<v Speaker 1>This is Dan Caplis and welcome to today's online podcast

5
00:00:11.679 --> 00:00:15.960
<v Speaker 1>single day on your favorite podcast platform. ABC News has

6
00:00:16.039 --> 00:00:20.879
<v Speaker 1>become so profoundly dishonest, and unfortunately we have ABC News

7
00:00:20.920 --> 00:00:22.920
<v Speaker 1>at the top of each hour here and then we

8
00:00:23.039 --> 00:00:27.039
<v Speaker 1>have our award winning newsroom and our award winning newsroom

9
00:00:27.079 --> 00:00:29.719
<v Speaker 1>the second News cast. You can trust everything they say.

10
00:00:29.800 --> 00:00:33.200
<v Speaker 1>ABC News just garbage. Did you hear them at the

11
00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:36.520
<v Speaker 1>top of the hour where they praise the hair of

12
00:00:36.520 --> 00:00:39.520
<v Speaker 1>stuff and then said Trump will be attending a black

13
00:00:39.679 --> 00:00:42.560
<v Speaker 1>tie charity dinner tonight, trying to make them sound like

14
00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:45.679
<v Speaker 1>some kind of loafer, because that's Harris's new theme of

15
00:00:45.719 --> 00:00:48.840
<v Speaker 1>the day, right, Oh? Is he okay? Kind of garbage?

16
00:00:49.200 --> 00:00:53.520
<v Speaker 1>And wait a second, it's the al Smith dinner that

17
00:00:53.600 --> 00:00:58.039
<v Speaker 1>she is ducking because she does not have the intellectual

18
00:00:58.079 --> 00:01:01.640
<v Speaker 1>capacity to handle the event. And if you can't handle

19
00:01:01.679 --> 00:01:05.359
<v Speaker 1>the l Smith dinner, which the candidates from both parties

20
00:01:05.560 --> 00:01:08.680
<v Speaker 1>have gone to for as long as anybody can remember,

21
00:01:08.760 --> 00:01:12.719
<v Speaker 1>if you can't handle that dinner, you can't handle being precedent.

22
00:01:12.879 --> 00:01:16.480
<v Speaker 1>So just such dishonesty from ABC. Hey, let's go to

23
00:01:16.519 --> 00:01:19.359
<v Speaker 1>our friend Dick Wadhams kind enough to join us, Richard,

24
00:01:19.359 --> 00:01:21.000
<v Speaker 1>Welcome back to the Dan Kapla Show.

25
00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:23.359
<v Speaker 2>Hey Dan, nice to be with you.

26
00:01:23.560 --> 00:01:24.719
<v Speaker 3>Well, thank you, my friend.

27
00:01:24.959 --> 00:01:26.920
<v Speaker 1>One thing I don't think you and I have ever

28
00:01:27.000 --> 00:01:30.280
<v Speaker 1>talked about is ranked choice voting. I've never really paid

29
00:01:30.359 --> 00:01:32.879
<v Speaker 1>much attention to it. I know it's on the ballot

30
00:01:32.920 --> 00:01:35.719
<v Speaker 1>this time around, so I'm starting to dial in, and

31
00:01:35.760 --> 00:01:39.079
<v Speaker 1>then somebody mentioned to me that you are actually supporting it,

32
00:01:39.120 --> 00:01:41.560
<v Speaker 1>So I thought I'd better get you on and hear

33
00:01:41.560 --> 00:01:42.319
<v Speaker 1>what it's all about.

34
00:01:44.239 --> 00:01:46.280
<v Speaker 2>Well, you bet, Dan, and I did not come to

35
00:01:46.439 --> 00:01:50.680
<v Speaker 2>this decision to support Proposition one thirty one, which is

36
00:01:50.719 --> 00:01:54.239
<v Speaker 2>the open primary ranked choice voting proposal on the ballot

37
00:01:54.319 --> 00:01:58.480
<v Speaker 2>on November fifth. But I did not make this decision

38
00:01:58.560 --> 00:02:03.400
<v Speaker 2>lightly or quickly. I have watched the Colorado electorate change

39
00:02:03.480 --> 00:02:07.760
<v Speaker 2>dramatically in the last several years. Yeah, for decades then,

40
00:02:07.959 --> 00:02:12.599
<v Speaker 2>Colorado was accurately described as a third third Republican, that

41
00:02:12.639 --> 00:02:17.840
<v Speaker 2>third Democrats, third unaffiliated. Sometimes there'd be a plurality of Republicans,

42
00:02:17.840 --> 00:02:20.400
<v Speaker 2>other time it's Democrats. Whatever, But it was essentially a

43
00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:23.599
<v Speaker 2>third to third to third. It was a very competitive process.

44
00:02:23.960 --> 00:02:27.439
<v Speaker 2>Two thirds of the electorate was registered was one of

45
00:02:27.479 --> 00:02:30.520
<v Speaker 2>the two political parties, and that's kind of where things stood.

46
00:02:31.120 --> 00:02:36.400
<v Speaker 2>But ever since twenty ten, twenty eleven, eight hundred thousand

47
00:02:36.400 --> 00:02:40.759
<v Speaker 2>people have moved to Colorado and the electorate has changed dramatically.

48
00:02:41.599 --> 00:02:46.599
<v Speaker 2>As of October first, forty six point eight percent of

49
00:02:46.680 --> 00:02:51.319
<v Speaker 2>the Colorado electorate or I had registered unaffiliated, twenty six

50
00:02:51.400 --> 00:02:56.919
<v Speaker 2>percent are are Democratic, and the twenty two twenty three

51
00:02:56.919 --> 00:03:01.360
<v Speaker 2>percent of Republicans. This is a dramatic change in the electorate.

52
00:03:02.159 --> 00:03:05.680
<v Speaker 2>Voters are saying, we don't like either political party, and

53
00:03:05.759 --> 00:03:07.800
<v Speaker 2>I think that's something we need to pay attention to.

54
00:03:09.080 --> 00:03:12.400
<v Speaker 2>And so, and I've also watched the two political parties

55
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:16.439
<v Speaker 2>move to their extrains. I mean, the Democrats are increasingly

56
00:03:16.479 --> 00:03:21.800
<v Speaker 2>influenced by Democratic socialists and the Republican Party unfortunately, is dominated,

57
00:03:21.879 --> 00:03:25.719
<v Speaker 2>especially in the state's Central Committee, by those who constantly

58
00:03:25.759 --> 00:03:31.719
<v Speaker 2>propound stolen election conspiracy theories. And so I think that

59
00:03:31.719 --> 00:03:34.479
<v Speaker 2>that the process needs to be shaken up. I think

60
00:03:34.479 --> 00:03:39.000
<v Speaker 2>it needs to be opened up. And remember, these primaries

61
00:03:39.120 --> 00:03:43.879
<v Speaker 2>are our taxpayer finance, and to restrict people from voting

62
00:03:43.879 --> 00:03:47.280
<v Speaker 2>in primaries like we have to day. I think is

63
00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:50.520
<v Speaker 2>wrong and I've never really had thought about that before,

64
00:03:50.960 --> 00:03:54.319
<v Speaker 2>but the fact is they are taxpayer financed. And under

65
00:03:55.120 --> 00:03:58.080
<v Speaker 2>the proposition one thirty one, we would get rid of

66
00:03:58.120 --> 00:04:00.960
<v Speaker 2>the Republican and Democratic primary. Is we would have one

67
00:04:01.080 --> 00:04:07.680
<v Speaker 2>open primary where every Democrat, every Republican, every Libertarian, every vegetarian,

68
00:04:07.840 --> 00:04:11.719
<v Speaker 2>every springing party, whatever, would run in one open primary,

69
00:04:12.159 --> 00:04:16.480
<v Speaker 2>and every voter would be able to vote in every primary,

70
00:04:16.800 --> 00:04:20.360
<v Speaker 2>open primary for every election. It would be totally open.

71
00:04:21.720 --> 00:04:26.279
<v Speaker 2>The top four finishers in each election would go on

72
00:04:26.360 --> 00:04:28.560
<v Speaker 2>to the general election, and that would be decided by

73
00:04:28.639 --> 00:04:32.600
<v Speaker 2>ranked choice voting, and the voters would rank their choices

74
00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:34.879
<v Speaker 2>one through four, or they could just vote for one

75
00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:37.480
<v Speaker 2>or two or three, but they have they can rank

76
00:04:37.560 --> 00:04:42.040
<v Speaker 2>them up to four and then the top. If somebody

77
00:04:42.040 --> 00:04:45.800
<v Speaker 2>gets fifty percent plus one first the rankings, then they

78
00:04:45.879 --> 00:04:49.360
<v Speaker 2>win the election. If that doesn't happen, the number four

79
00:04:49.439 --> 00:04:52.240
<v Speaker 2>candidate is dropped off and the number and their second

80
00:04:52.319 --> 00:04:56.120
<v Speaker 2>choice votes are reallocated, and then and that happens until

81
00:04:56.120 --> 00:04:59.879
<v Speaker 2>we have a majority winner. Now it is. It will

82
00:04:59.920 --> 00:05:01.920
<v Speaker 2>be a big change in the electorate. I think the

83
00:05:02.000 --> 00:05:06.040
<v Speaker 2>voters are voters are smart, they will pick up on this,

84
00:05:06.160 --> 00:05:08.600
<v Speaker 2>and they will like the fact that they have so

85
00:05:08.680 --> 00:05:13.000
<v Speaker 2>much many more choices in elections than they do right now.

