Speaker 1 (00:10):
This is a Jesse Kelly show.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 1 (00:19):
Let's have some fun.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
On a Tuesday of Magnificent Tuesday, and we are going
to talk about a few things that I'm gonna give
you a heads up right now.
Speaker 1 (00:32):
I've fallen way behind.
Speaker 2 (00:33):
We'll do a big email round up tonight because you
have so many thoughts about taking out the cartels and
what Doge is doing, and you're concerned about immigration, and
there's a lot of things I want to get out
of the way, So we'll talk about that. Talk about
this fraud, and look, it's hard to say it's anything
other than fraud taking place in social security across the
(00:53):
entire federal government. The Democrat Party continues to be completely lost.
In fact, they are trapped. That's always a good time.
Oh that and so much more coming up tonight on
the world famous Jesse Kelly Show. I actually want to
open the show about none of these things. It's about
(01:13):
something we have touched on before. But I'm seeing so
much chatter out there that is insane and naive and
I wanted to address it. And when I when I
say insane and naive, I'm specifically talking about the Mexican cartels,
the Mexican drug cartels. So let's let's have a talk.
(01:38):
I know this sounds out of left field, but it's not.
It's on my mind. And so let's get our hearts prepared.
Let's get our minds where they should be, because from
what I'm seeing, our minds are not at all where
they should be. And what do we always say, language
leads to mindset. Mindset leads to performance. I see a
(02:01):
ton of Let's take out the cartel. Just send a
drone down there and take out the cartels. Okay, first,
let's remember this goes back a very long ways, importing
drugs from south of the border into this country.
Speaker 1 (02:19):
This really got hot with.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
All the Colombian cocaine cartels. We're talking to Pablo Escobar,
that's the name. Everybody would know, the Ochoa Brothers. If
you nerd out on this stuff, you know, it was
a lot more than just Pablo Escobar.
Speaker 1 (02:33):
But down in that part of the world.
Speaker 2 (02:36):
They figured out how to make cocaine out of a plant.
Cocaine got extremely popular in the United States of America
in the seventies and eighties. The American people have money
to burn. We take that for granted, I do.
Speaker 1 (02:51):
I do.
Speaker 2 (02:51):
I look back at the times when I called myself poor,
and I still ate. I still wait two today at
least maybe it may not have been three, and it
may not have been stakes, but that was eating. We
have a lot of money as a country. People with
wealth and free time will oftentimes make some not so
(03:13):
great decisions. If you've ever been a young man or
young woman in your teens or twenties, you probably have
made one or two bad ones yourself. And as a country,
we developed an appetite for drugs, started getting it into
the country. Okay, it's becoming a problem. Now we're having
shootouts in the streets of Miami. Miami was ravaged by
(03:35):
all this stuff starts to get the attention of the
Reagan administration and the quote War on Drugs launches in
the overdrive. They're all patrolling the coast or cracking down
on things. We may or may not have shot Pablo
Escobar and then said the Colombians did it. You understand,
we got involved, We got extremely involved. But actually, there's
(03:59):
a book I'm gonna tell you about one that you
may find fascinating. Let's talk about the Pablo Escobar thing.
Because this is going to bring me to where we
are today. Just to just stay with me, we're talking
about taking out the Mexican drug cartels. We we sent
the baddest dudes on the planet down to help quote
help the Colombians take out the Mexican drug cartels. Who
(04:23):
are the baddest dudes on the planet where there are
a lot of really bad dudes on this planet. In
my opinion, and this is an opinion that is widely
shared by the Specops type guys. I know, I'm certainly
not that I was a very average four year marine grunt.
I'm not some stud, but the super Spec Op types
will generally say, Delta Force, they're about as good as
(04:45):
it gets. Old Sergeant Major of mine, in fact, he's
probably listening to the sound of my voice right now,
was one of these types of guys, you know, always
training with this group and that group, in this group
and that group. You ask Kim and he'll tell you
in half a second, Oh, they're the best there are.
They're the best there are. We sent the best dudes,
the baddest dudes on the planet down to Colombia to
(05:09):
kill one man. And if you would like to walk
through that saga. I'm not going to walk you through it. Now,
go pick up the book Killing Pablo. I don't know
who wrote it, Chris. We looked it up real quick.
The book is called Killing Pablo. It's a very easy read,
in a short read. It's not some gigantic book. I
have the paperback at the house. I read it years ago.
