Speaker 1 (00:02):
Megan Kelly's here, Jedidiahbela's here. We have economic updates. We're
gonna pay tribute to the Vietnam veterans. Man, Is it
going to be a spicy show coming up tonight? And
I'm right? Why do I say there will be a
(00:23):
dictator that will rise on the right in the United
States of America. You've heard me say this before. You've
never heard me celebrate it, but you've heard me say
it's coming. Well, that's an outrageous thing to say. You're
telling me, Do you tell me we're gonna get a
Pinochet here, We're gonna get a Franco here? Yes we will,
Yes we will. Why? Because societies all societies large ones,
(00:45):
small ones, strong ones, weak ones, doesn't matter. Societies seek
a balance always. If something gets too far out of whack,
societies will themselves choose an extreme counter to that, seeking
a balance. It amazes me that more people can't see
(01:06):
what's happening right now in the United States of America.
The left, the communists, they're more rabid, more powerful now
than they've ever been. And because they're sick religious freaks
who worship destruction and death, they're accelerating everything destroying the economy,
destroying the family, destroying everything. They can't help themselves, so
(01:27):
just ravenous right now. And because they're sick freaks, they
can't see that there will be a response. There will be,
and it will be ugly, and I don't celebrate that.
Don't want to be clear about this. I want to
live in a country with a limited government, tiny federal government,
constitutional government, where I live free and you live free,
(01:50):
and the neighbor lives free. That's what I want. That's
my preference for this nation. It's probably what you want
to but we're not going to have that. And when
that day comes, when that dictator rises, whenever it is,
whoever it may be, they will only have themselves to blame.
If you want to know why, there's another great example why.
(02:12):
This headline from Reuters is probably the greatest example of
why some training nutcase walks into a Christian school and
starts executing eight and nine year old kids, and Reuters
runs with the headline former Christians school student kills three
children and three staff in a Nashville shooting. You cannot
(02:35):
weaponize yourself against other people without end. There will be
a response. It's going to be an ugly response, But
there will be one. These people hate you, they hate
your values. They're going to spend every moment attacking you.
And because people won't put up with that forever, we're
(02:57):
going to choose an alternative. Present it in himself. It's
asked about it being a hate crime, because his brain
is too melted to lie like he's always done. He's
flat out laughs. Do you believe that I have no idea?
(03:17):
God flully believe they were What do you saying that?
I probably don't that. No, I have no idea oky crime.
Some kids murdered. Okay, keep pressing. This ends ugly because
you can't stop yourself from pressing. It's warning you. And look,
(03:42):
I do get this. I get why Reuters would run
a headline and why there's you've seen so much of
this the past forty eight hours of blaming Christians and
Christians suck and whatnot. I understand it. I understand that
we live in a nation that has a new religion.
We do have a national religion, as every nation does.
We are the US of Gay Now it is our religion. Look,
(04:05):
Joe Biden talks about it. They all talk about it
all the time, even all women deserve to be represented. Moreover,
when we advance equality and racial justice where and invest
in young people, protect the LGBTQ plus individuals, our societies
are not only fairer, but they're stronger and more successful.
(04:26):
Joining me now, journalists and host of The Meghan Kelly Show,
which you can catch on serious XM Triumph Channel one
eleven every weekday at noon Eastern. You can also find
her at YouTube dot com slash Megan Kelly. I can't
believe they haven't banned her yet for actually speaking the truth,
all right, Megan, forget forgetting all the mental health issues
and things like that right now journalism, because you are
(04:48):
one of the few journalists left in this dagon country.
How did it get to such a despicable state where
you have headlines like this Reuters article blaming Christians for
the shooting. It's just it's gotten to such a state
that when someone calls it the enemy of the people
that starts to resonate, they look like the enemy of
the people most of the time now, Megan, they really do.
(05:09):
And I don't remember it being like that when I
was a kid, but maybe it was. No they've chosen
to lean in. I remember when Trump was saying that
during his campaign, thinking no, no, I mean they're getting there,
but no, and now they're really leaning in on it.
And it wasn't all during Trump if this happened, but
he really exploded it. I mean, him calling out the
(05:29):
media on their bias led them to embrace their bias.
You know. It happened very rapidly and in a very
disturbing way, and in a short short amount of time.
So it was already going this way, Jesse. I mean
I remember years ago before Trump, maybe twenty twenty eleven,
talking with Bernie Goldberg. Remember he used to come on
and be a media commentator on Fox, and he was
(05:50):
talking about sort of the policing of words that used
to be more about the policing of words back then,
and where the media would show, you know, like we're
better than you are. We'll tell you how to speak
properly so that you're not an offensive person. And then
the story of the day was you weren't allowed to
say the word midget. And Bernie said midget And I said,
you can't say midget and he said why not. I'm like,
I don't know whoever makes the rules that now says
you can't say that, and he said, midget midget, midget midget.
(06:14):
Then I had my own experience. You'll appreciate this as
my fellow Kelly, where I was. I was doing a
hit on Fox and Friends, and I said, and they
took him away in the patty wagon. It turns out
you can't say pattiwagon. I'm like, why can't say pattiwagon?
It's offensive to the Irish, in response to which I said,
but those are my people. We don't get offended on anything.
We're impossible to offend. But apparently it's about all the
patties who got drunk and get taken all right, So
(06:36):
those things were all happening, you know, ten fifteen years ago,
and then it got worse and worse and worse. And
then during Trump, who was, you know, the King of
I don't care how you want me to talk. I'm
going to talk the way I want. Everyone recoiled in
horror on steroids and leaned into wokeness, and the whole
movement was starting separate and apart from him. And now
(06:57):
we're worse than ever. And so they've not only embraced
their bias, they've embraced their elitism. And their perceived role
as the arbiters of all morality, which means governing people
like you and me. You know, the losers of the world,
the people who didn't go to Harvard, who wouldn't come
to their cocktail parties, and who are on you know,
things like the Internet as opposed to NBC Nightly News. Right,
(07:18):
those are the folks who think there are betters. And
I know because I can speak to this from the inside.
You know, the people with the glasses down at their
end of their nose, who just think they know better,
and they're going to tell Americans how to live where
it comes to their religion, how they feel about their country,
how they feel about their family, how they feel about
these very controversial issues, whether it's BLM or the crazed
(07:40):
transactivists who need to be fought, not embraced. We see
it at every turn, Megan. Did these people lead us
into being a nation that is pillow soft where people
get their feelings hurt by things like Patty Wagon or
are they the result of a nation that has gotten soft?
It blows me away. Maybe it's because I had a
(08:01):
very stern, hard father. I know people will find that shocking,
but it blows me away. How often I see even
the elite talk about their feelings and how this hurts
my feelings, and I'm triggered and my feeling gives a
crap about your feelings, but that the feelings lead this nation. Now,
what came first? Is a chicken or the egg. It's
a good question. I don't know the answer, but I
actually believe maybe it's my background that biases me. I
(08:24):
do think the media has a disgustingly unhealthy role in it.
I mean, I watched the media do this and push
it because they're in bed with these elite academic circles
where it's happening, like these college campuses where this all
got started, and they need the approval of those institutions.
They're dying for their children to go to those colleges.
(08:45):
They wish they had gone to those colleges if they didn't,
and most of them did. And that, you know, that
is a sort of cocktail party circuit that people like
Chief Justice Roberts are still on, which explains a lot
of what happened to him once he hit the US
Supreme Court bench. You know, they get sucked into this
very informed, very cultured, very snobbish group that actually thinks
(09:08):
they're better and then gets off. I'm putting down Middle
America actually last in their face because they think they're
too stupid to understand what's good for them. Look at
that infamous Don Lemon segment, you know, with Wajahat Ali
and Rick Wilson that went so viral during the Trump
where they were like Ukraine, you couldn't find Ukraine on
a map if they had a crane or whatever. It
(09:30):
was mocking them. So I think there's a contagion between
those two circles. And back to the point of journalism.
