This is a podcast from WOOR.

Speaker 2

The Jesse Kelly Show, Another hour of The Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Wednesday. We have John Conrad coming up about a half hour from now. Everything you wanted to know about shipping, naval, shipping, merchant marine stuff. I love that stuff. And he has some eye popping things to say. He's a captain. We'll talk to Captain John Conrad about a half hour from now. Oh that in fact, we're gonna get dig into this CIA, FBI stuff, some emails, all that more coming up this next hour

of The Jesse Kelly Show. As I have returned to work. Now, let's talk about this one final word on this collective freak out. They're freaking out about USAID, but it's not only us AID. Remember, I want you to I want you to really really remember this. That is just the tip. That's just one of the first organizations that has been shut down by the Trump administration. They are going after the roots of everything, and that's why they're all freaking out. It's not just usaight, it's the CIA.

Speaker 3

The Wall Street journals reporting the CIA has reportedly just offered a buyout to its entire workforce, everyone in the agencies telling employees late today they can quit their jobs and receive about eight months of pay and benefits.

Speaker 2

CIA what FBI too, Rachel Maddow's crying, what about the FBI?

Speaker 4

Beyond that, they appear to be targeting all the FBI agents who are involved in any of the cases brought against January sixth rioters. If they are going to try to purge every FBI agent who took any part in any one of these well over one thousand cases, that's.

Speaker 2

That's Listen to how offended they are, and you know why they're offended. I touched on this a little bit the first hour. You know why they're offended. They're afraid. Of course, they're afraid. They're angry. Their power base is eroding, because their power base has always been holding on to

positions in government power. But they're also just flat out offended in the same way you would be offended if if your job, if one of your jobs at the office was to staple the papers before every big meeting, you staple the papers. Not glorious, not glamorous, But for thirty years you've worked in the same office and that's been your job. Staple the paper. You're the only one who does it. No one else even has a stapler. Hey, staple the papers, and that's your job. You've simply gotten

used to that being your job. You're used to being the only one in the office who does that job. That's part of your critical role. And then you wake up one day and it's time for a meeting and the boss introduces you to the new employee. Nobody likes. Hey, let me introduce you out of Corey. What what's Corey's job? We brought Corey in. He's gonna do a bunch of stuff. But one of the things he's gonna do, he's gonna staple papers before the meeting. How hurt would you be offended?

That's what democrats across the United States of America are currently experiencing as they watch Republicans finally, for the first time in my life, figure out power where it actually lies, and how to take it back. What you're hearing from them about usaid, is the exact tone of voice. It's the exact way they were freaking out when you, the individual citizen, started showing up at school board meetings. We

weren't even yelling yet. Who just showed up at school board meetings, or I should say, we weren't even running for office. We were yelling all of a sudden, wait, Republicans are showing up, normal parents are showing up the school board meetings. This is how many pieces of audio did I play for you? Of not some activists like me, a normal parent showing up in a school board meeting, some dad saying, dude, look at this. This is porn in the library. You're showing my daughter porn in kindergarten.

Why is this here? And how many bits of audio have I played for you about city council members threatening in with the rest shutting down the school board meeting, but we're done for the day. We can't do that. How many times did I play for you? How offended some card caring communist was. They're offended for a variety of reasons, but one of the main reasons they're offended is we've woken up. We're not supposed to care about

these positions of power. We're not supposed to figure out that that's how they fund everything, to figure out that's how they control everything. It's only them. It's only them who's supposed to understand power and how to seize it and how to wield it. And it's only them, and the fact that we are waking up to that has

these people freaking mortified. That's why you can go after a government agency that ninety nine percent of Americans didn't know existed a week ago, and you'll have Democrat senator after Democrat house members talking about being at war. We will not take this, we will fight back. And I've got called out because I've never been out here for a long time, and God.

Speaker 1

Shut down the thing.

Speaker 2

It we war at war over usaid, why would you be at war? Because you can send out executive orders to shut down the DEI Department of the Pentagon all day long. The communist understands that that's a temporary setback, but he'll just start up that same department when he goes back in. But if you actually shut down and expose to the American people the levels of government corruption put into place by Democrats over decades, well, what you're

actually doing there is threatening what genuinely matters. And that's why they're yelping when they were awfully quiet before. Without force, without government funded force, taxpayer funded force, without force, the communist can never gain power anywhere, and he knows it, and that's why he seeks out power so aggressively. He must grab it, and he must use it, because without it, the revolution simply dies on the vine. Jesse the Oracle Kelly. By the way, you can email the show Jesse at

Jesse kellyshow dot com. Jesse the Oracle Kelly. You've been talking about looting the treasury for as long as I can remember. With this new administration, we're seeing the first glimpses into the depths of corruption that has begun going on for decades. It's far far worse than we maybe not you ever imagined the global schemes to gut the country financially and enrich the elites. Now, look, it's worse that I've ever imagined either. I joke about being an oracle.

