We don't know what we don't know - yet - on the true motives, as irrational as they may be, for Minnesota assassin Vance Boelter on his murderous spree that took the lives of state representative Melissa Hortman (D) and her husband. Details are emerging, and what we do know is that his diabolical plot included impersonating a police officer and wearing a skin-tight latex mask to disguise his appearance, like something straight out of a horror movie.

Lindsay Datko, founder of JeffCo Kids First, joins Ryan with an update on the Columbine grooming scandal investigation by the Jefferson County sheriff's office winding down. Also, more examples of a complete lack of institutional control within the school district when it comes to protecting the children they are assigned to serve.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Before he entered the home.

Speaker 2 (00:01):
Two Brooklyn Park Police officers arrived at the scene. They
too had been dispatched to check on Senator and Representative
Portman after learning of the shooting of Senator Hoffman. When
they arrived at the scene, they saw Belter's black SUV
parked in the driveway with the emergency lights flashing, and

(00:22):
they saw Belter standing in front of the house, several
feet from the door. When Belter saw the officers get
out of the car, he drew his weapon and began firing.
He rushed into the house through the front door, firing
into it. He repeatedly fired into the house, and when

(00:43):
he entered, he murdered Representative Portman and her husband Mark.
The Brooklyn Park Police officers fired at bel Belter as
he rushed into the home, but he escaped into the
home and out the back.

Speaker 1 (01:00):
That in one minute summarizes what was a horrific and
terrifying attack by an absolute maniac, and the political motivations
are not entirely clear. He seems to be all over
the place. This vance Belter and the things that we know,
and we'll go over what we know and what we

(01:21):
don't know, because in events like this. You know, Dan
Bongino used to have the Dan Bongino rule, right. You
don't want to jump to conclusions. You don't want to
get your jump to conclusions matt out like from Office
Space the movie and reach wrong conclusions. This is where, unfortunately,
in this age of social media, Twitter, the like, even

(01:42):
mainstream media news, that a lot of people rush to
judgment based on incomplete facts, data, et cetera. What we
do know though, and this is out of the gate
and out of the shoot, was this vance Belter was
a political appointee of two Demo Credit governors, including Tim
Walls himself. I don't know that Governor Walls would knowingly

(02:07):
appoint someone who was ultramaga by their definition on the left.
He also has some troubling and peculiar associations with organizations
that might have stood to benefit from the funding of
illegal aliens and or foreign aid Middle East and Africa.

(02:28):
This vance Belter character a lot of bizarre and on
certain details. Did he live at home with his wife
and several children, or did he live with this kind
of rotund Papa John's he's a delivery driver as a
roommate or how long ago was that or why was
that when would I don't understand that at all. And

(02:53):
then further to that point, he identifies himself on LinkedIn
as the CEO of the Red Lafe group based in
the Democratic Republic of Congo, the representative who was assassinated
by his hand, and the timeline is just terrifying. Here
the police arrived on the scene before Belter entered the

(03:16):
home of Representative Melissa Hortman, after he had shot her colleague,
Senator John Hoffman and his wife. His wife absorbed. I
believe it was eight bullets covering her daughter, saving her
daughter's life. She survived somehow, so did Senator Hoffman, thank

(03:36):
God for that. But what these two Democrats shared, the
Senator John Hoffman the Representative Melissa Hortman, was they both
departed from their party, the Democratic Party, in the funding
for illegal aliens. And in fact, going back just a
week now, this is the now deceased Representative Melissa Hortman

(04:00):
emotionally discussing her vote on this and realizing it would
not be popular with her side of the Aisle.

Speaker 3 (04:06):
I know that people will be hurt by that vote,
and I'm we worked very hard to try to get
a budget deal.

Speaker 4 (04:17):
That wouldn't include that provision.

Speaker 5 (04:19):
DFL Speaker Amrita Melissa Hortman emotional following the House as
adjournment from a special session Monday. Hotman was the lone
DTHEL lawmaker to cast a vote to cut Minnesota care
access for undocumented immigrats.

