Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Dan Caples and welcome to today's online podcast
edition of The Dankplis 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. Oh, in the
American way is in better shape today because Donald J
is president. I mean, two pressers in the first twenty
(00:22):
four hours, both of them hilarious to varying degrees. But
we want to duck in. Ryan, is the President still talking?
I followed it right up until about four o'clock Mountain.
If he's still going, let's duck in.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
To me, like it's something that I would like.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
I'd like to see federal lands opened up for data centers.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
I think they're going to be very important.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Again, we have a lot of competition for that, so
it's an honor to have these three great people.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Great, great, thank you.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
We've got a little bit of a hum in that line,
so we're going to duck out of it right now.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
But I'll tell you this.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
As I was getting ready for the show down the stretch,
you know, I was watching it in the background, and
is this going to be this is going to be
a marvelous for years. First, it's going to be funny,
like in the middle of all this serious stuff. And
he's got some lefties in the press corps going after
him on the J six pardons.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
You know, Trump is he can make anything funny.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
Now, I'm not saying that Jay six stuff turned into
a laugh fest or anything, not at all. But you know,
he's talking about the California wildfires, you know, and he's
doing the weave and he goes off on this thing. Okay,
so they're not they're not turning the faucet to let
the water go into La because of the whatever smelt.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
And he said, how can the water hurt the smelt?
It's a fish, you know.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
I mean, the guy just he's hilarious. But he makes
all these great points at the same time. So going
to be a great four years. And my lord, what
about the contrast, right, just to have a president who
can talk and a president who's not afraid of his shadow,
and a president who just stands up there and leads.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
And is he going to be perfect? No?
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Only one, only one person to find as well, how
dever walks the face of the earth has been perfect.
The rest of us were all flawed, but boy, he
is great and it's just going to be a wonderful
four years ahead. Height five five for zero five eight
two five five the number text d A N five
seven seven thirty nine. So a stark contrast to President
(02:16):
Trump and his strength and his leadership would be what
we're stuck with here in Colorado, including lawless Mike Johnston,
the mayor of Denver. So we want to get the
latest to you on that, particularly since, as we said
at the time, right he has just made Denver and
Colorado a target for the administration. And you know, in
(02:38):
a lot of ways that's good in the sense that
we want to be the Trump administration's priority for getting
rid of criminal ilegals those here illegally you've committed other
serious crimes. Yeah, we want to be Numero uno on
that list. And you know, I guess we should credit
Mike Johnston for more than poking the bear, challenging the bear,
saying that he's going to use the Denver police to
(03:00):
essentially fight federal law enforcement at the border the county boarder,
and so anyway, I guess we should thank Johnston for
that to the extent it leads.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
To Colorado and Denver being.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
High on the list. We'll find out in the next
few days. But in other ways, as I said at
the time, how does this help the people of Denver
for Johnston to call out Trump and make him an
instant enemy. No, it doesn't. Johnston knew that. But Johnston
doesn't care about the people at Denver. He cares about
the far left billionaires whose support he's trying to line
(03:32):
up for his run for governor because he.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Believes, and he may be right, but he believes.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
That whatever lefty wins the Democratic primary is going to
win statewide.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
So it really.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Doesn't matter what the people of Colorado think of Mike
Johnston or any of his policies if he's the Democratic nominee,
and the Demos have proven you can buy the nomination.
Police proved that right when he steamrolled Kerry Kennedy, who
would have been our first female governor, a Democrat, and
just obliterated her, suffocated her with his money. And so
(04:04):
that's the game Johnston's playing. He couldn't care less about
the people of Denver, and he's proven it through his actions.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
So let's dive into some of the latest sound on that.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
But to fully appreciate his interview with Kyle Clark that
just happened. We have to look back for a second
cut Street. Please.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Trump's new boarders are.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
Tom Homan has said that he is willing to arrest
leaders like yourself for standing in the way of these
policies that they want to enact.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Would you be willing to go to jail for these things?
Speaker 5 (04:39):
Yeah, I'm not afraid of that, and I'm also not
seeking that. I think the goal is we want to
be able to negotiate with reasonable people how to solve
hard problems.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
You would encourage people to protest.
Speaker 5 (04:49):
I think we're going to look at every option. But yeah,
I don't think that there are You know, I talked
to some high school kids this week who were terrified
about this. I don't think those kids are going to
stand there and watch three of their classmates get pulled
out a history class with other twenty seven stand by
and do nothing. I don't think that's what Denveright's or
Americans would do in this context at all.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
What is your line where you say, yes, I support
these deportations and no I don't support these other ones.
Speaker 5 (05:12):
Yeah, I think our line is clear. We think if
you are a violent criminal that is committing serious crimes
like murder or rape in Denver, you should.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Be prosecuted to the folks end of the law and
you should be deported.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Oh so that's the line now, murder or rape. Right.
If Mike Johnston had the courage to come on, well,
then we could ask him the questions, where do you
draw that line, Mike Johnston? And but he won't, of course,
because he doesn't have good answers. But what I want
to know, Ryan, is how does a human ever get
to the point where the truth just doesn't matter to them?
(05:47):
And clearly Johnston is at that point in many ways
where he tries to turn Trump's program, which vast majority
of American support, of deporting those here illegally committed the
Trumps crimes, tries to get people to believe that, know,
what Trump really intends to do is come and pull
kids out of classrooms, kids who've done nothing else wrong.
(06:09):
I mean so, but it's the reality of the modern left,
and it's one of the reasons that they're losing, and
they're losing lots of places, and eventually they.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
Will lose here.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
It's just going to take longer. They just lie, They
just lie at every turn. So let's get to the
latest with with Johnston.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Cut for please.
Speaker 5 (06:29):
Well, abide by state and local law and we or
clearly by federal law, and so that'll continue to be true.
We just won't do federal law enforcements job for them,
and we won't help support their effort to kind of
bring tarrt communities if they are trying to read schools
or hospitals troches.
Speaker 6 (06:44):
And currently the courts have upheld that view that you're
under no obligation to enforce federal law. Right, all hell
would break loose if cultural the other way.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Yes, I think you would find wides by resistance to that.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Wait a second, and we've got to play that over
again and again. As the son of a thirty year cop,
I really take very personally, and everybody who supports law
enforcement should deeply be deeply angry with Mike Johnston for
his recklessness when it comes to the lives of law
enforcement officers. And this goes back to when he pranced
(07:16):
around the national stage just bellowing for anybody you would
hear that he was going to make the Denver cops
go out to the county line and take on the
Feds as they came in to deport people. Well, first
of all, he's got to know he's got a lot
of bad ideas, but he's a smart guy, so he
has to know when he talks about law enforcement as
the enemy like that, federal law enforcement, he is putting
(07:39):
a target on their back. And Mike Johnston has got
to know there are a lot of nut jobs out there,
a lot of nut jobs out there who the mayor
of Denver is green lighting with that kind of talk
police officers as our enemy. And he just did it
again when he talks about federal law enforcement if they
come in to try to terrorize that kind of thing.
(07:59):
So what you there is a snobby little lefty who
doesn't give a damn about the lives of police officers
and he views them as lesser and he's willing to
do things like that. I mean, where do you ever
get this view of other human life as being so
throwaway where you would get to the point where you
would go down to the mall where they had barely
(08:20):
cleaned up the blood of the flight of ten and
whoit her throat slit in the thirty four year old
stab to death and the two others butchered and you'd
go down there and prance around into clare victory. How
do you ever get to that point? And remember we
had the dad of one of those victims on the show.
He said he hadn't heard from the mare at all.
How does a person ever get to that point? But
(08:41):
that's the reality of Mike Johnston right now, A five
five for zero five eight two five five the number
Dan five seven seven three nine.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
Here's the good news. Here's the good news.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
He is hurting his own cause, not just his own
cause politically. I think he has plummeted in terms of
his political price aspects. But but he is hurting the
far left costs and he is helping Trump's cause, which
is America's cause because guess what, a strong majority of
Americans agree with him on these policies.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
So that's the good news.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
The bad news is, in the meantime, he's he's turning
some people against law enforcement. He is green lighting violent
psychos against law enforcement, and he's putting law enforcement in
more danger. You're on the Dan Caplass.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Show, and now back to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
Speaker 7 (09:42):
If I may take the liberty for just fifteen seconds
to say something in Spanish, because I know a lot
of people back home would be very proud, and I
want to make sure I acknowledge that I get a
lot of adios.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
I mean, if I'm Alio finish, I mean, if I'm.
