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. We've got about half hour from now,
we have Daniel Turner coming on. He's going to talk
about the AI data centers and the power grid and
(00:33):
what it means. I'm totally nerding out on this, fascinated
by this whole thing. Maybe you'll find it boring, maybe
you'll geek out with me on it, but I want
to know what's coming and why it's coming. So that's
coming up about a half hour from now. We'll do
some emails. But before I get to that, I'm not
going to spend a lot of time on this, but
I'm going to touch on this briefly. There's something I
(00:55):
haven't quite figured out. I can see it. It's very
odd to me, and I haven't figured out the why
behind it. And that thing is Democrats in their use
of the F word, their public use it's not only
the F word, their public use of profanity. And before
(01:19):
I go into this, I just want to be clear
that I am obviously no saint whatsoever. I'm not sitting
here preaching to you about something. I've used more potty
words in my life than I ever should have. Okay,
I'm not encouraging you to ever do so. I just
want to be clear that I'm not moralizing against it.
(01:42):
But when I see patterns, when I see patterns, I
start looking for why. Remember remember, for instance, remember when
Trump about the Epstein stuff, all of a sudden started
coming out saying, shut up and move on, you idiot.
Shut up and move on, you idiot. He said it
several times, and that's when I predicted they're going to
leak something. Why did I predict that correctly? Because I
(02:05):
noticed a pattern. Donald Trump says the same thing several
days in a row. Why. It makes me ask why so?
Hunter Biden recently sat down for an interview, and I
realized it's Hunter Biden. It needs a crackhead and it's
a nut job. But tell me if you notice anything
with this little clip number one.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
I agree with Quentin Tarantino. George Clooney is not an actor.
He is a like I don't know what he is.
He's a brand. And by the way, and God bless him,
you know what. He fuzzily treats his friends really well,
you know, what I mean, buys them things. And he's
got a really great place in Lake Como, and he's
great friends with Barack Obama. You what do you have
(02:46):
to do with anything? Why do I have to listen
to you?
Speaker 1 (02:49):
What we got it? Believe me? It goes on and
on and on, beep beep, beep, beep beep. The Toughel.
I'm not just picking on Hunter Biden. Elected Democrats, elected Democrats, senators,
member of members of the House. Where I never saw
(03:09):
this before, ever out of either party ever, will now
regularly talk like this in public. Is to understand enough.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
About the Constitution to the extent that I'm the one
that's supposed to make a decision or at least get
a both.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
If you could speak directly to Elon Musk, what would
you say. It's not just young ones either, it's older ones.
There's a pattern happening. Stephen Colbert. Stephen Colbert on his
show last night, that filthy communist who got his show canceled,
and then Trump hilariously made fun of him for it.
National television CBS said this.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
On Friday, Donald Trump posted, I absolutely love that Colbert
got fired.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
His talent was even less than his ratings.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
How dare you, sir, would an untalented man be able
to compose the following satirical witticism Go.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
Yourself, comedic genius John Stewart. This is from not the
Bee sings the F word for a full minute to
react to Colbert's show getting canceled. I I am not
even sure I should have done this little segment because
I don't have an actual answer. But something is happening
(04:28):
and I can't figure out why. When all the animals
start speaking the same way, doing the same thing, there
is a reason for it. I don't know whether this
is this is what I suspect. Okay, this is just
a suspicion. I don't know. Democrats understand. Multiple Democrats have
(04:49):
come out and explained that normal people, working class people
have left them. They are now the party of the rich,
urban elite. They just are. If you are in a rich,
urban elite population center, that's going to be heavily Democratic.
But anywhere outside of that, working people, even unions, are
(05:11):
leaving the Democrat Party in droves. They know, they know
they have a problem there. They don't know how to
fix it. So when you're Dome and you're running for president,
and you roll tim walls out there to try to
get make sure white people don't think you hate them
as much as you very clearly do. And he goes
hunting and can't seem to put rounds in a shotgun
(05:33):
put you. It was embarrassing. It was embarrassing, but it's
clear what they were doing. Hey, normal guy, I'm not
a dirty communist to hate you. Look at me fezen hunting.
It was embarrassing. I think maybe in kind of an
ugly bit of a crass fashion, I think maybe this
(05:54):
renewed use of a bunch of potty words by elected
officials and power or people. I think maybe it's an
effort to let construction guy know, to let union guy
know that, hey, I still care about you, and if
you can't drive that home with your policies and every
single day you're explaining why white people suck, you'd try
(06:18):
to do that by saying a F word, because you
assume he says the F word when he's out there
working asphalt. That's my suspicion. I don't know that that's true,
but I know this. I'm only forty four, I swear.
I know I may look sixty four, but I'm forty
four years old. Never in my childhood and for most
(06:41):
of my adult life, do I remember a politician saying
a cuss word in public? And if they did, it
was always ah, and it wasn't even a super bad one.
They might get caught saying it privately, they might get
quoted saying it privately, because they're human beings, and human
beings say things when they stub their toe, Not that
I would ever do something like that, but publicly, they'll
(07:05):
put these things out on social media. Publicly, I'm not
sure I know why. Anyway, let's do some emails tonight,
shall we, Doctor Jesse. Too often we hear the argument
that illegal immigrants are needed as farm and hospitality workers.
Those working in these fields have already been here for decades.
Why do we suddenly need twenty million more people? It's
(07:30):
not the Democrats think we need farm workers and people
to pick the strawberries. Remember what I tell you about communists,
how they use your values against you because they don't
have values, none that you would recognize. That gives them
complete freedom, complete moral freedom to take whatever values you
(07:52):
have and use it against you. However, they don't share
your values, so they may think they know what your
values are, but they can't ever be shorts. They don't
share them, right, they don't share them. So what do
you do if I'm trying to use your values against
you and I don't share your values, so I don't
(08:13):
share your heart, what do I do? Well, I try
a bunch of different things. If I if I can't
quote the Bible to you, hey, Jesus said, if I can't.
If I try that and it doesn't work, okay, well
dang it. I thought that was gonna work, I'll move on.
And you see Democrats with almost every single issue, when
(08:33):
they're losing on one, they'll try this the we need
people to clean the hotel rooms and pick our strawberries
for us. That's not because they care about any of
those things. That's an effort to get it home to you.
It's it's not only a hey don't you like strawberries?
It's an also it's also there's a little threat built
(08:56):
into there, Hey don't you like strawberries? And if we
don't don't have Pedro doing it, you're gonna be out
there in the fields breaking your back. Do you want
to have to go break your back in the fields?
Of course you don't just let Pedro do it and
all of his friends. That's the message. It's a message
trying to use your values against you, trying to sell
(09:17):
you on why you want cheap strawberries, while at the
same time a little threat builds in. You don't want
to clean hotel rooms, do you? As if that's something
we can't do. That's the first job my sister ever
had was cleaning hotel rooms. As if American citizens of
every color can't pick strawberries or don't know how to
work physically or work with their hands. That's crazy. But
(09:39):
that's all it is. None of it is based on
facts or reality or how they really feel on something.
