00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:03.879
<v Speaker 1>This is Dan Kaplis and welcome to today's online podcast edition

<v Speaker 1>and to subscribe, download and listen to the show every

5
00:00:11.679 --> 00:00:16.320
<v Speaker 1>single day on your favorite podcast platform. Oh thank you,

6
00:00:16.399 --> 00:00:19.679
<v Speaker 1>Colorado Democratic Party. You make it so easy, the gift

7
00:00:19.679 --> 00:00:23.160
<v Speaker 1>that keeps on giving, except for all these laws you pass.

8
00:00:23.239 --> 00:00:27.879
<v Speaker 1>But this is fun. It just helps us get into

9
00:00:27.960 --> 00:00:31.120
<v Speaker 1>the mind of the left. Right. It's fresh. Nobody saw

10
00:00:31.160 --> 00:00:33.840
<v Speaker 1>this one coming. We're going to play some sound from

11
00:00:34.240 --> 00:00:38.880
<v Speaker 1>the Colorado State House rep from a District eleven Boulder.

12
00:00:39.119 --> 00:00:43.359
<v Speaker 1>Her name is Representative Karen McCormick. So before we play

13
00:00:43.399 --> 00:00:46.759
<v Speaker 1>this sound, though, keep in mind a couple of things please.

14
00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:50.759
<v Speaker 1>She is also primary sponsor of a bill called Gender

15
00:00:50.880 --> 00:00:55.399
<v Speaker 1>Identity Certificate of Death that makes it a crime to

16
00:00:55.560 --> 00:01:00.840
<v Speaker 1>not lie on a public record. It would force Colorado

17
00:01:01.359 --> 00:01:05.560
<v Speaker 1>health officials to lie on a public record and to

18
00:01:05.719 --> 00:01:08.200
<v Speaker 1>say that that male laying there in front of them

19
00:01:08.239 --> 00:01:12.480
<v Speaker 1>on the slab, God rest his soul is actually a female.

20
00:01:13.159 --> 00:01:16.599
<v Speaker 1>And so we'll get into the perils of that and

21
00:01:17.000 --> 00:01:20.799
<v Speaker 1>why why the left would even be pursuing this when

22
00:01:21.400 --> 00:01:24.040
<v Speaker 1>if they had some sincere concern here. There's such an

23
00:01:24.120 --> 00:01:26.760
<v Speaker 1>easy other fix. But we'll get to all that. But

24
00:01:26.840 --> 00:01:28.799
<v Speaker 1>this sound you're gonna thoroughly enjoy if you're a pro

25
00:01:28.840 --> 00:01:32.400
<v Speaker 1>life like me, Because it's a Democrat, the same one

26
00:01:32.439 --> 00:01:37.319
<v Speaker 1>sponsoring this bill who's implicitly acknowledging the undeniable medical fact

27
00:01:38.000 --> 00:01:40.359
<v Speaker 1>that all of these kids who are killed through abortion

28
00:01:40.599 --> 00:01:43.560
<v Speaker 1>are in fact kids, they are in fact living humans.

29
00:01:43.640 --> 00:01:47.680
<v Speaker 2>Cut one, Please, we know, even from fetal development perspective,

30
00:01:47.760 --> 00:01:50.640
<v Speaker 2>that sex is defined in the first trimester of pregnancy,

31
00:01:51.159 --> 00:01:55.959
<v Speaker 2>whereas the beginnings of the sense of gender identity start

32
00:01:56.079 --> 00:02:00.319
<v Speaker 2>in the second trimester of pregnancy. So certainly often these

33
00:02:00.359 --> 00:02:02.879
<v Speaker 2>two things match up, but often they don't.

34
00:02:03.760 --> 00:02:06.920
<v Speaker 1>Okay, Yeah, so if you've got your sense of gender

35
00:02:06.959 --> 00:02:10.719
<v Speaker 1>identity in this second trimester, it's just confirmation that you're

36
00:02:10.759 --> 00:02:14.919
<v Speaker 1>a living human, and you know, are getting this sense

37
00:02:14.960 --> 00:02:16.840
<v Speaker 1>that Okay, I know I got those parts there, but

38
00:02:16.879 --> 00:02:20.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm really not, you know, that gender. Right, So that's

39
00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:23.520
<v Speaker 1>her goofy theory when it comes to, oh, yeah, these

40
00:02:23.599 --> 00:02:26.639
<v Speaker 1>kids are deciding before they're born that they're really the

41
00:02:26.639 --> 00:02:30.840
<v Speaker 1>opposite sex. But she's absolutely correct, and that these are kids,

42
00:02:30.919 --> 00:02:35.599
<v Speaker 1>these are living humans, and so absolutely fascinating. Now, let's

43
00:02:35.599 --> 00:02:39.199
<v Speaker 1>get back to this bill that would require Colorado Health's

44
00:02:39.240 --> 00:02:42.599
<v Speaker 1>officials to lie. What's really behind this? I mean, it's

45
00:02:42.599 --> 00:02:46.280
<v Speaker 1>so goofy on its faith. Right. If somebody was to say, okay, Ryan,

46
00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:49.960
<v Speaker 1>now the reason I want this bill is because I

47
00:02:50.080 --> 00:02:54.520
<v Speaker 1>want to respect the wishes and the self identification of

48
00:02:54.639 --> 00:02:57.479
<v Speaker 1>the deceased. You've got to have a hurt Ryan. Well

49
00:02:57.520 --> 00:03:00.800
<v Speaker 1>wait a second, isn't the answer to that? Well, then

50
00:03:00.840 --> 00:03:03.240
<v Speaker 1>why don't you propose a bill that would just add

51
00:03:03.240 --> 00:03:07.319
<v Speaker 1>a separate box and just have a separate box that

52
00:03:07.439 --> 00:03:12.879
<v Speaker 1>says self identification, but you keep the sex box and

53
00:03:12.919 --> 00:03:16.000
<v Speaker 1>it is worded sex on Colorado death certificates, you keep

54
00:03:16.039 --> 00:03:20.400
<v Speaker 1>the sex box, right honest. And if they and I'm

55
00:03:20.439 --> 00:03:22.240
<v Speaker 1>not saying we should add a separate box, but if

56
00:03:22.240 --> 00:03:25.400
<v Speaker 1>they really, if that was their true motive to just

57
00:03:25.560 --> 00:03:28.960
<v Speaker 1>respect the wishes of the deceased, why wouldn't the bill say,

58
00:03:29.000 --> 00:03:31.919
<v Speaker 1>add a separate box for self identification.

59
00:03:31.439 --> 00:03:33.120
<v Speaker 3>And not only that, that might be a fair starting

60
00:03:33.120 --> 00:03:36.120
<v Speaker 3>point for negotiations on a fair compromise that would at

61
00:03:36.199 --> 00:03:41.280
<v Speaker 3>least validate acknowledge the gender identity of a trans person without,

62
00:03:41.319 --> 00:03:44.439
<v Speaker 3>like you said, foraging over into the lying about the

63
00:03:44.479 --> 00:03:45.560
<v Speaker 3>scientific part of it.

64
00:03:45.879 --> 00:03:48.840
<v Speaker 1>But that's not what the left wants. The left of

65
00:03:48.960 --> 00:03:52.599
<v Speaker 1>the left wants you to be forced, under penalty of

66
00:03:52.719 --> 00:03:58.000
<v Speaker 1>criminal prosecution, to buy the lie. That's what the left wants.

67
00:03:58.919 --> 00:04:02.199
<v Speaker 1>You know. They don't want tolerance, they want obedience. You

68
00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:05.120
<v Speaker 1>have to buy the lie. You have to sign your

69
00:04:05.199 --> 00:04:09.439
<v Speaker 1>name to the lie under penalty of criminal prosecution. This

70
00:04:09.560 --> 00:04:12.319
<v Speaker 1>bill is such a confirmation of what the left is

71
00:04:12.439 --> 00:04:16.600
<v Speaker 1>really after A five five or zero five, A two

72
00:04:16.639 --> 00:04:19.079
<v Speaker 1>five five takes DA N five seven, seven through nine.

73
00:04:19.160 --> 00:04:21.839
<v Speaker 1>Let's go out to beautiful Aurora, Colorado'll talk to Brent.

74
00:04:22.439 --> 00:04:24.480
<v Speaker 1>You're on the Dan Caplis. Show how you doing, Brent.

75
00:04:25.319 --> 00:04:26.079
<v Speaker 4>I'm doing great.

76
00:04:26.240 --> 00:04:26.439
<v Speaker 1>You know.

77
00:04:26.560 --> 00:04:31.279
<v Speaker 4>The biggest thing I have with all this gender identity is,

78
00:04:31.800 --> 00:04:35.600
<v Speaker 4>say you go to a crime scene. Okay, you get DNA,

79
00:04:36.600 --> 00:04:38.800
<v Speaker 4>it's going to be male or female regards to how

80
00:04:38.839 --> 00:04:40.439
<v Speaker 4>somebody identifies.

