Speaker 1 (00:01):
Jesse Kelly Show, Final hour of The Jesse Kelly Show.
On a wonderful, wonderful Tuesday, We're gonna tackle drugs Mexico.
Jasmine Crockett better get your game face on to tackle
her cracker barrel emails. Judges are terrible. All that and
so much more to come on the final hour of

(00:22):
the world Famous Jesse Kelly Showed. Now, let's talk about
drugs for a minute. This is gonna be about Mexico.
Trump authorizing military use, cartels, Mexican president, all kinds of things,
but drugs, drugs are Look, I'm not gonna sit here
and go into a long drug debate this or that

(00:43):
or what you use, what you've used, but I'm not
doing that. But drugs as a form of warfare between countries,
there's a long, long history there. Hi, I recommend if
you don't know anything about it, look up the opium wars.

(01:05):
Look up the opium wars. Britain trying to get into
China introducing but it's bad, Okay, it's bad. But look,
I'm not even dogging on Britain. It's what countries do.
We tend to think of warfare as bombs and bullets,
as guns. If we go older, we think about it

(01:26):
like swords and spears and arrows and horses and chariots
and things like that. That's one kind of warfare. But
there are many, many, many different ways to fight a war.
And before you start slamming into each other with shields
and spears or guns and bombs, it certainly helps to

(01:50):
weaken them before you happen to clash. Thus, drugs, drugs
will weaken a nation. We can your resolve, we can
your mind. Drugs will weaken a nation. Period is a
form of warfare. Now, let's talk about fentanyl Mexico, China.

(02:15):
They call them precursors. But I don't want to try
to talk over anybody's head or act like I'm the
world's expert on drugs. Most definitely I'm not. But the
things you need to make fentanyl come from China. Remember,
China is a place completely under the control of the CCP.

(02:36):
The Communist Party controls everything. You don't get to post
on social media whatever you want. You don't get to
do whatever kind of business you want unless the CCP
allows it and or wants it to happen. Period, they'll disappear. Look,
they'll disappear a billionaire if he gets up and says
something they don't like. That's how they handle it. It's

(02:59):
a communists country tree. For a long time, the things
you need to make fentanyl have come from China to Mexico.
Then they've crossed our border. Now let's talk about US America.
America suffers from the same thing. Really, most countries suffer from.

(03:25):
When we have money to burn, we burn it on
things that are bad. And I'm not washing my hands
of that. Either. You got a little extra chadar cheese, Oh,
surely you can go out and buy some fancy new car,
or buy an extra bottle of booze or drugs. Americans
like drugs, not everybody, but as a country, we consume

(03:48):
a lot of drugs, both illegal and legal. Keep in
mind when you think about drugs, things that alter your mind,
things like that you don't just have to think about
the devil's lettuce and and fentanyl and things like that.
All kinds of doctors will write you a perfectly legal
prescription for anti anxiety medication or opiates or whatever else.

(04:10):
And again I'm not judging you. I'm just explaining there
is a large appetite for drugs in America. You want
to see a jaw dropping gap or a graph, go
look at America's consumption of medication, legal medication versus every
other country in the world. We like drugs here. Here's

(04:33):
what it is. Wish it wasn't that way, but it
is what it is. China is our mortal enemy. This
is not just a campaign talking point of Donald Trump
mentioning Kina. China has openly declared this. They believe they
should be the number one country in the world. They
are striving to be the number one country in the world.

(04:56):
So when you're number two and you're striving to be
numbernumber one, it's not just that you want to make gains.
You are trying to hurt number one and drag them back.
China has ensured that they are. They are going to
fill us up with deadly drugs. A hundred thousand Americans

(05:19):
dead in one year from fentanyl overdoses. But it's more
than just the overdoses. The overdoses and the death. They
get all the publicity because it's death. It's horrible, right,
it's somebody's kid, it's somebody's Oh pause for a second, sorry,
I have to be a dad. I have two teenage sons.
I have to be a father. Pause. I know there

(05:40):
are kids listening to the show. I am not a nun.
I am the furthest thing away from a good moral
person who's lived my life in a perfect way. Okay,
I've told you before I did cocaine once. You know
I've I've just talked to you about walking out of
a bar in to Juana. I am not somebody you

(06:01):
need to look up to and admire and model your
life after. So I've lived on the darker side of life.
I know. Do not take anything your friends give you,
Do not do it. I'm about to read a story,
but there's a new worset ventanyl, which I'll get to
in a minute. But a couple couple teens dead Texas teens?