I'm not all knowing. I know it's bad. I've maybe a bit ahead of some of the politicians and knowing how bad it is. But how deep does this go? Well, Okay, there's an article out here, it's we're talking about. It's from town Hall, which I love. But town Hall they have a headline here that says the impressive number of federal workers who have taken Trump's buyout option. Hey, Chris, I know a rough number. Get me an exact number if you don't mind number of federal employees. Please just

get me that real quickly. So the headline is the impressive number of federal workers who've taken Trump's buyout. And you know what that number is? Twenty thousand, about one percent of the federal workforce. Twenty thousand. Okay. Apparently that Trump White House has a target of five to ten percent. So we've gotten rid of one percent of the federal workforce. The goal is a removal of five to ten percent of the federal workforce. Okay, so let's just think about

these numbers. We'll call it. We'll call it two million employees. It's close to the three. Last I thought I would have guessed three. Chris says, it's two point seven to three point four. No, we'll call it three. We'll call it three. That's number right there in the middle. We found that sweet spot to walk with me here, three million federal employees. We are under selling this, under selling it. We'll say ninety percent of those are Democrats. Okay, so

that's two point seven million workers who are democrats. Let's be extra extra generous, and say half of those federal Democrats. Yeah they vote Democrats, but they're not full blown communists. And that's being very, very generous. But let's say we have one point three million communist activists withinside the federal government. From inside the federal government, we've gotten twenty thousand of

them to quit. Good for Trump for that they want sounds like they want another one hundred thousand more oat. That's good, But I admit I had to drop algebra from community college a few times. But that leaves over a million communist activists still in positions of power in the federal government. That was me being generous. Remember those are generous numbers. I just walked you through the math. My point is not to be a Debbie downer. My point is they've been doing this for so so long.

The roots are so so deep. We are just starting you think this is bad, We're starting to glimpse just the tip. This is just the tip. There is so much more to come after this. Trust me on that. Have you given a tunnel to towers yet? I should say, have you signed up to give to tunnel to towers yet?

Tunnel to towers? Is that wonderful organization that rose from the ashes of nine to eleven, having suffered the loss they suffered, and decided they wanted to do something for all those wonderful fallen first responder families, all those gold star families. Something. How do you how do you comfort a widow an orphan?

Speaker 5

What?

Speaker 2

I don't know that there is a perfect way, but make sure she knows financially she's not up against it. Sure helps. They pay off mortgages for these people, built an entire community for these people so they can come together and heal together. And all they've ever asked for from us is eleven dollars a month. You sign up to give it automatically, you will never know it's gone. Tumber two t dot org eleven bucks a month. We'll be back. You're listening to the chest is the Jesse

Kelly Show on a Wednesday. I'll hump they remember If you miss any part of the show, you can download the whole thing on iHeart, Spotify iTunes. Also Jasmine Crockett the Democrat Party. Well they're in deep, deep trouble. And yes, I remembered Chris Captain Conrad, Yeah, I did. I kind of remember John Conrad's coming up in ten minutes to talk about shipping and all kinds of stuff. I remember before Jewish producer Chris that he didn't remind me anyway.

Democrats have a problem, you see, they have a couple different problems. The first massive problem they have right now is the Trump administration. Trump two point zero, after getting shot and arrested, had figured out exactly how evil communists are, and they decided they're going to go after the roots of communism, not just the surface stuff like normal. They're going to go after the government funded network of communism that has existed in this country for a very long time.

