircraft carrier went to the bottom of

0:10:02.800 --> 0:10:09.520
<v Speaker 1>the ocean. Why the torpedo ruptured the ab gas the

0:10:09.559 --> 0:10:13.600
<v Speaker 1>aviation fuel area, and the aviation fuel put out a

0:10:13.720 --> 0:10:17.880
<v Speaker 1>vapor slowly but surely in the ship that hours and

0:10:18.040 --> 0:10:23.160
<v Speaker 1>hours and hours later, it just blew up. It just

0:10:23.200 --> 0:10:26.800
<v Speaker 1>blew up. And these pilots use psychopilots. You get in

0:10:26.840 --> 0:10:30.560
<v Speaker 1>these planes, then you fly this brittle machine on top

0:10:30.600 --> 0:10:33.760
<v Speaker 1>of all this explosive stuff. In this story here he

0:10:33.880 --> 0:10:39.000
<v Speaker 1>keeps making passes. Imagine burning to death, and imagine being

0:10:39.040 --> 0:10:41.040
<v Speaker 1>on a plane that might go and go up in

0:10:41.040 --> 0:10:44.000
<v Speaker 1>flames at any moment or just flat out crash. Where

0:10:44.000 --> 0:10:47.360
<v Speaker 1>you get to spend thirty seconds, plummeting to the earth, praying,

0:10:47.800 --> 0:10:51.920
<v Speaker 1>saying goodbye to your wife, and you make several passes

0:10:52.000 --> 0:10:55.920
<v Speaker 1>to save the guy's life on the ground. That's pretty awesome, right,

0:10:56.440 --> 0:11:01.280
<v Speaker 1>all right. I have a little bit who's been whispering

0:11:01.320 --> 0:11:03.920
<v Speaker 1>some things in my year about something coming in DC

0:11:04.160 --> 0:11:07.640
<v Speaker 1>that you need, you need to know and you're gonna

0:11:07.640 --> 0:11:09.679
<v Speaker 1>have to do something. I mean, we'll talk about that

0:11:09.800 --> 0:11:12.439
<v Speaker 1>something in a moment. Before we get to that something,

0:11:13.520 --> 0:11:17.520
<v Speaker 1>we need to talk about health. It's one of the

0:11:17.520 --> 0:11:20.719
<v Speaker 1>things I'm actually really really grateful RFK Junior has been

0:11:20.760 --> 0:11:23.960
<v Speaker 1>louder about, especially now that he's part of the Trump

0:11:24.040 --> 0:11:26.760
<v Speaker 1>campaign and Trump is letting him speak on this, and

0:11:26.360 --> 0:11:29.800
<v Speaker 1>I like that health, basic health, and he's criticizing our

0:11:29.840 --> 0:11:35.319
<v Speaker 1>healthcare systems in the country. Natural herbal supplements are something

0:11:35.360 --> 0:11:39.240
<v Speaker 1>you need to incorporate in your life as a first

0:11:39.440 --> 0:11:43.599
<v Speaker 1>line of defense, not a last line of defense. Do

0:11:44.160 --> 0:11:47.320
<v Speaker 1>you have the vitamins and minerals you need every day?

0:11:48.000 --> 0:11:52.479
<v Speaker 1>How are your testostere levels, How's your energy? How's your mood?

0:11:53.120 --> 0:11:57.200
<v Speaker 1>You know, Chok has something for you. Whoever you are, man, woman, old, young,

0:11:57.400 --> 0:12:03.600
<v Speaker 1>doesn't matter. Chalk has the most and that's the best

0:12:03.600 --> 0:12:06.840
<v Speaker 1>way I can put this. They're so hardcore anti communist

0:12:07.000 --> 0:12:09.439
<v Speaker 1>it makes me a little uncomfortable. And they have the

0:12:09.559 --> 0:12:12.600
<v Speaker 1>hugest selection of natural herbal supplements I've ever seen in

0:12:12.640 --> 0:12:15.800
<v Speaker 1>my life, and they are obsessive about making sure they're

0:12:15.840 --> 0:12:22.679
<v Speaker 1>the best. Get something c hoq dot com promo code

0:12:34.760 --> 0:12:36.920
<v Speaker 1>a great first hour. I ended up getting a little

0:12:36.920 --> 0:12:38.520
<v Speaker 1>bit upset in the first hour, but it didn't last

0:12:38.600 --> 0:12:41.640

0:13:02.960 --> 0:13:06.160
<v Speaker 1>you're wondering, Yes, it's on the soundboard and I would

0:13:06.200 --> 0:13:09.240
<v Speaker 1>get ready to hear a whole lot of that now.

0:13:10.880 --> 0:13:14.040
<v Speaker 1>So you know how I tell you things I think,

0:13:14.120 --> 0:13:16.959
<v Speaker 1>and I tell you things I know. I tell you

0:13:17.000 --> 0:13:18.840
<v Speaker 1>when I have a theory on something with nothing to

0:13:18.840 --> 0:13:21.640
<v Speaker 1>back it up, I'm very honest about that. And then

0:13:21.679 --> 0:13:24.920
<v Speaker 1>I tell you when I know something, well, I know something,

0:13:25.760 --> 0:13:30.800
<v Speaker 1>and we have trouble coming. It's bad trouble, and it's

0:13:30.800 --> 0:13:32.839
<v Speaker 1>something we're going to have to address and get out

0:13:32.840 --> 0:13:37.560
<v Speaker 1>in front of. Now, Mitch McConnell, as you know, is

0:13:37.640 --> 0:13:43.000
<v Speaker 1>done leading the GOP Senate, probably just going to retire.

0:13:43.040 --> 0:13:46.480
<v Speaker 1>But even if not, he's done. He lost that he

0:13:46.520 --> 0:13:51.600
<v Speaker 1>doesn't have enough support anymore. And now there are already

0:13:51.720 --> 0:13:57.160
<v Speaker 1>campaigning behind the scenes to choose the next leader of

0:13:57.200 --> 0:14:00.760
<v Speaker 1>the GOP Senate. Whether that happens to be the majority

0:14:00.840 --> 0:14:04.080
<v Speaker 1>leader or minority leader, we won't know until after the

0:14:04.080 --> 0:14:07.520
<v Speaker 1>November election, but we are choosing the leader of the

0:14:07.559 --> 0:14:13.240
<v Speaker 1>next Senate. And I have had now multiple sources who

0:14:13.280 --> 0:14:15.360
<v Speaker 1>would know. You're gonna have to trust me on that.