86
00:05:14.120 --> 00:05:18.319
<v Speaker 1>Dick wadhams our guests, what has the practical effect of

87
00:05:18.360 --> 00:05:20.800
<v Speaker 1>this been across the country. I've always had the impression

88
00:05:21.480 --> 00:05:24.519
<v Speaker 1>that it works against Republicans, But I know you've worked

89
00:05:24.519 --> 00:05:28.560
<v Speaker 1>your entire adult life to get Republicans elected. So what's

90
00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:30.079
<v Speaker 1>been the experience with this.

91
00:05:31.639 --> 00:05:34.240
<v Speaker 2>Well, I got to tell you. First of all, I'll

92
00:05:34.279 --> 00:05:39.399
<v Speaker 2>mention that you can't get any more. The Republican Party

93
00:05:39.399 --> 00:05:42.839
<v Speaker 2>cannot be any more downtrodden than it is right now

94
00:05:43.079 --> 00:05:46.240
<v Speaker 2>under the present system. But we have been annihilated in

95
00:05:46.279 --> 00:05:50.759
<v Speaker 2>the last three election cycles eighteen, twenty and twenty two.

96
00:05:50.920 --> 00:05:53.399
<v Speaker 2>So it's not like the present system is really supporting

97
00:05:53.759 --> 00:05:59.240
<v Speaker 2>Republican candidates. There are a lot of reasons for that,

98
00:05:56.759 --> 00:06:01.959
<v Speaker 2>but that's just the fact for the last three election cycles.

99
00:06:02.279 --> 00:06:06.160
<v Speaker 2>In terms of other states, California has a version of this.

100
00:06:06.319 --> 00:06:09.120
<v Speaker 2>They have one open primary, the top two go into

101
00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:12.439
<v Speaker 2>the general election, and then there's a runoff in the

102
00:06:12.439 --> 00:06:15.879
<v Speaker 2>general election. Alaska has it right now, and I know

103
00:06:16.199 --> 00:06:18.560
<v Speaker 2>and they use it in twenty twenty two. I know

104
00:06:18.600 --> 00:06:20.639
<v Speaker 2>there's a There are a lot of people who think, oh,

105
00:06:20.920 --> 00:06:25.920
<v Speaker 2>it's it resulted in a Democratic congresswoman from Alaska and

106
00:06:25.959 --> 00:06:28.759
<v Speaker 2>a state that tilt's Republican, But there was a reason

107
00:06:28.839 --> 00:06:37.560
<v Speaker 2>for that. The fact is that that the Republican the

108
00:06:37.920 --> 00:06:40.680
<v Speaker 2>republic One of the Republican candidates was the vice presidential

109
00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:46.639
<v Speaker 2>nominee under John McCain, and she had tremendously high negatives

110
00:06:47.079 --> 00:06:49.279
<v Speaker 2>and so there was a there was a move to

111
00:06:49.439 --> 00:06:53.160
<v Speaker 2>for second votes to go to the to the Democratic candidate.

112
00:06:54.360 --> 00:06:59.560
<v Speaker 2>But think about what happened in Alaska. Van a conservative

113
00:06:59.600 --> 00:07:04.079
<v Speaker 2>Republican was elected governor, a moderate Republican incumbent US senator

114
00:07:04.199 --> 00:07:08.360
<v Speaker 2>was re elected for the US Senate, and then I

115
00:07:08.439 --> 00:07:11.240
<v Speaker 2>would consider her a left of senator Democrat was elected

116
00:07:11.240 --> 00:07:15.519
<v Speaker 2>to Congress. I think the system worked. The reality, too,

117
00:07:15.680 --> 00:07:18.680
<v Speaker 2>is is that there is something on the Alaska ballot

118
00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:22.720
<v Speaker 2>to repeal rank choice voting, open primary rank choice voting.

119
00:07:23.000 --> 00:07:26.279
<v Speaker 2>That is on the ballot in Alaska in November. And

120
00:07:26.879 --> 00:07:29.519
<v Speaker 2>I think that's a good thing because that will so

121
00:07:29.720 --> 00:07:33.399
<v Speaker 2>either the process will be rejected or it will be vindicated,

122
00:07:33.879 --> 00:07:37.160
<v Speaker 2>and then I think the argument will stop at that point.

123
00:07:37.519 --> 00:07:39.759
<v Speaker 2>So we'll see what happens in November. On, that's a

124
00:07:39.800 --> 00:07:41.480
<v Speaker 2>repeal effort, Dickon.

125
00:07:41.560 --> 00:07:44.839
<v Speaker 1>In the last couple of minutes we have together, how

126
00:07:44.879 --> 00:07:48.079
<v Speaker 1>do you see this plane out for Republicans in Colorado

127
00:07:48.120 --> 00:07:49.600
<v Speaker 1>given the current scenario.

128
00:07:51.040 --> 00:07:54.319
<v Speaker 2>I think it will. It will force Republican candidates to

129
00:07:54.399 --> 00:07:57.199
<v Speaker 2>think more about winning a general election than trying to

130
00:07:57.199 --> 00:08:00.000
<v Speaker 2>play to the party's extreme wing. And I think that's

131
00:08:00.040 --> 00:08:02.079
<v Speaker 2>will be the ultimate thing. And let me mention one time,

132
00:08:02.160 --> 00:08:08.759
<v Speaker 2>one specific case of rank choice voting. Virginia confers great latitude.

133
00:08:09.240 --> 00:08:13.040
<v Speaker 2>The canonate to parties to determine how they nominate candidates.

134
00:08:13.160 --> 00:08:17.120
<v Speaker 2>The parties pay for their for their nomination processes in Virginia,

135
00:08:17.199 --> 00:08:20.639
<v Speaker 2>not's the tax payers. The Virginia Republican Party in twenty

136
00:08:20.680 --> 00:08:23.680
<v Speaker 2>twenty one decided to go with rank choice voting and

137
00:08:23.720 --> 00:08:26.959
<v Speaker 2>their Republican primary for governor. Now have they not done that?

138
00:08:27.079 --> 00:08:27.240
<v Speaker 4>Dan?

139
00:08:27.439 --> 00:08:30.519
<v Speaker 2>What I'm told by Virginia Republicans is that a state

140
00:08:30.639 --> 00:08:35.840
<v Speaker 2>senator who in twenty twenty would have been nominated and

141
00:08:36.240 --> 00:08:39.120
<v Speaker 2>in twenty twenty, the day after the election, she called

142
00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:41.960
<v Speaker 2>for Donald Trump to void the results of the election

143
00:08:42.320 --> 00:08:44.679
<v Speaker 2>and to declare martial law. That would have been the

144
00:08:44.720 --> 00:08:50.240
<v Speaker 2>Republican nominee without rank choice voting as it was. Glenn Youngkin,

145
00:08:50.320 --> 00:08:53.320
<v Speaker 2>a successful businessman, was the nominee. He went on to

146
00:08:53.399 --> 00:08:56.080
<v Speaker 2>upset a former Democratic governor, and he has been an

147
00:08:56.120 --> 00:08:58.480
<v Speaker 2>outstanding governor of Virginia. So that is one of the

148
00:08:58.519 --> 00:09:02.320
<v Speaker 2>practical results of choice vooting that we have in front

149
00:09:02.360 --> 00:09:03.960
<v Speaker 2>of the Virginia Well.

150
00:09:03.879 --> 00:09:07.200
<v Speaker 1>I appreciate you popping on. It's remarkable to me that

151
00:09:07.240 --> 00:09:09.120
<v Speaker 1>I've never paid more attention to this. I'm going to

152
00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:11.360
<v Speaker 1>zero in on it now and we'll get some guests

153
00:09:11.799 --> 00:09:14.360
<v Speaker 1>and on the other side as well. But let's follow

154
00:09:14.440 --> 00:09:15.879
<v Speaker 1>up on this before election day.

155
00:09:16.519 --> 00:09:17.919
<v Speaker 2>You bet you bet that many.

156
00:09:18.480 --> 00:09:22.480
<v Speaker 3>Thank you appreciate the time. Thank you. That is Dick

157
00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:23.240
<v Speaker 3>Wadams on that.

158
00:09:23.440 --> 00:09:26.720
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I'm anxious to get a conversation going on this.

159
00:09:26.799 --> 00:09:28.639
<v Speaker 1>I want to be a little more intelligent about it

160
00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:32.080
<v Speaker 1>before we do. So I'm going to start reading some stuff.

161
00:09:32.480 --> 00:09:34.519
<v Speaker 1>I know that you were telling me Ryan, I know

162
00:09:34.600 --> 00:09:36.960
<v Speaker 1>after this break, but you were telling me that Ross

163
00:09:37.000 --> 00:09:41.039
<v Speaker 1>Kaminsky and Mandy Connell I knew the last name, but

164
00:09:41.080 --> 00:09:43.600
<v Speaker 1>everything he knows that she's like Pelly right, yeah, it's

165
00:09:43.679 --> 00:09:47.879
<v Speaker 1>just Mandy. Yeah, but that they're supporting it.