81
00:04:41.199 --> 00:04:44.319
<v Speaker 1>And that's how you put that on a form. Hardon me,

82
00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:46.959
<v Speaker 1>don't put that on a form. I'm joking, But go ahead.

83
00:04:47.040 --> 00:04:49.519
<v Speaker 1>You're pointing out very well the absurdity of all this.

84
00:04:50.519 --> 00:04:54.160
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and you know, one hundred years from now, an

85
00:04:54.199 --> 00:04:59.360
<v Speaker 4>archaeologist goes in and exumes a body that is at

86
00:04:59.399 --> 00:05:01.720
<v Speaker 4>some place, then they're going to do DNA, and it's

87
00:05:01.720 --> 00:05:04.120
<v Speaker 4>going to be male or females, not what somebody identified

88
00:05:04.160 --> 00:05:04.560
<v Speaker 4>a right.

89
00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:08.480
<v Speaker 1>So why do you think they're so hell bent on this,

90
00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:14.800
<v Speaker 1>on forcing people to buy the lie.

91
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:18.920
<v Speaker 4>I think they're wanting to people to buy it a

92
00:05:18.920 --> 00:05:22.519
<v Speaker 4>lot to get in line with their ideology. And you're

93
00:05:22.560 --> 00:05:23.279
<v Speaker 4>not going to do it.

94
00:05:23.759 --> 00:05:26.279
<v Speaker 1>No, and good for you, and America sent an election

95
00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:28.199
<v Speaker 1>day it wouldn't do it. Brent, thank you for the call.

96
00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:31.160
<v Speaker 1>And I believe this. I'm not talking about Representative McCormick.

97
00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:32.720
<v Speaker 1>I'd love to have her on and just talk to

98
00:05:32.759 --> 00:05:35.879
<v Speaker 1>her as an individual about what's driving her. But when

99
00:05:35.879 --> 00:05:37.800
<v Speaker 1>you talk about the left as a whole Ryan, the

100
00:05:37.839 --> 00:05:40.439
<v Speaker 1>only thing that makes any sense to me as to

101
00:05:40.480 --> 00:05:43.920
<v Speaker 1>why the left would make this their holy grail, second

102
00:05:44.000 --> 00:05:47.720
<v Speaker 1>only to abortion. You have to buy the lie, you

103
00:05:47.800 --> 00:05:50.759
<v Speaker 1>have to, under a threat of banishment from civil society,

104
00:05:51.079 --> 00:05:54.040
<v Speaker 1>be willing to say that man's really a woman. Is that.

105
00:05:54.439 --> 00:05:57.600
<v Speaker 1>It's just that the left knows that they have to

106
00:05:57.600 --> 00:05:59.360
<v Speaker 1>do a couple of things to be able to prevail

107
00:05:59.360 --> 00:06:03.720
<v Speaker 1>in America. They have to intimidate people into bending the

108
00:06:03.759 --> 00:06:08.720
<v Speaker 1>knee and into a green with the left in order

109
00:06:08.759 --> 00:06:10.439
<v Speaker 1>for the left to prevail, they have to get people

110
00:06:10.480 --> 00:06:14.680
<v Speaker 1>to set aside their intellectual beliefs, set aside their religious

111
00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:18.879
<v Speaker 1>beliefs for the left to prevail. So this whole trans thing,

112
00:06:19.600 --> 00:06:22.199
<v Speaker 1>which never made any sense politically for the left right

113
00:06:22.240 --> 00:06:24.959
<v Speaker 1>because it's such a relatively small community. One of the

114
00:06:25.000 --> 00:06:27.600
<v Speaker 1>greatest people I've ever met my entire life is trans.

115
00:06:27.920 --> 00:06:32.240
<v Speaker 1>But it's still a very small community, and so it

116
00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:34.879
<v Speaker 1>never made any sense to me that they would go

117
00:06:35.040 --> 00:06:38.000
<v Speaker 1>all in on that unless there was a broader goal.

118
00:06:38.040 --> 00:06:40.800
<v Speaker 1>And I think this bill that we see the Democrats

119
00:06:40.800 --> 00:06:44.279
<v Speaker 1>pushing in Colorado right now just confirms that, right, because

120
00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:47.480
<v Speaker 1>if they really wanted to just acknowledge the feelings of

121
00:06:47.519 --> 00:06:52.600
<v Speaker 1>the deceased, they just add an extra box self identification and.

122
00:06:52.600 --> 00:06:55.879
<v Speaker 3>To kind of square the circle. Here, Dan, a very

123
00:06:55.879 --> 00:06:59.000
<v Speaker 3>interesting text of formulating a question for you and for

124
00:06:59.040 --> 00:06:59.920
<v Speaker 3>everybody out there.

125
00:07:00.360 --> 00:07:01.560
<v Speaker 1>So did anyone ask this.

126
00:07:01.480 --> 00:07:04.959
<v Speaker 3>Democrat introducing this ludicrous bill if it's okay to abort

127
00:07:05.000 --> 00:07:06.360
<v Speaker 3>a trans baby?

128
00:07:08.079 --> 00:07:10.199
<v Speaker 1>What a great point. I love our listeners. How about

129
00:07:10.240 --> 00:07:13.399
<v Speaker 1>this one taking both of us to task, which we

130
00:07:13.560 --> 00:07:16.879
<v Speaker 1>greatly appreciate. And I wish this person would call the

131
00:07:16.920 --> 00:07:20.160
<v Speaker 1>show as well. It's so well worded, Dan and Ryan.

132
00:07:20.199 --> 00:07:24.040
<v Speaker 1>The consensus always watch out for that word, right, consensus

133
00:07:24.040 --> 00:07:27.120
<v Speaker 1>among whom is that transgender people are born that way,

134
00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:30.920
<v Speaker 1>and frankly, as I am transgendered, says the Texter, I

135
00:07:31.000 --> 00:07:33.639
<v Speaker 1>know I was born the way I am, And you

136
00:07:33.680 --> 00:07:37.279
<v Speaker 1>are incorrect on the science because biology is more complex

137
00:07:37.319 --> 00:07:41.639
<v Speaker 1>and xx or x y. Your contention is that being

138
00:07:41.720 --> 00:07:45.480
<v Speaker 1>transgendered is a learned experience, and it is not. It

139
00:07:45.560 --> 00:07:48.360
<v Speaker 1>is as predetermined as the color of your eyes. But

140
00:07:48.439 --> 00:07:51.199
<v Speaker 1>I cannot expect someone who is ignorant of it to

141
00:07:51.399 --> 00:07:55.639
<v Speaker 1>understand it. I agree on the abortion aspect of your commentary,

142
00:07:55.720 --> 00:07:59.279
<v Speaker 1>though that from Kimberly. A couple of things there. First,

143
00:07:59.439 --> 00:08:03.040
<v Speaker 1>Kimberly and the consensus, I'd love to see that, because

144
00:08:03.120 --> 00:08:08.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm not seeing that right now. And then you say

145
00:08:08.160 --> 00:08:12.360
<v Speaker 1>that my premise is that this identifying as the opposite

146
00:08:12.399 --> 00:08:16.079
<v Speaker 1>sex is a learned experience. I'm not saying that, Kimberly.

147
00:08:16.600 --> 00:08:19.600
<v Speaker 1>All I'm saying is that no matter where it comes from,

148
00:08:19.639 --> 00:08:22.759
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't change the truth that that person is what

149
00:08:22.800 --> 00:08:26.120
<v Speaker 1>their parts say they are when it comes to gender.

150
00:08:26.600 --> 00:08:29.040
<v Speaker 1>And then if that person wants to say what I

151
00:08:29.040 --> 00:08:32.840
<v Speaker 1>identify as the opposite, what do I care, knock yourself out,

152
00:08:32.919 --> 00:08:36.600
<v Speaker 1>but don't force other people to lie about it, and

153
00:08:36.720 --> 00:08:39.639
<v Speaker 1>don't claim a right to go into a girl's bathroom

154
00:08:39.759 --> 00:08:44.120
<v Speaker 1>or shower or to play a girl's sports and leave

155
00:08:44.200 --> 00:08:47.240
<v Speaker 1>the kids alone. Don't be recruiting the kids. That's all

156
00:08:47.279 --> 00:08:51.639
<v Speaker 1>I'm saying. Anything wrong with that, Ryan, any hole in

157
00:08:51.679 --> 00:08:55.480
<v Speaker 1>that morally, intellectually, analytically, logically, No.

158
00:08:55.600 --> 00:08:58.080
<v Speaker 3>But even what Kimberly says there, and I know she's

159
00:08:58.120 --> 00:09:01.080
<v Speaker 3>a regular listener, it underscoes or's the point of the

160
00:09:01.120 --> 00:09:02.080
<v Speaker 3>pro life position.

