Speaker 1 (00:00):
This is Dan Caples 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. Yeah, the American
way is innocent until proven guilty, and the left doesn't
like that when it comes to the right. That the

(00:20):
left's view is that they can never be guilty no
matter how guilty they are, and their view as everybody
on the right is guilty, whether they're guilty or not.
So as you start to see these stories emerge and
CNN bannering this as the biggest news story in the
last decade, all of their headlines over the last two

(00:43):
minutes or so have been Team Trump considering withdrawing Heg
Seth nomination, top Trump aid, questioned Heg Sath about sexual assault.

Speaker 2 (00:53):
Allegation, etc. So we know that we're going to see
an endless stream of this stuff, right. But you know,
obviously you listen to a show like this, you know
not to put any credence in it whatsoever and just
follow the facts. So let's see what the facts are.
But this, you can be sure of that. You know,
none of these people would have been nominated unless there

(01:15):
was thorough vetting. And so is vetting always perfect? No,
but yeah, take with a major grain of salt. You know,
anything that you see reported at this point regarding any
of these nominees. Now, if something turns out to be true,
you'll know it because you'll have the facts in front
of you, and then everybody can act accordingly. Eight five

(01:37):
five for zero five eight two five five the number.
As we get more details on this allegation, the new
headline is Trump team stunned by allegation against defense pick Hexith.
We'll get you those details, those claimed details, as we
receive them. So hey, let the celebration continue, right, and

(02:00):
even more reason to celebrate today as we see the
overall team that Trump is putting together. You don't have
to love each and every one to see the clear
direction that he's taking, which I think is what America
has asked for here, which is change it up, not
the same old thing and Kennedy's seventy. But other than that,
it's a relatively young type of cabinet. So any part

(02:23):
of that you want to talk about, let's do it.
I do think though, because I know there'll be some
calls and text on gates there already are. I would
ask you to consider all of that against the background
of the reality. I think it's the undeniable reality. And
if you think I'm wrong, tell me and we'll have
the conversation. But it's an undeniable reality that once the
Left unleashed these demons, truly like demons, out of this

(02:48):
Pandora's box. Once the left decided that okay, they were
going to risk the existence of America as we know
it by now perverting our legal system to try to
jail political opponents who they can't beat at the polls,
then at that point they forever changed the nature of
the attorney general appointment at what Republican could afford, as

(03:09):
a matter of obligation to his or her voters, as
a matter of self survival, what Republican could afford to
appoint as attorney general anybody other than a total loyalist,
the person they had the most confidence and in the
world would not kill them in their sleep. Because the
attorney general position has the ability to do that to

(03:31):
a presidency, it could essentially end it the first week,
you know, by appointing a special counsel to this or
that or whatever. That would just bog down the entire presidency.
And listen, if the facts are that one is necessary,
then of course you've got to do whatever's just. But
we saw with the Russia hoax, right that was that
was an assault on America, that was an attempted coup.

(03:54):
So who could blame Trump for saying first and foremost
he needs a loyalists. Listen, if Eric or Donn had
law degrees, I don't think they do, do they Ryan?
I've never asked him, but if either Eric or don
had a law degree, I would have expected that Trump
would have appointed Eric or Don just as JFK appointed RFK,
who is thirty five years old and not a practicing
lawyer when he was appointed attorney general, because JFK was

(04:17):
a smart cat and he understood you have to have
an attorney general who is not going to kill you
in your sleep. Eight fi five for zero five A
two five five then number. Let's get back to the
phone lines and text Len in Denver, always welcome here,
You're on the Dan Kaplis show. Welcome, Well, thank.

Speaker 3 (04:38):
You, hi Dan again another happy day. Just like I
like limited government. I like limited medications, and I know
they're necessary, but I think it's just gotten out of control.
And on a personal level, I'm a year older than RFK.
I'm a bit sentimental about him, even though I'm a Republican,

(04:58):
just from all of the things with Bobby Kennedy and JFK. So,
but I am thrilled because I totally believe in his
stance on health and limited you know, gonna He's not
going to try to take things away from people. But
I haven't been vaccinated since I was fine. I take
no meds. I'm totally about health and fitness, knowing that

(05:20):
you do need medications, but the dependency on this to
me is way too much. And it's such a commercial
with a guy riding a bike and he's all happy
and they talk about a med that and then they
say side effects maybe sprame damage, kidney disease, liver failure
and death and your birth head's going to fall off,
and who wants to take that. It's it's out of

