00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:03.520
<v Speaker 1>This is Dan Caplis, and welcome to today's online podcast

6
00:00:15.279 --> 00:00:15.439
<v Speaker 2>You know.

7
00:00:15.480 --> 00:00:18.480
<v Speaker 1>And I sit here right now in amazement for so

8
00:00:18.800 --> 00:00:23.199
<v Speaker 1>many different reasons. Amazement at the beauty of nature all

9
00:00:23.239 --> 00:00:26.280
<v Speaker 1>around us, no question, I'm off preparing for trial and

10
00:00:26.359 --> 00:00:29.079
<v Speaker 1>a cabin in the mountain, so amazement at that, but

11
00:00:29.239 --> 00:00:32.640
<v Speaker 1>truly amazement. Not to sound naive, right, I'm not a

12
00:00:32.759 --> 00:00:43.439
<v Speaker 1>little boy, but amazement at how anti anti traditional American values, anti,

13
00:00:43.960 --> 00:00:48.039
<v Speaker 1>you know, so much of what I've grown up to

14
00:00:48.159 --> 00:00:53.640
<v Speaker 1>really appreciate and admire in this country. The Colorado Democratic

15
00:00:53.679 --> 00:00:57.399
<v Speaker 1>Party has become, and so many of its elected officials,

16
00:00:57.399 --> 00:00:59.719
<v Speaker 1>and listen, I understand they've been far left for a

17
00:00:59.719 --> 00:01:03.320
<v Speaker 1>long time time. Policy differences, some of them profoundly moral,

18
00:01:03.439 --> 00:01:07.519
<v Speaker 1>all of that, right, but the extremes that they've gone to,

19
00:01:08.640 --> 00:01:11.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, I just sit back in amazement and say,

20
00:01:11.640 --> 00:01:14.879
<v Speaker 1>how did we this great state of Colorado ever get

21
00:01:14.920 --> 00:01:16.439
<v Speaker 1>to that point. I'm not going to bore you. We

22
00:01:16.480 --> 00:01:18.760
<v Speaker 1>all know the history, right of the blueprint and how

23
00:01:18.840 --> 00:01:23.359
<v Speaker 1>a left targeted Colorado licked its jobs, poured money in,

24
00:01:24.040 --> 00:01:27.640
<v Speaker 1>and was able to execute a plan to turn us

25
00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:31.760
<v Speaker 1>into a radical, far left governed state. And you can

26
00:01:31.760 --> 00:01:34.519
<v Speaker 1>see the state now being hurt in so many different

27
00:01:34.560 --> 00:01:37.560
<v Speaker 1>ways because of it. But what has me today just

28
00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:41.840
<v Speaker 1>sitting back in amazement and then of course thinking about

29
00:01:41.920 --> 00:01:46.200
<v Speaker 1>what we can do to salvage it is Phil Wiser,

30
00:01:46.920 --> 00:01:51.879
<v Speaker 1>chief law enforcement officer of the state, and in that position,

31
00:01:51.959 --> 00:01:55.439
<v Speaker 1>through both fully pulpit and the powers of the Attorney General,

32
00:01:55.439 --> 00:01:57.959
<v Speaker 1>if you want to fully exercise and you have the

33
00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:02.239
<v Speaker 1>opportunity to do so much good, so much good for

34
00:02:02.319 --> 00:02:06.239
<v Speaker 1>innocent people against true criminals. And we all know, you

35
00:02:06.280 --> 00:02:09.240
<v Speaker 1>know the litany. We all know how many true, big

36
00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:13.879
<v Speaker 1>time awful criminals, including cartel members, prey on the people

37
00:02:13.919 --> 00:02:17.800
<v Speaker 1>of Colorado, and how much true horror and death and

38
00:02:18.080 --> 00:02:22.240
<v Speaker 1>rape and pillaging and bloody destruction of human life there

39
00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:25.479
<v Speaker 1>is by criminal elements. And we have a chief law

40
00:02:25.560 --> 00:02:28.879
<v Speaker 1>enforcement officer who lockstep with the policies of the left

41
00:02:28.879 --> 00:02:33.400
<v Speaker 1>in Colorado just ignores so much of that, doesn't use

42
00:02:33.439 --> 00:02:36.400
<v Speaker 1>the power of the office to try to combat those true,

43
00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:44.280
<v Speaker 1>heinous evil villains, but instead target's law enforcement makes law

44
00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:47.919
<v Speaker 1>enforcement the enemy, and it's just part of this overall

45
00:02:48.159 --> 00:02:54.039
<v Speaker 1>trend in Colorado of the left protecting criminals and undermining victims.

46
00:02:54.240 --> 00:02:56.000
<v Speaker 1>And what I'm talking about today we'll get in more

47
00:02:56.039 --> 00:03:00.520
<v Speaker 1>detail later in the show, is that the Attorney General

48
00:03:01.240 --> 00:03:05.360
<v Speaker 1>has now sued He has now sued a Mason County

49
00:03:05.439 --> 00:03:12.520
<v Speaker 1>Sheriff's deputy in his personal capacity, in his personal capacity,

50
00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:16.919
<v Speaker 1>over an allegation the deputy violated Colorado law when he

51
00:03:17.000 --> 00:03:20.520
<v Speaker 1>shared information with federal officials that led to a Utah

52
00:03:20.599 --> 00:03:23.319
<v Speaker 1>College student immigration.

53
00:03:22.960 --> 00:03:25.919
<v Speaker 3>Arrests last month. But my point is this.

54
00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:33.240
<v Speaker 1>Targeting an individual officer in his personal capacity. Now we

55
00:03:33.319 --> 00:03:36.439
<v Speaker 1>can talk about the underlying conduct of this officer.

56
00:03:36.479 --> 00:03:38.479
<v Speaker 3>I even studied it. I can't pass judgment.

57
00:03:38.759 --> 00:03:41.840
<v Speaker 1>But the point is this, there's no dispute that this

58
00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:46.159
<v Speaker 1>officer didn't shoot anybody and kill anybody. There's no claim

59
00:03:46.280 --> 00:03:49.639
<v Speaker 1>of any kind of wrongful use of deadly force or

60
00:03:49.680 --> 00:03:54.080
<v Speaker 1>anything like that. And so to sue an officer in

61
00:03:54.159 --> 00:04:00.319
<v Speaker 1>their personal capacity, think about the message that sends about

62
00:04:00.319 --> 00:04:03.520
<v Speaker 1>how that endangers all of us out here. Not only

63
00:04:03.520 --> 00:04:06.439
<v Speaker 1>do we not see wiser out there, you know, and

64
00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:08.919
<v Speaker 1>maybe there are some isolated examples, but can you show

65
00:04:09.000 --> 00:04:11.680
<v Speaker 1>me any kind of regular effort on the part of

66
00:04:11.680 --> 00:04:14.680
<v Speaker 1>Wiser to use the Attorney General's office to go out

67
00:04:14.680 --> 00:04:18.439
<v Speaker 1>there and to sue personally, to go out and sue civilly,

68
00:04:18.800 --> 00:04:20.959
<v Speaker 1>to use the full powers of the office in any

69
00:04:20.959 --> 00:04:26.759
<v Speaker 1>manner possible, you know, against these drug dealers, against these cartels,

70
00:04:27.240 --> 00:04:33.040
<v Speaker 1>against these human traffickers. But he makes it a point

71
00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:38.600
<v Speaker 1>to sue this one individual officer personally. And think about

72
00:04:38.600 --> 00:04:41.920
<v Speaker 1>how that endangers you right now, if you're living in Colorado,

73
00:04:43.800 --> 00:04:46.920
<v Speaker 1>how much tougher is it going to be to keep

74
00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:53.519
<v Speaker 1>good officers and to attract good officers. If you decide

75
00:04:54.000 --> 00:04:57.319
<v Speaker 1>to courageously serve as a law enforcement officer in Colorado,

76
00:04:58.079 --> 00:05:06.680
<v Speaker 1>you're walking into ultra far left political boiling pot where

77
00:05:06.720 --> 00:05:09.120
<v Speaker 1>they can't wait to make you, as an officer, a

78
00:05:09.199 --> 00:05:15.279
<v Speaker 1>human sacrifice, where the Attorney General of the state takes

79
00:05:15.279 --> 00:05:19.519
<v Speaker 1>that massive hammer and sues you personally. And as the

80
00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:21.439
<v Speaker 1>son of a cop, and a cop who I am

81
00:05:21.480 --> 00:05:24.560
<v Speaker 1>absolutely certain never did anything wrong in his thirty year career,

82
00:05:25.000 --> 00:05:28.600
<v Speaker 1>but as the son of a cop, the idea that

83
00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:32.360
<v Speaker 1>the Attorney General of the state would sue an individual

84
00:05:32.399 --> 00:05:36.519
<v Speaker 1>officer in their personal capacity to make an example of

85
00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:37.279
<v Speaker 1>them like this.

86
00:05:38.759 --> 00:05:39.959
<v Speaker 3>It's a kind.

