I mean, you are never in more 9 00:00:26.960 --> 00:00:30.160 danger than you are unless you're a member of our military, 10 00:00:30.839 --> 00:00:34.200 police fire. You are never in more danger than you 11 00:00:34.280 --> 00:00:38.079 are when you are on the roadway. Yet systematically we 12 00:00:38.119 --> 00:00:42.039 see these lefties, we see the Colorado Democratic Party put 13 00:00:42.119 --> 00:00:44.560 you and your loved ones in more and more danger 14 00:00:44.759 --> 00:00:48.000 each and every day. And at what point are the 15 00:00:48.039 --> 00:00:50.479 voters going to say, I'm sorry on that issue alone, 16 00:00:51.200 --> 00:00:54.200 we cannot elect these Democrats anymore. Well, a big part 17 00:00:54.200 --> 00:00:55.600 of the problem I'm about to tell you about the 18 00:00:55.640 --> 00:00:58.679 latest outrage, but a big part of the problem is 19 00:00:58.679 --> 00:01:02.280 that people just don't know this right because stories like 20 00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:05.280 the story I'm about to give you that was done 21 00:01:05.359 --> 00:01:07.519 so well by Sean Boyd at CBS four. 22 00:01:08.239 --> 00:01:10.239 She's an exception because so. 23 00:01:10.200 --> 00:01:14.000 Many in the media now are just aligned to one 24 00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:17.599 extent or another, usually a lot with the Colorado Democratic Party, 25 00:01:17.719 --> 00:01:22.519 so they won't grab onto and pursue stories in the 26 00:01:22.640 --> 00:01:25.159 kind of detail, the kind of depth, the kind of 27 00:01:25.239 --> 00:01:28.959 day after day follow up that it takes for busy 28 00:01:29.000 --> 00:01:31.879 people and the people of Colorado are busy to really 29 00:01:31.959 --> 00:01:35.599 become aware of what's going on out there now. Far 30 00:01:35.680 --> 00:01:38.599 too often, right, people are becoming aware when all of 31 00:01:38.599 --> 00:01:42.000 a sudden, you know, it's their wife or their husband 32 00:01:42.000 --> 00:01:43.760 who doesn't come home, or they're a kid who doesn't 33 00:01:43.799 --> 00:01:48.200 come home tonight because of the carnage on our roadways. 34 00:01:48.719 --> 00:01:51.280 But yeah, this is not the kind of story the 35 00:01:51.319 --> 00:01:54.359 most in the media are going to sink their teeth into, 36 00:01:54.439 --> 00:01:57.680 because again it's not good for Colorado Democrats. So credit 37 00:01:57.719 --> 00:02:03.000 to Sean Boyd who is so often, so very independent 38 00:02:03.319 --> 00:02:07.120 and does such valuable reporting. So here's a story you're 39 00:02:07.120 --> 00:02:09.919 going to hear, and this is out of the eighteenth 40 00:02:10.000 --> 00:02:12.680 Repo County.

The Arapaho County District Attorney's office offered him 50 00:02:41.280 --> 00:02:45.800 probation community service as punishment for taking a life. 51 00:02:45.879 --> 00:02:48.960 Tonight, annisaur you'll see only on CBS Colorado, your reporter 52 00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:52.280 Sean Voyd talks to that young woman's parents, who say 53 00:02:52.439 --> 00:02:55.360 their plea deal devalues their daughter's life. 54 00:02:56.080 --> 00:02:58.879 She really spent her life wanting to help. 55 00:02:58.719 --> 00:03:03.159 People, John says his daughter Caitlin was a born caregiver, 56 00:03:03.439 --> 00:03:09.479 protective and supportive of siblings and strangers alike.

