Speaker 1: single day on your favorite podcast platform. How do you
Speaker 1: want your winning served up today? Alphabetical order, chronological order
Speaker 1: by gender. Hey, take your pick, because there is a long,
Speaker 1: long buffet of victory here to feast on. Let's start
Speaker 1: with one that I think is of just ginormous importance
Speaker 1: to this country in a very practical way starting today,
Speaker 1: and is also absolutely key to President Trump's success, and
Speaker 1: that is Hey, nc DOUBLEA today finally ends the madness
Speaker 1: thanks to the American people giving Trump a second term.
Speaker 1: Trump promise is made, Trump promise is kept. No more
Speaker 1: men in women's sports, and the NCUBA makes it official today.
Speaker 1: And obviously the magnitude of that, because that's going to
Speaker 1: extend even into other places, I believe, other places that
Speaker 1: aren't affected directly by the president's order this precedent for
Speaker 1: so many different reasons. Right concerned about legal liability even
Speaker 1: if the presidential executive order doesn't apply directly to you,
Speaker 1: because you're outside the government stream, but beyond that just sanity,
Speaker 1: because the whole thing was always utter madness, never made
Speaker 1: any sense on any level any starting with science, indisputable
Speaker 1: basic science, then getting to fundamental fairness, then getting to
Speaker 1: why in the world would anybody ever support a war
Speaker 1: on women? And this is an outright war on women,
Speaker 1: on their private spaces, on their sports. So yeah, this
Speaker 1: is such a blow for sanity, it's such a blow
Speaker 1: for freedom, it's such a blow for women.
Speaker 2: It's a beautiful thing. It's our Republican action.
Speaker 1: And by the way, truly I think one of the
Speaker 1: top five greatest presidential photos ever President Trump at that
Speaker 1: signing ceremony, and you can see it at Dan Kaplis
Speaker 1: on Twitter. Please do like me while you're there, or
Speaker 1: at least like my Twitter account. But it is just
Speaker 1: such a compelling photo. And if you get there, then
Speaker 1: then zoom in on the young kids who are who
Speaker 1: are right up next to President Trump on either side
Speaker 1: of the desk that he's signing the EO on, and just.
Speaker 2: The look on their face.
Speaker 1: But the whole thing it is it is like if
Speaker 1: if Norman Rockwell was a photographer. Beautiful stuff eight five
Speaker 1: five ur is our five eight two five five takes
Speaker 1: d A N five seven seven three nine. Hey, I
Speaker 1: do want to know, if you're in the Denver area
Speaker 1: thanks to our listeners in the Denver area six cerd
Speaker 1: KHW Denver, if you're going to be honoring the King
Speaker 1: Soupers picket lines the strikes are back on.
Speaker 2: It seemed like the.
Speaker 1: Strikes ended yesterday, doesn't it right? And so are you
Speaker 1: going to support the striking workers. I'm a regular King
Speaker 1: Soopers guy, like King Super, go there all the time,
Speaker 1: respect the people who work there. Everybody I run into
Speaker 1: there is great. So I've I've really got to think
Speaker 1: about that, because you know, I do a lot of this.
Speaker 1: My wife turned me onto this insta cart stuff. Is
Speaker 1: that the same as crossing the picket line? What do
Speaker 1: you think if you do an instakart? Is that the
Speaker 1: same as crossing the picket line? Eight five five five
Speaker 1: two five five text d A N five seven seven
Speaker 1: three nine. I've never heard that question, I asked on
Speaker 1: air before, maybe because nobody cares, but I do.
Speaker 2: What do you think, Ryan?
Speaker 1: Because I kind of pride myself on not crossing picket lines.
Speaker 1: If I'm paying somebody to cross the picket line, through
Speaker 1: an Insta cart Is that the same thing?
Speaker 3: It feels like an Insta Classic promo, as you might
Speaker 3: recall when you were talking about that. Yes, yeah, I'll
Speaker 3: play that just for funsies coming back and the next week.
Speaker 2: I love funsies.
Speaker 3: But uh, Frandy, who messaged you and is a longtime listener,
Speaker 3: is an employee at King Supers and has asked for
Speaker 3: solidarity with the unionized members that work there. So don't
Speaker 3: be a scab, Dan, And that is never have been.
Speaker 1: I used to work on the picket lines and in
Speaker 1: Chicago it was called Jewel J E W E. L.
Speaker 1: And I was on the picket lines for United farm Workers.
Speaker 1: So I'm in the seminary high school seminary in Chicago,
Speaker 1: and we were trying to save up money so we
Speaker 1: could go during spring break to visit Caesar Chavez and
Speaker 1: get out to California. But we couldn't raise enough money.
Speaker 1: I ended up cattying during spring break. But yeah, so
Speaker 1: my job with the United farm Workers was I was
Speaker 1: the gringo who'd got on the picket lines at King Supers.
