Speaker 2 (00:15):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show, another hour of the
Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful Monday, and we have
a bunch of stuff we're gonna get to this hour.
I am gonna get to some emails. I'm gonna talk
to you about a very particular set of skills. I
have Brandon Darby's coming up about a half hour from now,
(00:35):
but we don't have time for any of that right now,
because you know what time it is. It is time
for Medal of Honor Monday, where we honor one of
our heroes. We remember his name and his deeds. We
tell our children about what he did and give them
something wonderful to aspire to so they don't try to
be the YouTube star they're currently watching on their phones
(00:58):
when they should be listening to The Jesse Kelly Show.
And do remember. You can email you love, your hate,
your death threats to Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com.
You can also email in Medal of Honor recommendations. If
you have ones that are close to you, friend, neighbor,
from your hometown, just ones you like, You're welcome to
(01:22):
email those in This guy did he said, Jesse, I'd
like to recommend Army Medic Specialist five James C. McLoughlin
for Medal of Honor Monday. This hero is from South Haven, Michigan.
Was awarded the Medal of Honor in twenty seventeen for
actions that took place over three days in May of
(01:44):
nineteen sixty nine. Although he was wounded the first and
second days of a three day battle, he kept fighting,
saved the lives of ten men, took out an RPG location.
After his tour of duty and Vietnam, he spent forty
years as a teacher. How about that? So, without further ado,
let's find out what mister James C. McLoughlin of South Haven,
(02:08):
Michigan did in Vietnam.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Hey honoring those who went above and beyond its Medal
of Honor Monday.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Private first Class James C. McLoughlin distinguished himself by acts
of gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life,
above and beyond the call of duty from May thirteenth
to fifteenth, nineteen sixty nine, while serving as a combat
medic with Company C, third Battalion, twenty first Infantry, one
(02:44):
hundred and ninety six Light Infantry Brigade, Americal Division, the
company air assaulted into an area near camp near tam
Kai in Noi Yon Hill on May thirteenth. With complete
disregard for his life, he ran one hundred meters in
an open field through heavy fire to rescue a comrade
(03:05):
too injured to move and carried him to safety. That
same day, second patoon was ordered to search the area
near Neu Yan Hill when the platoon command commander was
ambushed by a large North Vietnamese Army force and sustained
heavy casualties with complete disregard for his life and personal safety.
(03:26):
Private first Class mcloffin led two Americans into the safety
of a trench while being wounded by shrapnel from a
rocket propelled grenade. He ignored a direct order to stay
back and braved an enemy assault while moving into the
kill zone on four more occasions to extract wounded comrades.
(03:47):
He treated the injured, prepared the evacuation, and, though bleeding
heavily from shrapnel wounds on his head and body, refused
evacuation to safety in order to remain at the battle
site with his fellows soldiers who were heavily outnumbered by
North Vietnamese Army forces. On May fourteenth, the platoon was
(04:07):
again ordered to move out towards Noiyan Hill. Private first
class mcloffin was wounded a second time by small arms
fire and shrapnel from a rocket propelled grenade while rendering
aid to two soldiers in an open rice patty. In
the final phases of the attack, two companies from the
second North Vietnamese Army Division and an element of seven
(04:30):
hundred soldiers from a viet Cong regiment descended upon Company
Sea's position on three sides. Private first Class mcloffin, again
with complete disregard for his life, went into the crossfire
numerous times throughout the battle to extract wounded soldiers while
also fighting the enemy. His relentless and courageous actions inspired
(04:53):
and motivated his comrades to fight for their survival. When
supplies ran low, Private at first Class mcloffin volunteered to
hold a blinking strobe light in an open area as
a marker for a nighttime resupply route. Good grief exposing
his body. During the morning darkness of May fifteenth, Private
(05:14):
first Class mcloffin took out or knocked out a rocket
propelled grenade position with a grenade thought and eliminated enemy soldiers,
treated numerous casualties, kept two critically wounded soldiers alive during
the night, and organized the dead and wounded for evacuation
at daylight. His timely and courageous actions were instrumental in
(05:36):
saving the lives of his fellow soldiers. Private first Class
mcloffin's personal heroism, professional competence, and devotion to duty are
in keeping with the highest traditions of military service and
reflect great credit upon himself, the Americal Division and the
United States Army. My man had himself a good few days. Huh,
(06:00):
horrible few days, but that gone. And you know, you
just know when he took out that RPG, you know
that was totally the one who wounded him twice already,
and you know he was just stewing about it. I'm
totally guessing on this, but you know he was just
stewing about it. I'm gonna get that, and I'm toningly
right now, I'm gonna get that freaking guy. You've got
to shrap no wound in your head and your body,
(06:22):
and you're just thinking, I'm gonna kill him before I die.
I swear on my life, I will forty years as
a teacher. It's it's wonderful how often that seems to happen.
And maybe I'm maybe I'm blowing this up too much
in my mind because I know guys who I was
in Iraq with they moved on to be teachers. I've
(06:45):
heard of other guys in my kids' school veterans are
going into the teaching profession. If you are a veteran,
perhaps you're looking for something. You know, there's nobody better
to guide young minds than you. Consider if possible, going
(07:05):
into the teaching profession. Just consider it, That's all I'm saying. Considerate.
Also consider this. Communists lie about everything at all times.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
In my state included, which is one of the most
blessed and cursed states. As it relates to climate, we're
on the tip of the sphere of climate change, simultaneous
droughts and simultaneous floods.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
The hots are getting a lot hotter, the dry is
drier you want.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Them, it's drouting and flooding.
Speaker 5 (07:35):
Of course, the most devastating wildfires in American history in
the middle of winter in Los Angeles.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Yeah, they already caught the artsonists. But remember how the
communist views the concept of truth words themselves. What is
the point of all of it? You know why you
tell the truth? You believe, whatever your belief system, that
that is right. You don't want to lie because it
is wrong. But the communist does not share your value system.
Speaker 6 (08:06):
Think are reverence for the truth might become might have
become a bit of a distraction that is preventing us
from finding consensus and getting important things done.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Did you know over eighty percent of wildfires some say
the number is north of ninety are caused by man.
And I don't mean your suv. I'm talking arsonists setting
them intentionally. I'm talking about people flicking cigarette butts out
the window, maybe starting a campfire when it's dry and
the mountains without any idea what you're getting into. But
(08:38):
all those wildfires, Man's lighting them all. But it gives
communists the opportunity to destroy more of your economy, steal
more of your liberty, and loot the treasury in the
interest of handing it out to their large donors in
the solar industry. So they'll hop on private jets like
(08:59):
Gavin us did and fly all the way down to
Brazil and say things like.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
This, in my state included, which is one of the
most blessed and cursed states as it relates to climate,
we're on the tip of the sphere of climate change,
simultaneous droughts and simultaneous floods.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
The hots are getting a lot hotter, the dry is drier.
