00:00:06.320 --> 00:00:12.320
<v Speaker 1>Ladies and gentlemen in this corner from the University of Colorado,

2
00:00:13.199 --> 00:00:17.839
<v Speaker 1>thirty years in Lorraine, fighting for truth, justice and.

3
00:00:17.760 --> 00:00:25.399
<v Speaker 2>The American Way. Dan Chaplas, Welcome back to the second

4
00:00:25.399 --> 00:00:27.879
<v Speaker 2>Holary Dan Kaplo Show. I'm Christy Burton Brown in for

5
00:00:28.079 --> 00:00:30.719
<v Speaker 2>Dan today. Thanks for joining us. You can call in

6
00:00:30.800 --> 00:00:33.200
<v Speaker 2>anytime during the show eight five to five four zero

7
00:00:33.320 --> 00:00:36.079
<v Speaker 2>five eight two five five. You can also text your

8
00:00:36.119 --> 00:00:39.640
<v Speaker 2>thoughts five seven, seven three nine to Dan. We are

9
00:00:39.759 --> 00:00:43.000
<v Speaker 2>going through some media hits that happened in twenty twenty

10
00:00:43.079 --> 00:00:46.039
<v Speaker 2>four that are pretty bad for the main three media

11
00:00:46.039 --> 00:00:49.399
<v Speaker 2>and Democrats, and so we're already on number five. We've

12
00:00:49.439 --> 00:00:51.640
<v Speaker 2>been going through ten of them, so we have a

13
00:00:51.640 --> 00:00:53.439
<v Speaker 2>few more to cover. If you missed the first one,

14
00:00:53.479 --> 00:00:55.079
<v Speaker 2>you can go back and listen in the last hour.

15
00:00:55.679 --> 00:01:00.200
<v Speaker 2>Some fun stuff like actually believing that Republicans were faking

16
00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:04.159
<v Speaker 2>Biden's clips when he was very mentally incompetent during the campaign.

17
00:01:04.159 --> 00:01:06.000
<v Speaker 2>That was actually an accusation that went around if you've

18
00:01:06.000 --> 00:01:09.239
<v Speaker 2>forgotten since the election. And then of course the heights

19
00:01:09.280 --> 00:01:12.280
<v Speaker 2>that the media created around Beyonce supposedly performing at a

20
00:01:12.319 --> 00:01:15.599
<v Speaker 2>Kamala rally. And I've gotta say, actually I'll stop right there.

21
00:01:16.319 --> 00:01:18.920
<v Speaker 2>During the campaign, my family was actually in California for

22
00:01:18.959 --> 00:01:20.959
<v Speaker 2>a little bit of time. We were at a child

23
00:01:21.040 --> 00:01:24.920
<v Speaker 2>evangelism conference. Actually really great event, really great organization. But

24
00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:26.480
<v Speaker 2>my son was sick one of the nights, so he

25
00:01:26.519 --> 00:01:28.640
<v Speaker 2>and I went back up to the hotel room to

26
00:01:29.079 --> 00:01:32.079
<v Speaker 2>watch some TV so that he could chill out and

27
00:01:32.159 --> 00:01:33.599
<v Speaker 2>rest a little bit, and so we turned on a

28
00:01:33.599 --> 00:01:35.359
<v Speaker 2>baseball game for a while. But as we were flipping

29
00:01:35.400 --> 00:01:38.599
<v Speaker 2>through the channels, we came upon a Kamala rally, and

30
00:01:38.719 --> 00:01:40.840
<v Speaker 2>being the I guess, very political mom that I am,

31
00:01:40.879 --> 00:01:42.120
<v Speaker 2>I was like, hey, let's keep this on for a

32
00:01:42.159 --> 00:01:46.359
<v Speaker 2>few minutes, and so we did, and the entire rally

33
00:01:46.799 --> 00:01:50.359
<v Speaker 2>was a reproductive rights rally. It was all about abortion.

34
00:01:50.719 --> 00:01:53.840
<v Speaker 2>That's literally all her and her speakers and people were

35
00:01:53.840 --> 00:01:57.879
<v Speaker 2>talking about. And for all the accusations that conservatives are

36
00:01:57.920 --> 00:02:00.959
<v Speaker 2>one issue voters and all we care about the stopping abortion,

37
00:02:01.079 --> 00:02:04.159
<v Speaker 2>which I'm happy to admit that is my number one issue,

38
00:02:04.719 --> 00:02:06.920
<v Speaker 2>I've never hidden that at all. In fact, I met

39
00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:09.599
<v Speaker 2>Dan working when I was working on a pro life campaign.

40
00:02:09.599 --> 00:02:11.240
<v Speaker 2>It's actually the first time he had me on his show.

41
00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:14.360
<v Speaker 2>When I was about twenty years old. Way back then,

42
00:02:14.759 --> 00:02:16.080
<v Speaker 2>was on the pro life issue. So I love the

43
00:02:16.080 --> 00:02:18.680
<v Speaker 2>issue absolutely, but you know, it's always the liberals that

44
00:02:18.680 --> 00:02:20.919
<v Speaker 2>claim the Republicans are the one issue voters on that issue,

45
00:02:20.960 --> 00:02:24.560
<v Speaker 2>and their presidential candidate is having this big rally all

46
00:02:24.639 --> 00:02:27.919
<v Speaker 2>about abortion, and obviously it didn't work out so well

47
00:02:27.960 --> 00:02:29.960
<v Speaker 2>for her. But I was very disappointed that, you know,

48
00:02:29.960 --> 00:02:32.960
<v Speaker 2>I want to show my son politics and expose him

49
00:02:32.960 --> 00:02:34.439
<v Speaker 2>a little bit to the other side, and here's what

50
00:02:34.439 --> 00:02:36.840
<v Speaker 2>they're talking about, and that's what her entire rally is about,

51
00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:40.199
<v Speaker 2>is abortion, abortion, abortion. Very disappointing. I'm happy the American

52
00:02:40.240 --> 00:02:43.120
<v Speaker 2>public did not go for that this year. Let's get

53
00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:44.719
<v Speaker 2>Let's get to number five on these clips.

54
00:02:44.919 --> 00:02:48.319
<v Speaker 3>Number five, Tim Wats is the best. Jd Vance is

55
00:02:48.360 --> 00:02:48.800
<v Speaker 3>the worst.

56
00:02:49.080 --> 00:02:53.240
<v Speaker 2>Midwestern dad like super clean cut five everybody likes.

57
00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:57.120
<v Speaker 4>Right, so claim spoken and relatable, pretty moderate Democrat, very

58
00:02:57.159 --> 00:03:00.360
<v Speaker 4>moderate ragger, new moderates, right down the middle.

59
00:03:00.360 --> 00:03:02.080
<v Speaker 2>He's not just an old white man walts be.

60
00:03:02.080 --> 00:03:05.360
<v Speaker 3>It's America, you know, a Hawks like a regular person.

61
00:03:05.680 --> 00:03:10.719
<v Speaker 4>Is the opposite of weird populist approach to fear on the.

62
00:03:09.960 --> 00:03:13.520
<v Speaker 5>Republican side and the happy populism that Jim Walls is

63
00:03:13.520 --> 00:03:16.159
<v Speaker 5>on the ticket on the democratic side.

64
00:03:16.039 --> 00:03:17.759
<v Speaker 6>Happy warriors, happy warriors.

65
00:03:17.800 --> 00:03:20.840
<v Speaker 7>He was certainly the happy warrior that night, happy warrior,

66
00:03:21.000 --> 00:03:23.879
<v Speaker 7>folksy backstory, maken sense of humor, look at happy the

67
00:03:23.919 --> 00:03:25.960
<v Speaker 7>pig looks good.

68
00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:31.039
<v Speaker 8>And JD Vance is weird, extreme and angry.

69
00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:32.759
<v Speaker 7>Utter humorlessness.

70
00:03:32.840 --> 00:03:35.520
<v Speaker 8>Try to believe that jd Vance could be any more extreme.

71
00:03:35.599 --> 00:03:37.800
<v Speaker 7>It's like a freak show of bros.

72
00:03:37.879 --> 00:03:43.520
<v Speaker 2>Dark and ugly beneath the dignity of most politicians JV Vance.

73
00:03:43.840 --> 00:03:47.159
<v Speaker 9>J D is at the far extreme, the most extreming,

74
00:03:47.199 --> 00:03:47.439
<v Speaker 9>one of the.

75
00:03:47.439 --> 00:03:49.319
<v Speaker 7>Most extreme, angry and mean and dark.

76
00:03:49.360 --> 00:03:50.599
<v Speaker 9>This guy is really weird, y'all.

77
00:03:50.680 --> 00:03:54.039
<v Speaker 2>Number four, Okay, that's probably my favorite on the whole list,

78
00:03:54.439 --> 00:03:57.240
<v Speaker 2>just because it has proved so insanely wrong. When anyone

79
00:03:57.280 --> 00:04:00.879
<v Speaker 2>watched the vice presidential debate, I mean hello, that became

80
00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:04.960
<v Speaker 2>the most obvious example of the real differences in JD

81
00:04:05.080 --> 00:04:07.400
<v Speaker 2>Vance and Tim Walls, And no, Tim Walls was not

82
00:04:07.479 --> 00:04:09.800
<v Speaker 2>the normal guy of the two, and that became very

83
00:04:09.800 --> 00:04:15.039
<v Speaker 2>badly obvious. Also, you know, I think it just shows

84
00:04:15.800 --> 00:04:18.279
<v Speaker 2>how often the media likes to tell people what to

85
00:04:18.360 --> 00:04:20.720
<v Speaker 2>think instead of I mean, hey, let us watch Tim

86
00:04:20.720 --> 00:04:22.639
<v Speaker 2>Walls and let us watch jadid Vance, and we'll come

87
00:04:22.680 --> 00:04:25.519
<v Speaker 2>to our own opinions, and in fact, pulling close to

88
00:04:25.560 --> 00:04:28.959
<v Speaker 2>the election showed that of all four people running for

89
00:04:29.000 --> 00:04:32.560
<v Speaker 2>president and vice president, so Donald Trump, Kamala Harris, Tim Walls, JD. Vance,

90
00:04:32.920 --> 00:04:35.600
<v Speaker 2>the person who gained the most throughout the campaign in

91
00:04:35.639 --> 00:04:37.560
<v Speaker 2>approval ratings was JD.

