Speaker 1: This is Dan Caples and welcome to today's online podcast
Speaker 1: edition of The Dan Caplis Show. Please be sure to
Speaker 1: give us a five star rating if you'd be so kind,
Speaker 1: and to subscribe, download, and listen to the show every
Speaker 1: single day on your favorite podcast platform. Yeah, the American
Speaker 1: way is to fix it, right. It's not to sweep
Speaker 1: it under the rug. It is to fix it. The
Speaker 1: American way is to be the best. The American way
Speaker 1: is to be as close to perfect as humanly possible.
Speaker 1: But why else should anything else be acceptable? With everything
Speaker 1: we've been blessed with? Right, So I like the very
Speaker 1: strong response of President Trump in this one critical respect.
Speaker 1: He is not going to accept the status quo. And
Speaker 1: whether he ends up being right or wrong about whether
Speaker 1: this unimaginable failure in that control tower was DEI or not,
Speaker 1: one way or the other. I love the fact he's
Speaker 1: laying out we are not going to accept this status quo.
Speaker 1: It's a big reason he won. It's a big reason
Speaker 1: Republicans now can win for a very long time to
Speaker 1: come if they deliver, because Americans that they don't want
Speaker 1: this slide. That's not who we are. We aren't mediocre.
Speaker 1: We are goofballs who all of a sudden say that that, yeah,
Speaker 1: boys and men with penises can be in girls showers
Speaker 1: just because the left says so, And people who are
Speaker 1: dangerous criminals from other country get to come in because
Speaker 1: the left says we're racist if you won't let them in.
Speaker 1: That's all nonsense. Americans pride themselves on operating at the
Speaker 1: highest level, and we need to get back to that.
Speaker 1: So I'm glad to see see Trump's overall response be
Speaker 1: We're not tolerating this anymore, whether it's right orround, and
Speaker 1: got on the cause of this one. We'll find out
Speaker 1: together over time. Eight five five four zero five eight
Speaker 1: two five five the number dam five seven seven three nine.
Speaker 1: Want to get your reaction, I know you have one
Speaker 1: on multiple levels, because I sure do. None of us
Speaker 1: were expecting last night to have this story, you know,
Speaker 1: come on the news and then everything that flowed from it.
Speaker 1: I think everybody in the country went to bed sad
Speaker 1: after this last night because it was just so unnecessary.
Speaker 1: And obviously, if if you fly and this doesn't make
Speaker 1: you a little bit afraid, then you know you may
Speaker 1: want to go see her doctor about that. And I
Speaker 1: don't mean, oh I'm not getting an airplane. I mean,
Speaker 1: I mean, what the blank is going on? And can
Speaker 1: I really trust this system? Because one of the things
Speaker 1: Trump has exposed in a way I don't think anybody
Speaker 1: else could have is that there are a lot of
Speaker 1: systems that we'd been trusting, maybe not blindly, right, we're
Speaker 1: not idiots or children, but systems that in general we
Speaker 1: just sort of trusted. When you get beyond this whole
Speaker 1: Hollywood storefront, it's a mess behind the curtain, and so
Speaker 1: is this one of them? Because you know, we've been
Speaker 1: hearing all these stories about near miss this, near miss that,
Speaker 1: and maybe you pay attention to the story, maybe you don't,
Speaker 1: and then all of a sudden it's not a near miss.
Speaker 1: So what really is going on? I want to get reaction.
Speaker 1: Eight five to five for zero five eight two five
Speaker 1: five the number. I thought about throwing out the question, Hey,
Speaker 1: is this going to change your travel habits or plans?
Speaker 1: But I figured that's a stupid question because it's not right.
Speaker 1: I mean, I can't imagine anybody at this point is
Speaker 1: going to now fly less or this or that, or
Speaker 1: want to go peek up in the tower before they go.
Speaker 1: It's because we all just got to do it right,
Speaker 1: We've all just got to fly. But I would just
Speaker 1: like to get your reaction on whatever level you have,
Speaker 1: including I mean, you know, the President came out today
Speaker 1: and he's he's very concerned about DEI on this. We'll
Speaker 1: start with some of that sound.
Speaker 2: The Federal Aviation Administration is actively recruiting workers who suffer
Speaker 2: severe intellectual disabilities, psychiatric problems, and other mental and physical
Speaker 2: conditions under a diversity and inclusion hiring initiatives spelled out.
Speaker 1: On the agency's website.
Speaker 2: Can you imagine these are people that are and actually
Speaker 2: their lives are shortened because of the stress that they have.
Speaker 2: Brilliant people have to be in those positions, and their
Speaker 2: lives are actually shortened, very substantially shortened because of the
Speaker 2: stress where you have many, many planes coming into one
Speaker 2: target and you need a very special talent and a
Speaker 2: very special genius to be able to do it.
Speaker 1: Yeah. So let's see where the investigation leads on this, right.