The suspect, who had kids in 73 00:03:59.840 --> 00:04:03.400 the car with him, was fifteen. He was not only 74 00:04:03.520 --> 00:04:06.800 driving illegally, he was in the country illegally. 75 00:04:06.919 --> 00:04:11.039 DIA's office said that this would be no plea deal case, 76 00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:14.120 so they were not going to offer anything any concession. 77 00:04:14.360 --> 00:04:18.040 That changed, he says, when the Arapo County District Attorney's 78 00:04:18.079 --> 00:04:20.519 office changed hands a few months later. 79 00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:23.079 Under Daamy Padden. 80 00:04:22.839 --> 00:04:25.759 The teen who faced up to two years in youth 81 00:04:25.839 --> 00:04:30.759 corrections for vehicular homicide was offered two years probation if 82 00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:31.639 he pled guilty. 83 00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:32.839 Why the change. 84 00:04:32.920 --> 00:04:36.439 If he had taken a firearm and recklessly just shot 85 00:04:36.480 --> 00:04:38.079 it and killed. 86 00:04:37.879 --> 00:04:40.879 Somebody, this would be a different case. They would be 87 00:04:40.920 --> 00:04:43.000 pushing it completely different. So there's no. 88 00:04:42.920 --> 00:04:47.800 Deterrence, no financial liability either. Despite nearly a million in 89 00:04:47.920 --> 00:04:52.279 medical bills, the jeep was uninsured, and the juvenile's mom 90 00:04:52.360 --> 00:04:57.199 says he took it without permission, so she isn't responsible either. 91 00:04:57.360 --> 00:05:00.920 Immigration and the criminal justicism and all the things landed 92 00:05:00.959 --> 00:05:05.680 together one day in Aurora, and now I sit. 93 00:05:05.560 --> 00:05:09.240 Here today with without a daughter.

He says before 105 00:05:45.519 --> 00:05:49.120 any plea deal, they consider the impact on the victims 106 00:05:49.120 --> 00:05:53.959 and the community, the characteristics of the defendants such as age, culpability, 107 00:05:54.000 --> 00:05:58.600 and level of remorse, and the goals of sentencing, including deterrence, 108 00:05:58.759 --> 00:06:04.560 rehabilitating the affe, treating similarly situated offenders equitably, and holding 109 00:06:04.639 --> 00:06:08.720 each offender accountable, he says, in this case, the negotiated 110 00:06:08.759 --> 00:06:11.439 sentence acknowledges the seriousness of. 111 00:06:11.399 --> 00:06:12.879 This preventable tragedy. 112 00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:16.600 In addition to one hundred hours community service, the team 113 00:06:16.720 --> 00:06:20.079 is required to attend school and not break any lass. 114 00:06:20.279 --> 00:06:23.439 If he does, he goes back to court under the plea, 115 00:06:23.480 --> 00:06:27.879 his probation is not automatically revoked because he's a juvenile. 116 00:06:28.040 --> 00:06:29.040 The case is sealed. 117 00:06:29.360 --> 00:06:33.040 The Weavers say the defendant never apologize.

And you're 128 00:07:05.560 --> 00:07:08.120 cutting deals like that so routinely. The DA is not 129 00:07:08.199 --> 00:07:09.000 even in the loop. 130 00:07:10.000 --> 00:07:10.720 My goodness. 131 00:07:11.000 --> 00:07:14.519 See this should outrage each and every Colorado But where 132 00:07:14.519 --> 00:07:16.959 else will you see this in the press?

Something like this, in my opinion, 143 00:07:40.040 --> 00:07:41.040 cannot happen. Listen. 144 00:07:41.040 --> 00:07:44.000 I don't practice criminal law, that disclaimer, but I don't 145 00:07:44.000 --> 00:07:48.560 think something like this can happen without political ideology working 146 00:07:48.560 --> 00:07:49.279 its way into it. 147 00:07:49.319 --> 00:07:49.879 How could it? 148 00:07:50.720 --> 00:07:57.879 How could it probation probation ninety in a residential area, killing. 149 00:07:57.519 --> 00:08:02.279 Someone like this? Yeah, yeah, this thing stinks. 150 00:08:03.720 --> 00:08:06.000 It stinks, but it is so typical of what we 151 00:08:06.079 --> 00:08:07.959 have from the left now right, and you see it 152 00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:09.680 play out in so many different ways.

