Speaker 5 (03:08):
Because I looked down as I was reading. Hang on,
I read ahead because the first line, let me go
back to su job.

Speaker 7 (03:14):
That's hil, I was stupid. Did you hear what you said?

Speaker 4 (03:17):
No?

Speaker 5 (03:17):
I didn't because the first line in the blog is

That was what was I telling you about brain fog

Speaker 7 (03:32):
Okay, you're gonna find them in school.

Speaker 8 (03:33):

Speaker 5 (03:42):
We should send that to Agnes to use for her
web series for tweens.

Speaker 7 (03:46):
That's not bad.

Speaker 5 (03:46):
Yeah, I like it. Here the headlines you will find
in school. Anyway, We're going to talk to Christy Burton
Brown in about twenty minutes because she not only is
running her own race for the Board of Education, she
is also running in support of Amendment eighty. And Amendment
eighty is the amendment to our constitution that would codify
meaning it would protect school choice going forward in Colorado. Now,

(04:10):
a few years ago, I would have said to you
this is not needed. We have a robust school choice system.
Some of our charter schools are some of the best
schools in the state. Right, but the tide has turned.
As here's the thing about teachers unions. People think, Okay,

(04:30):
we voted in school choice, now we have charter schools.
Everything's fine, nothing's going to change. I can take my
eye off the ball, right because I got other things
to worry about. I got stuff, I got family, I
got work, I got other things I have to worry about.
But the teachers unions never have anything else to worry
about except trying to regain power over charter schools and
eventually private and religious schools. That is the endgame of

(04:53):
the teachers unions is to have control over every single
educational opportunity in the world. That is the end because
they view all of those people as potential dues payers. Now,
when you look at who is going and we're going
to talk more about this with Christy Burton Brown, when
you look at who is against Amendment eighty, you begin

(05:16):
to realize how important it is because this is them
playing the long game. And if you care about school choice,
if you care about the thousands and thousands and thousands
of Colorado students whose parents make other decisions for them
based on what's right for their kids, then you must
vote for Amendment eighty. It is not a perfect amendment,
but it is better than nothing. And if it goes down,

(05:38):
it not only goes down, it emboldens all of the
teachers' unions and their lackeys on the boards of education
across the state to go after charter schools and try
to shut them down or bring them under state and
therefore union control. That is the endgame here. So we're
gonna talk to Christy Burton Brown about that in just
a few minutes. There is a debate tonight at DU
about ranked choice voting, and I realized that a lot

(06:02):
of you are not for this amendment, but I am.
This changes the way. It's not an amendment. I don't
think it's just a proposition. This would change the way
we cast our ballots. We've gone over at numerous times.
I am an enthusiastic yes for this initiative. And now
we know that Aurora mayor Mike Kaufman is an enthusiastic

(06:23):
yes on this amendment. What makes the column that he
put in the Denver Gazette especially interesting is that Mike
Kaufman was Secretary of State in two thousand and six.
He was succeeded by Bernie Buscher. I think that's how
you say his last name. He was appointed. I believe
when Mike won office to go to Congress. I think
I don't have that for sure. I wasn't here then.

(06:45):
I'm just doing my best to think of what could
have happened there, and together these two former secretaries of
state are advocating for this position. I think that's very interesting.
So I'd urge you to read his column. If you
want to learn more about it, you can go to
the debate tonight at DU I believe tickets are still available.

(07:09):
Jason Lupo is the founder of First Choice Counts. He
will be there on the no side with Candace Stuts
rim stuts rhyme. Sorry, Candace, I might be slaughtering your
last name. Candace Stutt's rhyme of the Truth and Liberty Coalition.
They're going to argue against it, and in favor of
it will be Kent Theory and Nick Troiano of United America.

(07:31):
We're going to talk to Nick at about one point
thirty to get a preview of what that will look like.
So that is what's coming up. And then so today
I got here a little bit early because I was
recording some commercials with the Gravinas, and then we got
done with that, and so I was perusing the web
getting ready to come and do the show, and I
saw Danielle Drinsky, the Aurora City Councilwoman's Twitter feed, and

(07:53):
she has started releasing documents to back up the things
that she has been saying the things that she's been saying,
and trying to get help with help for trying to
organize some response to while not only dealing with a
non responsive government that she ostensibly as a city council
member is supposed to work with. But disparaging remarks from

(08:16):
our governor, disparaging remarks from so many other people. The
governor even said this was a figment of her imagination.
And now she's releasing emails that clearly show the Aurora
Police Department knew that the Venezuelan gang that walked off
over our porous Biden Harris Southern border, that gang is

(08:37):
operating in Aurora, and the Aurora Police Department knew it.
In twenty twenty three, they were sending out memos that
police officers should not respond to those apartment complexes alone.
They were sending out memos on this gang. There's video
that is in the Daily Mail yesterday showing a woman,
a Guatemalan immigrant, telling police that this gang through boiling

(09:00):
water on her and her husband while she was pregnant
as they were extorting money from her. And you know what,
I have Danielle Duranski's back a thousand times on this.
I cannot imagine how frustrating it has been to know
that you are telling the truth, to know that what
you are saying is accurate, to know that citizens in

(09:21):
your district were suffering because of it. And to have
everybody react like you're some kind of crazy person. I mean,
come on, this has been the ultimate gas light. It
really has. This has been a masterclass in gaslighting. But
now she's bringing she's showing the evidence on her twitter
feed if you want to follow her, I put a
link on my blog to her twitter feeds, so you
could do that as well. So let's get right into

(09:42):
something that most of you did not watch last night.
So last night, last night, Kamala Harris was on CNN.
And now Kamala Harris has been the assumed candidate for
to a little over two months, right, she should have

(10:06):
answers to pretty much every question, except she hasn't done
challenging interviews. She hasn't done enough interviews. She hasn't put
her in a position where she's had to, you know,
really work out or formulate these answers. But last night
it was on display and it was really shocking. Just
when I think maybe maybe there's a chance I'm wrong,

(10:27):
maybe she's not a complete empty suit, completely devoid of substance,
and then and exchange like this, what happens?

Speaker 6 (10:33):
Ay?

Speaker 9 (10:33):
Rod?

Speaker 5 (10:33):
Can I have my computer please?

Speaker 8 (10:35):
Sir?

Speaker 5 (10:38):
I just want you to put on your listening ears
and listen to this.

Speaker 10 (10:43):
Some voters, though, might ask, you've been in the White
House for four years, you were vice president, not the president,
but why wasn't any of that done.

Speaker 11 (10:50):
In the last four years?

Speaker 12 (10:52):
Well there was a lot that was done, but there's
more to do, Anderson, and I'm pointing out things that
need to be done that haven't been done but need
to be done.

Speaker 10 (11:00):
Some voters, though, might ask you again, for four years,
your vice president, not the president, but why wasn't any
of that done for the last four years?

Speaker 12 (11:09):
Well, there was a lot that was done, but there's
more to do. Anderson, and I'm pointing out things that
need to be done, that haven't been done but need
to be done.

Speaker 5 (11:17):
Some voters, though, you do you understand she's pointing out
things that haven't been done but need to be done,
while also recognizing that some things have been done. So
we need to focus on what's been done rather than
thinking about the things that need to be done that
she's pointing out that haven't been done yet. This person,
I would not vote for them to be the president

(11:37):
of the PTO. At my daughter school, if someone got
up and gave that kind of nonsensical garbage answer. I
would start laughing. I don't know how Anderson Cooper didn't laugh.
But that's not all They give you. Another high point.

Speaker 10 (11:51):
Is there something you can point to in your life,
political life, or in your life in the last four
years that you think is a mistake that you have
learned from.

Speaker 12 (12:00):
I mean, I've made many mistakes, and they range from
you know, if you've ever parented a child, you know
you make lots of mistakes too. In my role as
vice president, I mean, I've probably worked very hard at
making sure that I am well versed on issues, and

(12:26):
I think that.

Speaker 5 (12:27):
Is very important.

Speaker 12 (12:27):
It's a mistake not to be well versed on an
issue and feel compelled to answer a question.

Speaker 5 (12:33):
Does anybody understand what she just said? He asked, have
you made any mistakes in the past few years? Have
you made any mistakes? If a rod asked me that
question right now, just right off the time, I haven't
even thought about it. Ask me the question? Ay right,
ay roight ay. Roch asked me the question, have you
made any mistakes in the last few years?

Speaker 7 (12:54):
Have you made any mistakes in the last few years?

Speaker 9 (12:56):
Yes?

Speaker 5 (12:56):
I let Anthony Rodriguez talk me into interviewing Mike Lindell.
That is my mistake from the last few years.

Speaker 7 (13:02):
It's not a mistake. It was great. We gave him
a platform here.

Speaker 8 (13:07):
We had to say we didn't attack him, because not
everything has to be attack journalism.

Speaker 5 (13:11):
Yep, you're right, you're right. It's it's not over though,
the Kamala, the Kamala town hall, it's not over. We
got more because any minute it's gonna be good. It's
gonna it's gonna uh. I'll just I'll just let her talk.

Speaker 10 (13:24):
Under Donald Trump, you criticized the wall more than fifty times.
You called it stupid, useless and a medieval vanity project.

Speaker 11 (13:32):
Is a border wall stupid?

Speaker 12 (13:34):
Well, let's talk about Donald Trump in that border wall.
You remember Donald Trump said Mexico would pay for it.

Speaker 5 (13:42):
Come on, no, wait a minute, you guys. She appears
to be looking at a crowd. Was there a crowd
there last night, because if so, all of her laughing
and jokes landed completely flattening floor director.

Speaker 8 (13:52):
The amount of eye contact that maybe that floor director
made with her at that at that juncture there, maybe
it wasn't a live audience because it's probably, like we
can keep.

Speaker 5 (14:02):
At this point You're like, do you I have a booger? Like,
what's going on? Do you have something on my face?
At Okay, but let's I'll let her continue to go
on about the border wall.

Speaker 12 (14:11):
Well, let's talk about Donald Trump and that border wall.
So remember Donald Trump said Mexico would pay for it.
Come on, they didn't. How much of that wall did
he build? I think the last number I saw was
about two percent. And then when it came from time
for him to do a photo op, you know where
he did it in the part of the wall that
President Obama built.

Speaker 10 (14:32):
But you were agreed to a bill that would hear
MOREK six hundred and fifty million dollars to continue building
that way, I pledge that I.

Speaker 12 (14:39):
Am going to bring forward that bipartisan bill to further
strengthen and secure our border. Yes I am, and I'm
going to work across the aisle to pass a comprehensive
bill that deals with a broken immigration system. I think
Jackson's question part of it was acknowledge that America has

(15:02):
always had migration, but there needs to be a legal
process for it.

Speaker 5 (15:07):
Oh my god, there is.

Speaker 11 (15:08):
You have to earn it.

Speaker 12 (15:09):
And that's the point that I think is the most
important point that can be made, which is we need
a president always grounded in common sense and practical outcomes.

Speaker 5 (15:20):
Like, let's count fix this thing. I can't. Let's just
fix it.

Speaker 12 (15:23):
Why is there any ideological perspective.

Speaker 5 (15:27):
Problem?

Speaker 10 (15:27):
Yeah, to fix the problem, you're doing this compromise bill.
It does call for six hundred and fifty million dollars
that was her marked under Trump to actually still go
to build a wall.

Speaker 12 (15:36):
I'm not afraid of good ideas where they occurred.

Speaker 11 (15:39):
Say, you don't think it's stupid anymore.

Speaker 12 (15:41):
I think what he did and how he did it
it was did not make much sense because he actually
didn't do much of anything. I just talked about that wall, right,
we just talked about it. He didn't actually do much
of anything.

Speaker 11 (15:53):
But you do want to build some wall? Weird?

Speaker 12 (15:55):
Did I want to strengthen our border?

