Balding Bronco. It's not very nice. Oh, by the way,
speaking of not very nice. Speaking of balding. You know,
sometimes I've told you before there are times in life

(00:23):
as you get older that hurt emotionally. You know, one
of the things that's hurting me emotionally, I've told you
about the barber mentioning. Hey, should we get your eyebrows?
You know what happened at the doctor's office today. I'm
at the doctor's office, so I told you I had
to go to the doctor for my kid today. Back

(00:44):
there with the doctor, they they have some machine contraption
thing in there that I'd never seen before. You know,
I'm an idiot. I don't know what anything is. And
I asked it what's that? They said, Oh, that's for
a micro needling and all kind of Okay, Okay, I
don't really know what any of these words mean. Okay,
And you know what he said to me. Now, kid,

(01:07):
you not Hey, you know, maybe you should look into it.
It can stimulate hair growth. It's not funny, Chris. It hurts,
you know it hurts. But no, I'm not looking into it. Chris. No,
I'm not looking into it. I refuse anyway. Balding Bronco,
Is there any situation where beans are acceptable in food?

(01:28):
Chili baked beans as a side, refried beans? His name's Dan. No,
beans are disgusting. If you want to, if you want to.
The only I can't stress this enough. Only acceptable form
of bean is maybe a reasonable amount of refried beans

(01:50):
on a nacho. Now, when I say reasonable amount, I
have to stress this because nobody knows how to make nachos.
People think this is this always always bothered me. You've
heard me rants on this before. When a restaurant gets
an order for nachos, the kitchen interprets that as a quote,
easy thing to make and a throwaway meal. So what

(02:13):
do they do? They all do it? What do they do?
They take a gigantic pile of chips and they chuck
them on a plate, and then you know, they just
have a big scooper back there, there's big scoop of
this and right there on it, and then a big
scoop of this and right there on it just no thought,
no care in the world. And so you get your

(02:34):
plate of nachos out and one chip has twelve pounds
of green beans and no cheese. The next two chips
over have all the cheese. There's no cheese on anything else.
Start taking care of the nachos. That's one. Two. Anytime
you get refried beans on a nacho, they overdo it.
I am okay with the little smidge of refried bean

(03:00):
or a little smidge there. The refried beans are not
the star of the nacho. What Chris? What? What about
refried beans on a taco?

Speaker 2 (03:11):
Uh?

Speaker 1 (03:13):
Not for me. But I'm not gonna kill you on it.
I'm not gonna kill you on it. I could do it. Yeah,
if you can eat it on a nacho, you can
eat it on a taco. Not personally my thing, I
get it, but again, within reason, within reason. If I
bite into the taco and I've got refried bean dripping
down my chin like I'm Lindsey Graham, I'm going to

(03:34):
be upset. What Chris? What? It's fine, Jesse. The school
year is about to begin. I've been teaching for over
twenty years in public education, which American history lesson? If
you could pick just one? Should all elementary students know? Brother,

(03:55):
you're the history teacher. Now do you think it's cool though,
that history people ask me that stuff? And no, I'm
just joking. His name's Dan. I'm just god, I think
it's cool you asked me that stuff. If I had
to pick just one, the Battle of Long Island, I
would say the Battle of Long Island. Actually, did you

(04:18):
just say? What's that? Chris? You don't know? Oh my gosh,
you seriously don't know what the Battle of Long Island is. Okay,
here's what I'm going to do after I'm done doing
the Andersonville history, which I think will only be one show,
probably one hour. I might get to it next week.
I'll try to. I gotta try to finish up my

(04:38):
research this weekend. I have kids sports this weekend, so
I might not be able to get to enough of it.
But after Andersonville, I will tell you the story of
the Battle of Long Island. Know it wasn't between the
Italians and Jews. What's wrong with you, Chris? This is
a revolutionary war battle. What the I get so frustrated
sometimes with him? No, it was here. I'll give you

(05:00):
one of the highlights. One of the highlights of it.
George Washington was outnumbered. He did not have replacement troops
the way the British had replacement troops. He had to
get his men out of this situation. He had to escape,
that was the idea, and he didn't have time to escape.