And this comes before they go after the Department of Education. Donald Trump promised many times on the campaign trail, and not just in the Republican primary, in the general election. Donald Trump promised to destroy the Department of Education. I am hearing word now that's coming quickly. Can you imagine what Democrats are going to do, because that's the source

of really all their power. What are they going to do if they lose government funding for communist activism and if they lose the ability to turn Aiden, Jaden and Braden against you. Now, destroying the Department of education is not enough to do that. But what do they do? And when you combine that with the Jasmine Crockets of the world, meaning Jasmine Crockett is one of these people,

one of these squad types. And the important thing to know about her is she's from a district that's all Democrats, So she's in the safest Democrat seat in the world, and she can run her fat mouth as loud as humanly possible and say the most despicable things humanly possible, and she's always going to get re elected. The problem

for the Democrat Party is they're being assaulted. Their funding is being assaulted, as Trump and Elon go after the government funding, but they're being assaulted by another entity to it's from the inside. They're being assaulted from the ones on the inside who they're blocking. Any Democrat moved to the middle or to normalcy, I don't think Democrats are

going to move to the middle necessarily. Been in order to tone down how they talk and try to sound more normal, try to sound remotely palatable to an American, a normal American. They have to change some things. You have to change how you talk about things, You have

to change how you speak. Demographically Honestly, the Democrats have become so enamored with DEI diversity, equity and inclusion that now white men especially and some white women too, but white men they feel like the Democrat Party hates them. That's not just me talking. Go look at the poll numbers. Go look at not only the pole numbers, go look at the trends. If you are a white man, not

just an active this like me. If you are a normy a white man in this country, really men in general, but white men especially, the poll number tracks this way. Might white men hate Democrats because they think Democrats hate them, Well, if you're a Democrat, we'll set aside the morality of that and how you should want everybody to get involved them, set aside all them. Let's just talk politically about taking power nationally. If you're a Democrat, you don't get there

without white men. You don't. It's not possible. And Democrats in part acknowledge this when they went and grab Tim Walls from Minnesota. As dumb and useless and weird as Tim Walls was the Harris campaign. Remember we had the internals, we said, we even played for you, the polster who said we're losing men we're losing men quickly, especially white men, were losing them. So they went and grabbed tim walls

to try to mitigate the white men losses. They know they are not going to be able to win national elections if white men think Democrats hate them. And that brings us to Jasmine Crockett. And let me clarify a right. The Democrats, the older ones, the Nancy Pelosis, the Chuck Schumer's, they know what I just said is true. Internally they're talking about it. We gotta find a way to get white men back. We got to stop demonizing white men. We got to stop doing this. But Jazzmine, you see,

she's in a really safe seat. So while the national Democrats are trying to figure out how to keep the DEI but let white men know we don't hate them. Well, misgluedon eyelashes has a different idea. It is really really a sad day. That was the complete wrong one. Hate myself here it is.

Speaker 1

I am tired of the white tears.

Speaker 6

Listen, if you are competent, you are not concerned when I walk into Congress every single day.

Speaker 1

You know why I don't feel away and why you can't.

Speaker 6

Make me doubt who I am is because I know that I had to work ten times as hard as they did just to get into the seat. When you look and you compare me to Marjorie Taylor Green or me to Lauren Bobert, there is no comparison.

Speaker 1

That is the light that we have always lived.

Speaker 6

So the only people that are crying are the mediocre white boys that have been beaten out by people that historically have had to work so much.

Speaker 2

Look, you could roll your eyes of get mad and throw things at the radio, that's fine, But you know what that is. That's electoral suicide. That's what that is. If they don't find a way to shut that woman up, they will find a way to primary her for a Democrat party dying to win back Michigan, Pennsylvania, in Wisconsin. This is suicide.

Speaker 1

I am tired of the white tears. Listen, if you are.

Speaker 2

Competent, Chris, go ahead and write this one down. You will see in multiple political ads next election cycle, probably in the midterms, you will see some version of this interview with Jasmine.

Speaker 1

I am tired of the white tears. Listen if you are.

Speaker 2

She's writing Republican ads for them. The last thing I'll say about Jasmine Is. I hate seeing her and Lauren Bobert fight. I would like it if those two would just hug it out, maybe on television. That's all I'm gonna say. Also, you should save a baby's life tonight. As long as we're on this subject, abortion usually comes up. Abortion's disgusting. It hasn't slowed down. And the bad news is we're two years after Roe versus Wade was overturned. It's picked up because now you can use the pill.

