Speaker 1: This is Dan Caples and welcome to today's online podcast edition
Speaker 1: of the Dan Capla Show. Please be sure to give
Speaker 1: us a five star rating if you'd be so kind,
Speaker 1: and to subscribe, download and listen to the show every
Speaker 1: single day on your favorite podcast platform. Oh, you know
Speaker 1: how I normally love to start this show, but hey,
Speaker 1: we have orders. We have orders coming down from the
Speaker 1: Biden administration via VP Harris that every show must now
Speaker 1: start this way. Do you recognize that, Heidi?
Speaker 2: I believe that has the smell of communism in it.
Speaker 1: The Venezuela national anthem right talk about choice, and it
Speaker 1: does start to gear up here a little bit. I've
Speaker 1: never heard it before, but we all know this. You
Speaker 1: don't want to be Venezuela and anything other than soccer, right,
Speaker 1: So yeah, Heidi and all with us today. We sure
Speaker 1: do appreciate that eight fy five for zero five A
Speaker 1: two five to five the number text DA and five
Speaker 1: seven seven three nine. Heidi, I think that dek Kamala
Speaker 1: Harris has now in a relatively short period of time,
Speaker 1: made two of the biggest political miscalculations of our lifetime,
Speaker 1: and the first obviously being the selection of Tampon Tim
Speaker 1: but the other, the other being this open move toward Marxism,
Speaker 1: this open move towards socialism that she's made very blatantly today.
Speaker 1: I think she signaled it in other ways, trying to
Speaker 1: keep it in channels, but today it was just in
Speaker 1: full throttle, wide open eight fy five for zero five
Speaker 1: A two five to five the number. How you doing it?
Speaker 2: I'm doing great.
Speaker 3: I'm really shocked at how blatant she's being about this
Speaker 3: move to Marxism, and I hope that Americans understand what's
Speaker 3: at stake in what she's actually describing as her policy.
Speaker 1: Great point, What a great way to start the show,
Speaker 1: because if I'd had time today, I would have tweeted
Speaker 1: this out. This is her fatal miscalculation, and it should
Speaker 1: be It should be fatal. It should be fatal to
Speaker 1: anybody who views the working people of America this way.
Speaker 1: Some call them blue collar people, but arrogant elitists like
Speaker 1: Kamala Harris and so many others on the left. Their
Speaker 1: downfall has been that they look at working people. And
Speaker 1: I can speak to this. Many people can, but as
Speaker 1: a son of a thirty year Chicago cop, I can
Speaker 1: speak to this. They view us, they view us as
Speaker 1: jealous dummies, and they think, okay, because they're working people,
Speaker 1: because they're blue collar. A. They're dummies because if they
Speaker 1: were smart, then they'd be a rich, arrogant elitist like me.
Speaker 1: And number two, they've got to be jealous because I'm jealous,
Speaker 1: I fill in the blank, arrogant elitists. I'm jealous all
Speaker 1: the time, So they must be jealous. That's how little
Speaker 1: they think of us. So they make this fatal miscalculation
Speaker 1: when it comes to working people in America, who A
Speaker 1: are very very very very often much smarter than the
Speaker 1: argont elitist and B are the furthest thing from jealous.
Speaker 1: We didn't grow up, okay, when we were living in
Speaker 1: an apartment on the South Side, when we were living
Speaker 1: in a wonderful, wonderful home at seventy six oh five
Speaker 1: South Aberdeen in the heart of the south Side, you
Speaker 1: know that a lot of people, you know, the left,
Speaker 1: would scoff at. We were never ever jealous of the
Speaker 1: rich people we caddied for or the rich people whose
Speaker 1: cars we parked. We were a grateful for the jobs,
Speaker 1: and B we just wanted a level playing field, a
Speaker 1: fair opportunity to compete and then we go kick their ass,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, And that's all we wanted.
Speaker 1: But she and the left think that we're all fighting
Speaker 1: for scraps, jealous little idiots who are going to say,
Speaker 1: oh yeah, Kamala, Okay, she's going to fix prices and
Speaker 1: everything else, and she's going to income redistribute, and yeah,
Speaker 1: that's what I want. Fatal miscalculation by.
Speaker 3: Her, I agree, And I believe that folks got a
Speaker 3: taste of this with the student loan debacle, and they
Speaker 3: got an education on that, Hey who's paying this if
Speaker 3: they're not if the kids that got the loans, the
Speaker 3: adults now, and it's just being wiped clean. That money
Speaker 3: didn't just poof in air. So hopefully they learned from
Speaker 3: that experience. And of course the inflation that's hitting all
Speaker 3: of us so hard. I think people are getting up
Speaker 3: to speed on what inflation is, what it does pretty quickly.
Speaker 3: So I don't think she's going to pull the wool
Speaker 3: over people's eyes on that front.
