There weren't many young people? All 8 00:00:24.320 --> 00:00:27.000 this reporting about how old everyone was. We're gonna discuss 9 00:00:27.039 --> 00:00:29.559 that what's going on? Then we'll talk about that in 10 00:00:29.600 --> 00:00:31.120 a couple of minutes. But we don't want time for 11 00:00:31.160 --> 00:00:35.000 that right now, because it's Monday.

We 21 00:01:12.280 --> 00:01:16.000 should remember their deeds. We should hold them up in 22 00:01:16.000 --> 00:01:19.359 front of the next generation and say, look, that's what 23 00:01:19.400 --> 00:01:23.400 you want to be, all right, And we take email suggestions. 24 00:01:23.799 --> 00:01:25.959 I should have already told you in the show.

There's a lot of them, 29 00:01:37.560 --> 00:01:39.719 but we will get to them eventually. We got this one. 30 00:01:39.840 --> 00:01:41.640 In fact, I think we've done this one before, but 31 00:01:41.799 --> 00:01:44.599 it doesn't matter. It's still freaking awesome. Dear men, you 32 00:01:44.640 --> 00:01:48.719 whisper never read a Medal of Honor citation until I 33 00:01:48.760 --> 00:01:52.239 accidentally found your show. It's my favorite segment on all 34 00:01:52.280 --> 00:01:56.480 of radio. Now please consider highlighting our local Medal of 35 00:01:56.519 --> 00:02:01.079 Honor recipient, herschel Woody Williams. Turns out he was a 36 00:02:01.120 --> 00:02:07.159 stud with a flamethrower who knew all right, So I 37 00:02:07.200 --> 00:02:10.879 need to describe something because this is This takes place 38 00:02:10.919 --> 00:02:13.400 on Ewojima, which obviously you know World War two in 39 00:02:13.439 --> 00:02:17.400 the Pacific Ewogima. If you've listened to this show, you 40 00:02:17.400 --> 00:02:20.240 were very familiar with this war and this portion of 41 00:02:20.240 --> 00:02:22.719 the war because it's my favorite part of history. World 42 00:02:22.719 --> 00:02:24.879 War two in the Pacific is by far my favorite. 43 00:02:24.879 --> 00:02:27.039 I nerd out on it every chance I get every 44 00:02:27.080 --> 00:02:29.159 book I can read. I just I love it. It was 45 00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:32.439 terrible and a variety of reasons. I love it anyway. 46 00:02:33.400 --> 00:02:37.759 But people who aren't familiar with it don't realize just 47 00:02:37.960 --> 00:02:42.719 how fanatical the Japanese were in these places. They were 48 00:02:42.759 --> 00:02:47.039 fortifying these islands with pillboxes and caves and tonnolds and 49 00:02:47.120 --> 00:02:50.639 everything else, and they would pretty much die to the 50 00:02:50.719 --> 00:02:54.439 last man every time. They are the only army in 51 00:02:54.520 --> 00:02:58.400 all of World War Two that had no major units 52 00:02:58.439 --> 00:03:02.319 surrendering in mass It never happened. The Japanese would die 53 00:03:03.039 --> 00:03:07.960 to the last man. Now, that is a nightmare scenario. 54 00:03:08.080 --> 00:03:12.800 When you're trying to stop an enemy who wants to die. 55 00:03:13.080 --> 00:03:16.759 It's just very, very, very difficult. You have to go 56 00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:20.759 to ech stream lengths to do so. They'll hide in 57 00:03:20.800 --> 00:03:24.639 these bunkers, they will hide in these caves. They'll dig 58 00:03:24.680 --> 00:03:27.240 into the caves. They'll bring women and children in there. 59 00:03:27.479 --> 00:03:30.199 They'll dare you to come kill them, because they want 60 00:03:30.199 --> 00:03:32.319 to kill at least one of you before they go. 61 00:03:32.599 --> 00:03:37.360 And Ewojima specifically their commander knowing they were all going 62 00:03:37.439 --> 00:03:39.719 to die eventually. They knew they were going to lose. 63 00:03:39.759 --> 00:03:43.560 When we came, he said, your job is to take 64 00:03:43.759 --> 00:03:48.360 ten marines with you. You killed ten, and then you can die. 65 00:03:48.759 --> 00:03:52.240 And they took that stuff to heart. And that brings 66 00:03:52.319 --> 00:03:57.639 us to one of the most terrible, wonderful inventions in 67 00:03:57.759 --> 00:04:03.520 military history, the flame thrower. People have been using flames 68 00:04:04.240 --> 00:04:09.080 for military matters for a long, long, long time, but 69 00:04:09.800 --> 00:04:14.199 during World War Two is when the flame thrower really 70 00:04:14.240 --> 00:04:20.040 got prominence. How do you get Japanese guys who are 71 00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:22.920 daring you to come in? They want you to come in. 72 00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:25.480 How do you get them out of a big pillbox? 