Everything is an effort to weaken your defenses. Whatever way
they can do it, they will do it. If they
quote the Bible and it doesn't work, they'll move on
to mention the strawberries. If that doesn't work, they'll move
on to mention something else. Then they'll mention something else,
(10:01):
and then they'll mention something else. They'll just shift from
one argument to the next. And it's not because they
believe in a single one of these arguments. It's all
in an effort to weaken your defenses. To them period
and the story. Now, let's do some more emails before
we do that, though, I want to touch again briefly
on this rear Admiral Buddha j Edge scandal from the
(10:24):
Department of Transportation, because Sean Duffy came out today and
said something. But speaking of hiring Americans, that's something that
you like, I hope I do. It's something that I
appreciate so much about Pure Talk. I'll tell you it's
not just that their CEO was a Vietnam veteran. It's
not just that they save me money. I like. Believe me,
(10:46):
I like that part. It's so nice to talk to
an American. Whenever I've had to get a hold of
Pure Talk, Hey I want a new phone, or I
want to add a line, or I want to do
this or do that. It's almost and I know this,
I talk about it for a living. It's almost a shock.
When they get on the phone and they speak English
and they understand English. They not only hire Americans, they
(11:07):
hire Americans right here in the USA. When you pick
up your phone and you dial pound two five zero
to switch your cell service to Puretalk, you not only
save money, you not only can get a new phone
or keep your phone. You get to speak to someone
who understands you. And maybe I'm just a mean old man.
(11:30):
I'm so tired of repeating myself on the friggin phone
dial pound two five zero and say Jesse Kelly and
reward an American company for American jobs. We'll be back.
He doesn't care if you believe him, but he's right.
Jesse Kelly. It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a
(11:55):
wonderful Tuesday. Remember you can email the show and you
should your love, your hate, your death threats, email or
ask doctor Jesse questions whatever into Jesse at Jesse kellyshow
dot com. So I mentioned this story a little bit
yesterday about Pete Bodha Judge, the rear admiral, and how
he took in all this money because he was head
(12:17):
of Department of Transportation and he used it on things
that are not okay. Listen to this. Why are you gee?
Oh sorry, that was the wrong one. Listen to this.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
Federal spending records and airline industry insiders are indicating that
Pete Buddha Judge failed and basically ignored all outdated air
traffic control systems which failed miserably in Newark earlier this year.
He basically ignored all of that, instead spending the money
that was allocated to his department on more than eighty
billion of it on diversity, equity and inclusion grants instead
(12:51):
of updating those old air traffic control systems. At least
half of the Department of Transportation's entire budget for a
typical fiscal year, programs such as Justice forty ended up
shelling out fifty five percent of around one hundred and
fifty billion dollars in infrastructure investments to disadvantaged communities.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
He spent half of his budget handing out money to
his political allies. Sean Duffy, current Transportation Secretary. That was Newsmax.
This is him, Sean Duffy.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
There wasn't a focus on building big, beautiful projects that
connect people. It was really about spending infrastructure money to
drive an ideological agenda, whether it be the green agenda
or the diversity, equity and inclusion agenda. And in the
end they've only hurt the American people because a lot
of when he was spent and there's not a lot
(13:45):
of deliverables for that money.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Just remember that voting for Democrats gets you this every
single time, every single time, because democrats are communists, and
that's what communists believe in. A communist tries for a
political office or a position like Department of Transportation, he
will work very hard to present a good face to you,
(14:10):
to lie to you about what he intends to do,
because he knows you don't want him doing what he's
about to do. But no matter what he says to you,
his intention is to grab that position of power, whatever
it is, and to use the power and money that
(14:30):
comes with that for the revolution. Chris, I want you
to grab me something Klaus Schwab when he talks about
shareholder capitalism versus stakeholder capitalism, and it's a bit of
a long audio cut, but we've brought it up before,
and you understand exactly. Chris understands exactly where I'm going
(14:51):
with this. What he lays out, and I'm going to
let him use his own words with his rear German accent,
but what he lays out is a plan. It doesn't
use these words, but it's essentially the communist plan to
take over corporate America. Oh, you have to go play play.
Speaker 5 (15:09):
We have state capitalism. On the other hand, we have
shareholder or private capitalism, so it's a clash between two systems.
I believe that state capitalism in the short term, in
the short term provides certain advantages because you can mobilize
(15:32):
in a concentrated way a lot of resources to reach
a specific objective. But I believe that's the future is
not state capitalism or shareholder capitalism. The future is what
I call stake hold capitalism, which is combined with the
(15:54):
social responsibility.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Stakeholder capitalism. What does that mean, Well, it means that
corporations shouldn't be used for profit to help the shareholders.
After all, we all have a stake. Everybody's a stakeholder,
even people not involved in the company. In the corporation
(16:19):
he mentioned it at the end, has a responsibility to everyone.
But what does all this flowery language mean. Allow me
to break it down for you. The Communists looked at
all the power and money in corporate America and said, wow,
we could use that for our revolution, and they started
to conquer corporate America. But they do this whereever they are.
(16:42):
Whatever the institution is. It could be a private institution,
it could be a government institution, it could be the
mayor's office, It could be the public library, it could
be a school teacher, it could be a corporate CEO,
it could be head of the Department of Transportation, it
could be the office of the President. And see whatever
power you are able to get your hands on. As
(17:04):
a communist, you don't think about what you should be
doing on behalf of your company, or your the library,
or your class or your country. Those thoughts never ever
ever enter your mind. You have been given power, power
that should be used for the revolution. How in the
world could anybody in their right mind justify using half
(17:27):
of the Department of Transportation budget on crazy cultural Marxist
things he would never consider doing Otherwise, what's the point
of being the head of the DOT and having this
power and having this huge budget if you can't use
it for the revolution? You ask why they would do
(17:48):
those things? I would argue if you asked that question,
you are naive to the fact he doesn't know any
other way. Your kids, for this great teacher has a
Black Lives Matter flag and tells your son he should
cut his penis off because she's not a teacher. She's
a revolutionary, a revolutionary who has access to legions of
(18:12):
children every year. She gets a new batch, and she's
going to use her power, whatever power she has, for
the revolution. That's how the communist thinks. Let's move off
of this and let's talk about AI and our power grid,
and this is about to be nerdy and wild and interesting.
Daniel Turner is going to join us to talk about
(18:32):
that next the Jesse Kelly Show on air and online
at Jesse kellyshow dot com. It is the Jesse Kelly
Show on a fantastic, wonderful Tuesday. And joining me now,
as promised, is my friend you know him well, Daniel Turner,
with Power the Future. First of all, Daniel, before we
(18:55):
get into your report and all that other stuff. An
Italian sub. There's a debate here in the Jesse Kelly
Show team whether an Italian sub should be hot and
toasty and melty, or whether you should eat it like
some kind of a barbarian cold. What say you, Well,
(19:15):
I think.
Speaker 6 (19:15):
You've biased my answer what with your language. But no,
a classic Italian sub I would eat. I would not
eat hot. I would eat it cold, like a chicken
palm sub, of course, like I want the cheese melted,
I want the chicken cutless hot, I want the sauce hot.
But if I'm doing like salami and mortadella and cheese
(19:38):
and you know, like the spicy like red pepper paste,
I want all that cold.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
So when you eat a cold Italian sub you say
to yourself, thank God, this cheese isn't melty? Is that
what you said?
Speaker 6 (19:55):
I mean, you can eat some cheese without it being melted,
right like you just eat a piece of cheese, like
with cheese and cracks, and not all cheese is melted.
Some cheese is good, firm and hard.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
You know what. I just want to move on. I
want to move on. Let's let's talk about your area
of expertise, because very clearly it's not Italian subs. I
want to talk about the report you just did. Go ahead,
you have the floor.
Speaker 6 (20:18):
But why are you eating our food anyway? You hate Italians?