Speaker 1: No, And I think it's going to hurt her so badly. Heidi,
Speaker 1: And in part now, I want to play some sound
Speaker 1: right now from CNN. This was CNN Fresh Reaction today
Speaker 1: to Kamala Harris coming out and talking about price fixing. Right,
Speaker 1: talking about price fixed he puts other fancy terms on it,
Speaker 1: such as stopping price gouging. I think she says gauging
Speaker 1: price gouging, but she's talking about price fixing. And here's sound.
Speaker 1: This is off of CNN, and this is a wa
Speaker 1: Washington Post analyst on CNN soon after this announcement the
Speaker 1: federal ban on price gouging for groceries.
Speaker 2: You are skeptical of this?
Speaker 1: Why, well, first.
Speaker 4: Of all, nobody can explain what price gouging means. It's
Speaker 4: like that old line about pornography. I know it when
Speaker 4: I see it, in the sense that what does it
Speaker 4: mean to have an excessive price or an excessive profit
Speaker 4: margin that seems to be shorthand for a price or
Speaker 4: a profit margin that bugs.
Speaker 2: Me, that seems too high.
Speaker 4: So you know, it's very hard to pin down what
Speaker 4: this would actually mean.
Speaker 1: And here she drops the hammer. Heidi Washington Post analyst
Speaker 1: on CNN drops this hammer.
Speaker 4: We've seen this kind of thing tried in lots of
Speaker 4: other countries before Venezuela, Argentina, the Soviet Union, et cetera.
Speaker 4: It leads to shortages, It leads to black markets, you know,
Speaker 4: plenty of uncertainty. And beyond that, this Pacific way this
Speaker 4: bill is written might actually increase prices because of some
Speaker 4: of the other language in it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's on CNN. So how do you think
Speaker 1: this is going to play? I mean with what the
Speaker 1: people are going to decide the election?
Speaker 5: Right?
Speaker 1: Who are what six states? Many of those in the
Speaker 1: blue wall, many of those working people? Which way does
Speaker 1: this cut?
Speaker 3: It's the economy, stupid, And if their wallet isn't talking
Speaker 3: to talk like she's you know, saying, then they're going
Speaker 3: to have a reality check. They're going to understand that
Speaker 3: the last four years she's been in charge and she's
Speaker 3: created this mess, right, So why would we vote for
Speaker 3: her again?
Speaker 1: I hope that's what they think, Which goes back to
Speaker 1: your first point, which is you hope people are smart
Speaker 1: enough to see this, and they certainly are, right, They
Speaker 1: certainly are. And people know she has been part of
Speaker 1: this administration for four years, right, and people know that
Speaker 1: they associate her with Biden. They get that. But here's
Speaker 1: where I think, Heidie, it really hurts here. Okay, First
Speaker 1: of all, I think that ironically, among people who have
Speaker 1: less materially, which doesn't mean they're any less wealthy, because
Speaker 1: anybody who measures wealth by money is making a big mistake.
Speaker 1: But if you talk about people who have the right
Speaker 1: idea of wealth, okay, which is obviously you know, it
Speaker 1: comes down to faith, family, love, all of those things.
Speaker 1: You talk about. The working people of America, I think
Speaker 1: they put more value in being an American and more
Speaker 1: value of the blessings of America and being an American.
Speaker 1: And they take much more pride in America and its
Speaker 1: history and being American than Kamala Harrison the rest of
Speaker 1: these lefties. And so when you want to attack right
Speaker 1: at the heart of this system of capitalism, you know
Speaker 1: that has made America the greatest economic engine in history
Speaker 1: and has lifted all boats. You're going to have an
Speaker 1: awful lot of people who aren't just regular GOP voters
Speaker 1: who get very offended by that, very scared by it,
Speaker 1: and very insulted by it.
Speaker 3: And Dan, that's why I'm in this fight. I was
Speaker 3: a small business owner. I built my life around dogs.
Speaker 3: I mean, where else in the world can you build
Speaker 3: an incredible business, make a living, and give other people the.
Speaker 1: Opportunity to do that business.
Speaker 2: It is a rough business. It's a dirty business roof,
Speaker 2: but what a blessing that was.
Speaker 3: And I came from a family with lots of love
Speaker 3: but very little resources to do that, and so I
Speaker 3: got to live the American dream. And I want every
Speaker 3: kid in America to have that same opportunity.
Speaker 1: And that's what I'm saying. She thinks she's going to
Speaker 1: win over working people votes with this. I think it's
Speaker 1: going to be the opposite. And I know we have
Speaker 1: to hit this break. But where I think she's really, really,
Speaker 1: really going to get hurt is with the Latino vote,
Speaker 1: because you have so many people who have come from countries.