It's something you can get through in a couple hours.
(05:31):
But who was it? Yes, we speaking of paperwack the
anti e communist matifact. Quick, Chris, stop it, everybody stop
it anyway. The book is called Killing Pablo One Last Time.
It's about the hunt for Pablo Escobar, Mark Boalden.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
Chris says. The guy's name Mark Bowden. Excellent book, wonderful book.
Speaker 2 (05:48):
We sent the baddest dudes on the planet into Colombia,
working hand in hand with the Colombian government. Remember the
federal government of Colombia was also against Pablo Escobar, so
we had the support, the assistance of the Colombian government.
It wasn't easy. It took a long time. How does
(06:12):
that happen? How could it possibly take a long time.
We have the cooperation of the government of the country,
so it's not like we're having a low crawl through
the sewers. We have the baddest dudes on the planet,
The Delta Force guys are there working with the government.
We're trying to kill one guy.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Why is it so difficult.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
Well, let's pause on that for a moment, because there
are realities of life, and then there are the caricatures we.
Speaker 1 (06:46):
Invent in our mind of things.
Speaker 2 (06:48):
Okay, when it comes to drug cartels, the average American,
the average law abiding citizen, has a second.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
I said, drug cartel.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
An image popped into your head of a drug cartel guy,
didn't it. Maybe it's a guy who's in some black
ski mask. Maybe you unfortunately came across some video of
them cutting out some living person's heart online, or maybe
maybe you pictured Pablo Escobar. But whatever you picture and
(07:22):
whatever moral judgments you pass along to the drug cartels,
I'm not telling you you're wrong. These are barbaric people,
people who do barbaric things. What you must understand is
in their communities. Oftentimes this is not universal, but oftentimes
(07:44):
they are not at all that caricature. Why did it
take so long to finally track down and kill Pablo Escobar?
How could that possibly happen. We had the best dudes
down there. Well, Pablo Subar to this day, to this
day is celebrated in certain circles in Mediin by the people.
(08:09):
And I don't mean ten people get together in a
room and say cheers to Pablo. I'm talking parades and parties.
Why this big scary murderer shipping drugs outside of their well,
just laying this out for you. Let's say you're poor,
(08:30):
and I mean Mexican poor, third world kind of country, poor,
the kind where your house doesn't have windows and it's
ever been in neighborhoods like that I have in different
places across the globe. Poor, as in, you have two bedrooms,
everyone sleeps in the same room. You'll hopefully knock out
(08:52):
a decent meal today. Poor, and along comes somebody who
gives you something to eat. He puts new clothes on
your children. In fact, he not only builds them a school,
he hires school teachers. Your children now have fresh clothes,
three hots, and a cot, and they're learning reading, writing,
(09:14):
and arithmetic. I'm not telling you to sing the praises
of Pablo Escobar, but if you go from that situation
to close with meals, oh, look a brand new soccer field. Oh,
I'm a devoutly religious person. I'm a let's say, Catholic.
Pablo built us a brand new cathedral and gave our
priest a place to sleep at night. Do you think,
(09:36):
in if you're being honest with yourself, you don't have
to email me because you'll lie. I lie about this
stuff too. You want to lie about your moral failings.
Do you think, maybe, just maybe you would feel a
sense of loyalty to that human being. Do you think,
even if you knew his sins, the cocaine and the
murder and the vevveev, do you think, even knowing his sins,
(09:58):
that person would have a place in your heart? Do
you think he clothed your children, sent them to school,
took care of your priest. Do you think one night,
ten o'clock, you're putting the kids down, there's a knock
at the door, and Pablo Escobar is there at your door,
(10:19):
saying the cops are after me. May I come in
and have a place to stay and hide out? Do
you think you would welcome him into that home. I
only told you this little story about Pablo because it's
time to get our minds right about Mexico. Now we'll
keep walking through this and then we'll move on to
(10:41):
some other things before we do that. Speaking of lives,
we save lives as often as we can. Well, you
and Preborn do. Preborn saves two hundred lives every single day.
Two hundred people a day walk the planet because of
(11:03):
what you and Preborn do.
Speaker 1 (11:05):
Now, what do they do.
Speaker 2 (11:06):
Well, they don't just say their pro life. They don't
just throw a fancy banquet somewhere. Preborn gives free ultrasounds
to women who are about to abort their babies. When
a woman hears a heartbeat, she will choose life almost
every time. If we can just get her in the door. Hey,
it's free, Come on in, get her in the door,
(11:28):
introduce her to her baby through ultrasound. We can save
that baby's life. Twenty eight dollars is what the ultrasound costs.
