Maryor Mike Kaufman 6 00:00:15.919 --> 00:00:18.120 joins us at five thirty six. This is now an 7 00:00:18.280 --> 00:00:22.960 enormous national story, and it's a focus point of the 8 00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:26.480 presidential race because the video, and I'm sure you've seen 9 00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:30.679 it now of these criminals, you know, with these weapons 10 00:00:30.760 --> 00:00:36.560 taking over this Aurora apartment complex and busting into this apartment, 11 00:00:36.560 --> 00:00:40.520 et cetera. This just makes very real for people the 12 00:00:40.560 --> 00:00:43.880 horror caused in America by Kamala Harris's failure. 13 00:00:43.560 --> 00:00:44.200 At the border. 14 00:00:44.560 --> 00:00:47.000 So it is a focal point now of the presidential race, 15 00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:49.320 which is why presumably you have poll us out there 16 00:00:49.399 --> 00:00:54.759 lying about it, saying essentially it's Danielle Jurinsky's imagination and 17 00:00:55.119 --> 00:00:57.560 you know, the flax media flax for the left out 18 00:00:57.560 --> 00:01:01.359 there trying to downplay it. It is a extraordinarily serious 19 00:01:01.479 --> 00:01:05.319 and it's capturing the attention of America for obvious, very 20 00:01:05.359 --> 00:01:08.680 good reasons. So Mark Kaufman with us at five point 21 00:01:08.719 --> 00:01:11.159 thirty six to talk about that, and please to remember 22 00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:14.560 it was a month ago on this show that I 23 00:01:14.719 --> 00:01:16.959 was talking to Mark Kaufman about the problems they were 24 00:01:16.959 --> 00:01:21.120 having in Aurora because of large numbers of folks coming 25 00:01:21.120 --> 00:01:24.680 in through the southern border from Venezuela. And then he 26 00:01:24.680 --> 00:01:28.640 he's stung me by making the comment that their entire 27 00:01:28.760 --> 00:01:32.079 blocks in Aurora that have been taken over and that 28 00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:35.319 the city's trying to reclaim street by street and block 29 00:01:35.400 --> 00:01:36.040 by block. 30 00:01:37.280 --> 00:01:41.280 In a the what you know is we have areas 31 00:01:41.280 --> 00:01:45.920 in our city, unfortunately, that have been overtaken and that 32 00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:49.799 we have to take back three by street, block by block. 33 00:01:50.519 --> 00:01:54.239 Imagine that in America. And again that's why it's becoming 34 00:01:54.239 --> 00:01:57.200 a big deal in the presidential race. Here's President Trump 35 00:01:57.239 --> 00:01:58.920 commenting on it today. 36 00:02:00.280 --> 00:02:00.560 Today. 37 00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:04.719 Did you see that, Well, Venezuelan gang members have taken 38 00:02:04.760 --> 00:02:08.520 over parts of the city, They've taken over apartment houses. 39 00:02:08.919 --> 00:02:12.879 Because these stupid people that we have leading our country 40 00:02:13.039 --> 00:02:17.639 are allowing these people, these criminals to come to come 41 00:02:17.680 --> 00:02:20.919 into our country, and we're going to get them the 42 00:02:20.960 --> 00:02:21.840 hell out of here. 43 00:02:22.479 --> 00:02:23.919 And this is just the beginning. 44 00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:25.599 Why do you see what happens? 45 00:02:26.120 --> 00:02:28.520 Why do you see what they're doing. Yeah, that the 46 00:02:29.000 --> 00:02:32.439 video and the taking over these apartment complexes the mayor 47 00:02:32.479 --> 00:02:34.680 will talk about, and then these poor people who are 48 00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:39.039 terrorized in there being Venezuelan immigrants here, and then the 49 00:02:39.080 --> 00:02:42.919 immigrants have to pay these criminals the money. It's it's just, 50 00:02:43.879 --> 00:02:48.039 it's so opposite of what America is in America is 51 00:02:48.080 --> 00:02:50.960 supposed to be. And you have many Americans across party 52 00:02:51.039 --> 00:02:54.360 lines who do not want to lose their country. They 53 00:02:54.560 --> 00:02:59.719 have plenty of Americans Democrats on affiliated's Republicans who are saying, no, 54 00:03:00.280 --> 00:03:04.639 people fought and died, my parents, my grandparents, they built 55 00:03:04.680 --> 00:03:08.400 this country, and we are not just going to turn 56 00:03:08.479 --> 00:03:12.759 this country over to people who decide to come in illegally. 