It's one of the reasons why, Jesse, we're supposed to
be adversarial with the people we cover. We're not supposed
to get in bed with the elite circles. We're supposed
to be antagonizing them, not loving them, and openly protecting them,
which is what a lot of the reporters today think
(09:50):
they're supposed to do. Vega. When I referenced things like
that Reuter's headline, it makes me. It makes me feel
like something terrible is coming, not just from the left,
from the right. Because societies always seek a balance. I
have said this several times I think there is a
right wing dictator coming in this nation at some point
(10:10):
in our future. Not tomorrow. You know, it's not Donald
Trump or whatever, but I believe it is coming because
when you continue to attack people the way the media does,
eventually you're going to have somebody rise who will say
things like I'm going to arrest that journalist and I'm
gonna throw them in prison for that opinion. That sounds crazy.
It's anti free speech, and it is crazy, and it
is anti free speech. But those words are not going
(10:32):
to fall on deaf ears one day, Megan, because of
this level of activism, there will be a response, and
probably a horrible one. Look at the number of videos
that circle around on Twitter right now of black people
committing crimes or violence. Why is that happening? It's such
an alarming rate. It's not that the black crime rate
(10:53):
has skyrocketed. It's that people are feeling uncomfortably defensive about
accusations being made about groups like white CIS males. White
CIS males are the problem. White supremacy is the fundamental
problem plaguing in America, and so people start tweeting videos
that they would never tweet before to say like are
they really? And it makes you uncomfortable, and I don't
(11:17):
think it's healthy. I don't do it myself. And I
see what I see why it's happening. You know. It's
if you push a group of people up against a
wall over and over and over and take away the
opportunity for fair play, not just from them but from
their children as well. Eventually they get tired of being
in the fetal position just saying I'm sorry, I'm bad,
(11:37):
I'm sorry, I'm bad, and they feel the need to
push back on the narrative, and then they feel the
need to fight back. That's what's so dangerous about this disgusting,
pernicious ideology. They're shoving down our throats when it comes
to yes, race, yes gender, but our country, our religion,
ourselves right that we are somehow fundamentally bad. Just looking
(11:59):
at you as a man and your skin color, you're
the problem. I can tell that before you open your mouth.
What does that do to a person? Where do they
think it's gonna land? Yeah? Yeah, there's always a pushback,
all right, Megan. One thing that confuses me is why
I even know who Gwyneth Paltrow is. But I do
know who this person is, and I know who she is.
(12:20):
I'm very sad to say it because I remember the
scented candle, and I'm not going to go into the
scent that I remember she put out some years back.
I just can't imagine wanting that scented candle, but I
remember this, and now she's on trial for something to
do with a ski instructor. What's happening. If you're not
watching this on YouTube, you are missing the opportunity to
(12:41):
laugh at the end of every day. I've been watching
every day because it makes me laugh. There's no one
to root for. She is completely unrelatable. She's showing up
in front of this Utah jury with a sixty five
thousand dollar necklace. Oh that's relatable. Brine Kelley and of
The Daily Mail said, nothing says relatable like wearing jewelry
that costs what a down payment on a home cost
(13:02):
in Utah. Right, She's the one who said, I just
have to be who I am. I can't act like
I make twenty five thousand dollars a year. She's got
her little monogrammed notebook there that costs two hundred and
fifty dollars. That's what you're seeing she wears her two
thousand dollars shoes every day in front of this jury.
She's the one who just last week was in the
news for my daily wellness program is I don't eat
(13:22):
before noon, then I have some bone broth, then I
go in my infrared sauna, then I work out for
an hour. Then I have I follow Paleo for dinner,
which just means some vegetables. Like, no one can relate
to this person. That's about four calories a day. So
now she gets sued by this guy named Terry Sanderson,
(13:43):
who says she crashed into him on the Deer Valley
ski resorts that she apparently took some private jet into
with her very rich husband and her kids a few
years ago. She says, it's the opposite way around. He
plowed into her and just you gotta see her on
the stands. Yes, he's talking about how his skis came
between my life. Said all I could think was this
a sexual assault? There was groaning as my legal panelist
(14:07):
and friend Jonas Bilboard said, who the hell s aexually
assaults somebody like that on a ski mountain, Like, oh
you're skiing here on yeah, let's go for it. I
was going to found for m to come up behind
her from behind your weekend. Oh that's not a thing.
So but the planiff is equally crazy and untrustworthy and
the star of this trial, the reason you must watch
(14:27):
it is the female attorney representing the plane of Terry Sanderson,
who's a man. The lawyers a woman who is playing
some weird game of either trying to become Gwyneth's best
friend even though she's adversarial to her, or what I
think is trying to ingratiate herself with a jury. How
tall are you, miss Palatrow? Almost five ten. I'm so jealous.
(14:50):
I'm only five one, but with these heels on, I'm
five five. Hugh Gwyneth, Oh they're really nice. Oh thank you.
Oh we've had about twenty five exchanges like that. They're
so cringey. We need America needs this. This is the trial.
We need Jesse for a little laughter, a little levity,
and a little moment we can stick back and say
I hate everyone. It's wonderful. I don't care how it
(15:12):
turns out. I gotta turn my wife onto this. This
is right up her. Ally, Megan, you're the best come
back to so good to see you. Jedediabela joins us. Next.
We got an all star lineup out here tonight. Before
we get to Jedediah, I don't need to explain to
you that there is a mental health crisis, a violence crisis.
(15:33):
We have a nation full of people who are deranged
and it's getting dangerous out there. You know that. I
want to tell you that are you ready? Are you
ready to live in a world where there's a chance
you're going to need to use your firearm to defend
yourself for the people you love. If you're not training,
you're not ready. I'll tell you I have many many
(15:55):
moments where I say to myself, am I ready? Am
I good enough? I fast enough, my deadly enough? But
how do you begin? What if you're a beginner, or
what if you're super experienced? How do you get better?
Mantis x is how you get better. It's what the
professionals use. You want to use, what the Greenbreys use,
they use manti sex. Want to use what the Marines use?
They use manti sex. It attaches to your weapon. It
(16:16):
allows you to practice wherever you are because it's dry
fire practice with feedback. They're putting you through drills, you
will see your confidence grow and your shooting improves. So
God forbid, if the worst happens and you need to
use it, you will be faster and deadlier than the
bad guy. Mantis x dot com. All right, mantis x
(16:38):
dot com, we'll be bad. Besides basically the marketing and protesting.
What else do you suggest? Well, it doesn't not a
miraculous what did you say, he's wait, execon, she's just
(17:03):
don't say that that. Oh you don't know, they'll pick
up a man and yeah, she's just kidding. It's well,
let me tell you joining me now Jedediah Beyla, host
of the Great Jedediahbila Alive or you've seen me, and
she's just awesome. And also she used to host the view.
I can't believe she actually went through this, Jedediah before
(17:25):
we even get into these people, How does someone like
you sit down with those hags every day and not
just yank out all you're here? Yeah, you know I
couldn't do it now. I could not do it now.
I was, you know, much more mellow back then, post COVID,
post craziness, post communist exposure, where we've really seen them
(17:46):
for who they are. There's there's just no chance because
I would have to call it out. I mean, And
by the way, that clip you showed very powerful because
Jane Fonda absolutely meant what she said. They were trying
to cover for her. You saw that, Oh she didn't
really mean it. She to every word she said. But
Joy knew that if she left that show, people were
going to people like us, We're going to say, oh,
inciting a little bit of violence there, Jane. We were
(18:08):
going to call her out and hold her accountable. And
so there was an attempt at a cover up. But
Jane is so committed to the communism and the destruction
that she dug her on Hall. She was like, I wasn't.
I actually wasn't. Kid You still that go on? Sick,
deeply sick, Janediah. How can you, no matter what your
belief system is or whatever it may be, how can
(18:29):
you want other human beings murdered using their own words
and not realize you're the bad guy? Because I have
no doubt that Jane Fonda thinks she's the good guy.
I'm sure she does. How's that possible if I ever
found myself on television or radio calling for anybody to
be murdered, I would have to do some soul searching
that night. Yet these people don't well true, left us
(18:53):
have no self awareness, and I also argue that she
left us have no conscience when it comes to other people.
