<v Speaker 1>Yeah, sometimes you just have to enjoy the fruits of

8
00:00:19.600 --> 00:00:20.480
<v Speaker 1>your victory, right.

9
00:00:20.559 --> 00:00:20.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

10
00:00:20.800 --> 00:00:24.120
<v Speaker 1>We fight for truth justice in the American way every day,

11
00:00:24.640 --> 00:00:28.239
<v Speaker 1>lots of different ways, but sometimes you just have to

12
00:00:28.440 --> 00:00:31.399
<v Speaker 1>savor the w's And I think this is one of

13
00:00:31.440 --> 00:00:33.320
<v Speaker 1>these days. I mean, you know, we'll have some other

14
00:00:33.320 --> 00:00:35.359
<v Speaker 1>stuff to talk about, but we.

15
00:00:35.320 --> 00:00:37.560
<v Speaker 3>Can't just drive past so fast.

16
00:00:38.200 --> 00:00:41.560
<v Speaker 1>You know, the monumental event, you can't even call it

17
00:00:41.560 --> 00:00:47.039
<v Speaker 1>a speech, right, It was a monumental political undressing, a

18
00:00:47.119 --> 00:00:51.159
<v Speaker 1>monumental political triumph that President Trump had on Tuesday night.

19
00:00:51.240 --> 00:00:53.280
<v Speaker 1>Plus it's just so much fun and there's more to

20
00:00:53.320 --> 00:00:56.960
<v Speaker 1>talk about there, so we'll continue to enjoy that and

21
00:00:57.039 --> 00:01:00.200
<v Speaker 1>talk about, you know, the importance of it going forward.

22
00:01:00.600 --> 00:01:04.000
<v Speaker 1>And then we also have to enjoy the hearing yesterday

23
00:01:04.040 --> 00:01:07.120
<v Speaker 1>with Lawless Mike and some of these other sanctuary city mayors.

24
00:01:07.159 --> 00:01:11.159
<v Speaker 1>And again against the backdrop of wait a second, we

25
00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:15.239
<v Speaker 1>already know we've won this, right, It's kind of like

26
00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:17.719
<v Speaker 1>being a Christian, you already know who wins in the end, right,

27
00:01:17.799 --> 00:01:21.359
<v Speaker 1>but we already know that that politically, Trump and the

28
00:01:21.400 --> 00:01:27.000
<v Speaker 1>GOP have won this issue. And now you have these outliers,

29
00:01:27.519 --> 00:01:29.959
<v Speaker 1>you know, like a handful of people still fighting World

30
00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:32.640
<v Speaker 1>War two forty years later in a jungle somewhere. You

31
00:01:32.719 --> 00:01:36.640
<v Speaker 1>got these outliers like lawless Mike, you know, just insisting

32
00:01:36.760 --> 00:01:39.799
<v Speaker 1>that the no the protection of people here illegally who

33
00:01:39.799 --> 00:01:42.040
<v Speaker 1>have committed other crimes and ended up in our jails

34
00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:43.840
<v Speaker 1>is the top priority of the mayor.

35
00:01:44.359 --> 00:01:46.079
<v Speaker 3>You know, you've already won.

36
00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:49.599
<v Speaker 1>The battles, so you just have to enjoy as the

37
00:01:49.680 --> 00:01:52.719
<v Speaker 1>layers start to unravel. So we're going to play some

38
00:01:52.760 --> 00:01:55.799
<v Speaker 1>more sound from that hearing on the Hill yesterday, So

39
00:01:56.400 --> 00:01:56.920
<v Speaker 1>enjoy that.

40
00:01:57.000 --> 00:01:59.239
<v Speaker 3>And then but I want to open with the.

41
00:01:59.280 --> 00:02:02.760
<v Speaker 1>Latest piece of evidence that just proves true what we

42
00:02:02.879 --> 00:02:05.599
<v Speaker 1>talked about all summer leading up to election day, when

43
00:02:05.640 --> 00:02:08.919
<v Speaker 1>the constant messaging here was, Hey, just relax, enjoy this.

44
00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:10.159
<v Speaker 3>Trump's got it. He's going to win.

45
00:02:10.199 --> 00:02:13.520
<v Speaker 1>There's no way America's electing Kamala Harris. And one big

46
00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:17.120
<v Speaker 1>reason for that is the absolutely brilliant Trump ad that

47
00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:20.199
<v Speaker 1>Elon Musk funded over one hundred million dollars worth, which

48
00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:24.520
<v Speaker 1>decidedly tipped the scales in his favor, which just said, no, no,

49
00:02:24.719 --> 00:02:28.520
<v Speaker 1>this is goofy lunacy. You know, no men in women's

50
00:02:28.520 --> 00:02:32.840
<v Speaker 1>bathrooms or showers or sports that this is insanity and

51
00:02:32.879 --> 00:02:36.240
<v Speaker 1>it's got hand. And so we have seen I think

52
00:02:36.280 --> 00:02:40.560
<v Speaker 1>the first top tier capitulation on that, in the form

53
00:02:40.560 --> 00:02:42.639
<v Speaker 1>of Gavin Newsom. I'll play that sound for you now.

54
00:02:42.879 --> 00:02:47.199
<v Speaker 1>But then the question is how soon do the others follow?

55
00:02:47.639 --> 00:02:50.400
<v Speaker 1>How soon does Bennett follow? Right, because Michael Bennett, we

56
00:02:50.400 --> 00:02:52.199
<v Speaker 1>haven't had time to talk about this with all this

57
00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:55.199
<v Speaker 1>other fun stuff going on. Michael Bennett now apparently wants

58
00:02:55.240 --> 00:02:58.319
<v Speaker 1>to be governor of Colorado. And we'll put that right

59
00:02:58.400 --> 00:03:01.599
<v Speaker 1>up there, Ryan, with Jerry Polish for president, hicken Looper

60
00:03:01.599 --> 00:03:05.439
<v Speaker 1>for president, Been for president, and me for QB one

61
00:03:05.479 --> 00:03:08.439
<v Speaker 1>of the Broncos next year q BE two more realistic,

62
00:03:08.639 --> 00:03:13.840
<v Speaker 1>QB one probably unreachable. But how soon now do the

63
00:03:13.879 --> 00:03:16.080
<v Speaker 1>politically uncourageous follow?

64
00:03:16.240 --> 00:03:16.439
<v Speaker 4>Now?

65
00:03:16.719 --> 00:03:21.879
<v Speaker 1>Newsom himself is politically uncourageous. He would have been courageous

66
00:03:21.879 --> 00:03:24.080
<v Speaker 1>to have taken this position a couple of years ago,

67
00:03:24.599 --> 00:03:28.280
<v Speaker 1>mildly courageous to have taken it before election day, right

68
00:03:28.319 --> 00:03:30.960
<v Speaker 1>now that this is just survival, right, this is just

69
00:03:30.960 --> 00:03:35.439
<v Speaker 1>trying to find a lifeboat and survive. And Gavin Newsom's

70
00:03:35.439 --> 00:03:39.520
<v Speaker 1>surrendering on this how fast? Now do you see Polis,

71
00:03:39.560 --> 00:03:41.840
<v Speaker 1>do you see Bennett? Do you see hicken looperor do

72
00:03:41.879 --> 00:03:42.520
<v Speaker 1>you see others?

73
00:03:43.719 --> 00:03:46.400
<v Speaker 5>And so the issue of fairness is completely legit. And

74
00:03:46.759 --> 00:03:49.439
<v Speaker 5>I saw that the last couple of years. Boy did

75
00:03:49.479 --> 00:03:51.800
<v Speaker 5>I saw how you guys were able to weaponize that.

76
00:03:51.840 --> 00:03:53.159
<v Speaker 4>Issue another weaponized?

77
00:03:53.199 --> 00:03:55.759
<v Speaker 6>Don't that's well Webinar's maybe the jority of you're right,

78
00:03:56.039 --> 00:03:58.319
<v Speaker 6>but you were able to shine a light on highlight

79
00:03:58.400 --> 00:04:01.039
<v Speaker 6>it in a way that frankly, there are not that

80
00:04:01.120 --> 00:04:03.360
<v Speaker 6>many we're talking about I think N two a what

81
00:04:03.439 --> 00:04:04.360
<v Speaker 6>five hundred and ten thousand?

82
00:04:04.400 --> 00:04:06.560
<v Speaker 3>But no, no, but I just didn't realize.

83
00:04:06.159 --> 00:04:08.280
<v Speaker 7>It's eight hundred ninety medals in trophies that we know

84
00:04:08.360 --> 00:04:09.400
<v Speaker 7>of in the last five years.

85
00:04:09.439 --> 00:04:09.840
<v Speaker 3>That's a lot.

86
00:04:09.919 --> 00:04:12.120
<v Speaker 5>No, So I'm going to let me step back say

87
00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:15.240
<v Speaker 5>completely fair on the issue of fairness. I completely agree.

88
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:17.600
<v Speaker 5>So that's easy to call out the unfairness of that.

89
00:04:17.959 --> 00:04:20.879
<v Speaker 5>There's also a humility and a grace. You know that

90
00:04:21.319 --> 00:04:23.560
<v Speaker 5>these poor people are more likely to commit suicide, have

91
00:04:23.560 --> 00:04:27.160
<v Speaker 5>anxiety and depression and the way that people talk down

92
00:04:27.199 --> 00:04:29.959
<v Speaker 5>to vulnerable communities is an issue that I have a

93
00:04:30.000 --> 00:04:32.800
<v Speaker 5>hard time with as well. So both things I can

94
00:04:32.800 --> 00:04:35.319
<v Speaker 5>hold in my hand. How can we address this issue

95
00:04:35.600 --> 00:04:38.120
<v Speaker 5>with the kind of decency that I think you know,

96
00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:42.120
<v Speaker 5>it's inherent in you, but not always expressed on the issue.

