Speaker 1 (00:10):
This is a Jesse Kelly Show. It is the Jesse
Kelly Show. Final hour of The Jesse Kelly Show on
a wonderful Wednesday, I'll hope day.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
As we turned through everything, So we're gonna do some
sound bites here. We're gonna talk about a couple of
things James Comys. We're about to address, well, big fun
of Michelle Obama, some more talk about Katanji Brown Jackson
embarrassing herself, your emails, and so much more coming up
in the final hour. So, James Comy, he's in some
(00:44):
legal trouble. I have never and I will never over
promise on these things.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
I don't know how much legal trouble because of the
jurisdiction he's going to be tried in. All it takes
is one Communist on that jury and they're gonna believe
everything James Comy did was justified. But we forget why
they did some of the things they did. In twenty
twenty sixteen, we forget remember Barack Obama got elected in
(01:15):
two thousand and eight. In twenty sixteen, Donald Trump was
challenging Hillary Clinton. It's easy to forget, or maybe you're
new to politics since then, it's easy to forget that
Hillary Clinton was supposed to win that election. Hindsight's twenty twenty.
Now everybody, every poll showed it. Everybody this side of
(01:38):
Selina Zito thought that Hillary Clinton was going to win
that election. Barack Obama launched the operation he launched because
he assumed he was never going to get caught. The
Obama they launched the operation. They launched because they thought, well,
(02:00):
who's going to catch us the next Democrat? And then
when Donald Trump won the election, they freaked out and
used that lag period to launch another operation to try
to handicap Donald Trump. All very evil, all very nefarious.
But I wanted to rewind to this little tidbit. As
(02:21):
Comy's notes are coming out, Remember what James Comy did
a head of the as head of the FBI. It's
just unbelievable. He got a friend to leak information to
the media. You're not allowed to do that. That's against
the law. You cannot meet with your friends as head
of the FBI and say hey, Bob, can you leak
this to the New York Times? That you can't do that.
(02:45):
But this is one of the things, one of the
notes that came out. I'm not going to go through
all the details on it, this other stuff, but quote,
someday they will figure it out. My decision will be one.
A president elect Clinton will be very grateful for. That's
(03:06):
what Comy wrote his buddy a month before the twenty
sixteen election. Remember that elections are in November. In October
of twenty sixteen, quote, my decision will be won. A
president elect Clinton will be very grateful for. These people
(03:29):
all operated as if they would always have power. That's
how they thought. It's what they thought. I will always
be in power. I'm going to be here forever, so
I can do whatever I want and I want to.
I just wanted to say this to you about Comy,
(03:50):
and I wanted to play you a couple things, just
to remind you what they did in the Biden administration,
all those evils pales in comparison to what they'll do again.
The only lesson the communists in this country learned was
they didn't do enough evil. They didn't hit us hard enough.
(04:12):
They didn't arrest enough of us that that's the only
lesson they learned. Here's James Comy.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
I know Republicans these days aren't big in thinking about
principle or precedent. They're going to be deeply sorry that
that disappears, because someday there will be a democratic president
and there'll be investigations of Republican office holders.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
That was James Comy, here was Derek Holder.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
I think, you know the reality is it pains me
to say this. I think the Supreme Court is a
broken institution and it's something that has to be I
think a part of the national conversation in twenty six
and in twenty eight what are we going to do
about the Supreme Court? And I think that we have
to think about again talking about the acquisition and the
use of power if there is a democratic trifecta in
(04:58):
twenty twenty eight, and I think the possibility of that
is is pretty good. Supreme Court reform is something that
has to be considered. Term limits, I think at a minimum,
potentially expanding the court is something I think that also
should be should be considered.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Need any more motivation for the midterms, What are these
people going to do when they're back in power. I
don't know. Let's go to the crowd of the view.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
I think that it should be in jail.
Speaker 5 (05:23):
Frankly and personally personally, if they.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Would be doing. I think Trump should be in jail
is an applause line. What lessons did these people learn?
Speaker 5 (05:35):
Take away from me that I don't think enough people
are talking about is what happened in California with Prop fifty.
Speaker 6 (05:39):
Yeah we've come to that, yeah comment yea.
Speaker 5 (05:42):
That for me was a huge, huge takeaway because that
is the roadmap for how Democrats become the opposition party.
You meet energy with energy. When they go low, you
go lower.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
California set to spend twenty eight times more on health
benefits for illegal aliens than state police funding twenty eight times.
Why they know where their bread's buttery?
Speaker 7 (06:11):
Speak of Yemeni bodega owners and Mexican ubuelas, Senegalese taxi
drivers and neosbeck nurses, Trinidadian line cooks, and Ethiopian aunties. Yes, aunties.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Would you like to meet the new mayor of Saint Paul, Minnesota?
You know Minneapolis, Saint Paul, They're the twin cities. Would
you like to meet the new mayor of Minneapolis or
of Saint Paul. Oh good, Let me introduce her to you.
Speaker 8 (06:45):
My father, as the one processing the paperwork, put my
grandmother down as his mother and so I am illegal
in this country. My parents are illegal here in this country.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
I'm not making that up. That's the new mayor of
Saint Paul, Minnesota. That's a little flashback that was from June,
but that's the new mayor of Saint Paul, Minnesota. Alex
Soros posts a photo with Mam Donnie after his victory.
George Soros, Alex Soros's father, has expressed multiple times that
(07:24):
he thinks America is an evil place that should be
burned to the ground. Now, the Soro's fortune, it's used
to fund Democrats all across the United States of America.
So I again want to reinforce that. One year from now.
One year from now, we're going to have the midterms.
(07:47):
What are we going to do to ensure Democrats do
not take the House or potentially the House and the
Senate before the or during the midterms twenty twenty six,
and the tide's going to be against us. It is traditionally,
you know exactly how it goes. The party in power
(08:07):
loses all this seats in the midterms. Now we have
this California Prop fifty, What are we going to do
to make sure that doesn't happen. Are these people going
to control the house? Being undocumented in the United States
is not a crime, and I think it's very important
that all of our listeners understand that, yes, it is,
(08:29):
or we could end up like Germany. German cities cancel
Christmas markets over Islamis terrorism concerns. Huh, hey, Chris, would
you do me a favorite you might need a few minutes.
Would you look up how many Christmas markets in Poland
(08:50):
have been canceled this year over Islamis terrorist concerns? Would
could you look that up? Are you not getting anything? Nothing?
Huh keep looking. I'm sure it's got to be in
there somewhere. You know the difference. Poland minded the imports.
Germany did not. Now, go to a Christmas market in
(09:14):
Germany this year, you may get mowed down. Go to
a Christmas market in Poland, you may have a little
too much hot chocolate and get a sword tummy. That's
what happens when you don't mind the imports. Berger whisper,
I keep hearing that Trump wants the Senate to nuke
the filibuster and worthless. Thune said he doesn't have the votes.
(09:35):
Can you explain explain, like I'm fred what that means.