They have no empathy. I mean, you saw one unfolded
the last couple of years. And by the way, if
you'll remember, I went on that show and I simply
just said that I had chosen not to get an
experimental injection, and I was They went nuts. They cited
(19:13):
me as misinformation. They screamed, they yelled, They didn't care
about what my doctor had said. They didn't care about
my medical history. They don't care about other people at all.
They are completely devoid of conscience. So what they really
want is the elimination of the other. They want an
elimination of people like you and me who are fighting
to protect people's freedom. They want us to disappear. And
(19:34):
they've gotten grotesque in the way they say it, and
less and less, you know, it's less secretive the approach
because they have media on their side largely, so people
get out and they say this doctor. Media is disgusting
these days. I mean, you saw what happen with Nashville
and just the media. The way they handled that story
was vile beyond measure, and you just see a lot
(19:55):
of cover up on their side. So there's a fearlessness
and they're getting very ostentat about the fact that they
want us eliminated, whether that's via mandate. You know, they
don't care if you lost your business. They don't care
if you got you know, something that was medically advised
against for you, and they don't care if you die
as long as it's for the cause and by the cause.
What they mean is the expansion of communist leadership, and
(20:18):
they think they're going to be the exception, right, they
think they're going to be at the elite and they're
going to be protected. They're just not that powerful. They
don't realize the systems coming for them too. That is
it always had. I had a good friend of mine
who said, and I'm paraphrasing here, he said, the only
thing I like about communism is all the communists Communism
is killed. And that is very, very true. I will
(20:39):
tell you that much, all right. Speaking of death, though,
which is a horrible thing, especially in the wake of
what happened this week, there are these calls all the
time from the people with the top, politicians, hags at
the view, all the elites. They're always putting out these words,
and there's this nutball bottom lifelong losers that now at
on these words, and normal people like us, we're in
(21:02):
the middle. What are we supposed to do about that?
When we're sandwiched on top and a bottom. It's very challenging.
And you know, I know you and I could probably
have a fantastic conversation about national divorce and what you
really do because you have to. There's a whole bunch
of people that are easily brainwashed right now in this country.
Then there's a whole bunch of people that know they're
(21:25):
being brainwashed, but they're like, oh, it's too much to
stand up against, it's too exhausting. I can't. I'm just
going to go line up for my seventeenth booster shop
because it's easier that way. They're part of this system.
It's too challenging to uproot their whole lives. And then
there's people that want to actively destroy everything. So what
you really have to do is, and I talk about
this and you do as well. I no longer believe
(21:47):
in the power of national politics to save any of us.
It's over. That is done. It's done. I do still believe, however,
in the power of local politics in certain regions to
salvage those regions. And I'm with you. I always people,
pick up, move, go to a place where you have
like minded people who will stand their ground, who don't
want to be violent, who don't want any of that stuff,
(22:09):
but really want to just preserve the values that built
this country, who want their kids to be able to
go to school and not you know, see a drag
show instead of you know, recess, and they just it's
just sane people. And I think right now we're talking
about those people Sandwich in the middle. Those are what
we used to call sane people, not mentally ill, not violent,
(22:30):
not you know, you know, woke, and people being afraid
to fall mentally ill. What it is. We have a
whole other problem with that too now, as we saw
unfold very sadly and very disturbingly in Nashville. But find sane,
like minded people and build with them. That's my best
advice that I could give. No Ada, be good, appreciate you,
(22:51):
come back soon. Thanks so much. We got more. We
still have to pay homage to the be A nom Bets.
And I'll talk about a little economic news next. That's
not that there's some ugly stuff out there, but we'll
go over it all. Let's talk about something wonderful. Well,
I don't know if you consider it wonderful. I've been
(23:13):
getting more and more guff from the wife because apparently
I greet the dog when I get home from doing
my show before I greet her. That's totally not true.
By the way the dog comes, he gets to me
before she does. If she wants to start running to
me and jumping on me the second I get home,
then she'll gate greet it first. It's a race woman,
(23:36):
and I do hope that lasts for a while. We
give our dog Fred rough greens every single day. We
used to just give it to him for breakfast, but
we watch such a difference in his digestive hell, such
a difference in his energy level. We watched. We saw
such a difference in him that now we give it
breakfast and dinner. Rough greens is all natural. It's the
only way that dog you love is going to get
(23:58):
vitamins and minerals and pro biotics and omega oils. The
dog food, there's nothing in it. The dog food we
give Fred, there's nothing in it. It's all dead. They
kill everything in dog food, even even the good dog food.
But when you start giving your dog rough Greens, you
just pour it on their food. You're going to see
a difference, and that puppy of yours might just be
jumping into your arms when you get home from work
(24:19):
for a couple of years longer than he would have otherwise.
That's why we do it. They have a free Jumpstart
trial bag right now. It's free. Go to Roughgreens dot
com slash jesse. All you pay for is the shipping.
Go try it. Look at the difference in your dog
Roughgreens dot com slash jesse. We'll be back all right.
(24:47):
Let's move on from all the culture war stuff that's
always going to be on the forefront of this show
because it matters a lot. But something else matters a lot,
your standard of living, the standard of living we've known
as a nation for the longest time. It occurs to me,
I was doing some reading on the other day about
(25:08):
the state of our economy and the state of the
middle class, and inflation and interest rates, all the economics stuff.
But it occurs to me as I look at my sons,
that there is a good chance they won't ever own
a home. Think about that, the next generation coming up,
for a variety of reasons, not their fault, for a
(25:28):
variety of reasons, it's going to be very, very, very
difficult to purchase a home. I'm not saying you have
to own a home or don't own a home and
nothing home with an apartment, but it is pretty revealing
about where we are as a nation. And it's wild
to think that the coming generations will have a lower
(25:50):
standard of living than we have because we've never experienced that.
I've never experienced that you probably, no matter your age,
you've never experienced that the standard of living has gone up.
Those days look like they're coming to an end. Sixty
two percent of consumers in this country are living paycheck
(26:11):
to paycheck. Sixty two percent, that's according to Lending Club.
That's wild, and so that means there's a great chance,
as you're watching me right now, that's you that you're
living paycheck to paycheck. And it's obvious why with inflation
going up the way it is, you have to spend
(26:33):
more in more money to try to maintain the same
standard of living you've grown accustomed to. That's a horrible
place to be. And maybe even darker than that, is
this where we're going. The bubble hasn't actually popped yet.
We've seen it slowly get worse, and slowly get worse,
(26:55):
and slowly get worse. But the bubble hasn't popped, and
it looks like it's about two and well. Peter Schiff
had some heavy words for us. They have created another
financial crisis, which is something I've been warning about for years.
And you know, the media is reluctant to call this
a financial crisis. They keep saying it's a banking crisis.
(27:16):
The financial crisis of two thousand and eight was a
banking crisis. Nobody wants to say what it is because
they don't want to invoke memories and comparisons to two
thousand and eight. But this is a sequel to two
thousand and eight, and like all sequels, this one's going
to be worse. I remember two thousand and eight like
it was yesterday. I remember it would hit me so
(27:38):
much because I was doing a bunch of traveling for work.
I was working construction back then. I was doing a
bunch of traveling, and it would hit me that I
watched all these strip malls along the highways where you'd go.
They were always full, always full of shops, right, And
then I remember I would watch them just slowly empty,
and soon there would be entire strip malls empty. People's elpstream,
(28:00):
small businesses gone, livelihoods destroyed. It was an ugly thing.
And it's not just that we're living paycheck to paycheck.
Inflation is bad. We're going into something that's really really ugly.
It's that the people running the country they don't care
at all. They don't care at all. Jill Biden actually
(28:23):
proposed the budget that would bloodsuck four point seven trillion
dollars in new taxes out of the taxpayer. So as
the taxpayer is suffering and watching his standard of living
go down, the people who run this nation are looking
at the taxpayer like a hungry wolf. Janet Yellen basically
(28:46):
had to admit it the fact that the president's proposed
budget proposes four point seven thillion dollars in new taxes.
It does propos significant additional taxes. Yes, four point seven trillion,
(29:07):
something like that, Yes, oh, something like that. Oh okay,
And Joe Biden and his administration because they don't have
any heart for the American people. They don't care about
you living paycheck to paycheck. They'll just simply go to
the camera and lie repeatedly and act like everything's hunky dory.
