WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.240 --> 00:00:06.639 It is Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Monday. 2 00:00:06.799 --> 00:00:10.000 As we try to sort through things here, I'm still hurting, 3 00:00:10.039 --> 00:00:12.759 You're still hurting. That's life. I promise you. We are 4 00:00:12.800 --> 00:00:15.359 going to get by. I promise you. We're gonna laugh 5 00:00:15.400 --> 00:00:18.480 a half hour from now, and we do the Crappiest 6 00:00:18.519 --> 00:00:21.239 Country in the World tournament. And yes, we're gonna talk 7 00:00:21.239 --> 00:00:24.960 about all these people getting fired and many other things, 8 00:00:25.000 --> 00:00:27.280 but we're not doing any more of that right now. 9 00:00:28.719 --> 00:00:31.760 Probably now more than ever. We need a Medal of 10 00:00:31.760 --> 00:00:36.880 Honor Monday. Every Monday at this time, we find an 11 00:00:36.920 --> 00:00:40.600 American hero who earned a Medal of Honor and we 12 00:00:40.719 --> 00:00:44.039 honor them. We read their name, and we read their deeds, 13 00:00:44.960 --> 00:00:48.399 and we talk about heroism and fighting for the country 14 00:00:48.399 --> 00:00:52.159 and fighting for your fellow man. And it is really, 15 00:00:52.280 --> 00:00:56.840 really really important now that we carry that message. I'm 16 00:00:56.840 --> 00:00:59.719 going to really really stress this because people when they 17 00:00:59.759 --> 00:01:01.759 are afraid, and a lot of people are afraid, maybe 18 00:01:01.759 --> 00:01:07.359 you are afraid, they need someone who is courageous and bold. 19 00:01:08.719 --> 00:01:14.560 They will follow that person. Cowardice is courageous. Is Cowardice 20 00:01:14.599 --> 00:01:20.879 is courageous. Cowardice is contagious, and so is courage. Speak 21 00:01:21.079 --> 00:01:25.280 to your children about these men and their deeds. Speak 22 00:01:25.319 --> 00:01:29.920 to your office about it, your church. This is not political. 23 00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:32.920 You can get away with this anywhere. You're the fire department, 24 00:01:33.439 --> 00:01:38.719 police department. Speak about these things, learn about heroism and 25 00:01:38.760 --> 00:01:41.840 what people have done. Now is a time for people 26 00:01:41.879 --> 00:01:45.879 of courage to rise up. I got this email. Remember 27 00:01:45.879 --> 00:01:49.359 we take email suggestions that they're welcome. There's a long 28 00:01:49.480 --> 00:01:54.000 backlog because this thing's gotten pretty popular, but email us 29 00:01:54.239 --> 00:01:58.239 Jesse at jesse kellyshow dot com. Hey, Jesse, I'm a 30 00:01:58.319 --> 00:02:01.760 seventh grader head of school in Minnesota. That was last year, 31 00:02:01.799 --> 00:02:04.000 though he's an eighth grader. Now, I would like you 32 00:02:04.040 --> 00:02:06.640 to read the Medal of Honor citation and play taps 33 00:02:06.640 --> 00:02:10.240 for Robert E. Fleming, who served in World War Two 34 00:02:10.240 --> 00:02:14.680 and graduated from this school. And that he says thanks kid, 35 00:02:14.719 --> 00:02:21.039 gloves menu nerd baldy. Not very nice either way. Richard 36 00:02:21.280 --> 00:02:25.960 Eugene Fleming was born in Saint Paul, Minnesota, in nineteen 37 00:02:26.080 --> 00:02:30.840 seventeen United States Marine Corps Reserve and what I'm about 38 00:02:30.879 --> 00:02:33.120 to read for you here took place in Midway. I 39 00:02:33.159 --> 00:02:36.919 want to remind you. I know this is basic, but 40 00:02:36.960 --> 00:02:39.319 a lot of people don't know basics. People wake up 41 00:02:39.360 --> 00:02:44.360 in their own time that the Japanese they didn't just 42 00:02:44.479 --> 00:02:48.439 beat us at Pearl Harbor. They thumped us in the Philippines. 43 00:02:48.960 --> 00:02:54.960 They were thumping everybody, the Brits, everybody. They were expanding rapidly, 44 00:02:55.800 --> 00:02:59.000 and they were on their way to Hawaii. Wrap your 45 00:02:59.039 --> 00:03:02.240 mind around that. The Japanese were coming to Hawaii not 46 00:03:02.319 --> 00:03:05.680 for another Pearl Harbor bombing. They were coming to take it. 47 00:03:06.520 --> 00:03:08.639 We can't even we can't even wrap our minds around 48 00:03:08.680 --> 00:03:12.639 that now. But they were coming to take the Hawaiian islands. 