Longtime fans of the show are familiar with a segment we've done called This Week In Wokeism. It's time for a rebrand, because the word woke doesn't go far enough anymore. Meanwhile, instead of fighting communists, Republicans spent last week expelling a member with a strong conservative voting record, making their majority in the house smaller. Jesse Kelly gives his thoughts on all this and speaks with guests Dave Rubin, Curtis Houck, Kristina Wong and Frances Martel as well.

Speaker 1 (00:02):
The right has a serious language problem. We're going to
discuss that tonight. We're going to talk about a manipulated
election already, media malpractice, all that and more is coming
up on our right. Okay, we're going to get into

(00:25):
language performance and many other things. Before we do any
of those things. It is you know what, David, you
know what date it is. It is December, December fourth.
What does that matter, because this is a day where
we honor somebody, somebody you have probably been taught to. Hey,

(00:46):
if you were even taught about him at all, have
you ever heard.

Speaker 2 (00:50):
Of Francisco Franco.

Speaker 1 (00:54):
If you've if you've heard about him at all, If
you've ever heard about Franco, you probably in your government
school that he was an evil fascist like Hitler and
muse lady, that he massacred. It's a political opponent's an
evil monster. Now, you can love Franco or hate Franco.
I really don't care. But you should understand if you

(01:17):
were taught about him in school or watched a little
documentary on PBS about him, everything you know about him
is almost undoubtedly a flat out lie, if not very
much manipulated, imperfect, possibly tyrannical, murderous.

Speaker 2 (01:33):
Yeah, it was probably all of those things.

Speaker 1 (01:37):
But Spain had been a nation that was crumbling for
so long, coming apart at the scenes, starvation and a
coup here at, an assassination here, and an empire that
was once grand then turned into crap.

Speaker 2 (01:51):
And soon it stop me if.

Speaker 1 (01:53):
You've heard this before, the Communist stolen election. Did a
bunch of ballot stuffing. None of that sounds familiar, does it.

Speaker 2 (02:02):
And the communist stole an election, and.

Speaker 1 (02:05):
Of course promptly began murdering the priests and raping the nuns.
In fact, began massacring people, seventy thousand of their political opponents.
Any area they controlled, they massacred their political opponents. In
along come mister Francisco Franco, and experienced general in the army.

(02:29):
They approached him and said el cadil.

Speaker 2 (02:31):
That means leader in Mexican.

Speaker 1 (02:34):
Anyway, they approached him and they said, hey, save our country.
He amassed an army. He fought what is known as
the Spanish Civil War. One of them, they had a couple.
He fought the Spanish Civil War and won. And you
should know this about Francisco Franco.

Speaker 2 (02:52):
He could have.

Speaker 1 (02:53):
Won the Spanish Civil War militarily much faster than he did.

Speaker 2 (03:00):
Oh what was the hold up? Why the hold up?

Speaker 1 (03:02):
Why didn't he just go take this objective and that
objective in cod good? Because Francisco Franco understood having a
military victory didn't mean anything if communists were still infecting
his beloved Spain. So he waged a how did he
put it, centimeter by centimeter campaign understanding for his country

(03:28):
to be saved, communists had to go. What did the
Spanish get after that? I bet you didn't learn this
in history class. Forty plus years of freedom and prosperity
because they removed the communists from power.

Speaker 2 (03:47):
We do not heap scorn on mister Francisco Franco.

Speaker 1 (03:52):
Imperfect as he may have been, he was a man
who saved his country for his people. Happy birthday, El
cod deal. Now let's move on. That's what they had.
Let's talk about what we have.

Speaker 2 (04:08):
You know we have.

Speaker 1 (04:11):
We have a majority in the House of Representatives.

Speaker 2 (04:14):
Is it's bitzeeny tiny.

Speaker 1 (04:18):
We had a four seat majority in the House of Representatives.

Speaker 2 (04:23):
That's what we had.

Speaker 1 (04:24):
And then in the wake of all this Democrat corruption
out there.

Speaker 2 (04:30):
We're looking at this corruption and that corruption, corruption.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
We're looking at this crime and that crime, this lie
and that lie. The Republican Party came together with the
Democrat Party and decided the real enemy of the people
the man who must be removed from Congress is George Santos.
So our majority went from fort death three.

Speaker 2 (04:55):
And wait there's more. Now we find out a.

Speaker 1 (04:59):
Mister b Old Johnson, Republican you never heard of.

Speaker 2 (05:02):
He's in the House.

Speaker 1 (05:03):
Mister Bill Johnson announced he's retiring. So our fourth seat
majority went to a three seat majority, and now it's
a dani Downy two seat majority. And that is really
really important. You know why that little majority is important
because I remember like it was yesterday.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
You can say I have a long.

Speaker 1 (05:24):
Memory, but I remember the midterms.

Speaker 2 (05:28):
Do you remember the midterms?

Speaker 1 (05:30):
Here we are December fourth, twenty twenty three, but the
midterms were just a couple of years ago.

Speaker 2 (05:35):
You remember those? Remember those?

Speaker 1 (05:37):
Actually it was twenty twenty two, My gosh, it was
a year ago. And what happened during the midterms? Do
you remember? Do you remember the midterm campaigns?

