WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.600 --> 00:00:04.839 It is The Jesse Kelly Show. Another hour of The 2 00:00:04.960 --> 00:00:08.960 Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Tuesday. I'm so 3 00:00:09.160 --> 00:00:11.759 happy to be back, and we have some things we're 4 00:00:11.800 --> 00:00:14.080 gonna go over this hour. Yes, we're gonna talk about 5 00:00:14.119 --> 00:00:18.760 Ihan Omar getting filthy, stupid rich while she's a member 6 00:00:18.800 --> 00:00:23.280 of Congress. We're gonna talk about gen Z. This article 7 00:00:23.399 --> 00:00:25.800 is complaining about gen Z and their work ethic. We'll 8 00:00:25.839 --> 00:00:28.719 have an honest talk about that. Apparently we're out breeding 9 00:00:28.760 --> 00:00:32.640 the communists and that's wonderful emails. More coming up. But 10 00:00:34.520 --> 00:00:37.039 you know what time it is, Well, actually you might 11 00:00:37.159 --> 00:00:40.679 not because it's Tuesday and not Monday. On Mondays where 12 00:00:40.719 --> 00:00:43.759 this normally happens. The start of the second hour, we 13 00:00:43.799 --> 00:00:46.960 do Medal of Honor Monday, where we take a Medal 14 00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:50.479 of Honor citation and we read it. You can do this. 15 00:00:50.640 --> 00:00:53.320 I've encouraged you many times. You can do this when 16 00:00:53.359 --> 00:00:57.439 you're by yourself, bored, maybe you're scrolling through social media. 17 00:00:58.079 --> 00:01:00.759 There's a million websites. They're all free. You can scroll 18 00:01:00.799 --> 00:01:03.119 through these and read them. It's like read an action 19 00:01:03.320 --> 00:01:06.760 movie stuff. You can read it to your children, to 20 00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:10.079 your class, you can do it at work. You know 21 00:01:10.120 --> 00:01:12.200 you can do these at work. Nothing political about it. 22 00:01:12.519 --> 00:01:18.200 Do it at work. People love it. It's healthy. You remember 23 00:01:18.280 --> 00:01:22.040 the men and remember the deeds. You honor them, as 24 00:01:22.120 --> 00:01:24.480 we should do as a society, those who gave up 25 00:01:24.519 --> 00:01:26.760 so much, those who did so much on our behalf. 26 00:01:27.079 --> 00:01:30.319 Anyone can do this. This is nothing I do now 27 00:01:31.239 --> 00:01:34.920 that said. Jewish producer Chris and producer Corey have been 28 00:01:34.920 --> 00:01:37.480 working on something and I wanted to let you know 29 00:01:37.519 --> 00:01:43.200 about it. If you enjoy me reading these. They have 30 00:01:43.400 --> 00:01:49.840 started to put these things up online on YouTube. But 31 00:01:50.239 --> 00:01:52.519 to get there, you just have to stay with me. 32 00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:54.680 You have to go to it's called weight, it's called 33 00:01:54.879 --> 00:01:57.280 X Now. I was gonna say go to Twitter, but 34 00:01:57.359 --> 00:01:59.760 it's not called Twitter anymore. If you go to the 35 00:01:59.799 --> 00:02:03.519 sh page, just look up Jesse Kelly Show on Twitter 36 00:02:03.640 --> 00:02:06.439 or on X there's a link to all of them 37 00:02:06.480 --> 00:02:09.840 at the top. There are some already there, eight nine 38 00:02:09.840 --> 00:02:11.919 and something like that. There will be more. They're going 39 00:02:11.960 --> 00:02:15.039 to keep adding these. So if you don't want to 40 00:02:15.039 --> 00:02:17.000 say it yourself or read it yourself, maybe you want 41 00:02:17.000 --> 00:02:18.560 to play it in the car in the living room. 42 00:02:18.719 --> 00:02:20.719 Then you just want to hear the sultry sounds of 43 00:02:20.759 --> 00:02:23.719 my voice, and I can hardly blame you. What Chris, 44 00:02:24.599 --> 00:02:30.199 you can just go there? Okay, Now, who is the 45 00:02:30.199 --> 00:02:34.199 most little trivia question? Most don't know? Who's the most 46 00:02:34.240 --> 00:02:42.360 decorated American from the Vietnam War? Robert Lewis Howard, Robert L. 47 00:02:42.759 --> 00:02:47.360 Howard In the future, when someone asks you that question, 48 00:02:47.439 --> 00:02:51.759 if you were ever asked Robert L. Howard, he was 49 00:02:51.879 --> 00:02:54.919 US Army. Now I need to explain just a couple 50 00:02:55.039 --> 00:02:59.960 things for background before I go into the actual citation, 51 00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:02.520 because I think the reason I wanted to expand on 52 00:03:02.560 --> 00:03:05.759 this a bit tonight is one, I love this subject, 53 00:03:06.039 --> 00:03:11.120 the Vietnam War, Mac Vsong other stuff. I love this subject. Two, 54 00:03:11.199 --> 00:03:14.680 I think when you understand some background on the man 55 00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:18.520 and the unit and the mission, I think it helps. 