Speaker 1: Essie Kelly Show, Final hour of The Jesse Kelly Show
Speaker 1: on a wonderful, fantastic Thursday.
Speaker 2: And we have a huge hour for you because we're
Speaker 2: gonna go through all your emails and they are endlessly
Speaker 2: We're talking history of the Middle East region. That'd be
Speaker 2: a big thing. We're gonna talk Thomas Jefferson keere in
Speaker 2: a moment. We're gonna talk. You know what, Let's talk
Speaker 2: about the invasion of Europe. Our invasion quit this guy,
Speaker 2: says Jesse. With the invasion of Western Europe from foreigners,
Speaker 2: invited by these Western leaders and threats by these same
Speaker 2: leaders to recognize Palestine. Should the US invade and conquer
Speaker 2: Western Europe now before we evidently send our next generations
Speaker 2: to do it, that's a little heavy well, no, no
Speaker 2: for for Okay, First of all, let's let's have an
Speaker 2: honest discussion here. The United the State's military is incredible.
Speaker 2: It is our money. Our money has allowed us to
Speaker 2: build a military that is several times larger than any
Speaker 2: European country, more modern, larger, all those things. Conquest is
Speaker 2: one of those things that dudes love to talk about,
Speaker 2: we love to read about, We love to read about
Speaker 2: historical conquerors of all kinds, doesn't matter to pick your conqueror.
Speaker 2: We're fascinated by it, fascinated by the battles, the reasons,
Speaker 2: everything else. But conquest is also very very very difficult
Speaker 2: to pull off successfully in any lasting way. I'm not
Speaker 2: talking about a battle here, taking out a city here.
Speaker 2: Real actual conquests very very difficult, and it's more terrible
Speaker 2: than you can imagine. Whenever you're talking about conquest, you're
Speaker 2: talking about dead women and children. The problem for so
Speaker 2: many countries, ours included. It's not as bad of a
Speaker 2: problem now with Trump in there. But the problem for
Speaker 2: Western countries is not external. Europe's problem is not whatever
Speaker 2: is happening between Israel and Palestine in any given moment.
Speaker 2: Europe's problem is not Russia Ukraine. That's not the problem.
Speaker 2: The problem is Western countries are mostly led by people
Speaker 2: who don't love their country. They don't love the country
Speaker 2: they're leading. They look at the country. We've done this before,
Speaker 2: but remember there are three things almost every Western leader
Speaker 2: has in common. Remember this. Burn this into your mind
Speaker 2: and it'll explain so much of why you see what
Speaker 2: you see. One no love of country. We'll come back
Speaker 2: to that two, no connection to normal people, how real
Speaker 2: old people live. They grew up in America here too,
Speaker 2: as essentially royalty. It's all private schools and manicured college campuses.
Speaker 2: These are people who've never worked with their hands. That
Speaker 2: they don't understand what it's like to not be able
Speaker 2: to pay the bills one month and don't understand that.
Speaker 2: And let me, let me, let me see if I
Speaker 2: can put this last part a different way. I've always
Speaker 2: said they see themselves as kings and queens. Maybe I
Speaker 2: should just reform that and say they see themselves as rulers.
Speaker 2: They are ruling a country, not serving it, not protecting it.
Speaker 2: And that's I think I'm gonna switch to that. They
Speaker 2: see themselves as rulers the country. How leaders, good leaders
Speaker 2: see their country is they have a duty to that country.
Speaker 2: They have a responsibility to that country to serve it,
Speaker 2: to protect it, to protect its people. That's how a
Speaker 2: good leader looks at his country. An evil leader thinks
Speaker 2: his country is there to serve him and his interests
Speaker 2: over a long enough period of time. A lot of
Speaker 2: this comes from our education system, which is poisonous. A
Speaker 2: lot of this is spiritual. Over a long enough period
Speaker 2: of time. What we lost was leaders who believed they
Speaker 2: were there to serve and protect their country. This is
Speaker 2: a huge, huge reason why Donald Trump's popularity is hard
Speaker 2: to quantify. Why what is it? There are things about
Speaker 2: Donald Trump on their face that should make him unpopular?