Speaker 2 (05:46):
I do. I watched them all over the country.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
Whenever I was traveling, I'd sit back in the hotel
and I turned on the TV and I'm looking at
all these television ads. I remember opening up my email
I'm getting I'm getting emails from the Republican Party and
what are they telling me. They're going to do time
and time and time and time again.

Speaker 2 (06:05):
We will impeach Joe Biden.

Speaker 1 (06:07):
We will impeach Joe Biden. Joe Biden is a criminal.
Vote for me, John Jerkwater, and I promise you as
a Republican, I'm going to impeach Joe Biden. Just get
me into office. I'm going to impeach Joe Biden. So
John Jerkwater and the GOP they are giving back the House,
not a huge majority, but they are given back the House.

Speaker 2 (06:28):
Promising to impeach Joe Biden.

Speaker 1 (06:31):
And one of the first major things they've done in
a year is they removed one of the Republicans, making
the majority so slim that they now probably can't impeach
Joe Biden.

Speaker 3 (06:48):
The members have heard from their constituents back home. They
have confidence in the credibility of our investigation and the
mountains of evidence that we've accumulated. So I'm confident we're
going to have the vote to move forward with this
impeachment incort, and.

Speaker 2 (07:00):
You've got to have a near majority.

Speaker 4 (07:03):
The majority is so slim, even less now with George
Santos being expelled this week.

Speaker 3 (07:09):
Right, Yeah, it's tough. I think we can lose one
or two members.

Speaker 2 (07:15):
It's tough.

Speaker 1 (07:17):
Don't buy any false confidence there. That was Republicans beginning
to do what they call the military. That was Republicans
prepping the ground. What does that mean, prepping the ground? Well,
they're getting ready for a fight that's about to come.
They're getting ready to fail to impeach Joe Biden. And

(07:38):
right now they're prepping the ground.

Speaker 2 (07:41):
They're prepping you.

Speaker 1 (07:42):
They want you to be ready when they come forward
here soon and say sorry, we don't have the votes.
We tried and we do not have the votes. Sorry
about that. We just didn't have the votes. So just
to make sure we're all clear on this. The Republics
they volunteered to drive us where we want to go,

(08:06):
and then they drained the gasoline out of their car
they were going to use to drive us where they
wanted to go.

Speaker 2 (08:12):
And then as we get in the car.

Speaker 1 (08:13):
And we say, hey, drive me where I want to go,
they look back and say, oh, man.

Speaker 2 (08:17):
I was good of it.

Speaker 1 (08:18):
We'red a gas that is the most GOP thing in
the history of GOP things. What an embarrassing party, What
a bunch of useless eunuchs. At best, wrap your mind
around this. At best, we are led by eunuchs. At worst,

(08:41):
we're led by people who are actually working with Democrats
doing the whole controlled opposition thing.

Speaker 2 (08:50):
No, we will fight for you, We'll pitch Joe.

Speaker 1 (08:52):
Biden, and then always coming up with a reason.

Speaker 2 (08:55):
Oh gosh, I don't know Doggate my homework.

Speaker 1 (08:56):
I ran out of gas as always coming up with
the reasons and why they can't My goodness, if you
want to find someone who will speak out the most
loudly about Democrat corruption, you have to find the guy
who's a vegetable. What's your reaction to the.

Speaker 5 (09:11):
Expulsion, Well, it's like I'm not surprised. But to me,
I think the more important picture is that we have
a colleague and in the Senate that actually does much
more sinister and serious kinds of things. Senator Menendez, he
needs to go. And if you are going to expel Santos,

(09:32):
how can you allow to somebody like Menendez to remain
in the Senate And you know, Santos's kind of lies
were almost you know, funny and like you know, he
you know, landed on the moon and guy kind of stuff.
Whereas whereas you know, you know, I think, you know, Menendez,
I think is really a senator for Egypt, you know,
not New Jersey. So I really think he needs to go.

Speaker 1 (10:00):
Who was that Democrat Senator John Fetterman speaks more clearly
and more boldly against the other side than really any
Republican I can currently think of any of them.

Speaker 2 (10:16):
And back to what we were just talking.

Speaker 1 (10:18):
About about, how many of these guys are actually controlled opposition,
actually working for the other side. Every now and then
you get a Democrat who will kind of pop up
and say what he's not allowed to say. He'll be
honest about conversations he has with Republicans behind closed doors,

(10:39):
like Joe Biden did here.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
There are seven Republicans still in the United States Senate
come up to me since I've been president, say Joe, I.

Speaker 6 (10:48):
Agree with you, but if I if I, but we
did all to be primary to lose my election, so
they talk.

Speaker 1 (10:58):
I've heard this many, many, many times, not just from
old fool Joe Biden. So don't sit there and say
why Joe Biden lies all? He does, lie all the time.
But I've heard this many times.

Speaker 2 (11:10):
You see to.

Speaker 1 (11:11):
Your face they tell you I love America and we're
gonna impeach Joe Biden. And the second that door closes
in the Senate cloak room, they pour themselves a glass
of bourbon and they discuss how stupid you are, how
ridiculous you are. You freedom loving Americans probably even own guns.

Speaker 2 (11:29):
That's the real Washington, d C.