92
00:04:37.720 --> 00:04:38.040
<v Speaker 3>Vance.

93
00:04:38.399 --> 00:04:41.720
<v Speaker 2>The more America saw of him, the more they liked actually,

94
00:04:42.079 --> 00:04:45.319
<v Speaker 2>and that was proven through polling, through showing what people

95
00:04:45.600 --> 00:04:48.920
<v Speaker 2>off the street, random people of all demographics thoughts, he

96
00:04:49.079 --> 00:04:51.480
<v Speaker 2>gained the most, and the more people saw him, the

97
00:04:51.480 --> 00:04:53.639
<v Speaker 2>more they actually liked him. So they didn't need the

98
00:04:53.639 --> 00:04:55.560
<v Speaker 2>media coming in and being I mean, I mean, I'm sorry,

99
00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:57.519
<v Speaker 2>but stop for a second if you have to say,

100
00:04:57.920 --> 00:05:01.720
<v Speaker 2>this guy is not weird, Tim Wall, So, like, what

101
00:05:01.800 --> 00:05:03.839
<v Speaker 2>does that tell you? You know that everyone else is

102
00:05:03.879 --> 00:05:06.279
<v Speaker 2>thinking when they see him, Oh, this guy's weird, But

103
00:05:06.360 --> 00:05:08.720
<v Speaker 2>let's tell you he's not. I mean, if someone isn't weird,

104
00:05:08.759 --> 00:05:10.680
<v Speaker 2>you'll be able to watch them and see them and

105
00:05:10.759 --> 00:05:13.680
<v Speaker 2>come to that conclusion yourself. Once again, we see that

106
00:05:13.720 --> 00:05:16.040
<v Speaker 2>the media prefers to think that people cannot think for

107
00:05:16.079 --> 00:05:19.439
<v Speaker 2>themselves and must be told what to think. But Americans

108
00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:22.279
<v Speaker 2>are known for our independence and our free thinking, and

109
00:05:22.360 --> 00:05:25.240
<v Speaker 2>that we can come to our own conclusions. So I

110
00:05:25.439 --> 00:05:29.079
<v Speaker 2>just love that the media, which loves to blast old

111
00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:32.079
<v Speaker 2>white men as some terrible thing, had to point out

112
00:05:32.079 --> 00:05:35.079
<v Speaker 2>Tim Walls is not just an old white guy, like

113
00:05:35.720 --> 00:05:38.160
<v Speaker 2>that's the ticket the Democrats that chose to pick an

114
00:05:38.160 --> 00:05:40.360
<v Speaker 2>old white man. And I zero objection to old white

115
00:05:40.360 --> 00:05:42.639
<v Speaker 2>men getting elected to office and running. I mean, I

116
00:05:42.680 --> 00:05:44.839
<v Speaker 2>think it's great. It's part of America. They're Americans too,

117
00:05:44.879 --> 00:05:49.040
<v Speaker 2>they have every right. But who actually picked the person

118
00:05:49.079 --> 00:05:52.959
<v Speaker 2>with a true American dreams story of the Republicans? Jade Vance,

119
00:05:53.040 --> 00:05:56.079
<v Speaker 2>first millennial in the White House now that he's elected,

120
00:05:57.079 --> 00:06:01.839
<v Speaker 2>married to the daughter of immigrants, came from Appalachia, one

121
00:06:01.839 --> 00:06:05.279
<v Speaker 2>of the poorest areas of the country, the son of

122
00:06:05.519 --> 00:06:09.120
<v Speaker 2>drug addicts, who went on to make something of himself

123
00:06:09.160 --> 00:06:12.079
<v Speaker 2>and create one of the best American dream stories out there.

124
00:06:12.279 --> 00:06:14.759
<v Speaker 2>But could we point that out as the meanstream media? No,

125
00:06:14.839 --> 00:06:16.399
<v Speaker 2>of course not. Let's just talk about the Tim Wolves

126
00:06:16.439 --> 00:06:18.120
<v Speaker 2>isn't actually goofy, even though you can see it for

127
00:06:18.160 --> 00:06:19.959
<v Speaker 2>your own self. Let's go to number four.

128
00:06:20.439 --> 00:06:24.439
<v Speaker 3>Number four, very very bad things will happen if Trump wins.

129
00:06:24.839 --> 00:06:28.399
<v Speaker 10>Think about what happens if all of our access to

130
00:06:28.439 --> 00:06:29.680
<v Speaker 10>healthcare goes away?

131
00:06:29.959 --> 00:06:32.519
<v Speaker 9>Next Tuesday. The stakes literally.

132
00:06:32.120 --> 00:06:35.240
<v Speaker 7>Are life and death for every woman in America. It's

133
00:06:35.240 --> 00:06:37.319
<v Speaker 7>not hyperbole, it's not an exaggeration.

134
00:06:37.480 --> 00:06:40.079
<v Speaker 4>Prop will fulfill his promise to be a dictator on

135
00:06:40.199 --> 00:06:40.639
<v Speaker 4>day one.

136
00:06:40.800 --> 00:06:43.040
<v Speaker 2>That's up a network of.

137
00:06:43.240 --> 00:06:45.959
<v Speaker 5>Camps, extraordinarily erratic foreign policy.

138
00:06:45.680 --> 00:06:48.759
<v Speaker 6>In the Middle East being profound and possibly permanent damage

139
00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:49.959
<v Speaker 6>to American democracy.

140
00:06:50.360 --> 00:06:53.959
<v Speaker 8>If historians in the future are allowed to write books,

141
00:06:54.319 --> 00:06:56.839
<v Speaker 8>and by the way, that question is open this morning,

142
00:06:57.319 --> 00:06:59.839
<v Speaker 8>and if people are allowed to go on television and

143
00:07:00.040 --> 00:07:03.319
<v Speaker 8>say what they think in the future, which again that

144
00:07:03.439 --> 00:07:06.879
<v Speaker 8>question is open this morning. That's what happens when strong

145
00:07:06.920 --> 00:07:10.759
<v Speaker 8>men come to power. That happened in Italy in the

146
00:07:10.879 --> 00:07:14.319
<v Speaker 8>nineteen twenties and nineteen thirties, Germany and the nineteen thirties,

147
00:07:14.560 --> 00:07:18.800
<v Speaker 8>suspend the constitution, fit the Justice Department, the Defense Department

148
00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:23.240
<v Speaker 8>against political enemies, and run this country out of the

149
00:07:23.240 --> 00:07:23.759
<v Speaker 8>White House.

150
00:07:23.839 --> 00:07:24.319
<v Speaker 3>Number three.

151
00:07:25.519 --> 00:07:29.279
<v Speaker 2>All right, Well, that's some conspiracy theories for you. If

152
00:07:29.279 --> 00:07:32.079
<v Speaker 2>you ever hear that only the right is conspiracy theorist,

153
00:07:32.199 --> 00:07:35.199
<v Speaker 2>replay that clip for yourself. I mean anything from setting

154
00:07:35.240 --> 00:07:37.959
<v Speaker 2>up camps, to banning historians and writing books, to the

155
00:07:37.959 --> 00:07:40.560
<v Speaker 2>election being a life or death matter for women. I

156
00:07:40.600 --> 00:07:43.439
<v Speaker 2>am a woman, I have children. I actually was pregnant

157
00:07:43.480 --> 00:07:46.439
<v Speaker 2>when I took the bar exam for after law school

158
00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:49.439
<v Speaker 2>with my first daughter. Like I believe in women being

159
00:07:49.519 --> 00:07:52.079
<v Speaker 2>empowered to pursue their dreams, but I do not believe

160
00:07:52.439 --> 00:07:56.360
<v Speaker 2>that also choosing to be a mother and embracing life

161
00:07:56.399 --> 00:08:00.160
<v Speaker 2>within you doesn't hurt your dreams at all. A completely

162
00:08:00.199 --> 00:08:02.680
<v Speaker 2>fault narrative. I really dislike it. And I think that

163
00:08:03.000 --> 00:08:07.000
<v Speaker 2>Democrat narrative and Kambla. Harris's narrative is what actually makes

164
00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:09.040
<v Speaker 2>women feel like they're weak and they can't do things

165
00:08:09.079 --> 00:08:11.399
<v Speaker 2>because you're told you have to choose between being an

166
00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:13.800
<v Speaker 2>empowered woman and giving life to your children. And it's

167
00:08:13.839 --> 00:08:16.040
<v Speaker 2>not an either or a choice. You could absolutely do both.

168
00:08:16.360 --> 00:08:18.000
<v Speaker 2>So that's just one thing I don't like about what

169
00:08:18.040 --> 00:08:21.439
<v Speaker 2>they said. But the historians can't write books ripping up

170
00:08:21.480 --> 00:08:25.000
<v Speaker 2>the constitution. Trump has never even hinted at doing any

171
00:08:25.040 --> 00:08:27.199
<v Speaker 2>of these things, and yet the mainstream media took it

172
00:08:27.279 --> 00:08:28.959
<v Speaker 2>upon themselves to say, we're going to make sure he

173
00:08:29.000 --> 00:08:32.720
<v Speaker 2>doesn't get elected by scaring Americans into a particular choice.

174
00:08:32.759 --> 00:08:34.960
<v Speaker 2>And you know what, maybe that worked during COVID when

175
00:08:34.960 --> 00:08:37.840
<v Speaker 2>people were actually scared and in their homes and weren't

176
00:08:37.840 --> 00:08:41.279
<v Speaker 2>actually conversing with other people and having real discussions. But

177
00:08:41.360 --> 00:08:43.440
<v Speaker 2>that's not the world we live in anymore, thank god.

178
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:46.799
<v Speaker 2>And people were out there having conversations, researching for themselves

179
00:08:47.000 --> 00:08:49.159
<v Speaker 2>and thinking that they didn't want to repeat the last

180
00:08:49.200 --> 00:08:52.480
<v Speaker 2>four years. And thankfully, whatever you think of Donald Trump,

181
00:08:52.600 --> 00:08:56.480
<v Speaker 2>the American system is strong enough to prevent a dictator

182
00:08:56.519 --> 00:09:00.399
<v Speaker 2>from taking hold and under our system of balanced government

183
00:09:00.480 --> 00:09:02.720
<v Speaker 2>with three different branches, that is actually not a risk

184
00:09:02.759 --> 00:09:05.600
<v Speaker 2>we have in America because the system and the people

185
00:09:05.639 --> 00:09:09.120
<v Speaker 2>would stop someone from taking power like that. Very confidentive

186
00:09:09.120 --> 00:09:11.039
<v Speaker 2>of that, and we're going to see that proved out

187
00:09:10.600 --> 00:09:13.919
<v Speaker 2>in the next four years. You're on the Dan Kapli Show.