Speaker 1: They've left these countries because these countries were gutted by
Speaker 1: the same kind of policies she now wants America to
Speaker 1: pivot to. How do you think that's going to go,
Speaker 1: mister pune.
Speaker 3: Well, And one of the things that we're doing is
Speaker 3: a postcard writing campaign for women in swing districts that
Speaker 3: didn't vote in twenty twenty but voted in sixteen to
Speaker 3: get them to show up. And I have some great
Speaker 3: friends who came from Ukraine and Russia who are absolutely
Speaker 3: excited to do this and tell their story about coming
Speaker 3: from a country that they don't want to live in anymore.
Speaker 1: So they didn't come to America. They didn't come to
Speaker 1: America to of us become what they fled right right
Speaker 1: eight five four zero five A two five five text
Speaker 1: DA five seven seventh three nine Hidi ganal in the house. Fortunately,
Speaker 1: when we come back some more, I think very very
Speaker 1: good news for those of us who want to see
Speaker 1: Donald Trump get a second term. Here on the Dan
Speaker 1: Capla Show.
Speaker 6: And now back to the Dan Taplas Show podcast.
Speaker 1: It's not a campaign of self immolation. I don't get it.
Speaker 7: He's all about motivation and not persuasion. Anybody remember the
Speaker 7: days when you tried to persuade undecided voters instead of
Speaker 7: just rallying your base. When he refers to the vice
Speaker 7: president as a bum, as crazy, as stupid, or as
Speaker 7: a lunatic, he's pitching to the base and he's not
Speaker 7: winning your old neighborhood in the Philly Burbs nor mine.
Speaker 1: I don't get it. All this narrow casting, that's CNN.
Speaker 1: Michael Smerconish, Do you agree with that? Heidigenahal eight five
Speaker 1: five for zero five eight two five five text d
Speaker 1: an five seven seven three nine.
Speaker 3: Not really, Dan, I think it's overblown. The suburban moms
Speaker 3: are not watching the news like we do.
Speaker 2: They're not even seeing this stuff.
Speaker 3: They're going to pay attention in the last few weeks
Speaker 3: of the campaign, and hopefully they're going to look at
Speaker 3: their pocketbook, the cost of gas, the cost of bread,
Speaker 3: the cost of grocery shopping, and also the crime rates
Speaker 3: and in Denver, the Venezuelan gangs that are taking over whatever.
Speaker 3: But I don't think that's going to make a big difference.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, people vote their self interest right in
Speaker 1: the end, and I think that's what this election is
Speaker 1: going to be decided by, and I think that's why
Speaker 1: Donald Trump is going to win. We're all imperfect vessels
Speaker 1: for whatever it is we're trying to accomplish, right, and
Speaker 1: Donald Trump, in his own way is too. But at
Speaker 1: the same time, he's an incredibly impressive incredibly impressive when
Speaker 1: it comes to certain things such as strength versus weakness,
Speaker 1: such as peace, prosperity. Everybody knows the drills. So yeah,
Speaker 1: in the end, I think people are going to vote
Speaker 1: their own self interest, and yeah, you're going to have
Speaker 1: that segment of folks who just can't stomach his personality
Speaker 1: and that will determine the vote for them. But I
Speaker 1: think that number is going to be swamped by people
Speaker 1: voting their self interest. But here's my big point on
Speaker 1: what Michael had to say there, Heidi, is that what
Speaker 1: Donald Trump's banking on is what he won with in
Speaker 1: twenty sixteen, which is intense support, ferocious inspired turnout by
Speaker 1: a whole lot of people who normally don't vote, and
Speaker 1: they vote for him, not so much because of his policies,
Speaker 1: though they lean toward his policies. They vote for him
Speaker 1: because he is not a typical politician. They're voting they're
Speaker 1: voting to poke the system in the eye, and they're
Speaker 1: voting for that revel And I think what Trump's betting
Speaker 1: on is the one thing he can't afford to lose
Speaker 1: is that. And then he'll pick up others simply because
Speaker 1: of what he does to to make himself a vote
Speaker 1: for him in their best interest. But above all, he
Speaker 1: has to hold on to all those people who turn
Speaker 1: out for him because he's not just another politician.
Speaker 2: No, we want a fighter.
Speaker 3: We're tired, we're tired of, you know, being pushed into
Speaker 3: a corner, and the politicians get elected pretend.
Speaker 2: Like they're doing something they don't.
Speaker 3: We want somebody to go clean house, and we know
Speaker 3: he can do it. He proved it in the first
Speaker 3: four years and now he knows better how it all works.
Speaker 2: So he's not going to go in there blind.
Speaker 3: He's going to go in there ready prepared and taking
Speaker 3: out action on day one.
Speaker 1: Eric in Denver, you're with that, Dan and Heidi at
Speaker 1: six thirty Kitch at w in Denver, Case cool In
Speaker 1: four Collins, case CSJ in the Springs and beyond. How
Speaker 1: you doing, my friend?