(05:21):
They were up against the water. The British were coming,
and the thickest, densest fog out of nowhere descends onto
the area. The British can't see, they don't know where
he is, they can't come out him in the fog.
He starts shuttling people across the water while the fog

(05:42):
is there, like some kind of a miracle. When he
gets him across, the fog lifts. Yeah, I mean, it's
one of those things. Yo. God, it's clearly it's the
parting of the Red Sea, right, God got him across,
God got him out of there. And then look, it's
a cool story anyway, I'll tell you the story of
the Battle of Long Island. But it's one of those
ones that I realized it's fairly obscure that moron Chris

(06:05):
didn't even know what it was. A lot of people,
unless you're a revolutionary war nut a lot of people
don't know about the Battle of Long Island. You know,
they know Lexington and Concord or some of these things.
They know the kind of the big names Cornwallace and
things like that. But it's a really really cool story
that you said elementary school. Elementary school kids will be

(06:28):
wowed by. You don't have to you don't have to
fluff it up. Tell the story. Honestly, it's really cool.
And the reason I like it for kids is there's
such a wow factor for how our country was created,
like just so many things. We should not have won.
We should not have what we have today, but we do.
And I think it's a cool thing to teach kids.

(06:49):
All Right, let's talk about why Democrat women are ugly,
the cost of healthcare? Should lobbying be illegal? Next? It
is is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Wonderful Friday,
and asked doctor Jesse Friday, it is so exciting to
be here. Let's take into some more of these questions.

(07:11):
There are so many freaking good ones coming. We'll talk
about Democrats benefiting from Trump's policies. We have to get
to the cost of health care lobbying. Let's do this
one first. Jesse. I love your show, especially your military
history segments. Question about communist women. Why are most communist
slash Democrat women not attractive? Is there a link between

(07:35):
their rejection from men and their younger years? Just curious
why they seem to be lonely, unattractive women. All right,
So there are a couple different things that happen here.
Remember remember that it's about destruction of everything, everything good,

(07:55):
everything beautiful. It's not just destruction of capitalism or destruction
of a business, or of the Boys Scouts, or of
Hollywood or the FBI. It's everything. It is hard for
a normal person to understand how the communist hates everything.

(08:17):
It's hard for a normal person to understand why a
communist would wreck certain things. Why would they go here,
why would they go there? Why would they infiltrate this? What?
Because you don't look at the world the way a
communist looks at the world. A communist looks at the
world as all the institutions, everything established, governments, religions, family, itself, beauty,

(08:46):
it's all evil because everyone doesn't have it, and so
what we need to do is to tear it all down.
If you have a house, I want to tear it down.
If you are hot, I want to make you ugly.
If you are successful, I want to make you poor.
If you have a family, I want to break it up.
If you don't think in evil terms like that, and

(09:09):
you can't because you're not the devil, Communism is of
the devil. It's about destroying everything, including women's beauty, where
normal people don't. What normal people oftentimes do not get
is women. Communist women, once they have been sucked into
that demonic religion, will destroy their own beauty on purpose,

(09:33):
on purpose, not accidental. You know, I'm gonna say something.
It's gonna sound really freaking hokey, but it's true. All
women are beautiful. Did you know that all women are?
Genuinely at their core, all women are beautiful. Doesn't matter tall, short,

(09:55):
maybe you're a little chunky, maybe you're too skinny, black, white,
and not Italians. But no, I'm kidding. All women are beautiful.
They all are and have the ability to be beautiful.
Beautiful smile, a beautiful smile from a woman, it's the
most beautiful thing on her carries the room, carries the room.

(10:16):
But a Communist woman anything beautiful about her in an
effort to become more part of the group, will destroy
her own beauty on purpose. You look at these feminist
rallies and you think to yourself, Oh, my gosh, who
let the pharaoh pigs out into the streets? And what Chris,

(10:38):
it's fine, And you think to yourself, why are they
all so ugly? I have news for you. There are
a lot of women in there that could be beautiful.
They couldn't show up at a feminist rally beautiful. You
can't show up and be the only beautiful feminist there.
They'll hate your guts for it. So you buzz your

(10:58):
head down and he starts sticking a bunch of piercings
in your face. And get the ugliest possible tattoos you can.
You put on man jeans, you make sure you smell,
you don't shave your armpits. You ugly yourself and look.
Even the most beautiful women in the world, whoever you
think she may be, can be ugly with a bit
of effort. Trust me, she can be. It's just the

(11:21):
way it is. We all can be. They do it
on purpose, and it's so insanely sad. I say it's
insanely sad because I really I hate that so many
women who succumbed, well, every woman who succumbs to it.
I hate that They're all so miserable and will always
be until they choose. If they choose, many never do.