Speaker 5 (09:21):
You saw one of the most devastating wildfires in American
history in the middle of winter in Los Angeles in January.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
One hundred mile hour winds attached to fire.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
The fire hydrants ran out of water. They already caught
the guy who lit the fire. California won't clear out
the dead underbrush one hundred percent man made. And he
knows that if you sat him down and hooked him
up to a lot of detector he knows everything I
just said. But remember that doesn't matter. This thing of.
Speaker 6 (10:00):
Truth I think are reverence for the truth might become
might have become a bit of a distraction that is
preventing us from finding consensus and getting important things done.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
He's trying to get things done, you see, he doesn't
have time for the facts. All right, we are going
to get to some economic matters. We're going to get
to this reporting about the would be Trump assassin. We
still have to get to Brandon Darby. There's just so
much to get to on the show. But first we
have to make sure we know names, don't we It's
(10:32):
met Ale of honor Monday. I thought it'd be a
good time. Do you know have you ever heard of
the name US Army Warrant Officer one Stuart Wayman? You
ever heard of that name? Well, there was a midair collision.
He was in Army, graduated Army Aviation school. All that
midair collision, he lost his life, left behind a wife
(10:54):
and three sons. You by giving eleven dollars a month
to Tunnel to Towers paid off the mortgage on the
family's home. Doesn't bring Stuart back. Nothing ever can bring
Dad back for Christmas Day? Not saying it does. But
then you want to talk about a way to ease
(11:15):
at least some kind of a burden on the family.
That's what Tunnel to Towers does. And this is their season,
the season of hope. It's time. Eleven bucks a month
is all they ask for. T the number two T
dot org T twot dot org. We'll be back.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
You're listening to the oracle.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
You love this one. It's a scream Baby.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
The Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
It is The Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Monday,
a Medal of Honor Monday. Remember, if you missed any
part of the show, you can download the whole thing
on iHeart, Spotify, iTunes. I shouldn't breeze over this. When
I bring up gigantic communist lies, and when I talk
about communists lying about everything at all times, it does.
(12:01):
It has had a devastating effect on America, specifically America's
mental health. And so I just played you. I'm not
going to play it again. I can't stand his stupid voice.
Gavin Newsom flying down to Brazil and saying California's fire,
the Palisades fire was caused by climate change, which is
did not write lies started by an arson. But setting
that aside, this is what these lies, these constant lies,
(12:26):
the world of lies the communists create for your liberal
and Peggy, this is the results.
Speaker 7 (12:31):
It doesn't take long for me to pick up on
this people.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
This is a psychotherapist on Fox News.
Speaker 7 (12:36):
By the way, it doesn't take long for me to
pick up on this. People are obsessed with Trump, They're fixated,
they're hyper fixated on Trump, and they talk about some
of the features of this disorder. They can't sleep, they
feel traumatized by mister Trump, they feel restless. I had
(12:56):
one patient who said she couldn't enjoy a vacation because
anytime she's Trump and the news are on her device,
she felt triggered. So this is a profound pathology, and
I would even go so far as to call it
the defining pathology of our time.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
How devastating. And if you're one of these people, one
of these democrats in the media, one of these Democrat politicians,
he taught us to inject bleach. He said Nazis were
very fine people. He colluded with Russia. I want you
to know you're a bad person. You are You're a
terrible human being. And the things you do on behalf
(13:34):
of the revolution are really evil things, because you know
what what you're doing is you're abusing disabled people. Those
are Democrat voters. Mentally disabled people like Democrat voters. They're
susceptible to your lives, and so you tell them huge lies,
You wreck their soul, wreck their mental health, and all
for power. It's very evil oracle. I've been very disappointed
(13:58):
with Trump two point zero deep ortation numbers. But think
you made a great point acknowledging the runway needed to
be built up to the mass deportation machine. What is
your concern level regarding deportation numbers wavering next year in
the midterms. I'm worried the administration won't have the stomach
to ramp up the numbers and in create Okay, uh,
(14:19):
thanks for all you do. Yeah, like I said, and
I mean, I don't want to make a presidency, a
four year presidency, into something that's overly simple, because the
president has so many jobs and they're all important. So
I'm not trying to make this overly simple. But for
my overly simple mind, if you ask me, hey, what
(14:40):
would be a metric to measure how successful the Trump
administration is? Trump two point zero, I would say, is
he going to port ten million plus people? I know
that's overly simple, but as I've explained a million times before,
the mass deportation of fifty million people plus is necessary
(15:01):
to save the country. If we do it, we do
save the country. If we can't do it, we have
no country left to save. It has to be done.
So far that Trump administration has been deporting people remember
when you count self, deportations were over two million, and
he's building an immigration machine that will help him deport more.
(15:23):
That's why they're beefing up one hundred and fifty thousand
new ICE agents. That's why your leadership shake ups. Every
indication is that they are one hundred percent committed to
mass deportations and they intend to get it done. That
we've seen nothing, and I would tell you if we
had that shows they're deviating from that. As of right now,
they're building the machine, the deportation machine. So if we're
(15:46):
just going to follow this logically, if that's two million
this year, that's three million next year, right, maybe four
million the following year, maybe whatever, Umber's ten million. You
asked me if I'm going to consider him a successful president,
I'm going to tell you that I need ten million deportations,
(16:08):
and I think there's a chance he's going to do it.
He looks committed to doing it. He does gotta have
credit words do if we're going to insult, you know
they epstein this and mishandled that or insult your gotta
give credit words due. This is the most committed administration
I've ever seen to deportation. They are. Now, your question
is are they going to get squeamish in the mid terms.
(16:33):
I haven't seen any indication they're going to get squeamish,
but we may have a little feather in our cap
that we weren't thinking about. Trump is a lamb duck.
He's never going to be a politician again. He's never
going to be president ever ever again. And I know
there are powerful interests around him who want to stay
(16:56):
in politics of JD. Vance and these types. I understand
there are other people who have aspirations for the future.
I get that, but most of this comes from Trump.
It's himself, not the House, not the Senate, not even JD. Vance.
Most of it comes from Trump himself. I don't think
Donald Trump wants to be wiped out in the midterms,
(17:16):
so he has some motivation there. But I think Donald
Trump understands, or at least the indication is right now
that he understands, we have to have mass deportations to
save the country. They remember, if he gets to ten million,
that's roughly half the number Joe Biden brought in. Because
(17:37):
you can't bail water as fast as it comes in,
we would need another four or eight years to finish
up just what Joe Biden did, and then we got
to work on everyone who came in beforehand. We have
years and years, a decade more. Can he get to
ten in four years? I think he can. If they
start to wos out in the midterms, Hey, no more
of this, only the really violent ones, then we're probably
(17:59):
pretty cooked. Have you, by the way, heard about Chalk's
Black Friday Special? Did you know you've heard me talk
about choclt powder before. Choclt powder is freaking glorious. It's
obviously chocolate flavored, but it's good for you. It's pack
(18:20):
full of vitamins and minerals. You want to start your
day with choclp powder, you'd put it in a glass
of milk or a smoothi oudputs it in the smoothie
every morning. Chalk has a Black Friday special running right
now during the month of November. When you go to
chalk dot com and use the promo code Jesse, you

(18:45):
c ho q dot com get a subscription something Male
Vitality Stack or Female Vitality Sick whatever. Chalk dot Com
promo code Jesse free bag of chocolp powder. Go make
it happen. Now. There was all kinds of video running
around online of a protest in Mexico. Looked a little spicy.
