Speaker 2: We're winning for truth justice in the American way. We
Speaker 2: the collective.
Speaker 1: We America winning right now. Three all three seven one
Speaker 1: three A two five five the number d A N
Speaker 1: five seven seven three nine. That doesn't mean everybody in
Speaker 1: America is happy with America winning right now, but the
Speaker 1: fact is we are winning an important win today at
Speaker 1: the US Supreme Court.
Speaker 2: I want to dive into that.
Speaker 1: You're going to get detail you're not going to get
Speaker 1: anywhere else on a US Supreme Court decision today that
Speaker 1: has far far reaching positive implications. And it's of course
Speaker 1: on the US Supreme Court addressing whether Tennessee's laws which say,
Speaker 1: wait a second, hey.
Speaker 2: Well you're still a minor.
Speaker 1: No, we're not going to let them be cutting stuff
Speaker 1: off you and I'm pouring all these drugs into you
Speaker 1: to do stuff to you that can never be reversed.
Speaker 1: We're not going to do that here. And the US
Speaker 1: Supreme Court upholding that, but why they upheld that Tennessee
Speaker 1: law and some of the things the Court said in
Speaker 1: the process of upholding the Tennessee law a really important
Speaker 1: long term so want to get to that will deep
Speaker 1: dive it and winning around the world. I mean, listen,
Speaker 1: the credit goes right now obviously to Israel for being
Speaker 1: on the brink of hopefully wiping out Around's nuclear weapons program,
Speaker 1: but that of enormous value to the United States of America.
Speaker 1: Obviously our great alli Israel, who we care deeply about,
Speaker 1: but of enormous, enormous protective value to the United States.
Speaker 1: In fact, interesting poll today, Fox News poll, and that
Speaker 1: poll does not skew conservative, but that poll showing what
Speaker 1: percentage would you guess, Ryan, unless you've seen the poll,
Speaker 1: then don't you? I won't what percentage of Americans believe
Speaker 1: that Iran is a threat to our national security Iran's
Speaker 1: nuclear program.
Speaker 3: I don't know that number, So I'll guess.
Speaker 2: I'll say six.
Speaker 1: Pretty durned closest Prime would say, pretty derned closest Prime
Speaker 1: would say, And that is in fact seventy three.
Speaker 4: Percent, oh even higher, seventy three percent, three quarters of
Speaker 4: Americans basic.
Speaker 1: And then in terms of US military involvement in the
Speaker 1: nuclear program forty nine I think versus forty three in
Speaker 1: favor of it. That sort of thing. But listen that
Speaker 1: the bottom line is right now, we're going to play
Speaker 1: some sound from some back and forth, because anytime you're
Speaker 1: talking about America's finest gal men and women in the
Speaker 1: military going into harms way that there should be robust
Speaker 1: discussion from both sides of the issue. We all know
Speaker 1: who gets to decide it.
Speaker 2: But give me a break.
Speaker 1: I mean, the Iranian nuclear program has been a nemesis
Speaker 1: to the world for decades as they've relentlessly tried to
Speaker 1: get nukes and we all know how they would likely
Speaker 1: use them, and then Israel acts to limit it, and
Speaker 1: then there's some espionage and this and that to limit it.
Speaker 1: But it's been a relentless effort by Iran and it's
Speaker 1: so threatening to the United States, Israel, and the world.
Speaker 1: For these nutty, you know, radical Islamist diatolas to have nukes,
Speaker 1: it's a no brainer. So when America, let's just talk
Speaker 1: about America's interest. When America is on the verge of
Speaker 1: being able to wipe out the Iranian nuclear weapons program,
Speaker 1: it's just something that has to be done, if it
Speaker 1: can be done without having to go boots on the ground,
Speaker 1: if it can be done without some full scale, prolonged
Speaker 1: military involvement. No, let's hope and pray that Israel can
Speaker 1: finish the job itself, or the people of Iran topple
Speaker 1: the regime. But just the safety of your children, you,
Speaker 1: your wife, your husband, hopefully not both.
Speaker 2: All of that.
Speaker 1: I mean, when you're this close, you've got to finish it.
Speaker 4: Can I just eviscerate the premise that Iran, under the
Speaker 4: leadership of fascistic Mullahs and an iatola fundamentalist Muslims that
Speaker 4: they are, had any interest in quote unquote going green
Speaker 4: with a nuclear program simply for the sake of nuclear energy.