0:14:16.320 --> 0:14:23.040
<v Speaker 1>Tell me that John Cornyan of Texas is the odds

0:14:23.120 --> 0:14:26.960
<v Speaker 1>on favorite as we sit here to be the next

0:14:27.560 --> 0:14:34.200
<v Speaker 1>GOP leader of the Senate. This is disastrous on a

0:14:34.280 --> 0:14:39.640
<v Speaker 1>level I can't even properly explain to you. John Cornyn,

0:14:41.200 --> 0:14:48.040
<v Speaker 1>like Mitch McConnell before him, is a loyal system servant.

0:14:49.080 --> 0:14:54.640
<v Speaker 1>He will do the systems bidding at every turn. If

0:14:54.880 --> 0:14:58.200
<v Speaker 1>by a miracle from God, we actually do get a

0:14:58.280 --> 0:15:01.480
<v Speaker 1>decent piece of legislation, which you really never get. But

0:15:01.520 --> 0:15:03.920
<v Speaker 1>if we ever were to actually get one of those,

0:15:04.640 --> 0:15:09.600
<v Speaker 1>John Cornyn would use his position of power to neotera

0:15:09.960 --> 0:15:13.520
<v Speaker 1>said legislation, whatever it was. If there was ever anything

0:15:13.600 --> 0:15:17.040
<v Speaker 1>with teeth that went after the deep state in any way,

0:15:17.600 --> 0:15:21.640
<v Speaker 1>what's a good example of defunding the FBI. That's something

0:15:21.640 --> 0:15:24.600
<v Speaker 1>that has to happen. We cannot have an FBI and

0:15:24.640 --> 0:15:27.760
<v Speaker 1>continue as a free country. We cannot if you were

0:15:27.800 --> 0:15:31.200
<v Speaker 1>to ever actually get any cut to the FBI, I

0:15:31.200 --> 0:15:34.920
<v Speaker 1>don't even mean defunding it a ten twenty percent cut.

0:15:35.160 --> 0:15:38.120
<v Speaker 1>If that ever landed on John Cornyn's desk, he would

0:15:38.160 --> 0:15:44.440
<v Speaker 1>stop that legislation immediately. That's how hopeless, evil, corrupt, and

0:15:44.520 --> 0:15:50.320
<v Speaker 1>compromised John Cornyn is. And if the Communists ever wanted

0:15:50.320 --> 0:15:54.560
<v Speaker 1>a piece of legislation through, John Cornyan would massage it

0:15:55.200 --> 0:15:58.200
<v Speaker 1>to the point where it would get past the exact

0:15:58.320 --> 0:16:03.080
<v Speaker 1>same way he worked to pass gun control legislation in

0:16:03.120 --> 0:16:06.440
<v Speaker 1>the wake of the Uvalde shooting. After that horrible Uvaldi

0:16:06.560 --> 0:16:09.440
<v Speaker 1>school shooting, when the Communist demons were doing what they

0:16:09.480 --> 0:16:12.000
<v Speaker 1>always do, which is jump on the bodies of dead

0:16:12.080 --> 0:16:16.080
<v Speaker 1>kids to try to grab guns. Mitch McConnell also tried

0:16:16.120 --> 0:16:19.280
<v Speaker 1>to use that as an opportunity to grab guns. And

0:16:19.320 --> 0:16:23.520
<v Speaker 1>who did he turn to to spearhead the effort, John Cornan.

0:16:24.000 --> 0:16:28.120
<v Speaker 1>John Cornyan is the one responsible. Whenever you hear Joe

0:16:28.120 --> 0:16:31.640
<v Speaker 1>Biden Bragg about the gun control legislation he passed, and

0:16:31.720 --> 0:16:34.280
<v Speaker 1>he did pass it, and he does brag about it

0:16:34.320 --> 0:16:36.480
<v Speaker 1>all the time. You know who you can thank for that,

0:16:37.080 --> 0:16:42.360
<v Speaker 1>John Cornan. If John Cornyan is the next GOP leader

0:16:42.440 --> 0:16:44.840
<v Speaker 1>of the House, you might as well take that Maga

0:16:44.840 --> 0:16:48.080
<v Speaker 1>hat and walk down to the local incinerator and toss

0:16:48.120 --> 0:16:51.160
<v Speaker 1>it rightly right in because Trump will be able to

0:16:51.280 --> 0:16:57.120
<v Speaker 1>do nothing of consequence, zero zip, zilch nothing. It'll be

0:16:57.200 --> 0:17:00.920
<v Speaker 1>executive order this and executive Order that, all of which

0:17:00.960 --> 0:17:05.080
<v Speaker 1>will be overturned immediately by the next Democrat president. If

0:17:05.119 --> 0:17:10.040
<v Speaker 1>you want any lasting good or lasting change done under

0:17:10.080 --> 0:17:13.400
<v Speaker 1>a potential Donald Trump presidency, if we happen to get

0:17:13.440 --> 0:17:16.879
<v Speaker 1>one of those, if John Cornyn is the GOP leader

0:17:16.880 --> 0:17:21.320
<v Speaker 1>in the Senate, you can kiss those dreams bye bye gone.

0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:28.480
<v Speaker 1>They are gone. You could not possibly find a more disgusting,

0:17:29.000 --> 0:17:33.359
<v Speaker 1>disgraceful swamp rat than John Cornyn. And to be the

0:17:33.480 --> 0:17:37.119
<v Speaker 1>leader in the Senate comes with such an inhuman amount

0:17:37.160 --> 0:17:39.680
<v Speaker 1>of power. I don't even have enough time to break

0:17:39.720 --> 0:17:42.480
<v Speaker 1>it all down for you on the show tonight. What

0:17:42.560 --> 0:17:46.720
<v Speaker 1>that means. As far as committee appointments, we're talking judges,

0:17:47.000 --> 0:17:49.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, the judges that are busy destroying the country

0:17:49.880 --> 0:17:53.439
<v Speaker 1>because they always get approved by Republican losers. John Cornyan

0:17:53.480 --> 0:17:57.119
<v Speaker 1>would have a never ending revolving door of filthy communists

0:17:57.160 --> 0:18:02.440
<v Speaker 1>coming through there. The damage would be unending. It would

0:18:02.440 --> 0:18:07.440
<v Speaker 1>be worse than Mitch McConnell has been worse. And this

0:18:07.680 --> 0:18:11.960
<v Speaker 1>is not some far fetched thing. I got confirmation this weekend.