(19:08):
People were talking about Viva Revolution. What Chris, I almost said, perfect,
Let's ask Brandon Darby about that next.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
He doesn't care if you believe him, but he's right,
Jesse Kelly.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Monday. Gosh, Chris,
turn it off. I knew Darby picked it and van
Halen is so overrated. Joining me now, my friend Brandon Darby,
of course with the cartel chronicles bright Bard, Brandon, come on,
van Halen, what are we doing here?
Speaker 8 (19:46):
I know, I know, but he picked it, not me?
Speaker 2 (19:51):
All right? First of all, is there a group of
freedom fighters getting ready to cast off the government of Mexico?
Because I saw your protesters out there. And then a
bunch of bad internet rumors started floating around what's happening
down in Mexico City.
Speaker 8 (20:06):
Well, I started to see that too. I was on
Twitter and x or whatever they call it nowadays, and
I saw that. You know, Alex Jones said that there
was about to be a revolution, and a number of
other folks were tweeting out videos saying there's about to
be a revolution, and it turns out assist an average
run of the mill protest, which is common in Mexico City.
(20:30):
You know, elections are coming up and the parties are
whipping up their bases to protest one thing or another
about the current president. So not not any difference than
what we routinely see in DC. You know, some arrests
were made, people get wild, and there's always revolutionaries in Mexico, right,
(20:52):
But I don't think that's what this is not at
this time.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Okay, So that's actually why I wanted to bring on
one to clarify some of the information that gets tossed
out there. But two, we don't understand Americans, don't. I
know you do the politics of Mexico, of Mexicans, of
the Is there a Republican and Democrat? Is it twenty
different parties? Who are the parties down there?
Speaker 3 (21:16):
Right?
Speaker 5 (21:17):
Right?
Speaker 8 (21:17):
So there's a number of different parties. But what you
have to understand is their right wingers are kind of
akin to our Democrats, and then their left wingers are
kind of akin to Arcasio Cortes, and then they're ultra
left wingers, like they still have resistance movements, you like
the Zapatistas and so their resistance movements are you know,
(21:38):
Marxist and really really really far far left. But the
politics that are really you know, we're saying this is
why they outlaw guns is because no one is really
no one really feels represented unless you're very wealthy there right,
(21:59):
like you have, you have communities along the US Mexico border.
They call it the fronterra right, the borderlands, and they
are just completely underrepresented in their government, Like what their
needs are does not seem to matter. The only time
that their needs are taken care of in the border communities,
their security needs is when people in the US and
(22:21):
yes I mean US rights in Breitbart make a big
deal out of something that's going on or the cartel,
various cartel controlling a city and doing bad things, and
then Mexico will send its military in, right, and then
if that military starts doing corrupted things and we report
on it, then Mexico sends their navy in, right, their marines.
(22:45):
That's the only time they're really represented is when people
in the US raise an issue with it. So, you know,
not a lot of hope for the politics in Mexico
at this time, it's all very corrupted. All of the
parties have had their ties to cartels when they were
in positions of power. The you know, the current party,
(23:05):
Animost Party, which is what Scheinbaum is part of. Their
current president is very well connected to to various drug cartels,
specifically c JMG. The last president was very well connected
to the Sinaloa cartel. And this is this is just
how it goes there. But back to what we were
(23:28):
talking about with the protests, this is a recurrent problem
we have. Like, as someone who's covered this for so
many years, I feel very successful that, you know, the
candidate that that was largely you know, supported by Breitbart
or given a fair shake by Breibart and no one
else ends up becoming president and then cares about the
(23:50):
issues we cared about.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Right.
Speaker 8 (23:52):
I love that everyone focuses on the border. I love
that everyone is trying to focus on cartels. But it
is very frustrating to SPA in so many years, developing
sources and knowing what's going on there, and people just
take cheap shots and find a video of a protest
and say, oh it needs this, and oh the cartels
are doing this, or this video is the cartel doing this?
(24:15):
And none of it is almost none of it is accurate.
So what we do is we just every time it happens,
you know, we just run a headline like no, no,
Mexico is not about to have a revolution, or know
the cartel did not just do this, or no, you know,
we just have to run these kind of debunking headlines
that gently debunk people while also appreciating the fact that
(24:39):
they're trying to cover it. Right, We just want them
to definitely cover it. But but you know, do a
little work, right, don't take cheap shots and just find
something on Twitter and run with it like it's like
you have the inside scoop or something, right, you know
what I mean?
Speaker 2 (24:55):
Yeah, No, it gets frustrating when you've put in the
work and you've done the hour and in days on
end and then somebody just kind of blows the whole
thing up just for cheap clips clicks. Of course, yeah, that.
Speaker 8 (25:07):
Would that would That's a pretty common thing. But we
are very happy that people are covering it. We're happy that,
you know, they wouldn't be covering it if it didn't
get clicked. And the fact that it gets it gets clicked.
Means that that we have not only have we been successful,
but others who have tried to cover this issue have
been successful. It means that the Republican Party and Donald Trump,
(25:30):
that wing of the Republican Party has been successful and
getting people to care about Mexico based cartels and and
our borders. So, uh, there's a lot of positives about it,
But no, we don't think that this time that this
is on the level of of you know, pulling out,
pulling the president out of the palace or anything like that.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
That really sucks because I was getting ready to yell
Viva Revolution many times on the radio just to work
on my Spanish Chris. I was gonna shout it and
play mariachi music and that failed. Well, all that talk
about Mexico, and now we're about to leave there, Brandon,
because El Salvador is a place that obviously it's getting
a lot of pub on the right because it's a
(26:13):
place that went from very dangerous to very safe, and
we're going to assign very simple things to that. But
I figured, here's my question, losing that many criminals in
the same region that the world surely created a vacuum
of some kind. What has been the fallout? What did
they do and what has been the fallout from it?
Speaker 8 (26:35):
You know, man, there's a there's a county north of Austin,
Texas called Williamson County. Right, we're round rockets and so forth,
and most people, like when I was younger, people I
knew who had marijuana or whatever, they would drive around
Williamson County. Nobody wanted to drive through Williamson County, right,
(26:57):
because they are so strict on it for the laws
and pulling people over, and they are so strict on
actually prosecuting every crime that yes, they put all their
criminals away, but other criminals don't want to go there, right,
And I think that that's a lot of what's happened
in Osalvador. They got Buquelee, I believe his name. There's
(27:20):
a president. He went in, he built a prison, He
cracked down on MS thirteen. This was a country that
was overrun with MS thirteen. He cracked down on them
in such a significant way. I'm sure there's some human
rights abuses. I'm sure there's overreactions, and there's probably a
few people who maybe shouldn't have gotten caught up in it.