I thought the filibuster was just a stall tactic. So okay,
So Trump did he talked about this today.
Speaker 9 (09:46):
Here he was sifer Republicans to do what they have
to do, and that's terminate the filibuster. It's the only
way you can do it. And if you don't terminate
the filibuster, you'll be in bad shape. We won't pass
any legislation. There'll be no legislation pass for three and
a quarter. We have three and a quarter years, so
such a long time. But when they can't do an extension,
and John, I think they've done an extension every single
(10:08):
time they've ever been asked forever. This is the first
time they haven't done an extension. Extensions are supposed to
be easy. But if they won't do an extension, they
won't do any bill, even a simple bill.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Right. What's happening? This is something Trump's been hot on
for three four days now. He has come out publicly
and said, nuke the philibuster. What's he talking about? Next time?
Speaker 6 (10:32):
It's the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful Wednesday.
Remember tomorrow's ask doctor Jesse Friday. You need to get
your questions emailed in right now to Jesse at Jesse
kellyshow dot com. That's always a good time. I wanted
to address this one because the filibuster thing keeps coming up,
philibuster this and philibuster.
Speaker 9 (10:54):
That, and it's time for Republicans to do what they
have to do, and that's terminate the filibuster. It's the
only way you can do. And if you don't terminate
the filibuster, you'll be in bad shape. We won't pass
any legislation. There'll be no legislation passed for three in
a quarter. We have three and a quarter years, so
it's a long time. But when they can't do an extension,
and John, I think they've done an extension every single
(11:16):
time they've ever been asked forever. This is the first
time they haven't done an extension. Extensions.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Let me explain. Let me explain Trump's motivation for this.
Democrats have shown Trump during this shutdown. They have shown
him that it's impossible to work with them. In fact,
they have shown him that they'll just torch the entire
country in order to get him. He really knew that anyway,
(11:45):
But they've really, really proven it, we'll just shut down
the government for a month. So that's what they've shown him,
all right. So there's that. Then there's this Donald Trump,
like all presidents, wants to do things. And it's perfectly natural.
You if you were ever given the oval office, if
(12:06):
I can make you president tomorrow, you would want to
do things right. You would want to do things, wouldn't
you want? And you probably have your own idea depending
on your motivations. You would you would have a piece
of legislation of some kind. Maybe it's a border wall,
but whatever, term whatever, you would have something something you
(12:28):
think is critically important, and you would want to get
it done right. Now. Picture this, I hand you the
White House. You only have one term. You are ten
months into your first term. You are looking out over
the house in the Senate. You're looking at our mid
(12:48):
term prospects might not go well, probably won't for us,
and you're saying to yourself, I have a year. I
have one year to pass, but I don't know what
piece of legislation or multiple pieces Donald Trump is hot on.
But you have one year to pass a piece of legislation,
(13:12):
and if you don't in that year, you will not
pass one for your entire four years as president of
the United States of America. I'm not saying you would
immediately come out and say nuke the filibuster. That's not
what I'm saying. But you would think about it, wouldn't you.
Wouldn't you? Donald Trump is thinking about it. Donald Trump
(13:33):
only has three more years left as President of the
United States of America and then he's done in politics.
That's it. That's two terms as president. I'm sure he'll
still do rallies here and this, and I mean, he's
Donald Trump. He's not going to hide in the shadows.
No more Oval Office, no more President, no more mister President,
no more Air Force one. It's all gone three years.
(13:56):
Donald Trump is a doer anyway, construt duction guy, real
estate guy, wants to build things once to get things done.
So in Trump's mind, in order to do that, we
have to nuke the filibuster. What does that mean right now?
In order to pass a law, you have to get
(14:17):
sixty votes in the Senate. There are one hundred senators.
You have to get sixty votes in the Senate in
order to get a law passed. Why is the government
shut down because we can't get sixty votes. It would
require multiple Democrats to participate. Sixty votes is your need?
(14:38):
So Donald Trump's looking at it and says to himself, well,
let's get rid of that requirement. Now, why hasn't this
been done? Why don't they want to do this? But
here's just a little recent history on it. When Harry
Reid was the Senate majority leader, the Republicans were throwing
(15:00):
up roadblocks to things like judges, and Harry Reid came
out and said, well, we can't have this. Barack Obama's
trying to install his communists everywhere. You know what, no
more Republican votes. I don't want to hear this sixty
vote nothing. And Mitch McConnell, one of the few great
things he's ever done, stepped up and said, I'd be
very careful, Harry Reid, because if you do this, we're
(15:23):
going to do this back to you. Just know that
we're going to do it back to you. So if
you do it, you get your judges, you better enjoy them.
We're going to do it back to you. Harry Reid,
scumbag that he is, said I don't care he did it.
Republicans took the Senate and gave it to him, good
(15:44):
and hard, just like it was promised, Just like it
was promised. The lesson both parties really learned from that
was if you do this, if you take this step,
are you prepared for what comes next? Are you prepared
(16:07):
for what happens when they don't need sixty votes anymore?
Are you ready for it? I don't think we're ready
for it. And here's why. It's not really because of
what they will do. That's not my thinking. I don't
think we're ready for it because tell me the piece
(16:27):
of legislation that's going to needcap communism in this country.
Does it exist? I've not seen it. You can't do
this for a tax cut or something. If we're talking
about passing a piece of legislation that destroys Democrat power
in America, all right now, I'm listening. If we're talking
about passing just legislation Donald Trump wants, that's a very
(16:51):
very bad idea, very very bad idea. Getting some gold
is a very good idea. Getting it in your retirement,
getting it in your four oh one k maybe the
best idea ever. That's one of those ideas that can
really save a large portion of your life. Do you
(17:12):
want to go back to work when you're seventy five
because the stock market popped and now you're busted. Let
gold Cod weave some gold or silver into your retirement account.
Let them get you a twenty twenty five gold and
silver kit so you can read about this. It's not magic,
it's not that at all. Precious metals whold value that
(17:36):
they've had value since long before America existed. They will
have value long after America is gone. That's called reliability.
Call them eight five five eight one seven gold or
visit Jesse Likes goold dot Com. Let gold Code take
care of you. We'll be back.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
You're listening to the love this one.
Speaker 6 (18:02):
It's a scream baby the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
It is The Jesse Kelly Show on a fantastic Wednesday.
So my next guest somebody I know, Brett McDonald. He
is the founder of Nerve News. He's been talking about
a subject that completely fascinates me. I'd never really thought
about it in this way. I find it fascinating. I'm
(18:25):
sure you will as well. So I'm gonna read his
direct quote one of them before I toss the floor
to him. Quote. Cultural advancements are the product of economic
surplus expressed through particular business methodology. What in the world
does that mean? I went to community college. I went
(18:46):
to community college, Brett.
