WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:03.520 This is Dan Kaplis, and welcome to today's online podcast 2 00:00:03.640 --> 00:00:05.719 edition of The Dan Kaplis Show. Please be sure to 3 00:00:05.759 --> 00:00:08.240 give us a five star rating if you'd be so kind, 4 00:00:08.320 --> 00:00:11.599 and to subscribe, download, and listen to the show every 5 00:00:11.679 --> 00:00:14.199 single day on your favorite podcast platform. 6 00:00:15.039 --> 00:00:15.919 How wild this is? 7 00:00:16.079 --> 00:00:18.719 Right just there, getting ready to start the segment watching 8 00:00:18.760 --> 00:00:23.480 this Elon Musk rocket ship take off, just launching folks 9 00:00:23.559 --> 00:00:28.879 up to rescue the astronauts stranded at the International Space Station. 10 00:00:29.280 --> 00:00:32.920 So, boy, I personally am glad. 11 00:00:32.719 --> 00:00:35.479 That Elon Musk is very, very very involved in the 12 00:00:35.520 --> 00:00:38.119 Trump administration. I'm not saying he's perfect, none of us are, 13 00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:42.600 but boy, talk about a brilliant guy, courageous guy, and 14 00:00:43.000 --> 00:00:45.079 above all. And I don't want to get into the weeds, 15 00:00:45.119 --> 00:00:46.600 but this is what I think the left is so 16 00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:49.000 terrified of with Musk. Two things, right, the money, because 17 00:00:49.039 --> 00:00:51.240 he can alter the playing field. The left has been 18 00:00:51.600 --> 00:00:53.640 used to being able to buy the playing field through 19 00:00:53.719 --> 00:00:57.359 Soros and others. Musk can alter the playing field and 20 00:00:57.359 --> 00:00:59.840 he has right, We've seen it. But the thing I 21 00:00:59.880 --> 00:01:02.960 can I think they're even more scared of is when 22 00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:05.319 it comes to doze and it comes to looking in 23 00:01:05.400 --> 00:01:08.719 how money spent and everything else. This is the first 24 00:01:08.760 --> 00:01:11.519 time I'm aware of that the Republicans have had somebody 25 00:01:11.959 --> 00:01:16.040 who is really absolutely brilliant, you know, when it comes 26 00:01:16.159 --> 00:01:20.560 to electronically stored information. And I can tell you from 27 00:01:20.599 --> 00:01:22.879 my own law practice, where I spend much of my 28 00:01:23.120 --> 00:01:27.000 time when I'm representing injured folks, much of my time, 29 00:01:27.560 --> 00:01:32.319 you know, doing the detective work finding the electronically stored 30 00:01:32.439 --> 00:01:36.439 information of the defending corporation or whatever, Digging in there. Okay, 31 00:01:36.519 --> 00:01:38.519 what's in there? What emails are in there? Have there 32 00:01:38.519 --> 00:01:41.680 been emails you know redacted? Have there been emails that 33 00:01:41.719 --> 00:01:43.840 have been destroyed? And then we can find the trace 34 00:01:43.879 --> 00:01:47.239 of those emails and maybe resurrect them. But Musk and 35 00:01:47.560 --> 00:01:52.439 this team of young techies he has, from everything I've 36 00:01:52.439 --> 00:01:55.719 read so far, it looks like they are particularly good 37 00:01:56.439 --> 00:02:00.959 at being able to track down that information, recogni patterns, 38 00:02:01.480 --> 00:02:04.879 and then be able to get to the bottom of 39 00:02:04.920 --> 00:02:08.639 some some nasty stuff that if you took a traditional 40 00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:12.639 kind of approach that I'm guessing most government investigators take, 41 00:02:13.319 --> 00:02:15.439 you may not find. I think that's what the left 42 00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:20.400 is most terrified of with Elon Musk. But yeah, looks 43 00:02:20.400 --> 00:02:23.639 like hopefully his rocket is up there successfully. 44 00:02:23.680 --> 00:02:26.719 Is that right? Ryan? Looks like other. 