Speaker 1 (00:10):
This is the Jesse Kelly Show. It is the Jesse
Kelly Show. Another hour of the Jesse Kelly Show on
a wonderful Monday. So we're going to talk about Medal
of Honor Monday here in just a couple of minutes.
Of course, then we are going to dig into a
couple other things about Afghanistan. I'm gonna do some emails.
(00:33):
There's a lot we have to get to tonight on
the show. But we're not getting to anything else but
Medal of Honor Monday right now, start of the second hour.
Every single Monday would do the exact same thing. We
honor a hero. We remember his name, and we remember
his deeds. And I want to remind you again that
(00:53):
every time someone earns a medal of honor, they do
a write up on what he did. It's called a citation.
You can go look these up yourself. It's free. There
are multiple websites that allow you. You can even sort
it by branch of service or by conflict. You can
just go read them. It's like reading an action movie.
(01:15):
Read them to your kids, to the office, to your team,
to your Sunday school. These are people who should be remembered.
It is important for a nation to remember its keros.
And we do take email recommendations on top of your love,
your hate, and your death threats. And you're asked, doctor Jesse, questions.
Of course, if you have a medal of honor citation
(01:38):
that is close to you in some way, a friend,
a neighbor from your hometown, maybe one you just love,
you can email it in. There is a bit of
a backlog on that one morning you but we got
this email, Jesse. You recently honored Roger Donlin's Medal of
Honor award. Shortly after it was awarded, he was the
keynote speaker to the GRADUATINGRECS class at Fort Benning on
(02:03):
the thirteenth of May nineteen sixty five. In the audience
was the very next recipient, Walter Marm for actions he
would perform six months later at el z x ray
the battle portrayed in We were Soldiers. If you recognize
Walter marm on twelfth of May twenty twenty five, that's
(02:24):
one day before sixty years ago. Obviously we missed that one.
I was in the graduating class on the thirteenth of
May nineteen sixty five. How cool is this? And Walter
marm was in the class behind us. There were three
Medal of Honors awarded for actions during the Battle of
Elsie x Ray Walter marm Ed two Tall Freeman and
(02:45):
Bruce P. Crandall. So, just to set this up before
I get to the actual citation again, remember remember that
helicopters and Vietnam go hand in hand. Now because of
books and movies and documentaries, everyone just sees these heroes
in Vietnam and just kind of thinks to themselves, what
(03:06):
was always part of it? That was the first war,
the first major war where we were kind of pioneering
this idea that instead of horses, we could fly these things,
and all of our troops in and out of battle.
We can fly supplies in and out of battle, wounded
(03:27):
in and out of battle. We can come up with
fleets of these heroes and fly them in and out.
Now back to the story. Remember it's a great book,
by the way, before they made a great movie about it.
The book is called We Were Soldiers, and I believe
it's called We Were Soldiers Once in Young. The name
(03:48):
of the movie is just We Were Soldiers. It's a
Mel Gibson movie. It is outstanding, maybe a little rough
depending on the age of your kids, by the way,
but outstanding, outstanding movie, and pretty accurate trail of what
went down. So when we first got to Vietnam, and
actually throughout our time in Vietnam, one of the hardest
things is to gather intelligence to know where the enemy
(04:12):
is and how many of them there are. This is
not something that just magically comes to you. You don't know,
and when you start to include things like mountains, things
like the jungle, any kind of thickly wooded area, it
becomes even more impossible to figure out what's out there,
how many of them there are. It's we take this unit, right,
(04:36):
we take this unit of calve soldiers, cavalry soldiers, throw
them on elos, and they go to some place in
the I Drang Valley. It's in Vietnam. They were there
as kind of a reconnaissance enforce type mission, meaning there's
a lot of our guys, not an overroaming them out.
There's a lot of them, and they're there to sniff
(04:58):
around and see what's out there, and there are we
think enough of them that, look, no matter what, they're
not going to run into a force big enough to
wipe them out. Right. Only we find out almost immediately
after we get these guys there that there is an
insurmountable force of North Vietnamese right on top of them.
(05:22):
They were at the base of this mountain, and the
mountain served as the headquarters for this force. And the
North Vietnamese when they realize the Americans had landed, they
saw it as an opportunity to wipe out the American
troops as really a propaganda thing, meaning what kind of
(05:44):
a message would this send the American public if they
lost all these guys. Let's go kill them all and
see what happens. And so our guys walk into a
hornets nest. And to get out of a hornet's nest
like this, you need guys like Walter Joseph Marme, Junior,
US Army. He was a second lieutenant at the time,
(06:06):
and he was born in nineteen forty one in Washington, Pennsylvania.
Here's what he did, honoring those who went above and
beyond Its Medal of Honor Monday for conspicuous gallantry and
(06:27):
intrepidity at the risk of his life, above and beyond
the call of duty as a platoon leader in the
first Cavalry Division, First Lieutenant Marm demonstrated indomitable courage during
a combat operation. His company was moving through the valley
to relieve a friendly unit surrounded by an enemy force
of estimated regimental size. First Lieutenant Marm led his platoons
(06:52):
through withering fire until they were finally forced to take cover.
Realizing that his platoon could not hold very long, and
seeing four enemy soldiers moving into his position, he moved
quickly under heavy fire and annihilated all four. Then, seeing
that his patoon was receiving intense fire from a concealed
(07:13):
machine gun, he deliberately exposed himself to draw its fire,
thus locating its position. He attempted to destroy it with
an anti tank weapon. Although he inflicted casualties, the weapon
did not silence the enemy fire. Quickly, disregarding the intense
fire directed on him and his patoon, he charged thirty
(07:35):
meters across open ground and hurled grenades into the enemy position,
killing some of the eid insurgents manning it. Although severely
wounded when his grenades were expended, armed with only a rifle,
he continued the momentum of his assault on the position
and killed the remainder of the enemy. First Lieutenant Marm's
(07:55):
selfless actions reduced the fire on his platoon, broke the enemy,
and rallied his unit to continue toward the accomplishment of
this mission. First Lieutenant marms gallantry on the battlefield and
his extraordinary intrepidity at the risk of his life are
at the highest traditions of the US Army and reflect
great credit upon himself and the armed forces of his country.
(08:20):
It really, truly is a wonderful, wonderful story of American heroism.
And if you're a reader, really really recommend the book.
Don't feel guilty if you're like Chris and you can't read,
just go pick up the movie. It's an excellent movie.
Excellently It's an excellent movie, pretty violent obviously because it's combat.
(08:43):
This is a warning for the kiddos, for parents where
the kids are too small. I attempted to show the
boys this movie, probably when they were a little too young,
and it didn't take me that long into the movie
where I decided maybe another couple years before they're seasoned
enough to handle it. Look, there are people burning alive,
(09:07):
or then that that could be difficult to see. Hey, Jesse,
democrats are now openly saying if they win in twenty
twenty eight, they'll retroactively decide if any orders were illegal,
and they'll prosecute anyone who followed them. We know this
is the exact playbook. How realistic is it that they
can do this? Is it all talk and bluster? Will
(09:30):
it affect any rank and file in the military today?