(05:42):
control to me, So I really like him being in
a physician.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
Well, I sure do appreciate the call, Thank you, Lynn,
And you know what, I think lots and lots of
women do and I get that because one thing and
we got to do a show on it, Ryan, But
you look at women in America and you look at
how many women and have developed really serious conditions that
really didn't even seem to exist, or they existed, but

(06:08):
they weren't at all common, you know, twenty thirty, forty
years ago. But now so many women are plagued by
so many different physical problems that many smart people believe
are connected to things in our food supply. And you
don't see women in Europe having these same kind of
problems at this same level, et cetera. A lot of

(06:30):
it can be part of reproduction. There are just a
lot of issues there. And obviously, you know men are
moral beasts, less healthy as well, so there's really something
wrong there. So I don't know what the solutions are,
but having a change up, having somebody in there who's
really focused on that, cares about it's been researched in

(06:51):
for years. Doesn't mean that RFK Junior is going to
be right about everything. But I'd much rather have a
fresh take on it now. And I think that is
right in America. Wheelhouse America wants that, and for darn
good reasons. So yeah, yeah, excellent pick. Now, what do
you think about this? Robert Kennedy is very big on
and wants to stop the you know, TV commercials, et

(07:15):
cetera for these different drugs.

Speaker 4 (07:18):
I'm not intimidated by the agencies. I know how they work,
and I know how to change them. And most of
those changes you do not need Congress for the president.
President Trump could have done it at the power to
do it himself, and President Biden has the power to
do it himself.

Speaker 2 (07:32):
And I'll give you an example.

Speaker 4 (07:34):
With a stroke of.

Speaker 2 (07:34):
The pen, you can change back the.

Speaker 4 (07:37):
Rule that allows pharmaceutical advertisers to do direct to consumer
ads on television.

Speaker 2 (07:44):
What do you think should those be knocked out? My
guess is Ryan that every parent, every parent of young
children or let's say kids in that six to twelve range,
would agree with that wholeheartedly right now, so they never
again have to have a kid ask during a game

(08:05):
or something, Dad, what's ed right? Because it's like every
other ad right, And fortunately fortunately I had the perfect answer.

Speaker 5 (08:17):
Boy, Well, it isn't your perfect answer.

Speaker 2 (08:19):
I have no idea, but I mean, it's like every
other ad.

Speaker 6 (08:24):
Well, it is, And I get where he's coming from.
There being this ever present conflict of interest that the
research and development of these drugs tied into the advertising
promotion of these drugs for the profit from the sale
of these drugs. You know, I don't like the muddling
of those waters anymore than he does.

Speaker 2 (08:40):
Right, because then that has to affect a media outlet, right,
because media becomes so dependent on that money. There you go,
just just as I believe the media, and there have
been some noble exceptions, but much of the media has
let the public down in its reporting on the horrors
and harms of marijuana and legalize marijuana because much of

(09:02):
the media hopes to benefit from that money and benefit
from that money through advertising as things quote loosen up
over time. But yeah, so I think I think he's
got a very legitimate concern. Now, Listen, we're a nation.
At our core, we value free speech, We protect free speech,
and I think the buyer is going to be very

(09:22):
high to say that, Okay, somebody can't advertise their product
on TV, you know, given our commitment to free speech,
I think there's going to have to be an extraordinary showing.
But if somebody believes they can make that case, I
think they're entitled to that chance to make it. I
just like the fact we're going to have a fresh
look and a fresh approach in so many different areas

(09:44):
eight five five or was there a five A two
five five the number text d an five seven, seven
through nine when we come back one of the biggest
scandals in Colorado history what happened at our Secretary of
State's office. And I believe that the failure to respond
and properly taints in a very very deep way. Polis

(10:05):
and Wiser as well. But is Griswold really going to
be allowed to just walk away from all of this
some new tape, some new audio tape connected to that scandal.
You're on the Dankapla Show.

Speaker 5 (10:20):
And now back to the Dan Taplas Show podcast.

Speaker 7 (10:23):
Add the Secretary of Defense nominee Peter haiks At the
Fox News commentator as well, because this is someone who
weekend host important distinction. This is someone who you know
is known to be a white supremacist, known to be.