73 00:04:25.879 --> 00:04:28.199 How do you get them out of that cave? How 74 00:04:28.199 --> 00:04:31.000 do you get them out of that tunnel? They want 75 00:04:31.040 --> 00:04:32.319 you to come in, they want to die. What do 76 00:04:32.360 --> 00:04:38.439 you do? Well, you find a way to spray flame 77 00:04:38.920 --> 00:04:45.319 in there, and you cook them. The Japanese, by every 78 00:04:45.399 --> 00:04:50.600 written account, they were scared to death of flamethrowers for 79 00:04:50.639 --> 00:04:54.399 obvious reasons. Even people who want to die don't want 80 00:04:54.439 --> 00:04:57.639 to burn to death. It's a terrible, terrible way to go. 81 00:04:57.759 --> 00:05:03.480 Of course, Now what's that mean? It means when you 82 00:05:03.560 --> 00:05:09.120 were a flamethrower operator in the Pacific, your life expectancy 83 00:05:09.279 --> 00:05:12.839 was not very long because the Japanese, who didn't want 84 00:05:12.839 --> 00:05:15.639 to burn to death, as soon as they identified you, 85 00:05:16.079 --> 00:05:20.639 were shooting at you, trying to kill you. That brings 86 00:05:20.720 --> 00:05:23.199 us to the Medal of Honor citation for a herschel 87 00:05:23.399 --> 00:05:29.000 Woody Williams Hey honoring those who went above and beyond. 88 00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:39.240 It's Medal of Honor Monday. He was born in Quiet Dell, 89 00:05:39.480 --> 00:05:44.720 West Virginia, by the way, for conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity 90 00:05:44.720 --> 00:05:46.759 at the risk of his life above and beyond the 91 00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:50.279 call of duty as demolition sergeants serving with the twenty 92 00:05:50.319 --> 00:05:54.600 first Marines, third Marine Division in action against enemy Japanese 93 00:05:54.639 --> 00:05:58.279 forces on Iwo Jima Volcano Islands the twenty third of 94 00:05:58.279 --> 00:06:03.399 February nineteen forty five. Quick to volunteer his services when 95 00:06:03.439 --> 00:06:07.680 our tanks were maneuvering vainly to open a lane for 96 00:06:07.720 --> 00:06:12.480 the infantry through the network of reinforced concrete pillboxes buried 97 00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:18.600 mines in black volcanic sands, Corporal Williams daringly went forward 98 00:06:18.759 --> 00:06:23.040 alone to attempt the reduction of devastating machine gun fire 99 00:06:23.839 --> 00:06:28.399 from the unyielding positions covered by only four riflemen. He 100 00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:33.759 fought desperately for four hours under terrific enemy small arms fire, 101 00:06:34.160 --> 00:06:38.240 and repeatedly returned to his own lines to prepare demolition 102 00:06:38.439 --> 00:06:44.040 charges and obtain serviced flame throwers, struggling back frequently to 103 00:06:44.120 --> 00:06:47.040 the rear of hostile and placements to wipe out one 104 00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:51.680 position after another. Quick pause, sorry, a flame thrower back 105 00:06:51.759 --> 00:06:56.920 then had about thirty seconds of you depressing the trigger, 106 00:06:56.959 --> 00:07:00.000 about thirty seconds of flame, and then it was empty. 107 00:07:00.120 --> 00:07:01.600 So if you're wondering why he kept having to go 108 00:07:01.639 --> 00:07:03.480 back for war, it didn't have that much flame, and 109 00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:05.319 it you can only carry so much fuel back to 110 00:07:05.360 --> 00:07:09.120 the thing. On one occasion, he daringly mounted a pill 111 00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:12.879 box to insert the nozzle of his flamethrower through the 112 00:07:12.920 --> 00:07:17.600 air vent, killing the occupants and silencing the gun. On another, 113 00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:21.759 he grimly charged enemy riflemen who attempted to stop him 114 00:07:21.759 --> 00:07:25.360 with bayonets and destroyed them with a burst of flame 115 00:07:25.600 --> 00:07:30.920 from his weapon. His unyielding determination and extraordinary heroism in 116 00:07:30.959 --> 00:07:35.000 the face of ruthless enemy resistance were directly instrumental in 117 00:07:35.120 --> 00:07:39.240 neutralizing one of the most fanatically defended Japanese strong points. 