Speaker 1

This is a podcast from wr Jesse Kelly Show. Another hour of The Jesse Kelly Show on a Wednesday. We'll make fun of Democrats being lost here in a moment that's a really good time. We'll talk about the idiocy of sending five thousand dollars checks to everybody. That'll be less of a good time. I'm sure that'll get the hate mare pouring in. Who there's some emails, some other things coming up on the second hour of The Jesse Kelly Show. Now, let's talk about the other side and

how they're doing out here. Not well is the answer to it? Lost is what they are. I saw yet another poll this morning that says about thirty five percent of Democrats want them to be more liberal, more communists than they are, and roughly the same number, about thirty five percent want them to moderate. So what does that tell you a lot of people know there's a pro problem, a major, major, major problem. They want it fixed. The problem is an equal number of people inside the Democrat

Party are religious. They do not want to convert. They can't give up this oppressor, oppressed way they view the world, and in fact they want to double and triple down on it. This creates a nightmare scenario for Democrats. It really does create a nightmare scenario for them. And let me explain why I talk about this the way I talk about it. As I've said many times, I want the Democrat Party to perform and get better. That sounds crazy, and I know it sounds crazy out of my mouth

because of what a hardcore anti communist I am. But like I said, we can't keep this country. I love the country you love together. We can't keep it together for another one hundred two hundred years if Democrats are trying to burn it down, because they will take power again, they will get elected president again, they will have the House again. The set of these things will happen. And if there's still a party that's run by people who want to burn it down, we can't build as fast

as they can destroy. I've used the example and it's the best one. Of immigration numbers, Joe Biden brings in twenty million illegals in four years. I'm getting emails every day from you, Jesse. Trump isn't deporting them fast enough. He's thinking this is not enough. These numbers don't add up. I told you it wasn't going to be twenty million deportations. You can't find and depour twenty million people. You can't

build as fast as you can destroy. We cannot continue for another century, two centuries if Democrats are still the party of burn America down. That is why I am fascinated and interested by what's going on over there. But you want to talk about lost, this is where they're at now. The most sustained campaign I've seen so far from Democrats is sobs stories about fired federal workers. I mean,

there are more than I can count. It's the most sustained propaganda effort I have seen since Donald Trump was sworn in. Here it is headline National Park rangers fired from dream job on Valentine's Day pens an emotional viral letter. Things are not okay, he says, Oh that was just one another one. Doge dismantles the job security of federal work.

This is of course from Axios. One of the gem quotes in here from one of these federal workers is quote, the mentality that federal workers have that their jobs are protected no longer exists anymore. Even if you're not celebrating a federal worker being fired, I guess that, but you federal workers who are being fired. Do you understand what that sounds like to all of us who live like that every day? You might get laid off any day today. Maybe I could get fired tonight. We're wrong about Premier

is very happy. But you never know. Maybe there's a big iHeart restructuring, or maybe there's some kind of lawsuit. Who knows, Maybe I offended one too many people. This could be my last show ever, might be the last time you ever hear my voice. That's how we all exist. I don't know about you, but because I have been out of work before in the past, and I know what that feels like, and I know what it's like to watch the bills pile up. My wife and I we do not spend what we make. Why. It's not

so we can go to Barbados. Never been to Barbados. We don't spend what we make because we always plan on being out of work at some point in time. It could have been during the next commercial break. I might get a phone call, Hey, Chris, shut down the feed, Jesse Kelly shows off the air. I'm out of work.

Speaker 2

That's how you live? Is that not how you live? You might get fired tomorrow. This is how normal people live. But the Democrat Party is so lost, so reaching for some kind of emotional connection to Americans. The best they can do is parade these federal workers in front of US, workers who thought they were untouchable, and tell them and.

Speaker 1

Tell us that we should feel bad for them. Now we get things like this, We get federal workers who were fired levying threats like this, and they think this is going to endear us to this.

Speaker 3

Civil servants have a lot of protections under the law, and we're only supposed to be fired if our performance falls short on the job. So what has happened is that the administration has fired us. We call it layoffs sometimes, but that's not what it is. It's an illegal firing. And you know, it's just not credible to say that thousands of people were determined to fall short of expectations. I mean, literally every probationary employee at my agency was fired.

It can't be literally that we all fell short.

Speaker 1

So what can you do now?

Speaker 4

Can you do anything?

Speaker 1

Now?