56 00:03:18.759 --> 00:03:21.120 I think it helps the citation come alive. I think 57 00:03:21.120 --> 00:03:25.840 it makes it more interesting. So, first of all, Howard, 58 00:03:26.159 --> 00:03:29.199 I'm just gonna call him Howard. Robert Howard was from 59 00:03:29.479 --> 00:03:33.639 a military family. His father was in the one hundred 60 00:03:33.639 --> 00:03:36.560 and first. They are born in World War Two. That 61 00:03:36.919 --> 00:03:42.159 is an amazingly consistent theme when you read about, when 62 00:03:42.240 --> 00:03:45.520 you watch a documentary about, when you learn about the 63 00:03:45.680 --> 00:03:51.120 really hardcore veterans from Vietnam. So many of them are 64 00:03:51.280 --> 00:03:56.039 children of World War Two hardcore veterans, and they just 65 00:03:56.120 --> 00:04:00.400 grew up that way, super patriotic. A man's step up 66 00:04:00.400 --> 00:04:04.879 and serves. There's that strain. And there are guys, get this. 67 00:04:05.560 --> 00:04:10.360 There are guys who fought as lions in World War 68 00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:15.080 Two who were still in the service and went to Vietnam. 69 00:04:15.639 --> 00:04:17.959 One of them even joined MACV SAG, which I'll go 70 00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:20.279 into in a moment because she missed our MACV SOG episode. 71 00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:22.439 One of them, at least one of them that I 72 00:04:22.480 --> 00:04:26.000 know of, went into mac V SAG. This friggin guy 73 00:04:26.480 --> 00:04:32.240 was just a lion, but he bowed out early because 74 00:04:32.279 --> 00:04:35.639 he said he was too old and he was worried 75 00:04:35.920 --> 00:04:37.920 that he couldn't keep up with the younger guys and 76 00:04:37.959 --> 00:04:41.040 he would get someone killed because he couldn't keep up anymore. 77 00:04:41.079 --> 00:04:43.240 That's how old he was. So instead he just went 78 00:04:43.279 --> 00:04:45.759 to the camp it was in charge of supply. Hey, 79 00:04:45.800 --> 00:04:48.959 you need a special machine gun. He want some poison darts. 80 00:04:49.199 --> 00:04:53.120 I've got you. It's just this really cool thread from 81 00:04:53.120 --> 00:04:56.120 World War Two to Vietnam that I keep running into 82 00:04:56.319 --> 00:04:58.120 that I think you would enjoy it. Anyway, the guy's 83 00:04:58.199 --> 00:05:02.040 dad was hunting for a stairborn World War Two. He 84 00:05:02.720 --> 00:05:05.720 is an Army dude through and through Robert L. Howard. Now, 85 00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:10.160 let's do some MacFee sag talk. I already did a 86 00:05:10.199 --> 00:05:12.079 long I think I did at least an hour on 87 00:05:12.120 --> 00:05:14.040 it one day. That you can go look up if you, 88 00:05:14.079 --> 00:05:18.800 if you, if this subject fascinates you. But Military Assistance 89 00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:27.199 Command Vietnam Studies and Observation Group. That's a long, convoluted term, 90 00:05:27.240 --> 00:05:29.680 isn't it. What does that even mean? Well, it was 91 00:05:29.759 --> 00:05:34.800 convoluted for a reason. These were the super secret commandos 92 00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:39.199 doing super secret things in Vietnam, the kind of things 93 00:05:39.279 --> 00:05:42.120 they make movies about the kind of things. If you 94 00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:45.079 talk to your son about them, his eyes get as 95 00:05:45.079 --> 00:05:50.120 big as saucers. It's known as the Secret War. Green Berets, 96 00:05:50.839 --> 00:05:56.319 Navy Seals, Air Force commandos. They came together to form 97 00:05:57.120 --> 00:06:03.319 this super elite unit, completely volunteer, and get this. It 98 00:06:03.480 --> 00:06:07.199 was so dangerous, by far, and I mean by far, 99 00:06:07.720 --> 00:06:11.000 the highest death rate in Vietnam. More men died than 100 00:06:11.040 --> 00:06:13.959 made it home, more men died than made it