5-7-25 - 6am - Colorado's Report Card

Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
Typical Demo line behavior. Before the election, Nancy Plussy claimed
that there was an open primary and Kamala won it.
After the election, now Nancy Plussy is claiming that they lost,
but they probably wouldn't have had there been an open primary.
Make it make sense?

Speaker 2 (00:22):
Don't you find it fascinating that somebody leaves a talk
back on this program and says, make it make sense?
What are they thinking?

Speaker 3 (00:32):
They do?

Speaker 2 (00:32):
They do they really think that I'm going to make
sense of something.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
I want to talk about Colorado. This may take us
a while.

Speaker 2 (00:47):
Yesterday I'm putting around on X, reading through you know,
different lists, uh studying you know what hicc or Bennett
or polists are saying, and I stumble across a brief
reference to something called the Colorado report Card, Colorado's report card,

(01:11):
and it leads me to a story that I completely
missed from last week in the Denver Gazette. So I
cut and pasted it because for some reason, the URL
for that particular story comes and goes. Now this morning
I noticed the league is working again. So I don't

(01:34):
know whether I mean, I can't imagine I would be
doing anything wrong, but I pull it up and I
want to walk through this because when I talk about
Colorado being a craphole state, which I have to admit
truly does get to me. It bugs me, It irritates me,

(01:54):
it depresses me, it angers me. Because you know, when
you have grandparents now long long since deceased, obviously, but
when you have grandparents who during the dust Bowl left
as Oakie's to make their way to California, and thank

(02:15):
god they didn't. They ended up in Sewatch, Colorado and
built a great life there and then eventually went back
to be a Klumba Panhandle, which I never really fully understood,
but they just I mean, that was originally their home,
and my grandfather being a Cherokee Indian, he just really
wanted to go back to Oklahoma, so they did. But nonetheless,

(02:39):
I can claim Native blood, and I don't mean the
Cherokee Indian part, which obviously I can claim, but the
Native part in terms of Colorado, because this is where
my dad grew up and so and it was always
fascinating to me. I never quite comprehended it. But oftentimes
during the holidays, if parents wanted to take a vacation,

(03:03):
it was we could either go to the lakes in Oklahoma,
or we could come to the mountains in Colorado pretty
much equal distance, and they preferred, obviously, my dad, having
grown up in Swatch, preferred to come to Colorado. So
we always came to Colorado. Or if we were doing
something like during the holidays, like sometimes, which I find
kind of interesting. I need to ask my mom about this.

(03:26):
Sometimes during Christmas, because little town we grew up in
was obviously a little tiny town, they would make a
Christmas shopping weekend and the choice was drive to Oklahoma
City two hundred sixty five miles or thereabouts what I
don't remember the precise numbers, or drive to Denver two

(03:49):
hundred and seventy five miles. And of course Dad was
always like, let's go to Denver. Let's go to Denver.
So I have all these childhood memories of Denver, and
I have memories of downtown Denver that were always, you know,
to to a to a kid from the Oklahoma Panhandle,

(04:10):
Denver was you know, that was that was a big city.
I mean even compared to Oklahoma City, Diner, Denver was
the big town. And I can remember in particular, uh
like after Tamer and I got married her, her dad
would oftentimes come up to Colorado, uh to you know,
he might be going to the undisclosed location and then

(04:30):
he made he'd want to make a trip up to denverer.
Now why would he want to make a trip up
to Denver Because in those days Eddie Bauer. I know,
when I say Eddie Bauer today you think of cheap
clothing at Park Meadows Mall, which is not really you know,
an outdoor You don't think of Eddie Bower anymore like
you might think of ri E I, or you might

(04:53):
think of say Philson or Orvis. They're no longer Eddie
Bower is no longer an outdoor gear store. But her dad,
being a true outdoorsman, always wanted to go to There
was an Eddie Bower store in downtown Denver. It was
a multi story store. Now compare that's what they have
a Park Metals Mall today, which is about the size

(05:14):
of this studio, and it's nothing but you know, uh,
some some jeans and shorts and a couple of really flimsy,
crappy you know, cheap parks or whatever. But I'm talking
about true Orvis, Philson, Eddie Bauer. That that was the
top of the line, kind of outdoor gear, and I
love coming up here with him to go shopping. And

