WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.880 --> 00:00:05.280 Is The Jesse Kelly Show. Final hour of The Jesse 2 00:00:05.480 --> 00:00:09.119 Kelly Show on a wonderful Wednesday. I'm so excited for 3 00:00:09.160 --> 00:00:11.519 this hour because we're going to talk about everything from 4 00:00:11.720 --> 00:00:16.000 how Oprah's stupid and Venezuelan people and that idiot lost 5 00:00:16.039 --> 00:00:19.320 his career at Ford and Gavin Newsom's in trouble. I 6 00:00:19.399 --> 00:00:21.640 just can't get the smile off my face. And then 7 00:00:21.679 --> 00:00:24.120 we have to go eat vibes at the restaurant with 8 00:00:24.199 --> 00:00:28.239 Gory and Chris and everything else. But I'm gonna start 9 00:00:28.320 --> 00:00:29.960 here because I tease it, So let's go ahead and 10 00:00:30.039 --> 00:00:32.159 start here. Hey, Jesse, I'm kind of ticked off of 11 00:00:32.240 --> 00:00:36.000 the Venezuelan people. The people in Iran are risking their 12 00:00:36.000 --> 00:00:41.079 lives protesting their evil dictatorship with only implicit support from 13 00:00:41.119 --> 00:00:46.679 the US. Where is the uprising in Venezuela even with 14 00:00:46.759 --> 00:00:48.799 the explicit support from the US? 15 00:00:49.399 --> 00:00:51.600 All I hear are crickets? All right? 16 00:00:53.000 --> 00:00:57.679 That's I was about to say, that's fair. I understand 17 00:00:57.719 --> 00:01:01.560 what you're saying, and I've thought things like that. I've 18 00:01:01.600 --> 00:01:04.319 had those thoughts go through my head. But I wanted 19 00:01:04.359 --> 00:01:06.519 to explain to them because I think it's applicable to us. 20 00:01:06.560 --> 00:01:09.319 Here in the United States of America. It certainly was 21 00:01:09.480 --> 00:01:13.480 under the Biden regime. This is going to apply to 22 00:01:13.519 --> 00:01:21.920 all peoples. Different peoples get to different places at different times. 23 00:01:23.079 --> 00:01:28.159 For instance, I'll use this as an example, COVID When 24 00:01:29.280 --> 00:01:35.359 when did you know that stopping an economy was a 25 00:01:35.439 --> 00:01:39.159 dumb idea? If you're being honest, you don't have to 26 00:01:39.200 --> 00:01:42.959 tell me. When did you know? Did you know right 27 00:01:43.000 --> 00:01:48.359 away the second they suggested it? Did you say, uh no, 28 00:01:49.640 --> 00:01:54.359 you can't do that? Not many did? Okay, So if 29 00:01:54.359 --> 00:01:59.239 that wasn't you, were you two weeks out, a week out, 30 00:02:00.120 --> 00:02:04.319 month out, Maybe it took you a year. Does that 31 00:02:04.400 --> 00:02:05.359 make you dumb? 32 00:02:06.480 --> 00:02:08.159 Bad? No? 33 00:02:09.479 --> 00:02:16.439 Different people arrive at the appropriate conclusion in their own time, 34 00:02:17.479 --> 00:02:19.800 in their own time. 35 00:02:20.280 --> 00:02:24.400 And they've gone through different things. 36 00:02:24.919 --> 00:02:28.080 If we have to make a comparison, and I really 37 00:02:28.080 --> 00:02:30.639 there are two totally different sets of people with different 38 00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:37.840 sets of culture. In Iran, they've been suffering under fifty 39 00:02:37.919 --> 00:02:40.840 years of abuse. Remember the show went down in nineteen 40 00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:43.800 seventy nine, so that's almost fifty years, forty five years 41 00:02:43.840 --> 00:02:49.560 of abuse, forty six years of abuse. In Venezuela, the 42 00:02:49.680 --> 00:02:57.919 Venezuelan people chose Hugo Chavez yes, Maduro took over for Javez, 43 00:02:58.280 --> 00:03:01.719 and then Maduro stole election. Even a Biden administration admitted 44 00:03:01.759 --> 00:03:04.439 he stole the last election. So let's not blame them 45 00:03:04.479 --> 00:03:12.400 for Maduro. But the Venezuelan people chose Hugo Chavez. Yes, 46 00:03:12.479 --> 00:03:15.479 they've suffered all kinds of abuse, and they're starving, and 47 00:03:15.520 --> 00:03:20.120 they've watched their super wealthy country descend into a communist stump, 48 00:03:20.360 --> 00:03:25.800 like all communist countries do. But it's still fresher for 49 00:03:25.879 --> 00:03:30.159 them than it is for Iran. I will also say this, 50 00:03:32.400 --> 00:03:36.759 don't ever, don't never hesitate to put yourself in someone 51 00:03:36.759 --> 00:03:39.800 else's shoes. I know that's an old cliche way to 52 00:03:39.840 --> 00:03:43.280 say things, but let me ask you something. Have you 53 00:03:43.360 --> 00:03:49.159 ever put something on social media criticizing democrats in the government. 