This episode of the Dan Caplis Show is a must-listen for anyone concerned about the future of Colorado. The host dives into the importance of the upcoming election, specifically the Attorney General race, where Michael Allen is running against Jenna Griswold. But that's not all - the conversation also touches on some disturbing trends in the state, including the alarming number of children being subjected to chemical castration and surgical mutilation.
The episode covers a range of topics, from the dangers of Iran's regime and the potential consequences of President Trump being assassinated, to the grassroots efforts of Protect Kids Colorado, a group working to ban these procedures and protect children's rights. The conversation also delves into the importance of standing up for what's right, even in the face of overwhelming opposition.
One of the most striking aspects of this episode is the discussion around the Protect Kids Colorado initiative, which aims to ban chemical castration and surgical mutilation of children. The group's efforts are led by Erin Lee, who shares some shocking statistics and insights into the scope of the problem. It's a powerful reminder that even in the face of adversity, individuals can make a difference.
If you're concerned about the future of Colorado and the well-being of its children, this episode is a must-listen. Tune in to hear the full conversation and learn more about the important work being done by Protect Kids Colorado and Michael Allen's campaign for Attorney General.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Dan Caplis and welcome to today's online podcast
edition of The Dan Caplis 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. He is some
of the developments of today. I think we see a
changing landscape. So that's going to be on our agenda
(00:21):
as well. Three oh three seven one three eight two.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Five five d an five seven seven three nine.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
Of course, as always, we start local, and there's a
lot going on locally and no real update in the
GOP primary for governor at this point. The vote totals
seem frozen until they get done with the cure tabulations, right,
you know those ballots that were cast but there was
some alleged impropriety or concern with the ballot, and then
(00:46):
the voter has an opportunity to cure. So we have
no idea if we're talking about five ballots or fifty
thousand ballots, but we should know by Friday. So Michael Allen,
he's the GOP nominee for Attorney General, and I know
normally maybe you know, that wouldn't sound like a big deal.
To you, or none of us would would sweat it
(01:06):
too much. But in this moment where in now, two
things make this an enormously important race in Colorado, and
I really do hope you consider looking into that race,
maybe getting involved in that race. It's extra important for
two reasons. One is obviously that the GOP needs a
statewide officeholder.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
And even if you.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Don't like the GOP, at this point, you know the
Dems are whack right, they're just socialists. They've dropped the mask.
So it's in everybody's best interests that we have some
balance in terms of statewide power in this state. And
Michael Allen has a very real chance twin it's highly qualified.
DA down and I'll pass, so he'll be with us
(01:47):
at five oh six. You can judge for yourself. But
here's the other reason it's enormously important, and that is
because the opponent is Jenna Griswold. And again, you may
be a Democrat and you may be unaffiliated. We have
a lot of Republican listeners. But the point being, this
isn't your usual Republican good Democrat bad thing.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
This is a case where.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
This is one of the worst possible candidates on the
face of the years to be the Colorado Attorney General,
and Jenna Griswall and many many Democrats agree with that.
Now they probably won't be willing to say it publicly,
but they're going to vote against her, and they're probably
going to tell their friends and neighbors to vote against her.
There's a lot of turmoil in the Democratic Party. Not
(02:29):
because all of a sudden that the Democratic Party is
a shift in its ideology or values, or is moving to.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
The writer or any of that. No, not at all.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
It's because they know Jenna Griswoll and her own former
staffers have come out and said they're afraid of her
abusing power. But above all, starting point I shouldn't say
above all starting point is she's obviously not qualified. She
has a law license, but she hasn't been a practicing
lawyer for many years, and there are a lot of
concerns that she didn't practice for more than a few months.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Then she lies and.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Says she argued to the US Supreme Court a hyperpartisan,
very vindictive person hasn't been according to staff, hasn't some staff,
hasn't been able to keep staff. Very very dangerous situation
for Colorado because We've had a lot of Democrat attorney generals,
who've had a lot of Republican attorney generals. We've never
had an attorney general who anybody had to be afraid
(03:22):
of abusing their power to punish political enemies. You know,
it's a whole different critter here. So there is a
real chance to win statewide and a profound need to
win statewide. So I'm sure you have a busy life,
and their demands on every dollar you have, you know,
whether you have fifty or fifty million, But this race,
(03:43):
it's worth your attention, and I think we all have
a very vested interest in it. So Michael Allen at
five six, how are you doing back there today?
Speaker 3 (03:52):
I'm doing tremendous today, are you Dad?
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Good?
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Good? Thank you.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
I got to tell you know, you know what I'm
excited about before this year as well as long term.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
I'm really excited about the Colorado Rockies.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
I'm feeling pretty optimistic about their future right now. You got,
you know, a lot of young players getting better.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
T J.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Rumsfield might win an l Rookie of the Year.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Yeah, and they've got some other exciting rookies. And I
like the fact that Broncos have bought forty percent of them,
and I like the new management they have been.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
I'm just excited about where they're going.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
They're more fun to watch right now than a lot
of winning teams, and they're trying. They're trying on the
field each day, and they're going in the right direction.
So I'm excited about the long term future there three
or three seven one three eight two five five d
an five seven seven three nine. Hey, another story I'm
going to get too early in the show today is
this new law regarding team drivers that requires team drivers
(04:46):
to take drivers' education right before getting out on the Broadway.
How in the world you know, who's the genius who
decided we no longer have that in Colorado? Somebody who
obviously hates kids, and it just idiotic. But the change
has been made. But I want to talk to you
about some deeper issues there. Is it enough training? Do
(05:09):
we need to do more? Other ways we can make
our roadways safer? Because I'm going to give you value
added today. I'm going to give you some really important
numbers really about just how dangerous our roads are. I mean,
you know from being out there right now that they're
getting a whole lot more dangerous. But I'm going to
give you the numbers behind that, and then you'll have
(05:29):
that information as power. Right, you'll have that, which a
lot of people don't. But then also, what are we
going to do with it? Because think about how crazy
it is right now that you're probably on the road
listening in this show and your family. I mean, if
you're married, you know your wife, your kids, your husband,
your kids, that they all depend on you, and the
(05:50):
greatest threat that you will be taken from them or
that your child may not come home tonight is our roadways.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
So you would think the.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Starting point is any kind of civilized, sane society that
above all wants to protect our loved ones and then
ourselves after that would be okay, how can we make
these roadways as safe as they can reasonably be and
still be able to move around and do the things
we want to do. But yet it's the last of
governments considerations. It's clear when you look at the laws
(06:20):
of this state that are so incredibly lax when it
comes to people who kill people on the roads, people
who paralyze people on the roads, that the criminal laws
are so light, so easy, so lax it's mind boggling.
But I do want to do the light the candle
(06:42):
thing and get into some solutions. But I want to
get you those core facts first because I think you'll
like having those in your arsenal, and I think it
will get all of us motivated to review just how
bad it is becoming Colorado and we'll talk about the
wis right.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
You can't fix it without talking about the wiz, you see.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Speaking of why why Florida is driving right now, it's
because of Ron DeSantis and Republican rule. Are you old
enough to remember the guy who almost beat him? Came
within a handful of votes of beating DeSantis the Democrat?
Speaker 2 (07:13):
Remember now, which is funny.
Speaker 4 (07:14):
I've got family in Florida, so I was plugged in
on that election, but I can't remember the guy's name now.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Yeah yeah, And did you see where he just got
busted again on a heroin charge?
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Whoa yeah? Yeah? So think about how the things that
just so dramatically.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Affect the world. You know, just a few votes go
the other way and Florida is being ruled by this
psycho far left Democrat heroin addict, and instead they get
Rond DeSantis in a great model for the whole country.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
So yeah, it's funny how life works that way.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
But speaking of which, and I know many Texters want this,
thank you for that in your suggestions and update on
our kitten challenge since I've mentioned on the show yesterday
we don't have cats because you know, our daughter's allergic
to cats, so we don't have cats. But we all
like cats, we just haven't been around them for many years.