Speaker 5 (15:58):
You guys? You guys. This was an absolute disaster for
Kamala Harris disaster, not that anybody saw it, but clips
like this one are flying around social media today like crazy.

Speaker 8 (16:10):
I think the Beastie Boys are even face palming at
this sabotage.

Speaker 5 (16:15):
Lord have mercy, really, honestly, though, my favorite one may
always be This is almost as good as you know
the passage of time, A rod.

Speaker 10 (16:25):
Might as you've been in the White House for four years,
your vice president, not the president's But why wasn't any
of that done?

Speaker 5 (16:32):
This clip?

Speaker 12 (16:33):
Well, there was a lot that was done, but there's
more to do, Anderson, and I'm pointing out things that
need to be done that haven't been done but need
to be done.

Speaker 5 (16:42):
I mean, you, guys, that's passage of time, exactly, exactly saving.
I actually did not put the whole thing on the
blog last night. I usually I usually embed it, but
you guys, you're gonna get dumber if you watch it.
If you watch the whole thing, you are guaranteed to

(17:02):
be stupider than you were at the beginning of your
viewing session. As a matter of fact, like forget lead pipes.
Last night's CNN town hall with Kamala Harris is surely
going to drop your IQ more than anything else in
the entire world. We'll be right back with Christy Burton Brown.

Speaker 12 (17:19):
Yes, okay, I'm pointing out things that need to be
done that haven't been done but need to be done.

Speaker 5 (17:27):
Last night the CNN debate, there's a zero percent chance
I'd show up if I was Donald Trump on CNN?
Why Why are Republicans always supposed to capitulate? When was
the last Fox News debate? You know, I'm tired of that.
Why didn't you show up on another left wing network
that's going to make it as easy as possible to

(17:47):
make the other candidate look good? Why would he? There's
no reason for that anyway. So that's the first thing.
And by the way, he has already said he wasn't
doing another debate on CNN or anywhere else, So I
don't have an issue with that. Now the take on
John Kelly's and Jeffrey Goldberg from The Atlantic, Jeffrey Goldberg has,

(18:07):
according to the people that he allegedly got the background
for the story on, has made up this story out
of whole cloth. And I have a question about John Kelly.
We're supposed to believe right now today, John Kelly, former
general former chiefs of staff for Donald J.

Speaker 7 (18:25):
Trump.

Speaker 11 (18:25):
We're supposed to.

Speaker 5 (18:26):
Believe that John Kelly is a beyond reproach. He is
as upstanding a citizen as there has ever been in
the history of citizenry. And yet I'm also supposed to
believe that he listened to his boss talk about admiring Hitler,
but he didn't quit. He didn't say, you know what,
maybe I don't want to work for this guy. And

(18:46):
stayed with him for a good bit of time after that.
And then and then after he got out of office,
he waited. He didn't tell anybody, even though Donald Trump
has been running for office how long now over a year?
And John Kelly just now, right this very second, John
Kelly just remembered, Oh my god, how could I have

(19:08):
forgotten Donald Trump loves Hitler? Oh my god, it slipped
my mind until now. I mean, if you can't see
how absurd that is. And here's the other part about
this whole thing, you guys. The Democrats have called in
my lifetime George Herbert Walker Bush Hitler, George W. Bush Hitler,

(19:31):
ntt Romney, who's literally the nicest man you're ever gonna
meet in your life, Hitler, John McCain Hitler. Everybody can't
be Hitler, you guys. Everybody can't be special. Everybody doesn't
get a medal, everybody doesn't get to say hi, how
me nobody? We can't all be Hitler. So at this point,

(19:52):
and when the Democrats start yelling Hitler Hitler, Hitler, Hitler,
It's comical. Do you not see how funny and absurd
it is? It's just guess what you know? Who wasn't Hitler?
George Herbert Roker Bush. Do you know who else was
in Hitler? George W. Bush? Do you know super not Hitler,

(20:12):
Mitt Romney, Jean McCain isn't even Hitler. And by the way,
in his first term in office, are we are we
living under a Hilarian scenario right now? Because Donald Trump
was already in office for four years. He didn't he
didn't put Jewish people in camps. As a matter of fact,

(20:34):
he might be the worst Hitler ever because he actually
moved the US embassy to Jerusalem, something all these other
presidents who were not Hitler said they were gonna do,
but they didn't do. He did it, and he sent
his son in law over to to fall relations between
Saudi Arabia and Israel, which I actually think is now
paying dividends in the Middle East. We're not necessarily seeing it.

(20:58):
But guess what Saudi Arabia is like, sit back, going, yeah,
if you want to take out Aroun, that's okay with us.
That's what happens under Donald Trump administration, and only now
he's hitler. Now, just now he's hitler. I mean, you guys,
come on. It's as absurd as the story that came
out over on social media a couple days ago where

(21:18):
a guy said that he was a student of Tim
walls is in high school and Tim Walls touched him inappropriately.
When I saw that, I was like, oh, yeah, okay, sure,
I believe that.

Speaker 8 (21:32):
Now.

Speaker 5 (21:32):
What I do believe is that Doug m Hoff, the
want to be first gentleman, is now or his longtime
ex who The story came out several weeks ago that
at an event in con France, Doug m Hoff slapped
his date across the face before getting into a car

(21:52):
and driving away in front of a bunch of people
at a valet line. So now she has come out
and is talking to the Daily Mail with a lot
of receipts. But that story has been poop pooed by
the left wing media as not important, just a distraction,
just a distraction, and it's a distraction from the new
line that Trump is hitler, even though all evidence to

(22:14):
the contrary, all evidence by the way other people hang,
let me just do this. I should have pulled all
this stuff on the brake, but it didn't. But I
can find it very very quickly. A lot of people
that worked in that administration are coming out to say

(22:35):
that they never heard that kind of talk from Donald Trump,
even though they don't like him now, and they're basically
denying that what did any of that actually happen? So
it is, by the way, the family of the soldier
that was exploited by Jeffrey Goldberg in that article has

(22:58):
now come out to say the part he made up
about him complaining about funerals and everything else was completely
fabricated and they just voted for Donald Trump. So that's
what I think of John Kelly. I think John Kelly
is mad because his reputation was damaged when he was fired,
and this is his best chance of revenge. And if
it was really true, then what does it say about

(23:19):
John Kelly that he waits until right now to tell us?
And I think that is a legitimate question that should
be asked. Why did you keep it to yourself? Why?
I mean you guys, I have been in situations where
I really needed a job, but if I walked in
my boss and I'm gonna use black people as an example, right,
I'm gonna use black people here. If I walked in

(23:40):
and heard my boss going on a racist tear against
black people, I would immediately find another job because I
don't want to be associated with that. I don't want
my name attached to that. And if someone is truly hitler,
I mean it's only a matter of time before it
truly comes out. So the whole John Kelly thing, I
think is a political bit of hackery, just like I

(24:00):
think the Tim Wall sing was a bit of political hackery,
but it is designed to obfuscape from the real stories
like the one about Kamala Harris's husband slapping his wife
that he has never responded to other than to say
nuh nuh. So that's where we're going with that. So

(24:22):
any other conversation about John Kelly will be ignored because
it's just not something that I give any credence to.
It's the worst October surprise ever. And I will tell
you the collective eye roll that this trip Trump is
a Nazi thing that's been met with not by hardcore
partisans on the left because they can't say it enough.
They can't run around and scream hitler enough when it

(24:44):
comes to Donald Trump, because that's all they have. They
cannot advocate for their candidate because she's terrible, because she
was appointed undemocratically, and they sure as hell shouldn't be
running around talking about saving democracy when none of them
even voted for her. Give me a break, Mandy. If
Trump is hitler, then Barack, Joe and Kamala are Stalin,

(25:07):
Lenin and Mao. You know, even I don't think they
are that bad. I think we can all agree as Americans,
no matter what your political viewpoints are, that we are
lucky to live in a nation that has not ever
had to worry about a despot. We've never had to
worry about overthrowing a regime that is out of control

(25:29):
because our systems work, they work well, and you have
to trust him until they fall apart completely, which gond
happen at any minute, any minute. All right, when we
get back, I do have some other stuff on the
text line. It's very interesting you guys texting me today
because they're all over the place, very very all over
the place. We'll be right back. We've got a whole

(25:53):
bunch of cool stories on the blog, none better than
this one. Anthony cotsin Durango got called there was some
mischief in the streets of Durrango. Something was hopping around
causing trouble. Nope, even better, a kangaroo.

Speaker 7 (26:09):
Oh, it's probably from Denver.

Speaker 5 (26:11):
Nope, No, it's actually a family kangaroo. So this family
has a kangaroo pet and they apparently maybe hopped over
the fence. I don't know, but kangaroo got out. He's
gotten away from his family. Durrango police did manage to
track it down. They sat after a hopping speed chase.
They were able to capture the little guy or turn

(26:31):
him to his family. Here's my question, if you had
a kangaroo, is there any other name that you could
give a kangaroo other than captain?

Speaker 2 (26:40):
Uh?

Speaker 7 (26:41):
Yes, what would you name your kangaroo movie with Anthony Anderson?

Speaker 8 (26:45):
Oh, my gosh, Anthony Anderson kangaroo movie Kangaroo Jack, Kangaroo Jack.

Speaker 5 (26:53):
The No, No, okay, now there's an age schism here.
Captain you name him captain Kangaroos.

Speaker 7 (27:01):
What you're saying is we combined both and you got
Captain Jack.

Speaker 5 (27:05):
Oh, I maybe.

Speaker 7 (27:08):
If I will, if I may for a moment, I
boot the zoo.

Speaker 8 (27:12):
The other day, we're walking along with passing enclosure and
looks like nothing back there.

Speaker 7 (27:16):
I turned back around. Boom.

Speaker 8 (27:17):
I don't know if you call it a herd or
a group or a dollop, I don't know whatever of
kangaroo just run through their enclosure and just pop right there.

Speaker 7 (27:29):
Into the into eye line and we're like, oh my gosh,
kangaroo's are deanver Zoo. I hadn't gone since they got him.
And the new enclosure is awesome looking.

Speaker 5 (27:36):
Kangaroos look so cute and like you're like, oh, and
the headline. I actually did this story just so I
could use the headline. Remove your pause from your pocket,
slowly get it like the cops were anyway. So I
didn't say it was a good joke. I just said
that's why I did the story. Yeah, but I do
think that if you ask people my age, they would
say name the kangaroo captain, whereas you're making a good

(27:59):
case for King Jack. But that was from two thousand
and three. Yeah, so I need texters five six six,
N I know, what do you wait? What do you
name your kangaroo? If you got one? You know, our
friend Kelly Mayer has a wallaby.

Speaker 7 (28:11):
What's the difference.

Speaker 8 (28:12):
Well, I think most of them at the Zoom might
be wallabies. That I mean, I think they said kangaroo,
but they're all small enough.

Speaker 7 (28:19):
I think they're wallaby.

Speaker 5 (28:20):
No, they're different. Okay, we might have to get Kelly
on the phone a little bit later in the show
to find out. But if I had a kangaroo for me,
it would be Captain. I'd be like, yeah, captain.

Speaker 13 (28:29):
What's up?

Speaker 5 (28:30):
But have you ever seen like a really full grown
male kangaroo? Have you ever seen these photos? They are
scary as hell. They're jacked. They are jacked, very scary.
The name should be kanga kana kangaroo just sounds like
a bad stutter. A mob of kangaroos, that's what this
person says. I have no idea if that's right or not.

(28:51):
Kanga or roo Winnie the Pooh books, Yeah, boo at
the zoo. I didn't know a rod has a kid?
You borrowed a kid?

Speaker 14 (28:57):
Right?

Speaker 7 (28:58):
Nephews every year yearly tradition? Boo zoo.