Speaker 1 (04:31):
And this may have included persons that were affiliated with
this organization Red Lion Group from the Democratic Republic Republic
of Congo, that Belter had at least described that he
had some kind of affiliation with and again a political
appointee of Tim Walls and the Democratic governor who preceded

(04:52):
Walls in Minnesota. That being said, he had a bunch
of No King's flyers in his vehicle, which he had
dressed up to look like a police squad car with
its lights on. He had some kind of Hannibal Lecter
mask when he approached the door, and as you heard
the US Attorney Joe Thompson described, the police were onseen

(05:17):
had a shootout with him before he entered the residence,
meaning Hartman and her husband were still alive. And I'm
not here to break down the tactical aspect of this,
but there were two majority failures here and the police
are doing their level best. I wish I could talk
to Sheriff Steve Reams about this, or if you are
a law enforcement police, text in at five seven seven,

(05:39):
three nine to provide your perspective. Again, we don't know
what we don't know, but this is what we do know.
This is what has been released in the public sphere
at this press conference. They had engaged the suspect outside
the home, he got inside the home. How in God's
name were they not able to drop him right then
and there? I know it's tough again, it's differ, but

(06:00):
then further to that failure, he goes into the home,
assassinates the representative and her husband, and then escapes out
the back. I understand there are only two cops present,
perhaps at that very instant, and everything's going one hundred
miles an hour, But do you do you work on
securing the premises? How do you attack this situation and

(06:23):
neutralize the target? Because in that moment he is a threat.
Obviously he's a threat, and in that moment law enforcement
would be perfectly justified in shooting to kill, which means
shooting to neutralize the suspect. They were not able to
do that. They were not able to do that, and
because they were unable to do that, Representative Holtman Hortman

(06:43):
and her husband died. And then bait this guy escapes
out the back and there's a man hunt. He's on
the run, he's on the lamb, and they finally were
able to hunt him down, and Thompson describes what they
found from this perpetrator Belter.

Speaker 2 (07:05):
Officers recovered Belter's nine milimetera Bretta, along with the body
armour and the mask behind the home along his path
of flight when he fled on foot. They later searched
Belter's car, but if on five more firearms, including astault
stile rifles, and a large quantity of ammunition. Belter also

(07:28):
had in his car notebooks containing a list of more
than forty five Minnesota state and federal elected officials, including
Representative Department.

Speaker 1 (07:38):
This is where it gets a little dicey, and who
was on this list, this manifesto, and why and why
aren't they releasing the manifesto. I know there are a
lot of questions about that out there right now, but
these are the specifics, again coming from Joe Thompson, acting
US Attorney, on Vance Bolter and how he was able
to impersonate a police officer.

Speaker 2 (07:55):
He also prepared in other ways. He concealed himself as
a police officer, outfitting his black SUV with police lights
and a police license plate, wearing a black tactical vest
and body armor, carrying a police flashlight and a handgun,
and of course he wore that hyper realistic silicone mask

(08:20):
so creepy p seen on the surveillance videos. The video
of his arrival and shooting of Senator Hoffman is truly chilling. Again,
it's no exaggeration to say this is the stuff of nightmares.

Speaker 1 (08:34):
It is the stuff of nightmares. And we may never
know he is alive. They apprehended this madman alive, so
there will be a chance to question him charge him.
There was some confusion about why was he only charged
with second degree murder. Obviously this was premeditated, you would
be correct. But in order to get the fastest warrant
possible in the state of Minnesota, that's only accessible to

(08:55):
law enforcement through the second degree murder charge. A first
degree murder charger requires a grand jury to be convened,
and there's a lot of time involved in that, so
they just needed to get that warrant out and get him.
So they did that, and he will be charged not
only with first degree murder, but there are federal charges
now pending, and despite Minnesota not being a death penalty state,
the death penalty can be sought against him by federal

(09:16):
prosecutors and likely will be, and of course, in my opinion,
should be. There's the conflicting political motivation and again, this
is a crazy person, there's no denying that. There's no
two ways around it. Who may to have mixed motives here,
But Senator klobashar Amy Klobychar Democrat Minnesota, cites the bipartisan
condemnation of this act and that abortion was a through

(09:40):
line according to her, and his motivation for the attack.
What are you.

Speaker 6 (09:45):
Learning about the motive for his attack?

