Dan busts out the 'back it up or pack it up' phrase as a hammer to drop on a caller making vague accusations about the host not being tough enough on right-leaning guests or political figures. When Dan calls for specific examples, there mysteriously are none.
Martha Raddatz does some actual journalism and presses Harris surrogate Gov. Maura Healy (D-MA) on the Vice-President's erroneous debate comment suggesting there were no American combat troops in active war zones.
Tim Clemente, former FBI special agent tells CNN's Erin Burnett the second Trump would-be assassin was likely motivated by toxic 'Trump is Hitler'-type rhetoric from the Left.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
Anybody had could.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Have seen this coming yesterday. Right, it's completely unsatisfactory, but
it goes way, way, way beyond that, this idea that oh,
somebody might get into those bushes and into those trees
and be able to take a shot at the president
as he plays golf. There's been video circulating for a
long time of a video taken through the fence as
Trump is on the golf course. Right now, this was
(00:38):
a known vulnerability. And yes, thank god for the great
Secret Service agent who did his or her job so
wonderfully and spotted this monster. But come on, it never
should have got to that. That street should have been
shut down Trump before Pennsylvania, before the first assassination attempt.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Can't believe I have to say those words.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Trump should have received the same level of security as
a saying president before Pennsylvania, the Biden White House knew
that he was under active assassination threat from Iran. That
Irun wanted to assassinate him. They knew that. On top
of that, Aroun had put out a video showing how
they were going to assassinate him on his golf course.
(01:17):
So he should have had the same level of protection
as a sitting president before Pennsylvania and absolutely inexcusable that
he didn't have that yesterday. That street should have been closed.
There never should have been a scenario where somebody could
lie and wait in those bushes for twelve hours. Now
we know, we were told today that may have been
the case because of cell phone data picked up. There's
(01:39):
always a chance the cell phone was planted there connected
to the GoPro. But one way or the other, this
thing was in the works twelve hours before at that
golf course, and authorities told us today that wait a second,
this golf was a last minute add So is there
a leak inside?
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Where is that from? Is he working with somebody else?
Speaker 3 (01:58):
You know?
Speaker 1 (01:58):
CNN reporting in the last few minutes says breaking news
that authorities are looking at whether he was working with
somebody else. Now, of course they're going to look at
that as part of any investigation. This headline supports the
implication that they might have more.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Information on that.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Also, the FBI now labeling it a quote extremely serious
assassination attempt. I didn't know there was any other kind,
but that may suggest that there's additional evidence unfolding.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
You look at this.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Assassin, and you look at how calm he was, how
pleased he was after arrest, immediately invoking his right to counsel, etc.
And at this point you can't take any possibility off
the table, right except this we have on two separate occasions,
now had had a deliberate decision made by the White House.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Well, now I.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Say that that's my assumption that it's made by the
White House to not provide Trump with the with the
full level of protection he needs.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
And it seems like a no brainer.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
He should have had full presidential level protection prior to Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
So who do you blame for this? How do you
fix it?
Speaker 1 (03:12):
A couple of the questions we're kicking around this afternoon.
You can text me d A N five seven seven
thirty nine call eight five five four zero five eight
two five five the number. President Trump blames Biden and Harris.
He said this this afternoon on Fox Quote he referring
to the assassin believe the rhetoric of Biden and Harris,
(03:34):
and he acted on it. Their rhetoric is causing me
to be shot at when I am the one who
is going to save the country and they are the
ones that are destroying the country, both from inside and out.
So that what the President told Fox this afternoon. Do
you agree with him on that? Eight five five for
zero five eight two five five the number? Here's President Trump.
(03:58):
You may remember one of his you know, that's the
funny thing. He missed so many opportunities that a lot
of people forget. He had a lot of really strong
moments in that September ten Fax debate, and here's one
of them.
Speaker 4 (04:12):
This is the one that weaponized, not me, she weaponized.
I probably took a bullet to the head because of
the things that they say about me. They talk about democracy.
I'm a threat to democracy. They're the threat to democracy.
Rather fake Russia, Russia, Russia investigation.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
A lot nowhere listening to that fraud then from ABC
interrupt him, right because Trump's making a good point, and.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
So he wants to interrupt him. What a disgrace to journalism.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Eight five five or zero five eight two five five
text d A n five seven, seven, three nine. I'll
get to some of those right now. Dan, I do
not trust the DOJFBI or Secret Service. Hope de Sanus
does not release Ryan Routh. If he does, or will
likely be Epstein that from Alexa, Thank you, Alexa. I
do think we need a nine to eleven tight commission investigation,
(05:01):
and it needs to be rocket docketed. I mean, I
think the agencies have to stay involved and do their
normal thing, but this has to rise to the level
of a nine eleven type investigation because guess what, it's
not going away, right And we've seen this throughout history
aimed at some particularly positive impact.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Players, and Donald Trump has been one of those.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
You know that you're going to have multiple people trying
to take him out because they don't like the change
he's bringing. I mean, you know, we obviously saw what
happened to John Kennedy, we saw what happened to Doctor King,
We've seen what happened to Bobby Kennedy. We've seen's what
they tried to do to Reagan, We've seen what's happened
to a lot of great figures in American and world history.
(05:46):
So they're not going to try to stop trying to
take Trump out, and you can't just trust it now
to the normal bureaucratic process. Right now, there's a CNN
report that Trump and Biden had a quote cordial conversation
this afternoon.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
I imagine that they did.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
I mean, come on, Ryan, Biden put a Trump had
on last week, right, I took.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
It on Air Force one with it.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
But that conversation was more cordial this time around. Dan,
Let's face it, anyone was going to guess where Trump
might be, it would be at a golf course. Remember
the stats and how much golf he played during the presidency.
I can only imagine he continues at the same pace
or more. He played a lot less golf than Obama did.
I can tell you that much, and a whole lot
(06:31):
less beach time than Biden. But anyway, yeah, listen, hey,
is there a scenario where once knowing whether this assassin
acted alone or with others, once knowing that Trump was
at mar A Lago, that they would guess that he
would be at the golf course on Sunday.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Sure, that's that's a possibility.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
It's also a possibility they had inside information authority saying
today that golf was a very late ad. But but yeah,
of course that's a possibility. All I'm saying is we
need to be sure the Maryria can people need to
have confidence. And even more important than that, no disrespect
to all of us, is we need to get to
the bottom of what's really happening here so we can
best protect Trump moving forward. A he's likely to be
(07:13):
our next president, but whether he is or not, he
deserves that.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Level of protection.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
The sheriff saying in the jurisdiction that took him into
the assassin into custody that he was very relaxed. Quote
looked like he was going out to dinner. So Dan
interesting on this one. Used an AK forty seven, a
weapon preferred by some groups rather than other weapons.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Just saying.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Dan eliminated, meaning eliminated from the position of president by
not voting for him. Stop saying they meant to kill him,
unless you know for a fact.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
I've never said they meant to kill him ever, not once,
not once. And I actually defended Jason Crowe on the
statement that the Trump camp has criticized him ver saying
that Trump is an extreme threat to our democracy or
words to that effect. I've defended craw on that because
to me, while Crows one hundred percent wrong, it's really
(08:10):
Harris and Biden and others there in the cabal who
are the extreme threat to our democracy. I don't think
that we can now go around censoring anybody, whether it's
Jason Crow or anybody else, for engaging in hard hitting
political rhetoric. Now context matters, right, I mean, if somebody
(08:31):
comes out right after an assassination attempt on Trump and
uses certain kind of words in that context, it may
clearly be intended to or or may be viewed as
a call to violence. I'm talking about just this kind
of Hey, let's fight, let's win the war, Let's win
this battle, go give it all we have. There's all
(08:52):
sorts of metaphorical rhetoric in politics that we should not
now have to abandon because it might trigger some job.