home. 101 00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:18.160 You are behind enemy lines at all times, being hunted 102 00:06:18.240 --> 00:06:23.720 at all times, outnumbered at all times, and it was 103 00:06:23.879 --> 00:06:28.720 so dangerous that you could withdraw at any time. No 104 00:06:28.800 --> 00:06:31.800 one will harass you, no one will make fun of you. 105 00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:34.600 That's how you left. You just walked in and said, 106 00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:38.639 that's it. I can't I can't do it anymore. And 107 00:06:38.759 --> 00:06:41.639 every book I've read on it reinforces the fact that 108 00:06:41.680 --> 00:06:45.040 you cannot do it without end. There's only so much 109 00:06:45.120 --> 00:06:48.079 in the tank. There's only so many times you can 110 00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:51.399 dance with the devil, and eventually you have to leave. 111 00:06:51.519 --> 00:06:55.439 You just the human mind can't do it forever. Now, 112 00:06:55.959 --> 00:06:58.720 how were the teams set up? Well, there are a 113 00:06:58.759 --> 00:07:01.480 couple different terms, and one of them is going to 114 00:07:01.560 --> 00:07:05.240 come back when I do this Medal of Honor citation. First, 115 00:07:05.639 --> 00:07:09.959 they were known as recon teams. This was kind of 116 00:07:09.959 --> 00:07:11.480 the main I want to say, this was really the 117 00:07:11.519 --> 00:07:15.720 main driver on it. And RT and they usually not 118 00:07:15.800 --> 00:07:20.000 always usually had the names of states. There's RT Idaho 119 00:07:20.120 --> 00:07:24.560 and RT Kansas and RT. Now what were they? They 120 00:07:24.600 --> 00:07:28.399 would have two or three usually green berets sometimes Navy 121 00:07:28.399 --> 00:07:35.040 seals green berets, and then some form of indigenous troops. 122 00:07:36.160 --> 00:07:40.160 I need to pause and explain what that means. They 123 00:07:40.199 --> 00:07:44.800 took a couple different forms in China, there are these 124 00:07:45.279 --> 00:07:51.319 rural tribal peoples thought of as minorities, certainly thought of 125 00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:56.240 as lesser. In China, they were known as Nungs n 126 00:07:56.360 --> 00:08:03.079 Ung Chinese Nungs. They were mercenaries, no question about it. 127 00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:07.560 You would have two or three green Berets on a 128 00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:11.319 recon team. Let's say it's RT Iowa. You'd have two 129 00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:14.839 or three of these guys green beret types, and then 130 00:08:14.879 --> 00:08:21.600 you'd have seven eight of the Chinese Nungs that would 131 00:08:21.639 --> 00:08:25.680 be a recontein or. And this will applied to our citations. Specifically, 132 00:08:26.480 --> 00:08:31.279 there were Montagnards. What are the Montagnards. They're known as yards. 133 00:08:31.319 --> 00:08:34.840 What were they? That was, I believe a French term 134 00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:39.799 known as mountain people. The Vietnamese North and South Vietnamese, 135 00:08:39.799 --> 00:08:43.679 I should point out, hated them, thought they were lesser 136 00:08:43.759 --> 00:08:48.840 human beings. They were stockier, a little thicker, and darker 137 00:08:48.919 --> 00:08:53.039 in skin than normal Vietnamese people. As you can imagine 138 00:08:53.120 --> 00:08:56.120 by the name mountain people. They really lived in the highlands, 139 00:08:56.200 --> 00:08:59.559 the mountains, and there were different Montagnard tribes. You know, 140 00:08:59.600 --> 00:09:01.960 it's not they weren't all mountain yards. There were different 141 00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:05.960 clicks if you will, but they would they would. I 142 00:09:05.960 --> 00:09:09.440 would say they were probably the most common troop type 143 00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:14.320 that would be attached to these recon teams. Now I 144 00:09:14.399 --> 00:09:17.039 mentioned the recon teams were the main ones. There's two 145 00:09:17.080 --> 00:09:19.039 other things I just want to mention briefly. One or 146 00:09:19.120 --> 00:09:21.399 apply and one will not. There was something known as 147 00:09:21.519 --> 00:09:25.000 hatchet force. Sounds really cool. Those are not small teams. 