57 00:03:12.960 --> 00:03:14.719 And you know, so it's a. 58 00:03:14.759 --> 00:03:17.719 Very powerful sentiment in America cross party lines. It is 59 00:03:17.759 --> 00:03:21.439 not anti immigrant, not at all. That's never been who 60 00:03:21.479 --> 00:03:25.759 we are. No good American could be anti immigrant. It's 61 00:03:25.919 --> 00:03:32.120 anti illegal immigrants. It's above all anti illegal immigrants who 62 00:03:32.159 --> 00:03:34.759 come here and then commit other crimes. And no matter 63 00:03:34.759 --> 00:03:36.520 what percentage it is, and I hapen to think it's 64 00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:39.879 relatively small percentage, it one is too many, and it 65 00:03:39.919 --> 00:03:42.719 happens to be large enough numbers to kill many in 66 00:03:42.800 --> 00:03:46.439 America and wreak havoc, and we just can't have it. 67 00:03:46.840 --> 00:03:49.879 That's why in a CBS poll in early summer, you 68 00:03:49.960 --> 00:03:54.639 had about two thirds who supported mass deportations. So at 69 00:03:54.639 --> 00:03:58.240 this video now surfacing in our Aurora, you can be 70 00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:00.960 sure that the Trump's going to stay focused on this. 71 00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:01.879 So MARYK. 72 00:04:01.919 --> 00:04:04.280 Kaufman with us at five point thirty six to talk 73 00:04:04.319 --> 00:04:07.479 about it, and as we touched briefly, I want to 74 00:04:07.479 --> 00:04:10.840 get back to texting calls. As we touched briefly on 75 00:04:11.000 --> 00:04:18.360 the the extraordinary disappointment last night. I mean, it's not surprised, right, 76 00:04:18.399 --> 00:04:19.879 it predicted it would come down the way it did. 77 00:04:19.879 --> 00:04:22.160 But Dana Bash is a talented journalist, and she made 78 00:04:22.160 --> 00:04:26.160 a conscious decision last night to forfeit her credentials as 79 00:04:26.160 --> 00:04:29.160 a journalist and act instead as a flack for the 80 00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:32.120 Harris campaign. And so she did what I predicted, and 81 00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:35.000 she asked some tough questions that were really meaningless because 82 00:04:35.040 --> 00:04:38.199 she never followed up when Harris lied or evaded. And 83 00:04:38.279 --> 00:04:44.879 so it really last night it deprived America. It deprived 84 00:04:44.920 --> 00:04:48.920 America of a full opportunity to see who Kamala Harris 85 00:04:49.000 --> 00:04:52.000 really is. And that was Dana Bash's mission was to 86 00:04:52.079 --> 00:04:56.399 deprive America of that opportunity because Dana Bash, almost the 87 00:04:56.560 --> 00:04:59.800 entire media wants Trump to lose, and if people can 88 00:05:00.920 --> 00:05:03.800 who Kamala Harris really is, then Trump is certain to win. 89 00:05:04.279 --> 00:05:07.240 And so last night was a real disservice to the 90 00:05:07.279 --> 00:05:09.759 American people. What was so interesting to me, and I 91 00:05:09.759 --> 00:05:11.800 won't play the sound again right now because we have 92 00:05:11.839 --> 00:05:14.319 other stuff to cover, is the way she did go 93 00:05:14.439 --> 00:05:17.759 after Walls, and then Walls, as you know, came out 94 00:05:17.800 --> 00:05:20.560 and he lied, he lied. She teed it up for him, 95 00:05:20.639 --> 00:05:22.519 just how all he had to do was admitt he misspoke. 96 00:05:22.560 --> 00:05:25.240 He wouldn't do that, He claimed it was bad grammar. Well, 97 00:05:25.279 --> 00:05:29.279 guess what the people, working people everywhere, working people in 98 00:05:29.279 --> 00:05:32.120 the Upper Midwest, I know in particular growing up in Chicago, 99 00:05:32.199 --> 00:05:35.879 Ryan and Michigan, value the truth. It's a core value. 