Revolutions are generally not led by the best people. ISIS and Al Queda just took over Syria. A free Syria is not in the cards. Sharing a group with someone doesn’t mean you have to answer to every dumb thing someone else in the group does. Can a normal guy primary a senator? An update on the Pete Hegseth nomination.

Speaker 1 (00:11):
This is a Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show. Another hour of the
Jesse Kelly Show on a magnificent Tuesday.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
And here's what we got.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
We're gonna talk, well, we're gonna have an offensive talk
in a moment about foreign lands, dictators, people, nations. Probably
gonna offend pretty much everybody. That'll always be a good time.
A little update on the Pete hagg says stuff. Mitch
McConnell suffered a fall, if you will, we'll talk about, well,
the communists in Blue States. I'm in a bag on
(00:46):
Chuck Grassley. All that and so much more still to
come on the world famous Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
But first let's begin here.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
You know, one of the reasons America is so unique historically,
it's actually very hard to find another country like it.
And I'm not doing just kind of the America raw
raw stuff that I'm prone to do from time to time.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
That's not what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
America is very unique because America thought a revolution against
the existing power structure one and turned out better than
it was before. And it's actually that part of our
(01:34):
DNA is wonderful. I'm glad we have it. But it
is also it really really taints our worldview on things. First,
let's talk about that most revolutions, almost all revolutions, they
start at least in part that rhymed because there's a distrust, distaste,
(01:59):
hatred for, or whatever the existing power structure as happens
to be a king, a government, whatever kind it is,
and so there starts to be an appetite for revolution.
I want to cast this evil dictator off. He's bad,
he does bad things. However, revolutions are not most of
(02:21):
the time led by the sharpest people, by people who
want what's best for society, by godly people. By that's
not who generally leads revolutions. Revolutions are generally led by
the ones who have the most violent capacity. The most
capacity for violence is how I want to put that.
(02:44):
Who is the strongest, the meanest, who has the most guns,
who commands the most troops. Those are the people who
oftentimes lead revolutions. So it's easy to get revolutionary people
on board because because they're unhappy with the horrible current
government you have. However, being on board with the revolution
(03:08):
sounds really really nice, until, of course, the revolution is
over and let's hope your revolution is successful, and then
you have to figure out.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Who's going to lead the new country.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
It's one thing to shuttle the king out the back
door and send him off to the countryside.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Or the guillotine.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
It's quite another for someone else to sit in the
throne and rule. Here in the United States of America,
we threw a king a nation off of our back.
Get out of here, England. We don't want you to
rule over us anymore. And what makes us so unique
(03:50):
on the world stage is we threw off a bad
government and brought in a better one. Or an American
the concept of revolt, rebellion against a corrupt government. It
can be very appealing for an American because we're one
(04:11):
of the very few that worked out for for most people,
not just in this current world we live in. For
most people. Historically, revolution sounds great in the beginning, and
in the end it ends up so much worse than
(04:34):
anything you had before. That is not the exception, that
is the norm. We Americans don't have that view of revolution,
that that accurate view of revolution, which we should have
because ours worked out for us. And so whenever we
hear of people anywhere fighting for freedom, we think, yeah,
(04:56):
get rid of that government.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
We did it. Look how great it worked for us?
Speaker 3 (05:00):
US?
Speaker 2 (05:01):
How many revolutions could I point to?
Speaker 1 (05:04):
How many?
Speaker 2 (05:05):
You know what? Let's start with Haiti. They had a revolution.
They had some of the most barbaric chattel slavery there
I've ever seen, harvesting sugar cane. There, slaves, the African
slaves there were living in hell. And they had a
revolution and everyone cheered for it. Even historically you read
about it and you're like, yeah, oh my gosh, screw
(05:25):
those slave owners.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Dah have a revolution.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
How are things in Haiti today? They're eating each other.
Cuba had a revolution. Let's get rid of these American
puppets in the government corrupt and they were American puppets
and they were corrupt. How did it work out for
the Cuban people in the end? Russia had a revolution
and the Tsars were bad at the end, mismanaging things, brutal, awful.
(05:54):
No fan of the Tsarist regime is certainly at the
end of it. So they had a revolution. We've had
enough of these Tsars. This is ridiculous, and the people
had every right to hate those oars. Ah, how do
you think they felt about ten years later under communist rule.
(06:15):
Revolution after revolution after revolution sounds wonderful until you get
to the end part, which is pretty important. So I
heard this today. What you're going to hear, it's for
radio purposes, so I have to explain it to you.
There's a lady over there in Syria. CNN sent one
(06:37):
of their foreign reporters over to Syria, and she's talking.
The voice you're going to hear is this young lady,
This young Syrian lady. Now, this young lady, this matters
for the purpose of our conversation, is really pretty beautiful,
beautiful young lady. Beautiful young lady wearing Western clothes, nothing risky.
(06:57):
But she's got a little little thing, some kind of
bow thing in her hair, something my wife would wear.
She's got a sweater sweatshirt on of some kind. And
like I said, beautiful young lady looks speed at thirties,
maybe forty years old. And in Syria, they just got
rid of a very very very bad man Assad. Him
(07:18):
and his father spent half a century butchering the people
in Syria. She wanted to get rid of him. And
she goes to the camera talks to CNN. Here's what
she said.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
You know, some people are concerned that a lot of
the rebels are Islamists, they are from organizations that have
extremist ties.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
Do you worry about for me?
Speaker 2 (07:40):
After what I have witnessed yesterday and what.
Speaker 5 (07:43):
Happened in Sidnaya prison, this is absolutely fine.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Let's have a billions, Let's have this Islamic whatever over
going out.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
This is more.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
This is more peaceful than what the regime and the
acid regime was doing to our mother, to our daughters, to.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
Our people here in Syria. Anything that would come after
the asadgi would be.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
More more, more, more humanic, or more humane.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
You can say this is okay.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
So she's obviously stumbling over the words a little bit there,
but to paraphrase, she's the reporter essentially asked her, so
isis al Kada they're taking over Syria? There are concerns
about that. You beautiful, young lady, no hijab on, nice
little bow when you're here, very pretty? What do you
think about that?
Speaker 6 (08:35):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Nothing could be worse than a sod This is that. Look,
after what these people have done, we're totally on board
bring in those al Qaeda types, those Islamic types, young lady.
I don't I don't think you've spent five minutes thinking
(08:56):
about what's coming for you now. And that's the sad
truth about revolution. And this is a cautionary tale for
all of us, because I know that revolutionary fervor has
welled up in you from time to time. Given the
corruption of our government recently and things like that, that
young lady probably has every good reason in the world
(09:19):
to hate assad hate his regime. Her own mother may
have been tortured to death. She has every reason in
the world to crave revolution, and so very obviously she
got involved in whatever way she did, and helped get
her support behind that revolution, and revolution she got in
a sod is gone. In a year from now, that
(09:43):
young lady's life is going to be hell. If she's
even still alive. A year from now, in fact, appearing
on television without any coverings at all, with makeup on
her face, may they have already doomed that young lady
to death. Isis al Qaeda they watch CNN two, They
(10:07):
may already have her name and her face written down.