Speaker 2: Why is Donald Trump? Why has his popularity been so
Speaker 2: impenetrable for people on the right, Whereas if another politician
Speaker 2: had done or said some of the things donald Trump said,
Speaker 2: it would sink them, or at least it would sink
Speaker 2: their popularity. But Trump can do it, and Trump can
Speaker 2: get away with it. Trump, Uh, what's something he did recently?
Speaker 2: Trump dropped an F bomb on camera. Now, look, I'm
Speaker 2: not here again. I'm not a nun. It's not that
Speaker 2: I was mortified or anything like that. But traditionally, given
Speaker 2: the rights more evangelical base, dropping an F bomb on camera,
Speaker 2: that would really get some serious pushback for any politician,
Speaker 2: any Republican for sure, who did something like that. You
Speaker 2: probably didn't even remember he said it. You probably don't
Speaker 2: even care. Yeah, yeah, he said it, Toy. Oh, yes,
Speaker 2: he said it twice. Chris. It wasn't a big deal,
Speaker 2: didn't make a blip. Why does he get away with
Speaker 2: so many things others didn't. Donald Trump loves the country
Speaker 2: and everyone can see it. He does, for any of
Speaker 2: his flaws, for any of the ways, or even serious
Speaker 2: policy matters that you may disagree with him on, or
Speaker 2: I may disagree with him on. It's a breath of
Speaker 2: fresh air to have somebody constantly praising America. Now that's
Speaker 2: actually sad when you think about it, because that should
Speaker 2: be the bare minimum for every party, right and that
Speaker 2: was forever in this country, whether Democrat or Republican. You
Speaker 2: never trashed America, no matter what. Go look, do yourself
Speaker 2: a favorite. It may be boring unless you're one of
Speaker 2: these nerds like me. I will do this, but spa
Speaker 2: spend five minutes. I'm not asking you to spend an
Speaker 2: hour because you'll get bored. Spend five minutes. Go to
Speaker 2: h It'll be on YouTube, I'm sure. Go to YouTube
Speaker 2: and look up a John F. Kennedy's speech. Maybe you
Speaker 2: don't like Kennedy, that's fine, I don't care. Maybe you
Speaker 2: love Kenny, Yeah, I don't care. None of that matters.
Speaker 2: John F. Kennedy was a Democrat. John F. Kennedy gave
Speaker 2: speech after speech after speech talking about the greatness of
Speaker 2: this country. That wasn't unique. That's how American presidents talked
Speaker 2: about America. But since this poisonous anti American, anti Western
Speaker 2: communism has worked its way through our political system and
Speaker 2: France's and England's and everything else. Yeah, that's a good point, Chris,
Speaker 2: look up the Space race speech. Since this poisonous anti
Speaker 2: americanism has worked its way through the Democrat Party, it's
Speaker 2: now built in that when a Democrat gets elected, they'll
Speaker 2: crap on this place every chance they get, foreign, domestic,
Speaker 2: wherever they're giving a speech. You can't even get one
Speaker 2: sentence out of a Democrat without him at least having
Speaker 2: to put a qualifier in there. Even if they say
Speaker 2: something like America's been great, even though we haven't always
Speaker 2: been perfect and we've I made a lot of mistakes,
Speaker 2: they can't get one sentence out without having to let
Speaker 2: their animals know, hey, I hate America like you do.
Speaker 2: It does suck. Love of country is a critical thing
Speaker 2: for leaders of a country, and that is what is
Speaker 2: killing the West, and that is what is killing Europe
Speaker 2: right now. It is killing it. The people who lead
Speaker 2: you know, Starmer, all these people, the people who lead
Speaker 2: the UK, that all anyone really in the EU most
Speaker 2: of these countries, it all comes down to love of country.
Speaker 2: It's not just that they see themselves as kings and queens.
Speaker 2: It comes down to love of country and they believe
Speaker 2: the country is there to serve them. You know. Obviously
Speaker 2: Germany has some uh rocky parts in its history. Huh,
Speaker 2: chrits that. So there's some ugly German history out there.
Speaker 2: I get that. But that's a cool country. I've been there. Beautiful.