Speaker 5: Hi?
Speaker 1: What do you think? Yes, sir miss eric One, I
Speaker 1: got one thing right today, you too? Thank you?
Speaker 5: Hi?
Speaker 1: He You know I was telling Kelly just too several
Speaker 1: ads before and after.
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 8: Yeah, yeah, I mean it's.
Speaker 5: So simple and then the ad would be so cheap
Speaker 5: Trump before.
Speaker 8: And then how it was beautifully after he got done?
Speaker 1: Yeah, good call my friend? Thank you? How do you
Speaker 1: miss this? And we're still having people spontaneously call in
Speaker 1: on it? And that is Trump uncharacteristically has failed to
Speaker 1: nail the label for Kamala Harris yet. And we haven't
Speaker 1: had the little marco lyon te all this and that
Speaker 1: and so listeners are making suggestions. Ryan pointed out today
Speaker 1: that our kind of leader in the clubhouse among listeners,
Speaker 1: Kamala Marx is now being adopted by somebody in the
Speaker 1: Trump campaign. But do you have that silver bullet magic
Speaker 1: word label.
Speaker 2: Oh, that's a good question.
Speaker 3: I think I like COMMI Kamala, I like chameleon. She
Speaker 3: changes depending on what way the wind blows on her policy.
Speaker 3: You know, at the end of the day, we've got
Speaker 3: to tap into this incompetent. She's just completely incompetent. And
Speaker 3: if he can find the right description for that, I
Speaker 3: think Americans are like, this is not the time to
Speaker 3: be putting someone in place that's incompetent.
Speaker 1: And I've asked our brilliant audience to try to come
Speaker 1: up with some that highlight weakness, because I do think
Speaker 1: that's going to be the determining dynamic in the end
Speaker 1: for a lot of people, because could not be more
Speaker 1: of a contrast. Right, Trump's strong, She's weak. Weakness puts
Speaker 1: the world on fire, which is what we're seeing under
Speaker 1: Biden Harris. Right now, Carly Ranch, you're on the Dan
Speaker 1: Kapla Show with how do you gonna Welcome?
Speaker 9: Hello to both of you? I still like cackling Hyena,
Speaker 9: but you know, I'm.
Speaker 2: Not really for president.
Speaker 9: Do you know what I wish I could say to
Speaker 9: these people that like Schmirnoff or whatever his name is,
Speaker 9: why is it okay to call Trump a racist, hitler, corrupt, this, that, whatever?
Speaker 9: And then when he starts to why is that not okay?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Yeah, no, good point. Thank you for that, Carly,
Speaker 1: very good point.
Speaker 10: I would summarize what Carly is saying. I think Heidi
Speaker 10: as echoed this too, is I watched this in real
Speaker 10: time yesterday and I'm like, yeah, you go, Donald Trump,
Speaker 10: because he's supposed to take all these punchers, including prosecution
Speaker 10: that would put him in prison, but he's not supposed
Speaker 10: to throw any right.
Speaker 1: But and him on this comes back to where he
Speaker 1: gains among the groups that the so called experts believe
Speaker 1: he's throwing away because when he shows strength, a lot
Speaker 1: of people may not like exactly the way he does it,
Speaker 1: but they say, okay, okay, that's a strong guy, that's
Speaker 1: a fighter. Oh that's right. When he was in office,
Speaker 1: we didn't have all this craziness around the world, you know,
Speaker 1: and it helps reinforce that brand for strength. HODI, what
Speaker 1: do you think of these texts, Dan, the T shirt
Speaker 1: has already made Kamala the stupid person's candidate. I don't
Speaker 1: think that's what.
Speaker 2: We're after the No, I don't think that's gonna fly.
Speaker 3: I get the sentiment, but yeah, yeah, it doesn't quite
Speaker 3: roll off the tongue.
Speaker 1: No. No, Trump's policies like high tide, raise all boats.
Speaker 1: It's a shame. Personality gets in the way. How do
Speaker 1: you respond to that.
Speaker 2: It's not like let's just let Trump be Trump. He
Speaker 2: is the man for the time.
Speaker 3: We need someone who's bold and not afraid to punch
Speaker 3: back and doesn't take it from the media.
Speaker 2: Who else would be able to do that?
Speaker 1: Right now?
Speaker 11: Yeah?
Speaker 1: And then I want you to jump on this one.
Speaker 1: I've got my own thoughts. When we come back from
Speaker 1: the break, Dan, I saw a sign hanging off someone's
Speaker 1: house that said end the war and women vote Democrat.