Speaker 1: I mean, the current reporting is that there was one
Speaker 1: controller working two positions. If that's the case, somebody needs
Speaker 1: to go to jail. That there is a point at
Speaker 1: which it becomes criminal negligence and you have to start
Speaker 1: putting people in jail. Let's say that you have a
Speaker 1: heart surgery. You can't just say, okay, well, you know
Speaker 1: we haven't. We've had hiring trouble, so we're going to
Speaker 1: have the our nurse also cover anesthesia. You can't do that.
Speaker 1: At a certain point, it becomes criminal negligence. So if
Speaker 1: that were is true, somebody needs to go to jail.
Speaker 1: And that's what needs to start happening in America, right.
Speaker 1: They have got to start jailing. They have got to
Speaker 1: start jailing these people at the top levels of different corporations, institutions, etc.
Speaker 1: That make a decision that they know may very well
Speaker 1: get somebody killed. I'm not talking about judgment calls, and
Speaker 1: I know there's danger in every aspect of life. I'm
Speaker 1: talking about if somebody knew, Okay, we need two controllers tonight,
Speaker 1: but Johnny called in six, so we're only gonna have
Speaker 1: one controller, but we're still going to allow the same
Speaker 1: amount of air traffic. Whoever made that decision needs to
Speaker 1: be charged with criminal negligence and they need to do time.
Speaker 1: And I'm sick and tired. You know, as a guy
Speaker 1: who's been at the privilege for forty years have been
Speaker 1: suing corporations that, in my opinion, just sit back and
Speaker 1: make that decision. You know what, Yo, we know that's
Speaker 1: gonna kill somebody, We're gonna do it anyway. It's cheaper
Speaker 1: to pay the claims. Those sobs need to start going
Speaker 1: to jail and not just get away with writing checks
Speaker 1: to pay the claims. So I'm real hopeful we're in
Speaker 1: one of those moments now with Trump and with RFK.
Speaker 1: And I got plenty of differences with RFK, but I
Speaker 1: really like the stuff I like, and he's Trump's pick.
Speaker 1: I just hope we're in one of those moments right
Speaker 1: now where we're going to be shattering, where we're going
Speaker 1: to be shattering some of this awful stuff that has
Speaker 1: become the quote norm eight five five for zero five
Speaker 1: eight two five five the number texts DA N five
Speaker 1: seven seven three nine. So again, anxious to get your
Speaker 1: take to all of this, Ryan right now. And I
Speaker 1: understand none of us have done a full investigation, et cetera,
Speaker 1: et cetera, But right now, who do you blame?
Speaker 3: It's difficult, But where I'm most curious to find out
Speaker 3: details is the flight path of the helicopter and that
Speaker 3: training exercise, and why then and why there and who
Speaker 3: was leading it, Because you have to believe I was
Speaker 3: talking to Kelly about this earlier, that the flight plan,
Speaker 3: the manifest for the Wichita aircraft coming into Reagan National
Speaker 3: that had been on the books. I knew about that.
Speaker 3: That's a constant in the equation. For me, the helicopter
Speaker 3: is the variable. So that's where I would start. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: it makes perfect sense. On the other hand, wait a second,
Speaker 3: you're up in that tower for a reason.
Speaker 1: We're talking about the air traffic controllers. You're just supposed
Speaker 1: to be watching this stuff. I mean, listen, you've got
Speaker 1: to assume when you run any kind of system where
Speaker 1: lives can easily be lost, it's your basic responsibility to
Speaker 1: assume there's going to be human error in the operation
Speaker 1: of aircrafts. And you assume that you know that's going
Speaker 1: to happen. So your job is to assume that and
Speaker 1: be watching everything and to stop it from happening. Now,
Speaker 1: maybe we learned some facts down the road that take
Speaker 1: air traffic control off. OK, right, that could happen, But
Speaker 1: at this point, my understanding of the reporting is that
Speaker 1: they could see they could see the helicopter approaching the
Speaker 1: flight plaths, flight paths of the plane. Now, again this
Speaker 1: is all preliminary, but all I'm saying the one thing
Speaker 1: for sure is is we've been tolerating mediocrity and worse
Speaker 1: for way too long in this country, at lots of
Speaker 1: different levels. And that doesn't mean we all don't make mistakes.
Speaker 1: We all do make mistakes at time, but that doesn't
Speaker 1: mean we're mediocre. The question is in our overall everyday performance,
Speaker 1: what level do we operate at?
Speaker 3: In my contention, Dan, when I was watching this press
Speaker 3: conference live and President Trump took that hard pivot from
Speaker 3: expressing condolences for the victims and their families to going
Speaker 3: in on DEI I don't think he did that for
Speaker 3: no reason at all on a thin air. I think
Speaker 3: either Sectev Pete Hegseth or Sean Duffy or some of
Speaker 3: the other information he was given gave him a strong
Speaker 3: feeling that there was some level of incompetence within the
Speaker 3: air traffic control that contributed to this.
Speaker 1: No, you're right, and we know the tweet he sent.