100 00:05:35.920 --> 00:05:38.759 It's what people build their lives around. And when a 101 00:05:38.800 --> 00:05:42.639 guy like Walls, who pretends to be mister workingman and 102 00:05:42.680 --> 00:05:45.160 mister Midwest comes out and he lies to you like 103 00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:48.000 that and says, oh no, saying he carried a weapon 104 00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:49.879 of war in a war zone, that's when he was 105 00:05:49.920 --> 00:05:54.279 at war. That's poor grammar that just insults people's intelligence. 106 00:05:54.319 --> 00:05:55.720 And I'll tell you what, and you know this to 107 00:05:55.759 --> 00:05:59.959 be true. I'm sure that on average, if you take 108 00:06:00.079 --> 00:06:03.680 a big old group of working people and you take 109 00:06:03.720 --> 00:06:05.879 a big old group of rich people, the big old 110 00:06:05.920 --> 00:06:08.680 group of working people is going to be as smart 111 00:06:08.839 --> 00:06:11.519 or smarter, and then you're going to have a bunch 112 00:06:11.560 --> 00:06:14.920 of other explanations for why people are in different circumstances 113 00:06:14.959 --> 00:06:20.959 in life. And so when you then say to working people, 114 00:06:21.079 --> 00:06:23.720 oh no, that was just bad grammar, first of all, 115 00:06:24.199 --> 00:06:27.759 you're violating their core value of honesty. Second, you're insulting 116 00:06:27.800 --> 00:06:30.759 their intelligence. So what was interesting to me last night 117 00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:34.519 when Bash did go after Walls and stayed on him 118 00:06:34.759 --> 00:06:37.800 to a point, not enough, but to a point pointing 119 00:06:37.800 --> 00:06:40.600 out other lives of his, is that she's trying to 120 00:06:40.639 --> 00:06:42.959 run him out of the race. The Left has not 121 00:06:43.079 --> 00:06:46.800 given up on running Walls out of the race, and 122 00:06:47.000 --> 00:06:51.879 that concerns me because we need Walls as part of 123 00:06:51.879 --> 00:06:55.519 the ticket. We don't need Harris replacing Walls with Shapiro. Anyway, 124 00:06:56.800 --> 00:06:59.000 let me get back to some of these great text 125 00:06:59.120 --> 00:07:01.720 Texter Dan got disagree. Have you heard the ad produced 126 00:07:01.720 --> 00:07:05.560 by rfk's running mate it's hilarious, Mike and Henderson. I 127 00:07:05.680 --> 00:07:07.879 have seen and heard that ad. It is brilliant. If 128 00:07:07.879 --> 00:07:10.279 we don't err it today, well, Eric Monday, we are 129 00:07:10.319 --> 00:07:12.279 so busy today. But let me play that Trump ad 130 00:07:12.319 --> 00:07:14.759 again in case you weren't here when we played it earlier. 131 00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:17.720 It is by far the best ad produced yet by 132 00:07:17.759 --> 00:07:20.399 the Trump campaign, and they produced some good ones. And 133 00:07:21.120 --> 00:07:24.600 this spins off of Harris in the BackRub last night 134 00:07:25.079 --> 00:07:27.560 claiming that, oh no, my values have not changed. 135 00:07:27.839 --> 00:07:28.240 You know that. 136 00:07:28.360 --> 00:07:31.639 Yeah, all these other positions she claims have changed, and 137 00:07:31.639 --> 00:07:35.040 they really haven't. But she her cover story for that 138 00:07:35.120 --> 00:07:37.600 is all my values have not changed. And the Trump 139 00:07:37.600 --> 00:07:43.160 campaign brilliantly took advantage to that of that to say, yeah, 140 00:07:43.319 --> 00:07:46.040 so she's going to do all those awful things that 141 00:07:46.079 --> 00:07:48.040 she told you before she was going to do. 142 00:07:48.800 --> 00:07:52.160 My values have not changed. Here's red meat, specifically, Yes 143 00:07:52.240 --> 00:07:54.360 of Boston Marathon bomber they to vote. 144 00:07:54.399 --> 00:07:55.639 I think we should have that conversation. 145 00:07:55.720 --> 00:07:58.120 Abolish ice, Yes, would you ban off shore drilling? 146 00:07:58.360 --> 00:07:58.600 Yes? 147 00:07:58.680 --> 00:08:01.399 I'm in favorite banning frack. I am prepared to pass 148 00:08:01.399 --> 00:08:04.040 agreeing to deal, and I support a mandatory buyback program. 149 00:08:04.079 --> 00:08:07.519 We're not going to treat people who are undocumented borders, criminals. 