188
00:09:13.919 --> 00:09:15.600
<v Speaker 2>I'm Kristy Burton Brown. You can call in over the

189
00:09:15.639 --> 00:09:18.240
<v Speaker 2>break eight five five four zero five eight two five

190
00:09:18.360 --> 00:09:20.679
<v Speaker 2>five or text your thoughts to five seven seven three nine.

191
00:09:20.759 --> 00:09:22.639
<v Speaker 2>Start it with Dan. We have three more hits to

192
00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:24.720
<v Speaker 2>go when you come back. You're back on the Dan

193
00:09:24.759 --> 00:09:27.399
<v Speaker 2>Cakpla Show. I'm Christy Burton Brown. We've been covering some

194
00:09:27.480 --> 00:09:30.039
<v Speaker 2>of the worst media clips from twenty twenty four, a

195
00:09:30.039 --> 00:09:32.559
<v Speaker 2>good list of ten of them. We have three left.

196
00:09:32.600 --> 00:09:34.720
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna try and cover them. All in this last

197
00:09:34.879 --> 00:09:36.759
<v Speaker 2>or not this last segment. We still have lots of

198
00:09:36.759 --> 00:09:38.600
<v Speaker 2>segments left. But what I want to do in our

199
00:09:38.679 --> 00:09:40.600
<v Speaker 2>last segments today is talk about what Trump's going to

200
00:09:40.639 --> 00:09:42.799
<v Speaker 2>do in his first few hours in office. He's actually

201
00:09:42.840 --> 00:09:45.320
<v Speaker 2>made promises about the first few hours and then the

202
00:09:45.320 --> 00:09:47.879
<v Speaker 2>first one hundred days that every president tends to set

203
00:09:47.879 --> 00:09:50.000
<v Speaker 2>out an agenda four. And I'm going to tell you

204
00:09:50.000 --> 00:09:51.519
<v Speaker 2>some things I think he should make sure and do

205
00:09:51.559 --> 00:09:53.399
<v Speaker 2>in those first one hundred days, and I hope you'll

206
00:09:53.440 --> 00:09:55.840
<v Speaker 2>share your thoughts about what he should do. But I'm

207
00:09:55.879 --> 00:09:58.879
<v Speaker 2>gonna go over to my text line. And one of

208
00:09:58.919 --> 00:10:01.519
<v Speaker 2>the clips we played was about how you know, the

209
00:10:01.559 --> 00:10:04.159
<v Speaker 2>media wanted to talk since Elon Musk took over Twitter,

210
00:10:04.200 --> 00:10:07.440
<v Speaker 2>how it was filled with misinformation and conservatives are just

211
00:10:07.519 --> 00:10:10.080
<v Speaker 2>lying to everyone, and this texter says, I find it

212
00:10:10.120 --> 00:10:13.200
<v Speaker 2>amazing that Elon Musk was the messiah with the left

213
00:10:13.240 --> 00:10:15.320
<v Speaker 2>when he came up with Tesla, because of course, you know,

214
00:10:15.440 --> 00:10:18.559
<v Speaker 2>electric vehicles, They liked all that. But now he's a

215
00:10:18.600 --> 00:10:22.200
<v Speaker 2>pariah because he doesn't agree with some leftist people's ideas.

216
00:10:22.559 --> 00:10:25.320
<v Speaker 2>Tells a lot there, and I agree very much. It's

217
00:10:25.360 --> 00:10:28.200
<v Speaker 2>often not based on what you actually do but whether

218
00:10:28.279 --> 00:10:30.320
<v Speaker 2>or not they agree with you, that that's how they

219
00:10:30.320 --> 00:10:32.240
<v Speaker 2>base what they say about you. And the media often

220
00:10:32.519 --> 00:10:34.480
<v Speaker 2>which is not reporting the news. As I've said a

221
00:10:34.519 --> 00:10:36.240
<v Speaker 2>little bit earlier, if you have a talk show, I

222
00:10:36.240 --> 00:10:39.639
<v Speaker 2>mean radio is talk shows. So clearly we're all about

223
00:10:39.639 --> 00:10:41.679
<v Speaker 2>saying our opinions here. But I would say we freely

224
00:10:41.679 --> 00:10:45.919
<v Speaker 2>disclosed that we're talking about our opinions, not solely reporting

225
00:10:45.960 --> 00:10:47.720
<v Speaker 2>the news and letting you decide. We'd tell you what

226
00:10:47.759 --> 00:10:49.039
<v Speaker 2>we think. If you don't like it, you don't have

227
00:10:49.080 --> 00:10:51.240
<v Speaker 2>to listen. That's sort of how talk radio is, and

228
00:10:51.279 --> 00:10:53.720
<v Speaker 2>how a lot of talk shows are. When we're talking

229
00:10:53.759 --> 00:10:56.480
<v Speaker 2>about the nightly news that people to go to get information.

230
00:10:56.879 --> 00:10:58.879
<v Speaker 2>It shouldn't be based on what you agree with and

231
00:10:58.919 --> 00:11:01.000
<v Speaker 2>don't agree with. It should be based on the facts,

232
00:11:01.000 --> 00:11:03.320
<v Speaker 2>and sadly that's not where we are. We'll see more

233
00:11:03.320 --> 00:11:05.840
<v Speaker 2>of this in the last three clips. Let's hit number three.

234
00:11:05.960 --> 00:11:09.600
<v Speaker 3>Number three, Joe Biden would never pardon his son because

235
00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:10.919
<v Speaker 3>he is such a great guy.

236
00:11:11.159 --> 00:11:14.639
<v Speaker 10>Presidential promise to put the law before a family.

237
00:11:14.679 --> 00:11:17.679
<v Speaker 7>The president has ruled out pardoning his son.

238
00:11:17.879 --> 00:11:20.080
<v Speaker 6>Pledging not to pardon his son.

239
00:11:20.000 --> 00:11:21.360
<v Speaker 4>Just sit there and say, well, I'm not going to

240
00:11:21.399 --> 00:11:24.759
<v Speaker 4>intervene in the legal process, and I wouldn't pardon my son.

241
00:11:25.080 --> 00:11:28.720
<v Speaker 4>Democrats and Joe Biden protecting the justice system. A current

242
00:11:28.799 --> 00:11:32.720
<v Speaker 4>president of the United States has so much respect for

243
00:11:32.759 --> 00:11:34.840
<v Speaker 4>the law that he has said he would not pardon

244
00:11:35.000 --> 00:11:35.480
<v Speaker 4>his son.

245
00:11:35.759 --> 00:11:38.919
<v Speaker 6>And Joe Biden has very clearly said he would not

246
00:11:39.039 --> 00:11:41.600
<v Speaker 6>pardon his son, he would not commune his sentence. How

247
00:11:41.639 --> 00:11:44.679
<v Speaker 6>can Republicans keep making this argument now that now that

248
00:11:44.759 --> 00:11:46.639
<v Speaker 6>Joe Biden has really put it out there, he.

249
00:11:46.639 --> 00:11:49.519
<v Speaker 7>Is not doing it because he is living what it

250
00:11:49.600 --> 00:11:52.919
<v Speaker 7>means to have a rule of law in this country.

251
00:11:53.039 --> 00:11:55.559
<v Speaker 7>And then it is I mean, if you want to

252
00:11:55.600 --> 00:11:59.600
<v Speaker 7>know if he believes it, you could actually see what

253
00:11:59.679 --> 00:12:01.840
<v Speaker 7>is happening with his own son.

254
00:12:02.000 --> 00:12:04.200
<v Speaker 10>Even President Biden saying in a statement that he would

255
00:12:04.200 --> 00:12:06.240
<v Speaker 10>respect the outcome of this case.

256
00:12:06.559 --> 00:12:09.879
<v Speaker 5>This was a good day for the system, good day

257
00:12:09.919 --> 00:12:15.000
<v Speaker 5>for sort of of sort of America. As an example

258
00:12:15.480 --> 00:12:17.879
<v Speaker 5>of how the rule of law should work.

259
00:12:17.960 --> 00:12:20.200
<v Speaker 4>We're coming on the air at this hour with breaking news.

260
00:12:20.480 --> 00:12:23.879
<v Speaker 4>President Biden has just pardoned his son Hunter number two.

261
00:12:24.279 --> 00:12:26.080
<v Speaker 2>Well, there we go, and that's what happens when you

262
00:12:26.120 --> 00:12:28.080
<v Speaker 2>don't just report the news. He says he's not going

263
00:12:28.120 --> 00:12:30.679
<v Speaker 2>to pardon his son. Instead you give like this long,

264
00:12:31.080 --> 00:12:34.200
<v Speaker 2>I don't know, wonderful explanation of because he's such a

265
00:12:34.240 --> 00:12:36.080
<v Speaker 2>great guy and because he believes in the rule of law,

266
00:12:36.320 --> 00:12:37.919
<v Speaker 2>you don't know why he's saying what he's saying or

267
00:12:37.960 --> 00:12:39.759
<v Speaker 2>if he's going to actually stick to it, which he

268
00:12:39.799 --> 00:12:42.080
<v Speaker 2>clearly didn't. So maybe you should just report the news

269
00:12:42.120 --> 00:12:44.200
<v Speaker 2>and then it's all on him if he then changes

270
00:12:44.200 --> 00:12:46.320
<v Speaker 2>his mind and gets it wrong. I'll say as a

271
00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:48.720
<v Speaker 2>side note, a good friend of mine and I had

272
00:12:48.759 --> 00:12:52.720
<v Speaker 2>a conversation recently after the Hunter Biden pardon and just

273
00:12:52.759 --> 00:12:55.200
<v Speaker 2>talked about whether or not we thought presidents should actually

274
00:12:55.240 --> 00:12:58.559
<v Speaker 2>have the pardon ability. Governors have it too, But you

275
00:12:58.679 --> 00:13:01.240
<v Speaker 2>see Joe Biden in his last few days, I think

276
00:13:01.240 --> 00:13:03.759
<v Speaker 2>he gave them clemency rather than fully pardoning them, because

277
00:13:03.759 --> 00:13:07.279
<v Speaker 2>you can't actually just release someone who has the death sentence,

278
00:13:07.320 --> 00:13:09.879
<v Speaker 2>I don't think, but he gave them clemency and so

279
00:13:09.960 --> 00:13:12.200
<v Speaker 2>he pulled off the death sentence for I think thirty

280
00:13:12.279 --> 00:13:14.519
<v Speaker 2>seven different people. So my head that I had an

281
00:13:14.519 --> 00:13:16.960
<v Speaker 2>interesting discussion of whether or not you think a president

282
00:13:17.000 --> 00:13:20.000
<v Speaker 2>should have that ability because or a governor for that matter,

283
00:13:20.039 --> 00:13:22.320
<v Speaker 2>because is it just people with access to the president

284
00:13:22.360 --> 00:13:24.919
<v Speaker 2>and the governor who can get these pardons, and a

285
00:13:24.960 --> 00:13:27.600
<v Speaker 2>lot of other people equally or more deserving have no

286
00:13:27.679 --> 00:13:30.720
<v Speaker 2>access and therefore can't get them. Very interesting conversation you

287
00:13:30.720 --> 00:13:33.320
<v Speaker 2>could think about it. I think they should have pardoning ability.