Speaker 2 (10:41):
Okay, Pete HeiG Seth, I'm going to repeat the offer
that I made to President Trump. I will represent you
free of charge in a defamation case against the person
who said that on MSNBC. Just as I offered to
represent President Trump free of charge against Jim A Costa

(11:01):
when Jim Acosta went on CNN and stated as a
matter of fact that President Trump had threatened to have
Liz Cheney executed. Yeah, they shouldn't be allowed to get
away with that. Eight five five were zero five eight
two five five The number text d A N five
seven seven three nine Glad You're with us as the
celebration continues. Maybe that should be the new name of

(11:23):
the show. The Celebration continues, because this is going to
continue now for a long time, and I would expect,
I really would expect that we're talking eight twelve years
and possibly much longer, assuming that everything works as well
as it should, and it sure did Trump's first term.
Hey where do you watch that fight tonight? Tyson and

(11:45):
that joker? It's live on Netflix? Okay, Jake Paul, Okay,
Jake Paul Okay, Yeah, because I really do want to
watch that. I both of them were Trump supporters, by
the way, and well it speaks well of both. But
I'm just saying that Mike Tyson is a true true fighter,
like aist and a brilliant mind for fighting. You know,
Tyson was a very very peaceful, loving child and no

(12:08):
signs of violence whatsoever. And he was very devoted. He
grew up in very poor circumstances, and he was very
devoted to some pet pigeons that he kept on the
roof of a building. And then I think he was
twelve or thirteen, if I remember my research right, when
he's up on the building with a pet pigeon and
some some bad actor came along and broke the pigeon's

(12:34):
neck and he just flew into a rage. And there
was kind of this turn in his character from that point, yeah,
but just toward violent urges. But he's a very very listen.
I think he was guilty of that sex assault. I
covered that case for NBC. I was there the whole time.
I think he was guilty, But I think he is

(12:55):
a brilliant guy and a thoughtful guy. That was a
case where he truly believed, and I was in the
trial for all that testimony. He truly believed that the
young woman, Desiree Washington, had consented to sex, and clearly
she had not, so it was a rape, but he
believed she had because often he would sleep with more

(13:16):
than five separate women a day, at different times, And
when she came out and got in the limo at
eleven thirty eight nine, and she's just this naive, relatively
young girl and he's a big star, and she thought
they were just going out for a drive. She had
no intention of consenting to sex, and he believed she
already had.

Speaker 6 (13:34):
He had kind of careened out of control at that
point in the late eighties, Dan after the death of
his mentor custom model, was the guy that really shaped
him as a young man as a fighter and had
give him structure and kind of the barriers. Without that,
he kind of lost when he got involved in all
of that and all the trappings of fame and the
fortune and the money and the power that comes with

(13:56):
it and the power of women that came with it
for him.

Speaker 2 (13:58):
Oh yeah, yeah, no of that. But in terms of
fighting tonight, I'm just telling you I've seen the man
fight and he is a true fighter, a scientist as
well as obviously being being a real tough guy. So
if he decides he wants to win this fight tonight,
there won't be any doubt about it. Please nobody bat

(14:21):
on my analysis. I would just feel terrible if I
was wrong and you lost. I will tell you this though,
if I could legally bet on it, and I cannot
apparently it's not being allowed in Colorado, I would not hesitate.
I'm a small stakes like little bet sports bet guy
on weekends. Dan, what are your thoughts about what Trump
actually meant regarding his Lynn Cheney comment. I think he

(14:43):
meant something very noble and correct, and it just didn't
come across as cleanly. What he meant is that, yeah,
really easy for her to say. All these people who
want to send our men and women off to war,
really easy for them to say. And sometimes we have
to fight, right, It's peace through strength. You know, we

(15:04):
didn't have peace in Trump's first term because he was
a pacifist. He's not a pacifist. He killed Solimani and
he killed bag Daddy. And the reason we had peace
is because people knew that Trump would go to war
and he would win. And so it's peace through strength. Yeah.
And what he meant, though, is all these people who

(15:26):
casually send our men and women off to war, you
know what if they had to go face that, you know,
would they so casually do that? That's clearly what he meant. Dan.
I would be more than happy if I never heard
Jardian's commercial again. Can't get that song out of my head.
What is that song? Oh it's not great Jardians. I'll

(15:46):
play it when we come back and break. Okay, okay,
I'll look forward to that. Yeah, that's a great tease.
We're going to play a song that isn't great and
we come back from break, so don't visit, be sure
to come back. Yeah, I can't place that one for
some reason. Dan I asked my sister about the alleged
allegations against Gates in Monterey County. She just retired as