(06:25):
Why I thought it was a XENX. I realize xanx
is a is a drug. Realize that. But it's perfectly
legal drug. And if you're a kid, maybe a teenager,
maybe a girl, boy, whatever, maybe you're stressed about school
or parents or sports or something like that, and your

(06:45):
buddy says, hey, I've got a xen x. Well that's
not exactly like taking LSD. Nothing right, It's just a XANX.
What's the big deal. I'm not going to get hooked.
I don't have a prescription. I'm going to take the
edge off. Yeah, couple of Texas teams are dead. It's
a different world. This stuff is laced with all kinds

(07:07):
of crap. Now, so kids, especially, I'm talking to you,
don't take it. Don't do it. Don't do it might
be the last thing you ever do in your life.
Don't do it. All right, Stop, that's enough, Daddy Jesse.
Let's get back to the task at hand here. China
has been doing drug warfare on us for a long time,

(07:29):
trying to weaken destabilize our country. They have used Mexico
as the vehicle for this because the cartels have run
Mexico for a long time. They run the routes into
the United States from Mexico. So if you're trying to
get illegal things into the country, honestly, they're the mailman.

(07:52):
They're the only one you want to go to. If
you're a terrorist or China or anyone else and you
want to get into America without America knowing it, you
go knock on the door of the drug cartels and
you say and then you ask them to help you.
That's what happens. So now let's fast forward to the latest.

(08:12):
I told you there's a new one, A deadly opioid.
This is from the populous times. Up to forty three
times stronger than fentanyl, and it's narcan resistant. Is killing Americans.
It's known as nightazine, nit a zine. It doesn't matter.
It's really terrible. Maybe you're sitting there thinking, why would

(08:35):
anybody take this? Why would anybody take fentanyl? Why would
anyone seek this out? Remember, unless you're a drug person,
you don't understand the mentality of a drug person. When
you tell a drug person that this drug is so
powerful if you take it one time, it can kill you,

(08:56):
that is not unappealing to them. It's the most appealing
thing in the world. They think, Wow, that stuff must
be awesome. Give me some. I know it doesn't make sense.
That's what drugs will do to your mind. I'm just
explaining the mentality all the headlines out there that you
read that I read, But where fentanila. This guy died,

(09:17):
and this guy died, and this guy died of an overdose,
and this cop happened to brush up against it. And
now he's in the emergency room. The druggie doesn't read
that and go, oh, my gosh, I need to clean
up my life. It's time to time to start working
out and drinking milk. The druggy reads that and he says, oh,
that must be good stuff. I want to run and

(09:39):
get my hands on that. So it's getting worse and
worse and worse and worse and worse now. And I
realized this is complicated. But this is a long complicated issue.
If you're Donald Trump. Trump administration has made this a priority.
They announced it on the campaign trail before he was
even elected. They talked about it time and time and

(10:01):
time again. Addressing fentanyl, addressing these overdoses in a meaningful
way is a priority. How do we do that? Well.
That brings us to the next bit, which we'll get
to in a moment. It is the Jesse Kelly's Show
with me Bronco. Reminding you you can email the show

(10:24):
Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com, your love, your hate,
your death threats. Back to our discussion, we're talking about Mexico,
the Trump administration, Mexico's president. But I wanted to clarify something.
The Jewish producer Chris brought up why why would they
be adding Why would anybody add fentanyl or this new

(10:45):
terrible thing. Why would they add it to xan x?
Why would they add it to medication? Why add it
to I'm assuming they added to cocaine. I'm not really
I don't know the drug world, but a cocaine or
heroin or why why add something like that at all? Well,
it maximizes your profit. Let me explain. It's extremely powerful.