So I'll defend Crow on that, But it's like obscenity.
You know it when you see it, right, And there
are some things that just go beyond. And I'm not
saying this Democrat congressman, and he said this, it was
(09:14):
before the first assassination attempt. I don't remember the date.
I'm not saying that. Dan Goldman was calling for somebody
to kill Trump. I'm just saying that under these circumstances,
he should be absolutely aware that this kind of language,
which I say goes beyond normal political rhetoric, that this
kind of language might trigger somebody.
Speaker 5 (09:36):
Just unquestionable at this point that that man cannot see
public office again. He is not only unfit, he is
destructive to our democracy and.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
He has to be he has to be eliminated. Seems
like it speaks for itself.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
Texter eight five five was there a five A two
five five text DA and five seven seven through nine.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Can we come back?
Speaker 1 (10:00):
I do want to slip this in, though today mostly
devoted to the second assassination attempt. Can't believe I have
to say that who do you blame? How do we
fix it? But when we come back, I'm want to
give you some great distilled polling information that I think
will again put a smile on your face. That's what
we're here for right here on the Dan Kapla Show.
Speaker 6 (10:22):
And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
I want to ask you Martha.
Speaker 7 (10:26):
Ritis about her comments about the military. She said during
the debate this about the US military.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Let's listen.
Speaker 8 (10:37):
As of today, there is not one member of the
United States military who is in active duty in a
combat zone in any war zone around the world. The
first time this century, our.
Speaker 7 (10:50):
Fout checkers found that to be false. And I have
a lot of experience in that area as well. There
are currently nine hundred US military personnel in Syria twenty
five one hundred US troops in a rock all have
been under regular threat from drones and missiles for months.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
We also have action.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Yeah, I just wanted to let you hear that because
that's Martha Ratus on Radit's pardon me on ABC ABC
fact checking Leo a week too late, right. And then
what was so confirming is this Governor Morrah Heally from Massachusetts.
Harris surrogate then wouldn't concede the point and just dodged
her the same way that Harris does. It is truly
(11:31):
a pure post truth era. And I'm not saying that
President Trump doesn't, you know, tell a whopper every now
and then.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
I mean, I'm not saying.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
That, but I'm just talking about systematic lies, and the
left systematically lies. The truth means nothing to them, and
it's part of this lack of morality on the part left.
I'm not saying democrats aren't moral, but the secular left
that controls a democratic party, there's no morality, and they
look at people who tell the truth as weak. And
(12:02):
also this idea of political violence. It's been part of
the playbook of the left. Not saying democrats, but the left,
and they run the party now for a long long time.
We cannot allow this as the new normal in America.
Let's go to the phone lines.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
Who do you blame? How do we fix it?
Speaker 1 (12:18):
But I want to let you know a couple of
things real quick, and then deliver on a tease, kind
of a fun tease. And that is, first of all,
you know, the left is getting killed right now. Harris
is really in trouble in this race because now Trump
did a really good job in the debate on this
that there is so much focus now on the open
(12:40):
borders and the consequence of the open borders and the
TDA gang, etc. Whether it's out of Aurora or elsewhere.
And then this story, one of the stories that grabbed
attention was the allegation that, you know, some immigrants were
eating dogs or cats or whatever the story is. And
as I've said before, I don't know whether that's is
(13:00):
true or not, but clearly the left is losing its
mind over it, because, along with other things, anything that
calls attention to what Kamala Harris and Joe Biden did
at the border and the horrible consequences for this country
is Harris is kryptonite. So the left now is trying
(13:20):
to shut down discussion of anything that calls attention to that.
So the left now zeroed in on these terrible, awful,
despicable bomb threats in Springfield. But the Republican governor just
a short time confirmed that all of these bomb threats,
according to the governor, are from overseas, and most, if
(13:42):
not all, are from the same country. So obviously all
of these threats are bogus. All of these threats are
politically motivated. But the left trying to use what the
governor says are these bogus overseas threats to shut down
discussion on this issue.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
Eight fo five for zero five eight two five five.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
Number and wherever the truth lies, let it come out,
whatever the truth is. But the whole idea of censorship,
which is what the left's all about, because the facts
crush the left, is another one of these grave dangers
for this country should Harris win. Back to the phone lines,
Let's go to Joe in Denver, Colorado. You're on the
Dan Kaplis Show.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
Welcome Joe, Hi Dan, thanks for having my call. Sure,
I think I think basically all of us are. All
of us are to blame for We're kind of where
the rhetoric is that. I don't know if you saw
this also in the news about the New Hampshire Libertarian
(14:40):
Party posting a tweet saying anybody who kills Kamala Harris
will be considered a hero.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
Hey, Joe, let me ask you this. All of us
are to blame. I'm not to blame. I assume you're
not to blame, So why would you start with that?
Speaker 2 (14:56):
I'm curious.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
I think we we don't hold ourselves to high enough standards.
And I don't want to get into a fight now
with you about no. No, no, I.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
Don't want to fight, Joe. I'm glad you call, but
I'm not to blame for anything. I'm not to blame
for anything, and I'm sure you're not either, So why
would you start with that? Isn't it real important that
we just get to the raw truth about who is
to blame and just have the courage, whether.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Out there on the left or right.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
And I think this has been part of the left's
playbook for a long time. Shouldn't we just have the
courage and honesty to point that out?
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Yeah, but I don't think you have the courage are
honest pointing out that happens on the right to near
equal or sometimes more extent then it happens on the left.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Well, let's have the conversation, Joe. Let's have the conversation.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Because what I do have the courage to do, and
I've done it for almost thirty years, is sit here,
since there nobody unlike these unlike these cowards on the left,
I censor nobody. Everybody's allowed on air, and I'll let
them say anything they want to about me, but it's
back it up or pack it up. So you are
welcome to be here. You're welcome to stay through the
break and make whatever case you want against the right.
(16:14):
I'll give you all the time you want to do that,
but I'll challenge you if I think you're wrong or
you're not backing it up. But Joe, what I'm focused
on to start with is why would you say, quote
all of us are to blame. That's normally a very
weak sort of you know, hey, it's all of our
fault kind of thing, when it's obviously not true.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
You're not to blame for any of this, Right.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
It's lot easier to say it's everybody else's fault and
not double check to make sure I'm not part of
the book.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Are you part of the problem, Joe, let's start with that.
Let's talk about Joe, are you part of the problem.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
I don't think I'm part of the problem. Okay, great
with people in a straightforward, honest way, and I'm able
to both point out the positives of both sides and
the negatives of both beautiful and then I give a
net balance of where I think things lie.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
That's a great way to live. Chose. So all I'm
saying is is.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Let's just not start with quote all of us are
to blame, because clearly you're not and I'm not.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
So let's talk about who is. And if you're the guy,
please start there.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
You know how much we love talking about me here,
so start there and and tell me why I'm to blame.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
Well, blame sometimes it's tough, but you're obviously an advocate
for the for the right and conservative values. Everything you
present is geared towards supporting that side, diminishing the left,
which are not democrats. Uh, you know, subliminal guy there.
(17:50):
But uh uh you know you. I find you leave
pieces of an argument.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Cho let's do this. Let me ask you if you
heard the show today. For example, did you hear me
defending Jason Crowe against an attack from the Trump campaign
about twenty minutes ago? And why don't you stay? Because
I want you to stay, my friend. I want you
to have all the time you need to make your case,
whether it's against me or anybody else. But I'm going
(18:21):
to call it the way I see it, and I'm
going to back it up, and the chips fall where
they may.