288
00:13:33.600 --> 00:13:35.519
<v Speaker 2>I think it's one of the branches of government and

289
00:13:35.600 --> 00:13:38.600
<v Speaker 2>unique ability that the executive branch has. I do think

290
00:13:38.639 --> 00:13:41.960
<v Speaker 2>people can get access and appeal. But there's a bussle

291
00:13:42.039 --> 00:13:45.240
<v Speaker 2>pole opinions on that, so think what you want about it.

292
00:13:45.240 --> 00:13:47.679
<v Speaker 2>It's an interesting question. At the very least. Let's go

293
00:13:47.679 --> 00:13:48.279
<v Speaker 2>to number two.

294
00:13:48.440 --> 00:13:52.559
<v Speaker 3>Number two, Media gets caught editing interviews to help Kamala Harris.

295
00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:56.320
<v Speaker 9>When we talk about bringing down prices and making life

296
00:13:56.679 --> 00:13:59.879
<v Speaker 9>more affordable for people, what are two specific things you

297
00:14:00.080 --> 00:14:00.879
<v Speaker 9>have in mind for that.

298
00:14:01.320 --> 00:14:04.399
<v Speaker 10>Well, I'll start with this. I grew up a middle

299
00:14:04.399 --> 00:14:07.799
<v Speaker 10>class kid. My mother raised my sister and me. She

300
00:14:07.919 --> 00:14:11.960
<v Speaker 10>worked very hard. She was able to finally save up

301
00:14:12.039 --> 00:14:14.720
<v Speaker 10>enough money to buy our first house when I was

302
00:14:14.799 --> 00:14:18.360
<v Speaker 10>a teenager. I grew up in a community of hard

303
00:14:18.440 --> 00:14:22.519
<v Speaker 10>working people, you know, construction workers and nurses and teachers.

304
00:14:22.559 --> 00:14:25.679
<v Speaker 10>And I try to explain to some people who may

305
00:14:25.679 --> 00:14:28.879
<v Speaker 10>not have had the same experience. You know, but a

306
00:14:28.879 --> 00:14:31.240
<v Speaker 10>lot of people will relate to this. You know, I

307
00:14:31.240 --> 00:14:33.399
<v Speaker 10>grew up in a neighborhood of folks who are very

308
00:14:33.399 --> 00:14:34.200
<v Speaker 10>proud of their lawn.

309
00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:39.080
<v Speaker 9>You know, when we talk about bringing down prices and

310
00:14:39.120 --> 00:14:43.120
<v Speaker 9>making life more affordable for people, one or two specific

311
00:14:43.200 --> 00:14:44.279
<v Speaker 9>things you have in mind for that.

312
00:14:44.960 --> 00:14:48.879
<v Speaker 10>So when I talk about building an opportunity economy, it

313
00:14:48.960 --> 00:14:53.120
<v Speaker 10>is very much with the mind of investing in the

314
00:14:53.200 --> 00:14:57.000
<v Speaker 10>ambitions and aspirations and the incredible work ethic of the

315
00:14:57.000 --> 00:14:57.799
<v Speaker 10>American people.

316
00:14:58.000 --> 00:15:02.120
<v Speaker 7>But it seems that Primar and Ya who is not listening.

317
00:15:02.759 --> 00:15:07.840
<v Speaker 10>Well, Bill, the work that we have done has resulted

318
00:15:08.200 --> 00:15:13.600
<v Speaker 10>in a number of movements in that region by Israel

319
00:15:13.720 --> 00:15:19.360
<v Speaker 10>that were very much prompted by or a result of

320
00:15:19.879 --> 00:15:23.519
<v Speaker 10>many things, including our advocacy for what needs to happen

321
00:15:23.559 --> 00:15:24.039
<v Speaker 10>in the region.

322
00:15:24.080 --> 00:15:28.120
<v Speaker 7>But it seems that Prime Minister Netanya who is not listening.

323
00:15:28.440 --> 00:15:32.039
<v Speaker 10>We're not going to stop pursuing what is necessary for

324
00:15:32.080 --> 00:15:34.320
<v Speaker 10>the United States to be clear about where we stand

325
00:15:34.360 --> 00:15:36.120
<v Speaker 10>on the need for this war to end.

326
00:15:36.240 --> 00:15:36.759
<v Speaker 3>Number one.

327
00:15:37.600 --> 00:15:40.000
<v Speaker 2>Okay, Well, it's a bunch of word solid And as

328
00:15:40.279 --> 00:15:42.720
<v Speaker 2>voters decided, Kamala Harris wouldn't represent us well in the

329
00:15:42.759 --> 00:15:46.000
<v Speaker 2>international stage, in large part because when she's asked to

330
00:15:46.000 --> 00:15:49.320
<v Speaker 2>answer a question with ideas, she gives stories. Stories are

331
00:15:49.320 --> 00:15:52.519
<v Speaker 2>not ideas. Stories are not answers. They might be interesting

332
00:15:52.559 --> 00:15:54.759
<v Speaker 2>in her case, they're not even that. But saying that

333
00:15:54.759 --> 00:15:56.200
<v Speaker 2>you grew up with people who are very proud of

334
00:15:56.240 --> 00:15:59.159
<v Speaker 2>their laws isn't an answer for her going to make

335
00:15:59.559 --> 00:16:02.799
<v Speaker 2>homes affordable for people of the United States. So yeah,

336
00:16:02.919 --> 00:16:05.679
<v Speaker 2>media love to cover for her, love to make good clips.

337
00:16:05.759 --> 00:16:08.159
<v Speaker 2>When you actually listen to the full answer, you see

338
00:16:08.200 --> 00:16:10.360
<v Speaker 2>that she doesn't have one. All right, let's go to

339
00:16:10.360 --> 00:16:10.960
<v Speaker 2>the number one.

340
00:16:11.039 --> 00:16:15.360
<v Speaker 3>Number one, there's no cognitive decline. In fact, Biden has

341
00:16:15.480 --> 00:16:16.360
<v Speaker 3>never been better.

342
00:16:16.480 --> 00:16:18.960
<v Speaker 8>Start your tape right now, because I'm about to tell

343
00:16:18.960 --> 00:16:19.559
<v Speaker 8>you the truth.

344
00:16:20.080 --> 00:16:24.519
<v Speaker 9>This version of Biden is the best Biden.

345
00:16:24.240 --> 00:16:27.360
<v Speaker 2>Ever he knows so long as he was.

346
00:16:28.440 --> 00:16:31.159
<v Speaker 1>In fact, I think he's better than he's ever been.

347
00:16:31.320 --> 00:16:36.799
<v Speaker 5>He is sharp, intensely probing, and detail oriented and focused.

348
00:16:36.799 --> 00:16:39.440
<v Speaker 3>President Biden has a photographic memory.

349
00:16:39.159 --> 00:16:40.480
<v Speaker 9>But he's totally focused.

350
00:16:40.600 --> 00:16:41.200
<v Speaker 1>He's very sharp.

351
00:16:41.200 --> 00:16:42.919
<v Speaker 9>They say he's sharpened meetings and so on.

352
00:16:43.039 --> 00:16:43.679
<v Speaker 3>Very lucid.

353
00:16:43.720 --> 00:16:45.399
<v Speaker 7>Will very well done for him.

354
00:16:45.519 --> 00:16:48.799
<v Speaker 2>He's older, that doesn't mean that he is unfit.

355
00:16:48.919 --> 00:16:52.639
<v Speaker 4>He can clear a dementia bar and that's probably a win.

356
00:16:52.960 --> 00:16:55.679
<v Speaker 8>More wild speculation from a bunch of people who.

357
00:16:55.480 --> 00:16:57.480
<v Speaker 2>Have probably never been in a room with Joe Biden

358
00:16:57.519 --> 00:16:59.879
<v Speaker 2>and certainly don't have medical degrees that I'm aware of.

359
00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:02.159
<v Speaker 4>But a huge part of the Mulla report talks about

360
00:17:02.360 --> 00:17:06.000
<v Speaker 4>Russian disinformation tactics, and one of the themes this election

361
00:17:06.160 --> 00:17:08.599
<v Speaker 4>cycle is that Joe Biden is too old to lead,

362
00:17:08.680 --> 00:17:11.279
<v Speaker 4>and so everyone is seizing upon this and it is

363
00:17:11.319 --> 00:17:13.039
<v Speaker 4>a classic disinformation tactic.