Speaker 1: I can't remember if it was late last night early
Speaker 1: this morning, but to tweet the President sent, you know,
Speaker 1: just pointing toward the control tower, etc. And you know
Speaker 1: he has access to all of that information immediately. So yeah,
Speaker 1: so I expect that he would not have said that
Speaker 1: unless he has a lot to back it up. We'll
Speaker 1: find that out as it rolls out. But I really
Speaker 1: like the fact he's making it clear, No, we are
Speaker 1: not tolerating this mediocrity anymore, no matter what the source
Speaker 1: of the mediocrity. I mean, can the mediocrity come from
Speaker 1: political appointees? To me, here's where the mediocrity comes from. Right,
Speaker 1: The mediocrity comes from doing the opposite of what doctor
Speaker 1: King called for. That's where mediocrity comes from.
Speaker 4: I have a dream my poor little children when they
Speaker 4: live in a nation where they will not be judged
Speaker 4: by the color of mass skin, but by the pun
Speaker 4: kent of that character.
Speaker 5: I have a dream, And it doesn't have to be
Speaker 5: race or gender or any of that based Once you
Speaker 5: start compromising merit, once you start saying whether it's because
Speaker 5: of political appointees, or whether it's because of this factor
Speaker 5: or that factor, once you start saying that, hey, merit
Speaker 5: isn't what matters here.
Speaker 1: You know, hiring is going to be based on other things.
Speaker 1: That's the point where this whole thing falls apart, and
Speaker 1: when you start compromising the standard and making decisions based
Speaker 1: on other than merit when it comes to public safety
Speaker 1: and life and death operations, at that point it is criminal.
Speaker 1: We have to get to the bottom of this. It's
Speaker 1: one of the things I'm most excited about about Trump
Speaker 1: is I'm confident he's going to get to the bottom
Speaker 1: of this and lots of other stuff. Let the chips
Speaker 1: fall where they may. You're on the Dan Capla Show.
Speaker 6: And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.
Speaker 1: Way, that's back.
Speaker 2: The FAA, which is overseen by Secretary Pete Buddhajeg A
Speaker 2: real winner.
Speaker 1: That's the guy's a real winner.
Speaker 2: And you know how badly everything's run since he's run
Speaker 2: this Department of Transportation. He's a disaster. He was a
Speaker 2: disaster as a mayor. He read his city into the ground,
Speaker 2: and he's a disaster now. He's just got a good
Speaker 2: line of bullshit. The Department of Transportation his government agency
Speaker 2: charged with regulating civil aviation. Well, he runs it forty
Speaker 2: five thousand people and he's run it right into the
Speaker 2: ground with his diversity.
Speaker 1: Eight five five for zero five eight two five five
Speaker 1: the number text d an five seven seven thirty nine.
Speaker 1: And again, hey, we'll see where the evidence lines up
Speaker 1: on whether DEI is responsible for any of this. But
Speaker 1: what we know, what everybody has to be able to
Speaker 1: agree on, right, is that it's got to be merit based,
Speaker 1: especially when it comes to something like this, something like safety,
Speaker 1: it's got to be merit based. And with lefties in charge,
Speaker 1: does any sane person have any reason to believe that
Speaker 1: it's merit based. And that doesn't mean race, that doesn't
Speaker 1: mean gender, It can mean political appointees, that can mean
Speaker 1: all sorts of garbage. But is there anything in the
Speaker 1: way you see lefties operate here in Colorado or nationally
Speaker 1: which makes you think that for them it's merit based?
Speaker 2: N A.
Speaker 1: William in Longmond. You're on the Dan Kaplas show. Welcome
Speaker 1: are you today?
Speaker 7: Dan?
Speaker 1: I am ticked off.
Speaker 8: I think I am too a little bit because I
Speaker 8: think you're on the right track here. I would say
Speaker 8: that there is a difference between back east and out
Speaker 8: west here. I have a relative in one of the
Speaker 8: facilities back east and their training success rate is thirty
Speaker 8: five percent.
Speaker 1: Oh my lord, and you.
Speaker 8: Come out here to the east or to the west
Speaker 8: and your training success rate is seventy five percent. And
Speaker 8: you know over time in the twenty four to seven
Speaker 8: operation is very lucrative if you start working shorthanded and
Speaker 8: washing people out.
Speaker 1: But I appreciate the call, my friend. Is this broader
Speaker 1: issue of competence of standards, I think is an enormous one.
Speaker 1: And listen, I am not, underline, not suggesting that drugs
Speaker 1: had anything to do with what happened in that crash.
Speaker 1: Not I'm making a broader point that in general, no
Speaker 1: rational person can expect that you can now flood this state,
Speaker 1: flood this nation with drugs and drug use, and not
Speaker 1: pay a price when it comes to public safety, when
Speaker 1: it comes to competence performance. Again, I am not saying
Speaker 1: that was a part of this plane crash, But what
Speaker 1: I am saying is it's cost a lot of lives
Speaker 1: already in Colorado, and we've got to be we've got
Speaker 1: to be realistic about the effect of a much more
Speaker 1: drugged up population, the effect on public safety, the effect
Speaker 1: on standards, the effect on everything eight five five for
Speaker 1: zero five e two five to five of the number
Speaker 1: speaking of which it at some point do we have
Speaker 1: the latest installment from the grand bugler Michael Bennett. Okay
Speaker 1: twenty four, Okay, great, let's yeah. See that's the thing.