Speaker 5 (29:00):
You know what how old are your nephews now?

Speaker 7 (29:02):
Oh? God, fifteen and ten eleven?

Speaker 5 (29:08):
What are you gonna do when they age out?

Speaker 7 (29:11):
Do you mean an age out?

Speaker 5 (29:12):
Your your nephews will age out of stuff. Yeah they will.

Speaker 9 (29:15):
Oh.

Speaker 8 (29:15):
I even made the point while on the way and
on the way back. You just tell you guys know

We're always gonna go together. Okay, And they agreed, Okay,
So let me.

Speaker 7 (29:25):
Be the older one.

Speaker 8 (29:26):
I'm starting to get a little worried about from him. No, no, no,
he still loves hanging out with us. But eventually it's
gonna be like a I'm good or we're gonna hit
him up. Hey, it's a yearly tradition when they go
up the younger one, the younger one.

Speaker 5 (29:38):
I got my girlfriend. My girlfriend's Kevin.

Speaker 7 (29:42):
He's he's a ladies man too, doesn't he.

Speaker 5 (29:46):
So here are the names we've gotten this person, says
Captain for sure. Yeah, how about just we got Joey,
You got Captain. I do not like kangaroos. They freak
me out, says this Texter. Skippy Skippy would be a
good name for a kangaroo. Hoppy that from Gael Skippy. Yeah,
he's the kind of a skip. Look, Skippy's hopping. Kangaroos

(30:06):
are like rats and pests to the assis. Yeah, there
are a lot of them, I would I would more
liken them to alligators in Florida, Like people do not
realize how many alligators are in Florida, And I mean
from the very top of Florida, the very bottom of Florida.

Speaker 8 (30:20):
Their alligators everywhere. I could easily google it, but it's
not as fun. Do only the female ones have the pouch?

Speaker 5 (30:29):
Hmmm this I don't know the answer to kangaroos.

Speaker 7 (30:33):
Oh wait, now I gouts ask the right question.

Speaker 5 (30:35):
Fyi. Kangaroo's evolved in South America, says this text. Are
crossing the land bridges from Antarctica to Australia. Do male
kangaroos have the pouch? Let's see that's serious. Okay, let's see.
The name should be kannga Joey. That's a good one.
That's a baby kangaroo, Joey. Let's see a lot of kanga,

(30:58):
a lot of roo hoppy, punchy.

Speaker 8 (31:01):
She wants to call it kangus khan, which is the
pokemon version of a kangaroo.

Speaker 5 (31:05):
That would be pretty funny. Tengus gone kengus as in
k A n g a s kengis khan.

Speaker 7 (31:10):
Yeah, Kanamala, that's.

Speaker 5 (31:15):
That sounds like a weird dinosaur kangaroos are terrifying. The
name should be Stephen. Is Stephen terrifying? Who is Stephen?

Speaker 7 (31:25):
Why is Steven?

Speaker 8 (31:26):
But I'd rather go with like if we're going like
human names, like Chad, Chad could be a jer Kevin
chaddosure last night that Chad exactly is the Isn't that
the longa from the point dynamite?

Speaker 7 (31:40):
No, that's Tina. Excuse me, excuse me. That's all right.

Speaker 5 (31:46):
Uh, somebody's gotta explain the the Stephen thing to me.
I need to know gingis Khan, gingis kang Us? Gone,
I know Kengus. For anyway, Well, we're gonna be back,
and this time for real. Christy Burton Brown is joining
us one clock to talk about Amendment eighty. That's coming
up next.

Speaker 1 (32:04):
The Mandy Connell Show is sponsored by Belle and Pollock

Speaker 11 (32:19):
S God.

Speaker 15 (32:21):
Say the nicety three bendy Toronal keeping is sad bab welcome, welcome, welcome,
keeping ignorance at bay Indeed, and.

Speaker 5 (32:34):
Right now we're going to talk about some ignorance lying
around about the proposed Amendment number eighty. Joining me now
is Christy Burton Brown with Advanced Colorado. Also side note,
she's also running for the Board of Education in the
fourth district and I already voted for her or her
So there you go. My secret ballot is out now Christy,
welcome to the show.

Speaker 9 (32:54):
First of all, thank you, Mandy, I appreciate it.

Speaker 5 (32:57):
Andrew vote, Well, we're going to talk first about the
Amendment eighty, which is a school choice amendment and Advanced
Colorado and what other organization put this forth? It just
went out of my head.

Speaker 9 (33:11):
Actually, we are the organization at Putts Okay, so we
have a good coalition supporting it.

Speaker 5 (33:15):
Okay, great, So Advanced Colorado puts this forth. It is
a very simply worded amendment and that I think is
part of its beauty, but also part of the issues
that have arisen, or at least issues that have been
seized on by people who don't want this to pass.
And I want to start by talking about where are
the money's coming from on the anti side, Kelly, because now, no, no,

(33:39):
let's not start there. Tell people what Amendment eighty does
and why it's important that it passes. First, let's start there.

Speaker 9 (33:46):
Sure you're right, Mandy, that is actually completely simple. Out
of all the fourteen measures on your ballot, Amendment eighty
is basic. It is putting the right to school choice
we've enjoyed in Colorado for decades in our constitution so
that it's no longer at the mercy of politicians who
can change it whenever they want.

Speaker 5 (34:01):
So the purpose of this is to push back against
the sort of shifting tides in Colorado because Colorado, and
I talked to my listeners about this earlier, Christy, Colorado
was really at the forefront of the school choice movement
many years ago, and because of that, we have a
vibrant charter school community. We have a vibrant home school
community with great supports, but they are outside the control

(34:23):
of the teachers union. And that's what brings us to
who's spending against Amendment eighty. Is it all coming from
teachers unions or there are other people trying to get
this defeated.

Speaker 9 (34:34):
So it is almost entirely coming from the teachers Union.
And what I think people really need to know is
that it's the National Teachers Union who's funding the majority
of the campaign putting those ads on your TV and
lying about an amendment eighty.

Speaker 6 (34:47):
As of a few.

Speaker 9 (34:48):
Days ago, the National Teachers Union had put in over
four million dollars, and the other roughly million dollars that
they have has come from in a state, the Colorado
Teachers Union and a couple other organizations that smaller amounts.

Speaker 6 (35:02):
But it really is National Teachers.

Speaker 9 (35:04):
Union doesn't understand our system here in Colorado, doesn't know
how popular it is, aligned to voters telling them this
is threatening public school funding when the Colorado Fiscal note
by a non partisan government agency, so this is zero
dollar fiscal impact.

Speaker 6 (35:19):
This is not a funding amendment.

Speaker 5 (35:21):
So one of the things I want to take a
little bit of a different tact than you just did.
I do believe that the teachers unions know how popular
this is. I do believe that they understand that we
have a vibrant charter school system and they absolutely hate it.
And even though all of the people who voted for
school choice and all of the people who have supported
charter schools in Colorado over the years, they've all moved

(35:44):
on right because they have jobs and families and they
figure it's done so we don't have to worry about
it anymore. Whereas the teachers' unions never stop thinking about
how to undermine and destroy a parent's option to choose
the educational opportunity for their kid that best fits that kid,
which is at the heart of this amendment. I do

(36:04):
want to ask them, Yeah, oh go ahead, I'm.

Speaker 9 (36:07):
Just going to say, and I agree with you that
their motives are very interfarious when you look at what
they do. They like to come in from any you know,
from their national high place, and come into any state
and say, doesn't matter what you guys think of your system, right,
hate it, and so we're going to fight it.

Speaker 5 (36:23):
So let me ask you about some of the criticisms
that have been levied against Amendment eighty. And the biggest,
most common one that I have heard from kind of
a surprising place is from homeschoolers or charter school parents
who say, wait a minute, does this give the government
any way to sort of finagle their way in under
the guise of quote ensuring equality education.

Speaker 9 (36:46):
Sure, and I've heard that concerned as well, and I
think it comes from a good motive, but it's misplaced.
When you look at at Amendment eighty, it is like
the fact is the legislature could meet tomorrow in their
next session and put any restriction on our rights to
school choice that they want to.

Speaker 6 (37:02):
They don't need our permission to do that. And that,
in fact, is the exact.

Speaker 9 (37:05):
Reason we need Amendment eighty is because you tell politicians
to get their hands off your rights when you put
them in the constitution. Because only the voters in Colorado
can change the constitution, not the legislature.

Speaker 6 (37:17):
So you know the language, the operative language, This is
very simple.

Speaker 9 (37:21):
It is the right to school choice. And parents always
exercise rights in Colorado on behalf of their children, so
that's also very clear. Even though the right to school
choice is being given to every case through twelve child,
the purpose language also says every parent has the right
to direct the education of their child. That's an general
precedent Colorado can't violate. So this means parental rights and

(37:42):
school choice rights in our constitutions.

Speaker 5 (37:44):
This to me should be a no brainer, I mean, honestly,
but is it enough of an issue to get people
to say, yeah, we need to put this in our constitution.
I mean, I know that we have a large chunk
of our children. For any state, we have a pretty
good chunk of our children in charter schools. I know
that out of the top ten most successful schools in
the state, a good chunk of those are charter schools

(38:06):
or private schools. I think there's only one public high
school in the top ten. So I mean, I'm just
afraid there's complacency and people saying, look, why do we
need this, Why do we need this now? After we
have this vibrant system already.

Speaker 9 (38:21):
Sure and India, I actually think you're right that people
tend to get complacent when you have rights that are
currently protected.

Speaker 6 (38:28):
And you're not seeing the attacks coming on the horizon.

Speaker 9 (38:31):
Where we work in the education issue every day and
we see what the legislature is proposing and that they're
trying to, in their own words, attempts to create the
beginning of the end for charter schools.

Speaker 6 (38:42):
In Colorado, we have the second highest population in the nation.

Speaker 9 (38:45):
Of charter school students. But I think a good relation
that people can.

Speaker 6 (38:49):
See is the property taxes. Before our property.

Speaker 9 (38:52):
Tax spikes that happened last year. There was actually an
amendment on the ballot that would have stopped whose spikes
from happening and replaced Gallan with something effective, and voters
voted it down because they weren't feeling the effect of
high property taxes, and now then this year you saw
everyone in the really said about it and wanted to
fix right.

Speaker 6 (39:11):
I hope the same thing doesn't.

Speaker 9 (39:12):
Happen to school choice. That people are like, well, we
have the rights, we like them, why.

Speaker 6 (39:16):
Put them in the constitution.

Speaker 9 (39:17):
And then two years from now we see major attacks
succeed against school choice rights, and then people are like, oh, shoot,
we should.

Speaker 6 (39:24):
Have passed it. Like we're basically saying, be proactive.

Speaker 9 (39:27):
If you like the rights you have on school choice,
get ahead of the politicians, put them in the constitution.

Speaker 6 (39:32):
Don't leave yourself at their mercy.

Speaker 5 (39:34):
And what are the things that I think people don't
necessarily pay attention to is the Board of Education in Colorado,
And people may not realize that if you are in
the Boulder Valley School District, your chances of getting a
charter school approved are very very low. So the option
to go and become a charter school under the Board
of Education to get around from anti charter union controlled

(39:55):
school boards is a huge thing that has to remain.
But it's my understanding, and maybe you can correct me
if you're wrong, since you're running for the board of Education.
The makeup of the Board of Education has changed in
such a way that puts those new approvals through the
state perhaps at risk. Is that accurate?

Speaker 9 (40:14):
Yesitely, actually all going to depend on the election this November,
because right now, even though it's a six ' to
three Democrat majority on the board, it's full of five
to four pro charter majority. But because what happened in
one of the Democrat primaries this year, it's set up
to be an anti charter board unless Yasmin Navarro and
CD eight wins.

