Speaker 1 (00:11):
This is a Jesse Kelly Show. It is the Jesse
Kelly Show. Let's have some fun on a Monday. We're
a Tuesday. Sorry, a Tuesday. It is a Tuesday. That's
what we have on tap board tonight. We're gonna talk

(00:31):
about how norms have changed. Don't you hate that term norms.
We're gonna talk about a gigantic example of how badly
they've changed with the strategic oil Reserve and stuff. We'll
get to that in a minute. We're gonna talk about
government mentality. We're gonna talk about swim power, how it moves,

(00:55):
how it adjusts, what's happening right now in the country, Democrats,
how much they love abortion. Jamie Diamond is talking about inflation.
Apparently the FBI had a plan to use deadly force
when they rated mar A Lago. All that emails. In fact,
I'm getting involved in a primary in the state of Texas.
We're gonna have someone on about thirty minutes from now.

(01:17):
I know what do I care about that? As Texas?
I don't care. Everyone's getting involved. All that more coming
up tonight on the World Famous Jesse Kelly Shall. I
want to begin here though, and it is it is
an interesting thing, crazy thing, weird thing, how much human

(01:40):
beings will adjust to the conditions they are put in.
I have always found it fascinating. It's obvious when you
take a step back and look at it. Why God
made us that way? Do you ever? Have you ever?
I do this? I know it's really stupid, but if
I'm watching let's say I'm doing what I always do
and watch a documentary of some kind about this society.

(02:03):
Shut up, Chris, about this society of this battle or
this war, or and you don't wake about World War One?
Because I love World War One. We talked about it
a lot. The trenches of World War One, stay with
me in nineteen fifteen on the Western Front. You can
make an argument. You can make an argument for anything

(02:25):
when it comes to warfare, but being a soldier one
of the ground troops in nineteen fifteen and World War
One may have been the most prolonged, miserable existence any
soldier has ever gone through. Now, obviously you could get
send me your emails. That's fine. It's actually a fun argument.

(02:45):
That's a subjective. Who knows that. But you can make
an argument. So picture this, picture this. You live your
life for the most part in a trench. It's not lovely.
It's full of mud, it's full of water. Therefore, your
feet are constantly rotting out from under you and aching.
You have trench foot. When you stick your head above

(03:07):
the trench, if one of your friends do, you will
get shot in the face. You have buried several of
your friends who you were able to bury, and you
had to bury them in the trench because if you
leave the trench you will die. In fact, when you're
shoring up the trench, putting dirt and sandbags in front
of the trench, you will find yourself as you're digging,

(03:28):
you're putting pieces of your friend that come up in
the dirt into the sandbag and using your friend's foot
for cover. You wake up. You wake up in the
middle of the night sometimes and there are rats crawling
all over you. And maybe you thought this was as
bad if it gets as it gets, but it's actually

(03:48):
so much worse because you can't just stay in that trench.
Occasionally you will be ordered to go over the top,
as they called it, and you will have to come
out of the trench. And because your commanders don't know
what they're doing, all this new technology you're sitting there
with your rotted feet and your dead friends, and you
know when that whistle blows, that's how they would normally

(04:10):
signal it's time for you to go, that you are
about to die. Everyone in your unit will die because
there's a machine gun nest pointed directly at where you're
coming over the top. You just hope you can send
enough men that he'll run out of bullets and time
for you to get to him and take their trench.
And this is your entire life, and that, honestly, may
not even be the worst of it. Maybe you'll be

(04:31):
out in the open one day. Maybe it'll be nighttime
and you'll have to go use the bathroom because your
guts are a mess from your existence. Maybe you will
end your days falling into an artillery hole that's now
full of water, and well, other people had to answer

(04:52):
nature's call in that same hole, and your gear will
pull you down to the bottom of it and you
will drown in the middle of the night alone like that.
That is not some crazy side story. That's World War
One on the Western Front, a list of horrors like
you can't imagine. So what I do when I'm watching
something like that I guess it's a human thing that

(05:13):
I do. This will come back to politics, stay with me.
But when I'm watching stuff like that, what I try
to do is I try to put myself there. And
it's not as if I'm completely unexperienced when it comes
to military training or even combat or something like that.
I'm certainly no warrior or no marines marine or anything
like that. Just a four year average grunt marine. That's

(05:35):
all that was. But I will tell you, I look
and I say to myself, I don't think I could
do it. I don't think I could do it. I
feel like my mind would break. And many men's minds
did break. By the way, I feel like my mind
would break. I just I don't know how you could
do it. But here's the truth. How did all those

(05:55):
men do it? So many men did it and held
it together at least someone. How did they do it?
The human mind? God made us to adjust. We adjust
to our circumstances. Whenever you're looking out at this person
and what they're going through, or this group of people,
and you say to yourself, I could never. I could never.