Speaker 6 (18:48):
What are you talking about, hey, Jesse, thanks for having me,
of course. Well, so Andrew Breitbart famously identified culture as
upstream from politics. I think everyone's heard this, and he
was right. But I think that people have a tendency
to view culture as a mirror when in reality it
kind of finds itself driven by forces upstream of itself,
(19:09):
and I think those forces are primarily economic. And none
of this is to say that you don't have any
particular leverage in your culture. It's more to say that
the American people daily meet with this untold level of
friction that inorganically slows their cultural transitions down and prevents
the public from responding in a timely manner to a
known threat like immigration, or like drag Queen Story Hour
(19:33):
or something of that nature. During Trump's first run at office,
there was a lot of talk about shifting the Overton window.
And you probably know this as like the range of
policies that the public will receive and view as acceptable
at any one time. And I think a lot of
people found that it was not so easy to do.
It's like, look, Trump came down the escalator in twenty fifteen.
(19:55):
He told us that illegal immigrants were bringing crime, drugs,
and rape across our border. There was matt the institutional outcry,
it had his remarks, but the public elected him anyway,
and then what happened. It took us a decade to
get the sort of leverage necessary to do anything about it.
And why that might be, I would suggest, is a
force that supersedes culture in many times, and I think
(20:17):
it's very directed from the top down.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Okay, we're going to stay focused on this because this
is something that everybody has heard me scream from the
top of my lungs about all the time. How we
have to deport fifty million people. We have to get
the foreigners out of this country. So how does how
does that work? You say it comes from the top down.
Who's the top what's the motivation? So it's just money?
Speaker 6 (20:41):
Well, yeah, I would I would say in a lot
of cases, it is money. I think immigration is one
of the clearest cut dimensions of this phenomenon that you
can identify as being motivated by money. The immigrants themselves
depress wages, we see that you're based in Texas, right, Jesse. Yes,
I understand that there's a huge push right now that
(21:02):
Governor Abbott had been pushing to get a ton of
Indian investment over there, and that has changed for a
large swath of the demographics in your own stata as
I understand it. That's that's the sort of thing that
I'm talking about here. That's not something that the public
really weighed in on. That's not something that they were
asked about. That wasn't something that's like, as far as
I know, you weren't asked to consent for that sort
(21:22):
of program to be enacted, but it was done for you,
and it was it was done for particular interests.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Speaking of Bret Bret McDonald at Nerve News. No, no, no, no.
I just find it fascinating because this is something. Part
of the reason I found this so fascinating, and I'm
not certainly not arguing, is I've been I've been talking
lately and thinking a lot lately about how many people
live in circumstances they don't want to live in. They
live in squalor. The job market is bad, it's criminal.
(21:53):
So if people don't want it, why do they have it,
I guess, and this kind of I guess in a
way ties into it in my mind.
Speaker 6 (22:00):
Yeah, No, I agree completely. I would say people like
Jeff Bezos are completely in tune with this as well.
I don't think anyone believes he bought the Washington Post
because he was worried about democracy dying in darkness. I
think we into it widely that he bought it because
he's able to leverage public opinion in a certain way.
He said he's hands off on the editorializing. But do
(22:21):
we know that for certain? I don't, and I think
that cancel culture might be another way to try and
discuss this. So a lot of people probably viewed that
as the mob's pressuring entities to get them fired, like big,
big grassroots campaigns happening on what was Twitter at the time.
But if you kind of zoom out, you'll see that,
like at the start of it, what really happened was
(22:43):
legacy media outlets or large democrat instruments like Media Matters
or the ADL. We're responsible at starting that mob initiation,
and these institutions are themselves funded by economic stakeholders on
the left that have their own interests. They have Trump's
administration right now has has found tons of graft and
(23:04):
corruption in the Green Revolution, the Green New Deal, tons
of money set aside for interest groups that way, and
this is all baked into the cake intentionally. And I'll
say again, just because I think it's I think it's incredible.
It's ten years that it took us to get to
the point where we're actually seeing immigration rates and seeing
ice on the street trying to pick people up. It
(23:25):
took ten years to get there from from when the
whistle was blown by Trump at the start of his
start of his run.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Oh, it's amazing, it took ten years. Okay, let's let's
expand this and go a little bit more historical, because
I saw you also address this when it comes to
things like castles. Everybody knows I'm a history freak. I'm
a castle guy. I want to live in one, although
I'll never be able to afford it. How does that
tie in?
Speaker 6 (23:52):
Okay, Well, so that that was a post about Brownfelft
Castle and it had this beautiful tower keep those folk there,
and the users suggested that things like that weren't, weren't erected,
weren't built for for profit seeking purposes. That that's not
entirely true. They they indirectly were intended for that that
(24:15):
that particular building is relatively new, is built in the
late eighteen eighties, it was in addition to an old
thirteenth century castle. But even even back in medieval times,
when castles were built, they were they were a way
to control taxation. You had rent, you had specific monopolies.
The lord had rights over specific mills and the rights
(24:35):
to the product of the land, and was able to
derive serious revenue from that. To suggest that we were
building these these monumental structures for the sake of monumentality
or ornamentation themselves, it's just it's not it's not entirely
entirely accurate. I would argue that it's far more nuanced.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Okay, so let's actually rewind back to, for instance, the
immigration talk. Is the lesson to be learned from this
that the people themselves have to be more patient, have
to anticipate a lag between their desire and getting what
they want, Or is the lesson that we're powerless, period,
(25:15):
and it's a bunch of billionaires and wealthy interests that
are much more powerful than you or I, and we're
just kind of blowing with the wind.
Speaker 6 (25:22):
Well, I would suggest that it's neither of those. I
would suggest this as a third a third scenario that
we're seeing. I would say that right now there's a
potential for a new establishment, a new status quo to develop,
and a rise from Trumpian policy. What you're seeing now
(25:46):
in regards to how both elements on the left and
right are reacting to these changes in almost almost as
if an immune reaction to it, is their attempt to
try and hold power. I think that if you see
a swap of what is quote unquote the establishment today
(26:06):
with what is a new scent rising establishment, I think
you can see a rapid change in culture. I think
I think that really what we're dealing with right now
is the end the demise of a previous establishment, and
whether or not we are able to take the reins
there is determined by how we handle things right now.
(26:27):
I think that's a bit. I think I'm kind of
losing myself here in the weeds a bit. But if
I'm don't make any sense there.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
No, I don't think. I don't think you are at all.
In fact, it's something we talk about on the show
that there have been times world War One era where
societies were casting off old systems and exploring new systems,
some much better, some much worse obviously when it comes
to things like the Bolsheviks and whatnot. But I could
I could absolutely see in Western civilization that we are
(26:55):
entering one of those times right now where for better
or worse, people are casting off the old system.
Speaker 6 (27:02):
Then I put that right, yeah, exactly, And I think
there's there's multiple facets of that. There's things like the
the tariff arguments that are that are playing out in
the Supreme Court, which have elements of a big business
that are concerned. And then there are there's the internal
struggle at heritage that's happening right now that also factors
(27:25):
into this, where like a small group of people seems
to have a outsized influence on some elements of conservative policy.