Speaker 1: Isn't it the Democrats waging the war on women? So
Speaker 1: let's tackle that after the break. I want to promote though,
Speaker 1: we're going to have another parent with us. I've had
Speaker 1: so many calls for parents from this highly respected charter
Speaker 1: school in Parker appears to be a great school, but
Speaker 1: so many parents upset, and I get why that a
Speaker 1: first grade boy? And you know this is all based
Speaker 1: on the reports I'm getting. You know, I've asked the
Speaker 1: school to respond. I call their attorney today, hopefully they'll
Speaker 1: get back to me. But reportedly there's a first grade
Speaker 1: boy who dresses up as a girl and it's causing
Speaker 1: a lot of confusion among the younger kids in the school,
Speaker 1: and the parents want their kids protected from that. And
Speaker 1: obviously your heart breaks for the little boy and how
Speaker 1: hard all of this must be on him. Not critical
Speaker 1: of him at all, but I do understand the parents
Speaker 1: who don't want their kids, you know, just subjected to
Speaker 1: all of that confusion and sexual stuff at such a
Speaker 1: young age. And so we're going to have another parent
Speaker 1: on the show do a quick hit with us at
Speaker 1: four thirty six. But the war on women, Heidi, which
Speaker 1: party is truly raised? Waging that?
Speaker 2: Oh, that's an easy one. I can't wait to answer.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And Heidi, you'll take the first swing at that
Speaker 1: low hanging pinata when we come back, and then and
Speaker 1: then I'll bet clean up after that. But we will
Speaker 1: have another parent with us from the Lehman Charter out
Speaker 1: in Parker just talking about their frustrations.
Speaker 6: Is it the.
Speaker 1: School's fault, Is it Polus's fault, the Biden administration's fault.
Speaker 1: You're on the Dan Kapla Show.
Speaker 6: You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
Speaker 12: We have to stay woke, like everybody needs to be woke,
Speaker 12: and you can talk about if you're the wokest or woker.
Speaker 2: Just stay more woke than less woke.
Speaker 1: Yeah, houpefully, Trump has about five hundred million to spend
Speaker 1: down the stretch, just in these six swing states, playing
Speaker 1: sound like that over and over and over again, and
Speaker 1: there is so much of it, unfortunately accompanying video. Fortunately,
Speaker 1: we are accompanied by Heidie ganaw in studio today and Tim,
Speaker 1: another parent from the Lehman Academy of Excellence in Parker.
Speaker 1: I understand it to be a very good charter school
Speaker 1: and parents are upset about a certain situation there, and
Speaker 1: I've been getting many calls, and so we've invited some
Speaker 1: parents to come on here. I've called the school and
Speaker 1: ask them to join us as well, and hopefully we'll
Speaker 1: get their side of it soon. Tim, Welcome to the
Speaker 1: Dan Kapli Show. Hi, Dan, Hey appreciate you being here
Speaker 1: for the folks not familiar with the situation, can you
Speaker 1: just tell them what's going on.
Speaker 11: So we were informed about forty eight hours. I had
Speaker 11: a schedule ahead of the start of the school year
Speaker 11: that there's going to be a meeting on or not
Speaker 11: gender ideology, but gender issues, gender identity. And it was
Speaker 11: posted outside the school, pretty small print on a piece
Speaker 11: of paper, and it was a meeting with the school board.
Speaker 11: The only time I'll say I love social media, but
Speaker 11: that was it got blasted out and there were a
Speaker 11: lot of parents that were in that were on these meetings.
Speaker 1: Somebody told me that it was hundreds of parents who
Speaker 1: joined into a zoom meeting with the board. And and
Speaker 1: for those new to the story, Tim, what is the
Speaker 1: big concern of you and other parents?
Speaker 11: I think our biggest concern is being a being a
Speaker 11: first grader at seven years old, and you know, one
Speaker 11: year you're a boy and then he'd come back from
Speaker 11: summer break and presenting and asking to be called by
Speaker 11: UH by a girl's name is a little concerning. And
Speaker 11: for us, our decision to uh this step away was
Speaker 11: was based on on the fact that I'm not I'm
Speaker 11: not going to have that discussion with my seven year
Speaker 11: old child. Yeah, it's not age appropriate, and you know,
Speaker 11: they're very curious as it is, and those aren't really
Speaker 11: topics that they need to be worried about at that age.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: They seems to me they should not have to deal
Speaker 1: with that at that age. And that's not a criticism
Speaker 1: of the little boy who I've been told is you know,
Speaker 1: wearing dresses to school and things like that. Never be
Speaker 1: critical of a child that young. My heart breaks for him,
Speaker 1: But for the parents who are Yeah, how do you
Speaker 1: explain it to kids? So how has your family dealt
Speaker 1: with that?
Speaker 11: We actually ended up with drawing our kids from the school,
Speaker 11: and we're fortunate enough to find another option. I know,
Speaker 11: my heart goes out to all parents that are stuck
Speaker 11: in that situation that want to be away from it.
