Speaker 1 (00:10):
This is a Jesse Kelly show. It is the Jesse
Kelly Show. Another hour of the Jesse Kelly Show on
a wonderful, wonderful Tuesday. I need to remind you that
about halfway through this hour, Attorney General of Missouri Andrew
Bailey is coming on. He's suing China. How does that work?
(00:31):
I hate to ask stupid questions. I'm gonna ask him,
how do you get any money from that? If China
doesn't agree? So I'll ask the ag that in a
little bit a little programming note, we were gonna have
Cartel expert Brandon Darby on halfway through next hour. We're
gonna have him at the start of next hour. What
do you call that? In radio, Chris, Top of the Hour,
(00:51):
Top top of the hour, Top of the hour. We're
gonna have Brandon Darby on. What a journalist I am?
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Oh my god, it's journalist Jesse.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
But for now, let's make fun of democrats before we
do some emails and talk about social security and other things.
So the American people are waking up every day and
they're getting headlines that are eye popping about government corruption, fraud, waste,
and well, this was Caroline Levin.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
President Trump has directed Elon Musk in the DOGE team
to identify fraud at the Social Security Administration. They haven't
dug into the books yet, but they suspect that there
are tens of millions of deceased people who are receiving
fraudulent Social Security payments. And so their goal and going
into the Social Security Administration is to identify three things.
(01:40):
Number one, to identify duplicate payments and to end them.
Number two, to identify payments that are going to deceased
people who are no longer living and should no longer
be receiving that money. And number three, to protect the
integrity of this system for hardworking Americans who have been
paying into their entire lives.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Who's against that? I'm looking at this headline, You're what
is politics, especially when it comes to a representative republic,
a constitutional republic like we have here, What is it?
If you really want political power, you generally have to
be on the side of the majority of the public.
(02:22):
And ideally you want to be on the side of
the large majority of the public. Like Trump's really masterful
with this the men and women's sports thing. Why didn't
Trump push that further? Like as far as you would
probably take that with all the training madness, because you
pull tests just that men and women's sports. It's eighty twenty.
(02:47):
The American people despise it. Even a majority of Democrats
hate it. Now, if you're a Democrat, you're more likely well,
I mean, yeah, he's a tranny, and it's okay, I
mean you can change that. But even then, you don't
want them beating up women in sports. Even then you'll
draw a line. Okay, well, at least don't beat up
the fifth grade girl. Right, Trump takes that stance. No,
(03:10):
men and women's sports, it's just the art to politics,
the are to being popular. Here's a headline from the
Epic Times. Database lists twelve million people older than one
point twenty as eligible for Social Security. Twelve million people
who are dead are eligible for Social Security. Here's a
(03:31):
headline musks Doge discovers four point seven trillion with the
t as in tom tango whatever tangerine. Four point seven
trillion vanished in untraceable payments. Social Security had resigns after
(03:53):
what might be the biggest fraud in US history. Now,
these are not Republican issues, Democrat issues, independent issues. Citizens
who reside in the United States of America eighty twenty.
They want government corruption cleaned out. Now. That brings us
to the current state of the Democrat Party. Senator Ed
(04:15):
Markey at a rally to protest all this Doe stuff,
oh sex marriage started here. Revolution against some war art
now started here. The revolution against Donald Trump an Elon
must it starts here.
Speaker 4 (04:36):
The revolution in Vietnams against Vietnams starting here, and the
revolution against Elon and Trump starts here. Revolution against cleaning
up government corruption.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
And I saw this. This is the Pollinteer CEO Alex
Karp he said this.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
I just view this as well, let's watch the Democratic
Party commit suicide. And like I've been a Democrat most
of my life, I would still I kind of few
myself as outside it, but I don't like watching the
Democrats just commit suicide. And what I see is most
of the country doesn't really at this point given the
fraud wasting abuse we know, is there ninety percent of
(05:20):
the countries like get rid of that fraud wasting abuse.
And I just view this as yet another example of
the progressive left boxing themselves in into a suicide dance.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
That's such an outstanding way to put It's why I
wanted to play it for you, boxing themselves into a
suicide dance. Here's a nypopping number for you. Forty five
percent of Democrats want their party to shift to the middle.
But the problem is that forty five percent they don't
(05:54):
run the party. The party, I say, has been handed
over to the radical Marxist, the cultural Marxists. But that
may not be entirely fair, because these are animals, they're revolutionaries.
They're used to infiltrating things and infecting them and conquering institutions.
So maybe it wasn't as much the old guard of
(06:16):
the Democrat Party handed it over to the new generation
of nutjobs. Maybe it's not as much that as the
new generation of nutjobs simply infiltrated it, worked their way
through it like the revolutionaries they are, and now they
run it. But whatever the reason, they now run it.
And it's not like I want them to improve. It's
(06:37):
like I'm at the zoo watching monkeys throw poop at
each other. I'm amazed that they can't.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
I'm amazed at how locked into their religious beliefs they are.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
They simply cannot let them go. This constant revolution stuff,
constant you must oppose everything Donald Trump does. One of
the greatest benefits politically Donald Trump has had and his
remarkable run in politics, is he can count on Democrats
(07:11):
vocally opposing everything. It doesn't matter what he does. Trump
could pick up an adorable puppy and snuggle it and
kiss it on television, and that afternoon it would be
Democrat after democrat after democrat vocally coming out against puppies.
It makes you look horrible when you don't know when
(07:32):
to shut up. And that's probably what gets me the
most is it's not like I expect them to come
out and endorse anything Elon Musk is doing or Trump
is doing. I'm not naive. I know how politics work.
You know how politics works. I don't expect Ed Markey
to give a news conference saying, well, you know, I
didn't vote for Donald Trump, but I gotta tell you,
I'm a big fan of cleaning out this corruption, and
(07:52):
I think he's doing a really good job. I'm not
naive that's not gonna happen. But you don't have to
say anything. You don't have to vocal oppose it.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
You don't have to stand in the streets and call
for revolution because they're finding corruption and waste. It's the
biggest political gimme, one of the biggest political gimmes I've
ever seen in my life. All you say right now,
if you're a Democrat is I can't stand Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
I think he's doing a terrible job. We need to
get Democrats back in charge. I am glad we're cleaning
out some of this fraud and abuse, though, because the taxpayer,
the American citizen, deserves better. That's all you have to say.
That's the easiest layup in the world. But they can't
do it. I think it was my buddy Arn McIntyre
who came up with the term the uh the suicidal
(08:42):
death spiral. I think he called it where you're each
one has to out radicalize the one before him, and
then the next one has to outradicalize then the next one.
I no, no, I hate Trump even more than you do. No,
I hate him even more. I hate him even more.
And without a buddy there to keep it all in check,
(09:02):
they're completely losing it. James Carvel, James.
Speaker 6 (09:05):
Carve, that longtime political strategist, came out and said, I
dedicated to the best years of my life to this
beeping party, only to see it taken over by a
bunch of stupid mother I can't well, I really can't
quote much of James Covill here on this family show.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
But yeah, I'll just leave it at that. You get
the gist of what he's saying. The older Democrats I
told you about this, The older Democrats who built the
coalition that helped them in power for so long, are
watching these nutballs give it all back, and I love it.
It's hilarious. Let's do some emails before we talk about
(09:41):
Fort Knox. Let's get your pain right though. Let's get
the pain out of your life, that daily grinding pain
that keeps you up at night, that keeps you from
getting out of bed in the morning, that keeps you
from golfing, going for a walk, playing pickleball. What don't
you do that you used to do before your hands
(10:03):
started hurting? Your back, your shoulder, your neck's always bothering you.
Let Relief Factor get that pain out of your life.
One hundred percent drug free. It's a supplement. It will
build up in your body over time. The longer you
take it, the better it works. That's why they sell
three week quick starts of it nineteen dollars and ninety
(10:25):
five cents. You take it every single day. Stop masking
that pain. Stop avoiding pickleball. Pickleball is a blast. I'll
tell you about that in a second. Start embracing relief Factor.