161
00:09:02.200 --> 00:09:03.480
<v Speaker 1>If you believe that the.

162
00:09:03.840 --> 00:09:07.320
<v Speaker 3>Person inside, no matter what they are xxx y trans what,

163
00:09:07.720 --> 00:09:12.240
<v Speaker 3>it's a living human being. Uh oh, left, how do

164
00:09:12.320 --> 00:09:16.000
<v Speaker 3>you justify aborting that living woman being?

165
00:09:16.039 --> 00:09:18.799
<v Speaker 1>At that point? You know what's really interesting as you

166
00:09:18.840 --> 00:09:20.919
<v Speaker 1>watch this over the years, I consider my mom one

167
00:09:20.960 --> 00:09:24.399
<v Speaker 1>of the founders of the pro life movement. But over

168
00:09:24.440 --> 00:09:26.960
<v Speaker 1>the years you've seen the argument on the left transition

169
00:09:27.200 --> 00:09:29.679
<v Speaker 1>right from the big lie in the beginning that that's

170
00:09:29.720 --> 00:09:32.360
<v Speaker 1>not a human, that's a clump of tissue to really

171
00:09:32.399 --> 00:09:34.799
<v Speaker 1>what I think is more mainstream on the left right now,

172
00:09:34.840 --> 00:09:37.919
<v Speaker 1>which is, oh, yeah, that's a baby, but we have

173
00:09:37.960 --> 00:09:39.879
<v Speaker 1>a right to kill it. I mean, that's really what

174
00:09:39.919 --> 00:09:42.679
<v Speaker 1>the left's argument has come down to and didn't Bill

175
00:09:42.759 --> 00:09:44.799
<v Speaker 1>Maher have a great riff on that. Maybe you could

176
00:09:44.799 --> 00:09:47.399
<v Speaker 1>pull that up during the Brads And now you are AI,

177
00:09:47.960 --> 00:09:49.440
<v Speaker 1>You're on the Dan Caplas Show.

178
00:09:56.080 --> 00:09:58.440
<v Speaker 3>And now back to the Dan Kapliss Show podcast.

179
00:10:00.120 --> 00:10:03.879
<v Speaker 1>They think it's murder and it kind of is. I'm

180
00:10:03.919 --> 00:10:07.840
<v Speaker 1>just okay with that. I am. I mean, there's eight

181
00:10:07.879 --> 00:10:10.840
<v Speaker 1>billion people in the world. I'm sorry, we won't miss you.

182
00:10:11.759 --> 00:10:18.360
<v Speaker 1>That's my position on the what not your position if

183
00:10:18.399 --> 00:10:22.600
<v Speaker 1>your pro choice fascinating. You know, Bill Maher And one

184
00:10:22.600 --> 00:10:24.759
<v Speaker 1>of the most memorable interviews I've had on this show

185
00:10:24.840 --> 00:10:27.480
<v Speaker 1>is Bill Maher, and we really went at it and

186
00:10:27.480 --> 00:10:31.480
<v Speaker 1>then he ended up hanging up. But he seems Ryan

187
00:10:31.519 --> 00:10:33.279
<v Speaker 1>at this point, and he still says some things that

188
00:10:33.279 --> 00:10:38.000
<v Speaker 1>aren't true, but he seems devoted to just this radical honesty, right,

189
00:10:38.720 --> 00:10:42.559
<v Speaker 1>and so I think he's just become so disgusted by

190
00:10:42.679 --> 00:10:45.600
<v Speaker 1>the blatant dishonesty of the left, such as on this

191
00:10:45.759 --> 00:10:50.120
<v Speaker 1>transgender stuff. Having under threat of criminal prosecution in the

192
00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:53.399
<v Speaker 1>case of the New Colorado Bill or banishment from society,

193
00:10:53.600 --> 00:10:57.360
<v Speaker 1>you have to then lie and say that somebody who's

194
00:10:57.399 --> 00:11:01.080
<v Speaker 1>a male is really a female. But he just spoke

195
00:11:01.159 --> 00:11:04.440
<v Speaker 1>the truth there, right, And that is I mean, so

196
00:11:04.519 --> 00:11:05.960
<v Speaker 1>many on the left now, and I can tell you

197
00:11:06.039 --> 00:11:08.639
<v Speaker 1>just from everything I read of what they write, etc.

198
00:11:09.759 --> 00:11:13.879
<v Speaker 1>So many in the pro abortion movement they just absolutely

199
00:11:13.879 --> 00:11:18.639
<v Speaker 1>recognize the undeniable truth that, yeah, you're killing a child,

200
00:11:18.759 --> 00:11:22.600
<v Speaker 1>you're killing a living human, and they just say that's okay.

201
00:11:23.519 --> 00:11:26.039
<v Speaker 1>And so that's one of the reasons I'm so confident

202
00:11:26.440 --> 00:11:28.480
<v Speaker 1>that the arc is toward life. And we see that

203
00:11:28.519 --> 00:11:31.080
<v Speaker 1>in tangible ways, right, including the fall of Dobbs, in

204
00:11:31.120 --> 00:11:35.000
<v Speaker 1>the election of Trump, etc. But yeah, is simply because

205
00:11:35.960 --> 00:11:39.080
<v Speaker 1>underlying it, the science is undeniable. So many people have

206
00:11:39.120 --> 00:11:42.159
<v Speaker 1>seen altarsounds. Now the left knows it can't really get

207
00:11:42.159 --> 00:11:44.960
<v Speaker 1>away with that old argument that it's a clump of tissue.

208
00:11:45.039 --> 00:11:47.320
<v Speaker 1>I mean, right, have you ever had how many of

209
00:11:47.320 --> 00:11:48.919
<v Speaker 1>your buddies come up to you and say, hey, man,

210
00:11:49.000 --> 00:11:51.919
<v Speaker 1>look at this picture of my fetus. No, I mean

211
00:11:52.000 --> 00:11:53.679
<v Speaker 1>all of us. As soon as we got that first

212
00:11:53.679 --> 00:11:55.320
<v Speaker 1>altar sound, we're running out and say hey, look at

213
00:11:55.320 --> 00:11:55.840
<v Speaker 1>my baby.

214
00:11:55.960 --> 00:11:56.159
<v Speaker 4>Right.

215
00:11:56.320 --> 00:12:00.639
<v Speaker 1>So it's all falling apart for the pro death left.

216
00:12:00.759 --> 00:12:03.159
<v Speaker 3>And a couple of things, Dan, why you're right and

217
00:12:03.200 --> 00:12:06.480
<v Speaker 3>why the momentum is moving in that direction, and especially

218
00:12:06.519 --> 00:12:09.960
<v Speaker 3>among gen Z's, and it's because of the science I

219
00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:12.559
<v Speaker 3>think that they're talking about, and hopefully it is. But

220
00:12:12.919 --> 00:12:14.720
<v Speaker 3>there's a couple of points we made here the left.

221
00:12:14.840 --> 00:12:18.799
<v Speaker 3>If you notice, Dan, they rarely use the word abortion anymore.

222
00:12:18.879 --> 00:12:20.200
<v Speaker 3>They've run away from.

223
00:12:20.080 --> 00:12:22.080
<v Speaker 1>It, so they don't think productive rights. There you go.

224
00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:25.399
<v Speaker 3>And the other part is how many other leftists, let's

225
00:12:25.440 --> 00:12:29.039
<v Speaker 3>get Bill Maher some credit here, are fundamentally honest about

226
00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:32.320
<v Speaker 3>the position he was. He said, look, if your pro choice,

227
00:12:32.440 --> 00:12:33.519
<v Speaker 3>isn't that what you believe?

228
00:12:33.720 --> 00:12:37.360
<v Speaker 1>And the answer is yes, you know, well, well I obviously,

229
00:12:37.600 --> 00:12:39.440
<v Speaker 1>and we've talked about it before. They won't use the

230
00:12:39.440 --> 00:12:42.720
<v Speaker 1>word abortion because everybody knows right now that's wrong. And

231
00:12:42.799 --> 00:12:44.759
<v Speaker 1>so these are the same folks if they've been alive

232
00:12:44.759 --> 00:12:49.240
<v Speaker 1>in the eighteen Oh no, no, you can't say slavery.

233
00:12:49.360 --> 00:12:52.360
<v Speaker 1>It has to be farmer's rights. You know, it has

234
00:12:52.440 --> 00:12:56.799
<v Speaker 1>to be you know, plantation owner's rights. You can't say slavery. Right,

235
00:12:56.799 --> 00:12:59.159
<v Speaker 1>it's the same idea. Hey. By the way, the reason

236
00:12:59.159 --> 00:13:02.639
<v Speaker 1>we're talking about this today, other than it's the number

237
00:13:02.639 --> 00:13:06.039
<v Speaker 1>one civil rights issue in the world today, is because

238
00:13:06.039 --> 00:13:08.279
<v Speaker 1>we've got this state rep out of Boulder. We're trying

239
00:13:08.320 --> 00:13:10.559
<v Speaker 1>to get her on I think she's been on before.