Now you just kill the baby in your house. How do we fight back against that kind of easily accessible evil. You could just murder your baby in your home, from the comfort of your couch. How do you do that? That's what Preborn does. They give out free ultrasounds, the ultimate tool and the fight for life. You want to save a baby's life, it costs twenty eight dollars, That's what that ultrasound costs. Preborn is giving these women, women who are about to board with their babies, giving them

twenty eight dollars. Well, giving them a free ultra sound that cost twenty eight dollars. She hears the heartbeat, she chooses life almost every time. Go to preborn dot com slash Jesse and Save a Life sponsored by preborn Captain John Conrad. Next the Jesse Kelly Show on a Wednesday, A wonderful hump Day, And as promised, I have Captain John Conrad and joining us now to talk about actually a couple different things. I want to talk a lot

of shipping with him. He has a lot of thoughts about that, but he also put up something pretty fascinating, wonderful read online today. I want to lead off with this, Hey, John, I call it the system, but I always say the system speaks with one voice. He turned on the news and this professor is saying the same thing as CNN, who's saying the same thing as MSNBC is, who's saying the same thing as Chuck Schumer. John, you want to explain that phenomenon.

Speaker 5

To be.

Speaker 7

Yes, I would love to, and I was just after the show. If you can go to my Twitter, John Conrad. I'm writing reply because a few hours later the New York Times got their number one hit man, Ezra Cline, to counter my calling them manipulative fools.

Speaker 5

What they do is.

Speaker 7

You used to have independent journalists, and I'm a ship reporter. I report about ships. So this is how I got that insight. I run gcaptain dot com, a maritime news site aware the destruction of independent journalists. So the New York Times used to have a dock reporter, and that doc reporter had a huge rollodex contact list of experts in the field that let him get these deep sources.

But starting you know, in the two thousands, with budget cuts and Craigslist and then Obama really nailed this, they got rid of those specialists. So there's no longer like a treasury journalist or maritime journalists, and they got these generalists.

So what they have is these bureau chiefs around the country who are looking at local news and when they see something that might hurt the narrative or explode around the country, they send it to the editor of the New York Times, who has an editorial meeting with the top editors and they decide on the narrative, how are they going to spin this story to make it usually

best for the Democrats. And what they do then is because these generalists, you know, these reporters who went to Columbia journalism school, but they don't have deep connections that these specialists had. They kind of pre form who the sources are. So they give the journalists. They don't outright say we want you to tilt this left or lie about it. They give them a pre determined list of sources. You know, someone like Bill McCrystal is a good example.

Talk to this guy about it, and they can kind of a flavor the bent will be. So if they want to be hard on China, they'll take someone on a PhD from APPROOFD think tank that's a little.

Speaker 5

Hard on China.

Speaker 7

If they want to go easy, they'll pick a source that is easy on China. And then so the journalist has, you know, the the story that they stole from the local news or wherever it was, and then they have, you know, this guidance from the editor. And then on top of that, they have these sources that are going

to you know, manipulate the story. And then occasionally it's usually organic, they push it out and then everyone all of the Hollywood and the media and the bloggers and all the left on X they read the New York Times to come up with the narrative, and then they go out and they distribute it. And how they control this narrative because everyone's independent is basic reward carrot and stick.

So if you if you copy the narrative, you get awards, you get a pull, a serprise, or a book deal, or maybe it's just travel to the Paris office to work on a thing. If you buck the narrative, as a number have done, then they are going to punish you. First, they're going to, you know what, reassign you to the local news in New York. You know that people don't read, and if you continue to buck the narrative, they may

fire you. And then if you continue to buck the narrative, then they are going to put you on the Wikipedia Blacklist.

And once you're on the Wikipedia Blacklist, I know because I'm on it, then Google takes that blacklist, sucks it up, and every time there's a search result for an article, well, when there's one by John Conrad, they're going to bury that on page three because the Wikipedia Blacklist says And so there's no fingerprint because Google didn't say, hey, we didn't we didn't penalize John or anyone else for being anti narrative. You know, we got it from Wikipedia, and

the Wikipedia comes up with the weird sources. You know, for me, they said I spamned it I wrote, which means I wrote too many maritime articles on Wikipedia, and so they said I linked it. That's how I got blacklisted. But the things different. And then if you're really bad, someone like our friend Jack Bozek, you know, they'll say you're a Russian agent, and they're going a full smear campaign, which in his case is ridiculous because he's literally a US Navy interlauser.