Remember it's tax deductible. You're doing taxes right now. Would
you like a bigger deduction next year? You can give
them as much as you want. Preborn dot com slash Jesse.

Speaker 3 (11:51):
We'll be back the Jesse Kelly Show on air and
online at Jesse kellyshow dot com.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
It is that Jesse Kelly's show on a Wonderful Tuesday,
reminding you you can email the show Jesse at Jesse
kellyshow dot com. Going a different place to open up
the show to I just because I feel like we
have to adjust our mindset when it comes to the cartels,
taking out the cartels, everything that is about to come.
(12:20):
I am not trying to bring anybody down. I'm trying
to adjust our mindset because I'm seeing a lot Just send.
Speaker 1 (12:27):
A drone and take them out.
Speaker 2 (12:29):
And so we're gonna talk like adults here, like people
who didn't watch one movie Clear in Present Danger and
think it's that easy. So back to what we were discussing,
why did it take so long to get Pablo Escobar
in the Colombian cartels? Why did it take so long
to take out Pablo? Because Pablo obviously a murderer, a
(12:49):
drug dealer, all those bad things are all true, yes,
but he was ingrained in his community, part of his community,
and therefore it was hard to get her hands on him,
hard to nail him down, hard to find him. And
that's with the finest troops on the planet Delta force
hunting him with the cooperation of the Colombian federal government. Now,
(13:15):
the cartel trade shifted into Mexico because, as we discussed earlier,
American federal government started smashing the Colombian cartels, killing Pablo Escobar,
grabbing things in Florida. As soon as Florida got cut off,
relatively cut off to the drug trade, the cartels just
(13:35):
simply went looking for a different one, and they found
one overland through Mexico. Now Mexico is a long history
in its own right, and I'm not going to get
into all that, but they were already well established criminal
elements in Mexico, organized criminal elements who were already bringing
some drugs into the United States of America. I don't
(13:56):
want to act like it all just got created because
the Colombians came to them.
Speaker 1 (14:00):
But they already were bringing drugs in.
Speaker 2 (14:02):
They were already relatively organized, They had the right people
paid off in America, they had the right routes into
the country. And so the Mexicans sat down with the
Colombians and said, hey, look, Colombia, you make the cocaine,
we will get it into the country for you for
a cut. Of course, the Colombians were really left without
(14:22):
any better option at this point in time, so they said, sure,
have at it. Frankly, it worked out pretty well for them. Yeah,
they had to give up some money, but it's no
longer Colombians getting gunned down all the time. Here you
can have some of the booger sugar, get it into
America for us and.
Speaker 1 (14:36):
All will be well.
Speaker 2 (14:38):
And after this happened, the Mexican drug cartel power exploded.
For a very very brief time. They actually were able
to unite as one mega cartel. And you better get
down on your knees and thank God on high tonight
that that only lasted about fifteen minutes before they started
(15:00):
wrecking each other. Because if they were ever one unified group,
they would be easily more powerful than the Mexican government.
Bet they broke up into a bunch of different cartels.
And now you understand how the game works today. You
get all that. Now let's discuss the actual what it
looks like on the ground. Because you've heard of the
(15:21):
Zetas they've rebranded now, but you've heard of the Gulf
Cartel and the Sineloa cartel. You've heard of these things.
The different cartels control different portions of the American border.
That's the ultimate goal. You want to control a portion
of the American border where you can bring your product here.
(15:42):
The product is not always drugs, it's not always fentanyl,
it's not always cocaine, marijuana, whatever they're bringing across. Many
of them have dedicated themselves solely to human beings. Now again,
the largest slave trade in the history of the world
is taking place on America's southern border. Well, at least
it was during the Biden administration. And remember Democrats did
that on purpose. But setting that aside, they're fighting each
(16:05):
other constantly for control, operational control of the border so
they may bring their products in. Now, remember when I've
talked about Pablo Escobar ingraining himself into the community. Well,
let's talk about well, just the Cineloa cartel, the largest one.
They're more of like an umbrella cartel, but the largest one,
(16:25):
most powerful. There's a story out there of a man
going to meet the then head of a Sineloa cartel.