(16:08):
a commander out there. She said, nothing is true, just
a bunch of fabrication. And that's the thing is, you
got to presume innocent, right, But when we look at
the clear pattern of the left, which is simply to
make things up and accuse people on the right of
the most heinous things that are untrue, then how can

(16:28):
anybody take anything they accuse somebody on the right of Seriously, Now,
if the facts end up showing that Gates committed a
crime with this seventeen year old girl, then yeah, he
can't be ag But I would assume if the facts
show that that he would have already been charged, but hey,
let's see what facts they produce. I think if there's

(16:49):
not proof of a crime, I think he gets confirmed. Dan,
I don't think Bill Barr was loyal. Do you think
Kash Patel will be FBI director? Others? A funny thing
thanks to that text. Let me pull it up. There's
a funny headline on earlier today, Trump weighs tapping fierce
loyalist Kash Patel for FBI chief. Can you blame any

(17:13):
Republican president for having a fierce loyalist as head of
the FBI or AG after what Donald Trump was just
exposed to? Listen, I think the men and women of
the FBI are absolute heroes and DOJ is filled with
with thousands and hundreds of thousands of tremendous people. But
when you talk about top level politicos in those organizations

(17:36):
and what was done to Donald Trump, Yeah, who could
blame them for wanting a loyalist and to the extent
that need for somebody who can trust now limits his choices.
Blame the left for that?

Speaker 6 (17:50):
I find these CNN Cairon's hilarious too. Is he supposed
to pick people that are disloyal to him? That he
can't trust, Like, right, what's the play there? I don't understand.

Speaker 2 (17:59):
Exactly, Dan, Are you sure they've all been vetted? Remember
how they said they hadn't vetted the vile comedian Hinchcliff
and therefore hadn't expected his racist jokes. Someday I really
want to know the story how he got on the
stage because for a campaign that was so beautifully run
so often, and it's shown in the final outcome though

(18:19):
that was really about Trump, Right, how did that jerk
get on the stage that day? But I think the
vetting for a cabinet position is going to be different
than the vetting for the comedian. Hey, let's talk some
space command. You're on the Dankplas Show.

Speaker 5 (18:35):
You're listening to the Dan Kaplis Show podcast.

Speaker 8 (18:39):
Since two thousand and five, I spend thirty minutes praying
every day when I get out of bed, and my
prayer is this, I ask God for nineteen years to
put me in a position where I could end the
chronic disease epidemic, and in August God sent me Donald trumpon.

Speaker 2 (19:08):
I have no doubt about the truth or sincerity of
that from RFK Junior, and I'm glad he's in the cabinet.
But at the same time, I have no doubt that
he knows that abortion is wrong, and he knows his
support for it is wrong. And I think like so
many others, particularly in the Democratic Party, they know it's wrong,
but they decide to support it at because they want

(19:32):
the power, they want the access, they want the influence.
But I am glad he's in the cabinet. He's not
going to be acting on the abortion issue, I would expect,
and if he does, we'll call him on it at
that point. But I am glad that he's in the
cabinet because I do think it's been a blind spot
for America, you know, and you know, you don't need
me to tell because every single person listening it's either

(19:55):
themselves or someone in their family that there are just
so many more health problems in America now than there
used to be and compared to many other places in
the world, and we got to get to the bottom
of that. So doesn't mean RFK Junior is going to
be right about everything, but I'm glad there's going to
be a fresh approach myself. Hey, as I see Jack

(20:17):
in Cheyenne is with us a good reminder to wish
our friends up at CSU good luck tonight in their
game against our good friends from Wyomi. No offense to
our good friends from Wyoming. But the CSU program that
is a really good program on the upswing their stadium
is unbelievably great, and I think there are a lot

(20:39):
of good things ahead. Jack, Welcome to the Dan Kapla Show.

Speaker 9 (20:44):
Hi, Dan, he haven't talked to you a long time.

Speaker 2 (20:46):
Yeah, Yeah, my loss r RFK.

Speaker 9 (20:49):
Was the most despicable politician in my entire lifetime, and
his son is the exact opposite. He says all the
right things. Now, where that's going and why he's doing it,
I don't know, and I'm not going to speculate on it,
but I think that what comes out of his mouth
is one hundred and eighty degrees from what his father did.
And I've lived long enough to know all about that.