166
00:09:48.080 --> 00:09:50.240
<v Speaker 3>They are, which surprised me initially.

167
00:09:50.279 --> 00:09:53.919
<v Speaker 1>Because my impression has always been obviously superficial that you

168
00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:55.679
<v Speaker 1>know that it hurt Republicans.

169
00:09:55.799 --> 00:09:57.759
<v Speaker 3>But I'm saying we want to do a deeper.

170
00:09:57.519 --> 00:09:58.679
<v Speaker 5>Dive real quick too.

171
00:09:58.879 --> 00:09:59.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

172
00:09:59.200 --> 00:10:01.840
<v Speaker 6>I was texting back and forth with the most recent

173
00:10:01.960 --> 00:10:04.919
<v Speaker 6>chair of the Republican Party, Christy Burton Brown, and she,

174
00:10:05.360 --> 00:10:07.080
<v Speaker 6>like me, is against it.

175
00:10:08.000 --> 00:10:08.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

176
00:10:08.279 --> 00:10:11.519
<v Speaker 1>No, let's have this conversation. Yeah, let's have the conversation.

177
00:10:12.320 --> 00:10:15.639
<v Speaker 1>It sounded like Dick was paraphrasing Trump to a certain point. Hey,

178
00:10:15.639 --> 00:10:16.799
<v Speaker 1>what the hell do you have to lose? Right?

179
00:10:16.840 --> 00:10:18.200
<v Speaker 3>Given up? Bad things are for.

180
00:10:18.159 --> 00:10:21.279
<v Speaker 1>The gup in Colorado. But no, I'm anxious to dig in. Hey,

181
00:10:21.279 --> 00:10:23.159
<v Speaker 1>when we come back, lots of stuff that'll put a

182
00:10:23.200 --> 00:10:25.120
<v Speaker 1>smile on your face if, like me, you want to

183
00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:27.960
<v Speaker 1>see Trump have a second term. Just a lot of

184
00:10:28.000 --> 00:10:32.639
<v Speaker 1>good polling and polling trends there. And then one of

185
00:10:32.639 --> 00:10:37.639
<v Speaker 1>the most evil people in modern history killed today by

186
00:10:37.639 --> 00:10:40.480
<v Speaker 1>the great Israeli military. And we'll come back and talk

187
00:10:40.480 --> 00:10:43.639
<v Speaker 1>about as a provable practical matter that there's no inference

188
00:10:43.679 --> 00:10:48.200
<v Speaker 1>involved here. If Kamala Harris had had her way, Sinwar

189
00:10:48.440 --> 00:10:50.639
<v Speaker 1>would still be alive. And not only that, have a

190
00:10:50.720 --> 00:10:54.080
<v Speaker 1>fully protected enclave. You're on the DAN Kapla Show.

191
00:10:55.720 --> 00:10:58.120
<v Speaker 5>And now back to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.

192
00:10:58.799 --> 00:11:04.000
<v Speaker 7>The Catholic vote is very important. Kama Harrison really doesn't

193
00:11:04.159 --> 00:11:08.320
<v Speaker 7>seem to be considering it. She is a very sort

194
00:11:08.360 --> 00:11:12.840
<v Speaker 7>of mixed record in the Senate as the turn in

195
00:11:12.960 --> 00:11:18.440
<v Speaker 7>general on religious things. And in Pennsylvania, Catholics are, according

196
00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:22.000
<v Speaker 7>to last exit pols, twenty thirty percent of the population.

197
00:11:22.519 --> 00:11:26.679
<v Speaker 7>So in a state that's one percent, that's an important constituency.

198
00:11:27.279 --> 00:11:30.879
<v Speaker 1>Amen And historically, who ever wins the Catholic vote normally

199
00:11:30.919 --> 00:11:33.399
<v Speaker 1>wins the presidency. Which is not to elevate that among

200
00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:36.960
<v Speaker 1>any other vote or anything like that, but simply to

201
00:11:37.080 --> 00:11:40.519
<v Speaker 1>make the point that there's a certain level of cohesion

202
00:11:40.679 --> 00:11:44.000
<v Speaker 1>in the Catholic community. It's obviously not a monolith, right,

203
00:11:44.440 --> 00:11:47.600
<v Speaker 1>but there's a certain level of cohesion, and when the

204
00:11:47.639 --> 00:11:51.240
<v Speaker 1>Catholic vote goes one way, that's normally how the presidency

205
00:11:51.480 --> 00:11:56.840
<v Speaker 1>is decided. And here I believe that there's every reason,

206
00:11:57.320 --> 00:11:59.759
<v Speaker 1>every reason to be confident that not only is Trump

207
00:11:59.759 --> 00:12:01.600
<v Speaker 1>going to win the Catholic vote, but he's going to

208
00:12:01.639 --> 00:12:04.799
<v Speaker 1>win it resoundingly. And one of the reasons for that,

209
00:12:04.879 --> 00:12:09.639
<v Speaker 1>obviously is that Kamala Harris has gone to such a preposterous, bizarre,

210
00:12:09.840 --> 00:12:14.000
<v Speaker 1>slavish extreme in worshiping abortion on demand to the moment

211
00:12:14.080 --> 00:12:18.200
<v Speaker 1>that babies delivered first vp' to ever visit an abortion clinic,

212
00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:22.519
<v Speaker 1>for example. But you go beyond that, she's been openly hostile,

213
00:12:22.639 --> 00:12:25.919
<v Speaker 1>openly hostile as a senator to Catholics. I mean, you

214
00:12:25.960 --> 00:12:28.879
<v Speaker 1>have had judicial nominees, and you don't get to that

215
00:12:28.919 --> 00:12:32.279
<v Speaker 1>point of being a judicial nominee normally unless you've really

216
00:12:32.279 --> 00:12:36.399
<v Speaker 1>accomplished something right, So highly qualified judicial nominees, all of

217
00:12:36.399 --> 00:12:38.919
<v Speaker 1>them by the way, ended up on the bench approved

218
00:12:38.919 --> 00:12:44.120
<v Speaker 1>by the Senate who she questioned on their membership in

219
00:12:44.240 --> 00:12:47.440
<v Speaker 1>Knights of Columbus. And if you don't know about Catholics

220
00:12:47.480 --> 00:12:50.519
<v Speaker 1>Knights that this is one of the great service organizations

221
00:12:50.600 --> 00:12:53.799
<v Speaker 1>in the world. It's something any sensible human would be

222
00:12:53.879 --> 00:12:56.919
<v Speaker 1>proud to be a member of. And she's painting it

223
00:12:56.960 --> 00:13:01.000
<v Speaker 1>as a negative that should disqualify them from serving on

224
00:13:01.039 --> 00:13:05.639
<v Speaker 1>the bench. I mean, that's open anti Catholic hostility. Let

225
00:13:05.679 --> 00:13:07.639
<v Speaker 1>me give you a little taste of that, questioning, Ryan,

226
00:13:07.679 --> 00:13:09.840
<v Speaker 1>can you tee up seventeen for me?

227
00:13:10.200 --> 00:13:13.519
<v Speaker 8>There are some questions Harris asked in the Senate Judiciary

228
00:13:13.519 --> 00:13:16.399
<v Speaker 8>Committee that Catholic voters may want to know about.

229
00:13:16.639 --> 00:13:21.440
<v Speaker 9>In Article six of the Constitution very explicitly bans religious

230
00:13:21.480 --> 00:13:26.159
<v Speaker 9>tests for public office, and that's precisely what Kamala Harris did.

231
00:13:26.519 --> 00:13:29.879
<v Speaker 8>In May twenty eighteen and written questions for the nomination

232
00:13:30.000 --> 00:13:32.480
<v Speaker 8>of Peter Phipps for the US District Court for the

233
00:13:32.519 --> 00:13:37.519
<v Speaker 8>Western District of Pennsylvania. Then Senator Harris noted phipps membership

234
00:13:37.559 --> 00:13:41.600
<v Speaker 8>and the Catholic fraternal organization, the Knights of Columbus, asking

235
00:13:41.879 --> 00:13:45.360
<v Speaker 8>if he carried out the Knight's mission of defending the

236
00:13:45.440 --> 00:13:48.440
<v Speaker 8>right to life of every human being from the moment

237
00:13:48.480 --> 00:13:50.360
<v Speaker 8>of conception to natural debt.

238
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:52.000
<v Speaker 1>In November of that.

239
00:13:51.919 --> 00:13:56.120
<v Speaker 8>Same year, Harris scrutinized another Knights membership, that time with

240
00:13:56.240 --> 00:13:59.039
<v Speaker 8>nominee Paul Made as he was being considered for the

241
00:13:59.159 --> 00:14:02.440
<v Speaker 8>US Court of Appeal for the Third Circuit. She asked

242
00:14:02.480 --> 00:14:05.679
<v Speaker 8>if mate was aware of the Knights of Columbus opposed

243
00:14:05.720 --> 00:14:08.840
<v Speaker 8>a woman's right to choose, and whether he believes that

244
00:14:08.879 --> 00:14:13.159
<v Speaker 8>a fetus is entitled to any protection under the US Constitution.