Speaker 6 (40:35):
The Board of EDC. If she wins, there's still one
Democrat on the board who's.

Speaker 9 (40:38):
Pro school choice, in pro charter, who could still have
a pro charter majority if Yasmin wins.

Speaker 5 (40:44):
You know, Christy, it's kind of crazy to me that
this has become so politicized on the Republican and Democrat side,
because there's an organization called Democrats for School Choice. So
this didn't used to be a highly politicized issue. When
did that happen? When did we go from everybody saying, look,
we want every kid to succeed, and we want parents

(41:05):
who know their kids better than anybody else to help
them succeed, and yet here we are still having this conversation.
When did that shift take place?

Speaker 9 (41:14):
You know, I think, honestly, Manby, it has been a
shift among to your point, elected Democrats, not Democrats on
the ground. We've been pulling this issue their support for
school choice and keeping those rights in the constitution, you know,
a majority among all political parties. And that's true across
the nation because parents belong to all political parties and
want their kids to succeed. But I'd say about the

(41:35):
last ten years in Colorado, the Democrat Party has elected
more people who are anti charter school, anti choice, and
you know, want to In my opinion, they're leaving minority
students economically disavantaged students in sailing schools and saying you're
stuck there. Too bad for you, this is the only
system you can choose, and studies actually show that's.

Speaker 6 (41:57):
What's going on.

Speaker 9 (41:58):
You know, when people like that get elect to office,
and so Amendment eighty gives people on the ground, like
Democrats on the street, who don't feel that way, who
want to make sure kids from those kind of families
are most vulnerable kids have the option to go to
a better and different school. That's what Amendment eighty would
cement and kind of push back on these politicians that
just aren't representing what people in their party actually think.

Speaker 5 (42:19):
Well, let me read this text message I just got
and people can text the Common Spirit Health text line
at five to sixty six. And I know if you
have questions for Christy Mandy, the commercials against ad have
said that it may take money away from public education.
I know my wife voted against it for that reason.
Can you go through that?

Speaker 2 (42:36):
Sure?

Speaker 6 (42:36):
And you know that is what the ads are saying.

Speaker 9 (42:39):
They're telling people this is going to put public school
funding at risk. The problem is that's a lie. And
the way you can know that if you're like I
don't know which campaign to believe, read the Colorado blue
Book that is put together by nonpartisan analysts that always
do a fiscal impact statement, which says basically, how much
is this.

Speaker 6 (42:54):
Measure going to cost us?

Speaker 9 (42:56):
Zero dollars. That's not from our campaign. That's a hunty
union that is from non parts and analysts who works
at the State of Colorado, and they say there is
no cost associated with this amendment. So I think people
need to get to get the facts for themselves, because again,
these ads on TV are being funded by the National
Teachers Union.

Speaker 6 (43:13):
That's straight up line to voters, and the union.

Speaker 9 (43:16):
At debates have debated them a couple times they acknowledge
at the debates, well, no, it's true, this isn't a voucher.
There is actually no funding, but maybe one day there
could be. So they actually acknowledge in person that the
suggestion this causes or sorry, cost money to voters is
a lie.

Speaker 5 (43:33):
Well, they have now done a really good job just
conflating school choice with vouchers, right, They've demonized vouchers. So
now the move is to tie those two things together
as if they are the same when they are not. Now,
I personally am pro voucher, but I think that's going
to be one of those things that you are going
to have to get a lot of buy in from

(43:53):
a lot of different people before you can even attempt
it in a state. It can't be done at the
district level. It's got to be down at the state level,
and it's going to require a lot of conversation and talking.
And you cannot inflict that on people and expect it
not to just end up in the courts for decades,
you know what I mean. It's like vouchers. I love

(44:14):
the idea, but the practicality of it, I have it
on the back burner. I just want to make sure
that parents can choose the best option for their kids.
That's all I want.

Speaker 9 (44:22):
Add this entire thing exactly Mandy and I think, and
that's what we're doing in Amendment eighty. You know, I
think if you're realistic about where we are in Colorado
right now, and where we are in Colorado right now
is a system that has been enjoyed and celebrated protected
on a biperson basis for decades, that you get to.

Speaker 6 (44:37):
Pick the best school for your kids.

Speaker 9 (44:39):
And in Colorado, if you want to put them in
private school or homeschool, then like my husband and I do, you've.

Speaker 6 (44:43):
Got to pay for that yourself.

Speaker 9 (44:45):
And then the eighty wouldn't change that. But what it
does say is the government can't interfere with those rights.
The government can't say, oh, sorry, we're going to close
down the charter school in your districts because we don't
like the enrollment numbers. That as a local school doesn't
matter the charter school succeeding close.

Speaker 6 (45:00):
It down right now.

Speaker 9 (45:00):
They can do that in Colorado, you know, they could
ban open enrollment if they want to, which is actually
used by a lot of families in Colorado to cross
district lines.

Speaker 6 (45:09):
Go to a better school for their kids.

Speaker 9 (45:11):
Then the legislature could ban that next session if they
want to. The only way to stop that is to
put those rights in the constitution, which is very simply
what Amnemin eighty does without impacting funding.

Speaker 5 (45:22):
A lot of textures asking a variation of this question,
Mandy I heard this would allow funding of private schools
by using tax money. Does it do that?

Speaker 9 (45:31):
Absolutely not, absolutely not, And that is what the union
is spending millions of dollars saying on TV to people,
And it is an absolute why.

Speaker 6 (45:39):
And again people can look at.

Speaker 9 (45:40):
The blue books take take nonpartisan analysts from the state's
word for it. I mean the state is no, the
current state is no fan of any conservative issue. If
this were going to cost money to public schools, they
would say so. They put fiscal impacts on every measure,
and they have said the fiscal impact is zero dollars.
You cannot get less fun than a zero dollar fiscal impact.

(46:02):
To know, this is not a voucher, it's not a
funding program, would not take money from public schools and
put them into private.

Speaker 5 (46:09):
This person said, Mandy. The concerns I'm reading from homeschoolers
is that the amendment says quality education. The concern is
who determines what is a quality education. They're afraid that
the government will decide exactly what that means. Can you
ask Christy if there's a possibility that the government can
decide how homeschoolers are taught?

Speaker 9 (46:28):
Great question, and I would say right now, the government
could meet in next legislative session and put any restriction
it wanted to on homeschooling families. It doesn't need anyone's
permission or a new law to do that. That puts
us you know, if you are a homeschooler, and I
am a homeschooler and a homeschool grad.

Speaker 6 (46:44):
Actually that puts us.

Speaker 9 (46:46):
In a very scary situation where it's the mercy of
politicians who can restrict us tomorrow if.

Speaker 6 (46:50):
They want to so. And then an ady, on the
other hand.

Speaker 9 (46:53):
Would actually put the right to homeschool your kids as
a school choice option in the Colorado Constitution.

Speaker 6 (46:58):
You cannot have.

Speaker 9 (46:59):
Greater protection from the winds of politicians than putting that
right in the Colorado Constitution. The quality language that some
homeschoolers are getting a little bit hung up on, which
I understand is actually in the purpose language, and it's
really really important that people understand the difference in purpose
language and operative language. Operative language is the law that's
good language that establishes the right to school choice in

(47:21):
our constitution.

Speaker 6 (47:21):
The purpose language basically answers, why are we doing this,
or we're doing this because every.

Speaker 9 (47:27):
Kid should have access to quality education. But that is
not part of the actual law here, and so no,
it does not give the government any extra permission to
mess with education standards in Colorado.

Speaker 5 (47:38):
I guess when I just heard you say that this
legislative session, the legislature could simply pass law banning homeschooling.
That never occurred to me until right now.

Speaker 6 (47:49):
I think the home schools.

Speaker 9 (47:49):
Which are missing that hugely, which you know, I'm a homeschooler,
so that that bothers me.

Speaker 6 (47:53):
They're completely ignoring that. I saw an email from them saying.

Speaker 9 (47:56):
Let's just be vigilant and defend the rights we currently
have at the legislature. The religius sature doesn't listen to homeschoolers.

Speaker 6 (48:02):
They don't care what we say.

Speaker 9 (48:04):
They could absolutely restrict and bhand whatever they want next session,
and the only way.

Speaker 6 (48:09):
To protect that is to put our right to homeschool
in the constitution.

Speaker 5 (48:12):
All right, we're talking about Amendment eighty with Christy Burton Brown,
also a candidate for the fourth District for the Board
of Education. This is a critically important amendment to do
exactly what Christy just said. This is going and let's
be clear, Christy, there's no and people don't often understand this.
We will pass let's see Amendment eighty passes. What we've

(48:32):
passed is essentially the skeleton framework of what this is
actually going to mean. And then they're going to pass laws,
and then there's going to be lawsuits, and then they're
going to put the meat on the bones of this amendment.
So if we're worried about things like quality education, there
are ways to address that going forward. As the meat
gets put on the bones of this entire situation.

Speaker 9 (48:50):
Sure, and you know it's not what people are worried about,
they can certainly involve themselves in any discussions later that
may happen. I do think that people do need to understand,
like this is a cot institutional right. Likes the freedom
to speech, like the freedom of religion that we have
in the US Constitution.

Speaker 6 (49:06):
Are there lawsuits that go on about those rights all
the time? Sure there are.

Speaker 9 (49:10):
You know, people sue over rights to make sure they're protected.
But that doesn't change the fact that we should have
those fundamental rights present in our constitution.

Speaker 6 (49:18):
So that we're putting the government on notice.

Speaker 9 (49:20):
You can no longer interfere with our right to school choice.
Here in Colorado. Every family gets to make the best
choice for their child. You can't block access.

Speaker 5 (49:29):
Christy Burton Brown is my guest, Christy Burton. I know
we're talking about the amendment. Well, why don't you give
your sales pitch of why people should vote for you
for the fourth Congressional District Board of Education seat.

Speaker 6 (49:39):
Oh thanks, Mandy.

Speaker 9 (49:41):
I am running to give parents a voice, to empower parents.
You should be able to pick any kind of school
that you want for your child, and I don't think
the state Board of Education should block.

Speaker 6 (49:50):
Your access to doing that.

Speaker 9 (49:52):
So that's one of the fights I'll engage with on
the state Board. I'll support charter schools and people's choice,
so that's the kind of voice we need. Also, I
have school age kids and no one who's going to
be on the board next year.

Speaker 5 (50:03):
Right now has.

Speaker 6 (50:04):
School age kids, and I think that's also an important
voice we need on the board.

Speaker 5 (50:08):
I agree, Christy, thank you so much for making time
for us today.

Speaker 6 (50:12):
Thank you, Mandy.

Speaker 5 (50:13):
All right, that is Christy Burton Brown. I would love
for you to vote yes on Amendment eighty, and I
would love for you to vote for KBB if she
is on your ballot for the Board of Education. We've
got to make sure that the Board of Education remains
with some sort of balance on it, because it is
incredibly it's an important board. I honestly don't know why
we have it, the State Board of Education perfectly, Frank,

(50:36):
I don't understand why we have it. If we're going
to do education at the local level, then do education at.

Speaker 7 (50:41):
The local level.

Speaker 5 (50:42):
Mandy, I'm sad that people have not realized yet that
you cannot believe everything you see in the television ads
and here on radio ads that from northern Colorado. Dan,
let me just say this about that. Guys, if I
sat on the radio and I said to you, if
you go buy an Max bed, you are going to
get laid more, you are going to sleep like the dead,

(51:03):
and you are going to have the best life you're
ever going to have. The Federal Trade Commission would come
down and they would find me, and it would be
ugly because I cannot back up any of those claims, right,
I mean, I don't know. Maybe you don't have any game,
Maybe you're never gonna get lady.

Speaker 7 (51:17):
I don't know.