Speaker 6 (18:27):
You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
Speaker 5 (18:31):
Just unquestionable at this point that that man cannot see
public office again. He is not only unfit, he is
destructive to our democracy and.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
He has to be he has to be eliminated.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Wow, Democratic Congressman Dan Goldman. That was in the past,
but speaks for itself. You know it is remarkable to
me because I just listen. I'm the furthest thing from
perfect right A work in progress. But I try really,
really hard to be a very moral person, and I
(19:07):
can't imagine life without at least that effort, without that
being kind of a focal point. And I think probably
ninety nine point nine percent of the folks listening are
the same way. Hey, we're flawed, but at the core
of our life is wanting to be really moral people
and working toward that and valuing those core virtues, starting
(19:28):
with honesty. But you look at the left right now,
and CNN is one glaring example of that. Kamala Harris
is the single worst offender I've seen in my lifetime
when it comes to dishonesty. But they just have no
regard for honesty whatsoever, none. And it is so dangerous, right,
(19:49):
It's so dangerous to this nation for all the obvious reasons,
but also to the moral health of the nation moving forward.
Imagine if she went since she's rewarded for the But
I'm just at the latest example of CNN has this
big headline up Ohio governor deployers troopers to school amid
dozens of bomb threats.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
What they're not.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Telling you is that same Ohio governor came out a
short time ago and said, all these threats are bogus.
They're from overseas, and it looks like all may be
from the same country.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
But CNN doesn't want to.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
Tell you that, right Wow, eight ffy five for zero
five A two five five the number. Obviously, today we're
focused on the second assassination attempt of Trump, which clearly
shouldn't Every honest person be able to agree with this.
That street should have never been opened. Trump before Pennsylvania
should have had the same level of protection as a
sitting president for all the obvious reasons, including the Biden
(20:46):
White House knew before Pennsylvania that Iran was actively attempting
to assassinate Trump, and even after Pennsylvania, that street next
to the fifth and six holes is open. Come on,
Iran is actually put out of video showing it killing
Trump on his golf course. And if I remember right, Ryan,
we'll look at that video during the next break. I
(21:08):
know you're looking at some kind of video now, but
I don't think that's the Ironian video.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
During the next break. I think that video.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
That video showed their automated drone going through the bushes
next to the golf course. So how does this administration,
how does this White House not close down those streets,
because bottom line is he should have had the same
level of protection. How could anybody argue otherwise? Dwayne in Denver,
(21:36):
you're on the Dan Kaplis Show.
Speaker 9 (21:37):
Welcome, Well, thank you, good aving, thank you for speaking
with David. Sure you had an earlier caller that mentioned
about Trump naming his own three top people for security.
I would expand on that to him having his complete
own security because I know there's an egg people that
(22:01):
would yeah, hoops and protection.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
And you have.
Speaker 9 (22:08):
A story of the Secret Service firing into the bushes
and not hitting I'm ex militaria. It was just a panache,
But I know there's guys hits a heck a lot
better than they seem.
Speaker 2 (22:23):
To be doing well it joined.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
I think at this point we have to be very
grateful for the Secret Service agent who spotted him right,
and then as we get more information through the investigation, obviously,
well we'll have a better feel for what those angles were,
et cetera. And we also have information this guy had
ceramic plates. I don't know if those came into play
or they were just in the bag in terms of
the private security right that they've been offered doing They've
(22:48):
been offered by lots of people, but at this point,
obviously for practical reasons, that wouldn't work. Hey, Joe in
Denver was kind enough to stay. And Joe had started
his segment by saying, we're all to blame or words
to those effects. I challenged him on that because I
don't think Joe's to blame for any of this, and
I know I'm not, so.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
We've already covered that part of it.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
But Joe, I wanted to give you a chance to
say whatever you wanted to say.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
Well, thanks, and before I hope when I said you
didn't have the courage to challenge some things, I mean
it wasn't necessarily meant as mean as it probably came across.
But you know, just you know, just being willing. And
it's hard as an advocate and opinion host to go
(23:36):
and present the full, complete truth and full story.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Joe, Can I take it?
Speaker 3 (23:44):
It's hard to do that. You don't know he's do it?
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Can I take it?
Speaker 3 (23:47):
Now?
Speaker 1 (23:48):
Let me take that on his value. It's not hard
at all to do it right, and I do it right.
And if you think I've been wrong on anything, tell
me I'm not trying to censor you, and then let's
have the conversation.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
But you're going to have to get specific, because I'll
tell you what.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
I wasn't put on this planet to worship any human
or any political party, and I don't. But my job
on this show is to find and speak the truth,
and that's what I do all the time. And so
I don't play the political games that you're talking about.
And I take great pride in that, and I pay
a great price for it. By the way, my friend,
(24:24):
if I just wanted to come on this show and
be a show for the right, that would make my
life a whole lot easier.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
But I don't do that.
Speaker 1 (24:32):
So if you think I'm wrong about that, give me
a specific Otherwise I'm not going to sit here and
take this kind of crap from you.
Speaker 3 (24:40):
How about it? So the the way you call the
left evil, and I think you've grown to overuse the
word evil.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Okay, let's start with this show. When did I call
the left evil?
Speaker 3 (24:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
I don't know, Joe, back it up or pack.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
It up, okay, if I'm sure, Okay, I didn't. I
don't have your transcript in front of me.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
No, no, no, no, Because you don't have the facts because I.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
Never said it times. I've heard it myself. I you,
I've heard it myself. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Well, then then you were listening to some other show.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
All right, how about this, Uh, do you think Donald
Trump lost the election?
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (25:28):
And I've said that a million times. And you know what, Joe,
Let's let's start with that.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
Do you think you Okay.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
No, let's start with your apology to me, because I've
said that a million times and and it believed me
has caused me all sorts of trouble. So if I
do what you say I do, wouldn't I have just
said Trump lost the election because that's the popular point
of view with the majority of Republicans.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
Oh pardon me what? Thank you Ryan for correcting me.
But wouldn't I say that?
Speaker 3 (26:01):
Show?
Speaker 1 (26:01):
If I'm doing what you accuse me of doing, wouldn't
I have just come out and said no.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
Trump won the election?
Speaker 3 (26:06):
Last couch overtime? Sure?
Speaker 2 (26:08):
Yeah, but I didn't do that. I called it as
I saw.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
On your show. You had a lot of people on
your show that were pushing that that stall.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
Okay, well, let's talk about that for a second show.
Let's talk about that. So are you telling me that
when the attorney for the sitting president of the United
States of America wants to come on my show and
make her case as to why she believes Trump won,
that I should say no to the attorney for the
(26:35):
sitting president, that I should censor her.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
Oh but how hard? How long? How much time did
you give it to provide proof?
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Oh, I'd give her all the time she wants. I'd
give her all the time she wants. But I had
the courage to stand there and.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
Say it in January sixth. I've had all that leeway.
There's no challenge against No.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
No, no, wait a second, you wait a second, answer
my question directly. Are you saying, because some on the
left do that that the attorney for the sitting president
should not be allowed on my show to try to
make her case that the election was stolen, that I
should just censor that and not give the attorney for
the sitting president the opportunity to make her.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
Case, which I did not agree with.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
By the way, Oh yes I did, Joe.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
No, no, no, no, you withdrew. You drew the question back
because you knew the answer.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
You regularly challenged their assertions every time.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
I repeatedly said Joe that I did not see proof
the election was stolen, repeatedly, and which, by the way,
was not a popular position and caused me a lot
of flack that continues to this day.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
So I have done the opposite.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
I have done the Oh what I said repeatedly, Joe,
and you told me if you disagree what I said
repeatedly is there are enormous and legitimate questions about what
Americans saw unfold on election night, which doesn't prove the
election was stolen. But there are questions that deserve an answer,
(28:12):
and we've never been given the answer to Do you
disagree with me on that? Yes, okay, then why don't
you hang on and come back in the next segment
and tell me why? Because what we know, and I
said it at the time, is on election night, we
saw Donald Trump up big in a lot of states,
and then all of a sudden, we saw a turnaround
and he lost by just enough to lose the race, which,
(28:34):
as I've said repeatedly, does not mean the election was stolen.