Speaker 2: You take a little sail up a German river where
Speaker 2: there are castles and mountains on the side of it.
Speaker 2: It's sweet, a really cool. Yeah, food's pretty good, Yes,
Speaker 2: it is, Chris Brigod sweet country, cool traditions, some of
Speaker 2: them cool traditions. Merkel got elected in Germany and promptly
Speaker 2: brought in as much of the Islamic world as she
Speaker 2: possibly can, And now there are rapes, murders and acts
Speaker 2: of terror all over Germany. You think that woman, that hag.
Speaker 2: You think she ever laid down her head at night
Speaker 2: and stressed about what she was doing to Germany. Not
Speaker 2: one time. Maybe she's stressed about being held accountable for it.
Speaker 2: I doubt it. She never cared, doesn't care now drawyer
Speaker 2: of a great country. We can conquer Europe. All you
Speaker 2: want to answer your question, Nothing can save the West
Speaker 2: until the West gets leaders who love it. You don't
Speaker 2: even have to be geniuses, you know, they don't have
Speaker 2: to be brave, they don't have to just love the place.
Speaker 2: Loving the place is enough. Jesse Kelly Show on a
Speaker 2: wonderful Thursday.
Speaker 1: Member, you can email the show Jesse at Jesse kellyshow
Speaker 1: dot com.
Speaker 2: I won't be in tomorrow. Don't yell at me. I'll
Speaker 2: be back on Monday. We'll do medal of honor Monday.
Speaker 2: We'll have a good time like we always do. Let's
Speaker 2: get back to all these emails. Emails, Dear pink Flower,
Speaker 2: I'm a huge history nerd. Thomas Jefferson thought the Federalist
Speaker 2: Party stance was not enough for small government. I wonder
Speaker 2: what he would think about his Republican Party today. Just
Speaker 2: a question from a dumb electrician in Virginia making more
Speaker 2: money than most college grads. His name is Justin. I
Speaker 2: keep telling you boys about the trades. Anyway. Look, I
Speaker 2: think the founding fathers would be equally mortified and not
Speaker 2: surprised at what has happened to the country. In the
Speaker 2: size of our government today. And what I mean by
Speaker 2: that is, look, I'm gonna I'm gonna play something for you.
Speaker 2: And this is Scott percent who I like very sharp,
Speaker 2: been an excellent diplomat. This is Scott Piscent talking about
Speaker 2: the thousand dollars Trump accounts.
Speaker 3: The one thousand dollars baby bonds at every American citizen,
Speaker 3: every newborn is going to get. The Democrats hate this
Speaker 3: program because it brings capitalism and markets to every American,
Speaker 3: not just their constituents at the upper end. And you know,
Speaker 3: over time, the compounding is going to be an incredible
Speaker 3: supplement to solid security, not a replacement.
Speaker 2: It is a There's not a single founding father who
Speaker 2: wouldn't have pulled off his wig and screamed at the
Speaker 2: sky if you told him there would be a Republican
Speaker 2: one day talking about handing one thousand dollars of the
Speaker 2: public treasury's money out to kids who were born. We
Speaker 2: don't think about it now because we're so used to
Speaker 2: the well, they give out this, so we should give
Speaker 2: out that, and they gave this, so we should give that.
Speaker 2: But the founding fathers would be mortified that that is
Speaker 2: the position of anyone in the United States of America.
Speaker 2: Let me, let me dip my fingers into public treasury
Speaker 2: and hand out some jed or cheese to the American people. Mortified,
Speaker 2: but they wouldn't be surprised. Remember what Benjamin Franklin so
Speaker 2: famously said when a woman asked him, what kind of
Speaker 2: government have you given us? After they got done for
Speaker 2: him in the thing a republic, ma'am, if you can
Speaker 2: keep it. The founding fathers knew, and they were not perfect.
Speaker 2: You know, we honor them, and we should for what
Speaker 2: they gave us, for the life, they gave us, their work,
Speaker 2: their bravery, that's what gave us the kind of country
Speaker 2: we have now. But they weren't perfect, and they knew
Speaker 2: men were imperfect, and they knew. They wrote about it.