Speaker 1 (16:36):
There's a story about him driving up the road.
Speaker 2 (16:40):
This is Choppo Chopo Guzmaan was the then head of
the Cineloa cartel. He's driving up the road essentially what
amounts to a large driveway to Choppo's house. And he
notices body parts in all the trees that are chained
into the trees. Oh look, there's a leg, there's someone's torso,
there's someone's head. Done as an intent immindation tactic. So
(17:02):
that's the kind of thing these people are capable of.
Only go ask the people of Sineloa what they think
of Chapo Guzman. I'm not defending Chapo Guzman. I'm not
defending the cartels, and I have to keep throwing that
out there. But ask them what they think. Ask them
(17:22):
who built that church in town, Ask them who paved
the roads. They were hurting for a doctor. Asked them
where they went to go find a doctor. I know
we have this image in our head, and it's not
even an inaccurate image, it's an incomplete image. We have
(17:44):
this image in our head of the Mexican cartel Bandido
wanting to cut someone's face off while he's still alive.
And yes, we know he's brutal, we know he's murderous.
We know they make a bunch of money, but we
assume because they're quote bad guys. And I realize they
are bad guys we assume to the people they live around,
(18:07):
they are the bad guy. Now, yes, in many cases
people who live around them hate them and dislike them.
But in many cases they're part of the community, part
of the community, ingrained in the community. And I'll finish
(18:27):
up this talk getting our minds right for what's I'm
what I'm worried is coming, And just a few before
I get to that, let me get your mind right
when it comes to your dog's nutrition. Your dog does
not get vitamins and minerals, omega oils, antioxidants, probiotics. He
(18:48):
doesn't get any of the things he needs from dog food.
He isn't that wild to think about that. We will
have dogs. We love our dogs. I love fret who'll
give them dog food their whole lives, And unbeknownst to us,
our dogs will spend their entire lives never getting any
nutrition except for the table scraps the kids slip to
(19:08):
them under the dinner table. Isn't that crazy? You don't
have to have a dog like that. You don't have
to have a dog that dies too early. You're at
the vet every other month. Start sprinkling rough greens on
your dog's food. All natural nutritional supplement for your dog.
Remember they also have miogreens for your cat. I don't
want to forget that if you're a cat person.
Speaker 4 (19:30):
Give your puppy real nutrition, whether they're old or a
puppy free jumpstart trial bags and you will see differences
in your dog eight three three three three My Dog
or Roughgreens dot com slash Jesse.
Speaker 1 (19:47):
We'll be back, what Chris, We can make jokes. It's fine,
you get that right. The Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 2 (19:54):
It is the Jesse Cally Show. And before I forget
next hour. About halfway through next hour, we're going to
have the Attorney General for the State of Missouri on,
Andrew Bailey.
Speaker 1 (20:04):
I have some things I want to ask him.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Mainly I want him to come on the show because
I have a plan to commit some crimes in the
state of Missouri, and I want to make sure I
have some friends in high places who will be able
to get me out of those crimes. You understand how
all this works? Sorry, quit back to the drug cartels.
We're trying to get our minds right here, Okase you're
just now joining I said, we are going after the cartels.
Speaker 1 (20:26):
What we know is we have troops on the border.
Speaker 2 (20:28):
The Tenth Mountain has already sent five hundred troops to
Fort Wachuka in Arizona. We have the Green Berets in
Mexico training the Mexican government. The Trump administration is taking
the cartel problem deadly, deadly, deadly serious. That's a good thing.
I want them to take the problems seriously. My issue
(20:49):
is the chatter I continue to see on television, on
the radio, on social media from all of us, where
it seems like our minds are not at all prepared
for what has come. Just send a drone and take
them out, is what I see. A lot of that,
a lot of that. Now back to what we were discussing.
The Mexican cartels are ingrained in their communities, but it's
(21:12):
actually much worse than that.
Speaker 1 (21:13):
It's not just that they're ingrained.
Speaker 2 (21:15):
In the communities, remember, it's that they're ingrained in the government's,
state and local government. So pause on this for a moment.
Kind of along the same lines, but I swear I'm
changing the subject. It's just a little side road. Have
you been looking at the deportation numbers in the country
(21:37):
gone down quite a bit, haven't they?
Speaker 1 (21:39):
Now?
Speaker 2 (21:40):
Why is that Trump administration is dead set on this issue.