245
00:14:13.879 --> 00:14:17.480
<v Speaker 8>And then in December twenty eighteen, Harris grills a third

246
00:14:17.639 --> 00:14:21.759
<v Speaker 8>judicial nominee over his Knight's involvement, Brian Bischer, who was

247
00:14:21.840 --> 00:14:24.240
<v Speaker 8>nominated to the U. S. District Court for the District

248
00:14:24.320 --> 00:14:28.440
<v Speaker 8>of Nebraska. Among other questions, whether bishop believed abortion is

249
00:14:28.480 --> 00:14:31.720
<v Speaker 8>the killing of the innocent on a massive scale, I.

250
00:14:31.679 --> 00:14:36.320
<v Speaker 9>Mean, really inappropriate questions that have nothing to do with

251
00:14:36.360 --> 00:14:39.960
<v Speaker 9>a person's ability and their loyalty to this country and

252
00:14:40.399 --> 00:14:41.720
<v Speaker 9>their previous service.

253
00:14:42.000 --> 00:14:45.960
<v Speaker 8>Catholic attorney Mary Fiorito looks back on Harris's zeroing in

254
00:14:46.159 --> 00:14:49.559
<v Speaker 8>on the largest Catholic fraternal organization in the world.

255
00:14:49.360 --> 00:14:52.080
<v Speaker 9>As someone who was running for higher office. They're always

256
00:14:52.080 --> 00:14:54.559
<v Speaker 9>looking to where their big donors are standing, and of

257
00:14:54.600 --> 00:14:57.759
<v Speaker 9>course two of her hugest donors have been, you know,

258
00:14:57.960 --> 00:15:02.480
<v Speaker 9>advocacy groups for redefinition of marriage and advocacy groups for abortion.

259
00:15:03.000 --> 00:15:06.200
<v Speaker 8>And response to Harris's past scrutiny of the Nights, the

260
00:15:06.320 --> 00:15:10.159
<v Speaker 8>Archdiocese of San Francisco, where here has got her political start,

261
00:15:10.480 --> 00:15:14.840
<v Speaker 8>tells EWTN News in depth, any reasonable and informed person

262
00:15:14.960 --> 00:15:17.879
<v Speaker 8>would not disparage members of one of the world's largest

263
00:15:18.000 --> 00:15:22.720
<v Speaker 8>charitable organizations that supports widows, orphans, and the less fortunate.

264
00:15:23.200 --> 00:15:26.559
<v Speaker 8>The Nights of Columbus adhere to the highest standards of professional,

265
00:15:26.799 --> 00:15:28.519
<v Speaker 8>ethical and moral conduct.

266
00:15:28.720 --> 00:15:31.759
<v Speaker 1>I want to ask you a hard question, are you

267
00:15:31.879 --> 00:15:34.759
<v Speaker 1>now or have you ever been involved in the organization

268
00:15:34.840 --> 00:15:38.960
<v Speaker 1>of a fish fry as a consumer?

269
00:15:39.039 --> 00:15:39.399
<v Speaker 4>I have.

270
00:15:39.639 --> 00:15:42.279
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, let's step it, Thank you, Ryan. It goes on

271
00:15:42.360 --> 00:15:45.039
<v Speaker 1>for a bit, but very important reporting. So here's my point. Okay,

272
00:15:46.039 --> 00:15:48.279
<v Speaker 1>particularly in the Blue Wall states, but also down in

273
00:15:48.320 --> 00:15:50.960
<v Speaker 1>Arizona and some other states. You know that the Catholic

274
00:15:51.080 --> 00:15:54.639
<v Speaker 1>vote looms very large, and I think Trump is going

275
00:15:54.679 --> 00:15:58.080
<v Speaker 1>to win it many places by record numbers, and that

276
00:15:58.200 --> 00:16:01.080
<v Speaker 1>will be the different side of the difference in deciding

277
00:16:01.120 --> 00:16:04.519
<v Speaker 1>the election in his favor, or the difference between an

278
00:16:04.519 --> 00:16:07.919
<v Speaker 1>election that would be decided in his favor anyway, then

279
00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:11.080
<v Speaker 1>turning into a route that will hopefully bring along some

280
00:16:11.120 --> 00:16:12.080
<v Speaker 1>senators in Congress.

281
00:16:12.120 --> 00:16:12.399
<v Speaker 3>People.

282
00:16:12.399 --> 00:16:16.600
<v Speaker 1>But listen to this most recent polling Catholic vote in Wisconsin,

283
00:16:18.399 --> 00:16:23.000
<v Speaker 1>Trump fifty seven, Harris thirty nine Catholic vote in Michigan

284
00:16:23.039 --> 00:16:24.600
<v Speaker 1>wherein you can check it out on my Twitter at

285
00:16:24.679 --> 00:16:28.840
<v Speaker 1>Dan Kaplis. You have the governor of Michigan wearing a

286
00:16:28.879 --> 00:16:33.000
<v Speaker 1>Harris Walls hat as she mocks Holy Communion.

287
00:16:33.080 --> 00:16:33.919
<v Speaker 3>She mocks the.

288
00:16:33.799 --> 00:16:38.879
<v Speaker 1>Holy Eucharist in a very profane and sexualized way. I mean,

289
00:16:38.919 --> 00:16:40.440
<v Speaker 1>as I said at the time, and I believe it

290
00:16:40.519 --> 00:16:44.360
<v Speaker 1>actually trying to make sure Harris loses. It's in Whitmer's

291
00:16:44.399 --> 00:16:47.080
<v Speaker 1>interest that Harris lose and get out of the way.

292
00:16:47.360 --> 00:16:51.080
<v Speaker 1>But in Michigan right now, you've got Trump up twelve

293
00:16:51.120 --> 00:16:54.000
<v Speaker 1>in the Catholic vote, You've got Trump up eight in

294
00:16:54.039 --> 00:16:58.480
<v Speaker 1>the Catholic vote in Arizona, You've got Trump up six

295
00:16:58.559 --> 00:17:02.440
<v Speaker 1>in the Catholic vote in Georgia. And I think his margins,

296
00:17:02.720 --> 00:17:05.200
<v Speaker 1>I think his margins are going to be as large

297
00:17:05.359 --> 00:17:06.759
<v Speaker 1>or larger than that.

298
00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:09.680
<v Speaker 6>Those are catastrophic numbers, Dan, when you think about it,

299
00:17:09.680 --> 00:17:12.200
<v Speaker 6>doesn't the Catholic vote, and especially with Joe Biden being

300
00:17:12.200 --> 00:17:14.680
<v Speaker 6>a Catholic, normally favor the Democratic candidate.

301
00:17:14.680 --> 00:17:16.680
<v Speaker 1>Well, with Biden, that's the only reason he won. He's

302
00:17:17.079 --> 00:17:19.319
<v Speaker 1>able to pull off that con. You know, he's self

303
00:17:19.359 --> 00:17:21.759
<v Speaker 1>identified as a Catholic, and he was able to get

304
00:17:21.880 --> 00:17:24.640
<v Speaker 1>enough Catholic vote, win the Catholic vote, and win by

305
00:17:24.680 --> 00:17:28.480
<v Speaker 1>a hair But Kamala Harris can't pull off that con

306
00:17:29.039 --> 00:17:31.799
<v Speaker 1>and she has, first of all, sheeps not even trying

307
00:17:31.839 --> 00:17:33.920
<v Speaker 1>to self identify as a Catholic and has had this

308
00:17:34.000 --> 00:17:37.599
<v Speaker 1>open hostility that we've talked about on the show, so

309
00:17:38.480 --> 00:17:41.799
<v Speaker 1>Big Factor, and it's one of the many reasons I'm

310
00:17:41.880 --> 00:17:44.359
<v Speaker 1>very confident. Hey, it's not done right, anything could happen.

311
00:17:44.559 --> 00:17:47.839
<v Speaker 1>But talk about Catholic hostility. You got the Al Smith

312
00:17:47.880 --> 00:17:50.920
<v Speaker 1>Dinner tonight. The nominees of the parties have gone to

313
00:17:50.960 --> 00:17:55.519
<v Speaker 1>it forever, and it's tonight, and it's the Cardinal of

314
00:17:55.599 --> 00:17:58.559
<v Speaker 1>New York, and it's light and it's humorous, and it

315
00:17:58.599 --> 00:18:01.640
<v Speaker 1>benefits all these charities and it's a come together moment

316
00:18:01.680 --> 00:18:02.440
<v Speaker 1>for America.

317
00:18:02.559 --> 00:18:02.759
<v Speaker 7>Right.

318
00:18:03.559 --> 00:18:08.519
<v Speaker 1>And she won't even go talk about open hostility and

319
00:18:08.559 --> 00:18:10.000
<v Speaker 1>animosity toward.

320
00:18:09.799 --> 00:18:11.519
<v Speaker 3>Catholic She won't even go to that.