Speaker 7 (09:58):
Sent to in quenty, says a Trump. I just said,
(10:19):
I saved a munch of money by switching the.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
Guy com That's what I said.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
That's great, that's great.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
I mean, think about the difference the day makes.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
And I know it's a long time in the making,
and and Trump and his team haven't essentially been been
leading the world since he got elected, But what a
difference a day makes. I mean, We've had this Secretary
of State who is just the patsy for evil in
the world, and and now we have Marco Rubio, who
you know, had been my favorite for president for a
(10:49):
long time. Obviously, when Trump won that nomination, supported Trump,
and Trump turned into a better president and a better
force for life life and a protector of innocent life.
Then I think Marco Rubio could have been at that time,
or anybody else could have been at that time, and.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
President Trump ended up being in my view.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Better for the country long term than it would have
been if Marco Rubio had been elected at that time,
because Trump gave birth to this movement, and it's a
movement that has transformed the GOP in a very positive
and lasting way. And so while I think Rubio would
have had a successful two term presidency, I don't think
(11:34):
it would have had as much long term impact as Trump.
But now I do believe Marco Rubio will be president someday.
I'm not saying he'll win in twenty eight.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
I think JD. Van says the inside track there.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
But Ryan, I'm sure you've thought about this, probably you
know during the hours you waited outside the Capitol Wan
Arena yesterday, so you could serve our audience so well
by being in there for that bit of history. But
think about it the primary that's going to start in
twenty six, think about all the talent on the GOP side.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
You know, JD.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Vance, the inside track, You're gonna have Marco Rubio, You've
got all these other stars out there, And it's just
one of the reasons I'm really excited about the future.
Nothing's guaranteed, right except God wins in the end. But
I'm very, very excited about the future of the country
because I think the GOP is just pipelined all this
great talent. Trump is like this big icebreaker, just changing
(12:32):
the landscape long term if the GOP takes advantage of it.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
I like the way that sets up.
Speaker 8 (12:38):
The talent on our side of the isle, Dan, it's
just stark in contrast to whatever the Left is going
to try.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
To conjure up. And you'd mentioned two of them. Marco
Rubio will have served as Secretary of State.
Speaker 8 (12:50):
That's one of the highest level positions you can have
in the cabinet for the president, and he's been the
Senator from Florida for so many years. You've got Senator
Ted Cruz, you got jdva is the current vice president,
who's going to be well positioned to carry on.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
The Trump legacy.
Speaker 8 (13:04):
Might get Trump's endorsement, which would be enormous. You would
think Governor Ron DeSantis in Florida, perhaps Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders,
who was remarkable in her comments at Capitol One Arena
just yesterday.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
The governor of Arkansas will have served true terms.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
So boy, you're still on that Huckaby kick.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
And hey, she's great, But I mean, realistically, my friend,
you know, the list probably stops with fans and DeSantis
and Rubio.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Right, I mean, and there's so much more talent there.
But Ted Cruz, but boy, Ted Cruz awesome. I've been
so impressed with him.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
But what about by way, It's a nice problem to have, right,
If you're on the Democrat side, what are you talking
about right now? You're talking about which scrap stinks less?
Speaker 3 (13:52):
Well, you know what?
Speaker 1 (13:53):
And on the GOP side you have this abundance of riches.
And I think Rubio, just like Trump, is going to
be I think, an even better president in his second
term because it's staggered than if it had been consecutive.
I think Rubio he is going to be a far
better president for not having been elected in sixteen and
having these other experiences.
Speaker 8 (14:14):
First, it'll be fascinating, and we're projecting forward here, but
you know, you got to take a snapshot of what
it's going to look like in twenty twenty eight and
can Rubio do better? Can he approve upon his performance
that we saw in twenty sixteen, where I think admittedly,
even though he was my first choice too, Dan yours
and mine, he was green politically, I don't think he
could handle himself or think on his feet as quickly.
(14:35):
Chris Christie kind of took him out at that debate
right before New Hampshire, so he would need to fine
tune kind of his presentation.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
I think he's already done that in large degree.
Speaker 8 (14:44):
But there's another guy that I think he's going to
be in the mix and in the conversation, and that's.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Representative Byron Donald's from Floorda.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
Yeah, yeah, another big stuff, talented, uber talented.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
But now you're starting to get into the VP stuff, right,
and listen, I know we may have no audience left
two minutes from now if we start talking about the
twenty eighth cycle. I started it my bad. All I'm
saying is that the country is better off that Trump
became president instead of Rubio, and that Rubio is going
to be a great president and even better for all
(15:15):
of these experiences. That's all I'm saying. But then you
bring it back to Colorado, right, and it contrasts with
what we open the show with, which is this dangerous,
deceptive lunacy from lawless Mike Johnston, the mayor of Denver,
where he continues to put targets on the back of
law enforcement, but by now talking about federal law enforcement
(15:37):
officers coming in and terrorizing in Colorado, which is a
total lie, totally false.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
And he knows it.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
But he's not only become lawless, Mike, he's become shameless, Mike.
And you know, if it was just the normal lefty stuff,
who cares. You know, he's irrelevant, just like all these
lefties in Colorado are irrelevant right now. They're not going
anywhere nationally. Yeah, they're relevant in terms of the harm
they cause in the state, but right now, you know,
if it wasn't this lefty, it'd be some other lefty
(16:06):
holding these statewide offices. Colorado is getting there, but it
hasn't made that change yet. But Johnston becomes much more
dangerous than the others because of the way he's targeting
law enforcement and speaking of them as the enemy, as invaders,
as terrorizers in an era where he knows you've got
(16:26):
these lunatics out there looking to take out law enforcement.
So that's what makes him so dangerous. The rest of them, yeah,
they do a lot of bad things, but right now
the state's just controlled by lefties. But as you look
at all that talent, and Ryan, I'm sure you had
a lot of time to ponder it yesterday at the
Capitol Center and then I'll get to text in the
next segment. But Colorado, okay, Colorado. You know we're blessed
(16:51):
with all this national talent. We know we've got a
lot of great GOP talent in Colorado.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
But who is in a.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Position if anyone now to break through as we look
at these state wide races in twenty six and twenty eight.
So we'd love to get your take on that as well.
Eight five five four zero five eight two five five.
I know Ryan's thought a lot about it. You can
text Dan da n five seven seven three nine.
Speaker 8 (17:16):
Well, we do think so that Scott Bottoms is announcing
his candidacy for the GOP primary for governor Dan so he.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Is, Oh, I didn't know anybody he'd announced.
Speaker 3 (17:26):
Yep, he will fill us in give give.
Speaker 9 (17:28):
Us my father.
Speaker 8 (17:29):
I'm just observing what I've seen on social media from
the state representative. He's a pretty strong conservative and that
may be difficult needle to thread for him here in Colorado.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Well, wonderful, Let's get him on the show. Let's get
any of these folks to announce all the show and yeah, yeah,
because you would expect that people will start announcing about now.
Some other people make it in mid year, some may
wait a little bit later, But yeah, I would expect
we'll start to hear some of that right now. Can Colorado?
(18:01):
Can Colorado be saved short term? Can anybody win statewide
in this state? So we'll throw that out there for discussion.
It's not our main focus. Our main focus is how
cool is it right now to be living through this
history together, all the great things that are happening because
of Trump's victory.
Speaker 3 (18:18):
So we'll come back so we'll have some.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
More of that hot sound of the day and what
comes next in Colorado. In terms of immigration raids, you're
on the Dan Caplis Show.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
You're listening to the Dan Kapliss Show podcast.