54 00:03:51.360 --> 00:03:56.240 I sit here almost every single day and I blast 55 00:03:56.560 --> 00:04:01.479 the FBI both barrels. This is a federal law enforcement 56 00:04:01.520 --> 00:04:04.360 agency that has the power to destroy my life and 57 00:04:04.439 --> 00:04:07.520 your life. They'll cook up a crime, frame you for 58 00:04:07.599 --> 00:04:10.919 a crime, smear your reputation even if you get off 59 00:04:10.960 --> 00:04:13.719 scott free without going to prison. Your flat broke busted, 60 00:04:13.759 --> 00:04:17.800 and everyone hates your guns. But you know what's not 61 00:04:17.879 --> 00:04:21.519 going to happen to me, They're not going to kick 62 00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:24.160 in the door of my house tonight at two am 63 00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:28.639 and drag me out and fire a bullet in the 64 00:04:28.680 --> 00:04:31.600 back of my head and throw me in a ditch. 65 00:04:32.279 --> 00:04:34.839 And that's after torturing me for a few hours to 66 00:04:34.879 --> 00:04:41.079 find out how many friends I have I've collaborated with. Yes, 67 00:04:41.240 --> 00:04:43.680 we are corrupt in this country, there's no question about it. 68 00:04:44.160 --> 00:04:49.560 But that's how other people in other countries live. I 69 00:04:49.600 --> 00:04:53.920 would invite you to go look up the torture Chamber 70 00:04:54.079 --> 00:04:59.199 prison that is in downtown Caracas. They didn't even hide 71 00:04:59.199 --> 00:05:02.279 it hiding out in the woods. 72 00:05:02.639 --> 00:05:04.000 You know, they didn't stash it. 73 00:05:04.000 --> 00:05:09.040 It's not some concrete jungle thing that's buried that nobody 74 00:05:09.120 --> 00:05:12.120 knows about. Everyone knows about it. You know what it 75 00:05:12.160 --> 00:05:16.240 actually reminds me of. Have you ever read the book Rampage? 76 00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:19.399 If you ever read the book Rampage, I would recommend it. 77 00:05:19.399 --> 00:05:21.800 It's one of those book recommendations. All right, that's twice 78 00:05:21.839 --> 00:05:23.279 I said it. I have to do it one more time. 79 00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:27.879 Chris Sonan emails me and asks the book's name is Rampage. 80 00:05:28.879 --> 00:05:29.800 Rampage. 81 00:05:30.600 --> 00:05:37.439 Rampage is a fantastic history book about the Philippines. And 82 00:05:37.560 --> 00:05:40.560 not just about the fall of the Philippines. It's more 83 00:05:40.600 --> 00:05:44.920 about the Japanese occupation of the Philippines during World War 84 00:05:44.959 --> 00:05:49.519 Two and our efforts and ultimately successful efforts to take 85 00:05:49.639 --> 00:05:52.800 back the Philippines in World War Two. There's all kinds 86 00:05:52.800 --> 00:05:55.959 of stuff to it, fascinating stuff, wonderful stuff. I'd recommend it. 87 00:05:56.360 --> 00:06:00.160 But one of the things about it was this, we're 88 00:06:00.160 --> 00:06:06.439 in the Japanese occupation Manila. Manila had a prison in 89 00:06:06.480 --> 00:06:11.920 it that was a torture chamber prison where you would 90 00:06:12.000 --> 00:06:15.480 go and they burned people. 91 00:06:15.279 --> 00:06:16.480 Alive in there all the time. 92 00:06:17.879 --> 00:06:21.240 I'll skip over what they did to the women in there. 93 00:06:21.360 --> 00:06:25.120 You can use your imagination. It's worse than you can imagine. 