148 00:09:25.279 --> 00:09:28.320 Those are large raiding parties. You go raid, wipe out 149 00:09:28.320 --> 00:09:30.039 of Vietnamese camp and then get out. So we're not 150 00:09:30.039 --> 00:09:32.600 going to focus on that right now. And then there's 151 00:09:32.639 --> 00:09:39.320 something known as a bright light, a bright light. What 152 00:09:39.559 --> 00:09:43.799 is a bright light? Oftentimes you will have guys standing 153 00:09:43.840 --> 00:09:47.519 by on a bright light. You stand by on a 154 00:09:47.559 --> 00:09:52.480 bright light when someone goes out, when a team goes out, 155 00:09:52.799 --> 00:09:55.799 and what are you there for? You probably already imagined it. 156 00:09:56.639 --> 00:09:59.399 You're there to go rescue them if they get in 157 00:09:59.440 --> 00:10:04.919 bad trouble and darker and sadder, if a team goes missing, 158 00:10:06.240 --> 00:10:10.039 you go try to find them. You go out on 159 00:10:10.080 --> 00:10:14.159 a bright light. They were considered some of the most 160 00:10:14.240 --> 00:10:17.759 dangerous missions because well, there's a reason the last team 161 00:10:17.799 --> 00:10:22.600 went missing. There is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Fantastic, 162 00:10:22.759 --> 00:10:25.879 Fantastic Tuesday back in the chair, and I'm finally gonna 163 00:10:25.879 --> 00:10:28.879 get to the actual medal of honor citation now on 164 00:10:29.000 --> 00:10:31.679 a Medal of Honor Tuesday. But as I just mentioned, 165 00:10:31.679 --> 00:10:35.480 going into the break a bright light mission for mac 166 00:10:35.559 --> 00:10:38.559 Vie SAG, they were some of the most dangerous missions 167 00:10:39.039 --> 00:10:42.000 because what that meant was a team was either under 168 00:10:42.039 --> 00:10:46.120 fire and needed desperate help or and this is just 169 00:10:46.399 --> 00:10:52.080 unbelievably creepy how often this happened. They just disappeared. You 170 00:10:52.200 --> 00:10:54.879 drop them into the jungle in Laos or Cambodia. These 171 00:10:54.879 --> 00:11:00.080 were always behind enemy lines. They were always surrounded and 172 00:11:00.159 --> 00:11:04.159 sometimes just gone completely gone, and you have to go 173 00:11:04.240 --> 00:11:08.440 out and try to find them, rescue them. If they're POW's, 174 00:11:08.480 --> 00:11:10.600 try to break them out, if they're in a fight, 175 00:11:10.639 --> 00:11:13.519 try to It's a very very dangerous thing to be 176 00:11:13.600 --> 00:11:18.639 on a bright light. Robert Lewis Howard did more tours 177 00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:23.159 in Vietnam than you can possibly imagine. He was is 178 00:11:23.960 --> 00:11:27.159 he's passed away now, but a macv SAW legend. Really, 179 00:11:27.159 --> 00:11:31.480 he's a legend in any special operations community. And he 180 00:11:31.679 --> 00:11:36.559 found himself on one of these bright lights looking for 181 00:11:36.679 --> 00:11:41.039 a team that had just gone missing. And as I mentioned, 182 00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:43.679 you are always in Laos. You were always in Cambodia, 183 00:11:43.919 --> 00:11:47.200 and you are always surrounded. And later in the war, 184 00:11:47.240 --> 00:11:50.440 which this took place in nineteen sixty eight, later in 185 00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:53.120 the war, the Vietnamese had figured out what was happening, 186 00:11:53.840 --> 00:11:57.279 and they had come up with things like radio locations, 187 00:11:57.519 --> 00:12:00.799 direction finders. They had come up with their own hunter 188 00:12:00.960 --> 00:12:05.960 killer teams specially designed to hunt down recon teams and 189 00:12:06.080 --> 00:12:08.559 kill them. That's what they were there to do. They 190 00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:11.200 knew these guys would land, they would hunt them down 191 00:12:11.279 --> 00:12:15.399 and kill them, and it happened a lot so. Born 192 00:12:16.279 --> 00:12:21.039 in Opelika, Alabama, Robert Lewis Howard. 193 00:12:21.279 --> 00:12:26.480 Hey honoring those who went above and beyond its Medal 194 00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:37.360 of Honor Monday. 