Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Dan Kaplis, and welcome to today's online podcast
edition of The Dan Kaplis Show. Please be sure to
give us a five star rating if you'd be so kind,
and to subscribe, download and listen to the show every
single day on your favorite podcast platform. You know, in
my short life, this is the most amazing thing I've seen,
you know, since this Trump victory. Just it's not always
(00:23):
ever going to be pure, right, but as clear as
any human endeavor can be. Since this Trump victory, we
have all of these positives. We have all of these
great tangible, concrete things happening moving America and the world
in the right direction. And they're some more to talk
(00:44):
about right now. But how about this one, probably at
the top of the list, right, Israel and Hespela about
to agree on a ceasefire agreement. Now, the only reason
this is happening is peace through strength.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Right.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
This is not some ceasefire agreement where Israel is making
some major concs sessions. Now, this is a ceasefire agreement
because Israel has absolutely clobbered Iran and Hesbela. By the way,
let's not even use that word. Okay, it's Iran. This
is a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Iran, because Hesbela
is just another arm of Iran. It's a military extension
(01:17):
of Iran, as Amasa is. And so this is Israel
beating Iran into submission when it comes to the peace
of Iran, the Iranian military in Lebanon. And it is
also obviously fear of Donald Trump, because there is a
new sheriff in town now and there can be no
(01:39):
doubt that Israel is going to have the full support
of President Trump. So that's where peace comes from. And
these people who say, oh, Donald Trump is some kind
of pacifist, No, he's a peace maker. He doesn't retreat,
he causes the enemy to retreat. He just doesn't have
to fight wars because the enemy knows he's strong and
(01:59):
he means business. And we have the greatest military in
the history of the world, which he is going to
fully fund and support. So a great thing happening with
this Israel hespe Lah cease fire agreement. The exact terms
we don't know at this point. We just know from
all the surrounding circumstances that this is going to be capitulation.
(02:20):
This is going to be on Israel's terms. As it
should be, because there's clear right and wrong here. And
listen the people in Lebanon who are innocent, and there
are many who are innocent, and their hostages of Iran. Yeah,
those people, you know that they're terrible faith that they've
been suffering. That's due to Iran, it's not due to Israel.
(02:41):
Israel is a right to self defense and Israel is winning.
So this is an enormously positive step for the United
States of America and the world, and certainly for our
great ally Israel.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
So just more good news to start the show with.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Eight five five four zero five eight two five five
text DN five seven.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Seven three nine anytime you'd like on anything.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
You'd like, And that's quick digression. That's one way talk
radio has changed so much over the years. When I
first started twenty five plus years ago, you know, you'd
have your kind of list of topics and you go
ABCD whatever. But the world's changed so much, right just
twenty four to seven news cycle. Everything is happening so fast.
Everybody's getting their information instantaneously, whether it's through X or
(03:26):
something else. And so yeah, we're not going to try
to restrain that whirlwind. There'd be no fun in that
So anything you want to kick around fire at will.
One of the few true free speech zones left in
the world right now. Now that will also begin to
shift under President Trump. It's obviously one of the reasons
he won is so many Americans who normally vote Democrats
(03:46):
is pushing back against the censorship and the oppression happening
in so many different ways.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
Think about it.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
It got to the point where if you were unwilling
to say, oh, yeah, that guy with a penis who's
walking into the girl's shower is really a man, you
couldn't even say that right because all of a sudden
you'd be banished from quote civilized society. The force of
admission to the left's version of civilized society is to lie. No,
(04:14):
a lot of Americans weren't willing to go there anymore,
and thank God for that.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
So we got that going for us.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
But we got to start with this right because the
whole country's talking about it, as they should. We were
on it the moment the story broke and called it
for what it was, it called to insurrection. But now
Denver's Mayor Mike Johnston, who obviously doesn't care about Denver
or Denver rights at all, Mike Johnston, you know, doubles down, No,
(04:42):
double's down with this whole. He'll go to jail, He'll
he'll go to jail if necessary to try to stop
the federal government from enforcing federal law. Yeah, that makes sense, right,
But in any case, thank goodness, the Trump administration just
calling them out. And this has to be one of
the great lines of the millennium.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Is Tom Homan? Obviously borders are Tom.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
You heard this mayor out there in Colorado. I want
to get your reaction to it, and I want you
to be clear about who has jurisdiction, the federal government
or state and local governments. And if you're a sanctuary
state or city, are you breaking the law?
Speaker 5 (05:17):
Absolutely breaking law? Oh, I have to do them. Look
at Arizona versus us US. See the he's breaking law. Well, look,
me and the Denver mayor we agree on one thing.
He's willing to go to jail. I'm willing to put
him in jail.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
See one of the great lines of all time. Right,
And so what do you think do you want to see?
We'll open up the phone lines get your thoughts on this.
Eight five five four zero five eight two five to
five the number Text d A N five seven seven
thirty nine.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Hi Kelly, so what's our favorite call screener doing? I
sorry about that, I thought I did.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Okay, that's okay. No need to open the lines, especially
if you're a call screener. I mean, think about how
pesky that could get.
Speaker 6 (05:55):
Well, that's a little aggressive in the call screening department
there opening them.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Yes we have close yes, no, it's but hey, you
take the bowl by the horns.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
I like that.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Eight five five or zero five eight two to five
five the number you can get in now if you'd like,
text d an five seven seven three nine.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
But what do you think?
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Do you want to see Mayor Johnston go to jail?
Do you think he will go to jail? Now understand
Mayor Johnston grew up in Vail, where probably the idea
of jail food was the burgers at Midvale.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
Got a little cold. But what do you think do
you think he should go to jail? Do you want
to see him go to jail?
Speaker 1 (06:36):
And maybe the bigger question, why the blank is he
doing this?
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Why is he doing this?
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Because he knows by coming out and saying the truly
goofy bizarre things he has, promising an insurrection, promising to
put Denver police out at the county line to stop
federal law enforcement, calling for fifty thousand to take the
streets allah, he says, Tim and Square, to stop our neighbors,
Colorado's who serve in federal law enforcement from enforcing federal law.
(07:06):
Why do you think he's doing all that knowing and
this doesn't get talked about enough, but knowing that no
matter what else happens.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
He puts law enforcement in more danger.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
But he is also doing the single biggest thing you
can do to attract more illegal immigrants to Colorado. So
the starting point question for today is why do you
think Denver mayor Johnston wants to attract large numbers of
additional illegal immigrants to Colorado? Knowing that will include illegal
(07:38):
immigrants who are going to be otherwise law abiding but
still a strain on resources this city and state can't afford,
and knowing that it's going to include plenty of illegal
immigrants who are also hardened criminals.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Why do you think he wants to do that?
Speaker 1 (07:54):
This is a profoundly serious question because he knew when
he came out and said the things he said that
any thinking person here ilegally would want to head to
Denver because the mayor is going to protect him. The
mayor is going to use Denver police to stop federal
law enforcement from enforcing federal immigration law. The mayor is
(08:15):
calling fifty thousand Denver rights to take to the streets
to protect illegal immigrants from having federal law enforced. So
you tell me why does he want to attract more
illegals to Denver? Warren in beautiful Colorado Springs. You're on
the dan Kapla show.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
Welcome.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Yeah, just what I'm not going to talk to today
about Rukraine talk to you about that mirror. Yes, I
think you should be put to jail.
Speaker 7 (08:40):
On on to go to jail.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Now what could he go to jail for right now?
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Because I don't think he's committed a crime yet other
than kind of criminal idiocy.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Yeah. Once you bring what you just said about people out,
that's I'll push.
Speaker 8 (09:00):
You for some war.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
Yeah, you know it is. It is really mind blowing,
isn't it. Warren?
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Thank you for the call. We've got to hit this
hard break. But please tell me why do you think
he wants more illegal immigrants here?
Speaker 7 (09:13):
Now?
Speaker 1 (09:13):
I know that that the root cause of the left
one to flood the nation with folks here illegally, including
those unvetted, is because they view all of the folks
here I legally as future voters for the Democrats.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
I get that.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
But why do you think with everything going on now
and knowing that that Trump is about to crack down,
why do you think he's trying to attract folks here
in the States illegally from across the rest of America
to flee to Denver to be protected from federal law enforcement.
Why do you think he's trying to do that? Eight
(09:48):
five five or zero five eight two five five text
d an five seven seven three nine And which dale
do you want to see him go to? If that's
what you want, You're on the Dan Caplas Show.