(05:34):
I to this day. One of my I finally got
rid of it, gave it to Goodwill. But one of
my favorite down coachs came from Eddie Bauer that we
bought back in you know, back in the late seventies
early eighties. That's no longer Colorado. That's not the Colorado
that I remember. And so it frustrates me when when

(05:55):
when I come in here and I talk about how
Colorado's doing going down the drain, and we truly are
a craphole state. I don't want you to think that
I get pleasure in that. I don't want you to
think that I enjoy talking about that. I pointed out
because part of my obligation. I truly see it as
an obligation, because I consider it a privilege to have

(06:18):
a microphone. Most people don't have microphones. Well, you might
have a microphone, but you're not talking to audiences like
I am.

Speaker 3 (06:26):
Don't kid yourself.

Speaker 4 (06:27):
Ain't nobody listening to this either?

Speaker 3 (06:29):
Well, Alexa is.

Speaker 2 (06:31):
So we got one and and the rest the rest
of the jury, the other eleven are just now slowly
getting out of bed. So that's why I'm just trying
to kind of build up to all they don't have jobs, well,
but they can't afford cable TV, so they listen to
free radio.

Speaker 3 (06:51):
That's why.

Speaker 2 (06:53):
And you ought to know, mister formerly employed on Saturday,
no longer.

Speaker 4 (07:00):
Through the end of the month. I still have a job.
We'll see if my badge works on Saturday.

Speaker 2 (07:08):
That's right, because you make it to the other job,
you know. I can't wait to get the text, like
you know at six oh five am, Michael, I can't get.

Speaker 4 (07:21):
In not going to work today.

Speaker 3 (07:23):
I'm going to work today. Can I come and see you? No, no, no,
he doesn't work here either, Just like here.

Speaker 4 (07:29):
If it swipes three times and it's still red, now
I'm just gonna go home.

Speaker 3 (07:33):
That's right, just tounle home, run home.

Speaker 2 (07:36):
So it doesn't give me any pleasure to talk about this,
but nonetheless I feel privileged and obligated to talk about
it because as long as I have this voice, as
long as I have the microphone, I'm going to continue.

Speaker 3 (07:50):
And I know this. Sometimes I'm just preaching to the.

Speaker 2 (07:52):
Choir, but I also know this, whether you believe it
or not, you have a sphere of influence. I've got
a sphere of influence, and I'm talking about outside the
radio station. And you may not think that your sphere
of influence is influential, or that what you say to

(08:13):
your sphere of influence makes a difference. I sincerely believe
that you may not know what difference it makes, and
it may not make a difference immediately. But when you
take anything that I say here and you repeat it

(08:34):
to someone else, that means that somebody is influenced by it,
and they just might change their vote, and they just
might decide that they too have had enough. I'll tell
you yesterday, so I took this story out of the

(08:57):
Denver Gazette, and because I wasn't sure because the link was,
as I said, sometimes broken, sometimes working, sometimes not. By
the way, can I just say this to the Denver
Gazette while I'm speaking, If there's anybody out there from
the Denver Gazette that listened to this program, would you
please email me or look up my account because I
spent just to be precise, I spent an inortant amount

(09:23):
of time yesterday trying to get you on the phone
to straighten out my account. Twenty one minutes and I
finally just gave up.

Speaker 4 (09:35):
Well, currently the link is working and it is posted
that Michael says, go here dot com.

Speaker 3 (09:39):
Okay, follow along? All right?

Speaker 2 (09:40):
Good? So where it was I before I got derailed
by that little squirrel. I bring you these stories, and
I talk about this because as we go down the whirling,
swirling down the toilet drain, we might just might just

(10:04):
say we've had enough, because I've got another story coming
from the Colorado from the Common Sense Institute about energy,
which we're going to talk about eventually today, which is
combined with this. At some point there's going to be
enough of this information that much liked with the Biden administration,

(10:26):
Jared Polus and the communists out of the Colorado Pollup Bureau,
Michael Bennett and John Hickenlooper and Diana de Gett and
all the other Democrats, Joe no Goose and all the
rest of them are finally going to meet their waterloo
and we'll turn the state around and it will be
just like it is for the country right now. It'll
be chaotic, and it'll be messy, and it'll be ugly,

(10:49):
but we will start turning this state around. And I
think this state is and I know everybody loves their
own state. Well, I've been privileged enough to travel to
all all fifty states, and I think all fifty states
have wonderful things about them and all fifty states have
bad things about them too. So regardless of where you're living,

(11:10):
and by the way, I would be speaking to those
of you that listen to me on the podcast or
live in Texas, what's happening in Colorado is a warning
to all of you in Texas.