(06:18):
Oh my gosh, it would be the worst. I could never.
I could never. You know, somebody locked in captivity, someone
got kidnapped, and they're tied up in a basement for
two years. You've heard these stories and eventually they escape,
and you say to yourself, how did they do it? Mentally,
how did you make it? You do not just break
what happened. Human beings adjust now, like most of human nature.

(06:44):
It can be a very very good thing, a life
saving thing. If your if your mind didn't adjust, you'd
never make it. You would break. But it can also
be a very very bad thing because what happens is
over time you will come to accept the unacceptable. You
will be conditioned. I will be conditioned over a long

(07:07):
enough period of time to accept things we should never ever, ever,
ever accept. There was a headline today, I would bet
money you probably didn't even hear about it, and I
would almost guarantee that no other show would lead with
this story the way I'm about to. And that's nothing

(07:27):
I'm better or anything like that. I just I saw
it and my jaw dropped. You know what the Strategic
Petroleum Reserve is? You know what it is? Obviously it
goes without saying. It's pretty self explanatory. But we keep
in various places around the country. It's not one spot.
It's not one big reservoir of oil. We keep in

(07:48):
various places across America big oil reserves. Why well, the
world runs on oil. It's not America the world. The
world runs on oil, oil and gas. It does. It
powers everything. It's used to manufacture everything. It's everything. If
you don't have it, you have to go get it,

(08:09):
and if you can't get it, you basically have to
fight a war to get it. The Japan did it.
That was really the whole what prompted It's the main
thing that prompted the attack on Pear Harbor. Japan didn't
have oil. We were giving it to him. We said, okay,
no more oil for you, and they said, okay, screw it,
We're attacking. That's how important oil is. It's everything. We

(08:32):
need it. We don't refine near as much of it
as we used to in this country because we've allowed
the climate change nutjobs to destroy the manufacturing sector of
this nation. Republicans and Democrats have allowed this to happen
to the country, So we really really need it now.
This is everything. It doesn't feel like everything because you've

(08:54):
never needed it. I've never needed it. It doesn't feel
like everything. WAW three kicks off with China and Russia tomorrow,
that will become maybe the most important thing on the planet.
While America tries to figure out where we're going to
get our oil, who's going to refine it for us?

(09:15):
How do we get it here once it's refined, People
don't even think about that. Well, they're refining it over there. Okay,
then you've got to ship it across an ocean. If
you're in the middle of World War iiie, what do
you think China and Russia are going to be attacking
our supply lines? It would take virtually the entire US
Navy to protect our fuel lines, our cargo lines to

(09:37):
get the fuel into the country, and the navy we
need to do that runs on fall, runs on oil.
It's everything. Our strategic petroleum reserve is everything. If something
bad happens. Credit to him. Donald Trump waited until prices
were low after he got them low, and then filled

(09:58):
it up. It was brilliant, moved, honestly brilliant. One of
the best things he did in his presidency. Gets no
credit for it because no one needed it. It was empty.
Trump waited until prices were down filled it up, got
a great deal, America won, and then then twenty twenty
two was coming and things look like it were gonna
go They were gonna go bad for Joe Biden. And

(10:19):
we'll talk about that in just a moment before we
talk about that. Things are gonna go bad for your
dog if you don't start giving him real nutrition. Dogs
are living things just like you and me, flesh and blood.
That means they need vitamins and minerals. They need probiotics,
they need omega oils, they need digestive enzymes, antioxidants, just

(10:41):
like you do. You prioritize nutrition for you, right, So
why don't we give ourselves nutrition and then give our
dogs dog food? There's no nutrition in dog food. Pour
rough greens on your dog's food. What is it? Well,
it's green because it's alive. It's all natural nutrition supplement
that gives your dog everything your dog needs. You'll see