They're not backing off, they're not failing. I'm not yelling
about it. Why is that, Well, roughly half of the
United States of America are controlled by evil demons known
as Democrats. Democrats believe in not deporting people. Democrats believe
(22:01):
in importing as many foreign barbarians as possible. And so
because the illegal immigrants in states like California are protected
by the government of California, our all powerful federal government.
I saw this stuff. They're having a hard time getting
their hands on these people to ship them back from
whence they came. Now, that is in a civilized country
(22:25):
like the United States of America, dealing with a government
of California. Now, let's go down to Mexico, where the
cartels are not only an ingrained criminal organization inside of
their communities, they control half of the Mexican states, half
of the states, and.
Speaker 1 (22:46):
The federal government.
Speaker 2 (22:48):
If they don't control the federal government, so they don't
want to overspeak there. They're very, very ingrained and involved
in the federal government. But the states, that's not even
up for debate. How many times have you heard brand
and Darby come on this show and explain that Mexico
is not a failed state, but it is a fragile
one because the Cartels control half of the states. It
(23:09):
would be like us going to California and trying to
get the illegals out, only it was Chopo Guzman and
as governor of California and his henchmen running the other
city organizations. And I know, I know, we watched Clear
and Present Danger and we saw that they just did
(23:30):
this with a couple Special Forces guys in a big bomb.
Speaker 1 (23:36):
If the plan is.
Speaker 2 (23:38):
To take out the cartels, we have to get our
minds right for what this is going to look like.
And it is not going to be clean. It is
not going to be easy. It is not going to
be quick. And actually, I'll take it this far. I
don't know that the plan is to completely eradicate the Cartels.
(24:00):
I'm not saying that, but if it is, I don't
even know if we.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
Can do it.
Speaker 2 (24:05):
That's how long and perilous and violent this journey will be.
So let's go ahead and go over some of the arguments.
I've seen what Jesse either, we're training them so they
can do it. Did you know that the Mexican government
under Calderon. Did you know that they already waged war
on the cartels. This is about a decade ago, roughly,
(24:28):
they waged war on the cartels.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
They lost. You know that.
Speaker 2 (24:34):
Did you know that the Mexican government, after two hundred
thousand people died, backed off of their war. That's Mexico's
federal government fighting in territory. They knew they're oblonging the
same language, they know the culture. Mexico's own government couldn't
(24:57):
do it. So now you bring that to what we can.
We're not the Mexicans understandable way of thinking.
Speaker 1 (25:04):
I get that. You're right.
Speaker 2 (25:05):
We are much better trained, much better equipped. We have
a much much much better fighting force, to put it
mildly than the Mexicans. How many of them are troops?
Are you willing to see die any Most people will
probably say, well, yeah, it's worth it.
Speaker 1 (25:26):
And I'm not disagreeing.
Speaker 2 (25:27):
By the way, Please keep in mind, I'm not saying
this fight is not worth it.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
That is not what I'm saying.
Speaker 2 (25:33):
I am saying, get yourself ready for what is something
that will not be quick and it will not be easy.
Because the movie Sakario was fiction. The movie clear in
present danger was fiction. Remember what we just went through
in Afghanistan. For twenty years we fought against an ingrained
(25:58):
group that I had some money, but they were ingrained
in the population. And at the end of that twenty
year thing, with all.
Speaker 1 (26:07):
The super specop types.
Speaker 2 (26:09):
There at the end of that twenty year engagement, all
the drones, all the technology, all the bombs, all the
green berets, all everything, twenty years, twenty years of that,
and we left and they won. They're still over there
running things now with our weapons and equipment.
Speaker 1 (26:32):
That's fact.
Speaker 2 (26:34):
With our weapons and equipment. Again, I am not saying
we shouldn't do it. When we have one hundred thousand
Americans a year dying from ventanhyl something must be done.
I'm not saying we shouldn't do something. I am saying
what I'm saying now because I want to get your
(26:55):
head where it needs to be. Because what is coming
has the potential to be Afghanistan, depending.
Speaker 1 (27:03):
On what the goal is.
Speaker 2 (27:04):
What is coming has the potential to be Vietnam. And
you can say on nuts, oh, I might be under
selling things. How many cartel people live work in worship
around you in America. I live here in the Houston area.