You always talking about hell you can't have before we
go onto energy. You can't. You can't despise the culture
and and and then say you want to take the
food like you got to with the other jet.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Well, that's why I'm trying to improve. I'm trying to
help you people out. If you could warm up your subs,
maybe I'd warm up to you. Maybe it's on you
all right, focus on energy? What what did what report
did you put out? How bad are things? Or good
are things? No?
Speaker 6 (20:48):
Good? Things are good, but things are We have a
very bright future, but we got to do a lot
of stuff first. And the report that we put out,
which you can find on Howthfuture dot Com, is about
artificial intelligence and the few your energy needs that we
have for it. And this is some serious undertaking that
we have. Right, your average amount of electricity that we
(21:08):
use as a country needs to more than triple in
the next couple of years if we're going to power
all of these data centers. And what we're doing is
we're building these data centers left and right, and we're
not building the infrastructure to support them. So let's make
a comparison. Not sure where you and your listeners live,
but we all know about suburban sprawl, right that the
(21:29):
council gives permission to build eight thousand homes down this road.
It used to be a field and now there are
eight thousand homes. But you know what they never give
permission for is they don't widen the road, right, they
don't change the intersections. And then suddenly what used to
be a little country lane is now like a traffic jam,
and you scratch your head and say, what the hell
(21:50):
happened here? Like how is it such a disaster? And
it's a disaster because there was so much excitement about
building eight thousand homes, but building roads is boring, Building
sewer and water lines is boring. Electricity, Let's build the homes, right,
that's the exciting stuff. That's what we're doing with AI.
We're building data centers because there's so much money and
(22:11):
data and we want to be the AI capital. Texas
wants to be the AI capital. My home state of
Virginia wants to be the AI capital. Pennsylvania just had
that monster event last week with President Trump, but they
want to be the AI capital. So everybody wants AI
and data centers, but no one is building the boring
infrastructure part. And what that means is that eventually you
(22:33):
Texans are going to be stuck on that road in
bumper to bumper traffic saying wow, this is awful. Who
the hell's in charge? And why does my life suck?
Because this is what they did to us? And that's
what that's the scary future that we have unless our
elected officials start making some smarter decisions.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
I already say that to myself every day that I
come to work with Jewish producer Chris. But that's another
story entirely. Can can you help me explain before we
get onto the pa our portion of this as best
you can, Daniel, because you know I'm an idiot and
I don't know anything about technology. AI. I have an
understanding of what it is generally, and I understand it's
(23:11):
big and growing. I get all that. But how big
are we thinking this is going to be? Is it
going to be everywhere? What do we think this is
going to be?
Speaker 6 (23:24):
I think for those of us of a certain age,
which I know you are, because you remember life without
the internet, right, I mean it was coming about when
you were a kid, as I was a kid. But
we do remember a time before we went online. We
remember a time that our parents said they went to
the travel agent because they wanted to buy a ticket,
right before we shopped online. There was that beginning of
(23:49):
the Internet. There's that funny video of Katie Kuric and
Brian Gumbele on The Today Show and they're saying, what
is internet? Can someone explain what internet is?
Speaker 5 (23:59):
No?
Speaker 6 (23:59):
One knew what the head it was. But those people
who did, who were all multi billionaires, now those are
the Bill Gateses of the world, right. They knew what
it was going to be and they tapped into it,
and now we all know what the Internet is. That's
exactly where we are with AI. We know kind of
have an idea, we're not positive, but those people who
(24:19):
know know how big it is going to get. And
that's why these stocks, like in Nvidia, that's why these
governors are trying to get the AI in their area first,
because they want to dominate this market and make a
lot of money.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Okay, so help me explain. Let's say I'm Governor Greg
Abbot of Texas, not a fan, but that doesn't matter
for the purpose of this question. Let's say I'm Governor
Greg Abbot of Texas and I want AI in Texas.
If it's going to strain my power grid, of which
it sounds like you're saying it's going to huge, what
does it benefit me, Governor Abbot of Texas, to want
(24:56):
it here?
Speaker 6 (24:58):
Because the companies that are building these data centers, like
Microsoft or like that monster Tesla facility that is I
think it's outside of Austin. I'm not positive where it
is in Texas. That is all money, right, These data
centers have to be built, so they are buying land,
so landowners want it. They are buying enormous amounts of
(25:19):
construction material, so construction companies want it. And then they're
paying premiums to the state. Right, they are our residents,
and so they are paying enormous corporate taxes, and so
the state is making a fortune and they don't have
all the people. And that's the one advantage of it
over regular construction.
Speaker 4 (25:37):
Right.
Speaker 6 (25:38):
If Amazon wants to build a fulfillment center in town,
big huge monster building, but there are trucks coming in
and out and thousands of people coming in and out,
and you can see how the residents are like, I
don't want this fulfillment center down the block for me.
It's going to be a monster traffic AI data center.
Once the construction's done and all those computers are hooked up,
(26:00):
what are there, like just two nerds who are making
sure the lights stay on right, so you don't get
all of the traffic footprint. And that's actually very attractive
for communities. But your average data center is the equivalent
of one hundred thousand homes in terms of electricity and
in terms of water. So, my beloved Governor Jnkin, who
(26:21):
I have a problem with as well, has bragged about
how a third of the AI data centers in America
are now in Virginia. We have added twenty three million people,
the equivalent of twenty three million people in terms of
water consumption and electricity consumption to Virginia and done absolutely
no upgrades.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
And so sorry, I may end up keeping you on
it if you have time, because I love questions. But
why do these AI data centers use so much water?
You said, there are two people there that they both
have digestive problems.
Speaker 6 (26:55):
What's the deal cooling centers? Because these machines generated a
lot of heat and they use it for for cooling purposes,
and so like these centers are the like the the
air conditioning UH and the cooling of the water towers
is very very cold rooms, and it uses a tremendous
(27:17):
amount of water, a huge amounts of water, like I said,
the equivalent of one hundred thousand homes.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
Okay, I asked it because I know water is at
least in some many parts of the country in short supply.
And states are trying to figure out how to get that.
Can we use salt water?
Speaker 6 (27:34):
So no, because salt water corrodes, So it's it's it's
fresh water now. I mean, if I were president, I
would be I would be building huge desalination plants like
you see in Israel. But that's you know, that's another conversation.
But everyone on the coast, I would be building them
left and right. I'd be building huge pipelines from the rockies, uh,
(27:56):
and and be. I'd be very concerned about water on
a net level. But again those are boring. Who wants
to talk about water. We want to talk about building,
and so that's where we do as we focus all
on these exciting new things, and the boring infrastructure part
is what gets left aside. We had not a lot
of rain last year, and where I am in rurald Virginia,
(28:19):
this year, we've had a ton this year. It has
rained non friggin stop. Last year hardly any rain. Everyone said, wow,
we're also when a drought, rivers are drying. It was like, well, maybe,
but also we have the equivalent of twenty three million
additional Virginians consuming water. With all the data centers we
have built. Has anyone factored that into Why Wow, my
(28:41):
pond looks really low? Wow, my stream is really low? Yeah,
because it's all connected and the data centers are getting
priority about that.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
He is Daniel Turner with Power of the Future. We're
going to be right back as I have questions about
what makes up our power grid, what do we need
for this AI stuff? Competing with other countries. I'm totally
nerding on this. I'm going to be so technologically smart
after this. Chris, don't shake your head. I'll be smarter
than you are. I'm already smart enough to take relief Factor.