(11:03):
a difference in your dog's coat. Did you know that
physical differences in your dog? Physical ailments will clear up,
just like what happens to you when you get REO nutrition.
You want a free jumpstart trialback? How's that sound? Call
eight three three three three my dog or go to
Roughgreens dot com. Slash Jesse will continue this oil reserve

(11:28):
talk next, Truth Attitude Jesse Kelly. It is the Jesse
Kelly Show on a Tuesday, like ten minutes away from
getting involved in primaries like I have told you about,
like we have promised we would. Obviously, we're also going
to get to the bad.

Speaker 2 (11:49):
After I shine the pack pack At Act into law.

Speaker 1 (11:55):
But first we're talking about something that the Biden administration
did today. Were First of all, we're we're discussing how
the human mind, the human condition is that we end
up accepting the unacceptable because things have been terrible for
long enough. So we're doing a little rewind first. Leading
up to the mid terms, Biden's approval rating was in
the toilet because Biden sucks and he's an idiot. And

(12:17):
one of the main reasons his approval rating was so
low is gas prices. I've told you this before under
the Roosevelt administration. This goes back presidential administrations have all known,
Democrat and Republican. You can track your approval rating because
it goes right along with gas prices. Barack Obama, that's

(12:38):
I think that's almost verbatim his quote. I could track
my approval rating to gas prices. Gas prices are everything
to the American people, the norms and normas out there.
They don't know anything, but they know what it costs
to fill up their car. The Biden administration was in
trouble heading into the midterms, and so the Biden administration

(13:00):
drained our strategic petroleum reserve to get a temporary dropping
gas prices so they could win more seats in the House.
I'll just go ahead and fast forward and spoil the
ending for you here headline from the AP Biden releasing
one million barrels of gasoline from the Northeast Reserve in

(13:24):
a bid to lower prices at the pump. That's from today.
So they just did it again. His approval ratings bad,
his poll numbers look bad. Now, let's pause for a
moment and think about how far we've fallen. Let's say
you have a normal country, the Republic of Jesse. We've

(13:45):
broken off and we've started a normal country with normal values.
We value things like family, small government, community, border security,
things like that. A normal country, the kind of country
you want, the kind of country I want. And in
the Republic of Jesse we end up with a really

(14:06):
really bad guy as president. We'll call him Chris. So
President Chris, he takes our strategic fuel supply that we
need in case we get attacked and we have enemies everywhere.
They're circling all around us, and we'll need that fuel
if they attack us. And because Chris wants to win
an election, Chris goes and he drains all the oil

(14:30):
out of it so he can win an election. In
a normal country, what do you think should happen to
the head of state if he did something like that.
It's not a minor political thing. That's high treason. That's
a felony. I would argue in you don't have to

(14:51):
be some draconian society if you even have a remotely
sane country. If the head of state it drains the
emergency oil reserves to help his pull numbers, not only
should he be impeached and removed from office, Joe Biden
should spend the rest of his life in prison. That's

(15:13):
a six month prison sentence. That would be the normal
reaction in a normal country. In the United States of America.
I don't really think this has even been in the
news today. It was a little side headline that I
happened to find when I was browsing through various news

(15:36):
sites figuring out what's out there. The President of the
United States of America cannot lower the Strategic Petroleum Reserve
to lower gas prices. That's not why the Strategic Petroleum
Reserve is there to help your approval rating. And this
is the second time he's done. It shows you where

(16:00):
we are. Honestly, it's not even about Biden and how
evil and selfish and awful these people are. It's really
not even about him. That's a given by now. It's
more about us. It's more about the natural reaction to
these things, where we've been so conditioned to the fact
that our leaders, Republican and Democrat, are the most evil, futred,

(16:20):
selfish people who lead any country on the planet, that
we will wake up and see a headline that the
president has left this country with nothing in case we
are attacked, and we all just go, yeah, I can
see that that sounds like him. Today. There should be
a GOP press conference. Every Republican in the House, every