0:18:12.240 --> 0:18:17.000
<v Speaker 1>If the vote were held today, it would be John Cornyn.

0:18:19.359 --> 0:18:23.680
<v Speaker 1>This is the biggest deal in the world. We're gonna

0:18:23.680 --> 0:18:28.640
<v Speaker 1>discuss why it's John Cornyn, what we can do about it,

0:18:30.000 --> 0:18:32.200
<v Speaker 1>and break a little bit of that down in a moment,

0:18:32.200 --> 0:18:35.639
<v Speaker 1>all right, because we are not helpless here. Before we

0:18:35.720 --> 0:18:40.040
<v Speaker 1>get to that, let's save a life. Been upset about

0:18:40.119 --> 0:18:42.320
<v Speaker 1>enough tonight, Let's go ahead and save a life. Remember

0:18:42.720 --> 0:18:46.359
<v Speaker 1>the battle for the unborn. It's not just a battle

0:18:46.359 --> 0:18:49.639
<v Speaker 1>of elections or legislation that stuff's fine, ban this or

0:18:49.640 --> 0:18:53.000
<v Speaker 1>elect that that's fine. It's a battle to change the

0:18:53.000 --> 0:18:57.320
<v Speaker 1>hearts of Americans, to get Americans to stop seeing that

0:18:57.520 --> 0:19:01.479
<v Speaker 1>baby as a burden or a clump of cells, or

0:19:01.680 --> 0:19:05.040
<v Speaker 1>something that's going to ruin my life. Start looking at

0:19:05.080 --> 0:19:11.280
<v Speaker 1>it as what it is, a God breathed life, a

0:19:11.440 --> 0:19:13.639
<v Speaker 1>life inside of a mother. How do we get that

0:19:13.720 --> 0:19:17.600
<v Speaker 1>truth to people? Ultrasound It's probably the greatest weapon in

0:19:17.640 --> 0:19:21.639
<v Speaker 1>the pro life movement, ultrasound Preborn. They walk into the

0:19:21.680 --> 0:19:24.679
<v Speaker 1>highest abortion areas in the country and they offer these

0:19:24.720 --> 0:19:27.840
<v Speaker 1>women free ultrasounds. Hey, how about a free ultrasound before

0:19:27.880 --> 0:19:30.520
<v Speaker 1>you hurt that baby. If a woman lays down and

0:19:30.560 --> 0:19:33.159
<v Speaker 1>here's that ultrasound, she chooses life almost every time. Did

0:19:33.200 --> 0:19:36.080
<v Speaker 1>you know that when you give twenty eight dollars to preborn,

0:19:36.119 --> 0:19:41.880
<v Speaker 1>you're saving a life. Preborn dot com slash Jesse sponsored

<v Speaker 1>Show on a Monday, trying to keep Jewish producer Chris

0:19:51.200 --> 0:19:54.200
<v Speaker 1>from turning into a degenerate gambler. Here on the show,

0:19:54.280 --> 0:19:57.800
<v Speaker 1>in between stories, I'm talking about John Cornyan on the show.

0:19:58.000 --> 0:20:00.919
<v Speaker 1>The second we go to break Chris he's never you

0:20:01.000 --> 0:20:03.760
<v Speaker 1>know what he's like with money. He's turned into this gambler.

0:20:04.280 --> 0:20:07.280
<v Speaker 1>What's to bet on things? Chris Tony, don't do it,

0:20:07.560 --> 0:20:10.720
<v Speaker 1>don't don't travel down that road. No, not one time.

0:20:10.800 --> 0:20:13.880
<v Speaker 1>It's never one time, Chris, It's never one time. Back

0:20:13.920 --> 0:20:16.560
<v Speaker 1>to Cornyan. All right, Cornyan, in case you're just now

0:20:16.640 --> 0:20:22.239
<v Speaker 1>joining us, John Cornyn is the odds on favorite as

0:20:22.640 --> 0:20:25.399
<v Speaker 1>we speak right now to be the next GOP leader

0:20:25.440 --> 0:20:27.520
<v Speaker 1>in the Senate. I'm gonna get to what we need

0:20:27.560 --> 0:20:30.400
<v Speaker 1>to do here in a minute, but let's discuss the why,

0:20:30.440 --> 0:20:34.200
<v Speaker 1>because whenever I talk about the guys like this, why

0:20:34.280 --> 0:20:36.120
<v Speaker 1>why is this the way? Why can't we have this?

0:20:36.320 --> 0:20:38.919
<v Speaker 1>And probably I bet you you're screaming at the radio

0:20:39.560 --> 0:20:43.800
<v Speaker 1>and saying somebody who you like? Maybe you're sitting there,

0:20:43.800 --> 0:20:46.280
<v Speaker 1>no Mike Lee or no Ted Cruz. No, we need

0:20:46.280 --> 0:20:49.120
<v Speaker 1>brand Paul, we need Josh Howley, we need maybe you're

0:20:49.160 --> 0:20:53.200
<v Speaker 1>doing that Ron Johnson picked pick your senator. Remember how

0:20:53.240 --> 0:20:55.440
<v Speaker 1>you get into leadership, And in fact, I'm gonna tell

0:20:55.480 --> 0:20:57.800
<v Speaker 1>you a story about this in just a moment that

0:20:57.880 --> 0:21:02.320
<v Speaker 1>really it really drives home how it works in DC.

0:21:03.240 --> 0:21:08.000
<v Speaker 1>You get into leadership by raising a ton of money,

0:21:08.680 --> 0:21:12.960
<v Speaker 1>You then spread that money around to other Republicans who

0:21:13.000 --> 0:21:18.159
<v Speaker 1>are running senators, House members, potential Republicans who are running.