And then all of a sudden that there are a
(08:09):
whole bunch of kittens living under our back patio in
a space that used to be occupied by a whole
bunch of monnies, but now there are a whole bunch
of kittens. So I got a lot of good suggestions
on the show. And you know what I did when
I went home last Night' say, I got from King
Souper or something I have never bought in my whole life,
cat food. So I got a little kitten food. We're
smelling stuff in the world. Oh, it comes in a
(08:31):
little tub, and I was looking at it as I'm
taking it out of the tub, and I'm putting it
on these plates. And the only paper plates I had,
ironically were US center plates because Joe before he went
to law school, worked in the US Center for two
different senators. So I'm serving this ugly it looks like
that the worst possible pink meat loaf you could ever imagine,
(08:51):
pulling it out of this tub individual servings savory chicken
and putting it on these two separate at the US
Senate place and bringing it out and putting it in
the bushes near this hole.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Under the patio.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
And then I'm watching and watching and watching, and nothing happens.
So I go to bed, and then Amy sends me
this video this morning, and you got.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
These four kittens out there.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
All the food's gone, They're jumping around, they're playing, they're
tackling each other, they're climbing all over the patio furniture.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
It was just so cool to see. So that is adorable. Yeah,
I'll show you the video during the break. So I'm
gonna we're gonna keep these kittens alive.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
And then getting a lot of suggestions on how to
get them properly, safely packaged up, take them to a
no kill shelter. So and you have the thoughts on
that appreciated. Hey, when we come back, President Trump clearly
believes that he may soon be assassinated. I'll give you
those details and then talk about kind of the unimaginable
horror for the world, for this country if President Trump
(09:56):
is assassinated as he believes, maybe a You're on the
Dan Kapitler Show.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
Now back to the Dan Kapler Show podcast.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Does he fire John if the emo you dead?
Speaker 5 (10:13):
That's a very interesting question to me. I think it's over.
I don't want to deal with him any with this scum.
You know what scum is.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
There's gum, there's sick people.
Speaker 5 (10:24):
They're lit by sick people, and they're vicious, violent people,
and if they had a nuclear weapon, they'd use it.
As far as I'm concerned, it's over. I'll speak to
our negotiators. They want to negotiate. They're good people, Steve Woodcuff,
Jared Kushier, but they have to come back to me.
As far as I'm concerned, it's just a waste of
(10:44):
time dealing with them.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
They're liars.
Speaker 5 (10:47):
We make a deal, and if I make a deal
with him, we have a deal, and he goes out,
he talks, we make a deal. Everyone's agreed, no nuclear weapon.
We make a deal. They go outside and talk to
the press. They say, we never even talked about it.
There's something wrong with him there, cuckoo s as.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
I'm concerned you sob.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
And then the President was asked, well, why do you
feel differently about these Iranian leaders now than you did
when you were praising him a few weeks ago? And
we get one of the all time great responses from
President Trump.
Speaker 6 (11:21):
It was President Tyler Pager with the New York Times.
Last month you said Iranian leaders were very rational people
and nice people to deal with, strong people, smart people.
Today you said they were scum, sick people and being
led by sick people.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
What changed? And do you think I got to know?
Speaker 1 (11:38):
That has to be one of the great Trump lines
of all time. I got to know him. So you know,
Trump is.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
A master of piece through strengths.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
And let's hope that what that's what this is right now,
and that this evil regime comes to its senses right
because I think Trump is determined to be a peacemaker.
He has been a proven peacemaker around the globe.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
But it is peace through strength.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Now if this is a case, and it may very
well be, where you just run into evil in its
rawst form, evil that for its own twisted version of
its faith believes that it's its calling now to trigger
the end of the world and to have the Twelfth
(12:24):
Emam arrive through that chaos. Then the President's not going
to have any choice, you know, he is going to
have to do what he has to do in order
to protect American interest. Easy for me to say from
the comfort of a radio studio, right, because that will
that will not be easy. Because presidents from both parties
have let Iran get to this point, the evil regime
(12:47):
get to this point. Then the only way to prevent
what's an inevitable nuclear catastrophe in the world will be
a very violent removal of that regime. And it will
be an awful, ugly thing to experience with many American
casualties and many other casualties, and many innocents dying because
(13:09):
the evil regime puts the innocence between them and in
the forces of good. So yeah, hopefully President Trump's toughness
will will be enough to instill some sanity there. It
hasn't been so far, but let's hope and pray that
it is, because he's clearly coming to the end of
(13:31):
the line with them, you know, as he should be.
And maybe it's factoring into this as well. I mean,
after all, the guy's only human, right, and that is
he referenced three times today that I counted Zach the
president reference three times today assassination and talked very openly
about how he is number one on Iran's list. There
have been multiple attempts already. My guess is that he
(13:54):
has some new current information because he did not he's
not taken on the return trip the plane he took
over there.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
You know, he took that, as you know, he took
that plane donated by Cutter. Right.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
Cutter donated that plane. I believe you're right, Yeah, donated
that plane, and he took that over there. But he's
not taking it back. He's taking one of the old
versions of air Force one, the VC twenty five A
version of air Force one. He's taking that home, he
says it, so the troops in Europe can see the
new air Force one. I don't think anybody's buying that.
(14:31):
The widespread speculations, speculation among the so called experts, is
that he's taking the old style VC twenty five.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
A home because it's known to have.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Highly classified defensive systems on that version of Air Force one.
So yeah, President very open today three times that he
believes there's a real danger he'll be assassinated, and let's
pray for many, many reasons that that does not happen.
What do you what do you think would happen if
(15:04):
Iron made that mistake.
Speaker 4 (15:07):
It's it's really scary to imagine all the all the
fallout and you know what could happen as a result
of that. I just think it would definitely explain why
you've seen such a hard turn in you know, Trump's
perspective on all this, Even as the negotiations might have
been rocky in the past, it wasn't at all like
we saw today, where he was extremely curt extremely cold,
(15:29):
you know, calling him Scott like he was angry. And
if he thinks they're trying to kill him, that I
would explain it.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
Yeah, No, that's right.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
And I don't think that anger would be for necessarily
just his own life. Right, because he showed such courage
and taking out Solamani, that terrorist general, he knew that
that would put a target on his back. I think
he's a physically courageous guy who's willing to die for
his country. I think it probably ticks him off to
think of the impact that would have on his family,
(15:57):
the impact that would have on this nation. And you know,
it goes back to Butler, because i'd, like some others
and the President, believe that God did have a hand
in saving him in Butler. And then the question becomes, Okay,
for what purpose? And then the bigger question of I
personally believe that that and this is just one guy's belief, right,
(16:19):
that God saved Trump and that Butler Field because of
the horror it would have caused to this nation and
by extension, to the world if the President's life had
been taken that way. And I do think the President
has in the past and is right now going on
to do great and very moral work. Doesn't mean he's perfect.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
He's not.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
None of us are. But compared to the alternative, both
of his presidencies have been on a scale of one
to ten in terms of morality, morality of public policy,
morality of public government actions. I'd say both of his
administrations have been a seven or eight and the Democrats
(17:04):
have been a negative two or three. So in terms
of morality in action in public action, yeah, I think
that I think that the loss of Trump, if iron
makes the mistake of taking Trump out. The loss of
Trump is going to unleash that horrific havoc in the world.