And I think there's I think there's a big debate
happening right now about how we are supposed to navigate
that and who's supposed to be involved in that debate
in itself, and all of that stuff will kind of
determine what's going to happen next and what sort of
(27:47):
institutions and what sort of changes we.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
Allow to happen fascinating. Brett, thank you so much man
for that. That was exactly what I want. I think,
A wonderful topic, so fascinating. Please come back soon. Brett MacDonald,
Nerve News, Thank you, my brother Chris. I told you
it was going to be interesting, didn't I didn't I
tell you that. I told Jewish producer Chris before the show,
I like, it's going to be fascinating, and it is. Look,
(28:11):
it's something we've talked about before, how it feels like
for better or worse, and there are some ways it's
gonna be worse. It feels like things are changing and
there's a turning of some kind. That's why we need chalk.
That's why we need natural herbal supplements from chalk, so
we have the energy for all this, so we have
(28:33):
a clarity of the mind that allows us to digest
what we're seeing and make the right choices going forward.
Chalk makes me better at work. It makes me better
at home, whether I am working out, or reading or
or bringing you the world famous Jesse Kelly's show The
Male Vitality Stack. From chalk is probably the best thing
(28:54):
I've ever done in my career. For my career isn't
that weird? But it's just I feel good all the time.

Speaker 10 (29:42):
Did any president under TWEA use that language to impose tariffs?
Speaker 6 (29:47):
Well, yes, President Nixons nineteen seventy one, Join.
Speaker 10 (29:49):
To tarraff VIASA believe that wasn't a tariff. It was
a licensing agreement during wartime. It was a specific thing
on tariff I'm talking about.
Speaker 6 (29:58):
I'm referring to president since nineteen seventy one.
Speaker 10 (30:01):
Oh Resident, I'm sorry, excuse me? Yes, I thought you
meant Lincoln.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
Could be Look, it can be easy to mix those
two up. Michelle Obama still out on her grievance tours.
Speaker 11 (30:12):
I wanted to take advantage of the fact that as
the first lady, Yes you can be smart and educated
and beautiful and sexy and interesting and all those things.
And yes you can be a black woman, a tall
five to eleven black.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
Is she not exhausting? Isn't? Could you imagine how exhausting
it would be to be married by somebody so perpetually aggrieved?
Something is always wrong, always have to prove it to you.
Oh my gosh, Oh, I did want to do this.
(30:49):
And before we get into some other stuff, good day, Jesse.
Love the show. Listen almost every night on WRKO. I
know you appreciate the veterans, and I'm asking for a
big favor. Tonight, my uncle Mike Yazzi celebrates his one
hundred and third birthday. He fought in World War Two,
(31:11):
served in the Ghost Army in Italy. Gosh, that's so
cool and is as lucid as you and me. He
is the oldest of seven boys, and until last year
when I lost my dad, he is the last man standing.
I called my uncle today to wish him a happy
birthday and had a wonderful conversation. I would be forever
(31:33):
grateful if you could mention him on the show tonight
so I can record and share with him on my
next visit. I know you're a student of history. I
have to tell you I have had the fortune of
hearing first hand him recount the time spent in Italy
during the war. Truly a great man, father, uncle, and
part of what makes America the greatest nation on earth.
(31:57):
Happy freaking birthday. These things touch me. We get a
lot of birthday requests and can you give me a
happy anniversary and stuff like that, but we just don't
have many World War Two veterans left. It's the way
time works. You gotta live to one hundred and three.
It'll be still around. It's just the way time works.
(32:17):
And man, ghost, Army and Italy, just what a freaking life.
Happy birthday, Mike, Happy happy birthday all right. Speaking of which,
the Gerald R. Ford it's a huge aircraft carrier. It's
our most modern aircraft carrier. It heads to the Caribbean.
(32:38):
I warned you about this last week. It left the
Eastern Hemisphere and is moving into the Yeah, left the Eastern,
moving into the Western. I don't know why my mind's
not working, And there's just East and West. Anyway, this
Venezuela stuff is interesting. It is interesting because Trump wants
(32:59):
regime change into Venezuela. That's obvious. It's obvious. He takes
this problem seriously enough to move large quantities of the
United States Navy around Venezuela were nuking drug votes. All
this is fine, but Trump also saw what happened in
the elections last night, and you hear him already talking
(33:21):
about getting legislation passed, he voicing concern about the midterms.
Trump is also aware that the American people who put
him into office, they may not cry if the Venezuelan
leader gets overturned. Nobody will who cares about that dirt ball.
But the American people who put him into office are
(33:42):
not crying out for regime change in Venezuela. They're crying
out for relief in the grocery store. They're crying out
for a jobs market where over fifteen percent of the
college graduates are unemployed. That's where we are right now,
over five zero or fifty percent. Now, you can say
(34:02):
those are separate issues, and I would agree with you.
I totally agree. But he has got to focus domestically
and get this job's market rolling in whatever way he can,
and I would assume, knowing Trump, that's that's his motivation
for the.
Speaker 9 (34:18):
Seifer Republicans to do what they have to do, and
that's terminate the filibuster. It's the only way you can
do it.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
And if you don't terminate, I assume his motivation for
that is, no, we're gonna get this passed, and this
pass and this past for the economy. All right, be
careful with that, and be careful with that dog food
you give your dog. Dog food's really really bad. Dog
food is poison essentially. You know how they say fast
foods poison. I think it's delicious, but it probably is.
(34:47):
Dog food is the same thing. You know why it's
all brown. They roast that stuff at unbelievably high temperatures
at the factory because they don't want it to go
bad on the shelf. That's why you get buy fifty
pound bags of the stuff at the pet store. Doesn't
go bad. But why doesn't it go bad because there's
(35:08):
nothing in it. They cooked it all out. Sprinkle roughgreens
on the dog's food so your dog can finally have
digestive enzymes and omega oils and vitamins and middle live
nutrients and your dog will love it and you will
have Look if you have a sluggish dog, they'll be awake.
A better coat, better breath, a better dog, healthier dog.

And now here's a headline. You know the thing headlines
we didn't get to. Fired ISU teaching assistant who flipped
(35:56):
TPUSA table is arrested again for a led threats against Trump.
I brought this up again to remind you that that's
where you're sending your eighteen year old off to college,
so that human being can destroy the mind and soul
you took time giving her. Colleges are teaching gen Z
(36:17):
to love socialism again. Let me go ahead and free.
That's free beacon or campus or formed, by the way,
let me go ahead and put an exclamation point on
the point I just made. Don't send your baby girl
to college without a whole lot of thought. There after
her Trump at the Senate breakfast calls to nuke the filibuster.
This is very, very dangerous ground we should tread carefully.
(36:41):
You send me your emails for tomorrow. We'll have fun,
all right, that's all.
