Speaker 1 (00:10):
This is a Jesse Kelly show.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show. Let's have some fun
on a for Friday. Congratulations once again, we have arrived
at the weekend. The week of work.

Speaker 1 (00:33):
Is over and it is time to play. And we
have so much great stuff tonight on the Jesse Kellys Show.
Because your questions were incredible. Of course, it's an ask
Doctor Jesse Friday. Two almost competing questions. Some guy says,
I feel like this turn this presidential term has already failed.
We'll talk about that. Someone else is mad about people

(00:54):
bailing early. Yeah, one bad interview, that kind of a thing.
Someone else wants to talk about Congress being in Congress,
how it corrupts people, the government shut down, did we win,
did we lose? All that and so much more coming
up on the world famous Jesse Kelly's Show. I want
to begin here though, because it's been a rocky rate

(01:16):
week and a lot of not so great things have
kind of come down this week. A couple bad interviews
made people mad the Trump administration. We are getting poll
numbers showing some things that are horrifying, and we hope
they need to turn around. Poll numbers as in people

(01:39):
prefer Democrats now over Republicans. When it comes to the economy,
Democrats have made huge gains. Republicans are way behind. This
is on a generic ballot. On a generic ballot, Democrats
are now pulling thirteen points ahead of Republicans. And we'll
get into the reasons for that in just a moment.

(01:59):
But I wanted to address this guy. So it's been
a rocky week, Jesse. I'm concerned Trump's second term has failed.
I believe Trump has run out of time to secure
any wins. There's not much he can do without breaking
the law, and he knows that. Basically, we have to
shift focus to vance now. He's desperate. So are you

(02:20):
able to walk me off the cliff? Or is my
concern valid? His name is rob Okay one. It's not
even been a year yet, and let's not throw the
baby out with the bathwater. A bunch of judges slowing
Trump down, stopping him, kneecapping him, and Trump giving a

(02:44):
couple bad interviews about bringing in more foreigners does not
mean we're in some failed four year thing. You could argue,
if you want to look at this or through really
rose colored glasses. And I don't know that this is inaccurate.
You could argue that no matter what, the first year

(03:06):
was gonna be the worst year. And here's why. Let's
focus on the judges. Remember, these judges keep making these
illegal rulings whenever Trump tries to do something. No, we're
gonna stop that. We're gonna stop that. They keep ruling
against the president. Obviously, that's why these communists were installed
in their positions. But the Supreme Court keeps ruling in

(03:28):
our favor and keeps slapping these judges down, putting more
roadblocks in front of them as we move on. The
problem we have is things move slow. And I'm going
to get to the polling here on the economy and
why that is in a moment. But things in our
system move slow by design. It's hard to turn this ship,

(03:54):
a ship this size, a twenty trillion dollar economy, three
hundred million person country. It's hard to have that ship
going in a different direction. It's not a speedboat where
you just crank the wheel and turn it around. The
first year is probably the worst year. Now I understand

(04:17):
that there's a chance, probably a decent chance, Democrats take
back the House of Representatives in the midterms and probably
impch Donald Trump every fifteen minutes. I understand that I
got it, I got it completely, But even then that
doesn't stop it. And if I have to try to
make you feel even better than that, you say, maybe

(04:41):
we're stuck, maybe it's over already. Well, are you asking
for legislation? Is that what you're asking for? That's what
we run into a lot people like you, people like me,
political people. We think about legislation when it comes to quote,
getting things done. We need a law, a good law.

(05:01):
And I know you have good ideas for laws. And
we want single subject bills, and we want voter id
and I got that, I know that, but we often
talk about how we need a law. Let me make
you feel better about this. Let's say Congress is completely
gridlocked for the rest of Trump's three years. Maybe the
votes aren't there for either party to pass anything. Is

(05:25):
that a bad thing? How many times did I say,
underneath Joe Biden that it's not humanly possible for a
congress this rotten, this corrupt, it's not humanly possible for
them to pass a good law. It can't be done,
especially when we have teeny tiny narrow majorities in the

(05:50):
House and the Senate. I realize the Senate it's not
that tiny, but we don't have sixty votes. That means
in order to get a law passed, you need Democrat votes.
You know how you get Democrat votes throwing horrible communism
inside the bill? Do we want a law past it?
If I pulled up my phone tomorrow morning when I

