This is a podcast from WOOR. It is The Jesse Kelly Show. Another hour of The Jesse Kelly Show on a spectacular Monday. Yes, we're going to get to this doj FBI stuff here in just a few because there's we have to have a serious talk about it. I actually wanted to do that first hour the way I did it because it leads us perfectly into where we're at right now. And we'll get to that in a few.
But you know what time it is. It's Monday, start of the second hour on Monday, and so we're going to do now what we do every single Monday, Medal of Honor. Monday. We take a Medal of honor citation, then we read it on the air.
That's it.
That's it. When you earn a medal of honor, most of the time you don't live the awful part about it, and they write up what you did. Some write ups are more elaborate than others, where they don't fill in the plane. I have decided I'm going to try to fill in the blanks with my knowledge of the events. But they do a write up on it, and for the guys who died and the ones who lived, but let's focus on the ones who died here for a few minutes. I love that they do a citation, right.
I love that they do a write up, and you'll get a plaque and all these other things. But it doesn't feel like enough, does it. And the reason it doesn't feel like enough is we don't read it. We don't remember, we don't read their names. We don't remember their names, we don't read the citation, we don't remember what people do. When I read these two you on Monday, I would guess that oftentimes most of the time, that's probably the first time you've ever heard the guy's name, right,
and you're not don't feel stupid about that. I'm the same way when we're digging through and I'm reading new ones, I learned new things all the time. I'm not saying, well, I know all these I don't know him either, because we don't celebrate them. We celebrate everything, but the guys that did it, and remember you. Not only can email the show love hate, death threats, ask doctor Jesse questions
for Friday. You can email in suggestions if you'd like them. Jesse, I had this is an email I unfortunately haven't been able to listen to you on a regular basis, so I'm not sure if you honored fellow Ohio Medal of Honor recipient David Francis Winder from Mansfield, Ohio. I had the honor of knowing Dave in high school before joining the Army in nineteen sixty eight and becoming a private first class in combat combat medic. Dave was the son
of a Presbyterian minister, religious and a codcientious objector. Thank you for your consideration. Okay, So in case you don't know, and the guy goes on to compare him to Desmond dos So, Desmond dos you may know the name of Desmond dos Cortes of mel Gibson. Mel Gibson made that movie Heartbreak Ridge. Remember that movie Heartbreak Ridge. Well, that took place on Okinawa. The reason Heartbreak Ridge was so successful, or the movie was so successful, is because of the
heroics of Desmonds. That was World War Two. Desmonds was a non violent man, conscientious objector. I believe he was seventh Day at Ventice if I remember right. But he didn't believe in hurting anything, harming anything, So he decided he was going to be a medic, and he saved a bunch of lives that day. Well, that wasn't only his story. This story takes place in Vietnam and David
Winder he was also a man. He did not believe in harming a soul or killing anybody, and in fact, he was so against the war for that reason that he almost fled to Canada, and then he decided it wasn't the right thing to do, said, I just decided it wasn't the right thing to do, and he wanted to go. He wanted to go do what he could without killing anybody. So he actually just know, as you listen to this story, he didn't carry a weapon on him.
That's brave, that's its own way of bravery. You know, we love the guys who carry weapons and bombs and grenades, but when you're in a hostile place, surrounded by people with weapons trying to kill you with said weapons, it takes a unique kind of bravery to just not have one at all by choice, and then to go on and do exactly what he did here.
Hey, honoring those he went above and beyond. It's medal of Honor Monday.
PFC. Winder distinguished himself while serving in the Republic of Vietnam as a sea your medical aid men with the company A After moving through freshly cut rice paddies in search of a suspected company sized enemy force, the unit started a thorough search of the area. Suddenly they were engaged with intense automatic weapons and rocket propelled grenade fire by a well entrenched enemy force. Several friendly soldiers fell in the fell wounded in the initial contact, and the
unit was pinned down. Responding instantly to the cries of his wounded comrades, PFC Winder began maneuvering across one hundred meters of open, bullet swept terrain toward the nearest casualty. I'll way back to that in a second. Unarmed and crawling most of the distance, he was wounded by enemy fire before reaching his comrades. Despite his wounds and with great effort, Pfc Winder reached the first casualty and administered medical aid as he continued to crawl across the open
terrain toward a second wounded soldier. He was forced to stop when wounded a second time. Aroused by the cries of an injured comrade for aid, PFC Winders great determination and sense of duty impelled him to move forward once again despite his wounds, in a courageous attempt to reach and assist the injured man. After struggling to within ten
meters of the man, Pfc Winder was mortally wounded. His dedication and sacrifice inspired his unit to initiate an aggressive counter assault which led to the defeat of the enemy. Pfc Winders conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity and action at the cost of his life were in keeping with the highest traditions of military service and reflect great credit upon him his unit in the US.