240
00:13:10.679 --> 00:13:15.000
<v Speaker 1>You don't think so, right, But Representative Karen McCormick from

241
00:13:15.600 --> 00:13:19.679
<v Speaker 1>House District eleven, who I think didn't realize she was

242
00:13:19.720 --> 00:13:22.759
<v Speaker 1>supporting the pro life movement when she said this cut

243
00:13:22.759 --> 00:13:23.279
<v Speaker 1>one place.

244
00:13:27.960 --> 00:13:31.279
<v Speaker 2>Well, we know, even from fetal development perspective, that sex

245
00:13:31.399 --> 00:13:36.279
<v Speaker 2>is defined in the first trimester of pregnancy, whereas the

246
00:13:36.320 --> 00:13:39.279
<v Speaker 2>beginnings of the sense of gender identity start in the

247
00:13:39.320 --> 00:13:44.080
<v Speaker 2>second trimester of pregnancy. So certainly often these two things

248
00:13:44.159 --> 00:13:45.919
<v Speaker 2>match up, but often they don't.

249
00:13:47.080 --> 00:13:49.879
<v Speaker 1>Well, the only way the sense of gender identity can

250
00:13:49.919 --> 00:13:52.240
<v Speaker 1>start in the second trimester is if you're a living

251
00:13:52.320 --> 00:13:56.200
<v Speaker 1>human right, And so thank you for that, Representative. And

252
00:13:56.279 --> 00:13:58.279
<v Speaker 1>I don't know where she's at on the life issue.

253
00:13:58.320 --> 00:14:01.039
<v Speaker 1>I assume just because she's an elected Democrat that she's

254
00:14:01.120 --> 00:14:03.879
<v Speaker 1>rapidly pro abortion, but maybe I'm wrong on that. The

255
00:14:03.960 --> 00:14:06.639
<v Speaker 1>other point though, this idea that wait a second, these

256
00:14:06.720 --> 00:14:10.000
<v Speaker 1>kids are deciding before they're born that they're really not

257
00:14:10.279 --> 00:14:14.039
<v Speaker 1>what they are now. I would love to hear her

258
00:14:14.080 --> 00:14:16.919
<v Speaker 1>science behind that, because you can be sure it does

259
00:14:16.960 --> 00:14:20.600
<v Speaker 1>not exist. But then this ties into this bill that

260
00:14:20.639 --> 00:14:25.159
<v Speaker 1>she's pushing. She's a main sponsor of called gender identity

261
00:14:25.240 --> 00:14:28.320
<v Speaker 1>Certificate of death that as I read the bill, and

262
00:14:28.360 --> 00:14:30.080
<v Speaker 1>she's welcome to come on and tell me I'm missing

263
00:14:30.120 --> 00:14:36.960
<v Speaker 1>something would would force a state medical officer, under threat

264
00:14:37.000 --> 00:14:41.440
<v Speaker 1>of criminal prosecution, to lie on official documents. If they've

265
00:14:41.440 --> 00:14:43.759
<v Speaker 1>got a body in front of them and it is

266
00:14:43.919 --> 00:14:46.559
<v Speaker 1>male and it has all the male parts, they would

267
00:14:46.639 --> 00:14:50.559
<v Speaker 1>be forced to write down as sex female, as long

268
00:14:50.600 --> 00:14:53.039
<v Speaker 1>as that person had left those instructions behind. And as

269
00:14:53.039 --> 00:14:55.600
<v Speaker 1>I read the bill, even if that person had not

270
00:14:55.720 --> 00:15:01.000
<v Speaker 1>left those instructions behind, if another appropriate person and then

271
00:15:01.039 --> 00:15:03.440
<v Speaker 1>the bill identifies who that would be says, oh no,

272
00:15:03.639 --> 00:15:07.039
<v Speaker 1>that's a female, the state official would still have to

273
00:15:07.120 --> 00:15:10.039
<v Speaker 1>lie on the form under threat of criminal prosecution, at

274
00:15:10.080 --> 00:15:12.519
<v Speaker 1>least as I read that bill. And here's here's my

275
00:15:12.720 --> 00:15:17.039
<v Speaker 1>even bigger point. If this was really just about sensitivity

276
00:15:17.080 --> 00:15:20.799
<v Speaker 1>to the dearly departed, and if they identified as female

277
00:15:20.879 --> 00:15:24.360
<v Speaker 1>even though they were male, then the fix here wouldn't

278
00:15:24.360 --> 00:15:26.360
<v Speaker 1>be to force people to lie in a state form.

279
00:15:26.440 --> 00:15:29.279
<v Speaker 1>The fix would be a separate box where they could

280
00:15:29.279 --> 00:15:34.039
<v Speaker 1>write down self identification. Right, So why aren't they introducing

281
00:15:34.039 --> 00:15:38.000
<v Speaker 1>a bill that says that? What's your answer to that?

282

283
00:15:40.559 --> 00:15:47.240

284
00:15:47.279 --> 00:15:50.039
<v Speaker 1>to clarify something, Dan, with our last comment regarding abortion

285
00:15:50.120 --> 00:15:54.840
<v Speaker 1>and gender identity, Mountain grandparents are being completely sarcastic, using

286
00:15:54.879 --> 00:15:58.279
<v Speaker 1>the current woke vernaculars such as inseminated person. We are

287
00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:00.600
<v Speaker 1>truly amazed at the idiocy that were so hard to

288
00:16:00.600 --> 00:16:04.399
<v Speaker 1>convince so many without the slightest awareness of their own contradictions.

289
00:16:04.840 --> 00:16:08.360
<v Speaker 1>Mountain Grandparents, we can assure you every listener knew that

290
00:16:08.399 --> 00:16:10.919
<v Speaker 1>you were being sarcastic, but we have cleared it up

291
00:16:11.320 --> 00:16:15.879
<v Speaker 1>in case somebody missed it. Dan, I missed the news

292
00:16:15.919 --> 00:16:19.879
<v Speaker 1>of the discovery of the trans chromosome, sent with invisible ink.

293
00:16:20.600 --> 00:16:23.919
<v Speaker 1>You gotta love our listeners. Got to love our listeners

294
00:16:23.919 --> 00:16:26.080
<v Speaker 1>so and by the way, sometimes we get people sending

295
00:16:26.159 --> 00:16:28.279
<v Speaker 1>us a links the links says some Texters are we

296
00:16:28.360 --> 00:16:31.600
<v Speaker 1>can't take those because the text are off the iHeart

297
00:16:31.639 --> 00:16:36.200
<v Speaker 1>system and they wisely do not accept links. Dan, did

298
00:16:36.200 --> 00:16:39.120
<v Speaker 1>anyone ask this democrat introducing this ludicrous bill if it's

299
00:16:39.120 --> 00:16:42.799
<v Speaker 1>okay to abort a trans baby? Going to Ryan's earlier point,

300
00:16:43.600 --> 00:16:45.720
<v Speaker 1>I would love to be able to ask a Democrat

301
00:16:45.759 --> 00:16:49.639
<v Speaker 1>that question, and hopefully this representative will join us but

302
00:16:49.720 --> 00:16:51.320
<v Speaker 1>what do you think their answer would be. I think

303
00:16:51.360 --> 00:16:54.200
<v Speaker 1>we both know what their answer would be, right, I

304
00:16:54.200 --> 00:16:57.039
<v Speaker 1>don't know what answered it could be, dan oh, because

305
00:16:57.120 --> 00:16:59.679
<v Speaker 1>it's the same as their answer to everything else, and right,

306
00:17:00.039 --> 00:17:03.639
<v Speaker 1>every debate, everything else. Do you accept any limits whatsoever

307
00:17:03.799 --> 00:17:07.519
<v Speaker 1>on abortion timing, reason, et cetera. They always defer to

308
00:17:08.119 --> 00:17:11.119
<v Speaker 1>it's up to the mother, right, just like California, where

309
00:17:11.200 --> 00:17:14.319
<v Speaker 1>it's a capital offense, it's it's capital murder in California.

310
00:17:14.400 --> 00:17:17.599
<v Speaker 1>Let's say that you've got a mom and she's walking

311
00:17:17.720 --> 00:17:21.480
<v Speaker 1>out of an office where she's just picked up a check.