(06:12):
wake up and I see they're working on a law,
even a law that sounds good, that the headline of
it sounds good, I'm not gonna stand up and cheer.
I'm gonna go Oh, let's go examine all the crap
that's in that. This Congress cannot pass a good law.
So let's set laws aside. What do we have for

(06:36):
the next three years? What do we need? We need
Donald Trump to build a massive deportation machine. He is
building it. We need Pam Bondi to chase down government
corrupt people and send them to prison. Are we gonna
get that? Ah? Not super hopeful, but we'll see. We
need Donald Trump. We need him to build the deportation machine.

(07:02):
That's the main thing we need. Everything else we can
set that aside. The deportation machine must be built. Remember
that he's not the end. He's the beginning of the
America First Movement. It will march on long after he's gone,
when he's retired and golfing every day down in mar Lago.

(07:26):
The movement must march on without him. It's not humanly
possible to fix everything. No, we're not done. We need
judges and deportations from him. We need arrests from PAMBONDI
Are we going to get all those things? Probably not,
but we'll get some something. Remember under Joe Biden, I

(07:48):
said the same thing, tell you right now, we should
be fortifying our own areas right now in anticipation of
rocky times. Which brings me to the pole I brought
up about both parties. Now, Democrats have completely overtaken Republicans
when it comes to confidence in the economy. I know

(08:08):
it stops screaming that that makes no sense. I understand that.
Let me explain it. I feel like this might be
our future for a very very long time. Why people
are mad because of inflation. That's why people are mad.
They think the economy is bad because inflation is bad.
And they're correct about that. You know, the whyse set

(08:30):
that aside. We have inflation because of government spending and
money printing. Neither political party has the courage to stop
that spending or money printing, which means that inflation will
not go back down. Ever, in the last five years,
Americans lost twenty to twenty five percent of their buying power.

(08:52):
Maybe you're experiencing this in your own life that will
not be reversed by either party. What that means is
the American people are always going to be unhappy with
the economy, and whatever party currently holds the White House
is going to be blamed for it. You can scream

(09:13):
till you're blue in the face at all these normies
and explain to them the who, what, when, where, and
why the Inflation Reduction Act and that you can try
as hard as you possibly can. But the sad part
of our system is politically uninformed people are really the
ones who decide elections. It's not you, it's not me. Yes,

(09:36):
we are the workers, the tip of the spear, if
you will. We're the ones who bust our butts and
get out the vote and fund these campaigns and all
these things. Yes, we matter, but we don't actually win
the elections. It's the kind of half brained, dead normy
who votes Democrats one cycle, then Republicans, then Democrats. I
don't know. I woke up on the wrong side of

(09:57):
the bed today. I'll vote for communists, don't. These are
the people who decide elections. To put it, frank, morons
decide who's going to be president of the United States
of America. They do, Chris, they do. It's true. They do.
People who never pay attention. You're here every single day,

(10:17):
paying attention, knowing the issues. You don't decide it. I
already know who you're voting for in twenty twenty eight,
whoever the Republican nominee is. I know it, and you
know it. I'm doing the same. I'm not mocking you.
It's the moron out there who's still undecided. He's the
one that's what we have to friggin deal with around here.
So I don't know if that made you feel better,

(10:39):
maybe it made you feel worse. But we still have
three years be all right. Just make sure you've gotten
a whole of LifeLock to make sure you don't catch
your bank account wiped out. We have enough economic problems
without you waking up to an empty bank account and
a fifty thousand dollars loan taken out in your name.
People wake up to that every single day because of
identity theft. It is one of those problems. It started

(11:02):
popping up, I don't know ten fifteen years ago you
started to notice it. Now it's one of the major
criminal empires on the globe online identity theft. They want
your data, They're after your data. How will you know?
LifeLock will tell you, hey, you need to be aware
of this and if they get you, LifeLock will make

(11:25):
you whole again. LifeLock has America based restoration specialists who
will make you whole again and they mean it guaranteed
or your money back. You want to save up to
forty percent off your first year LifeLock dot com promo
code Jesse is how you do that? Or call one
eight hundred LifeLock promo code Jesse term supply We'll be back.