87
00:05:39.879 --> 00:05:42.800
<v Speaker 1>Of thing that's going to cause a lot of good

88
00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:44.720
<v Speaker 1>cops to never come here and a lot of good

89
00:05:44.759 --> 00:05:47.079
<v Speaker 1>cops to leave. But do you think Phil Wiser cares

90
00:05:47.120 --> 00:05:51.399
<v Speaker 1>about that? No, not at all. And think about the

91
00:05:51.439 --> 00:05:54.600
<v Speaker 1>issue he's acting on it again, the particular behavior of

92
00:05:54.680 --> 00:05:59.560
<v Speaker 1>this underlying officer who's not accused of assaulting anybody or

93
00:05:59.600 --> 00:06:01.800
<v Speaker 1>beating anybody or shooting anybody.

94
00:06:02.160 --> 00:06:04.680
<v Speaker 3>You know, whether he violated Colorado statute or not, I

95
00:06:04.720 --> 00:06:06.319
<v Speaker 3>don't know, but this I do know.

96
00:06:07.279 --> 00:06:09.319
<v Speaker 1>I know that we can point to lots and lots

97
00:06:09.360 --> 00:06:12.560
<v Speaker 1>and lots of women who have been raped by people

98
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:15.480
<v Speaker 1>here illegally. And that's no comment on the college student

99
00:06:15.519 --> 00:06:18.240
<v Speaker 1>this officer interacted with. I assume she's a very fine

100
00:06:18.279 --> 00:06:20.319
<v Speaker 1>person who's never done anything wrong in her life.

101
00:06:20.319 --> 00:06:21.120
<v Speaker 3>That's not the point.

102
00:06:22.279 --> 00:06:26.639
<v Speaker 1>But the point is we have had a massive amount

103
00:06:26.720 --> 00:06:30.800
<v Speaker 1>of the worst kinds of crime committed by people in

104
00:06:30.839 --> 00:06:34.279
<v Speaker 1>this state I legally, And how often have you heard

105
00:06:34.279 --> 00:06:36.839
<v Speaker 1>Phil Wiser express any concern about that? And I understand

106
00:06:36.879 --> 00:06:39.959
<v Speaker 1>it's a very small percentage of the people who come

107
00:06:40.000 --> 00:06:42.199
<v Speaker 1>to our state I legally, who commit crimes like that,

108
00:06:42.480 --> 00:06:45.360
<v Speaker 1>But there shouldn't be one if you're attorney general of

109
00:06:45.399 --> 00:06:47.839
<v Speaker 1>this state, there shouldn't be any.

110
00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:49.240
<v Speaker 3>Acceptable casualty rate.

111
00:06:49.759 --> 00:06:52.360
<v Speaker 1>But rather than focus they're the massive power of his

112
00:06:52.439 --> 00:06:54.199
<v Speaker 1>office and there are a lot of great attorneys there

113
00:06:54.199 --> 00:06:57.399
<v Speaker 1>and tons of money. Rather than focus that effort on

114
00:06:57.560 --> 00:07:03.519
<v Speaker 1>protecting Colorado's from being further preyed upon by folks who

115
00:07:03.560 --> 00:07:07.560
<v Speaker 1>come here illegally and commit heinous crimes, he singles out

116
00:07:07.600 --> 00:07:12.680
<v Speaker 1>an individual officer and sues that officer personally as some

117
00:07:12.800 --> 00:07:15.480
<v Speaker 1>kind of political stunt to get him self attention during

118
00:07:15.480 --> 00:07:17.560
<v Speaker 1>a campaign at whose expense.

119
00:07:17.240 --> 00:07:17.560
<v Speaker 3>Not his.

120
00:07:18.199 --> 00:07:21.439
<v Speaker 1>You can bet he has plenty of security. But everybody

121
00:07:21.439 --> 00:07:25.519
<v Speaker 1>else living in Colorado who's very lives and quality of

122
00:07:25.560 --> 00:07:29.079
<v Speaker 1>life depend on being able to attract and keep good officers.

123
00:07:29.680 --> 00:07:31.720
<v Speaker 1>How did what the attorney general of this state do

124
00:07:32.199 --> 00:07:34.879
<v Speaker 1>just do? How did that help any of the rest

125
00:07:34.879 --> 00:07:37.879
<v Speaker 1>of the people of Colorado who just want to go

126
00:07:37.920 --> 00:07:41.160
<v Speaker 1>about their lives with safety, and we're all dependent on

127
00:07:41.240 --> 00:07:45.199
<v Speaker 1>law enforcement for that. So, yeah, that's what I'm amazed

128
00:07:45.240 --> 00:07:50.000
<v Speaker 1>at that a state like this could go so wildly

129
00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:53.040
<v Speaker 1>pro criminal. And again, I'm not talking about the young

130
00:07:53.120 --> 00:07:56.480
<v Speaker 1>lady involved in this incident, not at all. I'm just

131
00:07:56.600 --> 00:08:00.600
<v Speaker 1>talking about this pro criminal, pro person here legally who

132
00:08:00.639 --> 00:08:02.879
<v Speaker 1>commits other crimes and then bring the hammer of the

133
00:08:02.920 --> 00:08:06.839
<v Speaker 1>state down on an individual officer through a suit in

134
00:08:06.879 --> 00:08:10.680
<v Speaker 1>their personal capacity. And I understand that the significance of

135
00:08:10.720 --> 00:08:14.279
<v Speaker 1>that may be lost at times, but when law enforcement

136
00:08:14.360 --> 00:08:17.519
<v Speaker 1>officers get sued and we in our practice, you know,

137
00:08:17.879 --> 00:08:20.160
<v Speaker 1>we do not do that because my dad was a cop,

138
00:08:20.199 --> 00:08:22.600
<v Speaker 1>and he was a great cop. And listen, sometimes any

139
00:08:22.680 --> 00:08:24.879
<v Speaker 1>human endeavor, it could be lawyers, it could be doctors,

140
00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:27.680
<v Speaker 1>it could be cops. God forbidden, it has been on

141
00:08:27.680 --> 00:08:30.560
<v Speaker 1>occasion a priest. Any human endeavor, you're going to get

142
00:08:30.560 --> 00:08:35.039
<v Speaker 1>some bad apples. And if somebody wrongfully hurts somebody, then yeah,

143
00:08:35.080 --> 00:08:38.120
<v Speaker 1>there should be justice. We just choose in our office

144
00:08:38.120 --> 00:08:41.919
<v Speaker 1>not to do those particular cases because my dad was

145
00:08:41.960 --> 00:08:45.799
<v Speaker 1>a cop. We represent so many law enforcement officers, but

146
00:08:47.480 --> 00:08:52.279
<v Speaker 1>when officers get sued, it's almost always a case of

147
00:08:52.320 --> 00:08:57.000
<v Speaker 1>getting sued through the department for the Attorney General to command,

148
00:08:57.039 --> 00:08:59.519
<v Speaker 1>and there are some cases in individual capacity, but for

149
00:08:59.519 --> 00:09:04.039
<v Speaker 1>the Attorney General to commit the attorney general and target

150
00:09:04.120 --> 00:09:08.639
<v Speaker 1>this officer in Masa County to sue this deputy in

151
00:09:08.679 --> 00:09:11.759
<v Speaker 1>their personal capacity, that's a really big deal and it's

152
00:09:12.480 --> 00:09:15.879
<v Speaker 1>really really harmful to the state of Colorado. You're telling

153
00:09:15.879 --> 00:09:18.600
<v Speaker 1>me there's no other way the Attorney general could have

154
00:09:18.639 --> 00:09:23.559
<v Speaker 1>assured that if this officer did violate a Colorado statute

155
00:09:23.559 --> 00:09:27.519
<v Speaker 1>in the way he handled this particular individual, that wouldn't

156
00:09:27.559 --> 00:09:28.039
<v Speaker 1>happen again.

157
00:09:28.080 --> 00:09:30.159
<v Speaker 3>There's no other way he could have accomplished it.

158
00:09:30.200 --> 00:09:35.759
<v Speaker 1>No wiser decided to grandstand and do something really bad

159
00:09:35.799 --> 00:09:38.039
<v Speaker 1>and really rare, which is why it gets news to

160
00:09:38.120 --> 00:09:40.639
<v Speaker 1>make himself a hero on the left at the expense

161
00:09:40.679 --> 00:09:46.039
<v Speaker 1>of whom everybody else, right, everybody else in Colorado depends

162
00:09:46.080 --> 00:09:50.080
<v Speaker 1>on law enforcement for safety. So yeah, that's what we've

163
00:09:50.080 --> 00:09:52.600
<v Speaker 1>got in Colorado right now. So lots to talk about.

164
00:09:52.639 --> 00:09:54.279
<v Speaker 1>I want to come back. I'll take your calls and

165
00:09:54.360 --> 00:09:56.679
<v Speaker 1>text on that, But I also want to talk about

166
00:09:56.759 --> 00:10:01.679
<v Speaker 1>President Trump today very directly accusing Barack Obama of treason.