(17:27):
I mean, obviously, I mean, you've got to believe at
this point it's something he's discussed with JD. Vance and
that there would be a it would be the end
of that regime.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
But again, you've got a regime.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
There's a very real chance the regime wants that again
because of their twisted view of their faith, and it's
built right into their constitution. There's this whole idea of
unleashing this kind of chaos early next on the Dan
Kapla Show.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
You're listening to the Dan Kaplan Show podcast.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
That's a very interesting question to me.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
I think it's over. I don't want to deal with
him any with this scum. You know what scum is.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
There's gum, there's sick people.
Speaker 5 (18:14):
They're lit by sick people, and then they're vicious, violent
people and if they had a nuclear weapon, they'd use it.
As far as I'm concerned, it's over. I'll speak to
our negotiators. They want to negotiate. They're good people, Steve Woodcuff,
Jared Kushier, but they have to come back to me,
as far as I'm concerned, it's just a waste of
(18:34):
time dealing with them.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
They're liars. We make a deal, and if I make a.
Speaker 5 (18:39):
Deal with him, we have a deal, and he goes out,
he talks, We make a deal, everyone's agreed, no nuclear weapon.
We make a deal. They go outside, talk to the press.
They say, we never even talked about it. There's something
wrong with them. They're cuckoo. Far as I'm concerned, your solvers.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
So that against the backdrop of President Trump three times
to talking about how he believes he may be assassinated,
and then reportedly taking a separate plane home than the
gift from Cover some forty seven that he took there,
He's taking an old style Air Force one home. According
(19:18):
to media reports, it has more advanced defensive measures, et cetera.
Let's go to the vip line. We're so fortunate to
have Aaron Lee in this state and on this show,
Aaron who accomplished what I'm not sure anybody else ever
has in getting these three different important ballot measures on
primarily through largely through a grassroots effort. And we'll talk
(19:40):
a little bit about those because as we head into
this election cycle, I think it should be top priority
on everybody's list to pass those. But then on top
of that, Aaron, who I follow every day on ex
Aaron had a really important post about some new information
regarding children's hospital Aeron Welcome back to the Dan Kapli Show.
Speaker 7 (19:58):
Hey Dan, thanks for having and you are correct it
has never been done before. We accomplish it protectives with
these three ballot measures all volunteer.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Yeah, and let's start with that. Where can people go
to learn more about them? And I think it's time
when we all have to start, you know, putting a
little money into this, whether whatever we can afford, whether
it's a dollar or a bunch of dollars, putting time
into it.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
Where can people go to do that?
Speaker 7 (20:23):
Thank you? Yes, it's protect Kids Colorado dot org. And
we are entirely grassroots, so from funding to manpower, we're
one hundred percent volunteer. We have no major funder, but
we do have the power of this massive grassroots army.
We had thirty three hundred and twenty seven volunteer position circulators.
(20:45):
Well that made this possible getting on the ballot. So
we've proven the impossible can be done when people just
say yes and do their little part, but collectively we
can do such big things. But that includes funding the
effort as well, and we've really just need fun to
make sure people have yard signs and pass out cards
and everything that they need to be having important conversations
(21:07):
in their own sphere of influence all over those states.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
And my guess is it has probably been better and
better for the ultimate passage of this that you didn't
have some major funder that this had to come from
the people, and so many people have skin in the
game now and have put that effort in. It seems
to me that's the kind of engine that has a
better chance of getting it across the finish line.
Speaker 7 (21:29):
Totally. In hindsight, yes, I'm very glad that it worked
out the way it did. It would have been great
to be able to pay circulators or pay people to
go out and get signatures. Didn't happen that way, And
I'm now in hindsight, very grateful that we have this
volunteer effort and so many people involved having conversations. And really,
I always say, shipping culture in addition to changing policy,
(21:50):
that is arguably as or more important than passing these
measures themselves.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
Yeah, and I think what you've done. Also, Aaron, you're
in your army is I think you've tapped into existing
culture across party lines that the left was trying to
convince us had died, but it hadn't, and you gave
people a voice, a way to express it. No, wait
a second. I may normally vote Democrat, but I don't
(22:17):
agree with this. Boys shouldn't be in girls' sports, boys
shouldn't be in girls' locker rooms. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (22:23):
I've really found that protecting kids is a great unifier.
It's like this universal line in the sand that transcends
political or faith, you know where you lie on those spectrums.
It really has brought people together, and you're right, people
who had never voted before carry These people who had
never volunteered or engaged in anything political carried the petitions
(22:44):
and over forty percent of the signatures were not from conservatives.
So it really shows that I believe these are the
biggest thing going for us during the November election. It's
going to really drive people out to vote and engage
people who otherwise would not have paid attention.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Yeah, and all these Democrat candidates are going to have
to answer on this now they were protected in the
Wiser Bennett debate. They weren't even asked the question, which
was bizarre, but that was to protect them. But all
the candidates are going to have to answer to it.
And again the point of that is not, oh, it'll
be good for the Republicans not the Democrats. The point
of it is people should have to stand up in
(23:21):
answer for this because nobody can defend boys and girls' sports.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
Nobody can do it.
Speaker 7 (23:27):
They're very common sense measures. And two years ago, actually
the New York Times pulled this and found that the
girls sports in particular was an eighty twenty issue amongst
Democrats two years ago. We've moved the needle even further
since then. So I really think this is going to
drive a lot of people out to vote for good
candidates on the down ballot.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
Yeah, no, exactly.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
And now, Aaron, you had an important post today about
Children's hospital and some new information there.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
What's up.
Speaker 7 (23:55):
Yeah, well, this is interesting. A Rocky Mountain Boys dropped
a really good kind of a hit on Children's Hospital Colorado.
That Do No Harm, which is a great organization that
we work closely with, put out what's called to Stop
the Harm Database. It stopped the Harm Database dot Com
encourage everyone to go there, and it showed that over
(24:16):
a four year period, just based on public insurance data,
show the numbers of kids who have undergone this chemical
castration and surgical mutilation. And what they found was a
Colorado ranked number ten in the worst places where this
is happening. Over sixty hospitals are performing these procedures on children,
(24:37):
just based on public insurance data. But what this investigation
from Rocky Mountain showed is that during this lawsuit between
Children's Hospital Colorado and the families who were suing them
to resume these procedures, it came out in court documents
and both sides agreed that annually eight hundred kids had
(24:57):
received these procedures in twenty twenty four and twenty twenty four,
but insurance data only showed about twenty two kids per year,
So there's this huge discrepancy. Of course, some of that
is attributed to self pay. It didn't include Kaiser permanente.
But what we suspect, especially based on w Pass, which
is now under has been sued by the FTC, is
(25:19):
fraudulent coding is a big part of this that these
health systems are intentionally using the wrong billing codes in
order to conceal the amount of kids that they're actually mutilating.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Oh my lord, and now Aaron, for those new to
this issue, when you talk about chemical castration surgical mutilation,
what are you talking about.
Speaker 7 (25:39):
Yeah, so this is the puberty blockers and wrong sex hormones.
So administering what are typically chemical castration drugs that they
give to sex defenders. Lupron is given to sex offenders
in prison. This is one of the most common puberty
blockers that they're given to minor children as young as
eight in Colorado. Colorado Medicaid website she recommend starting this
(26:01):
at panner stage two, which is age eight in this state.
So chemical castration drugs that when a child takes these
puberty blockers that suppress their normal human development into wrong
sex hormones. So for example, giving estrogen and high amounts
to a young man, they are one hundred percent rendered
sterilized when they take the puberty blockers into the cross
(26:23):
sex hormones. So this is crazy amounts of kids, very
high numbers that are being sterilized under the guise of
gender affirming care here in Colorado. And then the surgeries
are the double masks stectomies and the poul classes where
they are rejecting their sex surgically.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
I hope all these kids come back and sue the
hell out of all these doctors and all these hospitals,
and I hope they do. I hope they do, because
they would that the people getting sued would deserve it
and the people doing the suing would deserve it. That
the problem is that the money can't bring them back,
It can't bring their life back, but maybe it can
(27:00):
protect others.