0:21:18.520 --> 0:21:22.800
<v Speaker 1>You're raising campaign money. You spend some on yourself, yes,

0:21:22.840 --> 0:21:25.439
<v Speaker 1>but that's not where the real power is bought. You

0:21:25.520 --> 0:21:30.000
<v Speaker 1>buy that power by spreading it around to others. Once

0:21:30.040 --> 0:21:33.080
<v Speaker 1>you do enough of that, enough people owe you favors.

0:21:33.400 --> 0:21:36.960
<v Speaker 1>When it comes time to elect a new leader, they're

0:21:37.000 --> 0:21:40.520
<v Speaker 1>going to remember the favor. I know that's awful. It

0:21:40.640 --> 0:21:44.720
<v Speaker 1>is awful, but that is how it works. Mitch McConnell

0:21:44.760 --> 0:21:49.000
<v Speaker 1>is there not because of his wonderful ability to give speeches.

0:21:49.520 --> 0:21:54.600
<v Speaker 1>Mitch McConnell's the GOP leader because he raises gobs of

0:21:54.680 --> 0:21:57.560
<v Speaker 1>money and hands it out to other Republicans to help

0:21:57.600 --> 0:22:00.880
<v Speaker 1>them get elected. That's how you get to leadership. That's

0:22:00.880 --> 0:22:04.920
<v Speaker 1>how you stay in leadership. Nancy Pelosi grandma vodka. What's

0:22:04.960 --> 0:22:08.879
<v Speaker 1>her specialty? This is not an attempt to ban TikTok,

0:22:09.119 --> 0:22:13.160
<v Speaker 1>It's an attempt to make TikTok better. T tech toe

0:22:13.359 --> 0:22:19.560
<v Speaker 1>a winner, a winner. Her specialty is drinking vodka. No,

0:22:19.600 --> 0:22:24.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm kidding. No, her specialty is raising money. That's how

0:22:24.119 --> 0:22:27.000
<v Speaker 1>that woman has been in such positions of power. For

0:22:27.080 --> 0:22:32.000
<v Speaker 1>so long. She is a fund raising machine. She raises

0:22:32.080 --> 0:22:36.120
<v Speaker 1>gobs of money and hands it out to every Democrat

0:22:36.200 --> 0:22:39.840
<v Speaker 1>running for office, buying favors. How could it be guys

0:22:39.880 --> 0:22:43.760
<v Speaker 1>like John Cornyn and Mitch McConnell in leadership. They raise

0:22:43.840 --> 0:22:47.280
<v Speaker 1>a ton of money and they hand it out. Now,

0:22:47.600 --> 0:22:50.000
<v Speaker 1>let's discuss the why. It's not the ones you want.

0:22:50.080 --> 0:22:52.600
<v Speaker 1>Why Why isn't it Cruz or Holly or whoever you

0:22:52.680 --> 0:22:54.480
<v Speaker 1>happen to like, whoever it may be. Why isn't it

0:22:54.520 --> 0:23:00.199
<v Speaker 1>that those guys don't raise that much money? And part

0:23:00.240 --> 0:23:03.719
<v Speaker 1>of the reason those guys don't raise that much money

0:23:04.560 --> 0:23:07.840
<v Speaker 1>is they are more hesitant to do things that support

0:23:07.880 --> 0:23:11.879
<v Speaker 1>the system. John Cornyn is part of the system, a

0:23:11.920 --> 0:23:15.359
<v Speaker 1>defender of the system. He's got his system membership card.

0:23:15.680 --> 0:23:19.520
<v Speaker 1>And when you have your system membership card, it's easier

0:23:19.600 --> 0:23:23.919
<v Speaker 1>to raise tons and tons of money. All this is

0:23:23.960 --> 0:23:26.920
<v Speaker 1>a vicious little circle. And what I'm trying to say

0:23:27.040 --> 0:23:30.760
<v Speaker 1>is it's difficult to break that circle. It's hard to

0:23:30.800 --> 0:23:34.719
<v Speaker 1>get someone in a position of power in GOP leadership

0:23:34.960 --> 0:23:38.000
<v Speaker 1>who will fight against the system because to get there,

0:23:38.040 --> 0:23:40.160
<v Speaker 1>they kind of have to be a member of the system.

0:23:40.400 --> 0:23:43.800
<v Speaker 1>And the people you love that guy. Whoever you're yelling at.

0:23:43.840 --> 0:23:46.119
<v Speaker 1>Maybe it's Marsha Blackburn, whoever, I want herd around. I

0:23:46.119 --> 0:23:49.200
<v Speaker 1>want the person you want in there. They don't run

0:23:49.280 --> 0:23:52.720
<v Speaker 1>for it. They don't want to raise the money or that,

0:23:52.880 --> 0:23:55.280
<v Speaker 1>or they can't raise the money and they don't run

0:23:55.359 --> 0:23:57.840
<v Speaker 1>for it. And so let's get to what you have

0:23:57.920 --> 0:23:59.680
<v Speaker 1>to do before I get to my own story. A

0:23:59.720 --> 0:24:01.520
<v Speaker 1>store I told a long time ago, but I'm gonna

0:24:01.520 --> 0:24:08.119
<v Speaker 1>tell it again now. Right now is the time to

0:24:08.200 --> 0:24:13.280
<v Speaker 1>make your voice heard. This is the social media era,

0:24:13.840 --> 0:24:16.560
<v Speaker 1>and there are so many negatives that come with it

0:24:16.600 --> 0:24:20.359
<v Speaker 1>being the social media era. I get that. That's why

0:24:20.800 --> 0:24:23.640
<v Speaker 1>you should go subscribe to my YouTube channel, YouTube dot

0:24:23.680 --> 0:24:26.919
<v Speaker 1>com slash Jesse KELLYDC. Now I'm kidding. Now, actually go

0:24:26.960 --> 0:24:28.760
<v Speaker 1>subscribe to it. But that's not what I'm doing. I know.

0:24:28.800 --> 0:24:31.000
<v Speaker 1>There's all kinds of negative that comes with it being

0:24:31.040 --> 0:24:34.520
<v Speaker 1>the social media era. I get that. But one of

0:24:34.560 --> 0:24:40.639
<v Speaker 1>the benefits is you really can speak to powerful people.

0:24:41.560 --> 0:24:45.439
<v Speaker 1>I watched I think it was over the weekend. Jd Vance.