Speaker 3: And I say it for this purpose.
Speaker 4: Saudi Arabia Iran likely the two most oil rich nations
Speaker 4: on the planet. Iran as the epicenter of OPAK for
Speaker 4: all these years. Why would they give up on oil
Speaker 4: right beneath their feet in the pursuit of nuclear power?
Speaker 3: What would be the motivation for them to do that?
Speaker 2: I don't think anybody denies it, do they?
Speaker 5: Right?
Speaker 4: I think that the left would have you believing you
Speaker 4: had me cut some audio but you have a nuclear deal,
Speaker 4: they have nuclear problem.
Speaker 1: They don't believe that stuff they say, probably right, I mean, dear,
Speaker 1: I'll play that, But I don't think they.
Speaker 2: Believe that stuff they say.
Speaker 1: I think they say it because they're the opposition and
Speaker 1: they hate Trump and they've got to rally their forces. No,
Speaker 1: I don't think anythinking person would believe this stuff.
Speaker 6: Well, I mean, I think, first and foremost Michael was
Speaker 6: right on the point that we have to support our
Speaker 6: ally Israel, and there is a way to do that strati.
Speaker 6: I think that when you're talking about Iran getting closer
Speaker 6: to a nuclear weapon, that should terrify us all. But
Speaker 6: the fact is we had an agreement in place in
Speaker 6: twenty fifteen, and Iran was in compliance with that agreement
Speaker 6: and they were further away from nuclear capabilities than they
Speaker 6: are today.
Speaker 2: BB named Wait a second, that's insane.
Speaker 1: Under the agreement, Iran was getting a nuclear weapon, right,
Speaker 1: So Obama gives them how.
Speaker 2: Much in cash?
Speaker 1: Like cash? Money wasn't at one point nine billion or
Speaker 1: something cash?
Speaker 2: And then a deal where Iran gets a nuke.
Speaker 1: So what your your your gift to Israel and the
Speaker 1: world is Okay, You've got another seven years of life
Speaker 1: before every breath you take is at the whim of
Speaker 1: these radical Islamis diatolas with a nuke.
Speaker 2: Give me a break.
Speaker 1: So yeah, yeah, the lack of intellectual honesty, they're not
Speaker 1: a surprise. Three h three someone three eight two five
Speaker 1: five takes dam five seven seven three nine. But before
Speaker 1: we get out of this segment, God to at least
Speaker 1: give you a taste of the importance of this tremendous
Speaker 1: US Supreme Court decision today, sixty three decision. And they
Speaker 1: so called quote conservative justices, though when you look at
Speaker 1: these great US Supreme Court opinions, they get it right right,
Speaker 1: that are interpreting the Constitution and the law correctly. They're
Speaker 1: not being driven by Republican party ideology or anything like that.
Speaker 1: They're being driven when they say quote conservative probably originalists
Speaker 1: to be best. They're just driven by an approach to
Speaker 1: deciding these cases that is based on the actual Constitution
Speaker 1: and the language in the Constitution and the intent of
Speaker 1: the people who wrote it. And so anyway, don't want
Speaker 1: to diggress there, but the point being this important six'
Speaker 1: to three decision that, says, Yes state Of, tennessee you
Speaker 1: know you want to have these laws you want to
Speaker 1: have these laws here that limit the kind of of
Speaker 1: stuff that can be done to, kids stuff that can
Speaker 1: never be.
Speaker 2: Reversed you want to be.
Speaker 1: Able to, limit, say doctors from, prescribing, administering or dispensing
Speaker 1: puberty blockers or hormones to any minor for the purpose
Speaker 1: of Enabling i'm quoting from the opinion the miner to
Speaker 1: identify with or live as a purported identity inconsistent with
Speaker 1: the miner's biological. Sex and then it goes on to
Speaker 1: other kinds of. Procedures, Yeah, states you want to protect,
Speaker 1: kids that, way you can do. It that's what The
Speaker 1: Supreme court said, today and it's enormously. Important now the
Speaker 1: why also matters a, lot, Right what is the use
Speaker 1: of The Supreme court saying here is the reason that
Speaker 1: states can go ahead and do this as long as
Speaker 1: there's a quote rational. Basis i'll get into that after the,
Speaker 1: break but it's very encouraging on multiple. Levels but WHAT
Speaker 1: i want to drill down most with AND i think
Speaker 1: you'll enjoy the, most Is Justice barrett wrote this absolutely
Speaker 1: master class brilliant concurrence. Here and as you, know the
Speaker 1: way The Supreme court works is okay of those six
Speaker 1: who voted.