This is a Jesse Kelly Show. It is the Jesse
Kelly Show. Final hour of The Jesse Kelly Show on
a wonderful Wednesday, I'll hope day.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
As we turned through everything, So we're gonna do some
sound bites here. We're gonna talk about a couple of
things James Comys. We're about to address, well, big fun
of Michelle Obama, some more talk about Katanji Brown Jackson
embarrassing herself, your emails, and so much more coming up
in the final hour. So, James Comy, he's in some
(00:44):
legal trouble. I have never and I will never over
promise on these things.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
I don't know how much legal trouble because of the
jurisdiction he's going to be tried in. All it takes
is one Communist on that jury and they're gonna believe
everything James Comy did was justified. But we forget why
they did some of the things they did. In twenty
twenty sixteen, we forget remember Barack Obama got elected in
(01:15):
two thousand and eight. In twenty sixteen, Donald Trump was
challenging Hillary Clinton. It's easy to forget, or maybe you're
new to politics since then, it's easy to forget that
Hillary Clinton was supposed to win that election. Hindsight's twenty twenty.
Now everybody, every poll showed it. Everybody this side of
(01:38):
Selina Zito thought that Hillary Clinton was going to win
that election. Barack Obama launched the operation he launched because
he assumed he was never going to get caught. The
Obama they launched the operation. They launched because they thought, well,
(02:00):
who's going to catch us the next Democrat? And then
when Donald Trump won the election, they freaked out and
used that lag period to launch another operation to try
to handicap Donald Trump. All very evil, all very nefarious.
But I wanted to rewind to this little tidbit. As
(02:21):
Comy's notes are coming out, Remember what James Comy did
a head of the as head of the FBI. It's
just unbelievable. He got a friend to leak information to
the media. You're not allowed to do that. That's against
the law. You cannot meet with your friends as head
of the FBI and say hey, Bob, can you leak
this to the New York Times? That you can't do that.
(02:45):
But this is one of the things, one of the
notes that came out. I'm not going to go through
all the details on it, this other stuff, but quote,
someday they will figure it out. My decision will be one.
A president elect Clinton will be very grateful for. That's
(03:06):
what Comy wrote his buddy a month before the twenty
sixteen election. Remember that elections are in November. In October
of twenty sixteen, quote, my decision will be won. A
president elect Clinton will be very grateful for. These people
(03:29):
all operated as if they would always have power. That's
how they thought. It's what they thought. I will always
be in power. I'm going to be here forever, so
I can do whatever I want and I want to.
I just wanted to say this to you about Comy,
(03:50):
and I wanted to play you a couple things, just
to remind you what they did in the Biden administration,
all those evils pales in comparison to what they'll do again.
The only lesson the communists in this country learned was
they didn't do enough evil. They didn't hit us hard enough.
(04:12):
They didn't arrest enough of us that that's the only
lesson they learned. Here's James Comy.
Speaker 3 (04:18):
I know Republicans these days aren't big in thinking about
principle or precedent. They're going to be deeply sorry that
that disappears, because someday there will be a democratic president
and there'll be investigations of Republican office holders.
Speaker 1 (04:32):
That was James Comy, here was Derek Holder.
Speaker 4 (04:35):
I think, you know the reality is it pains me
to say this. I think the Supreme Court is a
broken institution and it's something that has to be I
think a part of the national conversation in twenty six
and in twenty eight what are we going to do
about the Supreme Court? And I think that we have
to think about again talking about the acquisition and the
use of power if there is a democratic trifecta in
(04:58):
twenty twenty eight, and I think the possibility of that
is is pretty good. Supreme Court reform is something that
has to be considered. Term limits, I think at a minimum,
potentially expanding the court is something I think that also
should be should be considered.
Speaker 1 (05:13):
Need any more motivation for the midterms, What are these
people going to do when they're back in power. I
don't know. Let's go to the crowd of the view.
Speaker 4 (05:21):
I think that it should be in jail.
Speaker 5 (05:23):
Frankly and personally personally, if they.
Speaker 1 (05:27):
Would be doing. I think Trump should be in jail
is an applause line. What lessons did these people learn?
Speaker 5 (05:35):
Take away from me that I don't think enough people
are talking about is what happened in California with Prop fifty.
Speaker 6 (05:39):
Yeah we've come to that, yeah comment yea.
Speaker 5 (05:42):
That for me was a huge, huge takeaway because that
is the roadmap for how Democrats become the opposition party.
You meet energy with energy. When they go low, you
go lower.
Speaker 1 (05:56):
California set to spend twenty eight times more on health
benefits for illegal aliens than state police funding twenty eight times.
Why they know where their bread's buttery?
Speaker 7 (06:11):
Speak of Yemeni bodega owners and Mexican ubuelas, Senegalese taxi
drivers and neosbeck nurses, Trinidadian line cooks, and Ethiopian aunties. Yes, aunties.
Speaker 1 (06:33):
Would you like to meet the new mayor of Saint Paul, Minnesota?
You know Minneapolis, Saint Paul, They're the twin cities. Would
you like to meet the new mayor of Minneapolis or
of Saint Paul. Oh good, Let me introduce her to you.
Speaker 8 (06:45):
My father, as the one processing the paperwork, put my
grandmother down as his mother and so I am illegal
in this country. My parents are illegal here in this country.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
I'm not making that up. That's the new mayor of
Saint Paul, Minnesota. That's a little flashback that was from June,
but that's the new mayor of Saint Paul, Minnesota. Alex
Soros posts a photo with Mam Donnie after his victory.
George Soros, Alex Soros's father, has expressed multiple times that
(07:24):
he thinks America is an evil place that should be
burned to the ground. Now, the Soro's fortune, it's used
to fund Democrats all across the United States of America.
So I again want to reinforce that. One year from now.
One year from now, we're going to have the midterms.
(07:47):
What are we going to do to ensure Democrats do
not take the House or potentially the House and the
Senate before the or during the midterms twenty twenty six,
and the tide's going to be against us. It is traditionally,
you know exactly how it goes. The party in power
(08:07):
loses all this seats in the midterms. Now we have
this California Prop fifty, What are we going to do
to make sure that doesn't happen. Are these people going
to control the house? Being undocumented in the United States
is not a crime, and I think it's very important
that all of our listeners understand that, yes, it is,
(08:29):
or we could end up like Germany. German cities cancel
Christmas markets over Islamis terrorism concerns. Huh, hey, Chris, would
you do me a favorite you might need a few minutes.
Would you look up how many Christmas markets in Poland
(08:50):
have been canceled this year over Islamis terrorist concerns? Would
could you look that up? Are you not getting anything? Nothing?
Huh keep looking. I'm sure it's got to be in
there somewhere. You know the difference. Poland minded the imports.
Germany did not. Now, go to a Christmas market in
(09:14):
Germany this year, you may get mowed down. Go to
a Christmas market in Poland, you may have a little
too much hot chocolate and get a sword tummy. That's
what happens when you don't mind the imports. Berger whisper,
I keep hearing that Trump wants the Senate to nuke
the filibuster and worthless. Thune said he doesn't have the votes.