321
00:18:12.559 --> 00:18:15.039
<v Speaker 1>George Brockler. Next, you're on the Dan Kapla Show.

322
00:18:19.160 --> 00:18:21.559
<v Speaker 5>You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.

323
00:18:22.119 --> 00:18:23.640
<v Speaker 3>What a great day for the world.

324
00:18:23.839 --> 00:18:27.440
<v Speaker 1>Sinwar is dead, evil personified. And think about it. If

325
00:18:27.519 --> 00:18:31.079
<v Speaker 1>Kamala Harris had her way, literally, if she had her way,

326
00:18:31.119 --> 00:18:33.160
<v Speaker 1>he would not only be alive today, he'd be in

327
00:18:33.200 --> 00:18:37.200
<v Speaker 1>a protective enclave with his army in tech. Because remember

328
00:18:37.279 --> 00:18:40.039
<v Speaker 1>cut twenty eight plays rund. Remember it was Kamala Harris

329
00:18:40.079 --> 00:18:44.359
<v Speaker 1>who publicly scolded Israel. Does that sound familiar saying do

330
00:18:44.480 --> 00:18:45.680
<v Speaker 1>not go into Rafa?

331
00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:46.000
<v Speaker 6>Why?

332
00:18:46.920 --> 00:18:49.640
<v Speaker 1>Because she's looked at the maps, Cody.

333
00:18:49.440 --> 00:18:54.839
<v Speaker 10>We have been clear in multiple conversations and in every

334
00:18:54.880 --> 00:19:01.200
<v Speaker 10>way that any major military operation in Rafa would be

335
00:19:01.440 --> 00:19:03.720
<v Speaker 10>a huge mistake. Let me tell you something. I have

336
00:19:04.440 --> 00:19:05.359
<v Speaker 10>studied the map.

337
00:19:06.200 --> 00:19:07.799
<v Speaker 3>Stop it can't take anymore.

338
00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:11.720
<v Speaker 1>She's studied the maps. Well, thank goodness bb Net Niyahu

339
00:19:12.480 --> 00:19:16.960
<v Speaker 1>didn't rely on Kamala Harris because instead they killed Sinwar

340
00:19:17.119 --> 00:19:19.440
<v Speaker 1>today and the world's better off. Let's go to the

341
00:19:19.519 --> 00:19:22.759
<v Speaker 1>VIP line and welcome George Brockler back to the Dan

342
00:19:22.839 --> 00:19:26.759
<v Speaker 1>Caplis show. Georgia about to be elected the DA in

343
00:19:26.839 --> 00:19:32.319
<v Speaker 1>Douglas County, Colorado. Is it becomes its own a DA seat? George,

344
00:19:32.319 --> 00:19:34.039
<v Speaker 1>how goes that grueling campaign?

345
00:19:35.200 --> 00:19:38.440
<v Speaker 4>Oh? Well, listen, I just don't want to jinx it.

346
00:19:38.519 --> 00:19:41.720
<v Speaker 4>And I've said this repeatedly, as you know from twenty eighteen.

347
00:19:42.400 --> 00:19:46.559
<v Speaker 4>I have an Achilles heel and it's inexperienced, ill suited

348
00:19:46.599 --> 00:19:49.400
<v Speaker 4>attorneys for the job. So I've already been taken down

349
00:19:49.440 --> 00:19:51.839
<v Speaker 4>once by one. I don't want to challenge the fates

350
00:19:51.880 --> 00:19:52.799
<v Speaker 4>and mose to another.

351
00:19:53.680 --> 00:19:57.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I do not see that happening, my friend. But yes,

352
00:19:57.759 --> 00:20:01.319
<v Speaker 1>we will wait until election data formal. But glad you're

353
00:20:01.359 --> 00:20:05.680
<v Speaker 1>with us today. First question is what's the line tonight?

354
00:20:06.279 --> 00:20:08.839
<v Speaker 1>I know New Orleans must be favored, right, but by

355
00:20:08.880 --> 00:20:09.319
<v Speaker 1>how many?

356
00:20:10.440 --> 00:20:13.400
<v Speaker 4>That's a great question. I haven't looked recently. I've been

357
00:20:13.480 --> 00:20:17.880
<v Speaker 4>caught up here watching my Yankees lose or losing to.

358
00:20:17.839 --> 00:20:20.720
<v Speaker 3>The Oriols, well, the Orioles. That wasn't that like light

359
00:20:20.839 --> 00:20:22.519
<v Speaker 3>years ago? Aren't Oh?

360
00:20:22.559 --> 00:20:23.119
<v Speaker 1>The Guardians?

361
00:20:23.240 --> 00:20:24.880
<v Speaker 4>Yeah no, no, no.

362
00:20:24.839 --> 00:20:28.119
<v Speaker 3>It's so good news, good news. Yeah, that was weeks.

363
00:20:27.839 --> 00:20:30.480
<v Speaker 4>Ago the Guardians. Okay, said Indians.

364
00:20:30.480 --> 00:20:33.119
<v Speaker 3>But Guardian yeah no, no, it either would work.

365
00:20:33.160 --> 00:20:35.599
<v Speaker 1>Where where's that series at?

366
00:20:35.960 --> 00:20:38.559
<v Speaker 4>I mean what we're in They're in Cleveland right now,

367
00:20:38.640 --> 00:20:40.480
<v Speaker 4>They're in jd Vance's state.

368
00:20:40.640 --> 00:20:42.720
<v Speaker 1>But I thought Yankees are up. But in any case,

369
00:20:42.720 --> 00:20:45.039
<v Speaker 1>my friend I Digress, I was wondering about the Broncos

370
00:20:45.079 --> 00:20:47.880
<v Speaker 1>because there's still what about no hour to game time?

371
00:20:47.920 --> 00:20:50.200
<v Speaker 1>But I've yep, I've got, for some reason, a good

372
00:20:50.240 --> 00:20:52.839
<v Speaker 1>feeling about that game tonight. But hey, let's talk about

373
00:20:52.880 --> 00:20:56.400
<v Speaker 1>one twenty eight and one thirty propositions one twenty eight

374
00:20:56.440 --> 00:20:59.079
<v Speaker 1>and one thirty, longer prison minimum prison time in one

375
00:20:59.200 --> 00:21:03.279
<v Speaker 1>twenty eight, and more law enforcement funding in thirty. So

376
00:21:03.400 --> 00:21:04.880
<v Speaker 1>tell folks all about that place.

377
00:21:05.960 --> 00:21:08.839
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, sure, one twenty eight shouldn't be necessary in a

378
00:21:08.880 --> 00:21:11.880
<v Speaker 4>state that was reasonable or transparent or head truth and sensing.

379
00:21:11.920 --> 00:21:14.799
<v Speaker 4>Our law right now on paper says that a violent

380
00:21:14.839 --> 00:21:17.400
<v Speaker 4>criminal has to serve seventy five percent of their sentence

381
00:21:17.400 --> 00:21:19.559
<v Speaker 4>before they're parole eligible. But that turns out to be

382
00:21:19.599 --> 00:21:22.400
<v Speaker 4>a big, fat lie because of things that have been

383
00:21:22.400 --> 00:21:25.160
<v Speaker 4>built into the law and the parole system like earn

384
00:21:25.279 --> 00:21:28.200
<v Speaker 4>time and good time, neither of which are actually premised

385
00:21:28.240 --> 00:21:32.839
<v Speaker 4>on earning or being good. It turns out that most

386
00:21:32.920 --> 00:21:35.880
<v Speaker 4>almost all violent criminals, short of life without parole that's

387
00:21:35.920 --> 00:21:39.240
<v Speaker 4>your first degree murders, they become parole eligible after about

388
00:21:39.279 --> 00:21:43.000
<v Speaker 4>forty six percent of their sentence. And this is a

389
00:21:43.000 --> 00:21:45.480
<v Speaker 4>provision that would say we're done with the games, we're

390
00:21:45.519 --> 00:21:48.240
<v Speaker 4>done with the garbage. You're going to serve eighty five

391
00:21:48.279 --> 00:21:51.200
<v Speaker 4>percent of your time before you get looked at for parole.

392
00:21:52.920 --> 00:21:57.279
<v Speaker 1>Now, I may have to imagine that's polling very well.

393
00:21:57.319 --> 00:22:00.200
<v Speaker 4>I think the polling is actually really very good on this,

394
00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:05.079
<v Speaker 4>and it's hard to find opposition outside of the ACLU

395
00:22:05.240 --> 00:22:08.599
<v Speaker 4>and their political arm who opposes this, and some defense

396
00:22:08.640 --> 00:22:11.359
<v Speaker 4>attorneys as well. But it's the only thing that makes sense.

397
00:22:11.440 --> 00:22:14.000
<v Speaker 4>I mean, right now, when someone is sentenced to prison

398
00:22:14.039 --> 00:22:17.039
<v Speaker 4>on a violent crime, it's not murder. Nobody on the

399
00:22:17.079 --> 00:22:19.519
<v Speaker 4>planet Earth can tell you what the minimum amount of

400
00:22:19.519 --> 00:22:22.160
<v Speaker 4>time that they'll serve is, and that's not fair to victims,

401
00:22:22.160 --> 00:22:24.319
<v Speaker 4>the community, or the defendant for that matter.