I've said repeatedly I've never seen proof the election was stolen.
But this caller wants to deny that that phenomena doesn't
create big and fair questions that need to be answered
for the health of the Republic.
Speaker 2 (28:51):
I'd love to hear his explanation for that. You're on
the Dan Capla.
Speaker 6 (28:54):
Show and now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Flemente, former FBI's special.
Speaker 10 (29:02):
Agent on CNN, it says that he's not first, he's
not suicidal.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
Apparently he wasn't.
Speaker 10 (29:08):
Going to take his own life if he was almost
being captured. Clearly, we saw that he was captured without that,
and it tells me that he's probably much more politically motivated.
The last shooter in Pennsylvania, I don't want to say
his name because I don't want to promote him in
any way, but he was clearly a guy that was
looking for the notoriety of taking that shot. I would
think we're going to find that this guy's extremely politically motivated,
(29:30):
and that he probably was spurred on by much of
the political diatribes that are going on these days, talking
about Trump equating him to Hitler and things like that.
So I don't think this is the last we'll see.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
If crazy he's out there trying to do this.
Speaker 9 (29:42):
Now.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Color Joe no fan of mine or Trump's Joe, do
you think this FBI special agent is right and that
we'll probably find this was politically motivated because of all
this hate speech against Trump comparing him to Hitler and
he'll be the end of democracy, etc.
Speaker 3 (30:01):
Yeah, I think absolutely. That's part of the problem that
goes back to the beginning of my call, where you know,
I wish there was a way to stop that.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Rhetoric, but don't vote for those people.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Are you going to vote for Kamala because she's saying
all that stuff.
Speaker 3 (30:19):
That's what I'm talking about, Dan, So.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
Question rumps, no, no, no, no, no, no drive bys. I
got to put my friend Tom, Joe. Is it on hold?
My friend Joe on hold? I'm sure I have a
friend Tom somewhere. Joe, Please no drive bys on this show.
Are you going to vote for her despite all.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
That rhetoric, I'm voting for neither of them.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Oh, okay, who are you going to vote for?
Speaker 3 (30:46):
You know, I'm just going to pick somebody that isn't
a Republican Democrat. And now, after seeing what's coming out
of the Libertarian Party's mouth about anyone killing Harris should
be considered a hero, I'm.
Speaker 2 (30:59):
Who said that politics who said that.
Speaker 3 (31:02):
The New Hampshire Libertarian Party post it is sweet.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
Yeah, that's uh.
Speaker 11 (31:06):
I thought the first that connection of the Libertarian Party
has posted New Hampshires is particularly bad.
Speaker 2 (31:12):
That's horrific. I would suggest you vote for Ryan Shuling.
I accept you know I.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Would vote for Ryan. I'd vote for you, Dan, actually,
because I've been listening to you for decades. You're a
great guy, great show, even though I like to argue
with you on certain things because we live at the
world differently. But thank you.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
We just cut our next promo, but I do appreciate it. Well,
Joe call us often? Would you?
Speaker 3 (31:41):
I call every once in a while, but call let's
to wrap up the show. Thank you so much more
of any well.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
Appreciate it your good sport.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
Thank you, Joe eight five five for zero five eight
two five five the number I get where.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
Joe's coming from. But just a real quick thought, Dan,
do you think he really would vote for me? Yeah?
I do well to say that.
Speaker 11 (31:59):
Quite frankly, I think a lot of listeners feel more
closer personal connection to somebody that you, that they can
talk to, that they have access to. Look how Kamala
and Joe both hide oh and yeah, to Joe's point
is real quick, there are so many media outlets that
are so biased to the left. A lot of what
Dan and I are doing, we're just trying to kind
of CounterPunch that, and there needs to be an outlet
(32:19):
and a venue for.
Speaker 6 (32:20):
That for listeners to hear that.
Speaker 11 (32:22):
So while we will call things out on the right
that's being done, people on the left aren't being called out, Joe.
So that that's part of the lifting that I feel
that Dan and I are obligated to do.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Yeah, listen, I think it's real simple in this job,
and that is it's a relentless search for the truth.
And one thing about having this job, no matter who
has this kind of job anywhere, there is nowhere to hide, right.
I mean, we take callers on the show, ask Kelly,
she's still awake back there?
Speaker 3 (32:49):
Right?
Speaker 1 (32:50):
We take Carly and I say that because she's playing
hurt today. She's really sick. But she's here anyway, which
everybody else in the building appreciates greatly.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
Thank you, Kelly, best come in here on the best.
It's an incubator back there.
Speaker 10 (33:05):
No.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
But but that's the thing is we take calls. Kelly
doesn't screen these calls for content, you know, and so
we're not going to censor anybody. So if I'm wrong
about something, that's going to get exposed real quick.
Speaker 2 (33:17):
Right.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
So that's what this show is. It's it's a relentless
search for the truth. And there is nowhere to hide.
And there aren't many places you can find that in
America right now. And I'm not perfect. I just do
my best to find it and talk it. Damn the consequences,
and uh yeah, I think I've lived up to that.
And if you think I'm wrong, the beautiful thing is
you can call the show and point it out, and
(33:40):
I will have nowhere to hide, nowhere to hide if
I'm wrong on something. Ryan, speaking of which, big story
today was going to be that a disastrous interview of
Kamala Harris' is on a local.
Speaker 2 (33:54):
ABC affiliate on that.
Speaker 1 (33:56):
Yeah, but obviously this second assassination attempt of try. The
other thing is we're going to get in that bizarro
sound of Watts and his wife at that rally. She's something,
Oh my lord, And I think if the Trump campaign
did nothing other than run the tape of those two things.
Harris's interview Friday night in Philadelphia the full tape, and
(34:18):
you talk about a journalistic corruption. What does the ABC
affiliate and Philly do something we never would have done here.
They edit out, they cut up, and the interview is
only what like eleven minutes to begin with, correct, and
they cut it up to try to make her sound coherent.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
That is just that's the opposite of journalism.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
But obviously, from the so called debate and other things
we've seen, that's the state we find ourselves.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
Some noble exceptions which were grateful for Kelly. Thank you
for playing Hurt. I know that could not have been easy.
Really appreciate it. Ryan, great job is always. Please join
us tomorrow on The Dankapital Show.

Speaker 2 (00:15):
Anybody had could.
Speaker 1 (00:15):
Have seen this coming yesterday. Right, it's completely unsatisfactory, but
it goes way, way, way beyond that, this idea that oh,
somebody might get into those bushes and into those trees
and be able to take a shot at the president
as he plays golf. There's been video circulating for a
long time of a video taken through the fence as
Trump is on the golf course. Right now, this was
(00:38):
a known vulnerability. And yes, thank god for the great
Secret Service agent who did his or her job so
wonderfully and spotted this monster. But come on, it never
should have got to that. That street should have been
shut down Trump before Pennsylvania, before the first assassination attempt.
Speaker 2 (00:54):
Can't believe I have to say those words.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Trump should have received the same level of security as
a saying president before Pennsylvania, the Biden White House knew
that he was under active assassination threat from Iran. That
Irun wanted to assassinate him. They knew that. On top
of that, Aroun had put out a video showing how
they were going to assassinate him on his golf course.
(01:17):
So he should have had the same level of protection
as a sitting president before Pennsylvania and absolutely inexcusable that
he didn't have that yesterday. That street should have been closed.
There never should have been a scenario where somebody could
lie and wait in those bushes for twelve hours. Now
we know, we were told today that may have been
the case because of cell phone data picked up. There's
(01:39):
always a chance the cell phone was planted there connected
to the GoPro. But one way or the other, this
thing was in the works twelve hours before at that
golf course, and authorities told us today that wait a second,
this golf was a last minute add So is there
a leak inside?