150 00:08:07.639 --> 00:08:11.360 The idea that more police equals more safety, that's just wrong. 151 00:08:11.600 --> 00:08:13.600 Policing as we know, goes all the way back to 152 00:08:13.639 --> 00:08:15.480 slave patrols and that idea. 153 00:08:15.319 --> 00:08:16.879 Yes, you are absolutely right. 154 00:08:16.920 --> 00:08:18.720 Where do you stand on defund the police? 155 00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:20.319 We need to take a look at these budgets? 156 00:08:20.360 --> 00:08:22.680 Do you ban plastic straws? And I wish a seventy 157 00:08:22.800 --> 00:08:24.079 to eighty percent tax rate. 158 00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:25.360 I think that's fantastic. 159 00:08:25.600 --> 00:08:29.120 Chipping now to the Minnesota Freedom Fund. How dare we 160 00:08:29.160 --> 00:08:30.240 speak Merry Christmas? 161 00:08:30.600 --> 00:08:31.360 I am rad. 162 00:08:31.399 --> 00:08:33.720 I do believe that we need to get radical about 163 00:08:33.720 --> 00:08:34.960 what we are doing over a. 164 00:08:35.440 --> 00:08:38.879 Wow, So that's a sixty. That's going to be real expensive. 165 00:08:38.879 --> 00:08:40.919 But hopefully they can raise the money and they can 166 00:08:41.000 --> 00:08:43.919 run that on a loop in Swing States Ate five 167 00:08:43.960 --> 00:08:46.080 five four zero five eight two five five text d 168 00:08:46.159 --> 00:08:48.759 A N five seven seven thirty nine, Mayor Mike Kaufman 169 00:08:49.240 --> 00:08:51.360 at five point thirty six. And one of the questions 170 00:08:51.399 --> 00:08:54.200 we'll ask them are is, Hey, why aren't these apartment 171 00:08:54.279 --> 00:08:57.840 complexes that have been taken over by Venezuelan gangs been 172 00:08:57.960 --> 00:09:00.559 flooded with police? And don't blame that? Great men and 173 00:09:00.559 --> 00:09:03.240 women in blue and Aura for this. But why haven't 174 00:09:03.279 --> 00:09:06.759 they been flooded with police from day one? This cannot 175 00:09:06.759 --> 00:09:08.559 be allowed to exist. So good of the mayor to 176 00:09:08.559 --> 00:09:13.879 come in and he'll be here at five thirty six. Dan, 177 00:09:14.000 --> 00:09:16.080 please ask my Kaufman if being a sanctuary state has 178 00:09:16.080 --> 00:09:18.480 anything to do with the situation. I will certainly are 179 00:09:18.559 --> 00:09:21.120 these illegals being turned over to ICE? I will certainly 180 00:09:21.639 --> 00:09:24.879 ask the mayor that, Dan, what will happen when Trump wins? 181 00:09:24.919 --> 00:09:28.080 It was a mostly peaceful riot. That's a good question. 182 00:09:28.159 --> 00:09:30.360 Believe me. I am not in any way, shape or 183 00:09:30.399 --> 00:09:33.919 form declaring this race over. I'm just pointing out that, 184 00:09:34.799 --> 00:09:38.000 as I predicted, you know, Harris's peaked, and now things 185 00:09:38.080 --> 00:09:40.639 are starting to turn in Trump's favor, earlier than I 186 00:09:40.679 --> 00:09:42.840 thought they would, but starting to turn in Trump's favor 187 00:09:42.840 --> 00:09:46.080 to the point where Nate Silver, who does not come 188 00:09:46.120 --> 00:09:50.039 from the right on well it's not five thirty eighty, 189 00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:53.559 sold that to ABC, but his own separate Nate's Silver blog, 190 00:09:54.440 --> 00:09:58.440 has now moved Trump into a six point five lead. 191 00:09:58.480 --> 00:10:00.399 Now that doesn't mean Trump has a six zo point 192 00:10:00.440 --> 00:10:04.279 five lead in any particular polls, but what it means is, 193 00:10:04.320 --> 00:10:07.480 as Nate Silver does his analysis and part of it 194 00:10:07.480 --> 00:10:11.600 includes polls, and part includes other dynamics and historical trends, 195 00:10:11.639 --> 00:10:16.679 et cetera. He as of today says that there's about 196 00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:19.600 a six to seven point greater chance that Trump wins 197 00:10:19.639 --> 00:10:22.080 the presidency. Now, just a few days ago he had 198 00:10:22.080 --> 00:10:26.120 at about sixty forty in Harris's favor, So expect this 199 00:10:26.200 --> 00:10:28.519 to jump all over the place, whether that's Nate trying 200 00:10:28.519 --> 00:10:31.679 to get more attention for his blog, trying to manipulate 201 00:10:31.720 --> 00:10:35.120 things politically, or whether it's a straight up analysis. As 202 00:10:35.159 --> 00:10:38.080 of today, he has Trump more likely to win the 203 00:10:38.159 --> 00:10:40.840 race in the trend line right now for lots of reasons. 