94 00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:30.600 And they didn't hide that fact. They didn't even want 95 00:06:30.639 --> 00:06:35.040 to hide that fact. They wanted the Filipino people to know, 96 00:06:36.040 --> 00:06:38.560 if you step out a line, or if we even 97 00:06:38.720 --> 00:06:44.399 suspect that you know someone who stepped out of line, 98 00:06:44.519 --> 00:06:47.800 you're going to die, and you're not going to enjoy it. 99 00:06:48.959 --> 00:06:52.920 You're going to die and it will not be fast. Now, 100 00:06:53.360 --> 00:06:56.439 I've never lived under a regime like that, and you've 101 00:06:56.480 --> 00:06:59.920 never lived under a regime like that. But think about 102 00:07:00.240 --> 00:07:03.959 the fear you would feel maybe, if not for yourself, 103 00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:06.720 maybe you are personally brave. There are people that are 104 00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:10.879 that way, all kinds of cops and firefighters and guys 105 00:07:10.920 --> 00:07:13.600 who fought in combat and things like that. People are 106 00:07:13.639 --> 00:07:17.160 personally brave and will risk their own lives. People who 107 00:07:17.160 --> 00:07:21.959 are willing to die for something sounds good. What about 108 00:07:21.959 --> 00:07:29.240 your daughter, your son, because the Japanese they would do that. 109 00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:33.800 They'd take your daughter right in front of you, and 110 00:07:33.839 --> 00:07:36.360 you don't want to know where she ends up. They 111 00:07:36.439 --> 00:07:38.959 take your son, they'd kill your son, chop his head 112 00:07:38.959 --> 00:07:43.680 off right in front of you. Many people are personally brave, 113 00:07:44.279 --> 00:07:48.000 but you start threatening those closest to them and they'll 114 00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:53.959 break very understandably. Well, that's how people under these oppressive, 115 00:07:54.120 --> 00:07:59.000 oppressive regimes live. I can blame, and I do blame, 116 00:07:59.040 --> 00:08:03.319 the Venezuelan people for being so stupid that they voted 117 00:08:03.360 --> 00:08:06.639 for Hugo Chavez back in the day, They voted for 118 00:08:06.680 --> 00:08:09.759 a socialist back in the day, and turned their wealthy 119 00:08:09.800 --> 00:08:13.560 country into a disaster. Yes, they have to own that, 120 00:08:13.600 --> 00:08:17.519 there's no question about that. It's hard for me to 121 00:08:17.560 --> 00:08:22.120 criticize the Iranian people, the Venezuelan people, people anywhere across 122 00:08:22.199 --> 00:08:27.199 the globe when I personally, I don't have to risk that. 123 00:08:27.839 --> 00:08:30.360 I can sit here for four years when Joe Biden 124 00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:33.679 was president President of the United States of America. That's 125 00:08:33.679 --> 00:08:37.480 a big deal. That's the most powerful office in the world. 126 00:08:37.919 --> 00:08:41.279 And yet three hours a day, when I wasn't making 127 00:08:41.279 --> 00:08:44.559 fun of Corey's menu choices, for three hours a day, 128 00:08:45.480 --> 00:08:50.480 I sat here and towards Joe Biden apart, and I lived, 129 00:08:51.159 --> 00:08:53.480 and nobody came and kidnapped my wife and took her 130 00:08:53.480 --> 00:08:57.960 to a torture chamber. Let's not judge how the other 131 00:08:58.000 --> 00:09:02.840 people live, right, Jesse a stupid and naive question. But 132 00:09:02.919 --> 00:09:06.240 I'm just a peon and a multi community college dropout. 133 00:09:07.159 --> 00:09:10.759 In the light of government fraud and unaccountability, how is 134 00:09:10.799 --> 00:09:14.919 there no initiative by anyone for a mandate that each 135 00:09:15.279 --> 00:09:18.639 state must go through Doge audit and review. 136 00:09:19.480 --> 00:09:22.759 All right, So there's a little of that. 137 00:09:22.840 --> 00:09:25.200 Last week we announced that I'm creating a brand new 138 00:09:25.240 --> 00:09:28.120 division at the Department of Justice, a legal strike force, 139 00:09:28.200 --> 00:09:32.440 led by a really tough, smart new Attorney General for fraud. 140 00:09:32.960 --> 00:09:34.639 He's a fantastic young guy. 141 00:09:35.519 --> 00:09:39.240 He's so impassioned to do this properly. We intend to 142 00:09:39.279 --> 00:09:42.679 imprison any frauds or politician or public official involved in 143 00:09:42.720 --> 00:09:47.279 these sick plots to loot and pillage our country. 