(11:52):
This is a Jesse Kelly Show. It is the Jesse
Kelly Show on a Wonderful Friday and Doctor Jesse Friday.
I have second degree burns on my chest and my
shirt is stained and I'm blaming ob for it. Telling
you right now. She doesn't even know yet. She's out
of town. So I'm telling you before I even tell

(12:13):
her I'm blaming Ob. Here's what happened. Bob is a
Christmas lover. Look, I'm a lover of Christmas too. Okay,
thank you Jesus for coming to earth. Thank you. I'm
a Christmas lover too. I love the presence, the festivities,
the music that I'm a Christmas fan. Bob is unable

(12:40):
to hold herself back from pulling the trigger early on
decorating the house. We have, just like you do, three
or four tubs. Honestly, it might be five or six
tubs of Christmas decorations in the garage. And I know
at some point she's gonna look at one labor watch

(13:01):
one Christmas movie in early November, and she's gonna get
the bug the I need to decorate for Christmas. Bug. Okay,
so this happened. What is the date today, I'm not
even kidding. This happened about ten days ago. Ten days ago,
early November Saturday. She looks at me and says, it's

(13:24):
Christmas time. The boys and I looked at each other,
please no, but we were powerless to stop it. We
had to go out into the garage, me and the
boys and pull down all the Christmas tubs. The one
thing I will say in her defense is being as
how she's a detailed nerd profession or perfectionist, she doesn't

(13:47):
actually want any help except for the physical labor pulling
the tubs down, lifting stuff up. She really just wants
you to leave her alone. Bring down the tubs. She's
gonna turn on Christmas music and you can just disperse.
Sounds good. She decorates the house for Christmas. She was
unable to control herself and pulled the trigger on a

(14:10):
purchase in the grocery store. What was it? Disposable coffee mugs.
We already have coffee mugs, we even have some disposable ones.
But these ones were, of course, Christmas ones. We can't
just use the regular disposable mugs. We had to go

(14:31):
with the Christmas ones. Okay, all right. I wasn't gonna
put up a fight. They were on sale. No big deal,
disposable coffee mugs. I'm on the way to work. I
decide I wanted to go Cup of Joe, I use
one of the Christmas mugs, because not only did she
set those out, she put the other ones away and

(14:52):
I don't know where they are, and she's out of town.
I grabbed the Christmas cup. Fill it up, take the lid.
I put the lid on it. Now. I've been burned before,
and I mean it exactly how I set it, so,
I don't want you to think that I was careless
when I put a lid on a coffee mug. I

(15:13):
take time with it. I set it down. I'm pressing
all around the rim. I make sure that thing is
on there, it was on there. I get in my car,
I start driving. I take one drink. I'm watching the road,
so I'm not looking at the coffee mug. All of

(15:35):
a sudden, the skin on my chest begins to melt.
I feel like I can almost smell it boiling, because
the coffee is pouring out of the faulty Christmas coffee
cup and right down my chest. Do you see this.
I'm wearing a white shirt. It's covered in one big
coffee stain. I am on fire. Currently my shirt is

(15:58):
now half brown. I chose not to go back home
to change. What difference does it make At this point
in time, nothing matters. I have torched my shirt and
everything hurts. The only thing I have to look forward
to now is going home and putting on my Cozy
Earth robe, and that's what I will do for the
rest of the evening. I Am going to go home

(16:21):
and take this shirt off when the show is done,
and I'm going to put on my Cozy Earth robe
and I'm going to sit down on the couch and
because no one is there to make fun of me,
I'm going to use the bubble cuddle blanket that ob
uses all the time and put it over my legs,
and I'm going to watch a World War two documentary
like a ninety five year old man. I would highly
recommend you get involved in all this Cozy Earth stuff

(16:43):
yourself now that they're having a big Black Friday deal
where you can save up to forty percent. Cozyarth dot
com promo code Jesse is how you do it. You
need to towels, the robes, the sheets, good the everywhere pants,
get your wife the bubble blanket and only use it
yourself when she's out of town. Cozyarth dot com promo