Speaker 1: No Jewel, I'm sorry, this is jewel in Chicago. I
Speaker 1: never heard of King Superstar. I got I thought somebody
Speaker 1: was joking. So did I say, hey, man, I need
Speaker 1: to get some pea. Oh go to King Supers after
Speaker 1: But yeah, I just didn't believe it. But yeah, so
Speaker 1: I would be on the picket line and then people
Speaker 1: would be turning in and and we'd be on the
Speaker 1: picket line and they'd turn away and we'd all clap.
Speaker 2: And then part of my job, and.
Speaker 1: I won't digress on this though I already have part
Speaker 1: of my job as kind of the designated Gringo, was
Speaker 1: I would get my parents' old Cornett Dodge Cornet and
Speaker 1: I would pretend to be driving up and then honoring
Speaker 1: the picket lines and driving away. So I do that
Speaker 1: like a hundred times as a role model for other shops. Okay, okay,
Speaker 1: So I was the shill. I was to pretend the
Speaker 1: marson who wasn't the mark. Yes, but it was. It
Speaker 1: was great work.
Speaker 3: I think you just accidentally maybe stumbled upon a new
Speaker 3: name for the show, the Designated Gringo.
Speaker 1: That's okay, Yeah, tell me what the west Wing says
Speaker 1: about that eight five five for zero five A two
Speaker 1: five five takes d a N five seven seven three nine.
Speaker 1: But those are good memories. Yeah, and I yeah, no
Speaker 1: my inclination. I honestly couldn't tell you what the issues
Speaker 1: are right now. But yeah, I'm not I'm not going
Speaker 1: to break the picket line.
Speaker 2: But I'd love to hear from other people.
Speaker 1: I'm sure there are plenty of good people who are
Speaker 1: and I'd love to hear your thoughts on that, because
Speaker 1: I personally don't see it.
Speaker 2: I don't.
Speaker 1: Again, I don't know the details of this strike, but
Speaker 1: it's hard for me to imagine that these folks are
Speaker 1: asking for something crazy or exorbitant or whatever. And if
Speaker 1: I'm wrong on that, I'm the first to admit it.
Speaker 1: But my just knee jerk reaction is to honor the
Speaker 1: picket line. A five ur zero five A two five
Speaker 1: five text d A N five seven seven three nine.
Speaker 2: So yeah, where do I go from there?
Speaker 1: I guess insta kart from somewhere else. Anyway, I got
Speaker 1: to talk about all sorts of stuff today. I've got
Speaker 1: to get into the ice raids, the ice raids and
Speaker 1: some kind of instant classic sound. Here here is a
Speaker 1: Kusa's story that refers to the fear and uncertainty in
Speaker 1: immigrant communities.
Speaker 4: This is the day the President Donald Trump's mass immigration
Speaker 4: raids came to Colorado. One goal was clearly achieved, creating
Speaker 4: fear and uncertainty in immigrant communities that deportations could happen
Speaker 4: at any time.
Speaker 1: It's not not to be picky, but if you're here legally,
Speaker 1: there's no chance of deportation, right. Or I may have
Speaker 1: missed something. I haven't read the fine print of the bill,
Speaker 1: but doesn't that have to be part of the story.
Speaker 1: I mean, if is this a news or commentary piece?
Speaker 5: Right?
Speaker 2: I think I sent you the sound.
Speaker 3: Is it a news piece or a commentary piece? Because
Speaker 3: it's a little blurred lines there.
Speaker 2: We know this.
Speaker 1: If it's a news piece, right, just basic journalistic ethics
Speaker 1: one oh one, you'd have to include that critical fact
Speaker 1: that the raids are for illegal immigrants. So I assume
Speaker 1: it's a commentary piece. And then obviously anybody offering this
Speaker 1: commentaryume would have chosen to leave that critical fact out
Speaker 1: because it would have hurt their argument.
Speaker 5: Here.
Speaker 4: However, if another objective was met, actually removing a significant
Speaker 4: number of violent criminals from the streets, a goal that
Speaker 4: is widely shared by Colorado's community leaders.
Speaker 1: What it has to be commentary, right, And once again,
Speaker 1: I don't know if it's meant as comedy commentary a
Speaker 1: goal widely shared by community leaders take dangerous criminal illegal
Speaker 1: immigrants off the street. Wait a second, what about all
Speaker 1: these laws that pol As signed, all these laws the
Speaker 1: left pushed and bragged about, all these laws that severely
Speaker 1: restrict what law enforcement can do to help ICE take
Speaker 1: criminals off the street. We're talking about a law that says,
Speaker 1: once somebody's actually convicted to the point they're on parole,
Speaker 1: to the point they're.
Speaker 2: On probation, making it.