Speaker 6 (10:00):
And now back to the Dan Kapla Show podcast.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Me and the Denver mayor.
Speaker 5 (10:05):
We agree on one thing. He's willing to go to jail.
I'm willing to put him in jail.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
One of the great lines of all time. Right, do
you want.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
To see Mayor Johnston go to jail? Do you think
he should go to jail? Do you think he will
go to jail? Why do you think he's gone out
of his way to attract many, many more illegal immigrants
to Denver because he has to know these crazy things
he's been saying are going to have just that effect.
I mean, if you were here illegally and you had
the mayor of Denver saying that he'll use the Denver
(10:38):
police to go out and take on federal law enforcement
to protect folks here illegally, wouldn't you be coming to
Denver right now? And that is not what Denver needs.
And that's no reflection on anybody from south of the
border anything else.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
But Denver just can't handle it.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Colorado can't handle it, even the many folks who are
peaceful in law abiding, but but then you obviously have
the other criminal element. Denver can't handle any of that.
So why does Johnston want more of it? Let's go
to Mike from Johnstown to talk about Mike Johnston. You're
on the Dan Kaplosh'll welcome Mike.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Hi, Dan, thank you for you know, giving us a
lot of this good information over the years. You've been
on service here a great American and I want to
thank you for that. So actually I'm the actual mayor
of Johnstown, Colorado.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
So I think, you know, I think looking at this
from this perspective, I think he wants to become the
Gavin Newsom of Denver, because you know, you're looking at
twenty twenty six for governor. He's basically wanting to put
his foot down in the stand. Maybe David get his
face out there. And I think this is going to
be the platform that he runs off. Man.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
I think you now, Yeah, I.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Think so too. I even I even tweeted at him.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
What you tweet I'll read it for it? Yeah, please, And.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
I'll give you my my tweet handle. It's at Duncan
JT Mayor at Duncan j T Mayor Mayor john Yeah, yeah, yeah,
like NTS, I wish I had the dunkin Donuts money
years to be having a different conversation.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Yeah, but.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
I said, as mayor of Johnstown, I'm extending a welcoming
hand to aat Denver police officers might feel undervalued under
the leadership of Denver's mayor. At Mike Johnstown, Colorado, if
the Democratic mayor's policies prompted resignation, consider Johnstown your refuge.
Speaker 7 (12:33):
Here.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Your commitment and integrity are not only respected, but highly regarded.
Our community stands firm and supporting law enforcement and sharing
safety without redefining the mission, I will open up Johnstown
as the headquarters to help carry out the justice against
the legal criminals who threaten our citizens, murder our citizens,
and rape our children and women. Also at the Real
Tom Holman can stage his headquarters in Johnstown to start
(12:56):
the mass deportation to protect our citizens of Colorado. Join
us to the post. Well, you're truly appreciated and your
role is central to our shared success. Johnstown, welcome to
you supports the Blue Colorado United at the Real Donald Trump.
So if they really want to kick this party off, right, hey,
bring it to Johnstown and let's kick it off right man.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
Hey, thank you for that.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
And this guy who's been up at a lot of
youth baseball tournaments and stuff in Johnstown. It's a wonderful place.
I could definitely see some Denver PD wanting to relocate
there and also law abiding, which is a big deal. Hey,
thank you, mayor appreciate that you take care. Definitely, thank you, sir.
Yeah yeah, and listen, I would bet you in my
(13:38):
car right now. You may not want it right now,
I got to get it in the shop. But I
would bet you in my car right now that you
would have very very very few, if any DPD who
would follow Mayor Johnston's illegal orders to go out and
confront federal law enforcement. Very very very few, and I
mean I'm talking about you could probably count them on
(13:59):
one hand.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
If that many.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
Tom Holman, as part of taking on the Denver mayor,
wants to clarify the intent of the Trump administration.
Speaker 9 (14:09):
Let me be clear, there is going to be a
mass deportation because we just finished a mass illegal immigration
crisis on the border. Or anybody can look at nine
out of ten people claim asylum at the border will
end up with the order removal. So you can't ask
for the right to claim asylum, the right to see
a judge, the right to do process, and we give
(14:30):
you that due process, and at the end of that
due process, a federal judge orders you removed. We have
to remove them because if we don't shut down immigration court,
those orders don't mean anything anymore. Take you guys off
the border because there's no consequences.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
Sounds serious to me.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
Ryan, I mean, he's like the perfectly cast Trump team
member there. But I don't know that I can ever
stop playing this one.
Speaker 9 (14:58):
Let me be clear, there is going to be a
mass deportation.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
Well, actually the one I was after is this one.
Speaker 5 (15:07):
I mean, in the Denver mayor, we agree on one thing.
He's willing to go to jail. I'm willing to put
him in jail.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Let's start with something first. Okay, Mike Johnston is not
willing to go to jail, and so don't expect him
to ever end up in jail. I agree with the
mayor of Johnstown who just called the show, and I've
been saying it for a while, this craziness which is
at the expense of the people of Denver and the
people of Colorado, because it's obviously going to attract a
(15:34):
lot more illegal folks here. It is all about Mike
Johnston trying to become governor, and he can see what's happening.
He can see that it's slipping away from him. If
Joe Negose wants the nomination, Joe No Goose is going
to get the nomination. But Joe is, I would guess,
probably going to stay in Congress because they're betting they
can get the majority back in twenty six and that
(15:57):
he might then have a shot, might have a shot
at speaker. So but I think what Johnston sees in
Denver is wait a second, fill. Wiser seems to be
moving into the lead there, and so I think this is,
you know, strip naked, light yourself on fire, and then
just try to attract attention and money from the crazy
secular far left. And again, I know it's hard for
(16:20):
kind of saying people to understand, but the calculation of
all these these far left Democrats, whether you're talking Wiser, Johnston, Griswold, whatever,
is that as long as they win the primary, they're
going to win the general. In their mind, they cannot
lose the general. So they can go as far left
as they want to in a primary like far left
of far left of Kamala Harris far left and still
(16:42):
win the general. So that's their calculation. I think they're
taking a big risk there because they you're talking about
an open seat, they don't have Polus's pocketbook, and you're
talking about a Colorado that I think is much less
happy with illegal immigration now than it was before. Let's
go to Jack and Cheyenne. You're on the Dan Caplis.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
You'll welcome.
Speaker 10 (17:06):
Danny on two issues.
Speaker 8 (17:07):
I see two legal remedies that.
Speaker 10 (17:09):
Nobody is using. And I know why they're not using it,
because they're all gutless.
Speaker 8 (17:15):
I hate to put you in that camp right now.
I think you are. If this mayor in uh won't
cooperate with the federal government with respect to cleaning up
these illegals that are here illegally, all they have to
do is file a rid of mandamus and federal court
and it excuse me, Supreme Court in Colorado. And then
if if you prevail on that, and if the mayor's
(17:38):
order to come by with the Feds and he doesn't
do it, then he's in contempt of court.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
He Jack hald On a second, Jack, I missed the
gutless piece.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
You had me excited. So where's the part where I'm
being gutless.
Speaker 10 (17:52):
Because you're not filing a rid of mandamus and you're
not voting it.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
And then they're saying, okay, so let me get this straight, bit,
let me let me get this jack, check check check,
let me get this straight. Because I'm not willing to
do something goofy and legally frivolous.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
I'm gutless.
Speaker 7 (18:10):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
So yeah, but but hold that thought, Jack, Yeah, because
that's Jack's definition of gutless unless you're willing to do
something goofy legally frivolous that would destroy your credibility. You're
now gutless. Fascinating. You're on the Dan Caplass Show.
Speaker 6 (18:28):
You're listening to the Dan Caplis Show podcast.
Speaker 3 (18:31):
Somebody Get Hurt. Packed there Courtney Love telling you that
you're gutless. She's agreeing apparently with Jack. Wow.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Yeah, that the last caller who then the profiling courage
ran away during the break right to meg.
Speaker 6 (18:45):
Up, just like John F.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
Kennedy. Yeah, so he was John F.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
Kennedy was a profiling courage that he wrote the book,
right this guy? And I love Jack but but but yeah,
that' right, no great book, bestseller, Ye Jack.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Yeah. Jack calls up and says.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
I'm gutless because I refuse to file some frivolous legal
action that would seriously harm my credibility, etc.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
What mean you to do?