(17:05):
code Jesse Jesse, why does our side give up so easy?
You read a bunch of emails like I hate Trump
now and I want to impeach, so on and so forth.
One bad interview and folks are ready to throw in
the towel. Communists stick with their side until they want
to say, okay, pill, here's here's what we have to

(17:27):
understand and what well everyone needs to understand in politics
in DC. They are the ones that need to understand
what we're about to say. We are angry. The American
right is angry about a variety of things, but immigration
is something that we are furious about, not just illegal

(17:49):
legal immigration. We have watched now as it has reached
a boiling point. Now people can't find jobs, they can't
afford homes, they can't afford health insurance. We are angry.
So politicians need to be very very careful when they
discuss the issue of immigration. And the problem is, and

(18:11):
this has been a big problem in the GOP for
a very long time, the wealthy businesses, wealthy business owners,
wealthy people whose money we need to run. We need
their money. We have to raise money from these people.
They don't care about immigration. In fact, they love it,
whether it's illegal or legal. I've told you what I

(18:34):
ran into with the GOP when I ran for Congress.
It was all they wanted to hear from me. They
didn't care how pro life I was. Low taxes spending
that they didn't care about that at all. Hey, you're
not really serious about stopping all illegal immigration? Right? These
were Republican money people, and when I told them in

(18:55):
no uncertain terms that I was dead serious, they went
shopping around for someone else who was a bit more pliable.
Big money interests in the GOP do not feel like
you feel about immigration. They are the ones with Trump's
cell number. You are not. So while he understands the problem,
addresses the problem, they're in his ear. Then he goes

(19:17):
on the news and says, we don't have talented people here.
It just came out wrong. It touched a nerve. People
were mad. No, it's not time to throw Trump out.
Absolutely not, no, but he touched on a sensitive issue.
You know what. I'll finish up on that. Hang on
a second. Is he smarter than everyone who knows? Does

(19:38):
he think so? Yeah? The Jesse Kelly Show.

Speaker 2 (19:44):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Friday.
And asked doctor Jesse Friday, churning through all your questions
and various things here, So just.

Speaker 1 (19:56):
The question was I'm gonna finish this up here in
a second, Move on to other stuff. You know, everyone's
mad at Trump? Why why are they someone mad about Trump?
Why are we giving up one? You shouldn't be giving
up on Trump. Trump's done a lot of very good
things in the first year. Some things that are not good,
he said, some things that are bad. That's always gonna happen.
And it was a terrible interview, indefensively bad. It's terrible.

(20:17):
But no, it's not time to give up on it.
But it also is understandable why that touched on such
a nerve. And this comes back to actually, it's similar.
In fact, it's identical to the foreign policy top we've
had many times before. You can get away with things
in politics, foreign policy wise, when domestically things are okay.

(20:43):
The citizens of your country will let you go do
your foreign adventuring all you want. When they have food
on the table, a job, when their basic needs are met,
they're gonna let you go, even if they may disagree
with it. It's not going to become a hot button
issue when you're out of work, when you're running up

(21:03):
the credit card bills, when you're fretting about medical bills,
when you're stressing about these things. The last thing people
want to hear is how important it is that we
send another two hundred million dollars to Ukraine. Even if
it is super important, even if the point is completely right,
people don't want to hear it. They don't care, they

(21:24):
don't want to hear it when things are unhappy at home.
And this is something that directly, it is one hundred
percent identical when it comes to the issue of immigration.
Unless you're a communist who wants to burn America down,
you don't want any more immigration into the United States
of America right now, not just illegals, the mass quantities

(21:45):
of illegals. Why why does this become more of a
hot button issue because the country was filled up basically
during Joe Biden's presidency. Now people can't find jobs. Now
things are dirtier, crime bidden. They're murdering people on the
highway with CDLs they got from California. The Communists cranked
the volume up on immigration to such a degree that

(22:07):
now on the right there is no appetite whatsoever for
anything other than deport every frigging one of them. And
the wildest thing is there is a long storied history
of Republicans wrecking their careers over trying for trying to
be softer on immigration. Do you remember now, we all
like Marco Rubio. Now, I have historically not cared for

(22:30):
him that much, but I'm so impressed with Marco Rubio now.
But if you've been paying the attention to politics long enough,
you remember when Marco Rubio first got elected to the
United States Senate from Florida. Let me spoil it for
you in case you don't remember. Marco Rubio was the
hottest thing since sliced bread when he got elected to