Speaker 1: Mine's not scrolling down to twenty four? Can you fire
Speaker 1: that for us? Not on a whim? What's a How
Speaker 1: is it a whim to say, Hey, I've got a
Speaker 1: computer from nineteen oh eight and it is not scrolling
Speaker 1: to cut twenty You're.
Speaker 6: Saying it's like one of those og computers.
Speaker 1: What I'm saying is, can we just buy our own
Speaker 1: blank and can we spend thirty five bucks and put
Speaker 1: a webcam in?
Speaker 6: Well, I know you want that that one. I knew here.
Speaker 6: I'm going to fire the Bennett one right now. You're ready,
Speaker 6: Thank you're ready.
Speaker 9: Yes, Well, you believe, as the chairman of this committee believes,
Speaker 9: as the vast majority of members of our intelligence agencies believe,
Speaker 9: that Edward Snowden was a trader to the United States
Speaker 9: of America.
Speaker 1: Senator of confirmedis.
Speaker 9: Is there not a moment social media, It's not a
Speaker 9: moment to propagate theories, conspiracy theories, or or or attacks
Speaker 9: on journalism in the United States. This is when you
Speaker 9: need to answer the questions of the people whose votes
Speaker 9: you're asking to be confirmed. As the chief intelligence officer
Speaker 9: of this nation. As my colleague said, this is not
Speaker 9: about you. It's about the people that serve the intelligence
Speaker 9: agencies of the United States. Is Edward snowed In a
Speaker 9: trader to the United States of America? That is not
Speaker 9: a hard question to answer when the states.
Speaker 1: Are this, Hi, Senator, as someone who has.
Speaker 7: Your answer yes or no?
Speaker 1: Is he drunk?
Speaker 9: Is Edward snowed In a trader to the United State
Speaker 9: States of America.
Speaker 3: As someone who has everybody understand how critical our national security?
Speaker 1: Apparently you don't. Apparently you don't. I gotta tell you
Speaker 1: this goes back to the very fair question I asked
Speaker 1: yesterday about Mike Johnston, and I gave a specific example.
Speaker 1: Then he's the mayor of Denver. Lawless Mike. Is it
Speaker 1: fair to ask these days, particularly of those elected representatives
Speaker 1: from states where marijuana is quote legal, whether they imbibe
Speaker 1: Because I've got to tell you, Michael Bennett, I haven't
Speaker 1: met him. I assume he's an intelligent guy. Michael Bennett
Speaker 1: sounded impaired there, didn't he didn't.
Speaker 3: He When he gets worked up, though, he loses annunciation.
Speaker 6: I told you about the time he went off.
Speaker 1: With Cruz annunciation is one thing, because I do that
Speaker 1: too sometimes, all right, I'll get real fired up at
Speaker 1: something and who knows. But here's the point is, wait
Speaker 1: a second. He had these lines ready to go, right,
Speaker 1: but she had to die to question before the lines
Speaker 1: made any sense. He asks her the question, gives her
Speaker 1: no chance to answer, and then starts bellowing answer the question.
Speaker 1: I mean, it really seemed impaired. And you know, you
Speaker 1: had plenty of lefty questioning that was way off base, dishonest, whatever,
Speaker 1: but didn't seem impaired.
Speaker 3: I think she wanted to give a nuanced answer. And
Speaker 3: what I was able to dig out after he interrupted
Speaker 3: her three separate times, was that she wanted to prevent
Speaker 3: on another Snowden like event from happening, and that what
Speaker 3: he did was wrong. He leaked this information. She was
Speaker 3: not willing, for whatever reason, to call him point blank
Speaker 3: yes or no, a trader to the United States. That's
Speaker 3: what Bennet wanted, right.
Speaker 1: But what you see there is that the lack of
Speaker 1: the ability, the lack of the ability and skill to
Speaker 1: engage her in any kind of back and forth, so
Speaker 1: he has to interrupt and just bellow this stuff. It's
Speaker 1: just to me, it's not only weird, it's you got
Speaker 1: to be able to do better than that in the
Speaker 1: US Senate. I don't care what side you're on, what
Speaker 1: your ideology is, you got to be able to perform
Speaker 1: better than that. I think in the end, like so
Speaker 1: much of this lefty garbage, it just helps her. It
Speaker 1: just helps her get confirmed. Speaking of which, when we
Speaker 1: come back, we'll go to our fiery lines. The main topic,
Speaker 1: of course, spins from the very, very sad, tragic, completely
Speaker 1: preventable destruction of human life last night and what it
Speaker 1: means about the system, what it means about a lot
Speaker 1: of different things. Is President Trump right when he says DEI, Oh,
Speaker 1: We've got to bring you two days in a row
Speaker 1: from Bernie some of the classic all time sound from
Speaker 1: the Hill And this is Bernie going at it with
Speaker 1: RFK Junior, and I bet Bernie wishes he hadn't here
Speaker 1: on the Dan Kaplas Show.