Speaker 1 (11:32):
All that may have made you uncomfortable, but I am
right speaking of the real Washington d C. James Carvell
went on television called Republicans worse than al Cada. Dave
Rubin happened to be sitting right beside him when he
did that, And we'll talk to Dave about that in
just the moment before we get to that. Do I
need to pull up that video for you again of

(11:55):
John Carey talking about agriculture in the world needing to go.
Do I need to pull up the video again of
Bill Gates talking about how we need to get carbon
emissions to zero. The people who in large part run
our food supply are trying to destroy our food supply.

(12:17):
I know that's difficult to wrap your mind around. Nevertheless,
that's the world we live in. What have you done
to prepare?

Speaker 2 (12:26):
Now? When I tell you about my Patriots.

Speaker 1 (12:28):
Supply and they're three month food kits, maybe you're sitting
there saying to yourself, Jesse, I don't want to I
don't want to waste the money. What if I don't
use it? What if you don't use it?

Speaker 2 (12:38):
Brother?

Speaker 1 (12:39):
I hope you don't use it. I hope I don't
use mine. But you really think that's a guarantee? They're
two hundred dollars off right now, go get a three
month food kit for yourself, for everyone who lives in
your home. Prepare with Jesse Kelly dot com. That's how
you get two hundred dollars off. Go prepare with Jesse
Kelly dot com.

Speaker 2 (13:00):
We'll be back all right.

Speaker 1 (13:07):
Before we get to my boy Dave Reuben, I need
to do something here. We're gonna kill something right now
in this show.

Speaker 2 (13:13):
Don't worry.

Speaker 1 (13:13):
It's not a puppy or anything. You know how we
do this segment this week in Wokeism, no more. Woke
is a bad word. I've decided I don't like it.
I'm not using it.

Speaker 2 (13:23):
Anymore.

Speaker 1 (13:23):
It's way too nice and fluffy sounding for these cultural
Marxist demons we're up against. There will no longer be
of this week in Wochism. I'm going to be this
week in communism or something along those lines. For instance,
we're talking about language here. You want to see somebody
everyone's mad at today, but he's using appropriate language to

(13:44):
get his people ready.

Speaker 2 (13:46):
James Carvell went on TV said.

Speaker 6 (13:47):
This Mike Johnson and what he believed is one of
the greatest threats we have today to the United States.

Speaker 2 (13:56):
When I'm gonna colmish here, I know the speaker.

Speaker 6 (14:00):
Because I'm a Christian nationalist's absolutely about. This's a bigger
threat than al Qaeda up to this country. And let
me tell you.

Speaker 2 (14:14):
One, Dave's expression on his face killed me. Two. Don't
be bad at James Garvel.

Speaker 1 (14:20):
His people fight like they're fighting against terrorists.

Speaker 2 (14:23):
We don't, because we're fighting against woke.

Speaker 1 (14:25):
You can sleep in on Saturday and not vote if
woke is what you're up against, Dave, I do have
to ask joining me now, my friend Dave Ruben of
the outstanding Reuben Report, The look on your face made
my morning, Buddy. I woke up first thing and saw
this and I just about died. What was going through
your head at that point in time?

Speaker 7 (14:45):
Jesse should so I should clarify that that question was
asked in the overtime segment where he specifically asks one
guest one question, so you're kind of not supposed to
chime in if you're the other guest when that's happening.
But yes, my my facial expression. I mean, look, I
was stone cold, like, what the hell are you talking about?
First off, I didn't know that we're worried about al

(15:06):
Qaeda anymore. I know we got some problems with ISIS,
and I know we got some problems with our hamas
kids at college campuses and the rest of it. But
if you watch the full extended version of it, which
people can find on YouTube, he then went on for
about a minute screaming about how bad these guys are,
but he never said what they're doing. They're mean and
they're bad, and I know him and I've been around him,

(15:26):
and they're bad and mean, and I know him and
been around him. And also he talks real fast. You
don't really know what he's saying. He's kind of old
and kooky at this point, and.

Speaker 2 (15:36):
You know, this is just standard. You get it. This
is standard Democrat one oh one.

Speaker 7 (15:41):
And you got to remember this is a guy who
was in the Bill Clinton machine Originally. You just scare
the hell out of people when it comes to Republicans.
So it almost felt to me like they're pretty much
done with Trump and now it's onto the new boogeyman,
and that will be basically Mike Johnson and you know,
Christian nationalism.

Speaker 2 (16:00):
Uh, Dave.

Speaker 1 (16:02):
It's hard to explain to people who are politically involved.
I mean everyone who watches your great show, right, everyone
who watches this show, We're all involved. I'm involved, you're involved.
Ere when watching is involved. It's hard to explain to
those people just how uninformed the normal American is, though,
and that's why this language is so effective that they
use it over and over and over again.

Speaker 2 (16:22):
Norm and norma they believe this cramp.