Army, and obviously he gave his life for this country.
H BA ba B.
Now, just before we get into the FBI and cleaning out the rot and what's happened right now inside of our government, we just we have a lot of things we need to be aware of right now, and there are a lot of a lot of things going on. Before I get to that, I just want to touch on these things before because I've read stories like this before, and oftentimes it's Vietnam where there's a rice paddy. Now,
I'm not going to insult your intelligence. I know you've seen enough movies, watched enough pictures on that you know what a rice patty is looks like a pond, but it's only it's the water's ankle deep. If that so, there's water there, but but it's open. There's no cover. Now, think about this. Have you ever been in a snowball fight, or maybe you're from maybe you're in the South, paintball something like that. You duck for cover when things are
coming your way, right, it's instinctive. We used to build snow fortresses in Montana. It's instinctive, even if it's not even if it's not deadly, even if it does really hurt that bad, you duck. If Jewish producer Chris crumpled up a piece of paper and checked it at me right now, I would probably duck. I don't want to get hit by it. I don't know what if it. You know the bravery it takes to overcome your fear and charge into an open field with no cover just
to administer medical aid to somebody. And most of these guys, most of them they die. The ones who live through something like that are very, very very rare, because when you charge out into the open with no cover, there's deadly lead flying all over the place, and they're going to start aiming a lot of it at you, and you're going to die. To do what he did is the equivalent of jumping on a grenade In World War One.
The stories are famous of the guys in No man's land, that's the area in between the trenches, wounded guys from a failed charge, laying out there, dying wounded, calling for help to their friends, please come help me, save me, and no one would come, not because they were cowards, but because to walk out in the open terrain was certain death. And so you had no choice but to sit there, maybe put a bullet in your body. It happened a lot, and that was it. That's the best
you could hope for. These stories are inspiring, man, really really inspiring. Credit to that young man is family and everything else. Okay, now we have to talk about something heavy, and you're gonna have to do some reading between the lines for me. Okay, but we're gonna talk about the FBI DOJ what's happening, what's not happening. And it's gonna be heavy. So look how heavy it is, as heavy as ten boxes that you might be moving. Get ready and after you carry these boxes, I know you might
be worried about pain. That's why relief factor is here. Carry the boxes. Even if it's ten, maybe it's twenty. Carry the boxes. Relief factors there to take away your pain. You see, relief factor doesn't mask your pain. It helps your body eliminate it. Forever. You ignore your pain and you try to tough things out, and then you're in a bad mood. You avoid doing things you love to do work, play, or even worse, you take something to mask it, which is horrible for you. Relief Factor is
a supplement, a daily supplement. It's one hundred percent drunk free. What it does is it supports your body's response to inflammation. Your body is already trying to make you pain free. Give it the help it needs. Try it. Three weeks is only nineteen ninety five. If you don't ever order anymore, fine, give it three weeks and see how you feel. One eight hundred the number four relief or relief Factor dot Com. We'll be back, Jesse Kelly return. It is the Jesse
Kelly Show on a Monday. And so now let's get to the nitty gritty of it. I wanted to do that talk in the first hour about the global forces. What does it work out there. There's a reason in country after country they're arresting the right wing political opponent, there's a reason they're arresting the patriotic citizens. This isn't just an American phenomenon. It's been happening, and so I just wanted to, you know what, let's walk through this chronologically,
shall we? Because Cash Battel, FBI Director Cash Battel, he came out, this was a couple of days ago, and he said this.
And as director of the FBI is a privilege to leave some of these brave men and women. And the only ass that I have of you in the community is the next time you see a cop, thank them. The next time you see someone safeguarding our schools, shake their hand. The next time you see our brave men and women of the FBI and the local and federal state police take down a violent terrorist, maybe give him a hug, because those guys, those gals are the ones that are going to keep continued to keep.