312
00:17:21.640 --> 00:17:24.680
<v Speaker 1>This is a real life case, and somebody punches her

313
00:17:24.720 --> 00:17:26.640
<v Speaker 1>in the stomach trying to steal her purse. They don't

314
00:17:26.680 --> 00:17:29.799
<v Speaker 1>know she's pregnant, she's two weeks pregnant, and they kill

315
00:17:29.839 --> 00:17:33.359
<v Speaker 1>her unborn child. That person is then guilty of capital

316
00:17:33.440 --> 00:17:39.240
<v Speaker 1>murder in California. But California Democrats have made sure it's

317
00:17:39.319 --> 00:17:42.960
<v Speaker 1>law that that baby can be killed moments before delivery

318
00:17:43.000 --> 00:17:46.240
<v Speaker 1>at full term. So how do you reconcile those two?

319
00:17:47.039 --> 00:17:48.519
<v Speaker 1>And by the way, there's somebody who did a lot

320
00:17:48.559 --> 00:17:50.839
<v Speaker 1>of jail time in that first example. That's that's a

321
00:17:50.839 --> 00:17:51.440
<v Speaker 1>true case.

322
00:17:53.200 --> 00:17:57.519
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's a moral dilemma, isn't it, Dan, No, No,

323
00:17:57.839 --> 00:18:00.440
<v Speaker 3>For them, it's it's right, right, right.

324
00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:03.960
<v Speaker 1>But there's no moral dilemma. It's the clearest thing on

325
00:18:04.000 --> 00:18:07.000
<v Speaker 1>the planet when it comes to right and wrong, So

326
00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:09.200
<v Speaker 1>there is no dilemma. I understand that a lot of

327
00:18:09.599 --> 00:18:14.880
<v Speaker 1>women find themselves in very challenging situations with an unintended pregnancy,

328
00:18:14.920 --> 00:18:17.480
<v Speaker 1>et cetera, but it doesn't chase the fact that is

329
00:18:17.559 --> 00:18:22.240
<v Speaker 1>a living human who the Democrats say you can kill

330
00:18:22.319 --> 00:18:25.000
<v Speaker 1>until birth, and that's fundamentally wrong. You're on the Dan cap.

331
00:18:31.599 --> 00:18:33.960
<v Speaker 3>You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.

332
00:18:35.119 --> 00:18:37.599
<v Speaker 1>Hey, one of our favorites coming up. Aaron Lee will

333
00:18:37.640 --> 00:18:42.079
<v Speaker 1>join us. Erin for parental Rights and executive director Protect

334
00:18:42.200 --> 00:18:45.559
<v Speaker 1>Kids Colorado. Erin Welcome back to the Dan Caplis Show.

335
00:18:46.519 --> 00:18:48.079
<v Speaker 5>Thank Dan, thanks for having me back.

336
00:18:48.960 --> 00:18:52.480
<v Speaker 1>Well, I saw your tweet this morning and it's on

337
00:18:52.559 --> 00:18:54.799
<v Speaker 1>a story that we've been covering at links, so I

338
00:18:54.839 --> 00:18:56.839
<v Speaker 1>wanted to get you on and get your take. But

339
00:18:57.680 --> 00:18:59.799
<v Speaker 1>for the folks who just joined us, let's tee up

340
00:18:59.799 --> 00:19:03.359
<v Speaker 1>that sound first. This is a Boulder Statehouse Rep. Karen

341
00:19:03.599 --> 00:19:04.640
<v Speaker 1>McCormick cut one.

342
00:19:04.680 --> 00:19:09.119
<v Speaker 2>Please, we know even from fetal development perspective, that sex

343
00:19:09.200 --> 00:19:14.119
<v Speaker 2>is defined in the first trimester of pregnancy, whereas the

344
00:19:14.119 --> 00:19:17.119
<v Speaker 2>beginnings of the sense of gender identity start in the

345
00:19:17.160 --> 00:19:21.880
<v Speaker 2>second trimester of pregnancy. So certainly often these two things

346
00:19:21.960 --> 00:19:23.759
<v Speaker 2>match up, but often they don't.

347
00:19:25.279 --> 00:19:27.240
<v Speaker 1>Wow. Well, you know, as a pro lifeer, I'm really

348
00:19:27.279 --> 00:19:29.880
<v Speaker 1>happy to hear say that, because if these kids are

349
00:19:29.960 --> 00:19:32.680
<v Speaker 1>figuring out they're not really their true sex in the

350
00:19:32.720 --> 00:19:35.319
<v Speaker 1>second trimester, well then you shouldn't be able to kill them, right,

351
00:19:35.799 --> 00:19:39.079
<v Speaker 1>But what do you think of this whole goofy premise?

352
00:19:39.119 --> 00:19:42.240
<v Speaker 1>Arein that the kids are figuring out even before they're born,

353
00:19:42.359 --> 00:19:44.920
<v Speaker 1>that no, those parts really aren't my gender.

354
00:19:46.200 --> 00:19:49.960
<v Speaker 5>Well, quatch with Dan. This trans kid genocide that they

355
00:19:50.039 --> 00:19:53.079
<v Speaker 5>keep screaming about apparently really is happening. It's just that

356
00:19:53.519 --> 00:19:59.319
<v Speaker 5>they're the ones murdering them. Gosh, it was non spentacle

357
00:20:00.519 --> 00:20:05.960
<v Speaker 5>the bill. But hearing yeah, well, hey, they keep screaming

358
00:20:06.000 --> 00:20:09.079
<v Speaker 5>that people are feeling trans kids. If that's the case,

359
00:20:09.759 --> 00:20:13.240
<v Speaker 5>they're the ones doing it. This whole bill was insanity.

360
00:20:13.519 --> 00:20:15.519
<v Speaker 5>I mean truly, it was bill twenty five to eleven

361
00:20:15.599 --> 00:20:19.359
<v Speaker 5>oh nine to make it a criminal offense or someone

362
00:20:19.480 --> 00:20:23.440
<v Speaker 5>filling out a death certificate to misgender, as they say,

363
00:20:23.480 --> 00:20:24.960
<v Speaker 5>someone's gender identity.

364
00:20:25.359 --> 00:20:25.960
<v Speaker 1>So they are.

365
00:20:25.960 --> 00:20:30.000
<v Speaker 5>Compelling coroners who are looking at a body so that

366
00:20:30.119 --> 00:20:33.200
<v Speaker 5>is clearly male, and saying you must declare that this

367
00:20:33.319 --> 00:20:37.119
<v Speaker 5>is a female on official records or face criminal charges.

368
00:20:37.759 --> 00:20:41.039
<v Speaker 5>And when I looked into these the misdemeanor that they propose,

369
00:20:41.319 --> 00:20:44.720
<v Speaker 5>it's the same penalty as someone who commits second degree

370
00:20:44.880 --> 00:20:51.880
<v Speaker 5>arsin best false imprisonment, keeping a place of prostitution. And

371
00:20:51.920 --> 00:20:55.319
<v Speaker 5>they believe that this is suitable punishment for someone who

372
00:20:55.880 --> 00:20:58.000
<v Speaker 5>refuses to be compelling a lie.

373
00:20:58.440 --> 00:21:02.960
<v Speaker 1>Exactly. So the Democrats now are pushing a bill that

374
00:21:03.000 --> 00:21:06.200
<v Speaker 1>says it's a crime not to lie on a government form,

375
00:21:07.480 --> 00:21:09.599
<v Speaker 1>and that just tells you everything you need to know

376
00:21:09.640 --> 00:21:13.039
<v Speaker 1>about the Democratic Party in Colorado, doesn't it.

377
00:21:13.039 --> 00:21:17.400
<v Speaker 5>It's just one more incremental step towards eradicating our free

378
00:21:17.440 --> 00:21:20.519
<v Speaker 5>speech rights. I pointed out in my testimony during this

379
00:21:20.640 --> 00:21:24.960
<v Speaker 5>hearing that in twenty nineteen eleven twenty nine compelled the

380
00:21:25.000 --> 00:21:28.640
<v Speaker 5>speech of therapists and harmed children in the process. Last

381
00:21:28.720 --> 00:21:31.680
<v Speaker 5>year they passed ten thirty nine, which compels the speech

382
00:21:31.720 --> 00:21:35.440
<v Speaker 5>of teachers and harms kids in the process. And while

383
00:21:35.480 --> 00:21:37.559
<v Speaker 5>people may look at this and think this is such

384
00:21:37.559 --> 00:21:40.480
<v Speaker 5>a filly bill, they're wasting time. It will harm people

385
00:21:40.519 --> 00:21:43.240
<v Speaker 5>in the process. It will harm those families of kids

386
00:21:43.680 --> 00:21:46.680
<v Speaker 5>who died gender confused, who died to suicide or died

387
00:21:46.680 --> 00:21:51.039
<v Speaker 5>to complications from these barbe barrack medical procedures. It will

388
00:21:51.039 --> 00:21:55.359
<v Speaker 5>harm the coroners or the funeral directors, which are often churches,

389
00:21:55.799 --> 00:21:59.200
<v Speaker 5>who are being compelled to lie on government documents. That

390
00:21:59.240 --> 00:22:01.480
<v Speaker 5>absolutely will harm people in the process. It's not a

391
00:22:01.480 --> 00:22:04.559
<v Speaker 5>harmless bill, and it's one more step towards taking away

392
00:22:04.559 --> 00:22:05.240
<v Speaker 5>our free speech.