49 00:03:13.240 --> 00:03:20.360 And part of their plan was to ambush us at Midway, well, 50 00:03:20.479 --> 00:03:26.280 take a takeout Midway Island. And we, through our intelligence service, 51 00:03:26.360 --> 00:03:30.639 we were reading there, essentially reading their mail. We pieced 52 00:03:30.639 --> 00:03:34.080 together enough information and figured out, wait a minute, there's 53 00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:37.639 a large force going to attack Midway to ambush Midway. 54 00:03:39.039 --> 00:03:42.800 What if we ambushed them? And so we assembled all 55 00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:44.759 these ships, all these aircraft carries. But I want you 56 00:03:44.879 --> 00:03:49.479 to keep in mind, attacking ships in a plane is 57 00:03:49.479 --> 00:03:53.280 a very very dangerous affair. Not only are they shooting 58 00:03:53.319 --> 00:03:56.360 at you the ship itself, other planes are shooting at you. 59 00:03:56.759 --> 00:04:00.479 There are endless mechanical failures it is so something that 60 00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:04.400 can end up fatally. The pilots of World War Two, 61 00:04:04.520 --> 00:04:08.120 all of them, but especially the Pacific pilots, should deserve 62 00:04:08.199 --> 00:04:13.319 your unending respect. It was a dangerous, dangerous job and 63 00:04:13.360 --> 00:04:15.879 many of them didn't make it home. And our success 64 00:04:16.000 --> 00:04:19.199 at Midway, when we thumped the Japanese at Midway, it 65 00:04:19.319 --> 00:04:23.680 stopped that expansion. They never expanded again. From then on 66 00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:28.360 we started to push back the tide. So without further 67 00:04:28.399 --> 00:04:35.720 ado Richard Eugene Fleming, United States Marine Corps, Hey honoring 68 00:04:35.759 --> 00:04:39.000 those who went above and beyond. It's Medal of Honor 69 00:04:39.079 --> 00:04:51.160 Monday for extraordinary heroism and conspicuous intrepidity above and beyond 70 00:04:51.199 --> 00:04:55.120 the call of duty as flight officer, Marine Scout bombing 71 00:04:55.160 --> 00:04:59.560 Squadron two forty one during action against enemy Japanese forces 72 00:04:59.560 --> 00:05:02.040 in the Battle Midway on the fourth and fifth of 73 00:05:02.120 --> 00:05:06.360 June nineteen forty two. When his squadron commander was shot 74 00:05:06.399 --> 00:05:10.079 down during the initial attack upon an enemy aircraft carrier, 75 00:05:10.439 --> 00:05:14.160 Captain Fleming led the remainder of the division with such 76 00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:18.680 fearless determination that he dived his own plane to the 77 00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:23.920 perilously low altitude of four hundred feet before releasing his 78 00:05:23.959 --> 00:05:28.639 bomb although his craft was riddled by one hundred and 79 00:05:28.839 --> 00:05:32.319 seventy nine hits in the blistering hail of fire that 80 00:05:32.439 --> 00:05:36.920 burst upon him from Japanese fighter guns and anti aircraft batteries, 81 00:05:37.279 --> 00:05:40.920 he pulled out with only two minor wounds inflicted upon 82 00:05:41.000 --> 00:05:44.720 himself on the On the night of fourth of June, 83 00:05:44.720 --> 00:05:48.759 when the squadron commander lost his way and became separated 84 00:05:48.800 --> 00:05:52.120 from the others, Captain Fleming brought his own plane in 85 00:05:52.360 --> 00:05:55.920 for a safe landing at its base, despite hazardous weather 86 00:05:55.959 --> 00:06:00.160 conditions and total darkness. The following day, after left les 87 00:06:00.199 --> 00:06:03.800 than four hours of sleep, he led the second division 88 00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:07.639 