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 magnificent Wednesday. Do not forget. You can email the
show Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com. So we are Uh.
I'll get back to some emails in a few in
(00:32):
a few minutes, but I have I have a couple
of things on my mind. First of all, I've been
thinking a lot about grilled cheese sandwiches lately. It's been dumped.
What Chris, what do you mean? Why can you people
not eat girl cheese sandwiches? You can velveta little velveta,
maybe a little prova. What what it's too rich? It
(00:55):
can be You can over velveta a sandwich. You can
use regular craft slices. If you want to be fancy pants,
you can add a couple different chatter. Uh what's that?
One starts with a G? I can ever said? Ob
usually asked this, gre are Yeah, that's what I was
trying to say, gre Air provolone. I told you I
went to the Texas State Fair at one time. Highly
(01:17):
recommend if you've never gone, and they're famous for all
the deep fried foods. It's very healthy place. RFK Junior
would lose his mine there the best thing there, and
I had it all right. I even tried the weird
stuff deep fried butter. It was way too much, way
too much. Deep fried Oreos and deep fried twinkies and
deep fried there. And they added deep fried pizza. They
(01:37):
deep fried sliced pizza. The best thing I ate at
the Texas State Fair by a mile was a deep
fried grilled cheese sandwich. Maybe it doesn't sound good, I'm
telling you what. It was amazing. What, Chris, what can
we do the show from there? It's in a month.
(02:00):
I mean, I guess maybe do you want to do
the show from there? Well, I don't want to do
it outside. You can't do it outside because then the
show sounds like crap for everybody. Maybe we could go
up there, or it's up by Dallas. Right, it's up
by Dallas. We can go up there. Sure, I want
to eat some girl cheese sandwiches. That's been on my mind.
You know what else has been on my mind? The
(02:22):
video that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth put out earlier today.
It's a little long. I might cut it off, but
I'm gonna let it play, and I just I want
you to take this in. It's been such a heavy
day that I almost thought about just pushing this until tomorrow,
but I wanted to talk about it. I am floored.
(02:44):
I can't stop thinking about it. Here he was.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Last month, the Department of Defense was made aware of
an Obama Biden era legacy program called Digital Escorts. For
nearly a decade, Microsoft has used Chinese coders remotely supervised
by contractors to support sensitive DoD cloud systems. Program was
designed to comply with contracting rules, but it exposed the
(03:09):
Department to unacceptable risk. I mean, if you're thinking America
first and common sense, this doesn't.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Pass either of those tests.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
So I initiated an immediate review of this vulnerability, and
I want to report our initial findings. So, the use
of Chinese nationals to service Department of Defense cloud environments,
it's over. We've issued a formal letter of concern to
Microsoft documenting this breach of trust, and we're requiring a
third party audit of Microsoft's Digital Escort program, including the code.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
And so, first of all, I want to make something clear,
crystal clear. The cloud. Have you ever heard about this?
The cloud it's stored on the cloud. We have this
on the cloud. This in the cloud. That you've heard
of this concept, I'm assuming it's not in the clouds.
(04:02):
The cloud means it's stored on someone else's computer. That's
what it means. There's no actual cloud in the sky
that has your iPhone pictures. They're kept on someone else's computer.
Barack Obama and Joe Biden, they gave our defense secrets
(04:24):
to the Chinese on purpose. Let's just remember. Let's remember
Joe Biden's ties to China, his family's ties to China.
It was something we talked about all the time when
he was president, and he would do these baffling things,
(04:46):
like when they allowed the Chinese spy balloon to traverse
the entire country, hovering over doing figure eights over our
military bases, obviously collecting information. They allowed it to go
from the Pacific to the Atlantic before they shot it down.
They could have taken it out of the sky anytime.
They didn't order it. Just let them do it, now, Chris,
(05:09):
to me a favor. Play that video again. Just think
about the Biden administration, Joe Biden, his family's ties to China.
Think about all the critically important information. The Department of
Defense has now listen to this again.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Last month, the Department of Defense was made aware of
an Obama Biden era legacy program called Digital Escorts. For
nearly a decade, Microsoft has used Chinese coders remotely supervised
by US contractors to support sensitive DoD cloud systems. Program
was designed to comply with contracting rules, but it exposed
(05:48):
the Department to unacceptable risk. I mean, if you're thinking
America first and common sense.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
We farmed out to Microsoft, who farmed out to Chinese nationals,
and it wasn't like we didn't know it. The Chinese
nationals reported to us how much stuff did they take
from there? How much stuff did they put in to there.
(06:16):
We've talked before many times, including tonight, about how China
is a bribery society. It's what they do from rare
earth minerals, government officials. They're a bribery society. You show
up with a sack of cash, you buy what you want. Remember,
we talked with BK just a couple of minutes ago.
(06:38):
We talked with BK about the US Navy sailor going
to prison, possibly for life, for twelve Grand has handed
him twelve thousand dollars. They bribe people, that's what they do.
How many American politicians do you believe are currently bribed
by China? And look, let's politicians aside. How many people
(07:03):
with the Pentagon have Chinese money in their bank account?
How many people with the FBI, CIA, NSA, US Army,
US Marines, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard. You know, we
caught one, you know how it goes. If you caught one,
(07:25):
there are how many others out there who haven't been caught.
It's one of those uncomfortable things about crime that cops
will tell you, Yeah, it's great, you got one tried, convicted,
but they don't catch even close to half. You get
away with it. How much of our government has been
(07:46):
bought by communists China? Remember Eric Swalwell? I know, because
Democrats were running things, they managed to kind of sweep
that whole thing under the rug. Eric Swalwell was on
the House Intelligence Committee. I've twet you this before. If
you go to the Hill, if you go to Capitol Hill,
you walk through the congressional buildings, you'll see various meeting
(08:08):
rooms where the various committees meet, and there's not really
security there don't get wrong, there's cops and stuff like that,
but it's just a door. You open it up, it's
just a conference room or like what are the places
you see on television where they're interviewing people. It's just
a little rooms all over the place, except for one
the House Intelligence Committee, because they deal with national security secrets.
(08:32):
You will know it when you see it, and you
will not be popping your head in. I promise you
that it is secured to the max. You look at
it and you think, oh my gosh, what is that
the CIA. It's James Bond in there. That's the secret
stuff they discuss. Eric Swolwell got taken in by a
(08:52):
Chinese spy. How often has this happened? How much of
our country has been sold to China on purpose? Over
and over and over again. We keep running into China
this and China that, and I'll continue to say, I
can't believe they're not broke, given how many people ak
(09:14):
around the world they're bribing. I don't know where all
the money's coming from, but apparently China always finds some
more of it. Then again, if it only costs twelve
thousand dollars from a US Navy sailor maybe we're pretty cheap.
That is our reputation, after all, pretty freaking cheap. I mean, imagine,
imagine how cheap rask it must go trying.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
To militarize our society, intimidate its political opponents. The whole
idea of picking cities based on their partisan leadership is absurd.
I mean, there are lots of Republican cities in town
struggling with crime. Everybody is across the country always, Crime
has always been part of our history. And yet crime
(09:53):
is down in DC, for example, it's at a thirty
year low. It's down in Baltimore, it's in Chicago.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Yeah, sure, dude. I appreciate your history comments, respect your
youthful attitude about communism. Why don't you ever mention Dresden
or the atrocities on Catholics. You seem to be bought
and paid for when you speak of anything after World
War Two? All due respect, you're getting to be like
(10:22):
Vince's the Princess? Who is that? Chris? Grow a pair.