Relief Factor dot com or give them a call one
eight hundred, do the number four relief. I might be retiring. Next.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
You're listening to the ourcle you love this one. It's
a scream baby, the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show. On a Tuesday at
Amazing Tuesday. A member Attorney General of Missouri joins us
about ten minutes or now, I want to know, how
do you sue China? Maybe we should sue China. Chris,
you have to know some lawyers. I don't know what
for whatever they hate me already. Anyway, we can sue China. Anyway,
we'll discuss that with the age of Missouri. Brandon Darby,
(11:18):
if that, If that cartel talk interested you in the
beginning of the show, you'll want to hang around. Brandon
Darby's gonna join us about forty five minutes from now.
I'm way behind on emails, though Jesse Trump has reduced
ten thousand illegals to day to three hundred and ninety
two a day. Why is there still three hundred and
ninety two if they can count that. If people are
(11:39):
getting frustrated with the pace of deportation, and people are
starting to call out Trump for it, why is it
slowing down? It shouldn't be slowing down. Why is it
slowing down? Okay, so let me explain it this way
best I can. Let's say I'm fat, and in fact,
(12:02):
I am fat right now. But let's say I'm fat.
And here's the thing about me. I've had periods of
time in my life where I've been in good shape
and then I'll get fat, and then I'll get myself
back in shape and I'll get fat. It's terrible. Don't
be like that, don't be like me. But I need
to lose some weight now. I brought up pickleball before
I went into the break. I can play pickleball. I've started.
(12:26):
I've played one game of pickleball, actually one game. I
won one pretty easily, thinking I might end up going professional,
but that's another story entirely. So, exercise is one of
the things that helped me get back in better shape
and lose some weight. Soda pop depending on which part
of the country you're in That that's the one for me,
(12:49):
that's easy. That is five pounds for me. Did you
know that I've done this enough times in my life
where I get fat get back in shape. That's soda.
It's five pounds. Meaning if I drink a water with
my meal instead of that mountain dew or that coke
or something like that, five pounds. That's a difference, and
it's almost it's almost on the button five pounds and
(13:13):
it's directly off my stomach. Five pounds. Now let's say
I'm fifty pounds overweight. Well, it's really not that difficult
for me. For me. Everyone has their vices and things
they love more. But for me, cutting out soda is
actually fairly easy. And I haven't had anything while it's
just not a big deal. I'm not big on that.
(13:33):
I'd rather frankly have water. I feel better. Cutting out
soda is not easy, So boom, I need to lose
fifty five of it's gone nice. That was the easy part.
Now I got forty five more to lose. That's a
lot of pickleball. Start looking at my diet. Hmm, I
(13:54):
think maybe the tacos are going to have to get
phased out. Maybe the cheese steaks, the pizza. We have
a great Detroit style pizza place here, love you Jets.
Jets is probably going to have to go. Now Can
I do these things? Can I cut out the tacos?
Can I cut out the cheese steaks? Can I cut
(14:15):
out the pizza? Maybe? I don't even want to say yes. Maybe,
but I promise you this. It won't be easy. Not
for me. That's how I eat. Maybe you don't eat
that way and it would be easy for you. The
soda was the low hanging fruit, the easy part for me.
But now that we got the easy part done, the
(14:37):
hard part has to begin where the cheese steaks have
to go. In the United States of America, the Biden
administration brought in twenty million people on purpose. Large numbers
of those people were monsters, real legitimate monsters, where countries
emptied their prisons of the worst people they had and
(14:59):
put them in the the United States of America. Those people,
oftentimes under the Biden administration, they were given labels where
they didn't deport them, they caught them and released them,
but even still they put a marker on them of hey,
this guy, uh got quite a record down in old Guatemala.
(15:22):
Just want to let you know he's down there in
San Antonio. Just the heads up. He's in this neighborhood.
The worst of the worst of the worst, the ones
who needed to be removed immediately we knew where they were.
That was the easy part, the first few weeks, what
we saw, that was the easy part. Now, as a country,
(15:47):
and this may be something that will affect you, affect me.
Now it's time for the cheese steaks. It's time for
the pizza. It's time for that cheeseburger. It's time. Now
that we got rid of the easy stuff, now it's
time to get rid of the stuff that will be hard.
It will be more difficult. Here's the truth of it.
(16:11):
I was actually joking with Chris and Corey before the show,
but it's one hundred percent true. Do you ever get
food delivered? We get food delivered. You know, I've told
you this before. I try to get food for the fellas.
Once a day we get food delivered. So it's five
days a week we get food delivered.
Speaker 7 (16:25):
Here.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
We don't have a restaurant right next door. We got
someone bring it to us. We're working, we get food delivered.
Food delivery times have fellas doubled, triple. Chris says, more tripled.
That's probably not unreasonable tripled. Now look at me whining
about this. This is a small price to pay to
save a country. I'm not complaining. I'm pointing out already
(16:48):
today we have a taco joint, probably the closest joint
to us. Today. We got tacos. We get them every time,
ten minutes, fifteen minutes about max today about forty five
minutes for them to get here. Why Trump deported all
the illegals. The door dash, Uber eats regular, any kind
(17:08):
of delivery driver, favor, whatever app you happen to use.
They are famously some of the easiest jobs for illegals
to get. They just are. It's something I've known. I've
talked about it on the show forever. It's a normal profession,
a safe profession, easy for an illegal to get into it. So, look,
this is a minor thing, But are you ready for
(17:31):
more expensive produce? Local hotel actually a hotel by your mother.
You're gonna leave town. You go visit your mother every
few months. You're gonna leave town. You're gonna stay at
the best Western nearby Best Western used to be sixty
five bucks a night. You show up at the Best
Western to check in, it's seventy five bucks a night.
You talk to the manager about it, You follow it down.
(17:52):
The manager had to let go of some of the
housekeeping staff. Wees had to go up, wages went up,
room prices went up. This is not a complaint illegal immigration.
Illegal immigrants themselves have for decades been ingraining themselves into
(18:15):
our society in a million different ways. I warned you
a thousand times, even after Trump got elected, that we
are not going to mass deport twenty million people, that
it was not possible. I warned you a thousand times.
So here it is again. Now it's going to take time.
You can't deport them as fast as you brought them in.
(18:36):
I'm sorry. Andrew Bailey joins us. Next, what, Chris, we
can make jokes. It's fine, you get that right.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
The Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Tuesday, wonderful Tuesday,
and it's time to talk to Andrew Bailey, Attorney General,
big cheese, top law man in the state of Basis,
and I'm excited about his political future. How many politicians.
Have you ever heard me say that about So let's
(19:06):
first talk about this, mister Attorney general, why are you
suing China?
Speaker 7 (19:12):
Well, first of all, thanks for having me on. But look,
Missourians are still demanding justice for the wrongs perpetrated during
the COVID pandemic, and it starts with China. The Chinese
communist government caused that pandemic to be unleashed upon the
rest of the world, lied to the world about it
produced essential ppe that the people needed access to, that
the state needed access to, and then hoarded that ppe
(19:34):
and deprived us of access to it. So traditional communist
economic theory, they create a demand and then limit and
manipulate the supply. This was enormously detrimental to the people
of state of Missouri, and we have filed suit to
redress that grievance against him. And look, this isn't some
crackpot legal theory. The people's elected representatives in Congress in
nineteen seventy six codified a method by which states could
(19:59):
redress exactly this sort of grievance against a foreign entity.
And it's called the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act. That's the
basis of our claim we have filed suit, China has
refused to participate in the suit, and we're asking for
twenty five billion with a B dollars.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Okay, so walk me through that, because I'm an idiot
and I don't understand how lawsuits like this work. China's
quote refusing to participate, As you say, where does this
get where does this get adjudicated? And if it comes
out on your end, what you got to fly over
there and pick up a suitcase full of cash? How
does this work?