118 00:07:39.319 --> 00:07:43.600 Encountered by his regiment and aided vitally in enabling his 119 00:07:43.720 --> 00:07:48.199 company to reach its objective. Corporal williams aggressive fighting spirit 120 00:07:48.480 --> 00:07:52.480 and valiant devotion to duty throughout this fiercely contested action 121 00:07:52.879 --> 00:07:57.600 sustain and enhance the highest traditions of US Naval service. 122 00:07:58.600 --> 00:08:02.079 Woody Williams is a legend in Marine Corps circles. I 123 00:08:02.160 --> 00:08:05.839 knew the name Woody Williams when I was in and 124 00:08:06.120 --> 00:08:10.879 just to again explain armor tanks, I'm gonna call it tanks, 125 00:08:10.879 --> 00:08:13.000 but this applies to all armored vehicles, of which there 126 00:08:13.040 --> 00:08:17.879 are many different kinds. It's very human to picture these 127 00:08:17.920 --> 00:08:22.560 things as virtually impenetrable, but nothing could be further from 128 00:08:22.560 --> 00:08:26.560 the case. The opposite side knows the equipment you have. 129 00:08:27.360 --> 00:08:30.680 They develop weapons, but I'll call them bazuokas, but they 130 00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:35.440 weren't necessarily that bazukas, rocket launchras. They develop weapons that 131 00:08:35.559 --> 00:08:39.840 a single man can carry that will take out your tank. 132 00:08:40.240 --> 00:08:43.519 You don't need an opposing tank, You just need something, 133 00:08:43.720 --> 00:08:47.200 some sort of a shorter fired weapon to take out 134 00:08:47.240 --> 00:08:51.720 their tank. The Japanese had tons of these things, and 135 00:08:51.799 --> 00:08:54.360 we did not have tanks that had the armor to 136 00:08:54.519 --> 00:08:57.519 withstand them. So if you're going from point A to 137 00:08:57.600 --> 00:09:00.960 point B on Ewo Jima, the Japanese are going to 138 00:09:01.000 --> 00:09:03.600 know all the routes you would take. They have pill 139 00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:07.879 boxes set up all throughout the routes. You'd roll out 140 00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:10.039 with four tanks and they'd all get knocked out in 141 00:09:10.039 --> 00:09:15.159 five minutes. Boom boom, boom, boom boom, they're all gone. 142 00:09:15.279 --> 00:09:19.559 You're watching your guys burn to death. You sit there 143 00:09:19.600 --> 00:09:22.559 and watch one of your tanks get hit, watch one 144 00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:25.799 of your guys crawl out of it on fire. You 145 00:09:26.480 --> 00:09:29.840 can get motivated to do some very brave things. And 146 00:09:29.879 --> 00:09:33.919 Woody Williams should have died about fifteen times that day, 147 00:09:34.279 --> 00:09:37.360 and most of the men who were with him did die. 148 00:09:37.759 --> 00:09:40.919 And Woody Williams would tell you to he's blue in 149 00:09:40.960 --> 00:09:44.600 the face that his medal of honor belonged to all 150 00:09:44.679 --> 00:09:47.360 of them, not just him. A lot of men were 151 00:09:47.399 --> 00:09:51.159 with him doing things just as brave. But they caught 152 00:09:51.159 --> 00:09:53.960 a bullet and didn't get the recognition. He had bullets 153 00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:59.000 bouncing off of his freaking flamethrower tank. Yeah, crazy story, 154 00:09:59.240 --> 00:10:01.879 Woody Williams. Remember that, all right, Let's talk about the 155 00:10:02.039 --> 00:10:06.039 age of all those no kings rioters why why were 156 00:10:06.080 --> 00:10:09.600 they so old? An amazing bit of audio. Actually, it 157 00:10:09.960 --> 00:10:15.159 is the Jesse Kelly Show on a fantastic Monday. Member. 