These people killed millions of innocent Christians just like you
long time. Like I said, whenever you get an insulting
email telling you things like you're bought and paid for
and grow a pair. It'll be from the dumbest person
(10:45):
in the history of mankind talked about Dresden a hundred times.
You more on who do some more emails. Next The
Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
It's still real to me, damn it.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
The Tyrnstacks. It is the Jesse Kelly Show. Oh, on
a wonderful, wonderful Wednesday. Remember you can email us Jesse
at Jesse kellyshow dot com if you miss any part
of the show. He can download it on iHeart, Spotify, iTunes.
Now I want to talk about something very quickly. I'm
(11:16):
not going to go into depth on it because I
don't care that much. But it's just a it's a
good example of what we deal with a lot. The
Cracker Barrel thing that's been going around. You know, they
hired a bunch of dirty comedies, sponsored a bunch of
dirty pride stuff, decided to change their logo. Everybody got mad,
freaked out that where's the what do you do to
(11:37):
cracker Barrel? They came out today and they announced they're
changing the logo back. Don't fall for this, don't fall
for this. This is what the communist does when he
pushes things too far. He'll pretend like he's backing away.
How many pieces of undercover video or articles have you
(11:59):
heard me talk about about these various colleges or various
corporations who had a DEI head, the head of the
DEI department, and now that person still works there. They
just changed the name. They changed the name of the department.
And then people say, look at this, Harvard's getting rid
of DEI. It's about time. But they didn't get rid
(12:22):
of anything. They changed the name. They manipulated, they lied,
they hid, They knew people were onto them, so they
tried to fade the heat. As the kids say, this
cracker barrel thing is the exact same kind of thing.
They do this stuff all the time, and it's not
unique to cracker Barrel NFL. All these big corporations do this.
(12:45):
They push things way, way, way too long, way too far.
Finally people get completely outraged by the whole thing, and
they'll back off of one little part of it and say,
look up, we heard you. We have changed our ways. Now,
really who sponsored the Pride events? Where do they work now? Oh?
(13:11):
Still there? Don't follow it, don't believe it. Don't give
them your business. Jesse when I was younger, I remember
some of the candidate talking points included improving adoption and
foster care systems. Today, I don't even hear that adoption
is even suggested as an option. Just termination of life
your thoughts. I love the show. Adoption is just one
(13:34):
of the most wonderful things you can do for another
human being. I don't know why it doesn't get talked
about more. And I am not an adoption expert. I
have looked into it op and I considered it, of course,
so I've looked into it. Certainly not an expert. There
are plenty of people who've adopted who will know more
than me. H. The process is very difficult and very expensive,
(13:59):
extremely extremely expensive. So difficult and so expensive that a
lot of people who want to adopt end up going
overseas to adopt because the overseas adoption rules are way
way less than what we have here in the United
(14:19):
States of America, and there aren't loud advocates about this issue. Now.
I don't want to sit here and say it should
be easier. I don't want to say that either, because
I'm not an adoption expert, and you want to make sure,
dang sure that if you're allowing a couple to adopt
the child, that you're sending that child into a good home.
(14:42):
Because there are predators out there who adopt children and
foster children. It is a fact in the in the
foster the foster system. There are saints, just lovely people,
saints to take these kids in temporarily care for them,
fall in love with them, and then after let them
go wonderful people, and then there are freaking monsters who
(15:04):
run the foster system. If you were a child predator,
what would you sign up to do? You'd be working
at Chuck E Cheese and fostering kids in your spare time.
That's what they do. I don't know that I have
a solution except it's extremely sad and if you are
considering adoption, I would encourage you. I would encourage you
(15:26):
a child, a child should have loving parents, and to
be able to snatch a child out of the out
of the orphanage system and give them a wonderful home
is a God blessed thing. I know that. Hello, Jesse
and Chris, I was listening to your show. I had
an idea. Why not refer to your fan base as
(15:46):
Kelly's commandos? What you could also expand it into merchandise
like Camo hats and Camo barbecue aprons and things like that.
All the best, all right, I've heard that done many
times before, where a radio host will put a label on,
(16:11):
you know, the listeners. I guess I never considered it.
I don't. I don't think i'd go with Kelly's commandos.
But we should all wear robes? What Chris? What we
should wear robes? It'll be sweet, get our cozy earth robes. What, Chris.
Speaker 3 (16:27):
What?
Speaker 1 (16:29):
We're not gonna look like an army of Lebowski's. We're
gonna look like an army of people who understand comfort.
That's what we're gonna look like, Chris, A robe army.
It's definitely not gonna be Kelly's Commandos. I don't know, Chris,
is that cheesy? Cory is that cheese? I think it's cheesy,
not just the name to name it at all. I'm
(16:50):
just not sure about that that I'll have to think about.
What I don't have to think about is hydro electric power,
because I'm gonna ask Daniel Turner about it next. I'm
gonna ask Daniel Turner why he was talking to Congress
today Daniel Turner just got out of a meeting with Congress.
He was debriefing them. I want to debrief somebody. We'll
talk to him about what he was doing in a
(17:11):
moment before we talked to Daniel Turner, let me talk
to you about switching your cell phone service. Switching your
cell phone service sounds like a pain. I understand that completely.
Sounds like a pain. The only reason you would not
have switched to Pure Talk by now is you think
it's going to be a pain in the rear end.
(17:32):
You don't want to take three years. You don't want
to deal with the hassle. You don't want to have
to do this and have to do that. I am
telling you ten minutes on the phone speaking to an
American who speaks English and is pleasant, and you're done.
They'll mail you whatever you need. It's over. Pure Talk
(17:54):
makes it easy. You don't even need a new phone.
You don't need a new phone number. You can have
those things if you'd like. They make it pain free.
Is that not worth it to save yourself some money?
I mean, shoot, if for no other reason, is that
not worth it to save money? Dial pound two pin
(18:15):
fifty and say Jesse Kelly pound two five zero, say,
Jesse Kelly, We'll be back the Jesse Kelly Show. It
is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Wednesday. Reminding you
you can email the show Jesse at jessekellyshow dot com.
(18:36):
But we don't have time for that right now, because
mister big shot Daniel Turner with Power of the Future,
is here and he just got done briefing Congress. Gosh,
I want to brief Congress on something so bad I
don't even care what it is. Daniel, what happened in
Congress today?
Speaker 3 (18:50):
Well, first of off, Jesse, you are doing way more
important work. I know you ran for Congress back in
the day, and I think changing hearts and minds the
way you do, and writing books like you do, because
you know how much I loved your anti Communist Manifesto book,
which I still haven't gotten autographed, by the way, But
hold that against you. What you're doing there is way
(19:11):
more important than what these folks do up here. Not
that what they don't do is important, it is important,
but talking to the American people and motivating them and
inspiring them is way more valuable.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
Well, thank you, my brother. Now tell us what you
were doing what happened? What's going on?
Speaker 3 (19:27):
We're talking about energy, of course, you know, and we're
talking about how we have a lot of bad energy
situations happening. We have bad energy policy, decades of it.