Speaker 2: They knew over time freedom's erode, government grows and freedom's erode.
Speaker 2: They knew that would be the case, and they warned repeatedly,
Speaker 2: repeatedly that if we lost our moral way, then we
Speaker 2: would not remain free. Now, we don't like discussing that
Speaker 2: because it sounds like you're moralizing or judging people, or
Speaker 2: preaching to people or something like that. But the truth is,
Speaker 2: they all talked about this. Even Jefferson, who wasn't exactly
Speaker 2: a Bible believer. Jefferson, I mean, I'm pretty sure he
Speaker 2: was an atheist. Do you think so, Chris? From his writings,
Speaker 2: I know he references God a lot, but I kind
Speaker 2: of feel like that was him tossing a bone to
Speaker 2: the other founders. But even Jefferson talked about the necessity
Speaker 2: of a free people being a moral people, because if
Speaker 2: they weren't, then freedoms would be abused and the people
Speaker 2: would eventually need to be coralled by an authority here
Speaker 2: on earth. They talked about it the j Adams That
Speaker 2: was basically John Adams quote that this government is wholly
Speaker 2: inadequate for anything other than a moral people. And we
Speaker 2: don't like talking about that because it makes us uncomfortable
Speaker 2: because who is moral? I'm certainly not. I'm not. But
Speaker 2: as a whole, as a people, we want to discuss capitalism,
Speaker 2: We want to talk about taxes and spending and illegals
Speaker 2: and things like that. But here's something for you. How
Speaker 2: many of America's problems, all of them, including illegal immigration
Speaker 2: or whatever, how many of them would be solved if
Speaker 2: we had half the number of broken homes we have now.
Speaker 2: But that's such a large problem, and one that's out
Speaker 2: of your hands, isn't it. It's out of my hands.
Speaker 2: I can't fix it. I can't fix myself, let alone
Speaker 2: fix other people. I'm not looking down my nose at anybody.
Speaker 2: But the truth is, our founders would be mortified at
Speaker 2: what has happened to our country, but they would not
Speaker 2: be surprised. They knew that this is how it goes,
Speaker 2: especially once you get rich as a country. And there's
Speaker 2: nothing wrong with getting rich. It's better than being poor
Speaker 2: as a country. I mean, it's better than starving, scraping
Speaker 2: for food, famine all the time. I like that our
Speaker 2: poor people still eat in this country. That's a good thing.
Speaker 2: That's awesome. I like that our poorest people have a
Speaker 2: refrigerator in their house. I like that running water. That's good.
Speaker 2: But wealth like that as a country also, it breeds complacency.
Speaker 2: At some point in time, you stop being hungry, you
Speaker 2: stop striving. You got the air conditioning, you got running water,
Speaker 2: you got some craft Mac. Time to have some Mac
Speaker 2: Andweenies for dinner. Life's good. You got a full belly.
Speaker 2: Hard to keep striving. Let's move on. Someone wants to
Speaker 2: talk about the Holy Land the history of it. Oh,
Speaker 2: that'll be ugly, so you know we'll do that. I'm
Speaker 2: sure that'll bring in some more emails.
Speaker 1: It is the Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Thursday. Remember,
Speaker 1: if you missed any part of the show, any of
Speaker 1: it all week or ever, you can go download it free,
Speaker 1: go subscribe so you never miss a minute. I heart
Speaker 1: Spotify iTunes, and I'm obviously totally being selfish. I just
Speaker 1: want you to download it morecus it makes me look better.
Speaker 1: iHeart Spotify iTunes.
Speaker 2: Jesse. I love your show me too. I especially love
Speaker 2: how you explain history so well. It would be wonderful
Speaker 2: if you could explain why both the Jews and the
Speaker 2: Palestinians lay claim to the Holy Land. I specifically need
Speaker 2: to know how long the Palestinians have been there. I
Speaker 2: have a friend who insists that land originally belonged to
Speaker 2: Palestine and the Jews have no claim to the land.
Speaker 2: She says, sorry, Chris, would you take the time to
Speaker 2: do a quick overview of the history and that part
Speaker 2: of the world, says I can, says I can read.