She may not last a month. I brought this up
for a couple different reasons, because we have to have
an offensive talk about dictatorships and revolutions, But just to
put a little bow on this particular portion of it,
be careful, whether it's in your country or abroad. Be
(10:30):
careful celebrating revolutions, as evil as so many regimes are,
and I acknowledge they are. In Assad most definitely was
be very very very careful supporting a revolution. Ninety nine
point nine percent of the time you come out the
back end worse than you were before. Remember that.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
So let's talk dictatorships.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
Before we do that, let's talk about chalk so we
can think clearly about it. Do you want to see
clearly enough to know that your house has a rat problem?
Do you want to be man enough to reject all
past control attempts by outsiders so you can handle the
professional job of rat killing all to yourself. Well, you're
(11:17):
gonna need testosterone for that, fellas, And if you're drinking estrogen,
which you are every day, you're not gonna have the.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
T levels necessary.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
But chalk can get those tea levels jacked up to
the point you can take on rats. Here's what you
need to do. You need to focus on natural herbal supplements.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Tuesday. And yeah,
this young lady in Syria, beautiful young lady wearing a
nice pretty bow in her hair, sweatshirt on makeup.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
On she's telling CNN.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
She is thrilled they had a revolution and a sod
is gone.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
This is absolutely amazing. After all of the years we
are live on the international TV. This is this is amazing,
This is unspeakable.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
This is us after fifty years of darkness.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
This is us after fifty years of death.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
This is absolutely amazing.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Isis just took over, young lady. You are about to
be covered, potentially killed for what you just said on
national television. But you are about to be covered and
shipped off like a piece of livestock to somebody.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
And so let's talk.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
We have seen time after time after time, what is
it work out this way? So often we've seen, just
in recent memory, we don't even have to go that deep. Historically,
we've seen Saddam Hussein go down, Iraq turns into a
butcher factory. We've seen Gaddafi go down in Libya. Not
long after Gaddafi went down, you realize they had open
(13:18):
slave markets. That's how bad Libya fell. When I say
open slave markets, I have pictures and video of them.
In fact, you can probably find them online where you
have people just exactly what you'd picture, people in chains
on stage, people are bidding on their slaves. In Libya,
a sad, a nightmare of a human being. Torture, death,
(13:41):
horrible just went down in Syria. Be very careful what
you wish for. And here's the truth. Being kind as
a leader. Being kind as a leader is a gift
that is given to you, and it only comes in
(14:03):
the form of having a good population that shares a culture. Period,
end of story. If you find yourself as a leader,
whether you're a president, a king, a dictator, whatever you are,
if you are in charge of a population and you
(14:24):
are able to be kind and good, it is good.
I want you to be that. You should aspire to
be that. But it is because you have a cohesive culture.
You have a cohesive, peaceful society of good people. Other
people in charge of other parts of the world. They
(14:44):
do not have the luxury of kindness. And I am
not at all endorsing the barbaric things that dictators used
to do and continue to do in this world. I am, however,
saying this. If you think you're going to step into
a palace in Iraq and take over that country and
(15:06):
rule over the various tribes and Islamic sects and the
Baptists and the other If you think you're going to
step into the fifty different cultures who all want to
tear each other's eyes out, and you are going to
lead that country with kindness towards peace, you have lost
your ever loving mind. If you think you're going to
(15:26):
step into Syria with the Kurds, You've got Isis, You've
got al Kaida, al Kada's fighting, Isis al Kada's joining
with Isis. You have Turkey on the border. They're against you,
You're there for you. Russia is kind of for you.
They like your port, but they might not be. If
you think you're going to lead a society like that
with kindness, with empathy, If you think you're going to
(15:46):
lead people like that the right way. You've got another
thing coming. What I'm trying to say is there are
parts of the world, at various parts in history, who
can only and will only be led by vicious men.
And frankly, if you look at the course of human history,
it's hard to argue against what I just said. Kindness
(16:11):
in leadership is a luxury.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
You know.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
I walk in the studio here. I got Jewish producer,
Cris producer Corey here, work here in the studio. I
walk in the studio here. I don't yell and scream
unless I'm yelling at myself for about some idiot.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
But I certainly would never yell at them.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
Don't have to don't have to tell them to show
up to work on time, don't have to tell them
to get their stuff done. I don't have to threaten this,
I'll fire you tomorrow. Why is that? Is that because
I'm so nice? No, I'm a total jerk. I don't
have to. I have the luxury of walking in here
and being kind. If I walked in here and it
was two eighteen year old morons, they can't dress right,
(16:50):
they don't get to work done, don't show up to
work on time to screwing this up, to screwing that up,
I would have to come in here throwing things, screaming
and yelling to try to get people squared away the
way that the way they need to be. I am
given the gift of being able to be kind at
work because I have two very capable people who handle
things completely on their own. If you are God forbid
(17:15):
ever put in a leadership situation and the people underneath
you are a disaster, Oh, I understand. You may want
to lead with kindness and make everything nice. You better
put that stuff away and you better lead with some force,
because it's the only way to handle situations like that.
(17:36):
We don't like to imagine that parts of the globe
have to be led by a monster like as Sod
he dropped chemical weapons on his own citizens. We look
at things like that and we're mortified, and we say
to ourselves that guy is a demon. He should never
be in charge of anything. Well, maybe it's going to
(17:56):
take a guy like that to hold a disaster like
Syria together. And if you remove a guy like that,
maybe you're about to find out why it takes a
guy like that to hold Syria together. Some people, some cultures.
Some countries are made to be ruled and that sucks,
(18:18):
but that's the truth. Anyway, Let's do some emails before
we move on and do other things.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
I want to. Oh, let's do one right here.

Speaker 3 (20:01):
Yes, it's a Ben from California. Hey, you were talking
about her Man Cortes the other day and there's a
great book called Conquistador Voices. It's no fluff. It's like
the journals from the guys that traveled with them, talks
of Columbus Cortes, Toto. It's a really good book. So
there you go.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
Conquista Door Voices. I have never read this book before.
One more time on the air. That's a three banger.
So you don't have to email me and ask me
the name of the book. Conquista Door Voices.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
Take it from Ben himself. Conquista Door Voices the name
of the book. Anyway, I might have to pick that up.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Jesse.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
My shame is I guess she wants her name read.
The subject of this one is you are so refreshing.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
I am refreshing, Chris.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
What I'm like a cold beverage with lots of fresh ice, Chris. Anyway,
my name is Michelle Hardaway and I'm a seventy one
year old black lady from Rochester, New York. I listened
to podcasts all night long. I was listening to Tucker
Carlson one night when you were on From Then I
became a listener of your show. Start out by saying,
I pray for your family at the loss of your father.
(21:10):
Glad to hear your mother as a church family that
came aside along her at her loss. This is what
churches are supposed to do.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Yes, it is.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
This morning I woke up to you talking about Jasmine Crockett.
You are right, she's a clown. I don't find her
amusing at all. She's in the same camp as Joy Reid,
Maxine Waters, Whoopy Goldberg. They make me ashamed, As my
grandmother used to tell us when we were growing up.
They are my color, but they're not my kind Sadly,
(21:37):
they get all the airtime in the media. Carol Swain's
Gonda Lisa Rice don't get much play on the air.