(22:53):
the Senate in Florida. He gave great speeches. He sounded
like he was hardcore on our side. He's this young,
handsome guy. It was just he just popped. Immediately. Everybody
knew Rubio. Everyone talked about Rubio. He was Rubio this
and Rubio that. Everyone thought, wow, this guy is going
to be a president one day, if not shortly. Then

(23:16):
what happened. Marco Rubio, for whatever reason, signed on to
an amnesty bill called the Lee. It was a Gang
of eight amnesty bill. There were a bunch of Republicans
and a bunch of Democrats who came together and tried
to pass. Of course, they called it an immigration bill.

(23:36):
They always call it that. But every time there's an
immigration bill, it'll be half border enforcement. The other half
will be let's give them all citizenship. Marco Rubio signs
on for it. It didn't end up passing, didn't end
up going anywhere. It completely destroyed his presidential chances for
fifteen years. I don't remember exactly when this was ten

(23:57):
fifteen years. It destroyed him. He went from being the
hottest thing to completely on the outs. Kept getting elected
senator in Florida, but there was no more any appetite
for him. They keep touching this third rail every now
and then, and it burns them terribly, and for some
reason another one is always willing to step up and

(24:20):
touch it again. Stop touching it. But it, like, like
I tried to explain, it is conflicting messaging. They get
wealthy powerful people, Republican and Democrat. Wealthy powerful people want
foreign slave labor. They do. The Communists wane because it

(24:41):
burns the country down and they know they'll low rape
and murder you, which is part of the Communist revolution.
But Republican business leaders want cheap labor. I'm telling you,
my dad ran a construction business. When I told you,
when I graduated high schools about the time they start.
He started his own construction business. He'd always been in construction.
And I worked with him when I got out of
the Marine Corps, and I watched I watched him go

(25:04):
over this profit loss sheet. I watched him look at
his books and talk to me about his books and
how to read one. It's called a P and L.
And you know what, every single employer, including my father,
looks at labor costs. We don't think about it that way,
but they all do. Okay, we've got one hundred thousand
dollars coming in this year. Wait, we're spending sixty five

(25:26):
thousand on labor. And you know what they all do,
and it's understandable. You try to figure out a way
to get that number down. Well, if you're not an
uber patriot, or maybe even if you are one and
you're a bit misguided, you know what could get that
number down. You know what we need. Let's get a
few illegals work in the kitchen. We don't need to

(25:49):
be paying these Americans twelve bucks an hour, thirteen bucks
an hour. It's get some illegals in there for five
bucks an hour. That don't get that number down. You
know what else you need. We got a bunch of
entry level tech people here. Let's just say we can't
find any good people. Fire all the Americans, go hire
a bunch of people from India. That'll get that number down.
Those interests are wealthy and powerful, and sadly, those are

(26:13):
the people who throw twenty million dollar fundraisers for house
guys and Senate guys and guys who want to be president.
I don't know how many twenty million dollar fundraisers you've
thrown for politicians. My number stands at zero, and I'm
assuming it will always stand at zero. And money talks now,
even if they hear you, no more, no more, no

(26:34):
more immigration none, even if they hear you, I do
have a big fundraiser in the Hamptons next weekend, and
they think they're gonna be able to bundle five ten
million dollars. And there's a lot of guys there. They
want to They want some more H one b's and
they just there are two. There's an angel and a

(26:55):
demon in their ear. You're the angel. The other side
isn't It is what it is? Jesse. During the entire
period of the government shut down, I heard arguments on
both sides for doing away with and keeping the filibuster.
I'm very much in favor of neither, but going back
to the original stand and whatever. It was extremely frustrating

(27:17):
that almost no one in the conservative media, a Republican
party could make this argument. Why do you think that
is nuking the philibuster? I understand why Donald Trump wants
it because he has a narrow majority in the House.
He thinks the Democrats are going to take the House
in the midterms. He essentially thinks he has one year

(27:39):
to pass a piece of legislation, so he wants to
filibuster nuke so he can pass legislation. I understand his motivation.
It's very very understandable motivation. It's a terrible idea. It's
a terrible idea because nobody has brought forward a bill
that would be a good bill that we would pass

(28:00):
even if the filibuster was nuked. You don't do something
drastic like nuking the filibusters so you can pass legislation
unless the legislation you're going to pass completely recaps the
other side from winning elections. If Democrats nuked the filibuster,
if they did something like that, and they may very
well do so you know what they're going to do.