45 00:02:26.599 --> 00:02:30.240 Successful awful arms going to embrace it when it comes back. 46 00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:33.319 I'm sure they will. I'm sure they will do that. Hey, 47 00:02:33.919 --> 00:02:35.719 you know, this should really make you mad. I don't 48 00:02:35.719 --> 00:02:39.759 care if you're a Democrat, Republican, unaffiliated, whatever. This should 49 00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:42.120 make you mad because chances are you're either listening in 50 00:02:42.120 --> 00:02:43.680 the car or you were in the car at some 51 00:02:43.800 --> 00:02:44.400 point today. 52 00:02:44.439 --> 00:02:46.400 And as you know, unless. 53 00:02:46.039 --> 00:02:49.120 You're one of our brain brave armed forces, military police, 54 00:02:49.120 --> 00:02:52.919 et cetera, firefighters, then the greatest danger you and I 55 00:02:53.000 --> 00:02:55.840 will ever be in is when we get in our 56 00:02:55.919 --> 00:02:59.680 cars on Colorado Roads, or really any roads, but Colorado 57 00:02:59.759 --> 00:03:02.879 Roads in particular, because obviously the Left has pupped a 58 00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:06.400 bunch of druggies in here and everything else. So what 59 00:03:06.520 --> 00:03:08.800 have they done now after all the stuff they've done 60 00:03:08.879 --> 00:03:14.719 before to make the roads more dangerous? They just really 61 00:03:15.159 --> 00:03:17.439 topped themselves in a way that I think is going 62 00:03:17.520 --> 00:03:20.400 to make people furious at cross party lines if they 63 00:03:20.479 --> 00:03:24.280 actually find out about it. So Channel seven fortunately did 64 00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:24.879 a story here. 65 00:03:24.919 --> 00:03:25.199 It is. 66 00:03:26.560 --> 00:03:29.280 Colorado's handling of the immigration crisis, as you know, has 67 00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:31.960 been roundly criticized by the new Trump administration. 68 00:03:32.199 --> 00:03:34.479 Just last week, Denver's mayor was in the hot seat 69 00:03:34.520 --> 00:03:37.439 on Capitol Hill, grilled in front of members of Congress 70 00:03:37.759 --> 00:03:41.639 over the city's immigration policies. Mike Johnston was joined by 71 00:03:41.639 --> 00:03:44.759 other Democratic mayors to testify before the House Oversight and 72 00:03:44.800 --> 00:03:48.680 Government Reform Committee. Now, state lawmakers want to allow undocumented 73 00:03:48.680 --> 00:03:50.759 immigrants to obtain a driver's license. 74 00:03:50.840 --> 00:03:53.680 Every seventh question Lopez explains why they say this move 75 00:03:53.719 --> 00:03:55.000 could make all the safer. 76 00:03:55.199 --> 00:03:58.599 Yeah, this bill is going to help a lot of 77 00:03:58.680 --> 00:03:59.879 undocumented people. 78 00:04:00.240 --> 00:04:03.240 A new law going into effect on March thirty first, 79 00:04:03.360 --> 00:04:06.479 will fast track the process for immigrants to obtain a 80 00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:07.439 driver's license. 81 00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:10.240 But not only are they going to know the rules 82 00:04:10.280 --> 00:04:12.520 and the laws of the road, but they're going to 83 00:04:12.520 --> 00:04:16.240 be able to get insurance on their cars and plates. 84 00:04:16.560 --> 00:04:20.040 Yeaval Days, a driving instructor at the American Driving Academy 85 00:04:20.079 --> 00:04:22.639 in Aurora, says it'll benefit the whole state. 86 00:04:23.240 --> 00:04:27.399 Many people are already driving without driver's licenses, so this 87 00:04:27.519 --> 00:04:30.480 gives them the opportunity to be able to drive safely 88 00:04:30.600 --> 00:04:31.199 and legally. 