97
00:04:42.519 --> 00:04:47.480
<v Speaker 1>So Newsome concedes this is unfair, right, and that is

98
00:04:47.519 --> 00:04:50.800
<v Speaker 1>a major concession. Yeah, he's trying to walk the fence

99
00:04:50.839 --> 00:04:54.160
<v Speaker 1>everything else, and that's how these people end up castrated, right,

100
00:04:54.879 --> 00:04:57.360
<v Speaker 1>because they just try to straddle the fence that that

101
00:04:57.519 --> 00:05:01.199
<v Speaker 1>is that's always going to end in. Castration can be literal,

102
00:05:01.319 --> 00:05:04.439
<v Speaker 1>it can be metaphorical, but in the case of a

103
00:05:04.519 --> 00:05:08.399
<v Speaker 1>male elected official, it's at least metaphorical because you end

104
00:05:08.480 --> 00:05:10.839
<v Speaker 1>up with nobody respecting you because you don't have the

105
00:05:10.879 --> 00:05:13.079
<v Speaker 1>courage to come down strongly on one side of the

106
00:05:13.120 --> 00:05:16.160
<v Speaker 1>fence or the other. But make no mistake about it,

107
00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:19.879
<v Speaker 1>that is a major surrender to acknowledge what no honest

108
00:05:19.920 --> 00:05:23.759
<v Speaker 1>person could have ever disputed, that it is profoundly unfair

109
00:05:24.480 --> 00:05:27.240
<v Speaker 1>for males to be playing in girls and women's sports.

110
00:05:27.480 --> 00:05:30.959
<v Speaker 1>So how quickly now that this piece of the dam

111
00:05:31.079 --> 00:05:34.199
<v Speaker 1>is broken how quickly do the others come along?

112
00:05:34.240 --> 00:05:35.600
<v Speaker 3>Will there be any holdouts?

113
00:05:35.720 --> 00:05:37.279
<v Speaker 1>So I'd love to get your taken that you can

114
00:05:37.319 --> 00:05:42.680
<v Speaker 1>text as DN five seven seven three nine. Will Bennett

115
00:05:42.759 --> 00:05:46.040
<v Speaker 1>be the first? Okay Bennett in Colorado? Because Bennett now

116
00:05:46.079 --> 00:05:52.120
<v Speaker 1>eyeing the governor's office reportedly no official announcement, Polis clearly

117
00:05:52.199 --> 00:05:55.360
<v Speaker 1>trying to eye the presidency. Who will be first? Will

118
00:05:55.399 --> 00:05:59.319
<v Speaker 1>it be Polis? Who would be very wise? And this

119
00:05:59.399 --> 00:06:02.639
<v Speaker 1>is where this is where his lack of political courage

120
00:06:02.720 --> 00:06:06.680
<v Speaker 1>is really hurt him, right, because Polis could have broken

121
00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:08.680
<v Speaker 1>out a couple of different ways. He should have come

122
00:06:08.720 --> 00:06:12.240
<v Speaker 1>out a long time ago, you know, against boys and

123
00:06:12.360 --> 00:06:15.519
<v Speaker 1>men in women's sports, and it would have helped him

124
00:06:15.600 --> 00:06:18.120
<v Speaker 1>so much politically, but again, just kind of lacks that

125
00:06:18.199 --> 00:06:22.800
<v Speaker 1>political courage and because he can't possibly believe it's okay, right,

126
00:06:23.600 --> 00:06:26.360
<v Speaker 1>So will it be Polis who takes that leap first?

127
00:06:26.560 --> 00:06:28.759
<v Speaker 1>Or will it be Bennett? Would love your take care.

128
00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:31.480
<v Speaker 1>Your answer may be none of the above, And I

129
00:06:31.480 --> 00:06:34.360
<v Speaker 1>hope you're right because it'll keep getting both of them thumped.

130
00:06:34.360 --> 00:06:35.879
<v Speaker 3>And I'm not saying Bennett's been thumbed.

131
00:06:35.879 --> 00:06:38.240
<v Speaker 1>He's sitting in the US Senate right, but he's been

132
00:06:38.720 --> 00:06:41.639
<v Speaker 1>a complete non factor in the US Senate.

133
00:06:41.639 --> 00:06:43.560
<v Speaker 3>I think everybody would have to acknowledge that.

134
00:06:44.519 --> 00:06:48.240
<v Speaker 1>Even Kyle referred to him as what the Cicada of

135
00:06:48.720 --> 00:06:50.040
<v Speaker 1>criticism or something.

136
00:06:49.839 --> 00:06:53.000
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, Cata of the Senate, because every thirteen years he

137
00:06:53.040 --> 00:06:54.040
<v Speaker 7>comes around and says something.

138
00:06:54.120 --> 00:06:56.360
<v Speaker 1>And guess what, if you are blessed to be handed

139
00:06:56.399 --> 00:06:59.439
<v Speaker 1>one of the most powerful and important positions in the world,

140
00:06:59.480 --> 00:07:02.560
<v Speaker 1>you never wantn't you're nickname to be cicada or phantom

141
00:07:02.759 --> 00:07:03.360
<v Speaker 1>or ghost?

142
00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:09.000
<v Speaker 3>Right right? So no, but it's common. It's common.

143
00:07:09.120 --> 00:07:11.639
<v Speaker 1>I love these tipping points, especially when they're tipping the

144
00:07:11.720 --> 00:07:14.800
<v Speaker 1>right way, and it's what we've expected for a long

145
00:07:14.879 --> 00:07:18.240
<v Speaker 1>time for obvious reason, because the other side on these

146
00:07:18.240 --> 00:07:23.279
<v Speaker 1>issues is absolutely crazy. And yeah eight f five zero

147
00:07:23.360 --> 00:07:26.480
<v Speaker 1>five eight two five five takes d an five seven

148
00:07:26.639 --> 00:07:27.680
<v Speaker 1>seven three nine.

149
00:07:27.839 --> 00:07:32.120
<v Speaker 3>So as Bill Murray says, we got that going for us, Dan.

150
00:07:32.079 --> 00:07:34.839
<v Speaker 1>Do you think Newsom really cares or plays a political card?

151
00:07:35.319 --> 00:07:38.519
<v Speaker 1>One thousand percent political for him? There's I don't think

152
00:07:38.560 --> 00:07:41.439
<v Speaker 1>anybody can look at Gavin Newsom and if any idea

153
00:07:41.600 --> 00:07:44.920
<v Speaker 1>what he truly cares about, right, And the good thing

154
00:07:45.000 --> 00:07:50.480
<v Speaker 1>is everybody gets that. Everybody gets that. Uh, this one's

155
00:07:50.519 --> 00:07:51.000
<v Speaker 1>too long.

156
00:07:51.079 --> 00:07:54.680
<v Speaker 3>I would have enjoyed that if it was shorter. All right,

157
00:07:54.879 --> 00:07:56.959
<v Speaker 3>let's do this. Let's get you some of this because.

158
00:07:56.800 --> 00:07:58.920
<v Speaker 1>Much of the show is going to be this really

159
00:07:59.040 --> 00:08:02.120
<v Speaker 1>really fun sound today, a lot of which we didn't

160
00:08:02.120 --> 00:08:04.199
<v Speaker 1>have time for yesterday, and some.

161
00:08:04.040 --> 00:08:06.279
<v Speaker 3>Of it we just wanted to enjoy. We just want

162
00:08:06.319 --> 00:08:07.360
<v Speaker 3>to enjoy some more.

163
00:08:08.040 --> 00:08:12.000
<v Speaker 1>Let's start for those like me who care deeply about Colorado.

164
00:08:12.399 --> 00:08:16.279
<v Speaker 1>Let's start with Congresswoman Bobert and a series of bites

165
00:08:16.959 --> 00:08:19.360
<v Speaker 1>as she questioned lawless Mike yesterday.

166
00:08:20.040 --> 00:08:23.439
<v Speaker 8>Thank you, mister Chairman, Mayor Mike Johnson. I hope we

167
00:08:23.480 --> 00:08:25.959
<v Speaker 8>can start off on a level field.

168
00:08:25.720 --> 00:08:27.120
<v Speaker 4>Of agreement here. So in your.

169
00:08:27.040 --> 00:08:31.800
<v Speaker 8>Testimony, you said that locals were asking Denver, what will

170
00:08:31.959 --> 00:08:35.159
<v Speaker 8>you do when they saw ten to eleven buses coming

171
00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:38.080
<v Speaker 8>in a day and forty two thousand illegal aliens entering

172
00:08:38.080 --> 00:08:41.360
<v Speaker 8>their city, Denver, what will you do? And in a

173
00:08:41.399 --> 00:08:44.840
<v Speaker 8>Fox thirty one interview in January, you blamed state law

174
00:08:45.200 --> 00:08:49.840
<v Speaker 8>for not allowing the city of Denver to coordinate with ICE,

175
00:08:50.000 --> 00:08:53.720
<v Speaker 8>resulting in Denver being a sanctuary city, saying, quote, the

176
00:08:53.799 --> 00:08:56.399
<v Speaker 8>whole state is bound by our state law in this,

177
00:08:56.480 --> 00:08:59.679
<v Speaker 8>which is pretty consistent in some of these practices like

178
00:08:59.679 --> 00:09:04.919
<v Speaker 8>every where in the state, we don't honor ice detainers.

179
00:09:05.200 --> 00:09:07.840
<v Speaker 3>End quote. I've demanded Governor Jared.

180
00:09:07.559 --> 00:09:13.320
<v Speaker 8>Poulis and the Colorado State legislature to repeal them. Douglas

181
00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:17.519
<v Speaker 8>County has led on a lawsuit to get those laws repealed.