158 00:10:15.200 --> 00:10:18.120 You can email the show whatever you'd like Jesse at 159 00:10:18.240 --> 00:10:21.080 Jesse kellyshow dot com. If you miss any part of it, 160 00:10:21.480 --> 00:10:25.679 including our Alexander the Great History segment from well hours 161 00:10:25.720 --> 00:10:29.320 from last Thursday, you can download the whole thing on iHeart, 162 00:10:29.440 --> 00:10:34.320 Spotify and iTunes. Now, let's discuss all the reporting that's 163 00:10:34.360 --> 00:10:40.080 out there today about how old all the rioters were, 164 00:10:40.919 --> 00:10:42.919 or most of the rioters where I know there was 165 00:10:42.960 --> 00:10:48.000 some young dirtball Antifa types, but all the reporting is 166 00:10:48.039 --> 00:10:51.279 remarking on the age. Everybody wasn't a bunch of young 167 00:10:51.360 --> 00:10:54.279 college students out there. It was a bunch of senior 168 00:10:54.360 --> 00:11:01.600 service democrats out there. Why's that happen? Well, listen to 169 00:11:01.600 --> 00:11:02.000 this woman. 170 00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:08.000 I just, I just I'm just so scared. I'm seventy 171 00:11:08.120 --> 00:11:12.919 four years old. I worry about everything, and I just 172 00:11:13.240 --> 00:11:18.679 I just I just seems so scary and upset, and 173 00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:24.799 I don't and I don't understand why people didn't. I 174 00:11:25.000 --> 00:11:26.840 would for this person. 175 00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:35.919 Seventy four years old, and she's a complete lunatic. Seventy 176 00:11:36.039 --> 00:11:44.120 four years old, and she's shattered emotionally, mentally, probably irreparably. 177 00:11:46.120 --> 00:11:51.440 Here's what's happened in the country. First, what do you 178 00:11:51.519 --> 00:11:55.200 picture when I when I say, close your eyes, don't 179 00:11:55.200 --> 00:11:57.840 do this if you're driving. But what do you picture 180 00:11:58.559 --> 00:12:00.960 when I say a seventy five four year old woman? 181 00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:07.759 A grandma? I bet you, I bet you she bakes 182 00:12:07.759 --> 00:12:15.240 some cookies. I bet you money. She loves her grandkids. Probably, 183 00:12:15.320 --> 00:12:18.559 I bet you. She probably has some sort of a hobby. 184 00:12:19.120 --> 00:12:22.720 Maybe she makes quilts. My grandma Helen, my mom's mom 185 00:12:22.759 --> 00:12:25.639 made quilts. That was her thing. She quilted. Maybe she 186 00:12:25.799 --> 00:12:30.879 plays bingo, Probably volunteers at her church. These are all 187 00:12:30.879 --> 00:12:33.759 images that pop into your head when you picture a 188 00:12:33.960 --> 00:12:38.919 seventy four year old woman. But let's talk about that. 189 00:12:39.559 --> 00:12:44.000 Why is that what pops into your head? Here's why 190 00:12:44.159 --> 00:12:49.000 you don't just magically turn into a seventy four year 191 00:12:49.000 --> 00:12:54.000 old woman who loves to quilt and make cookies. You 192 00:12:54.440 --> 00:12:57.679 end up as a seventy four year old woman who 193 00:12:57.799 --> 00:13:01.879 loves her grandkids and chocolate chip cookies because of the 194 00:13:02.039 --> 00:13:07.440 path you took in life. At some point in your life, 195 00:13:07.519 --> 00:13:11.720 you chose to start following a path of love and 196 00:13:11.879 --> 00:13:17.480 care and motherhood, and walking down that path year after 197 00:13:17.679 --> 00:13:21.480 year after year of your life has allowed you to 198 00:13:21.720 --> 00:13:25.919 end up as a seventy four year old woman, as 199 00:13:25.960 --> 00:13:31.360 a happy grandma who loves their grandkids and some delicious 200 00:13:31.360 --> 00:13:36.200 oatmeal raisin cookies. You don't magically get there by reaching 201 00:13:36.240 --> 00:13:40.360 the age of seventy four. You get there by the 202 00:13:40.519 --> 00:13:44.759 path you chose. Now, let's flip it the other way. 203 00:13:45.240 --> 00:13:49.320 How in the name of anything does a woman in 204 00:13:49.399 --> 00:13:53.240 this country end up at seventy four years old? This 205 00:13:53.960 --> 00:13:58.480 shattered Why we're all