(16:44):
Republican in the Senate. It's led by Donald Trump himself,
and every Republican governor in the country. They've all gathered
in DC to announce immediate investigations into the Biden administration.
The House is announced impeachment. They are going all in.
Why because the President of the United States of America
doesn't get to destroy the country for his poll numbers. Instead,

(17:09):
We've been so abused for so long. What is it?
Another slap, another kick in the teeth, just another abuse
from Washington. And I've gotten so used to it, You've
gotten so used to it. We don't even really bad
any anymore. It's just how it goes. Now. We are

(17:35):
doomed because of an apathetic public that won't get involved
in politics. We are doomed to be led by the dumbest,
most evil people in the United States of America. And
I'm so frustrated for you. I'm frustrated for me. I'm
so frustrated watching these people do this to our country.

(17:58):
And I'm more than anything frustrated with the lack of outrage.
People get mad at me because sometimes I get mad.
I get mad because you're not. If you're not mad,
you're half dead or half asleep. Right now, this is ridiculous,
All right, Let's move on, Let's get involved in something locally.

(18:19):
Let's try to change the GOP. Before we do that,
let's try to stop grime. No, I'm not talking about nationwide.
I'm not talking about cleaning up the streets of New York.
I'm just talking about you, you personally stopping a criminal
from hurting you. It's everywhere now. A mugging, a stabbing,

(18:41):
a shooting. It's everywhere now. Everywhere you turn, somebody's being hurt,
someone's having something taken from them. Burn Up pistol launchers
are non lethal, and they're legal in all fifty states.
No permit needed, no background check needed. They'll mail it
to your front door. Carry something on you that will

(19:03):
allow you to protect yourself. These things shoot pepperballs or
tear gas balls. Their ratings to refuse are off the charts.
SWAT teams are gobbling them up as fast as possible.
Get on the burn a bandwagon, b Yrna, burna dot
com slash Jesse gets you ten percent off. Get one

(19:25):
for you and the person you love the most. All right,
we'll be back with the primary challenger. Next The Jesse
Kelly Show I Like It returns next. It is The
Jesse Kelly Show on a Tuesday. Reminding you you can
email the show. If you want love heye death threats,
ask Doctor Jesse questions for Friday. Email those into Jesse

(19:47):
at jesse kellyshow dot com. Well, as we've said many many, many,
many many times on the show, you're probably sick of
me saying it. The primary you sit out is infinitely
more important than the general election you vote in. But
we have a fraction of the participation in primaries that
we do in the general. We don't vote in primaries,

(20:09):
or we go vote for the same loser who's in,
and then we wake up every other day of the
year and complain about the GOP. Well, how do you
think you change it? Complaining magic? Kick him out of office?
Here in Texas are GOP is pathetic, It's awful. It's
a disgrace people who live in blue areas like New York.

(20:29):
I mean, they're suffering, complete suffering. In Texas, we could
have whatever we wanted, and instead we have a bunch
of losers here, and so let's bounce some of those
losers joining me. Now, a man running to primary the
big cheese in the Texas State House. David Covey is
his name. He's running. It doesn't matter in Texas House
District twenty one is his district, but the district is

(20:52):
not as I mean. The district matters, don't get me wrong,
but that's not as important as the courage it takes
to challenge the big red machine and a state like Texas. David,
why are you doing this? What's wrong with you?

Speaker 3 (21:06):
Good to be with you? You know, enough is enough.
We elect Republicans and expect them to govern like conservatives,
and then they go establish in the back and they
give power to liberal Democrats. It makes no sense. And
so you know, for me it was enough is enough.
I have to do my part, which is to run
against the guy who happens to be the Speaker of

(21:28):
the House here in my home district.

Speaker 1 (21:31):
Tell us, first of all, before we get to that loser,
tell us about you. Who you are, what prompted this,
what's your story?

Speaker 3 (21:38):
Yeah, I'm just a local Republican activist and I got
involved as a precinct chair, which is the very bottom
volunteer position in the party. Became a county chair, and
then I worked on the executive committee of the state
Republican Party in Texas. And the more I learned, the
more I was disappointed in our Republican elect officials because

(22:01):
as delegates and Republicans, we work really hard on our platform,
you know, those principles that we believe, limited government, pro life,
Second Amendment, and then we elect people thinking they're going
to uphold these values. And the more I saw, the
more I was disappointed that they weren't. And you know,

(22:22):
I have a normal job. I work in the oil
and gas industry in Southeast Texas. I you know, have volunteered,
but ultimately, what I came down to was all of
us have to do a little more than we're doing
if we're going to save our state, in our country.