364
00:17:14.039 --> 00:17:15.880
<v Speaker 2>All right, Well that was number one. It circles back

365
00:17:15.880 --> 00:17:17.799
<v Speaker 2>to number ten that we listened to, and he started

366
00:17:17.799 --> 00:17:20.880
<v Speaker 2>this whole saga of the media clips the terrible odds

367
00:17:20.920 --> 00:17:23.680
<v Speaker 2>of twenty twenty four. But they made a huge effort,

368
00:17:23.680 --> 00:17:26.000
<v Speaker 2>the mainstream media and Democrats, to push the idea that

369
00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:28.440
<v Speaker 2>there was absolutely no cognitive decline. He was sharp, he

370
00:17:28.519 --> 00:17:30.680
<v Speaker 2>was focused, and again, like we talked about with Tim

371
00:17:30.680 --> 00:17:32.240
<v Speaker 2>Walls and Jade Vance, all you had to do is

372
00:17:32.279 --> 00:17:35.680
<v Speaker 2>watch the debates for yourself, watch the press conferences for yourself,

373
00:17:35.920 --> 00:17:38.039
<v Speaker 2>and no matter what the media told you how sharp

374
00:17:38.079 --> 00:17:40.599
<v Speaker 2>he was, you could see that that was a man

375
00:17:40.759 --> 00:17:43.319
<v Speaker 2>in mental decline. And of course I feel bad for

376
00:17:43.359 --> 00:17:45.880
<v Speaker 2>someone like that. He's spent his life at least attempting

377
00:17:45.880 --> 00:17:48.880
<v Speaker 2>to serve the country. But there is a time when

378
00:17:48.920 --> 00:17:50.960
<v Speaker 2>you need to pack up the bags and go and

379
00:17:51.000 --> 00:17:53.279
<v Speaker 2>not lie to the American people and say that he's

380
00:17:53.359 --> 00:17:55.680
<v Speaker 2>just as sharp and focused as ever when people saw

381
00:17:55.720 --> 00:17:58.039
<v Speaker 2>that wasn't true. So I think after all these ten clips,

382
00:17:58.160 --> 00:18:00.759
<v Speaker 2>what we really see is that Americans came to the

383
00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:02.880
<v Speaker 2>conclusion at the end of twenty twenty four that they

384
00:18:02.880 --> 00:18:05.000
<v Speaker 2>weren't going to buy what the media was selling anymore,

385
00:18:05.000 --> 00:18:06.960
<v Speaker 2>that they were going to think for themselves. And that

386
00:18:07.079 --> 00:18:09.119
<v Speaker 2>is a great conclusion that we can take into next year.

387
00:18:09.400 --> 00:18:11.440
<v Speaker 2>I'm Christy Burton Brown. You're on the Dan Kapla Show.

388
00:18:11.440 --> 00:18:13.160
<v Speaker 2>When we come back, we're going to talk about Trump's

389
00:18:13.160 --> 00:18:16.160
<v Speaker 2>first few hours in office coming in less than a month,

390
00:18:16.240 --> 00:18:18.200
<v Speaker 2>and you can call in eight five five four zero

391
00:18:18.279 --> 00:18:21.079
<v Speaker 2>five eight two five five or text your ideas that

392
00:18:21.119 --> 00:18:23.880
<v Speaker 2>President Trump should take to five seven seven three nine

393
00:18:23.920 --> 00:18:31.759
<v Speaker 2>and start it with Dan. You're back on the Dan

394
00:18:31.839 --> 00:18:34.799
<v Speaker 2>Kapla Show. I'm Christy Burton Brown. Thanks for joining us tonight.

395
00:18:35.319 --> 00:18:37.599
<v Speaker 2>You can call in a five five four zero five

396
00:18:37.680 --> 00:18:40.200
<v Speaker 2>eight two five five or text your thoughts to Dan

397
00:18:40.359 --> 00:18:43.640
<v Speaker 2>at five seven seven three nine. All Right, I'm gonna

398
00:18:43.680 --> 00:18:47.160
<v Speaker 2>get to Trump's first few days in office. Kind of

399
00:18:47.240 --> 00:18:50.279
<v Speaker 2>nice to end out the year, close out the year

400
00:18:50.319 --> 00:18:53.519
<v Speaker 2>anyway with seeing what we have looked forward to and

401
00:18:53.680 --> 00:18:56.240
<v Speaker 2>zag that we're actually going to change things in America again.

402
00:18:56.440 --> 00:18:59.039
<v Speaker 2>After the election, sometimes it feels like a really long

403
00:18:59.039 --> 00:19:00.799
<v Speaker 2>time before the next press and it is sworn in,

404
00:19:00.799 --> 00:19:03.400
<v Speaker 2>at least in my opinion, and this time has seemed

405
00:19:03.400 --> 00:19:06.480
<v Speaker 2>particularly long to me. But we know that on January twentieth,

406
00:19:06.559 --> 00:19:08.759
<v Speaker 2>things will turn over. We'll have a big change. I

407
00:19:08.759 --> 00:19:11.480
<v Speaker 2>think at the international level, I think Marco Rubio as

408
00:19:11.519 --> 00:19:13.680
<v Speaker 2>the choice of Secretary of State is going to be

409
00:19:13.720 --> 00:19:17.759
<v Speaker 2>really great for our standing on the international stage. Combined

410
00:19:17.799 --> 00:19:23.079
<v Speaker 2>that with Trump's very strong presence and his ability to

411
00:19:23.079 --> 00:19:26.079
<v Speaker 2>negotiate and make demands of other nations that Joe Biden

412
00:19:26.119 --> 00:19:28.799
<v Speaker 2>and Kamal Harris were just in no position to do whatsoever.

413
00:19:29.160 --> 00:19:30.759
<v Speaker 2>And I think we have a lot to look forward

414
00:19:30.799 --> 00:19:33.279
<v Speaker 2>to over the next four years. But breaking it down

415
00:19:33.279 --> 00:19:35.440
<v Speaker 2>a little smaller than that, I was looking at a

416
00:19:35.759 --> 00:19:39.480
<v Speaker 2>NPR article that talked about specifically what Trump says he'll

417
00:19:39.519 --> 00:19:41.279
<v Speaker 2>do in the first one hundred days. And I'm sure

418
00:19:41.279 --> 00:19:44.799
<v Speaker 2>you're familiar that most presidents make certain agendas for the

419
00:19:44.839 --> 00:19:47.640
<v Speaker 2>first one hundred days. What I think Trump has done

420
00:19:47.640 --> 00:19:49.480
<v Speaker 2>a little bit uniquely this time. Is even said what

421
00:19:49.599 --> 00:19:51.839
<v Speaker 2>he's going to do in the first few hours. Now

422
00:19:51.880 --> 00:19:54.559
<v Speaker 2>we'll see how possible this actually is. I like the

423
00:19:54.599 --> 00:19:56.839
<v Speaker 2>concept of saying that he's going to get this done

424
00:19:56.880 --> 00:19:59.839
<v Speaker 2>in the first few hours. Obviously somethings take a little longer.

425
00:19:59.839 --> 00:20:02.279
<v Speaker 2>But if he's that laser focused on it, I think

426
00:20:02.319 --> 00:20:05.240
<v Speaker 2>it has a much greater chance of actually getting done. So,

427
00:20:06.160 --> 00:20:08.160
<v Speaker 2>according to this article which they're taking it from, the

428
00:20:08.200 --> 00:20:12.400
<v Speaker 2>Trump team's words themselves and Donald Trump himself on day one,

429
00:20:12.440 --> 00:20:14.480
<v Speaker 2>and he specifically says within a few hours he is

430
00:20:14.519 --> 00:20:17.759
<v Speaker 2>going to close the border with Mexico and launch the

431
00:20:17.880 --> 00:20:23.160
<v Speaker 2>largest deportation operation in American history. Now, he's certainly talked

432
00:20:23.200 --> 00:20:25.319
<v Speaker 2>about this over and over and over. He's picked I

433
00:20:25.319 --> 00:20:28.200
<v Speaker 2>think Tom Homan is the name of his Borders Are.

434
00:20:28.359 --> 00:20:30.359
<v Speaker 2>It's definitely going to be far more effective than Kamala

435
00:20:30.400 --> 00:20:34.039
<v Speaker 2>Harris as a borders are. I think that's guaranteed. But

436
00:20:34.480 --> 00:20:36.279
<v Speaker 2>you know, there's a lot of moving pieces when you

437
00:20:36.319 --> 00:20:39.720
<v Speaker 2>talk about closing the border and having a deportation operation,

438
00:20:40.160 --> 00:20:42.680
<v Speaker 2>A whole lot of moving piece is fifty different states,

439
00:20:42.720 --> 00:20:45.640
<v Speaker 2>some of course far more affected by illegal immigration than others.

440
00:20:46.200 --> 00:20:48.839
<v Speaker 2>But you have states of Colorado which claim to be

441
00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:51.920
<v Speaker 2>sanctuary states. I mean Mike john said, the mayor of Denver, claiming,

442
00:20:51.960 --> 00:20:53.680
<v Speaker 2>you know, he's gonna have people out there standing to

443
00:20:53.720 --> 00:20:56.240
<v Speaker 2>block the federal operation. I think he's walked that back

444
00:20:56.279 --> 00:20:59.599
<v Speaker 2>a little bit seeing the blowback that he got. You

445
00:20:59.640 --> 00:21:01.920
<v Speaker 2>actually do want some level have to cooperate with federal

446
00:21:01.960 --> 00:21:06.640
<v Speaker 2>agents and them enforcing actual federal law on immigration. But

447
00:21:07.400 --> 00:21:09.160
<v Speaker 2>I think this is great to have a president whose

448
00:21:09.240 --> 00:21:11.880
<v Speaker 2>laser focused on closing the border. That I think is

449
00:21:11.920 --> 00:21:14.920
<v Speaker 2>one of the biggest pieces, because you know, you can

450
00:21:14.960 --> 00:21:17.160
<v Speaker 2>there are some people who should be deported, specifically starting

451
00:21:17.160 --> 00:21:20.279
<v Speaker 2>with drug dealers, criminals, people like that who should not

452
00:21:20.400 --> 00:21:23.559
<v Speaker 2>be here. But we really need to do is stop

453
00:21:23.599 --> 00:21:26.440
<v Speaker 2>the problem from continuing. So I haven't seen a plan

454
00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:28.480
<v Speaker 2>from Trump as far as exactly how he's going to

455
00:21:28.519 --> 00:21:31.559
<v Speaker 2>close the border within a few hours. I think he's

456
00:21:31.640 --> 00:21:33.880
<v Speaker 2>more communicating the idea that he's going to be that

457
00:21:33.960 --> 00:21:35.720
<v Speaker 2>focused on it. It's certainly not something that's going to

458
00:21:35.720 --> 00:21:38.720
<v Speaker 2>be accomplished within his first few hours, but the focus

459
00:21:38.759 --> 00:21:40.839
<v Speaker 2>is good. The other thing the article says that he's

460
00:21:40.839 --> 00:21:42.440
<v Speaker 2>going to do in the first one hundred days is

461
00:21:42.519 --> 00:21:48.440
<v Speaker 2>gut climate subsidies and resume energy exploration, specifically talking about

462
00:21:48.440 --> 00:21:52.160
<v Speaker 2>giving tax breaks to oil, gas, and coal producers. He

463
00:21:52.200 --> 00:21:54.559
<v Speaker 2>said we would return to the drill baby drill era

464
00:21:55.119 --> 00:21:59.079
<v Speaker 2>and quote cut energy prices in half within one year.