393
00:22:05.680 --> 00:22:08.559
<v Speaker 1>And I'm thinking out loud off of your last point.

394
00:22:08.839 --> 00:22:14.839
<v Speaker 1>I haven't concluded this, but might it not also promote suicide?

395
00:22:14.839 --> 00:22:17.640
<v Speaker 1>I mean, couldn't you see some terribly confused and a

396
00:22:18.039 --> 00:22:23.119
<v Speaker 1>lot of heartbreaking cases, terribly confused child who is just

397
00:22:23.279 --> 00:22:27.960
<v Speaker 1>now so caught up in their identity, is their gender identity,

398
00:22:28.000 --> 00:22:31.240
<v Speaker 1>that they're not really a male, they're a female and

399
00:22:32.200 --> 00:22:35.039
<v Speaker 1>that's how they want to be known. And that is

400
00:22:35.079 --> 00:22:37.839
<v Speaker 1>there a scenario where that could then motivate a suicide

401
00:22:37.960 --> 00:22:40.839
<v Speaker 1>just so that's the way they're forever remembered. I mean,

402
00:22:41.119 --> 00:22:43.319
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, but you know, people in that kind

403
00:22:43.359 --> 00:22:45.200
<v Speaker 1>of confused state, you never know. But let me ask

404
00:22:45.240 --> 00:22:47.599
<v Speaker 1>you this eron what do you think is really motivating this,

405
00:22:47.680 --> 00:22:50.480
<v Speaker 1>Because if it was a sincere desire to show respect

406
00:22:50.599 --> 00:22:53.680
<v Speaker 1>for the wishes of the deceased, wouldn't the bill be

407
00:22:53.799 --> 00:22:56.640
<v Speaker 1>to just add another box on the death certificate for

408
00:22:56.839 --> 00:23:04.359
<v Speaker 1>self identification and leave the medical scientific sex box intact.

409
00:23:05.680 --> 00:23:08.839
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, it really feels like a power move where they're

410
00:23:08.839 --> 00:23:11.559
<v Speaker 5>not satisfied with just adding an additional box. They're not

411
00:23:11.640 --> 00:23:16.880
<v Speaker 5>satisfied with ramifications that don't include criminality, which comes with

412
00:23:16.880 --> 00:23:19.960
<v Speaker 5>one hundred and twenty day sentence in jail. It really

413
00:23:19.960 --> 00:23:22.720
<v Speaker 5>feels like a total power move. As I said, they

414
00:23:22.759 --> 00:23:26.240
<v Speaker 5>are compelling us to go along with this agenda. They

415
00:23:26.279 --> 00:23:29.000
<v Speaker 5>are passing these laws so that we have no choice

416
00:23:29.279 --> 00:23:32.000
<v Speaker 5>but to go along with it, or essentially intimidating us

417
00:23:32.160 --> 00:23:35.039
<v Speaker 5>by the threat of criminality into going along with it.

418
00:23:35.079 --> 00:23:37.279
<v Speaker 5>And so to me, it really feels like a power

419
00:23:37.319 --> 00:23:40.079
<v Speaker 5>move where they are asserting their power over us and

420
00:23:40.119 --> 00:23:43.480
<v Speaker 5>they're not satisfied with just adding an additional box for

421
00:23:43.559 --> 00:23:44.960
<v Speaker 5>gender identity.

422
00:23:45.000 --> 00:23:47.000
<v Speaker 1>It goes back to the point that the Left has

423
00:23:47.079 --> 00:23:50.920
<v Speaker 1>never really been about tolerance. They've been about forced obedience,

424
00:23:50.960 --> 00:23:54.160
<v Speaker 1>and whether it's canceling you, running you out of civil

425
00:23:54.240 --> 00:23:57.000
<v Speaker 1>society if you won't bend the knee and all their lives,

426
00:23:57.559 --> 00:24:00.039
<v Speaker 1>or in this case, threatening you with criminal prosecute. You

427
00:24:00.079 --> 00:24:03.319
<v Speaker 1>sho in jail if you won't lie on an official form.

428
00:24:03.359 --> 00:24:05.200
<v Speaker 1>But let me ask you this because Aaron, if you

429
00:24:05.200 --> 00:24:07.839
<v Speaker 1>don't know Aaron's very compelling story, she has lived this

430
00:24:08.079 --> 00:24:12.200
<v Speaker 1>when she rescued her daughter from an effort to trans

431
00:24:12.240 --> 00:24:14.279
<v Speaker 1>her daughter that was going on at school that she

432
00:24:14.359 --> 00:24:19.000
<v Speaker 1>wasn't even told about. But what is the bigger play here?

433
00:24:19.160 --> 00:24:23.240
<v Speaker 1>Is it the secular left trying to just condition the

434
00:24:23.279 --> 00:24:28.599
<v Speaker 1>population to be willing to lie and willing to adopt,

435
00:24:29.279 --> 00:24:31.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, the so called truce of the left, just

436
00:24:31.960 --> 00:24:33.359
<v Speaker 1>to stay part of society.

437
00:24:34.839 --> 00:24:38.119
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, I'll address that more broadly because we saw with

438
00:24:38.359 --> 00:24:41.920
<v Speaker 5>Trump coming into office and passing these executive orders, a

439
00:24:42.119 --> 00:24:44.480
<v Speaker 5>shift in the Overton window. You know, it's like he's

440
00:24:44.720 --> 00:24:47.799
<v Speaker 5>flung the pendulum back in the other direction. And I

441
00:24:47.880 --> 00:24:51.920
<v Speaker 5>really equate Democrats right now to scared wounded animals in

442
00:24:51.960 --> 00:24:55.440
<v Speaker 5>a corner who are just lashing out. They're laughing out

443
00:24:55.480 --> 00:24:59.359
<v Speaker 5>in these most nonsensical ways, and they're really trying to

444
00:24:59.680 --> 00:25:04.240
<v Speaker 5>see that stranglehold on our culture. Because this gender ideology

445
00:25:04.480 --> 00:25:08.559
<v Speaker 5>swept through every facet of society especially over the last

446
00:25:08.640 --> 00:25:10.680
<v Speaker 5>four years. And I think they see the writing on

447
00:25:10.720 --> 00:25:12.759
<v Speaker 5>the wall that people are waking up and they're not

448
00:25:12.839 --> 00:25:15.640
<v Speaker 5>buying it anymore, so they have to force it on

449
00:25:15.759 --> 00:25:17.119
<v Speaker 5>us through these laws.

450
00:25:17.599 --> 00:25:20.119
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and I think people never bought it Aaron across

451
00:25:20.160 --> 00:25:23.599
<v Speaker 1>party lines. I think that people were silenced. They were censored.

452
00:25:23.640 --> 00:25:26.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, look at so many parents right who must

453
00:25:26.240 --> 00:25:30.880
<v Speaker 1>intensely love their children, yet they stayed silent as as

454
00:25:30.960 --> 00:25:34.359
<v Speaker 1>boys were allowed to play basketball and volleyball against their

455
00:25:34.400 --> 00:25:36.799
<v Speaker 1>little girls, right because they didn't want to be ostracized

456
00:25:36.839 --> 00:25:40.160
<v Speaker 1>or have their kids ostracized and run out of civil society.

457
00:25:40.599 --> 00:25:42.680
<v Speaker 1>So I think people have never bought into it, and

458
00:25:42.680 --> 00:25:45.119
<v Speaker 1>Trump just gave them permission to speak up.

459
00:25:46.119 --> 00:25:48.680
<v Speaker 5>That's right. It's been a lot of willful ignorance and

460
00:25:48.759 --> 00:25:51.680
<v Speaker 5>what I call toxic empathy or toxic kindness for people

461
00:25:51.759 --> 00:25:53.759
<v Speaker 5>just wanted to do the right thing and not be

462
00:25:53.839 --> 00:25:57.920
<v Speaker 5>pointed out and not be ostracized for saying the truth.

463
00:25:58.279 --> 00:25:58.759
<v Speaker 6>But he did.

464
00:25:58.799 --> 00:26:01.880
<v Speaker 5>He's given us all life now to be honest and

465
00:26:02.000 --> 00:26:03.920
<v Speaker 5>to see how we really feel. And I think that

466
00:26:04.640 --> 00:26:07.599
<v Speaker 5>the Democrats, who operate in an echo chamber in our

467
00:26:07.680 --> 00:26:11.839
<v Speaker 5>legislature are just desperately trying to compel all of us

468
00:26:12.000 --> 00:26:13.240
<v Speaker 5>to continue the lie.