Speaker 2: Her name or name is Nanette? Okay, so maybe do
Speaker 2: this as briefly as I possibly can. Let's rewind all
Speaker 2: the way, because she did go on to say if
Speaker 2: you could go all the way back to Abraham and say, look,
Speaker 2: I can't. That's too much for even a three hour show.
Speaker 2: But I'll do this the best I can. All right.
Speaker 2: God calls Abraham out and he says, hey, there's something
Speaker 2: else for you. Go forth, let's fast forward. We're doing
Speaker 2: a lot of fast forwarding here, believe me, a lot
Speaker 2: of fast forwarding. The Israelites find themselves in captivity in
Speaker 2: under the Egyptian Empire, which was one of the longest
Speaker 2: lasting big boy empires in history. For some reason, they
Speaker 2: don't get any love. I don't I actually don't know
Speaker 2: why they don't get any love. Chris says, are too small.
Speaker 2: I don't know. Maybe it's because of where they are now. Anyway,
Speaker 2: long lasting empire. The Israelites find themselves in captivity underneath
Speaker 2: the Egyptians. Obviously, people know the story of Moses. God
Speaker 2: calls Moses, go get my people out of there. Moses
Speaker 2: goes to Pharaoh. Pharaoh doesn't listen. God does a bunch
Speaker 2: of horrible crap the egypt and finally Pharaoh's it's like,
Speaker 2: please leave Moses. Israelites take off across the Red Sea,
Speaker 2: so on and so forth. Now the Israelites, they're heading
Speaker 2: towards the Promised Land. Why is it called the Promised
Speaker 2: Land because God promised it to them. They're heading to
Speaker 2: the Promised Land. But remember there are no unconquered lands
Speaker 2: except for crappy lands. If you would like to take
Speaker 2: a piece of ground and you don't want to take
Speaker 2: it from somebody, you're going to have to go to
Speaker 2: the worst places on earth that nobody wants. The Israelites
Speaker 2: didn't show up to this extremely fertile, wonderful piece of
Speaker 2: ground and find empty space. Hey, vacancy, come on in.
Speaker 2: They saw others, and they proceeded to conquer the others.
Speaker 2: With a little bit of help from the Lord, creator
Speaker 2: of the universe, which doesn't hurt when he's on your side,
Speaker 2: they take it. Okay, Israel established, which is an empire.
Speaker 2: I don't know if I should call it an empire.
Speaker 2: A kingdom is what it turned out to be, a
Speaker 2: kingdom very similar to the lines you see today, not exactly,
Speaker 2: that is not exact, but it's the same area. They
Speaker 2: established this kingdom. Eventually they fall out of favor with God.
Speaker 2: Kingdom is broken up into Judah versus the rest of Israel. Okay,
Speaker 2: I'm really trying to fast forward through a lot of
Speaker 2: this stuff. They're eventually pillaged by the Assyrians the Babylonians.
Speaker 2: They lose God's protection and they start getting attacked and
Speaker 2: broken up and attacked and broken up. But do keep
Speaker 2: something in mind. During all this, the slavery, the conquest,
Speaker 2: the Assyrians, the Babylonians, the everything else, there are still
Speaker 2: people there, and today they would be Jewish people today
Speaker 2: who believe, well, actually I would probably want a lot
Speaker 2: of Christians in with that too, who believe that this
Speaker 2: is the land God promised the Israelites. It's still the
Speaker 2: promise land. They are connected to it now because they
Speaker 2: have member. It's a monotheistic religion Judaism. There is only
Speaker 2: one God. It is Jahweh because it's a monotheistic religion.
Speaker 2: Rome eventually comes knocking. This is a long long time afterwards.
Speaker 2: It was actually Pompy Magnus. We've brought up several times.
Speaker 2: Rome eventually comes knocking. Hey, I like this place. I
Speaker 2: think we'll take it. Rome did. But Rome had a
Speaker 2: very Rome had an interesting way of conquest, and it
Speaker 2: was not always the same. Sometimes they'll come in and
Speaker 2: just genocide the whole freaking place. That is not how
Speaker 2: they really preferred to do business. No, no, no, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: you guys stay, that's fine. It's all good. You stay.