(27:41):
I'm sure there's all kinds of dirty mess that's happening,
but you know, we're in a situation looking at them
where we can judge because we have a functioning country right,
as imperfect as we are, they did not have one right.
So it's you know, many have said it must be
(28:03):
nice to make a decision between right and wrong, or
good and bad, because most of the world has to
make decisions between bad and worse right, and that's a
complicated issue. So so he built a prison, he started
doing parceraate ms thirteen gang members and cracked down on
them in a brutal way, and now his country is
(28:23):
flourishing because of it. So I get from our liberal
neoliberal sensibilities, We're like, hey, that's they are human rights violations,
kind of like the thread boat thing. I totally get it.
But all of those loved ones who watch their kids
like die from sentinel and cocaine and heroin, I promise
you they a lot of them feel a sense of
(28:46):
justice when those boats bringing poison into our country are
blown up by Donald J. Trump, Right, And that's a
lot of the situation that's going on in O Salvadors.
It's just the way things have to be. And you
know there's I don't want to on airsr wone, but
everyone likes to do lion stuff. Everyone wants to be
a lion until it's time to do lion stuff. Now
(29:08):
there's a curse word in there that people usually use,
but we'll say stuff right. Everyone wants to be a
lion until it's time to do lion stuff. And that
president he did the lion stuff. He did what he
needed to do for his country. And that's really to me.
It's that simple.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
I'm gonna go there, I'm gonna visit and I'm gonna
try all the food. That's what I'm gonna do. Brandon,
thank you, my man. I appreciate you as always. Chris,
what do we know about El Salvadorian food? I haven't
heard anything that's generally not a good sign. I mean, look,
I saw there's a place in Houston. I don't know
if it's still open, but it was Taste of Nigeria.
(29:46):
So clearly everybody's getting a restaurant at this point in time.
But El Salvadorian food, I bet it's delicious. We'll be back.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
You're listening to the auricle.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
Love this one.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
It's a scream Baby the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 2 (30:02):
It is The Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful Monday.
Remember you can email us Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com.
So I am curious about this El Salvadorian food. Chris
says it's all gonna taste like Mexican food. I think
that's a little stereotypical of Latino people, Chris. I don't
(30:23):
think that that's necessarily accurate. No, beans and beef aren't delicious.
Beef is delicious. Beans discussed. Beans are disgusting. I'm assuming
there are going to be some tortez. I'm assuming there's
gonna be cheese. There's gonna be cheese, right, I want
to try it. But why don't we have any El
(30:47):
Salvadorian restaurants? That that's a little frightening. That's one two.
Before I get back to the stories, I have to
confess something. I believe I inadvertently misused one of my
(31:08):
really special skills, and I feel terrible about it. Looking
back on it, I think I would have done something different.
I almost feel like like maybe Superman shaking someone's hand
a little too hard and he broke it because he
forgot about his super strength. So here's what happened. I
(31:32):
am conscious of the fact that I am enormous. I
am six foot eight. I know that that is it
can be intimidating, especially for women, if someone like that
is behind you for any reason. Because of that, I
try to be conscious of super super conscious of I
(31:55):
try not to stand right behind him. I try not
to stand too close to anybody. I'm conscious of the
fact that women feel more like prey than men do,
for obvious reasons, and especially because there's a lot of
scumbag predators out there. So if I'm in public, especially
if I'm alone, if there's a woman walking in front
(32:18):
of me, I will give way more distance than I
probably need to give, because I understand if I'm within
ten feet, you know that sounds far. You look around
and there's a six foot eight guy ten feet behind you.
As a woman, I understand that can freak you out.
And I don't ever want to freak a woman out.
Now I would feel bad about that. Now, let's set
(32:39):
that part aside. Let's remember this part before we get
back to the politics. I am much more covert than
you think I am. I have I don't know what
it is, Chris. Maybe it's a Maybe it's an athletic thing,
even though I'm not athletic. Maybe this is a hidden
athleticism where I'm very, very quiet. It's not intentional, I
(33:05):
should note. This is why I think it's just one
of these god given abilities. I move with such stealth.
I'm constantly freaking ab out in the house. She's always
yelping when I walk in the room. I didn't think
I was doing anything wrong. She just didn't hear me
coming because I almost glide a put it that almost
(33:27):
glide around without sound, similar to Ninja like in the movies.
I'm walking into the building. This was not yesterday. This
is Friday. I forgot to tell you this on Friday.
I'm walking into the building on Friday. There's a lady
walking in front of me. Right at the entrance of
our building. There's a trash can obviously stop throw your
(33:52):
trash in there. I'm walking behind her from the parking
lot into the building. I have given her a distance,
like I always do, conscious of the fact, as a
young lady in front of me, I don't want her
to think, oh wow, who's the jolly green giant ogre
behind her. So I've stayed safely back. But she stops
(34:14):
at the trash can. Well what am I supposed to do?
I can't stop there awkwardly now? But I naively in
my mind I assumed that surely she heard that I
was behind her. Surely she saw my reflection in the glass.
Surely she How could you not see that bigfoot is
(34:37):
behind you? But I forgot about my self. I forgot
that I wasn't walking through the parking lot. What, Chris,
I was gliding through the parking lot. She stops at
the trash can. I continue walking towards the door. Maybe
in hindsight, I should have been like that kind of thing,
(35:00):
Maybe I should have declared myself in some way. Instead,
I continue to walk towards the door, walked right up
past her to where I'm two feet away, because she's
standing right by the door, and she looks and whoa
like freaks out back. She's like, oh, sorry, he really
scared me. And I said, I'm so sorry. I did
(35:20):
not mean to do that. What Chris, what? I know
what's on her? But you can't ask a woman to
be self aware in that way. No, What I wasn't
trying to be mean, there was that mean no especially
a younger woman. Did you say if you'd seen younger
(35:40):
women and how I'm not self aware they are They'll
go to one of the most dangerous big cities. I
remember when I went to Boston. I went to Boston
and half the city was young women with noise canceling
headphones on their heads, jogging by themselves around the city.
And I remember looking and thinking, what in the what
in the what kind of world do you think you
live in? Who is surrounding you here? You have freaking
(36:03):
wolves all over the place. So maybe it's just a
young woman thing. But mostly it was my stealth, my gliding.
I forgot about it, and I freaked her out, and
I feel bad what I was trying to be a
nice person, Chris. It was a learning experience for her,
you know what, She got off easy this time, pal,
(36:23):
Maybe next time, who knows, it'll be somebody from Somalia.
Have you heard of well buying things you can touch
and feel? You heard of that? Have you heard of?
Speaker 1 (36:38):
Gold?
Speaker 2 (36:40):
Gold? Co has been trying to scream it at people
from the rooftops for a very long time. Over ten years,
they've piled up awards they've piled up an A plus
rating from the Better Business Bureau. Not by being scam artists,
by being the honest broker in the precious metals industry.