Speaker 7 (20:31):
Well? Those are great questions. So the Foreign Sovereign Immunities
Act again provides that venue is proper in any United
States District court where venue would otherwise be proper under
the law. And so we filed suit in the United
States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri and
served the Chinese Communist government with process. So they were
served notice, they were provided an opportunity to be heard
(20:54):
and defend against the claims I've raised or raise any
counterclaims they may have, and they just didn't show up,
didn't answer our lawsuit, didn't show up to court. Initially,
the United States District Court dismissed the case on its own,
and we appealed that decision to the eight certain Court
of Appeals, who reinstated the case, and so that sent
us back down to the trial court. And the trial
court said, okay, well, the eight Circuit Court of Appeals
reinstated it. We're going to have a trial state. Bring
(21:16):
in your evidence. China, you know where to find us
if you want to come participate. China didn't do so
we put on our evidence. At the end of the trial,
the judge said, okay, I just need some supplemental briefing
and submit a proposed order. So we have done that,
and we anticipate that after we submit our supplemental briefing
here into this week beginning of next week, shortly thereafter,
the court will sign a judgment for twenty five billion
(21:38):
dollars on behalf of the State of Missouri against the
Chinese Communist government. And then it's up to us to
identify Chinese owned assets anywhere in the State of Missouri
or the United States of America, and we can work
with any willing partner who then can help us seize
those assets so they can be sold to make good
on that twenty five billion dollar judgment.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
Gosh, that sounds so sweet. I want to be involved
in that. Actually, no, don't because I'll screw something up.
But that sounds absolutely amazing. Joining me now, Attorney General
for Missouri Andrew Bailey, and a good one. Okay, now
let's talk about Starbucks. Not exactly a fan myself, clearly
you're not either. Why are you suing them?
Speaker 7 (22:15):
Well, look, ever, since twenty twenty, Starbucks has announced they
would have a diversity, equity and inclusion program that included
race based hiring quotas, and in twenty twenty one, twenty
twenty three, they actually published that their executive bonus structure
was tied to their executive's ability to achieve those racial
quotas in hiring and advancement. That's enormously problematic. It violates
(22:37):
the law in the form of the Missouri Human Rights
Act and Title seven of the Civil Rights Act of
nineteen sixty four, both of which prohibit discrimination in the workplace.
And that's what we're fighting against, this discriminatory hiring and
promotional practices by essentially a racist corporation. And so this
lawsuit's important, and I think we're one of the first
states in the nation to actually file this kind of
(22:59):
lawsuit to end discrimination in the workplace in corporate America.
We're going to keep fighting for Missouri workers and for
equality for all and for advancement based on merit.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
I love that you are aggressive with your job, aggressive
with protecting the people of Missouri. And I'm actually sad
that I even have to say that to you, because
in my mind that has always that's always been what
I expect of my attorney general, especially if he's on
the right, I expect him to advocate for me. Why
is that so rare these days? It's not that common
(23:31):
people get into that position and they're just trying to
go be the senator or which I hope you will
be one day, or a governor or something like that,
instead of seeing themselves as my shield, my vanguard. If
I live in Missouri, I need you out in front
protecting me.
Speaker 7 (23:46):
Well, I appreciate you, Jessey. Look, I want to be
your shield and your sword. And at the end of
the day, even if you're not a constituent, I can
still represent you in the offensive litigation that we file
in order to protect our rights and in just permittory
practice in the workplace and so forth. And so Look,
I'm no politician. I just want the right thing here,
and it's authorized under the law. If we just enforce
(24:08):
the laws as written and let the deliberate bodies like
the General Assembly or Congress change the laws, that's how
laws get changed. But as long as I have the
laws on the books, I'm going to enforce the laws
as written and try to find justice for the people
of state of Missouri.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Speaking of the laws as written, we have these activist
judges all across the country. This district, that district there.
It's not hard, apparently for them to dig up some
judge who's going to throw yet another stumbling block in
the Trump agenda trying to get things right. When does
this end? It's exhausting for those of us who voted
for this. We want these things done, and then we
(24:41):
watch some hack from the bench destroy it all.
Speaker 7 (24:44):
Yeah, you're totally right. Look. Article three of the United
States Constitution limits the federal judiciary determining cases and controversies
between parties. Nothing, nothing in our constitutional structure ever authorized
unelected federal judges to make law or to strike down
laws or executive actions nationwide, And so I'm advocating for
(25:05):
a limited judiciary. Judicial restraint would be the proper term.
I think you saw a lot of that. For instance,
in Justice Clarence Thomas dissent in the net Choice case
that is handed down this summer, where he excoriated this
idea that plaintiffs could raise facial challenges to state or
federal statute and that a singular, unelected United States district
court with an en joint enforcement of a statute that
(25:27):
had been put into place by the people's elected representatives.
That undermines our constitutional structure, our democratic republic. And so
that's what we're fighting against. And again it's about the
proper role of the judiciary in adjudicating cases and controversies
between parties, not making law.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
Again, speaking with Attorney General in Missouri, Andrew Bailey, can
you speak to the attorney other ages around the country
and das around the country. And what we saw under
the Biden administration of just essentially waging an open war
on Republicans in my mind, and it's one of the
most dangerous things I've seen happen in this country. And
(26:03):
I don't dismiss it now that Trump got away with
all of it and got into the White House, We've
set a precedent now that I think takes us down
a really dark road, and I'm worried that we can't
get off that road now that they started us down.
Speaker 7 (26:17):
I completely agree. I think you can't overstate the danger
to our democratic republic by the Biden Harris administration's weaponization
of government, the sorel spack prosecutors and district attorneys, weaponization
of government against political opponents, the coordination and collaboration between
Biden's grew up Department of Justice, Letitia James, the New
York State Attorney General Alvin Bragged, the Manhattan District Attorney,
(26:39):
and others Fannie Willis Willison Georgia. Again, this was a collaborated,
coordinated attack on our democratic process, with President Trump as
the chosen victim, but he was a stand in for
the rest of us. And if they can do it
to him, you better believe they can do it to you.
If they disagree with you or you disagree with them,
They're going to use the apparatus of government to come
at you. That's why I support so much launch of
(27:00):
what President Trump is doing, his efforts with DOGE, the
innovative Elon Musk to reduce the overall size of government.
It's a zero sum game, less government, more freedom.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
Amen, mister Attorney General, you come back to join me anytime,
and thank you again for that wonderful card you sent me.
It really did mean a lot. I appreciate you very much.
Speaker 7 (27:19):
Hey, God bless you. Thank you so much for having
me on. Look forward to talking soon.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
Told you dude sent me a personal little letter, handwritten
card after my dad died, showed up at my house. Man,
I mean, what does he get out of that. I'm
not voting for him. I'm not in Missouri, I'm in Texas.
Who does he get out of that? Just solid human
being and the reason I wanted him on. You know,
(27:45):
I don't have a lot of politicians on. That kind
of aggressiveness is what we need out of every single
red state age. We can't get complacent and sit back.
Now now that Trump's gotten the federal government, things are
going our way. We need more aggression at the state
and local level. We have to be on that now.
(28:05):
Speaking of family members, ones that are still here, ones
that are gone. Memories are things we all try to
keep right, We try to hang on to them. But
what happens to all those old VHS tapes, all those
old home movies the Camquarder tapes, the pictures. That's all
we ever had. I was get rid of the hard
copy pictures. You had to go get them developed or
(28:26):
you had a polaroid. You have a box of those,
don't you. You have a baby book, don't you a
wedding album? Why don't you get those digitized. I'm not
saying give up the hard copy, but time is going
to destroy that hard copy. Maybe just the humidity, the age,
a fire, flood, whatever. Eventually that hard copy goes away.