402
00:22:24.599 --> 00:22:26.799
<v Speaker 1>Right now, and I've got to believe that that Polus

403
00:22:26.839 --> 00:22:29.039
<v Speaker 1>and the rest of the Democratic leadership in the state

404
00:22:29.039 --> 00:22:32.680
<v Speaker 1>Democratic Party leadership are way out of touch with even

405
00:22:32.720 --> 00:22:34.839
<v Speaker 1>a lot of rank and file Democrats when it comes

406
00:22:34.839 --> 00:22:37.039
<v Speaker 1>to public safety, because I don't think they care about

407
00:22:37.039 --> 00:22:40.000
<v Speaker 1>public safety. I think they care about, you know ingratiating

408
00:22:40.000 --> 00:22:42.400
<v Speaker 1>themselves with the far left that has the big money.

409
00:22:43.160 --> 00:22:45.440
<v Speaker 1>But tell us about one thirty place.

410
00:22:46.720 --> 00:22:49.200
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, one thirty's back to the blue. This is one

411
00:22:49.279 --> 00:22:52.160
<v Speaker 4>that probably hits you in a pretty sweet spot then,

412
00:22:52.240 --> 00:22:55.440
<v Speaker 4>given the career servant that your father was out there

413
00:22:55.440 --> 00:23:00.200
<v Speaker 4>in Chicago doing the omens work behind the badge. This

414
00:23:00.240 --> 00:23:02.119
<v Speaker 4>is one that takes a look at what we've done

415
00:23:02.160 --> 00:23:04.640
<v Speaker 4>to law enforcement over the last four or five years

416
00:23:04.640 --> 00:23:08.480
<v Speaker 4>in that post George Floyd Earraw, where we have demoralized police.

417
00:23:08.519 --> 00:23:11.839
<v Speaker 4>We've caused numbers to not stay on the job. We've

418
00:23:11.839 --> 00:23:13.680
<v Speaker 4>caused a bunch more to not ever seek to be

419
00:23:13.799 --> 00:23:16.519
<v Speaker 4>police officers that should be. We've put them on their

420
00:23:16.559 --> 00:23:18.680
<v Speaker 4>heels at a time when my God we need them

421
00:23:18.720 --> 00:23:21.599
<v Speaker 4>to be proactive as ever, and it says we're going

422
00:23:21.640 --> 00:23:24.400
<v Speaker 4>to take three hundred and fifty million dollars of existing

423
00:23:24.680 --> 00:23:27.119
<v Speaker 4>tax money that doesn't require any new taxes. We are

424
00:23:27.440 --> 00:23:30.359
<v Speaker 4>tying the legislature's hands and telling them you will give

425
00:23:30.759 --> 00:23:32.839
<v Speaker 4>three hundred and fifty million dollars to the Division of

426
00:23:32.880 --> 00:23:36.359
<v Speaker 4>Public Safety, and Division public Safety will then give that

427
00:23:36.480 --> 00:23:39.839
<v Speaker 4>out to other communities in the form of grants so

428
00:23:39.880 --> 00:23:43.400
<v Speaker 4>that they can do recruiting, training, retention, and oh, by

429
00:23:43.440 --> 00:23:45.680
<v Speaker 4>the way, the thing we never hope they need the

430
00:23:45.720 --> 00:23:47.799
<v Speaker 4>money for, and that is a million dollar depth benefit

431
00:23:47.960 --> 00:23:50.920
<v Speaker 4>for law enforcement officers who die in the line of duty.

432
00:23:51.039 --> 00:23:53.920
<v Speaker 4>I had four of them under when I was district attorney.

433
00:23:53.960 --> 00:23:57.319
<v Speaker 4>So this happens, including guys like Zach Paris that actually

434
00:23:57.359 --> 00:24:00.000
<v Speaker 4>could have been number five, Zach Parish. This stuff happened,

435
00:24:00.200 --> 00:24:02.480
<v Speaker 4>and it's an attempt to try to tell law enforcement,

436
00:24:03.000 --> 00:24:06.799
<v Speaker 4>we need you to be proactive in the dangerous situations

437
00:24:06.880 --> 00:24:09.200
<v Speaker 4>where we need to put you between us and evil,

438
00:24:09.599 --> 00:24:11.480
<v Speaker 4>and we want you to have that peace of mind that,

439
00:24:11.599 --> 00:24:13.440
<v Speaker 4>my God, if the worst or the worst happens, your

440
00:24:13.480 --> 00:24:14.119
<v Speaker 4>family will.

441
00:24:13.960 --> 00:24:16.359
<v Speaker 1>Be taken care of well in respect right, I mean,

442
00:24:16.400 --> 00:24:18.920
<v Speaker 1>as you said, initially. You know, there's been so much

443
00:24:18.960 --> 00:24:22.960
<v Speaker 1>disrespect from the elected left toward law enforcement, just showing

444
00:24:23.039 --> 00:24:26.279
<v Speaker 1>respect in a tangible way, and it is kind of

445
00:24:27.000 --> 00:24:30.559
<v Speaker 1>social suicide right to be undermining law enforcement and law

446
00:24:30.640 --> 00:24:34.240
<v Speaker 1>enforcement recruiting. You know, who do poll Us and Hickenlooper

447
00:24:34.279 --> 00:24:37.240
<v Speaker 1>and Bennett's who do they think is going to protect them?

448
00:24:39.160 --> 00:24:42.359
<v Speaker 4>Yeah? Well they think the law enforcement they've demoralized, you're

449
00:24:42.400 --> 00:24:45.359
<v Speaker 4>going to protect them. And if you first off both

450
00:24:45.440 --> 00:24:48.640
<v Speaker 4>of these measures, I think folks should look at and say,

451
00:24:48.720 --> 00:24:51.720
<v Speaker 4>thank god, we have an initiative process here in Colorado

452
00:24:52.119 --> 00:24:54.720
<v Speaker 4>where the voters can do an end run around whoever's

453
00:24:54.759 --> 00:24:57.119
<v Speaker 4>in charge under the Gold Dome, because these things wouldn't

454
00:24:57.119 --> 00:25:01.279
<v Speaker 4>exist without the legislature would not prioritize either or incarceration

455
00:25:01.400 --> 00:25:05.960
<v Speaker 4>of the truly bad guys, or empowering and embolding law enforcement.

456
00:25:05.960 --> 00:25:08.000
<v Speaker 4>They wouldn't do that. So this is hats off to

457
00:25:08.519 --> 00:25:10.400
<v Speaker 4>us to be able to put something like this on

458
00:25:10.519 --> 00:25:14.039
<v Speaker 4>the ballot. But you're right, the people in power don't

459
00:25:14.079 --> 00:25:16.839
<v Speaker 4>really care about public safety. They give it lip service.

460
00:25:17.160 --> 00:25:20.039
<v Speaker 4>I remember Polis saying that he wanted Colorados a few

461
00:25:20.079 --> 00:25:22.000
<v Speaker 4>years ago, Polus saying he wanted to Colorada to be

462
00:25:22.079 --> 00:25:23.000
<v Speaker 4>in the top ten.

463
00:25:23.279 --> 00:25:25.079
<v Speaker 3>Safest states in all for himself.

464
00:25:26.319 --> 00:25:29.519
<v Speaker 4>Well, right, but now we're like top three unsafest.

465
00:25:30.880 --> 00:25:33.960
<v Speaker 1>He has his own security squad, right, he lives in

466
00:25:34.039 --> 00:25:37.200
<v Speaker 1>this money bubble. He lives in this protection bubble with

467
00:25:37.279 --> 00:25:40.799
<v Speaker 1>his own security squad. Do you think can I haven't

468
00:25:40.839 --> 00:25:43.039
<v Speaker 1>said this about many other Democrats before, but do you

469
00:25:43.119 --> 00:25:46.680
<v Speaker 1>think he truly cares at all about anybody else out

470
00:25:46.720 --> 00:25:49.319
<v Speaker 1>there their safety? Because if he does, he has a

471
00:25:49.359 --> 00:25:50.440
<v Speaker 1>strange way of showing it.

472
00:25:51.359 --> 00:25:54.480
<v Speaker 4>Well, his policies are completely ineffective and upside down. And

473
00:25:54.599 --> 00:25:58.079
<v Speaker 4>for a guy who wants to run for president after

474
00:25:58.240 --> 00:26:01.640
<v Speaker 4>Trump's next term, it seems to me he's putting himself

475
00:26:01.680 --> 00:26:04.240
<v Speaker 4>in a position to wear a big black eye over

476
00:26:04.319 --> 00:26:06.839
<v Speaker 4>public safety. And you're right, I think for him right now,

477
00:26:07.839 --> 00:26:10.799
<v Speaker 4>crime doesn't touch him, doesn't touch anyone he cares about

478
00:26:10.839 --> 00:26:13.359
<v Speaker 4>anything he owns. It's kind of hard to see how

479
00:26:13.440 --> 00:26:16.480
<v Speaker 4>it really impacts everyday people. And that's why he's able

480
00:26:16.559 --> 00:26:20.039
<v Speaker 4>to say with such confidence that the Venezuelan issue with

481
00:26:20.119 --> 00:26:23.359
<v Speaker 4>those couple of apartment complexes is a feature of Daniel Shrink,

482
00:26:23.440 --> 00:26:25.680
<v Speaker 4>He's imagination because it just doesn't affect him.