the no Kings protests a bunch 206 00:13:58.519 --> 00:13:59.919 of senior citizen demo. 207 00:14:00.600 --> 00:14:07.519 I just I'm just so scared. I'm seventy four years old. 208 00:14:10.279 --> 00:14:16.480 The path she chose. It's very common to look at 209 00:14:16.600 --> 00:14:21.159 young communists and think to yourselves, that's the most insane 210 00:14:21.240 --> 00:14:23.879 person on the planet. Look at this, Look at this 211 00:14:23.919 --> 00:14:27.320 twenty year old girl with her purple hair and a 212 00:14:27.320 --> 00:14:30.879 bunch of rings in her face. She clearly is the 213 00:14:30.919 --> 00:14:35.200 most mentally ill person in this country. In fact, we 214 00:14:35.320 --> 00:14:38.120 can't even save her. Let me tell you something you 215 00:14:38.200 --> 00:14:43.879 may not realize. She absolutely can be saved. Why she's 216 00:14:43.919 --> 00:14:49.000 still developing, Her mind is still developing, She's still figuring 217 00:14:49.039 --> 00:14:53.480 out who she is and what she believes. She has 218 00:14:53.919 --> 00:14:59.840 just now only started down the path of communism. She 219 00:15:00.120 --> 00:15:04.159 is just now beginning her journey on this path that 220 00:15:04.240 --> 00:15:08.000 will lead her to endless misery. And if we get 221 00:15:08.000 --> 00:15:12.000 her off of that path, changing her direction now, she 222 00:15:12.120 --> 00:15:15.960 can one hundred percent be saved. But if you are 223 00:15:16.120 --> 00:15:21.039 sixty five, seventy four years old, and for decades you've 224 00:15:21.159 --> 00:15:25.240 consumed American media, you watch NBC every night, you're reading 225 00:15:25.279 --> 00:15:30.080 the New York Times, you watch CNN, consuming endless amounts 226 00:15:30.120 --> 00:15:33.240 of poison, because that's exactly what it is. It's not biased, 227 00:15:33.519 --> 00:15:39.080 it doesn't lean left. It is dishonest, vile, communist poison. 228 00:15:39.480 --> 00:15:43.919 If you spent seventy four years walking down that path, 229 00:15:44.240 --> 00:15:46.759 you don't end up with quilts and grandkids and oatmeal 230 00:15:46.879 --> 00:15:51.080 raisin cookies. You end up some deranged nutcase crying on 231 00:15:51.159 --> 00:15:57.440 television because Donald Trump deported some illegals. You are unsavable, 232 00:15:57.679 --> 00:16:01.519 because you are so far down the path, your mind 233 00:16:01.799 --> 00:16:06.279 is gone, completely gone. We look at the young freak 234 00:16:06.519 --> 00:16:09.720 with purple hair, and we say that's the craziest person. 235 00:16:10.000 --> 00:16:13.000 I would argue the seventy four year old Democrat who's 236 00:16:13.080 --> 00:16:16.639 watched CNN for six decades, has a level of mental 237 00:16:16.639 --> 00:16:19.200 illness that has been rarely achieved in the history of 238 00:16:19.240 --> 00:16:27.759 the planet. Shattered in every possible way. Why were the 239 00:16:27.840 --> 00:16:31.200 only people who showed up at the protests sixty five plus? 240 00:16:32.000 --> 00:16:35.000 Because those are the only ones still watching NBC every 241 00:16:35.039 --> 00:16:42.679 single night, completely broken, so far down the path they 242 00:16:42.720 --> 00:16:46.759 have no idea what's up and what's down. It is 243 00:16:47.159 --> 00:16:51.919 the Jesse Kelly Show on a Monday, finishing up our 244 00:16:52.000 --> 00:16:55.879 talk here on why why is it that you? I 245 00:16:55.919 --> 00:16:58.399 bet you know someone like this, don't you? Do you 246 00:16:58.639 --> 00:17:04.880 know in older democrat, a senior citizen Democrat? Are they 247 00:17:04.920 --> 00:17:09.599 more or less broken than the young ones? You see? Why? 248 00:17:09.960 --> 00:17:12.319 Why are there seventy four year olds like this? 249 00:17:13.440 --> 00:17:19.519 I just I'm just so scared. I'm seventy four years old. 250 00:17:20.119 --> 00:17:24.519 I worry about because she traveled down a dark path 251 00:17:24.799 --> 00:17:31.599 years ago, and she now sits around consuming established legacy 252 00:17:31.720 --> 00:17:37.880 media sources that you rejected long ago, and she's broken 253 00:17:38.559 --> 00:17:44.200 beyond repair. It's a well picture this. What if I 254 00:17:44.240 --> 00:17:47.920 go home tonight and I have a bottle of whiskey, 255 00:17:48.640 --> 00:17:51.559 and I drink the entire bottle of whiskey a hooleball 256 00:17:51.720 --> 00:17:55.359 in one night. I'm gonna feel pretty bad tomorrow, right, 257 00:17:56.359 --> 00:18:00.559 but not the end of the world. Not going to 258 00:18:00.680 --> 00:18:03.319 kill me. I may need the day off of work, 259 00:18:03.400 --> 00:18:06.480 sitting home praying to the porcelain God, but it's not 260 00:18:06.519 --> 00:18:07.880 going to be the end of the world. Give me 261 00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:11.720 a day or two and I'll be back on my feet. Now, 262 00:18:12.680 --> 00:18:17.240 what if I do that every single night for a year? 263 00:18:18.480 --> 00:18:22.319 What happens to my body? My blood work, my liver, 264 00:18:22.880 --> 00:18:27.400 my organs bad? Right? Okay, what about five years? Every 265 00:18:27.480 --> 00:18:32.480 day for five years? What about ten? What about twenty 266 00:18:32.599 --> 00:18:38.440 years of that? That's what's happened to older democrats who 267 00:18:38.720 --> 00:18:43.799 never broke free. Every single year. Instead of getting older 268 00:18:43.839 --> 00:18:48.200 and wiser, they got older and dumber every single year, 269 00:18:48.519 --> 00:18:52.640 older and more insane every single year, older and more 270 00:18:52.640 --> 00:18:55.720 emotionally broken. And this is almost entirely the fault of 271 00:18:55.759 --> 00:18:58.599 the American media, I might point out, because they could 272 00:18:58.640 --> 00:19:02.960 still consume all the traditional news sources who've been lying 273 00:19:03.039 --> 00:19:06.960 about everything under the sun for decades. And so that's 274 00:19:07.000 --> 00:19:10.039 seventy four year old who should be wise, who should 275 00:19:10.079 --> 00:19:13.799 be up on it? It's more broken than anyone. What 276 00:19:13.799 --> 00:19:17.440 do they think about the protests? Oh, they're mostly peaceful. 277 00:19:17.640 --> 00:19:19.519 Why they think it was mostly peaceful. 278 00:19:19.680 --> 00:19:22.440 A study from the Media Research Center shows that from 279 00:19:22.680 --> 00:19:27.119 June eleventh to the twelfth, CNN and MSNBC personalities insisted 280 00:19:27.160 --> 00:19:33.079 the anti ice demonstrations were peaceful two hundred and eleven times. 281 00:19:33.119 --> 00:19:35.519 They one more time two hundred. 282 00:19:35.240 --> 00:19:37.960 And eleven times they were peaceful. 283 00:19:38.319 --> 00:19:41.799 Why do they think the stakes are so high? Why 284 00:19:41.839 --> 00:19:44.359 do they take to the streets with their stupid signs. 285 00:19:44.559 --> 00:19:48.039 Why is a seventy four year old woman, I'm so 286 00:19:48.319 --> 00:19:52.039 scared because she tunes in and believes this crab, Donald 287 00:19:52.079 --> 00:20:02.839 Trump is America's hitler. Yeah, that's why we think, because 288 00:20:02.880 --> 00:20:05.799 we have grandma's or maybe you are that grandma or grandpa, 289 00:20:06.240 --> 00:20:10.240 who are wonderful and wise and you need you need 290 00:20:10.279 --> 00:20:13.160 their guidance in life. That's why I love talking to 291 00:20:13.279 --> 00:20:16.079 order people so much. I just I like to learn 292 00:20:16.079 --> 00:20:18.880 from someone who's lived it. We like to project the 293 00:20:19.200 --> 00:20:22.680 age onto we see the age, and so we project 294 00:20:22.680 --> 00:20:25.200 that wisdom onto people who have the same wrinkles in 295 00:20:25.279 --> 00:20:28.880 the same gray hair. It don't work that way. You 296 00:20:28.960 --> 00:20:32.359 walk down that path for long enough, you're a goner. 