Speaker 3 (09:48):
Clearly this is politically motivated. Our delegation in Minnesota, from
the most conservative Republican to the most liberal Democrat, we
all joined together as sener Emma and I and other
and said we condemn this political violence. It was politically motivated,
and there clearly was some through line with abortion because

(10:09):
of the groups that were on the list and other
things that I've heard were in this manifesto.

Speaker 1 (10:15):
You can't take responsibility for this person doing what he
did other than himself. He did this, an individual did this.
But the incendiary rhetoric ramping up is coming from one side.
We see it with the note King's rally and the
fatal shooting in Utah. We see it throughout the country
and the justification for violence when you look at Luigi

(10:37):
Mangioni assassinating open murder on the street of the United
Healthcare CEO, and you had celebrities celebrating him. Jimmy Kimmel,
Bill Burr, Taylor Lorenz has a mad crush on him,
Jimmy Kimmel making jokes about his staff saying how handsome
louisyman Luigimangioni is. That's not so condemn this type of violence.

(11:01):
It is not an acceptable means to an end in
the United States of America. Shouldn't be. But the less
tolerance or looking the other way on this is part
and parcel of a latitude that's provided and cover that
is given to somebody that would perpetrate such an act.
Here's Governor Tim Walls Trey Goudi commenting on this a

(11:22):
couple of weeks ago, and his rhetoric. Some folks never
figure out why they lost.

Speaker 7 (11:27):
Donald Trump's modern dag Escapo is scooping folks up off
the streets. They're in unmarked vans, wearing masks, being shipped
off to foreign torture dungeons. No chance to mount of defense,
not even a chance to kiss the love, wouldn't good bye,
just grabbed up by massed agents, shoved into those vans
and disappeared to be clear, there's no way for us

(11:47):
to know whether they were actually criminals or not.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
There is they are criminals. If they're here illegally, that's
a crime. Trey Goudy will get into those details in
just a little bit. I could not agree with him more.
I don't agree with him on everything, but on this
one he's spot on, and we'll get to those details
in just a little bit. But joining us now. Another
update from the Jeffco Public Schools. She is the founder
of Jeffco Kids First, and she just posted this on

(12:11):
that Facebook page. You can apply to join that private group,
Jeffco Kids First. I am a member of it as well.
I would encourage you to do the same. This is
Scott Christi, Columbine High School principal, some time ago, bidding
a fond farewell to Leanne Kearney, who later absconded to
California with a form former student groomed at the age

(12:35):
of fifteen as a sophomore social studies student, now living
with Kearney in California. Well, miss Carney, you know this
is your last day year for a while, and one list.
You know we're gonna miss you a lot.

Speaker 3 (12:51):
I love you and we're so taking for your fame,
for your service they versus our country and our school.

Speaker 1 (12:58):
And or miss and so we have found some good
byeas just pumping for us.

Speaker 5 (13:07):
And he's so stigre.

Speaker 1 (13:09):
Maybe one who you're done, Maybe one to your seat bears,
maybe put on there. But yet we love you now, Lindsey.
What we know is at this time, at this moment,
scot Christy Columbine High School principle knew about the student
in question that was provided with a homeless tag through

(13:32):
falsified paperwork that he either was aware of or should
have been aware of, and that all of this was
going on behind the scenes. And yet this very fond
public farewell caught on video shared very emotional with Leanne
Karney departing Columbine schools and why did she depart once again, Lindsey,
can you reflect on that and refresh our memory.

Speaker 4 (13:55):
Yes, she was being deployed through military deployment, and yes,
all of that was unfolding. The homeless declaration came a
little a few weeks after this. The two hundred plus
investigation shows how interwoven all of these employees were the
red flags that they were alerted to that had been

(14:18):
going on for months. We're talking twenty four thousand texts
being sent from this predatory teacher to the victim, two
thousand hours of minutes of phone calls between her and
the victim that the parents diligently uncovered and that would
eventually be presented to the principle. And our open records
show that they still intended to invite this teaser back.

(14:42):
And it's just incredibly disturbing to go through this investigation
and we hear that it's wrapping up within two weeks.
Our work led to this criminal investigation being reopened and
without accountability. It's just unacceptable. This is one of the
most disturbing stories we've seen.

Speaker 1 (15:01):
Lindsay Datko jeffco Kids first joining us. You mentioned the
investigation to be wrapping up. This is being conducted by
jeff Co Law Enforcement.