Speaker 7 (27:02):
It's truly irreversible. What's happening to them? Because are the
some of the most invasive procedures that are happening to kids.
And what's really scary, Dan, A lot of people don't
know this is that in twenty twenty five, we passed
the law Senate Bill one twenty nine that actually made
it impossible to pursue civil action against the butchered.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
Oh I didn't hear about that.
Speaker 7 (27:22):
The course of action?
Speaker 2 (27:23):
How does that work?
Speaker 7 (27:23):
In senebil one twenty nine. So they made it illegal
to subpoena the doctors, and they essentially eliminated any civil
course of action for people who have been harmed. And
then also there's this two year Statute to Limitations, and
most of these kids have this. It takes more than
two years for them to understand what's happened to them.
Their brains aren't fully formed, and by the time they
figure it out, their two year Statute of limitations as
(27:46):
lap very hard for them to pursue recourse.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
A couple of thoughts here, Thank you for mentioning this
Senate Bill one twenty nine, because I'm not familiar with it,
but I'm going to look at it during the break.
And then the other issue is for these kids. I
believe there were be hope on the two year Statute
of Limitations because normally for a minor that can be
told until they turn eighteen and in some cases even
an older age, depending on the circumstances. But Erin, thank
(28:12):
you for educating me on that, because I can't believe
such a thing.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
It'd be constitutional to.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Just kind of out this group of people who are
mutilating kids and say, oh, kids, you can't sue them.
Speaker 7 (28:23):
Well, we tried two years in a row. Representative Geograph
ran an extension to the Statute of Limitations, and both
times it was unilaterally killed by Democrats in the Kill Committee.
But I do anticipate this could be a future ballot
measure PIDs. Right now, we're focused on banning the procedures
to stopping them in their tracks so we don't create
any more victims. But in the future we hope to
(28:43):
give them a way to fight back.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
Well, thanks for the phenomenal work you're doing. Thanks for
educating me on this other issue today. I look at
that during the break and then keep up the great work.
Speaker 7 (28:53):
Thanks Dan, Thank.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
You that as Aaron Lee Protect Kids Colorado. You're on
the Dan Caplace Show.
Speaker 3 (29:03):
Now back to the Dan Kapli Show podcast.
Speaker 6 (29:07):
Tyler Pager with The New York Times. Last month, you
said Iranian leaders were very rational people and nice people
to deal with, strong people, smart people. Today you said
they were scum, sick people and being led by sick people.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
What changed? And do you think I got to know.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
A little levity and a really really heavy day when
it comes to Iran. The US mounting strikes again this afternoon,
and the President saying the Memo of Understanding is dead
in his view, and really ripping this evil regime in
a way that I haven't heard him before, and also
talking about the fact three times today that he believes
(29:46):
Iran has targeted him for assassination. And then, according to
media reports, I'm not on the plane. I don't know,
according to media reports, taking a different version of Air
Force one home from NATO, not the version he went thereon,
which was the one donated by Cutter. Qatar s I
made that mistake, Quitar, and then I should know better.
And then, according to media reports, he took the old
(30:11):
style Air Force one home because it has better defensive technologies.
So three out three someone three eight two five five
d an five seven seven three nine. Got a lot
of great texts coming in. I'll get to all of those,
but I don't even want to think about what would
happen if Iran was successful in their evil attempts to
(30:35):
assassinate the president. What it would mean for this nation
the world start with the president and his family. Yeah,
but he believes it's very, very real, and I believe
him when he says it is three ot three someone
three eight two five five d an five seven seven
three nine. So what does it mean in your mind
for what the US should do now with Ron?
Speaker 2 (30:58):
Because the choice is clear, right.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
I was talking about it on air a couple of
days ago before all this popped up. The evil regime
has concluded the President Trump won't fight, that he won't
fight further, and that.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
He can be mocked, this nation can be mocked.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
That will boost the standing of the evil regime in
the halls of horror and terror around the world, and
that is clearly their play right now. But again, to
change that, to change what is the unfortunate new status
quo would involve, I think everybody agrees a military action
(31:31):
on a massive scale, with lots of US casualties and
lots of innocent people on the ground who are essentially
hostages of this evil regime, you know, also being caught
in the crossfire.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
So what do you think the US should do here?
Three h three seven one three.
Speaker 1 (31:48):
Eight two five five d an five seven seven three nine. Hey,
thank you to Aaron Lee for being on with us
in the last segment and talking about, you know, the
latest information available regards how many of these chemical castration
surgical mutilations are actually going on in the state and
the information she had and via a Rocky Mountain Voice
(32:09):
report in that Saidigenall's group that does tremendous work, I
hope you read it every day, is far far far
more of these mutilations are going on than had been
previously reported because the prior reports were normally based on
insurance information. But then you get into, as Aaron pointed out,
issues of are some people out there miscoding? Are other
(32:31):
people's self pain? And it looks like far more of
these are occurring. So to me, it's one of the
really cool things about this job over the decades being
on air is and especially now that it's been so
many decades, get some historical perspective, and it isn't often
that somebody like aaronly emerges, and no matter where you
(32:53):
are politically, that somebody emerges from the grassroots because of
something terrible that was done to their family and then
decides they're not just going to complain about it or
play the victim. They're going to go out there and
change the world. It's a really really hard sustained work,
and she has, I mean, putting these three ballot measures
(33:14):
in front of the people, all the work that goes
into that and doing it grassroots, it's almost impossible, and
they're also very important. We're focused mainly in today's conversation
on the one that would keep boys out of girls' sports,
but then you have the other that we also talked
about that would prevent you know, chemical these chemical castrations
(33:36):
of kids. Really important stuff, and it's so cool, just
historically to see this bubble up, especially at a time
when the Left is just having its way with Colorado.
But as Aaron said, you know, sixty percent of their signatures,
you know, came from people who aren't Republicans, and that
(33:56):
the fact they had to get an on grassroots instead
of some big sugar daddy or sugar mommy, I think
just gives them and Doss such a better chance to win.
So two things I'd ask you to consider, and one
is it takes some serious, serious time to look at
Protect Kids Colorado website and decide whether you want to
(34:19):
get involved, boots on the ground and whatever money you
can afford, because no matter where this state is haded
in terms of elective office in the fall, and we
know what's likely there, it's not inevitable, but it's likely
no matter where it's headed in elective office, if there
is a real chance to win these ballot measures and
to save a lot of kids and change the trajectory
(34:41):
of the state towards sanity, and then the other thing
I'd ask you to think about. When you get a chance,
just google up Michael Allen. He's the GOP candidate for
Attorney General in Colorado. He'll be with us after the break.
But that race is always going to be important. It's
one hundred times more important in this cycle. There is
a real chance to win, and his opponent, the Democrat,
(35:04):
is so obviously unqualified for office, wrong for office. Somebody
who lied about arguing to the US Supreme Court hasn't
been a practicing attorney. Many Democrats are uncomfortable with Jenna Griswold.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
So real chance to win. Michael Allen next
This is Dan Caplis and welcome to today's online podcast
edition of The Dan Caplis 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. He is some
of the developments of today. I think we see a
changing landscape. So that's going to be on our agenda
(00:21):
as well. Three oh three seven one three eight two.