Speaker 1 (22:39):
Gosh, I freaking love that a little more than we're doing.
Normal guy works in oil and gas and decided to
get involved. Now, I don't want to act to everybody
out there listening like it's all sunshine and roses. When
you start trying to take away someone's power, whether it's
some dirty commie on the school board or some low
tgpor like Dade Fhlan in Texas, there's going to be

(23:03):
pushed back and they're not going to hand that power over.
How's it been for you since you announced? What have
they done?

Speaker 3 (23:10):
Man? They have come after me in every way. And
I used to think that that the liberals they twist
the truth. No, they just make it up. Uh, they'll
make it up. They lie without ceasing. And and you
know they come after your job, your family, your religion,
everything because they are so desperate. Their identity is their power,

(23:35):
and so they're really not in it for principle. Integrity
doesn't mean anything. They just want to hold onto that power.

Speaker 1 (23:44):
Why are you challenging this specific person? Give people a
good ideacause people don't know Texas state politics. I go,
what did what did he do? Why are you even challenging
him at all?

Speaker 3 (23:54):
You know, every everyone has their their district, and some
people have better representation than others. My district happened to
have a guy named Dave Felon who is elected as
a state representative in our district. And then at the
at the House of Representatives, the body there elected him

(24:16):
Speaker of the House. So he becomes a speaker with
all the Democrats voting for him and eleven Republicans and
then and then he you know, he is a Republican
by the way he claims to be. His actions wouldn't
indicate he is, but he's elected by the Democrats, and
as part of the payoff, he appoints them over important committees.

(24:39):
So they moved their legislation, and he actually got more
Democrat legislation passed than than Republican legislation. And and so
this guy is elected as a Republican but stabs us
in the back like this, and and he and he
has committed if re elected, he will do it again.
And so I said, look, the big bad guy here

(25:01):
in the House of the Texas House is my guy.
So I'm partly responsible. Our district is responsible for what
we're doing, because down here we believe that as Texas goes,
so goes the nation. And so we have to keep
Texas red and be a solid conservative, free independent state.

(25:23):
And when you have a guy selling us out, he's
ultimately going to be part of flipping the state blue.
And so we said enough enough, I've got to jump
in this. And it could have been anyone, but he's
never been challenged since he first won the office almost
ten years ago, and so we jumped in. We couldn't

(25:43):
find anyone else, and here we go.

Speaker 1 (25:46):
You know what I love the most about that is
the personal ownership of it. I've been trying to be
better about that a lot more myself, David of this
is my fault. You know, we have a crappy senator
in this state, John Cornet. It's my fault. I'm a
resident here. I need to do more. I need to
do more. I love that people are owning that. Now,
tell people you decided to run for office. You're challenging

(26:07):
this big shot in the state of Texas. There are
people listening coast to coast right now. How hard has
it been to run for office? I know it's been difficult,
But do you wish you had a degree from Harvard?
Do you wish you'd had some special education? Or as
you've gotten into this, have you found that you belong
here just like everyone else.

Speaker 3 (26:28):
That was probably the most insightful thing I learned was
that these guys that I thought, you know, ran everything
and were so special, they put their pants on one
leg at the time. And ultimately all it takes is
a willing spirit, a brave spirit, a spirit that loves

(26:49):
this country and will do the right thing no matter
the cost. And they will discourage you. They will tell
you you're not good enough, you don't have the right education,
and you know you don't have the right contact pedigree.
You know, you have to look a certain way. They'll
they'll try to make you fit into this mold. And

(27:10):
basically they're the only ones that fit into the mold
they have created. But ultimately, what makes a change is
stepping out, and it takes so few people to make
a big change. I think that's the most important lesson
I've learned is is one person can really make a difference.
And so you know, whoever's out there listening and then

(27:33):
they're thinking about, oh, it's too big, we can't make
a difference. You know, I've stepped out and my family
has supported me and friends and community, but oftentimes we
need they need someone to step out and lead, and
then people people get behind you. They're looking for that
brave spirit that's ready to say enough enough, let's stand

(27:53):
for truth, Let's do what's right.