Speaker 3 (11:22):
Now.

Speaker 2 (11:22):
You may be sitting, you know, high and mighty in
the Hill country, or you might be listening in Amarillo,
or you might be listening in somewhere outside the Dallas
Fort Worth metro area, and you may think, oh, no,
it's not going to happen here, Michael, Oh trust me.
All you have to do is look at what's going
on in your legislature right now. Some Republicans and the

(11:44):
Texas legislature are as bad as the Democrats in Colorado.
And if you start looking at the demographics, and you
start if you take your county map and you color
it red and blue, you'll start to see these almost
like a Jackson why not not Jackson Pollock necessarily, but

(12:06):
you'll see like a child's painting with splashes of blue.
Around Harris County, Texas, around Bajart, Texas, Bayhart County, around
San Antonio, around Austin, around the Dallas Fort Worth metroplex.
You will begin to see these splashes of blue and

(12:27):
they're bleeding over into the red areas of Texas. And
you're going to wake up one day and if you're
not careful, Texas will go red. And I would warn
the rest of the country that's listening that if Texas
goes red, we're done.

Speaker 3 (12:42):
We're done. Blue what blue?

Speaker 2 (12:44):
Oh mean, Yeah, Texas goes blue, We're done. Yef Texas
goes blue, we're done because with the number of electoral
College votes that they have, combined with California, New York
and Illinois, and we're done, and we'll become a socialist
welfare state that's that will be unmatched by anybody in Europe,

(13:05):
or for that matter, of the Canadians. So this report card, now,
they don't give the citations. I've asked one of my
one of my AI accounts to confirm, and most of
these they've confirmed. They've given me links to it and stuff.

(13:25):
But nonetheless, I just want to go through these stats.
So this is Colorado's report card as given to this
by the Denver Gazette last week. The economy. Let's just
start with the economy, the very basics. In fact, what
you'll notice is, oh, by the way, let me let
me finish one point about the sphere of influence. When

(13:46):
I posted this yesterday, I have no idea, you know,
when I put it up on X I haven't put
it up on Facebook yet. I should do that. Uh,
I never know what the reaction is going to be.
I was astonished, and it shows you once again that
my sphere of it because there were literally hundreds of

(14:07):
people that reposted, liked, or commented or something about this
that are not my followers, which means that they saw
it not from they saw it not from my account.
They saw it from an account that retweeted it or
liked it. So you see, it may not be one

(14:29):
degree of separation. It might be two, three, four, five,
or six degrees of separation. That's your sphere of influence.
And that's why I encourage you to use your sphere
of influence real quickly.

Speaker 4 (14:42):
Before we get into this, I just want to start
with a timeline of events of what's happening here. The
Colorado Gazette had this posted April twenty seventh, so a
week or so ago, and just friendly reminder our governor.
Governor Jared Polis tweeted posted on X on May second,

(15:06):
which is after the Colorado Gazette report comes out. Governor
Polis posted on Twitter the X god forbid a governor
talk about how his state is the best state in
the country to live, raise a family, and start and
grow a business.

Speaker 3 (15:22):
All right, go ahead, Okay, then the other thing.

Speaker 2 (15:25):
So that's a perfect perspective to keep them. There's one
other perspective I would ask you to think about as
we go through this list.

Speaker 3 (15:32):
The good things.