182
00:09:17.759 --> 00:09:19.840
<v Speaker 1>What a brilliant way to start. I'm so impressed with

183
00:09:19.919 --> 00:09:22.519
<v Speaker 1>how prepared she was. And then she drops the hammer.

184
00:09:23.039 --> 00:09:27.960
<v Speaker 8>So, mister mayor, would you join me today and calling

185
00:09:28.200 --> 00:09:33.440
<v Speaker 8>and demanding that these sanctuary policies, these Colorado state laws

186
00:09:33.799 --> 00:09:34.480
<v Speaker 8>be repealed.

187
00:09:36.000 --> 00:09:38.080
<v Speaker 4>Thank you, Congresswoman bless or.

188
00:09:38.080 --> 00:09:41.159
<v Speaker 3>No, mister mayor, yes or no? Will you join me?

189
00:09:41.399 --> 00:09:43.200
<v Speaker 9>I do not believe the detaieral on needs to be changed,

190
00:09:43.200 --> 00:09:43.440
<v Speaker 9>so I can.

191
00:09:43.720 --> 00:09:45.240
<v Speaker 3>Oh, that is so beautiful.

192
00:09:45.600 --> 00:09:49.399
<v Speaker 1>What a brilliant start, because Congressman's absolutely right, he's been

193
00:09:49.559 --> 00:09:52.639
<v Speaker 1>hiding behind that. Hey, that's all the state. I'm bound

194
00:09:52.679 --> 00:09:56.279
<v Speaker 1>by state law. What a brilliant place to start, because

195
00:09:56.320 --> 00:09:59.240
<v Speaker 1>now far beyond yesterday, you know, he owns it.

196
00:09:59.679 --> 00:10:00.320
<v Speaker 2>He own it.

197
00:10:00.480 --> 00:10:02.559
<v Speaker 1>No, he wants this to be the state of the law,

198
00:10:02.600 --> 00:10:04.799
<v Speaker 1>which puts him in a bit of a pickle because

199
00:10:04.879 --> 00:10:10.000
<v Speaker 1>it's completely undefensible and it's getting innocent people raped and killed.

200
00:10:10.200 --> 00:10:13.720
<v Speaker 1>So brilliant start by Congressome and Bolbert. We'll have more

201
00:10:13.759 --> 00:10:13.879
<v Speaker 1>of that.

202
00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:17.240
<v Speaker 3>We'll have Gabe Evans questioning Lawless.

203
00:10:16.919 --> 00:10:20.519
<v Speaker 1>Mike and Jim Jordan had a really important riff as well,

204
00:10:20.600 --> 00:10:23.320
<v Speaker 1>and then we'll bring back some of the great Trump

205
00:10:23.519 --> 00:10:25.559
<v Speaker 1>highlights from that event.

206
00:10:25.720 --> 00:10:26.879
<v Speaker 3>Can't even call it a speech.

207
00:10:27.039 --> 00:10:31.759
<v Speaker 1>That event that beat down at transformational evening on Tuesday night.

208
00:10:32.039 --> 00:10:33.480
<v Speaker 3>You're on the Dan Capla Show.

209
00:10:39.679 --> 00:10:42.000
<v Speaker 4>And now back to the Dan Taplas Show podcast.

210
00:10:45.840 --> 00:10:48.679
<v Speaker 2>Because of the second item that we're going to display here,

211
00:10:48.799 --> 00:10:52.159
<v Speaker 2>which is the standard FBI fingerprint card, something that I

212
00:10:52.320 --> 00:10:54.360
<v Speaker 2>filled out for over a decade when I was a

213
00:10:54.399 --> 00:10:59.720
<v Speaker 2>police officer, which has those items as mandatory fields, location

214
00:10:59.840 --> 00:11:03.879
<v Speaker 2>of and then the citizenship. And so I've heard, being

215
00:11:03.919 --> 00:11:06.159
<v Speaker 2>a cop in the Denver metro area that police officers

216
00:11:06.200 --> 00:11:10.200
<v Speaker 2>in Denver are being told not to fill out those

217
00:11:10.320 --> 00:11:13.519
<v Speaker 2>mandatory fields in the FBI fingerprint card, which could potentially

218
00:11:13.559 --> 00:11:16.080
<v Speaker 2>indicate why you're unsure of how many of these crimes

219
00:11:16.120 --> 00:11:18.240
<v Speaker 2>are being committed by illegal immigrants in your city. So

220
00:11:18.320 --> 00:11:22.240
<v Speaker 2>the second question is will you allow Denver police officers

221
00:11:22.320 --> 00:11:24.559
<v Speaker 2>to fill out all of the information on an FBI

222
00:11:24.639 --> 00:11:28.399
<v Speaker 2>fingerprint card to including asking for and recording the citizenship status.

223
00:11:28.960 --> 00:11:34.440
<v Speaker 1>See this is absolutely brilliant, right, because what Johnston and

224
00:11:34.639 --> 00:11:37.919
<v Speaker 1>other lefties try to do is they try to say, hey, wait,

225
00:11:38.600 --> 00:11:41.440
<v Speaker 1>crime is down in the city since.

226
00:11:41.240 --> 00:11:43.000
<v Speaker 3>The quote newcomers arrived.

227
00:11:43.559 --> 00:11:46.240
<v Speaker 1>Well, first of all, I think they're wrong about that,

228
00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:49.519
<v Speaker 1>and they're manipulating statistics. But let's say for a second

229
00:11:49.559 --> 00:11:56.799
<v Speaker 1>they were right. Totally completely irrelevant. What's relevant is how

230
00:11:56.960 --> 00:11:59.559
<v Speaker 1>many crimes are being committed by people who.

231
00:11:59.440 --> 00:12:00.399
<v Speaker 3>Should not be here.

232
00:12:02.399 --> 00:12:07.399
<v Speaker 1>That's what's relevant, because no elected official can look a

233
00:12:07.519 --> 00:12:12.080
<v Speaker 1>victim or a victim survivor in the eye and justify

234
00:12:12.480 --> 00:12:15.879
<v Speaker 1>a crime committed by somebody who should not be here.

235
00:12:16.720 --> 00:12:20.879
<v Speaker 1>So Gabe Evans has zeroed in on what really matters

236
00:12:21.919 --> 00:12:23.960
<v Speaker 1>and what he has just uncovered, and you'll hear the

237
00:12:24.039 --> 00:12:29.399
<v Speaker 1>rest of it is that, yes, of course, Johnston, Polis.

238
00:12:29.240 --> 00:12:31.559
<v Speaker 3>All the other lefties in Colorado.

239
00:12:31.320 --> 00:12:36.600
<v Speaker 1>Are covering up that key piece of information, how many

240
00:12:36.720 --> 00:12:41.200
<v Speaker 1>crimes are being committed by people here illegally because they

241
00:12:41.360 --> 00:12:44.559
<v Speaker 1>don't want you to know the truth. If you knew

242
00:12:44.600 --> 00:12:47.519
<v Speaker 1>the truth, you would throw them out of office. That's

243
00:12:47.600 --> 00:12:50.720
<v Speaker 1>what's going on here. So great job by Gabe Evans.

244
00:12:50.759 --> 00:12:51.519
<v Speaker 1>Here's the rest of it.

245
00:12:53.200 --> 00:12:53.440
<v Speaker 3>Thank you.

246
00:12:53.519 --> 00:12:54.000
<v Speaker 4>Congressman.

247
00:12:54.480 --> 00:12:57.200
<v Speaker 9>Right now, under city ordinance, we do not ask someone

248
00:12:57.320 --> 00:13:00.480
<v Speaker 9>status a point of contact, and that does not prejudice

249
00:13:00.519 --> 00:13:01.440
<v Speaker 9>in any way our prosecution.

250
00:13:01.519 --> 00:13:02.360
<v Speaker 3>We believe it doesn't matters.

251
00:13:02.399 --> 00:13:03.960
<v Speaker 4>We're saying from thank you, mister crime.

252
00:13:04.399 --> 00:13:06.519
<v Speaker 3>So you're not aggressively redless.

253
00:13:06.679 --> 00:13:08.840
<v Speaker 2>So you're not filling out the FBI fingerprint card is

254
00:13:08.919 --> 00:13:10.879
<v Speaker 2>required right now.

255
00:13:10.840 --> 00:13:13.840
<v Speaker 9>We are filling out information when folks arrive, and none

256
00:13:13.840 --> 00:13:15.720
<v Speaker 9>of that information prevents us from prosecuting them to the

257
00:13:15.759 --> 00:13:16.799
<v Speaker 9>full extent of the law, which is.

258
00:13:16.799 --> 00:13:17.039
<v Speaker 4>What we do.

259
00:13:17.879 --> 00:13:18.720
<v Speaker 3>Thank you, mister mayor.

260
00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:21.519
<v Speaker 2>So not filling out the FBI fingerprint card, which would

261
00:13:21.519 --> 00:13:24.080
<v Speaker 2>directly contradict your statement that you want people who are

262
00:13:24.159 --> 00:13:27.159
<v Speaker 2>illegally present in the country and committing crimes to be

263
00:13:27.320 --> 00:13:29.399
<v Speaker 2>held to account for those crimes, and I.

264
00:13:29.799 --> 00:13:34.279
<v Speaker 1>Dropped the mic. That's absolutely brilliant. It proves the case.

265
00:13:34.720 --> 00:13:36.679
<v Speaker 1>If we were in a court of law right now,

266
00:13:37.240 --> 00:13:41.639
<v Speaker 1>Johnston would lose because Gabe Emans has proven Johnston is

267
00:13:41.679 --> 00:13:42.279
<v Speaker 1>guilty of that.