483
00:26:25.920 --> 00:26:28.359
<v Speaker 1>And I think Georgia comes back to I don't think

484
00:26:28.440 --> 00:26:31.039
<v Speaker 1>he is concerned about a black guy because at this point,

485
00:26:31.400 --> 00:26:33.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't think he thinks the truth matters. I think

486
00:26:33.480 --> 00:26:35.880
<v Speaker 1>that he believes the media is going to protect him,

487
00:26:35.920 --> 00:26:39.119
<v Speaker 1>right the infamous words of John Hickenloopert to Kusa, Hey,

488
00:26:39.160 --> 00:26:41.000
<v Speaker 1>you're supposed to protect me from this stuff?

489
00:26:41.079 --> 00:26:43.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? Why did Hick think that? Because they do it.

490
00:26:44.200 --> 00:26:48.720
<v Speaker 1>So between his money bubble and between media protection, I

491
00:26:48.759 --> 00:26:51.079
<v Speaker 1>don't think he's worried at all about the truth.

492
00:26:52.480 --> 00:26:55.160
<v Speaker 4>I don't either, And I think that other than shows

493
00:26:55.359 --> 00:26:57.440
<v Speaker 4>like yours and Ryan's and some of the others on

494
00:26:57.519 --> 00:27:00.440
<v Speaker 4>the dial out there, they're just is no either. It's

495
00:27:00.599 --> 00:27:03.039
<v Speaker 4>it's a lack of interest, like a lack of true

496
00:27:03.119 --> 00:27:06.680
<v Speaker 4>curiosity or a lack of resources or some combination of

497
00:27:06.759 --> 00:27:09.799
<v Speaker 4>the boat that this just isn't on their radar. I mean,

498
00:27:09.839 --> 00:27:13.400
<v Speaker 4>the Denver Post has largely de emphasized the crime wave

499
00:27:13.480 --> 00:27:17.839
<v Speaker 4>that took place in the things that are he Wow, yeah,

500
00:27:17.880 --> 00:27:19.400
<v Speaker 4>why would he worry about it? Can I throw out

501
00:27:19.400 --> 00:27:21.359
<v Speaker 4>one other thing? There is an amendment I that's on

502
00:27:21.440 --> 00:27:26.920
<v Speaker 4>the ballot. Not yet, not yet, you'll be on the bouts.

503
00:27:27.200 --> 00:27:30.480
<v Speaker 3>Oh no, no, no, no.

504
00:27:30.759 --> 00:27:33.759
<v Speaker 4>So there was a provision we had in our constitution

505
00:27:34.079 --> 00:27:37.480
<v Speaker 4>that said that everybody that's accused of a crime is

506
00:27:37.720 --> 00:27:41.960
<v Speaker 4>entitled to bail unless you commit a capital offense. And

507
00:27:42.200 --> 00:27:46.200
<v Speaker 4>murder had been a capital offense up until police because

508
00:27:46.559 --> 00:27:48.759
<v Speaker 4>a lot of murders were eligible for the death penalty

509
00:27:48.799 --> 00:27:51.759
<v Speaker 4>even if we never did ultimately pursue them. Well, once

510
00:27:51.839 --> 00:27:54.599
<v Speaker 4>police and the legislature did away with our death penalty,

511
00:27:55.039 --> 00:27:57.759
<v Speaker 4>they took away that capital provision, and the Supreme Court

512
00:27:57.880 --> 00:28:01.759
<v Speaker 4>rightly came back and said, well, now everyone is entitled

513
00:28:01.799 --> 00:28:04.640
<v Speaker 4>to bail, even if you're the Club Q shooter, even

514
00:28:04.640 --> 00:28:07.480
<v Speaker 4>if you're the Boulder mass murder, even if you're the

515
00:28:07.559 --> 00:28:10.799
<v Speaker 4>Aurora Fear murder. So there's a provision out there called

516
00:28:10.839 --> 00:28:13.519
<v Speaker 4>Amendment I that would seek to say, hey, we change

517
00:28:13.519 --> 00:28:15.920
<v Speaker 4>our mind on this. We actually think that in cases

518
00:28:15.960 --> 00:28:18.559
<v Speaker 4>of first degree murder where the evidence is pretty overwhelming,

519
00:28:18.599 --> 00:28:21.519
<v Speaker 4>it's called proof evident presumption. Great, we're going to empower

520
00:28:21.640 --> 00:28:25.039
<v Speaker 4>judges to say you cannot get out of jail until

521
00:28:25.119 --> 00:28:28.519
<v Speaker 4>your trial because of the crime that you've committed. If

522
00:28:28.559 --> 00:28:31.400
<v Speaker 4>that doesn't pass, all these mass murders that we're going

523
00:28:31.440 --> 00:28:33.960
<v Speaker 4>to end up having, they're going to end up being

524
00:28:34.079 --> 00:28:34.720
<v Speaker 4>entitled to bail.

525
00:28:34.880 --> 00:28:35.480
<v Speaker 3>Oh my Lord.

526
00:28:35.599 --> 00:28:37.839
<v Speaker 1>Well, George, thanks for all your great work on this.

527
00:28:38.000 --> 00:28:39.799
<v Speaker 1>We've got to hit this hard break here, but let's

528
00:28:39.880 --> 00:28:40.799
<v Speaker 1>talk again next week.

529
00:28:41.880 --> 00:28:42.920
<v Speaker 4>Love to thank you having me.

530
00:28:42.920 --> 00:28:43.960
<v Speaker 5>I appreciate the ticulate.

531
00:28:44.200 --> 00:28:44.440
<v Speaker 3>Thank you.

532
00:28:44.559 --> 00:28:48.119
<v Speaker 1>That is George Brouckler. Hey, when we come back, Trump's

533
00:28:48.200 --> 00:28:51.319
<v Speaker 1>secret weapon hasn't been talked about nearly enough. You're on

534
00:28:51.359 --> 00:28:52.480
<v Speaker 1>the Dan Campla Show.

535
00:28:54.160 --> 00:28:56.519
<v Speaker 5>And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.

536
00:28:57.279 --> 00:29:02.119
<v Speaker 11>This woman, to me is not qualified to you know,

537
00:29:02.359 --> 00:29:05.400
<v Speaker 11>a dunkin Donuts or a seven eleven. Let her alone

538
00:29:05.839 --> 00:29:08.319
<v Speaker 11>the corporation that we call the United States of America.

539
00:29:10.559 --> 00:29:13.319
<v Speaker 11>People want to act like Trump is the worst motherfuck

540
00:29:13.400 --> 00:29:16.200
<v Speaker 11>in the world. But guess what, he was already president

541
00:29:16.279 --> 00:29:19.200
<v Speaker 11>and all this you're talking about didn't happen. He didn't

542
00:29:19.240 --> 00:29:22.319
<v Speaker 11>make hisself a dictator. And this whole about he's going

543
00:29:22.400 --> 00:29:27.079
<v Speaker 11>to make yourself a dictator is really taken so out

544
00:29:27.160 --> 00:29:28.799
<v Speaker 11>of context that it's ridiculous.

545
00:29:29.680 --> 00:29:32.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that is a Jamar, a rapper?

546
00:29:32.200 --> 00:29:32.799
<v Speaker 1>Was that Jamar?

547
00:29:32.920 --> 00:29:33.960
<v Speaker 3>We bumped back with that.

548
00:29:34.200 --> 00:29:36.079
<v Speaker 5>Was well, he calls himself lord Jamar.

549
00:29:36.119 --> 00:29:36.759
<v Speaker 6>I know you don't like that.

550
00:29:36.839 --> 00:29:40.680
<v Speaker 1>I don't like any of that. That this Charlemagne that, Yeah,

551
00:29:40.920 --> 00:29:44.799
<v Speaker 1>I don't like any of that stuff. But anyway, that

552
00:29:45.240 --> 00:29:48.920
<v Speaker 1>the point being here that he nailed it A and

553
00:29:49.160 --> 00:29:53.359
<v Speaker 1>n B. I just love seeing now the Harris campaign

554
00:29:53.480 --> 00:29:58.440
<v Speaker 1>and desperation and venom just soaking in venom now lashing out.

555
00:29:58.440 --> 00:30:00.400
<v Speaker 1>They're going to spend the rest of the campaign clearly

556
00:30:01.000 --> 00:30:04.079
<v Speaker 1>not talking about what they have to offer or joy

557
00:30:04.279 --> 00:30:08.480
<v Speaker 1>or vibes for America, but just this venom spewing at Trump.