I could give you the name of the town, but
I will not, probably look it up online. There is
(27:26):
a suburb, a nice suburb of the Houston area. I'm
talking the White Suburbs, a really nice suburb of the
Houston area. That suburb, it is the headquarters of all
the cartel groups who operate in the Houston area. They
not only live in the same town, they actually live
in the exact same neighborhood, with a tentative agreement with
(27:50):
the police department that there will be no violence here
in our town, on our shores. But they are here
running their operations, their Houston operations from right here in
my area. That's one story. How many places, How much money.
Speaker 1 (28:05):
Do they have? How many drones?
Speaker 2 (28:06):
We'll use drones? You think they don't have drones. I
have more friends on the border patrol than I can
possibly count. You know how many of them have told
me Jesse, they have better equipment than we do.
Speaker 1 (28:18):
Jesse. They have encrypted comms, Jesse. They have fifty cows, Jesse.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
They have I'm not telling you we can't get it done,
but I am telling you this chatter that I see
will take them out.
Speaker 1 (28:33):
We'll just take out their leaders. There's bomb where they're at.
Speaker 2 (28:37):
It is as naive as we're just gonna go take
out the Taliban.
Speaker 1 (28:41):
We'll be right back. That is not how that looks,
and that is not how that works.
Speaker 2 (28:48):
Get yourself right. I'm gonna move off this now. I
wanna do some emails and some other things. I should
note in the third hour, Chris just reached out for him.
Brandon Darby, our resident cartel expert, Brandon Darby is gonna
us halfway through the third hour to talk some more
about this. I just want us to get our minds right,
not saying back off of it. Let's get our minds.
(29:08):
Where we need to be is your mind where you
need to be. Who do you have your cell phone with?
Do you have AT and T or T Mobile or Verizon?
Those companies take your money and they use it against you.
They take your money and they use it against your culture,
your family, your country. We have got to start being
(29:29):
more purposeful with where we spend our money. And that's
where pure talk comes in. The American mobile company, the
one that hires Americans. They're CEO speaking of Vietnam, fought
in Vietnam two tours. They are so passionate about America
that long before you know, Trump got back in office,
(29:51):
Pure Talk was hiring American citizens. When you get a
hold of someone at pure Talk to switch your service
and it takes you ten minutes, you get a free
phone with a qualifying plan, and you'll speak to an
American who speaks English. Support American companies, Support American jobs.
Dial pound two five zero and say Jesse Kelly Pound
(30:13):
two five zero, Say Jesse Kelly.
Speaker 3 (30:16):
We'll be back the Jesse Kelly Show on air and
online at Jesse kellyshow dot com.
Speaker 2 (30:23):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show. Remember you can email
the show Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com.
Speaker 1 (30:30):
Let's get away from the serious stuff for a few here.
Speaker 2 (30:33):
We'll come back and have a discussion about where Democrats
are right now. James Carvel had some hard.
Speaker 1 (30:39):
Words for them. Well, we'll link that up.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
With the Social Security fraud. I mean, there's not another
way to put it. Corruption going on, all that and
so much more to come.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
I'm gonna do this.
Speaker 2 (30:49):
I got a couple of these emails about last night, Jesse,
thanks for a medal of honor Monday. As soon as
I heard Evan's name, I was hoping I wasn't gonna
get choked up since I was at work listening to
the podcast. I can't believe you didn't get choked up.
I think most of the crew members of the Johnston
and the Samuel B. Robertson probably a bunch more worthy
(31:10):
of medals for that day another one of these Jesse.
I just heard the remarkable story of the USS Johnston
on Medal of Honor Monday. What the captain did was
essentially the naval ship version of throwing himself on a
grenade to save his buddies. Their heroism is unfathomable to
a knucklehead like me. May Hee and his whole crew
rest in peace.
Speaker 1 (31:29):
Keep up the good work, brother. Look, if you missed.
Speaker 2 (31:32):
Last night's Medal of Honor Monday, I did a couple
segments because I did a bunch of history around it.
It's worth your time. As always, it's the start of
hour two on Monday's show. So if you're interested in
that little Medal of Honor segment, little history, iHeart Spotify iTunes.
You can go download that. But you ask how I
(31:54):
didn't get choked up, I'll tell you something.
Speaker 1 (31:57):
I have.
Speaker 2 (31:59):
I would say ten probably less than ten ten or
less doing Medal of Honor Monday. When I fire up taps,
sometimes I need every second of taps to pull myself
back together because the story moves me too, and last
night was one of those times. It always has been
(32:21):
that way for me with that story of not only
Commander Evans, but just the USS Johnston, because what that
last guy just said about it was the naval version
of throwing yourself on a grenade.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
That's what it was.