(29:29):
Put all together, it's a plan to invest in America,
invest in Americans, give them opportunity to invest in ourselves.
And it's working. It's working. Well, that's news to the
sixty two percent of Americans who have to spend every
dime of every paycheck just to get themselves through to
(29:50):
the next paycheck. That's the craziest thing. The people in
charge are looking at us thinking, oh, this is going well,
and what are those I mean paying taxes. I just
had to pay my quarterly taxes. I'm still mad about that.
And why am I mad about that? Well, as you struggle,
as the financial situation gets worse, the money the government
(30:11):
is blood sucking out of your paycheck is going to
things like well this, Oh that sounds wonderful, Oh, but
(30:39):
it's actually more than that. As you are struggling and
living paycheck to paycheck, you can take heart that the
government is stealing twenty five percent of what you make
to pay for climate church. President Biden having signed the
Inflation Reduction Act, which is the most ambitious climate legislation
in history, but still is only projected to get at
(31:02):
production and emissions by the end of the decade, and
the US has promised a fifty percent reduction by the
end of the decade. Well, we're doing a lot more
than just the IRA. The IRA is a package that
in and of itself can get forty But in addition
to that, the President is issuing executive orders. There'll be
(31:25):
changes on automobile, on light truck, heavy truck, heavy duty,
a number of initiatives that are being taken by states,
subnational cities. Oh good, that makes me feel better. All right,
enough of that. You know what we're gonna do. I'm
going to pay homage to the Vietnam bets next. Before
we get to that. Speaking of veterans, let's talk about
(31:49):
the greatest cup coffee I've ever had in my life,
Bone Front Coffee. Now, it happens to have been started
by a Navy seal to honor the Navy Seals, but
that one is just a side benefit of the fact
that Seattle's best coffee you've heard of. It obviously one
of their founders. He's the one making the bone Frog blends.
(32:11):
This isn't just another one of these coffee companies. Oh,
buy our veteran coffee. It's the greatest cup of coffee
I've ever had. I have to hold myself back and
keep myself to two cups a day because Bonefrog Coffee
is doing everything it can do to break my two
cup of day pledge. I just want to keep drinking,
and I want it white right now. Ten percent off subscriptions.
(32:34):
You want the best tasting cup of coffee you've ever
had in your life, go get a subscription to bone
Frog Coffee. Go to Bonefrog Coffee dot com. Promo code Jesse.
You email me and let me know if that's not
the best cup you've ever had in your life. Bone
Frog Coffee dot Com promo code Jesse. We'll be back.
(33:00):
Sometimes I get sad about some things. Let me let
me explain. It's Vietnam Veterans Memorial Day today. It's a
day we honor Vietnam veterans. Everyone who fought there, We
honor them. And it occurs to me they're getting old.
Hear me out, hear me on them. When I was
(33:21):
a kid. I think I was fifteen years old, fifteen,
sixteen years old. I got a job at a golf
course and I was just cleaning golf clubs, running around,
just doing drunt work at the golf course. And I
got to know this guy who was a veteran of
Pearl Harbor and part of the reason I fell in
love with histories. This guy, this old gentleman, would sit
(33:42):
down with me and he would tell me stories about
life in the Navy, about that day in Pearl Harbor,
and I would just I was so fascinated and taken
in by the amount of wisdom this guy not only
had the amount of wisdom he would pass on to me.
And now World War Two, they're all dying. Time is
(34:03):
what it is. Age is what it is. They're all dying.
And I think about that when it comes through our
Vietnam veterans now, because in my mind, they're still fifty
years old. That's what he's fifties. It's fun. No, they're not, man,
they're seventy. They're seventy five. They're getting older. And these
guys did something so incredible for their nation. One, they
(34:27):
didn't get the respect they deserved from their nation two.
They fought in a war that was led by morons
politically generals. They were all morons. These guys went over
there and went through hell on Earth with bad leadership.
And that is so incredible. And they have so many
valuable lessons. They can teach us about everything about life,
(34:50):
about everything. I honor those guys, man, And they're getting older,
and it bums me out. So allow me just to
say this for Vietnam Veterans Day. Do you know one
in your life, even an acquaintance, Why don't you go
reach out, text message, phone call, Why don't you reach out,
(35:14):
meeting for a cup of coffee, meeting for a beer,
sit down, spend five ten minutes with them, because once
they're gone, we can't replicate that kind of wisdom. We
can't replicate those stories that they can tell us, the
lessons they can teach us about life, about government, about brotherhood,
about so many things. These guys are the very best
(35:38):
of us. And let's also do remember this. They didn't
come home after being treated poorly by their country. They
didn't come home and hate America for it. They were
still patriots to the bone. They watched their fathers go
off to World War two, and so they signed up
(36:00):
to do what they felt was honorable, to fight for
the United States of America the way Dad did. And
the United States of America's governments did these guys so
so wrong. But they still came home and they flew
their flags. And you still see them now walking around
the grocery store, Vietnam veteran ball cap on. And isn't
(36:20):
that something that's freaking cool? Man? I think it's awesome.
Honor these guys today. Send a text message right now,
make a phone call, send a text, go sit down
with them. Once they're gone. We can't bring them back,
all right, all right now, Something else we do need
to keep in mind is we have a fresh set
(36:41):
of veterans with issues now PTSD issues, issues that come
when you go spend time in combat. I want you
and I to be more committed than we have been
to helping them come back into the world. It doesn't
just happen automatically. It doesn't just don't. You don't just
(37:04):
get back from Afghanistan Iraq, take off the uniform, put
on a suit jacket and you're fine. You're not fine.
It's hard to be a dad, a son, a brother,
an employee. An employee, it's hard to just be a
normal person after going through that. You need help. These
guys need help, but they're not getting the help they need.
(37:24):
Definitely not getting it from the VA. Get a bottle
of pills and an atta boy. That doesn't help. Boulder
Crest is finding them and helping them come back into
the world. Is there anything more blessed we can do
for these guys than to give them a life after
they went and served for us. It's called Operations Struggle.
(37:44):
Go give whatever you can help these guys out. It's
a wonderful, wonderful program. Boulder Crest dot org. All right,
Bouldercrest dot org. We'll be back. All right, It's time
for a dome and dumber version of light in the
(38:05):
mood tonight. There's just too much good stuff out there
as we pay homage to the Commander in chief and
as vice President. Before we get to that, let's do
this really quickly. You know, it's wild about gold and silver.
Precious metals is the history of it, so you know
the future of it. For instance, if I was to
(38:28):
hand you a chest full of gold or silver and
then put you in a time machine and teleport you
five thousand years into the past, you would still have
incredible wealth. And therefore, if I put you five thousand
years in the future with that same chest of gold
and silver, you will have incredible value. Can the stock
(38:48):
market say that? Do you have gold and silver in
your four one k and ira? You worked hard for
that money. You're going to give it all back when
the bubble pops? Do you have physical gold and silver
in your hands? For gold can make that happen too.
They handle all this, and they handle it's so easy.
It's just wonderful working with them. Call eight three three
(39:09):
nine five gold and get wealth that lasts. Wealth you
pass down to your children and their children and their
children after them. Eight three three nine nine five gold.
All right, all right, President of the United States of
America has to be told where to stand down here, yes, sir,
(39:29):
down the ramp, and we have people lined up on
the left over here, some union leaders and workers. Your
mark is going to be the blue one to the left.
You've got a blue mark, and that's okay. I go,
(39:49):
I'll stand my blue mark, and then I'm gonna say
load twenty yees, sir. I'm I'll help you get started.