This is a Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 2 (00:15):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show, another hour of the
Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful Monday, and we have
a bunch of stuff we're gonna get to this hour.
I am gonna get to some emails. I'm gonna talk
to you about a very particular set of skills. I
have Brandon Darby's coming up about a half hour from now,
(00:35):
but we don't have time for any of that right now,
because you know what time it is. It is time
for Medal of Honor Monday, where we honor one of
our heroes. We remember his name and his deeds. We
tell our children about what he did and give them
something wonderful to aspire to so they don't try to
be the YouTube star they're currently watching on their phones
(00:58):
when they should be listening to The Jesse Kelly Show.
And do remember. You can email you love, your hate,
your death threats to Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com.
You can also email in Medal of Honor recommendations. If
you have ones that are close to you, friend, neighbor,
from your hometown, just ones you like, You're welcome to
(01:22):
email those in This guy did he said, Jesse, I'd
like to recommend Army Medic Specialist five James C. McLoughlin
for Medal of Honor Monday. This hero is from South Haven, Michigan.
Was awarded the Medal of Honor in twenty seventeen for
actions that took place over three days in May of
(01:44):
nineteen sixty nine. Although he was wounded the first and
second days of a three day battle, he kept fighting,
saved the lives of ten men, took out an RPG location.
After his tour of duty and Vietnam, he spent forty
years as a teacher. How about that? So, without further ado,
let's find out what mister James C. McLoughlin of South Haven,
(02:08):
Michigan did in Vietnam.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Hey honoring those who went above and beyond its Medal
of Honor Monday.
Speaker 2 (02:23):
Private first Class James C. McLoughlin distinguished himself by acts
of gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of his life,
above and beyond the call of duty from May thirteenth
to fifteenth, nineteen sixty nine, while serving as a combat
medic with Company C, third Battalion, twenty first Infantry, one
(02:44):
hundred and ninety six Light Infantry Brigade, Americal Division, the
company air assaulted into an area near camp near tam
Kai in Noi Yon Hill on May thirteenth. With complete
disregard for his life, he ran one hundred meters in
an open field through heavy fire to rescue a comrade
(03:05):
too injured to move and carried him to safety. That
same day, second patoon was ordered to search the area
near Neu Yan Hill when the platoon command commander was
ambushed by a large North Vietnamese Army force and sustained
heavy casualties with complete disregard for his life and personal safety.
(03:26):
Private first Class mcloffin led two Americans into the safety
of a trench while being wounded by shrapnel from a
rocket propelled grenade. He ignored a direct order to stay
back and braved an enemy assault while moving into the
kill zone on four more occasions to extract wounded comrades.
(03:47):
He treated the injured, prepared the evacuation, and, though bleeding
heavily from shrapnel wounds on his head and body, refused
evacuation to safety in order to remain at the battle
site with his fellows soldiers who were heavily outnumbered by
North Vietnamese Army forces. On May fourteenth, the platoon was
(04:07):
again ordered to move out towards Noiyan Hill. Private first
class mcloffin was wounded a second time by small arms
fire and shrapnel from a rocket propelled grenade while rendering
aid to two soldiers in an open rice patty. In
the final phases of the attack, two companies from the
second North Vietnamese Army Division and an element of seven
(04:30):
hundred soldiers from a viet Cong regiment descended upon Company
Sea's position on three sides. Private first Class mcloffin, again
with complete disregard for his life, went into the crossfire
numerous times throughout the battle to extract wounded soldiers while
also fighting the enemy. His relentless and courageous actions inspired
(04:53):
and motivated his comrades to fight for their survival. When
supplies ran low, Private at first Class mcloffin volunteered to
hold a blinking strobe light in an open area as
a marker for a nighttime resupply route. Good grief exposing
his body. During the morning darkness of May fifteenth, Private
(05:14):
first Class mcloffin took out or knocked out a rocket
propelled grenade position with a grenade thought and eliminated enemy soldiers,
treated numerous casualties, kept two critically wounded soldiers alive during
the night, and organized the dead and wounded for evacuation
at daylight. His timely and courageous actions were instrumental in
(05:36):
saving the lives of his fellow soldiers. Private first Class
mcloffin's personal heroism, professional competence, and devotion to duty are
in keeping with the highest traditions of military service and
reflect great credit upon himself, the Americal Division and the
United States Army. My man had himself a good few days. Huh,
(06:00):
horrible few days, but that gone. And you know, you
just know when he took out that RPG, you know
that was totally the one who wounded him twice already,
and you know he was just stewing about it. I'm
totally guessing on this, but you know he was just
stewing about it. I'm gonna get that, and I'm toningly
right now, I'm gonna get that freaking guy. You've got
to shrap no wound in your head and your body,
(06:22):
and you're just thinking, I'm gonna kill him before I die.
I swear on my life, I will forty years as
a teacher. It's it's wonderful how often that seems to happen.
And maybe I'm maybe I'm blowing this up too much
in my mind because I know guys who I was
in Iraq with they moved on to be teachers. I've
(06:45):
heard of other guys in my kids' school veterans are
going into the teaching profession. If you are a veteran,
perhaps you're looking for something. You know, there's nobody better
to guide young minds than you. Consider if possible, going
(07:05):
into the teaching profession. Just consider it, That's all I'm saying. Considerate.
Also consider this. Communists lie about everything at all times.
Speaker 3 (07:16):
In my state included, which is one of the most
blessed and cursed states. As it relates to climate, we're
on the tip of the sphere of climate change, simultaneous
droughts and simultaneous floods.
Speaker 4 (07:30):
The hots are getting a lot hotter, the dry is
drier you want.
Speaker 2 (07:33):
Them, it's drouting and flooding.
Speaker 5 (07:35):
Of course, the most devastating wildfires in American history in
the middle of winter in Los Angeles.
Speaker 2 (07:43):
Yeah, they already caught the artsonists. But remember how the
communist views the concept of truth words themselves. What is
the point of all of it? You know why you
tell the truth? You believe, whatever your belief system, that
that is right. You don't want to lie because it
is wrong. But the communist does not share your value system.
Speaker 6 (08:06):
Think are reverence for the truth might become might have
become a bit of a distraction that is preventing us
from finding consensus and getting important things done.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Did you know over eighty percent of wildfires some say
the number is north of ninety are caused by man.
And I don't mean your suv. I'm talking arsonists setting
them intentionally. I'm talking about people flicking cigarette butts out
the window, maybe starting a campfire when it's dry and
the mountains without any idea what you're getting into. But
(08:38):
all those wildfires, Man's lighting them all. But it gives
communists the opportunity to destroy more of your economy, steal
more of your liberty, and loot the treasury in the
interest of handing it out to their large donors in
the solar industry. So they'll hop on private jets like
(08:59):
Gavin us did and fly all the way down to
Brazil and say things like.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
This, in my state included, which is one of the
most blessed and cursed states as it relates to climate,
we're on the tip of the sphere of climate change,
simultaneous droughts and simultaneous floods.
Speaker 4 (09:18):
The hots are getting a lot hotter, the dry is drier.