89 00:04:31.439 --> 00:04:36.439 Colorado already allows undocumented immigrants to obtain their driver's licenses, 90 00:04:36.519 --> 00:04:39.040 but they must live in the state for two years 91 00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:42.680 and provide a Social Security or I ten number. This 92 00:04:42.759 --> 00:04:46.079 new law will streamline that process by getting rid of 93 00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:49.480 those and several other requirements, and now it is going 94 00:04:49.519 --> 00:04:52.279 to be simply just a passport and current proof of 95 00:04:52.279 --> 00:04:55.639 address for immigrants like I'm my bias, It'll be an 96 00:04:55.680 --> 00:04:58.279 immediate process as long as they have an ID from 97 00:04:58.279 --> 00:05:01.319 their home country and proof of address in Colorado. 98 00:05:04.199 --> 00:05:06.680 But not everyone agrees with these changes. 99 00:05:06.920 --> 00:05:10.720 The biggest concern I have is no different than last year. 100 00:05:11.439 --> 00:05:12.800 It's the public aspect. 101 00:05:13.319 --> 00:05:16.480 Public safety aspect, of course, I mean think about it, 102 00:05:16.480 --> 00:05:19.519 think about what polists in the left are doing, and 103 00:05:19.560 --> 00:05:23.240 it becomes long a few days. All you have to 104 00:05:23.279 --> 00:05:27.639 do you come into this country illegally, right, all you 105 00:05:27.839 --> 00:05:31.680 have to do is show your passport or home i 106 00:05:31.800 --> 00:05:33.759 D show you have a place to live here, and 107 00:05:33.800 --> 00:05:37.879 you get a Colorado driver's license. It has to be 108 00:05:37.920 --> 00:05:41.279 a top five magnet, right, So they are going out 109 00:05:41.279 --> 00:05:42.920 of their way, The Left is going out of their 110 00:05:42.959 --> 00:05:47.959 way to attract folks to come here illegally. Well, why 111 00:05:47.959 --> 00:05:51.399 do you think Johnston and polists, the whole Democratic Party 112 00:05:51.439 --> 00:05:53.920 in Colorado, why do you think they want to attract 113 00:05:54.199 --> 00:05:59.680 more folks here illegally attract here more folks. And by 114 00:05:59.680 --> 00:06:02.720 the way, there's no screening, criminal background check, or anything 115 00:06:02.720 --> 00:06:05.240 else to get this driver's license. So, as we all know, 116 00:06:05.480 --> 00:06:09.279 a lot of otherwise good people come over the border illegally. 117 00:06:09.319 --> 00:06:11.920 They shouldn't, but they do. But at the same time, 118 00:06:11.959 --> 00:06:14.040 you get a lot of hardened criminals who come over too. 119 00:06:14.920 --> 00:06:17.600 And so why do Polis and Mike Johnson all these 120 00:06:17.600 --> 00:06:20.959 other Democrats want to give hardened criminals coming in from 121 00:06:20.959 --> 00:06:23.399 the other side of the border a driver's license? But 122 00:06:23.439 --> 00:06:26.040 more importantly, why do they want to attract them here? 123 00:06:26.079 --> 00:06:28.800 Because they know I mean, this is like the ultimate 124 00:06:28.839 --> 00:06:31.839 welcome Matt, right, just come here, show. 125 00:06:31.720 --> 00:06:33.920 Us an ID, We'll give you a driver's license. 126 00:06:35.600 --> 00:06:37.800 Wow. But whatever their motive is, and we all know 127 00:06:37.839 --> 00:06:40.680 their motive, right, we all know their motive, which is 128 00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:45.279 they see these individuals as votes and they are importing 129 00:06:45.519 --> 00:06:47.120 people here to vote for them. 130 00:06:47.319 --> 00:06:48.720 I mean, we talked about on this show. 131 00:06:48.759 --> 00:06:51.160 You can see it at Dan Capitalist at Twitter where 132 00:06:51.240 --> 00:06:54.680 Hickelooper and Bennett are pushing a bill that would say 133 00:06:54.800 --> 00:06:58.680 ICE cannot detain any illegal immigrant when they're at the 134 00:06:58.720 --> 00:07:01.480 voting booths. Think about that for a second. It's right there, 135 00:07:01.519 --> 00:07:03.720 look at the Bill. I've got it on my Twitter. 136 00:07:04.519 --> 00:07:07.000 Why in the world would Hickin look for in Bennett 137 00:07:07.480 --> 00:07:10.399 want to stop by us from detaining somebody here illegally 138 00:07:10.439 --> 00:07:11.560 when they're at the voting booth. 