It is not President and Trump's fault, but when you're
the guy in office and it lands before you, you're
the one who's going to get the blame. And we've
got thirty years of bad energy policy, just like we
(19:49):
have thirty years of bad spending policy, just like we
have how many years of debt? Social Security, medicare, Medicaid? Right,
all these systems seem to be coming to ahead, and
eventually you know that the straw is going to be
one too many and the camel's back is going to break.
And so my message here was how do we prepare
(20:09):
for this? How do we, you know, take the necessary
steps so it doesn't happen, but also how do we
start messaging to our constituents like, look, we're trying to
make some big boy decisions, and big boy decisions are
not always popular. I use a very silly analogy. I said,
if you have a kid and that kid loves his
iPhone or his iPad or sugar, you know, at a
(20:31):
certain point, you got to take it away, and that
kid screams and yells, and you give in because you're
tired of the screaming and yelling. But you know that
you are not making that kid's life better. You are
not preparing that kid for the future. We're at the
stage now that with the subsidies drying up for wind
and solar, with the easy tax credits, right the kid
is screaming and yelling. But if you give in and
(20:52):
keep spending money to keep that kid from screaming, you
are not making the country healthier. So we're at the
where the screaming kids age of American energy right now.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
Daniel, you educated us last time about the energy crisis
we are heading into because these data centers, these mega
data centers, keep getting built and they're gobbling up all
the energy we have and then there's not going to
be anything left for you and me when we flip
the lights withch on. So how do we get more
energy fast? Why does it take so long to create
(21:25):
more of it?
Speaker 3 (21:26):
It's absurd, bad policy, without a doubt. Everyone is slow
to build, but they're not slow to build data centers,
and we're putting them up left and right, I don't
know where in Texas is that famous Tesla one that
they keep seeing all the Instagram videos. The guy's driving
on the highway and it shows you how long he's
driving and the factory is it outside of Austin, outside
(21:48):
of Houston. I'd love to know what online energy, what
baseload energy they brought online when they gave Elon the
permit to build that. That thing probably takes more electricity.
I'm guessing in the city of San Antonio, I don't
know what electricity was brought online. I hate to always
use Texas as an example, but I want to demonstrate
(22:09):
that it's bipartisan stupidity. Texas has closed several reliable coal
plants in the last decade, and the promises we're gonna
build more wind and we're gonna build more solar and
wind and solar don't work because we have a thing
called night and we have a thing called no wind.
And what's your electricity rate in Texas? Right? You're paying
(22:30):
thirty more than the national average, and you're paying a
hell lot more than you paid in the last couple
of years. So why is wind and solar the viable option?
And that's what your governor will say. Sadly, that's what
everyone running for office will say. We need to support
Texas with good clean electricity, clean wind, and clean solar.
I want low prices, you know. And I don't know
(22:52):
what the temperature is right now. I saw yesterday it
was eighty eight degrees in Houston. That's pretty good for August.
But that's not how you do energy policy, right like, who,
thank god it's not hot.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
Speaking with Daniel Turner, Power of the Future, Daniel, what's
wrong with coal? I love coal. Nations are powered by coal,
and everybody the best you can get, the best you
could ever hope for out of a Republican And so
you'll go clean coal. Yeah, yes, of course, still that
qualifier on there. Why don't we have coal plants going
up everywhere?
Speaker 3 (23:23):
I would put a coal plant in my backyard if
I was given the permit too. We should have coal
absolutely everywhere, and it's absolutely essential, not just for electricity,
but for steel, for cement, for plastic, for almost all manufacturing.
We can't live without coal. That's why, you know, it
was so frustrating when you'd see that moron who was
(23:43):
in the White House the last couple of years talk
about how we were going to shut down every damn
coal plant in this country, and the idiots around him
would clap and say, you don't really know how things
are made there, mister Biden, do you you know you
don't realize that you can't make steel without coal. It's
just absolutely impossible. So no, we should be building cold more.
(24:04):
And we have several coal plants. I mentioned the five
in Texas that have been shuttered. They should be turned
back on and turned back on quick quick, because, like
I mentioned, with your balmy mid August day yesterday, that
is a bad policy to say, thank god, it's not
so hot and you're not getting these messages. Hey, Kelly family,
(24:25):
you should raise your thermostat and not heat your pool, right.
I've seen you tweet about that. Don't tell me how
to consume electricity. You guys, produce more of it. That's
your damn job. That hasn't happened a lot because we've
had a balmy year. But dodging a bullet is not
good policy, and we have dodged a bullet this year.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Danie'll tell me about hydro power. Why is that not bigger?
Or is it big? And I just don't know about it.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
It is big, especially in places like my home state
of New York, which a huge percentage of the state's
power comes from hydro because of Niagara Falls, and that's wonderful.
And most of Canada is powered because of Niagara Falls.
But for hydro to work, you either need a natural development,
a natural area like Niagara Falls, or you need to
(25:12):
build a great, big dam. Remember back in the day,
MSNBC used to have those commercials with Chris Matthews at
the Hoover Dam and Rachel Maddow and they talk about
we used to build great things in this country and
we don't build anymore. The idea that we would build
the Hoover Dam in America right now is impossible, right
(25:33):
The idea of blocking a river of changing ecosystems, Jesse,
there may have been a native tribe that once performed
a ritual on the land nearby. So that's the biggest
problem for hydro. We could dam rivers everywhere, and we
could build natural reservoirs and natural waterfalls, and we could
have water supply. Texas could be doing this everywhere and
(25:54):
you'd never have to worry about water in Texas. But
good luck trying to battle the environment groups and who
is the political courage to do that? So what do
you do? Win power? Jesse. That's what Texans do. They
do what's politically palatable. And that's why Texas is in
the pickle.
Speaker 4 (26:13):
That is.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
And again I hate picking on Texas, but I use
you guys specifically as an example because Texans are not.
Texas is not quiet as Texan as Texans think Texas is.
And that's important for America to know. We look at
Texas as the example of conservative everything, and it's not,
and it's hiding and it's giving its bad example to
other Red states to follow.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
He is not wrong at all. Daniel Turner, Power the Future.
Thank you, my brother. I appreciate it.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
God bless you, Jesse. You great to be with you.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
We Red States. You know I'm here in Texas. We
suffer from complacency because the animals aren't running around in
the streets here, because things are halfway saying here. We
don't get motivated, we don't show up in primaries, we
don't take over our elected office. And remember I played
(27:09):
this for you earlier. Did I play this? Maybe I
didn't play this one earlier, but this is Trey GOUDI
with Fox News Trey Goudi, you know, former Republican Congressman Trey.
Let's just tray gouty after that show.
Speaker 5 (27:21):
And the only way to stop it is to identify
the shooter ahead of time or keep the weapons out
of their hands. And so we're going to have to
have a conversation of freedom versus protecting children. I mean,
how many school shootings does it take before we're going
to have a conversation about keeping firearms out? It's always
a young white male, almost always. I mean, did anyone
(27:44):
this morning?
Speaker 1 (27:46):
There are a lot of Republicans who are actually Democrats,
especially in red states, your red state. That Republican you
have who represents you, he's a Democrat. He knows he
has to pretend, but he's a Democrat. Remember that. And
remember this your information, things like your social Security number,
(28:09):
your bank information, all this stuff. It's worth a lot
of money. Did you know that? A ton of money.
That's why identity theft, having your information stolen, that's why
it's such a multi billion dollar industry because it's worth
a lot of money. What are you doing to stop them?