Speaker 11: They're not able to transfer to any other Douglas County
Speaker 11: schools from what I understand, because they're enrolled in a
Speaker 11: Douglas County charter school.
Speaker 3: Interest Heidi, that's one of the concerns I've had, and Tim,
Speaker 3: maybe you can weigh in on this, is that as
Speaker 3: we see this legislation come through at the Capitol, not
Speaker 3: a lot of people understand how that's translating to what's
Speaker 3: happening in their own kids' classrooms, and this is an
Speaker 3: example of how that policy is playing out. The charter
Speaker 3: school is likely they likely have their hands tied on
Speaker 3: what they can do because of the legislation that's passed
Speaker 3: in Denver, and they consider it bullying or discrimination if
Speaker 3: the school does anything differently than just say, hey, this
Speaker 3: is how it's going to go.
Speaker 2: So it does go back to the parents.
Speaker 3: And that's the same reason we moved back to Douglas County,
Speaker 3: or moved to Douglas County from Boulder County.
Speaker 2: Back in twenty eighteen.
Speaker 3: My twins were in first grade and we didn't get
Speaker 3: notified our heads up that they were doing a play
Speaker 3: where they were representing a sex change operation for a
Speaker 3: little baby bird. Yeah, and it was like what on Earth?
Speaker 3: And this was kind of before all the woke stuff
Speaker 3: started happening. So thirty families protested. We all ended up
Speaker 3: leaving the school. They moved the principal to another school,
Speaker 3: but they defended themselves to the nth degree.
Speaker 2: The district defended themselves.
Speaker 3: We tried to start an ascent classical up there because
Speaker 3: of it, got seven hundred kids signed up in Boulder
Speaker 3: County and the board turned us down.
Speaker 1: Oh jeez, and talk about putting kids last. Right. But
Speaker 1: what I'm wondering here, Tim, is unlike Heidi's situation, is
Speaker 1: this a situation where the school and the district would
Speaker 1: rather do it your way but feel that because of
Speaker 1: the Polish led laws and because of the Biden administration
Speaker 1: led laws, that they don't have a choice. I don't
Speaker 1: know if that's the case. I haven't been able to
Speaker 1: get anybody from the school to respond, but I wonder
Speaker 1: if that's the situation here.
Speaker 11: So my understanding. We had a discussion with Colorile Parents
Speaker 11: Advocacy at work the night before the school board meeting
Speaker 11: was to take place, and it was very informative. We
Speaker 11: learned a lot. I mean, the Title nine stuff that
Speaker 11: came down from the buying administration is it seems like
Speaker 11: it's pretty unconstitutional and easily challengeable. But the hard part
Speaker 11: is the state law the House built twenty four ten
Speaker 11: thirty nine. I think the non legal name change law
Speaker 11: is probably the biggest concern.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because.
Speaker 11: Even the teachers, they're able to go after the teachers
Speaker 11: that they don't go along with using the right pronouns.
Speaker 11: Or right names. Not just the district or the school
Speaker 11: that can be a trouble. It's it's all of them.
Speaker 3: Dan, One thing I wanted to bring up is the
Speaker 3: declining enrollment in public schools across the state, especially in Denver.
Speaker 3: There's a reason for that. Parents aren't okay with this,
Speaker 3: and the school districts and the administrators I believe in
Speaker 3: the more conservative counties are expressing those concerns to the
Speaker 3: state capitol and the folks that work there and the governor.
Speaker 2: And they don't care. They just don't care.
Speaker 1: They have an agenda, right, and an arrogance, an unimaginable,
Speaker 1: unearned arrogance. But Tim, it certainly feel for you and
Speaker 1: every other parent who just your kids are so little,
Speaker 1: you're only innocent like that once. Just let them have
Speaker 1: their youth like that, not have to be immersed in
Speaker 1: these sex and gender issues and all of that. So
Speaker 1: I completely get your concern, and we'll keep trying to
Speaker 1: use the show to get to the bottom of Okay,
Speaker 1: you know, is this a case where the school's hands
Speaker 1: are tied? And if so, then let's look at the
Speaker 1: laws that tie the school's hands and let's get rid
Speaker 1: of those laws. But Tim, appreciate you sharing your story
Speaker 1: and best to you and your family.
Speaker 11: And today add some I think you know we've I've
Speaker 11: followed this very closely for almost the full decades, and
Speaker 11: we chose the school. We were very diligent about the
Speaker 11: school that we sent our kids to, and they were
Speaker 11: very virtues based and we felt extremely comfortable. I think
Speaker 11: we got a little complacent, and you know, you never
Speaker 11: think that that kind of thing is gonna come to
Speaker 11: your front door, especially when you're in an accounty like us.