139 00:07:13.199 --> 00:07:16.639 I think it's pretty obvious, right, What other conclusion do 140 00:07:16.680 --> 00:07:17.040 you draw? 141 00:07:17.759 --> 00:07:20.600 Let me get to some text on this, But I 142 00:07:20.680 --> 00:07:23.360 hope what would outrage most people who will probably not 143 00:07:23.399 --> 00:07:26.800 even hear about this, what will outrage most people who 144 00:07:26.879 --> 00:07:31.639 do hear about it, is that, by definition, inarguably, it 145 00:07:31.720 --> 00:07:35.279 puts you and your family in more danger. Puts everybody 146 00:07:35.759 --> 00:07:40.120 here legally on Colorado's roadways in more danger, because, ay, 147 00:07:40.160 --> 00:07:43.360 each time you add a driver from anywhere, it increases 148 00:07:43.639 --> 00:07:47.879 the danger. Then when you're trying to attract more people 149 00:07:47.959 --> 00:07:54.240 to come here illegally, that increases the danger. Plus because 150 00:07:54.279 --> 00:07:57.800 think about that, you're not only attracting more people here 151 00:07:57.839 --> 00:08:01.519 to be on our roads, but you're attracting people to 152 00:08:01.639 --> 00:08:05.319 come here who have not been driving on American roads. Ryan, 153 00:08:05.360 --> 00:08:07.759 have you ever been anywhere else in the world as 154 00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:10.759 crazy as our roads are in Colorado, particularly crazy because 155 00:08:10.759 --> 00:08:13.360 of what the left's doing. Yeah, even before this, but 156 00:08:14.040 --> 00:08:16.560 there are a lot of countries where it's even more 157 00:08:16.600 --> 00:08:19.360 insane on the road. So what Jared pol Is and 158 00:08:19.439 --> 00:08:23.560 the Democratic Party in Colorado is saying, Hey, you don't 159 00:08:23.560 --> 00:08:26.319 have to have driven a single day on American roads. 160 00:08:26.879 --> 00:08:30.720 Whatever country you're from, you're here illegally. You know, you 161 00:08:30.879 --> 00:08:32.679 show up, you don't have to be here more than 162 00:08:32.679 --> 00:08:35.159 a minute. Just have that ID and we're going to 163 00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:37.720 hand you a driver's license. I mean, think about how 164 00:08:37.799 --> 00:08:42.679 much more dangerous folks who come here who have not 165 00:08:42.720 --> 00:08:44.720 been driving American roads are likely to be. 166 00:08:45.960 --> 00:08:47.799 Yeah, I've driven the four to ZHO one in Ontario 167 00:08:48.000 --> 00:08:49.799 and it's a little bit different. Yeah, to read in 168 00:08:49.840 --> 00:08:54.120 kilometers instead of miles per hour and so forth. But yeah, yeah, 169 00:08:54.159 --> 00:08:57.000 I mean you can't have people just the premise that 170 00:08:57.000 --> 00:09:00.000 they're talking about here too, this one, Well they're driving anyway. 171 00:09:01.879 --> 00:09:04.000 What what about the ability to read our roads? 172 00:09:04.200 --> 00:09:06.799 I know, well, Dan I talked about that earlier on 173 00:09:06.840 --> 00:09:10.720 my program Sheet Plug about the runaway truck driver who 174 00:09:10.759 --> 00:09:13.120 you knew couldn't read English in the in the getaway 175 00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:16.759 ramps and then ended up killing five people in an inferno. 176 00:09:16.960 --> 00:09:19.919 I have so many of those cases. Yeah, it's it's 177 00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:20.639 just terrific. 