144 00:09:47.960 --> 00:09:51.279 So we're getting some of that. But remember there is something. 145 00:09:52.240 --> 00:09:55.240 Sometimes we like it and sometimes we hate it. But 146 00:09:55.360 --> 00:09:58.080 let me tell you something, in the end, it's going 147 00:09:58.120 --> 00:09:58.960 to really serve us. 148 00:09:59.000 --> 00:09:59.279 Well. 149 00:10:00.320 --> 00:10:05.080 Are states They really are their own country in a 150 00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:07.919 lot of ways. In this country, Yes they are united. 151 00:10:08.000 --> 00:10:10.519 Yes we have a federal government and all those things, 152 00:10:10.559 --> 00:10:16.000 but that the states govern themselves. That drives you crazy. 153 00:10:16.039 --> 00:10:19.320 When we're in charge. You like it when they're in charge. 154 00:10:19.879 --> 00:10:23.200 In the end, it will be better for us. It 155 00:10:23.240 --> 00:10:27.519 is the Jesse Kelly Show reminding you that you can 156 00:10:27.639 --> 00:10:31.279 email the show Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com. Before 157 00:10:31.320 --> 00:10:33.240 I get to this moron at Ford who gave up 158 00:10:33.279 --> 00:10:37.159 his career, So I saw a video right before I 159 00:10:37.200 --> 00:10:39.720 came on the air, there was a plane, I think 160 00:10:39.759 --> 00:10:43.320 it was in Denver. Something caught fire on the plane, 161 00:10:43.360 --> 00:10:49.080 attire or something like that, and they deployed that slide, 162 00:10:49.440 --> 00:10:53.039 that huge slide that goes out the side of the plane. 163 00:10:53.200 --> 00:10:56.039 And you know you've seen people get on that slide. 164 00:10:56.679 --> 00:10:59.360 You jump to get on the slide. It's not even 165 00:10:59.440 --> 00:11:03.799 like you. You kind of pussyfoot it you jump to 166 00:11:03.799 --> 00:11:07.799 get on the slide. I want to go on one of 167 00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:13.320 those slides, and I would be willing to have a 168 00:11:13.360 --> 00:11:17.039 small fire. I don't want anybody hurt. What Chris, A 169 00:11:17.159 --> 00:11:20.559 small fire if it meant I got to go down 170 00:11:20.600 --> 00:11:21.360 one of those slides. 171 00:11:21.399 --> 00:11:23.159 What Chris. 172 00:11:24.879 --> 00:11:27.919 No, I'm not going to cause the fire, all right, 173 00:11:29.200 --> 00:11:33.360 not right away, but at some point in my life, 174 00:11:34.200 --> 00:11:36.080 I feel like I should be able to go down 175 00:11:36.120 --> 00:11:38.960 one of those slides. I feel like this should be 176 00:11:38.960 --> 00:11:43.840 an option for people. I don't want anyone hurt, maybe 177 00:11:43.879 --> 00:11:46.240 some small damage to the aircraft. 178 00:11:46.519 --> 00:11:47.480 Whatever it is. 179 00:11:48.799 --> 00:11:51.360 I want to go down the slide, and I don't 180 00:11:51.360 --> 00:11:55.279 think that's unreasonable. And it's not just the wee factor 181 00:11:55.360 --> 00:11:58.440 of getting to go down the slide. 182 00:11:58.759 --> 00:12:00.039 Can you imagine how much. 183 00:12:00.240 --> 00:12:04.360 It would be to tell every person you know until 184 00:12:04.399 --> 00:12:07.759 the end of time that you went down the slide. 185 00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:12.639 I would tell everybody. I would. I'd tell people who 186 00:12:12.679 --> 00:12:15.159 I'd already told the story to, and I would and 187 00:12:15.200 --> 00:12:17.200 I would know that I'd already told them the story, 188 00:12:17.320 --> 00:12:19.519 and I would say I'd even act like I was 189 00:12:19.559 --> 00:12:21.360 going to be played. Did I tell you about the 190 00:12:21.440 --> 00:12:24.399 time I went down the slide, and if they said yes, 191 00:12:24.559 --> 00:12:26.159 I've said no, I don't think I did. And I 192 00:12:26.360 --> 00:12:28.919 just tell you the story again. I want to go 193 00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:32.120 down one of those slides so bad it's killing me. 194 00:12:32.399 --> 00:12:35.279 I watched that video of those people going down, including 195 00:12:35.279 --> 00:12:38.399 the brain dead woman who went down face first and all. 196 00:12:38.519 --> 00:12:40.360 Chris, she's a woman, she doesn't know what she's doing. 