(11:07):
So if you have a pound of heroin, they probably
don't measure it in pounds. But if you have a
pound of heroin, you want to make the most money
you can dealing that heroin. So you're going to try
to cut it up. And I've seen enough drug movies
to know they use all kinds of things, flour and
all kinds of things to make that one pound two pounds.

(11:30):
So no, you're not selling pure heroin. But now you
have twice as much heroin, you make twice as much
money with me so far. But here's the problem. Druggies
know what they're doing, they know what gets them wherever
they want high wise, and they're going to start to
figure out that your heroin isn't as good as the

(11:53):
other guy's heroin. The more you water it down, yeah,
the more money you make once, but then they can't
don't come back to you. Along comes for a drug
dealer a miracle. The miracle is this synthetic, the niazine, fentanyl,
these synthetic, ultra powerful things. Now, if I have my

(12:18):
one pound of heroin, I don't have to just add flour.
I can add my one pound of flour and still
get you just as high because I put just a
little dab of fentanyl in there. Let me clarify too,
This works the exact same way with drugs you think

(12:39):
are legal at that party, at your buddy's house, at
your anything. You don't know where he bought that xanax.
You don't know where he bought that ecstasy, you don't know.
Same thing works. They make it, add a little fentanyl
in it, then your drug goes longer, you make more money.
That's how it works, all right. Now. The Trump administration

(13:01):
wants to tackle this problem. There are two different ways
you have to tackle the problem. First, China. China is
the one sending the ingredients. Mexico is the one bringing
it in and creating it. Here, I should note, you
have to go after both. But China makes this very

(13:22):
very difficult. You see, everything's complicated. Warfare, presidencies, trades, very complicated.
In a vacuum, it's easy to say, we'll just go
after China. It's an active war. You're killing our citizens,
blockade the country for all I care, start launching missiles
in an extreme thing, that's what you would say. All right, Well,

(13:45):
China makes all of our pharmaceuticals, almost all of them.
China manufactures most of our manufacturing, the majority, I shouldn't
say most, the majority of our manufacturing comes from China. Yeah,
we want them to stop sending essentially fentanyl over here.
But is Trump willing to cause a great depression in

(14:08):
the country to do so? Probably not. And if you're
in a leadership position, can't you argue that maybe that's
not the greater or good. Hey, even if I stop
China from sending fentanyl, if I cause a great depression
in twenty five percent unemployment, how many people will die
because of that? Again, it's complicated. So who who's the

(14:33):
soft underbelly in this whole endeavor? Mexico. It's not that
Mexico doesn't provide anything to us, they are a trading partner.
They provide things to us, we provide things to them.
But Mexico, unlike China, they don't have the ability to
cause a great depression in this country. So if you

(14:56):
can't lean hard enough on China, and he is leaning
on China, what don't get me wrong, But if you
can't lean hard enough on China to stop sending the
fentanyl ingredients over here, that only leaves one country, Mexico.
Donald Trump announced that he would declare war on the cartels.
They haven't necessarily declared war thus far. I should clarify

(15:20):
that they haven't declared war thus far. But there are
drones flying over Mexico and the Mexicans know it. The
cartels are aware that they are being forced to surrender
people to the Mexican government. Trump is using trade tariffs
for all this. Now that brings us to where we are.