558
00:30:09.039 --> 00:30:11.880
<v Speaker 1>And this is apparently their closing message. And I say,

559
00:30:12.079 --> 00:30:16.480
<v Speaker 1>please bring it on, because you know, that is the

560
00:30:16.559 --> 00:30:19.039
<v Speaker 1>worst possible thing they could do for their own campaign,

561
00:30:19.079 --> 00:30:22.079
<v Speaker 1>and maybe kind of scream therapy for them, but it's

562
00:30:22.240 --> 00:30:24.640
<v Speaker 1>just going to make them lose worse because guess what,

563
00:30:25.559 --> 00:30:28.839
<v Speaker 1>Americans have had more than eight years of that, right

564
00:30:29.319 --> 00:30:32.480
<v Speaker 1>even after Trump won the presidency, you know, you had

565
00:30:32.519 --> 00:30:36.440
<v Speaker 1>the Russia eye and everything else. And very interesting, isn't

566
00:30:36.440 --> 00:30:39.160
<v Speaker 1>it that we don't see the Democrats. We haven't seen

567
00:30:39.200 --> 00:30:43.000
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats hamming away at this quote convicted felon garbage.

568
00:30:43.440 --> 00:30:46.319
<v Speaker 1>Why because it's clear the American people get it. That

569
00:30:46.519 --> 00:30:49.079
<v Speaker 1>was an abuse of the criminal justice system. And it's

570
00:30:49.119 --> 00:30:52.480
<v Speaker 1>the Democrats who are the threat to democracy. They want

571
00:30:52.519 --> 00:30:55.640
<v Speaker 1>to jail their political opponents, so they're just spewing this

572
00:30:55.839 --> 00:30:58.559
<v Speaker 1>personal venom at Trump and this Jamar guy.

573
00:30:59.160 --> 00:30:59.720
<v Speaker 3>He nailed it.

574
00:31:00.359 --> 00:31:04.039
<v Speaker 1>And it's the fatal flaw in this strategy. The guy's

575
00:31:04.039 --> 00:31:08.519
<v Speaker 1>already been president. We don't have to guess. We've seen

576
00:31:08.599 --> 00:31:10.440
<v Speaker 1>him in action. He's already been president. And if you

577
00:31:10.480 --> 00:31:11.480
<v Speaker 1>don't like it, you don't like it.

578
00:31:11.559 --> 00:31:12.920
<v Speaker 3>If you do like it, you do like it.

579
00:31:13.039 --> 00:31:16.119
<v Speaker 1>But we've already seen him in action. So when their

580
00:31:16.119 --> 00:31:18.519
<v Speaker 1>whole campaign down the stretch is not based on here's

581
00:31:18.559 --> 00:31:20.640
<v Speaker 1>what we can do for you, but based on no,

582
00:31:20.799 --> 00:31:24.480
<v Speaker 1>he's so awful. Well, vast majority of people they lived it,

583
00:31:25.160 --> 00:31:26.880
<v Speaker 1>and whether they hated the guy or loved the guy

584
00:31:26.960 --> 00:31:29.759
<v Speaker 1>or somewhere in between, they knew that their lives were better.

585
00:31:30.519 --> 00:31:34.079
<v Speaker 1>Their lives are better off, stuff costs less, and the

586
00:31:34.200 --> 00:31:38.200
<v Speaker 1>world wasn't on fire. So yeah, they're going to push

587
00:31:38.279 --> 00:31:41.039
<v Speaker 1>this big lie all the way to the end because

588
00:31:41.240 --> 00:31:44.359
<v Speaker 1>the left, not Democrats, but the left just consumed by

589
00:31:44.480 --> 00:31:47.400
<v Speaker 1>hate and they're losing their minds now because they're losing.

590
00:31:48.200 --> 00:31:51.519
<v Speaker 1>So it's going to be a remarkable experience we have

591
00:31:51.720 --> 00:31:56.440
<v Speaker 1>together over these next few weeks. Texter says Dan Denver

592
00:31:56.799 --> 00:31:59.960
<v Speaker 1>giving three tonights. So Denver favored at New Orleans.

593
00:32:00.720 --> 00:32:02.279
<v Speaker 5>That's no, Kelly looked that one up.

594
00:32:02.359 --> 00:32:02.519
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

595
00:32:02.519 --> 00:32:03.920
<v Speaker 1>See, I've had a good feeling about the game, but

596
00:32:04.000 --> 00:32:05.880
<v Speaker 1>I was sure Denver was going to be a dog.

597
00:32:06.039 --> 00:32:09.279
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I'll look forward to a good game tonight.

598
00:32:09.720 --> 00:32:10.680
<v Speaker 1>It's just joined us.

599
00:32:11.039 --> 00:32:11.440
<v Speaker 3>One thing.

600
00:32:11.640 --> 00:32:16.720
<v Speaker 1>If if you're tending to favor Kamala Harris, or you

601
00:32:16.799 --> 00:32:19.480
<v Speaker 1>know you oppose Kamala Harris, if you know somebody in

602
00:32:19.640 --> 00:32:23.839
<v Speaker 1>Swing States, if you know somebody in Swing States, please

603
00:32:23.960 --> 00:32:27.000
<v Speaker 1>remind them of this because it's so striking today and

604
00:32:27.119 --> 00:32:31.079
<v Speaker 1>so real, and there's no gray area here. Her judgment

605
00:32:31.359 --> 00:32:36.680
<v Speaker 1>is so bad, her ideology is so bad. If she wins,

606
00:32:36.920 --> 00:32:38.839
<v Speaker 1>her reign as commander in chief is going to be

607
00:32:38.960 --> 00:32:42.119
<v Speaker 1>catastrophic for this nation and the world. And here's exhibit A. Today,

608
00:32:42.920 --> 00:32:46.680
<v Speaker 1>every thinking, honest, moral person can agree that Sinwar, the

609
00:32:46.759 --> 00:32:51.319
<v Speaker 1>evil leader of Hamas and Gaza, who was killed today

610
00:32:51.519 --> 00:32:54.799
<v Speaker 1>by the Great State of Israel, and thank God for it.

611
00:32:55.359 --> 00:32:59.799
<v Speaker 1>Everybody can agree that that Sinwar had to be eliminated.

612
00:33:00.119 --> 00:33:03.319
<v Speaker 1>And what did Kamala Harris want to do? She very

613
00:33:03.559 --> 00:33:08.160
<v Speaker 1>publicly scolded and chastised and warned Israel, warned of consequences.

614
00:33:08.920 --> 00:33:12.160
<v Speaker 1>Do not go into Rafa. You must not go into Rafa.

615
00:33:12.680 --> 00:33:15.839
<v Speaker 1>So if Kamala Harris had her way, and she had

616
00:33:15.920 --> 00:33:18.200
<v Speaker 1>to know it at the time, right, if Israel has

617
00:33:18.279 --> 00:33:20.680
<v Speaker 1>kept out of Rafa, well then where's Sinoar going. He's

618
00:33:20.759 --> 00:33:24.359
<v Speaker 1>going to Rafa and he's going to rebuild his army

619
00:33:24.440 --> 00:33:27.400
<v Speaker 1>there and he's going to win because he survived and

620
00:33:27.480 --> 00:33:30.720
<v Speaker 1>his army survived and they're all in Rafa. And that's

621
00:33:30.799 --> 00:33:34.319
<v Speaker 1>what she was insisting happened. So if she had her way,

622
00:33:35.799 --> 00:33:38.960
<v Speaker 1>Sinwar is alive today, not only alive today, but in

623
00:33:39.079 --> 00:33:45.759
<v Speaker 1>a protected enclave of Raffa. People have hopefully Donald Trump

624
00:33:45.799 --> 00:33:49.279
<v Speaker 1>will hammer that and people will realize that and ponder that.

625
00:33:49.680 --> 00:33:53.039
<v Speaker 1>But remember, Ryan, how could anybody ever question her because

626
00:33:53.119 --> 00:33:56.759
<v Speaker 1>she studied the maps? Do we have time for twenty eight?

627
00:33:56.880 --> 00:33:58.039
<v Speaker 1>What a great way to down the show.

628
00:33:58.400 --> 00:34:03.799
<v Speaker 10>We have been clear in multiple conversations and in every

629
00:34:03.880 --> 00:34:10.199
<v Speaker 10>way that any major military operation in Rafa would be

630
00:34:10.440 --> 00:34:12.400
<v Speaker 10>a huge mistake. Let me tell you something.

631
00:34:12.440 --> 00:34:16.480
<v Speaker 1>I have studied the maps ended there, Yes, studied the maps.

632
00:34:16.760 --> 00:34:21.400
<v Speaker 1>So wow, how lucky the world is that bb Netnyah

633
00:34:21.400 --> 00:34:24.280
<v Speaker 1>who trusted his own judgment, not Kamala Harris's, because she

634
00:34:24.440 --> 00:34:27.880
<v Speaker 1>would have she knew it. Sinware would have had that

635
00:34:27.960 --> 00:34:31.039
<v Speaker 1>on clave, Hamas would have had that on clave to

636
00:34:31.119 --> 00:34:33.639
<v Speaker 1>rebuild instead. The great State of Israel does the world

637
00:34:33.679 --> 00:34:36.679
<v Speaker 1>a great service today. Thank you Bb, Thank you Israel,

638

<v Speaker 1>thank you the people of Israel. Thank you Ryan Shuley,