Do you actually Chris already does? I forgot that didn't
(29:12):
work what I just said, because Chris already takes relief Factor.
You know when you have pain, you know that relief
Factor can take it away. I'm talking about chronic pain
sucks to live with it, doesn't it. Soul sucking is
what it is. It's just brutal. You don't have to
live like that, and you don't have to take things
(29:34):
that wreck your body to mask it. Well, I just
have another one of these, and my kidneys will eventually
just liquify. Relief Factor is one hundred percent drug free.
It's a supplement. I swear it's freaking miraculous. It was
developed by doctors. You take it every day. The longer
you take it, it builds up in your system, the better
it works. They sell you three weeks of it for
(29:57):
nineteen ninety five, and they say, hey, call back if
you want more. Something like seventy percent of the people
call back for more. Get rid of your pain relief
factor dot Com or call one eight hundred the number
four relief. We'll be back the Jesse Kelly Show. It's
still real to me, damit. The rnstacks it is the
(30:24):
Jesse Kelly Show. Back with just a couple more questions
for Daniel Turner. Power the Future. Okay, so you guys
put out a report Power the Future dot Com. You
put out a report that we need more juice, We
need more power because AI is coming. We have big
data centers. I guess my big questions are where are
we getting our power now? And where are we going
(30:47):
to get three times the power we currently have to
power these friggin things.
Speaker 6 (30:53):
En dollar question right there, right now. If in real
time I am looking at Urcott, which is the Texas
Utility Commission, I'm looking at their website, and right now,
I will tell you exactly where your electricity is coming from,
and half of it is coming from wind and solar.
So the environmentalists will celebrate and see, look how great
it is. Texas half of its electricity is coming from
(31:16):
wind and solar. I don't know if that's good or bad.
I do know that Texas has spent over one hundred
billion dollars to get this system up and running. They
haven't spent a dime on fossil fuels, because fossil fuels
are the ones who pay the taxes. I also know
that Texas's utility rates have gone up around thirty percent,
(31:36):
way higher and way faster than the average American utility rate,
so it does come at a cost. I also know
that you have sacrificed hundreds of thousands of acres of
land to build these stupid solar and wind farms. So yeah,
you can point to the fifty percent of our electricity
comes from wind and solar. But at what cost? Is
(31:57):
life better for Texans right now? I would say it's
more expensive. And I just looked online. It's only ninety
six degrees in Houston.
Speaker 5 (32:05):
Now that's hot.
Speaker 6 (32:06):
But it also in July, in late July and Houston
it can be one hundred and ten. So you're also
just kind of celebrating the fact that it's not as
hot as it could be. And I got to tell you, Jesse,
that's not a great way to run a state like well,
at least it's not as hot as it could be.
Thank goodness, we're not in a heat wave and the
grid survives. So is that how we see the future, Like,
(32:29):
let's roll the dice and pray the wind blows, Pray
it's sunny, and pray it's not too hot. I think
that's a pretty awful way to treat your constituents when
you're charging them thirty percent more for their utility than
they should already be paying.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
So if a red state like Texas has already succumbed
to this insanity, and you're one hundred percent right about
the thirty percent increase in power bill, we get mad
about ours every single month. So if a red state
like Texas is shifting away to crappy power that doesn't
work and it's more expensive at the same time, we
need to be tripling our power supply in this country.
(33:04):
That sounds to me like we're heading towards the cliff.
Speaker 6 (33:07):
It does. And I think that's why it was so
important in this one big, beautiful bill, despite it being
far from perfect, is that it ended the subsidies for
wind and solar, which people were went bonkers over because
as long as government is giving out free money, why
don't we all build a solar farm? Right if the
government's paying you, sure, I'll be in the solar business,
I'll be in the wind business. And so getting rid
(33:30):
of those subsidies will force this industry to stand on
its own two feet. At the same time, it's going
to mean these industries are going to make life even
more expensive for Texans because the federal government isn't picking
up the tab anymore. Right, the Biden administration knew that
Republicans just as much as Democrats, like free crap from Washington, DC,
(33:50):
and a lot of Republicans were suckered in from with
free crap. But that's not the way we can run
our country. Lord knows the cue. We can't run our industry,
our energy industry, this way. And it's also I think
why the President and his energy team have emphasized fossil
fuels and they've emphasized nuclear and you've seen executive orders
(34:10):
on all of these areas because they have small footprints,
they are reliable, they don't depend upon the weather, and
we have them an abundant supply and they don't require
tax dollars to keep them afloat. So if we want more,
we need to build more. Reopen every cold plant Texas
has shuttered. I think seven enormous coal plants in the
(34:32):
last five years. Tell Greg Abbott to turn them back
on if they haven't been dismantled. Just put the things
back online and where do you see how your electricity
bills fall? That requires a lot of political will, and
Greens are paying the governor to not put them back online.
Of course climate change, but that's just a load of craft.
All it is is that they're in the wind and
(34:53):
solar business and they want the business.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
Now, do you at least put banana peppers on your
Italian sub? I mean you do? Okay, that's something, well,
that's something he is Daniel Turner, Power the Future. Thank you,
my friend. I appreciate you very much. God bless you.
Speaker 5 (35:10):
Jesse.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
Hey, Chris, are banana peppers kosher? I want to ask
before I said they are okay? Well, I don't know
have you ever have you ever had one on a pizza?
What do you mean you don't like banana peppers? Yes,
they do taste good. It's one of the best peppers
out there. Corey, you like banana peppers. Of course, Corey
likes banana Who doesn't like banana peppers? Are they too
(35:34):
hot for you? That's probably what it is. That's probably
what it is. Banana peppers are too hot for Jewish
producer Chris and now we just exposed him here on
the show. Speaking of Chris, if I talk to you
about gold, about buying gold from gold Co, you know,
the debt crisis is here, Inflation hasn't gone away as
(35:57):
you as you already know. What do you think might
happen when the tariffs come down? You think there may
be some problems, or when something else comes out, a
new war, a new this, a new that. That's always something.
How do you make sure your retirement will be there?
Gold or silver? I don't care. I honestly don't care
(36:18):
about the color. Gold doesn't impress me. What doest impress
me is I could put you in a time machine
and fly you back a thousand years ago, and if
you had gold, you would have tremendous value thousand years
in the future, tremendous value. It outlasts nations and always will.
Our entire country will be gone, and your gold and
(36:40):
silver will still have value. Let Gold Code get some
in your retirement. They know what they're doing. You don't
have to know what you're doing. I don't know how
to do what they do. Let them get you some
physical gold and silver. Maybe you're wondering can I trust
this company? Well, the Better Business Bureau gives them an
A plus rating. Why do you think that is eight
(37:01):
five five eight one seven gold. I trusted them with
my money eight five five eight one seven gold. Or
go to Jesse likesgold dot com. All right, we have
a final hour and we're gonna churn through a bunch
of emails during this final hour. Remember Jesse at Jesse
Kelly Show is the email address.
Speaker 5 (37:23):
We have.