Speaker 6 (18:39):
Democratic Governor Jared Poula says that he welcomes the Trump
administration's assistance in removing people from our community who are
here legally and have committed crimes.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
Do you also welcome that help? Yeah.
Speaker 5 (18:48):
We will partner on violent criminals as we have always
done in the past.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
Mstian, we will do it again.
Speaker 5 (18:54):
We don't want criminals of any of you have round
on our streets, and that's been clear for us.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Consistently that is is simply not true. Wow.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Wow.
Speaker 8 (19:05):
Another anyway, Dan, that you said, I really want you
to build on this point because I think it's an
important one, and I hadn't even pointed that out when
I went through and edited these with Mayor Mike Johnston.
He cited the extreme examples of murder and rape.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Yeah, support those.
Speaker 8 (19:19):
Two, but there are a lot of other violent crimes,
roperty crimes, auto thefts.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Those are okay for Mike Johnson, apparently all.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Sorts of those crimes. And by the way, in the past,
show us on the record, Mayor Johnston, where you have
and where your administration has assisted ICE and identifying these
these violent criminals and helped ICE get rid of them.
Speaker 9 (19:42):
No.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Obviously, what police in Johnston see is that the tide
has turned nationally and so now they're switching positions in
my view, you know, to try to avoid getting wiped
out politically. So where were they can anybody find where
they were saying these things before? I'm not saying they
didn't whisper it out of the side of their mouth
at some Kawana's club, which is wonderful, by the way,
(20:04):
But where have they been out there leading on this
before or saying that before in any kind of meaningful way.
I would love to see that. No, and Ryan, to
your point, remember this show led the way when Jared
Polis I mean, I remember the State of the State address,
what was it two three years ago for maybe, where
(20:24):
Jared Poulus gets up there and he's featuring this big,
top priority bill from the Democrats that is going to
legalize a lot of different violent crime in Colorado. It's
going to legalize sexual crimes in Colorado if they're committed
in our public schools. Remember all that, And so this
was Polis's and the Democrats. This was their nirvana. And
(20:48):
because they believed that, you know, by enforcing these laws
against violent crimes and sexual crimes in our schools, that
it was causing too many of color to go to jail.
So they were just all of the sudden essentially going
to legalize all those crimes. And then our show led
(21:08):
the charge against that, and others got on board and
together and there was a lot of effort from a
lot of sources.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Together we were.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Able to kill that bill, which was a top priority
bill for the Democrats. The relevance here is, Yeah, when
Johnston says something like, oh, yeah, we'll support Trump and
getting rid of people here illegally who've committed rape and murder.
That seems to be where he draws the line. You know, well,
at first, why hasn't he been doing that the way
he should have been and doing more of it?
Speaker 3 (21:38):
But but what other crimes?
Speaker 1 (21:40):
Yeah, but he won't come on air to have that
conversation and the left won't push him on that. So
another reason that Trump won. Right, let me get to
some of these texts as well. But the rubber's about
to meet the road on this, and so Trump's going
to get his way, and Polus and Johnston all these
other tough talkers. You know, you really think they're going
(22:02):
to be willing to go to jail.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
No they aren't.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
So Trump is going to get his way, so right now,
because America wants him to get his way, and he
should get his way.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
We should be getting.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
Rid of folks here illegally who are committing other serious crimes.
And I know, listen, I'm about to get to a
lot of these texts. You're going to have a lot
of people saying, don't stop there, Dan. You know, everybody
here illegally should be deported, So hey, let's have that
conversation as well. I know there are a lot of
people who believe that. First of all, I don't think
(22:31):
there's any realistic chance of that happening under any administration,
which shouldn't stop folks from talking about whether they want
that to be true. I think that if Trump can
achieve what Trump is setting out to achieve here, it's
going to be one of the greatest contributions in the
history of this nation. It's going to be a great
contribution to everybody here legally, it's going to be a
(22:53):
great contribution to everybody here illegally. And then the question becomes,
do you expect this administration or some future administration to
deport everybody here illegally? And is that what you want?
Let me get to some of these texts day five
to five or zero five A two five five, The
number will start with Brian here on the Dan kaplis
sholl welcome, Brian.
Speaker 9 (23:15):
Hey, Brian Hey, Dan. I think he read that writing
on the wall.
Speaker 10 (23:19):
Holman said, Look, you can either give me your criminals
out of jail, or I can go into the neighborhood.
And a lot of people are going to get swept
up in it, because if you're here illegally, you're going
whether you're a criminal or not. So I think you
kind of got the message on that.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
But let me ask you, Brian, do you think you
I got to ask you a question on that. Do
you think that Holman is saying that the administration is
going to stop with the criminals who are in Denver
and other jails.
Speaker 3 (23:47):
I don't think Colman's saying that at all.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
I expect for very shortly going to see a lot
of rates on people been adjudicated.
Speaker 9 (23:54):
So yeah, so he's not going to stop there, but
they're going to start with the obviously the violent criminals,
so everybody can be the difference. But if you have
to go into the neighborhoods, then there's gonna be a
lot of people.
Speaker 11 (24:05):
You might have a construction guy, which I deal with
a lot of them, who might be up in you know,
theil or something building these million dollar homes that might
get caught up into who's never committed a crime in
his life.
Speaker 9 (24:18):
So it's gonna, you know, it's going to backfire. I
think they're kind of getting the idea that this whole
thing is going to backfire. So we're going to kind
of cooperate with them, with the criminals. I think they
came to that realization because unlike the other administration, now
we got people that are actually serious, which is a
great relief. I mean, watching the last two days, it's
(24:39):
just it's it's amazing, excite and to see what we're
going through. We're going through probably the most historical time
in the United States of America in my.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Opinion, well certainly in our lifetimes. Brian, appreciate the call.
Thank you for that. No, it's amazing. And when I
start a lot of shows with let the celebration continue. Yes,
for that reason. I mean, this is this may end
up being one of the major tipping point moments in
American history. Let's get to some text here. By the way,
I respectfully disagree with Brian. I do think that the
(25:08):
administration is and should is going to go into neighborhoods,
is going to go into the street and is going
to pick up people here illegally who have committed other
violent crimes, other serious crimes. I don't think it's going
to be limited to people in jails. Dan, Let's says
a Texter. Let's not let the perfect be the enemy
(25:30):
of the good. As for how the chess pieces look
two years from now, yeah, Hey, I've always been a
believer in that premise because there isn't a lot out
there that's perfect right now, including potential candidates. Dan, this
may be the time to get Colorado back. With Trump
in office and these lunatics like MJ behaving so ridiculous,
(25:51):
maybe Colorado residents will realize blue states are ridiculous and
will decline and eventually fail. Role model is California. Texter
may well be right. I personally think it's going to
take a combination of the awfulness of the lefties in
power in Colorado, with some really attractive GOP candidates, very
well run campaigns, some luck, etc. We know the money,
(26:14):
the big money is not going to be there for
probably any of the GOP candidates in the beginning. It
might come in later if it looks like they have
a chance to win. And so I think it's going
to take that combination because Colorado, think about it, We've
been blessed with one of literally the greatest places in
the world, and the left will completely ruin it eventually.
You can see that in progress right now. But because
(26:37):
our starting point is so high with all of these
blessings we have, it takes the left longer to ruin it.
So we won't get to that point where they just
throw out the left because the place is so trashed
until further down the road, and lord knows, we don't
want to get to that point.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
So that's why I think it's going to take that combo.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Of this horrible garbage from the left combined with some
great GOP candidates. Dan, can you please interpret what you
know the measures that will be taken with the deportation
policy as President Trump has mandated to be done, including
what I've recently heard about birthright citizenship.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
Always a great show rip, Thank.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
You, Rick. Yes, And as you may have heard, a
bunch of attorney generals now predictably understandably have gone to
court to try to block Trump's executive action against birthright citizenship.