Speaker 1 (19:12):
I couldn't even comprehend it. It's some goofyesque thing you
must have seen on the internet somewhere. But the fact
he would call up and say that I'm gutless. Listen,
call me anything you want to, but one thing you
just know by definition is nobody who shows up here
every day for almost thirty years and opens the phone
lines up and tells Kelly, Hey, whenever you do up
in the line's up, Kelly, let anybody on who wants
(19:34):
to come on.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
You can't call that person gutless, right, because I mean,
who else does that?
Speaker 1 (19:40):
I mean, there are plenty of people who do more
courageous things, but people who do that aren't gutless. And yeah,
I mean think about all these politicians, right, and these
office holders who wouldn't dare do that for ten minutes.
And it's just one of the reasons why you see
this whole new breed a Democrat. We need to talk
(20:00):
more about that, because you got this whole new breed
of democrat, the Mike Johnston's, the Jared polis Is, the Bennett's,
the hick and loopers, who they had some skills in
the beginning, and they had some potential in the beginning,
but then they got truly gutless, and they wouldn't come
(20:20):
on a show like mine. Well, let's face it, people
and everybody's treated with respect. They wouldn't do that because
they were afraid they might make a mistake. They couldn't
back up their position, etc. So then they just became
kind of weak and flaccid. And when they try to
get out of the Colorado media bubble and go onto
the national scene, they just get destroyed because whatever skills
(20:44):
they once had are gone. Now contrast this new breed
of Colorado Democrat with the old guard. These were giants.
I mean, they were wrong on the big issues. I
just agreed with them on the wrong issues, but they
were giants. You compare a mere Web to a mayor Johnston.
Mayor Webb was a giant. He was a man's man.
(21:05):
You know, we had a disagreement, we'd come on Aaron,
we'd talk about it. If if you know, something got haywired,
he'd invite me to lunch and we'd sit down and he'd,
you know, he apologize one stuff like that. He is
a man's man, you know, big tough guy. And I
don't mean that in a gender sense. I just mean
he was a giant. You talk about some of the
other Democrats and again wrong on a lot of big issues,
(21:28):
but big people, big strong people. And I understand Gary
Hart had all that craziness and really made a huge
mistake there and everything else, but in plenty of other ways.
Gary Hart was a big timer monkey business. Yeah, not
so great, but in many ways he was a big timer.
Who are some of the other Democrat I mean, there
(21:49):
were so many big time Democrats who just got it
wrong on some big issues. Tim Worth, Yeah, wrong on
some big issues, but a big time god, big time human.
And there are many more of those. And the Democrats
a right now.
Speaker 3 (22:05):
They're so puny. They're so puny.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
They just hide behind this D plus nine thing they
have going on in Colorado. They hide behind the skirts
of the media. They hide behind their superior money. But
they're puny actors. Yeah, eight five five for zero five
eight two five five. So the natural question is, okay, Dan,
why can't there Republicans beat them?
Speaker 3 (22:27):
Well, who says they can't?
Speaker 1 (22:29):
I mean, I understand it's a mega uphill battle right
now because it is probably D plus nine and then
the media covering for the Democrats is worth another what
probably two or three hundred million per cycle, and then
they can print money because they all just crawl on
their hands and knees and beg these you know, billionaire
lefties who decide who wins in Colorado. Except for Polis
(22:52):
with his own almost billionaire money.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
But they're puny actors. Yeah, it's it's it's.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Sad for Colorado in a way, though, it's actually a
plus for Colorado because if you had big time lefties,
you know, big time actors like the Democrat A lot
of the Democrat officeholders used to be really strong, talented
people who could hold their own. Then they'd be doing
a lot more policy damage because they are big time.
(23:22):
These puny Democrat actors we have right now. Yeah, not fortunately,
they do a lot of damage, don't get me wrong,
but fortunately nowhere near the amount of damage they'd be
able to do if they were actually big time actors
like some of the earlier Democrats in Colorado. Now me,
I would much rather have some of the big timers
(23:42):
who were Republicans because we had some giants. We had
some Republican giants back in the day, you know, including
Bill Armstrong, Bill Owens. You know, we had some giants
and there were more than that. Jack in Cheyenne is back.
That's great news. How you doing check?
Speaker 10 (24:02):
You know, Danny, we've gone back a long time. But
you always control the conversation by hanging up on me.
It was just something that Mike Rosen would never done.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
Check when have I ever done off?
Speaker 1 (24:11):
You have got the gun?
Speaker 7 (24:13):
Check?
Speaker 3 (24:13):
When have I ever hung up on?
Speaker 10 (24:14):
You can't do it all the time?
Speaker 3 (24:17):
When's the when's the last time? Do you know?
Speaker 10 (24:20):
Do you know what the legal writ of Maine damis is?
Do you know how many times in hundreds of years
it's been used? And do you know what it's even
used for?
Speaker 8 (24:29):
I wonder where you went to law school?
Speaker 2 (24:31):
Yeah, Jack, you answer my question.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Jack, you're assuming I went to law school. You don't
think maybe the last forty years?
Speaker 10 (24:38):
Just can't prove it from your show, I guess yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
Yeah no.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
And Jeck, you know what's really cool is all these
big trials I've won.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
I wasn't even a lawyer. Yeah, it wasn't even a lawyer.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
All these big nobody ever said hey, Dan, can you
actually produce? So I won all these big trials without
even Dan a lawyer. I'm joking, by the way, if
you're thinking a high me, I'm joking.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
How hard is it?
Speaker 10 (25:01):
How hard is it to one the case against the
trucking company? When the jury panel is selected through board
here with everybody who hates trucks, It doesn't take a
lot of talent to do that, Danny.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
Oh check, Well, let me ask you about I trust
you heard this coming truck.
Speaker 10 (25:18):
Courtroom over a truck is that's what believe me.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
But let me ask you this, Jack, then, can you
explain why we have.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
What I still think I haven't checked the data today,
but I still think is the largest trucking jury verdict
in Colorado history?
Speaker 3 (25:30):
So why would I have that?
Speaker 7 (25:32):
If?
Speaker 3 (25:32):
If everybody else is just as good?
Speaker 10 (25:37):
Danny, it's easy to beat up trucks in court because
everybody in the jury panel hates trucks.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
I own a trucks.
Speaker 7 (25:43):
I know all about it.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Let's not let's not talk about that.
Speaker 7 (25:48):
Let's not bring it up.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
Let's not talk about trucks.
Speaker 10 (25:52):
Okay, Danny, Let's let's get back to the contentious issues.
Speaker 8 (25:56):
Let's okay.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
The last time I talked to you about.
Speaker 10 (25:58):
Abortion, you have quated abortion with being murdered. How many
women that have had an abortion are you willing to
drag up into a courtroom and accuse him of murder?
Speaker 3 (26:07):
How many?
Speaker 2 (26:08):
Chick?
Speaker 7 (26:08):
First of all, if you're making.
Speaker 10 (26:09):
The equation and an abortion is the same thing as murder,
you said it was the last time we.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Talked, check abortion is murder?
Speaker 10 (26:16):
How many women that have had an abortion are going
to go to jail for murder? Answer that question, Danny,
Are you okay?
Speaker 2 (26:22):
Check?
Speaker 3 (26:24):
Seriously, I'm finding it. I a little bit care about you.
I'm worried for you. Are you okay?
Speaker 10 (26:28):
No?
Speaker 3 (26:29):
You go.
Speaker 8 (26:29):
We've talked for thirty years.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
Yeah, and I'm worried about you right now.
Speaker 10 (26:33):
I'm probably ninety percent of your positions.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
I'm one hundred percent with you.
Speaker 10 (26:37):
Yeah, but I'm the ones that I'm not. You just
hang up on me because you never check, never hung
up intellectually with me.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
To do it all.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
I think everyone can see that joke.
Speaker 10 (26:47):
Jack, tell me about Maine damis and tell me how
many times that's been used in the last one hundred
and fifty two hundred years in order to make government
officials cooperate with the law. Tell me how many times
it's been used.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Check Are you okay? And are you going to let
me talk? Because if you're not going to let me talk,
I will hang up on you. For the first time.
I want that on the record. But yeah, so.
Speaker 3 (27:08):
Can I talk?
Speaker 2 (27:09):
Jack?