Speaker 1: Much much harder, if not impossible, for the probation offered
Speaker 1: to officer to cooperate with ICE. How can anybody make
Speaker 1: that statement widely supported by the community leaders. No, the
Speaker 1: Colorado Democratic Party has a bill that is specifically intended
Speaker 1: to protect criminals people here illegally. You've committed other crimes
Speaker 1: and are now on probation. So that is it must
Speaker 1: be men as comedy, some kind of satire, some kind
Speaker 1: of parody.
Speaker 2: We'll get back to that.
Speaker 1: Eight y five for zero five A two five five text,
Speaker 1: D N five seven, seven through nine. Are you going
Speaker 1: to cross the King Soupers picket lines? You're on the
Speaker 1: Dan Kapla show.
Speaker 6: And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.
Speaker 3: What is that song about girls and women's sports and space?
Speaker 6: Dan?
Speaker 1: Come, of course, but we're on the King Supers topic
Speaker 1: now you yes?
Speaker 2: Okay, thank you?
Speaker 5: No.
Speaker 1: We open the show by celebrating that right, monumentally important
Speaker 1: President Trump promises made, promises kept and the big reason
Speaker 1: he won the election. That blockbuster, the most effective ad
Speaker 1: probably since the Daisy Ad in sixty three, you know,
Speaker 1: and because eighty twenty issue in America at least right,
Speaker 1: and Scott Jennings has a great riff on that. Let
Speaker 1: me get to this before I get back to the
Speaker 1: King super Strike, but the point being that, yeah, no,
Speaker 1: any sane American right now is going to be opposed
Speaker 1: to men and women's sports.
Speaker 2: But the Democratic Party, like on so many issues, decides
Speaker 2: this is going to be the hill they fight and
Speaker 2: die on, though they could never really explain why.
Speaker 1: I have my own theory on why the Democratic Party
Speaker 1: became so committed to You are a bigot.
Speaker 2: You will be canceled, you.
Speaker 1: Will be run out of civilized society unless you agree
Speaker 1: that women are men and men are women, and men
Speaker 1: can go into women's locker rooms. I mean it became
Speaker 1: an all out crusade for them, a holy war for them.
Speaker 1: And I think there were motives, very very powerful motives
Speaker 1: that went far beyond this issue, because again, no sane
Speaker 1: person could argue in favor of this garbage men and
Speaker 1: women's sports, cutting breasts off able body teenage girls. No,
Speaker 1: no seene person could support any of that. The Left
Speaker 1: had a bigger purpose here, multi purposes, including including undermining
Speaker 1: religious freedom, religious liberty, etc. But it was a multi
Speaker 1: purpose that they pursued through this madness, and fortunately it
Speaker 1: cost them the election. I think it was maybe the
Speaker 1: single driving, biggest driving factor and costing them the election.
Speaker 2: But they will not learn from it.
Speaker 7: He's describing what is currently the dumbest strategy in politics,
Speaker 7: which is Democrats taking the twenty percent side of every
Speaker 7: eighty twenty issue in America. Usaid people want this pair down,
Speaker 7: they want to streamline, they want to know where the
Speaker 7: money is going. Democrats have a meltdown. Today, Donald Trump
Speaker 7: signs executive order on keeping boys out.
Speaker 2: Of girls sports.
Speaker 7: Democrats take the twenty side of that issue.
Speaker 2: As well all these issues.
Speaker 7: This is like Trump's superpower, finding a bunch of eighty
Speaker 7: twenty issues getting on the eighty and everybody who sort
Speaker 7: of reflexively against him gets on the twenty and now
Speaker 7: the Democratic Party has like a thirty one percent approval rating.
Speaker 1: This is why, what a brilliant point, right, But they're
Speaker 1: not going to change that.
Speaker 2: They are not going to change that. Now.
Speaker 1: The key is for whoever the GOP nominees are in
Speaker 1: Colorado for governor and Senate is to absolutely pin down,
Speaker 1: nail to the wall the Democrat nominee on these eighty
Speaker 1: twenty issues. Don't let them off the hook, you know,
Speaker 1: the media let them off the hook, but do not
Speaker 1: let him off the hook.
Speaker 2: You know, do you believe that men should be in
Speaker 2: women's sports? Right?
Speaker 1: I mean in all of these eighty twenty issues, Dan
Speaker 1: says a Texter. Maybe because it was a Democrat like
Speaker 1: you until old school politics turned me to the GOP
Speaker 1: twenty seven years ago. I won't cross the picket line either.
Speaker 1: That from Donna, Thank you, Donna. I did learn during
Speaker 1: the break that looks like the strike is mainly over
Speaker 1: inadequate staffing, and the union saying that quote workers are
Speaker 1: being asked to do the jobs of two three four
Speaker 1: workers and customers see this lack of staffing in the
Speaker 1: form of long lines, empty shelves, shuttered departments like delis
Speaker 1: or meat counters and bakeries.
Speaker 2: According to the Union, Brian and Arvada, you're on the
Speaker 2: dan Kaplis.