195 00:12:34.159 --> 00:12:38.159 For conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity in action at the risk 196 00:12:38.200 --> 00:12:40.279 of his life above and beyond the call of duty. 197 00:12:40.639 --> 00:12:45.799 First Lieutenant Howard distinguished himself while serving as platoon sergeant 198 00:12:45.840 --> 00:12:49.480 of an American Vietnamese platoon which was on a mission 199 00:12:49.559 --> 00:12:54.120 to rescue a missing American soldier in enemy controlled territory 200 00:12:54.440 --> 00:12:57.799 in the Republic of Vietnam. The platoon had left its 201 00:12:57.840 --> 00:13:01.200 helicopter landing zone and was moving out on a mission 202 00:13:01.519 --> 00:13:05.360 when it was attacked by an estimated two company force. 203 00:13:06.039 --> 00:13:08.279 During that pause for a second, remember I said this 204 00:13:08.360 --> 00:13:11.399 is probably a ten man team roughly, I don't know exactly. 205 00:13:11.840 --> 00:13:15.200 If you're going up against two companies, that's probably two 206 00:13:15.200 --> 00:13:18.159 to four hundred men you're going to die. During the 207 00:13:18.159 --> 00:13:22.240 initial engagement, First Lieutenant Howard was wounded and his weapon 208 00:13:22.279 --> 00:13:26.320 destroyed by a grenade explosion. Pause. Sorry again, when I 209 00:13:26.360 --> 00:13:30.320 say wounded. His hands were wrecked. They were still attached, 210 00:13:30.559 --> 00:13:33.600 but they were unusable when his weapon was essentially blown 211 00:13:33.679 --> 00:13:35.759 up in his hands, so he didn't have usable hands. 212 00:13:35.759 --> 00:13:39.320 At this point, First Lieutenant Howard saw his platoon leader 213 00:13:39.639 --> 00:13:43.960 had been wounded seriously and was exposed to fire. Although 214 00:13:44.039 --> 00:13:49.200 unable to walk in weaponless, first Lieutenant Howard unhesitatingly crawled 215 00:13:49.240 --> 00:13:52.519 through a hail of fire to retrieve his wounded leader. 216 00:13:53.200 --> 00:13:57.240 As First Lieutenant Howard was administering first aid and removing 217 00:13:57.279 --> 00:14:00.720 the officers equipment, an enemy bullets druck one of the 218 00:14:00.759 --> 00:14:06.440 ammunition pouches on the lieutenant's belt, detonating several magazines of ammunition. 219 00:14:07.399 --> 00:14:12.200 First Lieutenant Howard momentarily sought cover. Pause. He didn't momentarily 220 00:14:12.240 --> 00:14:15.159 seek cover. It blew up on his belt and he 221 00:14:15.279 --> 00:14:20.120 was blown eight feet away, momentarily sought cover, and then 222 00:14:20.320 --> 00:14:23.679 realizing that he must rejoin the patoon, which had already 223 00:14:23.679 --> 00:14:27.720 been disorganized by the enemy attack, he again began dragging 224 00:14:27.759 --> 00:14:31.799 the seriously wounded officer toward the platoon area. Through his 225 00:14:31.879 --> 00:14:36.840 outstanding example of indomitable courage and bravery, First Lieutenant Howard 226 00:14:36.960 --> 00:14:40.360 was able to rally the patoon into administering first daid 227 00:14:40.360 --> 00:14:44.120 to the wounded, giving encouragement to the defenders, and directing 228 00:14:44.159 --> 00:14:48.120 their fire on the encircling enemy. For three and one 229 00:14:48.200 --> 00:14:53.159 half hours, First Lieutenant Howard's small force and supporting aircraft 230 00:14:53.480 --> 00:14:58.279 successfully repulsed enemy attacks and finally were in sufficient control 231 00:14:58.639 --> 00:15:02.799 to permit the landing of red helicopters. First Lieutenant Howard 232 00:15:02.879 --> 00:15:06.279 personally supervised the loading of his men and did not 233 00:15:06.480 --> 00:15:11.080 leave the bullet sweat landing zone until all were aboard safely. 234 00:15:11.720 --> 00:15:15.639 First Lieutenant Howard's gallantry in action his complete devotion to 235 00:15:15.679 --> 00:15:18.120 the welfare of his men at the risk of his life, 236 00:15:18.159 --> 00:15:21.080 were in keeping with the highest traditions of military service, 237 00:15:21.399 --> 00:15:25.320 and reflect great credit upon himself, his unit in the 238 00:15:25.399 --> 00:15:28.120 US Army. And I missmoked there I need to clarify 239 00:15:28.159 --> 00:15:30.720 something this was not a ten man unit. I believe 240 00:15:30.799 --> 00:15:34.039 it was thirty that he had on this bright light, 241 00:15:34.279 --> 00:15:36.279 and almost all of them died. I think seven of 242 00:15:36.320 --> 00:15:38.960 them made it out alive. They didn't leave their dead 243 00:15:39.000 --> 00:15:43.799 behind either. They would stay there under fire and load 244 