0:24:45.800 --> 0:24:49.720
<v Speaker 1>Jdvance is a United States Senator from Ohio. He is

0:24:50.520 --> 0:24:54.679
<v Speaker 1>possibly probably the next Vice President of the United States

0:24:54.720 --> 0:25:00.520
<v Speaker 1>of America. He said something online a woman got I

0:25:00.520 --> 0:25:01.920
<v Speaker 1>don't know who she is, and I'm not going to

0:25:01.960 --> 0:25:05.200
<v Speaker 1>blast her name, but she got online and she blasted

0:25:05.280 --> 0:25:09.399
<v Speaker 1>jd Vance for something he had said. Jd Vance not

0:25:09.440 --> 0:25:13.199
<v Speaker 1>a staffer. Jd Vance himself got on there and responded,

0:25:14.560 --> 0:25:18.320
<v Speaker 1>you can talk to your senator, whoever he may be.

0:25:18.880 --> 0:25:21.080
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't have to be a phone call to his office,

0:25:21.119 --> 0:25:24.040
<v Speaker 1>although that's fine. It doesn't have to be an email,

0:25:24.240 --> 0:25:27.879
<v Speaker 1>although that's fine. But your senator, if you have a

0:25:27.960 --> 0:25:32.520
<v Speaker 1>Republican one, your senator needs to begin feeling heat from

0:25:32.560 --> 0:25:36.960
<v Speaker 1>you right now, and that heat had better be No

0:25:37.200 --> 0:25:41.640
<v Speaker 1>John Cornyn, no John Thune. Just remember no to the Johns.

0:25:42.160 --> 0:25:45.840
<v Speaker 1>No John Cornyn, no John Thune. We're stuck with these

0:25:46.000 --> 0:25:49.560
<v Speaker 1>rhino losers from these red states because Red state go

0:25:49.880 --> 0:25:52.800
<v Speaker 1>pears are the dumbest people in the United States of

0:25:52.880 --> 0:25:55.840
<v Speaker 1>America because they can't ever show up for a primary,

0:25:55.960 --> 0:25:58.040
<v Speaker 1>and when they do show up for a primary, they

0:25:58.080 --> 0:26:01.320
<v Speaker 1>show up and vote for the scumbag who already in office.

0:26:01.480 --> 0:26:04.880
<v Speaker 1>So Republicans in Texas, I'm not talking about you. Republicans

0:26:04.880 --> 0:26:07.280
<v Speaker 1>in Texas, if they even bother to show up for

0:26:07.320 --> 0:26:09.720
<v Speaker 1>the primary, which they don't, they'll show up and I'll

0:26:09.800 --> 0:26:12.760
<v Speaker 1>vote for Cornyan. I saw tv AD saying he's going

0:26:12.840 --> 0:26:15.600
<v Speaker 1>to deport the illegals, and they do the exact same

0:26:15.640 --> 0:26:17.760
<v Speaker 1>thing up in the Dakotas. They do the same thing

0:26:17.800 --> 0:26:20.280
<v Speaker 1>in the Carolinas, they do the same thing in Florida.

0:26:20.400 --> 0:26:23.639
<v Speaker 1>They continue these red states to vote for losers, and

0:26:23.680 --> 0:26:27.359
<v Speaker 1>it drives me nuts. Anyway, your senator, whoever it may be,

0:26:28.480 --> 0:26:31.399
<v Speaker 1>if you have a Republican one, you need to get

0:26:31.440 --> 0:26:35.159
<v Speaker 1>in front of this and let him know he better

0:26:35.200 --> 0:26:39.080
<v Speaker 1>not vote for John Cornyan or John Thune. And I

0:26:39.119 --> 0:26:44.879
<v Speaker 1>want to once again reiterate this. If John Cornyn is

0:26:44.920 --> 0:26:48.399
<v Speaker 1>the next GOP leader, whether he's a minority leader or

0:26:48.560 --> 0:26:55.320
<v Speaker 1>majority leader, you have exactly zero percent chance to get

0:26:55.560 --> 0:27:00.800
<v Speaker 1>any legislation through that has any teeth at all against

0:27:00.880 --> 0:27:04.080
<v Speaker 1>the deep state. Because he is a card carrying member

0:27:04.520 --> 0:27:07.520
<v Speaker 1>of the deep state of the system. It will be

0:27:07.640 --> 0:27:12.640
<v Speaker 1>impossible for anyone, including Donald Trump, to do something lasting

0:27:12.880 --> 0:27:17.119
<v Speaker 1>in tangible against the deep State if John Cornyn is

0:27:17.200 --> 0:27:19.800
<v Speaker 1>able to use that position of power against them, and

0:27:19.920 --> 0:27:25.280
<v Speaker 1>he will. He will. In fact, you could argue, you

0:27:25.320 --> 0:27:30.600
<v Speaker 1>could argue this is the ultimate move from a system

0:27:31.320 --> 0:27:34.760
<v Speaker 1>that thinks it's going to lose the presidency. The system

0:27:34.800 --> 0:27:36.960
<v Speaker 1>doesn't want to lose the presidency. They want Dome to win.

0:27:37.040 --> 0:27:39.120
<v Speaker 1>They want Kamala Harris. Go ahead, I want Kamala Heris.

0:27:39.119 --> 0:27:41.399
<v Speaker 1>I want come Aris. That's what they want. But if

0:27:41.720 --> 0:27:44.280
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't look like it's going to happen, and let's

0:27:44.280 --> 0:27:46.680
<v Speaker 1>be honest, after tomorrow night, it might not happen.

0:27:47.800 --> 0:27:51.000
<v Speaker 2>Are because this is I'm just gonna speak, Okay, So this.

0:27:50.960 --> 0:27:55.840
<v Speaker 1>Is if you can't have the presidency, and maybe even

0:27:55.880 --> 0:27:59.680
<v Speaker 1>you'll lose the Senate, that sucks if you're part of

0:27:59.680 --> 0:28:05.000
<v Speaker 1>the CYT. But the next best thing would be making

0:28:05.040 --> 0:28:09.520
<v Speaker 1>sure the GOP leader is somebody who will do your

0:28:09.520 --> 0:28:15.600
<v Speaker 1>bidding and prevent any fatal wounds to the scam you

0:28:15.760 --> 0:28:18.680
<v Speaker 1>have going. That's really how you need to look at

0:28:18.680 --> 0:28:23.440
<v Speaker 1>guys like John Cornyn and John Thune. They are shields

0:28:23.720 --> 0:28:28.360
<v Speaker 1>for the system, the ultimate in controlled opposition, where they'll

0:28:28.440 --> 0:28:30.760
<v Speaker 1>they'll let they'll let you do a little this, maybe

0:28:30.800 --> 0:28:33.439
<v Speaker 1>a little tax cut there, and hey, I voted, I

0:28:33.560 --> 0:28:36.200
<v Speaker 1>voted for some border wall. You'll get that kind of thing.