They're accomplished black women who are much better at role models.
I keep you with my prayers too. I'm sure you've
been attacked for speaking the truth. Keep the faith because
your reward is not on this side of heaven as
much as it will be on the other side. God
bless Okay, So I wanted to read this for a
(21:59):
writing for reasons. One, thank you, Michelle, I appreciate it.
But two, there is something that I, honestly I probably
should say. Every black person I think I've ever known
in my life goes through that I don't like, and
I've tried to talk them out of I don't like
it at all, a minority to be a minority in
(22:22):
a country. If you are an extreme minority. You know,
let's take it to Syria right now. If you were
a Christian in Syria or a Jew, although I don't
think there are any you people left in Syria, Chris,
it's been a dangerous but we'll make it. A Christian Okay,
you're a Christian in Syria. The Jews are all gone.
You're a Christian in Syria, you're an extreme minority right now. Now,
(22:43):
I acknowledge that that is a unique experience because everyone doesn't.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Look like you.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
The culture is not yours, the culture of the government
is not yours. Instinctively, this is a very normal thing
for any my minority anywhere religious skin color. Otherwise, you
will surround yourself with as many of your people as
possible because you feel like there's more safety there. You
just will look. Think of prisons. What happens in prisons
(23:13):
is very natural thing. You walk in divided by skin color.
There's where the Mexicans are, the black people over there,
the white people over there, the Guatemalans are over there.
It's how it goes you.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Why do you do that?
Speaker 2 (23:23):
It's for protection, for safety reasons. So I get that
at all. So I understand that part. I'm not criticizing
that part. But what I don't like is black people
oftentimes can feel like they have to answer because another
black person was a scumbag, and vice versa. You'll get
these ones that feel that by osmosis. You know, my
(23:45):
great grandpa was a slave, Well, you want a slave,
you don't get to take your great grandpa's sacrifices on
for you. That doesn't mean squat. And also, this lady wrote,
it's seventy one year old black lady. She's complaining about
Jasmine Crockett. You're not Jasmine Crockett. Jasmine she's a moron.
Just because she shares your skin color color doesn't mean
(24:05):
that she's somehow associated with you. I don't associate her
with you. You don't have to answer for everybody who
shares your same skin color. I flat they reject that.
I don't operate in that way, and I don't like
it when other people operate in that way. And this
goes for beyond skin color things. Chris doesn't have to
answer for every Jew. Some Jew does something dumb, Chris doesn't. Well,
(24:27):
I'm really I'm really sorry. I'm embarrassed by that's his
freaking problem. That's not your problem. I don't have to
answer for every white dude someone does something dumb.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
I don't own it.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
I don't feel like I own and have any ownership
in it at all.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
That's his problem, not mine.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
I don't get to take on the accomplishments of other
white people because I'm white.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Blah, white people put a man on a moon.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Well, I didn't help out putting anybody.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
On the moon.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
And I also don't have to take on their sins
in there, and they're bad things. Ah, this Chuck Schumer's
on TV. He's a moron. I'm so ashamed of white people.
I am not I'm not part of him. I don't
have anything to do with him at all. And I
think you take if you're a minority of any kind, black,
whatever it may be, and whatever country listened to me,
(25:17):
and don't take on everyone else's crap just because you
have been grouped up for so long. Again, I get
the grouping, I do. I get that that happens for
protection reasons. It's very very natural. You don't have to
take on Jasmine Crockett. Jasmine Crockett's a moron all on
her own, no matter what her skin color is. Lady
(25:38):
Hans as an Oklahoma and a constituent of Rhino James Langford,
I'm writing you for advice on whether it's feasible for
someone like me to primary a.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
United States Senator. Little background.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
I'm thirty one years old, happily married to an absolute
dime for seven years now, with a beautiful new baby girl.
I've never once held political office of any kind. I
have zero political connections. I've been fascinated with politics since
I was probably fourteen and fancy myself quite a master debater.
Would Would I be wasting my time to even bother?
(26:13):
It depends on what you mean by that. This is
what I mean speaking of speaking of black people. Let's
go here, Joe Collins. You know, Joe Collins is probably
not Maxine Waters, that disgusting congresswoman from California. She is
from a black area, very very black area. And Joe
(26:37):
Collins a Republican. He's a Navy vet. I've interviewed him
several times. As a Republican. He has challenged Maxine Waters
in her area. Now he's challenging for Congress. Now He's
never won, and to be honest, he's never really come
that close to winning at all.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
He is not Now.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
Did Joe Collins way his time? It depends on how
you look at it. For him personally, he's not sitting
in Congress. He didn't remove Maxine Waters, he didn't even
ever really threaten her. She has such a stranglehold on
power there. Did Joe Collins waste his time. Well, he
didn't win, But Joe Collins is much more knowledgeable about
(27:21):
his district. He's much more knowledgeable what it takes to
run for office. He has infinitely more political connections now
than he ever had before if he wants to maybe
do something else. And I remember when Joe was telling me, Hey, Jesse,
I set up in office here. I believe this was Compton.
I think it was Compton. I set up in office here,
(27:42):
and I have black people coming in all the time.
Joe's black too, He said, I have black people come
in all the time. I'm the only Republican they've ever met.
Joe Collins losing has introduced people who had never met
a Republican before to a Republican and they found out
(28:02):
he wasn't a clan member and he didn't hate them,
he didn't want to take things from them. So did
he lose? Was it a losing effort? You have to
make that decision for yourself. If you're an unknown, you're
not going to challenge a United States senator in defeat him.
And if you go in with the mentality that you will,
that's probably setting the bar too high. You're not going
(28:25):
to be able to raise enough money, you're not going
to have the name I. D. Langford is up in
twenty twenty six. But I'm not telling you not to
do it. I lost. I ran for Congress twice and
lost exactly your story, total political unknown, no one knew
who I was, didn't have the ability to raise money.
I was just mad and I ran. I lost twice.
(28:46):
You could argue that was step one in me sitting
here talking to the entire country every single night. Was
it a loss in the end, that's your call. I
would argue, it's the greatest thing that ever happened to me.
Well that and switch into Puretalk. Puretalk. They've saved me
a fortune. I don't want to sound too much like Chris,
(29:08):
but they have saved me a fortune. A one phone
line gets expensive, but once you start the kids start
to get phones. Once you start having four phone lines,
your phone bill can be staggering. There are families that
pay over two hundred dollars over two hundred dollars a
month for mobile service. Why don't you switch to Puretalk.
(29:31):
Not only is it the patriotic cell phone company that
shares and promotes your values, you can pay way less.
You don't have to pay that much. Why don't you
have a new phone for less money? How's that sound?
Or you can keep your phone. But pure Talk makes
it easy. I want to stress that they make it easy.
Dial pound two five zero and say Jesse Kelly Pound
(29:55):
two five zero, Say Jesse Kelly.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
Switch to Pure Talk Jesse Kelly Show. It's still real
to me.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
Dammit the turns down. It is the Jesse Kelly Show
on a Tuesday. Remember, if you miss any part of
the show, you can download the whole thing on iHeart,
Spotify iTunes. We'll get to Mitch Mcconnald Chuck Grassley and
others still.