Speaker 4 (15:10):
Correct, the jeff COO sheriffs sautice.

Speaker 1 (15:13):
What would you anticipate to be maybe an appropriate outcome,
but then a realistic outcome of that investigation.

Speaker 4 (15:22):
Yeah, we'll really leave that to them. I think we
talked to sun legal experts to see falsifying of federal
paperwork potentially definitely potential for failure to report as mandated reporters.
We have eleven adults, trusted adults, as I've talked to
you about Ryan involved in this case. Teachers in the investigation,

(15:46):
they heard about potential relationship. They saw this student in
the teacher's classroom every day with a livestock and a
corner eating lunch. At one point she an employee was
watching the teacher's dog when she was gone for the weekend,
and it was the victim who went to pick up
the dog from that teacher. The red flags, again are

(16:08):
endless and disturbing, and so we've really got to count
on the jeff Co Sheriff to find and implement accountability.

Speaker 1 (16:17):
You talk about accountability, Lindsay, I could not agree more.
But one of the things that's most disturbing is not
just this isolated incident because it was not isolated. This
is part of a fabric, a mosaic, a pattern of
behavior of want and irresponsibility in the Jeffco Public schools.
And you could give us an update and we could
take the rest of the show with what's on the docket.

(16:38):
But what's the very latest that listeners need to know about.

Speaker 4 (16:42):
Yeah, let me just give you a couple updates. We've
told you we had twenty six incidents of sexual abuse
misconduct grooming that we have documented through police reports and
open records. We're now up to over thirty plus and
we have heard that we have barely scratched the surface.
So just as an example, there was a teacher at
a middle school who sent text messages at ten thirty

(17:06):
pm to his eleven year old students, disturbing messages with
sexual connotations, appearing to pry her about her gender identity.
The next day, she and her friends googled his number
and his name easily comes up. I've done that as well.
The teacher walks the student to the principal after overhearing
this conversation, and it appeared to stop there. The parents

(17:29):
did go to law enforcement. But when I took this
jeff co Chief of Legal. Over a year later, they
informed me they had no idea about this. And here's
where it gets really interesting. Last week we found out
that this teacher a few months ago had been arrested
for felony menacing with a weapon where the victim feared

(17:50):
for her life. And it does show on Colorado Department
of Education that they revoked his license, which is good,
but that revocation report shows absolutely nothing about those text messages.
And after those text messages surfaced, he ended up at
a high risk school which was a high risk students

(18:10):
with a high risk teacher, or i should say at
risk students with a high risk teacher. So you see
the disjointed process. I've told you also about an Adam's
twelve teacher who was in jeff co multiple reports of
grooming and he ended up in Adams twelve, and it
shows that jeff COO's schools did not report the grooming.

(18:33):
Police were involved. Well, Adams twelve took swift action, put
him on leave immediately after we reported to them, removed
him from students, and we just found out terminated his employment.
So a very different response. And lastly, one that's been
big in the news shereer for drugs, child prostitution. He

(18:54):
worked at multiple high schools in jeff Po. One bit
of interesting information there is that Cherry Creek he worked
at and informed us that he they declined to give
him full time position, and so that was a very
interesting update. And so again you see this disjointed process

(19:16):
that we really need Jeffco Schools to look at. And
we did get invited by the board president to meet
with her. We went through a documentation. We only made
it through half. We've asked each board member to meet
with us to go through it. They have not responded.
The school district itself has not responded. And again the
information that we have through our professionals, paralegal, private investigator

(19:39):
to be very helpful to securing these policies and practices
to keep our children safe, and they continue to avoid
our work which we have put in through incredible amount
of labor and volunteer art.

Speaker 1 (19:52):
It is chilling to think about where we might be
when it comes to all these myriad controversies and the
Jeffco Public Schools without jeff Co Kids first bring these
stories to light and tying together all these loose ends
and presenting them to the public and getting eyeballs on
it and getting daylight on it and getting the likes
of CBS four to cover it. Lindsay, you do remarkable work.

(20:16):
I don't know how you find the time, but thank
you for spending that time, not only in investigating these
cases and putting it all together, but in joining us
here today. I always appreciate it.