197 00:12:40.559 --> 00:12:44.080 And I wanted to go down that thing so friggin bad. 198 00:12:44.200 --> 00:12:47.600 The one guy brought us bags, he's not going back, 199 00:12:47.679 --> 00:12:50.639 and you know what, you can blame that guy. Chris 200 00:12:50.679 --> 00:12:54.200 is mad at that guy. Maybe that's appropriate, maybe it's not. 201 00:12:55.320 --> 00:12:59.799 But you know, for a fact, with all the regulations 202 00:13:00.080 --> 00:13:03.600 and everything else going on, if you don't bring your 203 00:13:03.720 --> 00:13:08.960 carry on down the slide, it's days if you it's 204 00:13:09.120 --> 00:13:10.679 days before you see. 205 00:13:10.480 --> 00:13:11.360 That bag again. 206 00:13:11.799 --> 00:13:14.039 Maybe he did the right thing, maybe he did the 207 00:13:14.080 --> 00:13:17.200 wrong thing. I'll grab my bag too. I'm not gonna 208 00:13:17.200 --> 00:13:20.159 help you with yours, Chris. I'm grabbing my bag, though, 209 00:13:20.279 --> 00:13:22.960 I'm gonna go down that slide. Tell you for it 210 00:13:23.120 --> 00:13:29.360 suspends a worker who heckled Trump. These freaking morons. We 211 00:13:29.480 --> 00:13:32.039 talked about this a little bit last night, about how 212 00:13:32.080 --> 00:13:33.200 Trump gave the guy. 213 00:13:33.080 --> 00:13:33.840 The middle finger. 214 00:13:34.879 --> 00:13:38.480 The guy was shouting things at Trump. And the guy's 215 00:13:38.480 --> 00:13:42.200 been suspended because he's a UAW United Auto Workers guy, so. 216 00:13:42.440 --> 00:13:46.559 He probably won't even be fired. Maybe won't even be fired. 217 00:13:46.919 --> 00:13:55.759 But who chances that if you're a UAW worker, you 218 00:13:55.919 --> 00:14:01.279 make great money. And those guys have the most ridiculous, 219 00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:05.519 over the top gold plated retirement where they work for 220 00:14:05.720 --> 00:14:07.320 I don't know what the number of years is now. 221 00:14:07.320 --> 00:14:10.919 They're always renegotiating things. But once you hit that number 222 00:14:11.000 --> 00:14:15.200 of years, man, you can work at Ford for a 223 00:14:15.240 --> 00:14:18.320 while and then you retire on a beach in Florida 224 00:14:18.679 --> 00:14:20.919 with your boat if you want to. You may not 225 00:14:21.039 --> 00:14:24.559 be a multi multi millionaire, but you're doing just fine 226 00:14:24.639 --> 00:14:29.960 the rest of your life. Who risks that to yell 227 00:14:30.159 --> 00:14:35.159 something at Donald Trump? I don't even understand how these 228 00:14:35.240 --> 00:14:39.559 people think. Even if you hate Donald Trump, even if 229 00:14:39.600 --> 00:14:43.039 you hate his freaking guts, who would chance that? 230 00:14:43.799 --> 00:14:45.559 Who would chance at some emails? 231 00:14:45.639 --> 00:14:51.399 Jesse, You're correct that price controls result in shortages, But 232 00:14:51.519 --> 00:14:54.039 in the case of credit cards, would it not be 233 00:14:54.120 --> 00:14:57.600 a good thing to limit the spread of easy credit? 234 00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:01.320 There is an argument to be made preventing people from 235 00:15:01.399 --> 00:15:06.200 falling into abusive credit is a social good. Personally, I'm 236 00:15:06.240 --> 00:15:08.440 on the fence. I have nearly eight hundred credit I 237 00:15:08.480 --> 00:15:11.000 pay off my cards, but it might be better for 238 00:15:11.080 --> 00:15:14.480 the welfare of the poor to prevent them from falling 239 00:15:14.519 --> 00:15:16.000 into the credit card trap. 240 00:15:16.240 --> 00:15:18.799 Oh I don't. I'm not gonna push back on you 241 00:15:18.840 --> 00:15:19.159 on that. 242 00:15:20.200 --> 00:15:26.639 Those check cashing places, the payday loan places, the places 243 00:15:26.679 --> 00:15:30.039 where basically you get an advance on your paycheck and 244 00:15:30.080 --> 00:15:32.840 then they take a huge percentage of your paycheck when 245 00:15:32.879 --> 00:15:36.120 it actually comes in. I hate that stuff. I hate 246 00:15:36.159 --> 00:15:40.000 that stuff. When I was ranting about putting this cap 247 00:15:40.080 --> 00:15:43.960 on credit card fees, don't take that as I want 248 00:15:43.960 --> 00:15:47.120 people or to run up credit card fees. Don't take 249 00:15:47.159 --> 00:15:50.519 that as a defense of credit card companies or anything 250 00:15:50.600 --> 00:15:53.159 like that at all. It's none of those things at all. 251 00:15:53.879 --> 00:16:02.519 My point was price controls. Price controls are always an 252 00:16:02.559 --> 00:16:08.279 easy sell for a politician every single time, one hundred percent. 