Speaker 6: She'll welcome, Hey Dan.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I won't cross the picket line. I don't even
Speaker 8: know who's right, But when it comes to disputes on labor,
Speaker 8: I don't want to get involved. Like during COVID, I
Speaker 8: knew the mask was stupid and it was completely wrong.
Speaker 8: So I was that one guy in the store without
Speaker 8: a mask because I was sure about that. So I
Speaker 8: set up for what I believed in. But this I
Speaker 8: just don't have the knowledge of who's you know, what
Speaker 8: the whole dispute's about, and it's kind of uncomfortable. You
Speaker 8: kind of want to go for the workers. So yeah, yeah,
Speaker 8: I guess I'll just stand in long lines at Safeway now,
Speaker 8: because everybody's gonna be rolling over the Safeway. We're ill
Speaker 8: gonna have to wait an hour.
Speaker 1: If you tried instacurt from Safeway? Have you tried instacurt
Speaker 1: from Safeway?
Speaker 8: Now?
Speaker 2: Have you heard of instacurrent?
Speaker 8: Is it possible?
Speaker 2: My wife turned me.
Speaker 8: On to it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, just look up the app I n s t
Speaker 1: a cart and then you can plug in. Dan, you're
Speaker 1: gonna lose some weight. No, hey, that's that may be
Speaker 1: the key to happiness, my friend. Thank you for the call.
Speaker 1: But yeah, instacart, my wife turned me onto it and
Speaker 1: it's it's a great great savings.
Speaker 2: I but this texture, is it? Right? Dan?
Speaker 1: Instacart is definitely crossing the picket line. The point is
Speaker 1: to reduce King Super's business to get their attention. Chuck
Speaker 1: at King Supers Retiree. You're right about that, Chuck.
Speaker 2: I will not be instacarting from King Supers, as much
Speaker 2: as I love the.
Speaker 1: Store during this strike. I'm going to honor the strike.
Speaker 1: But if you have not tried instacart, get that app.
Speaker 1: It is so good and and just not very expensive
Speaker 1: at all. Be sure to leave a good tip. As
Speaker 1: a guy who's worked many years for tips, not anymore
Speaker 1: nobody tips or lawyer? What's that all about?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Can we start a little campaign. I'm joking.
Speaker 1: I'm joking it so anyway, I'm tired. Some of these
Speaker 1: texts are getting too long today, but I sure appreciate
Speaker 1: the enthusiasm. Dan, Curious woman killed in southern Colorado two
Speaker 1: and a half weeks ago by animal attack. No news reports.
Speaker 1: First reports said not a mountain lion. And want to know.
Speaker 2: What the facts are in that. Have you heard about that? Ryan, Nope, Kelly, Chuck,
Speaker 2: tell me if you guys think this could possibly be
Speaker 2: just a coincidence, right. Thirty second version of the story.
Speaker 2: My brother comes in to visit.
Speaker 1: Me while I'm in college or maybe law school, and
Speaker 1: we're hitchhiking up to Estes Park. Didn't have a car.
Speaker 1: Then picked him up at the airport with a sign
Speaker 1: that said Boulder. We're hitchhiking up to Este's Park. Somebody
Speaker 1: drops us off out in North Boulder, and I'm telling
Speaker 1: them that, hey, just a not a week or to go.
Speaker 1: But sometime recently there was a little kid mauled by
Speaker 1: a pack of dogs, torn completely apart. It was amazing
Speaker 1: he lived. So we were hoping, Okay, I hope we
Speaker 1: don't get malt here. Long story short, We're hitchhiking back
Speaker 1: late that night, like ten or eleven at night.
Speaker 2: We get picked up in Esty's Park.
Speaker 1: We get into both of us getting to the back
Speaker 1: of this SUV type thing, and Ryan, who do you
Speaker 1: think is sitting between us in the back of the suv.
Speaker 2: The kid who had been mauled by the wild packet dogs.
Speaker 1: What are the odds on that they'd taken the kid
Speaker 1: out for some fresh air? What are the odds on that?
Speaker 1: And this kid he looked like a baseball. I mean,
Speaker 1: there were stitches everywhere, but God loved me. Was the
Speaker 1: coolest kid, completely torn apart by that pack of dogs.
Speaker 2: Don't see that much of that anymore. How many texts
Speaker 2: do it? Which is good?
Speaker 1: How many texts do we have now today on the elk?