268
00:13:42.879 --> 00:13:46.200
<v Speaker 3>He's a total phony, a total lie.

269
00:13:46.919 --> 00:13:49.799
<v Speaker 1>When he says that he wants to make sure that

270
00:13:49.960 --> 00:13:54.320
<v Speaker 1>people here illegally you commit other crimes, are deported, he's

271
00:13:54.480 --> 00:13:57.159
<v Speaker 1>lying about that because if he was telling the truth.

272
00:13:58.200 --> 00:14:01.320
<v Speaker 1>Then he would lead the charge to have Denver police

273
00:14:01.399 --> 00:14:06.120
<v Speaker 1>and other officials record the immigration status of those arrested

274
00:14:06.240 --> 00:14:07.200
<v Speaker 1>for serious crimes.

275
00:14:07.240 --> 00:14:10.159
<v Speaker 3>So this was absolutely brilliant by Gabe Evans.

276
00:14:10.399 --> 00:14:13.120
<v Speaker 2>I think that the statistics that we've gone through in

277
00:14:13.200 --> 00:14:17.000
<v Speaker 2>the space of crime show why Denver is specifically cratering

278
00:14:17.080 --> 00:14:20.200
<v Speaker 2>in their public safety statistics as compared to major cities

279
00:14:20.240 --> 00:14:21.600
<v Speaker 2>around the country.

280
00:14:21.759 --> 00:14:22.360
<v Speaker 3>Actually false.

281
00:14:23.080 --> 00:14:26.240
<v Speaker 2>I can show you my statistics, and as a police officer,

282
00:14:26.720 --> 00:14:28.759
<v Speaker 2>I am here to make sure that we are uplifting

283
00:14:28.840 --> 00:14:31.000
<v Speaker 2>the voices of the victims of these crimes who are

284
00:14:31.039 --> 00:14:34.399
<v Speaker 2>being taken advantage of in communities that provide sanctuary to

285
00:14:34.879 --> 00:14:38.879
<v Speaker 2>dangerous illegal criminal gangs like Trendy Argua, which your jail

286
00:14:38.960 --> 00:14:41.759
<v Speaker 2>release just last week we talked about somebody back into

287
00:14:41.799 --> 00:14:45.000
<v Speaker 2>the community. We must take care of our victims. I've

288
00:14:45.039 --> 00:14:48.279
<v Speaker 2>brought legislation, the Uplift Act, to focus on this. We're

289
00:14:48.360 --> 00:14:50.240
<v Speaker 2>here to protect the victims and Mayor I would ask

290
00:14:50.279 --> 00:14:51.759
<v Speaker 2>you to join me on that we've already.

291
00:14:51.919 --> 00:14:55.000
<v Speaker 3>That is absolutely brilliant.

292
00:14:55.600 --> 00:14:57.399
<v Speaker 1>And you know, one of the really cool things here

293
00:14:57.720 --> 00:15:01.000
<v Speaker 1>is not only did we have a lot Republicans win

294
00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:04.879
<v Speaker 1>and most critically gave in that very close race up

295
00:15:04.919 --> 00:15:07.360
<v Speaker 1>there that was critical to control of the House. But

296
00:15:07.519 --> 00:15:12.960
<v Speaker 1>they're really talented, they're different difference makers, they're effective, effective,

297
00:15:13.639 --> 00:15:16.639
<v Speaker 1>and that's obviously great for America, but it's also great

298
00:15:16.759 --> 00:15:23.519
<v Speaker 1>for the GOP in Colorado because you're electing impressive, effective people.

299
00:15:24.080 --> 00:15:26.240
<v Speaker 1>That's going to help me get reelected. But obviously it's

300
00:15:26.279 --> 00:15:30.840
<v Speaker 1>going to help. It's going to help the Republican Party statewide.

301
00:15:31.080 --> 00:15:33.559
<v Speaker 1>How much depends on some other factors, but it is

302
00:15:33.679 --> 00:15:37.480
<v Speaker 1>a big help. So that was absolutely brilliant. And then

303
00:15:37.600 --> 00:15:41.559
<v Speaker 1>you look at the deception. There's so many layers of

304
00:15:41.679 --> 00:15:45.200
<v Speaker 1>deception from Mayor Johnston in Denver, which is really sad

305
00:15:45.279 --> 00:15:47.799
<v Speaker 1>to me because I've known him in terms of interviewing

306
00:15:47.840 --> 00:15:50.440
<v Speaker 1>him on air a lot over the years and really

307
00:15:50.720 --> 00:15:52.879
<v Speaker 1>liked him, and up to a certain point, I thought

308
00:15:52.919 --> 00:15:55.080
<v Speaker 1>he was a straight shooter who just saw the world

309
00:15:55.120 --> 00:15:58.080
<v Speaker 1>differently than me, and we had some great conversations. But

310
00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:01.200
<v Speaker 1>I think he's really changed least in his political life,

311
00:16:01.240 --> 00:16:04.080
<v Speaker 1>and he's now entered into this realm where he's willing

312
00:16:04.159 --> 00:16:06.399
<v Speaker 1>to lie all the time, say these things that are

313
00:16:06.480 --> 00:16:10.879
<v Speaker 1>absolutely false, never blink an eye. And my only thought is,

314
00:16:11.000 --> 00:16:12.679
<v Speaker 1>and I'm sure he doesn't care about this, but just

315
00:16:12.919 --> 00:16:16.080
<v Speaker 1>kind of some sadness for him, right, because no matter

316
00:16:16.120 --> 00:16:18.399
<v Speaker 1>how much power you gather anything else, that has to

317
00:16:18.480 --> 00:16:21.600
<v Speaker 1>be a very sad way to live. And you have

318
00:16:21.759 --> 00:16:25.559
<v Speaker 1>to know that eventually, eventually the anvil's going to drop,

319
00:16:25.759 --> 00:16:29.279
<v Speaker 1>because if you live a lie, eventually then anvil drops.

320
00:16:29.519 --> 00:16:32.879
<v Speaker 3>And so so a beautiful job there by Gabe.

321
00:16:33.000 --> 00:16:38.960
<v Speaker 1>Now Gabe and that questioning have referred to this terrible

322
00:16:39.000 --> 00:16:41.639
<v Speaker 1>position law enforcement. In this case, Ice was put in

323
00:16:42.240 --> 00:16:46.120
<v Speaker 1>of having to chase this TDA gang member through a

324
00:16:46.240 --> 00:16:50.000
<v Speaker 1>parking lot because Mayor Johnston in Denver, not our great

325
00:16:50.039 --> 00:16:50.720
<v Speaker 1>Denver police.

326
00:16:50.799 --> 00:16:52.480
<v Speaker 3>This is out of their hands. This is the left

327
00:16:52.519 --> 00:16:54.039
<v Speaker 3>wing politicos.

328
00:16:54.840 --> 00:16:58.399
<v Speaker 1>What would not sensibly cooperate with Ice to take a

329
00:16:58.480 --> 00:16:59.840
<v Speaker 1>TDA member off the streets.

330
00:17:00.080 --> 00:17:02.120
<v Speaker 3>I said to wait outside in the.

331
00:17:02.200 --> 00:17:06.200
<v Speaker 1>Parking lot of the facility to get this guy as

332
00:17:06.240 --> 00:17:10.359
<v Speaker 1>he came out, which obviously dramatically increases the risk to

333
00:17:10.519 --> 00:17:13.319
<v Speaker 1>law enforcement. But it's just another just another way we

334
00:17:13.440 --> 00:17:17.519
<v Speaker 1>can see that that clearly these lefties do not care

335
00:17:17.720 --> 00:17:19.920
<v Speaker 1>about the great men and women in blue. And I

336
00:17:20.000 --> 00:17:22.359
<v Speaker 1>know that's not breaking news, but it's worth remembering on

337
00:17:22.440 --> 00:17:26.039
<v Speaker 1>a regular basis because one of these days the g

338
00:17:26.200 --> 00:17:28.319
<v Speaker 1>and it might be in this cycle the GOP is

339
00:17:28.440 --> 00:17:31.519
<v Speaker 1>going to have a shot at winning statewide a big race.

340
00:17:31.640 --> 00:17:33.920
<v Speaker 1>Once it does, I think then the dam is going

341
00:17:33.960 --> 00:17:37.759
<v Speaker 1>to break. And so reminding people of just the reality

342
00:17:37.839 --> 00:17:39.640
<v Speaker 1>of these people on the left, I think is an

343
00:17:39.680 --> 00:17:43.720
<v Speaker 1>important thing to do. Three or three someone three, eight, two, five,

344
00:17:43.920 --> 00:17:47.319
<v Speaker 1>five the number text d an five, seven, seventh through nine.

345
00:17:47.359 --> 00:17:49.440
<v Speaker 3>When we come back, I want to talk.

346
00:17:49.359 --> 00:17:51.720
<v Speaker 1>About some things that excite me, hopefully we'll excite you,

347
00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:57.400
<v Speaker 1>but some very real, practical paths to victory here. I'm

348
00:17:57.440 --> 00:17:59.559
<v Speaker 1>not saying it's easy. I'm not saying it's slammed dunk.

349
00:17:59.559 --> 00:18:01.519
<v Speaker 1>It wouldn't be any fun if it was easy and

350
00:18:01.599 --> 00:18:05.400
<v Speaker 1>slam dunk. But you know, the American Revolutionary War wasn't

351
00:18:05.440 --> 00:18:08.359
<v Speaker 1>exactly easy. Wasn't slam dunk. What were the Vegas odds

352
00:18:08.400 --> 00:18:08.759
<v Speaker 1>on that one?

353
00:18:08.799 --> 00:18:09.279
<v Speaker 3>Do you remember?

354
00:18:09.400 --> 00:18:09.519
<v Speaker 2>Right?