of his squadron in a coordinated glide bombing and dive 89 00:06:07.720 --> 00:06:13.160 bombing assault upon a Japanese battleship. Undeterred by a fateful 90 00:06:13.199 --> 00:06:17.120 approach glide during which his ship was struck and set 91 00:06:17.160 --> 00:06:20.920 a fire, he grimly pressed home his attack to an 92 00:06:20.959 --> 00:06:25.399 altitude of five hundred feet, released his bomb to score 93 00:06:25.480 --> 00:06:28.439 a near miss on the stern of his target, then 94 00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:33.319 crashed to the sea in flames. His dauntless perseverance and 95 00:06:33.519 --> 00:06:36.360 unyielding devotion to duty were in keeping with the highest 96 00:06:36.399 --> 00:06:43.720 traditions of the US Naval Service plane in flames, ready 97 00:06:43.759 --> 00:06:48.800 to blow up or even worse, burn to death. And 98 00:06:48.839 --> 00:06:51.000 he continued on so he could drop his bomb and 99 00:06:51.040 --> 00:07:52.639 try to land one last shot. Captain Fleming, M isn't it? 100 00:07:52.680 --> 00:07:55.079 Isn't it crazy? How many of those names we don't know? 101 00:07:56.519 --> 00:07:59.439 You don't know? And I don't know. There were so 102 00:07:59.560 --> 00:08:02.600 many and it was so long ago, but not just 103 00:08:02.639 --> 00:08:07.160 World War two, right, any conflict? How many names? How 104 00:08:07.160 --> 00:08:09.720 many names of Iraq and Afghanistan? How many do you know? 105 00:08:10.720 --> 00:08:13.360 We did an event with tunnel to towers one time. 106 00:08:13.439 --> 00:08:15.680 I did an event with Tunnel to Towers in Washington, 107 00:08:15.759 --> 00:08:20.800 d C. Where it was all day long and had 108 00:08:20.839 --> 00:08:24.560 a bunch of different speakers, but there weren't really speeches 109 00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:30.399 that I can remember. The entire day was reading every 110 00:08:30.480 --> 00:08:33.960 name of those who gave their lives in Iraq and Afghanistan. 111 00:08:34.840 --> 00:08:36.519 And I remember as I was looking at my list 112 00:08:36.600 --> 00:08:39.600 before I went up there, I remember thinking to myself, 113 00:08:40.480 --> 00:08:43.759 I didn't know any of these names people who gave 114 00:08:43.759 --> 00:08:47.159 their lives for this country, and I don't know their names. 115 00:08:47.720 --> 00:08:51.519 And it's really, really, really important that we talk about 116 00:08:51.519 --> 00:08:56.320 these people, that we honor their sacrifice and talk about them. 117 00:08:56.919 --> 00:08:59.759 That is part of how we are going to form 118 00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:04.639 a new generation, a better generation, better one than we are. 119 00:09:05.120 --> 00:09:07.879 That that's the idea, right, that's the goal. And I'll 120 00:09:07.879 --> 00:09:09.919 tell you I see a lot of the elements there. 121 00:09:10.120 --> 00:09:12.279 From what I see in young people today, I see 122 00:09:12.320 --> 00:09:15.639 an opportunity for the next generation to be so much 123 00:09:15.679 --> 00:09:18.360 better than us, certainly better than me, but so much 124 00:09:18.440 --> 00:09:22.000 better than we are, and bolder and more willing to engage. 125 00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:24.840 We just have to keep bringing up these names. I love. 126 00:09:25.120 --> 00:09:27.480 I love doing it, man, I'm telling you, I love 127 00:09:27.519 --> 00:09:30.919 doing it. It's become an obsession now. On the weekends, 128 00:09:30.919 --> 00:09:34.440 I'll find myself scrolling through them, thinking about Monday, of course, 129 00:09:34.440 --> 00:09:36.679 but scrolling through them, and as you're scrolling through them, 130 00:09:36.679 --> 00:09:38.440 you do, oh, I didn't know that. Oh, I didn't 131 00:09:38.480 --> 00:09:40.559 know that guy. I didn't know that name. I didn't 132 00:09:40.679 --> 00:09:44.039 I didn't know I didn't know It's it's it's wild. Anyway. 