Speaker 1: This is the issue that will not die and I
Speaker 1: get it. I get why people are so upset about
Speaker 1: that elk. So we'll follow up on that today. If
Speaker 1: you're new to the story, beautiful elk, it runs off
Speaker 1: into this snowfield behind some house and steamboat gets caught
Speaker 1: in the snow up to its neck gets trapped. That
Speaker 1: wonderful homeowner calls parks and Wildlife. They won't come to
Speaker 1: rescue it, which I think is outrageous. Homeowner rescues organized
Speaker 1: as a posse. In the morning. They come out with
Speaker 1: shovels to save the animal. While they're eating breakfast. The
Speaker 1: animal parishes. So that's the story that people are still
Speaker 1: responding to and my point is, as a civilized society,
Speaker 1: we cannot allow our government to just say they're going
Speaker 1: to ignore that animal dying in pain being tortured. Essentially, Dan,
Speaker 1: they'll probably charge you.
Speaker 2: A picket fee. Is there such a thing?
Speaker 1: What does that even mean? But no, I'm not going
Speaker 1: to honor the picket line. Are you eight five to
Speaker 1: five for zero five eight two five five? Then number
Speaker 1: and when we come back, some very compelling sound about
Speaker 1: the immigration raids.
Speaker 2: Going on in Denver. You're on the Dan Kapla Show.
Speaker 6: You're listening to the Dan Kapliss Show podcast.
Speaker 2: I don't know how to do it, man, That's that's
Speaker 2: great stuff.
Speaker 1: At ninety nine percent of what your play I've never
Speaker 1: heard of, but it's really cool. You know, you should
Speaker 1: put together some kind of Ryan's playlist, a kind.
Speaker 3: Of I had that idea and I got short circuited
Speaker 3: because of our our rights do not extend from our
Speaker 3: on air portion of the show to the digital online pods.
Speaker 2: Which you could write it off. You could host it
Speaker 2: as a play of service to humanity totally.
Speaker 1: We're waiting on Congressoman Bolbert, this is going to be fun,
Speaker 1: and Congressman Gabe Evans joins us at five oh six
Speaker 1: because Gabe has waived onto the House Oversight Committee for
Speaker 1: the questioning of lawless Mike Johnston and the other Democrats
Speaker 1: who are going to appear before the committee to talk
Speaker 1: about sanctuary cities.
Speaker 2: So that is great news that Gabe's going to be there.
Speaker 1: In Congressoman Bobert as well, let me get started with
Speaker 1: this caller, and then when the congressoman's on the line, guys,
Speaker 1: just let me know. And I'm sure Scott you'll understand
Speaker 1: right if I have to put you on pause to
Speaker 1: talk to the congresswoman.
Speaker 2: But thanks for calling the show. What are you thinking?
Speaker 5: Real quick? Yeah, I'm gonna be real quick. U press
Speaker 5: release from Jason Crow his website Pro fights Back, Pro
Speaker 5: fight Back against Trump must usaid elimination. He's going to
Speaker 5: take the decisive action against Donald Trump and Elon Musk
Speaker 5: legal dismaniling of the agency.
Speaker 2: And what is that action?
Speaker 5: There? You go, I guess he's just okay with my
Speaker 5: tax money going to sex changes and Timbuck two.
Speaker 2: And you know what the health what do you have
Speaker 2: against tim Buck two?
Speaker 1: But here, my friend, is the beauty of this and
Speaker 1: I hope you can enjoy it. And that is is
Speaker 1: Jason Crow is clearly trying to position for a run
Speaker 1: for governor or if hicken Looper steps aside, a run
Speaker 1: for Senate. And this will be a thing to behold,
Speaker 1: because what you'll see in action, Scott, is you'll see
Speaker 1: the Democrats right now eating their own, the Democratic Party
Speaker 1: aborting itself on the abortion issue more but on identity politics, because.
Speaker 2: What do you got? What do you got?
Speaker 1: You got the Democratic Party in Colorado so high and
Speaker 1: mighty about how they're so woke, and the rest of
Speaker 1: us are all these bigots. And then look who holds
Speaker 1: all the top jobs, you know, except for Griswold, who
Speaker 1: is just so obviously incompetent. But you got all these old, boring,
Speaker 1: do nothing, accomplish nothing, white guys holding all these top
Speaker 1: jobs in the Democratic Party. And I got to tell
Speaker 1: you that I'm no political professional, but the ones I
Speaker 1: know say there is.
Speaker 2: A revolt brewing.
Speaker 1: And there are an awful lot of people of color,
Speaker 1: and awful lot of women within the Democratic Party, and
Speaker 1: awful lot of them younger who are ready to run
Speaker 1: these old white guys out of office. So Jason Crow
Speaker 1: really thinks that if Hick and Hooper steps aside. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: the Democratic Party is going to choose another middle age,
Speaker 1: older white guy. And the only reason I talk in
Speaker 1: terms of identity is that's what the Democratic Party worships.
Speaker 1: The opposite of doctor King. They worship identity politics. So
Speaker 1: Curl right now is living in this fantasy right world,
Speaker 1: in this bubble with some yes men and women telling
Speaker 1: him he's the greatest thing ever, believing he really has
Speaker 1: a chance, and we're going to enjoy this together because
Speaker 1: you know what, he should be judged on his merit,
Speaker 1: and based on his merit, he should not hold those
Speaker 1: top jobs. But the Colorado Democratic Party will not judge
Speaker 1: on merit.