Speaker 2 (01:55):
Where is that from? Is he working with somebody else?
Speaker 3 (01:58):
You know?
Speaker 1 (01:58):
CNN reporting in the last few minutes says breaking news
that authorities are looking at whether he was working with
somebody else. Now, of course they're going to look at
that as part of any investigation. This headline supports the
implication that they might have more.
Speaker 2 (02:13):
Information on that.
Speaker 1 (02:15):
Also, the FBI now labeling it a quote extremely serious
assassination attempt. I didn't know there was any other kind,
but that may suggest that there's additional evidence unfolding.
Speaker 2 (02:26):
You look at this.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
Assassin, and you look at how calm he was, how
pleased he was after arrest, immediately invoking his right to counsel, etc.
And at this point you can't take any possibility off
the table, right except this we have on two separate occasions,
now had had a deliberate decision made by the White House.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
Well, now I.
Speaker 1 (02:54):
Say that that's my assumption that it's made by the
White House to not provide Trump with the with the
full level of protection he needs.
Speaker 2 (03:03):
And it seems like a no brainer.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
He should have had full presidential level protection prior to Pennsylvania.
Speaker 2 (03:09):
So who do you blame for this? How do you
fix it?
Speaker 1 (03:12):
A couple of the questions we're kicking around this afternoon.
You can text me d A N five seven seven
thirty nine call eight five five four zero five eight
two five five the number. President Trump blames Biden and Harris.
He said this this afternoon on Fox Quote he referring
to the assassin believe the rhetoric of Biden and Harris,
(03:34):
and he acted on it. Their rhetoric is causing me
to be shot at when I am the one who
is going to save the country and they are the
ones that are destroying the country, both from inside and out.
So that what the President told Fox this afternoon. Do
you agree with him on that? Eight five five for
zero five eight two five five the number? Here's President Trump.
(03:58):
You may remember one of his you know, that's the
funny thing. He missed so many opportunities that a lot
of people forget. He had a lot of really strong
moments in that September ten Fax debate, and here's one
of them.
Speaker 4 (04:12):
This is the one that weaponized, not me, she weaponized.
I probably took a bullet to the head because of
the things that they say about me. They talk about democracy.
I'm a threat to democracy. They're the threat to democracy.
Rather fake Russia, Russia, Russia investigation.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
A lot nowhere listening to that fraud then from ABC
interrupt him, right because Trump's making a good point, and.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
So he wants to interrupt him. What a disgrace to journalism.
Speaker 1 (04:39):
Eight five five or zero five eight two five five
text d A n five seven, seven, three nine. I'll
get to some of those right now. Dan, I do
not trust the DOJFBI or Secret Service. Hope de Sanus
does not release Ryan Routh. If he does, or will
likely be Epstein that from Alexa, Thank you, Alexa. I
do think we need a nine to eleven tight commission investigation,
(05:01):
and it needs to be rocket docketed. I mean, I
think the agencies have to stay involved and do their
normal thing, but this has to rise to the level
of a nine eleven type investigation because guess what, it's
not going away, right And we've seen this throughout history
aimed at some particularly positive impact.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Players, and Donald Trump has been one of those.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
You know that you're going to have multiple people trying
to take him out because they don't like the change
he's bringing. I mean, you know, we obviously saw what
happened to John Kennedy, we saw what happened to Doctor King,
We've seen what happened to Bobby Kennedy. We've seen's what
they tried to do to Reagan, We've seen what's happened
to a lot of great figures in American and world history.
(05:46):
So they're not going to try to stop trying to
take Trump out, and you can't just trust it now
to the normal bureaucratic process. Right now, there's a CNN
report that Trump and Biden had a quote cordial conversation
this afternoon.
Speaker 2 (06:01):
I imagine that they did.
Speaker 1 (06:03):
I mean, come on, Ryan, Biden put a Trump had
on last week, right, I took.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
It on Air Force one with it.
Speaker 1 (06:10):
But that conversation was more cordial this time around. Dan,
Let's face it, anyone was going to guess where Trump
might be, it would be at a golf course. Remember
the stats and how much golf he played during the presidency.
I can only imagine he continues at the same pace
or more. He played a lot less golf than Obama did.
I can tell you that much, and a whole lot
(06:31):
less beach time than Biden. But anyway, yeah, listen, hey,
is there a scenario where once knowing whether this assassin
acted alone or with others, once knowing that Trump was
at mar A Lago, that they would guess that he
would be at the golf course on Sunday.
Speaker 2 (06:47):
Sure, that's that's a possibility.
Speaker 1 (06:49):
It's also a possibility they had inside information authority saying
today that golf was a very late ad. But but yeah,
of course that's a possibility. All I'm saying is we
need to be sure the Maryria can people need to
have confidence. And even more important than that, no disrespect
to all of us, is we need to get to
the bottom of what's really happening here so we can
best protect Trump moving forward. A he's likely to be
(07:13):
our next president, but whether he is or not, he
deserves that.
Speaker 2 (07:17):
Level of protection.
Speaker 1 (07:18):
The sheriff saying in the jurisdiction that took him into
the assassin into custody that he was very relaxed. Quote
looked like he was going out to dinner. So Dan
interesting on this one. Used an AK forty seven, a
weapon preferred by some groups rather than other weapons.
Speaker 2 (07:37):
Just saying.
Speaker 1 (07:39):
Dan eliminated, meaning eliminated from the position of president by
not voting for him. Stop saying they meant to kill him,
unless you know for a fact.
Speaker 2 (07:47):
Thank you.
Speaker 1 (07:47):
I've never said they meant to kill him ever, not once,
not once. And I actually defended Jason Crowe on the
statement that the Trump camp has criticized him ver saying
that Trump is an extreme threat to our democracy or
words to that effect. I've defended craw on that because
to me, while Crows one hundred percent wrong, it's really
(08:10):
Harris and Biden and others there in the cabal who
are the extreme threat to our democracy. I don't think
that we can now go around censoring anybody, whether it's
Jason Crow or anybody else, for engaging in hard hitting
political rhetoric. Now context matters, right, I mean, if somebody
(08:31):
comes out right after an assassination attempt on Trump and
uses certain kind of words in that context, it may
clearly be intended to or or may be viewed as
a call to violence. I'm talking about just this kind
of Hey, let's fight, let's win the war, Let's win
this battle, go give it all we have. There's all
(08:52):
sorts of metaphorical rhetoric in politics that we should not
now have to abandon because it might trigger some job.
So I'll defend Crow on that, But it's like obscenity.
You know it when you see it, right, And there
are some things that just go beyond. And I'm not
saying this Democrat congressman, and he said this, it was
(09:14):
before the first assassination attempt. I don't remember the date.
I'm not saying that. Dan Goldman was calling for somebody
to kill Trump. I'm just saying that under these circumstances,
he should be absolutely aware that this kind of language,
which I say goes beyond normal political rhetoric, that this
kind of language might trigger somebody.
Speaker 5 (09:36):
Just unquestionable at this point that that man cannot see
public office again. He is not only unfit, he is
destructive to our democracy and.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
He has to be he has to be eliminated. Seems
like it speaks for itself.
Speaker 1 (09:54):
Texter eight five five was there a five A two
five five text DA and five seven seven through nine.
Speaker 2 (10:00):
Can we come back?
Speaker 1 (10:00):
I do want to slip this in, though today mostly
devoted to the second assassination attempt. Can't believe I have
to say that who do you blame? How do we
fix it? But when we come back, I'm want to
give you some great distilled polling information that I think
will again put a smile on your face. That's what
we're here for right here on the Dan Kapla Show.
Speaker 6 (10:22):
And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
I want to ask you Martha.
Speaker 7 (10:26):
Ritis about her comments about the military. She said during
the debate this about the US military.