469
00:26:13.440 --> 00:26:16.119
<v Speaker 1>Well, and it tells you they feel they're politically bulletproof

470
00:26:16.160 --> 00:26:18.880
<v Speaker 1>in Colorado, right because obviously the Dems just got wiped

471
00:26:18.920 --> 00:26:24.240
<v Speaker 1>out nationally by just adhering to this trans craziness. But

472
00:26:24.359 --> 00:26:26.279
<v Speaker 1>in Colorado they feel they can't lose.

473
00:26:27.359 --> 00:26:30.799
<v Speaker 5>That's right. They operate that way entirely, and that's why

474
00:26:30.880 --> 00:26:33.640
<v Speaker 5>I was part of co founding Protect Kids Colorado. We

475
00:26:33.759 --> 00:26:37.640
<v Speaker 5>run citizens valid initiatives. We recognize that we cannot pass

476
00:26:37.680 --> 00:26:40.160
<v Speaker 5>good laws, we can't even fight the bad laws like

477
00:26:40.200 --> 00:26:42.480
<v Speaker 5>this one was past eight to five through committee, and

478
00:26:42.519 --> 00:26:46.240
<v Speaker 5>it will become law in the state of Colorado and amazings

479
00:26:46.200 --> 00:26:48.519
<v Speaker 5>into our own hands. I think he will. There's no

480
00:26:48.559 --> 00:26:51.559
<v Speaker 5>fiscal note attached, I do. I think he'll sign it.

481
00:26:51.599 --> 00:26:54.519
<v Speaker 5>He definitely tries to play the moderate card. You've deceived

482
00:26:54.559 --> 00:26:57.079
<v Speaker 5>a lot of people, but he's certainly a driving force

483
00:26:57.440 --> 00:27:00.279
<v Speaker 5>in some of these more radical agendas, especially on the

484
00:27:00.400 --> 00:27:03.319
<v Speaker 5>TQ issues where children are concerned.

485
00:27:04.039 --> 00:27:06.000
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, you know, it'll be interesting to me to see

486
00:27:06.000 --> 00:27:07.680
<v Speaker 1>if he signs it, because I look at what he's

487
00:27:07.680 --> 00:27:10.640
<v Speaker 1>done politically. For example, after the horror at Club Q

488
00:27:10.880 --> 00:27:14.519
<v Speaker 1>where all those wonderful people were killed and wounded police

489
00:27:14.519 --> 00:27:17.240
<v Speaker 1>didn't go down there for days now. He had COVID initially,

490
00:27:17.799 --> 00:27:20.119
<v Speaker 1>but he was back in the office within a few days,

491
00:27:20.119 --> 00:27:22.880
<v Speaker 1>and even then, if I remember, waited two or three

492
00:27:22.960 --> 00:27:24.960
<v Speaker 1>or four days and then just to kind of a

493
00:27:25.039 --> 00:27:28.880
<v Speaker 1>brief drive by. So it'll be interesting to see how

494
00:27:28.880 --> 00:27:31.599
<v Speaker 1>he plays this politically, because nobody has to be a

495
00:27:31.599 --> 00:27:34.359
<v Speaker 1>political scientist right to see where Americans are at on this,

496
00:27:34.440 --> 00:27:37.279
<v Speaker 1>and you can be sure most Coloradens as well. I mean,

497
00:27:37.319 --> 00:27:40.000
<v Speaker 1>it's got to be a very strong majority of Coloraden's

498
00:27:40.680 --> 00:27:43.359
<v Speaker 1>who see this trans stuff as crazy. I mean, they

499
00:27:43.359 --> 00:27:45.440
<v Speaker 1>have a heart, as all of us do, right for

500
00:27:45.519 --> 00:27:48.680
<v Speaker 1>kids who are truly confused or adults who are truly confused,

501
00:27:49.039 --> 00:27:52.400
<v Speaker 1>But don't make us lie, don't make us agree that

502
00:27:52.519 --> 00:27:55.319
<v Speaker 1>men can go into girls' locker rooms and showers or

503
00:27:55.319 --> 00:27:58.240
<v Speaker 1>play their sports. I've got to believe this is a

504
00:27:58.279 --> 00:28:00.599
<v Speaker 1>seventy to thirty issue, at least in Colorado.

505
00:28:01.640 --> 00:28:03.640
<v Speaker 5>I think it's more of like an eighty twenty issue

506
00:28:03.799 --> 00:28:06.759
<v Speaker 5>from my experience talking to people with the BALLID initiative,

507
00:28:06.799 --> 00:28:08.920
<v Speaker 5>at least an eighty twenty issue. I think. You know,

508
00:28:08.960 --> 00:28:11.440
<v Speaker 5>Paulis is a politician, and so he signed off eleven

509
00:28:11.480 --> 00:28:13.799
<v Speaker 5>twenty nine. He signed ten thirty nine that you held

510
00:28:13.799 --> 00:28:16.480
<v Speaker 5>our speech. But he's going to do what is going

511
00:28:16.519 --> 00:28:18.640
<v Speaker 5>to put him in the best position to run for president.

512
00:28:19.160 --> 00:28:22.240
<v Speaker 5>And as the culture changes, it'll be interesting to see

513
00:28:22.640 --> 00:28:23.680
<v Speaker 5>if he signs this or not.

514
00:28:23.799 --> 00:28:27.759
<v Speaker 1>It could go either way. The best position to run

515
00:28:27.799 --> 00:28:30.720
<v Speaker 1>for president. I come back to you. I have a

516
00:28:30.720 --> 00:28:33.440
<v Speaker 1>better chance of being QB one for the Broncos next year,

517
00:28:33.480 --> 00:28:36.079
<v Speaker 1>but we'll enjoy it together. Erin, how can people follow you?

518
00:28:37.200 --> 00:28:40.279
<v Speaker 5>Yes, I go by Aaron four parental rights on all platforms.

519
00:28:40.279 --> 00:28:42.279
<v Speaker 5>And then there's a free film about our movie that

520
00:28:42.319 --> 00:28:46.079
<v Speaker 5>we made that anyone can watch. It's at arcclubmovie dot com.

521
00:28:46.319 --> 00:28:49.119
<v Speaker 1>Well, keep up the fight. You're doing great work. Thank you, Erin.

522
00:28:50.079 --> 00:28:52.680
<v Speaker 1>Thanks Dan, take care. When we come back. We'll get

523
00:28:52.720 --> 00:28:54.119
<v Speaker 1>a few texts on this. But I get to some

524
00:28:54.319 --> 00:28:59.119
<v Speaker 1>other stuff today, including President Trump's fascinating idea of selling

525
00:28:59.200 --> 00:29:03.279
<v Speaker 1>essentially sit and ship for five million dollars to certain

526
00:29:03.319 --> 00:29:05.359
<v Speaker 1>people who may be job producers. What do you think

527
00:29:05.400 --> 00:29:07.319
<v Speaker 1>about that? You're on the Dan Caplas Show.

528
00:29:13.720 --> 00:29:16.079
<v Speaker 3>And now back to the Dan Taplas Show podcast.

529
00:29:18.480 --> 00:29:21.160
<v Speaker 6>And wealthy people will be coming into our country by

530
00:29:21.160 --> 00:29:22.000
<v Speaker 6>buying this card.

531
00:29:22.039 --> 00:29:22.799
<v Speaker 1>They'll be wealthy.

532
00:29:24.400 --> 00:29:27.480
<v Speaker 6>Okay, okay, I've heard a lot of stupid in my life,

533
00:29:27.519 --> 00:29:30.119
<v Speaker 6>but this, this is a new one. So we're now

534
00:29:30.480 --> 00:29:33.880
<v Speaker 6>going to sell a gold card to very wealthy people

535
00:29:34.640 --> 00:29:36.759
<v Speaker 6>so that they can get access to the US for

536
00:29:36.839 --> 00:29:37.880
<v Speaker 6>five million dollars.

537
00:29:38.200 --> 00:29:40.160
<v Speaker 1>Meanwhile, we've got.

538
00:29:39.960 --> 00:29:43.599
<v Speaker 6>People who have legitimately come through the process whose papers

539
00:29:43.640 --> 00:29:46.480
<v Speaker 6>may have expired. What they're getting kicked out?

540
00:29:46.559 --> 00:29:48.519
<v Speaker 1>Sure, these people with the gold card, it would be

541
00:29:48.559 --> 00:29:51.000
<v Speaker 1>really nice. These are really good people.

542
00:29:51.319 --> 00:29:55.559
<v Speaker 6>So here's the deal. Uh, you can get a gold

543
00:29:55.599 --> 00:29:59.599
<v Speaker 6>card and maybe some golden made tennis shoes, and hey,

544
00:30:00.079 --> 00:30:01.079
<v Speaker 6>become a US citizen.

545
00:30:01.279 --> 00:30:03.400
<v Speaker 1>I mean, we've had a decade of right, I.

546
00:30:03.400 --> 00:30:04.880
<v Speaker 6>Mean everything's for sales.