His name is Chris Well. One that's not, ever, ever,
ever doubt the seriousness of the Communist Because the Communists,
especially in America today, can look so silly and ridiculous
(09:52):
with their stupid dances on the streets, and they're pink,
fruity hair and everything else. It can be easy for
normal people like you, like me to say, well, they're
not serious, they're not serious. And on top of that,
remember this, the communists plans are so violent, evil and
demonic that one of his greatest feathers in his cap
(10:14):
has always been his opposition not thinking he's serious. They
wouldn't really right, Oh, they would never do this right,
they would never do that right. They're just talking. They're
never just talking. They're dead serious. Trust me on that. Now.
(10:35):
I'll get to that in a moment, in a little
more depth. I want to read you this, Hey, Jesse,
have you ever looked at a digital picture frame? I
know you're happy with Legacy Box did digitization? Now, a
digital picture frame is like having all those images as
slides on a desk table, hanging on a wall. You
can put on the video, so on and so forth.
(10:58):
His name is Craig. I read this because that's exactly
what we did with our Legacy Box thumb drive. Right now,
Legacy Box, they have a cyber week event going on,
sixty five percent off. Did you hear me? Sixty five
percent off? When you get a thumb drive with your
your videos or your hard copy pictures digitized. They have
(11:22):
these frames. Now you plug it in and it just
cycles through those pictures all day long. Do you know
how freaking wonderful that is to have in your house?
I think we have several, well, I know we have several.
I was about to say three, but it might be
four at this point in time. Anyway, sixty five percent
off Legacybox dot com slash Jesse. Take advantage of that.
(11:43):
Legacybox dot com slash Jesse. We'll be back mistost catch
up Jesse Kellyshow dot com. It is the Jesse Kelly
Show on a wonderful, and I'm not going to drag
you down here. I We're gonna get to a couple
emails and off the wall stories here in a moment,
(12:05):
but I did want to address that email before we
get to Venezuela and the refugees and emails and everything else.
The guy asked, do you think Democrats are serious about
prosecuting people on the right if they take over? You
know what? The do Little Rate is, right. I won't.
I'm not going to do a long thing on it,
but the do Little Rate? What was it? After Pearl Harbor,
(12:29):
the United States of America wanted to send a message
to Japan. Japan felt like it was really really safe
clear across the Pacific Ocean. They had a great navy,
they'd taken all these islands, and the island itself has
really a religious significance to the Japanese people, certainly at
(12:50):
that time. And so we came up with the idea
for a raid. We would take these bombers. You'd have
to strip them out of a bunch of stuff to
make them light enough so they could take off and
take off from an aircraft carrier because the runway isn't
that long and we would send a bombing raid over
(13:11):
over Japan. Now, did you know that the Doolittle raid
didn't hardly do any damage? In fact, if we're being honest,
it didn't do any significant damage to the Japanese war effort,
and I mean none whatsoever. Did not hold back the
(13:33):
Japanese war machine at all. So why bother? And I
guess more importantly, why did the Japanese get so angry
after it that they tore through China where the Doolittle
raiders landed and killed two three hundred thousand people depending
(13:55):
on depending on what you were looking for, depending on
which sources you believe, hundreds of thousands of people died
because the Japanese anger was so red hot after the
Dolittle raid. What was the point of the Dolittle raid?
To send a message? Sometimes sending a message matters a lot.
(14:19):
Do you know why Donald Trump had to go to
a boutique law firm to find lawyers to represent him
with all his legal cases? Do you know why? Because
the Communists in the legal profession and the Democrat Party
in the Blue States of this country waged such a
vicious war against anyone who legally represented Donald Trump, trying
(14:45):
to desbar I mean, you name it. Such a vicious
legal war was waged against those people that the next
time Donald Trump found himself facing prison time, which he
was before this election, with all his money, always power,
all his connections, he could not find a high powered
(15:07):
attorney from one of the big law firms to represent him.
Why because communists understand the importance of sending a message.
Even if you get people hurt, even if you get
people killed. You know, these people don't care about that.
Sending a message itself has value. What does this have
(15:28):
to do with the communists and what they'll do afterwards? Well, Republicans,
the right, they've never understood the value of sending a message.
So you'll get Christy Nome, or you'll get Cash Mattel,
or you'll get Pam Bondi on the news issuing all
these threats to people. We're gonna come after you if
you do this. We're coming after you. Guys. Don't do
(15:52):
this because we're gonna bring you down, and then nobody
ever goes down. Words aren't sending a message, prison time, bankruptcy,
the destruction of your reputation, your career, that sends a message.
(16:14):
Communists did what they did to Donald Trump after Joe
Biden stole that election, not just because they hated Donald Trump.
They were sending a message not just to him, not
just his lawyers, but to future Republicans who dared challenge them.
(16:37):
You challenge us, you try to hold back the revolution,
and we will destroy you. We will arrest you, we
will bankrupt you, we will destroy you. Now we caught
some breaks. Biden administration screwed up as much as they
could have screwed up, spent all kinds of money, the
(16:58):
inflation got out of control, the border got opened up,
they went two nuts on the cultural stuff. And for
all these reasons, Donald Trump gets swept back into the
White House because the American people are angry about that.
But the point remains. Communists were trying to kill Donald Trump.
(17:20):
Tried multiple times to kill Donald Trump and tried to
throw him in prison for the rest of his life.
This is before he got elected again and started firing
deep staters, deporting people, and doing things that actually harm
the revolution. I set all that to say this, and
then we'll give off for a few before we get
(17:41):
serious again. They're going to do worse next time. When
the communists promise that they're going to arrest this person,
arrest that person. Here's the headline, Oregans lesbian governor threatens
to prosecute federal agents for enforcing US immigration law. You're
gonna see ice agents be put on trial if Democrats
(18:03):
take power again. You know that. Bordup Troy agents, military officials.
They don't believe in the word games. We're gonna get you, guys.
They understand the true value in sending a message. Believe me,
Republicans will go to prison if Democrats take power again.
(18:25):
They will. It's gonna be really, really bad. Let's hope
that day doesn't come. We'll be back the Jesse Kelly
Show on air and online at Jesse kellyshow dot com.
It is The Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful Monday. Member,
you can email us Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com
(18:46):
your love, your hate, your death threats. One final word
on this before we get to some emails. A couple
other things. Communists they shot Donald Trump in the head.
Every jurisdiction where they had total power, they just simply
invented felonies and tried to send him to prison for
the rest of his life. If Fanny Willis hadn't had
(19:07):
an affair with Nathan Wade. They may they may have succeeded.
If Donald Trump doesn't turn his head at the split
second right moment, they would have succeeded in killing him.
Communists understand the value of sending a message. How about Republicans?