355
00:18:10.799 --> 00:18:13.680
<v Speaker 4>You can call it pretty poor? Washington sprung a big upset.

356
00:18:13.960 --> 00:18:16.599
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, yeah, I'm trying to remember where Vegas had that.

357
00:18:16.680 --> 00:18:18.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, Vegas wasn't there yet. But if they were there,

358
00:18:19.799 --> 00:18:25.079
<v Speaker 1>they would have had the Patriots at what maybe ten

359
00:18:25.160 --> 00:18:27.960
<v Speaker 1>to one against one hundred to one against. But there

360
00:18:28.039 --> 00:18:31.960
<v Speaker 1>is a path. It's real it's concrete, it's creative, and

361
00:18:32.119 --> 00:18:33.519
<v Speaker 1>when we come back, want to run if five, I

362
00:18:33.599 --> 00:18:34.319
<v Speaker 1>see what you'd think.

363
00:18:35.000 --> 00:18:36.279
<v Speaker 3>You're on the Dankapla show.

364
00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:48.119
<v Speaker 4>You're listening to the dan Kaplis Show podcast.

365
00:18:49.960 --> 00:18:52.640
<v Speaker 10>And as they have decided to go after immigrants and

366
00:18:52.720 --> 00:18:55.319
<v Speaker 10>these and things like that, and they said, oh, they've

367
00:18:55.359 --> 00:18:56.720
<v Speaker 10>taken your black jobs.

368
00:18:57.279 --> 00:18:58.839
<v Speaker 3>They'd taken you black jobs.

369
00:19:00.079 --> 00:19:03.039
<v Speaker 10>Not really, they are obviously jobs that they want us

370
00:19:03.079 --> 00:19:05.599
<v Speaker 10>to go back to, such as work in the fields.

371
00:19:05.680 --> 00:19:08.759
<v Speaker 10>All right, those immigrants that come into our country, they

372
00:19:08.799 --> 00:19:11.240
<v Speaker 10>work the fields, something that we ain't done in a

373
00:19:11.359 --> 00:19:14.920
<v Speaker 10>long time. And clearly he is trying to make us

374
00:19:15.000 --> 00:19:16.240
<v Speaker 10>go back to the fields.

375
00:19:17.359 --> 00:19:20.319
<v Speaker 1>I love it when Democrats talk like that, right, I mean,

376
00:19:20.400 --> 00:19:23.279
<v Speaker 1>it just keeps getting better because we got to understand something.

377
00:19:23.680 --> 00:19:27.400
<v Speaker 3>This is gravity. There is only so much. It's a lot, and.

378
00:19:27.440 --> 00:19:28.960
<v Speaker 1>It's a lot more than we've done, but there's only

379
00:19:29.079 --> 00:19:33.720
<v Speaker 1>so much we can do as conservatives to convert people

380
00:19:33.880 --> 00:19:37.279
<v Speaker 1>to our costs. And the reason for that is because

381
00:19:37.279 --> 00:19:38.960
<v Speaker 1>in it I was a Democrat for years, so I

382
00:19:39.039 --> 00:19:41.720
<v Speaker 1>know of what I speak. The reason for that is

383
00:19:42.079 --> 00:19:49.319
<v Speaker 1>there is such a deep, thick layer of just anti

384
00:19:49.559 --> 00:19:53.640
<v Speaker 1>Republican stereotype out there that no matter how much we

385
00:19:53.799 --> 00:19:57.319
<v Speaker 1>do for some humans, we will never be able to

386
00:19:58.200 --> 00:20:01.920
<v Speaker 1>cut all the way through that wall. The Democrats are

387
00:20:02.000 --> 00:20:03.720
<v Speaker 1>going to have to do it for us. Now, there's

388
00:20:03.720 --> 00:20:05.519
<v Speaker 1>a lot we can do to persuade a lot of

389
00:20:05.599 --> 00:20:07.759
<v Speaker 1>people that, don't get me wrong, But there's.

390
00:20:07.599 --> 00:20:10.599
<v Speaker 3>A certain group and it's not a small one where only.

391
00:20:10.480 --> 00:20:13.400
<v Speaker 1>The Democrats can cut through that wall for us, and

392
00:20:13.759 --> 00:20:16.599
<v Speaker 1>so many of them are doing that for us. And

393
00:20:16.759 --> 00:20:18.680
<v Speaker 1>so now part of it is you just have to

394
00:20:18.759 --> 00:20:21.119
<v Speaker 1>sit back and enjoy this moment where Trump has broken

395
00:20:21.200 --> 00:20:26.079
<v Speaker 1>their brains, They've been exposed, and now they're just floundering

396
00:20:26.200 --> 00:20:29.240
<v Speaker 1>and doing crazy stuff like that because right Ryan, you've

397
00:20:29.279 --> 00:20:31.400
<v Speaker 1>got the big money on the left, You've got their

398
00:20:31.440 --> 00:20:35.519
<v Speaker 1>hardcore lefty constituents saying do something. You got to do something,

399
00:20:35.960 --> 00:20:40.240
<v Speaker 1>do something. So they're throwing a lot of dumb punches

400
00:20:40.880 --> 00:20:41.960
<v Speaker 1>instead of smart punches.

401
00:20:42.039 --> 00:20:43.640
<v Speaker 7>Well, that would qualify what you just heard as a

402
00:20:43.680 --> 00:20:45.400
<v Speaker 7>dumb punch, because I want to ask the fundamental question

403
00:20:45.480 --> 00:20:48.960
<v Speaker 7>of you, Dan, why is it okay for illegals to

404
00:20:49.079 --> 00:20:51.880
<v Speaker 7>come into this country and work in the fields. But

405
00:20:52.039 --> 00:20:55.640
<v Speaker 7>that's beneath African Americans to work in the fields. But

406
00:20:55.680 --> 00:20:59.480
<v Speaker 7>it's okay for illegals to be here work in the fields,

407
00:20:59.559 --> 00:21:03.240
<v Speaker 7>do it for subpar wages, undercut the wages of legal Americans.

408
00:21:03.839 --> 00:21:05.960
<v Speaker 1>Well, right, great point because listen, we all know what's

409
00:21:06.000 --> 00:21:08.720
<v Speaker 1>going on, right, And it leads to another critical point

410
00:21:08.720 --> 00:21:12.160
<v Speaker 1>about Mike Johnston. And what's going on is the Democrats

411
00:21:12.279 --> 00:21:17.000
<v Speaker 1>don't give a darn about these folks south of the border.

412
00:21:17.440 --> 00:21:20.240
<v Speaker 1>They see them as political pawns, and the Democrats don't

413
00:21:20.279 --> 00:21:24.920
<v Speaker 1>think twice about luring them to make the long trip

414
00:21:25.039 --> 00:21:26.559
<v Speaker 1>up where they know a lot of women and girls

415
00:21:26.599 --> 00:21:29.319
<v Speaker 1>will be raped, they know that a lot of people

416
00:21:29.319 --> 00:21:32.440
<v Speaker 1>will be murdered, and the Democrats don't care at all

417
00:21:32.640 --> 00:21:34.400
<v Speaker 1>about the humanity of those people.

418
00:21:34.920 --> 00:21:38.880
<v Speaker 3>They view them as political pawns, as future votes. So

419
00:21:39.039 --> 00:21:40.680
<v Speaker 3>they just use this magnet to.

420
00:21:40.759 --> 00:21:44.160
<v Speaker 1>Suck everybody up through the border, knowing before Trump got

421
00:21:44.200 --> 00:21:47.720
<v Speaker 1>elected there's going to be a huge number of folks

422
00:21:47.759 --> 00:21:51.400
<v Speaker 1>who are coming in unvetted with serious criminal histories, in

423
00:21:51.480 --> 00:21:53.799
<v Speaker 1>addition to a very large number of people who are

424
00:21:53.839 --> 00:22:00.319
<v Speaker 1>otherwise good people. But the Democrats just don't care about

425
00:22:00.319 --> 00:22:03.440
<v Speaker 1>the humanity of the people they're attracting up through the border.

426
00:22:04.000 --> 00:22:07.400
<v Speaker 1>And this brings us back to Mike Johnston. The mayor

427
00:22:07.440 --> 00:22:11.240
<v Speaker 1>of Denver, who I believe just so phony when it

428
00:22:11.359 --> 00:22:15.359
<v Speaker 1>comes to this pretend concern for people coming here illegally,

429
00:22:15.839 --> 00:22:19.200
<v Speaker 1>because if he really cared about the humanity of those folks,

430
00:22:19.799 --> 00:22:23.079
<v Speaker 1>he would be with Lauren Bobert and Ryan Shuling and

431
00:22:23.279 --> 00:22:27.559
<v Speaker 1>you and me and everybody in leading the charge to

432
00:22:27.680 --> 00:22:30.160
<v Speaker 1>make sure that people here illegally who are committing other

433
00:22:30.359 --> 00:22:34.839
<v Speaker 1>crimes are busted, they're jailed, they're turned over to ICE.

434
00:22:34.880 --> 00:22:38.759
<v Speaker 3>He'd be leading the charge. Here's why, because a.

435
00:22:38.839 --> 00:22:42.519
<v Speaker 1>Lot of the victims of people here illegally you are

436
00:22:42.559 --> 00:22:45.640
<v Speaker 1>committing other crimes, are people here illegally.

437
00:22:46.440 --> 00:22:48.240
<v Speaker 3>So if Mike Johnston really gave a.

438
00:22:48.400 --> 00:22:53.440
<v Speaker 1>Darn about the people here illegally who are not committing crimes,

439
00:22:54.640 --> 00:22:57.640
<v Speaker 1>he would be working with us to hammer those who are.