Speaker 10 (27:09):
Go ahead, go ahead, okay.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
Thank you, okay, Jack? Yeah, thank you. I like Jack
a lot. I don't know what's going on today. Here's
the deal. I don't think i've ever hung up on
Jack in twenty five plus years.
Speaker 3 (27:22):
He's going to claim that you just say second.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
Second, He's just making stuff up. And when it comes
to abortion, I don't think there's been anybody on Life
on Air more pro life than me over the decades.
There are some really good, strong pro life people on air.
But but the point is, I don't That's not my argument.
I have never even once argued that, Okay, these women
(27:47):
who are getting a legal abortion are committing murder. I've
never argued that once because my mission is not to
vilify them. My mission is to save the innocent life.
And so my point has always been I don't blame
the woman who has the abortion. I think that I
(28:07):
know so many great, fantastic, tremendous women who had abortions,
and they are very often under a lot of pressure
from a lot of different sources. It can be a
guy who used them for sex and then took off.
It can be family, it can be all sorts of things.
They're under a lot of pressures, and then they're also
living in a country where it's not only legal, but
(28:29):
it's glorified and glamorized, so it's it doesn't change the outcome,
which is that an innocent human life is lost. But
I have never once on air in all these decades
said all women who have abortions are committing murder. What
I've talked about is a simple reality, that is the
taking of an innocent human life, just as a matter
of science, undeniably. My focus is on the politicians who
(28:54):
know that that what they're promoting is the taking of
innocent human life, and they do it so they can
get in key power. That that is a cold blooded
mass killing for personal gain. That's aimed at the politicians,
It's aimed at the so called doctors and others in
the medical profession who abuse their skills to go out
(29:14):
and commit mass killing for profit.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
That's where I'm focused.
Speaker 6 (29:20):
And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast Me in.
Speaker 5 (29:23):
The Denver Mayor. We agree on one thing. He's willing
to go to jail. I'm willing to put him in jail.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
Wow, Tom Homan.
Speaker 1 (29:31):
And I'm really glad he said that because Mike Johnston
has asked for it, coming out and first promising an insurrection,
using DPD to take on federal law enforcement, by the way,
many of whom are fellow Colorado's, and calling fifty thousand
into the streets to try to stop federal.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
Law enforcement from enforcing the law.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
Even though Johnston didn't say they've been, they'd be acting
illegally as a federal government. He just doesn't like the
law being enforced, so he's going to use the police
to stop law enforcement from enforcing the law. Yeah, it's
that bad. So Tom Mahoman, I'm glad you spoke up.
Mike Johnston will never risk going to jail. You know,
Mike Johnston's kid from Vail. I love Vail, and no
(30:11):
knock on him being from Vail, but yeah, jail in
his mind is when the snow's too crunchy, right, So yeah,
he's not going to put himself in a position to
go to jail. He's trying to put himself in a
position to become governor. And the more crazy far left
you are in that primary, probably the better chance you have.
But they all bet that no Republican can beat him
in a general and I think the crazier far left
(30:33):
they go, the better chance a Republican has so glad
you're here. Let's go to callers and some great text
coming in Wendy in Denver. You're on the dan Kapla show.
Speaker 3 (30:43):
Welcome.
Speaker 7 (30:45):
How you doing.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
I'm living the dream? How about you?
Speaker 2 (30:50):
I'm trying.
Speaker 7 (30:53):
No, it wasn't that long ago that this mayor he
was joined with the home problem, and then we have
the influx of the illegals, and he was like, we
can't handle this, we can't handle this. And then he
turns where I am and now he's ready to go
to fight, fight for and yeah, telling governors at one thing.
(31:16):
But I don't know, I might have misunderstood that. I
actually heard somebody that if he does go to jail
or something very un lawful, he could lose his job.
And I don't know if that's true.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Yeah, you would be thinking about rand Paul's coming. Hey,
do you really appreciate the call Rand Paul had referred
to him being removed from office. I did not understand
that reference. Now, certainly, if somebody is violating the law,
interfering with federal law enforcement, committing an insurrection, they can
be properly prosecuted and jailed for that.
Speaker 3 (31:48):
But somehow being removed from the job.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
I didn't follow Rand Paul on that one. Yeah, and
listen with Mike Johnston. I hope people realize, I know
they do that. So what this tells you about him?
And it's the same with all these lefties. They don't
care at all about the people that they're supposed to
be serving, or Mike Johnson wouldn't be going out of
his way to attract literally every person in America illegally
(32:15):
right now to Denver, because that's what he's doing. It's
not that all will come, but they're going to hear
about it. Right when the mayor of a major city,
and by the way, one of the most beautiful places
God has created on Earth, says that he's going to
use the police to fight federal law enforcement to stop
them from enforcing immigration law. And he's calling fifty thousand
(32:36):
to the streets to protect and defend folks here illegally. Yeah,
folks here, illegally all over America are going to come
to Denver. Tony and Denver. You're on the Dan Kaplas show. Welcome, Hey, Tony.
Tony's the quiet Sword. But we'll get him back later
(32:57):
in the show. Eight five five zero five two five five.
Speaker 3 (33:01):
The number.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
Let's get to some text, Dan, Jack is mistaken. Ritz
of man damis are used all the time. Listen, riddaman
damis is just a court order and a government to
do something or stop doing something. So Jack was off
on some kakammi legal theory in my mind, and yeah,
we all have off days, Dan, monkey business. Did you
(33:23):
just describe Gary Heart's behavior as monkey business?
Speaker 8 (33:25):
Ha?
Speaker 1 (33:26):
Good one. That was the name of his yacht. The
point I was making at the time is how small
and puny the current Democrats in high office are in Colorado.
You know where there's Polist Bennett, Hickenloper Johnston. They're small,
they're puny. They won't come on shows like this, they
won't engage in a tough interview. They're scared of their
own shadow. And so the skills they once had they
(33:47):
then lose. And when they go out in a national
arena they get absolutely clobbered because they don't have those
skills anymore. They're too weak for the competition in a
national arena. I was contrasting it with Democrats before them, who,
while wrong on big issues, were giants like mayor web
For example, Gary Hart had his monkey business and that
was a big, big mistake, obviously, but in many other ways,
(34:10):
Gary Hart was a big timer. Tim Worth yeah wrong
on some major issues, but a big time guy, and
you could go right on.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
Down the list.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
There used to be a lot of big time, strong, smart,
tough Democrats who were not afraid of their shadow. They
weren't afraid of someone with different views, they weren't afraid
of tough questions, and they'd come on the show all
the time. This current breed they're just puny. You know,
they went office because Colorado's lefty state now, but they
(34:39):
never get anything meaningful done and they don't go beyond Colerad.
Speaker 3 (34:43):
You know, they're just small and what a sad waste
that is.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
But at least they don't do as much damage as
they would if they were bigger figures like there used
to be in the Democratic Party. Has some true giants
in the GOP as well. I think we're starting to
make a move back in that to direction for the
GOP when we come back. Do you think Mayor Johnston
will go to jail? Shitty, You're on the Dan Kapla Show.
This is Dan Kaplis, and welcome to today's online podcast
edition of The Dan Kaplis Show. Please be sure to
give us a five star rating if you'd be so kind,
and to subscribe, download and listen to the show every
single day on your favorite podcast platform. You know, in
my short life, this is the most amazing thing I've seen,
you know, since this Trump victory. Just it's not always
(00:23):
ever going to be pure, right, but as clear as
any human endeavor can be. Since this Trump victory, we
have all of these positives. We have all of these
great tangible, concrete things happening moving America and the world
in the right direction. And they're some more to talk
(00:44):
about right now. But how about this one, probably at
the top of the list, right, Israel and Hespela about
to agree on a ceasefire agreement. Now, the only reason
this is happening is peace through strength.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
Right.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
This is not some ceasefire agreement where Israel is making
some major concs sessions. Now, this is a ceasefire agreement
because Israel has absolutely clobbered Iran and Hesbela. By the way,
let's not even use that word. Okay, it's Iran. This
is a ceasefire agreement between Israel and Iran, because Hesbela
is just another arm of Iran. It's a military extension
(01:17):
of Iran, as Amasa is. And so this is Israel
beating Iran into submission when it comes to the peace
of Iran, the Iranian military in Lebanon. And it is
also obviously fear of Donald Trump, because there is a
new sheriff in town now and there can be no
(01:39):
doubt that Israel is going to have the full support
of President Trump. So that's where peace comes from. And
these people who say, oh, Donald Trump is some kind
of pacifist, No, he's a peace maker. He doesn't retreat,
he causes the enemy to retreat. He just doesn't have
to fight wars because the enemy knows he's strong and
(01:59):
he means business. And we have the greatest military in
the history of the world, which he is going to
fully fund and support. So a great thing happening with
this Israel hespe Lah cease fire agreement. The exact terms
we don't know at this point. We just know from
all the surrounding circumstances that this is going to be capitulation.