Speaker 2: We're gonna need you to pay some taxes and we're
Speaker 2: gonna need you. You know, you're gonna bow before the throne.
Speaker 2: But you could say, hey, go to synagogue. Sounds good.
Speaker 2: The Jews were famously a nightmare for the Romans under
Speaker 2: this system. A lot of this comes back to the
Speaker 2: monotheistic religion. It comes back to their connection to the land.
Speaker 2: They started having rebellions, and when I say rebellions, I
Speaker 2: don't mean a hundred people got up at the after
Speaker 2: the Sabbath and started making some noise. They would raise armies,
Speaker 2: twenty thirty thousand man armies, and they fought, and they
Speaker 2: actually beat the Romans on occasion, but it was still
Speaker 2: the Roman Empire and they just did not have the manpower.
Speaker 2: They didn't have, but they were not going to win. Finally,
Speaker 2: the Romans have the Jews have another one, the Israelites
Speaker 2: have another one, and the Romans have freaking had enough
Speaker 2: of it. They cast them to the winds. Pause for
Speaker 2: a second. I know you're probably asking you about Palestine,
Speaker 2: which remember that word is in the Bible. It's in
Speaker 2: the Old Testament. Go u zephy and I it's in
Speaker 2: the Bible. Okay, they were a people around there too,
Speaker 2: They were eight people there too. The Romans take the
Speaker 2: Jews and they say it, you have to leave all
Speaker 2: of you. That's known as the diaspora, the Jewish diaspora.
Speaker 2: They scatter them to how did so many Jews end
Speaker 2: up in Russia all over Europe? Places like that? The
Speaker 2: Romans said, get out. They ended up going and settling
Speaker 2: in other places. Now, once they were gone, the Roman
Speaker 2: Empire comms goes on and so forth. The Palestinian people
Speaker 2: are still around, They're still there. Eventually, this is years
Speaker 2: and years and years later, we're talking to you the
Speaker 2: nineteen hundreds. By this point in time, the Jews have
Speaker 2: not lost their connection, the sputual connection to the land.
Speaker 2: They decide they want to come back. They begin trying
Speaker 2: to reconquer this area from the Palestinians. Later on, now
Speaker 2: they're reconquering it in different ways, and a lot of
Speaker 2: ways they're just moving in. They're buying up real estates,
Speaker 2: one of the best ways to move in. They are
Speaker 2: shipping in arms. There are clashes. They're also lobbying political leaders,
Speaker 2: including in America, all over the world. Back up this effort,
Speaker 2: Back up this effort. Back up our effort. We're trying
Speaker 2: to we deserve a home, we deserve our holy land. Back.
Speaker 2: They are reconquering the area post w W two. I mean, really,
Speaker 2: this was all going on during World War One and
Speaker 2: things like that, but post WWW two, this gets way
Speaker 2: more official. Okay, that's yours. Now. The problem is everybody
Speaker 2: has a claim to it because everyone's been there. Remember
Speaker 2: there were people there before the Israelites got there. Could
Speaker 2: they start a conquering all of them? The right of
Speaker 2: conquest is a thing, whether you like it or not.
Speaker 2: The conflict you see now, By the way, your friend
Speaker 2: who said the Palestinians have a right to it, You
Speaker 2: who say the israel Lites have a right to it,
Speaker 2: You know who has a right to it, the one
Speaker 2: who took it, because it's been taken before. And that's
Speaker 2: the way every plot of land is. The problem is
Speaker 2: lights run into now is the problem many countries have
Speaker 2: run into are self included. They didn't take all of it.
Speaker 2: You tried. Now, there were reasons. Remember the Western nations
Speaker 2: were hesitant. Hey, you can't just kick out all the Palestinians,
Speaker 2: so they were getting outside pressure. There's a lot of
Speaker 2: reasons to it. What have we talked about before? Half
Speaker 2: conquest doesn't work, We're gonna take Israel and uh, you
Speaker 2: guys can just have this little place called Palestine. Well,
Speaker 2: how's that worked out? It doesn't Now what was it
Speaker 2: I think it was today. I think it was a
Speaker 2: couple hours ago. Hamas just said Nope, no more cease fire.