So for okay, 158 00:08:27.360 --> 00:08:30.920 they can kidnap your daughter, and license plate readers obviously 159 00:08:30.959 --> 00:08:34.639 are essential in solving all sorts of crimes, but something 160 00:08:34.720 --> 00:08:37.720 like that that could be vital in saving a kidnapped 161 00:08:37.759 --> 00:08:40.200 child or something like that, don't know, far more important 162 00:08:40.200 --> 00:08:43.279 that we protect people here illegally. I mean, this is 163 00:08:43.639 --> 00:08:46.159 you can't even call it twilight zone stuff anymore. The 164 00:08:46.240 --> 00:08:49.639 Left isn't even trying to hide it that the Left 165 00:08:49.919 --> 00:08:55.679 has put a marker down people here illegally who commit crimes. 166 00:08:55.720 --> 00:08:59.360 We're not just talking about people here illegally. People here 167 00:08:59.399 --> 00:09:05.360 illegally who commits serious crimes are much more important, a 168 00:09:05.440 --> 00:09:09.200 much higher priority to the Democratic Party in Colorado now 169 00:09:09.600 --> 00:09:10.919 than innocent citizens. 170 00:09:11.200 --> 00:09:13.679 They're not even trying to hide it on the left anymore. 171 00:09:14.240 --> 00:09:14.919 It's just a. 172 00:09:14.840 --> 00:09:18.000 Big double middle finger.

Maybe they are right about that, 175 00:09:24.039 --> 00:09:27.399 but they have obviously made that calculation, and we see 176 00:09:27.399 --> 00:09:30.440 it in a hundred different ways, including that one, and 177 00:09:30.480 --> 00:09:31.519 that one just makes. 178 00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:33.480 You want to throw up, right, just makes you want 179 00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:34.080 to throw up. 180 00:09:34.440 --> 00:09:36.879 Three or three someone three eight two five five text 181 00:09:36.960 --> 00:09:39.360 DN five seven seven three nine. 182 00:09:39.399 --> 00:09:40.879 You're on the Dankaplas Show. 183 00:09:47.639 --> 00:09:51.519 And now back to the dan Kaplas Show podcast joining us. 184 00:09:51.559 --> 00:09:54.600 If this doesn't outrage you, you need to see a cardiologist, 185 00:09:54.679 --> 00:09:58.840 a neurologist, or both.

Because I'm here to. 194 00:10:24.360 --> 00:10:28.000 Tell you, you know, don't blame the judges until we get lost. 195 00:10:28.279 --> 00:10:30.759 And this one, this one, hey, they have plenty of 196 00:10:30.799 --> 00:10:31.879 laws in place to do. 197 00:10:31.799 --> 00:10:32.519 The right thing there. 198 00:10:32.559 --> 00:10:35.720 I think that's just a this is a political ideology 199 00:10:35.759 --> 00:10:38.799 at work. When when political idea, in my opinion, when 200 00:10:38.840 --> 00:10:43.440 political ideologies work their way into prosecutor's offices, the whole 201 00:10:43.519 --> 00:10:47.480 system is distorted. The whole system is distorted. I think 202 00:10:47.519 --> 00:10:51.399 there's a sacred trust in a prosecutor's office. And I 203 00:10:51.440 --> 00:10:54.879 mean that literally, right, because a prosecutor can ruin somebody 204 00:10:54.879 --> 00:10:57.960 with just a false allegation. There's a sacred trust when 205 00:10:58.000 --> 00:11:02.799 somebody becomes a Prosecutorolitical ideology does not enter into it. Now, 206 00:11:02.879 --> 00:11:06.240 some people follow that, some Democrats follow it, some Republicans 207 00:11:06.279 --> 00:11:06.720 follow it. 208 00:11:07.039 --> 00:11:09.159 Some people violate it. And when they. 209 00:11:09.159 --> 00:11:13.240 Violate it, you look at the magnitude of the destruction. 210 00:11:13.320 --> 00:11:15.480 If you were hearing this last segment and you could 211 00:11:15.519 --> 00:11:18.759 hear those parents a great Sean Boyd piece, it just 212 00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:21.240 totally heartbroken and despondent that. 213 00:11:21.440 --> 00:11:22.360 I mean, what's their daughter? 