Speaker 2: They judge on identity politics.
Speaker 1: And they're sick of these white guys hypocritically talking all
Speaker 1: this DEI stuff and then taking all the top jobs.
Speaker 5: Absolutely, I'm glad you're having a Bogart on because I
Speaker 5: called her office yesterday and I had a suggestion, maybe
Speaker 5: you can talk to her about US. Matt. We need
Speaker 5: to get the list of this garbage that's gone to
Speaker 5: this usaid. This list needs to be it's on the
Speaker 5: White House, yeah, dot com or whatever it is. But
Speaker 5: I FI got to the people because it's not going
Speaker 5: to go They're not going to get deach tales from
Speaker 5: MSLSD and the Wayne Street Press. But it's got to
Speaker 5: get to the people because I don't care who you are,
Speaker 5: ninety nine to so little people are going to be
Speaker 5: pissed when they see what this money, our tax money's
Speaker 5: going to.
Speaker 2: Amen, my friend, and listen.
Speaker 1: I just think on a gut level now, just from
Speaker 1: what people have heard, I think most people are saying, yeah, no,
Speaker 1: that sounds like a bunch of craziness there. And I'm
Speaker 1: sure there are some good things, but I don't think
Speaker 1: you see any broad pushback across America on Trump right
Speaker 1: now cracking down on us. Eight fascinating, fascinating editorial in
Speaker 1: the Denver Post, and I'll get some sound that ties
Speaker 1: into this editorial. Ice walks a thin line in Aurora
Speaker 1: in Denver as it searches for one hundred quote gang
Speaker 1: members but knocks on everyone's door. Wait a second, how
Speaker 1: can can you be critical of them knocking on everyone's door?
Speaker 1: How else are you going to find these people? You
Speaker 1: think they all live together in the same apartment. I mean,
Speaker 1: what do you think goes on there? And this ties
Speaker 1: into a question that nine News asked of an ICE official.
Speaker 4: This is the day the President Donald Trump's mass immigration
Speaker 4: rates came to Colorado. One goal was clearly achieved, creating
Speaker 4: fear and uncertainty and immigrant communities that deportations could happen
Speaker 4: at any time.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry, Ryan, can you check me on this? I
Speaker 1: thought they were only deporting folks here illegally.
Speaker 3: Well he won't even say that. He says without authorization.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but I mean, wait a second, that report just
Speaker 1: suggested that they're deporting folks here legally.
Speaker 8: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Well, he's insinuating and kind of blurring the lines on that.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, you are a generous man.
Speaker 4: It's not clear, however, if another objective was met, actually
Speaker 4: removing a significant number of island criminals.
Speaker 1: From the streets. What's a significant number. I know the
Speaker 1: answer to that. There's only one answer. What's a significant number?
Speaker 1: Significant number is one?
Speaker 6: One.
Speaker 1: It is immoral. It is completely unjustifiable to leave one
Speaker 1: person on the streets who's here illegally and has committed
Speaker 1: other crimes. Right, And I'm sure that anybody out there,
Speaker 1: no matter what line of work, be their reporter or
Speaker 1: anybody else, would say, yeah, if that one person was
Speaker 1: going to victimize their family. Yeah, that person should be removed.
Speaker 1: So that's the answer, even one.
Speaker 4: A goal that is widely shared by Colorado's community leaders.
Speaker 1: Total garbage, Total garbage that the Democratic Party in Colorado
Speaker 1: has ferociously opposed efforts to deport people here illegally who
Speaker 1: have not only convicted other committed other crimes. They have
Speaker 1: been convicted and they're now on probation or parole. Remember
Speaker 1: police sign that law, sign that law that makes it
Speaker 1: extraordinarily hard for probation and parole officers to cooperate with ice.
Speaker 1: So at that point they're fully exposed and it ain't pretty.
Speaker 1: They are devoted to protecting people here illegally. You've committed
Speaker 1: other crimes and are on probation. Why would any sane
Speaker 1: person want to do that? Does anybody have an answer
Speaker 1: to that?
Speaker 6: What about this category too, Dan?
Speaker 3: This one gets my dander up, and I think I'm
Speaker 3: to the right of you on this issue, and that
Speaker 3: is people who filed for asylum claims or adjudicated or refused,
Speaker 3: lost that claim and then just stick around in our
Speaker 3: country indefinitely.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Or how about the folks who have entered illegally
Speaker 1: after being deported, right, That is a crime at that
Speaker 1: that is a crime, and those folks I believe should
Speaker 1: be prosecuted as well. But the starting point, the starting
Speaker 1: point is the folks here illegally, you've committed other crimes.