Speaker 7 (16:26):
Oh, they absolutely do. I don't know if you guys
have the clip cued up, but if you didn't see it,
there was a moment where James Carbal also brings up
Donald Trump very fine people on both sides, and I said, well,
Donald Trump did say that, but the very next sentence
was I'm not talking about the neo Nazis or the
white supremacist And when I said to him, he was
kind of like nah, And Bill was like, oh, he

(16:48):
worded it inelogently, and it's like, wait a minute. You
guys for years have been screaming. This was the proof
that Donald Trump was a Nazi. Not only that, Jesse,
do you remember that in Joe Biden's campaign launch video,
the video that he announced that he used to announce
his run for the presidency, he said he was running
because Donald Trump said, very fine people on both sides.

(17:11):
So what I tried to do on the show, and
you know what it's like going on these cable shows.
And by the way, I'm not throwing Bill under the
bus here because he brought me on and let me
said what Let me say whatever I want. But you know,
on these shows you have a limited window to get
in your good point before it just ends up becoming
a screaming match. So to me, it was like, you
just have to strategically figure out when to say things.

(17:32):
And that moment was beautiful because we've all been waiting
for somebody on mainstream to say to call out the
bs on very fine people on both sides. And then
they don't have much to go against it, you know.
He literally just kind of crumbled over in his seat,
as if I had whacked him with the finds, which
I was considering doing.

Speaker 1 (17:48):
If you want to watch Dave do it here it was,
we actually do have the clip.

Speaker 6 (17:51):
Oh, there you go, there you go, And good people
on both sides at Charlettsville. I don't know, did I
hear that or I make that up? Trump said they're
good people on both sides. He didn't say that, he
didn't not.

Speaker 7 (18:03):
Well, he said a sentence later he said, I'm not
talking about the white supremacists, and.

Speaker 6 (18:09):
Yeah, he's working on rush.

Speaker 2 (18:13):
It was badly phrased.

Speaker 7 (18:18):
I mean no, And actually, in this case, I wouldn't
agree with Bill either that it was badly phrased.

Speaker 2 (18:22):
It wasn't badly phrased.

Speaker 7 (18:23):
He said there are good people on both sides, meaning
the debate about what we do with monuments over controversial people,
right in this case Robert E.

Speaker 2 (18:31):
Lee.

Speaker 7 (18:32):
The next sentence was the condemnation. So I don't know
how he could have said it otherwise other than not
putting a period and maybe putting a comma in the sentence. So,
but it is kind of funny to me that that
even Bill Uh, you know, for years was ranting and
raving about this thing. Now it's been reduced to, oh,
he said it inelegantly. And that really is proof that
if you tell them the truth over time, and you

(18:54):
do not give them an inch, something you're quite good
at that over time, the truth cannot be refuted. And
I think hopefully I did a little bit of that
on Friday Night.

Speaker 1 (19:06):
Dave along those same lines, Roberty Lee being a controversial figure.
It's wild how much the Communists will decide the field
we play on, and we play on it. Okay, So
ROBERTIY Lee is a controversial figure according to who ROBERTI.
Lee's been dead for one hundred and fifty years. I've
never woken up a day in my life.

Speaker 2 (19:24):
It considered him controversial because he's.

Speaker 1 (19:25):
Freaking dead and gone and I'm never going to meet
him or any of his ancestors. And the point is
not really about Roberty Lee or the South or the North.
It's that we have these debates over the figures they
decide are controversial. Why don't we ever, dif have debates
about figures we decide are controversial, we always the debate
is on their terms, and that frustrates me to no end.

Speaker 7 (19:46):
That's a great point, and we have to change that.
It's actually more important than debating what marginal tax rates
are or what.

Speaker 2 (19:53):
Foreign policy is.

Speaker 7 (19:54):
That the cultural part of this that they set the agenda.
They basically put the menu in front of us. The
menu is not really what's happening in the kitchen. It's
just what they want us to see that is happening.

Speaker 2 (20:05):
In the kitchen.

Speaker 7 (20:05):
And then we end up losing all the time because
we don't have the full set of ingredients. We don't
know all the proteins that are back there and everything else.
We're just choosing off what they've selected. But you're totally right,
because of course, this will not end with say Robert E.
Lee or some supporter of slavery or anything else. We
know that this will come for Thomas Jefferson, who was
trying to free the slaves while also being a slave owner.

(20:28):
We know that this will come from George Washington, who
stepped down as the head of the army after the
War for Independence, even though everyone wanted him to remain
the head of the military and the president of the
United States, because he also had slaves. He only freed
his half of the slaves in his will, and Martha
kept her half. All of these people have complex histories, Jesse.
You're not going to believe this, Jesse. Kelly has a

(20:50):
complex history, and Dave Rubin has a complex history. And
they're not going to be happy with our statues either.

Speaker 2 (20:55):
Which I assume we're being built.

Speaker 7 (20:56):
I don't know where they're going to be, but yeah, well.

Speaker 1 (20:59):
The mine certainly should be Dave. Although I don't have
a complex history. It's just all bad. It's just a.

Speaker 2 (21:03):
Resume of crap.

Speaker 1 (21:05):
That's really what I am about this is there's nothing
to celebrate.

Speaker 7 (21:08):
You have one tall ass statue. Man, You're gonna have
the tallest statue in town.

Speaker 2 (21:12):
That that is for sure.

Speaker 1 (21:15):
Dave, you are the best of my man. Go watch
the rub And Report. It's one of my favorite. I
appreciate you, my brother very much. Uh you know, I
do want to statue what well, we can't be honest,
it's just do with me talking here. I want a
statue where I don't know a bunch.