(11:44):
If they choose to leave the religion, it will be
like a weight off of their shoulders. I've told you
about jan Glardi before, that former Kami who has now
come completely over to our side. And that's how she
describes it, like this gigantic burden that is always weighing
her down with guilt and shame lifted off of her shoulders.

(12:05):
Says she feels free now and I want that for everybody,
men and women. But it really saddens me, like these look,
I'm gonna make fun of her, but this is Dome's
step daughter, Kamala Harris's stepdaughters. Listen to this. She looks
like weird al and listen to her.

Speaker 2 (12:23):
I think everything with the environment is really getting to me,
and it is one I experience a lot of climate anxiety,
like a lot of let's do it's not funny. It's
just like it's one of those things. It's not funny,
but you just like nervous laugh about it because it's scary.

(12:45):
It is. It's all of these things are happening, and like,
what are what besides the small things we can do
and pushing for change and fighting and protesting, and it's
really hard not to sit in those moments where just
feel so heavy.

Speaker 1 (13:03):
Isn't that sad? And look, it is heavy.

Speaker 2 (13:08):
It is as heavy as ten boxes that you might
be moving.

Speaker 1 (13:12):
I'm kidding, But isn't that sad? That that's a young lady?
That young lady could be beautiful. Of course, I'm not
saying she has to be your type or my type,
but she could be a pretty girl. Just put a
smile on your face and makes you prettier anyway. She
could be pretty happy, contend. Instead, she's putting up internet

(13:38):
videos talking about how much climate change is essentially destroying her.
Isn't that sad? That's terrible, terrible? All right, Jesse, I'm
curious what your take is on the rising cost of healthcare.
I'm twenty five years old. I work in the medical field,

(14:00):
but suffer from a variety of health conditions that are
difficult to manage and often result in frequent hospital visits
and medical bills. Managing health conditions is stressful enough as
is without worrying about whether or not you can afford medication.
Do you think our healthcare system needs to be reformed?

(14:22):
If so, how feel free to say my name? Her
name is Kate. Okay, First of all, I am sorry,
not just to Kate, but to anybody who suffers from
ongoing medical things. This is something that I have experience

(14:42):
within my own not my personal life, but people close
to me go through this. And it's just if you
don't go through it, or don't have someone going through it,
you don't realize the constant maintenance. You're constantly getting sick,
you're constantly spending a four just well, I won't go

(15:02):
into the details of who it was. Just had a
little vacation, little mini like extended weekend vacation ruined because
she ate something. There was something in it. She's hyper
allergic to Celiac disease. The restaurant didn't tell her. It
didn't ruin an hour. She spent the next two days

(15:24):
vomiting in her hotel room. I mean, and that's just
like that kind of stuff, like how many how many
days weekends, vacations, work days. It's soul sucking. It is
The Jesse Kelly Show. On a wonderful Friday and asked
doctor Jesse Friday, don't forget you can email us during

(15:44):
the show. We are live here Jesse at Jesse kellyshow
dot com. We still have to talk about so many
wonderful things, Jesse. Why is lobbying legal? If I take
more than a pen from a potential vendor, it's considered
a conflict of Okay, So this is one of those
things that people on the right will talk about and

(16:09):
complain about. And it's a very understandable thing that people
do complain about it lobbying. In fact, you've probably heard,
and I know you've heard, maybe you've said it yourself.
Why don't we ban lobbying. Let's ban lobbying. This should
ban lobbying. Let me go ahead and be daddy Jesse
and burst your bubble on a couple of things. First,

(16:32):
the right to bring your grievances to Congress is right
there in the Bill of Rights. It is in the
Bill of Rights. It is now okay, pause for a second.
You what do you want your government to do? What's