You know, it never goes away. The digital copy you
(28:50):
get from Legacy Box. You put that stuff in a box,
you mail it to Legacy Box. By the way, they
send you the box first. You don't have to worry
about that. They send you the box, you put it
in there, you mail it to Legacy Box. They're pros.
They digitize it all. And so that picture a Grandpa
from World War Two that's on your wall, your great
(29:11):
great grandkids will get to see that too. Isn't that
important to you? It really matters to me. Say fifty
percent at legacybox dot com slash Jesse, we'll be back.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
He doesn't care if you believe him, but he's right
Jesse Kelly.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show, and I've got I'm
gonna have to pull some strings here pretty shortly. Why
would I be pulling strings? By the way, you can
email the show and you should love hate death threats.
Email those into Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com. So
Rand Paul, along with Mike Lee and a couple of
the other decent senators have started to bring up a
(29:54):
decent question, a question about Fort Knox. You see, there
is a question now the internet's running wild, is there
actually any gold inside of Fort Knox? And that brought
Mike Lee around on this. Remember United States Senator god
(30:15):
Run from the state of Utah. Mike Lee came out
and said, hey, I've tried to get in Fort Knox
several times. They won't let me in. Now, now that
Mike Lee is on this, and now that Elon Musk
is on this, obviously this is going to land on
Donald Trump's desk, and I'm sure it probably already has.
(30:35):
That means there's going to be some sort of an
official visit to Fort Knox. Chris, go ahead and write
that one down. Shortly, There's going to be an official
visit to Fort Knox. I need to be there. I
need to be on the strip. Chris, why are you
rolling your eyes? Listen? Hear me out. Listen. Have you
(30:56):
ever seen the movie Goldfinger? It's an old James Bond movie,
a Sean Conry movie. It's one of the great movie
What what, Chris? You saw the Austin Powers version? You
know what, Chris, I don't want to talk to you
anymore right now? All right? So there's this great James
Bond movie called Goldfinger. Probably not appropriate for the kids,
(31:17):
looking back on it, with some of the names. Maybe
my dad probably shouldn't have let me watched that when
I was a kid. Either way, the climax takes place
in Fort Knox. And I've seen this movie twenty five times,
and ever since I watched this movie when I was
a kid, I've been fascinated by Fort Knox. I want
(31:39):
to see it in Chris. I think we should reach out.
You know what, you know what. I'm gonna do it
right now. I'm gonna do it right now on the show,
live on the air. I'm going to text Mike Lee
and I'm gonna say, Okay, take me with you to
Fort Knox. Take me with you what, Chris, I am.
I'm dead serious on this. Cross my heart. Ope to
(31:59):
do on I'm texting Mike Lee plus one, Chris, can
you be trusted in Court Knox in Fort Knox. I'll
take I'll take Corey. We'll film it for you, all right.
No one's gonna let you inside of Fortnite, although I
probably should bring you along. You're the expert, right, okay,
So take me with you to Fort Knox. Now, Mike
Lee has officially been texted. We are live on the air.
(32:20):
What time is it. It's a Tuesday night, Chris. What approximate
time is at Eastern time? You don't do time zones whatever.
Mike Lee will see if he can come through. I've
always wanted to see it all my life. I just
texted right here, alive on the air, Let's see if
we can do it. Chris. Now, do you want to
(32:41):
know as much about the history of the United States
of America or the Constitution as Mike Lee does? You
know Hillsdale can do that for you. Hillsdale College, the
amazing college we all want our kids to get into.
They're offering free courses now, no cost, forty free online courses.
(33:03):
How about the history of the ancient Christian Church. You
know you don't learn that. Where do you learn that.
I'm not talking about the Bible, the history of the church.
It's early days, it's growth. Well, how much you know
about that? You can go get a free education on it.
Hillsdale dot edu slash jesse is where you go to enroll,
(33:24):
no cost. It's easy to get started. Hillsdale dot edu
slash Jesse. Oh, Chris, Mike just texted back. No, I'm
not even kidding. All right, what do you say? He
texted back and said, sounds like fun. Yes, we are
in there like swimwear. All right, Chris, if you know what, No,
after your goldfinger comment, no, Corey, I will see if
(33:47):
I can get a plus one and I give you
my word, we will not bring Chris. We will leave
Chris a lot. We'll leave Chris behind. We'll film the
whole thing and we'll just film all that gold. We'll
see if we can maybe pocket one bar. No one's
going to freak out about what Chris, that's not that heavy.
I'll bring up satchel. You already know I have those? Hey,
all knowing Jarhead your description of how Kamala stop maturing
(34:10):
at a young age is on full display on her
drunken video at the Chicago Broadway show Chris, see if
you can grab that clip of Dome. She went to
this Broadway show and they interviewed her afterwards, and it's
one of the funniest things that I've seen because not
only does Dome come out with this mindless gibberish as
(34:30):
she's answering all these stupid questions, but she's surrounded by
all these brain dead communist drones and they spend the
whole time. You'll hear it if Chris can actually find
the Oh he hasn't, you'll hear listen to the drugs.
It's not even Dome. Listen to the guys around her.
She'll say the dumbest thing and they'll be oh, yeah, yeah,
absolutely for those rights to be maintained, which means we
(34:51):
have to be vigilant.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
And it's just the nature of it.
Speaker 3 (34:54):
I mean, look what I mean in this beautiful play.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
And everyone that we know the end of that he.
Speaker 2 (34:59):
Was suppressing a disuppressed so much the new I mean,
you know, you shoot those risks, but we have to
be a clear eye.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
And it doesn't mean we don't see the beauty and
everything ring these things all stop.
Speaker 2 (35:13):
Stop.
Speaker 4 (35:14):
I can't take it anymore.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
And hear what she said, we have to be clear eyed,
but that doesn't mean you can't see the beauty in anything.
And they're all like, hmmm, yeah, absolutely. How big of
a loser do you have to be to respond to
that idiocy like that? Oh? Remember Brandon Darby's coming up
in like two minutes. I know that's a rarity having
him on at the top of the hour, Chris, I
know that's a rarity, but we wanted to get him
(35:37):
on to talk a little bit more about the cartel
stuff because it fascinates me. Hey, Papa, cream of the crop.
I love applying your explanation of the Overton window to
everything I see in politics these days. I feel like
the Libs overpaced themselves and through excessive DEI racial division,
have caused the window to rapidly reverse course to our side.
(35:58):
Penny for your thoughts as the Overton windows shifted back
to our side. I don't know that I would say.
I don't know that I would go so far as
to say it has shifted back to our side, but
it is most definitely stopped shifting left as of right now,
(36:18):
and this is probably as close as I've ever seen
us to moving it back in the opposite direction. And
there are really two reasons for that, and those two
reasons kind of go hand in hand. First, you I,
we we anti communists, got a lot tougher with them.
(36:38):
We tried the nice route for so long. Ye live
and let live with them, Oh, roll your eyes. We
try that, but we realized you have to deal with
these people aggressively, so that we got a lot better
about But they it's always what's killed communists. It's killed
them so many times. They cannot control themselves. Remember things
(36:59):
like the FBI. You and I talk about the FBI.
You know what Barack Obama did. Unsurprisingly, there were all
these department heads in the FBI. Barack Obama got elected,
fired them all and replaced it. And they were like
FBI like law enforcement guys. Fired all the law enforcement
guys and put in a bunch of communist bureaucrats in there.
Today the FBI, I'll call you a terrorist for speaking
(37:21):
out of your school board. As soon as they got
the power Barack Obama gave them, they simply couldn't control
themselves with how they used it, and they turned themselves
into a pariah for the American people. All right, let's
talk to Brandon Darby Cartel Chronicles Next
This is a Jesse Kelly show. It is the Jesse
Kelly Show. Another hour of the Jesse Kelly Show on
a wonderful, wonderful Tuesday. I need to remind you that
about halfway through this hour, Attorney General of Missouri Andrew
Bailey is coming on. He's suing China. How does that work?