This was always going to be headed toward a major
showdown in the US Supreme Court. I think it does
need to go to the US Supreme Court. And I
(27:35):
don't think the I don't think the nation, the founder
certainly ever envisioned birthright citizenship turning into what it has
turned into today.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
So yeah, I think that's.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Going to be one of the next enormous US Supreme
Court battles. How long it takes to percolate up through
the federal court system.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
And get to Scotus.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
You know, that's what we're about to find out together, Dan,
I love when I wake up in the morning and
Donald Trump is president.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
Hey, I get you. I feel the same way.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
And part of it is the biggest part is policy, obviously,
and you know I want to get to the pardoning
of pro the pro lifers who are wrongfully imprisoned and
arrested as well. Part of it. The biggest part is policy.
The other part is the guy's hilarious and you can
be proud of him as president. You know, every now
and then he colors outside the lines. But you've got strength,
(28:27):
he's intelligent, he's unafraid. It's it's just a one eighty right,
and I'm enjoying every minute of it.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
Right now, you're on the Dan Kapla Show.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
And now back to the Dan Kapla Show podcast. Usual letter.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
He may have I don't know, oh.
Speaker 5 (29:02):
It, occupator, it could have been years.
Speaker 10 (29:07):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
Maybe we should all read it together. Well, maybe I'll
read it first and then make that determined. Peter, thank
you very much. I may not have seen this for months.
Help did I left two one in the desk? He's like, well,
stuff like that.
Speaker 1 (29:31):
Right, It's just so cool, and it's it's so comforting,
I know, in its own way. It's also just really
good for the country because, no matter what you think
of the policy, I obviously love a lot of his policies,
you've got somebody who's functional, somebody who's smart, somebody who
can sit there and do two things at once, and
(29:51):
it just brings you back to and I don't think
the country is going to forget the way that the left,
including much of the media, was was part of this
cover up of the fact that we had a president
who could not function.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
And so I hope this nation.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
Never forgives the left and always holds it against the
left and the media, you know, at the ballot box,
because not not a any kind of spite, but just
self survival of the nation. They revealed themselves not just
in that moment, because any of us can do something
goofy in one moment, right, that's not a character or
just kind of.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Wild or whatever.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
But you're talking about day after day, month after month,
year after year of this active deception of the American
people of the fact we did not have a functional
president and the grave danger that put our country in.
By the way, the reason Ryan bumped back with woo
woot is I was emailing during a break with my
office and I just had a great.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
Victory, Thank you God.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
And so one of the paralegals was texting woot and
I was looking for the origin, because now, you know,
when great things happen, people go or you make a
long pot or whatever, and so I was trying to
figure out where they came from. And Ryan, I see
two explanations. One is the song you just played nineteen
ninety three, woot, there it is. And the other competing
(31:11):
explanation adopted by many is a boy scout troupe in
Minnesota in two thousand and four. The leader's name was
Mike Wooten. Instead the boys would say woot woot. So
which do you think it is?
Speaker 8 (31:25):
Well, I've having a difficulty here, Dan, I'll play the
other one because I'm confused.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
There is one song.
Speaker 8 (31:31):
The one I just played is actually whoomp, whoomp exclamation
mark there it is by Tag Team. But that's but no,
you heard the song. That's the one we associate with
what you were asking for. However, it's a big however
here ninety five South, I got to look like where
this came from and when it came from does have
a titled track called Woot whoot? What you're saying there
(31:55):
it is woot There it is one is woom there
it is the p and woot.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
With a tea there it is yeah. Yeah, so I'm
really confused right now.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
It's yeah, it's everybody knows it's WoT. Let me get
to some texts. We'll get to calls as well. Dan
Lovepeter Dousey that's from Alexa. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (32:14):
No, he does a great job. Dan.
Speaker 1 (32:16):
Do you think ice officers should be allowed to enter
churches or elementary schools to make an arrest? I would
be interested to hear your interpretation of sensitive location. I
think this is easy. You should be able to go
anywhere where you would be going if you are pursuing
anybody else who had violated the law. You know, like
I know a texture to your show. Earlier, Ryan had
(32:37):
made the point, Well, wait a second, does that mean
you know under you know lawless? Mike Johnston's worldview that
if somebody knocks off a seven to eleven, their first
stop should be an elementary school. God forbid, Please don't
do that any criminal or a church, because then they'll
have sanctuary. No I. So yes, law enforcements should be
(32:58):
able to go anywhere in pursuit of any kind of
dangerous criminal. You know, if you're talking about a situation
which we're not talking about now because Trump is not
doing this, but if you're talking about a situation where
somebody was here illegally, otherwise law abiding citizen, etc. Wasn't
end under any existing court order to leave. You know,
(33:21):
should somebody be following somebody into a church for that person,
no I.
Speaker 3 (33:27):
To see that.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
But if you're talking about somebody here illegally who's committed
some other crime, you follow them.
Speaker 3 (33:32):
To wherever they are and you get them the hell
out of here. Hey, five to five?
Speaker 1 (33:35):
Was there A five?
Speaker 3 (33:36):
A two five?
Speaker 1 (33:37):
Five? I slept very well last night. Glad the circus
is out of the White House. Interesting, that's part of it, right,
because obviously, and it's almost divine intervention, that worst didn't
happen in this country, thoughing awful lot of bad stuff
did when we did not have a president for all
that time.
Speaker 3 (33:53):
But to me that the greater joy comes from.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
The positive side of this we do have in there
now and all the good that's going to come from that.
Speaker 3 (34:06):
Let's see.
Speaker 1 (34:09):
You know what's so interesting me, Ryan, I'm sure you've
seen a few of these texts come in that you've got.
I don't know if it's a group of Texters, are
just one who apparently thinks I'm an idiot, and they
write this stuff that's so racist and so extreme, but
they kind of soft pedal it, and they just expect
I'm going to go read that believing that people will
(34:31):
think that represents people in my audience, when I would
bet you everything I own that's some lefty somewhere who
has this cartoonish character in his mind for a conservative.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
But I had a similar earlier today.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
I'm dumb enough to read that stuff, you know.
Speaker 8 (34:50):
And so there's two possible paths you can take here,
well three. I guess you could just ignore it and
not read it. But you could read it and out
this person and shame them. And that's what I earlier
with kind of a similar one. I think I know
the one you're talking about here. I won't read it.
Or we can just block that number on the text line.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Whoa, we don't block numbers.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
Hey, that's part of the pride of this right.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
I mean, you know, forty years on air, we don't
prevent anybody from calin. We don't block now. I mean,
you got to do whatever you want to do on
your show, which is a superb show by the way.
But yeah, no, I don't want to block anybody like that.
I do want to get to this text when I
come back, Dan, so for being president of law and order,
Trump immediately pardoned the criminals of J six is the
(35:32):
way the Texter put it. Let me get into those
pardons and then Trump's explanation today. I want to also
get into this so called wolk minister who lectured Trump
at the National Prayer Service and why she's actually hurting
her far left Cause you're on the Dan Kapla show.
This is Dan Caples and welcome to today's online podcast
edition of The Dankplis 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. Oh, in the
American way is in better shape today because Donald J
is president. I mean, two pressers in the first twenty
(00:22):
four hours, both of them hilarious to varying degrees. But
we want to duck in. Ryan, is the President still talking?
I followed it right up until about four o'clock Mountain.
If he's still going, let's duck in.
Speaker 2 (00:34):
To me, like it's something that I would like.
Speaker 1 (00:35):
I'd like to see federal lands opened up for data centers.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
I think they're going to be very important.
Speaker 1 (00:39):
Again, we have a lot of competition for that, so
it's an honor to have these three great people.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Great, great, thank you.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
We've got a little bit of a hum in that line,
so we're going to duck out of it right now.
Speaker 3 (00:50):
But I'll tell you this.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
As I was getting ready for the show down the stretch,
you know, I was watching it in the background, and
is this going to be this is going to be
a marvelous for years. First, it's going to be funny,
like in the middle of all this serious stuff. And
he's got some lefties in the press corps going after
him on the J six pardons.
Speaker 3 (01:10):
You know, Trump is he can make anything funny.
Speaker 1 (01:13):
Now, I'm not saying that Jay six stuff turned into
a laugh fest or anything, not at all. But you know,
he's talking about the California wildfires, you know, and he's
doing the weave and he goes off on this thing. Okay,
so they're not they're not turning the faucet to let
the water go into La because of the whatever smelt.