(28:31):
LifeLock is the only thing. LifeLock is the only thing
I trust for it. LifeLock will detect and alert you
whenever there's any kind of a threat on your identity.
And if God forbid something does happen, you wake up
and your bank account's gone. They have restoration specialists. They'll
fits it. They'll make you whole. Protect yourself one eight
(28:56):
hundred LifeLock or go to life flock dot com that
gets you forty percent off. Don't lose it all. Protect yourself.
It's peace of mind. Terms apply. We'll be back the
Jesse Kelly Show. I Like It returns next. It is
The Jesse Kelly Show, final segment of The Jesse Kelly
(29:18):
Show on a Fantastic Wednesday. Remembery, you can email us
Jesse at Jesse Kellyshow dot com. So I should have
told you this earlier, but I'll be honest with you,
it kind of slipped my mind. I an inquiry was made.
I'm gonna have to I'm gonna have to be vague
on some things. An inquiry was made if I would
(29:42):
be interested in taking up the position of the head
of one of the major departments of the government. I'll
put it that way. One of the major departments. I
don't know, a fairly large one you would certainly know it.
I'll put it. I'll put it to you that way.
I am not telling you that they offered me the gig.
(30:04):
I am saying they reached out and said, hey, would
you be interested? I interned. Don't worry, I'm not leaving
you because I did ask, well, can I fire everybody?
And that's the verbat in what I said, and they said, well,
I mean no, they said, ma'am, then I'm probably not interested.
(30:28):
All right, I'm not going anywhere. Don't worry. It's not
a They're not missing out without me. I'll put it
to you that way. What Chris, what what if they
did let me fire everyone? I probably would have taken
the job. I'm not kidding. Wow. We have to reduce
the government. There's only one way. Look, we talked about
(30:50):
this before. You can't use a scalpel when it comes
to cleaning communists out of anything, whether it's a government
or a university or a private corporation or anything. You
have to if you're going to error, you have to
cut too deep, not too shallow. You have to. Right now,
the Trump administration is doing everything they can do because
(31:11):
there's all these ridiculous rules against firing people in mass finings.
You can't let them go. They're doing everything they can do.
It appears to get these people gone. That's what it appears,
that they're doing everything they can do. But even then
you see how limited it is, and it's not going
to be enough. We're not going to get all the
commies out of the government in Trump's four years. Hopefully
(31:34):
we can do a lot of good, get the worst
actors out of there. But if you really want to
clean out the gunk, you have to do more than
the top floor. And that rhymed, And I did that
on purpose, Chris, don't roll your eyes that rhyme. Jesse
Kelly for the head of ATF. It was not the heyed,
it was not the ATF. But then I most definitely
(31:54):
would have insisted on firing everybody. In fact, I would
have taken it a step further. If it's the ATF,
can I just fire everybody and close the department, because
that's what I would do. Oh you know what I
could do, Chris, take over the ATF. It wasn't the ATF.
Take over the ATF. Suspend everybody. They'd probably let you
do that, suspend everyone, the entire department all across the country.
(32:19):
Then change the locks on all the doors and just
never come back to work. Just come right back. It
would take me a day. In fact, I probably only
missed one show. Maybe I could do it on the weekend. Hey,
everybody is suspended. Bring in all the best locksmiths in
the world and put the most lockdown system in the world.
(32:39):
Everyone suspended, and me, I'm going on vacation and come
right back and do the show. What Chris, this would
be effective. I feel like this would work. I feel
good about this. Jesse. My wife and I had the
fourth kid you recommended, and guess what, it's another girl.
So yeah, I have four of them now, and I'm
probably better off for it. My wife is truly a dime.
(33:01):
We're going to raise four girls with traditional values. So on,
so forth. I've made peace with being poor. I drive
old cars and buy store branded food. Fast food is
a luxury. I don't need. We tithe what we can
at church, and we give extra farm eggs to the
old ladies. The only way is through so on and
so forth. I know I have to be a model
(33:22):
man for my daughters so they marry strong men. Yes, sir,
what words of encouragement. Do you have you said I've
made peace with being poor. You have a dime and
you have four baby girls. You are wealthy beyond belief.
(33:44):
The family is the wealth. I know rich people, I
know poor people. It's easy, especially when you're in bad
financial circumstances. It's easy to think that you would be
at LEAs at least a little happier if you just
had money. If you had if you can take the
(34:06):
old lady out to red Lobster on a Friday night,
If I could just do that, I would be happier.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Man.
Speaker 1 (34:13):
I know rich guys who have so much money they'll
buy thirty thousand dollars rolexes. I have a friend. We're
not probably more of an acquaintance. I know a guy
who bought a two hundred and fifteen thousand dollars Lamborghini
(34:34):
that he's driven. I think he's had it a year.
I think he's driven it twice. He told me he
doesn't even need it, doesn't even really use it. Imagine
having two hundred and fifteen thousand dollars to blow on
something that you don't need, it didn't use, and you
know what, he's frigging miserable, miserable. Don't think that I
(34:54):
don't want to sound like the Beatles here of don't
think that money buys happiness. It really true. He does
not to have a family. If you have a spouse
you love, and Lord Willing loves you back, and you
have children who love you and you love them, you
have everything. Ab and I. I told you this when
(35:14):
we were living in an apartment, a small one, when
we were living in an extended stay hotel with two babies.
They were both under three, two kids under three. We
were living in an extended stay hotel at the time
of our lives. Laughs, the works. Remember that. All you
need is that and Relief Factor. Relief Factor you kind
(35:36):
of do need that too. It's one hundred percent drug free.
It's a supplement, a supplement that helps your body's natural
response to pain. It was created by doctors. But you
know how much I despise drugs. How do you deal
with pain? Either people ignore it or they take something
to mask it. You don't need to do that. Go
(36:00):
to relief Factor dot com and buy a three week
quick start, or go to one eight hundred number four
Relief Well, don't go call what eight hundred the number
four relief. Just try it for three weeks. Three weeks
is nineteen ninety five. That's less than a buck a day.
Just give it a try before you give up and
walk away from doing the things you love to do.
(36:22):
All right, all right, and now here's a headline by
go you know, you know the thing headlines We didn't
get to defense Giant Ryan Medal opens megaplant as europe rearms.
Uh oh, it's in Germany. That's generally not good. India,
(36:43):
once a solid US, ally grapples with Trump's fifty percent tariffs,
one of the highest in the world. Trump is really
going after India for buying up all that Russian oil.
He's doing what he feels like yes to do. I'm
not actually not questioning it. Maybe that that's the best
way to handle it. My only concern is if India
(37:03):
goes into the arms of China. That's about two billion people.
We have to contend with dozens of students attacked by
bees on the first day of school in Ashland. That's Ashland, Massachusetts.
How do you not like bees? I stuck a stick
in a hornet's nest one time, trying to trap them
in there. Well, Chris I thought I could outrun them.
Turns out I could not actually outrun them. That was
(37:25):
news to me. CNN reporters shocked as Chicago resident defends
Trump on crime. Yes, everybody in the media is shocked
that people don't want to be shot and murdered anyway.
We'll come back tomorrow and do it again, that's all.
This is a Jesse Kelly show. It is the Jesse
Kelly Show. Final hour of the Jesse Kelly Show on
a magnificent Wednesday. Do not forget. You can email the
show Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com. So we are Uh.
I'll get back to some emails in a few in
(00:32):
a few minutes, but I have I have a couple
of things on my mind. First of all, I've been
thinking a lot about grilled cheese sandwiches lately. It's been dumped.