(00:31):
I hate to ask stupid questions. I'm gonna ask him,
how do you get any money from that? If China
doesn't agree? So I'll ask the ag that in a
little bit a little programming note, we were gonna have
Cartel expert Brandon Darby on halfway through next hour. We're
gonna have him at the start of next hour. What
do you call that? In radio, Chris, Top of the Hour,
(00:51):
Top top of the hour, Top of the hour. We're
gonna have Brandon Darby on. What a journalist I am?
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Oh my god, it's journalist Jesse.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
But for now, let's make fun of democrats before we
do some emails and talk about social security and other things.
So the American people are waking up every day and
they're getting headlines that are eye popping about government corruption, fraud, waste,
and well, this was Caroline Levin.
Speaker 3 (01:18):
President Trump has directed Elon Musk in the DOGE team
to identify fraud at the Social Security Administration. They haven't
dug into the books yet, but they suspect that there
are tens of millions of deceased people who are receiving
fraudulent Social Security payments. And so their goal and going
into the Social Security Administration is to identify three things.
(01:40):
Number one, to identify duplicate payments and to end them.
Number two, to identify payments that are going to deceased
people who are no longer living and should no longer
be receiving that money. And number three, to protect the
integrity of this system for hardworking Americans who have been
paying into their entire lives.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
Who's against that? I'm looking at this headline, You're what
is politics, especially when it comes to a representative republic,
a constitutional republic like we have here, What is it?
If you really want political power, you generally have to
be on the side of the majority of the public.
(02:22):
And ideally you want to be on the side of
the large majority of the public. Like Trump's really masterful
with this the men and women's sports thing. Why didn't
Trump push that further? Like as far as you would
probably take that with all the training madness, because you
pull tests just that men and women's sports. It's eighty twenty.
(02:47):
The American people despise it. Even a majority of Democrats
hate it. Now, if you're a Democrat, you're more likely well,
I mean, yeah, he's a tranny, and it's okay, I
mean you can change that. But even then, you don't
want them beating up women in sports. Even then you'll
draw a line. Okay, well, at least don't beat up
the fifth grade girl. Right, Trump takes that stance. No,
(03:10):
men and women's sports, it's just the art to politics,
the are to being popular. Here's a headline from the
Epic Times. Database lists twelve million people older than one
point twenty as eligible for Social Security. Twelve million people
who are dead are eligible for Social Security. Here's a
(03:31):
headline musks Doge discovers four point seven trillion with the
t as in tom tango whatever tangerine. Four point seven
trillion vanished in untraceable payments. Social Security had resigns after
(03:53):
what might be the biggest fraud in US history. Now,
these are not Republican issues, Democrat issues, independent issues. Citizens
who reside in the United States of America eighty twenty.
They want government corruption cleaned out. Now. That brings us
to the current state of the Democrat Party. Senator Ed
(04:15):
Markey at a rally to protest all this Doe stuff,
oh sex marriage started here. Revolution against some war art
now started here. The revolution against Donald Trump an Elon
must it starts here.
Speaker 4 (04:36):
The revolution in Vietnams against Vietnams starting here, and the
revolution against Elon and Trump starts here. Revolution against cleaning
up government corruption.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
And I saw this. This is the Pollinteer CEO Alex
Karp he said this.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
I just view this as well, let's watch the Democratic
Party commit suicide. And like I've been a Democrat most
of my life, I would still I kind of few
myself as outside it, but I don't like watching the
Democrats just commit suicide. And what I see is most
of the country doesn't really at this point given the
fraud wasting abuse we know, is there ninety percent of
(05:20):
the countries like get rid of that fraud wasting abuse.
And I just view this as yet another example of
the progressive left boxing themselves in into a suicide dance.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
That's such an outstanding way to put It's why I
wanted to play it for you, boxing themselves into a
suicide dance. Here's a nypopping number for you. Forty five
percent of Democrats want their party to shift to the middle.
But the problem is that forty five percent they don't
(05:54):
run the party. The party, I say, has been handed
over to the radical Marxist, the cultural Marxists. But that
may not be entirely fair, because these are animals, they're revolutionaries.
They're used to infiltrating things and infecting them and conquering institutions.
So maybe it wasn't as much the old guard of
(06:16):
the Democrat Party handed it over to the new generation
of nutjobs. Maybe it's not as much that as the
new generation of nutjobs simply infiltrated it, worked their way
through it like the revolutionaries they are, and now they
run it. But whatever the reason, they now run it.
And it's not like I want them to improve. It's
(06:37):
like I'm at the zoo watching monkeys throw poop at
each other. I'm amazed that they can't.
Speaker 4 (06:44):
I'm amazed at how locked into their religious beliefs they are.
Speaker 1 (06:51):
They simply cannot let them go. This constant revolution stuff,
constant you must oppose everything Donald Trump does. One of
the greatest benefits politically Donald Trump has had and his
remarkable run in politics, is he can count on Democrats
(07:11):
vocally opposing everything. It doesn't matter what he does. Trump
could pick up an adorable puppy and snuggle it and
kiss it on television, and that afternoon it would be
Democrat after democrat after democrat vocally coming out against puppies.
It makes you look horrible when you don't know when
(07:32):
to shut up. And that's probably what gets me the
most is it's not like I expect them to come
out and endorse anything Elon Musk is doing or Trump
is doing. I'm not naive. I know how politics work.
You know how politics works. I don't expect Ed Markey
to give a news conference saying, well, you know, I
didn't vote for Donald Trump, but I gotta tell you,
I'm a big fan of cleaning out this corruption, and
(07:52):
I think he's doing a really good job. I'm not
naive that's not gonna happen. But you don't have to
say anything. You don't have to vocal oppose it.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
You don't have to stand in the streets and call
for revolution because they're finding corruption and waste. It's the
biggest political gimme, one of the biggest political gimmes I've
ever seen in my life. All you say right now,
if you're a Democrat is I can't stand Donald Trump.
Speaker 1 (08:20):
I think he's doing a terrible job. We need to
get Democrats back in charge. I am glad we're cleaning
out some of this fraud and abuse, though, because the taxpayer,
the American citizen, deserves better. That's all you have to say.
That's the easiest layup in the world. But they can't
do it. I think it was my buddy Arn McIntyre
who came up with the term the uh the suicidal
(08:42):
death spiral. I think he called it where you're each
one has to out radicalize the one before him, and
then the next one has to outradicalize then the next one.
I no, no, I hate Trump even more than you do. No,
I hate him even more. I hate him even more.
And without a buddy there to keep it all in check,
(09:02):
they're completely losing it. James Carvel, James.
Speaker 6 (09:05):
Carve, that longtime political strategist, came out and said, I
dedicated to the best years of my life to this
beeping party, only to see it taken over by a
bunch of stupid mother I can't well, I really can't
quote much of James Covill here on this family show.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
But yeah, I'll just leave it at that. You get
the gist of what he's saying. The older Democrats I
told you about this, The older Democrats who built the
coalition that helped them in power for so long, are
watching these nutballs give it all back, and I love it.
It's hilarious. Let's do some emails before we talk about
(09:41):
Fort Knox. Let's get your pain right though. Let's get
the pain out of your life, that daily grinding pain
that keeps you up at night, that keeps you from
getting out of bed in the morning, that keeps you
from golfing, going for a walk, playing pickleball. What don't
you do that you used to do before your hands
(10:03):
started hurting? Your back, your shoulder, your neck's always bothering you.
Let Relief Factor get that pain out of your life.
One hundred percent drug free. It's a supplement. It will
build up in your body over time. The longer you
take it, the better it works. That's why they sell
three week quick starts of it nineteen dollars and ninety
(10:25):
five cents. You take it every single day. Stop masking
that pain. Stop avoiding pickleball. Pickleball is a blast. I'll
tell you about that in a second. Start embracing relief Factor.