Speaker 1: Because I've said it before, I'll say it again. I
Speaker 1: know it's not popular, but every person listening knows it's true.
Speaker 1: And I bet it's the same experience from everybody listening.
Speaker 1: Some of the very best people I have ever met
Speaker 1: are in this country illegally. It doesn't mean that the
Speaker 1: border should be open, it doesn't mean that should be allowed.
Speaker 2: That's just the reality.
Speaker 1: At the same time, some of the worst people to
Speaker 1: ever set foot in Colorado came into this country illegally,
Speaker 1: and Jared Poulis and the Democratic Party went out of
Speaker 1: their way to protect those people, protect those people by
Speaker 1: tying the hands of probation officers from cooperating with ICE.
Speaker 1: And I still would like to answer that question, why
Speaker 1: do you think they did that. It's obviously so societal suicidal,
Speaker 1: it's obviously so fundamentally wrong placing convicted criminals interest over
Speaker 1: those of peaceful citizens. Why do you think they did that?
Speaker 1: I'd love to get your take on that I've got
Speaker 1: my own theory. This sound gets too long, especially when
Speaker 1: I'm interrupting it, but it goes.
Speaker 2: On to get to this question.
Speaker 1: The nine News poses to an ICE official, Hey, you know,
Speaker 1: why are you knocking on every door? And the ICE
Speaker 1: official says, because people change apartments, people move apartments. We
Speaker 1: know who we're looking for, but they're not all going
Speaker 1: to sit in the same apartment. We've got to go
Speaker 1: find them in the complex. So why would the left
Speaker 1: be upset about that?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 1: It just goes back to the same kind of dishonesty
Speaker 1: from the left and their media arm. But there is
Speaker 1: a critical admission in the Denver Post editorial today that
Speaker 1: I want to get to you right out of this break.
Speaker 1: I also want to hear from you if you don't mind,
Speaker 1: are you going to honor the King Soopers picket lines
Speaker 1: in the Denver area?
Speaker 2: I am?
Speaker 1: And then Congressoman Bulbert, who's going to be on that
Speaker 1: House Oversight committee questioning lawless Mike Johnston and other lefty
Speaker 1: mayors on sanctuary City. We expect now to have her
Speaker 1: next You're on the Dan Kapla Show.
Speaker 6: And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.
Speaker 9: And believe you can't be happy without religion.
Speaker 2: Without that belief, I really believe it. I just don't
Speaker 2: see how you can be.
Speaker 9: So let's bring religion back. Let's bring God back into
Speaker 9: our lives. Yeah, and President Trump announcing it. That's same
Speaker 9: prayer breakfast. A task force on anti Christian bias, long overdue.
Speaker 9: Glad he's doing it. Let's go to the VIP line.
Speaker 2: She is a warrior.
Speaker 1: Congresswoman Lauren Bolbert, welcome back to the Dan Kapla Show,
Speaker 1: the place it all started standon.
Speaker 10: It is great to be with you.
Speaker 2: Well, thank you. These have to be particularly fun times
Speaker 2: for you. Yes.
Speaker 10: So this is incredible because we are seeing President Trump
Speaker 10: deliver immediately on promises that he made on the campaign trail. Now,
Speaker 10: obviously President Trump has been on the trail for four
Speaker 10: years now, just about and he's made many, many promises,
Speaker 10: and so there are still more to come, and it
Speaker 10: is up to Congress to codify and make into law
Speaker 10: what the work that he is doing. But he has
Speaker 10: been absolutely incredible at the work that he has done
Speaker 10: so far. And you know, I think in the House
Speaker 10: we need to even be more aggressive. I've started putting
Speaker 10: pressure on leadership to bring to the floor daily the
Speaker 10: executive orders that President Trump has been issuing and start
Speaker 10: getting actual Congressional votes on him.
Speaker 2: Love that.
Speaker 1: And now I think also President Trump continues with this success,
Speaker 1: which I expect, you may have a bigger majority, well
Speaker 1: any majority, it'd be a bigger majority, right, but you
Speaker 1: may have a bigger majority after the midterms.
Speaker 10: Well, don't believe that this next midterm will be like others. Statistically,
Speaker 10: the party that it has the White House does poorly
Speaker 10: in the midterms. But President Trump is doing just such
Speaker 10: an excellent at exposing waste fraud abuse and delivering on
Speaker 10: his promises securing our country. We're already seeing Tom Homan
Speaker 10: our borders are get to work with ICE agents and
Speaker 10: other law enforcement officers in places like Aurora and Denver.
Speaker 10: And I think that this will be a very exciting
Speaker 10: midterm election.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and this one I'm talking about.