Speaker 4 (20:26):

Speaker 6 (22:08):
And when we talk about the sort of tension in
the country, and sometimes you know, you and I have
both been at Trump rallies, those can be you know,
very tense kind of I would say, like kind of
a dark malevolent energy sometimes in them, not always, but
it doesn't seem like that's the energy on the crew
on the mall today, which I think is a good sign, right.

Speaker 2 (22:28):
Correct, that you're you're you're really correct about that, Chris,
And it's something we you know, we were watching for.

Speaker 1 (22:35):
You're watching for. What He's correct at the two hundred
and fiftieth celebration of our US Army that the parade
was magnificent, That it was flawless start to finish. It
was thoroughly inspiring and enjoyable, I think, and great for
our troops and the morale of our military and the

(22:56):
West Pointers who are featured, and the rank and file,
the soldiers who were sworn in by the President himself.
What an awesome experience that must have been. It just
so coincided with President Trump's seventy ninth birthday June fourteenth.
He is one year and one day older than my
own father. But this parade had been in the works,

(23:18):
in the planning, we're told, dating back to I think
it was twenty sixteen. So this wasn't just thrown together
as some homage to the Orange Man. This is so
stupid and if Chris Hayes and Ali Velshi who you
heard their MSNBC had ever been to a Trump rally? Kelly,
have you ever been to a Trump rally? Have you
been the one? I have not.

Speaker 8 (23:36):
I unfortunately had the wonderful opportunity to produce many I'm
with her rally.

Speaker 1 (23:44):
Okay, that was torture, but I it was. I have
been to a Trump rally. In fact, I went to
one of the earlier ones at the Delta Plex just
outside of Grand Rapids, Michigan. This is back when I
was a Rubio supporter. This is twenty sixteen in the
primary season. Had I think I just voted for Rubio,
but then Trump wallap little Marco, Little Marco in Michigan.

(24:08):
Do you remember the only state that Little Marco won.
Here's a trivia question for you, Kelly.

Speaker 4 (24:12):
Florida.

Speaker 1 (24:13):
No, No, he didn't win, Flid Trump.

Speaker 8 (24:15):
He did not.

Speaker 1 (24:15):
Trump crushed him in Florida.

Speaker 8 (24:17):
Yeah, Okay, I'm gonna say.

Speaker 1 (24:20):
We were just talking about it. I'm gonna give you
a very big wearing hintchg. No, I just said I
voted for Rubio on Michigan and Trump won, big Ley,
What state was I talking about in the opening segment
where there was an assassination this weekend Minnesota, Minnesota.

Speaker 8 (24:38):
I really need to listen to you more often when
right next to you.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
Damn it. It's not a good sign when the person
right next to me is not listening to the program.
But that is the correct answer. Here's the other thing,
the point that I'm making. Never have I ever and
I was at the inauguration, which you know, yes, Kelly,
what was it like when I told you about it?
Standing in line? Oh, remember David who we interviewed on
this program, the young man. Unbelievable was their dark, malevolent energy.

(25:09):
Of course at the inauguration.

Speaker 8 (25:10):
Of course they can talk about it all they want,
but they're just flapping their lips.

Speaker 1 (25:16):
Well it's I think they're lying because if they've been
the one. Here's what Democratic members are leftists in the media.
They won't admit their Democrats. But that have attended Trump
rallies have been shocked at how friendly people are. It
is a party, it's a celebration. It's like a tailgate.
It's that atmosphere, it's that energy. It's positive. And I

(25:38):
wouldn't say this if it weren't true. I've been there,
and that's what struck me. I attended my first Trump
rally back in twenty sixteen at Delta Plex out of
a kind of a curiosity, like, what is this big
thing this buzz about Donald Trump? I knew who he
was all these years. I knew he had kind of
hinted at, tiptoed around, threatened to run for president, but

(26:01):
never did, never followed through on it. So I didn't
really I didn't really trust him as anything other than
an exercise and self promotion for The Apprentice. I thought
he had just signed right a long term extension for
that show. He had just signed I think in twenty fifteen,
So I'm thinking, you know, he's going to be in
He's going to get some pop, he's gonna get some
ratings for the I get it. I get it. I

(26:21):
didn't even begrutch him that, but I'm like, is he
really in it to win it? Like Eiserman? Like the
kid rock song says. And I wasn't sure of that.
I wasn't convinced of that. After that rally, I was
convinced of it. My eyes were opened. It's like I
was Dorothy and Wizard of Oz and came out of
the black and white of Kansas to the wonderful color

(26:42):
world of OZ. I saw all types of different people
at this rally. I saw people who had never voted
before ever in their lives. And I'm talking people that
were middle aged, that just were disaffected with politics, that
felt overlooked and abandoned by the Republican Party, you know,
the the working men and women who were left behind.