Speaker 1 (30:20):
To come on the show.
Speaker 2 (30:22):
Let's go to the voicemails real quick.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
Remember you can leave.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Us one eight seven seven three seven seven four three

Speaker 7 (30:28):
Hi Jesse, Merry Christmas. From the MMOs Mini Mittens Outlet store.
I'm giving you a call to discuss your order of
the extra extra small mittens you ordered the other day.
We have plenty of that size because not many people
have that small of hands. If you are still interested
in the in these, give me a call back. Thanks
for shopping at Mini Mittens where freedom is not free. Listen,
(30:52):
thank you.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
I hate you guys.
Speaker 4 (30:55):
You know freedom is not free.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
So let's give a quick update on the Pete hag
Seth thing. Pete hagg Seth his nomination, what's the status
of it. He's been all over Capitol Hill. He's been
knocking on every Senator's door, taking meeting after meeting after meeting.
And you remember what Pete hag Seth said earlier about
(31:21):
women in combat roles. We played it for you many
many times before he went on the Sean Ryan Show
and gave a very accurate, honest answer about women in
combat roles.
Speaker 5 (31:32):
I'm straight up just saying we should not have women
in combat roles hasn't made us more effective, hasn't made
us more lethal, has made fighting more complicated. We've all
served with women and they're great. It just our institutions
don't have to incentivize that in places where traditionally not
traditionally over human history, men in those positions are more capable.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
That was what he said. If you have a problem
with that, you're wrong, in naive, don't care about your eye?
Am well, why shouldn't I be involved?
Speaker 3 (32:03):
No?
Speaker 2 (32:03):
No, no, no no, See you have things completely twisted up.
You want access to something you explain why you should
have it. I don't have to explain to you why
you shouldn't have it. Do you explain what you should Okay, well,
we wanted to get him involved in every single part
of combat. Been a complete disaster in every possible way.
(32:26):
In every way, these integrated combat units with women in
it have been a disaster. Pregnancies, drama, lack of focus
that these are the minor problems. The dropping of the standards,
creating with creating resentment in the units themselves. It's a disaster.
Pete egg Seth has had to bounce around Capitol Hill.
(32:47):
And of course Jony Ernst is a veteran. Jony Ernst,
Senator from Iowa, ran on that loves to talk about it.
Pete had to sit down with her and here's what he.
Speaker 5 (32:57):
Says, a great meeting.
Speaker 4 (32:58):
I mean, people don't really know this. I've known Senator
Ernst for over ten years. I knew her when she
was a state senator running to be the first female
combat veteran, and we supported her in that effort and
have continued to Because you get into these meetings and
you get to listen to senators is an amazing advice
and consent process, and you hear how thoughtful, serious, and
(33:18):
substantive they are on these key issues as they pertain
to our defense department, and Jony Arns's front and center
on that. So able to have phone calls and meetings
time and time again to talk over the issues is
really really important, and the fact that she's willing to
support me through this process means a lot. And I
also want an opportunity here to clarify comments that have
been misconstrued that I somehow don't support women in the military.
(33:40):
Some of our greatest warriors are best warriors out there,
are women who serve, praise their right hand to defend
this country and love our nation, want to defend that flag,
and they do it every single day around the globe.
So I'm not presuming anything, but after President Trump asked
me to be his Secretary of Defense, should I get
the opportunity to do that?
Speaker 2 (33:59):
Look forward to beg at. Okay, First, I've heard a
lot of people say he's backpedaling there. He's not backpedaling.
He's clarifying. Now let's first of all, let's be big
boys and girls. We understand what he's doing. Pete hag
Seth is having to spend every five minutes with Joni
Ernst because he's politic and he's glad handing. He's on
the charm offensive on Capitol Hill, trying to turn those
(34:22):
nose into yeses. That's what he must do, that's what
he should do. You want to get through, you want
to push change through. You only have to survive one
nomination process. They're not going to come get you after
you're through. He's trying to kiss as many babies and
shake as many hands as he can to ensure he
gets a yes on things.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
That's one. Two. He's not backtracking.
Speaker 2 (34:44):
He's saying women have served and are serving extremely honorably
in the military.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
That is a fact. That is true.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
It has been for a long time. This is not
even a new phenomenon. You want to fascinating read, Maybe
you young ladies out there considering the military, go do
some reading on the nurses in World War Two, risking
their lives, comforting, healing, flying home with wounded vets, with
(35:13):
rounds Japanese rounds coming through the plane as you're on
a medical plane home. Women have served extremely honorably and
still continue to do so. There is a gigantic world
of difference though then serving honorably in some part of
the military and integrating a frontline combat infantry unit or
(35:39):
deployed naval unit, and those two worlds must be kept separate.
And it didn't sound to me like he was backtracking
at all. I didn't hear that he said. I didn't
say anything bad about women in the military, and he
did not. So let's make sure we're standing behind him.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
Still.
Speaker 2 (35:58):
We need to get this done. We need to get
this through. It's really important. Even if you happen to
hate Pete haeg Seth, which I don't know why you would,
but if you happen to hate Pete hagg Seth, you
still need to understand that the Senate already took a
scalp from Donald Trump. They already took Matt Gates. The
Senate shot down Matt Gates at about five minutes. If
(36:19):
you hand them another one, if you allow them to
choose your cabinet, when they support everyone of every one
of Obama's, every one of Joe Biden's, they were.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
All behind it.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
If you allow them to shoot down Trump's cabinet pick
number two, you might as well just take it all
the way from Donald Trump. And hand it over to
Mitch McConnell and say, hey, Mitch, would you please pick
Donald Trump's cabinet, because very clearly it's going.
Speaker 1 (36:46):
To be up to you.
Speaker 2 (36:47):
No, it has to be a complete offensive maneuver. Now
from now on, we must ram these picks through. If
it involves a public pressure campaign, threats of a primary,
I don't care, but it involves we must get the
picks through. You cannot give the losers and the GOP
Senate another scalp. If you do, they will take them
(37:09):
all from you. Because, believe me, this same fight is
coming for RFK, This same fight is coming for TULSEI Gabbard,
this same fight is coming for Cash Ptel. They are
dying to stop these picks. If you give them one more,
they will never stop. And speaking of the United States,
(37:30):
Senate Chuck Grassley's getting a lot of praise for something
he did yesterday. He's not going to get that same
praise on this show. I'll explain in a moment.
Speaker 1 (37:39):
Hang on,
This is a Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show. Another hour of the
Jesse Kelly Show on a magnificent Tuesday.
Speaker 1 (00:23):
And here's what we got.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
We're gonna talk, well, we're gonna have an offensive talk
in a moment about foreign lands, dictators, people, nations. Probably
gonna offend pretty much everybody. That'll always be a good time.
A little update on the Pete hagg says stuff. Mitch
McConnell suffered a fall, if you will, we'll talk about, well,
the communists in Blue States. I'm in a bag on
(00:46):
Chuck Grassley. All that and so much more still to
come on the world famous Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
But first let's begin here.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
You know, one of the reasons America is so unique historically,
it's actually very hard to find another country like it.