Speaker 2: It's on again without end. Either take it or don't,
Speaker 2: because this stuff continues until you take it. From The
Speaker 2: Jesse Kelly's Show, final segment of The Jesse Kelly Show
Speaker 2: on a wonderful, fantastic Thursday. Remember I will be back
Speaker 2: on Monday. On Monday, I'll be back. Gonna have to
Speaker 2: do without me until then. So we don't have very
Speaker 2: much time here. Let's get through as many asked Doctor
Speaker 2: Jesse questions as we possibly can. Hey, Jesse, why doesn't
Speaker 2: some rich person purchase for the American people a conservative
Speaker 2: network channel so they can know the truth about things?
Speaker 2: That's what will save the country. It's hysterically funny because
Speaker 2: nobody would vote for Democrats if they knew. Why doesn't
Speaker 2: somebody buy NBC or MSNBC or CBS as they can
Speaker 2: have free access to the truth. We love listening to
Speaker 2: you on the radio, but with your talent, you should
Speaker 2: be on TV. I'm on TV. I'm on the First TV.
Speaker 2: I'm on the I have a television show on the
Speaker 2: First TV every single night at nine o'clock Eastern time.
Speaker 2: Right after this show's done, I do the First TV.
Speaker 2: But set it out aside. We have now, we have
Speaker 2: opportunities that we never had before. We just did I
Speaker 2: was actually watching I think it was on NET. I
Speaker 2: was watching a Vietnam documentary they have called Turning Point.
Speaker 2: I am not recommending it. I actually stopped after about
Speaker 2: the third or fourth episode. Oh, Chris. It had Dan
Speaker 2: Rather and all kinds of dirty commie gobly cook in there.
Speaker 2: There was some interesting political angles to it and things
Speaker 2: like that, but I just didn't care for it. I've
Speaker 2: watched a lot of documentaries. It was not one for me,
Speaker 2: so I dropped it anyway. Anyway, But one of the
Speaker 2: interesting things they were talking about Walter Cronkite, who was
Speaker 2: before my time. If you're older, you remember him. I
Speaker 2: do not. I don't want to act like I used
Speaker 2: to watch Walter Kronkite. I didn't obviously know who he is.
Speaker 2: Famous newsman back then. Well, Walter Cronkite went over to Vietnam.
Speaker 2: This was a big deal. They made a big deal
Speaker 2: of it during the show. He went over to Vietnam,
Speaker 2: and then he came home and instead of just presenting
Speaker 2: the news, he actually editorialized where is previously? They at
Speaker 2: least they made it look like he hadn't been doing that.
Speaker 2: The network didn't want him to Nope, just give the facts.
Speaker 2: This is what's happening. That's happening. Kay. He comes back
Speaker 2: and craps on the war, comes back, says we're not winning.
Speaker 2: I forget exactly how he put it. He essentially goes
Speaker 2: and says, I'm not sure we can win now. Picture
Speaker 2: this the president when he said that was LBJ Lynda B. Johnson.
Speaker 2: LBJ was rocked by the fact that Walter Cronkite got
Speaker 2: up on the news and trashed it. In fact, LBJ
Speaker 2: said he just cost us Middle America. One anchor. Think
Speaker 2: about the power of that one news anchor, not an
Speaker 2: elected politician. One news anchor gets up craps on the war,
Speaker 2: and it seriously swayed America's public opinion of the war.
Speaker 2: Why there weren't options if you wanted to know what
Speaker 2: was going on in the world. There's no podcasts. Yes,
Speaker 2: there were radio shows, of course, but you have radio
Speaker 2: and there weren't that many of those. There weren't many
Speaker 2: radio shows, certainly not many national ones. There weren't radio shows,
Speaker 2: There were no podcasts. There's no twenty five channels, one
Speaker 2: hundred channels, three hundred channels on the dial, you got
Speaker 2: two three. If you want to know what's going on
Speaker 2: in the world, and you didn't pick up the newspaper
Speaker 2: that day, you're watching Walter Kankite. Everybody in the country
Speaker 2: funneled into one human being's mind. One human beings what
Speaker 2: he sees, what he hears. He possessed so much power
Speaker 2: he torpedoed the war. Now I realized that there was
Speaker 2: a lot more than Walter Kronkite, but that was a huge,
Speaker 2: huge moment for the country. Well, tell me the news
Speaker 2: anchor who can do that today on any side, by
Speaker 2: the way, any side, pick your side, left, right, middle, wherever,
Speaker 2: there's nobody, not a single person, who's the most powerful.