465
00:22:00.160 --> 00:22:03.640
<v Speaker 2>Good goal to have focus on closing our border, getting

466
00:22:03.640 --> 00:22:06.759
<v Speaker 2>criminals and drug dealers out of our nation, and then

467
00:22:06.839 --> 00:22:09.960
<v Speaker 2>on the flip side, making life more affordable by actually

468
00:22:10.799 --> 00:22:15.240
<v Speaker 2>encouraging American energy production. I mean, even Barack Obama saw

469
00:22:15.279 --> 00:22:20.240
<v Speaker 2>the benefits of encouraging American energy production and drilling. A

470
00:22:20.240 --> 00:22:23.039
<v Speaker 2>lot of that actually increased under Barack Obama because new

471
00:22:23.039 --> 00:22:26.279
<v Speaker 2>technologies were developed, and it increased America's standing on the

472
00:22:26.279 --> 00:22:29.200
<v Speaker 2>international stage. We weren't so relying on other countries for

473
00:22:29.319 --> 00:22:32.000
<v Speaker 2>oil production. We need to get back to even more

474
00:22:32.039 --> 00:22:34.759
<v Speaker 2>of that, and I think expand it, like we talked

475
00:22:34.759 --> 00:22:37.759
<v Speaker 2>a little bit earlier in the show, into American independence

476
00:22:37.799 --> 00:22:40.279
<v Speaker 2>when it comes to rare earth minerals and mining and

477
00:22:40.279 --> 00:22:44.160
<v Speaker 2>producing those, creating our own chips for electric cars and phones,

478
00:22:44.799 --> 00:22:47.880
<v Speaker 2>and also pharmaceuticals. I think that needs to be a

479
00:22:47.960 --> 00:22:51.400
<v Speaker 2>huge focus. Is producing our own antibiotics, our own medicines.

480
00:22:51.759 --> 00:22:54.559
<v Speaker 2>Here in the United States, we often talk about energy

481
00:22:54.559 --> 00:22:57.720
<v Speaker 2>production We often talk about manufacturing, but we really, really

482
00:22:57.720 --> 00:23:01.160
<v Speaker 2>really need to talk about producing our own medicine here

483
00:23:01.200 --> 00:23:03.599
<v Speaker 2>in the United States, in my opinion, so I hope

484
00:23:03.599 --> 00:23:07.240
<v Speaker 2>that's something that President Trump also focuses on with America.

485
00:23:07.279 --> 00:23:11.240
<v Speaker 2>First produce it here in our own country mindset. If

486
00:23:11.240 --> 00:23:13.039
<v Speaker 2>you have thoughts about the things he should focus on

487
00:23:13.359 --> 00:23:15.960
<v Speaker 2>in the first few hours or first one hundred days,

488
00:23:16.160 --> 00:23:18.119
<v Speaker 2>you should text them to five seven seven three nine,

489
00:23:18.160 --> 00:23:20.400
<v Speaker 2>start it with Dan or call in we can discuss

490
00:23:20.440 --> 00:23:24.680
<v Speaker 2>it eight five five four zero five eight two five five. Now,

491
00:23:24.880 --> 00:23:27.599
<v Speaker 2>one thing that President Trump's allies are saying that he

492
00:23:27.680 --> 00:23:30.240
<v Speaker 2>should do in the first one hundred days and sooner

493
00:23:30.359 --> 00:23:35.039
<v Speaker 2>rather than later, is to reimpose the Schedule F executive order.

494
00:23:35.039 --> 00:23:36.359
<v Speaker 2>And if you're like me, you're like, what is a

495
00:23:36.400 --> 00:23:39.559
<v Speaker 2>Schedule F executive order? But it actually relates to his

496
00:23:39.640 --> 00:23:43.440
<v Speaker 2>ability to getting things done. What a Schedule F executive

497
00:23:43.519 --> 00:23:48.440
<v Speaker 2>order would do is reclassify huge portions of federal staff

498
00:23:48.519 --> 00:23:54.119
<v Speaker 2>federal employees as at will employees. That's a very important

499
00:23:54.279 --> 00:23:58.240
<v Speaker 2>distinction classification, so that honestly, you can get rid of

500
00:23:58.240 --> 00:24:00.920
<v Speaker 2>a lot of them and replace them with his own people.

501
00:24:01.400 --> 00:24:04.240
<v Speaker 2>I'd say this was the biggest barrier in Trump's first

502
00:24:04.319 --> 00:24:07.400
<v Speaker 2>term for actually accomplishing things. He accomplished a lot, but

503
00:24:07.880 --> 00:24:10.119
<v Speaker 2>he could have accomplished a lot more if he had

504
00:24:10.640 --> 00:24:13.200
<v Speaker 2>been used to the system and how swampy it is

505
00:24:13.279 --> 00:24:16.920
<v Speaker 2>and how bad it is, and knowing that people who

506
00:24:16.920 --> 00:24:20.319
<v Speaker 2>have been in place in federal agencies for decades and

507
00:24:20.319 --> 00:24:24.359
<v Speaker 2>who don't change when the presidents change over, they can

508
00:24:24.400 --> 00:24:26.400
<v Speaker 2>do a whole lot that the president isn't aware of.

509
00:24:26.480 --> 00:24:28.640
<v Speaker 2>They can block a lot of things the president wants

510
00:24:28.720 --> 00:24:31.799
<v Speaker 2>to happen. There's only so much power you have by

511
00:24:31.799 --> 00:24:35.240
<v Speaker 2>yourself as president and your key high up staff. You

512
00:24:35.400 --> 00:24:37.880
<v Speaker 2>need to be able to put people in place in

513
00:24:37.960 --> 00:24:40.799
<v Speaker 2>all these different agencies, all these departments, and get rid

514
00:24:40.839 --> 00:24:44.319
<v Speaker 2>of people who are lifelong bureaucrats, who aren't willing to

515
00:24:44.359 --> 00:24:47.720
<v Speaker 2>institute changes, who aren't willing to close down departments to

516
00:24:47.799 --> 00:24:50.920
<v Speaker 2>cut regulations. And there's a whole lot that needs to

517
00:24:50.960 --> 00:24:52.960
<v Speaker 2>be changed at the federal level. When it comes to

518
00:24:53.000 --> 00:24:56.799
<v Speaker 2>the Chevron doctrine that was in place for decades. I

519
00:24:56.839 --> 00:24:59.839
<v Speaker 2>was actually able to write an amacust brief Friend of

520
00:24:59.839 --> 00:25:02.960
<v Speaker 2>the Court brief in the overturn of the Chevron doctrine

521
00:25:03.000 --> 00:25:05.279
<v Speaker 2>for Advanced Colorado who I worked for we submitted an

522
00:25:05.279 --> 00:25:08.400
<v Speaker 2>amicus brief, and thankfully the Supreme Court last year or

523
00:25:08.400 --> 00:25:11.160
<v Speaker 2>actually this year it's still twenty twenty four, overturned the

524
00:25:11.240 --> 00:25:15.160
<v Speaker 2>Chevron doctrine, which basically said agencies don't get to make laws,

525
00:25:15.599 --> 00:25:17.440
<v Speaker 2>and they were allowed to do that for so long.

526
00:25:17.559 --> 00:25:20.880
<v Speaker 2>Congress could give them all this authority just with a

527
00:25:20.880 --> 00:25:24.279
<v Speaker 2>little stroke of the pen, not giving them any specifications,

528
00:25:24.559 --> 00:25:28.119
<v Speaker 2>and so unelected bureaucrats were creating all these regulations that

529
00:25:28.200 --> 00:25:30.880
<v Speaker 2>chiefly hurt businesses. It was kind of like a yo

530
00:25:30.960 --> 00:25:33.599
<v Speaker 2>yo going back and forth with different administrations. The regulations

531
00:25:33.640 --> 00:25:36.759
<v Speaker 2>would be imposed, pulled back, imposed, pulled back, just depending

532
00:25:36.799 --> 00:25:39.559
<v Speaker 2>on which president was in charge and which bureaucrats were

533
00:25:39.599 --> 00:25:42.640
<v Speaker 2>overseeing the process. And so a lot of agency created

534
00:25:42.720 --> 00:25:45.519
<v Speaker 2>laws and regulations that really devastated a lot of family

535
00:25:45.599 --> 00:25:50.039
<v Speaker 2>owned businesses, small and big corporations across the United States. Well,

536
00:25:50.079 --> 00:25:53.720
<v Speaker 2>the Chevron doctrine is gone now, but we need President

537
00:25:53.759 --> 00:25:57.640
<v Speaker 2>Trump to actually peel back those regulations and put the

538
00:25:57.759 --> 00:26:00.519
<v Speaker 2>right people and not only in the cabinet pause positions,

539
00:26:00.799 --> 00:26:03.640
<v Speaker 2>but in the deputy positions and in the management positions

540
00:26:03.640 --> 00:26:09.240
<v Speaker 2>in these federal agencies and departments to roll back those regulations. Otherwise,

541
00:26:09.279 --> 00:26:11.119
<v Speaker 2>what's going to happen is it's going to take court

542
00:26:11.160 --> 00:26:14.480
<v Speaker 2>case after court case after court case with companies and

543
00:26:14.519 --> 00:26:18.559
<v Speaker 2>individuals suing to peel back the regulations. That can work,

544
00:26:18.680 --> 00:26:21.359
<v Speaker 2>but it's also going to take decades. And so what

545
00:26:21.400 --> 00:26:24.559
<v Speaker 2>you really need is you need people in management positions

546
00:26:24.599 --> 00:26:27.400
<v Speaker 2>in these agencies who are going to peel back themselves

547
00:26:27.759 --> 00:26:30.519
<v Speaker 2>without being forced by a court to do it. I

548
00:26:30.519 --> 00:26:32.519
<v Speaker 2>think that's one of the best ways we return freedom

549
00:26:32.599 --> 00:26:36.279
<v Speaker 2>and the free market to companies and people and communities

550
00:26:36.279 --> 00:26:39.440
<v Speaker 2>across the United States is proactively get rid of these

551
00:26:39.480 --> 00:26:43.720
<v Speaker 2>regulations that are crushing free markets and crippling businesses. So

552
00:26:43.759 --> 00:26:45.960
<v Speaker 2>that'd be something that I think he should do. So

553
00:26:46.000 --> 00:26:48.319
<v Speaker 2>I agree with the people who say he should reinstitute

554
00:26:48.519 --> 00:26:52.000
<v Speaker 2>this Schedule F executive order to classify federal employees at

555
00:26:52.079 --> 00:26:54.480
<v Speaker 2>least a whole chunk of them as at will employees,

556
00:26:54.480 --> 00:26:56.720
<v Speaker 2>because then it makes it far more possible for him

557
00:26:56.720 --> 00:26:59.359
<v Speaker 2>to put the right people in these positions to peel

558
00:26:59.440 --> 00:27:03.640
<v Speaker 2>back the the insane level of regulations that Congress allowed

559
00:27:04.119 --> 00:27:08.720
<v Speaker 2>the executive agencies and federal employees to impose on people. Now,

560
00:27:08.839 --> 00:27:10.400
<v Speaker 2>the next thing I'll talk about, we're about to have

561
00:27:10.440 --> 00:27:11.759
<v Speaker 2>to take a break, but I do want to talk

562
00:27:11.759 --> 00:27:13.720
<v Speaker 2>about what the ACLU has done about all of this.