(02:20):
This is going to be on Israel's terms. As it
should be, because there's clear right and wrong here. And
listen the people in Lebanon who are innocent, and there
are many who are innocent, and their hostages of Iran. Yeah,
those people, you know that they're terrible faith that they've
been suffering. That's due to Iran, it's not due to Israel.
(02:41):
Israel is a right to self defense and Israel is winning.
So this is an enormously positive step for the United
States of America and the world, and certainly for our
great ally Israel.
Speaker 3 (02:53):
So just more good news to start the show with.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
Eight five five four zero five eight two five five
text DN five seven.
Speaker 3 (02:59):
Seven three nine anytime you'd like on anything.
Speaker 1 (03:02):
You'd like, And that's quick digression. That's one way talk
radio has changed so much over the years. When I
first started twenty five plus years ago, you know, you'd
have your kind of list of topics and you go
ABCD whatever. But the world's changed so much, right just
twenty four to seven news cycle. Everything is happening so fast.
Everybody's getting their information instantaneously, whether it's through X or
(03:26):
something else. And so yeah, we're not going to try
to restrain that whirlwind. There'd be no fun in that
So anything you want to kick around fire at will.
One of the few true free speech zones left in
the world right now. Now that will also begin to
shift under President Trump. It's obviously one of the reasons
he won is so many Americans who normally vote Democrats
(03:46):
is pushing back against the censorship and the oppression happening
in so many different ways.
Speaker 3 (03:52):
Think about it.
Speaker 1 (03:52):
It got to the point where if you were unwilling
to say, oh, yeah, that guy with a penis who's
walking into the girl's shower is really a man, you
couldn't even say that right because all of a sudden
you'd be banished from quote civilized society. The force of
admission to the left's version of civilized society is to lie. No,
(04:14):
a lot of Americans weren't willing to go there anymore,
and thank God for that.
Speaker 3 (04:19):
So we got that going for us.
Speaker 1 (04:20):
But we got to start with this right because the
whole country's talking about it, as they should. We were
on it the moment the story broke and called it
for what it was, it called to insurrection. But now
Denver's Mayor Mike Johnston, who obviously doesn't care about Denver
or Denver rights at all, Mike Johnston, you know, doubles down, No,
(04:42):
double's down with this whole. He'll go to jail, He'll
he'll go to jail if necessary to try to stop
the federal government from enforcing federal law. Yeah, that makes sense, right,
But in any case, thank goodness, the Trump administration just
calling them out. And this has to be one of
the great lines of the millennium.
Speaker 3 (05:00):
Is Tom Homan? Obviously borders are Tom.
Speaker 4 (05:03):
You heard this mayor out there in Colorado. I want
to get your reaction to it, and I want you
to be clear about who has jurisdiction, the federal government
or state and local governments. And if you're a sanctuary
state or city, are you breaking the law?
Speaker 5 (05:17):
Absolutely breaking law? Oh, I have to do them. Look
at Arizona versus us US. See the he's breaking law. Well, look,
me and the Denver mayor we agree on one thing.
He's willing to go to jail. I'm willing to put
him in jail.
Speaker 1 (05:28):
See one of the great lines of all time. Right,
And so what do you think do you want to see?
We'll open up the phone lines get your thoughts on this.
Eight five five four zero five eight two five to
five the number Text d A N five seven seven
thirty nine.
Speaker 3 (05:42):
Hi Kelly, so what's our favorite call screener doing? I
sorry about that, I thought I did.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Okay, that's okay. No need to open the lines, especially
if you're a call screener. I mean, think about how
pesky that could get.
Speaker 6 (05:55):
Well, that's a little aggressive in the call screening department
there opening them.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
Yes we have close yes, no, it's but hey, you
take the bowl by the horns.
Speaker 3 (06:06):
I like that.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Eight five five or zero five eight two to five
five the number you can get in now if you'd like,
text d an five seven seven three nine.
Speaker 3 (06:13):
But what do you think?
Speaker 1 (06:14):
Do you want to see Mayor Johnston go to jail?
Do you think he will go to jail? Now understand
Mayor Johnston grew up in Vail, where probably the idea
of jail food was the burgers at Midvale.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
Got a little cold. But what do you think do
you think he should go to jail? Do you want
to see him go to jail?
Speaker 1 (06:36):
And maybe the bigger question, why the blank is he
doing this?
Speaker 3 (06:42):
Why is he doing this?
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Because he knows by coming out and saying the truly
goofy bizarre things he has, promising an insurrection, promising to
put Denver police out at the county line to stop
federal law enforcement, calling for fifty thousand to take the
streets allah, he says, Tim and Square, to stop our neighbors,
Colorado's who serve in federal law enforcement from enforcing federal law.
(07:06):
Why do you think he's doing all that knowing and
this doesn't get talked about enough, but knowing that no
matter what else happens.
Speaker 3 (07:14):
He puts law enforcement in more danger.
Speaker 1 (07:16):
But he is also doing the single biggest thing you
can do to attract more illegal immigrants to Colorado. So
the starting point question for today is why do you
think Denver mayor Johnston wants to attract large numbers of
additional illegal immigrants to Colorado? Knowing that will include illegal
(07:38):
immigrants who are going to be otherwise law abiding but
still a strain on resources this city and state can't afford,
and knowing that it's going to include plenty of illegal
immigrants who are also hardened criminals.
Speaker 3 (07:51):
Why do you think he wants to do that?
Speaker 1 (07:54):
This is a profoundly serious question because he knew when
he came out and said the things he said that
any thinking person here ilegally would want to head to
Denver because the mayor is going to protect him. The
mayor is going to use Denver police to stop federal
law enforcement from enforcing federal immigration law. The mayor is
(08:15):
calling fifty thousand Denver rights to take to the streets
to protect illegal immigrants from having federal law enforced. So
you tell me why does he want to attract more
illegals to Denver? Warren in beautiful Colorado Springs. You're on
the dan Kapla show.
Speaker 3 (08:31):
Welcome.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Yeah, just what I'm not going to talk to today
about Rukraine talk to you about that mirror. Yes, I
think you should be put to jail.
Speaker 7 (08:40):
On on to go to jail.
Speaker 3 (08:42):
Now what could he go to jail for right now?
Speaker 1 (08:44):
Because I don't think he's committed a crime yet other
than kind of criminal idiocy.
Speaker 2 (08:52):
Yeah. Once you bring what you just said about people out,
that's I'll push.
Speaker 8 (09:00):
You for some war.
Speaker 3 (09:02):
Yeah, you know it is. It is really mind blowing,
isn't it. Warren?
Speaker 1 (09:06):
Thank you for the call. We've got to hit this
hard break. But please tell me why do you think
he wants more illegal immigrants here?
Speaker 7 (09:13):
Now?
Speaker 1 (09:13):
I know that that the root cause of the left
one to flood the nation with folks here illegally, including
those unvetted, is because they view all of the folks
here I legally as future voters for the Democrats.
Speaker 3 (09:25):
I get that.
Speaker 1 (09:26):
But why do you think with everything going on now
and knowing that that Trump is about to crack down,
why do you think he's trying to attract folks here
in the States illegally from across the rest of America
to flee to Denver to be protected from federal law enforcement.
Why do you think he's trying to do that? Eight
(09:48):
five five or zero five eight two five five text
d an five seven seven three nine And which dale
do you want to see him go to? If that's
what you want, You're on the Dan Caplas Show.
Speaker 6 (10:00):
And now back to the Dan Kapla Show podcast.
Speaker 3 (10:04):
Me and the Denver mayor.
Speaker 5 (10:05):
We agree on one thing. He's willing to go to jail.
I'm willing to put him in jail.
Speaker 3 (10:11):
One of the great lines of all time. Right, do
you want.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
To see Mayor Johnston go to jail? Do you think
he should go to jail? Do you think he will
go to jail? Why do you think he's gone out
of his way to attract many, many more illegal immigrants
to Denver because he has to know these crazy things
he's been saying are going to have just that effect.