167
00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:05.399
<v Speaker 1>Are their prosecutions coming of Barack Obama? Should there be

168
00:10:05.840 --> 00:10:08.320
<v Speaker 1>three or three seven one three eight two five five

169
00:10:08.399 --> 00:10:11.240
<v Speaker 1>takes d a n five seven seven three nine.

170
00:10:11.240 --> 00:10:12.759
<v Speaker 3>You're on the dan Capla Show.

171
00:10:19.279 --> 00:10:23.639
<v Speaker 4>And now back to the dan Caaplas Show podcast, which

172
00:10:23.720 --> 00:10:24.000
<v Speaker 4>hut that.

173
00:10:24.039 --> 00:10:27.200
<v Speaker 2>You should be talking about is they caught President Obama

174
00:10:27.279 --> 00:10:29.840
<v Speaker 2>absolutely called Chelsea Gabbert.

175
00:10:31.080 --> 00:10:32.840
<v Speaker 5>What they did to this country in.

176
00:10:33.279 --> 00:10:36.679
<v Speaker 2>Twenty sixteen, starting in twenty sixteen, but going up all

177
00:10:36.679 --> 00:10:39.240
<v Speaker 2>the way going up to twenty twenty of the election,

178
00:10:39.960 --> 00:10:41.279
<v Speaker 2>they tried to rig the election.

179
00:10:42.080 --> 00:10:42.879
<v Speaker 5>Then they got.

180
00:10:42.639 --> 00:10:46.519
<v Speaker 2>Caught and there should be very severe consequences.

181
00:10:45.799 --> 00:10:47.279
<v Speaker 5>So that you know, when we.

182
00:10:47.240 --> 00:10:50.279
<v Speaker 2>Caught Hillary Clinton, I said, you know what, let's not

183
00:10:51.000 --> 00:10:54.080
<v Speaker 2>let's not go too far here. It's the ex wife

184
00:10:54.080 --> 00:10:56.399
<v Speaker 2>of a president, and I thought it was sort of.

185
00:10:56.440 --> 00:10:59.120
<v Speaker 5>Terrible and I let her off the hook and a

186
00:10:59.240 --> 00:11:03.559
<v Speaker 5>very happy idea. But it's time to start after what

187
00:11:03.600 --> 00:11:04.159
<v Speaker 5>they did to.

188
00:11:04.159 --> 00:11:08.159
<v Speaker 2>Me, and whether it's right or wrong, it's time to

189
00:11:08.159 --> 00:11:08.960
<v Speaker 2>go after people.

190
00:11:09.480 --> 00:11:13.159
<v Speaker 5>Obama's been caught directly. So people say, oh, you know

191
00:11:13.240 --> 00:11:15.440
<v Speaker 5>a group, It's not a group, it's Obama.

192
00:11:15.679 --> 00:11:18.519
<v Speaker 2>His orders are on the paper, the papers are signed,

193
00:11:18.559 --> 00:11:20.679
<v Speaker 2>The papers came right out of their office. They send

194
00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:24.120
<v Speaker 2>everything to be highly classified. Well the highly classified it

195
00:11:24.120 --> 00:11:28.000
<v Speaker 2>has been released. And what they did in twenty sixteen

196
00:11:28.039 --> 00:11:29.399
<v Speaker 2>and in twenty twenty.

197
00:11:30.279 --> 00:11:33.440
<v Speaker 5>Is very criminal. It's criminal at the highest level.

198
00:11:34.960 --> 00:11:36.799
<v Speaker 3>Now this is a big deal. I want to break

199
00:11:36.840 --> 00:11:38.279
<v Speaker 3>this down with you. Gets your take on it?

200
00:11:38.360 --> 00:11:40.679
<v Speaker 1>Three or three seven one, three eight two five five

201
00:11:40.720 --> 00:11:43.799
<v Speaker 1>text D and five seven seven three nine.

202
00:11:44.200 --> 00:11:45.840
<v Speaker 3>I mean, obviously, you have a very.

203
00:11:45.679 --> 00:11:50.879
<v Speaker 1>Successful sitting president who is accusing a former president of treason.

204
00:11:51.200 --> 00:11:52.600
<v Speaker 3>And that's a big deal.

205
00:11:53.159 --> 00:11:55.919
<v Speaker 1>I mean, even in our kind of you very intense

206
00:11:56.000 --> 00:11:59.440
<v Speaker 1>political climate right now, that's not nothing. So I want

207
00:11:59.440 --> 00:12:01.679
<v Speaker 1>to dig into, want to get your take out of

208
00:12:01.759 --> 00:12:05.720
<v Speaker 1>mine on whether he's right, whether it actually happened, and

209
00:12:05.759 --> 00:12:08.559
<v Speaker 1>then critically on whether it can be proven in a court,

210
00:12:08.679 --> 00:12:11.120
<v Speaker 1>because as you know, there's a difference between the truth

211
00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:16.120
<v Speaker 1>and proof. And I've spent my professional life proving the truth,

212
00:12:16.799 --> 00:12:19.000
<v Speaker 1>and there are many times when you know something is

213
00:12:19.200 --> 00:12:21.480
<v Speaker 1>absolutely true and then it takes a lot of really

214
00:12:21.519 --> 00:12:23.360
<v Speaker 1>hard work to be able to go out and prove it.

215
00:12:23.960 --> 00:12:26.879
<v Speaker 1>Can they prove this or do you disagree and think

216
00:12:26.919 --> 00:12:27.679
<v Speaker 1>it's just not true?

217
00:12:27.679 --> 00:12:32.120
<v Speaker 3>Obama didn't do that. But clearly the president setting this

218
00:12:32.200 --> 00:12:34.440
<v Speaker 3>up right now is one of two things. Right This

219
00:12:34.639 --> 00:12:35.399
<v Speaker 3>is either a.

220
00:12:36.440 --> 00:12:40.159
<v Speaker 1>Short lived shot that he really wants to take because

221
00:12:40.159 --> 00:12:42.200
<v Speaker 1>there's no doubt in his mind that it is true.

222
00:12:42.879 --> 00:12:49.279
<v Speaker 1>And if we're talking about you know, Barack Obama intentionally

223
00:12:50.240 --> 00:12:53.840
<v Speaker 1>trying to create this impression that Donald Trump was illegitimate

224
00:12:53.879 --> 00:12:57.679
<v Speaker 1>and that Russia had colluded with Trump to steal the election.

225
00:12:57.759 --> 00:12:57.960
<v Speaker 3>Etc.

226
00:12:58.519 --> 00:13:03.519
<v Speaker 1>Zero dumb Obama did that right? Now, big difference between

227
00:13:03.559 --> 00:13:06.840
<v Speaker 1>that and did he commit a crime? Did he commit

228
00:13:06.879 --> 00:13:09.159
<v Speaker 1>a provable crime? I mean, those are different issues that

229
00:13:09.200 --> 00:13:12.240
<v Speaker 1>I want to start to dissect with you. Three or

230
00:13:12.279 --> 00:13:14.639
<v Speaker 1>three seven one three eight two five five texts d

231
00:13:14.759 --> 00:13:17.559
<v Speaker 1>An five seven seven three nine. So it's either the

232
00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:20.639
<v Speaker 1>president taking that shot because he believes that it's true,

233
00:13:20.639 --> 00:13:24.679
<v Speaker 1>and obviously he's been He's been wronged more than any

234
00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:27.720
<v Speaker 1>president in our history who was not assassinated, right and

235
00:13:27.799 --> 00:13:30.720
<v Speaker 1>lord knows had tried to assassinate him, but he has

236
00:13:30.759 --> 00:13:34.600
<v Speaker 1>been so severely wronged. It may just be him wanting

237
00:13:34.639 --> 00:13:36.720
<v Speaker 1>to come out and make sure he put that marker down,

238
00:13:36.799 --> 00:13:39.679
<v Speaker 1>let everybody know what he thinks happened. Or it may

239
00:13:39.720 --> 00:13:43.279
<v Speaker 1>be that that DJ is preparing to prosecute. So we've

240
00:13:43.279 --> 00:13:45.840
<v Speaker 1>got one of those two scenarios, which do you.

241
00:13:45.919 --> 00:13:46.519
<v Speaker 3>Think it is?

242
00:13:47.000 --> 00:13:50.639
<v Speaker 1>Again, you can text us DAN five seven seven three

243
00:13:50.799 --> 00:13:53.320
<v Speaker 1>nine Before we get to the money bite, and this

244
00:13:53.480 --> 00:13:55.559
<v Speaker 1>is where you know, the President just comes out and

245
00:13:55.559 --> 00:13:59.840
<v Speaker 1>says directly that Obama committed treason. Interesting company made there,

246
00:14:00.080 --> 00:14:01.519
<v Speaker 1>and I'm sure he meant to say the wife of

247
00:14:01.519 --> 00:14:05.440
<v Speaker 1>an ex president rather than the ex wife of a president,

248
00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:09.720
<v Speaker 1>but in referring to Hillary Clinton, confirming that he had

249
00:14:09.720 --> 00:14:12.600
<v Speaker 1>made the decision, you know, not to have her prosecuted,

250
00:14:12.679 --> 00:14:14.919
<v Speaker 1>because I think clearly if it had just been a

251
00:14:14.960 --> 00:14:19.039
<v Speaker 1>straight up DOJ followed the evidence deal, that she would

252
00:14:19.039 --> 00:14:21.879
<v Speaker 1>have been prosecuted because I think she was clearly guilty.