(27:03):
And Sean Hannity talked about that a lot during that
initial campaign, and they were finally given a voice. People
like my buddy Hutch in Florida loved Trump, tried to
understand it, and then I understood it. But never did
I ever experience or observe or think that there was
a dark, malevolent energy at a Trump rally. Are you insane?

(27:23):
You're purposefully lying to your audience. It's an awesome experience.
These people are thrilled to see the president. It's everything
about it is positivity, everything about it. People are glad handing.
There were like liberal members of the media that would
show up, and people standing in line would kind of

(27:44):
joke around with, oh, you're a liberal, oh ha haha.
There was none of this crap like we saw at
these No kings. No ice rally is what it should be.
It's an anti ice rally. And I got this email
from Tricia Calvaret's and a lot of you get really
upset when I have her on the program. But that's because, folks,
she's one of the few Democrats that'll come on this program,

(28:07):
and I give her immense credit for that. I don't
agree with her on most of her stances, but I
like her. I think she's a good person. However, she
may as well have taken her candidacy and doused it
in kerosene and lit it on fire with this email
that I got because she went to she goes. I

(28:29):
stood with Coloradden's at no kings rallies that happened across
the US faith that blah blah blah blah, we don't
have any kings. And in fact, that's what was on
display at the two hundred and fiftieth anniversary celebration for
our US Army. That's why we don't have kings. Donald
Trump is not a king, doesn't want to be a king.
He joked about, I'm not a king. I can't do

(28:50):
things kings do. He said that at a press conference,
joking around about it. And the fun we don't know
the funniest part. There's so many funny things. Things that
were not funny, by the way, a fatal shooting in Utah.
These clowns trying to push around local law enforcement. Light
the American flag on fire wave the Mexican flag. Keep

(29:13):
doing that, you morons. That is not a very good
sales pitch for your position. But regardless, they were trying
to mimic these rallies in Canada, and like so many
derivative things in Canada that are ripoffs of American things
like Okeechabee baseball cards are ripoffs of tops. You know,
they kind of maneuver a name with the English Canadian

(29:36):
language rather than the American English version, and it's like, oh, yeah,
that's that Canadian. You're just ripping us off. Second City
in Toronto. Second City was in Chicago. First I got
a whole list, and I'm a quasi Canadian, I'm Canadian light,
I'm from Michigan, I'm a border state native. I went
to Canada a lot, but they wanted to have this

(29:56):
no King's rally in Canada. But guess what, Canada has
a king. His name is Charles. And before that they
had a queen and her name was Elizabeth, and the
Canadians are simply Americans that didn't revolt, that stayed under
the thumb of the crown and still has Queen Elizabeth.
And I haven't seen updated currency, but probably King Charles

(30:19):
on their dollar bills on their currency. So instead of
calling it that No King's Rally in Toronto or wherever
it had to be, the No Tyrants Rally, they changed
the name because they do have kings in Canada. That's
the irony of this. You just contrast the positivity, the optimism,

(30:40):
the pro America vibe, the morale of that two hundred
and fiftieth anniversary Army parade that Kelly and I watched
and we were texting back and forth. That was tremendous,
made you feel good about this country. And then you
watch these clowns on the streets of blue cities and
blue states that are falling apart, that have human feces

(31:01):
all over them, in drug paraphernalia, and people committing crimes
out in the open and nothing being done about it,
and how much they hate this country. And that's all
you need to see. That's the contrast. And that was
a big win for Donald Trump on Saturday. You might
say a huge win. It was a tremendous win for America.