Speaker 5 (51:17):
But when I do my commercials, and we have to
do training about this every single year about what we
can and cannot say in our commercials, we can't make
claims that we can't back up, right, And yet political
advertising is exempt from all of that, And I genuinely
don't understand that. If I were to be president, the

(51:38):
first thing I would do was tell the FTC to
pass a rule that says, if you are caught lying
in your campaign ads, you have to make a donation
equal to the buy that you made and the reach
of any viral social media posts you put out there
to the campaign of your opponent. That would stop it,

(51:58):
real quick, real real quick, because the level of absolute
lying that goes on in political ads is shameful. And
if I'm a candidate, I don't know, I would rather
lose than get out there and make up stuff about
my opponent. I'm just that's not Maybe that's why I'll

(52:20):
never be a politician, but it should not be. Okay,
we as the American voters should not accept this. We
should punish candidates who lie, but they work. That's why
they do it. Because like that nice man who sent
the text in and said, my wife heard a radio
commercial that said it was going to take money away
from education, so she voted. No, that nice lady got

(52:40):
lied to, and she casts a ballot based on a lie,
and that should not be allowed. Or they should just
let me lie about everything. I mean, come on, that'd
be awesome. Not really, I still wouldn't do it. Nick
Treano with Unit America is going to be at a
debate tonight at DU I believe I looked earlier and
there was still some tickets left. Nick Troyano's joining me now,

(53:05):
but I've got information about it on the blog today. Nick,
can we do a rapid speed round of question and
answer about Prop one thirty one?

Speaker 2 (53:14):
Happy to Mandy.

Speaker 5 (53:15):
First of all, tell my listeners briefly what it does.

Speaker 14 (53:19):
This makes two changes to our elections that will give
voters a lot more choice and power in their elections.
The first is in the primary instead of you're an
independent choosing between a Democratic or Republican primary, everybody gets
one ballot, and you can vote for the person, not
the party. You can vote for anyone of any party
for any office. And then the second change is that

(53:42):
the top four finishers go to the general election, where
you have the option of ranking them, not just choosing one,
and this ensures that whoever wins does so with majority
support through an instant runoff process. The combination of these
reforms mean that no longer will just five percent of
the electorate to determine the outcome of most races and

(54:03):
low turnout primaries. But our elections will be decided in
a November election when most voters cast their ballots, and
we'll get leaders who actually represent a majority of.

Speaker 5 (54:12):
Us because we have districts in Colorado, both Democrat and Republican,
that are considered so called safe districts, so they are
essentially decided in the primary. Correct.

Speaker 2 (54:22):
Yeah.

Speaker 14 (54:22):
The sad reality is I can go through the list
of all of our legislative seats and with one hundred
percent accuracy for eighty percent of them, tell you who
will win today, a week more than a week out
from when any votes will be tallied. That's because most
of these legislative seats are locked for one party or another,

(54:45):
and the low turnout primary determines those outcomes back in June.

Speaker 5 (54:49):
So in this system, if you did not want to
rank your candidates, say you've got candidate ABC and D
A is your candidate BC and D or communist, you
don't want to vote for the those people. If you
don't vote for two, three, and four, what happens to
your ballot? Does it still get counted?

Speaker 14 (55:07):
Your ballot absolutely gets counted. And in this scenario that
none of the four candidates get an outright majority of support,
it's the candidate with the least amount of votes that
get eliminated, and then you look to that candidate's second choice,
their supporters second choice vote and redistribute an until someone
emerges with a majority. So it's to your advantage to

(55:28):
rank more because if it goes into this runoff period
of time, your vote will still be in the running,
but you don't have to.

Speaker 5 (55:37):
So one of the things that I get asked about
a lot, and I'm just going to read this text
message that I just got, because this really encapsulates it
personally perfectly. One moment please, Manny, if one thirty one passes,
Colorado will be one party rule within five years. How
do you respond to that?

Speaker 14 (55:55):
It's actually the opposite. This is going to create more
healthy competition between both political parties and may even level
the playing field for candidates to compete from outside the
two major political parties. And that's because we have something
called the spoiler effect in our current system, where those
who want to vote for an independent or a third
party candidate fear that if they do, they'll take away

(56:17):
a vote from their second preferred candidate and wind up
helping to elect their least preferred Under this system, you
actually get to vote your values and your views and
express a fuller preference.

Speaker 2 (56:26):
Of your vote.

Speaker 5 (56:27):
That seems to be the biggest concern is that people
say in Denver, they always use Denver as an example.
In Denver, a Republican will never be on the ballot,
to which I respond, is there a chance of Republicans
going to get elected in Denver? Right now? So let's
be real. I mean, I'm not trying to be flippant,
but is there no? There isn't. What I see happening
here is this? If it works, Nick, and God, I

(56:50):
want this to work, okay, because I've really tossed this
around in my brain trying to look at all the
potential outcomes, all the potential positives, all the potential negatives.
I belie believe that if candidates get it, and if
candidates campaign in the right way, meaning they try to
cast a broad net, right, they try to campaign to everyone,

(57:12):
this could fundamentally change the way elections are in this country.
Is that the only reason, like, why did you guys
launch this in the first place. What are the underlying
motives here?

Speaker 14 (57:23):
Well, one motive is to give voters a ballot that
truly matters. You know, I've looked at my ballot today,
I got in the mail. I live in Denver. Most
of these races, virtually all of them have already been
decided in the Democratic primary. So this reform is really
about making sure that when you vote in November, you
have more choices on your ballot, and your ballot actually matters.

(57:43):
The second reason why we're proposing this reform is because
it changes the incentives of candidates and elected leaders to
your point, to incentivize them to reach out to a
broader coalition of voters to get elected, so that when
they're in office, they're actually trying to represent a true
majority of us, not just pandered to the five percent
of the base of their party that they need to

(58:04):
stay in the good graces with to stay in office.
So it's good for voters and it's good for governance,
and that's why we think this is a pro democracy,
nonpartisan reform.

Speaker 2 (58:14):
You can tell a.

Speaker 14 (58:14):
Lot by an idea, a boy who opposes it, and
both major parties oppose it, Ndor Bennett Lauren Bobert.

Speaker 2 (58:20):
What do they have in common?

Speaker 14 (58:21):
Not much. They want to protect their own power. This
is a pro voter, pro people reform.

Speaker 5 (58:26):
Why shouldn't the two parties continue to decide how we
do our primaries?

Speaker 2 (58:32):
Well, we have.

Speaker 14 (58:33):
To disentangle the role that parties play from the role
that our elections should play. Right now, to use the
sort of sports analogy, we have two teams that are
also deciding the rules of the league and are trying
to be the umpires and enforcing those rules. We have
to separate this out so that the parties are participating
in our democracy, but they don't control our elections. Our

(58:54):
elections belong to voters, and under this system, a government
run toaxpayer funded process. This will give voters a lot
more choice and power in their elections. Parties, by the way,
can still continue their core function. They can recruit, support
and endorse candidates.

Speaker 9 (59:12):
As they do today.

Speaker 5 (59:14):
The last question I have, and then we'll talk about
tonight's event real quick. How could rank choice voting be
manipulated by someone? And this is a common theory that
I hear from listeners that they're worried somebody is going
to run as a conservative and then take away a
bunch of votes from an actual conservative. How do you
see or how could this be manipulated? Have you guys

(59:35):
thought about any of that.

Speaker 14 (59:38):
There's no perfect system, but ranked choice voting in general
elections will reduce a lot of the gamesmanship that we
see today. Republicans sometimes run and support Green Party candidates,
and Democrats do the same with libertarians to peel off
some votes and advantage themselves in the general election. That
won't be possible or much less likely under this current system,

(59:58):
because voters can still rank.

Speaker 6 (01:00:00):
A second preference.

Speaker 14 (01:00:01):
Likewise, there's been plenty of stories about how Democrats have
spent millions of dollars within Republican primaries to support the
most extreme Republican advantage themselves in general elections, That too,
is greatly mitigated under this new system, because four candidates
will get to the general election. So again, no perfect system,
but this proposal actually reduces a lot of the gamesmanship

(01:00:23):
that we see today.

Speaker 5 (01:00:24):
All right, Nick Freano with United America on the show.
Right now, I lied, I have one work because this
text just came in. Another common thing not true. Once
your candidate is eliminated, if you haven't ranked either candidates
on your ballot, your ballot is exhausted and your vote
is not counted towards the final vote tabulation. Is that accurate?

Speaker 2 (01:00:45):
That is, and that's what.

Speaker 14 (01:00:46):
I did say earlier, which is why we encourage people
to fill out their full ballot.

Speaker 2 (01:00:51):
But you have to.

Speaker 14 (01:00:51):
Compare it again to the current system. If you vote
for saying independent, our a third party candidate, you don't
have the ability to put a second choice if that
candidate doesn't win and your current vote is exhausted. So
relative to the current system, this allows people to have
a much fuller and much more powerful say and who

(01:01:12):
represents them.

Speaker 5 (01:01:13):
Let me make sure that I am clear on this.
So your first initial vote doesn't count towards the tabulation.
If you don't rank the other candidates, No, No, your first.

Speaker 14 (01:01:21):
Choice absolutely does, so your vote counts.

Speaker 7 (01:01:24):
You just don't.

Speaker 5 (01:01:25):
You don't weigh in on anything else. If you choose
not to correct.

Speaker 14 (01:01:29):
If that race goes to a runoff, and if you
choose not to rank any of the candidates that are
in that runoff, then of course your other preferences don't count.

Speaker 2 (01:01:38):
It's almost like.

Speaker 14 (01:01:38):
You're voting here in Denver in the mayor's race, and
the race goes to runoff. If you don't show up
the second time, your vote doesn't count. So we would
encourage you to do that. Under this system. The only
difference is instead of asking you to come back to
the polls again, we allow you to rank your backup
preferences at that time.

Speaker 5 (01:01:56):
Nick Treono is my guest. Nick, we're almost out a time.
Let's talk about what's happening tonight to you.

Speaker 14 (01:02:01):
Yeah, So we're squaring off against some opponents of Prop
thirty one.

Speaker 2 (01:02:05):
We're looking forward to a good.

Speaker 14 (01:02:07):
Conversation and debate about this topic. And I think the
biggest difference between proponents and opponents of the system is
how much we trust voters. Do we trust them with
more power in our system. Do we trust them that
they are capable of ranking candidates one, two, three on
their ballot? Proponents say yes, and that this is going
to be good for voters and good for the state

(01:02:27):
of Colorado.

Speaker 1 (01:02:29):
Uh.

Speaker 5 (01:02:29):
Nick Treilano, I appreciate what you guys are doing. I
am a solid yes on Prop One thirty one, and
I'm trying to encourage others to do the same. What
we've got now. For the person who said we'll have
one party rule in five years, yeah, look around. That's
what we have now in Colorado, and the incompetence of
the Republican Party is not going to change that anytime soon. Nick,
I hope the debate goes well tonight, and hopefully we'll

(01:02:50):
talk after this passes about what it's going to look like.
Since the Democratic and Republican legislature decided to ban this
before the voters even had a chance to vote on it,
we'll talk about that later. That's NICKTORYJ. Howe with Unit America.
We got that going for us. We'll be right back. Lately,
a couple of things have been happening to be on

(01:03:10):
the roadways. A rod my efforts and yours to bring
back the wave. Courtesy wave seems to be catching on.
I've got a lot of Yes, I've got a lot
of courtesy waves. As of late, I'm giving the courtesy
wave every chance I get.

Speaker 8 (01:03:23):
Thanks guy, Yeah, I have to hit you with the
polar opposite.

Speaker 7 (01:03:28):
I have had no one giving me nobody, nil, no one.

Speaker 5 (01:03:32):
That's awful.

Speaker 8 (01:03:33):
And you know what I'm doing now, not let this
cast a wave. Oh you're welcome, Yeah you will.