I mean, if you were here illegally and you had
the mayor of Denver saying that he'll use the Denver
(10:38):
police to go out and take on federal law enforcement
to protect folks here illegally, wouldn't you be coming to
Denver right now? And that is not what Denver needs.
And that's no reflection on anybody from south of the
border anything else.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
But Denver just can't handle it.
Speaker 1 (10:54):
Colorado can't handle it, even the many folks who are
peaceful in law abiding, but but then you obviously have
the other criminal element. Denver can't handle any of that.
So why does Johnston want more of it? Let's go
to Mike from Johnstown to talk about Mike Johnston. You're
on the Dan Kaplosh'll welcome Mike.
Speaker 2 (11:16):
Hi, Dan, thank you for you know, giving us a
lot of this good information over the years. You've been
on service here a great American and I want to
thank you for that. So actually I'm the actual mayor
of Johnstown, Colorado.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
So I think, you know, I think looking at this
from this perspective, I think he wants to become the
Gavin Newsom of Denver, because you know, you're looking at
twenty twenty six for governor. He's basically wanting to put
his foot down in the stand. Maybe David get his
face out there. And I think this is going to
be the platform that he runs off. Man.
Speaker 3 (11:47):
I think you now, Yeah, I.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Think so too. I even I even tweeted at him.
Speaker 3 (11:55):
What you tweet I'll read it for it? Yeah, please, And.
Speaker 2 (11:58):
I'll give you my my tweet handle. It's at Duncan
JT Mayor at Duncan j T Mayor Mayor john Yeah, yeah, yeah,
like NTS, I wish I had the dunkin Donuts money
years to be having a different conversation.
Speaker 3 (12:15):
Yeah, but.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
I said, as mayor of Johnstown, I'm extending a welcoming
hand to aat Denver police officers might feel undervalued under
the leadership of Denver's mayor. At Mike Johnstown, Colorado, if
the Democratic mayor's policies prompted resignation, consider Johnstown your refuge.
Speaker 7 (12:33):
Here.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Your commitment and integrity are not only respected, but highly regarded.
Our community stands firm and supporting law enforcement and sharing
safety without redefining the mission, I will open up Johnstown
as the headquarters to help carry out the justice against
the legal criminals who threaten our citizens, murder our citizens,
and rape our children and women. Also at the Real
Tom Holman can stage his headquarters in Johnstown to start
(12:56):
the mass deportation to protect our citizens of Colorado. Join
us to the post. Well, you're truly appreciated and your
role is central to our shared success. Johnstown, welcome to
you supports the Blue Colorado United at the Real Donald Trump.
So if they really want to kick this party off, right, hey,
bring it to Johnstown and let's kick it off right man.
Speaker 3 (13:14):
Hey, thank you for that.
Speaker 1 (13:15):
And this guy who's been up at a lot of
youth baseball tournaments and stuff in Johnstown. It's a wonderful place.
I could definitely see some Denver PD wanting to relocate
there and also law abiding, which is a big deal. Hey,
thank you, mayor appreciate that you take care. Definitely, thank you, sir.
Yeah yeah, and listen, I would bet you in my
(13:38):
car right now. You may not want it right now,
I got to get it in the shop. But I
would bet you in my car right now that you
would have very very very few, if any DPD who
would follow Mayor Johnston's illegal orders to go out and
confront federal law enforcement. Very very very few, and I
mean I'm talking about you could probably count them on
(13:59):
one hand.
Speaker 3 (13:59):
If that many.
Speaker 1 (14:01):
Tom Holman, as part of taking on the Denver mayor,
wants to clarify the intent of the Trump administration.
Speaker 9 (14:09):
Let me be clear, there is going to be a
mass deportation because we just finished a mass illegal immigration
crisis on the border. Or anybody can look at nine
out of ten people claim asylum at the border will
end up with the order removal. So you can't ask
for the right to claim asylum, the right to see
a judge, the right to do process, and we give
(14:30):
you that due process, and at the end of that
due process, a federal judge orders you removed. We have
to remove them because if we don't shut down immigration court,
those orders don't mean anything anymore. Take you guys off
the border because there's no consequences.
Speaker 3 (14:45):
Sounds serious to me.
Speaker 1 (14:47):
Ryan, I mean, he's like the perfectly cast Trump team
member there. But I don't know that I can ever
stop playing this one.
Speaker 9 (14:58):
Let me be clear, there is going to be a
mass deportation.
Speaker 3 (15:03):
Well, actually the one I was after is this one.
Speaker 5 (15:07):
I mean, in the Denver mayor, we agree on one thing.
He's willing to go to jail. I'm willing to put
him in jail.
Speaker 1 (15:13):
Let's start with something first. Okay, Mike Johnston is not
willing to go to jail, and so don't expect him
to ever end up in jail. I agree with the
mayor of Johnstown who just called the show, and I've
been saying it for a while, this craziness which is
at the expense of the people of Denver and the
people of Colorado, because it's obviously going to attract a
(15:34):
lot more illegal folks here. It is all about Mike
Johnston trying to become governor, and he can see what's happening.
He can see that it's slipping away from him. If
Joe Negose wants the nomination, Joe No Goose is going
to get the nomination. But Joe is, I would guess,
probably going to stay in Congress because they're betting they
can get the majority back in twenty six and that
(15:57):
he might then have a shot, might have a shot
at speaker. So but I think what Johnston sees in
Denver is wait a second, fill. Wiser seems to be
moving into the lead there, and so I think this is,
you know, strip naked, light yourself on fire, and then
just try to attract attention and money from the crazy
secular far left. And again, I know it's hard for
(16:20):
kind of saying people to understand, but the calculation of
all these these far left Democrats, whether you're talking Wiser, Johnston, Griswold, whatever,
is that as long as they win the primary, they're
going to win the general. In their mind, they cannot
lose the general. So they can go as far left
as they want to in a primary like far left
of far left of Kamala Harris far left and still
(16:42):
win the general. So that's their calculation. I think they're
taking a big risk there because they you're talking about
an open seat, they don't have Polus's pocketbook, and you're
talking about a Colorado that I think is much less
happy with illegal immigration now than it was before. Let's
go to Jack and Cheyenne. You're on the Dan Caplis.
Speaker 3 (17:04):
You'll welcome.
Speaker 10 (17:06):
Danny on two issues.
Speaker 8 (17:07):
I see two legal remedies that.
Speaker 10 (17:09):
Nobody is using. And I know why they're not using it,
because they're all gutless.
Speaker 8 (17:15):
I hate to put you in that camp right now.
I think you are. If this mayor in uh won't
cooperate with the federal government with respect to cleaning up
these illegals that are here illegally, all they have to
do is file a rid of mandamus and federal court
and it excuse me, Supreme Court in Colorado. And then
if if you prevail on that, and if the mayor's
(17:38):
order to come by with the Feds and he doesn't
do it, then he's in contempt of court.
Speaker 3 (17:43):
He Jack hald On a second, Jack, I missed the
gutless piece.
Speaker 1 (17:47):
You had me excited. So where's the part where I'm
being gutless.
Speaker 10 (17:52):
Because you're not filing a rid of mandamus and you're
not voting it.
Speaker 1 (17:55):
And then they're saying, okay, so let me get this straight, bit,
let me let me get this jack, check check check,
let me get this straight. Because I'm not willing to
do something goofy and legally frivolous.
Speaker 3 (18:07):
I'm gutless.
Speaker 7 (18:10):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (18:11):
So yeah, but but hold that thought, Jack, Yeah, because
that's Jack's definition of gutless unless you're willing to do
something goofy legally frivolous that would destroy your credibility. You're
now gutless. Fascinating. You're on the Dan Caplass Show.
Speaker 6 (18:28):
You're listening to the Dan Caplis Show podcast.
Speaker 3 (18:31):
Somebody Get Hurt. Packed there Courtney Love telling you that
you're gutless. She's agreeing apparently with Jack. Wow.
Speaker 1 (18:39):
Yeah, that the last caller who then the profiling courage
ran away during the break right to meg.
Speaker 6 (18:45):
Up, just like John F.
Speaker 3 (18:46):
Kennedy. Yeah, so he was John F.