Speaker 2 (00:23):
Five five d an five seven seven three nine.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
Of course, as always, we start local, and there's a
lot going on locally and no real update in the
GOP primary for governor at this point. The vote totals
seem frozen until they get done with the cure tabulations, right,
you know those ballots that were cast but there was
some alleged impropriety or concern with the ballot, and then
(00:46):
the voter has an opportunity to cure. So we have
no idea if we're talking about five ballots or fifty
thousand ballots, but we should know by Friday. So Michael Allen,
he's the GOP nominee for Attorney General, and I know
normally maybe you know, that wouldn't sound like a big deal.
To you, or none of us would would sweat it
(01:06):
too much. But in this moment where in now, two
things make this an enormously important race in Colorado, and
I really do hope you consider looking into that race,
maybe getting involved in that race. It's extra important for
two reasons. One is obviously that the GOP needs a
statewide officeholder.
Speaker 2 (01:25):
And even if you.
Speaker 1 (01:25):
Don't like the GOP, at this point, you know the
Dems are whack right, they're just socialists. They've dropped the mask.
So it's in everybody's best interests that we have some
balance in terms of statewide power in this state. And
Michael Allen has a very real chance twin it's highly qualified.
DA down and I'll pass, so he'll be with us
(01:47):
at five oh six. You can judge for yourself. But
here's the other reason it's enormously important, and that is
because the opponent is Jenna Griswold. And again, you may
be a Democrat and you may be unaffiliated. We have
a lot of Republican listeners. But the point being, this
isn't your usual Republican good Democrat bad thing.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
This is a case where.
Speaker 1 (02:07):
This is one of the worst possible candidates on the
face of the years to be the Colorado Attorney General,
and Jenna Griswall and many many Democrats agree with that.
Now they probably won't be willing to say it publicly,
but they're going to vote against her, and they're probably
going to tell their friends and neighbors to vote against her.
There's a lot of turmoil in the Democratic Party. Not
(02:29):
because all of a sudden that the Democratic Party is
a shift in its ideology or values, or is moving to.
Speaker 2 (02:35):
The writer or any of that. No, not at all.
Speaker 1 (02:37):
It's because they know Jenna Griswoll and her own former
staffers have come out and said they're afraid of her
abusing power. But above all, starting point I shouldn't say
above all starting point is she's obviously not qualified. She
has a law license, but she hasn't been a practicing
lawyer for many years, and there are a lot of
concerns that she didn't practice for more than a few months.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
Then she lies and.
Speaker 1 (03:01):
Says she argued to the US Supreme Court a hyperpartisan,
very vindictive person hasn't been according to staff, hasn't some staff,
hasn't been able to keep staff. Very very dangerous situation
for Colorado because We've had a lot of Democrat attorney generals,
who've had a lot of Republican attorney generals. We've never
had an attorney general who anybody had to be afraid
(03:22):
of abusing their power to punish political enemies. You know,
it's a whole different critter here. So there is a
real chance to win statewide and a profound need to
win statewide. So I'm sure you have a busy life,
and their demands on every dollar you have, you know,
whether you have fifty or fifty million, But this race,
(03:43):
it's worth your attention, and I think we all have
a very vested interest in it. So Michael Allen at
five six, how are you doing back there today?
Speaker 3 (03:52):
I'm doing tremendous today, are you Dad?
Speaker 1 (03:54):
Good?
Speaker 2 (03:54):
Good? Thank you.
Speaker 1 (03:55):
I got to tell you know, you know what I'm
excited about before this year as well as long term.
Speaker 2 (04:00):
I'm really excited about the Colorado Rockies.
Speaker 4 (04:02):
I'm feeling pretty optimistic about their future right now. You got,
you know, a lot of young players getting better.
Speaker 1 (04:07):
T J.
Speaker 3 (04:08):
Rumsfield might win an l Rookie of the Year.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Yeah, and they've got some other exciting rookies. And I
like the fact that Broncos have bought forty percent of them,
and I like the new management they have been.
Speaker 2 (04:20):
I'm just excited about where they're going.
Speaker 1 (04:23):
They're more fun to watch right now than a lot
of winning teams, and they're trying. They're trying on the
field each day, and they're going in the right direction.
So I'm excited about the long term future there three
or three seven one three eight two five five d
an five seven seven three nine. Hey, another story I'm
going to get too early in the show today is
this new law regarding team drivers that requires team drivers
(04:46):
to take drivers' education right before getting out on the Broadway.
How in the world you know, who's the genius who
decided we no longer have that in Colorado? Somebody who
obviously hates kids, and it just idiotic. But the change
has been made. But I want to talk to you
about some deeper issues there. Is it enough training? Do
(05:09):
we need to do more? Other ways we can make
our roadways safer? Because I'm going to give you value
added today. I'm going to give you some really important
numbers really about just how dangerous our roads are. I mean,
you know from being out there right now that they're
getting a whole lot more dangerous. But I'm going to
give you the numbers behind that, and then you'll have
(05:29):
that information as power. Right, you'll have that, which a
lot of people don't. But then also, what are we
going to do with it? Because think about how crazy
it is right now that you're probably on the road
listening in this show and your family. I mean, if
you're married, you know your wife, your kids, your husband,
your kids, that they all depend on you, and the
(05:50):
greatest threat that you will be taken from them or
that your child may not come home tonight is our roadways.
Speaker 2 (05:56):
So you would think the.
Speaker 1 (05:57):
Starting point is any kind of civilized, sane society that
above all wants to protect our loved ones and then
ourselves after that would be okay, how can we make
these roadways as safe as they can reasonably be and
still be able to move around and do the things
we want to do. But yet it's the last of
governments considerations. It's clear when you look at the laws
(06:20):
of this state that are so incredibly lax when it
comes to people who kill people on the roads, people
who paralyze people on the roads, that the criminal laws
are so light, so easy, so lax it's mind boggling.
But I do want to do the light the candle
(06:42):
thing and get into some solutions. But I want to
get you those core facts first because I think you'll
like having those in your arsenal, and I think it
will get all of us motivated to review just how
bad it is becoming Colorado and we'll talk about the
wis right.
Speaker 2 (06:58):
You can't fix it without talking about the wiz, you see.
Speaker 1 (07:01):
Speaking of why why Florida is driving right now, it's
because of Ron DeSantis and Republican rule. Are you old
enough to remember the guy who almost beat him? Came
within a handful of votes of beating DeSantis the Democrat?
Speaker 2 (07:13):
Remember now, which is funny.
Speaker 4 (07:14):
I've got family in Florida, so I was plugged in
on that election, but I can't remember the guy's name now.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Yeah yeah, And did you see where he just got
busted again on a heroin charge?
Speaker 2 (07:24):
Whoa yeah? Yeah? So think about how the things that
just so dramatically.
Speaker 1 (07:30):
Affect the world. You know, just a few votes go
the other way and Florida is being ruled by this
psycho far left Democrat heroin addict, and instead they get
Rond DeSantis in a great model for the whole country.
Speaker 2 (07:45):
So yeah, it's funny how life works that way.
Speaker 1 (07:48):
But speaking of which, and I know many Texters want this,
thank you for that in your suggestions and update on
our kitten challenge since I've mentioned on the show yesterday
we don't have cats because you know, our daughter's allergic
to cats, so we don't have cats. But we all
like cats, we just haven't been around them for many years.
And then all of a sudden that there are a
(08:09):
whole bunch of kittens living under our back patio in
a space that used to be occupied by a whole
bunch of monnies, but now there are a whole bunch
of kittens. So I got a lot of good suggestions
on the show. And you know what I did when
I went home last Night' say, I got from King
Souper or something I have never bought in my whole life,
cat food. So I got a little kitten food. We're
smelling stuff in the world. Oh, it comes in a
(08:31):
little tub, and I was looking at it as I'm
taking it out of the tub, and I'm putting it
on these plates. And the only paper plates I had,
ironically were US center plates because Joe before he went
to law school, worked in the US Center for two
different senators. So I'm serving this ugly it looks like
that the worst possible pink meat loaf you could ever imagine,
(08:51):
pulling it out of this tub individual servings savory chicken
and putting it on these two separate at the US
Senate place and bringing it out and putting it in
the bushes near this hole.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Under the patio.