Speaker 2

Speaking with John Conrad, Captain John Conrad obviously a shipping band, but I wanted to ask him about this first and foremost. I swear we are going to get to shipping at some point, John, But I found you're writing on this to be really, really fascinating and revealing. It's something I've talked about a lot, so it sounds to me like what you're describing, and feel free to correct me if I'm wrong. Is what a lot of people, myself included,

referred to as the hive mind. How it's not necessarily one human being or one entity deciding things, but the hive mind itself has decided the These are the carrots, and if you choose these carrots, you will be elevated to hire ritzier positions, even go to Paris. One day. If you reject our carrots, then you will get the whip and you will find yourself covering the winter moon and Anchorage, Alaska in January.

Speaker 7

Don't have that right, absolutely correct, But it is more centralized than that, so you have you know, it's like the mafia with the Coppo Don's and the thing. And here you know, in my example, I say four star generals New York Times BBC, and you know in other countries too, Der Spiegel, these liberal things, you know, they're all meeting and talking at conferences and kind of predicting this, right,

and then they write they're kind of independence. So they whoever they is controlling it the blog, the elite doesn't tell them. It's more corrective action. So if the New York Times gets something wrong that the blod doesn't like, you know, someone within the deep state, maybe it's Obama, we don't know who will call the editor and he'll call all those friends at the other magazine and say, hey,

we got to change this narrative. So they like as light a touch as possible, right, so there are no fingerprints, and they trust these four star generals New York Times editor in Chief MPR editor in Chief to kind of handle things on their own and they only step in when there's corrective action, and of course to punish the low level soldiers, the journalists out in the field.

Speaker 2

How about that. He is John Conrad. Make sure you go read his stuff. Now, let's shift gears and actually get on what I told you I wanted to talk about, and that is something you are an expert on shipping. I'm going to ask the most open ended question you've ever been asked, But what are your shipping concerns right now? For us?

Speaker 7

All massive concerns. So China not only has a larger navy than the United States and everyone you know.

Speaker 5

Oh well, people forget the troops have to get.

Speaker 7

Over there, and if there's contested airspace, you can't fly in, so you have to ship them over there. Well, China has over three thousand merchant ships carrying supplies, bullets, food, fuel, and everything else. The United States only has eighty three in international service. And none of these ships have any defenses against drones or missiles like the sea wiz gatling gun on the Navy. We don't have any of that.

So as we're seeing in the Red Sea, we can't even get the ships past the HOUTHI so, how if we can't get our commercial eighty three, which isn't enough past the houthis, how are they going to get over to Taiwana where or Okinawa to bring the soldiers and the bullets and everything else.

Speaker 2

If there is a war, three thousand ships to our eighty three and our eighty three sound like they're virtually defenseless. I'll tell you what, John, I already I already kept you on for ten Do you have another few minutes on the back end of this to answer a couple more shipping questions. If not, that's.

Speaker 7

Fine, I have as much time as you need. Jessamine, happy to be here. Thank you for inviting me.

Speaker 2

We are going to talk about our shipping and a little bit more depth here in just a moment. Before I get to that. It's been all kinds of history talk tonight. It's all kinds of history talk period on this show. Do you know I love it? Probably that's one of the main reasons I fell in love with

Hillsdale College. Hillsdale College is one of those things where my disgust with the university system was rising at the same time my impassionate love for history was rising, and then you see this wonderful university that everyone, every parent wants their kids to get into, Hillsdale. Well, I can't get your kids into Hillsdale. I probably can't get mine into Hillsdale. But I can give you a free education

from Hillsdale, at least some of it. They're offering more than forty free online courses for all of us, not just for kids young, Oh, all of us. There's no cost. Hillsdale dot edu slash Jesse. You want to go nerd out on Roman history, go do it. You want to go nerd out the Book of Genesis, go do it. The history of the ancient Christian Church, go do it. No cost. It's made for Chris and you. Hillsdale dot Edu slash Jesse. We'll be back. It is the Jesse

Kelly Show with that the Jaws soundtrack. Chris, that's so dark right now. Now I'm freaked out. Everyone's freaked out. Anyway, We're are back with John Conrad. Captain John Conrad talked a little bit about the government corruption and media corruption really just a little bit ago, but we're focusing now on his particular area of expertise, one that fascinates me it's always fascinating me shipping. So, John, you just laid out that China has three thousand merchant ships, we have

eighty three and ours are completely undefended. So eighty three Chinese missiles and we have zero. Can you start with this? How did that happen?