Speaker 1 (37:25):
Maybe some more trouble on the horizon in Iran, and
it was pretty much predictable, but looks like trouble may
be coming sooner rather than later. Let's talk about that
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. We've got about half hour from now,
we have Daniel Turner coming on. He's going to talk
about the AI data centers and the power grid and
(00:33):
what it means. I'm totally nerding out on this, fascinated
by this whole thing. Maybe you'll find it boring, maybe
you'll geek out with me on it, but I want
to know what's coming and why it's coming. So that's
coming up about a half hour from now. We'll do
some emails. But before I get to that, I'm not
going to spend a lot of time on this, but
I'm going to touch on this briefly. There's something I
(00:55):
haven't quite figured out. I can see it. It's very
odd to me, and I haven't figured out the why
behind it. And that thing is Democrats in their use
of the F word, their public use it's not only
the F word, their public use of profanity. And before
(01:19):
I go into this, I just want to be clear
that I am obviously no saint whatsoever. I'm not sitting
here preaching to you about something. I've used more potty
words in my life than I ever should have. Okay,
I'm not encouraging you to ever do so. I just
want to be clear that I'm not moralizing against it.
(01:42):
But when I see patterns, when I see patterns, I
start looking for why. Remember remember, for instance, remember when
Trump about the Epstein stuff, all of a sudden started
coming out saying, shut up and move on, you idiot.
Shut up and move on, you idiot. He said it
several times, and that's when I predicted they're going to
leak something. Why did I predict that correctly? Because I
(02:05):
noticed a pattern. Donald Trump says the same thing several
days in a row. Why. It makes me ask why so?
Hunter Biden recently sat down for an interview, and I
realized it's Hunter Biden. It needs a crackhead and it's
a nut job. But tell me if you notice anything
with this little clip number one.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
I agree with Quentin Tarantino. George Clooney is not an actor.
He is a like I don't know what he is.
He's a brand. And by the way, and God bless him,
you know what. He fuzzily treats his friends really well,
you know, what I mean, buys them things. And he's
got a really great place in Lake Como, and he's
great friends with Barack Obama. You what do you have
(02:46):
to do with anything? Why do I have to listen
to you?
Speaker 1 (02:49):
What we got it? Believe me? It goes on and
on and on, beep beep, beep, beep beep. The Toughel.
I'm not just picking on Hunter Biden. Elected Democrats, elected Democrats, senators,
member of members of the House. Where I never saw
(03:09):
this before, ever out of either party ever, will now
regularly talk like this in public. Is to understand enough.
Speaker 3 (03:16):
About the Constitution to the extent that I'm the one
that's supposed to make a decision or at least get
a both.
Speaker 1 (03:22):
If you could speak directly to Elon Musk, what would
you say. It's not just young ones either, it's older ones.
There's a pattern happening. Stephen Colbert. Stephen Colbert on his
show last night, that filthy communist who got his show canceled,
and then Trump hilariously made fun of him for it.
National television CBS said this.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
On Friday, Donald Trump posted, I absolutely love that Colbert
got fired.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
His talent was even less than his ratings.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
How dare you, sir, would an untalented man be able
to compose the following satirical witticism Go.
Speaker 1 (04:05):
Yourself, comedic genius John Stewart. This is from not the
Bee sings the F word for a full minute to
react to Colbert's show getting canceled. I I am not
even sure I should have done this little segment because
I don't have an actual answer. But something is happening
(04:28):
and I can't figure out why. When all the animals
start speaking the same way, doing the same thing, there
is a reason for it. I don't know whether this
is this is what I suspect. Okay, this is just
a suspicion. I don't know. Democrats understand. Multiple Democrats have
(04:49):
come out and explained that normal people, working class people
have left them. They are now the party of the rich,
urban elite. They just are. If you are in a rich,
urban elite population center, that's going to be heavily Democratic.
But anywhere outside of that, working people, even unions, are
(05:11):
leaving the Democrat Party in droves. They know, they know
they have a problem there. They don't know how to
fix it. So when you're Dome and you're running for president,
and you roll tim walls out there to try to
get make sure white people don't think you hate them
as much as you very clearly do. And he goes
hunting and can't seem to put rounds in a shotgun
(05:33):
put you. It was embarrassing. It was embarrassing, but it's
clear what they were doing. Hey, normal guy, I'm not
a dirty communist to hate you. Look at me fezen hunting.
It was embarrassing. I think maybe in kind of an
ugly bit of a crass fashion, I think maybe this
(05:54):
renewed use of a bunch of potty words by elected
officials and power or people. I think maybe it's an
effort to let construction guy know, to let union guy
know that, hey, I still care about you, and if
you can't drive that home with your policies and every
single day you're explaining why white people suck, you'd try
(06:18):
to do that by saying a F word, because you
assume he says the F word when he's out there
working asphalt. That's my suspicion. I don't know that that's true,
but I know this. I'm only forty four, I swear.
I know I may look sixty four, but I'm forty
four years old. Never in my childhood and for most
(06:41):
of my adult life, do I remember a politician saying
a cuss word in public? And if they did, it
was always ah, and it wasn't even a super bad one.
They might get caught saying it privately, they might get
quoted saying it privately, because they're human beings, and human
beings say things when they stub their toe, Not that
I would ever do something like that, but publicly, they'll
(07:05):
put these things out on social media. Publicly, I'm not
sure I know why. Anyway, let's do some emails tonight,
shall we, Doctor Jesse. Too often we hear the argument
that illegal immigrants are needed as farm and hospitality workers.
Those working in these fields have already been here for decades.
Why do we suddenly need twenty million more people? It's
(07:30):
not the Democrats think we need farm workers and people
to pick the strawberries. Remember what I tell you about communists,
how they use your values against you because they don't
have values, none that you would recognize. That gives them
complete freedom, complete moral freedom to take whatever values you
(07:52):
have and use it against you. However, they don't share
your values, so they may think they know what your
values are, but they can't ever be shorts. They don't
share them, right, they don't share them. So what do
you do if I'm trying to use your values against
you and I don't share your values, so I don't
(08:13):
share your heart, what do I do? Well, I try
a bunch of different things. If I if I can't
quote the Bible to you, hey, Jesus said, if I can't.
If I try that and it doesn't work, okay, well
dang it. I thought that was gonna work, I'll move on.
And you see Democrats with almost every single issue, when
(08:33):
they're losing on one, they'll try this the we need
people to clean the hotel rooms and pick our strawberries
for us. That's not because they care about any of
those things. That's an effort to get it home to you.
It's it's not only a hey don't you like strawberries?
It's an also it's also there's a little threat built
(08:56):
into there, Hey don't you like strawberries? And if we
don't don't have Pedro doing it, you're gonna be out
there in the fields breaking your back. Do you want
to have to go break your back in the fields?
Of course you don't just let Pedro do it and
all of his friends. That's the message. It's a message
trying to use your values against you, trying to sell
(09:17):
you on why you want cheap strawberries, while at the
same time a little threat builds in. You don't want
to clean hotel rooms, do you? As if that's something
we can't do. That's the first job my sister ever
had was cleaning hotel rooms. As if American citizens of
every color can't pick strawberries or don't know how to
work physically or work with their hands. That's crazy. But
(09:39):
that's all it is. None of it is based on
facts or reality or how they really feel on something.
Everything is an effort to weaken your defenses. Whatever way
they can do it, they will do it. If they
quote the Bible and it doesn't work, they'll move on
to mention the strawberries. If that doesn't work, they'll move
on to mention something else. Then they'll mention something else,
(10:01):
and then they'll mention something else. They'll just shift from
one argument to the next. And it's not because they
believe in a single one of these arguments. It's all
in an effort to weaken your defenses. To them period
and the story. Now, let's do some more emails before
we do that, though, I want to touch again briefly
on this rear Admiral Buddha j Edge scandal from the
(10:24):
Department of Transportation, because Sean Duffy came out today and
said something. But speaking of hiring Americans, that's something that
you like, I hope I do. It's something that I
appreciate so much about Pure Talk. I'll tell you it's
not just that their CEO was a Vietnam veteran. It's
not just that they save me money. I like. Believe me,
(10:46):
I like that part. It's so nice to talk to
an American. Whenever I've had to get a hold of
Pure Talk, Hey I want a new phone, or I
want to add a line, or I want to do
this or do that. It's almost and I know this,
I talk about it for a living. It's almost a shock.