Speaker 4

Are you going to do anything now?

Speaker 3

Of course, my colleagues and I are fighting back. Our union is already in court. They've brought a couple of cases that I think we'll see action in in the next few weeks. And you know, all I can say is that Elon Musk and the President picked the wrong bunch of lawyers to mess with.

Speaker 1

Now we have fired federal employees going on television shows threatening the Trump administration, and Democrats are so lost they think that that will somehow endear them to the American people, or this or this communist. As you listen to this woman, this is going to hurt, but I'm just gonna say it anyway. I want you to keep in mind that you went to work to well, not today because she's gone, but for years and years and years, as long as you've worked, you've gone to work. I'm sorry, Chris, I

have to say it. You've gone to work, and that money the government has taken out of your paycheck has paid this vile communist salary for years and years and years and years and years. You paid the salary, you paid the benefits, you paid this communist to work inside the federal government to destroy your culture.

Speaker 5

And your contra Caational Cancer Institute funded study was terminated.

Speaker 1

I never received a.

Speaker 5

Written letter, but I was told to stop work immediately

and that no more research expenditures would be allowed. My study to explore how to safely collect sexual orientation and gender identity and cancer care practices was in response to the American Society of Clinical Oncology, the American Medical Association, the US Preventative Services Task Force, in many other national professional standard setting bodies that recognize that we need better data to create better clinical guidelines for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender,

queer and interterseex people.

Speaker 1

I'm sorry to do this to you. I am you know. I'm not a big apologize person, but I'm going to play that one more time. I swear no. Sorry, Chris, I'll try to I'll try. No, don't stop it, Chris, I'll try to make this the last time. I know it's heavy, it is.

Speaker 3

As heavy as ten boxes that you might be moving.

Speaker 1

But I want you, I want you to soak up every single word, because this lady is not some kind of a one off you me. We have been paying the communists to destroy us from within, and the party is now so lost. They will stand in front of television cameras with bullhorns explaining what they've done with our

money to our culture. Listen to what you have paid for and remember this if you ever, ever, ever, ever even consider voting Democrat again, play this for your liberal aunt Pegy and inform her that this is the crap she pays.

Speaker 5

National Cancer Institute funded study was terminated. I never received a written letter, but I was told to stop work immediately in that no more research expenditures would be allowed.

My study to explore how to safely collect sexual orientation and gender identity and cancer care practices was in response to the American Society of Clinical Oncology, the American Medical Association, the US Preventative Services Task Force, and many other national professional standard setting bodies that recognize that we need better data to create better clinical guidelines for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and intersex people.

Speaker 1

And remember those poll numbers I read you about how lost Democrats are. Half want them to moderate, but then half want them to go further The problem is that woman, the one you just heard, she's one of the brands, one of the types that want them to go further left. Does that sound like the type of human being who's going to be convinced that she needs to moderate a little bit in order to win Michigan parties in trouble?

All right? Now, let's do a couple emails, because there are some things we need to get to before we get to five thousand dollars steamy checks. Hang on, Jesse Kelly is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Wednesday. Remember you can email the show Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com. Also, we have our shipping expert coming up about ten minutes from now. Gosh, I'm going to freaking nerd out on that. But just a couple more words on how lost they

are right now? How lost Democrats are. Listen to these numbers, and remember this is not necessarily an embrace of the GOP. What I'm about to play you some of it is obviously an embrace of Trump. Trump is such a powerful figure that some of it is an embrace of Trump. But these disastrous numbers for Democrats are as much a rejection of the communist lunacy as they are an embrace of the GOP. You want to talk about a party that might be in the wilderness for a while.

Speaker 6

Donald Trump and the Republican Party has changed the electorate. What do I mean by that? Well, let's take a look at party identification, Democrats versus Republicans. You go back to twenty seventeen, five points more of the electorate was Democrats than Republicans. You go to twenty twenty one when Joe Biden was starting out, Look at that six points more of the electorate was Democrats than Republicans. But look at what's happened in February of twenty twenty five. Look

at this, Republicans. There are more Republicans in the electorate than there are Democrats Republican plus two. So Donald Trump and the Republicans have remade the electorate. They've turned some people over from being Democrats or independents to become Republicans. New folks have entered the ELA who are more Republican leaning.