How seriously do communists take Republicans when they issue these
(19:28):
threats We're gonna come after you. Well, I'll give it
to Jasmine Crockett.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
No one came to give me last time.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
In fact, it is a cute little warrant that has
a cute little.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
Frame on it.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
And so they like to talk a big game.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
But the reality is that number one, you.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
We're going to arrest these democrats who who break the law.
Democrats go to the news and say that's adorable. I
have mine framed. Yeah you can. You can be dismissive
of communists, mock communists. I certainly do both things. But
don't ever think the communist is kidding when he tells
(20:07):
you his terrible plans. If anything, he's under selling them. Hey, Jesse,
always talking about my bacon wrap thing from Thanksgiving? Tell
me your bacon wrap peppers were filled with fig broccoli,
and goat cheese. Actually no, so Thanksgiving, just a little recap.
We were having a big neighborhood Thanksgiving. Everyone had to
(20:30):
bring a dish or two. Ab was of course going
to do one of her world class desserts, which got
swept up immediately. It's all gone. There was scraping the
bottom of her berry cobbler. They just they massacred it.
And I went and I bought these logo bacon wrapped peppers.
Only I didn't ask the store with what was in them.
I had no idea. Turns out, Chris, sorry, probably not
(20:51):
going to be for you, pal, but it was stuffed
full of pork belly and cheeses like some kind of
sort of cream cheese and then some sort of yellow
cheese cheddar of some kind. What Chris, what it was
bacon wrap bacon? Yep, pretty much, Yes, that's exactly right.
It was bacon rap bacon. And I gotta be honest
(21:13):
with you, Bud. They were freaking amazing, but then Ab
had to ruin it. I kept telling everybody, you need
to try these, this is my recipe, and she had
he bought all those and she ruined the whole thing.
It was, Yeah, it was terrible. Speaking of which, you
know what I did on Thanksgiving morning? Now I need
(21:34):
to clarify it. Everybody has a different level of fitness, right,
and you can only do what you can do. Maybe
you are in supreme shape and you're training for an
iron man. Maybe you're out of shape, never work out.
Maybe you're obese and you're just trying to walk. I'm
(21:56):
not trying to humiliate anybody or make you feel bad
because you can't do what I can do. But Thanksgiving morning,
they had a turkey trot in my area. I got up,
I fueled up, made sure I got some peanut butter
(22:18):
inside of me. Just wanted to make sure I had
some energy, a couple cups of coffee. Of course, have
been hydrating for a couple of days. I walked a
five k on Thanksgiving morning without stopping. Walked a five k?
How about that? Ob ran a ten k? And then
(22:43):
she got so upset when we showed up at the
big neighborhood party and I had actually pinned my race
numbers on my nice clothes that I wore toed the
Thanksgiving party. She begged me not to, but I did anyway,
and then everyone kept asking about it. And I kept saying, yeah,
we ran a race this morning, and then she would
freak out of it. You didn't run anything. And then
(23:04):
I would tell her, please, don't disparage your fellow racers
and stuff like that. What Chris, was her time better
than mine? I'm not sure if I want to discuss this.
So here's what happened. The people who were the overachievers
who were running the ten k, they started ten minutes
(23:28):
before the people who were doing the five k, So
she had a big head start, all right, a big
head start. Now she takes off with my oldest son James,
my runner. They take off. Luke and me decide we're
going to walk the five k like iron men. Then
we do, and we have a blast and we're walking
(23:50):
and we're talking and we're going through the neighborhood and
hanging out with people. But then as we're nearing the end,
as we're nearing the finish line, there were all these people.
There are hundreds and hundreundreds of people were there and
they're taking pictures and everything. I tell Luke as we're
about to round the corner for the last one hundred
meters or so to the finish line, hundred yards. I
(24:11):
tell him, we need to start running now, because if
you start running now, then everyone will think that you
ran the whole time. And he agreed, And so the
second we round the corner, we start jogging and I
start He's dying laughing. I'm waving at all the cameras
and pointing to people. I'm grabbing water from the water
(24:32):
station and drinking. I'm like, we did it to thank you, guys,
I appreciate you. And he's just dying. Right about then,
Ab and James round the corner and pass us and
barely passed us by I'm not even kidding. I don't
know how they timed it this way, ten fifteen feet.
And then she spent the rest of the day disrespectfully
(24:53):
telling everybody they lapped us, which is not true. They
had a ten minute head start. We're they're all racers.
We're all in pretty supreme shape here. Not to brag, Hey, Jesse,
are American communists soft and paper tigers because they're attempting
a revolution. Their attempted revolution didn't follow a brutal war
(25:16):
like the Chinese and Russians and so on and so forth.
That's a big part of it. That's a big part
of why our communists are soft. But don't think because
our communists are soft, they're not capable of committing acts
of violence. As we've seen, the most deranged transferrery freak
in the world is capable of pulling the trigger and
killing somebody. We've seen this over and over and over again.
(25:39):
Don't dismiss them all. Right, now, let's discuss this Afghanistan
stuff before we move on. I'm specifically talking about the
refugee stuff because right now the Trump administration they cut
off visas for Afghan passport holders. They've essentially said, hey,
anyone from Afghanistan has to go. Nobody knew is coming
(26:02):
in here. And this is in the wake of that
terror attack where Sarah where Sarah Beckstrom? Where am I
screwing up her name? Now Beckstrom? Where Sarah Benstrom, twenty
years old National Guard soldier was killed. She's killed. The
guy's shouting Allahu Akbar and all that other crap they shout,
kills this wonderful young lady patriot twenty years old kills her.
(26:25):
Now Americans are waking up and realizing, wait a minute,
something was wrong here, something must be wrong here. Well,
yet there's a lot wrong here. So maybe we should
have another discussion in a different way about Afghanistan and
about how and why all of this went down, because
remember the Biden administration told us repeatedly, over and over
(26:48):
and over again that all these people were vetted, that
everything was good to go. Remember when they were saying, I.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
Can't absolutely assure you that no one is coming into
the United States of America who has not been through
a thorough screening and background check process. And there are
many individuals, as you noted, who have not been through
that process, and they have gone to lilypad countries as
that process has been completed.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Biden's on camera saying it. Jen Sucky was on camera
saying it repeatedly, over and over and over again. They've
been vetted, They've been vetted. We vetted these people. They're vetted,
They're vetted, They're vetted. And then we wake up one
day and we find out that they killed one soldier
and another one is still fighting for his life. By
the way, he's allegedly awake in responsive. So that's a
(27:34):
good thing. The one who's fighting for his life, it's something.
It's better than nothing. Let's talk about what happened and
why before we do that, let's save a baby's life.
Preborn is here to help us save lives. Preborn is
saving the lives of unborn babies every single day, and
(27:55):
they do it using the greatest tool the pro life
movement ever had, the ultrasound. The ultrasound tells women the truth,
not what they read online, not the news, not some relative, boyfriend, husband,
heartbeats don't lie. Preborn sets these clinics up in the
(28:17):
high abortion areas and they give free ultrasounds to these
mothers who are about to abort their babies. And these mothers,
when they get the ultrasound, choose life. Almost every time.