178 00:09:20.799 --> 00:09:23.519 But but again, it comes back to just not caring 179 00:09:23.519 --> 00:09:27.279 about innocent human life. But whether you want to talk 180 00:09:27.320 --> 00:09:30.200 about the ability to read road signs or or whether 181 00:09:31.120 --> 00:09:35.080 people have any experience at all American roadways, anybody knows 182 00:09:35.159 --> 00:09:38.639 elementally that if you put somebody on a roadways who 183 00:09:38.639 --> 00:09:42.159 has never driven in this country, they are likely to 184 00:09:42.159 --> 00:09:44.759 be more dangerous, right, just lack of familiarity, lack of 185 00:09:44.759 --> 00:09:47.159 familiar to it, the flow, et cetera, whatever bad habits 186 00:09:47.159 --> 00:09:50.000 they may bring from whatever country they've been driving in. 187 00:09:50.840 --> 00:09:56.679 It's it's literally second abortion. Maybe arguably that the most 188 00:09:56.720 --> 00:09:59.320 blatant disrespect for innocent human life is the Left shows 189 00:09:59.360 --> 00:10:03.159 and the biggest information that they are so desperate to 190 00:10:03.240 --> 00:10:06.639 get folks up here illegally to vote for them, that 191 00:10:06.679 --> 00:10:10.039 they are willing to just get citizens killed and maimed 192 00:10:10.039 --> 00:10:13.600 on the roadways. It's hopefully people start to pay attention 193 00:10:13.679 --> 00:10:16.639 to that. Three or three someone three eight two five 194 00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:19.120 five text d A N five seven seven three nine 195 00:10:19.159 --> 00:10:21.440 will come back.

You know, we're going to 202 00:10:45.159 --> 00:10:49.159 be taking you know, questions from from listeners who are 203 00:10:49.159 --> 00:10:53.279 going through through some things and just need a little advice. 204 00:10:54.320 --> 00:10:58.080 Wow, Michelle Obama, what kind of advice do you think 205 00:10:58.080 --> 00:11:01.120 she's going to give?

Hey, if you just joined us, thank you. 231 00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:12.799 What we're talking about is the latest truly fatal lunacy 232 00:12:12.919 --> 00:12:15.519 from the Left. If you had any doubt about the 233 00:12:15.559 --> 00:12:18.440 fact that they don't value your life or your family's life, 234 00:12:18.519 --> 00:12:22.159 that doubt should now be gone, as they have starting 235 00:12:22.200 --> 00:12:26.080 the twenty fifth. Now, in Colorado, any legal immigrant, a 236 00:12:26.159 --> 00:12:29.000 legal immigrant from anywhere over the world can just come 237 00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:32.720 across the border, come straight to Colorado and it doesn't 238 00:12:32.720 --> 00:12:34.240 have to be here a full day, as long as 239 00:12:34.279 --> 00:12:36.600 they can show they're living here and show an ID 240 00:12:36.679 --> 00:12:39.200 from their home country. At that point they get a 241 00:12:39.200 --> 00:12:42.960 Colorado driver's license. What could possibly go wrong? Let's find 242 00:12:42.960 --> 00:12:44.879 out from Justin and Little Ten. You're on the Dan 243 00:12:44.960 --> 00:12:45.600 Caplis show. 244 00:12:45.600 --> 00:12:50.559 Welcome Justin. Hello, Justin. 245 00:12:52.200 --> 00:12:56.120 The deep thinker, deep thinker, the strong, silent type, which 246 00:12:56.159 --> 00:12:58.960 is great in life. Maybe not radio, but great in life, 247 00:12:59.360 --> 00:13:01.120 John and beautiful Fort Lupton. 248 00:13:01.159 --> 00:13:02.360 You're on the Dan Kaplas Show. 249 00:13:02.399 --> 00:13:07.559 Welcome, thank you. Sure I haven't called you before, Dan, 250 00:13:07.759 --> 00:13:11.559 but thank you. I was just wondering these people that 251 00:13:11.679 --> 00:13:16.519 get this driver's license who aren't citizens, aren't aren't supposed 252 00:13:16.559 --> 00:13:20.480 to be here? Do they? Are they required to get 253 00:13:20.720 --> 00:13:22.480 insurance for their automobile? 254 00:13:23.080 --> 00:13:26.200 Yes, well, I'm assuming so I'm not seeing that in 255 00:13:26.240 --> 00:13:29.440 the bill, but it's probably in the the underlying requirements. 