Speaker 1 (18:48):
Kennedy was a profiling courage that he wrote the book,
right this guy? And I love Jack but but but yeah,
that' right, no great book, bestseller, Ye Jack.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Yeah. Jack calls up and says.
Speaker 1 (18:59):
I'm gutless because I refuse to file some frivolous legal
action that would seriously harm my credibility, etc.
Speaker 3 (19:10):
What mean you to do?
Speaker 1 (19:12):
I couldn't even comprehend it. It's some goofyesque thing you
must have seen on the internet somewhere. But the fact
he would call up and say that I'm gutless. Listen,
call me anything you want to, but one thing you
just know by definition is nobody who shows up here
every day for almost thirty years and opens the phone
lines up and tells Kelly, Hey, whenever you do up
in the line's up, Kelly, let anybody on who wants
(19:34):
to come on.
Speaker 3 (19:35):
You can't call that person gutless, right, because I mean,
who else does that?
Speaker 1 (19:40):
I mean, there are plenty of people who do more
courageous things, but people who do that aren't gutless. And yeah,
I mean think about all these politicians, right, and these
office holders who wouldn't dare do that for ten minutes.
And it's just one of the reasons why you see
this whole new breed a Democrat. We need to talk
(20:00):
more about that, because you got this whole new breed
of democrat, the Mike Johnston's, the Jared polis Is, the Bennett's,
the hick and loopers, who they had some skills in
the beginning, and they had some potential in the beginning,
but then they got truly gutless, and they wouldn't come
(20:20):
on a show like mine. Well, let's face it, people
and everybody's treated with respect. They wouldn't do that because
they were afraid they might make a mistake. They couldn't
back up their position, etc. So then they just became
kind of weak and flaccid. And when they try to
get out of the Colorado media bubble and go onto
the national scene, they just get destroyed because whatever skills
(20:44):
they once had are gone. Now contrast this new breed
of Colorado Democrat with the old guard. These were giants.
I mean, they were wrong on the big issues. I
just agreed with them on the wrong issues, but they
were giants. You compare a mere Web to a mayor Johnston.
Mayor Webb was a giant. He was a man's man.
(21:05):
You know, we had a disagreement, we'd come on Aaron,
we'd talk about it. If if you know, something got haywired,
he'd invite me to lunch and we'd sit down and he'd,
you know, he apologize one stuff like that. He is
a man's man, you know, big tough guy. And I
don't mean that in a gender sense. I just mean
he was a giant. You talk about some of the
other Democrats and again wrong on a lot of big issues,
(21:28):
but big people, big strong people. And I understand Gary
Hart had all that craziness and really made a huge
mistake there and everything else, but in plenty of other ways.
Gary Hart was a big timer monkey business. Yeah, not
so great, but in many ways he was a big timer.
Who are some of the other Democrat I mean, there
(21:49):
were so many big time Democrats who just got it
wrong on some big issues. Tim Worth, Yeah, wrong on
some big issues, but a big time god, big time human.
And there are many more of those. And the Democrats
a right now.
Speaker 3 (22:05):
They're so puny. They're so puny.
Speaker 1 (22:08):
They just hide behind this D plus nine thing they
have going on in Colorado. They hide behind the skirts
of the media. They hide behind their superior money. But
they're puny actors. Yeah, eight five five for zero five
eight two five five. So the natural question is, okay, Dan,
why can't there Republicans beat them?
Speaker 3 (22:27):
Well, who says they can't?
Speaker 1 (22:29):
I mean, I understand it's a mega uphill battle right
now because it is probably D plus nine and then
the media covering for the Democrats is worth another what
probably two or three hundred million per cycle, and then
they can print money because they all just crawl on
their hands and knees and beg these you know, billionaire
lefties who decide who wins in Colorado. Except for Polis
(22:52):
with his own almost billionaire money.
Speaker 3 (22:54):
But they're puny actors. Yeah, it's it's it's.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Sad for Colorado in a way, though, it's actually a
plus for Colorado because if you had big time lefties,
you know, big time actors like the Democrat A lot
of the Democrat officeholders used to be really strong, talented
people who could hold their own. Then they'd be doing
a lot more policy damage because they are big time.
(23:22):
These puny Democrat actors we have right now. Yeah, not fortunately,
they do a lot of damage, don't get me wrong,
but fortunately nowhere near the amount of damage they'd be
able to do if they were actually big time actors
like some of the earlier Democrats in Colorado. Now me,
I would much rather have some of the big timers
(23:42):
who were Republicans because we had some giants. We had
some Republican giants back in the day, you know, including
Bill Armstrong, Bill Owens. You know, we had some giants
and there were more than that. Jack in Cheyenne is back.
That's great news. How you doing check?
Speaker 10 (24:02):
You know, Danny, we've gone back a long time. But
you always control the conversation by hanging up on me.
It was just something that Mike Rosen would never done.
Speaker 3 (24:10):
Check when have I ever done off?
Speaker 1 (24:11):
You have got the gun?
Speaker 7 (24:13):
Check?
Speaker 3 (24:13):
When have I ever hung up on?
Speaker 10 (24:14):
You can't do it all the time?
Speaker 3 (24:17):
When's the when's the last time? Do you know?
Speaker 10 (24:20):
Do you know what the legal writ of Maine damis is?
Do you know how many times in hundreds of years
it's been used? And do you know what it's even
used for?
Speaker 8 (24:29):
I wonder where you went to law school?
Speaker 2 (24:31):
Yeah, Jack, you answer my question.
Speaker 1 (24:33):
Jack, you're assuming I went to law school. You don't
think maybe the last forty years?
Speaker 10 (24:38):
Just can't prove it from your show, I guess yeah.
Speaker 3 (24:41):
Yeah no.
Speaker 1 (24:41):
And Jeck, you know what's really cool is all these
big trials I've won.
Speaker 3 (24:47):
I wasn't even a lawyer. Yeah, it wasn't even a lawyer.
Speaker 1 (24:50):
All these big nobody ever said hey, Dan, can you
actually produce? So I won all these big trials without
even Dan a lawyer. I'm joking, by the way, if
you're thinking a high me, I'm joking.
Speaker 3 (25:00):
How hard is it?
Speaker 10 (25:01):
How hard is it to one the case against the
trucking company? When the jury panel is selected through board
here with everybody who hates trucks, It doesn't take a
lot of talent to do that, Danny.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
Oh check, Well, let me ask you about I trust
you heard this coming truck.
Speaker 10 (25:18):
Courtroom over a truck is that's what believe me.
Speaker 3 (25:21):
But let me ask you this, Jack, then, can you
explain why we have.
Speaker 1 (25:24):
What I still think I haven't checked the data today,
but I still think is the largest trucking jury verdict
in Colorado history?
Speaker 3 (25:30):
So why would I have that?
Speaker 7 (25:32):
If?
Speaker 3 (25:32):
If everybody else is just as good?
Speaker 10 (25:37):
Danny, it's easy to beat up trucks in court because
everybody in the jury panel hates trucks.
Speaker 3 (25:42):
I own a trucks.
Speaker 7 (25:43):
I know all about it.
Speaker 2 (25:46):
Let's not let's not talk about that.
Speaker 7 (25:48):
Let's not bring it up.
Speaker 3 (25:51):
Let's not talk about trucks.
Speaker 10 (25:52):
Okay, Danny, Let's let's get back to the contentious issues.
Speaker 8 (25:56):
Let's okay.
Speaker 2 (25:56):
The last time I talked to you about.
Speaker 10 (25:58):
Abortion, you have quated abortion with being murdered. How many
women that have had an abortion are you willing to
drag up into a courtroom and accuse him of murder?
Speaker 3 (26:07):
How many?
Speaker 2 (26:08):
Chick?
Speaker 7 (26:08):
First of all, if you're making.
Speaker 10 (26:09):
The equation and an abortion is the same thing as murder,
you said it was the last time we.
Speaker 2 (26:14):
Talked, check abortion is murder?
Speaker 10 (26:16):
How many women that have had an abortion are going
to go to jail for murder? Answer that question, Danny,
Are you okay?
Speaker 2 (26:22):
Check?
Speaker 3 (26:24):
Seriously, I'm finding it. I a little bit care about you.
I'm worried for you. Are you okay?
Speaker 10 (26:28):
No?
Speaker 3 (26:29):
You go.
Speaker 8 (26:29):
We've talked for thirty years.