Speaker 1 (27:56):
Amen. Now, all it takes is one brave soul stepping out. David.
I give you all the credit in the world. I
have so much admiration for you and what you're doing
and the guts it takes. I know it will inspire
other people. If people want to support you, and I
want them to. I'm rooting so hard for you. What
do they do? Can they do that? Can anyone do that?

Speaker 3 (28:16):
Yes? Yeah, anyone can support us. You can, you can
support us, can send us a couple of dollars at
Coveyfotexas dot com. Go look at my platform. You can
see it's a limited government conservative platform and anyone can
can can run on this and I think be successful
because America still is a country that's conservative by and large.

(28:39):
Coveyfotexas dot com. We would welcome any support.

Speaker 1 (28:42):
Coveyfo Texas dot com. I will be going there, David.
Credit to you, sir, your credit to your family, your country,
and your community. Well done, well done. Just the normal guy,
you know what. He's got guts, that's what it takes.
That's all it takes. I don't like speaking, but Jesse,

(29:03):
I don't like speaking in front of people. You'll get
used to it, believe me, you will. And you're not
going to start out in front of some crowd of
one hundred thousand people pooping your pants on stage. You'll
start small, ten, twenty people. You'll learn, you'll get better
at it. No, they're not special. The people are in
there now. You might find when you get involved, you're
actually better than them, smarter than them, more equipped for it. You.

(29:29):
Maybe it's you. Hey, pray about it all right, right,
Maybe call or text a friend someone you love the most.
Make sure, look, this is important. Make sure you call
on your pure Talk phone to make sure it goes through.

Speaker 3 (29:46):
You.

Speaker 1 (29:46):
See, when you switch to pure Talk, you're onto this
gigantic five G network. When I switched from T Mobile
to Pure Talk, my cell phone service got better. We
used to drop calls in the one room in our
house every single time. No more. Pure Talk shares your
values as well. They don't take your money and throw

(30:08):
it at Planned parenthood and black lives matter. Pure Talk.
As you heard last night, they're trying to bring veterans
back into the world, trying to prevent veterans suicide. They're
on an all out mission to help these men, help them.
All you have to do is switch dial pound two

(30:32):

We'll be back. Jesse Kelly. It is the Jesse Kelly
Show on a Tuesday. Don't forget if you miss any
part of the show, you can download the whole thing

(30:53):
on iHeart, Spotify iTunes. I am gonna get to some
emotes before I get into this foul cheat talk and
illegals talk and inflation talk and all kinds of stuff
that there's a ton I have to get to. But
I should probably address a few things from Joe Biden's
speech today. Look, I mean it's a lot more.

Speaker 2 (31:16):
I shigned the Pack and Pack Act into law.

Speaker 1 (31:21):
Forgetting about that, forgetting about that?

Speaker 2 (31:25):
All right?

Speaker 1 (31:26):
I heard this, and I guess, I guess I have questions.

Speaker 2 (31:31):
By the way, I said, every young man, thinking you
getting married marrying a family of five or more daughters?
I did. My wife sold us the five sisters, you
know why one of them has always loved you?

Speaker 1 (31:43):
Not what what if? Chris? I heard that? I heard
that right? Right? Could you do me a favorite? Is
there a way to turn the volume up to make
sure everyone can hear this? Can what it is?

Speaker 2 (32:00):
And by the way, I said, every young man, thinking
you getting married marrying a family of five or more daughters,
I did, my wife shold us of five sisters, you
know why one of them has always loved you?

Speaker 1 (32:12):
Not marry into a family of five or more daughters,
because one of them will always love you. Hmm, you
know what we're gonna Let's let's move on, he said,
some other stuff.

Speaker 2 (32:27):
Working around the clock to free their main hostages. Just
as we are freed. Hostage is already and here with
this today is Hersh Goldberg, Poland, and is still he
is not here with us, but he's still being held
by him off.