And so when you combine that with the fact that Republicans are really really behind Donald Trump, all of a sudden, you get a winning recipe whereby you break the normal rules of politics and give Donald Trump that positive net approval rating when he had pretty much a consistently negative one and term number one.

Speaker 1

Why I don't understand why people would leave the Democrat Party.

Speaker 5

You mean they don't want to do National Cancer Institute funded study was terminated. I never received a written letter, but I was told to stop work immediately and that no more research expenditures would be allowed. My study to explore how to safely collect sexual orientation and gender identity and cancer care practices was in a response.

Speaker 1

Jesse, it finally happened.

Speaker 4

Oh.

Speaker 1

The title the subject to this one is I'm a failure as a parent. Ooh, Jesse, it finally happened. I've been fighting it off since my son was a baby, but I fear the Communists have put their hooks in my son. He is almost six and so far has been a great student of the Jesse Kelly Program for Anti Communism. But tonight at dinner, he had a turkey burger. Please don't blame me. I have made Jesse Kelly cheeseburgers

multiple times, and he loved them. I believe that communists figured out the easiest way to what person's heart is through their stomach. He listens to your show, and I know he may listen to you more than me. Can you please help get my son Tate off the gateway communism food of turkey burgers? Please help Jesse. His name is David Tate. Listen to me, son. We all make mistakes. I've made mistakes in my life. Many, many, many, many mistakes. Just because you did one bad thing doesn't mean it

has to lead to another bad thing. You realize that just because you tried black tar heroin once doesn't mean you ever need to do it again. You can stop now. Okay, you're sixteen, your brain's not even fully developed. You had a turkey burger. I get it. I understand that I watched one of my kids last night lose his mind. I get it. Stop it here, stop it here. Let this be a lesson for you to one day teach your son, your daughter that you can really go astray

when you're sixteen. Oh, Chris, I didn't even tell you and Corey about this. My son losing his mind last night. I'm not gonna name him, not gonna name which one it is. But they're fourteen and sixteen. The hormones. Do you remember? You both? Do you remember what it was like to be fourteen and sixteen? Aub and I. One of my kids is out of town, so Aub and I decide to take our other one out to dinner.

They love the dinner where they don't have to compete with their brother and they can just talk to you the whole time and we love it too. We just have great kids. We go to this Japanese restaurant run by a Japanese family and looking at the menu, and Obbs look at the menu, and I kind of sense that the waitress stands next to us, so without looking at her, I look up. So I'm getting ready to order my food. I look up at my son, and he looks up at her, and I admit, she was very,

very pretty. She's a very pretty young waitress. He did not hide his emotions very well. It looked like somebody'd hit him with a flash bang. He looks up at her and his eyes getting I know he didn't mean to. I've got to talk to him when I get home. His eyes get about as big as saucers, and she's trying to take his meal, and he's not all that smooth about it the whole thing, and I'm just sitting there shaking my head the whole time. I'm gonna have to pull him aside and have it. I know, Chris,

that's how you learned. Look, we all make mistakes, right, we all make mistakes. He was he was a little overwhelmed in the moment, right. He grew up fast last night, but gonna gonna have to talk to him to enough to have a little discussion with him about it. So listen, Tate, don't that turkey burger. Just don't ever let it happen again, Jesse. In addition to your other listener's thoughts on Commander Evans, Oh, this is on our USS Johnston talk from Medal of

Honor Monday, our two on Monday. iHeart Spotify iTunes if you want to go listen to it. He didn't just throw himself on that proverbial grenade, but he offered his entire crew as a sacrifice to the country. My point is, assuming he wasn't a narcissist, and he wasn't, he had approximately three hundred times the stones to do what he did. I'm not sure he said this, but one documentary had a quote quote, I feel like David without a slingshot.

He charged anyway one an example. Thanks for all you do. Yeah, it's that story of the USS Johnson that we told on Monday start of our two on Monday's show was really resonated with you, and I'm glad because it has always resonated with me. Just so much bravery, so much greatness is out there and it is still out there. Remember, these men didn't just live in the past. There today the men and women of today. You have that in you.

All right, let's nerd out on some shipping stuff. It has to do with China, America, the Navy, other things. Got a special guest coming up next, and then after that I will finally get to the stimmy checks. Hang on, it is the Jesse Kelly Show on a Wednesday, and it is time for me to put on my nerd hat because I'm so unreasonably excited to talk to my next guest. I look YouTube online videos. They've replaced what

television was from when I was a child. When I have some time at home sitting around, I go try to nerd out on things that interest me. Shipping, logistics, navies, these things interest me. As you know if you listen to the show. And I came across a gem of a YouTube channel called What's going On with Shipping? And the man who's responsible for that channel, sal Mercagliano, joins me. Right now, sow, first, let's discuss the past, shall we.