That's the leader of the free world. That's the commander
in chief. But don't worry. At least he's got a
good backup. But the creative work that is happening on
(40:13):
this continent as represented glad to work that is happening
here and on it's extraordinary in terms of the international
global indoct Now this is not a new phenomena, but
it is something that with all of the current excitements
(40:34):
about the evolution of culture and music in terms that
is very significant. What is happening here is changing the
way people kind of enjoy themselves. I'll see them all
Megan Kelly's here, Jedidiahbela's here. We have economic updates. We're
gonna pay tribute to the Vietnam veterans. Man, Is it
going to be a spicy show coming up tonight? And
I'm right? Why do I say there will be a
(00:23):
dictator that will rise on the right in the United
States of America. You've heard me say this before. You've
never heard me celebrate it, but you've heard me say
it's coming. Well, that's an outrageous thing to say. You're
telling me, Do you tell me we're gonna get a
Pinochet here, We're gonna get a Franco here? Yes we will,
Yes we will. Why? Because societies all societies large ones,
(00:45):
small ones, strong ones, weak ones, doesn't matter. Societies seek
a balance always. If something gets too far out of whack,
societies will themselves choose an extreme counter to that, seeking
a balance. It amazes me that more people can't see
(01:06):
what's happening right now in the United States of America.
The left, the communists, they're more rabid, more powerful now
than they've ever been. And because they're sick religious freaks
who worship destruction and death, they're accelerating everything destroying the economy,
destroying the family, destroying everything. They can't help themselves, so
(01:27):
just ravenous right now. And because they're sick freaks, they
can't see that there will be a response. There will be,
and it will be ugly, and I don't celebrate that.
Don't want to be clear about this. I want to
live in a country with a limited government, tiny federal government,
constitutional government, where I live free and you live free,
(01:50):
and the neighbor lives free. That's what I want. That's
my preference for this nation. It's probably what you want
to but we're not going to have that. And when
that day comes, when that dictator rises, whenever it is,
whoever it may be, they will only have themselves to blame.
If you want to know why, there's another great example why.
(02:12):
This headline from Reuters is probably the greatest example of
why some training nutcase walks into a Christian school and
starts executing eight and nine year old kids, and Reuters
runs with the headline former Christians school student kills three
children and three staff in a Nashville shooting. You cannot
(02:35):
weaponize yourself against other people without end. There will be
a response. It's going to be an ugly response, But
there will be one. These people hate you, they hate
your values. They're going to spend every moment attacking you.
And because people won't put up with that forever, we're
(02:57):
going to choose an alternative. Present it in himself. It's
asked about it being a hate crime, because his brain
is too melted to lie like he's always done. He's
flat out laughs. Do you believe that I have no idea?
(03:17):
God flully believe they were What do you saying that?
I probably don't that. No, I have no idea oky crime.
Some kids murdered. Okay, keep pressing. This ends ugly because
you can't stop yourself from pressing. It's warning you. And look,
(03:42):
I do get this. I get why Reuters would run
a headline and why there's you've seen so much of
this the past forty eight hours of blaming Christians and
Christians suck and whatnot. I understand it. I understand that
we live in a nation that has a new religion.
We do have a national religion, as every nation does.
We are the US of Gay Now it is our religion. Look,
(04:05):
Joe Biden talks about it. They all talk about it
all the time, even all women deserve to be represented. Moreover,
when we advance equality and racial justice where and invest
in young people, protect the LGBTQ plus individuals, our societies
are not only fairer, but they're stronger and more successful.
(04:26):
Joining me now, journalists and host of The Meghan Kelly Show,
which you can catch on serious XM Triumph Channel one
eleven every weekday at noon Eastern. You can also find
her at YouTube dot com slash Megan Kelly. I can't
believe they haven't banned her yet for actually speaking the truth,
all right, Megan, forget forgetting all the mental health issues
and things like that right now journalism, because you are
(04:48):
one of the few journalists left in this dagon country.
How did it get to such a despicable state where
you have headlines like this Reuters article blaming Christians for
the shooting. It's just it's gotten to such a state
that when someone calls it the enemy of the people
that starts to resonate, they look like the enemy of
the people most of the time now, Megan, they really do.
(05:09):
And I don't remember it being like that when I
was a kid, but maybe it was. No they've chosen
to lean in. I remember when Trump was saying that
during his campaign, thinking no, no, I mean they're getting there,
but no, and now they're really leaning in on it.
And it wasn't all during Trump if this happened, but
he really exploded it. I mean, him calling out the
(05:29):
media on their bias led them to embrace their bias.
You know. It happened very rapidly and in a very
disturbing way, and in a short short amount of time.
So it was already going this way, Jesse. I mean
I remember years ago before Trump, maybe twenty twenty eleven,
talking with Bernie Goldberg. Remember he used to come on
and be a media commentator on Fox, and he was
(05:50):
talking about sort of the policing of words that used
to be more about the policing of words back then,
and where the media would show, you know, like we're
better than you are. We'll tell you how to speak
properly so that you're not an offensive person. And then
the story of the day was you weren't allowed to
say the word midget. And Bernie said midget And I said,
you can't say midget and he said why not. I'm like,
I don't know whoever makes the rules that now says
you can't say that, and he said, midget midget, midget midget.
(06:14):
Then I had my own experience. You'll appreciate this as
my fellow Kelly, where I was. I was doing a
hit on Fox and Friends, and I said, and they
took him away in the patty wagon. It turns out
you can't say pattiwagon. I'm like, why can't say pattiwagon?
It's offensive to the Irish, in response to which I said,
but those are my people. We don't get offended on anything.
We're impossible to offend. But apparently it's about all the
patties who got drunk and get taken all right, So
(06:36):
those things were all happening, you know, ten fifteen years ago,
and then it got worse and worse and worse. And
then during Trump, who was, you know, the King of
I don't care how you want me to talk. I'm
going to talk the way I want. Everyone recoiled in
horror on steroids and leaned into wokeness, and the whole
movement was starting separate and apart from him. And now
(06:57):
we're worse than ever. And so they've not only embraced
their bias, they've embraced their elitism. And their perceived role
as the arbiters of all morality, which means governing people
like you and me. You know, the losers of the world,
the people who didn't go to Harvard, who wouldn't come
to their cocktail parties, and who are on you know,
things like the Internet as opposed to NBC Nightly News. Right,
(07:18):
those are the folks who think there are betters. And
I know because I can speak to this from the inside.
You know, the people with the glasses down at their
end of their nose, who just think they know better,
and they're going to tell Americans how to live where
it comes to their religion, how they feel about their country,
how they feel about their family, how they feel about
these very controversial issues, whether it's BLM or the crazed
(07:40):
transactivists who need to be fought, not embraced. We see
it at every turn, Megan. Did these people lead us
into being a nation that is pillow soft where people
get their feelings hurt by things like Patty Wagon or
are they the result of a nation that has gotten soft?
It blows me away. Maybe it's because I had a
(08:01):
very stern, hard father. I know people will find that shocking,
but it blows me away. How often I see even
the elite talk about their feelings and how this hurts
my feelings, and I'm triggered and my feeling gives a
crap about your feelings, but that the feelings lead this nation. Now,
what came first? Is a chicken or the egg. It's
a good question. I don't know the answer, but I
actually believe maybe it's my background that biases me. I
(08:24):
do think the media has a disgustingly unhealthy role in it.
I mean, I watched the media do this and push
it because they're in bed with these elite academic circles
where it's happening, like these college campuses where this all
got started, and they need the approval of those institutions.
They're dying for their children to go to those colleges.
(08:45):
They wish they had gone to those colleges if they didn't,
and most of them did. And that, you know, that
is a sort of cocktail party circuit that people like
Chief Justice Roberts are still on, which explains a lot
of what happened to him once he hit the US
Supreme Court bench. You know, they get sucked into this
very informed, very cultured, very snobbish group that actually thinks
(09:08):
they're better and then gets off. I'm putting down Middle
America actually last in their face because they think they're
too stupid to understand what's good for them. Look at
that infamous Don Lemon segment, you know, with Wajahat Ali
and Rick Wilson that went so viral during the Trump
where they were like Ukraine, you couldn't find Ukraine on
a map if they had a crane or whatever. It
(09:30):
was mocking them. So I think there's a contagion between
those two circles. And back to the point of journalism.