It's almost the year end. You know, preborn donations are
tax deductible. You're gonna be looking for one of those
thirty days from now. Preborn dot com slash Jesse preborn
(28:43):
dot com slash Jesse. We'll be back. You're listening to
the oracle. You love this one. It's a scream baby
the Jesse Kelly Show. It is The Jesse Kelly Show
on a wonderful Monday, talking about right now these half
and refugees. How did we end up with so many
people in our country from Afghanistan who shouldn't be here
(29:06):
and from other places, but we'll focus on Afghanistan for now.
Now let's discuss this in detail, shall we, allies? In fact,
that guy who murdered that young National Guard soldier, he
worked with the CIA was considered an ally. But what
does that mean. Well, I was in Iraq. I was
(29:30):
not in Afghanistan. I was in Iraq. We had translators,
locals who knew the language and the customs, and we
always understood the chances that guy helping us translate is
working with the enemy are strong. So you don't tell
him everything. He doesn't get details. You don't pull him
(29:54):
aside an hour before in operation and tell him, Okay,
we're going here, here, and here, and we're going to
have fifty fifty marines with us. You know why you
don't tell him that, because everyone understood he's going to
get on his little burner phone and he's going to
text his terrorist buddies, and then you're going to get
ambushed and killed. Not politicians, not people in the media,
(30:17):
not someone from the JAG Corps. Go talk to anybody
who was boots on the ground in Afghanistan and ask
them about the general experience with allies over there where.
There are some great ones, of course, oh, of course,
I don't want to say otherwise, But it was always understood.
(30:40):
The people you're working with, your translators, they have loyalties
that may not align with you, even if they're loyalties
do align with you. That Afghani translator, he has a wife,
he has children. Wife, those children, they're not living in
(31:03):
the safety of a military base. They're out there in
Afghan society. They're out there in mortal danger. Even if,
and this is a big if, even if you're the
most pro America defeat the Taliban Afghan translator in the world,
(31:23):
how long does the Taliban have to hold your wife
and pull her fingernails out before you decide you're going
to work with them on bombing the next American convoy.
They love to run to the news now and talk
about how how wonderful these Afghan allies are. There are
(31:44):
most precious people, and they they fought side by side
with us. Here's another Democrat.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
Lastly, Congressman, I do want to ask you about something else.
You fought in Afghanistan and supported the withdrawal and the
repatriation of Afghans who assist the US forces. In light
now of the shooting of two National guardsmen by one
of those Afghans who is repatriated to the United States,
do you have concerns about either the vetting process to
(32:11):
allow them in the country or the potential for radicalization.
Speaker 4 (32:19):
The Afghans who were patrioted to the United States, who
were our allies and our compatriots in Afghanistan, they are
some of the most vetted individuals in the country. This
shooting is a tragedy. This individual must be held to
justice and the found guilty. I hope he spends the
rest of his life in prison. But we should not
collectively punish the Afghan community for the actions of one individual.
(32:42):
That's not who we are as Americans. We don't punish people.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
That's all a lie. They weren't patriotic, loyal allies. Well,
of course a few were. It was well known. They
were traders, well known. You had to use them when
you could well known to be traded. That's one. Two vetted.
They loved to say that vetted. Huh. Let me ask
(33:08):
you something because I know you remember I played it
for you earlier. You remember how the Biden administration tried
to tell you that they were vetting all these I.
Speaker 3 (33:16):
Can absolutely assure you that no one is coming into
the United States of America who has not been through
a thorough screening and background check process. And there are many.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
Really huh, well, let's just walk through this logically, shall we.
You ever known anybody who's been through a background check?
Maybe you yourself have been through a background check? Was
it a five minute process? Let me go ahead and
clue you in if you don't know, in order to
do a background check, it's not that they sit you
(33:49):
down for five ten minutes and ask you some questions. Oh,
that's part of it. Don't get me wrong. They're going
to go talk to your kindergarten teacher. I'm not making
that up. They're going to talk to your neighbors. They'll
talk to friends you've known for a long time. Does
he have a drinking problem? Have you ever seen him
get violent? What's his relationship like with his wife. They're
(34:11):
going to comb through the paperwork, history of your life, transcripts,
criminal records, credit scores. It's not a five minute process.
It takes weeks. It takes months to do a background
check on one person. And that's one person who's an American,
(34:32):
meaning from a modern country with all kinds of records
that can be verified, medical, like I said, criminal, everything.
We are a country, a modern country that keeps records.
We have these things, and it still takes weeks and
it takes months. So how could they say something so
(34:52):
why I.
Speaker 3 (34:53):
Can absolutely assure you that no one is coming into
the United States of America who has not been through
a thorough screen and background check process.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
They say it because people were stupid and they believe it.
That's why they say it. They didn't vet a freaking thing.
They were worried about bad pr because Afghans were falling
from C one thirties and getting shot in the head
by the Taliban, and so they just grabbed as many
freaking Afghans as they possibly could and threw them on
(35:24):
the back of a plane and flew them into America.
And I told you behind the microphone as it was happening,
because I had guys involved in the whole affair. Guys
were saying, there are bad people on this plane. I
know this guy, this is a bad guy, and he's
on this plane heading to America. They didn't vet anything.
(35:49):
The Baden administration were disgusting anti American communists only worried
about pr only worried about poll numbers. So they grabbed
as many Afghanis they possibly could, chuck them on a
plane and flew them into your backyard. Now they drive
from Washington State and they murder a twenty year old
(36:10):
young lady who signed up the fight for her country.
And you know the biggest tell, you know, how you
know they didn't vet them. I've got a little sound bite.
Maybe you've heard it before, but there's a little part
of it. I bet you missed. There's the ultimate tell
in how you know they didn't vet them. I'll play
that for you in a moment. Before I play that
for you, let me tell you this relief factor works.
(36:31):
It works for your pain. You go through it. You
have pain. I'm talking about your knee hurting all the time,
your back hurts all the time, every day you bend over,
you sit down, your elbow, maybe muscle pain somewhere. It
hurts because it's inflamed. Your body is trying to fight
(36:53):
that inflammation. It needs help. Relief factor is that help.
It is a supplement, not a drug, one hundred percent
drug free. A supplement. It builds up in your system.
The longer you take it, the better it works. You
are three weeks away from that knee feeling just fine.
(37:14):
Three weeks. They sell you three weeks of it for
nineteen ninety five. Just try it for three weeks. If
it doesn't work, don't call them back. One eight hundred,
the number four relief or go to relief factor dot com.
You know how you know they didn't vet them. I'll
play it for you next
This is the Jesse Kelly Show. It is the Jesse
Kelly Show. Another hour of the Jesse Kelly Show on
a wonderful Monday. So we're going to talk about Medal
of Honor Monday here in just a couple of minutes.