Speaker 3 (01:32):
And he said, how can the water hurt the smelt?
It's a fish, you know.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
I mean, the guy just he's hilarious. But he makes
all these great points at the same time. So going
to be a great four years. And my lord, what
about the contrast, right, just to have a president who
can talk and a president who's not afraid of his shadow,
and a president who just stands up there and leads.
Speaker 3 (01:53):
And is he going to be perfect? No?
Speaker 1 (01:55):
Only one, only one person to find as well, how
dever walks the face of the earth has been perfect.
The rest of us were all flawed, but boy, he
is great and it's just going to be a wonderful
four years ahead. Height five five for zero five eight
two five five the number text d A N five
seven seven thirty nine. So a stark contrast to President
(02:16):
Trump and his strength and his leadership would be what
we're stuck with here in Colorado, including lawless Mike Johnston,
the mayor of Denver. So we want to get the
latest to you on that, particularly since, as we said
at the time, right he has just made Denver and
Colorado a target for the administration. And you know, in
(02:38):
a lot of ways that's good in the sense that
we want to be the Trump administration's priority for getting
rid of criminal ilegals those here illegally you've committed other
serious crimes. Yeah, we want to be Numero uno on
that list. And you know, I guess we should credit
Mike Johnston for more than poking the bear, challenging the bear,
saying that he's going to use the Denver police to
(03:00):
essentially fight federal law enforcement at the border the county boarder,
and so anyway, I guess we should thank Johnston for
that to the extent it leads.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
To Colorado and Denver being.
Speaker 1 (03:12):
High on the list. We'll find out in the next
few days. But in other ways, as I said at
the time, how does this help the people of Denver
for Johnston to call out Trump and make him an
instant enemy. No, it doesn't. Johnston knew that. But Johnston
doesn't care about the people at Denver. He cares about
the far left billionaires whose support he's trying to line
(03:32):
up for his run for governor because he.
Speaker 3 (03:34):
Believes, and he may be right, but he believes.
Speaker 1 (03:37):
That whatever lefty wins the Democratic primary is going to
win statewide.
Speaker 3 (03:41):
So it really.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Doesn't matter what the people of Colorado think of Mike
Johnston or any of his policies if he's the Democratic nominee,
and the Demos have proven you can buy the nomination.
Police proved that right when he steamrolled Kerry Kennedy, who
would have been our first female governor, a Democrat, and
just obliterated her, suffocated her with his money. And so
(04:04):
that's the game Johnston's playing. He couldn't care less about
the people of Denver, and he's proven it through his actions.
Speaker 3 (04:10):
So let's dive into some of the latest sound on that.
Speaker 1 (04:13):
But to fully appreciate his interview with Kyle Clark that
just happened. We have to look back for a second
cut Street. Please.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Trump's new boarders are.
Speaker 4 (04:26):
Tom Homan has said that he is willing to arrest
leaders like yourself for standing in the way of these
policies that they want to enact.
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Would you be willing to go to jail for these things?
Speaker 5 (04:39):
Yeah, I'm not afraid of that, and I'm also not
seeking that. I think the goal is we want to
be able to negotiate with reasonable people how to solve
hard problems.
Speaker 2 (04:47):
You would encourage people to protest.
Speaker 5 (04:49):
I think we're going to look at every option. But yeah,
I don't think that there are You know, I talked
to some high school kids this week who were terrified
about this. I don't think those kids are going to
stand there and watch three of their classmates get pulled
out a history class with other twenty seven stand by
and do nothing. I don't think that's what Denveright's or
Americans would do in this context at all.
Speaker 4 (05:06):
What is your line where you say, yes, I support
these deportations and no I don't support these other ones.
Speaker 5 (05:12):
Yeah, I think our line is clear. We think if
you are a violent criminal that is committing serious crimes
like murder or rape in Denver, you should.
Speaker 3 (05:20):
Be prosecuted to the folks end of the law and
you should be deported.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Oh so that's the line now, murder or rape. Right.
If Mike Johnston had the courage to come on, well,
then we could ask him the questions, where do you
draw that line, Mike Johnston? And but he won't, of course,
because he doesn't have good answers. But what I want
to know, Ryan, is how does a human ever get
to the point where the truth just doesn't matter to them?
(05:47):
And clearly Johnston is at that point in many ways
where he tries to turn Trump's program, which vast majority
of American support, of deporting those here illegally committed the
Trumps crimes, tries to get people to believe that, know,
what Trump really intends to do is come and pull
kids out of classrooms, kids who've done nothing else wrong.
(06:09):
I mean so, but it's the reality of the modern left,
and it's one of the reasons that they're losing, and
they're losing lots of places, and eventually they.
Speaker 3 (06:17):
Will lose here.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
It's just going to take longer. They just lie, They
just lie at every turn. So let's get to the
latest with with Johnston.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
Cut for please.
Speaker 5 (06:29):
Well, abide by state and local law and we or
clearly by federal law, and so that'll continue to be true.
We just won't do federal law enforcements job for them,
and we won't help support their effort to kind of
bring tarrt communities if they are trying to read schools
or hospitals troches.
Speaker 6 (06:44):
And currently the courts have upheld that view that you're
under no obligation to enforce federal law. Right, all hell
would break loose if cultural the other way.
Speaker 3 (06:52):
Yes, I think you would find wides by resistance to that.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
Wait a second, and we've got to play that over
again and again. As the son of a thirty year cop,
I really take very personally, and everybody who supports law
enforcement should deeply be deeply angry with Mike Johnston for
his recklessness when it comes to the lives of law
enforcement officers. And this goes back to when he pranced
(07:16):
around the national stage just bellowing for anybody you would
hear that he was going to make the Denver cops
go out to the county line and take on the
Feds as they came in to deport people. Well, first
of all, he's got to know he's got a lot
of bad ideas, but he's a smart guy, so he
has to know when he talks about law enforcement as
the enemy like that, federal law enforcement, he is putting
(07:39):
a target on their back. And Mike Johnston has got
to know there are a lot of nut jobs out there,
a lot of nut jobs out there who the mayor
of Denver is green lighting with that kind of talk
police officers as our enemy. And he just did it
again when he talks about federal law enforcement if they
come in to try to terrorize that kind of thing.
(07:59):
So what you there is a snobby little lefty who
doesn't give a damn about the lives of police officers
and he views them as lesser and he's willing to
do things like that. I mean, where do you ever
get this view of other human life as being so
throwaway where you would get to the point where you
would go down to the mall where they had barely
(08:20):
cleaned up the blood of the flight of ten and
whoit her throat slit in the thirty four year old
stab to death and the two others butchered and you'd
go down there and prance around into clare victory. How
do you ever get to that point? And remember we
had the dad of one of those victims on the show.
He said he hadn't heard from the mare at all.
How does a person ever get to that point? But
(08:41):
that's the reality of Mike Johnston right now, A five
five for zero five eight two five five the number
Dan five seven seven three nine.
Speaker 3 (08:49):
Here's the good news. Here's the good news.
Speaker 1 (08:52):
He is hurting his own cause, not just his own
cause politically. I think he has plummeted in terms of
his political price aspects. But but he is hurting the
far left costs and he is helping Trump's cause, which
is America's cause because guess what, a strong majority of
Americans agree with him on these policies.
Speaker 3 (09:14):
So that's the good news.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
The bad news is, in the meantime, he's he's turning
some people against law enforcement. He is green lighting violent
psychos against law enforcement, and he's putting law enforcement in
more danger. You're on the Dan Caplass.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Show, and now back to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
Speaker 7 (09:42):
If I may take the liberty for just fifteen seconds
to say something in Spanish, because I know a lot
of people back home would be very proud, and I
want to make sure I acknowledge that I get a
lot of adios.
Speaker 3 (09:52):
I mean, if I'm Alio finish, I mean, if I'm.
Speaker 7 (09:58):
Sent to in quenty, says a Trump. I just said,
(10:19):
I saved a munch of money by switching the.