204 00:10:40.960 --> 00:10:43.240 Very good for Trump eight f five for zero five 205 00:10:43.279 --> 00:10:46.320 eight two five five in number. When we come back, 206 00:10:46.399 --> 00:10:49.600 leading into Mayor Kaufman joining us in what has become 207 00:10:49.639 --> 00:10:52.399 a big issue in the presidential race, which is the 208 00:10:52.480 --> 00:10:57.080 takeover of apartment complexes in Aurora by Venezuelan gangs. Here 209 00:10:57.120 --> 00:11:00.519 on the Dan Kapla Show, and. 210 00:11:00.440 --> 00:11:03.919 Now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast Your. 211 00:11:03.919 --> 00:11:10.000 Residence, Cindy Romero counselwoman Jorensky, who has been amazing. My 212 00:11:10.080 --> 00:11:13.679 first conversation with her, she said, she said, do you 213 00:11:13.759 --> 00:11:14.519 still live there? 214 00:11:14.639 --> 00:11:16.240 And I said yes, And she said, I'm going to 215 00:11:16.320 --> 00:11:18.919 get you out of there. Wow, I'm not going to 216 00:11:19.080 --> 00:11:19.840 make it my work. 217 00:11:20.360 --> 00:11:24.639 So you're singing her praises. In the meantime, the office 218 00:11:24.679 --> 00:11:28.000 of Governor Jared Paulus is saying she's making all of 219 00:11:28.000 --> 00:11:28.440 this up. 220 00:11:28.480 --> 00:11:30.000 Listen to what a spokesman said. 221 00:11:30.240 --> 00:11:33.960 According to police intelligence, this purported invasion, I guess of 222 00:11:34.000 --> 00:11:38.879 these apartment buildings is largely a feature of Danielle Jurinsky's imagination. 223 00:11:39.679 --> 00:11:40.840 What do you say to that. 224 00:11:42.519 --> 00:11:46.080 You can't fake video and poulis within the last five 225 00:11:46.120 --> 00:11:47.600 minutes on that property. 226 00:11:48.320 --> 00:11:51.679 Wow, here's what daniel min is. Here's what Danielle said 227 00:11:51.679 --> 00:11:52.519 about I'll listen to this. 228 00:11:53.840 --> 00:11:56.039 I absolutely did. 229 00:11:55.799 --> 00:11:57.720 Not make any of this up. 230 00:11:59.000 --> 00:12:04.559 I love that is how our governor has quickly rushed 231 00:12:04.600 --> 00:12:08.039 in to say that that's the actual problem here. But 232 00:12:08.080 --> 00:12:14.360 the actual problem here are his weak policies that have 233 00:12:14.600 --> 00:12:19.080 turned this state into a breeding ground for this gang activity. 234 00:12:19.840 --> 00:12:22.679 Sidney, why do you think the Governor's office has got 235 00:12:22.679 --> 00:12:26.480 its head stuck firmly in the sand over this issue. 236 00:12:27.200 --> 00:12:29.879 They don't want to admit that they're part of the problem. 237 00:12:30.320 --> 00:12:33.159 It's the administration who we count on to make the 238 00:12:33.240 --> 00:12:36.559 rules for us, to make the guidelines that we go by. 239 00:12:36.960 --> 00:12:39.000 I call nine to one one, No help comes for me. 240 00:12:40.000 --> 00:12:40.440 No help. 241 00:12:40.480 --> 00:12:46.639 There's no mess amounts of police that show up to 242 00:12:46.679 --> 00:12:48.080 make sure that we're defended. 243 00:12:48.519 --> 00:12:49.840 Nobody showed up to help me. 244 00:12:50.000 --> 00:12:54.600 I didn't have a bulletproof vest I didn't have five 245 00:12:55.120 --> 00:12:57.919 officers showing up with me. Whenever there was a problem, 246 00:12:58.279 --> 00:13:00.399 we were on our own and we were left to die. 247 00:13:00.960 --> 00:13:02.120 Wow, you should have no. 248 00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:05.799 Registration in this country. 249 00:13:06.000 --> 00:13:07.919 And we should point out that the scenes that you're 250 00:13:07.919 --> 00:13:10.360 seeing on the right hand side of the screen there, 251 00:13:10.480 --> 00:13:14.919 those were taken from Cindy's ring doorbell or video doorbell 252 00:13:15.320 --> 00:13:17.159 while she was inside her apartment. 