133 00:09:44.519 --> 00:09:49.440 I'm going to talk about a painful realization that may 134 00:09:49.480 --> 00:09:53.320 be new to you, something I've kind of been aware 135 00:09:53.360 --> 00:09:55.200 of for some time, but everyone wakes up in their 136 00:09:55.240 --> 00:10:00.480 own time, a painful realization about who you share country 137 00:10:00.480 --> 00:10:03.399 with that is shocking a lot of people. We're gonna 138 00:10:03.399 --> 00:10:04.480 talk about that in a moment. 139 00:10:04.240 --> 00:10:07.919 Before It is the Jesse Kelly Show, only ten. 140 00:10:07.960 --> 00:10:10.120 I almost messed up my own name, only ten minutes 141 00:10:10.200 --> 00:10:13.559 away from the Crappiest Country in the World tournament. Remember, 142 00:10:13.600 --> 00:10:18.399 you can email the show Jesse at Jesse Kellyshow dot com. 143 00:10:18.559 --> 00:10:21.240 So before we get to the people getting fired and 144 00:10:21.279 --> 00:10:25.279 things like that, I forgot to tell you, Chris Corey 145 00:10:25.440 --> 00:10:28.799 during the break, I have some good news and I 146 00:10:28.840 --> 00:10:32.039 have some bad news for you. You know how I told 147 00:10:32.039 --> 00:10:34.960 you we all got together on Saturday night and everybody 148 00:10:34.960 --> 00:10:40.159 had to prepare a dish. Good news is I smoked 149 00:10:40.159 --> 00:10:44.799 a brisket for twenty one hours. It was perfection. I 150 00:10:44.840 --> 00:10:48.360 brought it to the party. It's better than you can imagine. 151 00:10:49.200 --> 00:10:51.879 Bad news is they finished it all, so there's none 152 00:10:51.960 --> 00:10:55.240 left to bring you guys. Sorry, what what I said? 153 00:10:55.240 --> 00:10:56.960 It was good news and bad news. I'm sorry. But 154 00:10:57.039 --> 00:11:01.039 but wait, wait, wait, there's more, Wait, there's more. Ob 155 00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:08.120 her contribution was her homemade oatmeal cream pies. Obviously they 156 00:11:08.120 --> 00:11:11.759 were a huge hit, and she made so many this 157 00:11:11.919 --> 00:11:15.440 time that we do have a bunch left over. And 158 00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:18.799 she just texted me during the break, you need to 159 00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:23.240 bring some leftovers for Chris and Corey tomorrow. But bad 160 00:11:23.320 --> 00:11:26.639 news is I already told her no. So look, it's 161 00:11:26.639 --> 00:11:30.320 a yin and yang thing, like everything can't be perfect, 162 00:11:30.519 --> 00:11:34.000 all right, Just I want you to know the brisket 163 00:11:34.080 --> 00:11:37.840 that you didn't get to have any of was so good. 164 00:11:38.360 --> 00:11:40.720 So that's not very nice, Chris. It was so it 165 00:11:40.799 --> 00:11:44.320 was just juicy. And I mean, I guess I shouldn't 166 00:11:44.320 --> 00:11:46.840 try to put it into words because you really had 167 00:11:46.879 --> 00:11:50.399 to be there, otherwise you wouldn't know. Sorry, you guys 168 00:11:50.399 --> 00:11:54.960 don't get to find out about that anyway. I'm sorry you. 169 00:11:56.480 --> 00:11:59.360 I'm sorry you are finding out that we have monsters 170 00:11:59.399 --> 00:12:03.200 all over our I get all these emails, Jesse. I 171 00:12:03.240 --> 00:12:05.320 want a national divorce. I want it now. We cannot 172 00:12:05.320 --> 00:12:09.320 live together, Jesse. I think it's a good thing. Teachers, nurses, 173 00:12:09.360 --> 00:12:12.120 and members of the military are getting fired for celebrating 174 00:12:12.200 --> 00:12:16.200 Charlie's assassination. But these people aren't going anywhere. They still 175 00:12:16.240 --> 00:12:19.360 live in our communities. They're still believe that firing them 176 00:12:19.440 --> 00:12:22.159 doesn't feel like it's going to do anything, just make 177 00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:26.480 them more angry. Again, I fully support it. What happens next, 178 00:12:28.000 --> 00:12:31.200 And so look, I know you've seen the headlines, and 179 00:12:31.279 --> 00:12:34.960 I know that from when I've heard from people, from 180 00:12:35.039 --> 00:12:41.639 talking to people, the Democrat response is as heartbreaking as 181 00:12:41.679 --> 00:12:47.679 the assassination itself. People are mortified, not just at the assassination, 182 00:12:47.840 --> 00:12:54.200 but Democrats everywhere. Headline professors defend Charlie Kirk assassination on 183 00:12:54.320 --> 00:12:59.759 Blue Sky it's a social media platform. UCLA places race 184 00:12:59.840 --> 00:13:04.039 in equity director who celebrated Charlie kirk assassination on leave. 