It's one of the reasons why, Jesse, we're supposed to
be adversarial with the people we cover. We're not supposed
to get in bed with the elite circles. We're supposed
to be antagonizing them, not loving them, and openly protecting them,
which is what a lot of the reporters today think
(09:50):
they're supposed to do. Vega. When I referenced things like
that Reuter's headline, it makes me. It makes me feel
like something terrible is coming, not just from the left,
from the right. Because societies always seek a balance. I
have said this several times I think there is a
right wing dictator coming in this nation at some point
(10:10):
in our future. Not tomorrow. You know, it's not Donald
Trump or whatever, but I believe it is coming because
when you continue to attack people the way the media does,
eventually you're going to have somebody rise who will say
things like I'm going to arrest that journalist and I'm
gonna throw them in prison for that opinion. That sounds crazy.
It's anti free speech, and it is crazy, and it
is anti free speech. But those words are not going
(10:32):
to fall on deaf ears one day, Megan, because of
this level of activism, there will be a response, and
probably a horrible one. Look at the number of videos
that circle around on Twitter right now of black people
committing crimes or violence. Why is that happening? It's such
an alarming rate. It's not that the black crime rate
(10:53):
has skyrocketed. It's that people are feeling uncomfortably defensive about
accusations being made about groups like white CIS males. White
CIS males are the problem. White supremacy is the fundamental
problem plaguing in America, and so people start tweeting videos
that they would never tweet before to say like are
they really? And it makes you uncomfortable, and I don't
(11:17):
think it's healthy. I don't do it myself. And I
see what I see why it's happening. You know. It's
if you push a group of people up against a
wall over and over and over and take away the
opportunity for fair play, not just from them but from
their children as well. Eventually they get tired of being
in the fetal position just saying I'm sorry, I'm bad,
(11:37):
I'm sorry, I'm bad, and they feel the need to
push back on the narrative, and then they feel the
need to fight back. That's what's so dangerous about this disgusting,
pernicious ideology. They're shoving down our throats when it comes
to yes, race, yes gender, but our country, our religion,
ourselves right that we are somehow fundamentally bad. Just looking
(11:59):
at you as a man and your skin color, you're
the problem. I can tell that before you open your mouth.
What does that do to a person? Where do they
think it's gonna land? Yeah? Yeah, there's always a pushback,
all right, Megan. One thing that confuses me is why
I even know who Gwyneth Paltrow is. But I do
know who this person is, and I know who she is.
(12:20):
I'm very sad to say it because I remember the
scented candle, and I'm not going to go into the
scent that I remember she put out some years back.
I just can't imagine wanting that scented candle, but I
remember this, and now she's on trial for something to
do with a ski instructor. What's happening. If you're not
watching this on YouTube, you are missing the opportunity to
(12:41):
laugh at the end of every day. I've been watching
every day because it makes me laugh. There's no one
to root for. She is completely unrelatable. She's showing up
in front of this Utah jury with a sixty five
thousand dollar necklace. Oh that's relatable. Brine Kelley and of
The Daily Mail said, nothing says relatable like wearing jewelry
that costs what a down payment on a home cost
(13:02):
in Utah. Right, She's the one who said, I just
have to be who I am. I can't act like
I make twenty five thousand dollars a year. She's got
her little monogrammed notebook there that costs two hundred and
fifty dollars. That's what you're seeing she wears her two
thousand dollars shoes every day in front of this jury.
She's the one who just last week was in the
news for my daily wellness program is I don't eat
(13:22):
before noon, then I have some bone broth, then I
go in my infrared sauna, then I work out for
an hour. Then I have I follow Paleo for dinner,
which just means some vegetables. Like, no one can relate
to this person. That's about four calories a day. So
now she gets sued by this guy named Terry Sanderson,
(13:43):
who says she crashed into him on the Deer Valley
ski resorts that she apparently took some private jet into
with her very rich husband and her kids a few
years ago. She says, it's the opposite way around. He
plowed into her and just you gotta see her on
the stands. Yes, he's talking about how his skis came
between my life. Said all I could think was this
a sexual assault? There was groaning as my legal panelist
(14:07):
and friend Jonas Bilboard said, who the hell s aexually
assaults somebody like that on a ski mountain, Like, oh
you're skiing here on yeah, let's go for it. I
was going to found for m to come up behind
her from behind your weekend. Oh that's not a thing.
So but the planiff is equally crazy and untrustworthy and
the star of this trial, the reason you must watch
(14:27):
it is the female attorney representing the plane of Terry Sanderson,
who's a man. The lawyers a woman who is playing
some weird game of either trying to become Gwyneth's best
friend even though she's adversarial to her, or what I
think is trying to ingratiate herself with a jury. How
tall are you, miss Palatrow? Almost five ten. I'm so jealous.
(14:50):
I'm only five one, but with these heels on, I'm
five five. Hugh Gwyneth, Oh they're really nice. Oh thank you.
Oh we've had about twenty five exchanges like that. They're
so cringey. We need America needs this. This is the trial.
We need Jesse for a little laughter, a little levity,
and a little moment we can stick back and say
I hate everyone. It's wonderful. I don't care how it
(15:12):
turns out. I gotta turn my wife onto this. This
is right up her. Ally, Megan, you're the best come
back to so good to see you. Jedediabela joins us. Next.
We got an all star lineup out here tonight. Before
we get to Jedediah, I don't need to explain to
you that there is a mental health crisis, a violence crisis.
(15:33):
We have a nation full of people who are deranged
and it's getting dangerous out there. You know that. I
want to tell you that are you ready? Are you
ready to live in a world where there's a chance
you're going to need to use your firearm to defend
yourself for the people you love. If you're not training,
you're not ready. I'll tell you I have many many
(15:55):
moments where I say to myself, am I ready? Am
I good enough? I fast enough, my deadly enough? But
how do you begin? What if you're a beginner, or
what if you're super experienced? How do you get better?
Mantis x is how you get better. It's what the
professionals use. You want to use, what the Greenbreys use,
they use manti sex. Want to use what the Marines use?
They use manti sex. It attaches to your weapon. It
(16:16):
allows you to practice wherever you are because it's dry
fire practice with feedback. They're putting you through drills, you
will see your confidence grow and your shooting improves. So
God forbid, if the worst happens and you need to
use it, you will be faster and deadlier than the
bad guy. Mantis x dot com. All right, mantis x
(16:38):
dot com, we'll be bad. Besides basically the marketing and protesting.
What else do you suggest? Well, it doesn't not a
miraculous what did you say, he's wait, execon, she's just
(17:03):
don't say that that. Oh you don't know, they'll pick
up a man and yeah, she's just kidding. It's well,
let me tell you joining me now Jedediah Beyla, host
of the Great Jedediahbila Alive or you've seen me, and
she's just awesome. And also she used to host the view.
I can't believe she actually went through this, Jedediah before
(17:25):
we even get into these people, How does someone like
you sit down with those hags every day and not
just yank out all you're here? Yeah, you know I
couldn't do it now. I could not do it now.
I was, you know, much more mellow back then, post COVID,
post craziness, post communist exposure, where we've really seen them
(17:46):
for who they are. There's there's just no chance because
I would have to call it out. I mean, And
by the way, that clip you showed very powerful because
Jane Fonda absolutely meant what she said. They were trying
to cover for her. You saw that, Oh she didn't
really mean it. She to every word she said. But
Joy knew that if she left that show, people were
going to people like us, We're going to say, oh,
inciting a little bit of violence there, Jane. We were
(18:08):
going to call her out and hold her accountable. And
so there was an attempt at a cover up. But
Jane is so committed to the communism and the destruction
that she dug her on Hall. She was like, I wasn't.
I actually wasn't. Kid You still that go on? Sick,
deeply sick, Janediah. How can you, no matter what your
belief system is or whatever it may be, how can
(18:29):
you want other human beings murdered using their own words
and not realize you're the bad guy? Because I have
no doubt that Jane Fonda thinks she's the good guy.
I'm sure she does. How's that possible if I ever
found myself on television or radio calling for anybody to
be murdered, I would have to do some soul searching
that night. Yet these people don't well true, left us
(18:53):
have no self awareness, and I also argue that she
left us have no conscience when it comes to other people.