Speaker 5 (01:03:40):
Yeah, I f als okay, I think that's okay to
give give the wave, teach them what they don't know.

Speaker 7 (01:03:45):
That's the way You're I'm gonna do it more and
more obvious, got it?

Speaker 5 (01:03:48):
Yeah? Okay, Hey, I have a nice.

Speaker 8 (01:03:50):
Your dumb ant wave or excuse me, dumb and don't wave.
You're getting honked at too, stop it. But I'm not
just the waving thing. It's to be doing something dumb
and not waving.

Speaker 5 (01:04:03):
Okay, well, then that's it perfectly acceptable. Yes, the both
of those things. Now, I haven't jerked. I have a
story on the blog today though, about a man who
just got sentenced to ten years in prison for road
rage assault. And they have the video of this. This
guy's in a truck, and he said he just made
an error and he accidentally went into the lane with

(01:04:24):
a motorcyclist. But you watch this video and it is
undeniable that he ran into a guy on a motorcycle.
The guy survived luckily, but dang, it's scary to watch.
But he got ten years in prison. Now, if i'm
se Dot, you know what I put on those signs
on the road You know, the big signs overhead. I
put Albert Moda is spending ten years in jail for

(01:04:45):
road rage on every sign for like a couple of weeks.
And then every time someone gets convicted of doing something
like that on the roadways, you put their name Albert
Moda going to jail for ten years for road rage.
Don't be like Albert. I think that it's a really
compelling way to go after road rage because now we
have these signs now like slow down, you're not in

(01:05:06):
a hurry or whatever. They're all nice and everything. It's fine,
but the people that need it the most are gonna
ignore all the nice signs. Why don't you show them
the consequences of their action. The other day, I was
driving down twenty five and a kid goes flying past
me auto motorcycle lane splitting and this is my least
favorite thing, and it's happening more and more often. And

(01:05:27):
a guy in a car about five cars up on
my right, so I'm going the left lane, he's in
the right lane. Did one of those like jog the
wheel because we're going about We're going like ten miles
an hour. You know, we're not going very fast on
twenty five And I almost had a heart attack because
I thought I was gonna watch this kid die because
he jerked over. It was I mean, don't get me wrong,

(01:05:47):
I hate the lane splitting thing. Horrible. It's not legal
in the state of Colorado. Lane filtering is not lane splitting.
And if you are lane splitting, you are probably gonna
die because of that guy. The other guy. And this
is an other thing like motorcycles. This is what scares
me about riding a motorcycle, not the motorcyclist, the dumbass
in the truck. Now, the most interesting thing about this

(01:06:08):
and why I'm actually bringing this story up, I'm thinking
about getting a dash cam because it was dash cam
video from someone else's camera that that caught this guy,
that caught him in the act lying about what he did.

Speaker 8 (01:06:23):
I keep needing, keep thinking about the need to get
a dash can.

Speaker 5 (01:06:29):
I'm surprised at how many people have them. First of all,
they're super cheap. Now they're like nothing now to have
a dash cam. But I've talked to multiple people and
they all have kind of different reasons for having a
dash cam. One of them is, look, I I drive
at night a lot. He had already hit a deer.
He's like, I want evidence that I hit a deer
and not another car.

Speaker 7 (01:06:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:06:49):
I'm like, well, the dead deer would probably be evidence
for that, but do what you got to do.

Speaker 7 (01:06:54):
I wouldache.

Speaker 5 (01:06:59):
An accident and it was there was multi cars and
and just really got the shaft. I not go my way,
and it would have if you had a dash dash can. Yep,
let's put it like that right there. Kind of makes
me want to get one.

Speaker 4 (01:07:12):
Now.

Speaker 5 (01:07:12):
Maybe I'll ask for one for Christmas. Get one, get
each other one. Oh that's a good idea. No, I
like that. I like it a lot. Then I don't
have to think at all about your Christmas present.

Speaker 7 (01:07:22):
I don't know how much are they.

Speaker 5 (01:07:24):
I don't know. I'll look on this break one more thing.
I got a new windshield yesterday. It was I got it.
I drove today and at one point I was facing
the sun and I could see through my windshield. My
old windshield was so pitted, you know, and had all
the little chips and stuff in it. I did not
realize how bad it was, y'all. I've probably been a

(01:07:44):
minute to society. I couldn't see a damn thing through
that windshield.

Speaker 7 (01:07:47):
No, probably about it.

Speaker 5 (01:07:49):
All good now, All good now, we'll be right back.

Speaker 1 (01:07:53):
The Mandy Connell Show is sponsored by Belle and Pollock
Accident and Injury Lawyers.

Speaker 2 (01:07:58):
No, it's Mandy Connell, Mandy Conall, kla.

Speaker 16 (01:08:06):
AM, ninety FM, got wait static and the ninety's two
three Mandyconnell keeping really sad thing.

Speaker 2 (01:08:20):
The two minute drill at two.

Speaker 7 (01:08:22):
Hey, we're gonna go to two minute morning.

Speaker 2 (01:08:24):
Wrapping fire stories of the day that we don't have
more time.

Speaker 6 (01:08:27):
For play lock type. Let's call this.

Speaker 2 (01:08:30):
It'll take longer than two minutes.

Speaker 7 (01:08:32):
Try up.

Speaker 2 (01:08:33):
Here's Mandy Connall.

Speaker 17 (01:08:35):
All right, my.

Speaker 5 (01:08:35):
Friends, mooting centers and drop boxes are open, and they
open last Monday, and thousands of people have already turned
in their ballots. In compared to twenty twenty, we are
dramatically lower. Only six hundred and thirty seven five hundred
ninety seven ballots have been cast in Colorado as of Wednesday.
In twenty twenty, a little over one point two six

(01:08:57):
million had been returned out, double the number now. Right now,
Democrats hold the lead for dropping off their ballots, and
I'm urging everyone turn your ballots in. It makes to
get out the vote operations so much easier, and Republicans
need to get their voices heard early. To drill it too,

(01:09:18):
Mike Rosen did an excellent column about the Democrat big
lie on taxation and got some responses about how much
the top fifty percent of income earners make as a
portion of the income in the country. So he decided
to take on that lie and breaks it down to
show you exactly what's not counted in those statistics. If

(01:09:39):
you want to know more about basic economics and how
to push back on these numbers, this call is a
must read. As always with Microsen, drill it too.

Speaker 11 (01:09:50):
This is a.

Speaker 5 (01:09:50):
Very interesting study. Now we all know that sleep is important,
but it is really important for your brain. People with
poor quality sleep have more signs of poor brain health
in late middle age, and this study studied five hundred
and eighty nine participants. Those who reported two or three
poor sleep characteristics had an average brain age that was

(01:10:10):
one point six years older than those with no more
than one poor sleep characteristic, and those with more than
three poor sleep characteristics had an average brain of two
point six years older. It's kind of scary because they
can actually show that if you don't sleep well, your
brain already starts to shrink. Now here's the interesting question.

(01:10:31):
Does your brain shrink because you're not sleeping well or
are you not sleeping well because your brain is shrinking. Hmmm,
we'll have to have another study on that.

Speaker 2 (01:10:43):
Drill it too.

Speaker 5 (01:10:44):
I love, love, love this story on Fox thirty one
because I've only been here to ten years, so whenever
my friends come to visit, we stand and look at
this beautiful view of the Front Range, and inevitably one
of them says, what is that mountain called? And if
it's not Pike's Peak, I got no idea. So I'm
thrilled with the story from Fox thirty one. This shows
you the entire Front Range with all of the names

(01:11:08):
of the mountains. So if you're new, or maybe you're
not new, but you want to know a little bit
more about our beautiful view. Go click on that link
and check it out for yourself. I'm going to print
it out and memorize them all just to say I
did go to drill it too. Really interesting story about
male athletes who compete as women. The United Nations did

(01:11:28):
a study and the findings were compiled by the UN's
Rappertoire on Violence against Women. This report was titled Violence
against Women and Girls in Sports. It found that nearly
nine hundred biological females have fallen short of the podium
because they were beaten out by a man competing as
a woman. The report said that more than six hundred

(01:11:49):
athletes did not meddle in more than four hundred competitions
in twenty nine different sports, totaling over eight hundred and
ninety medals that according to information obtained to March thirtieth.
The report says the replacement of the female sports category
with a mixed sext category has resulted in an increasing
number of female athletes losing opportunities, including medals, when competing

(01:12:15):
against males. It's not just about medals right now. There
are athletes who have college scholarships because they are men.
Who say they are women and they have decided to
compete as women. This is not fair. It's got to
be stopped. I feel like the tide is shifting, and
this is not an anti transtance. This is a pro

(01:12:35):
woman stance. And what I find super frustrating about this
entire argument is that the same people who for years
said we had to believe all women, believe all women,
believe all women, Well, they don't want to believe the
women who say I don't want to get dressed next
to a man in my locker room. I don't want
to deal with a man in my children's locker room.
I'd like to be able to compete against people who

(01:12:56):
have the same bodily makeup that I have without having
a worry about competing against someone who is naturally far
stronger than I am. Thank you, thank you, thank you
for the un We'll see if this actually does anything.
As of late, we've got a trans golfer teeing up
at the second stage of qualifying for the LPGA Tour card,

(01:13:17):
although a group of two hundred and seventy five female
golfers have signed up to say not, uh, no way.
Women are finally starting to fight back, and it's about time.

Speaker 11 (01:13:28):
It too.

Speaker 5 (01:13:29):
And last story of the day. If you love those
cheesy little goldfish crackers, but you're classy now because you're
a little bit older. Never fear. Goldfish has been rebranded.
They will officially be named Chilean sea bass from now
on in order to bring in a bougie or crowd
fun fact a rod. Did you know that Chilean sea

(01:13:50):
bass is actually just a marketing name given to the
Patagonian mantooth fish because nobody wants to buy the patagony
and mantooth fish, but everybody wants to buy Chilean sea bass.

Speaker 7 (01:14:00):
Well, this is temporary, right, I believe it's just marketing.

Speaker 5 (01:14:02):
It's a marketing gimmick. Yes, and I actually love this.
I love little things like this where companies try to
do something creative to get a little free pub Well done, goldfish.
What was the last time you ate a goldfish or
talked about goldfish? I love goldfish on chili? Do you
know what people put like cheese and crackers in chili? No,
I just cut to the chase. I put cheese crackers

(01:14:24):
in there in the form of goldfish.

Speaker 7 (01:14:25):
Can't say I've done it, but I'm intrigued. It's delicious,
like the normal flavor.

Speaker 5 (01:14:30):
I do the jlipino chaddar, but they're not very spicy
or the regular either, or you could do either, or
they're deltion intreg Yeah, I do that. Some candy kilipinos
and a dollup of sour cream. In my show, it
was so good, so good. Well, the gross dollop of
sour cream takes away the sting of the candy kilipinos
because the last.

Speaker 6 (01:14:49):
Batch of kellie oh no, no, the last.

Speaker 5 (01:14:52):
Batch of candy jlipinos. I like spicy food, but candy
calipino should be sweet and spicy. Right, These almost my
face off, the last batch.

Speaker 7 (01:15:01):
Of alipinos that I made.

Speaker 5 (01:15:03):
I'll bring you some next time. Next time I make
a big batch of well they normally they are because
the sugar kind of you know, takes away the heat.
But this last batch, I don't know what happened. Burn
my face off with that. They were hot halipinos. Somebody
told me once how to pick the hot jilipinos versus

(01:15:24):
the not so hot jlipinos, and I'll be darned if
I can remember what that was. I mean, I cannot
remember what.

Speaker 7 (01:15:30):
The tip was give me the hot ones.