Speaker 2: To up hold The tennessee.
Speaker 1: Law you, know you can have justices who are part
Speaker 1: of the, six but then they split off and write
Speaker 1: their own. Opinions And Justice barrett wrote, this you, know
Speaker 1: instant classic opinion on an issue The court did not address,
Speaker 1: here which is whether transgender is entitled to special class,
Speaker 1: status to special, protection to, say sex based. Protection and
Speaker 1: because if a court, determines if The Supreme court was
Speaker 1: to determine that transgender status is entitled to the same
Speaker 1: protection against discrimination as sex as male, female well at
Speaker 1: that point and then there are very very few laws
Speaker 1: that could ever be passed that could negatively impact anybody
Speaker 1: transgender that would be. Upheld and so very very important
Speaker 1: concurrence From Justice barrett where she lays out AND i
Speaker 1: think it is one hundred, percent rock, solid, irrefutable you
Speaker 1: know why transgender is not entitled is not entitled to
Speaker 1: suspect class. Status SO i want to get into the.
Speaker 1: DETAILS i know it's tough when you're, driving you, know
Speaker 1: to work through you, know some legal type. Stuff but
Speaker 1: she wrote this opinion so. Beautifully it's almost as if
Speaker 1: she wrote it for law students and other students in the.
Speaker 1: Future it's so beautifully written THAT i just want to
Speaker 1: read it to you when we come back as, well
Speaker 1: because she nails, it and you'll walk away from that
Speaker 1: no matter where you happen to be on your preference
Speaker 1: on transgender. Policy AND i agree with that The Supreme
Speaker 1: court did. Strongly you're going to walk away saying she is.
Speaker 1: Right THE Us constitution does not provide for any special
Speaker 1: class status for folks who identify as. Transgender you're on
Speaker 1: The Dan Capla show.
Speaker 3: And now back to The Dan Kaplas show. Podcast, Wow
Speaker 3: i've never heard that one. Before thank, You.
Speaker 1: Ryan, hey lot's going on, today this tremendous opinion from
Speaker 1: THE Us Supreme court upholding Tennis ce's law protecting minors
Speaker 1: from these transgender. Procedures AND i do want to get
Speaker 1: into the majority opinions analysis here because that's interesting in
Speaker 1: and of, Itself but, again the true master class is the,
Speaker 1: concurrence obviously meaning agreeing with the majority opinion That Justice
Speaker 1: barrett wrote and Then Justice thomas.
Speaker 2: Joined but she just nailed this.
Speaker 1: Thing SO i want to give you a little bit
Speaker 1: of a taste before we then go back to the
Speaker 1: phone lines and do some other things and my friend
Speaker 1: and law, partner our managing partner of our, Firm, kellner
Speaker 1: who most recently was the ELECTED da in A, repo
Speaker 1: And Douglas lincoln And elbert is going to join us
Speaker 1: at four thirty five talk about an important new report
Speaker 1: from The Common Sense, institute talking about the latest on
Speaker 1: fentanyl In. Colorado but let me just Reach i'm going
Speaker 1: to read you some verbatim From Justice barrett's concurrence because
Speaker 1: the court concludes That Tennessee Senate bill one does not
Speaker 1: classify on the basis of transgender. Status it does not
Speaker 1: resolve whether transgender status constitutes a suspect CLASS i write
Speaker 1: separately to explain, why in my view it does.
Speaker 2: Not and then.
Speaker 1: Yeah she goes on to, say as a practical, necessity
Speaker 1: most legislation classifies for one purpose or, another and then
Speaker 1: she cites The colorado Case roamer. V. Evans laws distribute
Speaker 1: benefits that advantage particular, groups like in state tuition for,
Speaker 1: residents draw lines that might seem arbitrary priends like income
Speaker 1: thresholds for mean tested, benefits and set rules for specific
Speaker 1: categories of people priends like a particular profession or age.
Speaker 1: Group such classifications do not usually render a law. Unconstitutional,
Speaker 1: instead as a general, matter laws are presumed to be constitutionally,
Speaker 1: valid and a legislative classification will be upheld quote so
Speaker 1: long as it bears a rational relation to some legitimate.