Of course, then we are going to dig into a
couple other things about Afghanistan. I'm gonna do some emails.
(00:33):
There's a lot we have to get to tonight on
the show. But we're not getting to anything else but
Medal of Honor Monday right now, start of the second hour.
Every single Monday would do the exact same thing. We
honor a hero. We remember his name, and we remember
his deeds. And I want to remind you again that
(00:53):
every time someone earns a medal of honor, they do
a write up on what he did. It's called a citation.
You can go look these up yourself. It's free. There
are multiple websites that allow you. You can even sort
it by branch of service or by conflict. You can
just go read them. It's like reading an action movie.
(01:15):
Read them to your kids, to the office, to your team,
to your Sunday school. These are people who should be remembered.
It is important for a nation to remember its keros.
And we do take email recommendations on top of your love,
your hate, and your death threats. And you're asked, doctor Jesse, questions.
Of course, if you have a medal of honor citation
(01:38):
that is close to you in some way, a friend,
a neighbor from your hometown, maybe one you just love,
you can email it in. There is a bit of
a backlog on that one morning you but we got
this email, Jesse. You recently honored Roger Donlin's Medal of
Honor award. Shortly after it was awarded, he was the
keynote speaker to the GRADUATINGRECS class at Fort Benning on
(02:03):
the thirteenth of May nineteen sixty five. In the audience
was the very next recipient, Walter Marm for actions he
would perform six months later at el z x ray
the battle portrayed in We were Soldiers. If you recognize
Walter marm on twelfth of May twenty twenty five, that's
(02:24):
one day before sixty years ago. Obviously we missed that one.
I was in the graduating class on the thirteenth of
May nineteen sixty five. How cool is this? And Walter
marm was in the class behind us. There were three
Medal of Honors awarded for actions during the Battle of
Elsie x Ray Walter marm Ed two Tall Freeman and
(02:45):
Bruce P. Crandall. So, just to set this up before
I get to the actual citation again, remember remember that
helicopters and Vietnam go hand in hand. Now because of
books and movies and documentaries, everyone just sees these heroes
in Vietnam and just kind of thinks to themselves, what
(03:06):
was always part of it? That was the first war,
the first major war where we were kind of pioneering
this idea that instead of horses, we could fly these things,
and all of our troops in and out of battle.
We can fly supplies in and out of battle, wounded
(03:27):
in and out of battle. We can come up with
fleets of these heroes and fly them in and out.
Now back to the story. Remember it's a great book,
by the way, before they made a great movie about it.
The book is called We Were Soldiers, and I believe
it's called We Were Soldiers Once in Young. The name
(03:48):
of the movie is just We Were Soldiers. It's a
Mel Gibson movie. It is outstanding, maybe a little rough
depending on the age of your kids, by the way,
but outstanding, outstanding movie, and pretty accurate trail of what
went down. So when we first got to Vietnam, and
actually throughout our time in Vietnam, one of the hardest
things is to gather intelligence to know where the enemy
(04:12):
is and how many of them there are. This is
not something that just magically comes to you. You don't know,
and when you start to include things like mountains, things
like the jungle, any kind of thickly wooded area, it
becomes even more impossible to figure out what's out there,
how many of them there are. It's we take this unit, right,
(04:36):
we take this unit of calve soldiers, cavalry soldiers, throw
them on elos, and they go to some place in
the I Drang Valley. It's in Vietnam. They were there
as kind of a reconnaissance enforce type mission, meaning there's
a lot of our guys, not an overroaming them out.
There's a lot of them, and they're there to sniff
(04:58):
around and see what's out there, and there are we
think enough of them that, look, no matter what, they're
not going to run into a force big enough to
wipe them out. Right. Only we find out almost immediately
after we get these guys there that there is an
insurmountable force of North Vietnamese right on top of them.
(05:22):
They were at the base of this mountain, and the
mountain served as the headquarters for this force. And the
North Vietnamese when they realize the Americans had landed, they
saw it as an opportunity to wipe out the American
troops as really a propaganda thing, meaning what kind of
(05:44):
a message would this send the American public if they
lost all these guys. Let's go kill them all and
see what happens. And so our guys walk into a
hornets nest. And to get out of a hornet's nest
like this, you need guys like Walter Joseph Marme, Junior,
US Army. He was a second lieutenant at the time,
(06:06):
and he was born in nineteen forty one in Washington, Pennsylvania.
Here's what he did, honoring those who went above and
beyond Its Medal of Honor Monday for conspicuous gallantry and
(06:27):
intrepidity at the risk of his life, above and beyond
the call of duty as a platoon leader in the
first Cavalry Division, First Lieutenant Marm demonstrated indomitable courage during
a combat operation. His company was moving through the valley
to relieve a friendly unit surrounded by an enemy force
of estimated regimental size. First Lieutenant Marm led his platoons
(06:52):
through withering fire until they were finally forced to take cover.
Realizing that his platoon could not hold very long, and
seeing four enemy soldiers moving into his position, he moved
quickly under heavy fire and annihilated all four. Then, seeing
that his patoon was receiving intense fire from a concealed
(07:13):
machine gun, he deliberately exposed himself to draw its fire,
thus locating its position. He attempted to destroy it with
an anti tank weapon. Although he inflicted casualties, the weapon
did not silence the enemy fire. Quickly, disregarding the intense
fire directed on him and his patoon, he charged thirty
(07:35):
meters across open ground and hurled grenades into the enemy position,
killing some of the eid insurgents manning it. Although severely
wounded when his grenades were expended, armed with only a rifle,
he continued the momentum of his assault on the position
and killed the remainder of the enemy. First Lieutenant Marm's
(07:55):
selfless actions reduced the fire on his platoon, broke the enemy,
and rallied his unit to continue toward the accomplishment of
this mission. First Lieutenant marms gallantry on the battlefield and
his extraordinary intrepidity at the risk of his life are
at the highest traditions of the US Army and reflect
great credit upon himself and the armed forces of his country.
(08:20):
It really, truly is a wonderful, wonderful story of American heroism.
And if you're a reader, really really recommend the book.
Don't feel guilty if you're like Chris and you can't read,
just go pick up the movie. It's an excellent movie.
Excellently It's an excellent movie, pretty violent obviously because it's combat.
(08:43):
This is a warning for the kiddos, for parents where
the kids are too small. I attempted to show the
boys this movie, probably when they were a little too young,
and it didn't take me that long into the movie
where I decided maybe another couple years before they're seasoned
enough to handle it. Look, there are people burning alive,
(09:07):
or then that that could be difficult to see. Hey, Jesse,
democrats are now openly saying if they win in twenty
twenty eight, they'll retroactively decide if any orders were illegal,
and they'll prosecute anyone who followed them. We know this
is the exact playbook. How realistic is it that they
can do this? Is it all talk and bluster? Will
(09:30):
it affect any rank and file in the military today?