Now I know what your reaction was to the end of that when he talked about giving an FBI agent a hug. I'm not naive you were me. I'm you. I know exactly what your reaction was It was my reaction too, by the way. Uh yeah, I'm gonna pass on that. Can I give him some handcuffs instead? Can we prosecute them instead. I'm old enough to remember the evil secret state police agency attacking Americans across the country. And so when Cash came out and said this a
couple of days ago, you got upset. And I'm not pointing fingers. I got upset. It's not what I want to hear. However, we have to have a talk, and this talk is going to be difficult, okay, And I can't promise you a happy ending to it. So I want to first rewind a little bit. This was a few weeks ago, maybe a month ago. When was this, Chris? When did I say this? It was a little bit ago. It doesn't matter. January twenty third, Chris said, I said, okay, January.
Remember they were slow rolling the confirmations Cash and Pambondy, and I got really upset. This is a long, long cut, it's about three minutes, but it's me. Anyway, Here was me from January. Almost universally great military commanders believed in speed. Genghis Khan was infamous for this. Genghis Khan would just show up outside of your city. You had heard he was coming yesterday. And people don't move that quickly, right, But Genghis Khan knew I have to go quickly. It
helps me, it hurts them. Julius Caesar was infamous for this. All the writings still talk about it to this day. Famous for did I already say Alexander the Great he might be the most famous one for this. He drove the Persians insane. They brought these huge armies out. But wait a minute, he's fighting us here. He's not supposed to be here yet. Why how was he moved? Speed? Speed matters in life, and it most definitely matters in competition.
And I'm very, very very frustrated right now with the Senate gop at the speed with which these confirmations are coming down. Why do I not have Attorney General Pam Bondi yet? Why do I not have Secretary of Defense Pete hag Seth Yet? By the grace of God, we got John Ratcliffe's CIA in today. But it's still January twenty third, It's Thursday. It's been four days. We have heard from how many people and how many different reports have I brought you about what is happening inside the
walls of the federal government. Our federal government is a corrupt, criminal enterprise occupied by communists from top to bottom, communists who have waged war on you for the last ten fifteen years. And those communists are digging in. They are shredding papers, they are changing titles, they are deleting emails. They are doing everything they can do to burrow themselves into the government as deep and fast as they can before the reformers can get there. The ditches are getting deeper,
the booby trap are getting deadlier. Why was Attorney General Pambondie not confirmed thirty five seconds after Donald Trump was sworn into office. Why is the GOP Senate so weak and pathetic at best, at worst complicit and the destruction of this country? Where is John Thune? Where are these leaders? On January twentieth, the day Donald Trump was sworn in, it should have been vote head Sath Yes, vote Bondy, Yes, vote RFK, yes, vote reck with this. They could have
been boom boom, boom, boom boom. We've got him lined up. Every fifteen minutes, it's vote time. Let's go baby, get him in there. But no every single day. The communists in the government, who are still very much still in the government, are digging in, and the fortifications are getting deeper and wider and more difficult to overcome, and they
are moving quickly. Now, that was me from January. Let's have a hard talk the Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Monday, about to have a real hard to heart with you about something. So I played for you my comments from back in January. You remember I was very upset that night. In fact, judging by the emails we got, you were shocked at how upset I was that night. I was upset about the delays of critical confirmations the GOP Senate. We control the Senate. The GOP Senate moved
almost shockingly slow to get these nominations through. But it wasn't just that the GOP Senate moved shockingly slow. It was the nominations they kept until the end, because there were some that got in right away. Shoot, I think Rubio was there about five minutes after Trump was sworn in. Trump was sworn in on January twentieth, But there were some specific nominations that kept getting kicked down the road, and you Remember what I screamed about during that rant,
that speed matters. The reason you need to move fast is so you can wrong foot the enemy. The reason you don't want to delay is because every day you delay, it's a day the enemy's trenches get deeper, his walls get higher. Something interesting happened. Donald Trump was sworn in on January twentieth, and I'm looking at an article here from February sixth. This is from ABC News. The headline of the article is committee vote on Cash Betel's nomination
to be FBI director is delayed after Democrats object. Huh, well, let's think about this for a moment. Why now, hold on, hold on, because maybe you're sitting there saying, well, they're Democrats, they're going to lock shields, they're going to object, They're going to no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Yes. Democrats opposed pretty much every one of Trump's nominees, almost universally, with the exception of Rubio. Democrats voted against almost all of them, but they didn't delay them. But Cash Putel
head of the FBI. It really took a while. In fact, they even delayed it. Tell you what pause on that. We'll come back to it Pam Bondy. Let's remember something, Pam Bondy. She was one of the last ones as well, And in fact, Pam Bondy was choice number two. She was not Donald Trump's first choice to be attorney general. Donald Trump's first choice to be attorney general was Matt Gates. Now, Hoddan, think about the GOP senators and how they reacted to
other Trump nominees. They tried to raise a stink about heg Seth and got smacked around for it. But other than that, they confirmed all of them. RFK confirmed them all. Yet Matt Gates attorney general. He was a bridge so far that they couldn't whip the votes for him and dumped him in a couple of days. Then they went with option B Pam Bondy and kept her to the end. Okay, now let's go back to the cash Buttel thing. Donald Trump was sworn in on January twentieth, sixteen days roughly,
I don't remember how many days are in January. Sixteen days after that, the Senate Democrats came out and they announced that cash ooh, we're delaying him. But again I ask you why, because they weren't going to stop him even when even when Senate Democrats were delaying cash Battel, even when they were asking the hard questions about this or that or the book he wrote, there was never even the tiniest bit of movement in the Senate GOP indicating the GOP was going to vote against cash Battel.