253
00:14:21.919 --> 00:14:24.440
<v Speaker 3>Now it's been a while, so I haven't.

254
00:14:24.240 --> 00:14:29.360
<v Speaker 1>Looked into the double jeopardy issues and whether you know

255
00:14:29.399 --> 00:14:32.919
<v Speaker 1>the fact that you know the prior administration had taken

256
00:14:32.919 --> 00:14:36.080
<v Speaker 1>a pass on that obviously a corrupt decision in my opinion,

257
00:14:36.600 --> 00:14:39.399
<v Speaker 1>whether that would create any double jeopardy kind of issues,

258
00:14:39.960 --> 00:14:43.840
<v Speaker 1>But it makes perfect sense to me that Trump had

259
00:14:43.840 --> 00:14:45.879
<v Speaker 1>made that decision, No, don't want to go after And

260
00:14:45.919 --> 00:14:49.200
<v Speaker 1>that's the irony, right he came into office. He came

261
00:14:49.240 --> 00:14:52.879
<v Speaker 1>into office ready to appoint let bygones be bygones, and

262
00:14:52.919 --> 00:14:56.559
<v Speaker 1>then go try to serve the country, whereas the left

263
00:14:56.679 --> 00:15:00.559
<v Speaker 1>came in to execute a coup. And I am prattell

264
00:15:00.600 --> 00:15:03.240
<v Speaker 1>stopped talking about it, probably never, but I'm very proud

265
00:15:03.279 --> 00:15:05.159
<v Speaker 1>of the fact that I called it a coup at

266
00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:07.440
<v Speaker 1>the time that was happening, and now in retrospect, I

267
00:15:07.480 --> 00:15:10.159
<v Speaker 1>think everybody can see that it was a coup.

268
00:15:10.159 --> 00:15:10.519
<v Speaker 3>Attempt.

269
00:15:10.559 --> 00:15:14.360
<v Speaker 1>All right, the president directly saying it, cut forty two plays.

270
00:15:15.960 --> 00:15:19.799
<v Speaker 2>But the leader of the gang was President Obama, Barack

271
00:15:19.919 --> 00:15:20.799
<v Speaker 2>Hussein Obama.

272
00:15:20.840 --> 00:15:23.519
<v Speaker 5>Have you heard of him? And except for the.

273
00:15:23.519 --> 00:15:26.039
<v Speaker 2>Fact that he gets shielded by the press for his

274
00:15:26.279 --> 00:15:27.480
<v Speaker 2>entire life.

275
00:15:27.600 --> 00:15:31.679
<v Speaker 5>That's the one they look. He's guilty. Is that a question?

276
00:15:32.000 --> 00:15:32.159
<v Speaker 1>You know?

277
00:15:32.200 --> 00:15:36.559
<v Speaker 5>I like to say, let's give it time. It's there.

278
00:15:36.679 --> 00:15:41.960
<v Speaker 5>He's guilty. They this was treason. This was every word

279
00:15:42.039 --> 00:15:42.720
<v Speaker 5>you can think of.

280
00:15:43.360 --> 00:15:47.440
<v Speaker 2>They tried to steal the election, They tried to obfuscape

281
00:15:47.480 --> 00:15:51.279
<v Speaker 2>the election. They did things that nobody's ever even imagined,

282
00:15:51.360 --> 00:15:52.440
<v Speaker 2>even in other countries.

283
00:15:53.759 --> 00:15:56.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, so just directly accusing him of treason. We've talked

284
00:15:56.600 --> 00:15:58.960
<v Speaker 1>about it before, we will again. We can break down

285
00:15:59.000 --> 00:16:02.320
<v Speaker 1>the legal elements, but keep it in mind obviously that

286
00:16:02.320 --> 00:16:07.360
<v Speaker 1>that DOJ. You know, DOJ works under the president. I mean,

287
00:16:07.360 --> 00:16:11.200
<v Speaker 1>obviously presidents in theory distance themselves from DJ.

288
00:16:11.399 --> 00:16:13.840
<v Speaker 3>Obviously, administration the.

289
00:16:13.840 --> 00:16:16.240
<v Speaker 1>Opposite of that, at least when it comes to individual

290
00:16:16.799 --> 00:16:19.399
<v Speaker 1>charging decisions.

291
00:16:18.399 --> 00:16:23.279
<v Speaker 3>But what do you think do you think that DOJ is.

292
00:16:24.960 --> 00:16:28.240
<v Speaker 1>Is actually following through in the process of following through

293
00:16:28.240 --> 00:16:31.320
<v Speaker 1>the criminal charges, because normally you would think the president

294
00:16:31.320 --> 00:16:34.720
<v Speaker 1>would not go that far unless he believed it was

295
00:16:34.840 --> 00:16:36.200
<v Speaker 1>provable and.

296
00:16:36.120 --> 00:16:38.480
<v Speaker 3>That DOJ was going to act on it.

297
00:16:38.639 --> 00:16:40.399
<v Speaker 1>So I want to get your take on that and

298
00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:42.679
<v Speaker 1>break it down in some more detail three h three

299
00:16:42.759 --> 00:16:45.159
<v Speaker 1>seven one three eight two five five text d an

300
00:16:45.320 --> 00:16:48.799
<v Speaker 1>five seven seven three nine. As we sit here right now,

301
00:16:49.679 --> 00:16:52.639
<v Speaker 1>my personal belief and my instincts are normally pretty good

302
00:16:52.799 --> 00:16:55.279
<v Speaker 1>on these things. But I don't have access to this

303
00:16:55.360 --> 00:16:59.120
<v Speaker 1>classified information right so all I can do is is

304
00:16:59.200 --> 00:17:02.039
<v Speaker 1>break it down for what's publicly available, based on what's

305
00:17:02.080 --> 00:17:06.240
<v Speaker 1>publicly available. Bottom line for me is I do think

306
00:17:06.359 --> 00:17:13.559
<v Speaker 1>that President Obama did try to destroy, undermine, subvert the

307
00:17:13.599 --> 00:17:17.559
<v Speaker 1>Trump presidency with a false allegation that Trump had colluded

308
00:17:17.559 --> 00:17:20.599
<v Speaker 1>with Russia to win the election. So I think President

309
00:17:20.599 --> 00:17:24.079
<v Speaker 1>Obama did try to destroy Trump personally as well as

310
00:17:24.079 --> 00:17:27.720
<v Speaker 1>his presidency with the false allegation. Do I think that

311
00:17:27.880 --> 00:17:30.559
<v Speaker 1>there is the kind of proof that you would need

312
00:17:31.240 --> 00:17:35.839
<v Speaker 1>to bring charges and to convict on such charges. No,

313
00:17:36.160 --> 00:17:39.359
<v Speaker 1>my hunches there is not. And the reason I say

314
00:17:39.359 --> 00:17:44.640
<v Speaker 1>that is that Barack Obama, I think, is a smart operator,

315
00:17:45.319 --> 00:17:47.599
<v Speaker 1>and I don't think there's any way in the world

316
00:17:47.720 --> 00:17:51.920
<v Speaker 1>that he would that he would have allowed the kind

317
00:17:51.960 --> 00:17:57.599
<v Speaker 1>of evidentiary trail that would be necessary to prove the charges,

318
00:17:57.759 --> 00:17:59.839
<v Speaker 1>to bring the charges, let alone prove them if I'm

319
00:18:00.160 --> 00:18:01.599
<v Speaker 1>about what came down.

320
00:18:02.480 --> 00:18:04.559
<v Speaker 3>So that's my take on it. Love to get yours.

321
00:18:04.759 --> 00:18:05.440
<v Speaker 3>We have that.

322
00:18:05.599 --> 00:18:08.160
<v Speaker 1>We have a whole lot more going on today as well.

323
00:18:08.519 --> 00:18:10.960

325
00:18:14.359 --> 00:18:16.880
<v Speaker 1>course we have to follow up on the Mayor of Denver,

326
00:18:17.680 --> 00:18:21.119
<v Speaker 1>Mike Johnston with his latest inspirational words.

327

<v Speaker 3>Kind of our own bag Dad Bob.

328
00:18:23.079 --> 00:18:26.039
<v Speaker 1>It's gotten so ludicrous it's hard to even get mad

329
00:18:26.079 --> 00:18:26.799
<v Speaker 1>about it anymore.

330
00:18:26.839 --> 00:18:29.839
<v Speaker 3>You just have to kind of marvel and feel sorry

331
00:18:29.839 --> 00:18:31.440
<v Speaker 3>for him. You're on the Dan Kapla Show.

332
00:18:38.319 --> 00:18:40.759
<v Speaker 4>You're listening to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.