His name is Chris Well. One that's not, ever, ever,
ever doubt the seriousness of the Communist Because the Communists,
especially in America today, can look so silly and ridiculous
(09:52):
with their stupid dances on the streets, and they're pink,
fruity hair and everything else. It can be easy for
normal people like you, like me to say, well, they're
not serious, they're not serious. And on top of that,
remember this, the communists plans are so violent, evil and
demonic that one of his greatest feathers in his cap
(10:14):
has always been his opposition not thinking he's serious. They
wouldn't really right, Oh, they would never do this right,
they would never do that right. They're just talking. They're
never just talking. They're dead serious. Trust me on that. Now.
(10:35):
I'll get to that in a moment, in a little
more depth. I want to read you this, Hey, Jesse,
have you ever looked at a digital picture frame? I
know you're happy with Legacy Box did digitization? Now, a
digital picture frame is like having all those images as
slides on a desk table, hanging on a wall. You
can put on the video, so on and so forth.
(10:58):
His name is Craig. I read this because that's exactly
what we did with our Legacy Box thumb drive. Right now,
Legacy Box, they have a cyber week event going on,
sixty five percent off. Did you hear me? Sixty five
percent off? When you get a thumb drive with your
your videos or your hard copy pictures digitized. They have
(11:22):
these frames. Now you plug it in and it just
cycles through those pictures all day long. Do you know
how freaking wonderful that is to have in your house?
I think we have several, well, I know we have several.
I was about to say three, but it might be
four at this point in time. Anyway, sixty five percent
off Legacybox dot com slash Jesse. Take advantage of that.
(11:43):
Legacybox dot com slash Jesse. We'll be back mistost catch
up Jesse Kellyshow dot com. It is the Jesse Kelly
Show on a wonderful, and I'm not going to drag
you down here. I We're gonna get to a couple
emails and off the wall stories here in a moment,
(12:05):
but I did want to address that email before we
get to Venezuela and the refugees and emails and everything else.
The guy asked, do you think Democrats are serious about
prosecuting people on the right if they take over? You
know what? The do Little Rate is, right. I won't.
I'm not going to do a long thing on it,
but the do Little Rate? What was it? After Pearl Harbor,
(12:29):
the United States of America wanted to send a message
to Japan. Japan felt like it was really really safe
clear across the Pacific Ocean. They had a great navy,
they'd taken all these islands, and the island itself has
really a religious significance to the Japanese people, certainly at
(12:50):
that time. And so we came up with the idea
for a raid. We would take these bombers. You'd have
to strip them out of a bunch of stuff to
make them light enough so they could take off and
take off from an aircraft carrier because the runway isn't
that long and we would send a bombing raid over
(13:11):
over Japan. Now, did you know that the Doolittle raid
didn't hardly do any damage? In fact, if we're being honest,
it didn't do any significant damage to the Japanese war effort,
and I mean none whatsoever. Did not hold back the
(13:33):
Japanese war machine at all. So why bother? And I
guess more importantly, why did the Japanese get so angry
after it that they tore through China where the Doolittle
raiders landed and killed two three hundred thousand people depending
(13:55):
on depending on what you were looking for, depending on
which sources you believe, hundreds of thousands of people died
because the Japanese anger was so red hot after the
Dolittle raid. What was the point of the Dolittle raid?
To send a message? Sometimes sending a message matters a lot.
(14:19):
Do you know why Donald Trump had to go to
a boutique law firm to find lawyers to represent him
with all his legal cases? Do you know why? Because
the Communists in the legal profession and the Democrat Party
in the Blue States of this country waged such a
vicious war against anyone who legally represented Donald Trump, trying
(14:45):
to desbar I mean, you name it. Such a vicious
legal war was waged against those people that the next
time Donald Trump found himself facing prison time, which he
was before this election, with all his money, always power,
all his connections, he could not find a high powered
(15:07):
attorney from one of the big law firms to represent him.
Why because communists understand the importance of sending a message.
Even if you get people hurt, even if you get
people killed. You know, these people don't care about that.
Sending a message itself has value. What does this have
(15:28):
to do with the communists and what they'll do afterwards? Well, Republicans,
the right, they've never understood the value of sending a message.
So you'll get Christy Nome, or you'll get Cash Mattel,
or you'll get Pam Bondi on the news issuing all
these threats to people. We're gonna come after you if
you do this. We're coming after you. Guys. Don't do
(15:52):
this because we're gonna bring you down, and then nobody
ever goes down. Words aren't sending a message, prison time, bankruptcy,
the destruction of your reputation, your career, that sends a message.
(16:14):
Communists did what they did to Donald Trump after Joe
Biden stole that election, not just because they hated Donald Trump.
They were sending a message not just to him, not
just his lawyers, but to future Republicans who dared challenge them.
(16:37):
You challenge us, you try to hold back the revolution,
and we will destroy you. We will arrest you, we
will bankrupt you, we will destroy you. Now we caught
some breaks. Biden administration screwed up as much as they
could have screwed up, spent all kinds of money, the
(16:58):
inflation got out of control, the border got opened up,
they went two nuts on the cultural stuff. And for
all these reasons, Donald Trump gets swept back into the
White House because the American people are angry about that.
But the point remains. Communists were trying to kill Donald Trump.
(17:20):
Tried multiple times to kill Donald Trump and tried to
throw him in prison for the rest of his life.
This is before he got elected again and started firing
deep staters, deporting people, and doing things that actually harm
the revolution. I set all that to say this, and
then we'll give off for a few before we get
(17:41):
serious again. They're going to do worse next time. When
the communists promise that they're going to arrest this person,
arrest that person. Here's the headline, Oregans lesbian governor threatens
to prosecute federal agents for enforcing US immigration law. You're
gonna see ice agents be put on trial if Democrats
(18:03):
take power again. You know that. Bordup Troy agents, military officials.
They don't believe in the word games. We're gonna get you, guys.
They understand the true value in sending a message. Believe me,
Republicans will go to prison if Democrats take power again.
(18:25):
They will. It's gonna be really, really bad. Let's hope
that day doesn't come. We'll be back the Jesse Kelly
Show on air and online at Jesse kellyshow dot com.
It is The Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful Monday. Member,
you can email us Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com
(18:46):
your love, your hate, your death threats. One final word
on this before we get to some emails. A couple
other things. Communists they shot Donald Trump in the head.
Every jurisdiction where they had total power, they just simply
invented felonies and tried to send him to prison for
the rest of his life. If Fanny Willis hadn't had
(19:07):
an affair with Nathan Wade. They may they may have succeeded.
If Donald Trump doesn't turn his head at the split
second right moment, they would have succeeded in killing him.
Communists understand the value of sending a message. How about Republicans?
How seriously do communists take Republicans when they issue these
(19:28):
threats We're gonna come after you. Well, I'll give it
to Jasmine Crockett.
Speaker 2 (19:35):
No one came to give me last time.