Speaker 1: And you're right about the usual trend obviously, but I
Speaker 1: think there's been a realignment that's been forced by President Trump,
Speaker 1: and this success continues. I think it's going to turn
Speaker 1: the midterm on it said, but let me ask you
Speaker 1: a Congressmoman, the Oversight Committee, you have lawless Mike Johnston,
Speaker 1: the mayor of Denver, and other Democrat mayors coming in
Speaker 1: to try to justify and deny sanctuary city realities. And
Speaker 1: so you're going to be part of the questioning that day,
Speaker 1: Can you give us a little preview?
Speaker 10: Yes, so, I will be in the Oversight Accountability Committee
Speaker 10: hearing and Mayor Johnson has agreed to come before our
Speaker 10: committee on March fifth, and I have many questions for them.
Speaker 10: I think one of the most obvious questions is why
Speaker 10: keep and continue with the sanctuary policies that prevent local
Speaker 10: law enforcement officers from coordinating with ICE agents. We have
Speaker 10: seen Mayor Johnston kind of, you know, tiptoe around the
Speaker 10: issue and say, well, if they were going to come
Speaker 10: after actual criminal aliens, then we would do everything we
Speaker 10: could to coordinate with them. But he's not allowing them
Speaker 10: to go after anyone right now with those policies in place.
Speaker 10: And as we've heard our new Press Secretary Caroline love
Speaker 10: It and even President Trump say, if you broke our
Speaker 10: nation's laws to come here illegally, you are a criminal.
Speaker 10: And again that's not the focus that ICE has right
Speaker 10: now as a priority. But we need to quit making
Speaker 10: excuses and just allow our law enforcement offsters to do
Speaker 10: their job.
Speaker 1: Amen, And boy, I wish there was a judge there
Speaker 1: in these committee here in Congress, women who could just
Speaker 1: like the way they do in courteous crack down on
Speaker 1: these witnesses who are philipbustering and not answering the question
Speaker 1: and being deceptive because you're going to ask all the
Speaker 1: right questions. He's not going to address your question. He's
Speaker 1: going to philipbuster, he's going to throw deceptive stuff out there.
Speaker 1: And yeah, I think that's how a witness like him
Speaker 1: just avoids accountability in these things.
Speaker 10: Sure, and I have four years of experience of that
Speaker 10: personally now, having witnesses come before us, and especially those
Speaker 10: who are in political positions or are are federally employed,
Speaker 10: even there's all sorts of excuses. We've even seen this
Speaker 10: with the USAID funding and other things where they are
Speaker 10: questioned and ask where money is going and what it
Speaker 10: is being spent on, and we're given non answers. So
Speaker 10: it is up to the men who is controlling the
Speaker 10: time to do the best that we can to get
Speaker 10: those answers and ask the right questions. But it is
Speaker 10: unfortunate that they could come with non answers as well.
Speaker 1: And just pass the buck well and you do great
Speaker 1: with that. But God love you for it, because I
Speaker 1: consider myself a real good cross examiner. But you're in
Speaker 1: a much tougher scenario than I am, because I'm in
Speaker 1: a courtroom, there's a judge there, there's a jury sitting there,
Speaker 1: and in your situation, you've got a handful of minutes,
Speaker 1: no judge to really enforce the rules. You've got to
Speaker 1: control that witness all on your own without a judge's help,
Speaker 1: and that takes a lot. So God love you, and
Speaker 1: I hope you're able to pin Mike Johnston down because
Speaker 1: if you can get to the truth with him, he
Speaker 1: is indefensible.
Speaker 10: Yes, I absolutely agree, And you know, if your listeners
Speaker 10: or you have things that you want answered, specifically, send
Speaker 10: those my way and I'll be sure to incorporate that
Speaker 10: in what I have planned to discuss with him. But again, yes,
Speaker 10: we do have just a few at the peace and
Speaker 10: we're going to try to get as much information as
Speaker 10: possible so not only can we expose to Colorado into
Speaker 10: and Americans throughout the country of what's going on, but
Speaker 10: also so we could get policy right to ensure that
Speaker 10: mistakes aren't made in the future.
Speaker 2: Well, I've got a great starting point.
Speaker 1: I mean, as spokesman said yesterday, Johnson's going to say
Speaker 1: all these he calls them newcomers, unless they're coming into
Speaker 1: his house in the middle of the night, which nobody
Speaker 1: should do. But but yeah, he's going to say, hasn't
Speaker 1: hasn't made the city less safe, hasn't impacted course services.
Speaker 1: We've got to go now with that music, Congresswoman, But
Speaker 1: thank you for your time today. Keep up the good
Speaker 1: work and we'll catch you next time. Thank you so much,
Speaker 1: by thank you, Take care, Congressoman Laura Bolbert Hey.
Speaker 2: Congressman Gabe Evans joins us after the break. He's already
Speaker 2: on that star trek in DC.
Speaker 1: But he has been waived onto the Oversight Committee, so
Speaker 1: he will also have a chance to question Mike Johnston
Speaker 1: and other sanctuary city mayors. Gave Evans next on The
Speaker 1: Dan Kapla Show.