They have no empathy. I mean, you saw one unfolded
the last couple of years. And by the way, if
you'll remember, I went on that show and I simply
just said that I had chosen not to get an
experimental injection, and I was They went nuts. They cited
(19:13):
me as misinformation. They screamed, they yelled, They didn't care
about what my doctor had said. They didn't care about
my medical history. They don't care about other people at all.
They are completely devoid of conscience. So what they really
want is the elimination of the other. They want an
elimination of people like you and me who are fighting
to protect people's freedom. They want us to disappear. And
(19:34):
they've gotten grotesque in the way they say it, and
less and less, you know, it's less secretive the approach
because they have media on their side largely, so people
get out and they say this doctor. Media is disgusting
these days. I mean, you saw what happen with Nashville
and just the media. The way they handled that story
was vile beyond measure, and you just see a lot
(19:55):
of cover up on their side. So there's a fearlessness
and they're getting very ostentat about the fact that they
want us eliminated, whether that's via mandate. You know, they
don't care if you lost your business. They don't care
if you got you know, something that was medically advised
against for you, and they don't care if you die
as long as it's for the cause and by the cause.
What they mean is the expansion of communist leadership, and
(20:18):
they think they're going to be the exception, right, they
think they're going to be at the elite and they're
going to be protected. They're just not that powerful. They
don't realize the systems coming for them too. That is
it always had. I had a good friend of mine
who said, and I'm paraphrasing here, he said, the only
thing I like about communism is all the communists Communism
is killed. And that is very, very true. I will
(20:39):
tell you that much, all right. Speaking of death, though,
which is a horrible thing, especially in the wake of
what happened this week, there are these calls all the
time from the people with the top, politicians, hags at
the view, all the elites. They're always putting out these words,
and there's this nutball bottom lifelong losers that now at
on these words, and normal people like us, we're in
(21:02):
the middle. What are we supposed to do about that?
When we're sandwiched on top and a bottom. It's very challenging.
And you know, I know you and I could probably
have a fantastic conversation about national divorce and what you
really do because you have to. There's a whole bunch
of people that are easily brainwashed right now in this country.
Then there's a whole bunch of people that know they're
(21:25):
being brainwashed, but they're like, oh, it's too much to
stand up against, it's too exhausting. I can't. I'm just
going to go line up for my seventeenth booster shop
because it's easier that way. They're part of this system.
It's too challenging to uproot their whole lives. And then
there's people that want to actively destroy everything. So what
you really have to do is, and I talk about
this and you do as well. I no longer believe
(21:47):
in the power of national politics to save any of us.
It's over. That is done. It's done. I do still believe, however,
in the power of local politics in certain regions to
salvage those regions. And I'm with you. I always people,
pick up, move, go to a place where you have
like minded people who will stand their ground, who don't
want to be violent, who don't want any of that stuff,
(22:09):
but really want to just preserve the values that built
this country, who want their kids to be able to
go to school and not you know, see a drag
show instead of you know, recess, and they just it's
just sane people. And I think right now we're talking
about those people Sandwich in the middle. Those are what
we used to call sane people, not mentally ill, not violent,
(22:30):
not you know, you know, woke, and people being afraid
to fall mentally ill. What it is. We have a
whole other problem with that too now, as we saw
unfold very sadly and very disturbingly in Nashville. But find sane,
like minded people and build with them. That's my best
advice that I could give. No Ada, be good, appreciate you,
(22:51):
come back soon. Thanks so much. We got more. We
still have to pay homage to the be A nom Bets.
And I'll talk about a little economic news next. That's
not that there's some ugly stuff out there, but we'll
go over it all. Let's talk about something wonderful. Well,
I don't know if you consider it wonderful. I've been
(23:13):
getting more and more guff from the wife because apparently
I greet the dog when I get home from doing
my show before I greet her. That's totally not true.
By the way the dog comes, he gets to me
before she does. If she wants to start running to
me and jumping on me the second I get home,
then she'll gate greet it first. It's a race woman,
(23:36):
and I do hope that lasts for a while. We
give our dog Fred rough greens every single day. We
used to just give it to him for breakfast, but
we watch such a difference in his digestive hell, such
a difference in his energy level. We watched. We saw
such a difference in him that now we give it
breakfast and dinner. Rough greens is all natural. It's the
only way that dog you love is going to get
(23:58):
vitamins and minerals and pro biotics and omega oils. The
dog food, there's nothing in it. The dog food we
give Fred, there's nothing in it. It's all dead. They
kill everything in dog food, even even the good dog food.
But when you start giving your dog rough Greens, you
just pour it on their food. You're going to see
a difference, and that puppy of yours might just be
jumping into your arms when you get home from work
(24:19):
for a couple of years longer than he would have otherwise.
That's why we do it. They have a free Jumpstart
trial bag right now. It's free. Go to Roughgreens dot
com slash jesse. All you pay for is the shipping.
Go try it. Look at the difference in your dog
Roughgreens dot com slash jesse. We'll be back all right.
(24:47):
Let's move on from all the culture war stuff that's
always going to be on the forefront of this show
because it matters a lot. But something else matters a lot,
your standard of living, the standard of living we've known
as a nation for the longest time. It occurs to me,
I was doing some reading on the other day about
(25:08):
the state of our economy and the state of the
middle class, and inflation and interest rates, all the economics stuff.
But it occurs to me as I look at my sons,
that there is a good chance they won't ever own
a home. Think about that, the next generation coming up,
for a variety of reasons, not their fault, for a
(25:28):
variety of reasons, it's going to be very, very, very
difficult to purchase a home. I'm not saying you have
to own a home or don't own a home and
nothing home with an apartment, but it is pretty revealing
about where we are as a nation. And it's wild
to think that the coming generations will have a lower
(25:50):
standard of living than we have because we've never experienced that.
I've never experienced that you probably, no matter your age,
you've never experienced that the standard of living has gone up.
Those days look like they're coming to an end. Sixty
two percent of consumers in this country are living paycheck
(26:11):
to paycheck. Sixty two percent, that's according to Lending Club.
That's wild, and so that means there's a great chance,
as you're watching me right now, that's you that you're
living paycheck to paycheck. And it's obvious why with inflation
going up the way it is, you have to spend
(26:33):
more in more money to try to maintain the same
standard of living you've grown accustomed to. That's a horrible
place to be. And maybe even darker than that, is
this where we're going. The bubble hasn't actually popped yet.
We've seen it slowly get worse, and slowly get worse,
(26:55):
and slowly get worse. But the bubble hasn't popped, and
it looks like it's about two and well. Peter Schiff
had some heavy words for us. They have created another
financial crisis, which is something I've been warning about for years.
And you know, the media is reluctant to call this
a financial crisis. They keep saying it's a banking crisis.
(27:16):
The financial crisis of two thousand and eight was a
banking crisis. Nobody wants to say what it is because
they don't want to invoke memories and comparisons to two
thousand and eight. But this is a sequel to two
thousand and eight, and like all sequels, this one's going
to be worse. I remember two thousand and eight like
it was yesterday. I remember it would hit me so
(27:38):
much because I was doing a bunch of traveling for work.
I was working construction back then. I was doing a
bunch of traveling, and it would hit me that I
watched all these strip malls along the highways where you'd go.
They were always full, always full of shops, right, And
then I remember I would watch them just slowly empty,
and soon there would be entire strip malls empty. People's elpstream,
(28:00):
small businesses gone, livelihoods destroyed. It was an ugly thing.
And it's not just that we're living paycheck to paycheck.
Inflation is bad. We're going into something that's really really ugly.
It's that the people running the country they don't care
at all. They don't care at all. Jill Biden actually
(28:23):
proposed the budget that would bloodsuck four point seven trillion
dollars in new taxes out of the taxpayer. So as
the taxpayer is suffering and watching his standard of living
go down, the people who run this nation are looking
at the taxpayer like a hungry wolf. Janet Yellen basically
(28:46):
had to admit it the fact that the president's proposed
budget proposes four point seven thillion dollars in new taxes.
It does propos significant additional taxes. Yes, four point seven trillion,
(29:07):
something like that, Yes, oh, something like that. Oh okay,
And Joe Biden and his administration because they don't have
any heart for the American people. They don't care about
you living paycheck to paycheck. They'll just simply go to
the camera and lie repeatedly and act like everything's hunky dory.