(21:10):
But here's my other question.

Speaker 2 (21:12):
I ask you about that for a second, Jack, because
I'm a little perplexed as a guy who had You're.

Speaker 9 (21:18):
Always perplexed standing when you talk to me. We know
that that's that's a given.

Speaker 2 (21:22):
I had a couple of different pictures on the wall
of my small room when I was in college, and
one was Farah Fawcett and the other was RFK. And
so why are you so upset with RFK?

Speaker 9 (21:39):
Well, because I grew up in New York City. I
grew up in Bronxville, New York, and we had the
television and when there was like six five stations in
Manhattan that did the news every night. It's not like
Colorado with one or two stations. And when we flipped
the dial, we would see in the campaign for the
nomination for the presidency on the on the party side
for RFK A he would be in one section of

(22:01):
the Bronx talking to the Arabs saying he's not going
to sell airplanes to the Israelis, and then you clipped
the channel. On the same day, he'd be in another
Jewish part of the Bronx and he would be telling
them that he was going to support them with all
the military aid they need. The guy was the biggest
pony on the planet.

Speaker 2 (22:19):
My lord. He did a lot of good things, but
this just goes back to how did.

Speaker 9 (22:23):
They do good? He got out of what did you
do with Danny? He got after he went after Senator.

Speaker 2 (22:29):
Did the guy urinate in your weedies. I mean this
is very personal, Kack. Listen, the guy was the civil
rights champion. Here's my point, my broader point. Because nobody
listening cares what you or I think about RFK. My
broader point is is that this is how legalized abortion
perverted and distorted the Democratic Party. And and and so

(22:51):
the Democratic Party was supposed to be about the weak
and defenseless and protecting the little guy, got so perverted
by abortion that that all of the sudden you know
are r FK and JFK would be run out of
the Democratic Party in a heartbeat today. And so how
cool it is that the GOP has now become America's
party and the party of the week of defenseless and

(23:13):
the party of the working people. But Jack, you were
going somewhere else.

Speaker 9 (23:17):
With this, I sense, Yeah, Danny, Danny, you know you
can't talk about abortion with me, so don't even try.

Speaker 2 (23:25):
Let's talk about now, I have to talk abortion with the.

Speaker 9 (23:28):
Issues I have, Jack, there's no answer for the abortion.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
No, no, no, But did check that I'm talking about
some different I'm talking about somebody on my show giving
me an order and saying you can't talk about this
with me. Which means, of course I have to talk
about that with you. So why can't I talk abortion
with you?

Speaker 9 (23:48):
Okay?

Speaker 10 (23:48):
What tell me what the remedy for the abortion issue
that's been a human behavior for over four thousand years.
Give me Danny Caplus's remedy, and don't tell me it's
in the law because it was ill legal for sixty
years and it didn't stop it from happening in back
alleys and everybody died. Give me your intellect on it, Danny.

Speaker 9 (24:06):
You don't ever want to go need a knee in
tote to total with me. You just don't want to.

Speaker 2 (24:10):
I'm about to win in less than ten seconds protect
innocent human life.

Speaker 9 (24:18):
That's wonderful.

Speaker 2 (24:19):
And Jack, so I imagine, what's your imagine?

Speaker 9 (24:22):
Ny, How are you going to do it? Say it
with a law? Is the law going to do it?

Speaker 2 (24:28):
Danny? Jack? I was just about to defeat you on
that point also, And so if you allow me a
second to do it, I'll finish and we can move on. Okay.
It won't take my best shot, and that's simply this
that that you're suggesting. Then I guess that we need
to do away with our law against murder since we
still have murder because the law hasn't stopped murder.

Speaker 9 (24:48):
Right, Well, it's that, okay, Danny. The abortion issue has
been given to the states as the state's issue. It's
not a federal issue.

Speaker 2 (24:58):
And you keep.

Speaker 10 (24:58):
Thinking that you can go top down and have a
ruling on the federal level.

Speaker 2 (25:03):
Whenever ever said that, Jack.

Speaker 9 (25:04):
The entire country and the entire world on your view
of abortion. Yeah, Danny, you need to grow up. You really,
really really is a smart guy like you. You really need
to grow up.

Speaker 2 (25:14):
Check if you thought about decaf, thought about what decaffeinated coffee?