(31:24):
A break. We're back wrapping up our number one with
your text five seven seven three nine. Did you watch
the Army Parade on Saturday? What did you think of it?
What stood out to you about it? Talk about that
and much more when we come back on Ryan Schuling
Live Romeo Michigan Zone a kid of rock wasting time

(31:46):
right there from one of his earlier albums, and that's
where I get the lyric in it to win it
like Iserman, and that's not very popular around these parts.
I recognize that, but it's reflecting upon the Stanley Cup
victory of Night seven, the first for of the Red
Wings in forty two years, and that was a dramatic moment.
And it was the year after, of course, the Colorado

(32:08):
Avalanche won the Cup after a shall we say, feisty
Western Conference final with the Red Wings that year. That's
where it all started, the war between the Abs and
Red Wings that we continue through about two text five
seven seven three nine. Ryan, you just reminded me what
was the last important thing about King Charles reign, other

(32:28):
than the fact that his mum died. Seriously, Name any
little thing that anyone in the world heard about him. Well,
he married Princess Diana and she always upstaged him. If
he watched the series The Crown on Netflix, you'll see
him portrayed, I think, very well by actors. And again,
he was just living in the shadow of the very

(32:50):
luminescent Princess Diana. Ryan Republicans were busy celebrating the two
hundred and fiftieth birthday of the US Army, which ended
King's rule in the United States. Not so insignificant detail there, Texter,
Democrats are running around the country holding oh, holding ryots.

(33:14):
I'll leave it at that. But very funny, Texter, I
got it, wink. Appreciate the humor and the sentiment. And
the other thing is the undermining of pride in this country.
This is where Democrats have lost the plot. In my mind,
if you go back even to Bill Clinton, you know,
there was a certain level of patriotism associated with Democrat party.

(33:34):
They had a different way of doing things. I was
just talking about this my friend Christian Toto. They believe, though,
that government was a force for good. I think it's
a misplaced notion, obviously, I'm for small government. The less
government the better, you know, Ronald Reagan telling us about
that libertarian impulse. I'm here from the government and I
want to help. No, no, no, you're going to ruin everything.
Anything government run is less efficient, bloated. You see usaid

(33:58):
all this malfees. I don't want any part of it.
But Democrats at one time, I believe, earnestly believed, Hey,
if we just let the federal government run certain programs,
then those who are of need can have their needs
met by those who are more well off in this
balancing act of robbing from the rich to give to

(34:21):
the poor, the whole robin hood thing. But we know
that's not how things operate. And when you punish success,
you give a disincentive for all sorts of things that
lead to innovation, investment, hiring, creating jobs. And it goes
back to Margaret Thatcher, one of my all time favorite
world leaders, who set things like socialism is what happens

(34:43):
when you run out of other people's money. And nobody
ever taxed their way to prosperity. Fact. No, you must
create an environment for investment and ingenuity in the American
economy and it will hum and it will roar. And
that's what we're getting already here with the Trump administry
and inflation sinking to huh interesting four year lows that

(35:04):
didn't occur to Joe Biden. Wonder why that might be? Ryan.
If I ever see this Carnee lady out in public,
I'm pointing at her and yelling out loud for everyone
to hear. Lesbian child molester? Whoa that one? From zero
to sixty in a hurry until she's out of sight.
Why is no one else doing this? While she lives
in California? So you know, you go to the land

(35:25):
of fruits and nuts, all due respect, Kelly. And she
has this groomed student who is now an adult living
with her. But the grooming began when the student was
fifteen and a sophomore in Carney's social studies class, and
the grooming was aided and embedded by school officials. Make
no mistake about it. Lindsay Dadko has shared with us

(35:46):
those details. The investigation is winding down from the Jeffco
Sheriff's Department. But this was not just Carneie acting alone.
This was falsifying federal forms declaring the young student as
being homeless when she in fact had a home and
a mother who wanted her to live at home. That
mother was live in studio with Dan Kaplis not that

(36:06):
long ago, but this was the kind of a workaround,
some fine print where they go, oh, she's homeless, so
now she's going to stay in a halfway house with
this other counselor that works at the school, Columbine High School,
and we're going to hold her there until she turns eighteen,
and then lo and behold, she moves to California and
joins her groomer. This Carnie just absolutely disgusting. And you

(36:34):
have to wonder if this had happened and it was
a male teacher with a female student. I just don't
think it would have turned out the same way. I
really don't. Our Number two straight ahead, Jimmy Sangenberger will
pop in on Ryan Schuley Live.