Speaker 5 (09:21):
You saw one of the most devastating wildfires in American
history in the middle of winter in Los Angeles in January.
Speaker 4 (09:30):
One hundred mile hour winds attached to fire.
Speaker 2 (09:36):
The fire hydrants ran out of water. They already caught
the guy who lit the fire. California won't clear out
the dead underbrush one hundred percent man made. And he
knows that if you sat him down and hooked him
up to a lot of detector he knows everything I
just said. But remember that doesn't matter. This thing of.
Speaker 6 (10:00):
Truth I think are reverence for the truth might become
might have become a bit of a distraction that is
preventing us from finding consensus and getting important things done.
Speaker 2 (10:10):
He's trying to get things done, you see, he doesn't
have time for the facts. All right, we are going
to get to some economic matters. We're going to get
to this reporting about the would be Trump assassin. We
still have to get to Brandon Darby. There's just so
much to get to on the show. But first we
have to make sure we know names, don't we It's
(10:32):
met Ale of honor Monday. I thought it'd be a
good time. Do you know have you ever heard of
the name US Army Warrant Officer one Stuart Wayman? You
ever heard of that name? Well, there was a midair collision.
He was in Army, graduated Army Aviation school. All that
midair collision, he lost his life, left behind a wife
(10:54):
and three sons. You by giving eleven dollars a month
to Tunnel to Towers paid off the mortgage on the
family's home. Doesn't bring Stuart back. Nothing ever can bring
Dad back for Christmas Day? Not saying it does. But
then you want to talk about a way to ease
(11:15):
at least some kind of a burden on the family.
That's what Tunnel to Towers does. And this is their season,
the season of hope. It's time. Eleven bucks a month
is all they ask for. T the number two T
dot org T twot dot org. We'll be back.
Speaker 1 (11:33):
You're listening to the oracle.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
You love this one. It's a scream Baby.
Speaker 1 (11:38):
The Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
It is The Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Monday,
a Medal of Honor Monday. Remember, if you missed any
part of the show, you can download the whole thing
on iHeart, Spotify, iTunes. I shouldn't breeze over this. When
I bring up gigantic communist lies, and when I talk
about communists lying about everything at all times, it does.
(12:01):
It has had a devastating effect on America, specifically America's
mental health. And so I just played you. I'm not
going to play it again. I can't stand his stupid voice.
Gavin Newsom flying down to Brazil and saying California's fire,
the Palisades fire was caused by climate change, which is
did not write lies started by an arson. But setting
that aside, this is what these lies, these constant lies,
(12:26):
the world of lies the communists create for your liberal
and Peggy, this is the results.
Speaker 7 (12:31):
It doesn't take long for me to pick up on
this people.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
This is a psychotherapist on Fox News.
Speaker 7 (12:36):
By the way, it doesn't take long for me to
pick up on this. People are obsessed with Trump, They're fixated,
they're hyper fixated on Trump, and they talk about some
of the features of this disorder. They can't sleep, they
feel traumatized by mister Trump, they feel restless. I had
(12:56):
one patient who said she couldn't enjoy a vacation because
anytime she's Trump and the news are on her device,
she felt triggered. So this is a profound pathology, and
I would even go so far as to call it
the defining pathology of our time.
Speaker 2 (13:13):
How devastating. And if you're one of these people, one
of these democrats in the media, one of these Democrat politicians,
he taught us to inject bleach. He said Nazis were
very fine people. He colluded with Russia. I want you
to know you're a bad person. You are You're a
terrible human being. And the things you do on behalf
(13:34):
of the revolution are really evil things, because you know
what what you're doing is you're abusing disabled people. Those
are Democrat voters. Mentally disabled people like Democrat voters. They're
susceptible to your lives, and so you tell them huge lies,
You wreck their soul, wreck their mental health, and all
for power. It's very evil oracle. I've been very disappointed
(13:58):
with Trump two point zero deep ortation numbers. But think
you made a great point acknowledging the runway needed to
be built up to the mass deportation machine. What is
your concern level regarding deportation numbers wavering next year in
the midterms. I'm worried the administration won't have the stomach
to ramp up the numbers and in create Okay, uh,
(14:19):
thanks for all you do. Yeah, like I said, and
I mean, I don't want to make a presidency, a
four year presidency, into something that's overly simple, because the
president has so many jobs and they're all important. So
I'm not trying to make this overly simple. But for
my overly simple mind, if you ask me, hey, what
(14:40):
would be a metric to measure how successful the Trump
administration is? Trump two point zero, I would say, is
he going to port ten million plus people? I know
that's overly simple, but as I've explained a million times before,
the mass deportation of fifty million people plus is necessary
(15:01):
to save the country. If we do it, we do
save the country. If we can't do it, we have
no country left to save. It has to be done.
So far that Trump administration has been deporting people remember
when you count self, deportations were over two million, and
he's building an immigration machine that will help him deport more.
(15:23):
That's why they're beefing up one hundred and fifty thousand
new ICE agents. That's why your leadership shake ups. Every
indication is that they are one hundred percent committed to
mass deportations and they intend to get it done. That
we've seen nothing, and I would tell you if we
had that shows they're deviating from that. As of right now,
they're building the machine, the deportation machine. So if we're
(15:46):
just going to follow this logically, if that's two million
this year, that's three million next year, right, maybe four
million the following year, maybe whatever, Umber's ten million. You
asked me if I'm going to consider him a successful president,
I'm going to tell you that I need ten million deportations,
(16:08):
and I think there's a chance he's going to do it.
He looks committed to doing it. He does gotta have
credit words do if we're going to insult, you know
they epstein this and mishandled that or insult your gotta
give credit words due. This is the most committed administration
I've ever seen to deportation. They are. Now, your question
is are they going to get squeamish in the mid terms.
(16:33):
I haven't seen any indication they're going to get squeamish,
but we may have a little feather in our cap
that we weren't thinking about. Trump is a lamb duck.
He's never going to be a politician again. He's never
going to be president ever ever again. And I know
there are powerful interests around him who want to stay
(16:56):
in politics of JD. Vance and these types. I understand
there are other people who have aspirations for the future.
I get that, but most of this comes from Trump.
It's himself, not the House, not the Senate, not even JD. Vance.
Most of it comes from Trump himself. I don't think
Donald Trump wants to be wiped out in the midterms,
(17:16):
so he has some motivation there. But I think Donald
Trump understands, or at least the indication is right now
that he understands, we have to have mass deportations to
save the country. They remember, if he gets to ten million,
that's roughly half the number Joe Biden brought in. Because
(17:37):
you can't bail water as fast as it comes in,
we would need another four or eight years to finish
up just what Joe Biden did, and then we got
to work on everyone who came in beforehand. We have
years and years, a decade more. Can he get to
ten in four years? I think he can. If they
start to wos out in the midterms, Hey, no more
of this, only the really violent ones, then we're probably
(17:59):
pretty cooked. Have you, by the way, heard about Chalk's
Black Friday Special? Did you know you've heard me talk
about choclt powder before. Choclt powder is freaking glorious. It's
obviously chocolate flavored, but it's good for you. It's pack
(18:20):
full of vitamins and minerals. You want to start your
day with choclp powder, you'd put it in a glass
of milk or a smoothi oudputs it in the smoothie
every morning. Chalk has a Black Friday special running right
now during the month of November. When you go to

c ho q dot com get a subscription something Male
Vitality Stack or Female Vitality Sick whatever. Chalk dot Com

it happen. Now. There was all kinds of video running
around online of a protest in Mexico. Looked a little spicy.