Speaker 6: You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
Speaker 10: I'm going to make I'm Erica healthier than other countries
Speaker 10: in the world.
Speaker 11: Right now, will you guarantee do what every other major
Speaker 11: country does.
Speaker 1: That's a simple question.
Speaker 10: And by the way, Bernie, you know that the problem
Speaker 10: of corruption is not just in the federal agents, is
Speaker 10: in Congress to almost all the members of this panel
Speaker 10: are accepting, including yourself, are accepting millions of dollars from
Speaker 10: the pharmaceutical and opecting their interests.
Speaker 11: Oh I thought that that would come.
Speaker 1: Know, I ran for president like you.
Speaker 11: I got millions, millions of contributions. They did not come
Speaker 11: from the executives, not one nickel of pack money from
Speaker 11: the pharmaceutical that they came.
Speaker 1: To work twenty twenty. In twenty twenty, you were the single.
Speaker 11: Largest because I received from minations from workers all over
Speaker 11: this country.
Speaker 1: Workers.
Speaker 11: You were not a nickel from corporate.
Speaker 10: You were the single largest hyarmaceutical dollars from.
Speaker 11: Workers in million. Yeah, out of two hundred million. All right,
Speaker 11: but you.
Speaker 1: Gotta confirm this guy. Now, You've got to confirm him. Now.
Speaker 1: You know what's going on. And this is what we've
Speaker 1: been talking about since Trump won. For a lot of
Speaker 1: different reasons, including smart lefties can see their days are numbered.
Speaker 1: A lot of these changes are now permanent. Americans are
Speaker 1: not going back. They're not going back to that lefty craziness.
Speaker 1: The spell's been broken. They've been liberated, and so what
Speaker 1: it has cost. A Wall Street journal guy had the
Speaker 1: perfect phrase for it's something I read last night. He says,
Speaker 1: the Democrats are in concussion protocol. Oh yeah, they have
Speaker 1: a Trump concussion and so they're skewered. Their brains aren't
Speaker 1: working right, They're just flailing. And it is a beautiful
Speaker 1: thing to see because it just it helps and helps
Speaker 1: and helps in so many ways.
Speaker 3: And long term, Dan, we heard what you just heard
Speaker 3: from Bernie Sanders's he's getting donations from the workers whatever.
Speaker 6: I think RFK Junior is right on the point.
Speaker 3: And given you go from yesterday, Dan, when we're mocking
Speaker 3: Bernie Sanders for screaming at RFK Junior, do.
Speaker 6: You support the onesies on this website?
Speaker 1: What a onesie?
Speaker 6: That's your best effort?
Speaker 3: And then today I'm listening Dan cash Patel, director of
Speaker 3: the FBI nominee and Adam Schiff, senator from Kelly's home
Speaker 3: state of California. The best he had was you help
Speaker 3: produce a song. But the J six choir Pero saying
Speaker 3: do you admit that? I'm like, that's your best shot
Speaker 3: of Cash Patel is a song.
Speaker 1: They've been exposed, right, That's why this is a tipping
Speaker 1: point moment, it goes beyond the normal pensulum swing and
Speaker 1: text or Dan, it sounds like Michael Bennett has been
Speaker 1: properly trained by Jared Poulis and how to talk to
Speaker 1: those that you think you are better than. And what
Speaker 1: a great point and the point being this too, right Ryan,
Speaker 1: that most often, almost always the most arrogant you know,
Speaker 1: like the Polis and the Bennett and all of that,
Speaker 1: it's just undeserved arrogance, and arrogance is never right, just
Speaker 1: shouldn't happen. We're all guilty of it at some point.
Speaker 1: But these people who are chronically arrogant, normally they're extremely insecure,
Speaker 1: and it's undeserved arrogance. I mean, what does Jarreed Polis
Speaker 1: have to be arrogant about?
Speaker 4: Right?
Speaker 1: He had great parents who have a tremendous story of
Speaker 1: this business, and they did brilliant things, and they worked
Speaker 1: real hard and they built this great business and they
Speaker 1: created all of this and yeah, they did tremendously well.
Speaker 1: And then you got Jared Poulis who's just bought his
Speaker 1: way into a bunch of offices. What does he have
Speaker 1: to be arrogant about? What does Michael Bennett have to
Speaker 1: be arrogant about anybody see DPS after he left that job,
Speaker 1: and what's he done in the Senate? Right? I mean
Speaker 1: you could have literally put you could take our dog
Speaker 1: tests right now right her brain is as big as
Speaker 1: a pee, literally, and she's really smart though you could
Speaker 1: take our dog tests. You could put her in that
Speaker 1: US Senate seat that either Bennet or Hick and Looper hold,
Speaker 1: and she would be as are more effective than they've been.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's just the truth. It's not meant to
Speaker 1: be personal. I'd like kicking Looper personally, and I'd probably
Speaker 1: like Bennett if we had a beer. But in terms
Speaker 1: of impact in the US Senate, it's been like air
Speaker 1: sitting in that seat. So what does he have to
Speaker 1: be arrogant about? Dan and Centennial. You're on the Dan
Speaker 1: Kapla Show.