253 00:13:17.200 --> 00:13:18.960 You can imagine what it was. 254 00:13:19.200 --> 00:13:22.120 Hey, bro, can you take us into CNN? They've got 255 00:13:22.120 --> 00:13:24.200 polus on it and they just threw up a headline. 256 00:13:24.519 --> 00:13:27.039 Is this something that you need to take more seriously? 257 00:13:29.120 --> 00:13:30.360 Oh, we take it very seriously. 258 00:13:30.399 --> 00:13:32.960 Weeks ago, I convened the City of Aurora with the 259 00:13:32.960 --> 00:13:36.279 state and federal government. Look, it is completely illegal in 260 00:13:36.360 --> 00:13:39.360 Colorado to take over and occupy a building and a 261 00:13:39.399 --> 00:13:41.559 lot of police departments on the front lines if they 262 00:13:41.559 --> 00:13:43.240 need our help. I've told the mayor I've told the 263 00:13:43.240 --> 00:13:46.360 police department, the state is ready to assist your police 264 00:13:46.399 --> 00:13:49.320 department if it's above and beyond your capabilities to do that. 265 00:13:49.720 --> 00:13:52.480 If the people alleging this have more evidence, please bring 266 00:13:52.519 --> 00:13:55.080 it forward, give it to Aurora Police Department. The State 267 00:13:55.080 --> 00:13:57.440 of Colorado takes these kinds of threats very seriously. 268 00:13:59.080 --> 00:14:02.480 Then, looking back on this statement about according to police intelligence, 269 00:14:02.519 --> 00:14:06.559 this purported invasion is largely a feature of a particular 270 00:14:06.639 --> 00:14:09.279 council woman's imagination. How are you reflecting on that? 271 00:14:11.159 --> 00:14:12.919 Oh, if there is a building that was taken over 272 00:14:12.960 --> 00:14:15.480 by gangs, the state would assist the Aurora Police Department 273 00:14:15.480 --> 00:14:18.039 in taking it back within moments. So all we await 274 00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:20.200 is a call from Aurora saying there's any building in 275 00:14:20.200 --> 00:14:22.320 the control of any gang and we are ready to 276 00:14:22.360 --> 00:14:24.440 help take it back. That call has not happened because 277 00:14:24.480 --> 00:14:27.279 Aurora Police does not currently believe or they haven't told us, 278 00:14:27.480 --> 00:14:29.279 that there's any buildings in control of gangs. 279 00:14:29.279 --> 00:14:31.720 Can we still on this show? 280 00:14:31.799 --> 00:14:33.320 He's about to see it in five. 281 00:14:33.120 --> 00:14:36.559 Minutes facilit illegally in all fifty states, and Colorado is 282 00:14:36.559 --> 00:14:39.120 a zero tolerance policy. And I hope that the city 283 00:14:39.120 --> 00:14:42.320 of Aurora, which is controlled by Republicans, Republican mayor Republican 284 00:14:42.320 --> 00:14:44.919 city council. I hope they also have a zero tolerance 285 00:14:45.039 --> 00:14:47.519 policy to this kind of law breaking if it's occurring 286 00:14:47.679 --> 00:14:48.600 within their borders. 287 00:14:49.120 --> 00:14:51.120 I do want to make a turn. This is a 288 00:14:51.200 --> 00:14:53.919 very different topic, I think one. 289 00:14:53.759 --> 00:14:56.799 That can bail out of it. It's just so polish. 290 00:14:56.840 --> 00:14:57.080 Wow. 291 00:14:57.919 --> 00:15:00.240 And the fact that this guy's governor of Colorado, because 292 00:15:00.240 --> 00:15:02.840 think about Colorado, whether somebody is a Democrat or Republican 293 00:15:02.960 --> 00:15:05.720 or whatever, you know, the ethic of Colorado. The West 294 00:15:05.799 --> 00:15:08.200 right is supposed to be a stand up You tell 295 00:15:08.240 --> 00:15:10.919 the truth, you stand by what you say. If you're wrong, 296 00:15:11.000 --> 00:15:14.879 you then admit it. The guy is so weasily, so weasily. 297 00:15:15.360 --> 00:15:17.799 I mean, he's the guy who came out and said, no, 298 00:15:17.919 --> 00:15:21.399 this is a fig a figment of Danielle Chirinsky's imagination. 299 00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:24.600 Oh wait a second. Mark Kaufman is on the record. 300 00:15:24.639 --> 00:15:25.799 He said it on the show, and he's going to 301 00:15:25.840 --> 00:15:28.000 say it on the show again in about nine minutes. 