253 00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:08.519 Of the time. 254 00:16:08.919 --> 00:16:13.120 You know why, Well, whatever they're proposing price controls on, 255 00:16:14.240 --> 00:16:17.799 it's something that's too expensive, it's something that is burying 256 00:16:17.840 --> 00:16:20.799 people financially, something that is putting things out of reach 257 00:16:20.919 --> 00:16:24.120 for people. And so when a politician steps up and 258 00:16:24.200 --> 00:16:28.360 says no more. I'm going to lower the prices on this. 259 00:16:28.799 --> 00:16:30.639 I'm going to put a cap on how much they 260 00:16:30.720 --> 00:16:36.600 can charge. The masses will always cheer for that, and 261 00:16:37.480 --> 00:16:43.559 every single time, without exception, the people who cheer for 262 00:16:43.639 --> 00:16:47.519 it end up hurt in the end because they come 263 00:16:47.840 --> 00:16:51.919 with shortages. Now you can't get it. But that goes 264 00:16:51.960 --> 00:16:55.320 to this guy's point, Well, then people won't be able 265 00:16:55.360 --> 00:17:00.000 to get credit cards. Okay, but it will extend beyond 266 00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:04.319 on credit cards. And I want you to be able 267 00:17:04.359 --> 00:17:06.720 to get a credit card if you want a credit card. 268 00:17:07.240 --> 00:17:09.720 I think that's a good thing. All right, we have 269 00:17:09.799 --> 00:17:14.200 more hang on. It is the Jesse Kelly Show on 270 00:17:14.480 --> 00:17:18.480 a Fantastic Wednesday. Member, you can email the show Jesse 271 00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:23.240 at Jesse kellyshow dot com. So tell you a story, 272 00:17:24.319 --> 00:17:27.960 a little brief story. There was a guy I knew. 273 00:17:28.000 --> 00:17:34.079 He's in this industry and he knew a billionaire. I'm 274 00:17:34.079 --> 00:17:37.119 not going to tell you who this billionaire is. You 275 00:17:37.160 --> 00:17:40.440 would maybe know the name, maybe not, but he knew 276 00:17:40.440 --> 00:17:46.720 a billionaire. The guy, the billionaire was involved with professional sports, 277 00:17:47.400 --> 00:17:51.480 but before he got involved in professional sports, he made 278 00:17:51.599 --> 00:17:55.119 his billions with one specific industry. 279 00:17:55.200 --> 00:17:55.799 Are you with me? 280 00:17:55.920 --> 00:17:56.000 So? 281 00:17:56.240 --> 00:18:02.119 Billionaire makes his billions with one specific in street. All right, now, 282 00:18:03.200 --> 00:18:09.960 this billionaire, my buddy was, I say, going into business 283 00:18:10.000 --> 00:18:13.759 with the billionaire. But how it worked was my buddy 284 00:18:13.920 --> 00:18:16.200 was the one who knew the business he wanted to start, 285 00:18:16.400 --> 00:18:20.359 knew what he wanted to do. The billionaire he was 286 00:18:20.440 --> 00:18:22.759 just the money behind it. He's going to put up 287 00:18:22.799 --> 00:18:25.160 the money. My buddy's going to start the business and 288 00:18:25.240 --> 00:18:29.319 run the business. The billionaire is obviously hoping to get 289 00:18:29.359 --> 00:18:33.720 a return on his investment. All right, you got it. Now, 290 00:18:35.799 --> 00:18:40.799 my buddy ran into problems, many, many, many problems with 291 00:18:40.960 --> 00:18:43.920 this business. And we were having a long talk one 292 00:18:44.039 --> 00:18:49.400 night about about these problems, and I asked him why, 293 00:18:50.200 --> 00:18:53.480 what's the issue. Why do you keep running into problems? 