Speaker 2 (21:37):
Of places I would like it to be.

Speaker 1 (21:41):
I was gonna say Marble, but I feel like marble
would get dirty too fast. I've learned that I've had
these white shoes and they get torn out. Maybe bronze,
a bronze statue. Why shouldn't have a brone statue? Anyway,
I'm mister producer. We're gonna work on that after the show.
Until then, we'll focus a little bit on the media.
Those apparatchrics are up the nogad, of course, like they

(22:02):
always are in this country. Now, let's do it. Let's
do this real quick. I need nutrition. You need nutrition, wine.
You're a living thing, flesh and blood. You need water,
you need nutrition, vitamins, minerals, omega, oils, probiotics, and you
need everything, right, so does your dog. We give ourselves nutrition.

(22:27):
I'm gonna eat my vegues. I'm gonna take this motive, ittam,
and I'm gonna do it. We give our selves nutrition,
and then we give our dogs dog food, and we
wonder why they die at ten years old.

Speaker 2 (22:37):
Pour rough greens on your dog's food.

Speaker 1 (22:40):
It's an all natural nutritional supplement created by naturopathic doctor
Dennis Black. You will see a physical difference in your dog.
Your dog has health problems that you didn't know. You
could make disappear. Pour rough Greens on your dog's food.
All you have to do is call them free jumpstart

(23:02):
trial bags eight three three three three my dog, or
go to Roughgreens dot com slash Jesse.

Speaker 2 (23:10):
All right, we'll be back.

Speaker 1 (23:21):
Well, the link between social media and the state apparatus
is one that should be apparent to everybody at this
point in time. Social media, whether or not you're on there,
and I'm not encouraging you to get on there, but
if you're on there or not, it is very, very powerful,
and it is controlled by our enemies, and they're working
together to censor people.

Speaker 2 (23:41):
Like you, people like me.

Speaker 1 (23:43):
This is the latest and greatest is out of YouTube
journey me joining me now? Curtis out of course, the
managing editor of the Great NewsBusters, Curtis.

Speaker 2 (23:52):
What's happening at YouTube?

Speaker 4 (23:54):
Well, apparently there's emails now between the White House and
YouTube Tube saying that you know, you should really look
into censoring users who have contrary views about vaccines and
the COVID nineteen pandemic. As we know, big tech and
social media and the White House have all really been
working together over the last few years to crack down

(24:17):
on Americans and their free speech rights. Originally, it was
the origins of the COVID nineteen pandemic, regarding whether it
was a came from a lab in China, which I mean,
why wouldn't it have or if somebody just ate bat soup,
as the jokes go. But now it has to do
with you know, just COVID in general. In this one,

(24:38):
the YouTube file is very similar to the Twitter files
show that there were emails between White House officials, particularly
a let me get this title right here, director of
Digital Strategy Rob Flannerty, asking Google YouTube's parent company how
they could crack down on vaccine misinformation and discuss ways
the White House can partner in your product work.

Speaker 2 (25:01):
Huh. That sounds like collusion to me.

Speaker 4 (25:05):
So of course, this still really doesn't get any intention
on the major broadcast networks. This hasn't got any attention
on cable either, because these networks are fine with it,
and they would like nothing more than to get a
slice of the pie themselves.

Speaker 2 (25:19):
Amazing the kind of country we live in now.

Speaker 1 (25:21):
Along those exact same lines, you guys are doing some research.
Looks like they're already censoring the twenty twenty four political
opposition to Joe Biden.

Speaker 4 (25:32):
Right exactly. I mean this is you know, this is intentional.
This is election interference at its finest, as you can
see on the headline there that we have found that
big techat censored Biden opponents one hundred and sixty two times.
And that's just not just Republicans, but according you know,
Democratic opponents, Independence, RFK Junior, even the Republicans that the
liberal media will try and tell you were acceptable candidates

(25:55):
in the primary, like Francis Suarez even got dinged one
via social media. And what we mean by this is
we looked at YouTube, all those platforms there in times,
whether you know, things had warning labels issued or accounts
were just taken down entirely. And the fact that Donald

(26:15):
Trump really isn't on Twitter for or x for example,
and that he's still at number five there with nine
dings just goes to show how desperate the libool media
are to crowd out any and all opposition to the
to just people who want to point out that Biden
can't stand up and Biden doesn't have a pause, and
that you can't afford anything right now. That's really what

(26:36):
this is about. They're much they're willing to talk about
all kinds of things. You know, really like the stock
market's doing great, and you know, things about Ukraine or
all these other issues, but they're not really willing to
talk about the issues that the American people care about.
They'll talk about Liz Cheney's book because that's that's really
important out there, but they won't talk about, you know,

(26:58):
the economy and how Americans actually feel.

Speaker 1 (27:02):
You know what else they won't talk about is the
fact that Joe Biden is compromised, endlessly corrupt and compromised
in Normy norm and Norman Norma don't have any idea
because the traditional media sources in this country won't talk
about it, will they, Curtis.