Speaker 9 (25:22):
Well, you usually accuse me of being an alcoholic.

Speaker 2 (25:25):
I've never accused you of being an alcoholic.

Speaker 10 (25:27):
Times in the past, Danny, I'll come to your studio
for an hour and we'll talk about the futility of
abortion and where you're going with that.

Speaker 9 (25:36):
You're going nowhere with I.

Speaker 2 (25:37):
Got to tell you Jack, there, we're an awful lot
of people who thought we'd always have slavery. But this
whole idea of human life as somebody else's property not cool,
and it's it's not going to It's not the way
it's going to stay in America. You can see America
has already made huge strides because we're a good people
and America is changing and it's going to continue to

(25:58):
change for the better. But Jack, I think you did
call about something else I did.

Speaker 9 (26:03):
I did here and it was on the lfehearted side,
and it was it was intended in humor. So if
we can get away from this thing, and you know,
I love you like a brother.

Speaker 2 (26:12):
Think you know that, like what kind of brother?

Speaker 9 (26:15):
My real question is, would you do your research and
find out for me? I want to know if Lawrence
o'donald is married and will be goldb and then and
then if you can find that out, find out which
one is the man and which one is the woman?

Speaker 2 (26:28):
Jack? You Danny Jack? Jack? Why huh, Kelly's got upper
game back there, I think. But no, I'm joking. We
and we love Jack, but and we don't We don't
screen out anybody quite obviously, right, we don't know they
were like threats, oh yeah, once they're on air. Right,
But that's one of the things we take great pride

(26:50):
in and I have for almost thirty years, is we
take on all comers.

Speaker 6 (26:53):
Well, I just looked this up. Yeah, Lawrence o'donald was
married to a woman. Named Catherine Harold from nineteen ninety
four to twenty thirteen. A very lovely woman, and he
barrely has been a bachelor ever since. I haven't seen
anything else.

Speaker 2 (27:07):
Okay, hey, believe it or not, we have a lot
to do. In this last segment, I do want to
cover some latest sounds, some audio tape that popped up
yesterday connected to the scandal. And it is a true
scandal in the Colorado Secretary of State's office. That doesn't mean,
by definition, anybody committed a crime. It doesn't mean by

(27:28):
definition that our elections are unsafe. That's not the point.
The point is scandalous behavior occurred, and the Left is
at this point protecting Jenna Gruswold. Why do you think
they're doing that? You're on the Dan Capla Show.

Speaker 5 (27:45):
And now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.

Speaker 2 (27:48):
I have tied two diabetes, but I managed it well.

Speaker 5 (27:52):
Hope it'll kill with the big story to tell, I
take once daily.

Speaker 3 (27:57):
Johnny Hens.

Speaker 2 (28:04):
Inspiring that because they were talking about Mark k Junior
wants to take the big pharma ads off TV. Here's that.
Jake Tepper his unique take on things.

Speaker 5 (28:16):
Loyal, not just loyal.

Speaker 2 (28:19):
People who display fealty.

Speaker 6 (28:21):
Uh.

Speaker 11 (28:22):
Mega warriors, that seems to be the constant theme.

Speaker 5 (28:25):
They are they are mega warriors.

Speaker 2 (28:26):
They are in your face.

Speaker 11 (28:27):
These are not uniting people, These are not uniting picks.
These are in your face, in your face to the
medical community, to the intelligence community, to the military community.

Speaker 2 (28:37):
That's what he wants. A fatal flaw in Jake's logic.
He's right about the first part, Mega warriors and make
America great again warriors. That's what America elected Trump to do.
But that doesn't mean it's divisive. The whole idea and
Trump was clear about it in the campaign, it makes
perfect logical sense is to unite America through success. And

(28:59):
before cod Trump was going down that road, unite America
through success. And you look at the coalition that won.
There's a great piece I think, I don't know New
York Times Washington Post today about how the coalition has
shifted and now what you see as this prevalence of
people not so much the decisive vote totals being about race,

(29:23):
but being about class, meaning working people and working people
uniting around Trump. So, yes, Trump wants make America great
again warriors. That's what he was elected to do, and
he wants to unite America through success, perfectly logical plan.
You got a better one, Jake eight five five for
zero five eight two five five. The number of the

(29:43):
lefts definition of unity is to make the rest of
us bend the knee, make the rest of us kneel
before them, and accept all of this outrageous, immoral, destructive
garbage they're trying to impose on America.