547
00:30:04.960 --> 00:30:08.240
<v Speaker 1>That are we going out? Yeah? Really sad to see

548
00:30:08.240 --> 00:30:11.839
<v Speaker 1>what Michael Steele's become, right, and you just think of

549
00:30:11.880 --> 00:30:14.559
<v Speaker 1>all of the things he said about Trump during the campaign,

550
00:30:14.599 --> 00:30:17.519
<v Speaker 1>Trump would never be president, this, this, that that, and

551
00:30:17.599 --> 00:30:20.640
<v Speaker 1>so now he's reduced to kind of those cheap lines

552
00:30:20.720 --> 00:30:23.759
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, but hey, it is what it is. Too bad.

553
00:30:23.920 --> 00:30:27.400
<v Speaker 1>But in terms of public policy, I think it's absolutely

554
00:30:27.480 --> 00:30:31.400
<v Speaker 1>fascinating because hey, you know, you look at it. In

555
00:30:31.480 --> 00:30:33.359
<v Speaker 1>my view of it anyway, is first of all, our

556
00:30:33.400 --> 00:30:35.519
<v Speaker 1>immigration laws have to be respected. We have to be

557
00:30:35.559 --> 00:30:38.599
<v Speaker 1>able to control our borders, control who comes in. That's

558
00:30:38.640 --> 00:30:42.240
<v Speaker 1>in no way racial or anything like that. It's just

559
00:30:42.440 --> 00:30:46.000
<v Speaker 1>kind of common sense. But then beyond that, I think that, yeah,

560
00:30:46.039 --> 00:30:49.720
<v Speaker 1>we do have I think in obligation as a nation

561
00:30:49.839 --> 00:30:53.039
<v Speaker 1>more has expected those two more is given to do

562
00:30:53.240 --> 00:30:57.640
<v Speaker 1>everything we reasonably can, you know, to help the oppressed

563
00:30:57.640 --> 00:31:00.359
<v Speaker 1>do seek refuge here. That doesn't mean open bar, it

564
00:31:00.400 --> 00:31:02.839
<v Speaker 1>doesn't mean taking everybody at sure as hell, doesn't mean

565
00:31:02.880 --> 00:31:05.759
<v Speaker 1>not vain. But I do think at that end of

566
00:31:05.799 --> 00:31:09.480
<v Speaker 1>the scale, we have that obligation to do what we can.

567
00:31:09.640 --> 00:31:13.119
<v Speaker 1>On the other end, there's no reason that we should

568
00:31:13.119 --> 00:31:16.240
<v Speaker 1>not be taking advantage of the gifts we've been given

569
00:31:16.319 --> 00:31:21.000
<v Speaker 1>with this nation. And consider a program like that where listen,

570
00:31:21.039 --> 00:31:25.400
<v Speaker 1>if you're able to add job producers from around the world,

571
00:31:25.400 --> 00:31:28.839
<v Speaker 1>if you're able to also attract, you know, not just

572
00:31:28.920 --> 00:31:32.240
<v Speaker 1>those who are seeking refuge from oppression, et cetera, but

573
00:31:32.599 --> 00:31:38.279
<v Speaker 1>attract those job producers, those who can contribute to society economically,

574
00:31:38.319 --> 00:31:41.319
<v Speaker 1>et cetera. Why in the world wouldn't you take advantage

575
00:31:41.359 --> 00:31:44.720
<v Speaker 1>of that. And it's not to suggest that they're automatically

576
00:31:44.720 --> 00:31:48.680
<v Speaker 1>a better person because they're wealthy than somebody who may

577
00:31:48.720 --> 00:31:51.480
<v Speaker 1>have no money and is seeking refuge here. It may

578
00:31:51.599 --> 00:31:54.279
<v Speaker 1>very well be the person with no money is the

579
00:31:54.279 --> 00:31:57.480
<v Speaker 1>better human being. But you've got to make sure everybody

580
00:31:57.599 --> 00:32:02.160
<v Speaker 1>meets those matches, that vetting and meets the criteria to

581
00:32:02.200 --> 00:32:05.359
<v Speaker 1>come here, whether they're poor or whether they're rich. But

582
00:32:05.599 --> 00:32:08.440
<v Speaker 1>why not work at both ends of the spectrum and

583
00:32:08.559 --> 00:32:12.240
<v Speaker 1>be attracting as many job producers as you can And

584
00:32:12.240 --> 00:32:15.039
<v Speaker 1>then Ryan, if this program happens, I hope that the

585
00:32:15.079 --> 00:32:17.920
<v Speaker 1>money from it, then it could be very large. I

586
00:32:17.960 --> 00:32:22.960
<v Speaker 1>hope it's put toward a very specific purpose, whether it's

587
00:32:22.960 --> 00:32:27.799
<v Speaker 1>building schools or whatever, rather than just go into you know,

588
00:32:27.880 --> 00:32:31.240
<v Speaker 1>the general fund. But I'm intrigued by it, and I

589
00:32:31.279 --> 00:32:34.759
<v Speaker 1>really like the fact Trump has all these fresh ideas,

590
00:32:34.839 --> 00:32:36.720
<v Speaker 1>and I don't agree with every single one of them,

591
00:32:36.759 --> 00:32:38.720
<v Speaker 1>but I agree with a lot of them. And it's

592
00:32:38.920 --> 00:32:42.119
<v Speaker 1>just we know, right, it's going to be this fresh thinking,

593
00:32:42.200 --> 00:32:45.279
<v Speaker 1>these fresh ideas that save the country.

594
00:32:44.960 --> 00:32:47.319
<v Speaker 3>And these will be job creators that come here, Dan,

595
00:32:47.480 --> 00:32:50.039
<v Speaker 3>who pay a living wage rather than what we heard

596
00:32:50.039 --> 00:32:53.880
<v Speaker 3>Promila Jaya Paul talking about having illegals come here being

597
00:32:53.960 --> 00:32:57.680
<v Speaker 3>paid under the table, not a living wage, undercutting working

598
00:32:57.759 --> 00:33:01.160
<v Speaker 3>American wages has the exact opposite effect.

599
00:33:00.799 --> 00:33:04.279
<v Speaker 1>On our economy what he's proposing here. Trump, Yeah, and

600
00:33:04.319 --> 00:33:06.799
<v Speaker 1>a good point. It brings us back to this core truth,

601
00:33:07.000 --> 00:33:09.359
<v Speaker 1>which is that the Democrats. I don't care if it's

602
00:33:09.559 --> 00:33:13.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, Colorado Democrats, et cetera, but the people really

603
00:33:13.039 --> 00:33:17.119
<v Speaker 1>in power in the Democratic Party do not want most

604
00:33:17.160 --> 00:33:21.039
<v Speaker 1>people to prosper because they understand the data that once

605
00:33:21.160 --> 00:33:23.880
<v Speaker 1>most people start making more than X, and I think

606
00:33:24.039 --> 00:33:26.720
<v Speaker 1>X right now is probably in the sixty five thousand range,

607
00:33:26.720 --> 00:33:29.119
<v Speaker 1>I'd want to double check it, then a majority are

608
00:33:29.119 --> 00:33:33.359
<v Speaker 1>going to vote Republicans. So the left has a desperate,

609
00:33:33.720 --> 00:33:38.680
<v Speaker 1>selfish interest in most people not prospering. So I've labeled

610
00:33:38.680 --> 00:33:41.480
<v Speaker 1>it the fighting for scraps party, and that's what the

611
00:33:41.480 --> 00:33:44.680
<v Speaker 1>Democratic Party at the Colorado and national level are all about.

612
00:33:45.400 --> 00:33:50.119
<v Speaker 1>Keep people fighting for scraps dependent on government, because if

613
00:33:50.200 --> 00:33:52.200
<v Speaker 1>all of a sudden we have something like true school choice,

614
00:33:52.240 --> 00:33:54.839
<v Speaker 1>it just unleashes it, right, and all of a sudden,

615
00:33:54.839 --> 00:33:56.759
<v Speaker 1>all these people have been forced into a cycle of

616
00:33:56.759 --> 00:33:59.519
<v Speaker 1>poverty by the Democrats have a chance to reach their

617
00:33:59.559 --> 00:34:03.039
<v Speaker 1>god given potential. Well, guess what, the modern left is dead,

618
00:34:03.279 --> 00:34:06.640
<v Speaker 1>because then you've got all these people escaping that cycle

619
00:34:06.680 --> 00:34:11.239
<v Speaker 1>of poverty or underperformance. Who now get to prosper and

620
00:34:11.320 --> 00:34:14.159
<v Speaker 1>what happens when they prosper well? Most of them are

621
00:34:14.159 --> 00:34:19.679
<v Speaker 1>going to become conservative. Yeah, so remarkable moment we live in. Hey,

<v Speaker 1>another great job, Brian, thank you for that, my friend