Speaker 4 (27:17):
No, And there's dozens and dozens of examples that we
have found just in the last you know, three four years.
Let's look at the five million dollars that Joe Biden
allegedly received from Bearisma, you know, the forty thousand dollars
check that Joe Biden received laundered through his brother Jim
Biden in the Chinese energy company CFC. Or the nearly

(27:41):
two dozen White House visits of Hunter Biden's business partner,
Eric Schrwin had at the Obama White House. Or the
fact that Joe Biden used in alias for over eighty
two thousand emails, And those kinds of examples are just
a small fraction of the ones that we've been looking
at at NewsBusters, and they haven't received any attention on

(28:04):
the major broadcast networks ABCCBS, NBC. They're willing to talk
about gag orders, or they're willing to talk about Donald
Ron DeSantis, you know, doing terribly versus Nikki Haley according
to Disney owned to ABC. So of course they have
their own acts to grind, or they're just not talking
about the campaign at all. And I think that's really
important as well, Jesse, that they're not just talking about

(28:26):
bind scandals, they're knowing the election altogether, hoping the American
people can be as tuned out about the election for
as long as possible. We saw this in twenty fourteen
when I first came on to NewsBusters in the MRC,
they didn't talk about the midterms on ABC up until
a few weeks before the election because they knew it
was going to go badly for them, and I think
that's what they're looking to do this time. So instead

(28:48):
of censoring platforms, censoring users on big tech platforms, such
as Twitter with the New York Post story or not
talking about it.

Speaker 2 (28:55):
They're just not going to talk about it at all.

Speaker 1 (29:00):
Speaking of NewsBusters, Curtis, George Soros is somebody who's been
on the lips of conservatives for a very, very, very
long time. Anyone who pays any attention at all knows
the name.

Speaker 2 (29:11):
Of George Soros.

Speaker 1 (29:12):
But George Soros is eight thousand years old and the
bags underneath his eyes are hitting his knees.

Speaker 2 (29:17):
At this point, George isn't running anything.

Speaker 1 (29:20):
Alex, his son, is the one running things now and
no one.

Speaker 2 (29:24):
Even knows about this guy Curtis. Who is he?

Speaker 4 (29:27):
Well, I mean, he's really his grandfather with a social
media game. And I think that's what's really the important
takeaway from all of this. The fact is that he's
the guy who posts willingly posts pictures with his grandfather
or his father and other family members, or he is
posting with politicians talking about thanks for their help. He's

(29:48):
doing it out in the open now, whereas George Soros
would really just give the money to these groups or
to candidates and we kin't have to follow the money trail.
The thing with Alex now is he's just doing this
out in the open. He's not only giving money away,
he's showing pictures, he's posting them on social media. He's
talking about the partnerships that he and his family are doing.

(30:10):
And we're just supposed to think we're stupid in all
of this. We're not supposed to see what's going on
here because he knows he has a complicit media on
his side that any challenge the sore OF's family is
seen as anti Semitic, you know, because of his father's
life in Europe, you know, during World War Two. But again,
I think this is just an insult to the American

(30:31):
people that he can post pictures like this on social
media and get away with it.

Speaker 1 (30:37):
Sure is, Curtis, my brother. I appreciate you very much, ma'am.
All right, who is attacking our ships? You see over
the weekend in the Red Sea? I love saying the
Red Sea because it makes me think about Moses and
parties anyway, But in the Red Sea one of our
naval vessels and some commercial vessels were attacked. What who

(31:02):
would be so bold?

Speaker 2 (31:03):
After all? This is America? After all?

Speaker 1 (31:05):
Right, Let's talk to Christina and Francis about that next
before we get to Christina and Francis. Let's talk about
well Soros. Let just talk about the Soross. You know
what they've done, right, they're the ones who've taken over
the DA offices in this country. Why are people on
the right prosecuted to no end and people on the

(31:27):
left are sprung from jail the second they go in
because our legal system has turned evil sorels. Money is
backed them to the point it turned evil. They've turned
against you. You need an attorney. Normal people need an attorney,
especially if you carry a firearm. If you carry a firearm,

(31:49):
well only use it the right way. Do you think
that matters to the next comedy? Scumbag DA? Get an attorney.
That's what Attorneys for Freedom's all about. They're for normal people,
not insurance. An attorney twenty four hours a day, seven
days a week. All you have to do is go
to attorneys on retainer dot us promo code Jesse, get

(32:11):
an attorney.

Speaker 2 (32:12):
We'll be back, Okay.

Speaker 1 (32:22):
Who's attacking our warships? And why what are we doing
about it?

Speaker 2 (32:26):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (32:27):
Let's talk to the ladies from Breitbart about this. They're
the experts. I am not joining me now. Francis Martel,
Breitbart News International Editor, and Christina Wong breit Bart News
Pentagon correspondent.

Speaker 2 (32:39):
Christina, Okay, let's start with you.

Speaker 1 (32:41):
We find out that in the Red Sea, one of
our naval vessels and some commercial ships are being attacked.

Speaker 2 (32:48):
Okay, what does that mean? Though?

Speaker 1 (32:49):
That's quite a headline. Who's doing the attacking? Did anyone
get hurd what happened?

Speaker 2 (32:54):
Yeah?