Speaker 2 (10:35):
Let's listen.
Speaker 8 (10:37):
As of today, there is not one member of the
United States military who is in active duty in a
combat zone in any war zone around the world. The
first time this century, our.
Speaker 7 (10:50):
Fout checkers found that to be false. And I have
a lot of experience in that area as well. There
are currently nine hundred US military personnel in Syria twenty
five one hundred US troops in a rock all have
been under regular threat from drones and missiles for months.
Speaker 2 (11:07):
We also have action.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Yeah, I just wanted to let you hear that because
that's Martha Ratus on Radit's pardon me on ABC ABC
fact checking Leo a week too late, right. And then
what was so confirming is this Governor Morrah Heally from Massachusetts.
Harris surrogate then wouldn't concede the point and just dodged
her the same way that Harris does. It is truly
(11:31):
a pure post truth era. And I'm not saying that
President Trump doesn't, you know, tell a whopper every now
and then.
Speaker 2 (11:38):
I mean, I'm not saying.
Speaker 1 (11:39):
That, but I'm just talking about systematic lies, and the
left systematically lies. The truth means nothing to them, and
it's part of this lack of morality on the part left.
I'm not saying democrats aren't moral, but the secular left
that controls a democratic party, there's no morality, and they
look at people who tell the truth as weak. And
(12:02):
also this idea of political violence. It's been part of
the playbook of the left. Not saying democrats, but the left,
and they run the party now for a long long time.
We cannot allow this as the new normal in America.
Let's go to the phone lines.
Speaker 2 (12:17):
Who do you blame? How do we fix it?
Speaker 1 (12:18):
But I want to let you know a couple of
things real quick, and then deliver on a tease, kind
of a fun tease. And that is, first of all,
you know, the left is getting killed right now. Harris
is really in trouble in this race because now Trump
did a really good job in the debate on this
that there is so much focus now on the open
(12:40):
borders and the consequence of the open borders and the
TDA gang, etc. Whether it's out of Aurora or elsewhere.
And then this story, one of the stories that grabbed
attention was the allegation that, you know, some immigrants were
eating dogs or cats or whatever the story is. And
as I've said before, I don't know whether that's is
(13:00):
true or not, but clearly the left is losing its
mind over it, because, along with other things, anything that
calls attention to what Kamala Harris and Joe Biden did
at the border and the horrible consequences for this country
is Harris is kryptonite. So the left now is trying
(13:20):
to shut down discussion of anything that calls attention to that.
So the left now zeroed in on these terrible, awful,
despicable bomb threats in Springfield. But the Republican governor just
a short time confirmed that all of these bomb threats,
according to the governor, are from overseas, and most, if
(13:42):
not all, are from the same country. So obviously all
of these threats are bogus. All of these threats are
politically motivated. But the left trying to use what the
governor says are these bogus overseas threats to shut down
discussion on this issue.
Speaker 2 (13:57):
Eight fo five for zero five eight two five five.
Speaker 1 (13:59):
Number and wherever the truth lies, let it come out,
whatever the truth is. But the whole idea of censorship,
which is what the left's all about, because the facts
crush the left, is another one of these grave dangers
for this country should Harris win. Back to the phone lines,
Let's go to Joe in Denver, Colorado. You're on the
Dan Kaplis Show.
Speaker 3 (14:19):
Welcome Joe, Hi Dan, thanks for having my call. Sure,
I think I think basically all of us are. All
of us are to blame for We're kind of where
the rhetoric is that. I don't know if you saw
this also in the news about the New Hampshire Libertarian
(14:40):
Party posting a tweet saying anybody who kills Kamala Harris
will be considered a hero.
Speaker 1 (14:48):
Hey, Joe, let me ask you this. All of us
are to blame. I'm not to blame. I assume you're
not to blame, So why would you start with that?
Speaker 2 (14:56):
I'm curious.
Speaker 3 (14:58):
I think we we don't hold ourselves to high enough standards.
And I don't want to get into a fight now
with you about no. No, no, I.
Speaker 1 (15:06):
Don't want to fight, Joe. I'm glad you call, but
I'm not to blame for anything. I'm not to blame
for anything, and I'm sure you're not either, So why
would you start with that? Isn't it real important that
we just get to the raw truth about who is
to blame and just have the courage, whether.
Speaker 2 (15:23):
Out there on the left or right.
Speaker 1 (15:25):
And I think this has been part of the left's
playbook for a long time. Shouldn't we just have the
courage and honesty to point that out?
Speaker 3 (15:35):
Yeah, but I don't think you have the courage are
honest pointing out that happens on the right to near
equal or sometimes more extent then it happens on the left.
Speaker 2 (15:47):
Well, let's have the conversation, Joe. Let's have the conversation.
Speaker 1 (15:50):
Because what I do have the courage to do, and
I've done it for almost thirty years, is sit here,
since there nobody unlike these unlike these cowards on the left,
I censor nobody. Everybody's allowed on air, and I'll let
them say anything they want to about me, but it's
back it up or pack it up. So you are
welcome to be here. You're welcome to stay through the
break and make whatever case you want against the right.
(16:14):
I'll give you all the time you want to do that,
but I'll challenge you if I think you're wrong or
you're not backing it up. But Joe, what I'm focused
on to start with is why would you say, quote
all of us are to blame. That's normally a very
weak sort of you know, hey, it's all of our
fault kind of thing, when it's obviously not true.
Speaker 2 (16:35):
You're not to blame for any of this, Right.
Speaker 3 (16:38):
It's lot easier to say it's everybody else's fault and
not double check to make sure I'm not part of
the book.
Speaker 1 (16:45):
Are you part of the problem, Joe, let's start with that.
Let's talk about Joe, are you part of the problem.
Speaker 3 (16:52):
I don't think I'm part of the problem. Okay, great
with people in a straightforward, honest way, and I'm able
to both point out the positives of both sides and
the negatives of both beautiful and then I give a
net balance of where I think things lie.
Speaker 2 (17:07):
That's a great way to live. Chose. So all I'm
saying is is.
Speaker 1 (17:10):
Let's just not start with quote all of us are
to blame, because clearly you're not and I'm not.
Speaker 2 (17:17):
So let's talk about who is. And if you're the guy,
please start there.
Speaker 1 (17:24):
You know how much we love talking about me here,
so start there and and tell me why I'm to blame.
Speaker 3 (17:30):
Well, blame sometimes it's tough, but you're obviously an advocate
for the for the right and conservative values. Everything you
present is geared towards supporting that side, diminishing the left,
which are not democrats. Uh, you know, subliminal guy there.
(17:50):
But uh uh you know you. I find you leave
pieces of an argument.
Speaker 1 (17:59):
Cho let's do this. Let me ask you if you
heard the show today. For example, did you hear me
defending Jason Crowe against an attack from the Trump campaign
about twenty minutes ago? And why don't you stay? Because
I want you to stay, my friend. I want you
to have all the time you need to make your case,
whether it's against me or anybody else. But I'm going
(18:21):
to call it the way I see it, and I'm
going to back it up, and the chips fall where
they may.
Speaker 6 (18:27):
You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.
Speaker 5 (18:31):
Just unquestionable at this point that that man cannot see
public office again. He is not only unfit, he is
destructive to our democracy and.
Speaker 2 (18:43):
He has to be he has to be eliminated.
Speaker 1 (18:46):
Wow, Democratic Congressman Dan Goldman. That was in the past,
but speaks for itself. You know it is remarkable to
me because I just listen. I'm the furthest thing from
perfect right A work in progress. But I try really,
really hard to be a very moral person, and I
(19:07):
can't imagine life without at least that effort, without that
being kind of a focal point. And I think probably
ninety nine point nine percent of the folks listening are
the same way. Hey, we're flawed, but at the core
of our life is wanting to be really moral people
and working toward that and valuing those core virtues, starting
(19:28):
with honesty. But you look at the left right now,
and CNN is one glaring example of that. Kamala Harris
is the single worst offender I've seen in my lifetime
when it comes to dishonesty. But they just have no
regard for honesty whatsoever, none. And it is so dangerous, right,
(19:49):
It's so dangerous to this nation for all the obvious reasons,
but also to the moral health of the nation moving forward.