(16:53):
something you're hot on right now? Maybe maybe you want
term limits or or more deportation. You want your taxes
to go down, or you want abortion band or whatever
it is. Have you ever brought your desires to an
elected official, local, state, federal? I hope you have. I

(17:16):
hope you've at least fired off an email or something.
I hope you have. Well, what do you think that was?
Is that not lobbying. I'm gonna get to I know
the corruption. I'm gonna get to it in a minute.
But is that not lobbying? Well, no, that's just me. Okay,

(17:38):
you've never you've never gathered some friends up and had
them all send an email. You understand that's one of
the most effective forms of making changes, especially locally and
in your state. Your city councilman doesn't get many emails.
Your state rep, your state senator, they don't get many emails.
If you could gather up ten of your friends, change
the wording, bombard your state rep with emails about some

(18:01):
specific issue, I bet you'll get a response, if not action.
Have you done that? Even if you haven't done that,
no judgment, Even if you haven't done that, what would
you call that? That's lobbying? Now? I hate lobbyists, interests,
spending a fortune, corporate interests, foreign interest, you name it.

(18:25):
I hate the thought that there is any entity, local, foreign, whatever,
that will cobble together a large quantity of money and
go lobby our government for what essentially amounts to handouts.
That's what they're all lobbying for. Who's the biggest lobby
what's the biggest lobbying Armed Pharma, Big Pharma? Why does

(18:48):
big farmers spend so much money on lobbying Congress because
they still want gigantic quantities of your money handed out
to them. That's horrible, that's corrupt. But who's the bad
guy in that situation? If I'm a big farmer Rep.
Which I am not, as you well know. If I'm

(19:09):
a big farmer Rep. Jesse Pharma, and I want some
more chead of cheese from the American taxpayer, I want
Congress to write me a ten million dollar check for
my new drug, the anti Chris drug. If I want
ten million dollars from Congress to create the anti Chris drug,

(19:30):
and I go and I spend a fortune lobbying thirty
different congressmen to sponsor a bill so I can get
some anti Chris drug money. And those thirty congressmen sponsor
that bill because I lobbied them, because I gave them
campaign cash. Am I the bad guy in that situation?

(19:51):
You can argue maybe it's a little dirty, You can
argue maybe it's unethical. But am I the bad guy
in that situation? Or is it the dirty congressman who
took money to put something in a bill to hand
out to the guy who lobbied for it. You can
hate lobbying, and you can hate these big money interests,
and I do. By the way, I hate it. I

(20:13):
hate this big money lobbying. I hate that our politicians
are so easily bought. You can hate it, and I do.
But it is in the Bill of Rights one in two.
It is the congressman who is at fault. It is
the one who writes and signs on to all this
corrupt legislation. They're the ones at fault. The United States

(20:33):
of America. Remember, at any level of government, in your
town and your county, in your state, and in your country,
there is a treasury that pot gets bigger as you
go up the chain. I'm here in Houston. Houston has
a treasury, a large one. Texas has an even bigger one.
The United States of America has an even bigger one.

(20:54):
And whenever you have a big pot of money. It's
like a suitcase full of cash sitting on the sidewalk.
People are going to look at it and they're going
to try to figure out how to stick their dirty,
greasy fingers in it. That is inevitable. The treasury of
the United States of America is huge, and countries and
companies are going to spend a fortune to get access

(21:17):
to that treasury. It is your congressman who allows them.
It is your senator who allows them, allows them and
encourages them. Mitch McConnell. Look, we can point to just Democrats,
but it's not true. Mitch McConnell, Lindsey Graham, these types.

(21:40):
They're as bought and paid for politicians as exist on
the planet, completely owned by Washington, big money interests of
various kinds. Now, shouldn't we change that by changing them?
This all comes back to not the lobbyist, not the

(22:04):
company that you hate, not the country you hate. This
all comes back to the voter. If Lansagram is thinking
about doing yet another gigantic, unpaid for handout to the
military industrial complex and you don't like that, well, Lanzi
Graham should be afraid. He should be afraid of losing

(22:27):
his seat in the Senate. He should have to make
a decision. Well, I could hand this money out, but
then I'm gonna lose my seat. If our senators and
congressmen are unafraid, it's our fault, not the lobbyist part fault.
We're assigning blame to the wrong entity.