00:15:43.840 --> 00:15:46.480 the dead men on at risk of dying themselves. They 245 00:15:46.519 --> 00:15:51.879 would go out on these missions when they knew everybody 246 00:15:52.000 --> 00:15:54.799 was dead. They would go on a mission just to 247 00:15:54.840 --> 00:15:58.320 get the dead bodies, load them up and bring them 248 00:15:58.360 --> 00:16:01.559 home so they could go home to their families and 249 00:16:01.639 --> 00:16:07.399 be buried with honor. That is a taste of what 250 00:16:07.440 --> 00:16:10.720 these guys did. I have encouraged you before, I will 251 00:16:10.799 --> 00:16:13.919 encourage you to get again. Go pick up a book 252 00:16:13.960 --> 00:16:19.159 on McFee soong if you are not a reader like Chris. Look, 253 00:16:19.200 --> 00:16:22.840 there's a million podcast episodes. These guys are allowed to 254 00:16:22.840 --> 00:16:26.320 do interviews. Now there's a YouTube. You can go. Look 255 00:16:26.360 --> 00:16:30.879 this stuff up. You will be thumbfounded that men like 256 00:16:30.960 --> 00:16:37.480 this exist heroes. Now let's talk about Ihan Omar. It's terrible. Oh, 257 00:16:37.639 --> 00:16:42.519 it is the Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Tuesday. 258 00:16:42.559 --> 00:16:46.480 Remember you can email the show Jesse at Jesse kellyshow 259 00:16:46.600 --> 00:16:49.240 dot com. Then we'll get to that here in just 260 00:16:49.279 --> 00:16:52.240 a moment, meaning we'll get to some emails, but I 261 00:16:52.360 --> 00:16:54.120 just want to touch on this. This is something we 262 00:16:54.200 --> 00:17:00.240 brought up before that people become politicians. Not every one, 263 00:17:00.519 --> 00:17:06.720 not everyone at all, but many become politicians because it 264 00:17:06.839 --> 00:17:11.319 gives them access to the things rich people have without 265 00:17:11.440 --> 00:17:17.920 having to actually accomplish anything. Most people, if you're being honest, 266 00:17:18.440 --> 00:17:21.559 most people want to be able to enjoy the finer 267 00:17:21.599 --> 00:17:25.400 things in life. I'm not saying you sit around dreaming 268 00:17:25.440 --> 00:17:29.359 about money and mansions and sports cars and things like that. 269 00:17:29.400 --> 00:17:31.799 At least I hope you don't. Hope you're at least 270 00:17:31.839 --> 00:17:36.279 somewhat content with where you are. But who doesn't like 271 00:17:36.319 --> 00:17:39.839 a good stake? Who wouldn't fly first class all the 272 00:17:39.839 --> 00:17:43.799 time if they could? People like the finer things in life, 273 00:17:43.880 --> 00:17:47.000 they do how do you get those? 274 00:17:48.039 --> 00:17:48.119 For? 275 00:17:48.240 --> 00:17:53.680 Some they start their own small business, hard work, dedication. 276 00:17:55.200 --> 00:18:02.319 Others they become politicians. Become a politician and then find 277 00:18:02.359 --> 00:18:07.559 a way to swindle somebody out of money, find a 278 00:18:07.599 --> 00:18:11.640 way to use your position of power to bloodsuck money 279 00:18:11.720 --> 00:18:15.400 from someone. This is a headline from Drew Berkleish dot com. 280 00:18:16.279 --> 00:18:22.440 Ilhan Omar's rapid one year three thousand, five hundred percent 281 00:18:22.640 --> 00:18:29.160 wealth growth tied directly to her husband's consulting firm. So 282 00:18:30.680 --> 00:18:34.680 you have to put in financial disclosures when you're running 283 00:18:34.839 --> 00:18:38.880 for office, for public or federal office in America, when 284 00:18:38.920 --> 00:18:41.440 you're running, I had to do this back when I 285 00:18:41.519 --> 00:18:45.799 ran for Congress. This is something if you're elected, you 286 00:18:45.880 --> 00:18:48.880 have to keep doing. It's not just the one off. 287 00:18:48.920 --> 00:18:51.920 You have to keep doing it. When ilhan Omar was 288 00:18:51.920 --> 00:18:59.920 first elected in twenty nineteen, her net worth was negative 289 00:19:00.440 --> 00:19:04.839 forty five thousand dollars. That was her networth. It's the 290 00:19:04.920 --> 00:19:11.319 year twenty twenty five. Her net worth is thirty million dollars. 291 00:19:12.119 --> 00:19:18.079 How well johan Omar is married. No, not the brother 292 00:19:18.599 --> 00:19:24.119 a new one. Bill han Omar is married. Her husband 293 00:19:24.480 --> 00:19:30.880 runs a Democrat consulting firm. Bilhan Omar raises money to 294 00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:35.079 run for Congress. Lots of it. I'm sure it takes. 