Speaker 6 (01:15:32):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (01:15:33):
I usually try to do a mix right, so you
get like a hot one, then you get a mild
when it kind of balances everything out. I'd love to
know what that tip is. If you know how to
choose those, please let me know, cause it's been kind
of driving me crazy for a while. Now, when we
get back, I have an incredibly important question to ask,
and I mean it. You can go ahead and start
texting us your answer five six six nine. Oh, And

(01:15:56):
I'm just gonna ask it the easiest way possible. What
is the worst Halloween candy? And why is it circus
peanuts or candy corn? Go ahead text me five six
six nine.

Speaker 7 (01:16:09):
Oh.

Speaker 8 (01:16:10):
There you go.

Speaker 5 (01:16:12):
Mandy, you should one day interview Sam Ponder formally at
ESPN just lost her job for defending women's only sports.
She'd be another great interview. Yes, she was Mandy Goldfish
on Chili. I'm gonna marry a woman like you. Chuck
thinks it's weird. It kind of gives me crap about it.

Speaker 7 (01:16:27):
I haven't even had it yet, and I'm intrigued.

Speaker 5 (01:16:28):
I'm telling you it's delish, and they're prepped. They're like
bite size. You don't even have to bust them up
like you do, like a normal crap.

Speaker 7 (01:16:34):
I would probably bust them.

Speaker 5 (01:16:36):
No, you don't need to. They're small, they're little, they're
itty bitty. I know they're made for tiny hands. No,
you don't even have to do that. Don't even have
to do it. Anyway, We're gonna take a quick time out.
What is the worst Halloween candy? Why is it candy
corn or Circus peanuts? We will be back right after this.
We have some common ground on the text line. We asked,

(01:16:59):
what is the worst candy ever? And why is it?
Circus peanuts and candy corn?

Speaker 7 (01:17:04):
Nope?

Speaker 5 (01:17:04):
And you guys came through a lot of people Circus
Peanuts hands down.

Speaker 7 (01:17:09):
But I forgot.

Speaker 5 (01:17:10):
I forgot about this and this texture reminded me. Worst candy,
those peanut buttered taffy choes wrapped in black and orange
wax paper.

Speaker 7 (01:17:19):
Black. Still not worse than the worst one?

Speaker 5 (01:17:21):
What is the worst one?

Speaker 2 (01:17:22):
Liquer?

Speaker 17 (01:17:24):
Black?

Speaker 7 (01:17:24):
Licorice will represent me? Licorice any well? The cherry liquors like, nope, nope?

Speaker 5 (01:17:30):
What are the vines?

Speaker 6 (01:17:31):
Those are?

Speaker 15 (01:17:32):
You know?

Speaker 7 (01:17:32):
Licorice red vines?

Speaker 2 (01:17:34):
Whatever?

Speaker 7 (01:17:34):
They are all gross? The worst.

Speaker 5 (01:17:37):
A lot of texts like this candy corn was made
by someone who neither had candy nor corn. Do you
know where they're called candy corn?

Speaker 7 (01:17:44):
They look like corn when you.

Speaker 5 (01:17:45):
Stack them on their sides. You can make a corn
cob out of candy corn.

Speaker 7 (01:17:49):
Yeah, because they look like a little corn.

Speaker 11 (01:17:50):
Yeah.

Speaker 8 (01:17:51):
I like them.

Speaker 7 (01:17:51):
They're okay, not great.

Speaker 6 (01:17:52):
I don't like them. Uh.

Speaker 5 (01:17:54):
Mandy anxiously awaiting the method of understanding which jalapenos are
hot and which are mild. My friend Cindy, who is
the person who told me, She texted me the round
bottoms when you look, they got the stem side and
then they got the bottom side. The rounder bottoms are
more mild. The pointier bottoms are more height. Oh no,
we're trying this tomorrow on the show. Are you gonna
be here tomorrow?

Speaker 9 (01:18:14):
No?

Speaker 5 (01:18:14):
Okay, within Monday on the show, I'm bringing in halipenios.
So I committed to making a cake for Ross. Uh
in there, No, no, no, no, no, it's it's a
honey cake. It's called a beasting cake.

Speaker 11 (01:18:26):
And I saw it.

Speaker 5 (01:18:26):
You know, Ross was making honey now and I was like, hey,
you bring me some money on again. Yeah, he has bees,
And I said, you make me. You bring me some money,
I'll make you this beasting cake. I looked to the
recipe last night. Oh my god, it's like a project.
Not a lot of honey, like maybe a little over
half a cup of honey. But it's like a like
a twenty five step cake situation. I might have bitten

(01:18:47):
off more than I.

Speaker 7 (01:18:48):
Could chew on the candy.

Speaker 8 (01:18:50):
We need to see if the textures are as crazy
or if split Gina Colorado.

Speaker 7 (01:18:55):
Morning News, Yeah five to nine here on KOA hates
Totsie rolls.

Speaker 5 (01:19:02):
I could see it because really, tootsy rolls are like
the h No, they're like the you Who of chocolate. Though,
like you Who is a chocolate favorite flavored beverage, right,
it's not real chocolate milk, it's watery chocolate. It's gross,
but it is in the chocolate category. Tootsi rolls are
basically chocolate and wax put together, so they're in the

(01:19:23):
chocolate category. But they are so far down in the
chocolate category. I mean, I'll eat them. I like it
as I go to when was the last time you
was like, dang, I gotta have a Tutsi roll? When
did I see him? I'll have that yeah, no, never
my choice. A lot of you weighing in black licorice
is the worst candy. Corn is the worst Halloween candy
because it tastes gross and you can easily chip a tooth.

(01:19:44):
What this is an accurate statement. The worst Halloween candy
is anything fund sized. Whoever fun sized candy has no
idea what.

Speaker 7 (01:19:52):
Fun is fun size? Smaller bit yeah, small, like the little.

Speaker 5 (01:19:56):
And now they used to be like like you know,
cup inches when I was a kid, like the fun size.
Now they're they're like a tiny square.

Speaker 7 (01:20:04):
I'm not against it.

Speaker 8 (01:20:05):
When you want to dabble, but don't want to have
a big, full size fun size, but it's.

Speaker 5 (01:20:09):
So unsatisfying you end up having five fun size, which
is less than a regular candy bar.

Speaker 7 (01:20:14):
No, you limit yourself to one, maybe two.

Speaker 5 (01:20:16):
I don't really eat that kind of candy anymore. I'm
too fancy for that now. Necho wafer candy correct. Necho
wafers are like those disks of dust, like somebody was like, hey,
I know, let's take some chalk and put some coloring
and just the hint. They're basically the siltzer water of candy,
right Like, they don't taste like anything. They taste like
somebody farted that smell near the candy and that's why

(01:20:39):
it tastes that way. They are terrible and they suck
all the moisture out of your mouth. A lot of
you circus peanuts man, Yeah, yeah, Mandy, give me three
milk duds in a box of gold ten. That's not funniest.

Speaker 8 (01:20:53):
One was dangerously close to some blasphemy against Marzapan, which
those little Marzapan candies are delicious.

Speaker 5 (01:20:59):
Which mars a pan oh I don't know. I've never
had that is just almond paste.

Speaker 7 (01:21:07):
For me.

Speaker 5 (01:21:07):
That's one of those things that's not worth the calories. Ever,
they're beautiful. They're beautiful to look out, like the pretty
mars and pans that look like, you know, fruit and
stuff like that. They're really really pretty, but not worth
eating for me. Mounds an almond joy Bay.

Speaker 7 (01:21:20):
Get out, Get Out, one of my favorites.

Speaker 5 (01:21:23):
I have your back.

Speaker 7 (01:21:24):
No are you're wrong, Almond Joys are divine, You're wrong.
Get out.

Speaker 5 (01:21:28):
This texture says make the makes the cake for ross
in the shape of a hairy leg. It has to
be a hairy, dirty leg and.

Speaker 7 (01:21:36):
Then you have to wash the cake before you're allowed
to eat the cake somehow.

Speaker 5 (01:21:40):
No, he doesn't wash his cake. Mandy. I don't eat
Halloween candy anymore, but I do indulge in Chilean sea bass.

Speaker 7 (01:21:47):
I do too.

Speaker 5 (01:21:48):
Texture, I do too, Mandy. I love candy corn and
the Harvest mix. It has little pumpkins. Don't like sweet tarts?
What sweet tarts are like that candy that everybody likes?

Speaker 13 (01:21:57):
Right?

Speaker 5 (01:21:58):
Does anybody not like SweeTarts?

Speaker 7 (01:21:59):
Except this?

Speaker 5 (01:22:00):
Go to I'm nice sweethearts? The chewy sweethearts were my
favorite when I.

Speaker 7 (01:22:04):
Was a kid.

Speaker 5 (01:22:05):
Jalapinio heat can be measured by the stretch marks on
the pepper. A nice smooth skin is less hot. There
you go.

Speaker 7 (01:22:12):
That seems to be accurate.

Speaker 5 (01:22:13):
Yes, yep, yep, Okay, we're gonna take a quick time out.
When we get back, we're going to talk to Aura
City Councilwoman Danielle Drinsky. She is releasing receipts to back
up pretty much everything she said was going on in
Aurora this whole time. We'll talk to her next. Working
to get Danielle Drinsky on the show. If you don't
follow her on x dot com, you may have missed

(01:22:36):
the last few days. As she started to put out
some of the supporting documents that everyone keeps saying, well,
if you have some documentation, you should probably release it.
She is now releasing it on her Twitter page, and
some of it is is quite interesting. Did I I am?
I am, I am just clicking on the wrong things

(01:22:59):
randomly ignore me while I get to the right thing.

Speaker 13 (01:23:02):
Here.

Speaker 5 (01:23:03):
She's got a documentation in the form of emails within
the Aurora Police Department, and they say things like, hey, yeah,
we know. Let me just let me just read read
some of these emails to you. They were sent by
a sergeant in the Major Crimes Homicide Unit and one

(01:23:25):
of them, let me get to the other page here.
One of them says that I'm just gonna I'm gonna
read it to you so you can understand what is
going on. So one sergeant in the Major Crimes Homicide
Unit said, I'm advising that officers don't respond to these

(01:23:48):
locations without an armored vehicle, talking about the apartment complexes
that were taken over by Trende Aragua, the Venezuelan gang
that walked across the southern border from Venezuela under the
Biden hair policy positions that left the border open the
cop continues that narrative is clearly debunked after this murder.

(01:24:08):
I would be happy to go over this case with
anyone that still denies that this is a major problem.
I am being told that different people have different CIS
into this organization, but cis of course confidential informants. But
I don't know who those people are. I don't know
if the information being provided by the CIS is getting
disseminated amongst the involved units. As far as I can tell,

(01:24:31):
there is an HSI FBI Task Force raven Grit. These
are various departments by the way, they're gun violence, their
gang violence, and so they say, an HSI FBI Task
Force raven Grit GVST the gang unit, and a three
detective APD Venezuela task Force, all doing lots or little
with this issue, and nobody seems to be able to

(01:24:53):
work with each other. My only interest in these politics
is whether it assists or hinders my detectives investigat and
the future investigations that are sure to come. This particular
email thread was sent in.

Speaker 11 (01:25:08):
Di Di Di.

Speaker 5 (01:25:11):
Looking for the June thirtieth of twenty twenty four. June thirtieth,
well before daniel Dorensky started sounding the alarm well before.
She also linked to a Daily Mail story. Daily Mail
has video. This is some of the video that Danielle
Dorensky was talking about when she asked the governor to

(01:25:33):
call her. And it is video of an encounter with
police in Aurora. And there was a woman who had
just given birth telling police officers she's a Guatemalan migrant.
She was a resident of Whispering Pine's apartments, one of
three Aurora properties that were taken over by Trende Aragua.