Speaker 7: Welcome, Hey Dan, Thanks have been well since I doug
Speaker 7: to you. Lucky you so yesterday I'm no thought yesterday
Speaker 7: I was listening to Michael Bennett just disgrease himself talking
Speaker 7: to PI f K Junior.
Speaker 8: That is the most distraceful gadis talking Adam.
Speaker 7: You're a thing I ever saw an I mean, it
Speaker 7: was too ridiculous. So I was so livid, but I
Speaker 7: went online and looked it up. So in the last
Speaker 7: public record, Michael Bennett from Blackstone black Rock in Apollo Group,
Speaker 7: they've taken nearly two hundred thousand dollars. That's on that
Speaker 7: record I was looking at. And those three.
Speaker 8: Companies are highly invested in pharmacy.
Speaker 7: So you tell me why these people are up there
Speaker 7: rape and Hill because that's where their owners want them
Speaker 7: to say, Well, David, it's so fun to watch it
Speaker 7: be exposed.
Speaker 1: Boy, getting it exposed is great. And just watching thank
Speaker 1: you Dan, watching their helplessness right because they know right
Speaker 1: now that they're just helpless in the face of Trump.
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, they can vote against some things in
Speaker 1: the Senate, but Trump is on a roll. He's exposing
Speaker 1: them completely. Because anybody at this point, like Bennett, who
Speaker 1: stood up and said, oh yeah, Joe Biden, he's mentally sharp,
Speaker 1: he's mentally competent to be president, has just been exposed.
Speaker 1: Is not just a liar, but a liar on the
Speaker 1: stuff that matters most. They've been exposed on this whole
Speaker 1: goofy trans business. Oh yeah, carve up the kids, carve
Speaker 1: up the kids. Are your bigot. Oh yeah that those
Speaker 1: men and boys penises they got to be in your
Speaker 1: girls shower, You're some kind of biggot. They've been exposed
Speaker 1: on this open border thing where all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: you know, people, whether they're criminals or not, get to
Speaker 1: flood in unlimited numbers. They've been exposed on all of this.
Speaker 1: So right now, it's as if they're sitting there naked
Speaker 1: and can you think, Ryan, and this is bipartisan of
Speaker 1: one single senator that anyone would want to see naked, right,
Speaker 1: I mean, so it's like they're sitting there naked right now,
Speaker 1: and they've been exposed personally. They've been a guy on
Speaker 1: their own integrity level. They've been exposed politically on a
Speaker 1: policy level. Trump is on a roll, and here's the key,
Speaker 1: with a really talented, deep young bench of Republicans behind him,
Speaker 1: in every reason to believe that unless the GOP screws
Speaker 1: it royally, that the GOP is going to rule for
Speaker 1: a long time to come, but only if they deliver.
Speaker 1: But guess what they're already delivering at least Trump is.
Speaker 1: So that's a pretty good start. Eight five to five
Speaker 1: for zero five eight two five five The number takes
Speaker 1: d five seven seven three nine, And I understand why
Speaker 1: any intelligent caller would say what our last one did,
Speaker 1: which is a money motivation, etc. I submit to you
Speaker 1: that it goes way, way way beyond that. It goes
Speaker 1: to the point I just made. All these lefties now
Speaker 1: are getting barraged by people panicking. They can see it
Speaker 1: all slipping away. They can see the scales have fallen
Speaker 1: off of America's eyes, that they can see their time
Speaker 1: in the sun is not just fading away. It's like
Speaker 1: they've gone from the penthouse to the outhouse and they're
Speaker 1: about to sink deeper than that. So they're panicked, and
Speaker 1: they're calling up their senators and everything, say you gotta fight,
Speaker 1: you gotta fight. So then they start throwing wild punches
Speaker 1: just to throw punches, and then they lose more and
Speaker 1: more credibility. They look more and more stupid, and Republicans
Speaker 1: look more and more like a better choice. So they're
Speaker 1: caught in this this stem spiral right now, this death spiral,
Speaker 1: and it's a beautiful thing to behold. Eight five zer
Speaker 1: five eight two five five.
Speaker 3: Then number did you notice too, Dan with Bernie Sanders,
Speaker 3: He told our kitchener, I knew this would come up.
Speaker 6: Wait a minute, why would he anticipate that? About the
Speaker 6: big pharm of money?