Speaker 2 (32:36):
You charge that Japanese armada in a lightly armored destroyer,
you know you're.
Speaker 1 (32:45):
Going to die.
Speaker 2 (32:46):
It's not a matter of if you are heading at them,
you will die. You are hoping you are going to
get as many licks in as you can, but your ship,
at least if not every man, but your ship is
going going to the bottom.
Speaker 1 (33:01):
It is you will not survive.
Speaker 2 (33:02):
There are no The thing about naval warfare, which I've
always found fascinating is.
Speaker 1 (33:09):
There aren't many upsets.
Speaker 2 (33:11):
It's one of the thing about one of the things
about naval warfare, there just aren't very many upsets. When
you have a power that is superior in guns and armor,
in ships, superior to the other power, you're going to
die and there's precious little you can ever do about that.
(33:34):
And that was what we saw in that story. Is
that brave that brave crew. I mean it's I find
that type of combat to be so terrifying. Anyway, combat
itself is frightening. You know, getting shot at was no fun.
I fully admit that I did not enjoy the experience
at all. But just sitting there lobbing car size shells
(33:58):
at each other on the navel ship and knowing, you
know what, would really freak me out. I don't even
know where I'd be most scared. I probably just wet
myself and lay down and just cry. What if you
were inside the ship, Remember most of the people are
not on the surface. You don't generally want to spend
a ton of time up there unless you need to
(34:20):
be up there with other duties. Think about how many
people are in the bows of the ship listening to
car size shells not only hit your ship, you'll hear
it if you're down below, land right by you. You
can hear it land in the water. And now you
have to sit there and do whatever your duties happen
(34:42):
to be wondering if the next one is coming up
your rear end.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
No thanks. I'd rather be in a ditch any day
of the week. I'd rather see it coming. Jesse.
Speaker 2 (34:54):
I like you, but you're an ignorant beep. When it
comes to NATO. The biggest instigation pos as a NATO
or the British and the French and at closed second.
And since that's the case, the whole organization is rotten
to the core. It's nothing but a tool used to
push the liberal agenda down the rest of the world's throat.
So you can get over your rhino instinct that's telling
(35:16):
you to save it. Elon Musk said it's a useless
war reddick relic, and he's exactly right. You know, sometimes
I actually forget that no matter what setting you're in,
you could be maybe you're a school teacher, maybe you
are in charge of a company with one hundred people
(35:36):
in it, given a speech to a room of fifty people,
or hosting a radio show. There will be a certain
percentage of people you talk to who are just dumb,
really really dumb. And what's wild is the dumb ones
(35:57):
are usually the nastiest one. It's crazy how often that
works out. When I talked about NATO last night, I
couldn't have been more specific. I said we should kick
Germany out of NATO, and I even said during that talk,
I'd rather we just left NATO, but I want Germany
to be publicly punished, like I explained everything. In fact,
(36:17):
I blasted NATO. But you have guys like this. Of course,
he's the one who had to call me an ignorant
F word. He has the IQ of a turtle. One
not even a big sea turtle. One of the small
ones in the side of a pond heard what he
wanted to hear and actually typed up an entire email
calling me a rhino buddy.
Speaker 1 (36:40):
Buddy, Listen, I'm not trying to be mean.
Speaker 2 (36:45):
You are too dumb for this show. There are listen,
there are tons of That's the beauty of this world we.
Speaker 1 (36:52):
Live in now. When it comes to TV and radio and.
Speaker 2 (36:54):
Podcasts, Man, it's nothing but options for you, nothing but
options for you. You need to find some moron who will
just basically read a Trump press release every day on
the radio. It'll be simple, easy for you to follow along.
There will be no thinking involved whatsoever.
Speaker 1 (37:16):
It's like a think of it like special needs radio.
That's what you are.
Speaker 2 (37:22):
Special needs so you don't need to be in any
of the advanced classes. That's only cheating you. I'm worried
about you. You're cheating yourself. You need to be in
the special needs radio classes. Okay, now, maybe it would
help to go download last night's show just read anything
I said. But that's me trying to be nice. I'm
trying to help you out. Okay, special needs, get yourself
(37:44):
some help. Let's talk about
Speaker 1 (37:46):
The Democrat Party in disarray next