440
00:22:58.480 --> 00:22:59.960
<v Speaker 4>But not for them and the laft.

441
00:23:00.519 --> 00:23:03.960
<v Speaker 1>All they see these people as is numbers, as future votes.

442
00:23:04.119 --> 00:23:06.240
<v Speaker 4>And you don't need any more proof than that.

443
00:23:06.359 --> 00:23:09.000
<v Speaker 1>Bill Hick and Luper and Vented are pushing right that

444
00:23:09.440 --> 00:23:12.720
<v Speaker 1>says ICE can't detain any buddy here illegally at a

445
00:23:12.799 --> 00:23:13.480
<v Speaker 1>polling place.

446
00:23:14.039 --> 00:23:16.880
<v Speaker 4>And it's further down the road of the ugliness. That

447
00:23:17.039 --> 00:23:18.440
<v Speaker 4>is an ugly remark you just.

448
00:23:18.480 --> 00:23:21.720
<v Speaker 7>Heard from Representative Jasmine Crockett Dan because it says the

449
00:23:21.799 --> 00:23:24.200
<v Speaker 7>quiet part out loud. They want to create a permanent

450
00:23:24.400 --> 00:23:28.079
<v Speaker 7>underclass dependent on the government, scared out of their minds,

451
00:23:28.480 --> 00:23:32.880
<v Speaker 7>working for cut rate wages, which undermines the very union

452
00:23:32.960 --> 00:23:36.119
<v Speaker 7>workers and organized labor that the Left pretends to endorse.

453
00:23:36.680 --> 00:23:37.400
<v Speaker 4>And they're doing it.

454
00:23:37.519 --> 00:23:39.599
<v Speaker 7>Again in a way that does not respect the dignity,

455
00:23:39.640 --> 00:23:42.480
<v Speaker 7>the humanity of those coming across our border illegally.

456
00:23:42.759 --> 00:23:44.880
<v Speaker 4>They just view them, like you said, as a number.

457
00:23:45.079 --> 00:23:49.599
<v Speaker 1>Well, whatever Democrat understands, including Representative Crocket, is that the

458
00:23:49.799 --> 00:23:54.119
<v Speaker 1>very existence and survival of the Left is dependent upon

459
00:23:54.799 --> 00:23:59.759
<v Speaker 1>keeping Black Americans down economically, and keeping Brown Americans down

460
00:24:00.000 --> 00:24:04.559
<v Speaker 1>economically because they know, and keeping some other Americans down economically,

461
00:24:04.599 --> 00:24:08.240
<v Speaker 1>because the left knows that as soon as people start

462
00:24:08.359 --> 00:24:10.839
<v Speaker 1>making and I think the current number is probably close

463
00:24:10.880 --> 00:24:13.319
<v Speaker 1>to seventy thousand, seventy thousand or more, a majority are

464
00:24:13.359 --> 00:24:16.680
<v Speaker 1>going to vote Republican. So they're very survival. Tink about

465
00:24:16.720 --> 00:24:22.519
<v Speaker 1>how pervers this is depends upon keeping all these people down. Yeah,

466
00:24:22.960 --> 00:24:26.079
<v Speaker 1>and that's again why you should be so optimistic that

467
00:24:26.200 --> 00:24:26.880
<v Speaker 1>this trend.

468
00:24:26.680 --> 00:24:27.720
<v Speaker 3>Line is going to continue.

469
00:24:28.119 --> 00:24:30.279
<v Speaker 1>You know, a few bumps down there, but this trend

470
00:24:30.319 --> 00:24:33.279
<v Speaker 1>line is going to continue, and the Democrats are going

471
00:24:33.359 --> 00:24:38.759
<v Speaker 1>to continue to get shrunken and marginalized and Conservatism growing

472
00:24:39.319 --> 00:24:41.839
<v Speaker 1>because the big tipping point, and you can see they're

473
00:24:41.880 --> 00:24:43.680
<v Speaker 1>scared to death of it now. Right on the left,

474
00:24:43.759 --> 00:24:46.880
<v Speaker 1>the big tipping point is going to be with people

475
00:24:46.960 --> 00:24:51.039
<v Speaker 1>of color, when more and more folks just understand what

476
00:24:51.400 --> 00:24:53.240
<v Speaker 1>the left is really doing to them.

477
00:24:53.559 --> 00:24:56.000
<v Speaker 3>And the combination, Ryan, I think this is so critical.

478
00:24:56.559 --> 00:24:59.240
<v Speaker 1>It's a combination not only of that, but but also

479
00:24:59.519 --> 00:25:04.160
<v Speaker 1>of the GOP being more appealing. And let me throw

480
00:25:04.200 --> 00:25:08.240
<v Speaker 1>this out there for folks to shoot at. I don't

481
00:25:08.319 --> 00:25:11.559
<v Speaker 1>think the GOP in my entire lifetime.

482
00:25:11.240 --> 00:25:17.359
<v Speaker 3>Has ever been a fraction a fraction as strong as

483
00:25:17.400 --> 00:25:18.000
<v Speaker 3>it is right now.

484
00:25:18.160 --> 00:25:24.559
<v Speaker 1>I think there is ten times more really appealing elite

485
00:25:25.160 --> 00:25:28.319
<v Speaker 1>talent in the GOP than we have ever seen in

486
00:25:28.400 --> 00:25:31.039
<v Speaker 1>my lifetime before. And I think Trump deserves an awful

487
00:25:31.079 --> 00:25:33.839
<v Speaker 1>lot of that credit. But when have we ever seen this? Right?

488
00:25:33.920 --> 00:25:36.160
<v Speaker 1>And we get a little tunnel vision and we get

489
00:25:36.279 --> 00:25:39.559
<v Speaker 1>zoomed in on the bench, the presidential bench, right, and

490
00:25:39.960 --> 00:25:42.799
<v Speaker 1>that's the biggest bench we've ever seen in our lifetimes.

491
00:25:43.240 --> 00:25:45.720
<v Speaker 1>And when we talk about diversity, I'm not talking about

492
00:25:45.839 --> 00:25:50.440
<v Speaker 1>race or gender. I'm just talking different types of talent diversity. Now,

493
00:25:50.519 --> 00:25:52.759
<v Speaker 1>you happen to have a lot of race and gender

494
00:25:52.880 --> 00:25:56.000
<v Speaker 1>diversity in there. But think about how deep that presidential

495
00:25:56.160 --> 00:25:59.720
<v Speaker 1>bench is heading into twenty eight, which really begins in

496
00:25:59.759 --> 00:26:03.079
<v Speaker 1>twenty But then you go beyond that and you start

497
00:26:03.119 --> 00:26:05.400
<v Speaker 1>to drill down. I mean, just look at the congressional

498
00:26:05.480 --> 00:26:08.240
<v Speaker 1>delegation right look at Colorado. Right now, look at the

499
00:26:08.359 --> 00:26:12.599
<v Speaker 1>talent in that congressional delegation in Coloradoh yeah, And so

500
00:26:13.640 --> 00:26:17.359
<v Speaker 1>you see the GOP just presenting such a more appealing

501
00:26:17.440 --> 00:26:22.720
<v Speaker 1>alternative to so many folks who traditionally vote Democrat, including

502
00:26:22.720 --> 00:26:23.799
<v Speaker 1>a lot of folks of color.

503
00:26:24.079 --> 00:26:27.440
<v Speaker 3>It's combined with the Democrats just kind of imploding and screwing.

504
00:26:27.079 --> 00:26:29.599
<v Speaker 7>People at color I mean, they are their own worst enemies,

505
00:26:29.680 --> 00:26:31.799
<v Speaker 7>and Jazz and Crockett just proved that once again. But

506
00:26:32.079 --> 00:26:34.079
<v Speaker 7>it's a miracle, nothing short of it, Dan, that we

507
00:26:34.160 --> 00:26:37.720
<v Speaker 7>have a four and four House delegation from Colorado in

508
00:26:37.839 --> 00:26:41.279
<v Speaker 7>the Congress with Gabe Evans and Jeff Hurd and Jeff

509
00:26:41.319 --> 00:26:44.440
<v Speaker 7>Crank and Lauren Bobert. And further to your point, even

510
00:26:44.480 --> 00:26:47.000
<v Speaker 7>back in the eighties, the Helsionic days, for most of

511
00:26:47.119 --> 00:26:49.680
<v Speaker 7>us that started following politics as gen xers in the

512
00:26:49.759 --> 00:26:50.440
<v Speaker 7>Reagan years.

513
00:26:50.759 --> 00:26:52.880
<v Speaker 4>He never had unified government.

514
00:26:53.039 --> 00:26:56.359
<v Speaker 7>He never had a Republican Congress, of the Republican House

515
00:26:56.599 --> 00:26:58.319
<v Speaker 7>and a Republican Senate. He had to kind of make

516
00:26:58.440 --> 00:27:01.559
<v Speaker 7>deals with Tip O'Neil and Democrat controlled House. The fact

517
00:27:01.559 --> 00:27:05.079
<v Speaker 7>that the Republicans currently hold all three of those, the House,

518
00:27:05.119 --> 00:27:08.359
<v Speaker 7>the Senate, the Presidency, and continuing down this road, That's

519
00:27:08.400 --> 00:27:10.279
<v Speaker 7>why I hope so much, Dan, that over these next

520
00:27:10.400 --> 00:27:13.400
<v Speaker 7>two years that Trump can have just a wave of

521
00:27:13.519 --> 00:27:17.759
<v Speaker 7>successes that will bolster his argument of holding on to

522
00:27:18.200 --> 00:27:20.000
<v Speaker 7>power in the United States government.