(15:42):
The Trump administration took the step of officially authorizing the
Pentagon to use military force in Mexico. How is that
going to look? I reached out to a couple different
sources today. Nobody would tell me. So I don't know

(16:03):
right now. It's subject to our interpretation. Does that mean
we're sending the old dev Group boys in there to
put a shot in somebody's head. Maybe Does that mean
a Reaper drone is going to drop some high explosive
items on some cartail guys? Maybe? Is it none of that?
I don't know. I don't think we're going to be

(16:27):
sending up a couple Army divisions in there. I don't
think the one hundred and first Airborne is going to
be air dropping into you know, war is. But I
don't know either way. We'll see where we go from here.
It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Wonderful Tuesday Memory.
If you miss any part of the show, you can

(16:47):
download the whole thing on iHeart, Spotify iTunes. So before
we get onto the other things in the emails, remember
that talk we had at the very beginning of the show.
It's a first hour show. Well, we've had to talk
many times before how the Communists they diversity diversitied us

(17:09):
to death. Diversity is the death of everything. And now
these diversity hires, they're not just in low level positions.
Because the Communists infiltrated and conquered every institution, they have
now taken over large important chunks of our society. They're generals,

(17:29):
they're air traffic controllers, they're university professors, they're CEOs. There,
I mean this, this was Biden's pict ley the.

Speaker 2 (17:37):
FAA Chrish Washington, Can you quickly tell me what airspace
requires an ADSB transponder? I'm not sure I can answer
that question right now. That's okay, We'll just keep going.
So that's a that's a pretty important part. So what
are the six types of special use of airspace that
protect this national security that appear on FAA charts. Sorry,

(18:00):
Senator cannot answer that question. So what are the operational
limitations of a pilot flying under basic med Senator? I'm
not a pilot, so obviously you'd ever see that.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
Yeah, you get the idea. Have you ever heard of
Sarah Stroman? Probably not unless you're listening to me right
now in Minneapolis. Probably not. But Sarah Stroman she was
appointed by Minnesota Governor Tim Walls and it's a pretty important,

(18:30):
important position. They he made her the director of Natural Resources.
It's pretty nice, right. Yeah, here's a headline for you.
One of Minnesota's ten thousand lakes accidentally was drained. It's
a twenty six acre lake, known as Alice Lake. Yeah,

(18:51):
I guess, guess hiring her just because. Oh, by the way,
she was celebrated as the first woman to lead the
Department of Natural Resources. Oh well, yeah, they left a
valve open. The lake's gone, and I mean it's gone.
They're dead fishes laying all over the ground. Diversity hires
were treated by the right understandably as these little annoyances, right,

(19:15):
the diversity higher. That's the new secretary at the office. Okay,
she's a little rude. It's just annoying the diversity higher
in this little job or that little job. It's okay, okay,
you're the insurance company you work for. They have a
new diversity higher. All right, I'll get around it. It's
no big deal. But that's not how communists work. They

(19:36):
weren't playing games. They weren't just trying to put a
little diversity higher stamp on everything. They're fighting a war.
They're fighting a revolution. The revolution they're fighting is the
intentional destruction of everything, as they hand every good thing
in this country over to their allies to be destroyed.

(19:56):
They were dead serious. We woke up one day and
the freaking Chairman of the Joint Chiefs was a diversity
higher diversity. The focus on it will kill anything where
diversity is the focus anything, no matter what it is,
and has time and time and time again. And we

(20:19):
allowed them to weaken us over and over and over
again with rhetoric like this. Jasmine Crockett says Republicans want
to systematically remove black elects rhetoric like this. You don't
think more police make streets safer? Uh no, Joe, I'm
a black woman in America. I do not always think

(20:39):
that more police make streets safer. We allowed them to
use our guilt as a society to weaken our defenses
as they conquered everything, and now we have to sit
and watch as things die. But all that means is
we have to take it back. Hey Jesse, after listening
to your show, it really hit hole what my wife

(21:00):
and I are deliberating over. We live in rural Illinois.
It's a very conservative area. Yeah, a lot of people
actually don't know. Illinois is really red, really really really
read outside of Chicago. If you go look at the map,
the congressional map of Illinois, it's amazing. It's a very
red state. It's just Chicago wounds at all anyway, However,

(21:22):
being that we are in Illinois, we do not have
state protections. We are open to the idea of moving,
but no idea where to go because we feel like
we have it really good in our conservative small town.
So is it better to live and have control than
our own town with the school, et cetera. Or do
we need to get to a red state, even if