Speaker 1: End there are only a few exceptions to this. Rule
Speaker 1: classifications based on, sex, race and. Alienage racial and ethnic
Speaker 1: classifications receive strict. Scrutiny to survive a constitutional, challenge they
Speaker 1: must be quote narrowly tailored to serve a compelling government,
Speaker 1: interest and laws distinguishing between men and women receive intermediate.
Speaker 1: Scrutinary to survive a constant titutional, challenge they must be
Speaker 1: quote substantially related to achieving an important governmental. Objective so
Speaker 1: let me stop here for a. Second this is such
Speaker 1: a key, point right because if the court was to
Speaker 1: decide that transgender rights were entitled.
Speaker 2: To this.
Speaker 1: Sex based type of heightened, scrutiny then almost no laws
Speaker 1: that ever disadvantage transgender people based upon their transgender status
Speaker 1: could could ever withstand judicial scrutiny because of that elevated.
Speaker 1: Status but if transgender is not given that kind of
Speaker 1: protected class, status then all the law has to be is,
Speaker 1: rational have some rational purpose to. It so that's why
Speaker 1: it's so. Critical disparat gets into a really important, point she,
Speaker 1: says and she's, right beyond these. Categories beyond these, categories
Speaker 1: the set has remained virtually. Closed, indeed this court has
Speaker 1: not recognized any new constitutionally protected classes in over four,
Speaker 1: decades and has repeatedly declined.
Speaker 2: To do so.
Speaker 1: So in urging us to recognize transgender status as a suspect,
Speaker 1: classifications that the plane offs face on high.
Speaker 2: Bar this is so.
Speaker 1: CRITICAL i, mean think about, it and then you'll see
Speaker 1: in a. Second she goes on to give some. Examples
Speaker 1: but wait a, second all of a, sudden we're going
Speaker 1: to say transgender status is a suspect class right up
Speaker 1: there with race and.
Speaker 2: Sex, Really and then she gets.
Speaker 1: Into some of the analysis we'll dive into as we
Speaker 1: take some calls and things like. That but when, you
Speaker 1: and she lays us out, beautifully when you then try to,
Speaker 1: determine wait a, second are we going to add a
Speaker 1: new group after forty years to this suspect class status
Speaker 1: that that race and sex is. In, well we got
Speaker 1: to look at some, stuff and she, says we consider
Speaker 1: whether members of the group in, question quote exhibit, obvious
Speaker 1: immutable or distinguishing characteristics that define them as a discrete,
Speaker 1: group and whether that group is a historical, matter has
Speaker 1: been subjected to, discrimination and whether the group is a
Speaker 1: minority or politically. Powerless and then she goes on to,
Speaker 1: saying this is so, interesting, right we have held that
Speaker 1: the mentally, disabled the, elderly and the poor are not suspect.
Speaker 1: Classes so the same court that is held that the
Speaker 1: mentally disabled are not a suspect class is now supposed
Speaker 1: to hold the transgender. Is and then she gets into
Speaker 1: breaking down so logically and factually why transgender just doesn't
Speaker 1: qualify under the law for suspect class. Status so it
Speaker 1: all comes back to the same bottom. Line, listen if
Speaker 1: transgender status doesn't get the same protected class status as
Speaker 1: race and, sex then all the law has to be
Speaker 1: to be upheld is. Rational and lord knows That tennessee
Speaker 1: law that says you're not going to butcher these kids
Speaker 1: while they're kids with irreversible stuff is more than. Rational
Speaker 1: three all, three, someone, three, eight two five. Five then
Speaker 1: NUMBER i got a bunch of, text bunch of. Calls
Speaker 1: obviously we're talking about the latest In iran as. Well
Speaker 1: let's go up to beautiful For, Collins. Colorado we'll start With.
Speaker 1: Bill you're on The DAN kapli show how you Doing?
Speaker 7: Bill very?
Speaker 1: Good.
Speaker 8: DAN i wanted to mention to you that the problems
Speaker 8: In iran have a direct connection with coloraderm And i'll
Speaker 8: tell you. How in nineteen, fifty rather in nineteen seventy,
Speaker 8: EIGHT i attended THE nato school in Ober, Amigau, germany
Speaker 8: and the guest speaker there Was General ROBERT. E. HEISER
Speaker 8: i talked with him for a while AND i Asked
Speaker 8: General heiser what was he. Doing he, said, well he
Speaker 8: was a deputy commander FOR. Nato and he, said BUT
Speaker 8: i did have an interesting. Experience. RECENTLY i was called
Speaker 8: to The White house by The president AND i was
Speaker 8: told THAT i should go directly To tehran and tell
Speaker 8: The shaw that THE us government was no longer backing
Speaker 8: his plate and that he should abdicate and leave the.