(19:08):
People were talking about Viva Revolution. What Chris, I almost said, perfect,
Let's ask Brandon Darby about that next.
Speaker 1 (19:18):
He doesn't care if you believe him, but he's right,
Jesse Kelly.
Speaker 2 (19:25):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Monday. Gosh, Chris,
turn it off. I knew Darby picked it and van
Halen is so overrated. Joining me now, my friend Brandon Darby,
of course with the cartel chronicles bright Bard, Brandon, come on,
van Halen, what are we doing here?
Speaker 8 (19:46):
I know, I know, but he picked it, not me?
Speaker 2 (19:51):
All right? First of all, is there a group of
freedom fighters getting ready to cast off the government of Mexico?
Because I saw your protesters out there. And then a
bunch of bad internet rumors started floating around what's happening
down in Mexico City.
Speaker 8 (20:06):
Well, I started to see that too. I was on
Twitter and x or whatever they call it nowadays, and
I saw that. You know, Alex Jones said that there
was about to be a revolution, and a number of
other folks were tweeting out videos saying there's about to
be a revolution, and it turns out assist an average
run of the mill protest, which is common in Mexico City.
(20:30):
You know, elections are coming up and the parties are
whipping up their bases to protest one thing or another
about the current president. So not not any difference than
what we routinely see in DC. You know, some arrests
were made, people get wild, and there's always revolutionaries in Mexico, right,
(20:52):
But I don't think that's what this is not at
this time.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
Okay, So that's actually why I wanted to bring on
one to clarify some of the information that gets tossed
out there. But two, we don't understand Americans, don't. I
know you do the politics of Mexico, of Mexicans, of
the Is there a Republican and Democrat? Is it twenty
different parties? Who are the parties down there?
Speaker 3 (21:16):
Right?
Speaker 5 (21:17):
Right?
Speaker 8 (21:17):
So there's a number of different parties. But what you
have to understand is their right wingers are kind of
akin to our Democrats, and then their left wingers are
kind of akin to Arcasio Cortes, and then they're ultra
left wingers, like they still have resistance movements, you like
the Zapatistas and so their resistance movements are you know,
(21:38):
Marxist and really really really far far left. But the
politics that are really you know, we're saying this is
why they outlaw guns is because no one is really
no one really feels represented unless you're very wealthy there right,
(21:59):
like you have, you have communities along the US Mexico border.
They call it the fronterra right, the borderlands, and they
are just completely underrepresented in their government, Like what their
needs are does not seem to matter. The only time
that their needs are taken care of in the border communities,
their security needs is when people in the US and
(22:21):
yes I mean US rights in Breitbart make a big
deal out of something that's going on or the cartel,
various cartel controlling a city and doing bad things, and
then Mexico will send its military in, right, and then
if that military starts doing corrupted things and we report
on it, then Mexico sends their navy in, right, their marines.
(22:45):
That's the only time they're really represented is when people
in the US raise an issue with it. So, you know,
not a lot of hope for the politics in Mexico
at this time, it's all very corrupted. All of the
parties have had their ties to cartels when they were
in positions of power. The you know, the current party,
(23:05):
Animost Party, which is what Scheinbaum is part of. Their
current president is very well connected to to various drug cartels,
specifically c JMG. The last president was very well connected
to the Sinaloa cartel. And this is this is just
how it goes there. But back to what we were
(23:28):
talking about with the protests, this is a recurrent problem
we have. Like, as someone who's covered this for so
many years, I feel very successful that, you know, the
candidate that that was largely you know, supported by Breitbart
or given a fair shake by Breibart and no one
else ends up becoming president and then cares about the
(23:50):
issues we cared about.
Speaker 2 (23:51):
Right.
Speaker 8 (23:52):
I love that everyone focuses on the border. I love
that everyone is trying to focus on cartels. But it
is very frustrating to SPA in so many years, developing
sources and knowing what's going on there, and people just
take cheap shots and find a video of a protest
and say, oh it needs this, and oh the cartels
are doing this, or this video is the cartel doing this?
(24:15):
And none of it is almost none of it is accurate.
So what we do is we just every time it happens,
you know, we just run a headline like no, no,
Mexico is not about to have a revolution, or know
the cartel did not just do this, or no, you know,
we just have to run these kind of debunking headlines
that gently debunk people while also appreciating the fact that
(24:39):
they're trying to cover it. Right, We just want them
to definitely cover it. But but you know, do a
little work, right, don't take cheap shots and just find
something on Twitter and run with it like it's like
you have the inside scoop or something, right, you know
what I mean?
Speaker 2 (24:55):
Yeah, No, it gets frustrating when you've put in the
work and you've done the hour and in days on
end and then somebody just kind of blows the whole
thing up just for cheap clips clicks. Of course, yeah, that.
Speaker 8 (25:07):
Would that would That's a pretty common thing. But we
are very happy that people are covering it. We're happy that,
you know, they wouldn't be covering it if it didn't
get clicked. And the fact that it gets it gets clicked.
Means that that we have not only have we been successful,
but others who have tried to cover this issue have
been successful. It means that the Republican Party and Donald Trump,
(25:30):
that wing of the Republican Party has been successful and
getting people to care about Mexico based cartels and and
our borders. So, uh, there's a lot of positives about it,
But no, we don't think that this time that this
is on the level of of you know, pulling out,
pulling the president out of the palace or anything like that.
Speaker 2 (25:53):
That really sucks because I was getting ready to yell
Viva Revolution many times on the radio just to work
on my Spanish Chris. I was gonna shout it and
play mariachi music and that failed. Well, all that talk
about Mexico, and now we're about to leave there, Brandon,
because El Salvador is a place that obviously it's getting
a lot of pub on the right because it's a
(26:13):
place that went from very dangerous to very safe, and
we're going to assign very simple things to that. But
I figured, here's my question, losing that many criminals in
the same region that the world surely created a vacuum
of some kind. What has been the fallout? What did
they do and what has been the fallout from it?
Speaker 8 (26:35):
You know, man, there's a there's a county north of Austin,
Texas called Williamson County. Right, we're round rockets and so forth,
and most people, like when I was younger, people I
knew who had marijuana or whatever, they would drive around
Williamson County. Nobody wanted to drive through Williamson County, right,
(26:57):
because they are so strict on it for the laws
and pulling people over, and they are so strict on
actually prosecuting every crime that yes, they put all their
criminals away, but other criminals don't want to go there, right,
And I think that that's a lot of what's happened
in Osalvador. They got Buquelee, I believe his name. There's
(27:20):
a president. He went in, he built a prison, He
cracked down on MS thirteen. This was a country that
was overrun with MS thirteen. He cracked down on them
in such a significant way. I'm sure there's some human
rights abuses. I'm sure there's overreactions, and there's probably a
few people who maybe shouldn't have gotten caught up in it.