Speaker 2: Who's the most powerful news person on any side out
Speaker 2: there right now? Maybe Tucker Carlson probably, I would guess,
Speaker 2: a hugely powerful voice. Tucker Carlson can't steal Middle America
Speaker 2: if he came out tonight, and he wouldn't. But if
Speaker 2: he came out tonight and just savage Trump, Trump's a
Speaker 2: big stupid idiot. Everyone should hate Trump. Trump sucks Trump.
Speaker 2: This Trump that I don't think it would even hurt
Speaker 2: his approval ratings because people now have options. They can
Speaker 2: go learn who they want to learn from, the can
Speaker 2: listen to what they want to listen to. They can
Speaker 2: watch what they want to watch. We don't need somebody
Speaker 2: to purchase ABC, NBCCBS. They're rotting, they're dying on the vine,
Speaker 2: and the only people still supporting them they're dying too.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna read something to you. This is from Pew Research.
Speaker 2: This is the demographics right now. Eighteen to twenty nine
Speaker 2: year old men, they're Republican by forty four points. Eighteen
Speaker 2: to twenty nine year old women, all thought of as
Speaker 2: being lefties, they're Republican by fourteen points, thirty to forty
Speaker 2: nine year old men Republican by fifteen, thirty to forty
Speaker 2: nine year old women Democrat by three, right back to
Speaker 2: being read fifty to sixty four year old men Republican
Speaker 2: by three, fifty to sixty four year old women Republican
Speaker 2: by one.
Speaker 1: But then we get to sixty five plus sixty five
Speaker 1: plus US men Democrats by six, sixty five plus women
Speaker 1: Democrats by two.
Speaker 2: Obviously it's not all encompassing. Please don't email me. I
Speaker 2: not like that the time I'm saying. The only people
Speaker 2: still consuming ABC, NBC, CBS for their nightly news are
Speaker 2: sixty five plus years old. Surprise, surprise, Those are the
Speaker 2: dirtiest most committed comedies in the United States of America.
Speaker 2: Why why is there such a disparity between sixty five
Speaker 2: plus and virtually every other demographic. The other demographic has
Speaker 2: already changed the channel. We are winning, you know that, right.
Speaker 2: It's going to take time and it's gonna take effort.
Speaker 2: We didn't get it overnight, We won't get it back overnight.
Speaker 2: We are winning this thing in part, in large part,
Speaker 2: because people have options and they're taking advantage of those options. Now,
Speaker 2: I want you to do something for me before we
Speaker 2: check out for the weekend. I want you to save
Speaker 2: a life going into the weekend, a baby's life. I
Speaker 2: want you to go give Preborn twenty eight bucks right now.
Speaker 2: I think you'll find that you feel better after you're
Speaker 2: done Preborn. When we're enjoying the weekend, they're going to
Speaker 2: be out there giving free ultrasounds to women who have
Speaker 2: decided to have an abortion. That baby doesn't stand a
Speaker 2: chance unless Preborn can introduce the mother to the baby
Speaker 2: through ultrasound. When she hears the heartbeat, it doesn't matter
Speaker 2: what the culture has told her. At Things Alive, it's
Speaker 2: not a clump of cells anymore. It's not an inconvenience.
Speaker 2: It's her baby. Help Preborn save that life. Preborn dot
Speaker 2: com comm slash jesse is where you give preborn dot
Speaker 2: com slash jesse sponsored by Preborn. Now you put your
Speaker 2: phone down after you're giving done, given to preborn and
Speaker 2: go enjoy your weekend. I'll see you Monday. That's all.