(21:42):
it means having to sacrifice knowing the school and the
people in our town. Thanks for your help, beavers Layer.
I'll tell you this. I don't know your personal situation
with work or family or whatnot. Just judging by what
you just emailed there, I would stay. I have told
people to leave. This is the situation where I think

(22:05):
you need to leave, if at all possible, with your
job and your family, if there are no layers of
government protection for you, if every single level of government
above you is openly hostile towards you, if every layer
of government above you is Democrat controlled, you need to

(22:26):
get out, period. Because we are not in the days
of moderate Democrats blue dog Democrats anymore. Those people are gone,
and the ones who maybe still are they know they
can't act that way. We are in the era where
Democrats are communists, and they will use their government power
to smash their political enemies. They have proven it over

(22:50):
and over and over and over again. So you say
you're in rural Illinois, nice red town, nice red school,
nice red neighbors, nice red Well, that means you have
a layer of protection of government protection above you. No,
the state's not with you. That sucks. But you have

(23:10):
a county. I'm assuming you have a town. I'm assuming
that matters. That matters a lot. Not if you're in Manhattan,
not if you're in Los Angeles. If you're listening right
now and you're in Los Angeles, you don't have any friends.
You have mortal enemies and positions of power above you.

(23:31):
If you get caught jaywalking, they are going to send
you to San Quentin. If they can. They will, you know,
I'm right, the mayor will, the chief of Don't think
the chief of police is going to step in. Don't
let that uniform fool you anymore. I already outlined earlier
how they focused to spread this communism to police agency
after police agency across the United States of America. There's nobody,

(23:56):
nobody on your side. They all hate you, and they
will all destroy you. The first chance they get. You
don't have the cops, you don't have the mayor. You
don't you definitely don't have the DA. You don't have
the governor. You you have nothing. If that is your situation,
then you need to act as if you are in

(24:17):
hostile territory, because you are. I know it's going to
sound overblown. I guess maybe in a way it is.
But if that was my situation, I would act like
I was in North Korea. You essentially are. You know
North Korea. They'll they'll throw you in the gulag for
twenty years for spitting on the sidewalk. Oh, they're so crazy.

(24:40):
Tell me that's different than New York Daniel Penny chokes
out a guy on the subway making threats. They did
everything they could. If it wasn't for a jury, they
did everything they could to send that man to state
prison for the rest of his natural life. You can't
even step in and stop a bad man, They'll send
you to prison. I would never hit a million years

(25:03):
live in that environment. Me personally, it's just me. I
would not live in an environment where I can't have
a gun on me period. I'm going to kill someone
who tries to kill me without a moment of hesitation,
and if I have to worry about going to prison
for that, I'm not living there. Oh, visit, I'll pop
in and out. I ain't going to advertise it beforehand.

(25:23):
That's not for you. That's for the communist who would
love to kill me. I'm not advertising it. But I'm
not living anywhere where I can't kill you if you
try to kill me. Just not doing it. If I
was in a lovely little red town, though in an
unfortunate Bruce blue state, I'd be out. It is the
Jesse Kelly Show Final Sacre of The Jesse Kelly Show

(25:47):
on What's been an Awesome Tuesday. Remember you can email
us Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com, Jesse at Jesse
kellyshow dot com. Let's do some of those emails before
we get the headlines. Jesse is sexual impropriety endemic or
systemic of the modern Democrat Party. That is to say,

(26:10):
to so many public school officials and teachers turn out
to be pedophiles or otherwise degenerate because the culture of
the party naturally leads to these behaviors. Feel free to
word the question differently if you address it on air,
so on and so forth. Okay, well, there is something

(26:30):
that I most definitely have noticed because I follow the news,
and you probably have noticed as well because you follow
the news, and that is the unbelievable volume of school
teachers slash administrators slash coaches who end up getting involved
with their students. I know kids are listening. I have

(26:54):
to hand out the PG version of this, but you
know what I'm talking about. Everyone knows what I'm talking about.
So first of all, we have to always keep this
in mind. We have to always build this in when
it comes to whenever we see a story where we say,
why is there so much more of this today than before? Remember,