185 00:13:04.759 --> 00:13:10.600 FEMA employee, fired, military colonel, suspended headline. At least a 186 00:13:10.679 --> 00:13:14.320 dozen faculty and staff have faced fallout over They called 187 00:13:14.360 --> 00:13:21.679 it insensitive comments. Headline man arrested for sickening act at 188 00:13:21.759 --> 00:13:25.080 Charlie Kirk memorial outside of Turning Point and headquarters in Phoenix. 189 00:13:25.360 --> 00:13:27.960 He went and started kicking over flowers and things like that. 190 00:13:28.120 --> 00:13:34.639 Headline hospital fires healthcare worker for controversial social media posts. 191 00:13:34.679 --> 00:13:37.320 You know, they always try to really fluff up what 192 00:13:37.399 --> 00:13:41.919 these posts, worthies were all posts saying some version of 193 00:13:41.960 --> 00:13:46.440 this either A I'm glad he got shot, I'm thrilled, 194 00:13:47.000 --> 00:13:51.320 or B. You know, he really kind of had it coming. 195 00:13:52.080 --> 00:13:54.320 You see that a lot. He kind of had it coming. 196 00:13:54.919 --> 00:13:58.159 I mean he kind of you know, well, look here's 197 00:13:58.200 --> 00:13:58.759 a great version. 198 00:13:58.799 --> 00:14:01.399 This was MSNBC The reason that he is seen as 199 00:14:01.440 --> 00:14:04.559 a divisive figures and why the left has had a 200 00:14:04.600 --> 00:14:07.960 reaction as well in this is because he has been 201 00:14:08.000 --> 00:14:11.720 known to make racist statements, to say that, you know, 202 00:14:11.720 --> 00:14:14.840 if he were to see a black pilot, he wouldn't 203 00:14:14.919 --> 00:14:19.200 necessarily trust their ability to fly a plane. He has 204 00:14:19.240 --> 00:14:22.519 also said that it was a mistake to pass the 205 00:14:22.559 --> 00:14:26.799 Civil Rights Act and has definitely he had it coming. 206 00:14:26.879 --> 00:14:30.919 You say, it's been everywhere. The responses from Democrats have 207 00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:36.159 ranged to outright celebration to well, maybe not celebrating, but 208 00:14:36.200 --> 00:14:41.360 he kind of deserved it to I mean, it's kind 209 00:14:41.360 --> 00:14:43.679 of good that he's gone. I don't love that it happened, 210 00:14:43.679 --> 00:14:46.519 but it's good that you've seen it. And it's not 211 00:14:46.559 --> 00:14:48.639 one or two. It's the Democrat in your life, you know. One. 212 00:14:49.480 --> 00:14:52.559 The emails have filled the inbox with Jesse, I cannot 213 00:14:52.559 --> 00:14:54.960 believe what my sister just said, Jesse. That was a 214 00:14:55.000 --> 00:14:57.919 member of my church group. Jesse, I can't believe, Jesse. 215 00:14:58.200 --> 00:15:01.879 You have told me your personal stories of the Democrat 216 00:15:02.000 --> 00:15:05.919 in your life, either cheering for it or being kind 217 00:15:05.919 --> 00:15:09.080 of okay with it, or justifying it. Kind of had 218 00:15:09.120 --> 00:15:13.639 it coming. And what this has done is it is. 219 00:15:14.960 --> 00:15:17.840 It's brought about a sadness for a lot of people 220 00:15:18.720 --> 00:15:23.799 who didn't quite realize where we were. And everyone wakes 221 00:15:23.879 --> 00:15:28.600 up in their own time with their own experiences. If 222 00:15:28.600 --> 00:15:31.120 you listen to this show, you know I've told you 223 00:15:31.240 --> 00:15:33.360 what these people are for a very long time. I'm 224 00:15:33.399 --> 00:15:37.039 not surprised in the least, not a little bit. But 225 00:15:37.159 --> 00:15:41.440 I understand the lies people tell themselves. You tell yourself 226 00:15:41.480 --> 00:15:44.639 the lie of Okay, well there's one crazy communist out there. 