When they get on the phone and they speak English
and they understand English. They not only hire Americans, they
(11:07):
hire Americans right here in the USA. When you pick
up your phone and you dial pound two five zero
to switch your cell service to Puretalk, you not only
save money, you not only can get a new phone
or keep your phone. You get to speak to someone
who understands you. And maybe I'm just a mean old man.
(11:30):
I'm so tired of repeating myself on the friggin phone
dial pound two five zero and say Jesse Kelly and
reward an American company for American jobs. We'll be back.
He doesn't care if you believe him, but he's right.
Jesse Kelly. It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a
(11:55):
wonderful Tuesday. Remember you can email the show and you
should your love, your hate, your death threats, email or
ask doctor Jesse questions whatever into Jesse at Jesse kellyshow
dot com. So I mentioned this story a little bit
yesterday about Pete Bodha Judge, the rear admiral, and how
he took in all this money because he was head
(12:17):
of Department of Transportation and he used it on things
that are not okay. Listen to this. Why are you gee?
Oh sorry, that was the wrong one. Listen to this.
Speaker 3 (12:27):
Federal spending records and airline industry insiders are indicating that
Pete Buddha Judge failed and basically ignored all outdated air
traffic control systems which failed miserably in Newark earlier this year.
He basically ignored all of that, instead spending the money
that was allocated to his department on more than eighty
billion of it on diversity, equity and inclusion grants instead
(12:51):
of updating those old air traffic control systems. At least
half of the Department of Transportation's entire budget for a
typical fiscal year, programs such as Justice forty ended up
shelling out fifty five percent of around one hundred and
fifty billion dollars in infrastructure investments to disadvantaged communities.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
He spent half of his budget handing out money to
his political allies. Sean Duffy, current Transportation Secretary. That was Newsmax.
This is him, Sean Duffy.
Speaker 4 (13:25):
There wasn't a focus on building big, beautiful projects that
connect people. It was really about spending infrastructure money to
drive an ideological agenda, whether it be the green agenda
or the diversity, equity and inclusion agenda. And in the
end they've only hurt the American people because a lot
of when he was spent and there's not a lot
(13:45):
of deliverables for that money.
Speaker 1 (13:48):
Just remember that voting for Democrats gets you this every
single time, every single time, because democrats are communists, and
that's what communists believe in. A communist tries for a
political office or a position like Department of Transportation, he
will work very hard to present a good face to you,
(14:10):
to lie to you about what he intends to do,
because he knows you don't want him doing what he's
about to do. But no matter what he says to you,
his intention is to grab that position of power, whatever
it is, and to use the power and money that
(14:30):
comes with that for the revolution. Chris, I want you
to grab me something Klaus Schwab when he talks about
shareholder capitalism versus stakeholder capitalism, and it's a bit of
a long audio cut, but we've brought it up before,
and you understand exactly. Chris understands exactly where I'm going
(14:51):
with this. What he lays out, and I'm going to
let him use his own words with his rear German accent,
but what he lays out is a plan. It doesn't
use these words, but it's essentially the communist plan to
take over corporate America. Oh, you have to go play play.
Speaker 5 (15:09):
We have state capitalism. On the other hand, we have
shareholder or private capitalism, so it's a clash between two systems.
I believe that state capitalism in the short term, in
the short term provides certain advantages because you can mobilize
(15:32):
in a concentrated way a lot of resources to reach
a specific objective. But I believe that's the future is
not state capitalism or shareholder capitalism. The future is what
I call stake hold capitalism, which is combined with the
(15:54):
social responsibility.
Speaker 1 (15:57):
Stakeholder capitalism. What does that mean, Well, it means that
corporations shouldn't be used for profit to help the shareholders.
After all, we all have a stake. Everybody's a stakeholder,
even people not involved in the company. In the corporation
(16:19):
he mentioned it at the end, has a responsibility to everyone.
But what does all this flowery language mean. Allow me
to break it down for you. The Communists looked at
all the power and money in corporate America and said, wow,
we could use that for our revolution, and they started
to conquer corporate America. But they do this whereever they are.
(16:42):
Whatever the institution is. It could be a private institution,
it could be a government institution, it could be the
mayor's office, It could be the public library, it could
be a school teacher, it could be a corporate CEO,
it could be head of the Department of Transportation, it
could be the office of the President. And see whatever
power you are able to get your hands on. As
(17:04):
a communist, you don't think about what you should be
doing on behalf of your company, or your the library,
or your class or your country. Those thoughts never ever
ever enter your mind. You have been given power, power
that should be used for the revolution. How in the
world could anybody in their right mind justify using half
(17:27):
of the Department of Transportation budget on crazy cultural Marxist
things he would never consider doing Otherwise, what's the point
of being the head of the DOT and having this
power and having this huge budget if you can't use
it for the revolution? You ask why they would do
(17:48):
those things? I would argue if you asked that question,
you are naive to the fact he doesn't know any
other way. Your kids, for this great teacher has a
Black Lives Matter flag and tells your son he should
cut his penis off because she's not a teacher. She's
a revolutionary, a revolutionary who has access to legions of
(18:12):
children every year. She gets a new batch, and she's
going to use her power, whatever power she has, for
the revolution. That's how the communist thinks. Let's move off
of this and let's talk about AI and our power grid,
and this is about to be nerdy and wild and interesting.
Daniel Turner is going to join us to talk about
(18:32):
that next the Jesse Kelly Show on air and online
at Jesse kellyshow dot com. It is the Jesse Kelly
Show on a fantastic, wonderful Tuesday. And joining me now,
as promised, is my friend you know him well, Daniel Turner,
with Power the Future. First of all, Daniel, before we
(18:55):
get into your report and all that other stuff. An
Italian sub. There's a debate here in the Jesse Kelly
Show team whether an Italian sub should be hot and
toasty and melty, or whether you should eat it like
some kind of a barbarian cold. What say you, Well,
(19:15):
I think.
Speaker 6 (19:15):
You've biased my answer what with your language. But no,
a classic Italian sub I would eat. I would not
eat hot. I would eat it cold, like a chicken
palm sub, of course, like I want the cheese melted,
I want the chicken cutless hot, I want the sauce hot.
But if I'm doing like salami and mortadella and cheese
(19:38):
and you know, like the spicy like red pepper paste,
I want all that cold.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
So when you eat a cold Italian sub you say
to yourself, thank God, this cheese isn't melty? Is that
what you said?
Speaker 6 (19:55):
I mean, you can eat some cheese without it being melted,
right like you just eat a piece of cheese, like
with cheese and cracks, and not all cheese is melted.
Some cheese is good, firm and hard.
Speaker 1 (20:07):
You know what. I just want to move on. I
want to move on. Let's let's talk about your area
of expertise, because very clearly it's not Italian subs. I
want to talk about the report you just did. Go ahead,
you have the floor.
Speaker 6 (20:18):
But why are you eating our food anyway? You hate Italians?