Speaker 2 (15:35):
That you would think would be a good thing, like
the economy, continue to get worse. The bad things, such
as crime, continues to increase. So they're in they're inverted.
Everything's going the wrong direction. Every little thing I'm going
to talk about here is going the wrong direction. So

(15:55):
let's get started. The economy something affects all of us.
I just there's all the way to do this, and
just to do it verbatim. The economy, long ranked among
the top five states for economic performance, Colorado has dropped
to the bottom ten. By twenty twenty four, we've gone

(16:16):
from one of the top five economic powerhouses in this
country to the bottom ten. Governor Polis Democrats. Income something
is important to all of us, no matter how you
get your income.

Speaker 3 (16:34):
Whether you're a drug.

Speaker 2 (16:35):
Dealer, are you're a radio talk show host, your income's
pretty important to you. Personal income growth fell from again,
think about the from the third in the country. We've
gone from being the third and income growth in the
country to thirty ninth between twenty eighteen twenty twenty four,

(16:57):
despite which I find freaking hilarious Becauseette says, despite some
of the world's highest minimum wage mandates, Gee, do you
think there's any correlation here between we continue to mandate
higher and higher minimum wages, and in fact, sometimes we
even vote for those minimum wages, you stupid people among us,

(17:18):
And then suddenly our personal income growth goes from third
in the entire country to thirty ninth, at least from
not in the bottom ten, right thirty nine. Housing Colorado,
You know, housing's pretty important. It's been raining like hell
for two days. You know it's nice to have shelter.

(17:39):
Colorado ranks among the five five least affordable states for
housing congratulations. Now the next one is a category called regulation.
I wonder if this has anything to do with some
of these economic numbers, some of these income numbers, some

(18:01):
of the inflation numbers, some of the energy numbers. Colorado
ranks as the six six most regulated in the United States.
Which think is that masters of the obvious point out
corresponds with slower business growth, business growth and innovation.

Speaker 3 (18:22):
What did the governor say, driven Michael.

Speaker 5 (18:31):
I got a lovely text message from mister Hickenlooper yesterday,
and all he could talk about was how they need
Democrats need to unite so we can defeat Trump's policies.
Nothing about any ideas they have. I texted him back
and said, Dems have ruined Colorado. I'm never voting them again.
Have a nice day.

Speaker 2 (18:52):
I've done no story about Apparently you did vote them
at some point and then something caused you to change
your mind. I'd be curious what that was and when
that occurred. So we're going through this Denver Gazette story,
which you can find at Michael says go here dot com.
And we've gone through the economy. We've gone from the
top five to the bottom ten. Income growth fell from

(19:16):
third in the country to thirty ninth in housing, we
rank among the five least affordable states for housing. We
get to regulation, where the sixth most regulated state in
the country, which obviously results in slower business, business growth
and innovation. Yet, just after this story broke in the

(19:39):
Denver Gazette, Polish tweets on what was it? May second,
I think it's May.

Speaker 3 (19:44):
Second that he that's correct.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
Second, May second, he tweets something about God forbid that
anybody talk about how bad Colorado is when it's such
a great place to, you know, raise a family and start.

Speaker 3 (19:53):
A business and grow your business.

Speaker 2 (19:55):
Really, because seems to me the facts on the ground,
Governor say that you be lying. Then we get to inflation.
Colorado experienced some of the highest inflation rates in the
country by twenty twenty five, outpacing national averages with consumer
prices drum roll please, fifteen point four percent higher today

(20:21):
than in twenty twenty one. And I sure as the
hell believe that. I absolutely believe that energy, which we'll
do deeper later in the program. Beginning with Senate Bill
one eighty one in twenty nineteen, Colorado has obstructed energy
production a major Colorado export at an expense to the

(20:46):
state's economy and high wage blue collar jobs.

Speaker 3 (20:50):
In all, multiple new.

Speaker 2 (20:51):
Regulations since twenty eighteen have Colorado producing less oil and
gas in twenty twenty five that in twenty nineteen. Even
though the country, the nation's production has increased, our production
has decreased. Now the Common Sense Institute has a in

(21:15):
depth study of that, and I will later in the
program show you exactly how many jobs that's cost or
actually they do, but I'll tell you about it and
the impact has had on our gross domestic product in Colorado.
Commercial real estate, remember yesterday we did the story about
the sixteenth Street Parentheses mall with an asterisk to it,

(21:37):
the sixteenth Street Street street and how they a third
of them are vacant and the foot traffic. I remember
there was a little guber from KDVR. Do I think
it was KDVR, maybe's channel nine, I don't know, but
little reporter rep was standing on the sixteenth Street mall
talking about, yeah, you know, having trouble filling stores down here.