214 00:11:22.440 --> 00:11:26.120 That their daughter's everything everything in the world, and the 215 00:11:26.159 --> 00:11:27.120 system treats. 216 00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:29.039 Are like nothing, Like she's meaningless. 217 00:11:29.200 --> 00:11:32.679 All the concern is for for the perpetrator, all the 218 00:11:32.720 --> 00:11:33.759 little perpetrator. 219 00:11:33.799 --> 00:11:35.279 Oh he didn't even. 220 00:11:35.159 --> 00:11:38.480 Apologize, by the way, all the concerns for the perpetrator. 221 00:11:38.720 --> 00:11:39.200 Probation. 222 00:11:40.279 --> 00:11:42.559 Yeah, three out three seven one three eight two five 223 00:11:42.720 --> 00:11:46.399 five texts d An five seven seven three nine. Ryan, 224 00:11:46.399 --> 00:11:48.279 do you think if that let's say that fifteen year 225 00:11:48.279 --> 00:11:52.840 old go ninety and a forty five, which is vahicular homicide. 226 00:11:53.080 --> 00:11:56.039 It's going ninety in a forty five. Let's say he 227 00:11:56.240 --> 00:11:59.799 was wearing a maga hat. Yeah, Yeah, well, let's say 228 00:11:59.840 --> 00:12:02.519 you is an ardent Donald Trump supporter wearing a mega 229 00:12:02.519 --> 00:12:04.759 hat joy writing through her neighborhood. 230 00:12:05.759 --> 00:12:07.000 What do you think would have been done here? 231 00:12:07.039 --> 00:12:09.039 It's funny you asked that, because I asked that very 232 00:12:09.120 --> 00:12:12.320 question of George Brockler, the DA in the twenty third, 233 00:12:12.440 --> 00:12:16.039 whose youngest is fifteen, and he agreed with me the 234 00:12:16.080 --> 00:12:18.960 book would be thrown at that young person. Yeah, but 235 00:12:19.080 --> 00:12:21.279 just side theory. Did this is what I talk about 236 00:12:21.320 --> 00:12:26.000 George too, Amy Padden. This was purposeful and George pointed 237 00:12:26.000 --> 00:12:29.279 this out, the word equitable in terms of how this 238 00:12:29.440 --> 00:12:32.480 is adjudicated. She knew if there was some kind of 239 00:12:32.519 --> 00:12:36.399 serious criminal element to this case, that this young man, 240 00:12:36.480 --> 00:12:39.320 his entire family would be more likely to be deported. 241 00:12:39.399 --> 00:12:42.360 And I think this was a bulwark against that. That 242 00:12:42.480 --> 00:12:44.320 was the motivation, And if. 243 00:12:44.159 --> 00:12:46.440 That was the motivation, I wouldn't disagree with Georgia. And 244 00:12:46.440 --> 00:12:50.240 if that was the motivation, that's just obscene, right, That 245 00:12:50.320 --> 00:12:54.039 is an ultimate miscarriage of justice. But that is what 246 00:12:54.080 --> 00:12:56.240 we have going on with the left so often now. 247 00:12:56.279 --> 00:12:58.200 So my question is. 248 00:12:57.919 --> 00:13:00.960 Is do the people of Colorado care? First? Do they 249 00:13:01.000 --> 00:13:01.600 know right? 250 00:13:01.679 --> 00:13:04.840 I mean, you know, tremendous job done, by Sean Boyd 251 00:13:04.840 --> 00:13:06.000 and CBS News on that. 252 00:13:06.120 --> 00:13:09.159 But do they even know. If they knew, I think 253 00:13:09.240 --> 00:13:09.840 they would care. 254 00:13:09.879 --> 00:13:12.919 The problem is, is a story like this that should 255 00:13:12.960 --> 00:13:15.799 be front page and should be followed up for days? Yeah, 256 00:13:16.320 --> 00:13:19.320 it's it's just one very fine reporter at a good station, 257 00:13:19.480 --> 00:13:22.159 and then the left just trusts it's going to disappear 258 00:13:22.360 --> 00:13:25.120 right three out three seven, three eight two five five 259 00:13:25.159 --> 00:13:29.159 text d an five seven seven three nine. Before we 260 00:13:29.200 --> 00:13:31.320 get onto more serious stuff, I know you count on 261 00:13:31.399 --> 00:13:35.559 me for some really deep, courageous insights on sports, and 262 00:13:35.679 --> 00:13:39.480 I've consistently delivered on that for you over the decades. 