Relief Factor dot com or give them a call one
eight hundred, do the number four relief. I might be retiring. Next.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
You're listening to the ourcle you love this one. It's
a scream baby, the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show. On a Tuesday at
Amazing Tuesday. A member Attorney General of Missouri joins us
about ten minutes or now, I want to know, how
do you sue China? Maybe we should sue China. Chris,
you have to know some lawyers. I don't know what
for whatever they hate me already. Anyway, we can sue China. Anyway,
we'll discuss that with the age of Missouri. Brandon Darby,
(11:18):
if that, If that cartel talk interested you in the
beginning of the show, you'll want to hang around. Brandon
Darby's gonna join us about forty five minutes from now.
I'm way behind on emails, though Jesse Trump has reduced
ten thousand illegals to day to three hundred and ninety
two a day. Why is there still three hundred and
ninety two if they can count that. If people are
(11:39):
getting frustrated with the pace of deportation, and people are
starting to call out Trump for it, why is it
slowing down? It shouldn't be slowing down. Why is it
slowing down? Okay, so let me explain it this way
best I can. Let's say I'm fat, and in fact,
(12:02):
I am fat right now. But let's say I'm fat.
And here's the thing about me. I've had periods of
time in my life where I've been in good shape
and then I'll get fat, and then I'll get myself
back in shape and I'll get fat. It's terrible. Don't
be like that, don't be like me. But I need
to lose some weight now. I brought up pickleball before
I went into the break. I can play pickleball. I've started.
(12:26):
I've played one game of pickleball, actually one game. I
won one pretty easily, thinking I might end up going professional,
but that's another story entirely. So, exercise is one of
the things that helped me get back in better shape
and lose some weight. Soda pop depending on which part
of the country you're in That that's the one for me,
(12:49):
that's easy. That is five pounds for me. Did you
know that I've done this enough times in my life
where I get fat get back in shape. That's soda.
It's five pounds. Meaning if I drink a water with
my meal instead of that mountain dew or that coke
or something like that, five pounds. That's a difference, and
it's almost it's almost on the button five pounds and
(13:13):
it's directly off my stomach. Five pounds. Now let's say
I'm fifty pounds overweight. Well, it's really not that difficult
for me. For me. Everyone has their vices and things
they love more. But for me, cutting out soda is
actually fairly easy. And I haven't had anything while it's
just not a big deal. I'm not big on that.
(13:33):
I'd rather frankly have water. I feel better. Cutting out
soda is not easy, So boom, I need to lose
fifty five of it's gone nice. That was the easy part.
Now I got forty five more to lose. That's a
lot of pickleball. Start looking at my diet. Hmm, I
(13:54):
think maybe the tacos are going to have to get
phased out. Maybe the cheese steaks, the pizza. We have
a great Detroit style pizza place here, love you Jets.
Jets is probably going to have to go. Now Can
I do these things? Can I cut out the tacos?
Can I cut out the cheese steaks? Can I cut
(14:15):
out the pizza? Maybe? I don't even want to say yes. Maybe,
but I promise you this. It won't be easy. Not
for me. That's how I eat. Maybe you don't eat
that way and it would be easy for you. The
soda was the low hanging fruit, the easy part for me.
But now that we got the easy part done, the
(14:37):
hard part has to begin where the cheese steaks have
to go. In the United States of America, the Biden
administration brought in twenty million people on purpose. Large numbers
of those people were monsters, real legitimate monsters, where countries
emptied their prisons of the worst people they had and
(14:59):
put them in the the United States of America. Those people,
oftentimes under the Biden administration, they were given labels where
they didn't deport them, they caught them and released them,
but even still they put a marker on them of hey,
this guy, uh got quite a record down in old Guatemala.
(15:22):
Just want to let you know he's down there in
San Antonio. Just the heads up. He's in this neighborhood.
The worst of the worst of the worst, the ones
who needed to be removed immediately we knew where they were.
That was the easy part, the first few weeks, what
we saw, that was the easy part. Now, as a country,
(15:47):
and this may be something that will affect you, affect me.
Now it's time for the cheese steaks. It's time for
the pizza. It's time for that cheeseburger. It's time. Now
that we got rid of the easy stuff, now it's
time to get rid of the stuff that will be hard.
It will be more difficult. Here's the truth of it.
(16:11):
I was actually joking with Chris and Corey before the show,
but it's one hundred percent true. Do you ever get
food delivered? We get food delivered. You know, I've told
you this before. I try to get food for the fellas.
Once a day we get food delivered. So it's five
days a week we get food delivered.
Speaker 7 (16:25):
Here.
Speaker 1 (16:26):
We don't have a restaurant right next door. We got
someone bring it to us. We're working, we get food delivered.
Food delivery times have fellas doubled, triple. Chris says, more tripled.
That's probably not unreasonable tripled. Now look at me whining
about this. This is a small price to pay to
save a country. I'm not complaining. I'm pointing out already
(16:48):
today we have a taco joint, probably the closest joint
to us. Today. We got tacos. We get them every time,
ten minutes, fifteen minutes about max today about forty five
minutes for them to get here. Why Trump deported all
the illegals. The door dash, Uber eats regular, any kind
(17:08):
of delivery driver, favor, whatever app you happen to use.
They are famously some of the easiest jobs for illegals
to get. They just are. It's something I've known. I've
talked about it on the show forever. It's a normal profession,
a safe profession, easy for an illegal to get into it. So, look,
this is a minor thing, But are you ready for
(17:31):
more expensive produce? Local hotel actually a hotel by your mother.
You're gonna leave town. You go visit your mother every
few months. You're gonna leave town. You're gonna stay at
the best Western nearby Best Western used to be sixty
five bucks a night. You show up at the Best
Western to check in, it's seventy five bucks a night.
You talk to the manager about it, You follow it down.
(17:52):
The manager had to let go of some of the
housekeeping staff. Wees had to go up, wages went up,
room prices went up. This is not a complaint illegal immigration.
Illegal immigrants themselves have for decades been ingraining themselves into
(18:15):
our society in a million different ways. I warned you
a thousand times, even after Trump got elected, that we
are not going to mass deport twenty million people, that
it was not possible. I warned you a thousand times.
So here it is again. Now it's going to take time.
You can't deport them as fast as you brought them in.
(18:36):
I'm sorry. Andrew Bailey joins us. Next, what, Chris, we
can make jokes. It's fine, you get that right.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
The Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Tuesday, wonderful Tuesday,
and it's time to talk to Andrew Bailey, Attorney General,
big cheese, top law man in the state of Basis,
and I'm excited about his political future. How many politicians.
Have you ever heard me say that about So let's
(19:06):
first talk about this, mister Attorney general, why are you
suing China?
Speaker 7 (19:12):
Well, first of all, thanks for having me on. But look,
Missourians are still demanding justice for the wrongs perpetrated during
the COVID pandemic, and it starts with China. The Chinese
communist government caused that pandemic to be unleashed upon the
rest of the world, lied to the world about it
produced essential ppe that the people needed access to, that
the state needed access to, and then hoarded that ppe
(19:34):
and deprived us of access to it. So traditional communist
economic theory, they create a demand and then limit and
manipulate the supply. This was enormously detrimental to the people
of state of Missouri, and we have filed suit to
redress that grievance against him. And look, this isn't some
crackpot legal theory. The people's elected representatives in Congress in
nineteen seventy six codified a method by which states could
(19:59):
redress exactly this sort of grievance against a foreign entity.
And it's called the Foreign Sovereign Immunities Act. That's the
basis of our claim we have filed suit, China has
refused to participate in the suit, and we're asking for
twenty five billion with a B dollars.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Okay, so walk me through that, because I'm an idiot
and I don't understand how lawsuits like this work. China's
quote refusing to participate, As you say, where does this
get where does this get adjudicated? And if it comes
out on your end, what you got to fly over
there and pick up a suitcase full of cash? How
does this work?