You always talking about hell you can't have before we
go onto energy. You can't. You can't despise the culture
and and and then say you want to take the
food like you got to with the other jet.
Speaker 1 (20:32):
Well, that's why I'm trying to improve. I'm trying to
help you people out. If you could warm up your subs,
maybe I'd warm up to you. Maybe it's on you
all right, focus on energy? What what did what report
did you put out? How bad are things? Or good
are things? No?
Speaker 6 (20:48):
Good? Things are good, but things are We have a
very bright future, but we got to do a lot
of stuff first. And the report that we put out,
which you can find on Howthfuture dot Com, is about
artificial intelligence and the few your energy needs that we
have for it. And this is some serious undertaking that
we have. Right, your average amount of electricity that we
(21:08):
use as a country needs to more than triple in
the next couple of years if we're going to power
all of these data centers. And what we're doing is
we're building these data centers left and right, and we're
not building the infrastructure to support them. So let's make
a comparison. Not sure where you and your listeners live,
but we all know about suburban sprawl, right that the
(21:29):
council gives permission to build eight thousand homes down this road.
It used to be a field and now there are
eight thousand homes. But you know what they never give
permission for is they don't widen the road, right, they
don't change the intersections. And then suddenly what used to
be a little country lane is now like a traffic jam,
and you scratch your head and say, what the hell
(21:50):
happened here? Like how is it such a disaster? And
it's a disaster because there was so much excitement about
building eight thousand homes, but building roads is boring, Building
sewer and water lines is boring. Electricity, Let's build the homes, right,
that's the exciting stuff. That's what we're doing with AI.
We're building data centers because there's so much money and
(22:11):
data and we want to be the AI capital. Texas
wants to be the AI capital. My home state of
Virginia wants to be the AI capital. Pennsylvania just had
that monster event last week with President Trump, but they
want to be the AI capital. So everybody wants AI
and data centers, but no one is building the boring
infrastructure part. And what that means is that eventually you
(22:33):
Texans are going to be stuck on that road in
bumper to bumper traffic saying wow, this is awful. Who
the hell's in charge? And why does my life suck?
Because this is what they did to us? And that's
what that's the scary future that we have unless our
elected officials start making some smarter decisions.
Speaker 1 (22:51):
I already say that to myself every day that I
come to work with Jewish producer Chris. But that's another
story entirely. Can can you help me explain before we
get onto the pa our portion of this as best
you can, Daniel, because you know I'm an idiot and
I don't know anything about technology. AI. I have an
understanding of what it is generally, and I understand it's
(23:11):
big and growing. I get all that. But how big
are we thinking this is going to be? Is it
going to be everywhere? What do we think this is
going to be?
Speaker 6 (23:24):
I think for those of us of a certain age,
which I know you are, because you remember life without
the internet, right, I mean it was coming about when
you were a kid, as I was a kid. But
we do remember a time before we went online. We
remember a time that our parents said they went to
the travel agent because they wanted to buy a ticket,
right before we shopped online. There was that beginning of
(23:49):
the Internet. There's that funny video of Katie Kuric and
Brian Gumbele on The Today Show and they're saying, what
is internet? Can someone explain what internet is?
Speaker 5 (23:59):
No?
Speaker 6 (23:59):
One knew what the head it was. But those people
who did, who were all multi billionaires, now those are
the Bill Gateses of the world, right. They knew what
it was going to be and they tapped into it,
and now we all know what the Internet is. That's
exactly where we are with AI. We know kind of
have an idea, we're not positive, but those people who
(24:19):
know know how big it is going to get. And
that's why these stocks, like in Nvidia, that's why these
governors are trying to get the AI in their area first,
because they want to dominate this market and make a
lot of money.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Okay, so help me explain. Let's say I'm Governor Greg
Abbot of Texas, not a fan, but that doesn't matter
for the purpose of this question. Let's say I'm Governor
Greg Abbot of Texas and I want AI in Texas.
If it's going to strain my power grid, of which
it sounds like you're saying it's going to huge, what
does it benefit me, Governor Abbot of Texas, to want
(24:56):
it here?
Speaker 6 (24:58):
Because the companies that are building these data centers, like
Microsoft or like that monster Tesla facility that is I
think it's outside of Austin. I'm not positive where it
is in Texas. That is all money, right, These data
centers have to be built, so they are buying land,
so landowners want it. They are buying enormous amounts of
(25:19):
construction material, so construction companies want it. And then they're
paying premiums to the state. Right, they are our residents,
and so they are paying enormous corporate taxes, and so
the state is making a fortune and they don't have
all the people. And that's the one advantage of it
over regular construction.
Speaker 4 (25:37):
Right.
Speaker 6 (25:38):
If Amazon wants to build a fulfillment center in town,
big huge monster building, but there are trucks coming in
and out and thousands of people coming in and out,
and you can see how the residents are like, I
don't want this fulfillment center down the block for me.
It's going to be a monster traffic AI data center.
Once the construction's done and all those computers are hooked up,
(26:00):
what are there, like just two nerds who are making
sure the lights stay on right, so you don't get
all of the traffic footprint. And that's actually very attractive
for communities. But your average data center is the equivalent
of one hundred thousand homes in terms of electricity and
in terms of water. So, my beloved Governor Jnkin, who
(26:21):
I have a problem with as well, has bragged about
how a third of the AI data centers in America
are now in Virginia. We have added twenty three million people,
the equivalent of twenty three million people in terms of
water consumption and electricity consumption to Virginia and done absolutely
no upgrades.
Speaker 1 (26:42):
And so sorry, I may end up keeping you on
it if you have time, because I love questions. But
why do these AI data centers use so much water?
You said, there are two people there that they both
have digestive problems.
Speaker 6 (26:55):
What's the deal cooling centers? Because these machines generated a
lot of heat and they use it for for cooling purposes,
and so like these centers are the like the the
air conditioning UH and the cooling of the water towers
is very very cold rooms, and it uses a tremendous
(27:17):
amount of water, a huge amounts of water, like I said,
the equivalent of one hundred thousand homes.
Speaker 1 (27:23):
Okay, I asked it because I know water is at
least in some many parts of the country in short supply.
And states are trying to figure out how to get that.
Can we use salt water?
Speaker 6 (27:34):
So no, because salt water corrodes, So it's it's it's
fresh water now. I mean, if I were president, I
would be I would be building huge desalination plants like
you see in Israel. But that's you know, that's another conversation.
But everyone on the coast, I would be building them
left and right. I'd be building huge pipelines from the rockies, uh,
(27:56):
and and be. I'd be very concerned about water on
a net level. But again those are boring. Who wants
to talk about water. We want to talk about building,
and so that's where we do as we focus all
on these exciting new things, and the boring infrastructure part
is what gets left aside. We had not a lot
of rain last year, and where I am in rurald Virginia,
(28:19):
this year, we've had a ton this year. It has
rained non friggin stop. Last year hardly any rain. Everyone said, wow,
we're also when a drought, rivers are drying. It was like, well, maybe,
but also we have the equivalent of twenty three million
additional Virginians consuming water. With all the data centers we
have built. Has anyone factored that into Why Wow, my
(28:41):
pond looks really low? Wow, my stream is really low? Yeah,
because it's all connected and the data centers are getting
priority about that.