295 00:19:35.599 --> 00:19:38.400 Let's see running for Congress in Minneapolis. I bet you 296 00:19:38.480 --> 00:19:41.279 she has to raise two three million dollars in election cycle. 297 00:19:41.319 --> 00:19:44.759 That's going to be expensive media up there. What do 298 00:19:44.799 --> 00:19:48.039 you do with that two or three million dollars? Look 299 00:19:48.079 --> 00:19:52.319 at that, I know what I'll do. I'll hire a 300 00:19:52.400 --> 00:20:00.960 consulting firm to handle my campaign. Hires your relatives consulting firm. 301 00:20:00.960 --> 00:20:05.440 This is very common in politics. Hire your relatives consulting firm. 302 00:20:05.440 --> 00:20:07.680 Maybe it's a son, maybe it's a husband, maybe it's 303 00:20:07.680 --> 00:20:13.920 a mother. All that campaign money you raised ends up somehow, 304 00:20:14.039 --> 00:20:19.440 some way, growing exponentially, right back into your bank account. 305 00:20:19.759 --> 00:20:22.720 Why do you think we can't seem to pry these 306 00:20:22.799 --> 00:20:27.400 scumbags out of office. Either they're looting your money or 307 00:20:27.440 --> 00:20:33.559 they're looting the campaign treasury. They're just corrupt in evil 308 00:20:33.759 --> 00:20:36.279 and this is how so many in the government do it. 309 00:20:36.279 --> 00:20:39.480 It's how it works, it's why they stick there. It's 310 00:20:39.519 --> 00:20:43.960 the dug in. It's awful, absolutely awful. It's a system 311 00:20:44.000 --> 00:20:48.480 that has to change. It's bonkers that it hasn't changed. Well, 312 00:20:48.839 --> 00:20:53.119 it is what it is, Jesse. When Trump was elected, 313 00:20:53.119 --> 00:20:55.759 the left said they'd be putting trainees and other comedies 314 00:20:55.799 --> 00:21:03.440 in concentration camps. Where are the concentration camps? I was promised. Well, look, 315 00:21:04.599 --> 00:21:09.279 as we've talked about many many times before, communists lie 316 00:21:09.519 --> 00:21:14.200 about everything at all times, all the time. That is 317 00:21:14.240 --> 00:21:17.920 what they're supposed to do. They're trying to lie. It's 318 00:21:17.920 --> 00:21:22.440 not like they tell accidental lies. They know they have 319 00:21:22.519 --> 00:21:24.839 to lie about everything because if they told the truth 320 00:21:24.880 --> 00:21:28.839 about anything, they would never be elected anywhere. They'd be 321 00:21:28.920 --> 00:21:33.480 run out of polite society, denaturalized, deported and put on 322 00:21:33.519 --> 00:21:37.240 a deserted island somewhere. If the communist was ever honest 323 00:21:37.640 --> 00:21:40.920 about how truly sick and evil his plans are, he 324 00:21:40.960 --> 00:21:44.319 would never hold power, even in blue areas. Ever, so 325 00:21:44.359 --> 00:21:49.319 they lie all the time. Oh, here's a good example, 326 00:21:51.200 --> 00:21:56.599 Jasmine Crockett. She's out there with another well pretty ghetto 327 00:21:56.759 --> 00:21:57.559 accent man. 328 00:21:57.640 --> 00:22:00.319 Because these people, they are crazy, because they are always 329 00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:01.680 talk about how Christian they is. 330 00:22:02.079 --> 00:22:03.640 Yeah, I don't know how many it am. 331 00:22:03.480 --> 00:22:04.480 On that side. 332 00:22:05.039 --> 00:22:07.599 I getting divorced because they getting caught up sleeping with 333 00:22:07.640 --> 00:22:11.680 their coworkers, staff as and turns all the things. Yet 334 00:22:11.759 --> 00:22:14.240 you ain't gotta believe me. Just go Google. You'll find 335 00:22:14.279 --> 00:22:16.839 some of it, I'm telling you. And the wives is 336 00:22:16.880 --> 00:22:19.079 being messy and petty they putting it. 337 00:22:18.960 --> 00:22:23.920 In and I don't know how how Christian day is. Wow, 338 00:22:25.000 --> 00:22:27.960 I wonder what I wonder what part of the whod 339 00:22:28.000 --> 00:22:33.240 she's from? Must be a rough part of town. Except 340 00:22:34.559 --> 00:22:38.440 this was Jasmine Crockett in earlier day. 341 00:22:38.480 --> 00:22:39.839 First of all, it's good to see you in the 342 00:22:39.880 --> 00:22:43.839 new year. You know, no one could have told me 343 00:22:44.400 --> 00:22:47.400 that when I went down to Austin now looks like 344 00:22:47.440 --> 00:22:49.839 a little bit over a year ago, that I would 345 00:22:49.880 --> 00:22:51.599 be running for Congress. 