Speaker 1: But again, think about what's happened with the left and
Speaker 1: look locally right, I mean, like Mike Johnston, all this
Speaker 1: really goofy stuff that he's saying. And I don't mean
Speaker 1: to get personal, but come on, mister Maryy, you got
Speaker 1: disasters all over the city. Spend a little less time
Speaker 1: on the hair. Did you see his new hairstyle? It's
Speaker 1: what all I'm telling you is, he's a good looking
Speaker 1: guy right now, policy totally in the tank. You know
Speaker 1: that the place is going to hell. But he's a
Speaker 1: good looking guy. But with all of all these fires
Speaker 1: all over the city and all this terrible stuff going on,
Speaker 1: he must spend an hour a day on his hair.
Speaker 1: Are you telling me you have not seen that new hairstyle?
Speaker 1: How about Johnston? Yeah, it's just kind of bit. It's bigger.
Speaker 6: It's like the same sizes.
Speaker 1: Tig with this big swoop sound over his forehead. It
Speaker 1: must take an hour to do. You look at me. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know how much time I spent on my hair
Speaker 1: each day, which is maybe two seconds on a good day.
Speaker 6: It looks better than mine. Yeah, Mike Johnston.
Speaker 3: I don't know people in the Midwest will recognize a reference,
Speaker 3: but the Elias Brothers, big.
Speaker 6: Boy, that's kind of what he looks like.
Speaker 1: Oh you know, oh yeah, but anybody who just you know,
Speaker 1: and again he's a good looking guy. Why do you
Speaker 1: have to do that? All I'm saying is how long
Speaker 1: must that take him? Like, look at some pictures from
Speaker 1: yesterday when he had his big state of the City whatever,
Speaker 1: and then set a bunch of stuff that sound like,
Speaker 1: you know, some drunk hippies at three am or something.
Speaker 1: But but yeah, so anyway, it is fun to watch
Speaker 1: all this eight F five ur zero five eight two
Speaker 1: five five The number takes d A N five seven
Speaker 1: seven through nine. When we come back, Your reaction to
Speaker 1: that horror last night, President Trump blaming DEI? Do you
Speaker 1: think he's right on that? And some more really hot
Speaker 1: takes from these hominees on the Hill today, including cash Hotel.
Speaker 1: You're on the Dan Caplass Show.
Speaker 6: And now back to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
Speaker 8: Know the names of the sixty seven people who were killed,
Speaker 8: and you are blaming Democrats and DEI policies and air
Speaker 8: tragic control and seemingly the member of the US military
Speaker 8: who was flying.
Speaker 1: That black Hawk helicopter.
Speaker 6: Don't you think you're getting ahead of the investigation right now?
Speaker 2: I don't think so at all. I don't think with
Speaker 2: the names of the people, I mean, the names of
Speaker 2: the people that are on the plane, you think that's
Speaker 2: going to make a Differencely, they are a group of
Speaker 2: people that have lost their lives. If you want a
Speaker 2: list of the names, we can give you that. We'll
Speaker 2: be giving that very soon with in coordination with American Airlines.
Speaker 2: We're in coordination very strongly, obviously with the military.
Speaker 1: But I think that's not a very smart question.
Speaker 2: I'm surprised coming from you.
Speaker 1: That President Trump getting after it this morning. And here's
Speaker 1: the broader point. I like and listen, at the end
Speaker 1: of the day, the facts will lead wherever they lead
Speaker 1: in terms of cause. Was it DEI, was it something else?
Speaker 1: A lot of reporting right now that there was one
Speaker 1: controller for two stations, which, as I opened the show with,
Speaker 1: if that's true, that's criminal. Somebody needs to be charged
Speaker 1: with criminal negligence and go to jail if that story
Speaker 1: is true. Whatever manager whoever decided that was going to
Speaker 1: be the case. Oh yeah, we know we need too
Speaker 1: for planes to safely land, but we're only going to
Speaker 1: have one. That's criminal negligence. And I'm telling you, safety
Speaker 1: in America overall would dramatically improve if they started sending
Speaker 1: some of these high level types, high level corporate types,
Speaker 1: to jail for criminal negligence, because listen, I've been suing
Speaker 1: corporations for forty years. When you have somebody who sits
Speaker 1: there and they know they have a product, they have
Speaker 1: a situation, they have a staffing, they have a whatever
Speaker 1: that they know is probably going to get somebody killed
Speaker 1: or are real strong likely of it, and they say,
Speaker 1: you know what, it's that's okay, acceptable casually rate, it's
Speaker 1: cheaper to pay the claims. Then to fix the problem,
Speaker 1: those people need to be charged with criminal negligence when
Speaker 1: you get true recklessness like that, because what so they
Speaker 1: have their corporation write a big check and buy off
Speaker 1: a case and then they just keep doing it. So, no,
Speaker 1: if that's the case, if some manager there decided, yeah,
Speaker 1: we need to for planes to land safely, but we're
Speaker 1: only going to have one, somebody needs to be charged.