Speaker 7

Well, it's interesting at the Hillsdale College because I was talking to Eric Prince and he went to the Naval Academy and they actually left the Naval Academy to go to Hillsdale because he thought he would learn more about ships there. So the Navy is really focused on the warships, the guns, the missiles, but what really makes a nation powerful is control of trade. Ninety percent of everything comes on ships, and you have these choke points that you control.

So Gibraltar, that's why the Panama Canal is so important, Greenland to get up to the Arctic, Singapore Street.

Speaker 5

And you know, the Navy's just been.

Speaker 7

Laser focused on warships, carriers and astrow and they're the best in the nation. But they've completely pushed the US Merchant Marine out of their mind. They've they've cut out their entire budget. No one cares about it. They've they've outsourced a lot of the regulations to the absolutely corrupt un maritime body in London, the IMO, And so you know, China saw that China doesn't necessarily care what it attacks. It goes after our weakest links. It wants to fill

in the things we're really bad at. So it's put this enormous amount of money into shipbuilding, to trade, to controlling choke points by having partnerships with Iran, who then partners with the Huthis.

Speaker 5

So this is you know, it's.

Speaker 7

The Navy's laser focus on warships. And then there are pearment prompts.

Speaker 5

Right, the Navy can.

Speaker 7

Only spend what they spent, and we used to build the carriers and battleships. Battleships like the Brooklyn Navy Yard was a Navy it was a government shipyard with government markers. Now all of the Navy ships are built by corporations like HII or General Dynamics, and they have to go get money from Wall Street. Well, Wall Street found out it's more profitable to put money in China these shipyards

because they have a higher turnover rate. And you know, if the inventory is just sitting on the shelves for six years, you're not making money, so they pull money out of your shipyards and put it over to China. And that's that's kind of the basics of how we got here.

Speaker 2

Okay, so again we're speaking with John Conrad. So if the if the money, the easy money is in Chinese shipping versus American shipping. So that's why our shipping's underfunded and China's is overfunded. Why is that a they have slave labor thing? Does it just come down to that.

Speaker 7

No, it's you know, these are big shipyards. You have to dig out like the graving dock, so the ship goes in and then they flood out the water. It's big crane's, big industrial equipment, and that has a capital cost.

Speaker 5

So if you if you're going.

Speaker 7

To buy a dry dock, you have to go to Wall Street and say I need ten billion dollars for a dry dock. And then you build the dry dock and you've got to maintain it for twenty years. You need to work for it. You got to build that equipment. That equipment RUSS. It has a lot of money associated with it. But instead you can hire some one like McKinsey Consultants to do a give them ten billion dollars for study on why our shipyards don't work. And then they complete the study and they give it to the

DD and guess what, the problem is still there. So they got to go back to McKenzie and say, well, the problem's worse now, and mckinzy goes, hey, give us twenty billion dollars. I don't these are hypothetical numbers. I don't want to focus on mackenzy. Could be any of the defense contractors. But the big thing is if they do a study, or if they do a piece of software or something else, they don't have to maintain it for the next twenty years. So they don't particularly want

to build ships Jesse. They would rather do studies and then think tank reports and other things they can generate revenue and not have the long term maintenance costs.

Speaker 2

Speaking with John Conrad, Okay, John, one more question and then I'll let you go. Tell me about icebreakers. Why I should care why they matter?

Speaker 7

Well, you care about icebreakers because Donald Trump said the other day we are going to build forty and this is a key component of the Greenland strategy. So there's the Greenland Iceland UK gap. If you see in the movie diplomat. The whole theory of that whole thing is

the importance of this gap, and it really is. You know, I don't particularly like that show, but it is that important because you know where if you control these choke points of the Red Sea and everything else, if we're able to shut them down, well, China can just go up into the Arctic, and Russia has forty ice breakers. So we really need to come up with a Maritimes strategy to secure these choke points, getting up the Barren

Straight and the Greenland Iceland Gap. So we need these ice breakers to be able to go up there, and none of our warships if we had to fight, if the you know, Chinese Navy goes to hide up there or the Russian navy, how are we going to get

up there if we don't have ice breakers. So fortunately Michael Waltz is the creator of the show Ships for America Act, which is going to reinvest in shipyards in the merchant Marine and those dirty logistics ships and things like fire boats which we don't have in San Diego and resulting in the big Bonham Richard fire. So he put this through Congress and then Trump picked him for National Security Council, and you know, I can't go into details, but Trump has big plans, not just ice breakers, but

other ships. And he did one more thing.