227 00:15:44.639 --> 00:15:46.879 I got Okay, there's a few, but it's not all 228 00:15:46.919 --> 00:15:50.039 of them, all right, Well, I mean it's it's maybe half, 229 00:15:50.120 --> 00:15:52.480 but half are still really good people. Well, it's just 230 00:15:52.559 --> 00:15:55.240 the people on the media. It's just the politicians. It's 231 00:15:55.320 --> 00:16:02.639 it knew, no, No, it is the comfortable majority of 232 00:16:02.759 --> 00:16:06.759 registered Democrats in this country. That is a fact. Every 233 00:16:06.799 --> 00:16:11.919 poll shows it. The majority either cheer for violence, they're 234 00:16:11.960 --> 00:16:16.360 okay with violence, we'll commit acts of violence, a violent 235 00:16:16.399 --> 00:16:18.480 place to be. And I know that has saddened you. 236 00:16:19.879 --> 00:16:23.960 But after we do our crappiest country in the world thing, 237 00:16:24.519 --> 00:16:27.639 we'll talk about this more. I know you're sad, but 238 00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:30.320 what you're going through right now is healthy, and I'll 239 00:16:30.360 --> 00:16:31.480 explain it. 240 00:16:31.360 --> 00:16:37.120 Is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Monday. It has 241 00:16:37.200 --> 00:16:40.759 already been quite a Monday as we still sift through 242 00:16:40.799 --> 00:16:41.799 all the. 243 00:16:41.399 --> 00:16:44.159 The rubble here and talking about this and that. We 244 00:16:44.200 --> 00:16:46.840 already did Medal of Honor Monday a half hour ago. 245 00:16:47.159 --> 00:16:50.480 But it's time to take a break on the heaviness 246 00:16:50.519 --> 00:16:52.720 and take a break on the emails. And since we 247 00:16:52.840 --> 00:16:57.000 need a break because we have something critically important to do, 248 00:16:58.480 --> 00:17:03.440 the Tournament of Tournaments. The Crappiest Country in the World tournament. 249 00:17:04.279 --> 00:17:07.799 It will not stop. It cannot stop until you and me, 250 00:17:08.680 --> 00:17:11.519 until we dig in and we figure out what is 251 00:17:11.599 --> 00:17:15.759 the crappiest country on Earth. And we have another This 252 00:17:15.839 --> 00:17:21.319 is our second All Africa matchup tonight. Niger squares off 253 00:17:21.440 --> 00:17:26.920 against so I gotta be honest to early favorite Somalia. 254 00:17:27.960 --> 00:17:31.799 It's the twenty twenty five Crappiest country in the world competition. 255 00:17:32.519 --> 00:17:37.799 Tonight's matchup is between Somalia and Niger. Brought to you 256 00:17:37.960 --> 00:17:44.960 by Alphabet Plungers. Use both ends. 257 00:17:46.799 --> 00:17:49.480 First, We're gonna go to Niger and something I would 258 00:17:49.559 --> 00:17:52.680 highly recommend you never do. Remember the four levels of 259 00:17:52.799 --> 00:17:57.400 State Department warning Niger comes in at a level three. 260 00:17:57.720 --> 00:18:02.839 But actually that's not entirely fair because regions of Niger 261 00:18:03.279 --> 00:18:07.960 are Level four, meaning don't travel there for any reason, 262 00:18:08.200 --> 00:18:10.640 you will die. No one's coming to rescue you. Now 263 00:18:10.680 --> 00:18:14.720 that begs the question, of course, which regions. Oh, I'm 264 00:18:14.759 --> 00:18:18.480 glad you asked all the border regions. That's not great, 265 00:18:18.799 --> 00:18:23.839 considering Niger borders seven countries. Essentially the whole place is 266 00:18:23.960 --> 00:18:27.559 level four, with a tiny sliver of level three where 267 00:18:27.599 --> 00:18:30.440 you only have to worry about crime, terrorism, and of 268 00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:35.079 course kidnapping. Armed robbery seems to be a real specialty there. 269 00:18:35.400 --> 00:18:37.400 And in case you're wondering if it's got kind of 270 00:18:37.440 --> 00:18:41.279 a Mexico thing where the bad guys avoid the touristy areas. 