What Chris, what do you mean? Why can you people
not eat girl cheese sandwiches? You can velveta little velveta,
maybe a little prova. What what it's too rich? It
(00:55):
can be You can over velveta a sandwich. You can
use regular craft slices. If you want to be fancy pants,
you can add a couple different chatter. Uh what's that?
One starts with a G? I can ever said? Ob
usually asked this, gre are Yeah, that's what I was
trying to say, gre Air provolone. I told you I
went to the Texas State Fair at one time. Highly
(01:17):
recommend if you've never gone, and they're famous for all
the deep fried foods. It's very healthy place. RFK Junior
would lose his mine there the best thing there, and
I had it all right. I even tried the weird
stuff deep fried butter. It was way too much, way
too much. Deep fried Oreos and deep fried twinkies and
deep fried there. And they added deep fried pizza. They
(01:37):
deep fried sliced pizza. The best thing I ate at
the Texas State Fair by a mile was a deep
fried grilled cheese sandwich. Maybe it doesn't sound good, I'm
telling you what. It was amazing. What, Chris, what can
we do the show from there? It's in a month.
(02:00):
I mean, I guess maybe do you want to do
the show from there? Well, I don't want to do
it outside. You can't do it outside because then the
show sounds like crap for everybody. Maybe we could go
up there, or it's up by Dallas. Right, it's up
by Dallas. We can go up there. Sure, I want
to eat some girl cheese sandwiches. That's been on my mind.
You know what else has been on my mind? The
(02:22):
video that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth put out earlier today.
It's a little long. I might cut it off, but
I'm gonna let it play, and I just I want
you to take this in. It's been such a heavy
day that I almost thought about just pushing this until tomorrow,
but I wanted to talk about it. I am floored.
(02:44):
I can't stop thinking about it. Here he was.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
Last month, the Department of Defense was made aware of
an Obama Biden era legacy program called Digital Escorts. For
nearly a decade, Microsoft has used Chinese coders remotely supervised
by contractors to support sensitive DoD cloud systems. Program was
designed to comply with contracting rules, but it exposed the
(03:09):
Department to unacceptable risk. I mean, if you're thinking America
first and common sense, this doesn't.
Speaker 3 (03:15):
Pass either of those tests.
Speaker 2 (03:17):
So I initiated an immediate review of this vulnerability, and
I want to report our initial findings. So, the use
of Chinese nationals to service Department of Defense cloud environments,
it's over. We've issued a formal letter of concern to
Microsoft documenting this breach of trust, and we're requiring a
third party audit of Microsoft's Digital Escort program, including the code.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
And so, first of all, I want to make something clear,
crystal clear. The cloud. Have you ever heard about this?
The cloud it's stored on the cloud. We have this
on the cloud. This in the cloud. That you've heard
of this concept, I'm assuming it's not in the clouds.
(04:02):
The cloud means it's stored on someone else's computer. That's
what it means. There's no actual cloud in the sky
that has your iPhone pictures. They're kept on someone else's computer.
Barack Obama and Joe Biden, they gave our defense secrets
(04:24):
to the Chinese on purpose. Let's just remember. Let's remember
Joe Biden's ties to China, his family's ties to China.
It was something we talked about all the time when
he was president, and he would do these baffling things,
(04:46):
like when they allowed the Chinese spy balloon to traverse
the entire country, hovering over doing figure eights over our
military bases, obviously collecting information. They allowed it to go
from the Pacific to the Atlantic before they shot it down.
They could have taken it out of the sky anytime.
They didn't order it. Just let them do it, now, Chris,
(05:09):
to me a favor. Play that video again. Just think
about the Biden administration, Joe Biden, his family's ties to China.
Think about all the critically important information. The Department of
Defense has now listen to this again.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Last month, the Department of Defense was made aware of
an Obama Biden era legacy program called Digital Escorts. For
nearly a decade, Microsoft has used Chinese coders remotely supervised
by US contractors to support sensitive DoD cloud systems. Program
was designed to comply with contracting rules, but it exposed
(05:48):
the Department to unacceptable risk. I mean, if you're thinking
America first and common sense.
Speaker 1 (05:54):
We farmed out to Microsoft, who farmed out to Chinese nationals,
and it wasn't like we didn't know it. The Chinese
nationals reported to us how much stuff did they take
from there? How much stuff did they put in to there.
(06:16):
We've talked before many times, including tonight, about how China
is a bribery society. It's what they do from rare
earth minerals, government officials. They're a bribery society. You show
up with a sack of cash, you buy what you want. Remember,
we talked with BK just a couple of minutes ago.
(06:38):
We talked with BK about the US Navy sailor going
to prison, possibly for life, for twelve Grand has handed
him twelve thousand dollars. They bribe people, that's what they do.
How many American politicians do you believe are currently bribed
by China? And look, let's politicians aside. How many people
(07:03):
with the Pentagon have Chinese money in their bank account?
How many people with the FBI, CIA, NSA, US Army,
US Marines, Navy, Air Force, Coast Guard. You know, we
caught one, you know how it goes. If you caught one,
(07:25):
there are how many others out there who haven't been caught.
It's one of those uncomfortable things about crime that cops
will tell you, Yeah, it's great, you got one tried, convicted,
but they don't catch even close to half. You get
away with it. How much of our government has been
(07:46):
bought by communists China? Remember Eric Swalwell? I know, because
Democrats were running things, they managed to kind of sweep
that whole thing under the rug. Eric Swalwell was on
the House Intelligence Committee. I've twet you this before. If
you go to the Hill, if you go to Capitol Hill,
you walk through the congressional buildings, you'll see various meeting
(08:08):
rooms where the various committees meet, and there's not really
security there don't get wrong, there's cops and stuff like that,
but it's just a door. You open it up, it's
just a conference room or like what are the places
you see on television where they're interviewing people. It's just
a little rooms all over the place, except for one
the House Intelligence Committee, because they deal with national security secrets.
(08:32):
You will know it when you see it, and you
will not be popping your head in. I promise you
that it is secured to the max. You look at
it and you think, oh my gosh, what is that
the CIA. It's James Bond in there. That's the secret
stuff they discuss. Eric Swolwell got taken in by a
(08:52):
Chinese spy. How often has this happened? How much of
our country has been sold to China on purpose? Over
and over and over again. We keep running into China
this and China that, and I'll continue to say, I
can't believe they're not broke, given how many people ak
(09:14):
around the world they're bribing. I don't know where all
the money's coming from, but apparently China always finds some
more of it. Then again, if it only costs twelve
thousand dollars from a US Navy sailor maybe we're pretty cheap.
That is our reputation, after all, pretty freaking cheap. I mean, imagine,
imagine how cheap rask it must go trying.
Speaker 4 (09:32):
To militarize our society, intimidate its political opponents. The whole
idea of picking cities based on their partisan leadership is absurd.
I mean, there are lots of Republican cities in town
struggling with crime. Everybody is across the country always, Crime
has always been part of our history. And yet crime
(09:53):
is down in DC, for example, it's at a thirty
year low. It's down in Baltimore, it's in Chicago.
Speaker 1 (10:01):
Yeah, sure, dude. I appreciate your history comments, respect your
youthful attitude about communism. Why don't you ever mention Dresden
or the atrocities on Catholics. You seem to be bought
and paid for when you speak of anything after World
War Two? All due respect, you're getting to be like
(10:22):
Vince's the Princess? Who is that? Chris? Grow a pair.