Speaker 1: I don't know if that's where the facts are going
Speaker 1: to lead let's find out where the facts lead. But this,
Speaker 1: I do like that that Trump is making it clear
Speaker 1: we're no longer accepting mediocrity. And lord knows the last
Speaker 1: place you should accept it as an operating room or
Speaker 1: an air traffic control tower. And but yet you see
Speaker 1: it happening all over America. So I love the fact
Speaker 1: he's laying down the gauntlin and saying we're not doing
Speaker 1: that anymore. It's got to be merit based, and nothing
Speaker 1: can interfere with the with things being merit based. And
Speaker 1: listen when people say, well it's not merit based, that
Speaker 1: doesn't mean it has to be gender, or it has
Speaker 1: to be race or any of that stuff. You can
Speaker 1: have all sorts of things interfere with something being merit based.
Speaker 1: It can be political appointees, it can be people who
Speaker 1: give money, it can be all sorts of other considerations. No,
Speaker 1: we need each and every one of these positions filled
Speaker 1: based on merit. That's what doctor King said, right, That's
Speaker 1: what doctor King said, and that's the way it needs
Speaker 1: to be. And I have no idea where the facts
Speaker 1: are going to lead on this. I have no idea
Speaker 1: of the gender, the color whatever of anybody up in
Speaker 1: that control town, And if everybody was this color or
Speaker 1: that gender, it doesn't mean they're color or gender had
Speaker 1: anything to do with it. But I think the point
Speaker 1: being that we cannot accept these kind of failures, and
Speaker 1: we've been having these near misses all over the country. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we can't accept that in any aspect of life. That's
Speaker 1: not who we are as Americans. And that brings me
Speaker 1: back to this whole legalization of drugs things. Jerry Brown said,
Speaker 1: it's hard to get much further left than Jerry Brown.
Speaker 1: How many stoners can you have and still be a
Speaker 1: great state? He said that about California. How many stoners
Speaker 1: can you have and still be a great country. So
Speaker 1: when you get the left flooding this country with drugs,
Speaker 1: and I'm not saying drugs had anything to do with
Speaker 1: that crash, have no idea. I'm talking more broadly because
Speaker 1: we all know the more you flood Colorado with drugs,
Speaker 1: the more you flood the country with dope, you know
Speaker 1: that the lower the standards are going to be. It's just, yeah,
Speaker 1: we've we've got to reverse this. That's not who we
Speaker 1: are as a people, and it shouldn't take a horror
Speaker 1: like last night to cause us to wake up and say, no,
Speaker 1: we can't tolerate this. Where else? Right, Oh, let me
Speaker 1: get to some of these texts. Dan, watching the confirmation
Speaker 1: hearings is like watching married people argue. After the yelling starts,
Speaker 1: it's over and in the end no one remembers what
Speaker 1: the argument was about. That from Jim, I think you
Speaker 1: may mean it in the sense that I think everybody
Speaker 1: expects these nominees to get confirmed.
Speaker 4: Right.
Speaker 1: I expect every single Trump nominee will get confirmed, probably
Speaker 1: probably by the Senate, if not by recess appointment. But
Speaker 1: nominees have done so well so far. Listen. I understand
Speaker 1: that our FA RFK Junior has some weird blank that
Speaker 1: I don't agree with, but he also has some great stuff.
Speaker 1: And when people say there's too much weird stuff, what
Speaker 1: I say to them is, you can't get any weirder
Speaker 1: than the Democrats. The same people saying there's too much
Speaker 1: weird stuff from RFK, he can't be the guy. How
Speaker 1: much weirder can you get? Then all these Democrat nominees
Speaker 1: one after another, standing up there, and all these Democrats
Speaker 1: senators one after another standing up there and saying, oh, yeah, no, no,
Speaker 1: that baby that baby had nine months, you should be
Speaker 1: able to dismember that baby. That's it, right, I mean,
Speaker 1: it doesn't get any weirder than that. So you compare
Speaker 1: rfk's weirdness to the left's weirdness, it's not even close.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I expect RFK one way or the other
Speaker 1: is going to be in that job. Texters Dan, all
Speaker 1: this confirmation here and stuff is hilarious to me. I've
Speaker 1: also decided that if the Democrats are against it, I'm
Speaker 1: for it. So that from no co Dan, Dan, you're
Speaker 1: mentioned of envisioning any of our senators sitting they could
Speaker 1: just made me throw up a little in my mouth.
Speaker 1: It was kind of a figure speech that Bennett and
Speaker 1: these other Democratic senators were just exposing themselves, and it
Speaker 1: was not pretty because they know, right, they know that
Speaker 1: they've been stripped naked in front of the whole nation.
Speaker 1: Not bodily, but they've been stripped naked because all this
Speaker 1: stuff they said was absolutely essugil. You know, boys and
Speaker 1: men and women girls and women showers and in their
Speaker 1: sports and and you know, cutting the private parts off kids,
Speaker 1: and and you know, open borders and allowing people flowing.
Speaker 1: If you don't support all that you're some kind of
Speaker 1: racist bigot. They've been exposed. That was all nonsense. It's
Speaker 1: all garbage, it's all national suicide America. Now the scales
Speaker 1: are off, the eyes. America doesn't want to go back
Speaker 1: to those days. So these smart Democrats know it. You
Speaker 1: know that the gig is up, so you're just watching
Speaker 1: them panic