And I'm not doing just kind of the America raw
raw stuff that I'm prone to do from time to time.
Speaker 1 (01:10):
That's not what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (01:12):
America is very unique because America thought a revolution against
the existing power structure one and turned out better than
it was before. And it's actually that part of our
(01:34):
DNA is wonderful. I'm glad we have it. But it
is also it really really taints our worldview on things. First,
let's talk about that most revolutions, almost all revolutions, they
start at least in part that rhymed because there's a distrust, distaste,
(01:59):
hatred for, or whatever the existing power structure as happens
to be a king, a government, whatever kind it is,
and so there starts to be an appetite for revolution.
I want to cast this evil dictator off. He's bad,
he does bad things. However, revolutions are not most of
(02:21):
the time led by the sharpest people, by people who
want what's best for society, by godly people. By that's
not who generally leads revolutions. Revolutions are generally led by
the ones who have the most violent capacity. The most
capacity for violence is how I want to put that.
(02:44):
Who is the strongest, the meanest, who has the most guns,
who commands the most troops. Those are the people who
oftentimes lead revolutions. So it's easy to get revolutionary people
on board because because they're unhappy with the horrible current
government you have. However, being on board with the revolution
(03:08):
sounds really really nice, until, of course, the revolution is
over and let's hope your revolution is successful, and then
you have to figure out.
Speaker 1 (03:18):
Who's going to lead the new country.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
It's one thing to shuttle the king out the back
door and send him off to the countryside.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Or the guillotine.
Speaker 2 (03:29):
It's quite another for someone else to sit in the
throne and rule. Here in the United States of America,
we threw a king a nation off of our back.
Get out of here, England. We don't want you to
rule over us anymore. And what makes us so unique
(03:50):
on the world stage is we threw off a bad
government and brought in a better one. Or an American
the concept of revolt, rebellion against a corrupt government. It
can be very appealing for an American because we're one
(04:11):
of the very few that worked out for for most people,
not just in this current world we live in. For
most people. Historically, revolution sounds great in the beginning, and
in the end it ends up so much worse than
(04:34):
anything you had before. That is not the exception, that
is the norm. We Americans don't have that view of revolution,
that that accurate view of revolution, which we should have
because ours worked out for us. And so whenever we
hear of people anywhere fighting for freedom, we think, yeah,
(04:56):
get rid of that government.
Speaker 1 (04:57):
We did it. Look how great it worked for us?
Speaker 3 (05:00):
US?
Speaker 2 (05:01):
How many revolutions could I point to?
Speaker 1 (05:04):
How many?
Speaker 2 (05:05):
You know what? Let's start with Haiti. They had a revolution.
They had some of the most barbaric chattel slavery there
I've ever seen, harvesting sugar cane. There, slaves, the African
slaves there were living in hell. And they had a
revolution and everyone cheered for it. Even historically you read
about it and you're like, yeah, oh my gosh, screw
(05:25):
those slave owners.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Dah have a revolution.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
How are things in Haiti today? They're eating each other.
Cuba had a revolution. Let's get rid of these American
puppets in the government corrupt and they were American puppets
and they were corrupt. How did it work out for
the Cuban people in the end? Russia had a revolution
and the Tsars were bad at the end, mismanaging things, brutal, awful.
(05:54):
No fan of the Tsarist regime is certainly at the
end of it. So they had a revolution. We've had
enough of these Tsars. This is ridiculous, and the people
had every right to hate those oars. Ah, how do
you think they felt about ten years later under communist rule.
(06:15):
Revolution after revolution after revolution sounds wonderful until you get
to the end part, which is pretty important. So I
heard this today. What you're going to hear, it's for
radio purposes, so I have to explain it to you.
There's a lady over there in Syria. CNN sent one
(06:37):
of their foreign reporters over to Syria, and she's talking.
The voice you're going to hear is this young lady,
This young Syrian lady. Now, this young lady, this matters
for the purpose of our conversation, is really pretty beautiful,
beautiful young lady. Beautiful young lady wearing Western clothes, nothing risky.
(06:57):
But she's got a little little thing, some kind of
bow thing in her hair, something my wife would wear.
She's got a sweater sweatshirt on of some kind. And
like I said, beautiful young lady looks speed at thirties,
maybe forty years old. And in Syria, they just got
rid of a very very very bad man Assad. Him
(07:18):
and his father spent half a century butchering the people
in Syria. She wanted to get rid of him. And
she goes to the camera talks to CNN. Here's what
she said.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
You know, some people are concerned that a lot of
the rebels are Islamists, they are from organizations that have
extremist ties.
Speaker 3 (07:38):
Do you worry about for me?
Speaker 2 (07:40):
After what I have witnessed yesterday and what.
Speaker 5 (07:43):
Happened in Sidnaya prison, this is absolutely fine.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Let's have a billions, Let's have this Islamic whatever over
going out.
Speaker 1 (07:53):
This is more.
Speaker 2 (07:55):
This is more peaceful than what the regime and the
acid regime was doing to our mother, to our daughters, to.
Speaker 1 (08:02):
Our people here in Syria. Anything that would come after
the asadgi would be.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
More more, more, more humanic, or more humane.
Speaker 1 (08:15):
You can say this is okay.
Speaker 2 (08:18):
So she's obviously stumbling over the words a little bit there,
but to paraphrase, she's the reporter essentially asked her, so
isis al Kada they're taking over Syria? There are concerns
about that. You beautiful, young lady, no hijab on, nice
little bow when you're here, very pretty? What do you
think about that?
Speaker 6 (08:35):
Oh?
Speaker 2 (08:35):
Nothing could be worse than a sod This is that. Look,
after what these people have done, we're totally on board
bring in those al Qaeda types, those Islamic types, young lady.
I don't I don't think you've spent five minutes thinking
(08:56):
about what's coming for you now. And that's the sad
truth about revolution. And this is a cautionary tale for
all of us, because I know that revolutionary fervor has
welled up in you from time to time. Given the
corruption of our government recently and things like that, that
young lady probably has every good reason in the world
(09:19):
to hate assad hate his regime. Her own mother may
have been tortured to death. She has every reason in
the world to crave revolution, and so very obviously she
got involved in whatever way she did, and helped get
her support behind that revolution, and revolution she got in
a sod is gone. In a year from now, that
(09:43):
young lady's life is going to be hell. If she's
even still alive. A year from now, in fact, appearing
on television without any coverings at all, with makeup on
her face, may they have already doomed that young lady
to death. Isis al Qaeda they watch CNN two, They
(10:07):
may already have her name and her face written down.
She may not last a month. I brought this up
for a couple different reasons, because we have to have
an offensive talk about dictatorships and revolutions, But just to
put a little bow on this particular portion of it,
be careful, whether it's in your country or abroad. Be
(10:30):
careful celebrating revolutions, as evil as so many regimes are,
and I acknowledge they are. In Assad most definitely was
be very very very careful supporting a revolution. Ninety nine
point nine percent of the time you come out the
back end worse than you were before. Remember that.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
So let's talk dictatorships.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
Before we do that, let's talk about chalk so we
can think clearly about it. Do you want to see
clearly enough to know that your house has a rat problem?