These people killed millions of innocent Christians just like you
long time. Like I said, whenever you get an insulting
email telling you things like you're bought and paid for
and grow a pair. It'll be from the dumbest person
(10:45):
in the history of mankind talked about Dresden a hundred times.
You more on who do some more emails. Next The
Jesse Kelly Show.
Speaker 3 (10:52):
It's still real to me, damn it.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
The Tyrnstacks. It is the Jesse Kelly Show. Oh, on
a wonderful, wonderful Wednesday. Remember you can email us Jesse
at Jesse kellyshow dot com if you miss any part
of the show. He can download it on iHeart, Spotify, iTunes.
Now I want to talk about something very quickly. I'm
(11:16):
not going to go into depth on it because I
don't care that much. But it's just a it's a
good example of what we deal with a lot. The
Cracker Barrel thing that's been going around. You know, they
hired a bunch of dirty comedies, sponsored a bunch of
dirty pride stuff, decided to change their logo. Everybody got mad,
freaked out that where's the what do you do to
(11:37):
cracker Barrel? They came out today and they announced they're
changing the logo back. Don't fall for this, don't fall
for this. This is what the communist does when he
pushes things too far. He'll pretend like he's backing away.
How many pieces of undercover video or articles have you
(11:59):
heard me talk about about these various colleges or various
corporations who had a DEI head, the head of the
DEI department, and now that person still works there. They
just changed the name. They changed the name of the department.
And then people say, look at this, Harvard's getting rid
of DEI. It's about time. But they didn't get rid
(12:22):
of anything. They changed the name. They manipulated, they lied,
they hid, They knew people were onto them, so they
tried to fade the heat. As the kids say, this
cracker barrel thing is the exact same kind of thing.
They do this stuff all the time, and it's not
unique to cracker Barrel NFL. All these big corporations do this.
(12:45):
They push things way, way, way too long, way too far.
Finally people get completely outraged by the whole thing, and
they'll back off of one little part of it and say,
look up, we heard you. We have changed our ways. Now,
really who sponsored the Pride events? Where do they work now? Oh?
(13:11):
Still there? Don't follow it, don't believe it. Don't give
them your business. Jesse when I was younger, I remember
some of the candidate talking points included improving adoption and
foster care systems. Today, I don't even hear that adoption
is even suggested as an option. Just termination of life
your thoughts. I love the show. Adoption is just one
(13:34):
of the most wonderful things you can do for another
human being. I don't know why it doesn't get talked
about more. And I am not an adoption expert. I
have looked into it op and I considered it, of course,
so I've looked into it. Certainly not an expert. There
are plenty of people who've adopted who will know more
than me. H. The process is very difficult and very expensive,
(13:59):
extremely extremely expensive. So difficult and so expensive that a
lot of people who want to adopt end up going
overseas to adopt because the overseas adoption rules are way
way less than what we have here in the United
(14:19):
States of America, and there aren't loud advocates about this issue. Now.
I don't want to sit here and say it should
be easier. I don't want to say that either, because
I'm not an adoption expert, and you want to make sure,
dang sure that if you're allowing a couple to adopt
the child, that you're sending that child into a good home.
(14:42):
Because there are predators out there who adopt children and
foster children. It is a fact in the in the
foster the foster system. There are saints, just lovely people,
saints to take these kids in temporarily care for them,
fall in love with them, and then after let them
go wonderful people, and then there are freaking monsters who
(15:04):
run the foster system. If you were a child predator,
what would you sign up to do? You'd be working
at Chuck E Cheese and fostering kids in your spare time.
That's what they do. I don't know that I have
a solution except it's extremely sad and if you are
considering adoption, I would encourage you. I would encourage you
(15:26):
a child, a child should have loving parents, and to
be able to snatch a child out of the out
of the orphanage system and give them a wonderful home
is a God blessed thing. I know that. Hello, Jesse
and Chris, I was listening to your show. I had
an idea. Why not refer to your fan base as
(15:46):
Kelly's commandos? What you could also expand it into merchandise
like Camo hats and Camo barbecue aprons and things like that.
All the best, all right, I've heard that done many
times before, where a radio host will put a label on,
(16:11):
you know, the listeners. I guess I never considered it.
I don't. I don't think i'd go with Kelly's commandos.
But we should all wear robes? What Chris? What we
should wear robes? It'll be sweet, get our cozy earth robes. What, Chris.
Speaker 3 (16:27):
What?
Speaker 1 (16:29):
We're not gonna look like an army of Lebowski's. We're
gonna look like an army of people who understand comfort.
That's what we're gonna look like, Chris, A robe army.
It's definitely not gonna be Kelly's Commandos. I don't know, Chris,
is that cheesy? Cory is that cheese? I think it's cheesy,
not just the name to name it at all. I'm
(16:50):
just not sure about that that I'll have to think about.
What I don't have to think about is hydro electric power,
because I'm gonna ask Daniel Turner about it next. I'm
gonna ask Daniel Turner why he was talking to Congress
today Daniel Turner just got out of a meeting with Congress.
He was debriefing them. I want to debrief somebody. We'll
talk to him about what he was doing in a
(17:11):
moment before we talked to Daniel Turner, let me talk
to you about switching your cell phone service. Switching your
cell phone service sounds like a pain. I understand that completely.
Sounds like a pain. The only reason you would not
have switched to Pure Talk by now is you think
it's going to be a pain in the rear end.
(17:32):
You don't want to take three years. You don't want
to deal with the hassle. You don't want to have
to do this and have to do that. I am
telling you ten minutes on the phone speaking to an
American who speaks English and is pleasant, and you're done.
They'll mail you whatever you need. It's over. Pure Talk
(17:54):
makes it easy. You don't even need a new phone.
You don't need a new phone number. You can have
those things if you'd like. They make it pain free.
Is that not worth it to save yourself some money?
I mean, shoot, if for no other reason, is that
not worth it to save money? Dial pound two pin
(18:15):
fifty and say Jesse Kelly pound two five zero, say,
Jesse Kelly, We'll be back the Jesse Kelly Show. It
is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Wednesday. Reminding you
you can email the show Jesse at jessekellyshow dot com.
(18:36):
But we don't have time for that right now, because
mister big shot Daniel Turner with Power of the Future,
is here and he just got done briefing Congress. Gosh,
I want to brief Congress on something so bad I
don't even care what it is. Daniel, what happened in
Congress today?
Speaker 3 (18:50):
Well, first of off, Jesse, you are doing way more
important work. I know you ran for Congress back in
the day, and I think changing hearts and minds the
way you do, and writing books like you do, because
you know how much I loved your anti Communist Manifesto book,
which I still haven't gotten autographed, by the way, But
hold that against you. What you're doing there is way
(19:11):
more important than what these folks do up here. Not
that what they don't do is important, it is important,
but talking to the American people and motivating them and
inspiring them is way more valuable.
Speaker 1 (19:23):
Well, thank you, my brother. Now tell us what you
were doing what happened? What's going on?
Speaker 3 (19:27):
We're talking about energy, of course, you know, and we're
talking about how we have a lot of bad energy
situations happening. We have bad energy policy, decades of it.