523
00:27:20.359 --> 00:27:23.839
<v Speaker 1>And nothing's guarantee guarantee, but I think that's almost guaranteed

524
00:27:23.880 --> 00:27:27.000
<v Speaker 1>at this point, right. I mean, everybody's nervous about the

525
00:27:27.200 --> 00:27:29.039
<v Speaker 1>terrorists and the market and the this and the that.

526
00:27:29.200 --> 00:27:32.160
<v Speaker 1>That there is every reason to trust Trump on this

527
00:27:32.839 --> 00:27:35.640
<v Speaker 1>right based on the first term, and I think he

528
00:27:35.799 --> 00:27:39.079
<v Speaker 1>has thought much more deeply about this than most people.

529
00:27:39.200 --> 00:27:43.680
<v Speaker 1>But he's willing to do more, to do more dramatically,

530
00:27:43.799 --> 00:27:46.680
<v Speaker 1>to do more boldly. That presents the chance for some

531
00:27:46.880 --> 00:27:49.640
<v Speaker 1>truly transformational change, and we saw enough of that in

532
00:27:49.680 --> 00:27:52.680
<v Speaker 1>the first term. I'm talking about economically now that I'm

533
00:27:52.759 --> 00:27:55.759
<v Speaker 1>very optimistic. We'll see it again in this second term,

534
00:27:55.839 --> 00:27:58.400
<v Speaker 1>so so many reasons to be optimistic. We're just enjoying

535
00:27:58.960 --> 00:28:02.400
<v Speaker 1>all of this today A d An five seven seventeen nine.

536
00:28:02.480 --> 00:28:05.599
<v Speaker 1>When we come back, all right, Michael Bennett, all signs

537
00:28:05.640 --> 00:28:08.079
<v Speaker 1>are that he's going to enter the governor's race in Colorado.

538
00:28:08.519 --> 00:28:10.000
<v Speaker 3>How do you think that's going to go?

539
00:28:10.400 --> 00:28:11.079
<v Speaker 4>You're on the Dan.

540
00:28:11.039 --> 00:28:15.079
<v Speaker 3>Capla Show, No impact traffic.

541
00:28:21.279 --> 00:28:23.680
<v Speaker 4>And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.

542
00:28:25.599 --> 00:28:29.279
<v Speaker 11>Media and our friends in the Democrat Party kept saying

543
00:28:29.359 --> 00:28:33.440
<v Speaker 11>we needed new legislation, we must have legislation to secure

544
00:28:33.480 --> 00:28:36.279
<v Speaker 11>the border. But it turned out that all we really

545
00:28:36.400 --> 00:28:38.720
<v Speaker 11>needed was a new president.

546
00:28:41.759 --> 00:28:42.599
<v Speaker 3>One of the great.

547
00:28:42.480 --> 00:28:44.039
<v Speaker 4>Lines of the right because it's.

548
00:28:45.880 --> 00:28:48.960
<v Speaker 1>It's so obviously true, and it's so important, and it

549
00:28:49.319 --> 00:28:53.640
<v Speaker 1>just exposes the Democrats as the liars they are, and

550
00:28:54.400 --> 00:28:57.680
<v Speaker 1>which ties into and Ryan. I don't know if anybody

551
00:28:57.720 --> 00:29:00.359
<v Speaker 1>has any interest in this whatsoever, which is really intriguing

552
00:29:00.400 --> 00:29:03.039
<v Speaker 1>to me, because every time we try to talk about

553
00:29:03.200 --> 00:29:08.079
<v Speaker 1>the Colorado governor's race that's on right now, nobody's interested.

554
00:29:09.079 --> 00:29:12.400
<v Speaker 1>Nobody's interested, and it wasn't that way in the past.

555
00:29:12.519 --> 00:29:15.400
<v Speaker 1>So I wonder what that is. Maybe people will want

556
00:29:15.440 --> 00:29:19.359
<v Speaker 1>to talk about why nobody's interested, But truly nobody's interested.

557
00:29:20.680 --> 00:29:24.160
<v Speaker 1>Bennett now making all this noise, looks like he's going

558
00:29:24.240 --> 00:29:24.559
<v Speaker 1>to get in.

559
00:29:24.799 --> 00:29:27.519
<v Speaker 3>I'd love to get somebody's take on this.

560
00:29:27.759 --> 00:29:30.440
<v Speaker 1>And why do you think at this point there appears

561
00:29:30.519 --> 00:29:33.279
<v Speaker 1>to be so little interest in the governor's race?

562
00:29:33.400 --> 00:29:36.400
<v Speaker 3>Is it too far away? Do people just think, hey,

563
00:29:36.480 --> 00:29:38.240
<v Speaker 3>some Democrats going to win? So why bother?

564
00:29:38.680 --> 00:29:40.799
<v Speaker 7>What do you think it is well for our audience?

565
00:29:41.119 --> 00:29:44.119
<v Speaker 7>For me, we don't have a Republican nominee, do we

566
00:29:44.440 --> 00:29:46.440
<v Speaker 7>or a candidate that's declared a Republican.

567
00:29:46.519 --> 00:29:49.799
<v Speaker 3>I thought I thought Scott Bottoms had declared you're correct.

568
00:29:49.880 --> 00:29:52.240
<v Speaker 4>Okay, Scott Bob, that is one you are correct, sir,

569
00:29:52.359 --> 00:29:52.519
<v Speaker 4>I know.

570
00:29:52.839 --> 00:29:55.039
<v Speaker 7>But on the left even I mean Phil none the wiser,

571
00:29:55.119 --> 00:29:58.039
<v Speaker 7>I trademarked the name that was mine and no, it's

572
00:29:58.079 --> 00:29:59.319
<v Speaker 7>Michael Bennett's totally mine.

573
00:29:59.480 --> 00:30:02.519
<v Speaker 3>One D called that since he went to pre K.

574
00:30:05.039 --> 00:30:07.680
<v Speaker 4>So, Michael Bennett. You think Jenna Griswold will run?

575
00:30:07.839 --> 00:30:08.000
<v Speaker 2>Right?

576
00:30:08.240 --> 00:30:11.160
<v Speaker 4>Has she declared? Has she gotten out in public?

577
00:30:11.839 --> 00:30:12.400
<v Speaker 3>But she's in?

578
00:30:13.079 --> 00:30:13.279
<v Speaker 1>Why?

579
00:30:13.559 --> 00:30:15.680
<v Speaker 4>I mean, there's just no way she could. Anybody that

580
00:30:15.720 --> 00:30:16.160
<v Speaker 4>would give a.

581
00:30:16.160 --> 00:30:19.200
<v Speaker 1>Doptions, there's no way she can win family if you've

582
00:30:19.200 --> 00:30:22.880
<v Speaker 1>ever heard of identity politics. I mean, that's what the

583
00:30:22.920 --> 00:30:25.480
<v Speaker 1>Democrats are all about. They're the opposite of doctor King.

584
00:30:25.559 --> 00:30:28.240
<v Speaker 1>It's not about merit, it's about identity politics.

585
00:30:28.640 --> 00:30:30.240
<v Speaker 4>She is so unqualified.

586
00:30:30.400 --> 00:30:32.400
<v Speaker 1>But if you're the Democratic Party, look at it, right,

587
00:30:32.440 --> 00:30:36.359
<v Speaker 1>because right now they're they're flailing because they're getting exposed, right,

588
00:30:37.079 --> 00:30:39.839
<v Speaker 1>and so they're so high and mighty DEI all that,

589
00:30:40.039 --> 00:30:42.680
<v Speaker 1>and almost all the top jobs are boring old white guys.

590
00:30:43.799 --> 00:30:47.640
<v Speaker 1>So you know you isn't a boring ol whica. You

591
00:30:47.720 --> 00:30:49.680
<v Speaker 1>and I both agree, right, if he runs, it's his

592
00:30:50.599 --> 00:30:53.079
<v Speaker 1>I think he's the most formidable candidate. Yeah, so I

593
00:30:53.160 --> 00:30:54.480
<v Speaker 1>don't think. But what a great question.

594
00:30:54.559 --> 00:30:55.000
<v Speaker 4>You see.

595
00:30:55.519 --> 00:30:58.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't think Bennett makes this noise about getting in

596
00:30:59.039 --> 00:31:02.839
<v Speaker 1>unless he thinks Goose is not, or maybe it's designed

597
00:31:03.000 --> 00:31:06.240
<v Speaker 1>to just force no Goose's hand box him out, or

598
00:31:06.319 --> 00:31:08.519
<v Speaker 1>to force his hand, because I think everybody acknowledges if

599
00:31:08.599 --> 00:31:10.480
<v Speaker 1>Joan no Goose gets in on the dem side, hes

600
00:31:11.359 --> 00:31:12.799
<v Speaker 1>he's almost certain to be the nominee.

601
00:31:13.000 --> 00:31:13.079
<v Speaker 2>Right.

602
00:31:13.160 --> 00:31:14.640
<v Speaker 4>What about the criss cross effect here?

603
00:31:14.680 --> 00:31:17.119
<v Speaker 7>Though maybe they are in cahoots Bennett and a Goose

604
00:31:17.160 --> 00:31:18.279
<v Speaker 7>meaning Bennett runs for governor.

605
00:31:18.279 --> 00:31:20.720
<v Speaker 4>And oh, by the way, Joan A. Goose slides into

606
00:31:20.759 --> 00:31:21.720
<v Speaker 4>that Senate seat.

607
00:31:22.720 --> 00:31:24.519
<v Speaker 3>It challenges Hick and Looper in a primary.

608
00:31:24.880 --> 00:31:26.799
<v Speaker 4>No, Bennett's seat, Bennet woul happen?

609
00:31:26.839 --> 00:31:29.400
<v Speaker 1>Well, right, Panda, the seat, wouldn't he No, right, Well,

610
00:31:29.440 --> 00:31:32.279
<v Speaker 1>that's a great question, but he wouldn't have to Oh yeah,

611
00:31:33.119 --> 00:31:33.960
<v Speaker 1>nothing there now?