The United States Navy in World War Two. Most people do not grasp what a logistical marvel it was that we were able to fight the war in the Pacific the way we were.

Speaker 4

But yes, first, thanks for having me on, and I appreciate those kind words that you just said. I agree. I think the logistics is what wins wars. And if you look at World War two, I know, we get kind of enamored with, you know, the technology and the aircraft and the tanks and the you know, all the kind of really g whiz stuff. But in truth, the underlying thing was it was the logistics that allowed us to get the you know, the material, the arsenal of

democracy from the home front of the battlefront. And without that, really you don't have victory in World War two. And that was really the big thing that allowed us to fight a very long, protracted war, whereas other sides couldn't do it.

Speaker 1

Now, would you mind expanding on what has changed? Because the last thing I saw from you you would raise some concerns, some serious concerns about where we are now. Why is it different now? How can we get that many men, bombs, bullets, fuel food. How can we get that across the Pacific Ocean en mass back in the forties? Yet today we seem to be failing in a lot of these areas what were we versus what we are now and why?

Speaker 4

Well, I think just one of the things we did is we kind of turned our backs on you know, what made you know it was really the underpinning you know, we like to think of ourselves, for example, as a maritime nation, as a you know, a sea power. But you know, if you look at that kind of definition of seapower, you go back to the writings of people like Alfred they Er Mahan when he's talking about seapower.

It's not just naval forces, it's commercial forces. And what we decided to do post World War Two, and really accentuated even more in the nineteen eighties and nineties, was kind of outsource, you know, something we've we've been seen happen in a lot of industries across the United States, but we outsourced our shipping. And so where as at the end of World War Two, we had the largest navy and the largest merchant marine in the world, we were hauling sixty three percent of the world's goods on

US flag ships. We were the number one shipbuilder in the world. Today we find ourselves in a situation where we have the number one navy, in the world. But we're number twenty one in terms of merchant marine. And if you look at shipbuilding, China outbuilds US two hundred and thirty five to one. China right now is building over fifty percent of the world ships. We build zero point two percent of the world ships.

Speaker 1

Why should that matter to Let's say I'm not interested in the navy or anything like that, which I obviously see am. But let's say I'm just a normal American. These things history, Navy, World War two stuff doesn't concern me. Why would having a merchant marine that's not quite what it once was? Why do I care?

Speaker 4

Well? I think we got, you know, for my channel, what's going on with shipping. It all came into being when ever given when sideways in the Suez, and all of a sudden people found out how dependent we were on shipping. And then you add into it the global supply chain crisis that came in with one hundred and nine ships off of la and Long Beach. We saw what happened when the Dolly took out the bridge and closed in the American port for two months and two

to three percent of our imports exports couldn't move. I think you know. One of the things that I think is really important to understand today is a country like China, for example, which has a major shipping firm, the Chinese overseas shipping company Costco. Not the big box store, this is cos Co. They have you know, they control and

haul about fifteen percent of the world ships. And all Chairman g has to do to put pressure on the United States is tell the head of that company is like, hey, just slow down your ships, you know, come in late to the United States two days. That would cause massive disruptions in the United States. One of the reasons we should have our own merchant marine, and I'm a big

advocate for it. Plus, along with shipbuilding is it gives us the ability to absorb hits and not be so one hundred percent dependent on foreign shipping and foreign companies.

Speaker 1

Okay, now let's talk about the why Sal again, we're speaking with Sal Mericogliano. His YouTube channel is outstanding. It's called What's going on with Shipping? Why do we lose all this shipping? I mean, I'm a moron, but I have a map. I'm looking at all this coastline, east coast, west coast. We should be churning out ships by the dozen, but China is and we are not. Is this over regulation thing what happened to us?