Speaker 3 (10:20):
Guy com That's what I said.
Speaker 1 (10:23):
That's great, that's great.
Speaker 3 (10:25):
I mean, think about the difference the day makes.
Speaker 1 (10:27):
And I know it's a long time in the making,
and and Trump and his team haven't essentially been been
leading the world since he got elected, But what a
difference a day makes. I mean, We've had this Secretary
of State who is just the patsy for evil in
the world, and and now we have Marco Rubio, who
you know, had been my favorite for president for a
(10:49):
long time. Obviously, when Trump won that nomination, supported Trump,
and Trump turned into a better president and a better
force for life life and a protector of innocent life.
Then I think Marco Rubio could have been at that time,
or anybody else could have been at that time, and.
Speaker 3 (11:09):
President Trump ended up being in my view.
Speaker 1 (11:11):
Better for the country long term than it would have
been if Marco Rubio had been elected at that time,
because Trump gave birth to this movement, and it's a
movement that has transformed the GOP in a very positive
and lasting way. And so while I think Rubio would
have had a successful two term presidency, I don't think
(11:34):
it would have had as much long term impact as Trump.
But now I do believe Marco Rubio will be president someday.
I'm not saying he'll win in twenty eight.
Speaker 3 (11:44):
I think JD. Van says the inside track there.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
But Ryan, I'm sure you've thought about this, probably you
know during the hours you waited outside the Capitol Wan
Arena yesterday, so you could serve our audience so well
by being in there for that bit of history. But
think about it the primary that's going to start in
twenty six, think about all the talent on the GOP side.
Speaker 3 (12:06):
You know, JD.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
Vance, the inside track, You're gonna have Marco Rubio, You've
got all these other stars out there, And it's just
one of the reasons I'm really excited about the future.
Nothing's guaranteed, right except God wins in the end. But
I'm very, very excited about the future of the country
because I think the GOP is just pipelined all this
great talent. Trump is like this big icebreaker, just changing
(12:32):
the landscape long term if the GOP takes advantage of it.
Speaker 3 (12:36):
I like the way that sets up.
Speaker 8 (12:38):
The talent on our side of the isle, Dan, it's
just stark in contrast to whatever the Left is going
to try.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
To conjure up. And you'd mentioned two of them. Marco
Rubio will have served as Secretary of State.
Speaker 8 (12:50):
That's one of the highest level positions you can have
in the cabinet for the president, and he's been the
Senator from Florida for so many years. You've got Senator
Ted Cruz, you got jdva is the current vice president,
who's going to be well positioned to carry on.
Speaker 2 (13:03):
The Trump legacy.
Speaker 8 (13:04):
Might get Trump's endorsement, which would be enormous. You would
think Governor Ron DeSantis in Florida, perhaps Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders,
who was remarkable in her comments at Capitol One Arena
just yesterday.
Speaker 2 (13:18):
The governor of Arkansas will have served true terms.
Speaker 3 (13:21):
So boy, you're still on that Huckaby kick.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
And hey, she's great, But I mean, realistically, my friend,
you know, the list probably stops with fans and DeSantis
and Rubio.
Speaker 3 (13:37):
Right, I mean, and there's so much more talent there.
But Ted Cruz, but boy, Ted Cruz awesome. I've been
so impressed with him.
Speaker 1 (13:44):
But what about by way, It's a nice problem to have, right,
If you're on the Democrat side, what are you talking
about right now? You're talking about which scrap stinks less?
Speaker 3 (13:52):
Well, you know what?
Speaker 1 (13:53):
And on the GOP side you have this abundance of riches.
And I think Rubio, just like Trump, is going to
be I think, an even better president in his second
term because it's staggered than if it had been consecutive.
I think Rubio he is going to be a far
better president for not having been elected in sixteen and
having these other experiences.
Speaker 8 (14:14):
First, it'll be fascinating, and we're projecting forward here, but
you know, you got to take a snapshot of what
it's going to look like in twenty twenty eight and
can Rubio do better? Can he approve upon his performance
that we saw in twenty sixteen, where I think admittedly,
even though he was my first choice too, Dan yours
and mine, he was green politically, I don't think he
could handle himself or think on his feet as quickly.
(14:35):
Chris Christie kind of took him out at that debate
right before New Hampshire, so he would need to fine
tune kind of his presentation.
Speaker 2 (14:42):
I think he's already done that in large degree.
Speaker 8 (14:44):
But there's another guy that I think he's going to
be in the mix and in the conversation, and that's.
Speaker 2 (14:48):
Representative Byron Donald's from Floorda.
Speaker 3 (14:51):
Yeah, yeah, another big stuff, talented, uber talented.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
But now you're starting to get into the VP stuff, right,
and listen, I know we may have no audience left
two minutes from now if we start talking about the
twenty eighth cycle. I started it my bad. All I'm
saying is that the country is better off that Trump
became president instead of Rubio, and that Rubio is going
to be a great president and even better for all
(15:15):
of these experiences. That's all I'm saying. But then you
bring it back to Colorado, right, and it contrasts with
what we open the show with, which is this dangerous,
deceptive lunacy from lawless Mike Johnston, the mayor of Denver,
where he continues to put targets on the back of
law enforcement, but by now talking about federal law enforcement
(15:37):
officers coming in and terrorizing in Colorado, which is a
total lie, totally false.
Speaker 3 (15:44):
And he knows it.
Speaker 1 (15:46):
But he's not only become lawless, Mike, he's become shameless, Mike.
And you know, if it was just the normal lefty stuff,
who cares. You know, he's irrelevant, just like all these
lefties in Colorado are irrelevant right now. They're not going
anywhere nationally. Yeah, they're relevant in terms of the harm
they cause in the state, but right now, you know,
if it wasn't this lefty, it'd be some other lefty
(16:06):
holding these statewide offices. Colorado is getting there, but it
hasn't made that change yet. But Johnston becomes much more
dangerous than the others because of the way he's targeting
law enforcement and speaking of them as the enemy, as invaders,
as terrorizers in an era where he knows you've got
(16:26):
these lunatics out there looking to take out law enforcement.
So that's what makes him so dangerous. The rest of them, yeah,
they do a lot of bad things, but right now
the state's just controlled by lefties. But as you look
at all that talent, and Ryan, I'm sure you had
a lot of time to ponder it yesterday at the
Capitol Center and then I'll get to text in the
next segment. But Colorado, okay, Colorado. You know we're blessed
(16:51):
with all this national talent. We know we've got a
lot of great GOP talent in Colorado.
Speaker 3 (16:58):
But who is in a.
Speaker 1 (16:59):
Position if anyone now to break through as we look
at these state wide races in twenty six and twenty eight.
So we'd love to get your take on that as well.
Eight five five four zero five eight two five five.
I know Ryan's thought a lot about it. You can
text Dan da n five seven seven three nine.
Speaker 8 (17:16):
Well, we do think so that Scott Bottoms is announcing
his candidacy for the GOP primary for governor Dan so he.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
Is, Oh, I didn't know anybody he'd announced.
Speaker 3 (17:26):
Yep, he will fill us in give give.
Speaker 9 (17:28):
Us my father.
Speaker 8 (17:29):
I'm just observing what I've seen on social media from
the state representative. He's a pretty strong conservative and that
may be difficult needle to thread for him here in Colorado.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Well, wonderful, Let's get him on the show. Let's get
any of these folks to announce all the show and yeah, yeah,
because you would expect that people will start announcing about now.
Some other people make it in mid year, some may
wait a little bit later, But yeah, I would expect
we'll start to hear some of that right now. Can Colorado?
(18:01):
Can Colorado be saved short term? Can anybody win statewide
in this state? So we'll throw that out there for discussion.
It's not our main focus. Our main focus is how
cool is it right now to be living through this
history together, all the great things that are happening because
of Trump's victory.
Speaker 3 (18:18):
So we'll come back so we'll have some.
Speaker 1 (18:21):
More of that hot sound of the day and what
comes next in Colorado. In terms of immigration raids, you're
on the Dan Caplis Show.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
You're listening to the Dan Kapliss Show podcast.