Do you want to be man enough to reject all
past control attempts by outsiders so you can handle the
professional job of rat killing all to yourself. Well, you're
(11:17):
gonna need testosterone for that, fellas, And if you're drinking estrogen,
which you are every day, you're not gonna have the.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
T levels necessary.
Speaker 2 (11:23):
But chalk can get those tea levels jacked up to
the point you can take on rats. Here's what you
need to do. You need to focus on natural herbal supplements.

Speaker 2 (11:57):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Tuesday. And yeah,
this young lady in Syria, beautiful young lady wearing a
nice pretty bow in her hair, sweatshirt on makeup.
Speaker 1 (12:10):
On she's telling CNN.
Speaker 2 (12:13):
She is thrilled they had a revolution and a sod
is gone.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
This is absolutely amazing. After all of the years we
are live on the international TV. This is this is amazing,
This is unspeakable.
Speaker 2 (12:27):
This is us after fifty years of darkness.
Speaker 4 (12:30):
This is us after fifty years of death.
Speaker 1 (12:33):
This is absolutely amazing.
Speaker 2 (12:37):
Isis just took over, young lady. You are about to
be covered, potentially killed for what you just said on
national television. But you are about to be covered and
shipped off like a piece of livestock to somebody.
Speaker 1 (12:55):
And so let's talk.
Speaker 2 (12:57):
We have seen time after time after time, what is
it work out this way? So often we've seen, just
in recent memory, we don't even have to go that deep. Historically,
we've seen Saddam Hussein go down, Iraq turns into a
butcher factory. We've seen Gaddafi go down in Libya. Not
long after Gaddafi went down, you realize they had open
(13:18):
slave markets. That's how bad Libya fell. When I say
open slave markets, I have pictures and video of them.
In fact, you can probably find them online where you
have people just exactly what you'd picture, people in chains
on stage, people are bidding on their slaves. In Libya,
a sad, a nightmare of a human being. Torture, death,
(13:41):
horrible just went down in Syria. Be very careful what
you wish for. And here's the truth. Being kind as
a leader. Being kind as a leader is a gift
that is given to you, and it only comes in
(14:03):
the form of having a good population that shares a culture. Period,
end of story. If you find yourself as a leader,
whether you're a president, a king, a dictator, whatever you are,
if you are in charge of a population and you
(14:24):
are able to be kind and good, it is good.
I want you to be that. You should aspire to
be that. But it is because you have a cohesive culture.
You have a cohesive, peaceful society of good people. Other
people in charge of other parts of the world. They
(14:44):
do not have the luxury of kindness. And I am
not at all endorsing the barbaric things that dictators used
to do and continue to do in this world. I am, however,
saying this. If you think you're going to step into
a palace in Iraq and take over that country and
(15:06):
rule over the various tribes and Islamic sects and the
Baptists and the other If you think you're going to
step into the fifty different cultures who all want to
tear each other's eyes out, and you are going to
lead that country with kindness towards peace, you have lost
your ever loving mind. If you think you're going to
(15:26):
step into Syria with the Kurds, You've got Isis, You've
got al Kaida, al Kada's fighting, Isis al Kada's joining
with Isis. You have Turkey on the border. They're against you,
You're there for you. Russia is kind of for you.
They like your port, but they might not be. If
you think you're going to lead a society like that
with kindness, with empathy, If you think you're going to
(15:46):
lead people like that the right way. You've got another
thing coming. What I'm trying to say is there are
parts of the world, at various parts in history, who
can only and will only be led by vicious men.
And frankly, if you look at the course of human history,
it's hard to argue against what I just said. Kindness
(16:11):
in leadership is a luxury.
Speaker 1 (16:15):
You know.
Speaker 2 (16:16):
I walk in the studio here. I got Jewish producer,
Cris producer Corey here, work here in the studio. I
walk in the studio here. I don't yell and scream
unless I'm yelling at myself for about some idiot.
Speaker 1 (16:27):
But I certainly would never yell at them.
Speaker 2 (16:29):
Don't have to don't have to tell them to show
up to work on time, don't have to tell them
to get their stuff done. I don't have to threaten this,
I'll fire you tomorrow. Why is that? Is that because
I'm so nice? No, I'm a total jerk. I don't
have to. I have the luxury of walking in here
and being kind. If I walked in here and it
was two eighteen year old morons, they can't dress right,
(16:50):
they don't get to work done, don't show up to
work on time to screwing this up, to screwing that up,
I would have to come in here throwing things, screaming
and yelling to try to get people squared away the
way that the way they need to be. I am
given the gift of being able to be kind at
work because I have two very capable people who handle
things completely on their own. If you are God forbid
(17:15):
ever put in a leadership situation and the people underneath
you are a disaster, Oh, I understand. You may want
to lead with kindness and make everything nice. You better
put that stuff away and you better lead with some force,
because it's the only way to handle situations like that.
(17:36):
We don't like to imagine that parts of the globe
have to be led by a monster like as Sod
he dropped chemical weapons on his own citizens. We look
at things like that and we're mortified, and we say
to ourselves that guy is a demon. He should never
be in charge of anything. Well, maybe it's going to
(17:56):
take a guy like that to hold a disaster like
Syria together. And if you remove a guy like that,
maybe you're about to find out why it takes a
guy like that to hold Syria together. Some people, some cultures.
Some countries are made to be ruled and that sucks,
(18:18):
but that's the truth. Anyway, Let's do some emails before
we move on and do other things.
Speaker 1 (18:23):
I want to. Oh, let's do one right here.

Speaker 3 (20:01):
Yes, it's a Ben from California. Hey, you were talking
about her Man Cortes the other day and there's a
great book called Conquistador Voices. It's no fluff. It's like
the journals from the guys that traveled with them, talks
of Columbus Cortes, Toto. It's a really good book. So
there you go.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
Conquista Door Voices. I have never read this book before.
One more time on the air. That's a three banger.
So you don't have to email me and ask me
the name of the book. Conquista Door Voices.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
You know what.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
Take it from Ben himself. Conquista Door Voices the name
of the book. Anyway, I might have to pick that up.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
Jesse.
Speaker 2 (20:40):
My shame is I guess she wants her name read.
The subject of this one is you are so refreshing.
Speaker 1 (20:46):
I am refreshing, Chris.
Speaker 2 (20:47):
What I'm like a cold beverage with lots of fresh ice, Chris. Anyway,
my name is Michelle Hardaway and I'm a seventy one
year old black lady from Rochester, New York. I listened
to podcasts all night long. I was listening to Tucker
Carlson one night when you were on From Then I
became a listener of your show. Start out by saying,
I pray for your family at the loss of your father.
(21:10):
Glad to hear your mother as a church family that
came aside along her at her loss. This is what
churches are supposed to do.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Yes, it is.
Speaker 2 (21:17):
This morning I woke up to you talking about Jasmine Crockett.
You are right, she's a clown. I don't find her
amusing at all. She's in the same camp as Joy Reid,
Maxine Waters, Whoopy Goldberg. They make me ashamed, As my
grandmother used to tell us when we were growing up.
They are my color, but they're not my kind Sadly,
(21:37):
they get all the airtime in the media. Carol Swain's
Gonda Lisa Rice don't get much play on the air.