(22:00):
And as they as the camera pans out to show
her on the mall, I see two people walking two
they're probably looking for someplace to rob or trying to
find some meth to buy or something I don't know.
Commercial real estate under House Built twelve eighty six, enacted
in twenty twenty one, commercial buildings over fifty thousand square

(22:21):
feet have to meet all these strict greenhouse gas reduction
targets seven percent by next year, twenty percent by twenty thirty,
all down from twenty twenty one levels. Owners face compliance
costs for retrofits and electrification, rendering Colorado, governor, are you listening,
Wake your ass up and listen, governor, rendering Colorado less

(22:43):
attractive to future businesses while oppressing their legacy counterparts. Seems
to me that Jared Polis was lying when he put
that tweet out, because the facts in this state prove otherwise.

Speaker 3 (23:00):
UH unemployment.

Speaker 2 (23:04):
The country's second highest unemployment rate in March four point
eight percent, compared with twenty seventeen, when back then Colorado
tied for this country's second lowest unemployment rate at two
point seven percent.

Speaker 3 (23:23):
Job growth.

Speaker 2 (23:24):
Colorado's year over year job growth rate of zero point
one seven percent seventeenth of a percent seventeen hundred seven
percent from March twenty four through March twenty five compares
to the national rate of one point two percent. Where's
that put us forty third, seventh from the bottom in

(23:50):
the country for job growth. Colorado's job growth rate back
in twenty seventeen was two point four percent compared to
the current zero point one percent volume. Mozedy and the
governor said something about God forbidness. Somebody talk make it
even about Colorado. It's the greatest place in the world
start a business, run a business.

Speaker 3 (24:09):
Yeah, that's pretty close. Now crime.

Speaker 2 (24:13):
See, now we're getting into the areas where you would
think that, oh, instead of going up, we ought to
be going down. But here's where we're really going down.
The toilet crime rates surged post twenty eighteen with Colorado's
average monthly crime rate. Now you know, I will just
say this before I give you the numbers. This presupposes

(24:35):
that the Denver Police Department, or the Colorado State Patrol
or any other police jurisdiction in this state.

Speaker 3 (24:41):
Is actually reporting the crime.

Speaker 2 (24:46):
I just happened to watch a short video yesterday, kind
of surprised to find it in which one of the
people in the video talked about a pickup truck being
stolen and when he called the police department to report
that he had seen the truck. He saw it at

(25:06):
a gas station. Didn't he see it at a parking lot,
you know, like a year or something. Multiple people knew
where it was. Yes, multiple people knew where it was.
He had seen it, and the cops said, not our problem.
Your insurance company will take care of it. Because nobody
was harmed, nobody was hurt. We're not going to do anything.

(25:28):
Cops doing their job. I wonder why these numbers are
the what they are. Crime rates surged post twenty eighteen,
with Colorado's average monthly crime rate exceeding four hundred and
seventy five per one hundred thousand residents in twenty twenty three,
compared to a nationwide rate of three hundred and seventy

(25:50):
four point four per one hundred thousand, One hundred more
per hundred thousand than the nationwide rate.

Speaker 3 (26:01):
Seems to me the more.

Speaker 2 (26:02):
We think about that, juxtaposed with Jared Poulos's dumbass tweet
about God forbids somebody talking about Colorado not being a
good place to raise a family to start a business,
seems to me that the statistics, the facts on the ground, Governor,
make you a flyer, an absolute pathetic liar. You can't

(26:23):
even lie well test scores. I don't know why, But
you know, of all the others, I don't know why
this one bugs me the most. Maybe because tet Camera's
a school counselor, but it bugs me because if remember
how often remember Hillary Clinton takes a village, which I
always found to be total bullcrap.

Speaker 5 (26:44):
Uh.

Speaker 2 (26:45):
You know we're always talking about hope. We gotta do
it for the children, and the children are our future.

Speaker 1 (26:51):
Well.