Speaker 6 (18:39):
Democratic Governor Jared Poula says that he welcomes the Trump
administration's assistance in removing people from our community who are
here legally and have committed crimes.
Speaker 2 (18:47):
Do you also welcome that help? Yeah.
Speaker 5 (18:48):
We will partner on violent criminals as we have always
done in the past.
Speaker 3 (18:52):
Mstian, we will do it again.
Speaker 5 (18:54):
We don't want criminals of any of you have round
on our streets, and that's been clear for us.
Speaker 3 (18:57):
Consistently that is is simply not true. Wow.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
Wow.
Speaker 8 (19:05):
Another anyway, Dan, that you said, I really want you
to build on this point because I think it's an
important one, and I hadn't even pointed that out when
I went through and edited these with Mayor Mike Johnston.
He cited the extreme examples of murder and rape.
Speaker 2 (19:18):
Yeah, support those.
Speaker 8 (19:19):
Two, but there are a lot of other violent crimes,
roperty crimes, auto thefts.
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Those are okay for Mike Johnson, apparently all.
Speaker 1 (19:26):
Sorts of those crimes. And by the way, in the past,
show us on the record, Mayor Johnston, where you have
and where your administration has assisted ICE and identifying these
these violent criminals and helped ICE get rid of them.
Speaker 9 (19:42):
No.
Speaker 1 (19:43):
Obviously, what police in Johnston see is that the tide
has turned nationally and so now they're switching positions in
my view, you know, to try to avoid getting wiped
out politically. So where were they can anybody find where
they were saying these things before? I'm not saying they
didn't whisper it out of the side of their mouth
at some Kawana's club, which is wonderful, by the way,
(20:04):
But where have they been out there leading on this
before or saying that before in any kind of meaningful way.
I would love to see that. No, and Ryan, to
your point, remember this show led the way when Jared
Polis I mean, I remember the State of the State address,
what was it two three years ago for maybe, where
(20:24):
Jared Poulus gets up there and he's featuring this big,
top priority bill from the Democrats that is going to
legalize a lot of different violent crime in Colorado. It's
going to legalize sexual crimes in Colorado if they're committed
in our public schools. Remember all that, And so this
was Polis's and the Democrats. This was their nirvana. And
(20:48):
because they believed that, you know, by enforcing these laws
against violent crimes and sexual crimes in our schools, that
it was causing too many of color to go to jail.
So they were just all of the sudden essentially going
to legalize all those crimes. And then our show led
(21:08):
the charge against that, and others got on board and
together and there was a lot of effort from a
lot of sources.
Speaker 3 (21:15):
Together we were.
Speaker 1 (21:16):
Able to kill that bill, which was a top priority
bill for the Democrats. The relevance here is, Yeah, when
Johnston says something like, oh, yeah, we'll support Trump and
getting rid of people here illegally who've committed rape and murder.
That seems to be where he draws the line. You know, well,
at first, why hasn't he been doing that the way
he should have been and doing more of it?
Speaker 3 (21:38):
But but what other crimes?
Speaker 1 (21:40):
Yeah, but he won't come on air to have that
conversation and the left won't push him on that. So
another reason that Trump won. Right, let me get to
some of these texts as well. But the rubber's about
to meet the road on this, and so Trump's going
to get his way, and Polus and Johnston all these
other tough talkers. You know, you really think they're going
(22:02):
to be willing to go to jail.
Speaker 2 (22:03):
No they aren't.
Speaker 1 (22:04):
So Trump is going to get his way, so right now,
because America wants him to get his way, and he
should get his way.
Speaker 3 (22:09):
We should be getting.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
Rid of folks here illegally who are committing other serious crimes.
And I know, listen, I'm about to get to a
lot of these texts. You're going to have a lot
of people saying, don't stop there, Dan. You know, everybody
here illegally should be deported, So hey, let's have that
conversation as well. I know there are a lot of
people who believe that. First of all, I don't think
(22:31):
there's any realistic chance of that happening under any administration,
which shouldn't stop folks from talking about whether they want
that to be true. I think that if Trump can
achieve what Trump is setting out to achieve here, it's
going to be one of the greatest contributions in the
history of this nation. It's going to be a great
contribution to everybody here legally, it's going to be a
(22:53):
great contribution to everybody here illegally. And then the question becomes,
do you expect this administration or some future administration to
deport everybody here illegally? And is that what you want?
Let me get to some of these texts day five
to five or zero five A two five five, The
number will start with Brian here on the Dan kaplis
sholl welcome, Brian.
Speaker 9 (23:15):
Hey, Brian Hey, Dan. I think he read that writing
on the wall.
Speaker 10 (23:19):
Holman said, Look, you can either give me your criminals
out of jail, or I can go into the neighborhood.
And a lot of people are going to get swept
up in it, because if you're here illegally, you're going
whether you're a criminal or not. So I think you
kind of got the message on that.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
But let me ask you, Brian, do you think you
I got to ask you a question on that. Do
you think that Holman is saying that the administration is
going to stop with the criminals who are in Denver
and other jails.
Speaker 3 (23:47):
I don't think Colman's saying that at all.
Speaker 1 (23:49):
I expect for very shortly going to see a lot
of rates on people been adjudicated.
Speaker 9 (23:54):
So yeah, so he's not going to stop there, but
they're going to start with the obviously the violent criminals,
so everybody can be the difference. But if you have
to go into the neighborhoods, then there's gonna be a
lot of people.
Speaker 11 (24:05):
You might have a construction guy, which I deal with
a lot of them, who might be up in you know,
theil or something building these million dollar homes that might
get caught up into who's never committed a crime in
his life.
Speaker 9 (24:18):
So it's gonna, you know, it's going to backfire. I
think they're kind of getting the idea that this whole
thing is going to backfire. So we're going to kind
of cooperate with them, with the criminals. I think they
came to that realization because unlike the other administration, now
we got people that are actually serious, which is a
great relief. I mean, watching the last two days, it's
(24:39):
just it's it's amazing, excite and to see what we're
going through. We're going through probably the most historical time
in the United States of America in my.
Speaker 1 (24:48):
Opinion, well certainly in our lifetimes. Brian, appreciate the call.
Thank you for that. No, it's amazing. And when I
start a lot of shows with let the celebration continue. Yes,
for that reason. I mean, this is this may end
up being one of the major tipping point moments in
American history. Let's get to some text here. By the way,
I respectfully disagree with Brian. I do think that the
(25:08):
administration is and should is going to go into neighborhoods,
is going to go into the street and is going
to pick up people here illegally who have committed other
violent crimes, other serious crimes. I don't think it's going
to be limited to people in jails. Dan, Let's says
a Texter. Let's not let the perfect be the enemy
(25:30):
of the good. As for how the chess pieces look
two years from now, yeah, Hey, I've always been a
believer in that premise because there isn't a lot out
there that's perfect right now, including potential candidates. Dan, this
may be the time to get Colorado back. With Trump
in office and these lunatics like MJ behaving so ridiculous,
(25:51):
maybe Colorado residents will realize blue states are ridiculous and
will decline and eventually fail. Role model is California. Texter
may well be right. I personally think it's going to
take a combination of the awfulness of the lefties in
power in Colorado, with some really attractive GOP candidates, very
well run campaigns, some luck, etc. We know the money,
(26:14):
the big money is not going to be there for
probably any of the GOP candidates in the beginning. It
might come in later if it looks like they have
a chance to win. And so I think it's going
to take that combination because Colorado, think about it, We've
been blessed with one of literally the greatest places in
the world, and the left will completely ruin it eventually.
You can see that in progress right now. But because
(26:37):
our starting point is so high with all of these
blessings we have, it takes the left longer to ruin it.
So we won't get to that point where they just
throw out the left because the place is so trashed
until further down the road, and lord knows, we don't
want to get to that point.
Speaker 3 (26:54):
So that's why I think it's going to take that combo.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
Of this horrible garbage from the left combined with some
great GOP candidates. Dan, can you please interpret what you
know the measures that will be taken with the deportation
policy as President Trump has mandated to be done, including
what I've recently heard about birthright citizenship.