They're accomplished black women who are much better at role models.
I keep you with my prayers too. I'm sure you've
been attacked for speaking the truth. Keep the faith because
your reward is not on this side of heaven as
much as it will be on the other side. God
bless Okay, So I wanted to read this for a
(21:59):
writing for reasons. One, thank you, Michelle, I appreciate it.
But two, there is something that I, honestly I probably
should say. Every black person I think I've ever known
in my life goes through that I don't like, and
I've tried to talk them out of I don't like
it at all, a minority to be a minority in
(22:22):
a country. If you are an extreme minority. You know,
let's take it to Syria right now. If you were
a Christian in Syria or a Jew, although I don't
think there are any you people left in Syria, Chris,
it's been a dangerous but we'll make it. A Christian Okay,
you're a Christian in Syria. The Jews are all gone.
You're a Christian in Syria, you're an extreme minority right now. Now,
(22:43):
I acknowledge that that is a unique experience because everyone doesn't.
Speaker 1 (22:49):
Look like you.
Speaker 2 (22:50):
The culture is not yours, the culture of the government
is not yours. Instinctively, this is a very normal thing
for any my minority anywhere religious skin color. Otherwise, you
will surround yourself with as many of your people as
possible because you feel like there's more safety there. You
just will look. Think of prisons. What happens in prisons
(23:13):
is very natural thing. You walk in divided by skin color.
There's where the Mexicans are, the black people over there,
the white people over there, the Guatemalans are over there.
It's how it goes you.
Speaker 1 (23:23):
Why do you do that?
Speaker 2 (23:23):
It's for protection, for safety reasons. So I get that
at all. So I understand that part. I'm not criticizing
that part. But what I don't like is black people
oftentimes can feel like they have to answer because another
black person was a scumbag, and vice versa. You'll get
these ones that feel that by osmosis. You know, my
(23:45):
great grandpa was a slave, Well, you want a slave,
you don't get to take your great grandpa's sacrifices on
for you. That doesn't mean squat. And also, this lady wrote,
it's seventy one year old black lady. She's complaining about
Jasmine Crockett. You're not Jasmine Crockett. Jasmine she's a moron.
Just because she shares your skin color color doesn't mean
(24:05):
that she's somehow associated with you. I don't associate her
with you. You don't have to answer for everybody who
shares your same skin color. I flat they reject that.
I don't operate in that way, and I don't like
it when other people operate in that way. And this
goes for beyond skin color things. Chris doesn't have to
answer for every Jew. Some Jew does something dumb, Chris doesn't. Well,
(24:27):
I'm really I'm really sorry. I'm embarrassed by that's his
freaking problem. That's not your problem. I don't have to
answer for every white dude someone does something dumb.
Speaker 1 (24:36):
I don't own it.
Speaker 2 (24:37):
I don't feel like I own and have any ownership
in it at all.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
That's his problem, not mine.
Speaker 2 (24:43):
I don't get to take on the accomplishments of other
white people because I'm white.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Blah, white people put a man on a moon.
Speaker 2 (24:51):
Well, I didn't help out putting anybody.
Speaker 1 (24:53):
On the moon.
Speaker 2 (24:55):
And I also don't have to take on their sins
in there, and they're bad things. Ah, this Chuck Schumer's
on TV. He's a moron. I'm so ashamed of white people.
I am not I'm not part of him. I don't
have anything to do with him at all. And I
think you take if you're a minority of any kind, black,
whatever it may be, and whatever country listened to me,
(25:17):
and don't take on everyone else's crap just because you
have been grouped up for so long. Again, I get
the grouping, I do. I get that that happens for
protection reasons. It's very very natural. You don't have to
take on Jasmine Crockett. Jasmine Crockett's a moron all on
her own, no matter what her skin color is. Lady
(25:38):
Hans as an Oklahoma and a constituent of Rhino James Langford,
I'm writing you for advice on whether it's feasible for
someone like me to primary a.
Speaker 1 (25:48):
United States Senator. Little background.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
I'm thirty one years old, happily married to an absolute
dime for seven years now, with a beautiful new baby girl.
I've never once held political office of any kind. I
have zero political connections. I've been fascinated with politics since
I was probably fourteen and fancy myself quite a master debater.
Would Would I be wasting my time to even bother?
(26:13):
It depends on what you mean by that. This is
what I mean speaking of speaking of black people. Let's
go here, Joe Collins. You know, Joe Collins is probably
not Maxine Waters, that disgusting congresswoman from California. She is
from a black area, very very black area. And Joe
(26:37):
Collins a Republican. He's a Navy vet. I've interviewed him
several times. As a Republican. He has challenged Maxine Waters
in her area. Now he's challenging for Congress. Now He's
never won, and to be honest, he's never really come
that close to winning at all.
Speaker 1 (26:56):
He is not Now.
Speaker 2 (26:58):
Did Joe Collins way his time? It depends on how
you look at it. For him personally, he's not sitting
in Congress. He didn't remove Maxine Waters, he didn't even
ever really threaten her. She has such a stranglehold on
power there. Did Joe Collins waste his time. Well, he
didn't win, But Joe Collins is much more knowledgeable about
(27:21):
his district. He's much more knowledgeable what it takes to
run for office. He has infinitely more political connections now
than he ever had before if he wants to maybe
do something else. And I remember when Joe was telling me, Hey, Jesse,
I set up in office here. I believe this was Compton.
I think it was Compton. I set up in office here,
(27:42):
and I have black people coming in all the time.
Joe's black too, He said, I have black people come
in all the time. I'm the only Republican they've ever met.
Joe Collins losing has introduced people who had never met
a Republican before to a Republican and they found out
(28:02):
he wasn't a clan member and he didn't hate them,
he didn't want to take things from them. So did
he lose? Was it a losing effort? You have to
make that decision for yourself. If you're an unknown, you're
not going to challenge a United States senator in defeat him.
And if you go in with the mentality that you will,
that's probably setting the bar too high. You're not going
(28:25):
to be able to raise enough money, you're not going
to have the name I. D. Langford is up in
twenty twenty six. But I'm not telling you not to
do it. I lost. I ran for Congress twice and
lost exactly your story, total political unknown, no one knew
who I was, didn't have the ability to raise money.
I was just mad and I ran. I lost twice.
(28:46):
You could argue that was step one in me sitting
here talking to the entire country every single night. Was
it a loss in the end, that's your call. I
would argue, it's the greatest thing that ever happened to me.
Well that and switch into Puretalk. Puretalk. They've saved me
a fortune. I don't want to sound too much like Chris,
(29:08):
but they have saved me a fortune. A one phone
line gets expensive, but once you start the kids start
to get phones. Once you start having four phone lines,
your phone bill can be staggering. There are families that
pay over two hundred dollars over two hundred dollars a
month for mobile service. Why don't you switch to Puretalk.
(29:31):
Not only is it the patriotic cell phone company that
shares and promotes your values, you can pay way less.
You don't have to pay that much. Why don't you
have a new phone for less money? How's that sound?
Or you can keep your phone. But pure Talk makes
it easy. I want to stress that they make it easy.