Speaker 4

Sure? So, I mean you had a couple of things that really evolved that saw this. So one of the first things was you had during the Second World War, we use some shipping from other countries to help get around some rules and regulations and neutrality laws. So, for example, when we wanted to support the British in their fight against the Germans, before we got in it, we weren't allowed to ship something like one hundred octane fuel necessary for the Battle of Britain and their planes, so we

used Panama ships to do that. After the war, Panamanian registry was seen as a nice, cheap alternative. They were cheaper ships to operate, they were cheaper to build, they were cheaper to crew. And so what you saw was a proliferation of open registries. These ships that are out there that are sailing under the flags of the Marshall Islands,

Liberia and Panama. Now we're seeing the problem with that when you have someone like the Huthi, for example, start attacking those ships whose navy is supposed to defend them. Is it the US Navy or is it supposed to be the Liberian Navy, And I can tell you the Liberian Navy is not coming, so it winds up being US, even though we're not paying for that. Then you have really, you know, changes in technology. We saw, you know, the

US has been an innovator in shipping technology. We perfected the use of oil, oil and ships, which allowed us to sail longer distances. We came up with new technologies ultra large tankers. We came up with the concept of the cruise ship, the modern cruise ship. And more importantly, we came up with the idea of the container ship, which absolutely revolutionized our ability to move goods. If you look at the end of World War Two, we moved about a half a billion tons on the world's oceans.

Last year twenty twenty four, we moved over twelve billion tons, and so we are moving cargo faster, more you know, more velocity, and more volume than ever before. And in truth, what the US did was we just kind of really turned our back on the shipping side. We believed that you know, our allies and our friends and we could always depend on what was left of the US merchant Marine in time of war and you know, we would

have these allies, you know, in Korea, NATO and other places. However, what we're seeing now is that a lot of these shipping companies are big international conglomerates and you can't really rely on them the way they do. Their priority is their company and their stockholders, not so much the United States or even the countries where the companies are based.

So like Marriskan Denmark, you can't really sit there and say, well, Denmark's an ally, therefore marri School will be there if we need them.

Speaker 1

Why is China so good at it? Just because? Is it just a matter of will? Was it just a matter of they decided they wanted to be and they just pushed forward and made it so? Is that why China is better now?

Speaker 4

So if you again you look at how it evolved. At the end of World War Two, we help repopulate our Allied merchant marines. We sold them over a thousand ships to replace the ships they lost. We had the Marshall Plan that allowed them to rebuild their shipyards. But many of those countries in Europe and Japan, for example, they said policies that helped support their industry, so they provided either subsidies or a lot of incentives to promote

investment into those sectors. And what we've seen happen is kind of it shifted over the years. It was Japan and Japan and Europe, and then it went to Korea. But then in the early two thousands, China saw this as a key element that they could control the trade, and so they have invested heavily, not just in ship ownership. They're one of the biggest, for example, providers of merchant

mariners in the world. They control literally the production of metal containers, the big, huge shipping boxes around the world. And then the big thing they're doing, as I mentioned earlier, is they're really developing the concept of being the biggest shipbuilder in the world. This past year they are building on order over sixty three percent of the world ships. And they just realized that this is a way that

they can really dominate economics. They can control trade, and they can control the flow of imports and exports in and out of their country.

Speaker 1

So sal that was freaking awesome. We are going to have you back soon, and I enjoyed it immensely. His YouTube channel is what's going on with shipping. I appreciate you very much, brother, appreciate it.

Speaker 4

Thanks for having me. It's a great pleasure to be with you.

Speaker 1

I love that stuff. You have to let me nerd out every now and then, what, Chris, I need to nerd out every now and then whatever. At least my dog is going to live a long time, longer than yours, Chris. I give my dog rough greens. I know you don't have a dog. If you did, mine would live longer. Anyway. Fred takes rough greens. You know that. I say takes rough greens. It makes it sound like we're giving him

suppositories or something. He loves it. It's delicious. We pour it on his food, well, we sprinkle it on his food. It's a powder. It's a natural herbal supplement for your dog. It's got vitamins and minerals and digestive enzymes because your dog gets none of that from his dog food. Created by naturopathic doctor Dennis Black, the Ultimate Dog Levers, so

Don't forget. You can email the show. Love hey, death threats, all those are welcome to Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com.

Now let's have a talk. You can get mad at me about it, so you as well just get this out of the way. Now. First, let's be on just about something. What Donald Trump and Elon Musk are doing. Cleaning out the fraud, wasting, corruption in the government is amazing. I have a little birdie who told me that Donald Trump is pushing to balance the budget, also amazing. These are awesome developments. So what I'm about to say right now is it might sound nitpicky that we have to

have a talk here. First, I want to give credit where credits due. This is a couple hours ago. Donald Trump he is being very smart by publicizing all the waste and abuse. It's a little long, It's like a minute and a half, but Chris, go ahead, let the Commander in chief lay it all out there. He's explaining to people, look, look at all this garbage. We're fining.