333
00:18:42.400 --> 00:18:45.039
<v Speaker 2>If you look at that those papers, they have a

334
00:18:45.079 --> 00:18:47.759
<v Speaker 2>stone called and it was President Obama.

335
00:18:48.400 --> 00:18:51.319
<v Speaker 5>It wasn't lots of people all over the place. It

336
00:18:51.400 --> 00:18:52.359
<v Speaker 5>was them too.

337
00:18:52.440 --> 00:18:56.319
<v Speaker 2>But the leader of the gang was President Obama, Barack

338
00:18:56.400 --> 00:18:57.319
<v Speaker 2>Hussein Obama.

339
00:18:57.359 --> 00:19:00.279
<v Speaker 5>Have you heard of him? And except for the fact

340
00:19:00.279 --> 00:19:01.519
<v Speaker 5>that he gets shielded by.

341
00:19:01.359 --> 00:19:06.519
<v Speaker 2>The press for his entire life, that's the one they

342
00:19:06.519 --> 00:19:07.440
<v Speaker 2>look He's guilty.

343
00:19:07.519 --> 00:19:08.200
<v Speaker 5>Is that a question?

344
00:19:08.519 --> 00:19:08.680
<v Speaker 6>You know?

345
00:19:08.720 --> 00:19:13.079
<v Speaker 5>I like to say, let's give it time, it's there.

346
00:19:13.160 --> 00:19:18.480
<v Speaker 5>He's guilty. They this was treason. This was every word

347
00:19:18.559 --> 00:19:19.240
<v Speaker 5>you can think of.

348
00:19:19.880 --> 00:19:23.880
<v Speaker 2>They tried to steal the election, They tried to obfuscate

349
00:19:24.000 --> 00:19:27.799
<v Speaker 2>the election. They did things that nobody's ever even imagined,

350
00:19:27.839 --> 00:19:28.960
<v Speaker 2>even in other countries.

351
00:19:30.559 --> 00:19:31.839
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, laying down the marker.

352
00:19:32.079 --> 00:19:35.400
<v Speaker 1>So do you expect to see a prosecution at this point?

353
00:19:35.440 --> 00:19:37.559
<v Speaker 1>Three or three seven one three eight two five five

354
00:19:37.599 --> 00:19:40.680
<v Speaker 1>the number text d A N five seven seven three nine.

355
00:19:40.759 --> 00:19:44.240
<v Speaker 1>Do you want to see a prosecution at this point?

356
00:19:44.720 --> 00:19:47.039
<v Speaker 1>Texter Dan All this is just to wag the dog,

357
00:19:47.119 --> 00:19:50.599
<v Speaker 1>diversion away from the Epstein issue, trees and coup. January sixth,

358
00:19:50.599 --> 00:19:55.480
<v Speaker 1>Trump wasn't leaving until they forced him out. Criminal was

359
00:19:55.839 --> 00:19:59.319
<v Speaker 1>one problem with that theory. He did leave, But I'm

360
00:19:59.359 --> 00:20:01.359
<v Speaker 1>sure a text would not want to be bothered with

361
00:20:01.400 --> 00:20:04.279
<v Speaker 1>those facts in a wag the dog.

362
00:20:04.359 --> 00:20:06.799
<v Speaker 3>Hey, you know timing. Of course, that's a fair question.

363
00:20:06.920 --> 00:20:10.319
<v Speaker 1>As a president doing this now to distract from this

364
00:20:10.359 --> 00:20:14.839
<v Speaker 1>Epstein mess, maybe that that wouldn't make it any less true.

365
00:20:15.559 --> 00:20:18.240
<v Speaker 1>And again, I think we're in a situation where there's

366
00:20:18.279 --> 00:20:21.759
<v Speaker 1>no question in my mind Barack Obama was trying to

367
00:20:22.039 --> 00:20:25.440
<v Speaker 1>undermine the Trump presidency. A coup I'm not using it

368
00:20:25.440 --> 00:20:28.720
<v Speaker 1>in the legal sense, but in the reality sense. With

369
00:20:28.839 --> 00:20:31.519
<v Speaker 1>these false allegations of Russian colusion, no doubt in my

370
00:20:31.599 --> 00:20:35.880
<v Speaker 1>mind that happened. And I'm equally confident that the administration

371
00:20:36.279 --> 00:20:38.559
<v Speaker 1>won't be able to bring a criminal case and prove

372
00:20:38.640 --> 00:20:41.839
<v Speaker 1>those charges because I think Obama was too smart to

373
00:20:41.920 --> 00:20:45.200
<v Speaker 1>leave that kind of trail. But we will find out together,

374
00:20:45.319 --> 00:20:49.359
<v Speaker 1>right Dan, the majority is passing laws that weaken the

375
00:20:49.440 --> 00:20:51.880
<v Speaker 1>rule of law. Any official with credible info of a

376
00:20:51.920 --> 00:20:54.759
<v Speaker 1>crime should be expected to report it to proper authorities,

377
00:20:54.839 --> 00:20:57.279
<v Speaker 1>not be barred by law and prosecuted for doing it.

378
00:20:57.319 --> 00:21:00.799
<v Speaker 1>The Age is acting in a shameful manner. That's Representative

379
00:21:00.880 --> 00:21:05.640
<v Speaker 1>Chris Richardson House Sister fifty six representative always welcome to

380
00:21:05.720 --> 00:21:09.200
<v Speaker 1>join us on the show, so appreciate that at any point.

381
00:21:09.599 --> 00:21:12.359
<v Speaker 1>But we were talking about earlier where Phil Wiser now

382
00:21:12.440 --> 00:21:16.480
<v Speaker 1>is targeting an individual, sheriff's deputy in Mason County and

383
00:21:16.640 --> 00:21:22.279
<v Speaker 1>suing him individually in his personal capacity, allegedly for passing

384
00:21:22.279 --> 00:21:26.599
<v Speaker 1>along information to Ice about a motorist. He stopped, and

385
00:21:26.640 --> 00:21:29.240
<v Speaker 1>I was just talking about the very chilling it's a

386
00:21:29.319 --> 00:21:32.119
<v Speaker 1>nicety legal word effect that it's going to have on

387
00:21:32.160 --> 00:21:35.240
<v Speaker 1>the ability to keep and recruit police officers to the state,

388
00:21:35.559 --> 00:21:40.119
<v Speaker 1>regardless of the underlying circumstances. He's not accused of physical assault,

389
00:21:40.200 --> 00:21:43.599
<v Speaker 1>he's not accused of excessive force or anything else like that.

390
00:21:43.759 --> 00:21:45.880
<v Speaker 1>So for the age of a state to target an

391
00:21:45.920 --> 00:21:51.880
<v Speaker 1>individual officer and bring a personal civil lawsuit against that officer, yeah,

392
00:21:52.200 --> 00:21:57.720
<v Speaker 1>that is just the epitome of the anti cop anti.

393
00:21:57.480 --> 00:21:58.119
<v Speaker 3>Rule of law.

394
00:21:58.240 --> 00:22:01.400
<v Speaker 1>Left we have right now trail three seven, three eight,

395
00:22:01.440 --> 00:22:04.960
<v Speaker 1>two five five the number I Hey, want to get

396
00:22:05.000 --> 00:22:06.440
<v Speaker 1>to some other hot sound of the day. But I

397
00:22:06.480 --> 00:22:10.200
<v Speaker 1>know one big question as we kick all this around is, hey,

398
00:22:10.240 --> 00:22:15.000
<v Speaker 1>what is treason under the law? And is President Trump

399
00:22:15.279 --> 00:22:19.559
<v Speaker 1>suggesting Obama can be prosecuted? And I don't think the

400
00:22:19.599 --> 00:22:22.839
<v Speaker 1>president's suggesting that because I don't see any way that

401
00:22:22.920 --> 00:22:27.440
<v Speaker 1>he could be. Listen, if President Obama left the kind

402
00:22:27.480 --> 00:22:30.519
<v Speaker 1>of trail, the kind of evidentiary trail it would take

403
00:22:30.640 --> 00:22:34.079
<v Speaker 1>to bring criminal charges here, from everything I can see,

404
00:22:34.119 --> 00:22:37.160
<v Speaker 1>it wouldn't be criminal charges for treason because treason is

405
00:22:37.200 --> 00:22:37.759
<v Speaker 1>really narrow.

406
00:22:37.799 --> 00:22:40.119
<v Speaker 3>No, listen, big grain of salt here. Okay.

407
00:22:40.319 --> 00:22:44.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't practice criminal law. I do catastrophic injury and

408
00:22:44.440 --> 00:22:48.039
<v Speaker 1>wrungful death work. So you know, I've covered some big

409
00:22:48.079 --> 00:22:52.880
<v Speaker 1>criminal trials in our country, including you know, Rodney King, O. J. Simpson,

410
00:22:52.960 --> 00:22:55.359
<v Speaker 1>Mike Tyson. I think I have a pretty good instinct

411
00:22:55.440 --> 00:22:57.559
<v Speaker 1>for it, but it's not what I practice. So in

412
00:22:57.640 --> 00:23:02.440
<v Speaker 1>terms of treason, no, treason is is very narrow. It's

413
00:23:02.480 --> 00:23:06.880
<v Speaker 1>the only crime defined by the Constitution, Article three, Section three.