(01:25:54):
Now for what I can tell about this video. This
video is timestamped in in twenty twenty three, and this
woman tells the police that the gang members came to
her apartment while she was pregnant and through boiling water
on her and her husband while extorting them for money.
She said, they kicked the door in, they tried to

(01:26:16):
find a way, they came in and threw hot water
on us. The victim explained that Venezuelan criminals first came
to them months ago, demanding they abandoned their apartments so
TDA could take it over. So all of this stuff
happened well before Danielle Dreinsky sounded the alarm well before,

(01:26:37):
and we're waiting for her to call. I don't know,
I just saw I sent her a text. I have
no idea where she is, what she's doing. But you
have to remember, and I know she was on with
Ross earlier and people were texting Ross saying, you know,
why doesn't she work the back channels? Why is she
making this public? She has tried over again. Her comments

(01:27:01):
in the Aurora City Council asking the governor to call
her accomplished one thing from the governor's office. He called
the police to say if she had evidence of a crime,
she should give it to the Aurora Police Department. Well,
we know now from seeing this video the Aurora Police
Department absolutely has this information because it's their police officers
on this videotape taking a report from this woman. This

(01:27:26):
is just so incredibly infuriating, so incredibly infuriating, and honestly,
if I'm Daniel Jurinsky, I'm like, where's my apology Governor
Poulis who said that these gangs were a figment of
her imagination? Where's the apology from Kyle Clark, who, once again,
once again anything a conservative woman has to say, obviously

(01:27:50):
is coming from a crazy person. By the way, I've
been having a back and forth on Twitter from what
I believe to be the people from CBC management. I
have no reason to think it's not them. We'll find
out on Monday. We have a call scheduled. They told
me they talked to Kyle Clark for a half hour
about what they had been through with the City of
Aurora not helping them when they asked for it, and

(01:28:10):
Kyle basically blew it off because it doesn't go with
his narrative. Right, he can't make a conservative woman look
stupid if he presents the fact says they actually might be.
So I don't know what else Danielle has. Hopefully we'll
talk to her by the end of the show, but
if you follow her on X, you should. If you
don't follow her on X, you should, so go ahead
and check that out now if you missed. Earlier in

(01:28:33):
the show, we talked about Kamala Harris, a CNN event
which was an absolute disaster. I mean an absolute disaster.
But I want to talk about something that is so frustrating.
I touched on it yesterday, but I read the whole
article yesterday afternoon, and it has to do with what

(01:28:55):
we're doing to kids. And one of the biggest differences
between the Republican Party and the Democratic Party is their
stance on children, whether or not to have them, you know,
whether or not to eliminate their lives before they even
have a chance to be born, and what happens to
them when they get you know, when they are actually

(01:29:18):
a child.

Speaker 11 (01:29:20):
And one of the.

Speaker 5 (01:29:21):
Biggest issues I think is the left's dogged determination to
keep using medical interventions on children who are struggling with
gender dysphoria. They are so wedded to that they are,
so that is who they are. They want to mutilate
little children who decide that they are right now a

(01:29:41):
boy now on the blog today, I have a very
interesting Twitter thread and in twenty seventeen, and I'm not
going to read the whole Twitter thread, but I'm gonna
give you a general feeling for what it is. In
twenty seventeen, nine year old Avery Jackson became the poster
child for trans kids after being featured on the cover
of National Geographic. Avery is now seventeen years old. After

(01:30:05):
Avery was on the cover of National Geographic as a
little boy who decided very early that he was a
little girl, and his mom jumped right in and started
affirming him as a girl, decided to raise him as
a girl. They participated in a documentary called trans Hood
along with his family and three other transgender children. During

(01:30:29):
the filming of that movie, Avery told his mom that
he did not want to continue his life of transactivism
and his book tour, saying it had ruined his life,
and his mom was shocked and then continued to dismiss
those concerns. Now, by the time Avery was fifteen fourteen,

(01:30:50):
fifteen years old, he had already been on a regimen
of puberty blockers and cross sex hormones that had sterilized
him for the rest of his life. When he decided
that he was not a girl, he's just non binary. Well,
he has no choice to be non binary now he
doesn't have You know, he's been sterilized by a medical

(01:31:14):
community who continues to do this. And I know they
continue to do it because, as I said yesterday, Joanna
Olsen Kennedy is part of a group of doctors that
believe strongly in medically affirming children who say they are trance.
And in twenty fifteen, she did a massive study that
was supposed to show that puberty blockers helped with mental health,

(01:31:36):
only they've never released the study because guess what, it
showed nothing of the sort. And yet she defends not
releasing the study that shows that puberty blockers don't improve
mental health because she doesn't want to be politicized by
people that don't want her to mutilate children, and they
would use the information that shows mutilating children doesn't help

(01:32:00):
against her. It's terrible, It's absolutely terrible. All right, we
finally have Danielle Drensky. Good more, Good afternoon, Danielle. How
are you try me?

Speaker 9 (01:32:09):
Andy?

Speaker 6 (01:32:10):
I am so sorry. I'm running late.

Speaker 5 (01:32:12):
That's okay. You're busy right now outing everybody posting documents,
bring in the receipts about what's been happening in Aurora.
And I was just telling my listeners some of the
stuff that you've posted over the last couple of days.
And I want to start with this, Why do you
feel like you have to go to social media to
get this out?

Speaker 6 (01:32:32):
Because I still cannot get the city itself, anyone at
the state level, a lot of local media to tell
the truth. And you know, these emails tell the truth,

(01:32:53):
the videos tell the truth. You know, the woman saying
that when she was nine months pregnant. You know, we're
struggling to pay the gang rent. They threw boiling water
on her. You know, the truth has to come out
because no help is coming to rid our city in

(01:33:15):
quite frankly, the state of this gang of Trendia Ragua
until anyone first admits that there's an actual problem.

Speaker 5 (01:33:24):
Exactly exactly right now. Let me ask you this. You
at a city council meeting asked the governor to call you.
What happened?

Speaker 6 (01:33:34):
He turned around the very next morning and he called
the police on me.

Speaker 5 (01:33:38):
Did did the police actually come to you after the
governor made that call? Because the SNATI statement from the
SNATTI spokesperson was like, you know what if the city
council and then has evidence of a crime, she should
turn it over to police. But police already had all
this information, did they not?

Speaker 6 (01:33:54):
Well, yeah, you saw in the video the police officers
in the video.

Speaker 5 (01:33:57):
Why do you think the Aurora PD has been gas
lighting on this issue? Because that's the only word I
can think of. They've been gaslighting on this issue. What
is happening at the Aurora PD? And do you think
the new chief can get this stuff strained out.

Speaker 11 (01:34:13):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (01:34:13):
You know, you look at the dates of some of
these emails and it goes back to when interim Chief
art Os of Veto was here. So I don't know,
I don't know what the narrative was at that time
or what the plan was at that time. That that
obviously carried over to interim police Chief Heather Morris. They

(01:34:34):
kept up the same song and dance. You will see
that many of the current division chiefs are.

Speaker 18 (01:34:43):
Included involved sending some of these emails, and the new
permanent chief had kept every single person in the chief
office in the same position, so obviously.

Speaker 6 (01:34:59):
He's he's listening to them. So nick narrative has now
run through three police chiefs.

Speaker 2 (01:35:06):
Well, here's the.

Speaker 5 (01:35:07):
Thing about the new police chief. I'm going to give
him a hot minute, right, I'm going to give him
a hot minute to get his feet under him, and
then you know, a few weeks a month, if everybody
is still left in place, then yeah, there's there's got
to be big questions and he needs to come before
the city council and talk about this. I want to
ask you specifically though about the city manager, because people
don't realize that Aurora has a weak mayor form of governance.

(01:35:30):
It's why the city manager makes a crap ton more
money than the mayor makes because ostensibly the city manager
oversees the Aurora Police Department and public safety. I have
heard not one word from the city manager of Aurora.
Where has he been? What is he doing well?

Speaker 6 (01:35:49):
And he won't because his stance is that the problem
with the apartment complex is is code enforcement violations, and
solely code enforce violations. So you won't hear from him.
He's made his stance very clear.

Speaker 5 (01:36:06):
How is that allowed to continue?

Speaker 6 (01:36:09):
I take that question meaning that that's why I'm exposing
everything that I'm exposing. How is this allowed to continue?
How are people still still suffering at the hand of
this transnational gang and we're still denying it? How is
this okay?

Speaker 2 (01:36:31):
Yeah?

Speaker 5 (01:36:31):
I'm right there with you. I'm right there with you.
Do you have more documentation that you're going to be
putting out on X as it comes forward?

Speaker 6 (01:36:39):
I have money, and as it comes forward, I will
be putting it out.

Speaker 5 (01:36:44):
Somebody just said, don't scare Danielle, but I hope she
has bodyguards. TDA surely will make her a target. Do
you worry about that.

Speaker 7 (01:36:53):
I worry about a lot.

Speaker 6 (01:36:55):
I worry about it a lot. I worry about myself.
I worry about a lot of people in my life.
I have thought about all of these things. Quite frankly,
it haunts me. And that's another reason, Mandy, why the
truth has to come out.

Speaker 9 (01:37:11):
The truth has to come out.

Speaker 5 (01:37:13):
It has to What would what could happen today if
you get off the phone with me, What could happen
today behind the scenes that would make you back down
from releasing all this because this is more negative press
for Aurora, right, And I know that, and Ross and
I were talking about this today. You love Aurora, and
every time I talk to you, that is one of

(01:37:34):
the takeaways that I have. You're not doing this to grandstand.
You're not doing this to get attention. You're doing it
because you love Aurora and you want it to be better.
But what needs to happen for you to say, look,
we can handle this behind the scenes.

Speaker 6 (01:37:48):
Well, first, somebody could come and tell me that King,
anybody from the police chief office, or a federal agent
or a Colorado State patrol After first, somebody could pull
me aside and say, hey, Danielle, here's a plan but
we have to keep it somewhat quiet. But there is

(01:38:09):
a plan, there is a plan. We acknowledge this, and
there is a plan. So if somebody could could come
to me first and say that and fill me in
that nobody has. Nobody has. Everybody just continues to deny this.
So the first thing that can happen after we hang

(01:38:30):
up the phone is somebody acknowledges this. The Batter's office,
the City of Aurora, the Aurora Police Department, somebody could
acknowledge this. Because once it is acknowledged that we have
this problem, help.

Speaker 7 (01:38:49):
Has to come.

Speaker 6 (01:38:51):
Americans will not sit by and tolerate this.

Speaker 13 (01:38:54):
Not Democrats, not Republicans, not anyone. Americans will not sit
idly buy and accept this human suffering. So once it
is actually acknowledged that this is in fact the truth,
this is the truth, well, then help has to come.

Speaker 5 (01:39:13):
It has to well, Danielle, I'm glad, I'm glad you're
doing this, and I have a lot of a lot
of sympathy for you, because it's got to be incredibly
frustrating to keep sounding the alarm and then have everybody
around you tell you to sit down and shut up.
And that's what it feels like has happened so far.
So you keep doing what you're doing. We're going to
keep pressing. If I could get any of the governor

(01:39:35):
or Attorney general on the show, I would ask him
about it. But keep doing what you're doing because the loud,
you know, the squeaky wheel gets the grease, keep squeaking.
Keep doing it and we will talk again. Hopefully the
next time we talk we talk about the great plan
that Aurora has to address this issue now and going forward.

Speaker 6 (01:39:53):
I hope so Wellmandy, thank you so much.

Speaker 5 (01:39:55):
All right, Danielle Drinsky of the Aurora City Council. A
rod turned into a pumpkin. Name Grant. Hello, It's Grant everybody.

So I'm gonna wait till the end of the question.
I'll give you a fair shake. That sportsmanship, Well, there
is enough of a delay that it's not fun. What
I mean, it's like I don't want to beat somebody
like that. I just want to beat it normally.