Speaker 1 (28:49):
He is Daniel Turner with Power of the Future. We're
going to be right back as I have questions about
what makes up our power grid, what do we need
for this AI stuff? Competing with other countries. I'm totally
nerding on this. I'm going to be so technologically smart
after this. Chris, don't shake your head. I'll be smarter
than you are. I'm already smart enough to take relief Factor.
Do you actually Chris already does? I forgot that didn't
(29:12):
work what I just said, because Chris already takes relief Factor.
You know when you have pain, you know that relief
Factor can take it away. I'm talking about chronic pain
sucks to live with it, doesn't it. Soul sucking is
what it is. It's just brutal. You don't have to
live like that, and you don't have to take things
(29:34):
that wreck your body to mask it. Well, I just
have another one of these, and my kidneys will eventually
just liquify. Relief Factor is one hundred percent drug free.
It's a supplement. I swear it's freaking miraculous. It was
developed by doctors. You take it every day. The longer
you take it, it builds up in your system, the better
it works. They sell you three weeks of it for
(29:57):
nineteen ninety five, and they say, hey, call back if
you want more. Something like seventy percent of the people
call back for more. Get rid of your pain relief
factor dot Com or call one eight hundred the number
four relief. We'll be back the Jesse Kelly Show. It's
still real to me, damit. The rnstacks it is the
(30:24):
Jesse Kelly Show. Back with just a couple more questions
for Daniel Turner. Power the Future. Okay, so you guys
put out a report Power the Future dot Com. You
put out a report that we need more juice, We
need more power because AI is coming. We have big
data centers. I guess my big questions are where are
we getting our power now? And where are we going
(30:47):
to get three times the power we currently have to
power these friggin things.
Speaker 6 (30:53):
En dollar question right there, right now. If in real
time I am looking at Urcott, which is the Texas
Utility Commission, I'm looking at their website, and right now,
I will tell you exactly where your electricity is coming from,
and half of it is coming from wind and solar.
So the environmentalists will celebrate and see, look how great
it is. Texas half of its electricity is coming from
(31:16):
wind and solar. I don't know if that's good or bad.
I do know that Texas has spent over one hundred
billion dollars to get this system up and running. They
haven't spent a dime on fossil fuels, because fossil fuels
are the ones who pay the taxes. I also know
that Texas's utility rates have gone up around thirty percent,
(31:36):
way higher and way faster than the average American utility rate,
so it does come at a cost. I also know
that you have sacrificed hundreds of thousands of acres of
land to build these stupid solar and wind farms. So yeah,
you can point to the fifty percent of our electricity
comes from wind and solar. But at what cost? Is
(31:57):
life better for Texans right now? I would say it's
more expensive. And I just looked online. It's only ninety
six degrees in Houston.
Speaker 5 (32:05):
Now that's hot.
Speaker 6 (32:06):
But it also in July, in late July and Houston
it can be one hundred and ten. So you're also
just kind of celebrating the fact that it's not as
hot as it could be. And I got to tell you, Jesse,
that's not a great way to run a state like well,
at least it's not as hot as it could be.
Thank goodness, we're not in a heat wave and the
grid survives. So is that how we see the future, Like,
(32:29):
let's roll the dice and pray the wind blows, Pray
it's sunny, and pray it's not too hot. I think
that's a pretty awful way to treat your constituents when
you're charging them thirty percent more for their utility than
they should already be paying.
Speaker 1 (32:44):
So if a red state like Texas has already succumbed
to this insanity, and you're one hundred percent right about
the thirty percent increase in power bill, we get mad
about ours every single month. So if a red state
like Texas is shifting away to crappy power that doesn't
work and it's more expensive at the same time, we
need to be tripling our power supply in this country.
(33:04):
That sounds to me like we're heading towards the cliff.
Speaker 6 (33:07):
It does. And I think that's why it was so
important in this one big, beautiful bill, despite it being
far from perfect, is that it ended the subsidies for
wind and solar, which people were went bonkers over because
as long as government is giving out free money, why
don't we all build a solar farm? Right if the
government's paying you, sure, I'll be in the solar business,
I'll be in the wind business. And so getting rid
(33:30):
of those subsidies will force this industry to stand on
its own two feet. At the same time, it's going
to mean these industries are going to make life even
more expensive for Texans because the federal government isn't picking
up the tab anymore. Right, the Biden administration knew that
Republicans just as much as Democrats, like free crap from Washington, DC,
(33:50):
and a lot of Republicans were suckered in from with
free crap. But that's not the way we can run
our country. Lord knows the cue. We can't run our industry,
our energy industry, this way. And it's also I think
why the President and his energy team have emphasized fossil
fuels and they've emphasized nuclear and you've seen executive orders
(34:10):
on all of these areas because they have small footprints,
they are reliable, they don't depend upon the weather, and
we have them an abundant supply and they don't require
tax dollars to keep them afloat. So if we want more,
we need to build more. Reopen every cold plant Texas
has shuttered. I think seven enormous coal plants in the
(34:32):
last five years. Tell Greg Abbott to turn them back
on if they haven't been dismantled. Just put the things
back online and where do you see how your electricity
bills fall? That requires a lot of political will, and
Greens are paying the governor to not put them back online.
Of course climate change, but that's just a load of craft.
All it is is that they're in the wind and
(34:53):
solar business and they want the business.
Speaker 1 (34:56):
Now, do you at least put banana peppers on your
Italian sub? I mean you do? Okay, that's something, well,
that's something he is Daniel Turner, Power the Future. Thank you,
my friend. I appreciate you very much. God bless you.
Speaker 5 (35:10):
Jesse.
Speaker 1 (35:12):
Hey, Chris, are banana peppers kosher? I want to ask
before I said they are okay? Well, I don't know
have you ever have you ever had one on a pizza?
What do you mean you don't like banana peppers? Yes,
they do taste good. It's one of the best peppers
out there. Corey, you like banana peppers. Of course, Corey
likes banana Who doesn't like banana peppers? Are they too
(35:34):
hot for you? That's probably what it is. That's probably
what it is. Banana peppers are too hot for Jewish
producer Chris and now we just exposed him here on
the show. Speaking of Chris, if I talk to you
about gold, about buying gold from gold Co, you know,
the debt crisis is here, Inflation hasn't gone away as
(35:57):
you as you already know. What do you think might
happen when the tariffs come down? You think there may
be some problems, or when something else comes out, a
new war, a new this, a new that. That's always something.
How do you make sure your retirement will be there?
Gold or silver? I don't care. I honestly don't care
(36:18):
about the color. Gold doesn't impress me. What doest impress
me is I could put you in a time machine
and fly you back a thousand years ago, and if
you had gold, you would have tremendous value thousand years
in the future, tremendous value. It outlasts nations and always will.
Our entire country will be gone, and your gold and
(36:40):
silver will still have value. Let Gold Code get some
in your retirement. They know what they're doing. You don't
have to know what you're doing. I don't know how
to do what they do. Let them get you some
physical gold and silver. Maybe you're wondering can I trust
this company? Well, the Better Business Bureau gives them an
A plus rating. Why do you think that is eight
(37:01):
five five eight one seven gold. I trusted them with
my money eight five five eight one seven gold. Or
go to Jesse likesgold dot com. All right, we have
a final hour and we're gonna churn through a bunch
of emails during this final hour. Remember Jesse at Jesse
Kelly Show is the email address.
Speaker 5 (37:23):
We have.
Speaker 1 (37:25):
Maybe some more trouble on the horizon in Iran, and
it was pretty much predictable, but looks like trouble may
be coming sooner rather than later. Let's talk about that
next