297 00:20:32.400 --> 00:20:36.880 It's do some emails, Jesse before I rant. I'm in 298 00:20:36.920 --> 00:20:40.000 the army or I'm Army eighties and nineties proud of 299 00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:43.039 it to my core. But I was not impressed with 300 00:20:43.119 --> 00:20:46.319 the marching of the folks in the parade. He's talking 301 00:20:46.319 --> 00:20:48.759 about the Army parade. Some had no idea what they 302 00:20:48.759 --> 00:20:52.240 were doing. The NCO of those groups should have had 303 00:20:52.279 --> 00:20:55.119 them at half step. The pace was too slow for 304 00:20:55.200 --> 00:20:59.400 a forward march. Was it bad leadership or as our 305 00:20:59.440 --> 00:21:03.400 military in general this bad now? Or am I just 306 00:21:03.480 --> 00:21:07.960 expecting too much? Okay, So first of all, I thought 307 00:21:08.000 --> 00:21:11.119 that Army parade was really great. I thought it came 308 00:21:11.160 --> 00:21:14.880 off really, really great. I thought Trump doing did you 309 00:21:14.920 --> 00:21:18.480 watch any of his He did the reenlistment ceremony when 310 00:21:18.519 --> 00:21:20.960 you re enlist, which I never did. They have a 311 00:21:21.039 --> 00:21:24.000 ceremony for you. It's a celebration, right, thank you for 312 00:21:24.039 --> 00:21:27.839 staying in. Well, a bunch of Army soldiers re enlisted 313 00:21:27.920 --> 00:21:30.960 and Trump did the swearing in of their re enlistment. 314 00:21:31.039 --> 00:21:32.839 He did it as part of this Yeah, chrisy, it 315 00:21:32.880 --> 00:21:34.960 was super cool. They were standing in front of him 316 00:21:35.000 --> 00:21:36.799 with their hand up. I thought it was great, and 317 00:21:36.880 --> 00:21:39.440 I thought Trump handled it really well. Because it can 318 00:21:39.480 --> 00:21:41.920 be tempting to make that about you. His speech was 319 00:21:41.960 --> 00:21:45.119 all about them. Their service the Army that I thought 320 00:21:45.119 --> 00:21:47.160 it was awesome. I thought it was awesome. I have 321 00:21:47.319 --> 00:21:53.480 heard some complaints like this one about the marching about 322 00:21:53.519 --> 00:21:59.640 all that. Okay, I watched it. I noticed it wasn't 323 00:21:59.680 --> 00:22:02.880 necess sarely the most in sync marching in the world. 324 00:22:03.440 --> 00:22:06.559 And one of you old school army dogs like this guy, 325 00:22:06.640 --> 00:22:08.640 I'm certainly not going to try to talk you off 326 00:22:08.680 --> 00:22:12.720 the ledge on that. I expect better. I expect better. 327 00:22:12.759 --> 00:22:16.160 I get that. But I will say this if I 328 00:22:16.200 --> 00:22:18.440 have to make a political point about it, and I will. 329 00:22:18.839 --> 00:22:23.279 You ask about the state of our military today, Here's 330 00:22:23.359 --> 00:22:25.880 what's been explained to me. So I'm going to pass 331 00:22:25.960 --> 00:22:33.160 it along to you. The frontline troops, the combat front 332 00:22:33.200 --> 00:22:39.960 line troops. I'm talking infantry guys, the Marine Corps, infantry, Army, infantry, 333 00:22:40.119 --> 00:22:43.720 Army rangers. That the guys who are actually shooting and 334 00:22:43.799 --> 00:22:47.519 blowing up other people and getting shot and blown up themselves. 335 00:22:48.440 --> 00:22:52.480 They are as good now as they have ever been. 336 00:22:52.559 --> 00:22:55.000 I'm passing along what I've been told. Okay, they are 337 00:22:55.039 --> 00:22:57.920 as good now as they've ever been. Tactics only get 338 00:22:57.920 --> 00:23:01.319 better over time, right, you learn as you learned, the 339 00:23:01.359 --> 00:23:05.240 tactics get better, training gets better you learn what works 340 00:23:05.279 --> 00:23:08.640 doesn't work. Our guys now are as good as they've 341 00:23:08.720 --> 00:23:13.799 ever been. But remember, everybody puts a different number on this. 342 00:23:14.039 --> 00:23:18.839 I was always told for every one frontline guy, it 343 00:23:18.960 --> 00:23:22.839 takes seven or eight people behind him. I'm talking about 344 00:23:22.880 --> 00:23:26.039 supply people in medical and cooks and things. It takes 345 00:23:26.079 --> 00:23:29.960 a bunch of support personnel to keep the frontline guys 346 00:23:30.480 --> 00:23:34.559 fed and watered, to have everything they need. Okay, So 347 00:23:34.599 --> 00:23:36.680 every time you see one of those army ranger types, 348 00:23:36.720 --> 00:23:38.160 he needs a lot of guys, but he needs the 349 00:23:38.160 --> 00:23:41.039 supply clerk. Those are important jobs. All those jobs are important. 