Imagine if she went since she's rewarded for the But
I'm just at the latest example of CNN has this
big headline up Ohio governor deployers troopers to school amid
dozens of bomb threats.
Speaker 2 (20:09):
What they're not.
Speaker 1 (20:09):
Telling you is that same Ohio governor came out a
short time ago and said, all these threats are bogus.
They're from overseas, and it looks like all may be
from the same country.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
But CNN doesn't want to.
Speaker 1 (20:22):
Tell you that, right Wow, eight ffy five for zero
five A two five five the number. Obviously, today we're
focused on the second assassination attempt of Trump, which clearly
shouldn't Every honest person be able to agree with this.
That street should have never been opened. Trump before Pennsylvania
should have had the same level of protection as a
sitting president for all the obvious reasons, including the Biden
(20:46):
White House knew before Pennsylvania that Iran was actively attempting
to assassinate Trump, and even after Pennsylvania, that street next
to the fifth and six holes is open. Come on,
Iran is actually put out of video showing it killing
Trump on his golf course. And if I remember right, Ryan,
we'll look at that video during the next break. I
(21:08):
know you're looking at some kind of video now, but
I don't think that's the Ironian video.
Speaker 2 (21:12):
During the next break. I think that video.
Speaker 1 (21:15):
That video showed their automated drone going through the bushes
next to the golf course. So how does this administration,
how does this White House not close down those streets,
because bottom line is he should have had the same
level of protection. How could anybody argue otherwise? Dwayne in Denver,
(21:36):
you're on the Dan Kaplis Show.
Speaker 9 (21:37):
Welcome, Well, thank you, good aving, thank you for speaking
with David. Sure you had an earlier caller that mentioned
about Trump naming his own three top people for security.
I would expand on that to him having his complete
own security because I know there's an egg people that
(22:01):
would yeah, hoops and protection.
Speaker 2 (22:06):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (22:07):
And you have.
Speaker 9 (22:08):
A story of the Secret Service firing into the bushes
and not hitting I'm ex militaria. It was just a panache,
But I know there's guys hits a heck a lot
better than they seem.
Speaker 2 (22:23):
To be doing well it joined.
Speaker 1 (22:25):
I think at this point we have to be very
grateful for the Secret Service agent who spotted him right,
and then as we get more information through the investigation, obviously,
well we'll have a better feel for what those angles were,
et cetera. And we also have information this guy had
ceramic plates. I don't know if those came into play
or they were just in the bag in terms of
the private security right that they've been offered doing They've
(22:48):
been offered by lots of people, but at this point,
obviously for practical reasons, that wouldn't work. Hey, Joe in
Denver was kind enough to stay. And Joe had started
his segment by saying, we're all to blame or words
to those effects. I challenged him on that because I
don't think Joe's to blame for any of this, and
I know I'm not, so.
Speaker 2 (23:07):
We've already covered that part of it.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
But Joe, I wanted to give you a chance to
say whatever you wanted to say.
Speaker 3 (23:14):
Well, thanks, and before I hope when I said you
didn't have the courage to challenge some things, I mean
it wasn't necessarily meant as mean as it probably came across.
But you know, just you know, just being willing. And
it's hard as an advocate and opinion host to go
(23:36):
and present the full, complete truth and full story.
Speaker 2 (23:42):
Joe, Can I take it?
Speaker 3 (23:44):
It's hard to do that. You don't know he's do it?
Speaker 2 (23:46):
Can I take it?
Speaker 3 (23:47):
Now?
Speaker 1 (23:48):
Let me take that on his value. It's not hard
at all to do it right, and I do it right.
And if you think I've been wrong on anything, tell
me I'm not trying to censor you, and then let's
have the conversation.
Speaker 2 (24:00):
But you're going to have to get specific, because I'll
tell you what.
Speaker 1 (24:02):
I wasn't put on this planet to worship any human
or any political party, and I don't. But my job
on this show is to find and speak the truth,
and that's what I do all the time. And so
I don't play the political games that you're talking about.
And I take great pride in that, and I pay
a great price for it. By the way, my friend,
(24:24):
if I just wanted to come on this show and
be a show for the right, that would make my
life a whole lot easier.
Speaker 2 (24:31):
But I don't do that.
Speaker 1 (24:32):
So if you think I'm wrong about that, give me
a specific Otherwise I'm not going to sit here and
take this kind of crap from you.
Speaker 3 (24:40):
How about it? So the the way you call the
left evil, and I think you've grown to overuse the
word evil.
Speaker 1 (24:49):
Okay, let's start with this show. When did I call
the left evil?
Speaker 3 (24:57):
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (24:59):
I don't know, Joe, back it up or pack.
Speaker 3 (25:02):
It up, okay, if I'm sure, Okay, I didn't. I
don't have your transcript in front of me.
Speaker 2 (25:10):
No, no, no, no, Because you don't have the facts because I.
Speaker 3 (25:12):
Never said it times. I've heard it myself. I you,
I've heard it myself. Yeah.
Speaker 2 (25:16):
Well, then then you were listening to some other show.
Speaker 3 (25:20):
All right, how about this, Uh, do you think Donald
Trump lost the election?
Speaker 2 (25:27):
Yes?
Speaker 1 (25:28):
And I've said that a million times. And you know what, Joe,
Let's let's start with that.
Speaker 3 (25:32):
Do you think you Okay.
Speaker 1 (25:34):
No, let's start with your apology to me, because I've
said that a million times and and it believed me
has caused me all sorts of trouble. So if I
do what you say I do, wouldn't I have just
said Trump lost the election because that's the popular point
of view with the majority of Republicans.
Speaker 2 (25:55):
Oh pardon me what? Thank you Ryan for correcting me.
But wouldn't I say that?
Speaker 3 (26:01):
Show?
Speaker 1 (26:01):
If I'm doing what you accuse me of doing, wouldn't
I have just come out and said no.
Speaker 2 (26:05):
Trump won the election?
Speaker 3 (26:06):
Last couch overtime? Sure?
Speaker 2 (26:08):
Yeah, but I didn't do that. I called it as
I saw.
Speaker 3 (26:11):
On your show. You had a lot of people on
your show that were pushing that that stall.
Speaker 1 (26:15):
Okay, well, let's talk about that for a second show.
Let's talk about that. So are you telling me that
when the attorney for the sitting president of the United
States of America wants to come on my show and
make her case as to why she believes Trump won,
that I should say no to the attorney for the
(26:35):
sitting president, that I should censor her.
Speaker 3 (26:39):
Oh but how hard? How long? How much time did
you give it to provide proof?
Speaker 1 (26:45):
Oh, I'd give her all the time she wants. I'd
give her all the time she wants. But I had
the courage to stand there and.
Speaker 3 (26:51):
Say it in January sixth. I've had all that leeway.
There's no challenge against No.
Speaker 1 (26:57):
No, no, wait a second, you wait a second, answer
my question directly. Are you saying, because some on the
left do that that the attorney for the sitting president
should not be allowed on my show to try to
make her case that the election was stolen, that I
should just censor that and not give the attorney for
the sitting president the opportunity to make her.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
Case, which I did not agree with.
Speaker 1 (27:22):
By the way, Oh yes I did, Joe.
Speaker 2 (27:28):
No, no, no, no, you withdrew. You drew the question back
because you knew the answer.
Speaker 3 (27:33):
You regularly challenged their assertions every time.