Speaker 7 (20:31):
Well? Those are great questions. So the Foreign Sovereign Immunities
Act again provides that venue is proper in any United
States District court where venue would otherwise be proper under
the law. And so we filed suit in the United
States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri and
served the Chinese Communist government with process. So they were
served notice, they were provided an opportunity to be heard
(20:54):
and defend against the claims I've raised or raise any
counterclaims they may have, and they just didn't show up,
didn't answer our lawsuit, didn't show up to court. Initially,
the United States District Court dismissed the case on its own,
and we appealed that decision to the eight certain Court
of Appeals, who reinstated the case, and so that sent
us back down to the trial court. And the trial
court said, okay, well, the eight Circuit Court of Appeals
reinstated it. We're going to have a trial state. Bring
(21:16):
in your evidence. China, you know where to find us
if you want to come participate. China didn't do so
we put on our evidence. At the end of the trial,
the judge said, okay, I just need some supplemental briefing
and submit a proposed order. So we have done that,
and we anticipate that after we submit our supplemental briefing
here into this week beginning of next week, shortly thereafter,
the court will sign a judgment for twenty five billion
(21:38):
dollars on behalf of the State of Missouri against the
Chinese Communist government. And then it's up to us to
identify Chinese owned assets anywhere in the State of Missouri
or the United States of America, and we can work
with any willing partner who then can help us seize
those assets so they can be sold to make good
on that twenty five billion dollar judgment.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
Gosh, that sounds so sweet. I want to be involved
in that. Actually, no, don't because I'll screw something up.
But that sounds absolutely amazing. Joining me now, Attorney General
for Missouri Andrew Bailey, and a good one. Okay, now
let's talk about Starbucks. Not exactly a fan myself, clearly
you're not either. Why are you suing them?
Speaker 7 (22:15):
Well, look, ever, since twenty twenty, Starbucks has announced they
would have a diversity, equity and inclusion program that included
race based hiring quotas, and in twenty twenty one, twenty
twenty three, they actually published that their executive bonus structure
was tied to their executive's ability to achieve those racial
quotas in hiring and advancement. That's enormously problematic. It violates
(22:37):
the law in the form of the Missouri Human Rights
Act and Title seven of the Civil Rights Act of
nineteen sixty four, both of which prohibit discrimination in the workplace.
And that's what we're fighting against, this discriminatory hiring and
promotional practices by essentially a racist corporation. And so this
lawsuit's important, and I think we're one of the first
states in the nation to actually file this kind of
(22:59):
lawsuit to end discrimination in the workplace in corporate America.
We're going to keep fighting for Missouri workers and for
equality for all and for advancement based on merit.
Speaker 1 (23:08):
I love that you are aggressive with your job, aggressive
with protecting the people of Missouri. And I'm actually sad
that I even have to say that to you, because
in my mind that has always that's always been what
I expect of my attorney general, especially if he's on
the right, I expect him to advocate for me. Why
is that so rare these days? It's not that common
(23:31):
people get into that position and they're just trying to
go be the senator or which I hope you will
be one day, or a governor or something like that,
instead of seeing themselves as my shield, my vanguard. If
I live in Missouri, I need you out in front
protecting me.
Speaker 7 (23:46):
Well, I appreciate you, Jessey. Look, I want to be
your shield and your sword. And at the end of
the day, even if you're not a constituent, I can
still represent you in the offensive litigation that we file
in order to protect our rights and in just permittory
practice in the workplace and so forth. And so Look,
I'm no politician. I just want the right thing here,
and it's authorized under the law. If we just enforce
(24:08):
the laws as written and let the deliberate bodies like
the General Assembly or Congress change the laws, that's how
laws get changed. But as long as I have the
laws on the books, I'm going to enforce the laws
as written and try to find justice for the people
of state of Missouri.
Speaker 1 (24:20):
Speaking of the laws as written, we have these activist
judges all across the country. This district, that district there.
It's not hard, apparently for them to dig up some
judge who's going to throw yet another stumbling block in
the Trump agenda trying to get things right. When does
this end? It's exhausting for those of us who voted
for this. We want these things done, and then we
(24:41):
watch some hack from the bench destroy it all.
Speaker 7 (24:44):
Yeah, you're totally right. Look. Article three of the United
States Constitution limits the federal judiciary determining cases and controversies
between parties. Nothing, nothing in our constitutional structure ever authorized
unelected federal judges to make law or to strike down
laws or executive actions nationwide, And so I'm advocating for
(25:05):
a limited judiciary. Judicial restraint would be the proper term.
I think you saw a lot of that. For instance,
in Justice Clarence Thomas dissent in the net Choice case
that is handed down this summer, where he excoriated this
idea that plaintiffs could raise facial challenges to state or
federal statute and that a singular, unelected United States district
court with an en joint enforcement of a statute that
(25:27):
had been put into place by the people's elected representatives.
That undermines our constitutional structure, our democratic republic. And so
that's what we're fighting against. And again it's about the
proper role of the judiciary in adjudicating cases and controversies
between parties, not making law.
Speaker 1 (25:43):
Again, speaking with Attorney General in Missouri, Andrew Bailey, can
you speak to the attorney other ages around the country
and das around the country. And what we saw under
the Biden administration of just essentially waging an open war
on Republicans in my mind, and it's one of the
most dangerous things I've seen happen in this country. And
(26:03):
I don't dismiss it now that Trump got away with
all of it and got into the White House, We've
set a precedent now that I think takes us down
a really dark road, and I'm worried that we can't
get off that road now that they started us down.
Speaker 7 (26:17):
I completely agree. I think you can't overstate the danger
to our democratic republic by the Biden Harris administration's weaponization
of government, the sorel spack prosecutors and district attorneys, weaponization
of government against political opponents, the coordination and collaboration between
Biden's grew up Department of Justice, Letitia James, the New
York State Attorney General Alvin Bragged, the Manhattan District Attorney,
(26:39):
and others Fannie Willis Willison Georgia. Again, this was a collaborated,
coordinated attack on our democratic process, with President Trump as
the chosen victim, but he was a stand in for
the rest of us. And if they can do it
to him, you better believe they can do it to you.
If they disagree with you or you disagree with them,
They're going to use the apparatus of government to come
at you. That's why I support so much launch of
(27:00):
what President Trump is doing, his efforts with DOGE, the
innovative Elon Musk to reduce the overall size of government.
It's a zero sum game, less government, more freedom.
Speaker 1 (27:10):
Amen, mister Attorney General, you come back to join me anytime,
and thank you again for that wonderful card you sent me.
It really did mean a lot. I appreciate you very much.
Speaker 7 (27:19):
Hey, God bless you. Thank you so much for having
me on. Look forward to talking soon.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
Told you dude sent me a personal little letter, handwritten
card after my dad died, showed up at my house. Man,
I mean, what does he get out of that. I'm
not voting for him. I'm not in Missouri, I'm in Texas.
Who does he get out of that? Just solid human
being and the reason I wanted him on. You know,
(27:45):
I don't have a lot of politicians on. That kind
of aggressiveness is what we need out of every single
red state age. We can't get complacent and sit back.
Now now that Trump's gotten the federal government, things are
going our way. We need more aggression at the state
and local level. We have to be on that now.
(28:05):
Speaking of family members, ones that are still here, ones
that are gone. Memories are things we all try to
keep right, We try to hang on to them. But
what happens to all those old VHS tapes, all those
old home movies the Camquarder tapes, the pictures. That's all
we ever had. I was get rid of the hard
copy pictures. You had to go get them developed or
(28:26):
you had a polaroid. You have a box of those,
don't you. You have a baby book, don't you a
wedding album? Why don't you get those digitized. I'm not
saying give up the hard copy, but time is going
to destroy that hard copy. Maybe just the humidity, the age,
a fire, flood, whatever. Eventually that hard copy goes away.