294 00:18:54.119 --> 00:18:57.279 And he said, well, it's I'm just gonna that's not 295 00:18:57.359 --> 00:19:01.680 his name, but it's Bob, Bob the billionaire. And I said, 296 00:19:02.640 --> 00:19:06.759 why what's Bob doing? He said, well, Bob has all 297 00:19:06.799 --> 00:19:10.920 these ideas, and because it's his money, he wants me 298 00:19:11.039 --> 00:19:15.839 to try to implement his ideas, to which I naive. 299 00:19:15.960 --> 00:19:21.240 Jesse said, okay, well, I bet he's got some smart ideas. 300 00:19:22.039 --> 00:19:24.960 He's a billionaire, and that's where my. 301 00:19:24.920 --> 00:19:32.400 Buddy gave me the look, and he said, Jesse, many billionaires, 302 00:19:32.440 --> 00:19:39.799 not all, but many billionaires. They tried a million things 303 00:19:40.039 --> 00:19:44.559 and failed at a million things before they were billionaires, 304 00:19:45.799 --> 00:19:51.240 and after they become billionaires because one thing they tried hit, 305 00:19:52.079 --> 00:19:57.359 they'll try a million more things, and almost all of 306 00:19:57.480 --> 00:20:03.319 those things failed. To the billionaire oftentimes, as my buddy 307 00:20:03.359 --> 00:20:05.640 explained to me, I'm paraphrasing. 308 00:20:05.759 --> 00:20:09.920 He is bold. He's a man willing to take chances. 309 00:20:10.680 --> 00:20:14.359 And he's a man who takes enough chances he rolls 310 00:20:14.440 --> 00:20:19.400 the dice enough times that eventually he rolls a double 311 00:20:19.480 --> 00:20:23.279 sixes and gets to luxuriate on a yacht the rest 312 00:20:23.279 --> 00:20:26.680 of his life. But what it does not do, what 313 00:20:26.720 --> 00:20:32.039 it does not mean, is that guy he's not intelligent 314 00:20:32.279 --> 00:20:36.640 at everything. So if the guy made a billion dollars 315 00:20:37.039 --> 00:20:42.319 starting car companies across the country, he sells Hondas across 316 00:20:42.319 --> 00:20:45.839 the country, that's not what this guy did. He's mister billionaire, 317 00:20:46.079 --> 00:20:51.519 mister Honda dealership billionaire. That doesn't mean he knows how 318 00:20:51.519 --> 00:20:56.160 to run a professional sports team. That doesn't mean he 319 00:20:56.279 --> 00:20:59.960 knows how to sell stamps. That doesn't mean he knows 320 00:21:00.119 --> 00:21:04.720 about the newest internet technology. And the problem is now 321 00:21:04.759 --> 00:21:10.640 that he's a billionaire. He thinks he does. He thinks 322 00:21:10.680 --> 00:21:14.119 he does. It's perfectly natural. What do you mean, I 323 00:21:14.200 --> 00:21:17.759 don't know. I have this army of staffers around me. 324 00:21:18.000 --> 00:21:20.640 I have a personal assistant. I flew here on a 325 00:21:20.680 --> 00:21:23.920 private jet. Everyone I meet is nice to me and 326 00:21:23.960 --> 00:21:28.119 tells me how wonderful and smart I am. I'm a billionaire. 327 00:21:28.359 --> 00:21:32.000 It's an exclusive club. I can do anything. But the 328 00:21:32.079 --> 00:21:41.480 truth is, at many things, billionaires are morons. They're great 329 00:21:42.640 --> 00:21:50.079 at something, maybe a couple things, but they're morons. Oprah Winfrey. 330 00:21:50.920 --> 00:21:53.880 I don't care for Oprah Winfrey because she's spent her 331 00:21:53.920 --> 00:21:59.160 career luxuriating in America while also complaining that America is racist. 332 00:22:00.200 --> 00:22:01.119 I'm so oppressed. 333 00:22:01.240 --> 00:22:05.240 Oh my yacht, I'm so tired of that. So I 334 00:22:05.279 --> 00:22:07.960 can't say an Oprah Winfrey anyway. I'll admit that. But 335 00:22:09.559 --> 00:22:11.240 Oprah Winfrey went on the view. 336 00:22:13.000 --> 00:22:16.319 She said this, Now, I understand that if you carry 337 00:22:16.720 --> 00:22:19.680 the obesity gene, if that is what you have, that 338 00:22:19.880 --> 00:22:24.440 is what makes you overeat, you don't overeat and become obese. 339 00:22:24.680 --> 00:22:29.799 Obesity causes you to overeat. Obesity causes you to have 340 00:22:29.920 --> 00:22:31.359 all of that food noise. 341 00:22:34.839 --> 00:22:39.799 That is the dumbest thing I've ever heard in my 342 00:22:40.359 --> 00:22:41.799 entire life. 343 00:22:43.680 --> 00:22:49.400 Eating doesn't make you obese. If you're obese, that's why 344 00:22:49.440 --> 00:22:49.920 you eat. 345 00:22:50.799 --> 00:22:55.640 But this is exactly what I mean. Oprah is a 346 00:22:56.240 --> 00:23:01.440 brilliant media business person. Brilliant. 