(28:22):
They're going to do things that ensure we can't win
elections anymore. Let's make Washington DC a state. Let's lower
the voting age to fifteen, you name it. The legislation
they will pass will ensure their opposition cannot achieve power. Again,
what are we going to do for that? What are
we going to do? I haven't seen it. I haven't

(28:44):
heard it. You told me you're going to nuke the
filibuster and that's going to result in you deporting fifty
million people. Okay, I'm all ears. I haven't even seen
anybody float that idea. Not one. All right, let me
float an idea to you. Nineteen dollars and ninety five cents.
I know it's not nothing, but it's also not the

(29:05):
end of the world. Nineteen ninety five. Are you in pain?
The pain that sucks turns your life into crap. Your
knee hurts all the time, always, your neck, you're rubbing
your hands. Are you in pain? For nineteen ninety five?

(29:26):
There's a chance relief factor can take it away. They
sell three weeks of it nineteen ninety five that they're
just saying, hey, try it for three weeks. It is
drug free. It is a supplement. Your body's natural response
to pain, to that inflammation needs that little help. Relief

(29:47):
Factor is that help? Nineteen ninety five Call one eight
hundred the number four relief or go to relief factor
dot com. Speaking of corruption in Congress, what if I'd
been elected next? Jesse Kelly.

Speaker 3 (30:05):
Vaccian It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Wonderful Friday,
and asked doctor Jesse Friday, do you hear what Brooke
Rawlins said, ag Secretary about all these SNAP benefits?

Speaker 4 (30:19):
Number is closer to one hundred and eighty six thousand
deceased men and women and children in this country are
receiving a check. Now, that is what we're really going
to start clamping down on. Half a million are getting two.
But here's the really stunning thing. This is just data
from those twenty nine mostly red steaks. Can you imagine

(30:40):
when we get our hands on the blue state data
what we're gonna find. It's gonna give us a platform
and a trajectory to fundamentally rebuild this program. Have everyone
reapply for their benefit. Make sure that everyone that's taking
a taxpayer funded benefit through SNAP or food stamps, that
they literally are are vulnerable and they can't survive without it,

(31:02):
and that I'm going to let.

Speaker 1 (31:03):
That literally go because they're looking into it. That's the
only reason I'm letting that literally go. See you heard
it too, didn't you, Chris? What did it add to
the sentence? What did it add? Nothing? Nothing, Dear Private Bronco.
It just came to me after you commented for the
ten thousands time how members of Congress try to hold
their seat with all their might for the love of

(31:25):
money and power. Since you did not get elected, thank God,
have you ever thought about how you would have handled
all the lobbyists and corporations trying to throw money at
you for your vote? What was your internal thoughts of
how you would have handled it and how you would
have compared yourself to His name is Guy, Okay, Guy?
So I believe in God, as you probably have figured out.

(31:52):
I believe in Jesus. I believe in God, and I
have watched in my forty four years, I have watched
him look out for me in various ways, when at
the time it didn't seem like he was looking out
for me. Could have gone this route I really wanted
to go this route. Oh, that turned out to be

(32:12):
a disaster. I have. Let me tell you a little story.
I generally had to take the bus or ride my
bike to school in the morning when I was a kid.
Every now and then, it was very rare. Every now
and then my dad would take me to school. My
dad worked a lot. He was gone a lot. I
didn't see a lot of him when I was a

(32:33):
little kid. One morning he was in the kitchen. He
was usually gone by the time I was getting ready
to leave. I was young, very young, six seven years old.
I would guess, I'm begging him in the kitchen. Can
you take me to work? Can you take me to work?
Can you take me? You can take take me with you?
For me? It was everything. Get to hang with my dad.
See my dad. I wanted it so bad. He takes off,

(32:56):
says no, takes off, doesn't have time. It's snowing. This
is back in Ohio. It's snowing, its ice. He is
really bad out there. He gets in a terrible, terrible
car wreck, totals it. It was an old buick he
was driving. Car slides into the opposite lane and there
is a large truck coming head on collision. My Dad's