Speaker 1 (09:06):
And then I'm watching and watching and watching, and nothing happens.
So I go to bed, and then Amy sends me
this video this morning, and you got.
Speaker 2 (09:14):
These four kittens out there.
Speaker 1 (09:16):
All the food's gone, They're jumping around, they're playing, they're
tackling each other, they're climbing all over the patio furniture.
Speaker 2 (09:23):
It was just so cool to see. So that is adorable. Yeah,
I'll show you the video during the break. So I'm
gonna we're gonna keep these kittens alive.
Speaker 1 (09:31):
And then getting a lot of suggestions on how to
get them properly, safely packaged up, take them to a
no kill shelter. So and you have the thoughts on
that appreciated. Hey, when we come back, President Trump clearly
believes that he may soon be assassinated. I'll give you
those details and then talk about kind of the unimaginable
horror for the world, for this country if President Trump
(09:56):
is assassinated as he believes, maybe a You're on the
Dan Kapitler Show.
Speaker 3 (10:05):
Now back to the Dan Kapler Show podcast.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
Does he fire John if the emo you dead?
Speaker 5 (10:13):
That's a very interesting question to me. I think it's over.
I don't want to deal with him any with this scum.
You know what scum is.
Speaker 2 (10:22):
There's gum, there's sick people.
Speaker 5 (10:24):
They're lit by sick people, and they're vicious, violent people,
and if they had a nuclear weapon, they'd use it.
As far as I'm concerned, it's over. I'll speak to
our negotiators. They want to negotiate. They're good people, Steve Woodcuff,
Jared Kushier, but they have to come back to me.
As far as I'm concerned, it's just a waste of
(10:44):
time dealing with them.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
They're liars.
Speaker 5 (10:47):
We make a deal, and if I make a deal
with him, we have a deal, and he goes out,
he talks, we make a deal. Everyone's agreed, no nuclear weapon.
We make a deal. They go outside and talk to
the press. They say, we never even talked about it.
There's something wrong with him there, cuckoo s as.
Speaker 2 (11:04):
I'm concerned you sob.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
And then the President was asked, well, why do you
feel differently about these Iranian leaders now than you did
when you were praising him a few weeks ago? And
we get one of the all time great responses from
President Trump.
Speaker 6 (11:21):
It was President Tyler Pager with the New York Times.
Last month you said Iranian leaders were very rational people
and nice people to deal with, strong people, smart people.
Today you said they were scum, sick people and being
led by sick people.
Speaker 2 (11:35):
What changed? And do you think I got to know?
Speaker 1 (11:38):
That has to be one of the great Trump lines
of all time. I got to know him. So you know,
Trump is.
Speaker 2 (11:44):
A master of piece through strengths.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
And let's hope that what that's what this is right now,
and that this evil regime comes to its senses right
because I think Trump is determined to be a peacemaker.
He has been a proven peacemaker around the globe.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
But it is peace through strength.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Now if this is a case, and it may very
well be, where you just run into evil in its
rawst form, evil that for its own twisted version of
its faith believes that it's its calling now to trigger
the end of the world and to have the Twelfth
(12:24):
Emam arrive through that chaos. Then the President's not going
to have any choice, you know, he is going to
have to do what he has to do in order
to protect American interest. Easy for me to say from
the comfort of a radio studio, right, because that will
that will not be easy. Because presidents from both parties
have let Iran get to this point, the evil regime
(12:47):
get to this point. Then the only way to prevent
what's an inevitable nuclear catastrophe in the world will be
a very violent removal of that regime. And it will
be an awful, ugly thing to experience with many American
casualties and many other casualties, and many innocents dying because
(13:09):
the evil regime puts the innocence between them and in
the forces of good. So yeah, hopefully President Trump's toughness
will will be enough to instill some sanity there. It
hasn't been so far, but let's hope and pray that
it is, because he's clearly coming to the end of
(13:31):
the line with them, you know, as he should be.
And maybe it's factoring into this as well. I mean,
after all, the guy's only human, right, and that is
he referenced three times today that I counted Zach the
president reference three times today assassination and talked very openly
about how he is number one on Iran's list. There
have been multiple attempts already. My guess is that he
(13:54):
has some new current information because he did not he's
not taken on the return trip the plane he took
over there.
Speaker 2 (14:03):
You know, he took that, as you know, he took
that plane donated by Cutter. Right.
Speaker 1 (14:10):
Cutter donated that plane. I believe you're right, Yeah, donated
that plane, and he took that over there. But he's
not taking it back. He's taking one of the old
versions of air Force one, the VC twenty five A
version of air Force one. He's taking that home, he
says it, so the troops in Europe can see the
new air Force one. I don't think anybody's buying that.
(14:31):
The widespread speculations, speculation among the so called experts, is
that he's taking the old style VC twenty five.
Speaker 2 (14:39):
A home because it's known to have.
Speaker 1 (14:43):
Highly classified defensive systems on that version of Air Force one.
So yeah, President very open today three times that he
believes there's a real danger he'll be assassinated, and let's
pray for many, many reasons that that does not happen.
What do you what do you think would happen if
(15:04):
Iron made that mistake.
Speaker 4 (15:07):
It's it's really scary to imagine all the all the
fallout and you know what could happen as a result
of that. I just think it would definitely explain why
you've seen such a hard turn in you know, Trump's
perspective on all this, Even as the negotiations might have
been rocky in the past, it wasn't at all like
we saw today, where he was extremely curt extremely cold,
(15:29):
you know, calling him Scott like he was angry. And
if he thinks they're trying to kill him, that I
would explain it.
Speaker 2 (15:34):
Yeah, No, that's right.
Speaker 1 (15:35):
And I don't think that anger would be for necessarily
just his own life. Right, because he showed such courage
and taking out Solamani, that terrorist general, he knew that
that would put a target on his back. I think
he's a physically courageous guy who's willing to die for
his country. I think it probably ticks him off to
think of the impact that would have on his family,
(15:57):
the impact that would have on this nation. And you know,
it goes back to Butler, because i'd, like some others
and the President, believe that God did have a hand
in saving him in Butler. And then the question becomes, Okay,
for what purpose? And then the bigger question of I
personally believe that that and this is just one guy's belief, right,
(16:19):
that God saved Trump and that Butler Field because of
the horror it would have caused to this nation and
by extension, to the world if the President's life had
been taken that way. And I do think the President
has in the past and is right now going on
to do great and very moral work. Doesn't mean he's perfect.
Speaker 2 (16:42):
He's not.
Speaker 1 (16:42):
None of us are. But compared to the alternative, both
of his presidencies have been on a scale of one
to ten in terms of morality, morality of public policy,
morality of public government actions. I'd say both of his
administrations have been a seven or eight and the Democrats
(17:04):
have been a negative two or three. So in terms
of morality in action in public action, yeah, I think
that I think that the loss of Trump, if iron
makes the mistake of taking Trump out. The loss of
Trump is going to unleash that horrific havoc in the world.
(17:27):
I mean, obviously, I mean, you've got to believe at
this point it's something he's discussed with JD. Vance and
that there would be a it would be the end
of that regime.
Speaker 2 (17:37):
But again, you've got a regime.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
There's a very real chance the regime wants that again
because of their twisted view of their faith, and it's
built right into their constitution. There's this whole idea of
unleashing this kind of chaos early next on the Dan
Kapla Show.
Speaker 3 (17:58):
You're listening to the Dan Kaplan Show podcast.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
That's a very interesting question to me.