Cash Battel becoming FBI director was never, ever, ever in doubt. He had, as far as I can tell, universal GOP support in the Senate. So why delay him? Why why not delay others? But why is it that the head of the FBI you want to wait as long as humanly possible before he takes over. I'm not going to tell you to hug an FBI agent, and I am also not going to do something else. I'm not going
to insult you by telling you to be patient. I'm not going to insult your intelligence or anyone else's and tell you that cash Patel is a saint and he'll be perfect. I don't know Cash Patel. I know him by reputation, and the people I trust tell me he's dynamite. Dynamite and they know. Look it's me everyone by now, Republican and Democrat, they all know. By now, I will fire away there are no safe spaces. I will fire away, and the people I trust tell me privately, no, no,
he's the man, He's one of us. So why are we getting public statements like this?
As director of the FBI is a privilege to leave some of these brave men and women. And the only ass that I have of you in the community is the next time you see a cop, thank them. The next time you see someone safeguarding our schools, shake their hand. The next time you see our brave men and women of the FBI and the local and federal state police take down a violent terrorist, maybe give them a hug.
Because those guys, why haven't you seen Why haven't I seen FBI agents arrested yet? Why are we getting press conferences talking about hugging FBI agents? Oh we're they're arresting people in the most most want of this. Then that's of course good. But why aren't they moving faster? Why what do you think the communists were doing with these delays? I warned you back in January, I think it was
three days after Trump's nomination. I was on the radio screaming this is as close as I got to screaming, screaming, this is too slow. Why because I knew exactly what the communists were doing. The day after election night, Election nights on a Tuesday, the first Tuesday in November, Wednesday, I promise you the Secret Police Agency was making preparations, preparations. Well, I don't know what specific ones they were making, but
I know they were burrowing deep. I know what sources, former FBI agents, who have great sources, former special agents, FBI agents. I know personally. I know what they're telling me about what they're hearing from inside the building. And what they're hearing is there are a bunch of vicious communists who are burned so deep in there. And not only are they burrowed so deep in there, they made preparations.
Now what kind of preparations would they make. I'm going to rewind for you one more time, and I'm going to play for you something you've heard on this show before. Ken Buck, he used to be a congressman from Colorado. There was a hearing ken Buck was getting ready to retire, right, so there was no reason to do what he did. The hearing was about all the evil things the FBI was doing, and this Republican congressman who was getting ready to retire, sat in front of the whole world and said.
This, I want to thank you for leading an agency, as you mentioned in your opening statement, that protects Americans from foreign terrace. That an agency that protects Americas from fries from China and Russian and cyber crime and public corruption and organized crime and drug cartels and traffickers and white collar criminals. And I want to thank you and the FBI for protecting law abiding Americans from the evil that exists all around us. And frankly, I am not
in favor of defunding the FBI. Nor am I in favor of splitting up the FBI. Nor am I in favor of using the home and rule for the FBI director.