(27:41):
I'm sure there's all kinds of dirty mess that's happening,
but you know, we're in a situation looking at them
where we can judge because we have a functioning country right,
as imperfect as we are, they did not have one right.
So it's you know, many have said it must be
(28:03):
nice to make a decision between right and wrong, or
good and bad, because most of the world has to
make decisions between bad and worse right, and that's a
complicated issue. So so he built a prison, he started
doing parceraate ms thirteen gang members and cracked down on
them in a brutal way, and now his country is
(28:23):
flourishing because of it. So I get from our liberal
neoliberal sensibilities, We're like, hey, that's they are human rights violations,
kind of like the thread boat thing. I totally get it.
But all of those loved ones who watch their kids
like die from sentinel and cocaine and heroin, I promise
you they a lot of them feel a sense of
(28:46):
justice when those boats bringing poison into our country are
blown up by Donald J. Trump, Right, And that's a
lot of the situation that's going on in O Salvadors.
It's just the way things have to be. And you
know there's I don't want to on airsr wone, but
everyone likes to do lion stuff. Everyone wants to be
a lion until it's time to do lion stuff. Now
(29:08):
there's a curse word in there that people usually use,
but we'll say stuff right. Everyone wants to be a
lion until it's time to do lion stuff. And that
president he did the lion stuff. He did what he
needed to do for his country. And that's really to me.
It's that simple.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
I'm gonna go there, I'm gonna visit and I'm gonna
try all the food. That's what I'm gonna do. Brandon,
thank you, my man. I appreciate you as always. Chris,
what do we know about El Salvadorian food? I haven't
heard anything that's generally not a good sign. I mean, look,
I saw there's a place in Houston. I don't know
if it's still open, but it was Taste of Nigeria.
(29:46):
So clearly everybody's getting a restaurant at this point in time.
But El Salvadorian food, I bet it's delicious. We'll be back.
Speaker 1 (29:55):
You're listening to the auricle.
Speaker 2 (29:57):
Love this one.
Speaker 1 (29:58):
It's a scream Baby the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 2 (30:02):
It is The Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful Monday.
Remember you can email us Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com.
So I am curious about this El Salvadorian food. Chris
says it's all gonna taste like Mexican food. I think
that's a little stereotypical of Latino people, Chris. I don't
(30:23):
think that that's necessarily accurate. No, beans and beef aren't delicious.
Beef is delicious. Beans discussed. Beans are disgusting. I'm assuming
there are going to be some tortez. I'm assuming there's
gonna be cheese. There's gonna be cheese, right, I want
to try it. But why don't we have any El
(30:47):
Salvadorian restaurants? That that's a little frightening. That's one two.
Before I get back to the stories, I have to
confess something. I believe I inadvertently misused one of my
(31:08):
really special skills, and I feel terrible about it. Looking
back on it, I think I would have done something different.
I almost feel like like maybe Superman shaking someone's hand
a little too hard and he broke it because he
forgot about his super strength. So here's what happened. I
(31:32):
am conscious of the fact that I am enormous. I
am six foot eight. I know that that is it
can be intimidating, especially for women, if someone like that
is behind you for any reason. Because of that, I
try to be conscious of super super conscious of I
(31:55):
try not to stand right behind him. I try not
to stand too close to anybody. I'm conscious of the
fact that women feel more like prey than men do,
for obvious reasons, and especially because there's a lot of
scumbag predators out there. So if I'm in public, especially
if I'm alone, if there's a woman walking in front
(32:18):
of me, I will give way more distance than I
probably need to give, because I understand if I'm within
ten feet, you know that sounds far. You look around
and there's a six foot eight guy ten feet behind you.
As a woman, I understand that can freak you out.
And I don't ever want to freak a woman out.
Now I would feel bad about that. Now, let's set
(32:39):
that part aside. Let's remember this part before we get
back to the politics. I am much more covert than
you think I am. I have I don't know what
it is, Chris. Maybe it's a Maybe it's an athletic thing,
even though I'm not athletic. Maybe this is a hidden
athleticism where I'm very, very quiet. It's not intentional, I
(33:05):
should note. This is why I think it's just one
of these god given abilities. I move with such stealth.
I'm constantly freaking ab out in the house. She's always
yelping when I walk in the room. I didn't think
I was doing anything wrong. She just didn't hear me
coming because I almost glide a put it that almost
(33:27):
glide around without sound, similar to Ninja like in the movies.
I'm walking into the building. This was not yesterday. This
is Friday. I forgot to tell you this on Friday.
I'm walking into the building on Friday. There's a lady
walking in front of me. Right at the entrance of
our building. There's a trash can obviously stop throw your
(33:52):
trash in there. I'm walking behind her from the parking
lot into the building. I have given her a distance,
like I always do, conscious of the fact, as a
young lady in front of me, I don't want her
to think, oh wow, who's the jolly green giant ogre
behind her. So I've stayed safely back. But she stops
(34:14):
at the trash can. Well what am I supposed to do?
I can't stop there awkwardly now? But I naively in
my mind I assumed that surely she heard that I
was behind her. Surely she saw my reflection in the glass.
Surely she How could you not see that bigfoot is
(34:37):
behind you? But I forgot about my self. I forgot
that I wasn't walking through the parking lot. What, Chris,
I was gliding through the parking lot. She stops at
the trash can. I continue walking towards the door. Maybe
in hindsight, I should have been like that kind of thing,
(35:00):
Maybe I should have declared myself in some way. Instead,
I continue to walk towards the door, walked right up
past her to where I'm two feet away, because she's
standing right by the door, and she looks and whoa
like freaks out back. She's like, oh, sorry, he really
scared me. And I said, I'm so sorry. I did
(35:20):
not mean to do that. What Chris, what? I know
what's on her? But you can't ask a woman to
be self aware in that way. No, What I wasn't
trying to be mean, there was that mean no especially
a younger woman. Did you say if you'd seen younger
(35:40):
women and how I'm not self aware they are They'll
go to one of the most dangerous big cities. I
remember when I went to Boston. I went to Boston
and half the city was young women with noise canceling
headphones on their heads, jogging by themselves around the city.
And I remember looking and thinking, what in the what
in the what kind of world do you think you
live in? Who is surrounding you here? You have freaking
(36:03):
wolves all over the place. So maybe it's just a
young woman thing. But mostly it was my stealth, my gliding.
I forgot about it, and I freaked her out, and
I feel bad what I was trying to be a
nice person, Chris. It was a learning experience for her,
you know what, She got off easy this time, pal,
(36:23):
Maybe next time, who knows, it'll be somebody from Somalia.

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