347 00:23:01.920 --> 00:23:04.880 She knows her way around the media world. 348 00:23:04.960 --> 00:23:08.680 Quite well, when to buy, when to sell, what to do, 349 00:23:08.839 --> 00:23:13.359 what people are looking for. Brilliant by any measure. But 350 00:23:13.480 --> 00:23:17.480 you start leaning on these people for advice on how 351 00:23:17.519 --> 00:23:20.839 to do your taxes, and you find out that there's 352 00:23:20.920 --> 00:23:24.200 some of the dumbest freaking people on the face of 353 00:23:24.240 --> 00:23:24.799 the planet. 354 00:23:25.480 --> 00:23:27.200 And the problem with that is if you. 355 00:23:29.160 --> 00:23:33.039 Tell me I'm dumb at something like nutrition, and that 356 00:23:33.079 --> 00:23:34.559 would be a good thing, I would be dumb at 357 00:23:34.759 --> 00:23:35.720 you tell me I'm dumb. 358 00:23:35.759 --> 00:23:38.960 I don't know nutrition. Okay. 359 00:23:40.559 --> 00:23:42.480 I have people around me that'll call me dumb all 360 00:23:42.519 --> 00:23:47.680 the time. My best friends do, Chris does, Corey does, wife. 361 00:23:47.960 --> 00:23:49.799 My boys will make fun of me when I say 362 00:23:49.880 --> 00:23:56.160 or do something stupid. But when you're a billionaire, there's 363 00:23:56.359 --> 00:24:02.920 nobody around you to say, hey, billionaire Jesse, that's really dumb. 364 00:24:03.880 --> 00:24:08.960 You shouldn't say that anymore because that's dumb. You don't 365 00:24:09.039 --> 00:24:13.039 have those people in your life. You've censored those people 366 00:24:13.079 --> 00:24:16.359 out of your life. You have a full bank account, 367 00:24:16.640 --> 00:24:19.799 more money than you can ever spend, and you think 368 00:24:19.920 --> 00:24:24.559 you're brilliant at everything, and you're just not just not 369 00:24:24.920 --> 00:24:30.880 speaking a brilliant California. You know, we talked forever about 370 00:24:30.880 --> 00:24:34.119 how there's no guardrails anymore in these blue states. There's 371 00:24:34.160 --> 00:24:38.799 nothing to hold the communists back. Well, California has been 372 00:24:38.799 --> 00:24:46.319 pushing hard for a wealth tax, a one time five 373 00:24:46.759 --> 00:24:53.039 percent tax on billionaires, telling billionaires five percent of your 374 00:24:53.079 --> 00:24:56.039 net worth you're going to stroke a check to the 375 00:24:56.079 --> 00:25:01.559 state of California for it. This thing has gained so 376 00:25:01.799 --> 00:25:08.400 much momentum. I read something today that the total wealth 377 00:25:08.960 --> 00:25:16.000 that has left California is one trillion dollars. In case 378 00:25:16.039 --> 00:25:22.400 you're wondering, that's half the wealth in California. They had 379 00:25:22.519 --> 00:25:28.880 two trillion. There's only one trillion left. Now Gavin Newsom 380 00:25:29.519 --> 00:25:33.799 is having to come out publicly and wash his hands 381 00:25:33.839 --> 00:25:36.920 of the whole thing and try to wop the whole 382 00:25:37.000 --> 00:25:41.759 thing back. But by now it's too late. And this 383 00:25:41.839 --> 00:25:45.440 is what happens in blue states when there are no 384 00:25:46.079 --> 00:25:50.720 limiting principles, when there are no guardrails, when there's nothing 385 00:25:50.759 --> 00:25:51.759 to hold you back. 386 00:25:52.079 --> 00:25:53.240 Do you have any. 387 00:25:53.000 --> 00:25:56.400 Idea if you're listening in California right now, how much 388 00:25:56.440 --> 00:26:00.599 your life is probably going to get worse because half 389 00:26:00.720 --> 00:26:04.359 of the state's wealth already left. Do you think those 390 00:26:04.400 --> 00:26:07.559 scumbag communists who run your city, or your county or 391 00:26:07.599 --> 00:26:10.519 your state are going to be cutting your taxes? Do 392 00:26:10.599 --> 00:26:12.960 you think they're going to be cutting the budget? Not 393 00:26:13.119 --> 00:26:17.039 a chance at all. To vote for a Democrat in 394 00:26:17.079 --> 00:26:20.680 the year twenty twenty six is to vote for endless destruction. 395 00:26:21.960 --> 00:26:26.319 All right, one more, It's The Jesse Kelly Show.