Speaker 6 (29:59):
Which Biden cabinet pick was unifying, was reaching across the
aisle to Republicans, a moderate choice that did not reflect
the fealty to borrow Jake Tapper's words to the Biden
administration and the hard left stance that they took on
every issue, Dan, You and I know, there's a reason
why this election turned out the way that it did
as severely as it did for Democrats, and that's because

(30:21):
they took the nation way too far to the left
on almost every front.

Speaker 2 (30:26):
Yeah, and interesting, you see it it was AOC right
who dropped the pronouns. Yep, yeah, yeah, she dropped her pronouns.
That tells you everything you need to know right now.
And this is Weir're just talking about that a few
days ago on the show. Are the Democrats going to
realize that their insanity is backfiring on them, and are

(30:50):
they going to back off that crazy, wild, obscene, reckless
anti woman policy of theirs that people with penises and
people with malanatomy have a right to be in women's
showers and bathrooms and locker rooms and girls' sports, and

(31:11):
that their rights are superior to the rights of actual
natural women. I mean, it's madness. It's a suicidal approach
for the Democratic Party. And I think that AOC dropping
our pronouns may seem like a small but I think
very significant sign. Hey, I want to play this audio
because I've been doing this a little while, almost thirty

(31:33):
years on air. This is one of the biggest scandals
I've ever seen in Colorado government. What happened in the
Secretary of State's office and listen the putting six hundred
passwords online available. Yeah, horrific incompetence, and that is very bad.
But that's not what I'm labeling the scandal. The scandal
is when Jenna Griswold then made the premeditated, deliberate decision

(31:57):
to hide that from the public and even hide it
from her own clerks because it would be damaging to
her politically. And here's some sound relating to that. And
this is an audio recording revealing the Secretary of State's
office admitting that that's why they decided not to tell
the clerks because it would have caused a media firestorm.
And why would it have caused a media firestorm because

(32:20):
the public would have been absolutely outraged with jennat griswol
So you're willing to compromise election integrity because listen, if
somebody had the BIOS password and physical access, a bad
actor could do some damage. So by deciding not to
tell the clerks, you're increasing the risk, You're increasing the
threat to election integrity. That's why I call this a

(32:42):
true scandal.

Speaker 11 (32:43):
Democratic Secretary of State Jenna Griswold's office was not going
to tell county election clerks in the public that they
had accidentally leaked voting machine passwords. Nine News Investigators has
obtained an audio recording where Griswold's chief deputy tells the
clerks that they were not going to be told because
it would cause.

Speaker 2 (33:00):
A media frenzy.

Speaker 11 (33:02):
Griswold only notified the clerks and only changed the passwords
after that security breach was revealed to the media and
the public. That security breach came out five days after
Griswold's office learned about it, when the Colorado Republican Party
broke the news and asked for an investigation. The passwords
had been inadvertently posted on her website in the hidden
tab of a spreadsheet, sitting there for months. Clerks were

(33:24):
upset to find out about it through the news. Griswold
told me that day that she hadn't decided whether the
public was ever going to be told. Nine News investigates
got a hold of an audio recording of Griswold's top
deputy speaking to the clerks just minutes after I talked
with Griswold that day.

Speaker 12 (33:40):
Josh, I appreciate that you're expressing upset and I pissed off,
and it's really hard not answering media questions the way
I actually want to. Okay, I will tell you. All
I can do is be as transparent as I possibly tell.

(34:02):
We were not going to tell counties because we could
not tell counties without it becoming the media storm.

Speaker 2 (34:09):
It has become. Wow, deliberate decision not to tell even
the clerks that those passwords were online for months. Further
jeopardizing election security. Now, there's no evidence that there was
any compromise of election security, but it's still a major

(34:32):
scandal because you have the Secretary of State making this
deliberate decision not to tell the clerks themselves. Obviously the
public should have known immediately as well. But here's where
it gets even worse. Where's Polis, where's Wiser. Obviously if
this had been a Republican Secretary of State, we would

(34:54):
have had a true independent special prosecutor brought in everything
that should be happening right now, regardless of parties, so
the people of the state can be assured. But that's
not happening. So why are Wiser and Polists effectively circling
the wagons around Griswold and what effects that can have
long term. We'll talk about that Monday as well. Ryan,

(35:15):
tremendous job. Thank you, my friend, Kelly, You're the best.
Have a great weekend.