256 00:13:30.039 --> 00:13:32.559 But let me let me just let me just so. 257 00:13:32.879 --> 00:13:37.360 I may have spoken too quickly on that, but this 258 00:13:37.919 --> 00:13:41.399 Colorado Road In Community Safety Act talk about an obscenely 259 00:13:41.480 --> 00:13:46.000 backwards named law. Right, let me just read you quick 260 00:13:46.000 --> 00:13:49.200 bill summary and for those who haven't seen it yet, 261 00:13:49.440 --> 00:13:52.559 the Colorado Road In Community Safety Act authorizes the issuance 262 00:13:52.600 --> 00:13:55.559 of a driver's license or identification card to an individual 263 00:13:55.639 --> 00:13:58.879 who is not lawfully present in the United States if 264 00:13:58.919 --> 00:14:03.600 the individual meets certain requirements. The Act changes these requirements 265 00:14:03.600 --> 00:14:06.600 by so this is the new law, repealing the requirement 266 00:14:06.639 --> 00:14:09.480 that the applicant have filed a Colorado resident tax return, 267 00:14:09.840 --> 00:14:13.080 repealing the requirement that the applicant demonstrate residency in the 268 00:14:13.080 --> 00:14:17.600 state for the immediate immediately preceding two years, repealing the 269 00:14:17.600 --> 00:14:21.600 requirement that the applicant provide a documented Social Security number 270 00:14:21.799 --> 00:14:27.440 or individual taxpayer identification number, and allowing an applicant to 271 00:14:27.519 --> 00:14:32.559 present a passport, consular identification card, or military identification document 272 00:14:32.879 --> 00:14:38.960 from the applicant's country of origin if that is unexpired 273 00:14:39.159 --> 00:14:43.759 or expired less than ten years before the applicant's application 274 00:14:43.919 --> 00:14:45.000 for a driver's license. 275 00:14:45.240 --> 00:14:47.279 So you can present here in. 276 00:14:47.200 --> 00:14:53.919 Colorado, according to Jared Polis, and expired and expired identification 277 00:14:54.080 --> 00:14:57.039 card from a foreign country as long as it expired 278 00:14:57.080 --> 00:14:58.200 within the last ten years. 279 00:14:58.720 --> 00:14:59.600 The way I read. 280 00:14:59.440 --> 00:15:05.399 That, well, that's kind of zippity, dude. I mean, what 281 00:15:05.600 --> 00:15:10.840 happens if, say, somebody who's off the illegal immigrant that 282 00:15:10.919 --> 00:15:14.879 has a driver's license piles into my car and injures 283 00:15:14.919 --> 00:15:18.639 me and doesn't have any insurance? 284 00:15:18.840 --> 00:15:19.519 Yeah? 285 00:15:19.639 --> 00:15:22.120 Can I sue the state of Colorado for that? 286 00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:22.759 No? 287 00:15:22.759 --> 00:15:26.919 No, you can't, my friend, under current law. I personally 288 00:15:26.960 --> 00:15:30.399 believe that laws need to be passed that would allow 289 00:15:30.840 --> 00:15:35.120 injured people and those damaged other ways to sue sanctuary 290 00:15:35.159 --> 00:15:38.799 cities and states for the damages caused by people here illegally, 291 00:15:38.879 --> 00:15:43.879 because that would end the problem almost instantly at that 292 00:15:44.039 --> 00:15:46.519 point that the city and state would have its own 293 00:15:46.559 --> 00:15:50.279 selfish financial motive to stop what they should have stopped 294 00:15:50.279 --> 00:15:51.080 a long time ago. 295 00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:56.120 Well, it's kind of interesting. I hope I don't run 296 00:15:56.159 --> 00:15:57.320 into anybody. 297 00:15:57.000 --> 00:16:00.559 Well, well, my friend, unfortunately, that is beyond your control. 298 00:16:00.759 --> 00:16:03.840 And what the Colorado Democratic Party is now doing is 299 00:16:03.879 --> 00:16:08.240 going out of its way to magnetize and attract even 300 00:16:08.320 --> 00:16:11.399 more in much larger numbers folks to come here illegally. 