263 00:13:39.519 --> 00:13:42.120 And I've got another one for you now. Jamal Murray, 264 00:13:42.159 --> 00:13:46.720 who is one of the most talented players in the NBA. 265 00:13:47.919 --> 00:13:50.759 Jamal Murray, you see, goes on these incredibly hot streaks 266 00:13:50.759 --> 00:13:53.679 and then other times not so hot. But he's now 267 00:13:53.799 --> 00:13:57.960 questionable for tonight's critical Game six in the playoffs because 268 00:13:58.000 --> 00:14:00.600 he has an illness that he's been fighting through for 269 00:14:00.639 --> 00:14:03.879 a couple of games. I'm here to tell you if 270 00:14:04.000 --> 00:14:07.720 Jamal Murray plays sick tonight, he's going to play great. 271 00:14:08.519 --> 00:14:09.480 And here's why. 272 00:14:09.600 --> 00:14:12.919 Because everything in life is psychological, right, I mean, for everybody, 273 00:14:12.960 --> 00:14:16.120 every human, And it's like Michael Jordan had that tremendous 274 00:14:16.159 --> 00:14:19.559 game in the Flu game in the playoffs. There's something 275 00:14:19.559 --> 00:14:22.159 about when when hey in a situation like this, when 276 00:14:22.159 --> 00:14:25.120 somebody's sick, it just takes all the pressure off, right, 277 00:14:25.200 --> 00:14:28.080 that there are no expectations the guy or gal's playing sick. 278 00:14:28.120 --> 00:14:30.840 It just frees somebody up to just let it rip. 279 00:14:31.519 --> 00:14:34.080 So if he plays sick tonight, I bet we see 280 00:14:34.519 --> 00:14:38.720 a career game and a Nuggets victory as a result. 281 00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:41.960 So we shall see dan. Can I step in and 282 00:14:42.000 --> 00:14:44.679 deport this scumbag. I would not refer to this defendant 283 00:14:44.720 --> 00:14:46.600 as a scumbag. I'd refer to him as a killer. 284 00:14:47.000 --> 00:14:51.080 Vehicular homicide is homicide, you know, just like the killer 285 00:14:51.120 --> 00:14:54.720 trucker up on I seventy right, who decides, Okay, my 286 00:14:54.799 --> 00:14:57.440 brakes are overheating. I can see my brakes are overheating. 287 00:14:57.600 --> 00:14:59.080 I'm going to get back in the truck and drive 288 00:14:59.120 --> 00:15:01.720 down the mountain anyway. And then he decides, rather than 289 00:15:01.759 --> 00:15:03.519 to ditch the truck off the side of the road, 290 00:15:03.519 --> 00:15:05.240 he's just going to drive right into the back of 291 00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:09.039 stop rush hour traffic and predictably incinerate a whole bunch 292 00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:14.960 of people, right, that's murder. Vehicular homicide is homicide. Can 293 00:15:15.000 --> 00:15:20.720 I step in and deport A great question here, great question, 294 00:15:21.080 --> 00:15:23.240 you know, I'd ask one of our immigration experts to 295 00:15:23.320 --> 00:15:26.240 call and fill us in. You've heard the theory voice 296 00:15:26.279 --> 00:15:30.080 that the reason that there weren't wasn't proper sentencing of this, 297 00:15:30.519 --> 00:15:32.759 And don't blame the court. This is on the da 298 00:15:33.000 --> 00:15:36.440 of this individual is to protect him for deportation. So 299 00:15:37.200 --> 00:15:40.559 whether he could still be deported Listen if and I 300 00:15:40.639 --> 00:15:42.960 have no idea what the status of his parents are 301 00:15:43.080 --> 00:15:46.840 anything like that, but in theory, if you had somebody 302 00:15:47.120 --> 00:15:50.200 and they're here illegally, their parents are here illegally, et cetera, 303 00:15:51.200 --> 00:15:56.519 then they would be subject to deportation under our nation's laws. Now, 304 00:15:56.559 --> 00:15:59.200 this administration has said, and I think it's a very 305 00:15:59.200 --> 00:16:02.000 wise move on their heart. Their focus is folks here 306 00:16:03.000 --> 00:16:07.320 illegally who have committed other crimes. So as I'm sitting 307 00:16:07.360 --> 00:16:09.240 here right now, I can't think of any reason why 308 00:16:09.320 --> 00:16:12.960 there couldn't be a deportation. Three h three someone three 309 00:16:13.039 --> 00:16:17.000 eight two five five texts d An five seven seven three. 