Speaker 7

Twenty million dollars for fiscal federalism in Nepal. Listen to these numbers, he said, this is all fraud. Nineteen million dollars for or biodiversity conservation in Nepal. One point five million dollars for voter confidence. We want to give them confidence in Liberia. Fourteen million dollars for social cohesion in Mali. Two point five million dollars for inclusive democracies in South Africa. Forty seven million dollars for improving learning outcomes in Asia.

Speaker 1

Asians doing very well.

Speaker 7

They're doing a lot better than we do in the schools, aren't they. Two million dollars to develop sustainable recycling models to increase socioeconomic cohesion among marginalized communities in Kosovo and Escali and in Egypt. We're talking about hundreds of billions of dollars. I could I could better.

Speaker 1

Yeah, okay, So they're cutting, they're doing good, they're finding the fraud. I'm happy. I'm thrilled, and this is me. You know, I would tell you if I was if I wasn't. I'm thrilled, But I want you to imagine this. I want you to imagine that your house is crumbling. Termites have gotten in. Your foundation has cracked, been some bad settlement in your area. Your foundation is cracked. The termites have eaten through the studs in the walls. Your home is crumbling. Now on top of this, the plants

in your backyard, the landscaping, they've died. In fact, the plants in the front yard died too. You had a bad freeze. The plants have died. Now you decide you need to save your home, and you start digging in on the plants. You're tearing out all the bad plants. Let's get rid of these bad plants. These plants are dead. We got bad plants in the frontyard, bad plants in the backyard. You replace the plants and you have brand new landscaping. Are you fine in that home now?

Speaker 4

Well?

Speaker 1

No, you've prettied it up. It looks better from the outside, and you did things that mattered. But the foundation is still cracking. The studs are collapsing in the walls. What we are discussing with these doge cuts are significant cuts. I don't want to be dismissive of them. But the debt and deficit disaster in this country that we are already in and is getting worse. If you pay attention to this budget process, which you get to in a moment.

That's the foundation of the country. That is the crumbling walls in the country. The inflation you feel has not gotten better? Has it? Has your grocery have your grocery bill gone down? Your power bill when you're buying some Have you seen inflation relief? Now? Elon Musk came out

this morning. He's been floating it out there, talking about taking these savings, twenty percent of the savings, twenty percent of two trillion dollars and sending a five thousand dollars check to the seventy nine million dollars seventy nine minutes to the seventy nine million American taxpayers. It's not just an Elon Musk idea. In case you're wondering. As part of this speech Trump gave a couple hours ago, he came out and he said, this.

Speaker 7

Is even under consideration, a new concept where we give twenty percent of the DOGE savings to American citizens and twenty percent goes to paying down debt. Because the numbers are incredible, Elon, so many billions of.

Speaker 1

Yeah, we got it. We got it. I want a five thousand dollars check as much as you want a five thousand dollars check. Believe me, you should see look on Chris's face. No one wants one worse than Chris. But let me ask you something. Which number is greater five thousand dollars or even one percent of all the goods and services you buy in your life in a given year? One percent. I didn't even give you a high percentage. Think about everything in your life, add or

subtract one percent. I don't care which direction you go. Which number is greater five thousand dollars or one percent of all the goods and services you buy in your life. It's the inflation that is murdering us, all the inflation because the budget is out of control. That is the reason your standard of living is significantly lower than it was a few years ago. We don't need five thousand

dollars steamy checks. I understand the excitement we're finding the fraud, and I understand the sentiment it's my money, give it back. I get it. I'm not even criticizing you for it. That money must go to the debt in the deficit for the good of all of US, including you, you, me,

the good of the entire United States of America. The number one percent, if it is even one percent, Remember the inflation after the Inflation Reduction Act, how it blew up through the roof two, three, four percent and you couldn't afford anything any more. We're talking to five hundred billion dollar stimmy bill. No, no, no, pay the debt off, pay the deficit off, save the country, no bribery of the voters, save the country. I'm letting it go. I

wanna move on. I want to talk budget anyway. This has been a podcast from wor