301 00:16:12.320 --> 00:16:12.879 Think about that. 302 00:16:12.919 --> 00:16:16.559 What more could you do to send the message across 303 00:16:16.600 --> 00:16:18.480 the world, Hey, you want to come to this country 304 00:16:18.519 --> 00:16:21.519 I legally, and you want a place that is going 305 00:16:21.559 --> 00:16:23.720 to welcome you, a state that's going to welcome you 306 00:16:23.799 --> 00:16:24.799 and embrace you. 307 00:16:25.559 --> 00:16:26.720 What more could you do? Then? 308 00:16:26.759 --> 00:16:30.639 Say to folks, Hey, the very first day here, what 309 00:16:30.720 --> 00:16:33.759 we're going to give you a Colorado driver's license. You 310 00:16:33.799 --> 00:16:36.440 don't have to have been here for a while. In 311 00:16:36.600 --> 00:16:38.759 this one example, you can have an idea that's been 312 00:16:38.799 --> 00:16:39.679 expired nine. 313 00:16:39.519 --> 00:16:42.279 Years and we'll still hand you a driver's license. 314 00:16:42.960 --> 00:16:44.600 Yeah. 315 00:16:44.639 --> 00:16:45.759 So why do you think they're doing it? 316 00:16:45.840 --> 00:16:48.159 I think clearly they view all these folks coming here 317 00:16:48.159 --> 00:16:52.360 illegally as their voters. Justin in Littleton, I hope is 318 00:16:52.399 --> 00:16:53.879 back with us. 319 00:16:54.240 --> 00:16:55.799 I did, sorry, Yeah, you went to me and I 320 00:16:55.919 --> 00:16:57.960 cut that. So when I was sixteen, I had apply 321 00:16:58.039 --> 00:17:01.240 for a driver's license permit. If the one hundred hours 322 00:17:01.279 --> 00:17:05.319 of driving driving tests in person? Whatnot? So the reason 323 00:17:05.359 --> 00:17:08.880 there's actually no driving test here? The insurance left guy 324 00:17:08.920 --> 00:17:12.839 brought up as a great point, absolutely ridiculous. What if 325 00:17:12.839 --> 00:17:15.759 the guy had five do UIs in Honduras know that? 326 00:17:18.240 --> 00:17:18.759 What if he. 327 00:17:19.000 --> 00:17:21.680 Never took a driver's class in his life? I mean, 328 00:17:21.720 --> 00:17:24.359 I've you know, I'm sure you have. I've driven in Mexico, 329 00:17:24.359 --> 00:17:28.759 I've driven in Thailand and China and Indonesia, Malaysia going 330 00:17:28.839 --> 00:17:30.400 down the road on you know what they say, it's 331 00:17:30.440 --> 00:17:33.160 several countries and we all know that India the laws 332 00:17:33.160 --> 00:17:35.680 are a little different there. Or red light means a 333 00:17:35.839 --> 00:17:39.680 suggestion at best, so to say it's getting more dangerous 334 00:17:39.799 --> 00:17:44.039 is probably an understatement. I what do we do about this? 335 00:17:44.079 --> 00:17:45.599 I mean, I'm more than outrage. 336 00:17:45.920 --> 00:17:49.000 Hey, what do we do? You're asking just the right question, right, 337 00:17:49.079 --> 00:17:52.759 and there's only one answer to it, and that's a 338 00:17:52.839 --> 00:17:55.160 really hard one, and it's to vote these people out. 339 00:17:55.200 --> 00:17:57.920 Because the reason they're doing it right justin is they 340 00:17:57.960 --> 00:18:03.079 feel politically on touch as if there's no way they 341 00:18:03.079 --> 00:18:05.960 can lose office, so they can do anything they want, 342 00:18:06.440 --> 00:18:09.000 no matter how harmful it is to the people who 343 00:18:09.079 --> 00:18:09.759 vote for them. 344 00:18:10.440 --> 00:18:11.599 So that's their bad. 345 00:18:11.480 --> 00:18:14.400 That they're politically untouchable. But think about what it says 346 00:18:14.440 --> 00:18:16.920 about them that they're willing to do this. You're on 347 00:18:16.920 --> 00:18:17.880 the Dan Capla Show. 348 00:18:19.559 --> 00:18:22.000 You're listening to the Dan Kaplish Show podcast. 349 00:18:22.680 --> 00:18:25.279 I don't think there's that been an American born, including 350 00:18:25.400 --> 00:18:28.279 Congressman Jeff Herdy, joins us. Now, everybody jamming the lines, 351 00:18:28.359 --> 00:18:30.839 please say you will get on air and you'll get 352 00:18:30.839 --> 00:18:34.920 an air pronto. Who has not had this innate desire 353 00:18:35.079 --> 00:18:37.240 where we're born with to just get out on the 354 00:18:37.319 --> 00:18:40.559 highway and drive. Congressman, if you're in DC now, you 355 00:18:40.640 --> 00:18:42.920 probably have a stronger urge than others. 