Dial pound two five zero and say Jesse Kelly Pound
(29:55):
two five zero, Say Jesse Kelly.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
Switch to Pure Talk Jesse Kelly Show. It's still real
to me.
Speaker 2 (30:03):
Dammit the turns down. It is the Jesse Kelly Show
on a Tuesday. Remember, if you miss any part of
the show, you can download the whole thing on iHeart,
Spotify iTunes. We'll get to Mitch Mcconnald Chuck Grassley and
others still.
Speaker 1 (30:20):

Speaker 2 (30:22):
Let's go to the voicemails real quick.
Speaker 1 (30:23):
Remember you can leave.
Speaker 2 (30:24):
Us one eight seven seven three seven seven four three
seven three.
Speaker 7 (30:28):
Hi Jesse, Merry Christmas. From the MMOs Mini Mittens Outlet store.
I'm giving you a call to discuss your order of
the extra extra small mittens you ordered the other day.
We have plenty of that size because not many people
have that small of hands. If you are still interested
in the in these, give me a call back. Thanks
for shopping at Mini Mittens where freedom is not free. Listen,
(30:52):
thank you.
Speaker 1 (30:54):
I hate you guys.
Speaker 4 (30:55):
You know freedom is not free.
Speaker 2 (30:58):
So let's give a quick update on the Pete hag
Seth thing. Pete hagg Seth his nomination, what's the status
of it. He's been all over Capitol Hill. He's been
knocking on every Senator's door, taking meeting after meeting after meeting.
And you remember what Pete hag Seth said earlier about
(31:21):
women in combat roles. We played it for you many
many times before he went on the Sean Ryan Show
and gave a very accurate, honest answer about women in
combat roles.
Speaker 5 (31:32):
I'm straight up just saying we should not have women
in combat roles hasn't made us more effective, hasn't made
us more lethal, has made fighting more complicated. We've all
served with women and they're great. It just our institutions
don't have to incentivize that in places where traditionally not
traditionally over human history, men in those positions are more capable.
Speaker 2 (31:55):
That was what he said. If you have a problem
with that, you're wrong, in naive, don't care about your eye?
Am well, why shouldn't I be involved?
Speaker 3 (32:03):
No?
Speaker 2 (32:03):
No, no, no no, See you have things completely twisted up.
You want access to something you explain why you should
have it. I don't have to explain to you why
you shouldn't have it. Do you explain what you should Okay, well,
we wanted to get him involved in every single part
of combat. Been a complete disaster in every possible way.
(32:26):
In every way, these integrated combat units with women in
it have been a disaster. Pregnancies, drama, lack of focus
that these are the minor problems. The dropping of the standards,
creating with creating resentment in the units themselves. It's a disaster.
Pete egg Seth has had to bounce around Capitol Hill.
(32:47):
And of course Jony Ernst is a veteran. Jony Ernst,
Senator from Iowa, ran on that loves to talk about it.
Pete had to sit down with her and here's what he.
Speaker 5 (32:57):
Says, a great meeting.
Speaker 4 (32:58):
I mean, people don't really know this. I've known Senator
Ernst for over ten years. I knew her when she
was a state senator running to be the first female
combat veteran, and we supported her in that effort and
have continued to Because you get into these meetings and
you get to listen to senators is an amazing advice
and consent process, and you hear how thoughtful, serious, and
(33:18):
substantive they are on these key issues as they pertain
to our defense department, and Jony Arns's front and center
on that. So able to have phone calls and meetings
time and time again to talk over the issues is
really really important, and the fact that she's willing to
support me through this process means a lot. And I
also want an opportunity here to clarify comments that have
been misconstrued that I somehow don't support women in the military.
(33:40):
Some of our greatest warriors are best warriors out there,
are women who serve, praise their right hand to defend
this country and love our nation, want to defend that flag,
and they do it every single day around the globe.
So I'm not presuming anything, but after President Trump asked
me to be his Secretary of Defense, should I get
the opportunity to do that?
Speaker 2 (33:59):
Look forward to beg at. Okay, First, I've heard a
lot of people say he's backpedaling there. He's not backpedaling.
He's clarifying. Now let's first of all, let's be big
boys and girls. We understand what he's doing. Pete hag
Seth is having to spend every five minutes with Joni
Ernst because he's politic and he's glad handing. He's on
the charm offensive on Capitol Hill, trying to turn those
(34:22):
nose into yeses. That's what he must do, that's what
he should do. You want to get through, you want
to push change through. You only have to survive one
nomination process. They're not going to come get you after
you're through. He's trying to kiss as many babies and
shake as many hands as he can to ensure he
gets a yes on things.
Speaker 1 (34:40):
That's one. Two. He's not backtracking.
Speaker 2 (34:44):
He's saying women have served and are serving extremely honorably
in the military.
Speaker 1 (34:50):
That is a fact. That is true.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
It has been for a long time. This is not
even a new phenomenon. You want to fascinating read, Maybe
you young ladies out there considering the military, go do
some reading on the nurses in World War Two, risking
their lives, comforting, healing, flying home with wounded vets, with
(35:13):
rounds Japanese rounds coming through the plane as you're on
a medical plane home. Women have served extremely honorably and
still continue to do so. There is a gigantic world
of difference though then serving honorably in some part of
the military and integrating a frontline combat infantry unit or
(35:39):
deployed naval unit, and those two worlds must be kept separate.
And it didn't sound to me like he was backtracking
at all. I didn't hear that he said. I didn't
say anything bad about women in the military, and he
did not. So let's make sure we're standing behind him.
Speaker 1 (35:57):
Still.
Speaker 2 (35:58):
We need to get this done. We need to get
this through. It's really important. Even if you happen to
hate Pete haeg Seth, which I don't know why you would,
but if you happen to hate Pete hagg Seth, you
still need to understand that the Senate already took a
scalp from Donald Trump. They already took Matt Gates. The
Senate shot down Matt Gates at about five minutes. If
(36:19):
you hand them another one, if you allow them to
choose your cabinet, when they support everyone of every one
of Obama's, every one of Joe Biden's, they were.
Speaker 1 (36:31):
All behind it.
Speaker 2 (36:32):
If you allow them to shoot down Trump's cabinet pick
number two, you might as well just take it all
the way from Donald Trump. And hand it over to
Mitch McConnell and say, hey, Mitch, would you please pick
Donald Trump's cabinet, because very clearly it's going.
Speaker 1 (36:46):
To be up to you.
Speaker 2 (36:47):
No, it has to be a complete offensive maneuver. Now
from now on, we must ram these picks through. If
it involves a public pressure campaign, threats of a primary,
I don't care, but it involves we must get the
picks through. You cannot give the losers and the GOP
Senate another scalp. If you do, they will take them
(37:09):
all from you. Because, believe me, this same fight is
coming for RFK, This same fight is coming for TULSEI Gabbard,
this same fight is coming for Cash Ptel. They are
dying to stop these picks. If you give them one more,
they will never stop. And speaking of the United States,
(37:30):
Senate Chuck Grassley's getting a lot of praise for something
he did yesterday. He's not going to get that same
praise on this show. I'll explain in a moment.
Speaker 1 (37:39):
Hang on,