Speaker 3 (27:14):
Always a great show rip, Thank.
Speaker 1 (27:15):
You, Rick. Yes, And as you may have heard, a
bunch of attorney generals now predictably understandably have gone to
court to try to block Trump's executive action against birthright citizenship.
This was always going to be headed toward a major
showdown in the US Supreme Court. I think it does
need to go to the US Supreme Court. And I
(27:35):
don't think the I don't think the nation, the founder
certainly ever envisioned birthright citizenship turning into what it has
turned into today.
Speaker 3 (27:46):
So yeah, I think that's.
Speaker 1 (27:47):
Going to be one of the next enormous US Supreme
Court battles. How long it takes to percolate up through
the federal court system.
Speaker 3 (27:55):
And get to Scotus.
Speaker 1 (27:57):
You know, that's what we're about to find out together, Dan,
I love when I wake up in the morning and
Donald Trump is president.
Speaker 3 (28:03):
Hey, I get you. I feel the same way.
Speaker 1 (28:06):
And part of it is the biggest part is policy, obviously,
and you know I want to get to the pardoning
of pro the pro lifers who are wrongfully imprisoned and
arrested as well. Part of it. The biggest part is policy.
The other part is the guy's hilarious and you can
be proud of him as president. You know, every now
and then he colors outside the lines. But you've got strength,
(28:27):
he's intelligent, he's unafraid. It's it's just a one eighty right,
and I'm enjoying every minute of it.
Speaker 3 (28:36):
Right now, you're on the Dan Kapla Show.
Speaker 2 (28:45):
And now back to the Dan Kapla Show podcast. Usual letter.
Speaker 3 (28:52):
He may have I don't know, oh.
Speaker 5 (29:02):
It, occupator, it could have been years.
Speaker 10 (29:07):
Thank you.
Speaker 3 (29:10):
Maybe we should all read it together. Well, maybe I'll
read it first and then make that determined. Peter, thank
you very much. I may not have seen this for months.
Help did I left two one in the desk? He's like, well,
stuff like that.
Speaker 1 (29:31):
Right, It's just so cool, and it's it's so comforting,
I know, in its own way. It's also just really
good for the country because, no matter what you think
of the policy, I obviously love a lot of his policies,
you've got somebody who's functional, somebody who's smart, somebody who
can sit there and do two things at once, and
(29:51):
it just brings you back to and I don't think
the country is going to forget the way that the left,
including much of the media, was was part of this
cover up of the fact that we had a president
who could not function.
Speaker 3 (30:05):
And so I hope this nation.
Speaker 1 (30:07):
Never forgives the left and always holds it against the
left and the media, you know, at the ballot box,
because not not a any kind of spite, but just
self survival of the nation. They revealed themselves not just
in that moment, because any of us can do something
goofy in one moment, right, that's not a character or
just kind of.
Speaker 3 (30:25):
Wild or whatever.
Speaker 1 (30:27):
But you're talking about day after day, month after month,
year after year of this active deception of the American
people of the fact we did not have a functional
president and the grave danger that put our country in.
By the way, the reason Ryan bumped back with woo
woot is I was emailing during a break with my
office and I just had a great.
Speaker 3 (30:47):
Victory, Thank you God.
Speaker 1 (30:49):
And so one of the paralegals was texting woot and
I was looking for the origin, because now, you know,
when great things happen, people go or you make a
long pot or whatever, and so I was trying to
figure out where they came from. And Ryan, I see
two explanations. One is the song you just played nineteen
ninety three, woot, there it is. And the other competing
(31:11):
explanation adopted by many is a boy scout troupe in
Minnesota in two thousand and four. The leader's name was
Mike Wooten. Instead the boys would say woot woot. So
which do you think it is?
Speaker 8 (31:25):
Well, I've having a difficulty here, Dan, I'll play the
other one because I'm confused.
Speaker 2 (31:30):
There is one song.
Speaker 8 (31:31):
The one I just played is actually whoomp, whoomp exclamation
mark there it is by Tag Team. But that's but no,
you heard the song. That's the one we associate with
what you were asking for. However, it's a big however
here ninety five South, I got to look like where
this came from and when it came from does have
a titled track called Woot whoot? What you're saying there
(31:55):
it is woot There it is one is woom there
it is the p and woot.
Speaker 2 (32:01):
With a tea there it is yeah. Yeah, so I'm
really confused right now.
Speaker 1 (32:05):
It's yeah, it's everybody knows it's WoT. Let me get
to some texts. We'll get to calls as well. Dan
Lovepeter Dousey that's from Alexa. Yeah.
Speaker 3 (32:14):
No, he does a great job. Dan.
Speaker 1 (32:16):
Do you think ice officers should be allowed to enter
churches or elementary schools to make an arrest? I would
be interested to hear your interpretation of sensitive location. I
think this is easy. You should be able to go
anywhere where you would be going if you are pursuing
anybody else who had violated the law. You know, like
I know a texture to your show. Earlier, Ryan had
(32:37):
made the point, Well, wait a second, does that mean
you know under you know lawless? Mike Johnston's worldview that
if somebody knocks off a seven to eleven, their first
stop should be an elementary school. God forbid, Please don't
do that any criminal or a church, because then they'll
have sanctuary. No I. So yes, law enforcements should be
(32:58):
able to go anywhere in pursuit of any kind of
dangerous criminal. You know, if you're talking about a situation
which we're not talking about now because Trump is not
doing this, but if you're talking about a situation where
somebody was here illegally, otherwise law abiding citizen, etc. Wasn't
end under any existing court order to leave. You know,
(33:21):
should somebody be following somebody into a church for that person,
no I.
Speaker 3 (33:27):
To see that.
Speaker 1 (33:28):
But if you're talking about somebody here illegally who's committed
some other crime, you follow them.
Speaker 3 (33:32):
To wherever they are and you get them the hell
out of here. Hey, five to five?
Speaker 1 (33:35):
Was there A five?
Speaker 3 (33:36):
A two five?
Speaker 1 (33:37):
Five? I slept very well last night. Glad the circus
is out of the White House. Interesting, that's part of it, right,
because obviously, and it's almost divine intervention, that worst didn't
happen in this country, thoughing awful lot of bad stuff
did when we did not have a president for all
that time.
Speaker 3 (33:53):
But to me that the greater joy comes from.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
The positive side of this we do have in there
now and all the good that's going to come from that.
Speaker 3 (34:06):
Let's see.
Speaker 1 (34:09):
You know what's so interesting me, Ryan, I'm sure you've
seen a few of these texts come in that you've got.
I don't know if it's a group of Texters, are
just one who apparently thinks I'm an idiot, and they
write this stuff that's so racist and so extreme, but
they kind of soft pedal it, and they just expect
I'm going to go read that believing that people will
(34:31):
think that represents people in my audience, when I would
bet you everything I own that's some lefty somewhere who
has this cartoonish character in his mind for a conservative.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
But I had a similar earlier today.
Speaker 1 (34:46):
I'm dumb enough to read that stuff, you know.
Speaker 8 (34:50):
And so there's two possible paths you can take here,
well three. I guess you could just ignore it and
not read it. But you could read it and out
this person and shame them. And that's what I earlier
with kind of a similar one. I think I know
the one you're talking about here. I won't read it.
Or we can just block that number on the text line.
Speaker 1 (35:07):
Whoa, we don't block numbers.
Speaker 3 (35:09):
Hey, that's part of the pride of this right.
Speaker 1 (35:11):
I mean, you know, forty years on air, we don't
prevent anybody from calin. We don't block now. I mean,
you got to do whatever you want to do on
your show, which is a superb show by the way.
But yeah, no, I don't want to block anybody like that.
I do want to get to this text when I
come back, Dan, so for being president of law and order,
Trump immediately pardoned the criminals of J six is the
(35:32):
way the Texter put it. Let me get into those
pardons and then Trump's explanation today. I want to also
get into this so called wolk minister who lectured Trump
at the National Prayer Service and why she's actually hurting
her far left Cause you're on the Dan Kapla show.