0:28:36.240 --> 0:28:40.240
<v Speaker 1>But if you actually got something that was tangible with

0:28:40.400 --> 0:28:42.760
<v Speaker 1>teeth to their desk, they would stop it. And the

0:28:42.800 --> 0:28:46.920
<v Speaker 1>system knows that if the system can't have president Kamala Harris.

0:28:47.160 --> 0:28:52.200
<v Speaker 1>The system will happily take GOP leader John Cornyn. Remember that,

0:28:53.120 --> 0:28:55.880
<v Speaker 1>And now I'll tell you a little story about how

0:28:55.920 --> 0:28:58.800
<v Speaker 1>all that money thing works, getting a little example from

0:28:58.840 --> 0:29:02.600
<v Speaker 1>my own life. Hang on, it is the Jesse Kelly

0:29:02.680 --> 0:29:07.880
<v Speaker 1>Show on a Monday. Email the show Jesse at Jesse

0:29:08.120 --> 0:29:11.240
<v Speaker 1>kellyshow dot com, whatever you'd like. So we were just

0:29:11.280 --> 0:29:15.640
<v Speaker 1>discussing Cornyn, John Cornyn, but being the next leader potentially

0:29:15.680 --> 0:29:17.320
<v Speaker 1>in the Senate. We need to put a stop to that.

0:29:17.720 --> 0:29:20.480
<v Speaker 1>And I was talking about raising money and spreading around

0:29:20.520 --> 0:29:22.600
<v Speaker 1>and why that matters. So I'm gonna tell you a story.

0:29:23.240 --> 0:29:25.240
<v Speaker 1>I've told it before, I think once on the show,

0:29:25.280 --> 0:29:27.320
<v Speaker 1>maybe twice, but I know we have a bunch of

0:29:27.320 --> 0:29:29.600
<v Speaker 1>new listeners. So here's a little story for you, a

0:29:29.640 --> 0:29:31.720
<v Speaker 1>little story time with Jesse. This is a true story.

0:29:33.360 --> 0:29:38.400
<v Speaker 1>I ran for Congress once, well twice. I got out

0:29:38.440 --> 0:29:41.720
<v Speaker 1>of the Marine Corps back in four and you know,

0:29:41.800 --> 0:29:45.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm a construction guy, come from a construction family. I

0:29:45.160 --> 0:29:48.480
<v Speaker 1>just went back to working construction and I was going

0:29:48.520 --> 0:29:52.840
<v Speaker 1>to community college midnight, and that's what I was doing.

0:29:52.840 --> 0:29:55.080
<v Speaker 1>I was working, going to school, just trying to figure

0:29:55.080 --> 0:29:59.120
<v Speaker 1>out life like everyone else, and I ended up doing

0:29:59.120 --> 0:30:02.400
<v Speaker 1>a construction that was way out of town. So I

0:30:02.440 --> 0:30:05.520
<v Speaker 1>was driving hours and hours and started to consume a

0:30:05.520 --> 0:30:09.040
<v Speaker 1>lot more political talk radio and started to read a

0:30:09.040 --> 0:30:11.880
<v Speaker 1>lot more political stuff. I'd always read historical stuff, but

0:30:12.560 --> 0:30:14.800
<v Speaker 1>started to figure out that this Barack Obama guy is

0:30:14.880 --> 0:30:18.080
<v Speaker 1>really not good. So I got mad, and having never

0:30:18.120 --> 0:30:20.520
<v Speaker 1>been involved in politics before, I just decided to run

0:30:20.520 --> 0:30:22.239
<v Speaker 1>for Congress. I know it was really dumb thing to do,

0:30:22.440 --> 0:30:27.360
<v Speaker 1>but I decided to run for Congress. Now I'm running

0:30:27.400 --> 0:30:31.600
<v Speaker 1>for Congress, and I'm running very early. Remember House of

0:30:31.680 --> 0:30:35.760
<v Speaker 1>Representative elections are every two years. They had just had

0:30:35.800 --> 0:30:39.520
<v Speaker 1>the election a few months ago and I was already running,

0:30:40.000 --> 0:30:43.440
<v Speaker 1>and I was running against the incumbent Democrat in Arizona.

0:30:43.440 --> 0:30:45.400
<v Speaker 1>Her name was Gabrielle Giffords. You remember she's the one

0:30:45.440 --> 0:30:47.600
<v Speaker 1>who ended up getting shot, which is freaking horrible, but

0:30:47.640 --> 0:30:51.400
<v Speaker 1>she ended up getting shot. So I run against Giffords,

0:30:52.200 --> 0:30:53.920
<v Speaker 1>and I'm the only one in the race for a while,

0:30:54.040 --> 0:30:59.160
<v Speaker 1>and I'm killing myself. I'm driving to every meeting, every

0:30:59.200 --> 0:31:02.280
<v Speaker 1>event wherever there are ten people gathered. I don't care

0:31:02.320 --> 0:31:05.960
<v Speaker 1>if it's some lame community event on a Saturday. I

0:31:06.000 --> 0:31:11.840
<v Speaker 1>am there, and I'm getting to be known. People are

0:31:11.880 --> 0:31:14.320
<v Speaker 1>figuring out that I am far far to the right,

0:31:14.440 --> 0:31:20.040
<v Speaker 1>that's for sure, and it's increasing. The following is increasing,

0:31:20.080 --> 0:31:24.320
<v Speaker 1>the support is increasing, and it's going well. Well, this

0:31:24.640 --> 0:31:30.960
<v Speaker 1>was before the race looked winnable. Then Barack Obama starts

0:31:31.080 --> 0:31:33.760
<v Speaker 1>tearing through the country because he had just been elected President,