(29:29):
Put all together, it's a plan to invest in America,
invest in Americans, give them opportunity to invest in ourselves.
And it's working. It's working. Well, that's news to the
sixty two percent of Americans who have to spend every
dime of every paycheck just to get themselves through to
(29:50):
the next paycheck. That's the craziest thing. The people in
charge are looking at us thinking, oh, this is going well,
and what are those I mean paying taxes. I just
had to pay my quarterly taxes. I'm still mad about that.
And why am I mad about that? Well, as you struggle,
as the financial situation gets worse, the money the government
(30:11):
is blood sucking out of your paycheck is going to
things like well this, Oh that sounds wonderful, Oh, but
(30:39):
it's actually more than that. As you are struggling and
living paycheck to paycheck, you can take heart that the
government is stealing twenty five percent of what you make
to pay for climate church. President Biden having signed the
Inflation Reduction Act, which is the most ambitious climate legislation
in history, but still is only projected to get at
(31:02):
production and emissions by the end of the decade, and
the US has promised a fifty percent reduction by the
end of the decade. Well, we're doing a lot more
than just the IRA. The IRA is a package that
in and of itself can get forty But in addition
to that, the President is issuing executive orders. There'll be
(31:25):
changes on automobile, on light truck, heavy truck, heavy duty,
a number of initiatives that are being taken by states,
subnational cities. Oh good, that makes me feel better. All right,
enough of that. You know what we're gonna do. I'm
going to pay homage to the Vietnam bets next. Before
we get to that. Speaking of veterans, let's talk about
(31:49):
the greatest cup coffee I've ever had in my life,
Bone Front Coffee. Now, it happens to have been started
by a Navy seal to honor the Navy Seals, but
that one is just a side benefit of the fact
that Seattle's best coffee you've heard of. It obviously one
of their founders. He's the one making the bone Frog blends.
(32:11):
This isn't just another one of these coffee companies. Oh,
buy our veteran coffee. It's the greatest cup of coffee
I've ever had. I have to hold myself back and
keep myself to two cups a day because Bonefrog Coffee
is doing everything it can do to break my two
cup of day pledge. I just want to keep drinking,
and I want it white right now. Ten percent off subscriptions.
(32:34):
You want the best tasting cup of coffee you've ever
had in your life, go get a subscription to bone
Frog Coffee. Go to Bonefrog Coffee dot com. Promo code Jesse.
You email me and let me know if that's not
the best cup you've ever had in your life. Bone
Frog Coffee dot Com promo code Jesse. We'll be back.
(33:00):
Sometimes I get sad about some things. Let me let
me explain. It's Vietnam Veterans Memorial Day today. It's a
day we honor Vietnam veterans. Everyone who fought there, We
honor them. And it occurs to me they're getting old.
Hear me out, hear me on them. When I was
(33:21):
a kid. I think I was fifteen years old, fifteen,
sixteen years old. I got a job at a golf
course and I was just cleaning golf clubs, running around,
just doing drunt work at the golf course. And I
got to know this guy who was a veteran of
Pearl Harbor and part of the reason I fell in
love with histories. This guy, this old gentleman, would sit
(33:42):
down with me and he would tell me stories about
life in the Navy, about that day in Pearl Harbor,
and I would just I was so fascinated and taken
in by the amount of wisdom this guy not only
had the amount of wisdom he would pass on to me.
And now World War Two, they're all dying. Time is
(34:03):
what it is. Age is what it is. They're all dying.
And I think about that when it comes through our
Vietnam veterans now, because in my mind, they're still fifty
years old. That's what he's fifties. It's fun. No, they're not, man,
they're seventy. They're seventy five. They're getting older. And these
guys did something so incredible for their nation. One, they
(34:27):
didn't get the respect they deserved from their nation two.
They fought in a war that was led by morons
politically generals. They were all morons. These guys went over
there and went through hell on Earth with bad leadership.
And that is so incredible. And they have so many
valuable lessons. They can teach us about everything about life,
(34:50):
about everything. I honor those guys, man, And they're getting older,
and it bums me out. So allow me just to
say this for Vietnam Veterans Day. Do you know one
in your life, even an acquaintance, Why don't you go
reach out, text message, phone call, Why don't you reach out,
(35:14):
meeting for a cup of coffee, meeting for a beer,
sit down, spend five ten minutes with them, because once
they're gone, we can't replicate that kind of wisdom. We
can't replicate those stories that they can tell us, the
lessons they can teach us about life, about government, about brotherhood,
about so many things. These guys are the very best
(35:38):
of us. And let's also do remember this. They didn't
come home after being treated poorly by their country. They
didn't come home and hate America for it. They were
still patriots to the bone. They watched their fathers go
off to World War two, and so they signed up
(36:00):
to do what they felt was honorable, to fight for
the United States of America the way Dad did. And
the United States of America's governments did these guys so
so wrong. But they still came home and they flew
their flags. And you still see them now walking around
the grocery store, Vietnam veteran ball cap on. And isn't
(36:20):
that something that's freaking cool? Man? I think it's awesome.
Honor these guys today. Send a text message right now,
make a phone call, send a text, go sit down
with them. Once they're gone. We can't bring them back,
all right, all right now, Something else we do need
to keep in mind is we have a fresh set
(36:41):
of veterans with issues now PTSD issues, issues that come
when you go spend time in combat. I want you
and I to be more committed than we have been
to helping them come back into the world. It doesn't
just happen automatically. It doesn't just don't. You don't just
(37:04):
get back from Afghanistan Iraq, take off the uniform, put
on a suit jacket and you're fine. You're not fine.
It's hard to be a dad, a son, a brother,
an employee. An employee, it's hard to just be a
normal person after going through that. You need help. These
guys need help, but they're not getting the help they need.
(37:24):
Definitely not getting it from the VA. Get a bottle
of pills and an atta boy. That doesn't help. Boulder
Crest is finding them and helping them come back into
the world. Is there anything more blessed we can do
for these guys than to give them a life after
they went and served for us. It's called Operations Struggle.
(37:44):
Go give whatever you can help these guys out. It's
a wonderful, wonderful program. Boulder Crest dot org. All right,
Bouldercrest dot org. We'll be back. All right, It's time
for a dome and dumber version of light in the
(38:05):
mood tonight. There's just too much good stuff out there
as we pay homage to the Commander in chief and
as vice President. Before we get to that, let's do
this really quickly. You know, it's wild about gold and silver.
Precious metals is the history of it, so you know
the future of it. For instance, if I was to
(38:28):
hand you a chest full of gold or silver and
then put you in a time machine and teleport you
five thousand years into the past, you would still have
incredible wealth. And therefore, if I put you five thousand
years in the future with that same chest of gold
and silver, you will have incredible value. Can the stock
(38:48):
market say that? Do you have gold and silver in
your four one k and ira? You worked hard for
that money. You're going to give it all back when
the bubble pops? Do you have physical gold and silver
in your hands? For gold can make that happen too.
They handle all this, and they handle it's so easy.
It's just wonderful working with them. Call eight three three
(39:09):
nine five gold and get wealth that lasts. Wealth you
pass down to your children and their children and their
children after them. Eight three three nine nine five gold.
All right, all right, President of the United States of
America has to be told where to stand down here, yes, sir,
(39:29):
down the ramp, and we have people lined up on
the left over here, some union leaders and workers. Your
mark is going to be the blue one to the left.
You've got a blue mark, and that's okay. I go,
(39:49):
I'll stand my blue mark, and then I'm gonna say
load twenty yees, sir. I'm I'll help you get started.
That's the leader of the free world. That's the commander
in chief. But don't worry. At least he's got a
good backup. But the creative work that is happening on
(40:13):
this continent as represented glad to work that is happening
here and on it's extraordinary in terms of the international
global indoct Now this is not a new phenomena, but
it is something that with all of the current excitements
(40:34):
about the evolution of culture and music in terms that
is very significant. What is happening here is changing the
way people kind of enjoy themselves. I'll see them all