563
00:27:14.200 --> 00:27:17.400
<v Speaker 2>They've looked at some of President Trump's goals for his

564
00:27:17.480 --> 00:27:19.559
<v Speaker 2>first few hours and first hundred days in office, and

565
00:27:19.599 --> 00:27:21.920
<v Speaker 2>they have written their own fifteen or fourteen or fifteen

566
00:27:21.960 --> 00:27:24.599
<v Speaker 2>page memo outlining how they're going to sue him, and

567
00:27:24.640 --> 00:27:27.319
<v Speaker 2>how he's wrong and how he can't do all these things. So,

568
00:27:27.640 --> 00:27:32.079
<v Speaker 2>you know, I always find the ACLU to be fairly

569
00:27:32.559 --> 00:27:37.319
<v Speaker 2>interesting in their oh, in their takes as a constitutional

570
00:27:37.359 --> 00:27:41.039
<v Speaker 2>attorney myself, they are also constitutional attorneys, but they have

571
00:27:41.279 --> 00:27:43.160
<v Speaker 2>a very different I sometimes I think they're looking at

572
00:27:43.160 --> 00:27:47.160
<v Speaker 2>a very different document if you evaluate what the ACLU did,

573
00:27:47.440 --> 00:27:49.400
<v Speaker 2>I'll say the one thing I've done where I did

574
00:27:49.440 --> 00:27:52.240
<v Speaker 2>agree with ACLU was on the free speech on campus

575
00:27:52.240 --> 00:27:54.160
<v Speaker 2>the bill in Colorado that was past I think back

576
00:27:54.200 --> 00:27:56.920
<v Speaker 2>in twenty seventeen. I help them negotiate that bill for

577
00:27:57.000 --> 00:27:59.720
<v Speaker 2>Senator Tim Neville, and the ACLU was actually actually grewed

578
00:27:59.720 --> 00:28:01.759
<v Speaker 2>with thought that there should be free speech on campus

579
00:28:02.200 --> 00:28:05.599
<v Speaker 2>in Colorado's university. So occasionally they happen to be on

580
00:28:05.640 --> 00:28:08.119
<v Speaker 2>the right side. But this memo that they have I'm

581
00:28:08.119 --> 00:28:11.039
<v Speaker 2>looking at it now and it is fourteen pages long.

582
00:28:11.480 --> 00:28:14.720
<v Speaker 2>They of course accused Trump of surveillance, that he's going

583
00:28:14.759 --> 00:28:17.240
<v Speaker 2>to crack down on protests and free speech through an

584
00:28:17.279 --> 00:28:20.880
<v Speaker 2>abuse of executive power. But then they outline what the

585
00:28:21.039 --> 00:28:24.640
<v Speaker 2>overall response should be and specifically say that the ACLU

586
00:28:24.720 --> 00:28:29.319
<v Speaker 2>will resist a second Trump administration efforts to abuse executive

587
00:28:29.319 --> 00:28:33.400
<v Speaker 2>power with litigation and legislative and policy advocacy at both

588
00:28:33.400 --> 00:28:35.720
<v Speaker 2>the states and federal levels. I mean, I don't know

589
00:28:35.720 --> 00:28:37.079
<v Speaker 2>about you, but that's not shocking to me at all.

590
00:28:37.079 --> 00:28:39.319
<v Speaker 2>It's what they're always doing. Throughout their entire history. The

591
00:28:39.400 --> 00:28:42.519
<v Speaker 2>ACLU has taken things to court and sued anyone they

592
00:28:42.599 --> 00:28:46.920
<v Speaker 2>disagree with for their own interpretation of the Constitution. They

593
00:28:47.000 --> 00:28:49.319
<v Speaker 2>love to do threat letters. I don't think it's gonna

594
00:28:49.319 --> 00:28:51.640
<v Speaker 2>be very effective on President Trump. But what they love

595
00:28:51.720 --> 00:28:54.599
<v Speaker 2>to do is go after small city councils, school boards,

596
00:28:54.640 --> 00:28:57.640
<v Speaker 2>issue threat letters basically tell them they can't pray and

597
00:28:57.720 --> 00:29:02.240
<v Speaker 2>do all these other things that often scare unelected but

598
00:29:02.359 --> 00:29:05.960
<v Speaker 2>volunteer government officials from doing whatever the ACLU says because

599
00:29:05.960 --> 00:29:07.519
<v Speaker 2>they have a big, fancy name. But that's not going

600
00:29:07.599 --> 00:29:10.319
<v Speaker 2>to work with President Trump, and thankfully, he's going to

601
00:29:10.440 --> 00:29:13.279
<v Speaker 2>continue to get a lot of opportunities to appoint more

602
00:29:13.359 --> 00:29:17.039
<v Speaker 2>federal judges, which I think will impose the real view

603
00:29:17.079 --> 00:29:21.119
<v Speaker 2>of the American Constitution in the judiciary and stunt the

604
00:29:21.160 --> 00:29:23.680
<v Speaker 2>ability of the ACL you to really affect every change

605
00:29:23.720 --> 00:29:25.640
<v Speaker 2>they want to make. But I'll tell you about a

606
00:29:25.640 --> 00:29:28.119
<v Speaker 2>couple more of their specific threats that they're throwing back

607
00:29:28.119 --> 00:29:30.519
<v Speaker 2>at President Trump. When we get back from this break,

608
00:29:30.519 --> 00:29:32.200
<v Speaker 2>you can call in if you want. Eight five five

609
00:29:32.200 --> 00:29:34.839
<v Speaker 2>four zero five eight two five five. I'm Christy Burton Brown.

610
00:29:34.920 --> 00:29:36.720
<v Speaker 2>You're on the Dan Kaplish. You're back on the Dan

611
00:29:36.759 --> 00:29:39.759
<v Speaker 2>Kaplish Show for our last segment tonight. I'm Christy Burton Brown,

612
00:29:39.839 --> 00:29:42.599
<v Speaker 2>and for Dan, thanks for giving us some time and

613
00:29:42.720 --> 00:29:45.640
<v Speaker 2>joining us today. I hope you will have a great

614
00:29:45.759 --> 00:29:47.720
<v Speaker 2>end to your year. I know that I'm gonna have

615
00:29:47.720 --> 00:29:49.519
<v Speaker 2>a good end to mine. On New Year's Eve, I'm

616
00:29:49.519 --> 00:29:51.559
<v Speaker 2>gonna get to see the Coloridle Avalanche play. I haven't

617
00:29:51.599 --> 00:29:53.640
<v Speaker 2>been to one of their games in years, actually, so

618
00:29:53.720 --> 00:29:56.680
<v Speaker 2>I am super excited. My husband got some tickets and

619
00:29:56.720 --> 00:29:59.599
<v Speaker 2>invited me, so I'll take that. It'll be a great

620
00:29:59.759 --> 00:30:02.920
<v Speaker 2>and and if they win, I don't know, I actually

621
00:30:02.920 --> 00:30:04.599
<v Speaker 2>have not This is terrible to admit, but I haven't

622
00:30:04.599 --> 00:30:07.240
<v Speaker 2>followed how well they're doing this year. The last time

623
00:30:07.279 --> 00:30:09.480
<v Speaker 2>I really paid attention was when they won the Stanley Cup.

624
00:30:10.119 --> 00:30:13.079
<v Speaker 2>Because my family actually drove into Colorado when I was

625
00:30:13.119 --> 00:30:16.640
<v Speaker 2>a kid in nineteen ninety six. We moved to Highland's

626
00:30:16.680 --> 00:30:19.240
<v Speaker 2>Ranch on the night the Avalanche won the Stanley Cup.

627
00:30:19.279 --> 00:30:21.480
<v Speaker 2>That was like the night we drove into Denver. So

628
00:30:22.640 --> 00:30:25.640
<v Speaker 2>I definitely love seeing them win the Stanley Cup, but

629
00:30:25.960 --> 00:30:28.160
<v Speaker 2>I've not heard they're in the running for that this year.

630
00:30:28.240 --> 00:30:30.839
<v Speaker 2>Maybe some you know listener who's more up on the

631
00:30:30.839 --> 00:30:32.680
<v Speaker 2>Avalanche than I am could let me know. I'm sort

632
00:30:32.680 --> 00:30:35.160
<v Speaker 2>of like a fairweather sports fan, like I like them

633
00:30:35.160 --> 00:30:36.839
<v Speaker 2>when they're good. When they're not, I don't pay a

634
00:30:36.839 --> 00:30:40.000
<v Speaker 2>lot of attention. All that said, I'm very excited that

635
00:30:40.039 --> 00:30:41.640
<v Speaker 2>I get to end my year that way, So I

636
00:30:41.640 --> 00:30:44.400
<v Speaker 2>hope you have something fun to end your year with.

637
00:30:46.119 --> 00:30:48.359
<v Speaker 2>Regardless of that, we have good things to look forward to.