271 00:18:41.640 --> 00:18:44.440 In fact, it's quite the opposite. They focus on the 272 00:18:44.480 --> 00:18:49.279 touristy areas, so you might just have a dessert of 273 00:18:49.400 --> 00:18:53.200 kidnapping with your continental breakfast at the holiday inn. I 274 00:18:53.240 --> 00:18:56.200 should also note, if you do choose to travel there, 275 00:18:56.279 --> 00:18:58.799 this one's a little bit unique. You have to be 276 00:18:58.960 --> 00:19:03.920 vaccinated for several things, including yellow fever, which probably would 277 00:19:03.920 --> 00:19:06.599 have helped out Eric Swalwell. Part of the reason the 278 00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:09.880 country is such a disaster is remember how I said 279 00:19:09.920 --> 00:19:13.960 they border seven countries. Yeah, they apparently routinely take in 280 00:19:14.200 --> 00:19:18.279 refugees against their will from all seven countries. Not only 281 00:19:18.319 --> 00:19:20.680 are they starving to death, twenty percent of the people 282 00:19:20.720 --> 00:19:22.799 don't even have enough food to live through the day. 283 00:19:23.279 --> 00:19:26.640 More people are coming in every day. Forty five percent 284 00:19:26.640 --> 00:19:30.119 of the country living in extreme poverty. It's a little 285 00:19:30.200 --> 00:19:35.960 rough in Niger. But that brings us to I don't 286 00:19:35.960 --> 00:19:40.559 want to handicap anything. I don't want to, I don't 287 00:19:40.599 --> 00:19:43.160 want to make predictions. I don't want to taint the vote, 288 00:19:43.200 --> 00:19:47.680 if you will, but that brings us to Somalia. And 289 00:19:48.200 --> 00:19:49.839 I've got to be honest, I don't know which way 290 00:19:49.839 --> 00:19:52.119 this tournament's going to go. It's up to you, not 291 00:19:52.240 --> 00:19:56.240 me for the most part, but Somalia has to be 292 00:19:56.319 --> 00:20:00.400 considered a favorite, certainly a number one seed to win 293 00:20:00.480 --> 00:20:04.640 the entire thing. Niger, that dump we just talked about 294 00:20:04.920 --> 00:20:07.960 squared off against Somalia, and remember you get to vote 295 00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:11.920 on this. It's on the show's Jesse Kelly Show Twitter page. 296 00:20:12.079 --> 00:20:15.519 Somalia got ninety percent of the vote, which is all 297 00:20:15.599 --> 00:20:19.359 the ironic because whichever warlord currently has the most guns 298 00:20:19.359 --> 00:20:23.279 in Somalia usually gets ninety percent of the vote. Somalia, 299 00:20:23.319 --> 00:20:26.880 the entire thing is level four, you know, run of 300 00:20:26.880 --> 00:20:30.839 the mill crimes we've gotten used to by now, crime, terrorism, kidnapping. 301 00:20:30.880 --> 00:20:33.640 By the way, terrorism is a little bit deeper and 302 00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:38.640 more embedded in Somalia. We're talking car bombs, suicide vests. 303 00:20:38.759 --> 00:20:42.640 Don't think just because it seems peaceful, it is that 304 00:20:42.880 --> 00:20:46.839 superu outback might not be driven by a lesbian, might 305 00:20:46.960 --> 00:20:50.279 actually be driven by a Muslim extremist getting ready to 306 00:20:50.319 --> 00:20:52.200 set off that nail bomb in front of you and 307 00:20:52.240 --> 00:20:56.480 your family. Somalia also mixes in a healthy dose of piracy, 308 00:20:56.559 --> 00:21:00.359 which is well known by now Horn of Africa. Bunch 309 00:21:00.440 --> 00:21:03.839 of dirtballs with AK forty seven's driving up the ships, 310 00:21:03.920 --> 00:21:08.160 killing everybody's doing the standard pirate thing. Somalia is so 311 00:21:08.359 --> 00:21:12.079 severe the risk of kidnapping or death is so high 312 00:21:12.400 --> 00:21:16.519 they actually advise that you scrub your social media account 313 00:21:16.559 --> 00:21:20.279 completely if you ever visit there. Why you ask, because 314 00:21:20.359 --> 00:21:23.640 when you get kidnapped, which is almost inevitable, the