414
00:23:07.160 --> 00:23:10.160
<v Speaker 1>Treason against the United States show consists only in levying

415
00:23:10.240 --> 00:23:13.839
<v Speaker 1>war against them or in adhering to their enemies giving

416
00:23:13.880 --> 00:23:15.759
<v Speaker 1>them aid and comfort. Now, the second part of that

417
00:23:15.920 --> 00:23:19.319
<v Speaker 1>is more broad, right, But what the case is, and

418
00:23:19.359 --> 00:23:22.680
<v Speaker 1>there've only been forty prosecutions over the years, what the

419
00:23:22.720 --> 00:23:25.079
<v Speaker 1>cases say is there has to be a specific intent

420
00:23:25.200 --> 00:23:29.079
<v Speaker 1>to betray your country, and then you get into the

421
00:23:29.160 --> 00:23:33.640
<v Speaker 1>different forms of aiding the enemy. So let's say that

422
00:23:33.720 --> 00:23:36.400
<v Speaker 1>what the President said and what I personally believe to

423
00:23:36.400 --> 00:23:38.880
<v Speaker 1>be true is true, and that Barack Obama is set

424
00:23:38.920 --> 00:23:42.519
<v Speaker 1>about to destroy the Trump presidency through this false allegation

425
00:23:43.160 --> 00:23:46.119
<v Speaker 1>of collusia with Russia. I don't think that meets the

426
00:23:46.119 --> 00:23:49.640
<v Speaker 1>definition of treason at that point because it wouldn't have

427
00:23:49.640 --> 00:23:53.240
<v Speaker 1>been done to aid a specific enemy. Now, somebody out

428
00:23:53.279 --> 00:23:57.160
<v Speaker 1>there who practices trees in law, you know, God love

429
00:23:57.200 --> 00:24:00.480
<v Speaker 1>you you're probably ready for a good meal, but but

430
00:24:00.519 --> 00:24:01.519
<v Speaker 1>I'd love to get your.

431
00:24:01.400 --> 00:24:01.880
<v Speaker 3>Take on it.

432
00:24:01.960 --> 00:24:02.160
<v Speaker 4>Now.

433
00:24:02.480 --> 00:24:08.240
<v Speaker 1>Listen, if President Obama did what I personally believe he did,

434
00:24:08.359 --> 00:24:10.319
<v Speaker 1>and what I'm saying I don't believe can be proven

435
00:24:10.440 --> 00:24:12.759
<v Speaker 1>and proven in a court of law. So I think

436
00:24:12.759 --> 00:24:16.119
<v Speaker 1>he's too smart to leave that trail. If he did

437
00:24:16.200 --> 00:24:19.359
<v Speaker 1>leave a trail and there were crimes that could be pursued,

438
00:24:19.519 --> 00:24:22.000
<v Speaker 1>I think it's more likely to be along the lines

439
00:24:22.039 --> 00:24:27.279
<v Speaker 1>of sedition, seditious conspiracy, And that's a different cat. That's

440
00:24:27.319 --> 00:24:31.680
<v Speaker 1>where you're talking about two or more conspiring to overthrow,

441
00:24:31.720 --> 00:24:34.720
<v Speaker 1>put down, or destroyed by force the US government or

442
00:24:34.720 --> 00:24:39.440
<v Speaker 1>prevented from carrying out its lawful functions. And so that

443
00:24:39.480 --> 00:24:45.000
<v Speaker 1>would seem to fit better the accusation against President Obama.

444
00:24:45.119 --> 00:24:47.720
<v Speaker 1>So if they had the proof, and if you ever

445
00:24:47.759 --> 00:24:50.519
<v Speaker 1>did see criminal charges, I think it would be more

446
00:24:50.559 --> 00:24:51.720
<v Speaker 1>in that category.

447
00:24:52.000 --> 00:24:53.240
<v Speaker 4>Certainly sub trifuge.

448
00:24:53.359 --> 00:24:55.759
<v Speaker 7>Dan And there has been a statement issued by the

449
00:24:55.839 --> 00:24:59.920
<v Speaker 7>Obama camp from Patrick Rodenbush, office of President Barack Obama.

450
00:25:00.079 --> 00:25:02.960
<v Speaker 4>I may it reads quote.

451
00:25:02.680 --> 00:25:05.599
<v Speaker 7>Out of respect for the office of the Presidency, our

452
00:25:05.640 --> 00:25:09.640
<v Speaker 7>office does not normally dignify the constant nonsense and misinformation

453
00:25:09.720 --> 00:25:11.839
<v Speaker 7>flowing out of this White House with a response.

454
00:25:11.960 --> 00:25:14.839
<v Speaker 4>But these claims are outrageous enough to merit one.

455
00:25:15.240 --> 00:25:19.200
<v Speaker 7>These bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction.

456
00:25:21.519 --> 00:25:23.759
<v Speaker 3>Do you think we'll see a lawsuit? I think we'll

457
00:25:23.759 --> 00:25:25.039
<v Speaker 3>see a definition suit.

458
00:25:25.160 --> 00:25:29.039
<v Speaker 7>Dan, wouldn't that bear out? If these are patently false?

459
00:25:29.039 --> 00:25:31.319
<v Speaker 7>They wouldn't just issue a statement, they'd have the lawsuit

460
00:25:31.319 --> 00:25:33.839
<v Speaker 7>to come along with it, as we've seen President Trump

461
00:25:33.839 --> 00:25:35.920
<v Speaker 7>do against ABC and CBS.

462
00:25:36.039 --> 00:25:39.880
<v Speaker 1>Yet knowing fairness, and I understand that that line of thought,

463
00:25:39.680 --> 00:25:43.799
<v Speaker 1>but in fairness which you always risk right when you're

464
00:25:43.839 --> 00:25:46.240
<v Speaker 1>the target of defamation. And I'm not saying Obama has

465
00:25:46.279 --> 00:25:50.519
<v Speaker 1>been defamed by Trump. My personal belief is that Obama

466
00:25:50.599 --> 00:25:55.039
<v Speaker 1>did engage in that type of behavior, but that there

467
00:25:55.079 --> 00:25:57.279
<v Speaker 1>won't be criminal charges and there won't be the evidence

468
00:25:57.359 --> 00:25:58.519
<v Speaker 1>to prove criminal charges.

469
00:25:58.599 --> 00:26:02.359
<v Speaker 3>Okay, now, Ryan, you know that the dilemma.

470
00:26:02.039 --> 00:26:06.599
<v Speaker 1>Always for somebody falsely accused is you know, if you sue.

471
00:26:06.400 --> 00:26:07.720
<v Speaker 3>You call more attention to it.

472
00:26:07.880 --> 00:26:09.680
<v Speaker 1>So I don't think it's fair to just sit back

473
00:26:09.680 --> 00:26:11.759
<v Speaker 1>here and say, well, somebody didn't file suits, So that's

474
00:26:11.759 --> 00:26:17.079
<v Speaker 1>an admission. But but listen, you know that Trump, now

475
00:26:17.119 --> 00:26:20.039
<v Speaker 1>he's right he was the hunted in the worst kind

476
00:26:20.079 --> 00:26:23.640
<v Speaker 1>of and the most unfair kind of way. Now he's

477
00:26:23.680 --> 00:26:26.079
<v Speaker 1>the hunter and he has an awful lot of resources

478
00:26:26.119 --> 00:26:30.079
<v Speaker 1>as the hunter right now. So if the proof is there,

479
00:26:30.799 --> 00:26:33.200
<v Speaker 1>if the proof is there, then his DOJ should be

480
00:26:33.200 --> 00:26:34.359
<v Speaker 1>able to bring those charges.

481
00:26:34.440 --> 00:26:35.759
<v Speaker 4>How did One thing I'd love.

482
00:26:35.680 --> 00:26:38.400
<v Speaker 1>To know from you and everybody is is would that

483
00:26:38.480 --> 00:26:41.039
<v Speaker 1>be good for this country? You know, my personal belief

484
00:26:41.160 --> 00:26:44.519
<v Speaker 1>is that, hey, you got to follow the facts. We

485
00:26:44.599 --> 00:26:47.519
<v Speaker 1>got to have one justice system, and if the proof

486
00:26:47.599 --> 00:26:49.440
<v Speaker 1>was there, you got to pursue that proof and bring

487
00:26:49.480 --> 00:26:50.119
<v Speaker 1>the charges.

488
00:26:50.200 --> 00:26:52.759
<v Speaker 3>But do you expect to see a prosecution?

489
00:26:53.480 --> 00:26:55.720
<v Speaker 7>I mean that'll depend on Pam bonding and whether there's

490
00:26:55.759 --> 00:26:58.640
<v Speaker 7>teeth in our Department of Justice. We saw, you know,

491
00:26:58.759 --> 00:27:01.920
<v Speaker 7>all these haphazard lawsuits being filed against Donald Trump by

492
00:27:01.920 --> 00:27:03.039
<v Speaker 7>Merrick Garland.