Speaker 3 (19:36):
In fact, it is a cute little warrant that has
a cute little.
Speaker 1 (19:39):
Frame on it.
Speaker 2 (19:40):
And so they like to talk a big game.
Speaker 3 (19:42):
But the reality is that number one, you.
Speaker 1 (19:46):
We're going to arrest these democrats who who break the law.
Democrats go to the news and say that's adorable. I
have mine framed. Yeah you can. You can be dismissive
of communists, mock communists. I certainly do both things. But
don't ever think the communist is kidding when he tells
(20:07):
you his terrible plans. If anything, he's under selling them. Hey, Jesse,
always talking about my bacon wrap thing from Thanksgiving? Tell
me your bacon wrap peppers were filled with fig broccoli,
and goat cheese. Actually no, so Thanksgiving, just a little recap.
We were having a big neighborhood Thanksgiving. Everyone had to
(20:30):
bring a dish or two. Ab was of course going
to do one of her world class desserts, which got
swept up immediately. It's all gone. There was scraping the
bottom of her berry cobbler. They just they massacred it.
And I went and I bought these logo bacon wrapped peppers.
Only I didn't ask the store with what was in them.
I had no idea. Turns out, Chris, sorry, probably not
(20:51):
going to be for you, pal, but it was stuffed
full of pork belly and cheeses like some kind of
sort of cream cheese and then some sort of yellow
cheese cheddar of some kind. What Chris, what it was
bacon wrap bacon? Yep, pretty much, Yes, that's exactly right.
It was bacon rap bacon. And I gotta be honest
(21:13):
with you, Bud. They were freaking amazing, but then Ab
had to ruin it. I kept telling everybody, you need
to try these, this is my recipe, and she had
he bought all those and she ruined the whole thing.
It was, Yeah, it was terrible. Speaking of which, you
know what I did on Thanksgiving morning? Now I need
(21:34):
to clarify it. Everybody has a different level of fitness, right,
and you can only do what you can do. Maybe
you are in supreme shape and you're training for an
iron man. Maybe you're out of shape, never work out.
Maybe you're obese and you're just trying to walk. I'm
(21:56):
not trying to humiliate anybody or make you feel bad
because you can't do what I can do. But Thanksgiving morning,
they had a turkey trot in my area. I got up,
I fueled up, made sure I got some peanut butter
(22:18):
inside of me. Just wanted to make sure I had
some energy, a couple cups of coffee. Of course, have
been hydrating for a couple of days. I walked a
five k on Thanksgiving morning without stopping. Walked a five k?
How about that? Ob ran a ten k? And then
(22:43):
she got so upset when we showed up at the
big neighborhood party and I had actually pinned my race
numbers on my nice clothes that I wore toed the
Thanksgiving party. She begged me not to, but I did anyway,
and then everyone kept asking about it. And I kept saying, yeah,
we ran a race this morning, and then she would
freak out of it. You didn't run anything. And then
(23:04):
I would tell her, please, don't disparage your fellow racers
and stuff like that. What Chris, was her time better
than mine? I'm not sure if I want to discuss this.
So here's what happened. The people who were the overachievers
who were running the ten k, they started ten minutes
(23:28):
before the people who were doing the five k, So
she had a big head start, all right, a big
head start. Now she takes off with my oldest son James,
my runner. They take off. Luke and me decide we're
going to walk the five k like iron men. Then
we do, and we have a blast and we're walking
(23:50):
and we're talking and we're going through the neighborhood and
hanging out with people. But then as we're nearing the end,
as we're nearing the finish line, there were all these people.
There are hundreds and hundreundreds of people were there and
they're taking pictures and everything. I tell Luke as we're
about to round the corner for the last one hundred
meters or so to the finish line, hundred yards. I
(24:11):
tell him, we need to start running now, because if
you start running now, then everyone will think that you
ran the whole time. And he agreed, And so the
second we round the corner, we start jogging and I
start He's dying laughing. I'm waving at all the cameras
and pointing to people. I'm grabbing water from the water
(24:32):
station and drinking. I'm like, we did it to thank you, guys,
I appreciate you. And he's just dying. Right about then,
Ab and James round the corner and pass us and
barely passed us by I'm not even kidding. I don't
know how they timed it this way, ten fifteen feet.
And then she spent the rest of the day disrespectfully
(24:53):
telling everybody they lapped us, which is not true. They
had a ten minute head start. We're they're all racers.
We're all in pretty supreme shape here. Not to brag, Hey, Jesse,
are American communists soft and paper tigers because they're attempting
a revolution. Their attempted revolution didn't follow a brutal war
(25:16):
like the Chinese and Russians and so on and so forth.
That's a big part of it. That's a big part
of why our communists are soft. But don't think because
our communists are soft, they're not capable of committing acts
of violence. As we've seen, the most deranged transferrery freak
in the world is capable of pulling the trigger and
killing somebody. We've seen this over and over and over again.
(25:39):
Don't dismiss them all. Right, now, let's discuss this Afghanistan
stuff before we move on. I'm specifically talking about the
refugee stuff because right now the Trump administration they cut
off visas for Afghan passport holders. They've essentially said, hey,
anyone from Afghanistan has to go. Nobody knew is coming
(26:02):
in here. And this is in the wake of that
terror attack where Sarah where Sarah Beckstrom? Where am I
screwing up her name? Now Beckstrom? Where Sarah Benstrom, twenty
years old National Guard soldier was killed. She's killed. The
guy's shouting Allahu Akbar and all that other crap they shout,
kills this wonderful young lady patriot twenty years old kills her.
(26:25):
Now Americans are waking up and realizing, wait a minute,
something was wrong here, something must be wrong here. Well,
yet there's a lot wrong here. So maybe we should
have another discussion in a different way about Afghanistan and
about how and why all of this went down, because
remember the Biden administration told us repeatedly, over and over
(26:48):
and over again that all these people were vetted, that
everything was good to go. Remember when they were saying, I.
Speaker 3 (26:53):
Can't absolutely assure you that no one is coming into
the United States of America who has not been through
a thorough screening and background check process. And there are
many individuals, as you noted, who have not been through
that process, and they have gone to lilypad countries as
that process has been completed.
Speaker 1 (27:12):
Biden's on camera saying it. Jen Sucky was on camera
saying it repeatedly, over and over and over again. They've
been vetted, They've been vetted. We vetted these people. They're vetted,
They're vetted, They're vetted. And then we wake up one
day and we find out that they killed one soldier
and another one is still fighting for his life. By
the way, he's allegedly awake in responsive. So that's a
(27:34):
good thing. The one who's fighting for his life, it's something.
It's better than nothing. Let's talk about what happened and
why before we do that, let's save a baby's life.