Speaker 1 (27:35):
I repeatedly said Joe that I did not see proof
the election was stolen, repeatedly, and which, by the way,
was not a popular position and caused me a lot
of flack that continues to this day.
Speaker 2 (27:49):
So I have done the opposite.
Speaker 1 (27:51):
I have done the Oh what I said repeatedly, Joe,
and you told me if you disagree what I said
repeatedly is there are enormous and legitimate questions about what
Americans saw unfold on election night, which doesn't prove the
election was stolen. But there are questions that deserve an answer,
(28:12):
and we've never been given the answer to Do you
disagree with me on that? Yes, okay, then why don't
you hang on and come back in the next segment
and tell me why? Because what we know, and I
said it at the time, is on election night, we
saw Donald Trump up big in a lot of states,
and then all of a sudden, we saw a turnaround
and he lost by just enough to lose the race, which,
(28:34):
as I've said repeatedly, does not mean the election was stolen.
I've said repeatedly I've never seen proof the election was stolen.
But this caller wants to deny that that phenomena doesn't
create big and fair questions that need to be answered
for the health of the Republic.
Speaker 2 (28:51):
I'd love to hear his explanation for that. You're on
the Dan Capla.
Speaker 6 (28:54):
Show and now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.
Speaker 2 (29:00):
Flemente, former FBI's special.
Speaker 10 (29:02):
Agent on CNN, it says that he's not first, he's
not suicidal.
Speaker 2 (29:08):
Apparently he wasn't.
Speaker 10 (29:08):
Going to take his own life if he was almost
being captured. Clearly, we saw that he was captured without that,
and it tells me that he's probably much more politically motivated.
The last shooter in Pennsylvania, I don't want to say
his name because I don't want to promote him in
any way, but he was clearly a guy that was
looking for the notoriety of taking that shot. I would
think we're going to find that this guy's extremely politically motivated,
(29:30):
and that he probably was spurred on by much of
the political diatribes that are going on these days, talking
about Trump equating him to Hitler and things like that.
So I don't think this is the last we'll see.
Speaker 3 (29:40):
If crazy he's out there trying to do this.
Speaker 9 (29:42):
Now.
Speaker 1 (29:42):
Color Joe no fan of mine or Trump's Joe, do
you think this FBI special agent is right and that
we'll probably find this was politically motivated because of all
this hate speech against Trump comparing him to Hitler and
he'll be the end of democracy, etc.
Speaker 3 (30:01):
Yeah, I think absolutely. That's part of the problem that
goes back to the beginning of my call, where you know,
I wish there was a way to stop that.
Speaker 2 (30:09):
Rhetoric, but don't vote for those people.
Speaker 1 (30:12):
Are you going to vote for Kamala because she's saying
all that stuff.
Speaker 3 (30:19):
That's what I'm talking about, Dan, So.
Speaker 1 (30:22):
Question rumps, no, no, no, no, no, no drive bys. I
got to put my friend Tom, Joe. Is it on hold?
My friend Joe on hold? I'm sure I have a
friend Tom somewhere. Joe, Please no drive bys on this show.
Are you going to vote for her despite all.
Speaker 3 (30:36):
That rhetoric, I'm voting for neither of them.
Speaker 2 (30:40):
Oh, okay, who are you going to vote for?
Speaker 3 (30:46):
You know, I'm just going to pick somebody that isn't
a Republican Democrat. And now, after seeing what's coming out
of the Libertarian Party's mouth about anyone killing Harris should
be considered a hero, I'm.
Speaker 2 (30:59):
Who said that politics who said that.
Speaker 3 (31:02):
The New Hampshire Libertarian Party post it is sweet.
Speaker 2 (31:05):
Yeah, that's uh.
Speaker 11 (31:06):
I thought the first that connection of the Libertarian Party
has posted New Hampshires is particularly bad.
Speaker 2 (31:12):
That's horrific. I would suggest you vote for Ryan Shuling.
I accept you know I.
Speaker 3 (31:18):
Would vote for Ryan. I'd vote for you, Dan, actually,
because I've been listening to you for decades. You're a
great guy, great show, even though I like to argue
with you on certain things because we live at the
world differently. But thank you.
Speaker 2 (31:31):
We just cut our next promo, but I do appreciate it. Well,
Joe call us often? Would you?
Speaker 3 (31:41):
I call every once in a while, but call let's
to wrap up the show. Thank you so much more
of any well.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
Appreciate it your good sport.
Speaker 1 (31:47):
Thank you, Joe eight five five for zero five eight
two five five the number I get where.
Speaker 2 (31:51):
Joe's coming from. But just a real quick thought, Dan,
do you think he really would vote for me? Yeah?
I do well to say that.
Speaker 11 (31:59):
Quite frankly, I think a lot of listeners feel more
closer personal connection to somebody that you, that they can
talk to, that they have access to. Look how Kamala
and Joe both hide oh and yeah, to Joe's point
is real quick, there are so many media outlets that
are so biased to the left. A lot of what
Dan and I are doing, we're just trying to kind
of CounterPunch that, and there needs to be an outlet
(32:19):
and a venue for.
Speaker 6 (32:20):
That for listeners to hear that.
Speaker 11 (32:22):
So while we will call things out on the right
that's being done, people on the left aren't being called out, Joe.
So that that's part of the lifting that I feel
that Dan and I are obligated to do.
Speaker 1 (32:34):
Yeah, listen, I think it's real simple in this job,
and that is it's a relentless search for the truth.
And one thing about having this job, no matter who
has this kind of job anywhere, there is nowhere to hide, right.
I mean, we take callers on the show, ask Kelly,
she's still awake back there?
Speaker 3 (32:49):
Right?
Speaker 1 (32:50):
We take Carly and I say that because she's playing
hurt today. She's really sick. But she's here anyway, which
everybody else in the building appreciates greatly.
Speaker 2 (32:58):
Thank you, Kelly, best come in here on the best.
It's an incubator back there.
Speaker 10 (33:05):
No.
Speaker 1 (33:05):
But but that's the thing is we take calls. Kelly
doesn't screen these calls for content, you know, and so
we're not going to censor anybody. So if I'm wrong
about something, that's going to get exposed real quick.
Speaker 2 (33:17):
Right.
Speaker 1 (33:19):
So that's what this show is. It's it's a relentless
search for the truth. And there is nowhere to hide.
And there aren't many places you can find that in
America right now. And I'm not perfect. I just do
my best to find it and talk it. Damn the consequences,
and uh yeah, I think I've lived up to that.
And if you think I'm wrong, the beautiful thing is
you can call the show and point it out, and
(33:40):
I will have nowhere to hide, nowhere to hide if
I'm wrong on something. Ryan, speaking of which, big story
today was going to be that a disastrous interview of
Kamala Harris' is on a local.
Speaker 2 (33:54):
ABC affiliate on that.
Speaker 1 (33:56):
Yeah, but obviously this second assassination attempt of try. The
other thing is we're going to get in that bizarro
sound of Watts and his wife at that rally. She's something,
Oh my lord, And I think if the Trump campaign
did nothing other than run the tape of those two things.
Harris's interview Friday night in Philadelphia the full tape, and
(34:18):
you talk about a journalistic corruption. What does the ABC
affiliate and Philly do something we never would have done here.
They edit out, they cut up, and the interview is
only what like eleven minutes to begin with, correct, and
they cut it up to try to make her sound coherent.
Speaker 2 (34:34):
That is just that's the opposite of journalism.
Speaker 1 (34:38):
But obviously, from the so called debate and other things
we've seen, that's the state we find ourselves.
Speaker 2 (34:43):
Some noble exceptions which were grateful for Kelly. Thank you
for playing Hurt. I know that could not have been easy.
Really appreciate it. Ryan, great job is always. Please join
us tomorrow on The Dankapital Show.