Speaker 3 (26:31):
Yeah, and I'm worried about you right now.
Speaker 10 (26:33):
I'm probably ninety percent of your positions.
Speaker 2 (26:35):
I'm one hundred percent with you.
Speaker 10 (26:37):
Yeah, but I'm the ones that I'm not. You just
hang up on me because you never check, never hung
up intellectually with me.
Speaker 2 (26:44):
To do it all.
Speaker 3 (26:45):
I think everyone can see that joke.
Speaker 10 (26:47):
Jack, tell me about Maine damis and tell me how
many times that's been used in the last one hundred
and fifty two hundred years in order to make government
officials cooperate with the law. Tell me how many times
it's been used.
Speaker 1 (26:59):
Check Are you okay? And are you going to let
me talk? Because if you're not going to let me talk,
I will hang up on you. For the first time.
I want that on the record. But yeah, so.
Speaker 3 (27:08):
Can I talk?
Speaker 2 (27:09):
Jack?
Speaker 10 (27:09):
Go ahead, go ahead, okay.
Speaker 1 (27:11):
Thank you, okay, Jack? Yeah, thank you. I like Jack
a lot. I don't know what's going on today. Here's
the deal. I don't think i've ever hung up on
Jack in twenty five plus years.
Speaker 3 (27:22):
He's going to claim that you just say second.
Speaker 1 (27:24):
Second, He's just making stuff up. And when it comes
to abortion, I don't think there's been anybody on Life
on Air more pro life than me over the decades.
There are some really good, strong pro life people on air.
But but the point is, I don't That's not my argument.
I have never even once argued that, Okay, these women
(27:47):
who are getting a legal abortion are committing murder. I've
never argued that once because my mission is not to
vilify them. My mission is to save the innocent life.
And so my point has always been I don't blame
the woman who has the abortion. I think that I
(28:07):
know so many great, fantastic, tremendous women who had abortions,
and they are very often under a lot of pressure
from a lot of different sources. It can be a
guy who used them for sex and then took off.
It can be family, it can be all sorts of things.
They're under a lot of pressures, and then they're also
living in a country where it's not only legal, but
(28:29):
it's glorified and glamorized, so it's it doesn't change the outcome,
which is that an innocent human life is lost. But
I have never once on air in all these decades
said all women who have abortions are committing murder. What
I've talked about is a simple reality, that is the
taking of an innocent human life, just as a matter
of science, undeniably. My focus is on the politicians who
(28:54):
know that that what they're promoting is the taking of
innocent human life, and they do it so they can
get in key power. That that is a cold blooded
mass killing for personal gain. That's aimed at the politicians,
It's aimed at the so called doctors and others in
the medical profession who abuse their skills to go out
(29:14):
and commit mass killing for profit.
Speaker 3 (29:16):
That's where I'm focused.
Speaker 6 (29:20):
And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast Me in.
Speaker 5 (29:23):
The Denver Mayor. We agree on one thing. He's willing
to go to jail. I'm willing to put him in jail.
Speaker 3 (29:29):
Wow, Tom Homan.
Speaker 1 (29:31):
And I'm really glad he said that because Mike Johnston
has asked for it, coming out and first promising an insurrection,
using DPD to take on federal law enforcement, by the way,
many of whom are fellow Colorado's, and calling fifty thousand
into the streets to try to stop federal.
Speaker 3 (29:47):
Law enforcement from enforcing the law.
Speaker 1 (29:49):
Even though Johnston didn't say they've been, they'd be acting
illegally as a federal government. He just doesn't like the
law being enforced, so he's going to use the police
to stop law enforcement from enforcing the law. Yeah, it's
that bad. So Tom Mahoman, I'm glad you spoke up.
Mike Johnston will never risk going to jail. You know,
Mike Johnston's kid from Vail. I love Vail, and no
(30:11):
knock on him being from Vail, but yeah, jail in
his mind is when the snow's too crunchy, right, So yeah,
he's not going to put himself in a position to
go to jail. He's trying to put himself in a
position to become governor. And the more crazy far left
you are in that primary, probably the better chance you have.
But they all bet that no Republican can beat him
in a general and I think the crazier far left
(30:33):
they go, the better chance a Republican has so glad
you're here. Let's go to callers and some great text
coming in Wendy in Denver. You're on the dan Kapla show.
Speaker 3 (30:43):
Welcome.
Speaker 7 (30:45):
How you doing.
Speaker 3 (30:46):
I'm living the dream? How about you?
Speaker 2 (30:50):
I'm trying.
Speaker 7 (30:53):
No, it wasn't that long ago that this mayor he
was joined with the home problem, and then we have
the influx of the illegals, and he was like, we
can't handle this, we can't handle this. And then he
turns where I am and now he's ready to go
to fight, fight for and yeah, telling governors at one thing.
(31:16):
But I don't know, I might have misunderstood that. I
actually heard somebody that if he does go to jail
or something very un lawful, he could lose his job.
And I don't know if that's true.
Speaker 1 (31:28):
Yeah, you would be thinking about rand Paul's coming. Hey,
do you really appreciate the call Rand Paul had referred
to him being removed from office. I did not understand
that reference. Now, certainly, if somebody is violating the law,
interfering with federal law enforcement, committing an insurrection, they can
be properly prosecuted and jailed for that.
Speaker 3 (31:48):
But somehow being removed from the job.
Speaker 1 (31:51):
I didn't follow Rand Paul on that one. Yeah, and
listen with Mike Johnston. I hope people realize, I know
they do that. So what this tells you about him?
And it's the same with all these lefties. They don't
care at all about the people that they're supposed to
be serving, or Mike Johnson wouldn't be going out of
his way to attract literally every person in America illegally
(32:15):
right now to Denver, because that's what he's doing. It's
not that all will come, but they're going to hear
about it. Right when the mayor of a major city,
and by the way, one of the most beautiful places
God has created on Earth, says that he's going to
use the police to fight federal law enforcement to stop
them from enforcing immigration law. And he's calling fifty thousand
(32:36):
to the streets to protect and defend folks here illegally. Yeah,
folks here, illegally all over America are going to come
to Denver. Tony and Denver. You're on the Dan Kaplas show. Welcome, Hey, Tony.
Tony's the quiet Sword. But we'll get him back later
(32:57):
in the show. Eight five five zero five two five five.
Speaker 3 (33:01):
The number.
Speaker 1 (33:02):
Let's get to some text, Dan, Jack is mistaken. Ritz
of man damis are used all the time. Listen, riddaman
damis is just a court order and a government to
do something or stop doing something. So Jack was off
on some kakammi legal theory in my mind, and yeah,
we all have off days, Dan, monkey business. Did you
(33:23):
just describe Gary Heart's behavior as monkey business?
Speaker 8 (33:25):
Ha?
Speaker 1 (33:26):
Good one. That was the name of his yacht. The
point I was making at the time is how small
and puny the current Democrats in high office are in Colorado.
You know where there's Polist Bennett, Hickenloper Johnston. They're small,
they're puny. They won't come on shows like this, they
won't engage in a tough interview. They're scared of their
own shadow. And so the skills they once had they
(33:47):
then lose. And when they go out in a national
arena they get absolutely clobbered because they don't have those
skills anymore. They're too weak for the competition in a
national arena. I was contrasting it with Democrats before them, who,
while wrong on big issues, were giants like mayor web
For example, Gary Hart had his monkey business and that
was a big, big mistake, obviously, but in many other ways,
(34:10):
Gary Hart was a big timer. Tim Worth yeah wrong
on some major issues, but a big time guy, and
you could go right on.
Speaker 3 (34:18):
Down the list.
Speaker 1 (34:19):
There used to be a lot of big time, strong, smart,
tough Democrats who were not afraid of their shadow. They
weren't afraid of someone with different views, they weren't afraid
of tough questions, and they'd come on the show all
the time. This current breed they're just puny. You know,
they went office because Colorado's lefty state now, but they
(34:39):
never get anything meaningful done and they don't go beyond Colerad.
Speaker 3 (34:43):
You know, they're just small and what a sad waste
that is.
Speaker 1 (34:48):
But at least they don't do as much damage as
they would if they were bigger figures like there used
to be in the Democratic Party. Has some true giants
in the GOP as well. I think we're starting to
make a move back in that to direction for the
GOP when we come back. Do you think Mayor Johnston
will go to jail? Shitty, You're on the Dan Kapla Show.