310 00:16:17.200 --> 00:16:21.399 Nine Dan, just really quick and further that point, why 311 00:16:21.440 --> 00:16:24.159 should that young man still be here, committed a crime, 312 00:16:24.240 --> 00:16:24.919 absolutely no. 313 00:16:24.919 --> 00:16:26.600 Reason, old a woman, no reashy. 314 00:16:26.919 --> 00:16:27.120 Right. 315 00:16:27.399 --> 00:16:29.320 Well, but but this goes you're right, but this goes 316 00:16:29.360 --> 00:16:33.519 back to what we've talked about before, which is, you know, 317 00:16:34.120 --> 00:16:36.039 this is what I've done for forty years as a lawyer, 318 00:16:36.039 --> 00:16:36.960 this is what I do today. 319 00:16:36.960 --> 00:16:39.159 I'm going to court next week. But and we don't 320 00:16:39.200 --> 00:16:40.159 have this element Netra. 321 00:16:40.360 --> 00:16:43.679 But the point being that I work with an awful 322 00:16:43.679 --> 00:16:46.559 lot of parents who have had the worst thing happen 323 00:16:46.639 --> 00:16:50.919 that's even imaginable, and had their child killed. And when 324 00:16:51.000 --> 00:16:53.399 the child is killed by anybody, right, it's just again, 325 00:16:53.440 --> 00:16:57.000 it's the worst nightmare. When the child's killed by somebody 326 00:16:57.039 --> 00:16:59.559 who shouldn't have even been in the country to begin with, 327 00:16:59.639 --> 00:17:05.559 it's an added layer of horror and torment. And so yeah, 328 00:17:06.359 --> 00:17:09.519 this individual should not have even been here to begin with. 329 00:17:10.200 --> 00:17:11.920 And that goes to my point too. 330 00:17:12.000 --> 00:17:14.839 If the first act an individual takes, or in this case, 331 00:17:15.039 --> 00:17:19.240 this young man's family takes, is they totally disregard, disobeyed, 332 00:17:19.279 --> 00:17:22.920 dishonor our immigration laws. What is their motivation or incentive 333 00:17:22.960 --> 00:17:25.599 to follow any of our other laws, including our driving laws. 334 00:17:25.759 --> 00:17:29.400 Well, Ryan, and to that point, this is an invitation 335 00:17:30.279 --> 00:17:31.920 This is consistent. 336 00:17:31.440 --> 00:17:33.559 With so many other things we've been talking. 337 00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:36.920 About here where the Democratic Party in Colorado, the left 338 00:17:37.000 --> 00:17:40.519 is openly inviting and encouraging people to come here illegally. 339 00:17:40.680 --> 00:17:42.960 Look at the law they just passed that says you 340 00:17:43.000 --> 00:17:45.960 can get a driver's license here the same day you arrive. 341 00:17:46.279 --> 00:17:49.000 You don't even have to express an intent to stay here. 342 00:17:49.799 --> 00:17:52.799 Another law they passed you can use an ID that's 343 00:17:53.039 --> 00:17:57.279 over nine years expired. Right, they are openly inviting folks 344 00:17:57.279 --> 00:17:59.480 illegally to come here, and this is another way to 345 00:17:59.480 --> 00:18:03.000 do it right, Because the message you're sending to folks 346 00:18:03.000 --> 00:18:05.440 from around the world who are thinking of coming here illegally, 347 00:18:05.720 --> 00:18:08.279 or folks here illegally who are thinking of leaving rather 348 00:18:08.319 --> 00:18:11.599 than be deported, the message you're sending is we want you, 349 00:18:11.720 --> 00:18:14.119 we welcome you, we protect you. You can come in 350 00:18:14.160 --> 00:18:17.839 here and you can engage in a homicide that kills 351 00:18:17.880 --> 00:18:19.720 an innocent young lady, and. 352 00:18:19.599 --> 00:18:23.000 We will protect you. That's the message. 