0:31:34.080 --> 0:31:38.920
<v Speaker 1>Obamacare spending the works, and the Tea Party movement began

0:31:39.040 --> 0:31:42.080
<v Speaker 1>to rise. This is the beginning of the Tea Party movement,

0:31:42.720 --> 0:31:45.240
<v Speaker 1>and everyone in the country it didn't exactly take some

0:31:45.320 --> 0:31:48.400
<v Speaker 1>political operative to tell that this is going to be

0:31:48.440 --> 0:31:51.560
<v Speaker 1>a red wave when Obama has his first midterm election,

0:31:52.000 --> 0:31:54.280
<v Speaker 1>there's going to be a red wave here. Well, my

0:31:54.440 --> 0:31:57.440
<v Speaker 1>seat when I was running for it, originally wasn't thought

0:31:57.440 --> 0:32:01.200
<v Speaker 1>of as really winnable. It was a solidly blue district. Well,

0:32:01.240 --> 0:32:04.600
<v Speaker 1>the Tea Party thing changed, the idea changed, the mood

0:32:04.640 --> 0:32:08.040
<v Speaker 1>on that to being, hey, we might have a real

0:32:08.080 --> 0:32:13.040
<v Speaker 1>shot at this one. And the establishment GOP they liked

0:32:13.040 --> 0:32:15.360
<v Speaker 1>the sound of that. They did not, however, like the

0:32:15.400 --> 0:32:19.400
<v Speaker 1>sound of me. I was way beyond their control. They

0:32:19.440 --> 0:32:22.440
<v Speaker 1>said I was irreverent and disrespectful, which that's not true.

0:32:22.480 --> 0:32:25.520
<v Speaker 1>I was totally respectful. They did not like my hardcore

0:32:25.560 --> 0:32:29.520
<v Speaker 1>immigration stance, and they said no, So they went shopping

0:32:29.560 --> 0:32:32.960
<v Speaker 1>for someone else. They found a state senator to run

0:32:33.000 --> 0:32:36.240
<v Speaker 1>against me. He runs against me in the primary. They

0:32:36.320 --> 0:32:38.680
<v Speaker 1>throw all kinds of money at him, gobs of money,

0:32:38.680 --> 0:32:40.760
<v Speaker 1>and I couldn't figure it out the first night he

0:32:40.800 --> 0:32:42.800
<v Speaker 1>got in the race, because I was so new to politics,

0:32:42.880 --> 0:32:45.280
<v Speaker 1>I didn't understand he gets in a race. The first

0:32:45.400 --> 0:32:48.040
<v Speaker 1>night he has a party, and I think the number

0:32:48.080 --> 0:32:50.440
<v Speaker 1>six hundred thousand, but it might be five hundred thousand

0:32:50.440 --> 0:32:52.840
<v Speaker 1>dollars he raised in one night. I think I'd been

0:32:52.920 --> 0:32:55.480
<v Speaker 1>running for a year and I hadn't raised close to

0:32:55.520 --> 0:32:58.080
<v Speaker 1>that in a year. I just couldn't. I'm asking people

0:32:58.080 --> 0:33:01.800
<v Speaker 1>for twenty five dollars checks. I can't do it one night,

0:33:01.920 --> 0:33:07.360
<v Speaker 1>So on Flord and end up I beat him in

0:33:07.360 --> 0:33:11.040
<v Speaker 1>the primary, and I beat him solidly in the primary.

0:33:12.120 --> 0:33:15.400
<v Speaker 1>Now Arizona has this funny situation that it's a really

0:33:15.520 --> 0:33:19.640
<v Speaker 1>terrible situation where their primaries are too late. Their primaries

0:33:19.640 --> 0:33:22.560
<v Speaker 1>are in August. Well, early voting pretty much starts in

0:33:22.600 --> 0:33:25.920
<v Speaker 1>September by the time the primary is over. The general elections. Here,

0:33:27.360 --> 0:33:31.080
<v Speaker 1>I win the primary. I defeat this establishment guy, pounded

0:33:31.120 --> 0:33:33.240
<v Speaker 1>him good too, just blasted him out. It was a

0:33:33.240 --> 0:33:35.200
<v Speaker 1>hardcore year. It was much more my kind of year

0:33:35.240 --> 0:33:37.760
<v Speaker 1>than his kind of year. But I have to spend

0:33:37.800 --> 0:33:41.160
<v Speaker 1>every dime. I have to blow him out. I beat

0:33:41.240 --> 0:33:46.600
<v Speaker 1>him after the primary. Now I'm officially the GOP nominee

0:33:47.240 --> 0:33:50.320
<v Speaker 1>for the House of Representatives. And it was then it

0:33:50.360 --> 0:33:53.120
<v Speaker 1>was District eight of Arizona. It was Congressional District eight.

0:33:53.160 --> 0:33:56.160
<v Speaker 1>All the lines have been redrawn. It was Tucson, Tucson

0:33:56.240 --> 0:33:59.040
<v Speaker 1>Sierra Vista, the southeast corner of Arizona is where all

0:33:59.040 --> 0:34:02.840
<v Speaker 1>this took place. I win. I've spent all my money,

0:34:03.080 --> 0:34:05.640
<v Speaker 1>and now I have to take on the Democrat machine.

0:34:06.040 --> 0:34:09.040
<v Speaker 1>I have to take on Gabrielle Gifford's in the Democrat machine,

0:34:09.120 --> 0:34:13.279
<v Speaker 1>and she was famously an excellent fundraiser anyway. Democrats raise

0:34:13.320 --> 0:34:15.800
<v Speaker 1>a ton of money anyway, So it was an uphill battle.

0:34:17.640 --> 0:34:23.880
<v Speaker 1>Primary ends. No money comes in. My hardcore supporters, my

0:34:24.000 --> 0:34:27.800
<v Speaker 1>hardcore donors, they were of course there, but there aren't

0:34:27.920 --> 0:34:29.520
<v Speaker 1>enough of those. And I didn't know a bunch of

0:34:29.640 --> 0:34:32.239
<v Speaker 1>rich guys from a construction family. What do I know.