Speaker 5 (18:07):
I think it's over. I don't want to deal with
him any with this scum. You know what scum is.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
There's gum, there's sick people.
Speaker 5 (18:14):
They're lit by sick people, and then they're vicious, violent
people and if they had a nuclear weapon, they'd use it.
As far as I'm concerned, it's over. I'll speak to
our negotiators. They want to negotiate. They're good people, Steve Woodcuff,
Jared Kushier, but they have to come back to me,
as far as I'm concerned, it's just a waste of
(18:34):
time dealing with them.
Speaker 2 (18:35):
They're liars. We make a deal, and if I make a.
Speaker 5 (18:39):
Deal with him, we have a deal, and he goes out,
he talks, We make a deal, everyone's agreed, no nuclear weapon.
We make a deal. They go outside, talk to the press.
They say, we never even talked about it. There's something
wrong with them. They're cuckoo. Far as I'm concerned, your solvers.
Speaker 1 (18:56):
So that against the backdrop of President Trump three times
to talking about how he believes he may be assassinated,
and then reportedly taking a separate plane home than the
gift from Cover some forty seven that he took there,
He's taking an old style Air Force one home. According
(19:18):
to media reports, it has more advanced defensive measures, et cetera.
Let's go to the vip line. We're so fortunate to
have Aaron Lee in this state and on this show,
Aaron who accomplished what I'm not sure anybody else ever
has in getting these three different important ballot measures on
primarily through largely through a grassroots effort. And we'll talk
(19:40):
a little bit about those because as we head into
this election cycle, I think it should be top priority
on everybody's list to pass those. But then on top
of that, Aaron, who I follow every day on ex
Aaron had a really important post about some new information
regarding children's hospital Aeron Welcome back to the Dan Kapli Show.
Speaker 7 (19:58):
Hey Dan, thanks for having and you are correct it
has never been done before. We accomplish it protectives with
these three ballot measures all volunteer.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Yeah, and let's start with that. Where can people go
to learn more about them? And I think it's time
when we all have to start, you know, putting a
little money into this, whether whatever we can afford, whether
it's a dollar or a bunch of dollars, putting time
into it.
Speaker 2 (20:21):
Where can people go to do that?
Speaker 7 (20:23):
Thank you? Yes, it's protect Kids Colorado dot org. And
we are entirely grassroots, so from funding to manpower, we're
one hundred percent volunteer. We have no major funder, but
we do have the power of this massive grassroots army.
We had thirty three hundred and twenty seven volunteer position circulators.
(20:45):
Well that made this possible getting on the ballot. So
we've proven the impossible can be done when people just
say yes and do their little part, but collectively we
can do such big things. But that includes funding the
effort as well, and we've really just need fun to
make sure people have yard signs and pass out cards
and everything that they need to be having important conversations
(21:07):
in their own sphere of influence all over those states.
Speaker 1 (21:10):
And my guess is it has probably been better and
better for the ultimate passage of this that you didn't
have some major funder that this had to come from
the people, and so many people have skin in the
game now and have put that effort in. It seems
to me that's the kind of engine that has a
better chance of getting it across the finish line.
Speaker 7 (21:29):
Totally. In hindsight, yes, I'm very glad that it worked
out the way it did. It would have been great
to be able to pay circulators or pay people to
go out and get signatures. Didn't happen that way, And
I'm now in hindsight, very grateful that we have this
volunteer effort and so many people involved having conversations. And really,
I always say, shipping culture in addition to changing policy,
(21:50):
that is arguably as or more important than passing these
measures themselves.
Speaker 1 (21:56):
Yeah, and I think what you've done. Also, Aaron, you're
in your army is I think you've tapped into existing
culture across party lines that the left was trying to
convince us had died, but it hadn't, and you gave
people a voice, a way to express it. No, wait
a second. I may normally vote Democrat, but I don't
(22:17):
agree with this. Boys shouldn't be in girls' sports, boys
shouldn't be in girls' locker rooms. Yeah.
Speaker 7 (22:23):
I've really found that protecting kids is a great unifier.
It's like this universal line in the sand that transcends
political or faith, you know where you lie on those spectrums.
It really has brought people together, and you're right, people
who had never voted before carry These people who had
never volunteered or engaged in anything political carried the petitions
(22:44):
and over forty percent of the signatures were not from conservatives.
So it really shows that I believe these are the
biggest thing going for us during the November election. It's
going to really drive people out to vote and engage
people who otherwise would not have paid attention.
Speaker 1 (23:00):
Yeah, and all these Democrat candidates are going to have
to answer on this now they were protected in the
Wiser Bennett debate. They weren't even asked the question, which
was bizarre, but that was to protect them. But all
the candidates are going to have to answer to it.
And again the point of that is not, oh, it'll
be good for the Republicans not the Democrats. The point
of it is people should have to stand up in
(23:21):
answer for this because nobody can defend boys and girls' sports.
Speaker 2 (23:25):
Nobody can do it.
Speaker 7 (23:27):
They're very common sense measures. And two years ago, actually
the New York Times pulled this and found that the
girls sports in particular was an eighty twenty issue amongst
Democrats two years ago. We've moved the needle even further
since then. So I really think this is going to
drive a lot of people out to vote for good
candidates on the down ballot.
Speaker 2 (23:45):
Yeah, no, exactly.
Speaker 1 (23:47):
And now, Aaron, you had an important post today about
Children's hospital and some new information there.
Speaker 2 (23:53):
What's up.
Speaker 7 (23:55):
Yeah, well, this is interesting. A Rocky Mountain Boys dropped
a really good kind of a hit on Children's Hospital Colorado.
That Do No Harm, which is a great organization that
we work closely with, put out what's called to Stop
the Harm Database. It stopped the Harm Database dot Com
encourage everyone to go there, and it showed that over
(24:16):
a four year period, just based on public insurance data,
show the numbers of kids who have undergone this chemical
castration and surgical mutilation. And what they found was a
Colorado ranked number ten in the worst places where this
is happening. Over sixty hospitals are performing these procedures on children,
(24:37):
just based on public insurance data. But what this investigation
from Rocky Mountain showed is that during this lawsuit between
Children's Hospital Colorado and the families who were suing them
to resume these procedures, it came out in court documents
and both sides agreed that annually eight hundred kids had
(24:57):
received these procedures in twenty twenty four and twenty twenty four,
but insurance data only showed about twenty two kids per year,
So there's this huge discrepancy. Of course, some of that
is attributed to self pay. It didn't include Kaiser permanente.
But what we suspect, especially based on w Pass, which
is now under has been sued by the FTC, is
(25:19):
fraudulent coding is a big part of this that these
health systems are intentionally using the wrong billing codes in
order to conceal the amount of kids that they're actually mutilating.
Speaker 1 (25:30):
Oh my lord, and now Aaron, for those new to
this issue, when you talk about chemical castration surgical mutilation,
what are you talking about.
Speaker 7 (25:39):
Yeah, so this is the puberty blockers and wrong sex hormones.
So administering what are typically chemical castration drugs that they
give to sex defenders. Lupron is given to sex offenders
in prison. This is one of the most common puberty
blockers that they're given to minor children as young as
eight in Colorado. Colorado Medicaid website she recommend starting this
(26:01):
at panner stage two, which is age eight in this state.
So chemical castration drugs that when a child takes these
puberty blockers that suppress their normal human development into wrong
sex hormones. So for example, giving estrogen and high amounts
to a young man, they are one hundred percent rendered
sterilized when they take the puberty blockers into the cross
(26:23):
sex hormones. So this is crazy amounts of kids, very
high numbers that are being sterilized under the guise of
gender affirming care here in Colorado. And then the surgeries
are the double masks stectomies and the poul classes where
they are rejecting their sex surgically.