Speaker 11: But just follow local politics. Watch these state bills. Go
Speaker 11: to Colorado Parents Advocacy Network. They help parents track that
Speaker 11: kind of stuff. And a lot of our politicians during
Speaker 11: the state are just straight up back to this, Well,
Speaker 11: dads get involved, stay involved in your kids stuff. It's
Speaker 11: it's their very important.
Speaker 1: Hey man, thank you, Tim, I appreciate the time today.
Speaker 1: And Heidi. Another exhibit. We have so many exhibit a's
Speaker 1: when it comes to the need for pure school choice, right,
Speaker 1: just empower the parents. Empower the parents with these you know,
Speaker 1: use the term voucher, scholarships, whatever, but empower the parents
Speaker 1: and let the free market go to work on behalf
Speaker 1: of these kids and these parents and you know, can
Speaker 1: you imagine, I know, you know better than anybody how
Speaker 1: beautiful that would be and how transformative for the state
Speaker 1: in America. But people like Polists and the rest of
Speaker 1: the left, they will fight to the death to stop
Speaker 1: that from happening.
Speaker 3: Yeah, they want to control our children, They want to
Speaker 3: break down our families.
Speaker 1: Plus they no, I mean, they can do the math.
Speaker 1: On the left. They know that once people start making
Speaker 1: you know, it used to be fifty thousand, it might
Speaker 1: be fifty five or fifty six now a majority vote republican.
Speaker 1: I mean, the entire left has a vested interest in
Speaker 1: keeping a whole lot of people down economically. There can
Speaker 1: be no doubt about that.
Speaker 3: And Dan, the stats show in every state where there's
Speaker 3: pure school choice, it's like magic.
Speaker 2: It works magic for the kids that most needed.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So when you get phonies, liars like Polis and Harris
Speaker 1: and those saying freedom, we're all about freedom. Yeah, how
Speaker 1: about school choice? Hey, they get quiet in a hurry.
Speaker 1: You're on the Dan Capla Show.
Speaker 6: And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.
Speaker 1: I introduce Exhibit A, the only exhibit we need to
Speaker 1: prove it's Kamala marks.
Speaker 12: It has to be about a goal of saying everybody
Speaker 12: should end up in the same place. And since we
Speaker 12: didn't start in the same place, some folks might need
Speaker 12: more equitable distribution, giving resources based on equity understanding that
Speaker 12: we fight for equality, but we also need to fight
Speaker 12: for equity understanding, and not everyone.
Speaker 2: Starts out at the same place.
Speaker 13: So there's a big difference between equality and equity. Equality
Speaker 13: suggest often everybody should get the same thing. Well, that
Speaker 13: often assumes everybody started out in the same place, as
Speaker 13: opposed to equity, which is everyone should end up in
Speaker 13: the same place.
Speaker 1: Oh, my lord, there it is. I'm sorry, drop the mic,
Speaker 1: that's all I need, your honor. Call off the rest
Speaker 1: of the trial. Let's let the jury deliberate. So guaranteed outcome,
Speaker 1: not equal opportunity. Guaranteed equal outcome. That's the definition, right.
Speaker 1: Whatever ism you want to apply to that, it probably
Speaker 1: fits it squarely. So I am at Heidi. I just
Speaker 1: cannot imagine. At the end of the day, America is
Speaker 1: going to elect a far left San Francisco radical who
Speaker 1: is publicly committed to that kind of ism. Call it Marxism,
Speaker 1: call communism, call whatever you want, but it's the opposite
Speaker 1: of the United States of America when you are going
Speaker 1: to now guarantee equal outcome.
Speaker 2: No, it breaks my heart.
Speaker 3: It is assolutely the opposite of what America was built on,
Speaker 3: what we all love so much about our country. As
Speaker 3: an entrepreneur, a business person, I love entrepreneurship, I love
Speaker 3: free markets, I love capitalism. It's done more to solve
Speaker 3: the worst problems in society than any other thing on
Speaker 3: the planet in the history of man.
Speaker 1: And Kamala Marxism has never worked anywhere. Now she's talking
Speaker 1: today about price fixing and all of this, and yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: so now you give the free money thing, you give
Speaker 1: twenty five thousand for new home. All that means is
Speaker 1: the price of the new homes are going up twenty
Speaker 1: five thrusts, right, and then you're having skyrocketing inflation because
Speaker 1: you're printing more money to do all of those giveaways.
Speaker 1: And it's such an insult to people.
Speaker 5: Right.
Speaker 1: But again, this is, I believe, Heidi, the fatal miscalculation
Speaker 1: of the left. They're so arrogant, they look down and
Speaker 1: working people. They think working people are jealous of people
Speaker 1: who have more money. No, working people just want equal opportunity,
Speaker 1: and they get it that these kind of policies are
Speaker 1: what blew up Venezuela and so many other countries. And
Speaker 1: it's like Kamala Chavez.