302 00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:31.399 That no, we have apartment complexes that have been taken 303 00:15:31.440 --> 00:15:35.200 over by Venezuelan gangs. Police knows it's true, but he 304 00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:39.000 lies about it because it's happened in his state, right, 305 00:15:39.279 --> 00:15:42.120 and credit to see an n credit to see an 306 00:15:42.200 --> 00:15:46.759 end for confronting him on it. And then of course 307 00:15:46.799 --> 00:15:47.600 he lies again. 308 00:15:47.720 --> 00:15:50.399 He's the worst. He just says, well, if there's a problem, 309 00:15:50.480 --> 00:15:52.159 they haven't called us, they haven't told us about it, 310 00:15:52.200 --> 00:15:53.320 so there must not be a problem. 311 00:15:53.399 --> 00:15:56.240 Yeah. But credit credit to CNN for calling him out 312 00:15:56.279 --> 00:15:58.440 on hey saying it's a figment of the imagination. 313 00:15:58.600 --> 00:16:00.399 If do you stand by that? 314 00:16:00.519 --> 00:16:03.519 And then how police weaseled around that? 315 00:16:03.759 --> 00:16:05.240 Right? Yeah? 316 00:16:05.600 --> 00:16:08.360 Yeah, So Mary Kaufman joins us at five thirty six, 317 00:16:08.440 --> 00:16:10.480 and he will talk about what he talked about on 318 00:16:10.480 --> 00:16:13.039 my show back on July thirty first. 319 00:16:16.200 --> 00:16:18.960 But what you know is we have areas in our city, 320 00:16:19.000 --> 00:16:23.679 unfortunately that have been overtaken and that we have to 321 00:16:23.720 --> 00:16:26.960 take back three by street, block by block. 322 00:16:27.279 --> 00:16:31.000 Yeah, so Polus knows it's real, he knows it's happening, 323 00:16:31.679 --> 00:16:34.879 and he goes out and he denigrates this councilwoman that 324 00:16:34.919 --> 00:16:38.120 way by essentially telling people she's lying. Oh, it's a 325 00:16:38.120 --> 00:16:40.600 figment of her imagination. And then credit to CNN for 326 00:16:40.679 --> 00:16:42.799 confronting him. Now they had him on, you know, to 327 00:16:42.840 --> 00:16:44.960 do his flag thing for Harris and everything else, but 328 00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:47.399 they brought it up and confronted him on it good 329 00:16:47.399 --> 00:16:49.919 for CNN eight y five or zero five eight two 330 00:16:50.000 --> 00:16:53.080 five five the number bad for CNN. What happened last night? 331 00:16:53.120 --> 00:16:55.960 That was a grave disservice to the American people when 332 00:16:56.080 --> 00:16:59.039 when they went out and they protected Harris, and they 333 00:16:59.080 --> 00:17:01.799 had an opportunity to show the people who she really is, 334 00:17:01.960 --> 00:17:04.720 what she really stands for, how she can handle tough questions, 335 00:17:05.000 --> 00:17:07.319 and they decided to serve as a flack for her. 336 00:17:07.920 --> 00:17:10.400 And again it's a disservice to the American people. Let 337 00:17:10.480 --> 00:17:13.319 him see who she really is and make an informed decision. 338 00:17:13.359 --> 00:17:16.240 But what they're admitting is she's not qualified, she's not 339 00:17:16.319 --> 00:17:18.319 capable of doing the job. And that's why they had 340 00:17:18.400 --> 00:17:21.079 to protect her by first of all, not asking the 341 00:17:21.079 --> 00:17:25.039 follow up questions when she evaded or lied. But second Ryan, 342 00:17:25.640 --> 00:17:28.880 where's the rest of the interview? The interview that aired 343 00:17:28.960 --> 00:17:31.039 was twenty eight minutes, They sat down for an hour. 344 00:17:31.440 --> 00:17:35.880 Where's the rest of the interview? Where's the transcript? So 345 00:17:36.160 --> 00:17:38.559 just just a grave dis service last night. Coming up 346 00:17:38.599 --> 00:17:41.920 next Mayor Mike Kaufman of Aurora, and what he's going 347 00:17:42.000 --> 00:17:45.319 to tell you is, no, it is true that apartment 348 00:17:45.359 --> 00:17:48.640 complexes have been taken over by Venezuelan gangs, even though 349 00:17:48.680 --> 00:17:52.640 Jared Pola says it's a figment of Councilwoman Jurinsky's imagination. 350 00:17:53.400 --> 00:17:56.000 And then we'll talk to Mary Kaufman about, Okay, you 351 00:17:56.039 --> 00:17:59.680 know what can be done? This obviously can't be tolerated, 352 00:18:00.319 --> 00:18:02.640 What can be done, Why hasn't it been done already? 