It is not President and Trump's fault, but when you're
the guy in office and it lands before you, you're
the one who's going to get the blame. And we've
got thirty years of bad energy policy, just like we
(19:49):
have thirty years of bad spending policy, just like we
have how many years of debt? Social Security, medicare, Medicaid? Right,
all these systems seem to be coming to ahead, and
eventually you know that the straw is going to be
one too many and the camel's back is going to break.
And so my message here was how do we prepare
(20:09):
for this? How do we, you know, take the necessary
steps so it doesn't happen, but also how do we
start messaging to our constituents like, look, we're trying to
make some big boy decisions, and big boy decisions are
not always popular. I use a very silly analogy. I said,
if you have a kid and that kid loves his
iPhone or his iPad or sugar, you know, at a
(20:31):
certain point, you got to take it away, and that
kid screams and yells, and you give in because you're
tired of the screaming and yelling. But you know that
you are not making that kid's life better. You are
not preparing that kid for the future. We're at the
stage now that with the subsidies drying up for wind
and solar, with the easy tax credits, right the kid
is screaming and yelling. But if you give in and
(20:52):
keep spending money to keep that kid from screaming, you
are not making the country healthier. So we're at the
where the screaming kids age of American energy right now.
Speaker 1 (21:02):
Daniel, you educated us last time about the energy crisis
we are heading into because these data centers, these mega
data centers, keep getting built and they're gobbling up all
the energy we have and then there's not going to
be anything left for you and me when we flip
the lights withch on. So how do we get more
energy fast? Why does it take so long to create
(21:25):
more of it?
Speaker 3 (21:26):
It's absurd, bad policy, without a doubt. Everyone is slow
to build, but they're not slow to build data centers,
and we're putting them up left and right, I don't
know where in Texas is that famous Tesla one that
they keep seeing all the Instagram videos. The guy's driving
on the highway and it shows you how long he's
driving and the factory is it outside of Austin, outside
(21:48):
of Houston. I'd love to know what online energy, what
baseload energy they brought online when they gave Elon the
permit to build that. That thing probably takes more electricity.
I'm guessing in the city of San Antonio, I don't
know what electricity was brought online. I hate to always
use Texas as an example, but I want to demonstrate
(22:09):
that it's bipartisan stupidity. Texas has closed several reliable coal
plants in the last decade, and the promises we're gonna
build more wind and we're gonna build more solar and
wind and solar don't work because we have a thing
called night and we have a thing called no wind.
And what's your electricity rate in Texas? Right? You're paying
(22:30):
thirty more than the national average, and you're paying a
hell lot more than you paid in the last couple
of years. So why is wind and solar the viable option?
And that's what your governor will say. Sadly, that's what
everyone running for office will say. We need to support
Texas with good clean electricity, clean wind, and clean solar.
I want low prices, you know. And I don't know
(22:52):
what the temperature is right now. I saw yesterday it
was eighty eight degrees in Houston. That's pretty good for August.
But that's not how you do energy policy, right like, who,
thank god it's not hot.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
Speaking with Daniel Turner, Power of the Future, Daniel, what's
wrong with coal? I love coal. Nations are powered by coal,
and everybody the best you can get, the best you
could ever hope for out of a Republican And so
you'll go clean coal. Yeah, yes, of course, still that
qualifier on there. Why don't we have coal plants going
up everywhere?
Speaker 3 (23:23):
I would put a coal plant in my backyard if
I was given the permit too. We should have coal
absolutely everywhere, and it's absolutely essential, not just for electricity,
but for steel, for cement, for plastic, for almost all manufacturing.
We can't live without coal. That's why, you know, it
was so frustrating when you'd see that moron who was
(23:43):
in the White House the last couple of years talk
about how we were going to shut down every damn
coal plant in this country, and the idiots around him
would clap and say, you don't really know how things
are made there, mister Biden, do you you know you
don't realize that you can't make steel without coal. It's
just absolutely impossible. So no, we should be building cold more.
(24:04):
And we have several coal plants. I mentioned the five
in Texas that have been shuttered. They should be turned
back on and turned back on quick quick, because, like
I mentioned, with your balmy mid August day yesterday, that
is a bad policy to say, thank god, it's not
so hot and you're not getting these messages. Hey, Kelly family,
(24:25):
you should raise your thermostat and not heat your pool, right.
I've seen you tweet about that. Don't tell me how
to consume electricity. You guys, produce more of it. That's
your damn job. That hasn't happened a lot because we've
had a balmy year. But dodging a bullet is not
good policy, and we have dodged a bullet this year.
Speaker 1 (24:43):
Danie'll tell me about hydro power. Why is that not bigger?
Or is it big? And I just don't know about it.
Speaker 3 (24:50):
It is big, especially in places like my home state
of New York, which a huge percentage of the state's
power comes from hydro because of Niagara Falls, and that's wonderful.
And most of Canada is powered because of Niagara Falls.
But for hydro to work, you either need a natural development,
a natural area like Niagara Falls, or you need to
(25:12):
build a great, big dam. Remember back in the day,
MSNBC used to have those commercials with Chris Matthews at
the Hoover Dam and Rachel Maddow and they talk about
we used to build great things in this country and
we don't build anymore. The idea that we would build
the Hoover Dam in America right now is impossible, right
(25:33):
The idea of blocking a river of changing ecosystems, Jesse,
there may have been a native tribe that once performed
a ritual on the land nearby. So that's the biggest
problem for hydro. We could dam rivers everywhere, and we
could build natural reservoirs and natural waterfalls, and we could
have water supply. Texas could be doing this everywhere and
(25:54):
you'd never have to worry about water in Texas. But
good luck trying to battle the environment groups and who
is the political courage to do that? So what do
you do? Win power? Jesse. That's what Texans do. They
do what's politically palatable. And that's why Texas is in
the pickle.
Speaker 4 (26:13):
That is.
Speaker 3 (26:14):
And again I hate picking on Texas, but I use
you guys specifically as an example because Texans are not.
Texas is not quiet as Texan as Texans think Texas is.
And that's important for America to know. We look at
Texas as the example of conservative everything, and it's not,
and it's hiding and it's giving its bad example to
other Red states to follow.
Speaker 1 (26:36):
He is not wrong at all. Daniel Turner, Power the Future.
Thank you, my brother. I appreciate it.
Speaker 3 (26:42):
God bless you, Jesse. You great to be with you.
Speaker 1 (26:46):
We Red States. You know I'm here in Texas. We
suffer from complacency because the animals aren't running around in
the streets here, because things are halfway saying here. We
don't get motivated, we don't show up in primaries, we
don't take over our elected office. And remember I played
(27:09):
this for you earlier. Did I play this? Maybe I
didn't play this one earlier, but this is Trey GOUDI
with Fox News Trey Goudi, you know, former Republican Congressman Trey.
Let's just tray gouty after that show.
Speaker 5 (27:21):
And the only way to stop it is to identify
the shooter ahead of time or keep the weapons out
of their hands. And so we're going to have to
have a conversation of freedom versus protecting children. I mean,
how many school shootings does it take before we're going
to have a conversation about keeping firearms out? It's always
a young white male, almost always. I mean, did anyone
(27:44):
this morning?
Speaker 1 (27:46):
There are a lot of Republicans who are actually Democrats,
especially in red states, your red state. That Republican you
have who represents you, he's a Democrat. He knows he
has to pretend, but he's a Democrat. Remember that. And
remember this your information, things like your social Security number,
(28:09):
your bank information, all this stuff. It's worth a lot
of money. Did you know that? A ton of money.