Speaker 1 (26:39):
I hope all these kids come back and sue the
hell out of all these doctors and all these hospitals,
and I hope they do. I hope they do, because
they would that the people getting sued would deserve it
and the people doing the suing would deserve it. That
the problem is that the money can't bring them back,
It can't bring their life back, but maybe it can
(27:00):
protect others.
Speaker 7 (27:02):
It's truly irreversible. What's happening to them? Because are the
some of the most invasive procedures that are happening to kids.
And what's really scary, Dan, A lot of people don't
know this is that in twenty twenty five, we passed
the law Senate Bill one twenty nine that actually made
it impossible to pursue civil action against the butchered.
Speaker 2 (27:20):
Oh I didn't hear about that.
Speaker 7 (27:22):
The course of action?
Speaker 2 (27:23):
How does that work?
Speaker 7 (27:23):
In senebil one twenty nine. So they made it illegal
to subpoena the doctors, and they essentially eliminated any civil
course of action for people who have been harmed. And
then also there's this two year Statute to Limitations, and
most of these kids have this. It takes more than
two years for them to understand what's happened to them.
Their brains aren't fully formed, and by the time they
figure it out, their two year Statute of limitations as
(27:46):
lap very hard for them to pursue recourse.
Speaker 1 (27:49):
A couple of thoughts here, Thank you for mentioning this
Senate Bill one twenty nine, because I'm not familiar with it,
but I'm going to look at it during the break.
And then the other issue is for these kids. I
believe there were be hope on the two year Statute
of Limitations because normally for a minor that can be
told until they turn eighteen and in some cases even
an older age, depending on the circumstances. But Erin, thank
(28:12):
you for educating me on that, because I can't believe
such a thing.
Speaker 2 (28:15):
It'd be constitutional to.
Speaker 1 (28:17):
Just kind of out this group of people who are
mutilating kids and say, oh, kids, you can't sue them.
Speaker 7 (28:23):
Well, we tried two years in a row. Representative Geograph
ran an extension to the Statute of Limitations, and both
times it was unilaterally killed by Democrats in the Kill Committee.
But I do anticipate this could be a future ballot
measure PIDs. Right now, we're focused on banning the procedures
to stopping them in their tracks so we don't create
any more victims. But in the future we hope to
(28:43):
give them a way to fight back.
Speaker 1 (28:45):
Well, thanks for the phenomenal work you're doing. Thanks for
educating me on this other issue today. I look at
that during the break and then keep up the great work.
Speaker 7 (28:53):
Thanks Dan, Thank.
Speaker 1 (28:55):
You that as Aaron Lee Protect Kids Colorado. You're on
the Dan Caplace Show.
Speaker 3 (29:03):
Now back to the Dan Kapli Show podcast.
Speaker 6 (29:07):
Tyler Pager with The New York Times. Last month, you
said Iranian leaders were very rational people and nice people
to deal with, strong people, smart people. Today you said
they were scum, sick people and being led by sick people.
Speaker 2 (29:20):
What changed? And do you think I got to know.
Speaker 1 (29:25):
A little levity and a really really heavy day when
it comes to Iran. The US mounting strikes again this afternoon,
and the President saying the Memo of Understanding is dead
in his view, and really ripping this evil regime in
a way that I haven't heard him before, and also
talking about the fact three times today that he believes
(29:46):
Iran has targeted him for assassination. And then, according to
media reports, I'm not on the plane. I don't know,
according to media reports, taking a different version of Air
Force one home from NATO, not the version he went thereon,
which was the one donated by Cutter. Qatar s I
made that mistake, Quitar, and then I should know better.
And then, according to media reports, he took the old
(30:11):
style Air Force one home because it has better defensive technologies.
So three out three someone three eight two five five
d an five seven seven three nine. Got a lot
of great texts coming in. I'll get to all of those,
but I don't even want to think about what would
happen if Iran was successful in their evil attempts to
(30:35):
assassinate the president. What it would mean for this nation
the world start with the president and his family. Yeah,
but he believes it's very, very real, and I believe
him when he says it is three ot three someone
three eight two five five d an five seven seven
three nine. So what does it mean in your mind
for what the US should do now with Ron?
Speaker 2 (30:58):
Because the choice is clear, right.
Speaker 1 (30:59):
I was talking about it on air a couple of
days ago before all this popped up. The evil regime
has concluded the President Trump won't fight, that he won't
fight further, and that.
Speaker 2 (31:09):
He can be mocked, this nation can be mocked.
Speaker 1 (31:11):
That will boost the standing of the evil regime in
the halls of horror and terror around the world, and
that is clearly their play right now. But again, to
change that, to change what is the unfortunate new status
quo would involve, I think everybody agrees a military action
(31:31):
on a massive scale, with lots of US casualties and
lots of innocent people on the ground who are essentially
hostages of this evil regime, you know, also being caught
in the crossfire.
Speaker 2 (31:44):
So what do you think the US should do here?
Three h three seven one three.
Speaker 1 (31:48):
Eight two five five d an five seven seven three nine. Hey,
thank you to Aaron Lee for being on with us
in the last segment and talking about, you know, the
latest information available regards how many of these chemical castration
surgical mutilations are actually going on in the state and
the information she had and via a Rocky Mountain Voice
(32:09):
report in that Saidigenall's group that does tremendous work, I
hope you read it every day, is far far far
more of these mutilations are going on than had been
previously reported because the prior reports were normally based on
insurance information. But then you get into, as Aaron pointed out,
issues of are some people out there miscoding? Are other
(32:31):
people's self pain? And it looks like far more of
these are occurring. So to me, it's one of the
really cool things about this job over the decades being
on air is and especially now that it's been so
many decades, get some historical perspective, and it isn't often
that somebody like aaronly emerges, and no matter where you
(32:53):
are politically, that somebody emerges from the grassroots because of
something terrible that was done to their family and then
decides they're not just going to complain about it or
play the victim. They're going to go out there and
change the world. It's a really really hard sustained work,
and she has, I mean, putting these three ballot measures
(33:14):
in front of the people, all the work that goes
into that and doing it grassroots, it's almost impossible, and
they're also very important. We're focused mainly in today's conversation
on the one that would keep boys out of girls' sports,
but then you have the other that we also talked
about that would prevent you know, chemical these chemical castrations
(33:36):
of kids. Really important stuff, and it's so cool, just
historically to see this bubble up, especially at a time
when the Left is just having its way with Colorado.
But as Aaron said, you know, sixty percent of their signatures,
you know, came from people who aren't Republicans, and that
(33:56):
the fact they had to get an on grassroots instead
of some big sugar daddy or sugar mommy, I think
just gives them and Doss such a better chance to win.
So two things I'd ask you to consider, and one
is it takes some serious, serious time to look at
Protect Kids Colorado website and decide whether you want to
(34:19):
get involved, boots on the ground and whatever money you
can afford, because no matter where this state is haded
in terms of elective office in the fall, and we
know what's likely there, it's not inevitable, but it's likely
no matter where it's headed in elective office, if there
is a real chance to win these ballot measures and
to save a lot of kids and change the trajectory
(34:41):
of the state towards sanity, and then the other thing
I'd ask you to think about. When you get a chance,
just google up Michael Allen. He's the GOP candidate for
Attorney General in Colorado. He'll be with us after the break.
But that race is always going to be important. It's
one hundred times more important in this cycle. There is
a real chance to win, and his opponent, the Democrat,
(35:04):
is so obviously unqualified for office, wrong for office. Somebody
who lied about arguing to the US Supreme Court hasn't
been a practicing attorney. Many Democrats are uncomfortable with Jenna Griswold.
Speaker 2 (35:16):
So real chance to win. Michael Allen next