Speaker 8: Country and that was the key that started. Everything and
Speaker 8: WHEN i Asked General, HYSER i, said well where are you?
Speaker 8: From and he said a small town you never. RECOGNIZE
Speaker 8: i said? Where he said In. COLORADO i, said, Well
Speaker 8: i've lived there are a number of. Years where is
Speaker 8: it he, SAID i? LIVED i was born and raised In, Paonia,
Speaker 8: colorado and that he played football in high school with
Speaker 8: all of them mcgral, boys who ultimately went to C
Speaker 8: issue And thom McGraw of course Became All american and three.
Speaker 8: Sports but the key was The heiser was the courier
Speaker 8: From Jimmy carter to tell The shaw to leave and
Speaker 8: everything went down.
Speaker 2: The Old oh it sure.
Speaker 1: Did what a great, Story, Bill, hey sure appreciate. That
Speaker 1: and think of those Poor iranian, people the vast majority
Speaker 1: innocent captives of this, regime and how their lives, were
Speaker 1: how they were tossed into the dungeon in seventy.
Speaker 3: Nine you're listening to The Dan Kaplis show. Podcast another
Speaker 3: beautiful summer. Day glad you're.
Speaker 1: Here so much going on in the, world including this
Speaker 1: really BRILLIANT Us Supreme court decision today Upholding tennessees law
Speaker 1: that says you're not going to butcher our kids with
Speaker 1: this transgender. Stuff SO i give you a deep dive
Speaker 1: on the concurrence of Justice barrett beautifully written on why
Speaker 1: transgender does not it's not under.
Speaker 2: The law entitled to protecting class. Status we'll get back to.
Speaker 1: That, hey my good, friend my good, friend and law,
Speaker 1: partner in fact managing partner of our, Firm John kellner until,
Speaker 1: recently obviously the ELECTED da and OF A Rappo, Douglas
Speaker 1: albert And lincoln is now working with The Common Sense
Speaker 1: institute as, well and they have a really intriguing report
Speaker 1: out today on the state of fentanol In.
Speaker 2: Colorado, john how you.
Speaker 7: Doing i'm, Good, DAN i appreciate.
Speaker 1: It you have me on, WELL i shouldn't have even asked,
Speaker 1: that Because i've been with you all. DAY i know
Speaker 1: HOW i know unless it's. Changed did it change in
Speaker 1: the ten minutes it took me.
Speaker 9: To drive over, HERE i don't. Think so they're working
Speaker 9: on the cases over.
Speaker 2: Here, good, good.
Speaker 1: Good so, yeah, HEY i Obviously i've seen most of
Speaker 1: this report on, fentanyl but bring folks up to speed
Speaker 1: if you.
Speaker 2: Would.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 9: Yeah, so as one of my side, PROJECTS i have
Speaker 9: the pleasure of being A Criminal Justice fellow with The
Speaker 9: Common Sense, institute and obviously, that you, know brings back
Speaker 9: a lot of my experience from being a district, attorney
Speaker 9: and So i've been deeply involved with The Common Sense
Speaker 9: institute in, evaluating you, know what are the effects right
Speaker 9: now of some of the changes in the law that
Speaker 9: the state has, passed and how is it affecting fentanyl
Speaker 9: overdose deaths in our, state which you KNOW csi has
Speaker 9: been on the forefront of really evaluating what is the
Speaker 9: cost to a consumer to society in the state Of
Speaker 9: colorado for some of the policy decisions that are made
Speaker 9: under The Gold dome at The. Capitol and, so you,
Speaker 9: know one of the things that we were looking at
Speaker 9: is after the twenty twenty two law change to clamp
Speaker 9: down not entirely but to some extent on possession of
Speaker 9: fentanyl and then fentanyl drug. Dealers have we seen a
Speaker 9: Decrease AND i just want to bring your listeners back
Speaker 9: to twenty twenty, one twenty twenty two and think back
Speaker 9: to that, time because it was hard for anybody to
Speaker 9: open up let's, say you, know a media app newspaper
Speaker 9: and not see a headline about a tragic overdose, death
Speaker 9: a poisoning associated with.
Speaker 7: Fentanyl and so many times that was you.