Speaker 2 (26:51):
As much as I despise all those trite little phrases,
it is true. The future of this republic depends upon
a well informed citizen. The future of the state depends
upon smart people that are well educated that can run
this state. You know, smart tradesmen, smart lawyers, smart plumbers,

(27:13):
smart doctors, smart well maybe talk show hosts. But we'll
never get one of those test scores. Post pandemic data
from twenty twenty one Colorado measures of academic success.

Speaker 3 (27:27):
Those scores showed.

Speaker 2 (27:28):
Math performance dropping to only twenty seven percent, meeting expectations.
Can I just run it down to twenty five just
so I can call it a quarter? Only a quarter
of test scores meant expectations.

Speaker 3 (27:49):
I suppose in Colorado.

Speaker 2 (27:50):
The reaction to that should be within lower year expectations.
Your expectations are too high. If you expected more than
a quarter, well maybe so you get twenty seven point
four percent. So if you were only hoping that, oh,
let's just hope that went out of every four kids
actually meets the math scores, well, then you've exceeded your expectations.

(28:14):
But I would have hoped for, oh, I don't know,
would be unreasonable to expect that maybe seventy five percent
of might exceed test scores from thirty two point seven
percent pre pandemic and literacy literacy falling to forty three
percent less than half. Less than half of kids in

(28:39):
this state pass literacy tests, which I assume means they
can't read aright. Achievement gaps achievement gaps for minority, poor,
and special education students, which the rate we're going right now,
pretty soon all children are going to be either minority

(29:01):
or poor or special edd because the dumbing down of
Colorado achievement gaps for minority, poor, and special edge special
head students remains stubborn. Stubborn, with post twenty twenty data
showing regression. Now, for those of you who are recent

(29:22):
graduates of public education. The word regression means that it's
getting worse and worse and worse or worser and worser
and eventually be the worsest. Yeah, exodus. In other words,
how many people are moving in moving up? Colorado fell?

(29:44):
Well that's guy, what the whole point of this is
Colorado fell from a top ten state for in migration.
All you damn Californians, Texans and others you know, like
vacation in Colorado, So I want to move there now? Yeah,
all of you. Well you originally had us in the
top ten states for in migration to now we're in

(30:07):
the bottom ten, which I might say, maybe that's a
good thing. I don't know, but you can't grow without
an increase in population, and we're now in the bottom ten.

Speaker 3 (30:20):
How about you. It's great to a break the others
coming up next.

Speaker 6 (30:24):
Good morning, Michael. I'm not sure if your red microphone
is working or not this morning, because I left to
talk back and then it was just the circle of death. Anyhow,
YouTube Rocky Mountain heist that shows the blueprint for taking
over beautiful red states, and that is my sphere of
influence this morning. Have a good one.

Speaker 3 (30:49):
What dragon I know about the blueprint?

Speaker 4 (30:52):
What was the first thing she was saying that she
doesn't believe her little red microphone in the app was
working properly because she got the spinning wheel death once
she left it, and so I did not receive that talkback.
But this one, this one came through.

Speaker 2 (31:03):
Yeah, okay, good, okay. Let's get to homelessness. I want
to finish these homelessness. The number of people living without
homes is increase. Urban areas across Denver Boulder Area, Lakewood,
their metropolitan statistical area, face visible crises. Well we know that,
just drive around.

Speaker 3 (31:19):
Look. Drugs overdose deaths rose.

Speaker 2 (31:23):
From seventeen point four for every one hundred thousand residents
back in twenty eighteen to more than thirty for everye
hundred thousand residents in twenty twenty three, the year for
which the latest data is available. That's the seventy three
percent increase. Of course, that corresponds with decriminalization of illicit drugs.
We have the country's second highest rate of teenage fentonyl

(31:46):
overdose deaths.

Speaker 3 (31:48):
Yay, we're number two.

Speaker 2 (31:50):
The second highest of teens dying from fentanyl overdoses.

Speaker 3 (31:54):
What's you doing?

Speaker 2 (31:55):
About that, Governor, you've dumbass politicians out the polit bureau
public approval. The twenty twenty four Colorado Political Climate Survey
shows only thirty three percent a third rate the economy positively.
With partisan divides, fifty two percent of Democrats think, oh,