Speaker 2: Now, oh hey, there's another nickname.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah, we're referencing, obviously, Hugo Chavez in Venezuela. Yes,
Speaker 1: some Texters. Oh, by the way, before we get back
Speaker 1: to the phone lines, the earlier texter had wanted to say,
Speaker 1: wait a second, isn't the Democrats who are really waging
Speaker 1: the war on women?
Speaker 2: That makes me crazy?
Speaker 3: I mean, yes, the Democrats are waging war on women.
Speaker 3: It is not the Republican Party. Look at what happened
Speaker 3: at the Olympics. Watch what happened with the Olympics and
Speaker 3: women's sports.
Speaker 2: Women's sports are being destroyed.
Speaker 3: And we have worked so hard over the last couple
Speaker 3: decades to give our girls a great chance at competing
Speaker 3: at the highest levels, and that's going away right in
Speaker 3: front of our eyes, and they're not seeing a peep
Speaker 3: about it. In fact, they're encouraging it. And I also
Speaker 3: think about the regret that a lot of these girls
Speaker 3: have that decided to make drastic changes to their body
Speaker 3: when they were little because of this movement. Towards you know,
Speaker 3: mutilation and and and getting rid of body parts and
Speaker 3: in this whole kind of trendy thing to change your
Speaker 3: body so dramatically, and uh, they're regretting it. A lot
Speaker 3: of these young women are regretting it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, And I sure hope and hopeful that this insanity
Speaker 1: of letting men play women's sports, boys play girls' sports
Speaker 1: will play a factor in the outcome here because it
Speaker 1: can only be in President Trump's favor, right, But but
Speaker 1: I hope that's hammered in the Swing States as well.
Speaker 1: I hope, I hope Harris is pinned down on that
Speaker 1: in the debates. Also, Brian and Arvada. You're on the
Speaker 1: Dan Kapla Show with Heidi Ganah welcome and Brian.
Speaker 11: O.
Speaker 1: Brian, Yes, fire away, my friend.
Speaker 5: Oh, Dan, I got the I got the cure for
Speaker 5: the illegal immigration stuff and what.
Speaker 14: We do, Yes, we know what they're running from. We
Speaker 14: know what they're running from, right, and most of them
Speaker 14: are pretty good piece people. So what I'm thinking is
Speaker 14: Trump should come out and say I'm going to give
Speaker 14: all you immigrants mass community. You're going to come into
Speaker 14: the country, but you're going to have to live by
Speaker 14: our laws.
Speaker 5: And I think that would go a long way to
Speaker 5: getting him because what he can say is if you
Speaker 5: vote Kamala, you're gonna vote for what you ran from.
Speaker 5: That's why you came here. So we got to.
Speaker 8: Play their games. It's not that hard.
Speaker 5: And you're gonna have to live by our laws, you know,
Speaker 5: but we're going to offer you, you know, like you
Speaker 5: guys are just talking about equal opportunity, everything comes to freedom.
Speaker 8: And I think as long as we dan and I
Speaker 8: know I've never said this, but as long as we
Speaker 8: keep battling, because they're going to have the illegals vote,
Speaker 8: so the illegals are either going to vote for what
Speaker 8: they came from, or maybe Donald Trump could come out
Speaker 8: and say, you know what, I'm going to give you
Speaker 8: all amnesty and I'm gonna I'm going to assimulate and
Speaker 8: you to the United States because we got to go
Speaker 8: on offense.
Speaker 5: We can't keep doing deepense.
Speaker 1: Brian, appreciate that point. We're coming up on the end.
Speaker 1: Height to your thoughts on that.
Speaker 3: Well, I just think you should only be able to
Speaker 3: come into the country legally and stand in line. There's
Speaker 3: a lot of people who have been waiting a long
Speaker 3: time to get into our country and want to do
Speaker 3: it the right way. And it's not fair. And I
Speaker 3: know that America likes things be fair, and so I
Speaker 3: am kind of tapping into that. I don't think most
Speaker 3: Americans are okay, especially folks that have immigrated here legally,
Speaker 3: with how this is happening right right.
Speaker 1: Latest polling shows almost two thirds of Americans across party lines,
Speaker 1: favor mass deportation. Trump's single biggest advantage is on the border.
Speaker 1: I think he should stand firm on that, and then
Speaker 1: you know, once we get that border controlled, we can
Speaker 1: do a better job of deciding who stays, who goes,
Speaker 1: et cetera. But no, I think Trump needs to stay
Speaker 1: very strong in that. Heidi Ganal in studio when we
Speaker 1: come back, Well, kick off next hour with five reasons
Speaker 1: to be even more optimistic Trump will win. You're on
Speaker 1: the Dan Kepler Show.