Speaker 1 (32:43):
And hear this today is hirshh. He's not here though,
he's still in some dungeon and in Gaza somewhere. Sorry, Hirsh,
My bad. And then of course he did, he dropped
this line. He had to do the pro veteran thing.
And you remember, you know why, you know why they

(33:03):
do this. It's not because they give a crap about
the country or veterans or anything like that. They care
so little about veterans that they not only left our
marines an army high and dry over there in Afghanistan
after getting thirteen of them killed, he was so angry

(33:25):
about having to show up at their service when they
when their bodies were returned back to the country that
he checked his watch the entire time. Democrats believe the
military's political against them. They believe the flag is political
against them. But they understand. You have to keep the
stupid sixty seventy year old Democrat voting Democrat because he

(33:45):
still thinks it's JFK's party. So you gotta say things like.

Speaker 2 (33:48):
America, we leave no veteran behind.

Speaker 1 (33:51):
That's the motto, we leave no veteran behind. When's the
last time you talked to a veteran, A Gwatt veteran,
Global War on Terror? Sorry, when's the last time you
talked to a g Watt veteran? I think they feel
left behind. Shoot. I left the VA when I was poor.
When I got back from Iraq, I was having all

(34:13):
kinds of these stomach problems. You couldn't figure out what
was going on. My stomach was just bothering me all
the time, all the time, all the time, and trying
to get care at the VA was just a nightmare.
It was a freaking nightmare. And this is back before
the VA went crazy during COVID and all that. You
couldn't get. You just couldn't get anything. And finally, by

(34:34):
the grace of God, I got a job that had
good health insurance benefits. I walk back in the VA
since I got free healthcare sitting at me, and they
got a huge VA here in Houston. I have free
healthcare sitting for me right there. I won't go. I'd
rather stay home. Just kill me. But yeah, no, they're
they're definitely interested in taking care of the veterans and
Karen for those we said in it, a harms wifer has.

Speaker 2 (34:55):
A lot of obligations, only one truly sacred obligation. Sacred
obligation and as to prepare those we send in the
Harms way, and to care for them and their families
when they come home, and if they don't come home,
care for their families.

Speaker 1 (35:08):
They didn't come home, and when confronted with their families,
Joe Biden checked his watch because he had somewhere better
the beat. All right, before we get into some illegal
immigration talk, I want to do a couple of emails, Oracle.
Even in good times, restaurant profit is very low. I
was raised in my uncle's steakhouse. The way things are going,
with skyrocketing food prices and good help is almost impossible

(35:32):
to find. I fear that restaurants will one day be
no more. Well there are there. I've talked to a
couple of restaurant managers I know about this very very thing.
I've been talking to them recently, and no, they didn't
say they think restaurants are going to go away. I
don't think that'll ever happen. I mean, this is something historic. Historically.

(35:53):
You can look back and there was always a little
shop that would cook up food and you could go
in and pay for it and get them made for you.
That's now, It's been done for the longest, long as
long as time. So it's nothing they're going to go away,
but they are. The industry itself was already changing because
of food delivery services door Dash and Uber Eats and

(36:16):
all that stuff. Because of that, restaurant managers will tell
you the bulk of the business they do is delivered.
It's to go orders. It's not a side item anymore.
It used to be a side thing. Who orders food
to go? Half the fun is going out here. You
go out, you have fun, family, friends, enjoy yourself. Now
people don't do that. They want to grab their food,

(36:36):
they want to go home or have it delivered to
them at home. So it was already going to be
different because of that. Restaurants instead of being places that
They kind of want you to come in and sit down.
They know you're not going to, so why sink a
fortune into it. Just make a kitchen. You're making a
big kitchen that makes the go orders. That's why McDonald's

(36:56):
restaurants don't look like they used to. They're all just
those ugly squares Now. They wrote an article about it,
more than one article about it. They changed their business model.
They're like, hey, everyone gets it to go. No one
comes in for the McDonald's playland. When we were raising
our kids, we were always in a McDonald's playland. It
was free. You go there for ten bucks. Everyone gets
to eat, and the kids go play in the playland

(37:16):
for free. Those things are going away. They're gone, they're leaving.
So that's part of it. Are food costs going to
change it all though they might look things are going
to change radically. But you know what, Before we get
to that, let's talk about illegal immigration. There's a lot
of that in the news, in fact, mass deportation. Marco

(37:39):
Rubio's out there talking about it today. Let's chat next