612
00:31:34.680 --> 00:31:35.440
<v Speaker 3>Why them?

613
00:31:35.519 --> 00:31:35.680
<v Speaker 4>Yeah?

614
00:31:35.839 --> 00:31:36.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah?

615
00:31:36.079 --> 00:31:36.640
<v Speaker 3>Why should he?

616
00:31:37.039 --> 00:31:38.960
<v Speaker 1>But I mean it's a good question as to whether

617
00:31:39.039 --> 00:31:41.480
<v Speaker 1>he would or not. Right, But you could see where

618
00:31:41.519 --> 00:31:45.279
<v Speaker 1>the play there might be because if my mask's right,

619
00:31:45.400 --> 00:31:48.400
<v Speaker 1>Bennett's up in twenty eight, right, So we're talking about

620
00:31:48.400 --> 00:31:51.279
<v Speaker 1>the twenty six governor's race. So Bennett stays in the

621
00:31:51.359 --> 00:31:54.799
<v Speaker 1>Senate through the campaign, and then if he wins, hicken

622
00:31:54.839 --> 00:31:58.599
<v Speaker 1>Looper appoints himself to that Senate seat and serves out

623
00:31:58.640 --> 00:32:01.720
<v Speaker 1>the last two years, appoint pol Us appoints did I say,

624
00:32:01.799 --> 00:32:05.359
<v Speaker 1>Hick and they're all the same. Yeah, and they're starting

625
00:32:05.400 --> 00:32:08.480
<v Speaker 1>to look the same too. But but and I'm referring

626
00:32:08.519 --> 00:32:11.319
<v Speaker 1>to Polus and Hick and lu print Bennett. So then yeah,

627
00:32:11.640 --> 00:32:14.759
<v Speaker 1>so if my masks right, if Bennett holds onto the

628
00:32:14.799 --> 00:32:16.759
<v Speaker 1>Senate seat while he runs for governor, he might not,

629
00:32:16.839 --> 00:32:20.680
<v Speaker 1>but if he does, then Bennett wins, Polus appoints himself

630
00:32:21.319 --> 00:32:23.720
<v Speaker 1>to Bennett's the last two years of Bennett's Senate seat,

631
00:32:24.480 --> 00:32:26.319
<v Speaker 1>and then runs for it. Wow.

632
00:32:26.799 --> 00:32:32.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, right, I mean anyway that it's very clear we're

633
00:32:32.680 --> 00:32:34.359
<v Speaker 3>the only two people who care at all about that.

634
00:32:34.799 --> 00:32:37.960
<v Speaker 1>I'm at least somewhat, but nobody has any interest in

635
00:32:38.039 --> 00:32:38.839
<v Speaker 1>the governor's race.

636
00:32:39.880 --> 00:32:42.480
<v Speaker 4>You decline something, Yeah, oh, thank you very much.

637
00:32:44.319 --> 00:32:47.039
<v Speaker 1>Let's see, it's interesting we're starting to get some texts

638
00:32:47.079 --> 00:32:51.160
<v Speaker 1>that are anti Justice Barrett, right, because I know, we

639
00:32:51.319 --> 00:32:56.480
<v Speaker 1>just had this very surprising Scotus decision where Justice Barrett

640
00:32:56.640 --> 00:33:00.640
<v Speaker 1>went against most of the other Conservatives and said that

641
00:33:00.880 --> 00:33:04.359
<v Speaker 1>a federal court judge, trial court level.

642
00:33:04.279 --> 00:33:06.799
<v Speaker 3>Judge, and you know that's a very very big deal

643
00:33:07.160 --> 00:33:07.640
<v Speaker 3>in any.

644
00:33:07.559 --> 00:33:13.680
<v Speaker 1>System, including the federal system, upheld that judge in forcing

645
00:33:13.799 --> 00:33:18.279
<v Speaker 1>Trump to issue two billion dollars in foreign aid payments.

646
00:33:19.119 --> 00:33:21.160
<v Speaker 3>That was a very surprising ruling.

647
00:33:21.480 --> 00:33:24.279
<v Speaker 1>And so I know that any MacArthur who just knows

648
00:33:24.319 --> 00:33:27.240
<v Speaker 1>the Supreme Court inside and out thought for sure it

649
00:33:27.400 --> 00:33:31.119
<v Speaker 1>was going the other way. Obviously, Justice Alito was apoplectic

650
00:33:31.640 --> 00:33:35.440
<v Speaker 1>over it in his dissent, and so we're starting to

651
00:33:35.480 --> 00:33:37.599
<v Speaker 1>get a bunch of those texts. Now, what I would

652
00:33:37.599 --> 00:33:43.240
<v Speaker 1>suggest is, don't give up. Don't give up confidence in

653
00:33:43.480 --> 00:33:47.519
<v Speaker 1>Justice Barrett, hoping Justice Barrett, I think it's one of

654
00:33:47.839 --> 00:33:51.640
<v Speaker 1>the very best appointments ever. And what I read into

655
00:33:51.720 --> 00:33:54.759
<v Speaker 1>I think we know now Ryan, right, why on Tuesday

656
00:33:54.839 --> 00:33:57.839
<v Speaker 1>night at the President's addressed to Congress there were only

657
00:33:57.960 --> 00:34:02.759
<v Speaker 1>four sitting Supreme Court Justice members there, right, Because I

658
00:34:02.839 --> 00:34:05.400
<v Speaker 1>think you had others who knew this opinion was coming

659
00:34:05.480 --> 00:34:07.200
<v Speaker 1>down the next day and they were angry about it,

660
00:34:07.240 --> 00:34:11.960
<v Speaker 1>and they weren't going to sit there at the President's address,

661
00:34:12.079 --> 00:34:13.519
<v Speaker 1>and it appear to be phonies.

662
00:34:13.760 --> 00:34:15.480
<v Speaker 3>I think they were upset about that decision.

663
00:34:15.559 --> 00:34:17.599
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, trying to remember Barrett was there, Kagan was there,

664
00:34:17.760 --> 00:34:20.960
<v Speaker 7>Chief was there, The retired Justice Anthony Kennedy was there.

665
00:34:21.280 --> 00:34:23.719
<v Speaker 4>It was interesting, right, and the Chief John Robins was there.

666
00:34:23.760 --> 00:34:24.159
<v Speaker 2>That was that it.

667
00:34:24.440 --> 00:34:26.519
<v Speaker 3>But I was wondering that night, why are there only four?

668
00:34:26.800 --> 00:34:29.800
<v Speaker 1>And then the next morning it became clear because this

669
00:34:30.000 --> 00:34:33.840
<v Speaker 1>very surprising ruling against Trump was coming down, and I

670
00:34:34.000 --> 00:34:36.480
<v Speaker 1>think I think Justice Gorsich was not there the.

671
00:34:36.480 --> 00:34:37.320
<v Speaker 3>Other night, et cetera.

672
00:34:37.679 --> 00:34:39.800
<v Speaker 4>Kavanaugh was there here, right, right, I think you had

673
00:34:39.840 --> 00:34:42.800
<v Speaker 4>some justices who just, you know, does it surprise you?

674
00:34:43.599 --> 00:34:46.719
<v Speaker 7>And it does me that Amy Cony Barrett is becoming

675
00:34:46.800 --> 00:34:49.519
<v Speaker 7>more of a problem than we even thought Brett Kavanaugh.

676
00:34:49.239 --> 00:34:49.679
<v Speaker 3>Was going to be.

677
00:34:50.440 --> 00:34:54.320
<v Speaker 1>Well, Listen, I don't want to say problem right because

678
00:34:54.800 --> 00:34:59.199
<v Speaker 1>I get it. All I'm saying is I admire her

679
00:34:59.480 --> 00:35:01.920
<v Speaker 1>in some many different ways. I think she's a brilliant

680
00:35:02.000 --> 00:35:06.559
<v Speaker 1>legal mind. I think she's a very courageous originalist jurist,

681
00:35:07.599 --> 00:35:10.559
<v Speaker 1>and so I don't read some of these opinions where

682
00:35:10.599 --> 00:35:13.519
<v Speaker 1>I would have gone the other way as somehow alarming

683
00:35:13.880 --> 00:35:18.639
<v Speaker 1>or concerning. She strikes me as the last justice on

684
00:35:18.760 --> 00:35:20.559
<v Speaker 1>the face of the earth, or the last judge on

685
00:35:20.599 --> 00:35:22.400
<v Speaker 1>the face of the earth, who's going to get swept

686
00:35:22.440 --> 00:35:25.840
<v Speaker 1>away in wanting to impress the East coast to lead

687
00:35:25.960 --> 00:35:28.840
<v Speaker 1>or anything like that. I think you've got somebody of

688
00:35:29.000 --> 00:35:33.519
<v Speaker 1>deep faith who just feels this obligation to follow the

689
00:35:33.639 --> 00:35:36.440
<v Speaker 1>law as she sees it, no matter where it leads her.

690
00:35:37.400 --> 00:35:42.400
<v Speaker 1>But no, I'm very very happy that she got appointed,

691
00:35:43.320 --> 00:35:45.400
<v Speaker 1>and I'm optimistic about the future with her. I know

692
00:35:45.480 --> 00:35:48.679
<v Speaker 1>others disagree. We'll take those calls as well. And when

693
00:35:48.719 --> 00:35:51.119
<v Speaker 1>we come back another topic, how do you explain the

694
00:35:51.280 --> 00:35:53.039
<v Speaker 1>huge turnout on ASH Wednesday?

695
00:35:53.159 --> 00:35:54.039
<v Speaker 3>Is the world changing