353 00:18:23.079 --> 00:18:27.559 That's the message coming from that DA. We will protect 354 00:18:27.599 --> 00:18:30.720 you even if you come here and kill even if 355 00:18:30.759 --> 00:18:34.160 you come here and kill an innocent young woman, we 356 00:18:34.240 --> 00:18:37.880 will protect you, mister or ms illegal immigrant. 357 00:18:38.000 --> 00:18:40.079 That is the clear message being sent. 358 00:18:40.839 --> 00:18:44.039 How does that do anything other than attract and encourage 359 00:18:44.519 --> 00:18:45.480 illegal immigration. 360 00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:47.799 But that's the currency the left. Now. You want to 361 00:18:47.880 --> 00:18:49.880 rise up in the left politically, well you. 362 00:18:49.920 --> 00:18:53.880 Better appeal to those hard, hard far left radicals with 363 00:18:53.960 --> 00:18:56.759 the big checkbooks who are writing those big checks to 364 00:18:56.880 --> 00:18:58.119 up and coming Democrats. 365 00:18:58.359 --> 00:18:59.480 Screw the people. 366 00:19:05.880 --> 00:19:09.599 You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast not in 367 00:19:09.640 --> 00:19:10.119 the habit. 368 00:19:10.000 --> 00:19:11.000 Of praising Donald Trump. 369 00:19:11.039 --> 00:19:13.680 But I gotta tell you, the last week or so 370 00:19:13.759 --> 00:19:16.960 in the Middle East, Ukraine, Russia is a different story. 371 00:19:17.160 --> 00:19:19.759 The last week in the Middle East. I go into 372 00:19:19.799 --> 00:19:23.039 the week fearing that the Prime Minister of Israel is 373 00:19:23.359 --> 00:19:26.960 hell bent on going to war with her on. I 374 00:19:27.079 --> 00:19:29.440 go into the week worried that we're going to miss 375 00:19:29.960 --> 00:19:32.839 the thread of an opportunity in Syria for the new 376 00:19:32.880 --> 00:19:33.640 leadership there. 377 00:19:33.799 --> 00:19:34.839 And I gotta tell you, I. 378 00:19:34.880 --> 00:19:36.799 Think the President has in this last week or so 379 00:19:36.880 --> 00:19:38.759 played the Middle East pretty darn well. 380 00:19:39.759 --> 00:19:41.799 You know, this just goes to the corruption of most 381 00:19:41.839 --> 00:19:44.279 of the American media. What just happened in the Mid East, 382 00:19:44.279 --> 00:19:46.880 and we played a lot of sound is is Donald 383 00:19:46.920 --> 00:19:51.799 Trump had what is probably the most consequential Mid East 384 00:19:51.839 --> 00:19:55.720 visit of any president in our lifetime. It has the potential, 385 00:19:55.759 --> 00:19:59.480 the very real potential to do a major reset in 386 00:19:59.519 --> 00:20:01.559 the Mid East that will benefit this nation in the 387 00:20:01.599 --> 00:20:04.559 world for one hundred years to come. And it's pretty 388 00:20:04.599 --> 00:20:08.079 much crickets in most of the media right because of that, 389 00:20:08.720 --> 00:20:12.559 because it was so successful now it isn't guaranteed to 390 00:20:12.559 --> 00:20:16.640 work long term, but it's a major new doctrine with 391 00:20:16.720 --> 00:20:21.799 tremendous upside possibilities while still protecting and remaining loyal to 392 00:20:21.880 --> 00:20:24.799 our great Ali Israel, and perhaps a better route to 393 00:20:24.839 --> 00:20:26.920 get to protecting Israel, which. 394 00:20:26.839 --> 00:20:28.000 Must be done at all costs. 395 00:20:29.079 --> 00:20:31.839 Yeah, but most of the media just shuts it out 396 00:20:31.839 --> 00:20:34.319 now what we're talking about right now, and it should 397 00:20:34.400 --> 00:20:37.240 be the highest priority for you, because you and your family, 398 00:20:37.279 --> 00:20:39.319 what you care about most in the world, never in 399 00:20:39.359 --> 00:20:41.960 more danger in all likelihood than when you're on the 400 00:20:42.000 --> 00:20:46.799 roadways and you've got the Democrats in Colorado absolutely determined, 401 00:20:47.680 --> 00:20:51.319