You know, it never goes away. The digital copy you
(28:50):
get from Legacy Box. You put that stuff in a box,
you mail it to Legacy Box. By the way, they
send you the box first. You don't have to worry
about that. They send you the box, you put it
in there, you mail it to Legacy Box. They're pros.
They digitize it all. And so that picture a Grandpa
from World War Two that's on your wall, your great
(29:11):
great grandkids will get to see that too. Isn't that
important to you? It really matters to me. Say fifty
percent at legacybox dot com slash Jesse, we'll be back.
Speaker 2 (29:23):
He doesn't care if you believe him, but he's right
Jesse Kelly.
Speaker 1 (29:30):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show, and I've got I'm
gonna have to pull some strings here pretty shortly. Why
would I be pulling strings? By the way, you can
email the show and you should love hate death threats.
Email those into Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com. So
Rand Paul, along with Mike Lee and a couple of
the other decent senators have started to bring up a
(29:54):
decent question, a question about Fort Knox. You see, there
is a question now the internet's running wild, is there
actually any gold inside of Fort Knox? And that brought
Mike Lee around on this. Remember United States Senator god
(30:15):
Run from the state of Utah. Mike Lee came out
and said, hey, I've tried to get in Fort Knox
several times. They won't let me in. Now, now that
Mike Lee is on this, and now that Elon Musk
is on this, obviously this is going to land on
Donald Trump's desk, and I'm sure it probably already has.
(30:35):
That means there's going to be some sort of an
official visit to Fort Knox. Chris, go ahead and write
that one down. Shortly, There's going to be an official
visit to Fort Knox. I need to be there. I
need to be on the strip. Chris, why are you
rolling your eyes? Listen? Hear me out. Listen. Have you
(30:56):
ever seen the movie Goldfinger? It's an old James Bond movie,
a Sean Conry movie. It's one of the great movie
What what, Chris? You saw the Austin Powers version? You
know what, Chris, I don't want to talk to you
anymore right now? All right? So there's this great James
Bond movie called Goldfinger. Probably not appropriate for the kids,
(31:17):
looking back on it, with some of the names. Maybe
my dad probably shouldn't have let me watched that when
I was a kid. Either way, the climax takes place
in Fort Knox. And I've seen this movie twenty five times,
and ever since I watched this movie when I was
a kid, I've been fascinated by Fort Knox. I want
(31:39):
to see it in Chris. I think we should reach out.
You know what, you know what. I'm gonna do it
right now. I'm gonna do it right now on the show,
live on the air. I'm going to text Mike Lee
and I'm gonna say, Okay, take me with you to
Fort Knox. Take me with you what, Chris, I am.
I'm dead serious on this. Cross my heart. Ope to
(31:59):
do on I'm texting Mike Lee plus one, Chris, can
you be trusted in Court Knox in Fort Knox. I'll
take I'll take Corey. We'll film it for you, all right.
No one's gonna let you inside of Fortnite, although I
probably should bring you along. You're the expert, right, okay,
So take me with you to Fort Knox. Now, Mike
Lee has officially been texted. We are live on the air.
(32:20):
What time is it. It's a Tuesday night, Chris. What approximate
time is at Eastern time? You don't do time zones whatever.
Mike Lee will see if he can come through. I've
always wanted to see it all my life. I just
texted right here, alive on the air, Let's see if
we can do it. Chris. Now, do you want to
(32:41):
know as much about the history of the United States
of America or the Constitution as Mike Lee does? You
know Hillsdale can do that for you. Hillsdale College, the
amazing college we all want our kids to get into.
They're offering free courses now, no cost, forty free online courses.
(33:03):
How about the history of the ancient Christian Church. You
know you don't learn that. Where do you learn that.
I'm not talking about the Bible, the history of the church.
It's early days, it's growth. Well, how much you know
about that? You can go get a free education on it.
Hillsdale dot edu slash jesse is where you go to enroll,
(33:24):
no cost. It's easy to get started. Hillsdale dot edu
slash Jesse. Oh, Chris, Mike just texted back. No, I'm
not even kidding. All right, what do you say? He
texted back and said, sounds like fun. Yes, we are
in there like swimwear. All right, Chris, if you know what, No,
after your goldfinger comment, no, Corey, I will see if
(33:47):
I can get a plus one and I give you
my word, we will not bring Chris. We will leave
Chris a lot. We'll leave Chris behind. We'll film the
whole thing and we'll just film all that gold. We'll
see if we can maybe pocket one bar. No one's
going to freak out about what Chris, that's not that heavy.
I'll bring up satchel. You already know I have those? Hey,
all knowing Jarhead your description of how Kamala stop maturing
(34:10):
at a young age is on full display on her
drunken video at the Chicago Broadway show Chris, see if
you can grab that clip of Dome. She went to
this Broadway show and they interviewed her afterwards, and it's
one of the funniest things that I've seen because not
only does Dome come out with this mindless gibberish as
(34:30):
she's answering all these stupid questions, but she's surrounded by
all these brain dead communist drones and they spend the
whole time. You'll hear it if Chris can actually find
the Oh he hasn't, you'll hear listen to the drugs.
It's not even Dome. Listen to the guys around her.
She'll say the dumbest thing and they'll be oh, yeah, yeah,
absolutely for those rights to be maintained, which means we
(34:51):
have to be vigilant.
Speaker 2 (34:52):
And it's just the nature of it.
Speaker 3 (34:54):
I mean, look what I mean in this beautiful play.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
And everyone that we know the end of that he.
Speaker 2 (34:59):
Was suppressing a disuppressed so much the new I mean,
you know, you shoot those risks, but we have to
be a clear eye.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
And it doesn't mean we don't see the beauty and
everything ring these things all stop.
Speaker 2 (35:13):
Stop.
Speaker 4 (35:14):
I can't take it anymore.
Speaker 1 (35:15):
And hear what she said, we have to be clear eyed,
but that doesn't mean you can't see the beauty in anything.
And they're all like, hmmm, yeah, absolutely. How big of
a loser do you have to be to respond to
that idiocy like that? Oh? Remember Brandon Darby's coming up
in like two minutes. I know that's a rarity having
him on at the top of the hour, Chris, I
know that's a rarity, but we wanted to get him
(35:37):
on to talk a little bit more about the cartel
stuff because it fascinates me. Hey, Papa, cream of the crop.
I love applying your explanation of the Overton window to
everything I see in politics these days. I feel like
the Libs overpaced themselves and through excessive DEI racial division,
have caused the window to rapidly reverse course to our side.
(35:58):
Penny for your thoughts as the Overton windows shifted back
to our side. I don't know that I would say.
I don't know that I would go so far as
to say it has shifted back to our side, but
it is most definitely stopped shifting left as of right now,
(36:18):
and this is probably as close as I've ever seen
us to moving it back in the opposite direction. And
there are really two reasons for that, and those two
reasons kind of go hand in hand. First, you I,
we we anti communists, got a lot tougher with them.
(36:38):
We tried the nice route for so long. Ye live
and let live with them, Oh, roll your eyes. We
try that, but we realized you have to deal with
these people aggressively, so that we got a lot better
about But they it's always what's killed communists. It's killed
them so many times. They cannot control themselves. Remember things
(36:59):
like the FBI. You and I talk about the FBI.
You know what Barack Obama did. Unsurprisingly, there were all
these department heads in the FBI. Barack Obama got elected,
fired them all and replaced it. And they were like
FBI like law enforcement guys. Fired all the law enforcement
guys and put in a bunch of communist bureaucrats in there.
Today the FBI, I'll call you a terrorist for speaking
(37:21):
out of your school board. As soon as they got
the power Barack Obama gave them, they simply couldn't control
themselves with how they used it, and they turned themselves
into a pariah for the American people. All right, let's
talk to Brandon Darby Cartel Chronicles Next