(09:35):
Can you explain explain, like I'm fred what that means.
I thought the filibuster was just a stall tactic. So okay,
So Trump did he talked about this today.
Speaker 9 (09:46):
Here he was sifer Republicans to do what they have
to do, and that's terminate the filibuster. It's the only
way you can do it. And if you don't terminate
the filibuster, you'll be in bad shape. We won't pass
any legislation. There'll be no legislation pass for three and
a quarter. We have three and a quarter years, so
such a long time. But when they can't do an extension,
and John, I think they've done an extension every single
(10:08):
time they've ever been asked forever. This is the first
time they haven't done an extension. Extensions are supposed to
be easy. But if they won't do an extension, they
won't do any bill, even a simple bill.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Right. What's happening? This is something Trump's been hot on
for three four days now. He has come out publicly
and said, nuke the philibuster. What's he talking about? Next time?
Speaker 6 (10:32):
It's the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 1 (10:34):
It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful Wednesday.
Remember tomorrow's ask doctor Jesse Friday. You need to get
your questions emailed in right now to Jesse at Jesse
kellyshow dot com. That's always a good time. I wanted
to address this one because the filibuster thing keeps coming up,
philibuster this and philibuster.
Speaker 9 (10:54):
That, and it's time for Republicans to do what they
have to do, and that's terminate the filibuster. It's the
only way you can do. And if you don't terminate
the filibuster, you'll be in bad shape. We won't pass
any legislation. There'll be no legislation passed for three in
a quarter. We have three and a quarter years, so
it's a long time. But when they can't do an extension,
and John, I think they've done an extension every single
(11:16):
time they've ever been asked forever. This is the first
time they haven't done an extension. Extensions.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Let me explain. Let me explain Trump's motivation for this.
Democrats have shown Trump during this shutdown. They have shown
him that it's impossible to work with them. In fact,
they have shown him that they'll just torch the entire
country in order to get him. He really knew that anyway,
(11:45):
But they've really, really proven it, we'll just shut down
the government for a month. So that's what they've shown him,
all right. So there's that. Then there's this Donald Trump,
like all presidents, wants to do things. And it's perfectly natural.
You if you were ever given the oval office, if
(12:06):
I can make you president tomorrow, you would want to
do things right. You would want to do things, wouldn't
you want? And you probably have your own idea depending
on your motivations. You would you would have a piece
of legislation of some kind. Maybe it's a border wall,
but whatever, term whatever, you would have something something you
(12:28):
think is critically important, and you would want to get
it done right. Now. Picture this, I hand you the
White House. You only have one term. You are ten
months into your first term. You are looking out over
the house in the Senate. You're looking at our mid
(12:48):
term prospects might not go well, probably won't for us,
and you're saying to yourself, I have a year. I
have one year to pass, but I don't know what
piece of legislation or multiple pieces Donald Trump is hot on.
But you have one year to pass a piece of legislation,
(13:12):
and if you don't in that year, you will not
pass one for your entire four years as president of
the United States of America. I'm not saying you would
immediately come out and say nuke the filibuster. That's not
what I'm saying. But you would think about it, wouldn't you.
Wouldn't you? Donald Trump is thinking about it. Donald Trump
(13:33):
only has three more years left as President of the
United States of America and then he's done in politics.
That's it. That's two terms as president. I'm sure he'll
still do rallies here and this, and I mean, he's
Donald Trump. He's not going to hide in the shadows.
No more Oval Office, no more President, no more mister President,
no more Air Force one. It's all gone three years.
(13:56):
Donald Trump is a doer anyway, construt duction guy, real
estate guy, wants to build things once to get things done.
So in Trump's mind, in order to do that, we
have to nuke the filibuster. What does that mean right now?
In order to pass a law, you have to get
(14:17):
sixty votes in the Senate. There are one hundred senators.
You have to get sixty votes in the Senate in
order to get a law passed. Why is the government
shut down because we can't get sixty votes. It would
require multiple Democrats to participate. Sixty votes is your need?
(14:38):
So Donald Trump's looking at it and says to himself, well,
let's get rid of that requirement. Now, why hasn't this
been done? Why don't they want to do this? But
here's just a little recent history on it. When Harry
Reid was the Senate majority leader, the Republicans were throwing
(15:00):
up roadblocks to things like judges, and Harry Reid came
out and said, well, we can't have this. Barack Obama's
trying to install his communists everywhere. You know what, no
more Republican votes. I don't want to hear this sixty
vote nothing. And Mitch McConnell, one of the few great
things he's ever done, stepped up and said, I'd be
very careful, Harry Reid, because if you do this, we're
(15:23):
going to do this back to you. Just know that
we're going to do it back to you. So if
you do it, you get your judges, you better enjoy them.
We're going to do it back to you. Harry Reid,
scumbag that he is, said I don't care he did it.
Republicans took the Senate and gave it to him, good
(15:44):
and hard, just like it was promised, Just like it
was promised. The lesson both parties really learned from that
was if you do this, if you take this step,
are you prepared for what comes next? Are you prepared
(16:07):
for what happens when they don't need sixty votes anymore?
Are you ready for it? I don't think we're ready
for it. And here's why. It's not really because of
what they will do. That's not my thinking. I don't
think we're ready for it because tell me the piece
(16:27):
of legislation that's going to needcap communism in this country.
Does it exist? I've not seen it. You can't do
this for a tax cut or something. If we're talking
about passing a piece of legislation that destroys Democrat power
in America, all right now, I'm listening. If we're talking
about passing just legislation Donald Trump wants, that's a very
(16:51):
very bad idea, very very bad idea. Getting some gold
is a very good idea. Getting it in your retirement,
getting it in your four oh one k maybe the
best idea ever. That's one of those ideas that can
really save a large portion of your life. Do you
(17:12):
want to go back to work when you're seventy five
because the stock market popped and now you're busted. Let
gold Cod weave some gold or silver into your retirement account.
Let them get you a twenty twenty five gold and
silver kit so you can read about this. It's not magic,
it's not that at all. Precious metals whold value that
(17:36):
they've had value since long before America existed. They will
have value long after America is gone. That's called reliability.
Call them eight five five eight one seven gold or
visit Jesse Likes goold dot Com. Let gold Code take
care of you. We'll be back.
Speaker 4 (17:59):
You're listening to the love this one.
Speaker 6 (18:02):
It's a scream baby the Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
It is The Jesse Kelly Show on a fantastic Wednesday.
So my next guest somebody I know, Brett McDonald. He
is the founder of Nerve News. He's been talking about
a subject that completely fascinates me. I'd never really thought
about it in this way. I find it fascinating. I'm
(18:25):
sure you will as well. So I'm gonna read his
direct quote one of them before I toss the floor
to him. Quote. Cultural advancements are the product of economic
surplus expressed through particular business methodology. What in the world
does that mean? I went to community college. I went
(18:46):
to community college, Brett.