493
00:27:02.680 --> 00:27:06.119
<v Speaker 4>And Jack Smith and ridiculousness. This actually happened.

494
00:27:06.400 --> 00:27:09.200
<v Speaker 7>This is all a product of projection against Donald Trump,

495
00:27:09.480 --> 00:27:11.640
<v Speaker 7>and I would not hold it against him one bit.

496
00:27:11.799 --> 00:27:12.000
<v Speaker 2>Dan.

497
00:27:12.359 --> 00:27:15.319
<v Speaker 7>If Donald Trump fired back to send a message and

498
00:27:15.480 --> 00:27:18.279
<v Speaker 7>set a president that no president will be undermined in

499
00:27:18.359 --> 00:27:21.680
<v Speaker 7>this way by his predecessor, that is what happened here.

500
00:27:22.319 --> 00:27:24.440
<v Speaker 1>Well, Well, listen, I'll take it a step further. If

501
00:27:24.440 --> 00:27:28.880
<v Speaker 1>the proof is there, he has an absolute obligation to prosecute,

502
00:27:28.920 --> 00:27:31.640
<v Speaker 1>and if the proof is not there, he has an

503
00:27:31.680 --> 00:27:36.319
<v Speaker 1>obligation not to prosecute, even if he believes it's likely true.

504
00:27:36.559 --> 00:27:37.720
<v Speaker 3>I think it's that simple.

505
00:27:39.440 --> 00:27:41.400
<v Speaker 7>And we have a clip coming back Dan that I

506
00:27:41.480 --> 00:27:43.759
<v Speaker 7>just found that I thought aged very well for President

507
00:27:43.759 --> 00:27:47.279
<v Speaker 7>Trump and not so well for a certain reporter interviewing him.

508
00:27:47.319 --> 00:27:50.839
<v Speaker 3>Well, I cannot wait for that and the announcement.

509
00:27:50.920 --> 00:27:53.599
<v Speaker 1>I'm sure there's great suspense over this, especially at the

510
00:27:53.759 --> 00:27:54.359
<v Speaker 1>corner bar.

511
00:27:55.079 --> 00:27:57.279
<v Speaker 3>I'll put that in quotes. That was from Polis.

512
00:27:57.759 --> 00:28:02.480
<v Speaker 1>He has announced the results of the statewide survey over

513
00:28:02.519 --> 00:28:03.640
<v Speaker 1>his bridge to nowhere.

514
00:28:03.799 --> 00:28:05.160
<v Speaker 3>You're on the Dan Campler.

515
00:28:04.880 --> 00:28:14.039
<v Speaker 4>Show and now back to the Dan Kapla Show podcast.

516
00:28:15.279 --> 00:28:18.359
<v Speaker 6>The biggest scandal was when they spied on my campaign.

517
00:28:18.920 --> 00:28:21.799
<v Speaker 6>They spied in my campaign. There's no real evidence of that,

518
00:28:21.880 --> 00:28:25.559
<v Speaker 6>of course, there isn't all over the place. Leslie spied

519
00:28:25.559 --> 00:28:27.440
<v Speaker 6>on my campaign, and they got can.

520
00:28:27.160 --> 00:28:27.880
<v Speaker 5>I say something?

521
00:28:28.559 --> 00:28:32.279
<v Speaker 1>You know, this is sixty minutes and we can't put

522
00:28:32.359 --> 00:28:32.960
<v Speaker 1>on things.

523
00:28:32.960 --> 00:28:35.519
<v Speaker 3>We can't verify it because it's bad for Biden. We

524
00:28:35.559 --> 00:28:37.960
<v Speaker 3>can't things we can't verify Leslie.

525
00:28:38.039 --> 00:28:41.279
<v Speaker 5>They spy to my camp. We can's fine totally verify.

526
00:28:41.480 --> 00:28:44.160
<v Speaker 6>No, it's been to just go down and get the papers.

527
00:28:44.920 --> 00:28:47.759
<v Speaker 6>They spied on my campaign. They got caught. No, and

528
00:28:47.759 --> 00:28:50.400
<v Speaker 6>then they went much further than that, and they got caught.

529
00:28:50.759 --> 00:28:53.079
<v Speaker 6>And you will see that leslie and you know that,

530
00:28:53.119 --> 00:28:54.119
<v Speaker 6>but you just don't want to know.

531
00:28:54.240 --> 00:28:56.799
<v Speaker 5>As a matter of fact, I don't know that.

532
00:28:58.240 --> 00:29:02.160
<v Speaker 1>For the arrogance of the media. Right when the media

533
00:29:02.839 --> 00:29:05.559
<v Speaker 1>either knows it's wrong or should know that it's wrong,

534
00:29:05.599 --> 00:29:08.920
<v Speaker 1>I means it is amazing what Trump has been able

535
00:29:08.960 --> 00:29:10.400
<v Speaker 1>to accomplish.

536
00:29:09.759 --> 00:29:11.000
<v Speaker 3>Right in the face of all that.

537
00:29:11.319 --> 00:29:14.400
<v Speaker 1>And let me throw this question out there, and again,

538
00:29:14.519 --> 00:29:17.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't think. I don't know that we could find

539
00:29:17.200 --> 00:29:20.000
<v Speaker 1>anybody who's been more fair and balanced on Trump, praising

540
00:29:20.079 --> 00:29:22.319
<v Speaker 1>him when he deserves it, also criticize him when he

541
00:29:22.359 --> 00:29:25.119
<v Speaker 1>deserves it. But could there be Ryan, Can you think

542
00:29:25.160 --> 00:29:29.680
<v Speaker 1>of any president, any president in let's say our lifetime,

543
00:29:30.680 --> 00:29:35.640
<v Speaker 1>who could have stood up, endured overcome what Trump did.

544
00:29:36.759 --> 00:29:37.960
<v Speaker 4>No, not even close.

545
00:29:38.160 --> 00:29:39.440
<v Speaker 3>How about an American.

546
00:29:39.119 --> 00:29:45.000
<v Speaker 7>History Maybe George Washington, I mean he defeated the British Empire.

547
00:29:45.319 --> 00:29:48.599
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, No, I think Washington could do it. I think

548
00:29:48.680 --> 00:29:53.200
<v Speaker 1>Lincoln could do it. I think Teddy Roosevelt could do it.

549
00:29:53.200 --> 00:29:58.480
<v Speaker 1>It's a short list. I think FDR could do it.

550
00:29:58.759 --> 00:30:06.240
<v Speaker 1>Maybe JFK. Maybe Reagan, maybe that maybe the line right there.

551
00:30:06.519 --> 00:30:07.079
<v Speaker 3>Maybe.

552
00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:12.240
<v Speaker 1>I mean yeah, very very few presidents in American history

553
00:30:12.279 --> 00:30:14.799
<v Speaker 1>could have and none of them, none of the other

554
00:30:14.880 --> 00:30:18.799
<v Speaker 1>greats that we just mentioned, had ever faced anything like

555
00:30:18.839 --> 00:30:21.160
<v Speaker 1>this because they didn't live in an era when those

556
00:30:21.240 --> 00:30:26.799
<v Speaker 1>kind of technological weapons were available. Technological and media weaponry

557
00:30:26.880 --> 00:30:30.319
<v Speaker 1>was available to try to take down a president personally

558
00:30:31.119 --> 00:30:35.640
<v Speaker 1>and professionally. So it really is astounding that he was

559
00:30:35.680 --> 00:30:38.599
<v Speaker 1>able to do that, and I do think it's launched

560
00:30:38.680 --> 00:30:44.039
<v Speaker 1>him into this second term with more credibility, more street cred,

561
00:30:44.079 --> 00:30:48.960
<v Speaker 1>more political cred, more political capital, a more deterrent effect

562
00:30:49.000 --> 00:30:53.400
<v Speaker 1>on enemies than maybe any president in our lifetime, just

563
00:30:53.440 --> 00:30:54.759
<v Speaker 1>because of everything he overcame.

564
00:30:54.880 --> 00:30:57.200
<v Speaker 7>I'm thinking of two instances. One we just heard with

565
00:30:57.279 --> 00:31:00.319
<v Speaker 7>Leslie Stall and you mentioned her arrogance. This is sixty minutes, sweet,

566
00:31:00.319 --> 00:31:02.480
<v Speaker 7>don't report. Well, we can't verify he didn't bother to

567
00:31:02.519 --> 00:31:06.519
<v Speaker 7>do the investigative journalism it required to report on it, Leslie.

568
00:31:06.559 --> 00:31:08.920
<v Speaker 4>And then prior to that, Dan the whole.