(33:20):
head goes through the windshield glass in his head. Hospital
terrible totals the car all right, very very lucky he
didn't die. This town, this is in Toronto, Ohio. That's
where we lived. This town had a habit of taking
a bad car wreck, taking the car and putting it
on display in the main dragon town, just as like

(33:43):
a message to people, hey be safe out there, seatbelts,
that kind of thing. They put the buick up. When
I rode with my dad, I always rode right behind him.
I sat behind the driver's side. That's where I sat.
We go check out the buick. One day there was
the sharpest, most jagged piece of metal you've ever seen

(34:06):
in your life that went from the driver's side door
and went directly through the driver's side seat. In the
back seat, it would have gone right through my freaking chest.
No chance of survival would have been dead. Because I
didn't get what I wanted. I lost two congressional races.

(34:30):
I wanted to go, and I thought I would look
twenty some year old Jesse twenty seven, twenty eight years old.
I thought I was going to go to Washington, d C.
I was sure I was gonna win. I thought I
was gonna go to DC and I was gonna get
all these commy scumbags in line, and I was gonna
save America and I'd probably, of course, end up as
president one day. Oh, I'd had all these I'd had
all these thoughts in my head. Of course I'll probably

(34:51):
be a senator and then president, and then I'm gonna
save America by myself. What if? What if I would
have turned bad? I think about that, What if I
would have turned bad? Look, everyone nobody thinks that about themselves, right, No,

(35:11):
I would have been perfect, incorruptible. I never would have
succumbed to this or succumbed to that, or this lobbyist
that that. No, I would never fall for that. Easy
for me to say, what if I would have? What if?
What if I was being looked out for? And remember this,

(35:31):
My Democrat opponent was Gabrielle Gifford's, the one who got
shot in the head. The guy who shot Gabrielle Giffords
in the head and shot all those people. He did
this three weeks after I lost the election to her.
They recounted the votes. It took them a week because
the election was so close. She ends up winning. She's

(35:52):
in public, giving a speech at a safeway at grocery store.
She's given a speech it a safeway, surrounded by staffers.
Dude comes up, tries to assassinate her, shoots her in
the head, shoots all these friggin people. All right, this
guy was not a Republican, he wasn't a Democrat. He
was a nutball who wanted to kill someone famous. What

(36:17):
if that was me? I would have been the newly
elected congressman. I don't know that I would have been
in safe way, but like all politicians, I would have
been standing. I would have been announcing, Hey, I'm doing
a town hall here something there. What if that was me?
I don't know why I didn't go, but I know
if God wanted me in Congress, I would have been

(36:39):
in Congress. And I'm much much happier now anyway. One,
I don't have to talk to anybody. I don't what, Chris,
I don't have to go to large events all the
time and talk to a lot of people. I just
get to talk to you for three hours and then
I get to go home. I don't have to travel
all though we ask people for money all the time.

(37:03):
That was the worst I don't want to ask freaking
people from money all the time. This is a much
better life in my opinion. I don't want to be
in politics. What I do want is for you to
start taking natural herbal supplements from Chalk. That's what I want,
because they'll make your life better. Chalk has changed my

(37:24):
life again. This morning woke up Ob was gone, so
it was breakfast Taco time. Breakfast tacos, Male Vitality stack
from Chok glorious. I have so much more energy now.
My mind works better. Although you may not be able
to tell, my mind actually works better. It's like a

(37:45):
fog clears out of your mind. The longer you take it,
you get your tea levels jacked through the roof. You
are just a better man in every possible way. Ladies,
they have stuff for you too, Female vitality stacks for you,
vitality stacks for the men. And it's subscription time. Don't
pay full price. Go to chalk dot com slash jesse

(38:09):
and get a subscription. You're about to feel better chalk
dot com slash Jesse. Now there's something else I wanted
to address about that question I just got asked corruption.
I'm gonna explain what just happened to me. I got
a message yesterday. I'm gonna read it to you because

(38:34):
it helps explain a lot of the propaganda campaigns you see.

Ruthie's Table 4

Ruthie's Table 4

For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