Speaker 9: Know, juveniles people who didn't know what they were ingesting
Speaker 9: because something was laced with sentyl and it's an incredibly,
Speaker 9: dangerous deadly. Drug so they tried to reverse some of
Speaker 9: the decriminalization that it happened in the twenty twenty. Timeframe
Speaker 9: with This Fentanyl Accountability bill in twenty twenty two that
Speaker 9: made it a low level felony to possess one gram of.
Speaker 9: Fentanyl and your listeners might think one gram that doesn't
Speaker 9: sound like, much but just two milligrams of this, stuff
Speaker 9: right is enough to cause a.
Speaker 7: Death so good.
Speaker 9: Stuff on the horizon i'd say for the state Of
Speaker 9: colorado is that since the passage of this, law and
Speaker 9: since there's been an extreme tightening of border security out
Speaker 9: of the southwestern, border we are seeing a decline in
Speaker 9: fentel overdose deaths for the first time in the last
Speaker 9: roughly four. Years so those deaths have gone down from
Speaker 9: around eleven hundred in twenty twenty three to around eight
Speaker 9: hundred in twenty twenty. Four that's a significant thirty plus percentage,
Speaker 9: Decrease so we like to see that path.
Speaker 7: Continue.
Speaker 9: Now our report looks at a lot of reasons behind
Speaker 9: that and then make some, recommendations of, course as to
Speaker 9: what is the way. Ahead and we stand by this
Speaker 9: idea that increasing the penalties for folks who possess these,
Speaker 9: drugs reversing some of the decriminalization efforts of twenty nineteen
Speaker 9: twenty twenty is going to continue this path forward of
Speaker 9: a reduction in overdose deaths in addition to continuing to
Speaker 9: provide test strips in the lock, zoon you, know that
Speaker 9: sort of overdose reversal medication that has saved a lot of.
Speaker 1: Lives And john calder our, guest obviously my friend and law,
Speaker 1: partner but he's here talking about The Common Sense institute
Speaker 1: findings on. Fentanyl, Now, john AS i hear about these,
Speaker 1: numbers and you, know it's great to think about three
Speaker 1: hundred fewer deaths and all of those moms and dads
Speaker 1: and families and others who have not lost a loved.
Speaker 1: One but as the report points out that the, number
Speaker 1: that eight hundred number is still a lot higher than
Speaker 1: the baseline had been before, twenty isn't that?
Speaker 9: Right, oh way higher than it was before twenty. Twenty
Speaker 9: and you, know fentanyl exploded onto the scene in twenty,
Speaker 9: twenty or right after the legislature had decriminalized in the
Speaker 9: twenty nineteen law that went into effect in twenty twenty
Speaker 9: that made it a misdemeanor to possess hard drugs, heroin, meth,
Speaker 9: cocaine and. Ventanyl and then at that same, time you
Speaker 9: had the, lockdowns a lot of core, closures a lot
Speaker 9: of jail closures because OF, covid and really a decrease
Speaker 9: in proactive i'd say law, enforcement you, know throughout that,
Speaker 9: summer a lot of it associated WITH.
Speaker 7: Covid so it was.
Speaker 9: A bit of a perfect storm in the state Of.
Speaker 9: Colorado and that is unfortunately one of our other, findings
Speaker 9: which is that even though we're making progress In colorado
Speaker 9: with policy, changes our competitive, Index so how do we
Speaker 9: rate compared to other?
Speaker 7: States?
Speaker 8: Right?
Speaker 7: Right?
Speaker 2: Right is your competing for?
Speaker 1: Tires right when you get these Top fortune one hundred
Speaker 1: companies looking for a place to.
Speaker 7: Land, yeah, well that's certainly a big part of.
Speaker 8: It.
Speaker 9: Right we want to drive, industry and of COURSE i
Speaker 9: have a great economy in this. State but when you
Speaker 9: look at the drug overdose, competitiveness we are still higher
Speaker 9: than we were back in twenty fifteen or thirtieth in the.
Speaker 9: Country and what that tells us is that other states
Speaker 9: are actually seeing, better stronger decreases in the feneral overdose
Speaker 9: death in that fight against this. Drug and so there's
Speaker 9: much more work to do in our.
Speaker 2: State, hey and let me ask you about.