Speaker 8 (32:54):
So the Hoofies, they are a Shiah militia group in Yemen.
They've been locked in a civil war with the US
and Saudi backed government for several years now. They attacked
the US destroyer and also commercial ships, and so what
happened was several commercial ships were attacked and a US

(33:18):
destroyer in the area responded and while it was responding
to those attacks, it was attacked by drones and presumably
armed drones, and the US ship shot them down. So
this is a severe escalation. It's apparently it tied to
what's going on with Israel and Hamas. The Huthis, they

(33:40):
are Iran backed, they backed Palestine, the Palestinians. There's a
military spokesperson for the Huthis who specifically said the Huthis
are attacking Israeli linked ships in response to Israel's offense
against Hamas. So the Biden administration and the Pentagon, they're

(34:03):
trying to say, oh, these are just attacks against commercial ships.
They're trying to separate them from what's going on and
their support for Israel. They're trying to not widen the conflict.
But obviously this is linked.

Speaker 2 (34:17):
Okay.

Speaker 1 (34:18):
Francis helped me understand something. It will help many people
understand this.

Speaker 2 (34:23):
Okay, so Iran.

Speaker 1 (34:24):
Buys these dirt balls, a bunch of drones, they use
it to attack our ships.

Speaker 2 (34:29):
Why is this being permitted?

Speaker 1 (34:30):
Give us some kind of knowledge of the larger political landscape.

Speaker 2 (34:34):
Yemen is a dump.

Speaker 1 (34:36):
I doubt these people were able to stop us anyway.

Speaker 2 (34:38):
Why is this something that's being allowed?

Speaker 9 (34:41):
Well, I think the most important material fact of the
Biden administration regarding the Hookies is that in February twenty
twenty one, the Biden administration decided to remove the Hoofies
from our list of foreign terrorist organization. And the reason
given for that was was not that they weren't terrorist anymore.
Blincoln was very explicit that they were clearly terrorists, but

(35:04):
we removed them from that list. So that we could
allow money to come in because it would allegedly create
more avenues for humanitarian aid for the population which is
facing famine toolera. It's a really horrible situation over there.
But of course what ended up happening is that the
hoofies used that money to arm themselves, to recruit child soldiers,

(35:27):
and to commit terrorism. So I just think that's the
first place we have to start with the bigger context
of how are the hookies this well prepared to create
this much chaos in the red seat?

Speaker 1 (35:40):
Okay, Christina, explain this to me. Then the navy, you say,
they stop all this. Is there a source beyond Iran
where we can go to where these people are receiving these.

Speaker 2 (35:53):
Loads of drones.

Speaker 1 (35:55):
Where are these drones coming from ship directly from Iran?
How are we allowing these things to get into the
country if there be used to attack our people.

Speaker 8 (36:02):
Yes, they are definitely supplied by Iran. These are advanced
ballistic missiles that the Huthis do not have by themselves.
So much like the Iranian proxy forces that are in
Iraq and Assyria attacking US forces there, Iran has a
vast network that they're using to supply all these proxy

(36:25):
groups to create trouble for the US in the region,
and the US is recognizing that Iran is behind it.
But so far the response has been very feeble. It's
taken out some ammunition dumps in Syria, it's taken a
few hits at several militia groups in Iraq, and I

(36:48):
believe just a rock now. So there's only been maybe
a handful of responses in response to more than seventy
four attacks so far on US troops in Iraq, in Syria,
and so the Biden administration is saying, oh, we don't
want to you know, so far, deterrence has worked. We've
searched all these assets to the Middle East. We don't

(37:09):
want to widen this war between Israel and Hamas. That
deterrence is clearly not working.

Speaker 1 (37:15):
Okay, Francis, let's talk a little bit about this Israel
Hamas thing. I remember when this whole dust up began,
Hezbolah speaking of Iran.

Speaker 2 (37:25):
They were amassing on Israel's northern border.

Speaker 1 (37:27):
We were told thousands of these militia types were amassing,
that Israel was going to get spit roasted from both ends.

Speaker 2 (37:34):
And then the.

Speaker 1 (37:35):
American military sent over to carrier groups and Israel has
not been spit roasted. Is that because we're there.

Speaker 10 (37:42):
That's a big part of it, for sure.

Speaker 9 (37:44):
I think a bigger Another aspect to it, maybe not
a bigger one, is that Hezbola is part of the
same network as Hamas.

Speaker 10 (37:51):
Of course they get money from Iran, but they're a little.

Speaker 9 (37:54):
Bit competitive, right because hesbealis Chiai and Hamas is Sunni.

Speaker 10 (37:59):
There were pro Hesbela writers.

Speaker 9 (38:02):
In Lebanon who were making fun of Hamas because Hamas
leaders live in luxury and potter while you know, the
hobbies have to do the hard work on the ground.
So I think there wasn't a really popular desire on
the part of Hesbla to risk it all on Hamas's They.

Speaker 10 (38:18):
Were willing to make some threats.

Speaker 9 (38:20):
Hassan Masarala gave this big speech where everyone expected him
to declare war on Israel, and then he just generally
said he didn't like Israel. He didn't say anything new.
So I think our presence there is a big deterrent.
But there's also some unresolved tension between Hamas and the SCHII,
including the.

Speaker 2 (38:38):
Hoof uh Francis.