Speaker 6 (18:48):
What are you talking about, hey, Jesse, thanks for having me,
of course. Well, so Andrew Breitbart famously identified culture as
upstream from politics. I think everyone's heard this, and he
was right. But I think that people have a tendency
to view culture as a mirror when in reality it
kind of finds itself driven by forces upstream of itself,
(19:09):
and I think those forces are primarily economic. And none
of this is to say that you don't have any
particular leverage in your culture. It's more to say that
the American people daily meet with this untold level of
friction that inorganically slows their cultural transitions down and prevents
the public from responding in a timely manner to a
known threat like immigration, or like drag Queen Story Hour
(19:33):
or something of that nature. During Trump's first run at office,
there was a lot of talk about shifting the Overton window.
And you probably know this as like the range of
policies that the public will receive and view as acceptable
at any one time. And I think a lot of
people found that it was not so easy to do.
It's like, look, Trump came down the escalator in twenty fifteen.
(19:55):
He told us that illegal immigrants were bringing crime, drugs,
and rape across our border. There was matt the institutional outcry,
it had his remarks, but the public elected him anyway,
and then what happened. It took us a decade to
get the sort of leverage necessary to do anything about it.
And why that might be, I would suggest, is a
force that supersedes culture in many times, and I think
(20:17):
it's very directed from the top down.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Okay, we're going to stay focused on this because this
is something that everybody has heard me scream from the
top of my lungs about all the time. How we
have to deport fifty million people. We have to get
the foreigners out of this country. So how does how
does that work? You say it comes from the top down.
Who's the top what's the motivation? So it's just money?
Speaker 6 (20:41):
Well, yeah, I would I would say in a lot
of cases, it is money. I think immigration is one
of the clearest cut dimensions of this phenomenon that you
can identify as being motivated by money. The immigrants themselves
depress wages, we see that you're based in Texas, right, Jesse. Yes,
I understand that there's a huge push right now that
(21:02):
Governor Abbott had been pushing to get a ton of
Indian investment over there, and that has changed for a
large swath of the demographics in your own stata as
I understand it. That's that's the sort of thing that
I'm talking about here. That's not something that the public
really weighed in on. That's not something that they were
asked about. That wasn't something that's like, as far as
I know, you weren't asked to consent for that sort
(21:22):
of program to be enacted, but it was done for you,
and it was it was done for particular interests.
Speaker 1 (21:29):
Speaking of Bret Bret McDonald at Nerve News. No, no, no, no.
I just find it fascinating because this is something. Part
of the reason I found this so fascinating, and I'm
not certainly not arguing, is I've been I've been talking
lately and thinking a lot lately about how many people
live in circumstances they don't want to live in. They
live in squalor. The job market is bad, it's criminal.
(21:53):
So if people don't want it, why do they have it,
I guess, and this kind of I guess in a
way ties into it in my mind.
Speaker 6 (22:00):
Yeah, No, I agree completely. I would say people like
Jeff Bezos are completely in tune with this as well.
I don't think anyone believes he bought the Washington Post
because he was worried about democracy dying in darkness. I
think we into it widely that he bought it because
he's able to leverage public opinion in a certain way.
He said he's hands off on the editorializing. But do
(22:21):
we know that for certain? I don't, and I think
that cancel culture might be another way to try and
discuss this. So a lot of people probably viewed that
as the mob's pressuring entities to get them fired, like big,
big grassroots campaigns happening on what was Twitter at the time.
But if you kind of zoom out, you'll see that,
like at the start of it, what really happened was
(22:43):
legacy media outlets or large democrat instruments like Media Matters
or the ADL. We're responsible at starting that mob initiation,
and these institutions are themselves funded by economic stakeholders on
the left that have their own interests. They have Trump's
administration right now has has found tons of graft and
(23:04):
corruption in the Green Revolution, the Green New Deal, tons
of money set aside for interest groups that way, and
this is all baked into the cake intentionally. And I'll
say again, just because I think it's I think it's incredible.
It's ten years that it took us to get to
the point where we're actually seeing immigration rates and seeing
ice on the street trying to pick people up. It
(23:25):
took ten years to get there from from when the
whistle was blown by Trump at the start of his
start of his run.
Speaker 1 (23:32):
Oh, it's amazing, it took ten years. Okay, let's let's
expand this and go a little bit more historical, because
I saw you also address this when it comes to
things like castles. Everybody knows I'm a history freak. I'm
a castle guy. I want to live in one, although
I'll never be able to afford it. How does that
tie in?
Speaker 6 (23:52):
Okay, Well, so that that was a post about Brownfelft
Castle and it had this beautiful tower keep those folk there,
and the users suggested that things like that weren't, weren't erected,
weren't built for for profit seeking purposes. That that's not
entirely true. They they indirectly were intended for that that
(24:15):
that particular building is relatively new, is built in the
late eighteen eighties, it was in addition to an old
thirteenth century castle. But even even back in medieval times,
when castles were built, they were they were a way
to control taxation. You had rent, you had specific monopolies.
The lord had rights over specific mills and the rights
(24:35):
to the product of the land, and was able to
derive serious revenue from that. To suggest that we were
building these these monumental structures for the sake of monumentality
or ornamentation themselves, it's just it's not it's not entirely
entirely accurate. I would argue that it's far more nuanced.
Speaker 1 (24:54):
Okay, so let's actually rewind back to, for instance, the
immigration talk. Is the lesson to be learned from this
that the people themselves have to be more patient, have
to anticipate a lag between their desire and getting what
they want, Or is the lesson that we're powerless, period,
(25:15):
and it's a bunch of billionaires and wealthy interests that
are much more powerful than you or I, and we're
just kind of blowing with the wind.
Speaker 6 (25:22):
Well, I would suggest that it's neither of those. I
would suggest this as a third a third scenario that
we're seeing. I would say that right now there's a
potential for a new establishment, a new status quo to develop,
and a rise from Trumpian policy. What you're seeing now
(25:46):
in regards to how both elements on the left and
right are reacting to these changes in almost almost as
if an immune reaction to it, is their attempt to
try and hold power. I think that if you see
a swap of what is quote unquote the establishment today
(26:06):
with what is a new scent rising establishment, I think
you can see a rapid change in culture. I think
I think that really what we're dealing with right now
is the end the demise of a previous establishment, and
whether or not we are able to take the reins
there is determined by how we handle things right now.
(26:27):
I think that's a bit. I think I'm kind of
losing myself here in the weeds a bit. But if
I'm don't make any sense there.
Speaker 1 (26:33):
No, I don't think. I don't think you are at all.
In fact, it's something we talk about on the show
that there have been times world War One era where
societies were casting off old systems and exploring new systems,
some much better, some much worse obviously when it comes
to things like the Bolsheviks and whatnot. But I could
I could absolutely see in Western civilization that we are
(26:55):
entering one of those times right now where for better
or worse, people are casting off the old system.