353 00:18:02.880 --> 00:18:06.000 And we'll get very concrete about what is the fix there, 354 00:18:06.000 --> 00:18:09.079 because this isn't America. It cannot be America. It cannot 355 00:18:09.119 --> 00:18:12.319 be the new normal in America. That we know for sure, 356 00:18:12.359 --> 00:18:14.599 across party lines we know, which is why it's becoming 357 00:18:14.640 --> 00:18:17.119 a flashpoint in the presidential race because this video is 358 00:18:17.200 --> 00:18:20.079 national now. People don't want that as the future of America. 359 00:18:20.119 --> 00:18:22.400 That's why Jared Polus is lying and saying that's really 360 00:18:22.440 --> 00:18:25.400 not happening, because it knows it hurts Democrats so much 361 00:18:25.480 --> 00:18:29.039 because it's democrats, it's Kamala Harris, Democrats like Kim who 362 00:18:29.119 --> 00:18:32.160 want that border open. Mark Kaufman next on The Dan 363 00:18:32.279 --> 00:18:33.000 Kaplis Show. 364 00:18:37.920 --> 00:18:40.279 You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast. 365 00:18:43.359 --> 00:18:45.880 What you know is we have areas in our city, 366 00:18:45.960 --> 00:18:50.640 unfortunately that have been overtaken and that we have to 367 00:18:50.680 --> 00:18:53.000 take back street by street. 368 00:18:53.039 --> 00:18:56.400 Block by block privileged to have or is Mayor Mike 369 00:18:56.480 --> 00:19:00.279 Kaufman in studio with us right now? This is big 370 00:19:00.359 --> 00:19:03.160 national story, as you know, mister Maren. In fact, President 371 00:19:03.160 --> 00:19:07.160 Trump addressed it today amazingly as we were waiting for 372 00:19:07.240 --> 00:19:07.759 you to come in. 373 00:19:07.799 --> 00:19:08.519 We're on live. 374 00:19:08.519 --> 00:19:12.160 In our last segment, Governor Polis shows up on CNN 375 00:19:12.200 --> 00:19:15.799 and CNN starts, to their credit, they start grilling him 376 00:19:15.839 --> 00:19:19.319 on way a second. Governor, you say that this story 377 00:19:19.359 --> 00:19:22.839 that Venezuela and gangs are taking over apartment complexes in 378 00:19:22.920 --> 00:19:26.799 Aurora is a figment of a councilwoman's imagination. Do you 379 00:19:26.880 --> 00:19:30.480 stand by that, Governor? And then he weaseled around that. 380 00:19:30.720 --> 00:19:35.359 But let's start our time together today with is this 381 00:19:35.440 --> 00:19:39.559 a figment of Danielle Jerinsky's imagination or is it really happening? 382 00:19:39.640 --> 00:19:43.880 Well, that's not a fact my imagination. So that. 383 00:19:45.640 --> 00:19:51.400 There are several buildings that are problematic that where there 384 00:19:51.440 --> 00:19:57.880 is a concentration of Veezuelan migrants, and I think you know, 385 00:19:57.920 --> 00:20:01.480 when you have a concentration of venezuel and migrants, sometimes 386 00:20:01.480 --> 00:20:05.200 that criminal element follows, and I think that's what happened here. 387 00:20:05.880 --> 00:20:10.039 So the interesting thing is the City of Aurora and 388 00:20:10.119 --> 00:20:14.119 council supported me. I did everything we could to stay 389 00:20:14.119 --> 00:20:19.480 out of this migrant crisis. We said at the beginning 390 00:20:20.799 --> 00:20:26.680 that we would spend no tax dollars unlike Denver, and 391 00:20:27.200 --> 00:20:30.359 went step further and said we would not be a 392 00:20:30.440 --> 00:20:36.279 conduit to federal or state resources coming down to provide assistance, 393 00:20:36.680 --> 00:20:40.200 because I just felt that at that time that you 394 00:20:40.240 --> 00:20:43.279 know that there would be lots of legacy type costs, 395 00:20:43.319 --> 00:20:46.200 and you know we would never be compensated for it. 396 00:20:46.240 --> 00:20:49.279 And I disagreed with federal policy at the border, and 397 00:20:49.640 --> 00:20:50.200 I think. 398 00:20:50.039 --> 00:20:55.200 That that accepting them would acquiesce to what's going on 399 00:20:55.200 --> 00:20:58.839 in the border. And so what happened was you had 400 00:20:59.200 --> 00:21:04.240 this mass, a wave of migrants coming up from Venezuela, 401 00:21:05.119 --> 00:21:07.319