group 315 00:21:23.640 --> 00:21:27.359 who kidnaps you is probably going to peruse your Instagram account, 316 00:21:27.640 --> 00:21:31.000 and if they see a woman showing her shoulders, she's 317 00:21:31.039 --> 00:21:34.640 probably going to get her head cut off. Female genital 318 00:21:34.759 --> 00:21:39.000 mutilation might be the most disgusting practice I have ever 319 00:21:39.079 --> 00:21:41.480 heard about. I will not explain it on this show 320 00:21:41.519 --> 00:21:45.119 because there are children listening. Just know it's actually worse 321 00:21:45.240 --> 00:21:48.920 than you imagine. It happens in Somalia, but bad things 322 00:21:48.960 --> 00:21:51.880 happen everywhere. Of course, the question is how prevalent is it. 323 00:21:52.079 --> 00:21:57.839 I'm glad you asked. It's ninety nine percent. Seventy percent 324 00:21:57.920 --> 00:22:01.400 of Somalia lives in extreme power. That country is run 325 00:22:01.440 --> 00:22:04.960 by warlords and terrorists. The only good news I have 326 00:22:05.079 --> 00:22:08.079 out of Somalia is so many of the bad people 327 00:22:08.160 --> 00:22:11.119 have left Somalia. Of course, the bad news is they're 328 00:22:11.160 --> 00:22:15.960 all now in Minneapolis the victor today. To be honest, 329 00:22:16.000 --> 00:22:25.640 it wasn't even close Somalia, I should note tomorrow. I 330 00:22:25.640 --> 00:22:31.079 don't think it's going to be close. South Sudan is 331 00:22:31.160 --> 00:22:37.200 taking on France. Okay, I guess we'll see, all right, 332 00:22:37.240 --> 00:22:41.400 So before we get back into the sad place where 333 00:22:41.440 --> 00:22:45.039 you are about realizing you're surrounded by a bunch of monsters, 334 00:22:45.440 --> 00:22:47.720 we'll again talk about why we got there and how 335 00:22:47.720 --> 00:22:50.119 to deal with that sadness. It's actually healthy where you're 336 00:22:50.119 --> 00:22:51.920 at right now. It's healthy. I know it hurts, but 337 00:22:51.920 --> 00:22:54.079 it's healthy. It's a lot of things like that. I 338 00:22:54.119 --> 00:22:57.960 wanted to update you on something. Meghan Kelly. You know 339 00:22:58.039 --> 00:23:03.799 Meghan Kelly. Megan Kelly is doing a speaking tour very similar. 340 00:23:04.039 --> 00:23:06.200 A lot of people do these speaking tours where she's 341 00:23:06.240 --> 00:23:09.440 going from city to city and she has a guest 342 00:23:09.519 --> 00:23:12.039 or two or three, I don't know how many, and 343 00:23:12.079 --> 00:23:14.880 they go up on stage with her and they'll just 344 00:23:14.920 --> 00:23:17.160 how political discussion. It'll be a big event. A bunch 345 00:23:17.200 --> 00:23:21.640 of great people will come together. On October twenty third, 346 00:23:22.480 --> 00:23:26.039 she's doing one in the Houston area. From what I understand, 347 00:23:26.119 --> 00:23:30.119 unless something's changed, Don Junior, Donald Trump Junior is here 348 00:23:30.319 --> 00:23:32.960 featured guests, which I like Don. I like him a lot. 349 00:23:32.680 --> 00:23:36.119 We get along. I'm going to be there too as 350 00:23:36.119 --> 00:23:40.079 a speaker, and I know that word has already gotten 351 00:23:40.119 --> 00:23:43.599 out about that and people are worried. I get a 352 00:23:43.640 --> 00:23:46.160 lot of emails off I'm worried. I'm worried because I 353 00:23:46.559 --> 00:23:48.759 keep your head down, be safe, or I've gotten a 354 00:23:48.799 --> 00:23:50.680 bunch of don't do it, don't do it. We can't 355 00:23:50.720 --> 00:23:54.519 afford to, can't afford to lose you to. I want 356 00:23:54.559 --> 00:23:57.920 you to come if if you can, if it's feasible. 357 00:23:57.960 --> 00:24:00.920 I know not everyone's around Houston most people are not, 358 00:24:01.839 --> 00:24:05.880 or if you are, you know, maybe maybe it's expensive, 359 00:24:06.440 --> 00:24:07.640 maybe you want to come in from out of town. 360 00:24:07.640 --> 00:24:10.839 It's too expensive. I get all those things. But no, 361 00:24:12.160 --> 00:24:15.279 we do not hide at home.