Speaker 1: THIS i got you that there's general and their, exceptions
Speaker 1: downward trend in some cases downward ticking of crime, rates
Speaker 1: Which colorado is overall included in right now to a,
Speaker 1: point what is behind? That because even with, that to
Speaker 1: your last, point we still See colorado way too high
Speaker 1: in terms of. Crime but what's behind this kind of nationwide.
Speaker 9: Easing, YEAH i would say there's a lot of, factors
Speaker 9: but one of the biggest ones, WAS i think the
Speaker 9: loss of support and morale of law enforcement after the
Speaker 9: protests and riots associated with the death Of George. Floyd
Speaker 9: and wherever you fall on, that you know you think
Speaker 9: it's you, know murder or. Not the reality is that
Speaker 9: law enforcement across this state and much of the country
Speaker 9: was vilified. Unfairly you, know most law enforcement officers put
Speaker 9: on that badge and. Uniform it could be their last
Speaker 9: day on this, earth but they go out and do,
Speaker 9: it and they do it to help.
Speaker 7: Make their community, safer and they do it the right.
Speaker 9: Way, now after that, happened you could see, it you
Speaker 9: know in a lot of our statistics where there was
Speaker 9: a decrease in proactive you know law enforcement where you,
Speaker 9: know responding to calls that you know may have been
Speaker 9: on the lower end of the criminal, spectrum, right we're
Speaker 9: certainly less of a priority and more of a concern
Speaker 9: about whether or not they're going to end, up you,
Speaker 9: know in the cross airs of litigation or getting fired
Speaker 9: or made YouTube famous or something like.
Speaker 7: That SO i think that was a big part of.
Speaker 2: It, yeah, yeah it makes total.
Speaker 1: Sense, hey one more, question BECAUSE i know you'll be
Speaker 1: totally objective and honest on, this and a man can't
Speaker 1: sit on his own. Jury but how good do you
Speaker 1: THINK i look in that black cowboy hat That johnny
Speaker 1: And pam brought in? Today johnny And pam dear friends
Speaker 1: of the firm and, clients just the greatest people you'll

Speaker 1: understand a lot of good people in this audience will
Speaker 1: disagree with man THAT i think that was so cheap
Speaker 1: On tucker's. Point pardon you know WHAT i think is
Speaker 1: going on here Because Tucker carlson did a lot of
Speaker 1: good work when he was on. AIR i didn't agree
Speaker 1: with him on, everything but he did a lot of good.
Speaker 1: WORK i think what's going on right now is. Understandable
Speaker 1: maybe for a guy who had that big network platform every,
Speaker 1: day when all of a sudden you don't have that
Speaker 1: network platform. Anymore that THEN i, THINK i think it's
Speaker 1: just just human, nature, right especially for somebody who's been
Speaker 1: in that big, spotlight to just say more and more extreme,
Speaker 1: things to do more and more unusual, things just to
Speaker 1: try to get. ATTENTION i thought that personally was a cheap.
Speaker 1: Trick what would like your take on.
Speaker 10: It i've said We israel is leading, them but we're supporting.
Speaker 2: Them, well you're.
Speaker 5: Breaking news here because THE us government last night denied
Speaker 5: The National Security council Spokesman Alex feiffer denied on behalf
Speaker 5: Of trump that we were acting On israel's behalf.
Speaker 11: In any offensive. Capacity we're not bombing Than israel's bombing.
Speaker 11: Them you just said we, were we are supporting as
Speaker 11: you're a. Senator if you're saying The United states government
Speaker 11: is now we're with a run right. Now people are.
Speaker 2: Listening, SEE i don't think you said that at.
Speaker 11: All i've said We israel is leading, them but we're supporting.
Speaker 10: Them, well you're breaking news.
Speaker 1: Here, Yeah And i'm sorry to See tucker kind of
Speaker 1: reducing himself to this because he has done so much
Speaker 1: good work And i'm sure he will. Again let me
Speaker 1: get to an earlier clip.
Speaker 10: There, okay what's the ethnic mix Of? Ron they Are

Speaker 11: who's Calling you're the one that remember the one who
Speaker 11: about the. Country, no you don't know anything about the.
Speaker 11: Country you're the one who claims they're not trying to
Speaker 11: Murder Donald.
Speaker 10: Trump i'm not saying. That who can't figure, out say

Speaker 10: Today who Said israel was right with our?
Speaker 2: Help? Yeah So.
Speaker 1: I'm sure at least half the audience Supports tucker in.
Speaker 1: This and, LISTEN i understand anybody who's just very hasn't