350 00:23:42.039 --> 00:23:46.000 Our frontline guys are better than they've ever been. The 351 00:23:46.039 --> 00:23:48.200 people behind them are as bad as they've ever been. 352 00:23:50.400 --> 00:23:52.559 I'm passing along what I've been told. I haven't been 353 00:23:52.599 --> 00:23:54.400 in since two thousand and four, so that I'm not 354 00:23:54.480 --> 00:23:58.240 giving you first hand stuff. I was in the infantry. 355 00:23:58.480 --> 00:24:02.200 We never really worked with anyone else for the most part, 356 00:24:02.319 --> 00:24:05.559 so I wasn't with the supply clerk unless I needed 357 00:24:05.559 --> 00:24:07.119 to go and dow and grab something I wasn't. We 358 00:24:07.119 --> 00:24:10.440 didn't do much of that the infantry, at least when 359 00:24:10.480 --> 00:24:13.559 I was in the infantry, stayed with the infantry we 360 00:24:13.640 --> 00:24:16.559 trained with the infantry. That was who we stuck with. 361 00:24:17.400 --> 00:24:20.559 What has been told to me again is that the 362 00:24:20.599 --> 00:24:24.039 frontline troops are as great as ever and their backup 363 00:24:24.119 --> 00:24:30.640 is as bad as ever. Have you seen pictures? I 364 00:24:30.640 --> 00:24:34.200 saw a picture recently they were having a ceremony the Navy, 365 00:24:34.359 --> 00:24:37.240 was of a bunch of people who'd made I think 366 00:24:37.240 --> 00:24:38.799 it was Master Chief. I forget what it was. I 367 00:24:39.079 --> 00:24:43.160 don't want to misspeak on the subject, but I think 368 00:24:43.200 --> 00:24:44.960 there were seven or eight of them in the picture. 369 00:24:45.680 --> 00:24:48.039 At least half of them were fat. One lady was 370 00:24:48.079 --> 00:24:52.599 morbidly obese. It looked like if she farted, her Navy 371 00:24:52.680 --> 00:24:55.319 uniform was just going to blow up. That's it looked 372 00:24:56.559 --> 00:25:04.920 unbelievably unprofessional. Spent years filling up the military with a 373 00:25:04.960 --> 00:25:10.599 bunch of dirty commies, lowering the standards. You spend five 374 00:25:10.720 --> 00:25:14.160 of your eight hours of the day learning about your 375 00:25:14.160 --> 00:25:18.200 white privilege. They had to try to shoehorn women into 376 00:25:18.240 --> 00:25:20.799 as many positions as possible, so they had tried to 377 00:25:20.839 --> 00:25:24.640 lower this standard and lower that standard, lower the standard 378 00:25:24.680 --> 00:25:28.880 for the men too. As standards get lower, you've filled 379 00:25:28.960 --> 00:25:32.359 up the military with a whole host of turds. And 380 00:25:32.440 --> 00:25:37.000 the problem with that is that army ranger. He needs 381 00:25:37.039 --> 00:25:40.559 those people behind him. He needs good people behind him. 382 00:25:41.200 --> 00:25:44.000 He can't be tough and shoot people in the face 383 00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:47.519 if he can't eat. So we'll move off this. I'm 384 00:25:47.519 --> 00:25:50.359 gonna do some other emails, but that's the story. We'll 385 00:25:50.359 --> 00:25:55.960 be back. It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, 386 00:25:56.359 --> 00:25:59.720 wonderful Monday. Remember you can email the show Jesse at 387 00:26:00.079 --> 00:26:03.319 Jesse calthieshow dot com. Before we get back to the emails, 388 00:26:03.319 --> 00:26:07.440 here's another great example. Why is that seventy year old 389 00:26:07.519 --> 00:26:11.599 man instead of being this wise, wonderful soul like maybe 390 00:26:11.640 --> 00:26:14.359 you are or your grandpa was. Why is he a 391 00:26:14.400 --> 00:26:19.599 deranged lunatic with a now King's sign on Saturday? Why 392 00:26:19.880 --> 00:26:23.559 is he still tunes into CBS all the time? Old 393 00:26:23.599 --> 00:26:26.839 habits die haard. He tunes in to face the nation 394 00:26:26.960 --> 00:26:30.119 to get the news. He hears questions like this from 395 00:26:30.160 --> 00:26:30.839 Margaret Brennan. 396 00:26:30.960 --> 00:26:31.640 He referred to that. 397 00:26:31.759 --> 00:26:35.039 As the threat from the radical left, an overwhelming show 398 00:26:35.079 --> 00:26:37.799 of force to end the rights and talked about communities 399 00:26:37.799 --> 00:26:41.720 being terrorized. Given the amount of tention in the country 400 00:26:41.799 --> 00:26:44.640 right now, is that really the language to use? 401 00:26:45.400 --> 00:26:48.079