569
00:31:08.799 --> 00:31:11.880
<v Speaker 7>Charlottesville hoax and Donald Trumps standing up there and I've

570
00:31:11.920 --> 00:31:14.400
<v Speaker 7>got the sound he's going back and forth with Jim

571
00:31:14.400 --> 00:31:17.319
<v Speaker 7>Acosta CNN, and he said, you didn't say there were

572
00:31:17.440 --> 00:31:19.480
<v Speaker 7>very fine people on both sides. He said there were

573
00:31:19.480 --> 00:31:22.000
<v Speaker 7>some troublemakers on both sides, and there were good people

574
00:31:22.039 --> 00:31:24.680
<v Speaker 7>on both sides. And he gave that in context. And

575
00:31:24.720 --> 00:31:28.079
<v Speaker 7>then Acosta was asking him about tearing down statues.

576
00:31:28.119 --> 00:31:30.799
<v Speaker 4>He goes, you like Thomas Jefferson, you like George Washington.

577
00:31:30.960 --> 00:31:32.000
<v Speaker 4>They're going to come from them.

578
00:31:31.920 --> 00:31:34.920
<v Speaker 7>Next, and a Costa admitted that Jefferson was his favorite president.

579
00:31:35.000 --> 00:31:39.160
<v Speaker 7>Guess what happened? They were tearing down Jefferson and Washington memorials.

580
00:31:39.799 --> 00:31:42.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but think about I mean, and this is part

581
00:31:42.079 --> 00:31:44.599
<v Speaker 1>of the great contribution Trump has made to the future

582
00:31:44.640 --> 00:31:48.119
<v Speaker 1>of the nation, and that is that the media has

583
00:31:48.160 --> 00:31:54.599
<v Speaker 1>destroyed itself in the course of abandoning all ethics, honesty, etc.

584
00:31:55.000 --> 00:31:59.599
<v Speaker 1>To destroy Trump. The media destroyed itself. And there are

585
00:31:59.599 --> 00:32:02.759
<v Speaker 1>still some really, really talented and good people in it,

586
00:32:02.880 --> 00:32:06.519
<v Speaker 1>sprinkled throughout the media, but as an entity right now,

587
00:32:07.279 --> 00:32:11.319
<v Speaker 1>I mean, what's the latest polling on media versus What

588
00:32:11.640 --> 00:32:18.000
<v Speaker 1>do you think the least respected job category is in America?

589
00:32:18.079 --> 00:32:19.920
<v Speaker 4>I think it's the two that you and I do, Dan.

590
00:32:20.079 --> 00:32:23.559
<v Speaker 7>I think it's geralists and lawyers, Okay, America.

591
00:32:23.960 --> 00:32:25.400
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, we'd have to look it up. I

592
00:32:25.400 --> 00:32:28.440
<v Speaker 3>know people always used car salesman minimums. Cars are getting

593
00:32:28.440 --> 00:32:29.519
<v Speaker 3>better and better, that's right.

594
00:32:29.559 --> 00:32:33.680
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, but my point is media now is probably

595
00:32:33.759 --> 00:32:35.079
<v Speaker 1>below all of us.

596
00:32:35.559 --> 00:32:39.279
<v Speaker 7>I'll say this, Dan, Donald Trump certainly outpolls both the

597
00:32:39.319 --> 00:32:42.759
<v Speaker 7>media mainstream and how people feel about them favorable or unfavorable.

598
00:32:42.880 --> 00:32:44.160
<v Speaker 4>And congressional Democrats.

599
00:32:44.920 --> 00:32:47.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, but I'm just talking about long term in this country.

600
00:32:47.680 --> 00:32:51.759
<v Speaker 1>Media really buried itself and hopefully it will come back

601
00:32:51.799 --> 00:32:55.440
<v Speaker 1>someday in an incredible, honest form, But it really did

602
00:32:55.519 --> 00:33:00.480
<v Speaker 1>bury itself. And how about let's go with thirty five? Please,

603
00:33:00.680 --> 00:33:06.000
<v Speaker 1>just to remind people, Russia hacking the election to elect Trump?

604
00:33:06.079 --> 00:33:07.000
<v Speaker 4>What is the end of our box?

605
00:33:07.160 --> 00:33:09.559
<v Speaker 7>Every votes were definitely affected, But you're Russia hacked the

606
00:33:09.599 --> 00:33:11.000
<v Speaker 7>election to tilted to mister Trump.

607
00:33:11.039 --> 00:33:14.240
<v Speaker 4>The Russians definitively hacked the election.

608
00:33:14.440 --> 00:33:17.480
<v Speaker 5>Russia did hack the election, no doubt.

609
00:33:17.640 --> 00:33:21.440
<v Speaker 4>The Russians hacked the election. Yes, Russia hacked the elections.

610
00:33:21.519 --> 00:33:22.839
<v Speaker 4>Packed Russia hacked the election.

611
00:33:23.079 --> 00:33:27.039
<v Speaker 1>President elect Donald Trump still not sounding convinced that Russia

612
00:33:27.119 --> 00:33:29.359
<v Speaker 1>hacked the election. The President does not want to come

613
00:33:29.359 --> 00:33:31.480
<v Speaker 1>to terms with the fact that the Russians hacked the election.

614
00:33:31.559 --> 00:33:35.799
<v Speaker 1>President Trump says he still wonders if if the Russians

615
00:33:36.079 --> 00:33:37.240
<v Speaker 1>packed the election, if.

616
00:33:37.160 --> 00:33:39.720
<v Speaker 7>You can get them to accept that Russia hacked the election,

617
00:33:40.039 --> 00:33:41.000
<v Speaker 7>see if you can get them to.

618
00:33:40.960 --> 00:33:42.400
<v Speaker 4>Accept who won the Civil Wars.

619
00:33:42.440 --> 00:33:44.960
<v Speaker 1>If he admits it, it casts a shadow on his

620
00:33:45.039 --> 00:33:46.319
<v Speaker 1>victory over Hillary Clinton.

621
00:33:46.400 --> 00:33:47.799
<v Speaker 4>Russia hacked the election.

622
00:33:48.039 --> 00:33:49.720
<v Speaker 3>Russia hacked the election.

623
00:33:49.920 --> 00:33:53.559
<v Speaker 4>Russia hacked the election. Russia hacked the election. Let's be clear,

624
00:33:53.680 --> 00:33:54.680
<v Speaker 4>Russia hacked the election.

625
00:33:54.880 --> 00:33:55.920
<v Speaker 5>Definitively.

626
00:33:56.680 --> 00:34:00.960
<v Speaker 4>Russia hacked the election, and Russia is doing it again

627
00:34:01.039 --> 00:34:03.400
<v Speaker 4>now election related cyber hacking.

628
00:34:03.160 --> 00:34:06.559
<v Speaker 3>Cyber hacking of US elections, cyber hacking of the election.

629
00:34:06.839 --> 00:34:10.360
<v Speaker 4>Russia was cyber hacking the election. Russia was cyber hacking.

630
00:34:10.679 --> 00:34:12.559
<v Speaker 3>Let me off, hacks me off.

631
00:34:12.599 --> 00:34:15.199
<v Speaker 1>But we need to be reminded of that, right And

632
00:34:15.320 --> 00:34:17.679
<v Speaker 1>so if you just joined us, thank you. What we're

633
00:34:17.679 --> 00:34:20.719
<v Speaker 1>talking about is President laid down the mark today. We'll

634
00:34:20.719 --> 00:34:23.519
<v Speaker 1>play it again in the next segment. Said Obama committed treason.

635
00:34:24.159 --> 00:34:26.440
<v Speaker 1>And does that mean we're soon going to see charges

636
00:34:26.480 --> 00:34:29.119
<v Speaker 1>from DJ If we see any charges, which I doubt

637
00:34:29.480 --> 00:34:31.880
<v Speaker 1>They're not going to be charges of treason. I broke

638
00:34:31.920 --> 00:34:34.800
<v Speaker 1>that down and why it's virtually impossible to prove. And

639
00:34:35.800 --> 00:34:39.000
<v Speaker 1>if Obama is guilty as charged here, you know, or

640
00:34:39.039 --> 00:34:41.679
<v Speaker 1>as charged in the court of public opinion, it wouldn't

641
00:34:41.679 --> 00:34:43.599
<v Speaker 1>be a trees in charge. It to be some other

642
00:34:43.719 --> 00:34:46.960
<v Speaker 1>kind of seditious conspiracy charge. I don't expect to see

643
00:34:46.960 --> 00:34:51.360
<v Speaker 1>those criminal charges. I do believe that President Obama have

644
00:34:51.559 --> 00:34:55.559
<v Speaker 1>used as power to try to launch and aid this

645
00:34:55.719 --> 00:35:00.079
<v Speaker 1>coup against Trump. I don't believe that the proof is

646
00:35:00.079 --> 00:35:02.800
<v Speaker 1>going to be there sufficient to bring and convict on

647
00:35:02.880 --> 00:35:06.079
<v Speaker 1>criminal charges. So we'll continue that into the five o'clock

648
00:35:06.079 --> 00:35:08.239
<v Speaker 1>hour and much more. Three all three, someone, three eight,

649
00:35:08.280 --> 00:35:10.480
<v Speaker 1>two five five. You're on the Dan Kapla Show.