Didn't you find that so odd? Remember? I found it so odd. I accused without evidence of ken Buck being compromised. Now let me put a final bow on this little thought, and then we could get to some emails. Next, it is the Jesse Kelly Show on a wonderful, wonderful Monda. Remember you can email the show Jesse at Jesse kellyshow dot com. And I almost forgot it was Transgender Day of Visibility today. That's a holiday, Chris, so happy transgender
Day of Visibility to Whoopee Goldberg and everyone else. Appreciate you very much. What Chris, it's fine can make jokes on the show. Now to put a bow on everything, I'm I'm not sure we all realize, and I have a very good idea of how bad it is. I'm not sure we fully appreciate how burrowed in the most evil communists are to every single part of this government. And I'm not sure we fully appreciate the mountain that
has to be climbed. And this was not me sitting here telling you to make all the excuses for these people, or I'm not saying that at all. I'm really not. They owe us, we voted and now they owe us deliverance. And you know me, I don't pull any punchers than anybody Trump administration included. I'm gonna make these demands, and you should make these demands. But I am here telling you inside the walls, it's worse than you can imagine. Did you think did you ever see the picture? We've
talked about it before. Did you ever see the picture of all the FBI agents in uniform kneeling during the Saint George Floyd protests? Where do you think all those agents are You think they're all fired? No one's been fired. Did you see remember when we talked about the FBI recruiting at Pride events? These Pride events are disgusting. They're not have nothing to do with it being gay, they're
communist grievance, disgusting, perverted grossness. Why would the FBI set up shop and try to recruit these people, and of course did recruit these people. What do you think those people were doing the day after Donald Trump got elected until now? What do you think they've been doing inside the FBI? And remember, this is an organization with unbelievable amounts of power. This is an organization from its very inception.
Hoover kept Herbert Hoover kept files, files of people. File Herbert Hoover, You idiot, j Edgar Hoover, Not Herbert Hoover. J Edgar Hoover. J Edgar Hoover, FBI director kept files on every politician of every party, blackmail files so he could ensure his agency was never touched, so he could get whatever he wanted. Did you think that that practice was done? What do you think the FBI spent two three months doing I don't know. I don't have the
answers to all these questions. But I know if I was an evil communist with the powers of the FBI, and I was concerned someone was going to step in and stop my communist revolution, I know I might gather some information on some people. How powerful does the organization have to be to get a sitting member of Congress who's about to retire to say something like this.
Thank you for leading an agency, as you mentioned in your opening statement, that protects Americans from foreign terrace. That an agency that protects Americas from fries from China and Russia and cyber crime and public corruption and organized crime and drug cartel.
This sounds like a man who got a knock at the door, same knock at the door. Many people in power have gotten a knock at the door that says, hey, Bud, I'm going to need you to be real nice to the FBI. Or ooh, got some damaging pictures here. Remember that little congressional trip you took to Amsterdam. Turns out some of that was on camera. Would be a real pity if your wife got a hold of these in the local newspaper. Anyway, I'm sure we can get your
support tomorrow. That's not something that happens in Netflix documentaries. That's how real life works, and the FBI has worked that way for a long time. Now, fast forward from the FBI's inception to where they are now, and know that we have thirty five thousand employees, and let's just let's be real, real kind and say half of them are committed communists who believe Donald Trump is a Nazi antichrist, and they view their role as stopping him and protecting
the FBI. What do you think they were doing the day after Donald Trump got elected. We have a mountain to climb. As I've said many times before, Cash Patel has a mountain to climb. And my friend Dan Bongino, I've been very honest about the fact that he is my friend and I trust him all the way. I haven't spoken to him. It's probably not allowed to talk to me anymore. But these people, you may think, well,
they're the director, they're they're the deputy director. That no, no, no, no, no no. You walk into an organization, I don't care if the label on your desk says director thirty five thousand people and it's a quote law enforcement agency that collects damaging information on people as just simply a matter of what it does. What did they walk into? So look, I don't know if we're going to get the results we need, but I'll tell you this, and you can hold me to this because I believe it. You got
four years. If at the end of this four years the FBI remains completely intact the way it is now, no FBI agents arrested, no significant number of people being fired, even the whistleblowers, Garrett, Steve, the others, if they're still flapping in the wind without a job, then I think we know what the truth is. And here is the truth. If at the end of this four years we don't see any of these reforms. The Federal Bureau of Investigation is more powerful than the presidency or the Office of
the Director or the Attorney General. And we are in major, major trouble as a country. Told you it was going to be sober. Transportation Department hires outside law firm to investigate the air Traffic Controller DEI practices. Why did these people in the Trump administration have to keep hiring outside people because the people inside are the enemy. We got a long way to go. This has been a podcast from wor