Speaker 1 (38:42):
Let's talk for a minute, because you have a story
up about Israel in Ukraine. What's the connection there? Israel
hurting Ukraine? What's going on?

Speaker 9 (38:52):
Well, there's no direct relationship, but President Zelenski has said
that he believes that there's a relationship in terms of
the international attention. He has come out and said, you know,
only the blind can't see that all of this attention
was put on the Ukraine war and now it's been
redirected the Western attention towards Israel, and that that hurts

(39:16):
Zelenski's effort to continue getting support, both monetary and military
support for his own war.

Speaker 10 (39:24):
And he's been very supportive of Israel.

Speaker 9 (39:26):
He was one of the first to come out and
say every world leader should visit after October seventh. But
he's also been transparently frustrated that while he has been
positive about supporting Israel, there's also only so much that
the West can do.

Speaker 10 (39:41):
There's only so much money, and he knows that.

Speaker 9 (39:44):
There are going to be resources redirected to fighting Hamas
that he believes would have gone to fighting Russia.

Speaker 1 (39:52):
Christina, why is the Pentagon need one hundred and fourteen
million dollars for diversity, equity and inclusion?

Speaker 8 (40:00):
Who knows No one knows where this money is going to.
It's over two hundred and seventy million if you count
beginning since twenty twenty two. It's a black hole. I mean,
no one knows where the money's going to. There, it's
very vague. There was a report put out by the
Pentagon on extremism. I think there were like eighty something

(40:23):
or less, you know, extremist instances out of two million
active duty forces. It you know, who knows where this
is going? It seems like just part of the d
O D grift. I mean the d D failed it's
six budget budget audit. You know, if it needs money,
maybe it should look at the DEI budget that no

(40:44):
one knows what it's doing. Yeah, so you know when
the DD complains about not having money, maybe they should
just raid you know DEI.

Speaker 2 (40:54):
Yeah, sounds good.

Speaker 1 (40:56):
Christina Francis, thank you both ladies so much. I appreciate
it very much. All right, you know what we need
to light in the mood.

Speaker 2 (41:04):
That was a lot. We need it. So whenever you want.

Speaker 1 (41:07):
To lighten your mood, checking in with Sheila Jackson Lee.
She's a Houston congresswoman. If you don't know her, is
always a good time. So we'll check in with her
and how her mayoral campaign is going in just a moment.

Speaker 2 (41:21):
Before we do that, let's do this.

Speaker 1 (41:25):
Everybody's stick or shocked right now, right inflation interest rates.
Everybody looking at their banking statement going oh my gosh, okay,
so we got.

Speaker 2 (41:34):
To cut costs. Time share. Getting rid of that. Time
share would be a great way to cut costs, wouldn't it.
Oh Jesse, that sounds good. I'd love to, but I can't.
I'm stuck.

Speaker 1 (41:44):
You're not stuck. You think you're stuck. Time share companies
lie to you. Oh you're stuck forever. You're stuck for life.
Pay your annual fees every year. Stop paying the annual
freaking fees and call the lo Star Transfer instead. Ninety
nine percent of the time when someone calls, they get

(42:06):
legally and permanently out of their time share. Your one
phone call away from being free as a bird.

Speaker 2 (42:13):
So make the call eight.

Speaker 1 (42:15):
Four four three one zero two six four six or
go to lone star transfer dot Com.

Speaker 2 (42:22):
We'll be back all right. It is time to lighten
the mood. You know who Sheila Jackson Lee is.

Speaker 1 (42:36):
See everybody in the Houston area. They all laughed and
rolled their eyes when I just said her name. But
most other people don't know. She don't know the congressman
from various areas well.

Speaker 2 (42:46):
She's a moron, all right.

Speaker 1 (42:47):
She's one of the various congressmen representing the Houston area
in a complete and utter moron.

Speaker 2 (42:54):
In every possible way. It's honestly, it's difficult.

Speaker 1 (42:56):
It's difficult to get mad at her because she's so
incredibly stupid.

Speaker 2 (43:01):
She's the one.

Speaker 1 (43:02):
Remember it came out recently she somebody recorded her and
she was chewing out her staff and called somebody a
fat body and all kinds of stuff. Well, another more
on things we were just talking about. She has an
ad out now she's running for mayor. She's a congressman.
She's running to be mayor of Houston. And this is
the latest dad they have.

Speaker 11 (43:24):
Now, I'm running to be your mayor because if we're
going to bring down crime, picks out streets, and bring
good paying jobs here, then Houston needs a champion who's
ready to fight for what's right.

Speaker 2 (43:35):
And I am see that little part there at the end.
Vote on December seventh.

Speaker 1 (43:46):
That's gonna be difficult because the election is December ninth, gosh.

Speaker 2 (43:51):
That's so Sheila Jackson Lee.

Speaker 12 (43:53):
That might be the most Sheila Jackson Lee thing in
the history of Sheila Jackson Lee things only No, wait,
it probably comes in second compared to Shila Jackson Lee
announcing on camera that she's unqualified for things and only
got in because she's a diversity higher.

Speaker 11 (44:15):
But I rise today as a clear recipient of a
affirmative action.

Speaker 1 (44:23):
That's a clear recipient, no doubt about it.

Speaker 2 (44:28):
I'll see you tomorrow.