346 00:22:52.920 --> 00:23:00.680 What a well spoken, polite sounding young lady. What happened 347 00:23:01.200 --> 00:23:05.039 because that wasn't very long ago. Did she move to 348 00:23:05.079 --> 00:23:06.680 the bad part of town or something not? 349 00:23:06.799 --> 00:23:09.440 She talks about because these people they are crazy because 350 00:23:09.440 --> 00:23:12.079 they always talk about how Christian they is. You, I 351 00:23:12.119 --> 00:23:14.200 don't know how many am on that side. 352 00:23:15.279 --> 00:23:17.880 Did she get hit in the head or something that? 353 00:23:18.599 --> 00:23:25.319 What happened there? Well, she lies Jasmine Crockett. Her district 354 00:23:26.160 --> 00:23:29.599 is very ghetto. It's been drawn that way. She might 355 00:23:29.599 --> 00:23:32.599 be getting drawn out of it as testrict as Texas 356 00:23:32.640 --> 00:23:36.319 redraws its districts, by the way, but her district is 357 00:23:36.559 --> 00:23:42.440 extremely ghetto. That's how the people in her district want 358 00:23:42.480 --> 00:23:44.960 her to talk. At least that's what she believes. She 359 00:23:45.079 --> 00:23:48.039 believes that's how they talk. She believes that's how they 360 00:23:48.079 --> 00:23:52.240 want her to talk. And so, without missing a beat, 361 00:23:52.799 --> 00:23:57.400 you just become a fake person. Wouldn't you feel dirty, 362 00:23:58.960 --> 00:24:01.839 wouldn't you? And this is something you have inside of you. 363 00:24:01.920 --> 00:24:08.240 That the communist simply doesn't. Wouldn't that feel dirty? What 364 00:24:09.000 --> 00:24:11.200 if I, I mean, you hear I don't. I guess 365 00:24:11.240 --> 00:24:14.119 I don't have much of an accent because I've lived everywhere, 366 00:24:14.960 --> 00:24:18.160 Ohio and Montane. I've just lived everywhere. So I'm sure 367 00:24:18.200 --> 00:24:21.960 you can pick up something traces of something Midwest or something. 368 00:24:22.000 --> 00:24:25.039 But I don't have much of an accent of any kind. 369 00:24:25.160 --> 00:24:30.680 But what if I went to a deep South state, Alabama, 370 00:24:30.839 --> 00:24:34.279 one of my favorites. What if I went to Alabama 371 00:24:34.440 --> 00:24:36.759 and I ran for office and I started throwing on 372 00:24:36.880 --> 00:24:41.359 a Southern accent, I would feel so stupid, and I 373 00:24:41.400 --> 00:24:44.559 would feel like I was insulting the people who genuinely 374 00:24:45.039 --> 00:24:50.920 have an accent. I would feel dishonest and gross. But 375 00:24:52.440 --> 00:24:58.599 they don't. They lie about everything at all times. Christinom 376 00:25:00.119 --> 00:25:04.480 Christy Nome. Speaking of lies, she went on CBS talking 377 00:25:04.519 --> 00:25:08.759 about this kilmar Abrego Garcia scumbag. This is what she 378 00:25:08.960 --> 00:25:10.240 actually said, and the one. 379 00:25:10.119 --> 00:25:12.680 Thing that we will continue to do is to make 380 00:25:12.720 --> 00:25:15.319 sure that he doesn't walk free in the United States 381 00:25:15.319 --> 00:25:19.480 of America. This individual was a known human smuggler, a 382 00:25:19.920 --> 00:25:22.960 MS thirteen gang member, an individual who was a wife 383 00:25:23.000 --> 00:25:28.039 beater and someone who was so perverted that he solicited 384 00:25:28.279 --> 00:25:32.000 nude photos from minors, and even his fellow human traffickers 385 00:25:32.000 --> 00:25:34.680 told him to knock it off. He was so sick 386 00:25:34.720 --> 00:25:36.519 in what he was doing and how he was treating 387 00:25:36.559 --> 00:25:39.519 small children. So he needs to never be in the 388 00:25:39.599 --> 00:25:42.839 United States of America, and our administration is making sure 389 00:25:42.839 --> 00:25:45.240 we're doing all that we can to bring him to justice. 390 00:25:46.039 --> 00:25:49.440 That's what she actually said. Would you like to hear 391 00:25:49.480 --> 00:25:53.759 what CBS played? This is what you're liberally and Peggy 392 00:25:53.799 --> 00:25:56.160 who watches CBS, this is what she saw. 393 00:25:56.240 --> 00:25:58.240 And the one thing that we will continue to do 394 00:25:58.759 --> 00:26:00.720 is to make sure that he does doesn't walk free 395 00:26:01.039 --> 00:26:02.480 in the United States of America. 396 00:26:04.920 --> 00:26:13.440 That's not bias. That's lying. They lie about everything at 397 00:26:13.480 --> 00:26:19.319 all times. If their lips are moving, they're lying. Let's 398 00:26:19.319 --> 00:26:24.319 do some more emails.