That's why identity theft, having your information stolen, that's why
it's such a multi billion dollar industry because it's worth
a lot of money. What are you doing to stop them?
(28:31):
LifeLock is the only thing. LifeLock is the only thing
I trust for it. LifeLock will detect and alert you
whenever there's any kind of a threat on your identity.
And if God forbid something does happen, you wake up
and your bank account's gone. They have restoration specialists. They'll
fits it. They'll make you whole. Protect yourself one eight
(28:56):
hundred LifeLock or go to life flock dot com that
gets you forty percent off. Don't lose it all. Protect yourself.
It's peace of mind. Terms apply. We'll be back the
Jesse Kelly Show. I Like It returns next. It is
The Jesse Kelly Show, final segment of The Jesse Kelly
(29:18):
Show on a Fantastic Wednesday. Remembery, you can email us
Jesse at Jesse Kellyshow dot com. So I should have
told you this earlier, but I'll be honest with you,
it kind of slipped my mind. I an inquiry was made.
I'm gonna have to I'm gonna have to be vague
on some things. An inquiry was made if I would
(29:42):
be interested in taking up the position of the head
of one of the major departments of the government. I'll
put it that way. One of the major departments. I
don't know, a fairly large one you would certainly know it.
I'll put it. I'll put it to you that way.
I am not telling you that they offered me the gig.
(30:04):
I am saying they reached out and said, hey, would
you be interested? I interned. Don't worry, I'm not leaving
you because I did ask, well, can I fire everybody?
And that's the verbat in what I said, and they said, well,
I mean no, they said, ma'am, then I'm probably not interested.
(30:28):
All right, I'm not going anywhere. Don't worry. It's not
a They're not missing out without me. I'll put it
to you that way. What Chris, what what if they
did let me fire everyone? I probably would have taken
the job. I'm not kidding. Wow. We have to reduce
the government. There's only one way. Look, we talked about
(30:50):
this before. You can't use a scalpel when it comes
to cleaning communists out of anything, whether it's a government
or a university or a private corporation or anything. You
have to if you're going to error, you have to
cut too deep, not too shallow. You have to. Right now,
the Trump administration is doing everything they can do because
(31:11):
there's all these ridiculous rules against firing people in mass finings.
You can't let them go. They're doing everything they can do.
It appears to get these people gone. That's what it appears,
that they're doing everything they can do. But even then
you see how limited it is, and it's not going
to be enough. We're not going to get all the
commies out of the government in Trump's four years. Hopefully
(31:34):
we can do a lot of good, get the worst
actors out of there. But if you really want to
clean out the gunk, you have to do more than
the top floor. And that rhymed, And I did that
on purpose, Chris, don't roll your eyes that rhyme. Jesse
Kelly for the head of ATF. It was not the heyed,
it was not the ATF. But then I most definitely
(31:54):
would have insisted on firing everybody. In fact, I would
have taken it a step further. If it's the ATF,
can I just fire everybody and close the department, because
that's what I would do. Oh you know what I
could do, Chris, take over the ATF. It wasn't the ATF.
Take over the ATF. Suspend everybody. They'd probably let you
do that, suspend everyone, the entire department all across the country.
(32:19):
Then change the locks on all the doors and just
never come back to work. Just come right back. It
would take me a day. In fact, I probably only
missed one show. Maybe I could do it on the weekend. Hey,
everybody is suspended. Bring in all the best locksmiths in
the world and put the most lockdown system in the world.
(32:39):
Everyone suspended, and me, I'm going on vacation and come
right back and do the show. What Chris, this would
be effective. I feel like this would work. I feel
good about this. Jesse. My wife and I had the
fourth kid you recommended, and guess what, it's another girl.
So yeah, I have four of them now, and I'm
probably better off for it. My wife is truly a dime.
(33:01):
We're going to raise four girls with traditional values. So on,
so forth. I've made peace with being poor. I drive
old cars and buy store branded food. Fast food is
a luxury. I don't need. We tithe what we can
at church, and we give extra farm eggs to the
old ladies. The only way is through so on and
so forth. I know I have to be a model
(33:22):
man for my daughters so they marry strong men. Yes, sir,
what words of encouragement. Do you have you said I've
made peace with being poor. You have a dime and
you have four baby girls. You are wealthy beyond belief.
(33:44):
The family is the wealth. I know rich people, I
know poor people. It's easy, especially when you're in bad
financial circumstances. It's easy to think that you would be
at LEAs at least a little happier if you just
had money. If you had if you can take the
(34:06):
old lady out to red Lobster on a Friday night,
If I could just do that, I would be happier.
Speaker 3 (34:12):
Man.
Speaker 1 (34:13):
I know rich guys who have so much money they'll
buy thirty thousand dollars rolexes. I have a friend. We're
not probably more of an acquaintance. I know a guy
who bought a two hundred and fifteen thousand dollars Lamborghini
(34:34):
that he's driven. I think he's had it a year.
I think he's driven it twice. He told me he
doesn't even need it, doesn't even really use it. Imagine
having two hundred and fifteen thousand dollars to blow on
something that you don't need, it didn't use, and you
know what, he's frigging miserable, miserable. Don't think that I
(34:54):
don't want to sound like the Beatles here of don't
think that money buys happiness. It really true. He does
not to have a family. If you have a spouse
you love, and Lord Willing loves you back, and you
have children who love you and you love them, you
have everything. Ab and I. I told you this when
(35:14):
we were living in an apartment, a small one, when
we were living in an extended stay hotel with two babies.
They were both under three, two kids under three. We
were living in an extended stay hotel at the time
of our lives. Laughs, the works. Remember that. All you
need is that and Relief Factor. Relief Factor you kind
(35:36):
of do need that too. It's one hundred percent drug free.
It's a supplement, a supplement that helps your body's natural
response to pain. It was created by doctors. But you
know how much I despise drugs. How do you deal
with pain? Either people ignore it or they take something
to mask it. You don't need to do that. Go
(36:00):
to relief Factor dot com and buy a three week
quick start, or go to one eight hundred number four
Relief Well, don't go call what eight hundred the number
four relief. Just try it for three weeks. Three weeks
is nineteen ninety five. That's less than a buck a day.
Just give it a try before you give up and
walk away from doing the things you love to do.
(36:22):
All right, all right, and now here's a headline by
go you know, you know the thing headlines We didn't
get to defense Giant Ryan Medal opens megaplant as europe rearms.
Uh oh, it's in Germany. That's generally not good. India,
(36:43):
once a solid US, ally grapples with Trump's fifty percent tariffs,
one of the highest in the world. Trump is really
going after India for buying up all that Russian oil.
He's doing what he feels like yes to do. I'm
not actually not questioning it. Maybe that that's the best
way to handle it. My only concern is if India
(37:03):
goes into the arms of China. That's about two billion people.
We have to contend with dozens of students attacked by
bees on the first day of school in Ashland. That's Ashland, Massachusetts.
How do you not like bees? I stuck a stick
in a hornet's nest one time, trying to trap them
in there. Well, Chris I thought I could outrun them.
Turns out I could not actually outrun them. That was
(37:25):
news to me. CNN reporters shocked as Chicago resident defends
Trump on crime. Yes, everybody in the media is shocked
that people don't want to be shot and murdered anyway.
We'll come back tomorrow and do it again, that's all.