0:34:32.280 --> 0:34:36.320
<v Speaker 1>I don't know any of these people, and no money's

0:34:36.360 --> 0:34:40.839
<v Speaker 1>coming in. I'm completely lost by this again. I'm young

0:34:41.440 --> 0:34:46.120
<v Speaker 1>figuring out how all this works. I'm completely confused. I'm

0:34:46.239 --> 0:34:51.480
<v Speaker 1>the GOP nominee. I'm officially the nominee. Why is the

0:34:51.640 --> 0:34:58.239
<v Speaker 1>GOP not raising me money? Why are traditional GOP donors

0:34:59.080 --> 0:35:02.240
<v Speaker 1>not raising me money? In your area? Wherever you're listening

0:35:02.320 --> 0:35:05.640
<v Speaker 1>to the sound of my voice, there are donors. Depends

0:35:05.680 --> 0:35:07.919
<v Speaker 1>on the size of your area. Maybe there are ten

0:35:07.960 --> 0:35:10.840
<v Speaker 1>of them, maybe there are one hundred of them. It

0:35:10.880 --> 0:35:13.920
<v Speaker 1>really depends on where you are. But there are known

0:35:14.719 --> 0:35:19.480
<v Speaker 1>GOP mega donors in your area. They're the rich men

0:35:19.480 --> 0:35:22.920
<v Speaker 1>and women who can be counted on to write max

0:35:23.160 --> 0:35:27.279
<v Speaker 1>checks to any campaign when they're called upon. They're the

0:35:27.360 --> 0:35:30.920
<v Speaker 1>guys you bank the money ahead of time. They're the guys.

0:35:31.200 --> 0:35:34.480
<v Speaker 1>A GOP senator in my state, I'm using him as

0:35:34.480 --> 0:35:37.200
<v Speaker 1>an example. This does not take place here, and he's

0:35:37.239 --> 0:35:39.640
<v Speaker 1>not doing this, but in my state. I live in

0:35:39.680 --> 0:35:42.520
<v Speaker 1>the Houston area. Ted Cruz is someone I know, and

0:35:42.520 --> 0:35:45.480
<v Speaker 1>he's a senator from this state. I promise you Ted

0:35:45.560 --> 0:35:49.080
<v Speaker 1>Cruz has on his phone the ability to call or

0:35:49.160 --> 0:35:52.920
<v Speaker 1>group text one hundred people in the Houston area right

0:35:52.960 --> 0:35:56.080
<v Speaker 1>now and get me a MAX donation for my upcoming

0:35:56.160 --> 0:35:58.960
<v Speaker 1>congressional campaign. Don't get excited. I'm not running for congress.

0:35:59.000 --> 0:36:01.560
<v Speaker 1>But if I wasn't, if Ted wanted to, he could

0:36:01.560 --> 0:36:04.799
<v Speaker 1>do that. That's how every area works. There are some

0:36:04.920 --> 0:36:07.640
<v Speaker 1>people they're just banked on it, and I had There

0:36:07.680 --> 0:36:09.880
<v Speaker 1>was the same down in Tucson too, exact same in

0:36:09.920 --> 0:36:13.320
<v Speaker 1>my area. I finished the primary. I'm the nominee. Giffords

0:36:13.440 --> 0:36:17.080
<v Speaker 1>is crucifying me on television every day, telling old people

0:36:17.080 --> 0:36:19.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to take away their Medicare and Social Security.

0:36:19.920 --> 0:36:23.280
<v Speaker 1>I don't have any ads responding, and there's no money

0:36:23.320 --> 0:36:28.960
<v Speaker 1>coming in. It's gone. And that's when that's when I

0:36:29.040 --> 0:36:33.719
<v Speaker 1>found out how leadership works, the GOP leadership works, how

0:36:33.719 --> 0:36:36.960
<v Speaker 1>the favors work, how the money actually works. I've finished

0:36:36.960 --> 0:36:39.719
<v Speaker 1>this story. In just a moment. Before I finish that story,

0:36:39.800 --> 0:36:43.680
<v Speaker 1>let me do this. Speaking of money, you're trying to

0:36:43.719 --> 0:36:47.000
<v Speaker 1>save any right now. Look, if you're flushed with cash,

0:36:47.280 --> 0:36:49.839
<v Speaker 1>this probably doesn't apply to you unless you just feel

0:36:49.880 --> 0:36:52.759
<v Speaker 1>like funding dirty comedies. But if you're trying to save

0:36:52.840 --> 0:36:55.279
<v Speaker 1>some money, you should switch your cell phone service to

0:36:55.320 --> 0:37:00.719
<v Speaker 1>Pure Talk. Pure Talk has a million benefits. One, it's

0:37:00.760 --> 0:37:03.880
<v Speaker 1>not Verizon at and to your T Mobile. Those are

0:37:03.920 --> 0:37:07.479
<v Speaker 1>horrible companies they hate you. So that's one, but two,

0:37:09.000 --> 0:37:12.840
<v Speaker 1>Pure Talk saves you money. You know why those cell phones,

0:37:13.360 --> 0:37:15.920
<v Speaker 1>those cell phone companies are so expensive because they have

0:37:15.960 --> 0:37:19.720
<v Speaker 1>a new store on every single street corner. Puretalk cuts

0:37:19.760 --> 0:37:22.359
<v Speaker 1>that out. You handle it all by phone and mail

0:37:22.600 --> 0:37:24.879
<v Speaker 1>and your bill. My bill got cut in half when

0:37:24.880 --> 0:37:26.600
<v Speaker 1>I switched to T Mobile. Do you want to save

0:37:26.680 --> 0:37:28.759
<v Speaker 1>money right now? Don't we all need to save money

0:37:28.840 --> 0:37:31.680
<v Speaker 1>right now? Pure Talk's how you do that. Keep your

0:37:31.719 --> 0:37:34.120
<v Speaker 1>phone too, keep your number. It's not like it's any

0:37:34.120 --> 0:37:37.400
<v Speaker 1>trouble to you at all. It's a phone call. Dial

0:37:37.680 --> 0:37:43.440
<v Speaker 1>pound two five zero and say Jesse Kelly pound two

0:37:43.640 --> 0:37:47.080
<v Speaker 1>five zero, say Jesse Kelly. That'll save you even more.

0:37:47.120 --> 0:37:50.200
<v Speaker 1>That saves you fifty percent off your first month. All right,

0:37:50.200 --> 0:37:52.040
<v Speaker 1>I'll continue my story next