356 00:18:43.920 --> 00:18:47.319 Dan, Fortunately, I'm back here in Tolado. Home free Home. 357 00:18:47.720 --> 00:18:51.039 Yeah, absolutely, Hey, what's popping? What's hot right now there? 358 00:18:52.119 --> 00:18:54.119 Well, the big news of the day is we have 359 00:18:54.200 --> 00:18:58.039 the continuing Resolution that will you know, keep our government open, 360 00:18:58.359 --> 00:19:01.680 cut overall spending modestly. And it sounds like the Senate 361 00:19:01.759 --> 00:19:05.599 has agreed to that continuing resolution. So that's a good thing. 362 00:19:06.240 --> 00:19:08.720 It's a small step in the right direction, and I'm 363 00:19:08.759 --> 00:19:10.839 excited to see what comes next. 364 00:19:11.480 --> 00:19:14.119 Yeah, but a good thing except for all the ruined 365 00:19:14.119 --> 00:19:17.799 carpets in Washington because lefty heads are exploding all over 366 00:19:17.839 --> 00:19:21.240 the place because some of these Senate Dems agreed to 367 00:19:21.319 --> 00:19:23.839 keep the government open. So do we have like an 368 00:19:23.839 --> 00:19:26.079 all out civil war on the left right now? 369 00:19:26.839 --> 00:19:28.880 Yeah, there's quite a bit of disarray on the other side, 370 00:19:28.880 --> 00:19:31.279 for sure, Dan. And what I tell people is, look, 371 00:19:31.359 --> 00:19:35.039 this continuing resolution cuts overall spending by seven billion dollars. Again, 372 00:19:35.079 --> 00:19:37.960 that's a step in the right direction. It increases support 373 00:19:38.000 --> 00:19:41.240 for veterans healthcare and housing. There's a pay increase for 374 00:19:41.359 --> 00:19:45.000 junior enlisted personnel in the military, increases border security and 375 00:19:45.039 --> 00:19:47.680 funding to ICE. There's also funding in there for women 376 00:19:47.720 --> 00:19:51.160 inf and in children and supplemental nutrition, and funding increase 377 00:19:51.200 --> 00:19:54.160 for air traffic control as well. I'm not sure why 378 00:19:54.200 --> 00:19:56.599 the Democrats are opposed to this. I think it's the 379 00:19:56.680 --> 00:19:59.359 right thing. Look, a continuing resolution is not the ideal 380 00:19:59.400 --> 00:20:02.480 way to govern. We need long term funding solutions, but 381 00:20:02.759 --> 00:20:07.480 keeping the government running while working toward responsible spending reforms 382 00:20:07.519 --> 00:20:10.160 is essential, and that's what's happening. Not sure why there's 383 00:20:10.160 --> 00:20:11.799 so much controversy on the Democratic side. 384 00:20:11.839 --> 00:20:14.000 Well, on the Democratic side, it's just a party with 385 00:20:14.079 --> 00:20:16.799 his finger in the socket right like twenty four to seven. 386 00:20:16.960 --> 00:20:20.160 It's like they've stuck their finger into an electrical outlet. 387 00:20:20.200 --> 00:20:24.680 They're just spassy, right because they they're living a lie 388 00:20:24.720 --> 00:20:27.440 that people don't want what they're selling and they don't 389 00:20:27.440 --> 00:20:28.039 know what to do. 390 00:20:29.400 --> 00:20:32.359 One of the things I've noticed in Congress is there's 391 00:20:32.400 --> 00:20:35.839 a generational issue within the within the Democratic Party where 392 00:20:36.240 --> 00:20:40.000 the older leadership in the party there's a little bit 393 00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:42.559 of an internal civil war with the younger folks in 394 00:20:42.599 --> 00:20:45.160 the Republican Party, for example, just committe chairmanships. We have 395 00:20:45.200 --> 00:20:46.759 a term limit on the number of terms that you 396 00:20:46.759 --> 00:20:49.200 can serve as committee chairing of the Republican Party. Democrats 397 00:20:49.200 --> 00:20:50.839 that they don't have that. It's just who's never been 398 00:20:50.880 --> 00:20:53.519 to the longest gets in those plumb spots, and there's 399 00:20:53.559 --> 00:20:55.519 a lot of dissension within the Democratic side that we're 400 00:20:55.559 --> 00:20:56.720 not seeing on the Republican side. 401 00:20:56.720 --> 00:21:00.440