Preborn is here to help us save lives. Preborn is
saving the lives of unborn babies every single day, and
(27:55):
they do it using the greatest tool the pro life
movement ever had, the ultrasound. The ultrasound tells women the truth,
not what they read online, not the news, not some relative, boyfriend, husband,
heartbeats don't lie. Preborn sets these clinics up in the
(28:17):
high abortion areas and they give free ultrasounds to these
mothers who are about to abort their babies. And these mothers,
when they get the ultrasound, choose life. Almost every time.
It's almost the year end. You know, preborn donations are
tax deductible. You're gonna be looking for one of those
thirty days from now. Preborn dot com slash Jesse preborn
(28:43):
dot com slash Jesse. We'll be back. You're listening to
the oracle. You love this one. It's a scream baby
the Jesse Kelly Show. It is The Jesse Kelly Show
on a wonderful Monday, talking about right now these half
and refugees. How did we end up with so many
people in our country from Afghanistan who shouldn't be here
(29:06):
and from other places, but we'll focus on Afghanistan for now.
Now let's discuss this in detail, shall we, allies? In fact,
that guy who murdered that young National Guard soldier, he
worked with the CIA was considered an ally. But what
does that mean. Well, I was in Iraq. I was
(29:30):
not in Afghanistan. I was in Iraq. We had translators,
locals who knew the language and the customs, and we
always understood the chances that guy helping us translate is
working with the enemy are strong. So you don't tell
him everything. He doesn't get details. You don't pull him
(29:54):
aside an hour before in operation and tell him, Okay,
we're going here, here, and here, and we're going to
have fifty fifty marines with us. You know why you
don't tell him that, because everyone understood he's going to
get on his little burner phone and he's going to
text his terrorist buddies, and then you're going to get
ambushed and killed. Not politicians, not people in the media,
(30:17):
not someone from the JAG Corps. Go talk to anybody
who was boots on the ground in Afghanistan and ask
them about the general experience with allies over there where.
There are some great ones, of course, oh, of course,
I don't want to say otherwise, But it was always understood.
(30:40):
The people you're working with, your translators, they have loyalties
that may not align with you, even if they're loyalties
do align with you. That Afghani translator, he has a wife,
he has children. Wife, those children, they're not living in
(31:03):
the safety of a military base. They're out there in
Afghan society. They're out there in mortal danger. Even if,
and this is a big if, even if you're the
most pro America defeat the Taliban Afghan translator in the world,
(31:23):
how long does the Taliban have to hold your wife
and pull her fingernails out before you decide you're going
to work with them on bombing the next American convoy.
They love to run to the news now and talk
about how how wonderful these Afghan allies are. There are
(31:44):
most precious people, and they they fought side by side
with us. Here's another Democrat.
Speaker 2 (31:50):
Lastly, Congressman, I do want to ask you about something else.
You fought in Afghanistan and supported the withdrawal and the
repatriation of Afghans who assist the US forces. In light
now of the shooting of two National guardsmen by one
of those Afghans who is repatriated to the United States,
do you have concerns about either the vetting process to
(32:11):
allow them in the country or the potential for radicalization.
Speaker 4 (32:19):
The Afghans who were patrioted to the United States, who
were our allies and our compatriots in Afghanistan, they are
some of the most vetted individuals in the country. This
shooting is a tragedy. This individual must be held to
justice and the found guilty. I hope he spends the
rest of his life in prison. But we should not
collectively punish the Afghan community for the actions of one individual.
(32:42):
That's not who we are as Americans. We don't punish people.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
That's all a lie. They weren't patriotic, loyal allies. Well,
of course a few were. It was well known. They
were traders, well known. You had to use them when
you could well known to be traded. That's one. Two vetted.
They loved to say that vetted. Huh. Let me ask
(33:08):
you something because I know you remember I played it
for you earlier. You remember how the Biden administration tried
to tell you that they were vetting all these I.
Speaker 3 (33:16):
Can absolutely assure you that no one is coming into
the United States of America who has not been through
a thorough screening and background check process. And there are many.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
Really huh, well, let's just walk through this logically, shall we.
You ever known anybody who's been through a background check?
Maybe you yourself have been through a background check? Was
it a five minute process? Let me go ahead and
clue you in if you don't know, in order to
do a background check, it's not that they sit you
(33:49):
down for five ten minutes and ask you some questions. Oh,
that's part of it. Don't get me wrong. They're going
to go talk to your kindergarten teacher. I'm not making
that up. They're going to talk to your neighbors. They'll
talk to friends you've known for a long time. Does
he have a drinking problem? Have you ever seen him
get violent? What's his relationship like with his wife. They're
(34:11):
going to comb through the paperwork, history of your life, transcripts,
criminal records, credit scores. It's not a five minute process.
It takes weeks. It takes months to do a background
check on one person. And that's one person who's an American,
(34:32):
meaning from a modern country with all kinds of records
that can be verified, medical, like I said, criminal, everything.
We are a country, a modern country that keeps records.
We have these things, and it still takes weeks and
it takes months. So how could they say something so
(34:52):
why I.
Speaker 3 (34:53):
Can absolutely assure you that no one is coming into
the United States of America who has not been through
a thorough screen and background check process.
Speaker 1 (35:02):
They say it because people were stupid and they believe it.
That's why they say it. They didn't vet a freaking thing.
They were worried about bad pr because Afghans were falling
from C one thirties and getting shot in the head
by the Taliban, and so they just grabbed as many
freaking Afghans as they possibly could and threw them on
(35:24):
the back of a plane and flew them into America.
And I told you behind the microphone as it was happening,
because I had guys involved in the whole affair. Guys
were saying, there are bad people on this plane. I
know this guy, this is a bad guy, and he's
on this plane heading to America. They didn't vet anything.
(35:49):
The Baden administration were disgusting anti American communists only worried
about pr only worried about poll numbers. So they grabbed
as many Afghanis they possibly could, chuck them on a
plane and flew them into your backyard. Now they drive
from Washington State and they murder a twenty year old
(36:10):
young lady who signed up the fight for her country.
And you know the biggest tell, you know, how you
know they didn't vet them. I've got a little sound bite.
Maybe you've heard it before, but there's a little part
of it. I bet you missed. There's the ultimate tell
in how you know they didn't vet them. I'll play
that for you in a moment. Before I play that
for you, let me tell you this relief factor works.
(36:31):
It works for your pain. You go through it. You
have pain. I'm talking about your knee hurting all the time,
your back hurts all the time, every day you bend over,
you sit down, your elbow, maybe muscle pain somewhere. It
hurts because it's inflamed. Your body is trying to fight
(36:53):
that inflammation. It needs help. Relief factor is that help.
It is a supplement, not a drug, one hundred percent
drug free. A supplement. It builds up in your system.
The longer you take it, the better it works. You
are three weeks away from that knee feeling just fine.
(37:14):
Three weeks. They sell you three weeks of it for
nineteen ninety five. Just try it for three weeks. If
it doesn't work, don't call them back. One eight hundred,
the number four relief or go to relief factor dot com.
You know how you know they didn't vet them. I'll
play it for you next

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