Speaker 6 (27:02):
Then I put that right, yeah, exactly, And I think
there's there's multiple facets of that. There's things like the
the tariff arguments that are that are playing out in
the Supreme Court, which have elements of a big business
that are concerned. And then there are there's the internal
struggle at heritage that's happening right now that also factors
(27:25):
into this, where like a small group of people seems
to have a outsized influence on some elements of conservative policy.
And I think there's I think there's a big debate
happening right now about how we are supposed to navigate
that and who's supposed to be involved in that debate
in itself, and all of that stuff will kind of
determine what's going to happen next and what sort of
(27:47):
institutions and what sort of changes we.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
Allow to happen fascinating. Brett, thank you so much man
for that. That was exactly what I want. I think,
A wonderful topic, so fascinating. Please come back soon. Brett MacDonald,
Nerve News, Thank you, my brother Chris. I told you
it was going to be interesting, didn't I didn't I
tell you that. I told Jewish producer Chris before the show,
I like, it's going to be fascinating, and it is. Look,
(28:11):
it's something we've talked about before, how it feels like
for better or worse, and there are some ways it's
gonna be worse. It feels like things are changing and
there's a turning of some kind. That's why we need chalk.
That's why we need natural herbal supplements from chalk, so
we have the energy for all this, so we have

what we're seeing and make the right choices going forward.

Speaker 10 (29:42):
Did any president under TWEA use that language to impose tariffs?
Speaker 6 (29:47):
Well, yes, President Nixons nineteen seventy one, Join.
Speaker 10 (29:49):
To tarraff VIASA believe that wasn't a tariff. It was
a licensing agreement during wartime. It was a specific thing
on tariff I'm talking about.
Speaker 6 (29:58):
I'm referring to president since nineteen seventy one.
Speaker 10 (30:01):
Oh Resident, I'm sorry, excuse me? Yes, I thought you
meant Lincoln.
Speaker 1 (30:05):
Could be Look, it can be easy to mix those
two up. Michelle Obama still out on her grievance tours.
Speaker 11 (30:12):
I wanted to take advantage of the fact that as
the first lady, Yes you can be smart and educated
and beautiful and sexy and interesting and all those things.
And yes you can be a black woman, a tall
five to eleven black.
Speaker 1 (30:29):
Is she not exhausting? Isn't? Could you imagine how exhausting
it would be to be married by somebody so perpetually aggrieved?
Something is always wrong, always have to prove it to you.
Oh my gosh, Oh, I did want to do this.
(30:49):
And before we get into some other stuff, good day, Jesse.
Love the show. Listen almost every night on WRKO. I
know you appreciate the veterans, and I'm asking for a
big favor. Tonight, my uncle Mike Yazzi celebrates his one
hundred and third birthday. He fought in World War Two,
(31:11):
served in the Ghost Army in Italy. Gosh, that's so
cool and is as lucid as you and me. He
is the oldest of seven boys, and until last year
when I lost my dad, he is the last man standing.
I called my uncle today to wish him a happy
birthday and had a wonderful conversation. I would be forever
(31:33):
grateful if you could mention him on the show tonight
so I can record and share with him on my
next visit. I know you're a student of history. I
have to tell you I have had the fortune of
hearing first hand him recount the time spent in Italy
during the war. Truly a great man, father, uncle, and
part of what makes America the greatest nation on earth.
(31:57):
Happy freaking birthday. These things touch me. We get a
lot of birthday requests and can you give me a
happy anniversary and stuff like that, but we just don't
have many World War Two veterans left. It's the way
time works. You gotta live to one hundred and three.
It'll be still around. It's just the way time works.
(32:17):
And man, ghost, Army and Italy, just what a freaking life.
Happy birthday, Mike, Happy happy birthday all right. Speaking of which,
the Gerald R. Ford it's a huge aircraft carrier. It's
our most modern aircraft carrier. It heads to the Caribbean.
(32:38):
I warned you about this last week. It left the
Eastern Hemisphere and is moving into the Yeah, left the Eastern,
moving into the Western. I don't know why my mind's
not working, And there's just East and West. Anyway, this
Venezuela stuff is interesting. It is interesting because Trump wants
(32:59):
regime change into Venezuela. That's obvious. It's obvious. He takes
this problem seriously enough to move large quantities of the
United States Navy around Venezuela were nuking drug votes. All
this is fine, but Trump also saw what happened in
the elections last night, and you hear him already talking
(33:21):
about getting legislation passed, he voicing concern about the midterms.
Trump is also aware that the American people who put
him into office, they may not cry if the Venezuelan
leader gets overturned. Nobody will who cares about that dirt ball.
But the American people who put him into office are
(33:42):
not crying out for regime change in Venezuela. They're crying
out for relief in the grocery store. They're crying out
for a jobs market where over fifteen percent of the
college graduates are unemployed. That's where we are right now,
over five zero or fifty percent. Now, you can say
(34:02):
those are separate issues, and I would agree with you.
I totally agree. But he has got to focus domestically
and get this job's market rolling in whatever way he can,
and I would assume, knowing Trump, that's that's his motivation
for the.
Speaker 9 (34:18):
Seifer Republicans to do what they have to do, and
that's terminate the filibuster. It's the only way you can
do it.
Speaker 1 (34:24):
And if you don't terminate, I assume his motivation for
that is, no, we're gonna get this passed, and this
pass and this past for the economy. All right, be
careful with that, and be careful with that dog food
you give your dog. Dog food's really really bad. Dog
food is poison essentially. You know how they say fast
foods poison. I think it's delicious, but it probably is.
(34:47):
Dog food is the same thing. You know why it's
all brown. They roast that stuff at unbelievably high temperatures
at the factory because they don't want it to go
bad on the shelf. That's why you get buy fifty
pound bags of the stuff at the pet store. Doesn't
go bad. But why doesn't it go bad because there's
(35:08):
nothing in it. They cooked it all out. Sprinkle roughgreens
on the dog's food so your dog can finally have
digestive enzymes and omega oils and vitamins and middle live
nutrients and your dog will love it and you will
have Look if you have a sluggish dog, they'll be awake.
A better coat, better breath, a better dog, healthier dog.

And now here's a headline. You know the thing headlines
we didn't get to. Fired ISU teaching assistant who flipped
(35:56):
TPUSA table is arrested again for a led threats against Trump.
I brought this up again to remind you that that's
where you're sending your eighteen year old off to college,
so that human being can destroy the mind and soul
you took time giving her. Colleges are teaching gen Z
(36:17):
to love socialism again. Let me go ahead and free.
That's free beacon or campus or formed, by the way,
let me go ahead and put an exclamation point on
the point I just made. Don't send your baby girl
to college without a whole lot of thought. There after
her Trump at the Senate breakfast calls to nuke the filibuster.
This is very, very dangerous ground we should tread carefully.
(36:41):
You send me your emails for tomorrow. We'll have fun,
all right, that's all.