(27:14):
there was a time in human history not that long ago,
where humans didn't own books. You had to go down
to the local monastery to find someone who could read. Now, okay,
I realized we've advanced past that. But you have access

(27:38):
to information that other human beings have not had to
deal with, gigantic quantities of information, immediate information. If there
is a mass shooting going on right now, picture this
I'm doing. I'm in the middle of a radio segment.
If there is a mass shooting right now, you will

(28:01):
know before I will because I'm not looking at my phone.
If you're looking at your phone or something like that,
you will know about it before I will. And I
do this for a living instant information, plane crash, mass shooting,
something big, Trump says something that you know about it
before I know about it. Instant information. Human beings have

(28:24):
never ever, You do live in a unique time. Never
in human history have human beings had access to that
much information that fast. Don't think that this is the
only era where teachers were getting involved with their students.
It's just if someone does it now in Alaska or

(28:45):
Florida or New Mexico or Maine and everywhere in between,
you know about it the second it comes across your phone.
So it seems like there's a lot more now than
it used to be. But let's get past that little
build in. Let's assume it is that now we have

(29:07):
to keep in mind that a lot of professions that
have our respect and deserve our respect are still full
of scumbags, and that's hard to accept. You know, we
automatically when we see a law enforcement officer, there's an
automatic respect given there because that's a human being who

(29:30):
straps it on every day and might die stopping a
bad man. That's a an elevated level of respect, no
question about it. I send pizzas to my local cop shop.
I love cops, do but man, there are some scumbag
cops out there. Total dirtball cops, no question about it.
Don't believe me. Go look at the ones during COVID.

(29:52):
All kinds of dirtball cops out there. The teaching profession
is like this too. Those who aren't called to do
it and those who don't do it will naturally respect
a woman. I'll just call it a woman because most
of them are women. A woman then at all have
to be By the way, there are some great male teachers.
A woman who presides over someone else's kids and tries

(30:16):
to teach them, tries to educate them. That profession automatically
comes with a certain level of respect, But we have
to keep in mind it is also going to invite predators.
It just is. I mean, I hate to ruin your
weekend fun, but you've been to your local arcade with

(30:39):
your kid. Any adults working at that arcade, I'm not
talking about the sixteen year old doing a summer job.
Is there a thirty year old man working at the arcade.
How do you think that is? We have to be
aware that people who purposely put them selves around legions

(31:02):
of other children, strange children. Sometimes they are the best
people in the world and have the best motivations in
the world, there's no question about it. And sometimes they're
freaking predators who are there to be predators. They're there
because that's where the prey is. I mean, how many
dirty commy teachers have we played for you? I love
teaching my kindergarten about gayness, and we've said, that's not

(31:26):
a teacher, that's a predator. She sought out that profession
so she could pray on children. I think there's a
lot of that today. A lot of teachers aren't teachers,
they're predators. There you go, and now here's a headline.
You know the things headlines we didn't get to judge

(31:49):
orders teens charged in doze staffer attack in DC to
remain in youth custody. Oh those teens again, man, that
gun teen seem to have met a lot of crimes
out there. Cracker Barrel customers hate restaurant chains, new look
and viral social media videos. Yeah, because once again, Cracker Barrel,

(32:11):
like most great American companies got conquered by dirty commies.
The last time I was in a cracker barrel, there
was a bunch of LGBTQ garbage in there, so of
course I'm not walking in again. And I've seen the pictures.
It's no longer cracker barrel, it's every other garbage company.
Court has ruled that calling a man bald can be
considered sexual harassment. A lot of you were going to

(32:32):
hear from my lawyer over fifty thousand migrants crossed the
channel since the UKPM is elected. They're not migrants, they're invaders,
they're illegals, they're foreigners. Marriage addiction inside the lives of
people who just can't stop saying I do. Apparently that's

I interview experts, celebrities, thought leaders and athletes so that we can grow our mindset, build better habits and uncover a side of them we’ve never seen before.