638
00:30:48.400 --> 00:30:51.759
<v Speaker 2>With Trump taking office in a little over three weeks,

639
00:30:52.240 --> 00:30:54.839
<v Speaker 2>we were talking about some of his goals, and I'm

640
00:30:54.920 --> 00:30:57.079
<v Speaker 2>very thankful that one of his top goals is, according

641
00:30:57.079 --> 00:30:59.359
<v Speaker 2>to him, in the first few hours, he's going to

642
00:30:59.400 --> 00:31:03.920
<v Speaker 2>try to the border and begin his deportation operation. Personally

643
00:31:03.920 --> 00:31:07.319
<v Speaker 2>for me, I hope he is focused on deporting the criminals,

644
00:31:07.359 --> 00:31:10.160
<v Speaker 2>the drug dealers who've infiltrated our country. Those are the

645
00:31:10.160 --> 00:31:11.960
<v Speaker 2>people who need to go back where they came from,

646
00:31:12.160 --> 00:31:14.119
<v Speaker 2>and it's my understanding that is what he's focused on,

647
00:31:14.519 --> 00:31:18.759
<v Speaker 2>so I hope that stays the goal. We certainly are

648
00:31:18.799 --> 00:31:21.559
<v Speaker 2>still a country of immigrants. I think that's important to

649
00:31:21.680 --> 00:31:23.359
<v Speaker 2>point out and to remember when there's a lot of

650
00:31:23.359 --> 00:31:26.720
<v Speaker 2>talk about illegal immigration, is that immigration itself is still

651
00:31:26.720 --> 00:31:29.640
<v Speaker 2>a valuable thing. In the United States of America. Pretty

652
00:31:29.680 --> 00:31:33.680
<v Speaker 2>much all of us here had ancestors that immigrated from somewhere.

653
00:31:33.920 --> 00:31:37.240
<v Speaker 2>America is indeed the melting pot of the nations, and

654
00:31:38.160 --> 00:31:40.519
<v Speaker 2>that's part of what makes our country amazing is we

655
00:31:40.559 --> 00:31:42.960
<v Speaker 2>pull in different talent, different people from across the world

656
00:31:42.960 --> 00:31:44.799
<v Speaker 2>who all want to come here and build an American dream.

657
00:31:45.079 --> 00:31:47.039
<v Speaker 2>But it should be done legally. And one of the

658
00:31:47.039 --> 00:31:50.079
<v Speaker 2>biggest reasons I believe that is if you study at

659
00:31:50.079 --> 00:31:52.720
<v Speaker 2>all or spend time with people who have been in

660
00:31:52.799 --> 00:31:56.279
<v Speaker 2>refugee camps around the world, there are so many people

661
00:31:56.319 --> 00:31:58.559
<v Speaker 2>from refugee camps who should be getting asylum in the

662
00:31:58.640 --> 00:32:01.440
<v Speaker 2>United States, who actually deserve to be here because they

663
00:32:01.440 --> 00:32:05.559
<v Speaker 2>are fleeing war torn nations, terrible areas across the world,

664
00:32:06.160 --> 00:32:08.720
<v Speaker 2>and yet it takes years and years and years for

665
00:32:08.839 --> 00:32:11.559
<v Speaker 2>them to get here legally, while people who have better

666
00:32:11.599 --> 00:32:14.920
<v Speaker 2>access to our borders just pour across the border and

667
00:32:14.960 --> 00:32:17.000
<v Speaker 2>in many cases don't at all have as much of

668
00:32:17.000 --> 00:32:19.359
<v Speaker 2>a need as people do in these refugee camps. So

669
00:32:19.400 --> 00:32:21.319
<v Speaker 2>that's one of the pieces of the system I'd love

670
00:32:21.359 --> 00:32:25.200
<v Speaker 2>to see reformed, is getting more actual refugees, people who

671
00:32:25.240 --> 00:32:29.079
<v Speaker 2>deserve asylum in the United States, getting them here even

672
00:32:29.119 --> 00:32:31.160
<v Speaker 2>though they're not just sitting on our border. I think

673
00:32:31.160 --> 00:32:33.079
<v Speaker 2>that's one of the biggest errors we've made, is letting

674
00:32:33.119 --> 00:32:36.359
<v Speaker 2>people with close proximity to the United States pour across

675
00:32:36.359 --> 00:32:38.680
<v Speaker 2>our border. And I understand that they want to experience

676
00:32:38.680 --> 00:32:41.640
<v Speaker 2>the American dream, but so do people who aren't close

677
00:32:41.680 --> 00:32:44.119
<v Speaker 2>in proximity to the United States, and so we need

678
00:32:44.160 --> 00:32:45.920
<v Speaker 2>to find a way, and I think the Trump administration

679
00:32:46.039 --> 00:32:49.400
<v Speaker 2>will find a way to stop so much easy access

680
00:32:49.440 --> 00:32:52.359
<v Speaker 2>pouring over our borders because you're close, and then denying

681
00:32:52.480 --> 00:32:56.000
<v Speaker 2>access to people who are true refugees and true asylum seekers.

682
00:32:56.359 --> 00:32:58.160
<v Speaker 2>That's a big piece of the system I'd love to

683
00:32:58.200 --> 00:33:01.559
<v Speaker 2>see reformed. I think is just going to have to

684
00:33:01.559 --> 00:33:03.759
<v Speaker 2>be contended with when Trump takes office and the new

685
00:33:03.799 --> 00:33:06.279
<v Speaker 2>Congress is sworn in, And I for one, am very

686
00:33:06.279 --> 00:33:08.480
<v Speaker 2>happy that my friend Gabe Evans is going to be

687
00:33:08.519 --> 00:33:12.880
<v Speaker 2>sworn in for Colorado in Congressional District eight, splitting the

688
00:33:12.880 --> 00:33:16.559
<v Speaker 2>congressional delegation in Colorado four to four, four Republicans four Democrats.

689
00:33:17.119 --> 00:33:18.559
<v Speaker 2>I grew up with him. We met each other when

690
00:33:18.599 --> 00:33:20.440
<v Speaker 2>we were eleven and twelve years old. Our moms were

691
00:33:20.440 --> 00:33:22.599
<v Speaker 2>best friends. So it's super exciting for me to see

692
00:33:22.599 --> 00:33:25.279
<v Speaker 2>that he's going to be sworn in to the next Congress.

693
00:33:25.480 --> 00:33:28.039
<v Speaker 2>But they're gonna have to contend with the budget. And

694
00:33:28.640 --> 00:33:31.680
<v Speaker 2>I do not understand why Trump wants there to be

695
00:33:32.000 --> 00:33:34.880
<v Speaker 2>no ceiling on the debt. I think that's a very bad,

696
00:33:35.240 --> 00:33:38.079
<v Speaker 2>bad mistake, bad message from Republicans if that's how we

697
00:33:38.119 --> 00:33:40.799
<v Speaker 2>start out saying, well, we can increase the debt however

698
00:33:40.880 --> 00:33:43.720
<v Speaker 2>much we want to accomplish our priorities. That is one

699
00:33:43.720 --> 00:33:46.839
<v Speaker 2>thing the American people, and specifically conservatives, have insisted on

700
00:33:46.920 --> 00:33:48.440
<v Speaker 2>for a long time that we've got to fix our

701
00:33:48.480 --> 00:33:52.240
<v Speaker 2>debt and stop spending beyond our means. And so I

702
00:33:52.279 --> 00:33:54.599
<v Speaker 2>hope that gets worked out the right way. And that

703
00:33:54.599 --> 00:33:57.920
<v Speaker 2>we actually have a conservative view on economics, not just

704
00:33:58.000 --> 00:34:01.000
<v Speaker 2>the Trump view on economics, but the conservative view. We

705
00:34:01.039 --> 00:34:06.359
<v Speaker 2>need to return to that and stop spending so much

706
00:34:06.480 --> 00:34:09.679
<v Speaker 2>money that we don't actually have. That is something Trump

707
00:34:09.719 --> 00:34:12.039
<v Speaker 2>actually hasn't promised to solve that in the right way,

708
00:34:12.079 --> 00:34:14.039
<v Speaker 2>but I'd love to see him do that in his

709
00:34:14.119 --> 00:34:16.719
<v Speaker 2>first one hundred days. Reach a deal with the Republicans

710
00:34:16.719 --> 00:34:18.519
<v Speaker 2>and the Senate. In the House, we have to remember

711
00:34:18.559 --> 00:34:21.559
<v Speaker 2>that we control all three as of January twentieth, and

712
00:34:21.559 --> 00:34:24.079
<v Speaker 2>we need to take advantage of that and not squander

713
00:34:24.559 --> 00:34:27.480
<v Speaker 2>what we have with the abilities that gives us to

714
00:34:27.639 --> 00:34:30.559
<v Speaker 2>solve budgetary issues, like let's stop with all the continuing

715
00:34:30.599 --> 00:34:33.760
<v Speaker 2>resolutions and actually pass a real budget for the first

716
00:34:33.840 --> 00:34:37.559
<v Speaker 2>time in a very very long time, and stop stop

717
00:34:37.599 --> 00:34:40.119
<v Speaker 2>spending like crazy just because we're the ones in charge.

718
00:34:40.599 --> 00:34:42.840
<v Speaker 2>That's something if I could pick, I'd certainly say that

719
00:34:42.880 --> 00:34:46.719
<v Speaker 2>the Trump administration needs to get done. Obviously, he needs

720
00:34:46.719 --> 00:34:50.000
<v Speaker 2>to get all his nominees confirmed. I like RFK Junior,

721
00:34:50.000 --> 00:34:52.760
<v Speaker 2>which isn't necessarily the most popular opinion among Republicans, but

722
00:34:52.800 --> 00:34:55.679
<v Speaker 2>only because Trump's also picked a pro life person to

723
00:34:55.679 --> 00:34:59.079
<v Speaker 2>head the CDC and FDA, and that's essential in my opinion.

724
00:34:59.480 --> 00:35:02.000
<v Speaker 2>Christy Burton, you've been here on the Dan Kappelo Show.

725
00:35:02.039 --> 00:35:03.719
<v Speaker 2>Thanks so much for joining. I hope you have a

726
00:35:03.760 --> 00:35:06.039
<v Speaker 2>great end to your year and I'll be back a

727
00:35:06.079 --> 00:35:09.719
<v Speaker 2>little bit with you after the start of twenty twenty five.

728
00:35:10.000 --> 00:35:10.639
<v Speaker 2>Enjoy your night,
