In this hour of the show, Dan Caplis breaks down why Colorado has to get rid of its incredibly potent marijuana.

Episode Transcript

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. Thanks to Maryma Mobilati,
one of my Shiver people to interview. He's the mayor
of Colorado Springs, Colorado, got elected as an independent and

(00:23):
there's a lot of buzz out there about him running
for governor, and so we started our conversation with that,
and what he told us is now he's running for
reelection as mayor of Colorado Springs, but left the door
open if God called him.

Speaker 2 (00:34):
And for those who scoff.

Speaker 1 (00:36):
At that, I feel sorry for you, because I one
thousand percent.

Speaker 2 (00:40):
Believe him on that.

Speaker 1 (00:42):
I have no doubt that that's probably what it would
take for him enter the race of feeling that God
was calling him to do it, and so, but I
would not rule that out certainly, and we'll see if
that happens. If he runs, obviously he'd be running as
an independent, and then it creates such an interesting group

(01:02):
of dynamics that we've never seen before in a Colorado
Governor's race, right, I mean, which way would it cut
and would merit Moblatte have a chance to win? Outright?
If he doesn't win, is he going to take more
from the Democrat or the Republican? Well, it probably depends
on where he comes down on certain issues. So if
he ends up getting into the race, and again, I

(01:23):
think there are probably a lot of folks encouraging him
to do that, including probably some folks who have a
lot of money to back the race. Yeah, then we'll
we'll find out about those dynamics. Three oh three seven
to one three eight two five five the number text
d A N five seven seven three nine. And not
that you'd care, but please don't take my positivity towards
the mayor as as any slight to any of the

(01:46):
other candidates.

Speaker 2 (01:47):
Not at all.

Speaker 1 (01:47):
I'm just a big believer that you know that the
more talent, the more good people you can get into
a race, the better it is for the state. And
then everybody gets better, or at least the very best
get better through the competition, and then you see where
you end up. I'd much rather have a race like
that than just sort of a death march where you've
got Michael Bennett, who's really never achieved anything in the

(02:11):
political world, even though he's been given so much, just
sort of trudging along to what most think is going
to be an inevitable victory, you know, that kind of stuff.
But I think the GOP has a real window here.
If Mayor Mobilatty gets into the race, I think he's
got a path as well. We'll find out together. Three
oh three seven one, three eight two five five the number. Hey,

(02:32):
we open the show talking about a follow up on
No Kings, and I won't do that whole riff again here.
But bottom line for me is, why do you think
they named it that No Kings? These are really smart
people who've spent millions. They know that name seems kind
of goofy and frivolous, uh if you just look at

(02:54):
it from a normal messaging standpoint. So why do you
think the same people are putting millions into get millions
of people around the country. And I dispute their top
line number, but millions around the country out you know,
in all these different places in America, really strategically located places.
Why do you think they would name it No Kings?

(03:15):
My own theory can't prove it as fact. But my
own theory is that their ultimate goal with all of
this is putting in place the mechanism for mass civil
disruption in the places they want to have that civil disobedience.
And the name no Kings under my theory is because
what justified the American Revolution, what justified a violent revolution,

(03:40):
it was the presence of a king. And if you
think that idea is flawed, what's your explanation for that,
Especially when you look at what's occurring right now, which
is as the left loses political power, which it is
going to continue to because it's been exposed to so radical.
What's the left doing and you think this is exit D.

(04:01):
The Left is carving out places in America, big places,
and putting it beyond federal rule. Now they want the
federal money, but they want to make it it made
clear that they're going to do it their way, and
if the Feds try to send in federal officers, they're
going to swamp them with these big mobs. That's what
we saw in LA And it's only because Trump brought

(04:22):
in the Marines and the National Guard that the Left
was thwarted from their local takeover attempt in LA. We
were seeing it right now in Portland. Thank god the
Appellate Court at the Ninth Circuit yesterday said the President.

Speaker 2 (04:36):
Can bring back in the National Guard.

Speaker 1 (04:38):
But Portland's a perfect example of what I believe to
be the left's overall plan. They know they're not going
to have a violent overthrow the federal government, but as
they see the future without them having nationalized power, very often,
if at all, it's going to be to carve out
these areas where they just say no to the Feds
no matter what the Constitution says, and they over local

(05:00):
law enforcement with mobs. That's exactly what they're doing in Chicago,
right Brian and Nervada.

Speaker 2 (05:08):
You're on the Dane Kapla Show. Welcome, Hey, Dan.

Speaker 3 (05:13):
I think you're right about the whole no King saying.
For one, these mobs are like, what it's their average age,
like seventy years old. Nobody's really taken them serious. It's
just grandma and grandpa out there. You know, at least
they're getting out having fun or whatever. Nobody cares as
far as this marijuana thing goes, Dan, it's already out
of the bag. There's no way. It's like you're fighting

(05:35):
prohibition it's not going to happen. So that's where going
wrong on that one.

Speaker 1 (05:41):
Yeah, my friend, a couple of things there, And thank
you for that, because I know a lot of smart
people agree with you on that.

Speaker 2 (05:46):
But here's here's the point. It has been reversed before that.

Speaker 1 (05:51):
The first place in America to make this mistake of
legalized marijuana was Alaska, and they didn't even legalize the
Krakawana that the left has imposed. And what happened in Alaska, Well,
all the dead bodies, all the ruined kids, all the
harms mounted up to the point where Alaska reversed it.
They reversed it. Now, thirty years later, when the huge

(06:12):
money came in from the Left, Alaska went back to legalized.
But the only place to do it before US Brian
ended up reversing it.

Speaker 3 (06:22):
Yeah. But Dan, if you look at it, it's just
like you remember the bushes. They said, hey, we have
to center this music, we have to put a big
old stamp on says you can't listen to it. Well,
the first thing everybody wanted to do was listen to it.
So you have to do the battle through explaining why
marijuana is bad. But the if you just come in
like a dictator and say no, you can't do it period.

(06:45):
Then that's going to make people even want to do
it more. That's what people don't understand. So it's a battle.
It's kind of like a battle between the Republicans and
these nutjob Democrats. Here's you come completely not.

Speaker 1 (07:00):
Here's why I respectfully disagree, because when it comes to marijuana,
unlike your music example, the harms are very tangible and
very obvious, and marijuana is an equal opportunity destroyer. It
doesn't just destroy Republican kids or An affiliated kids, it
destroys Democrat kids. And you know as a parent that

(07:20):
the thing people care about most on the planet, that
they love the most are their children. And so Democrat
moms aren't going to sit by and watch their kids
and their kids' friends, you know, be ruined by dope
and not want to do something about it.

Speaker 3 (07:35):
Well, I understand what you're saying. It's the same with alcohol.
Alcohol has destroyed more people's lives than I can I
can tell you about. I've actually seen probably ten people
die of alcoholism.

Speaker 2 (07:47):
Oh yeah, yeah, And listen to the problem is you have.

Speaker 3 (07:50):
To explain to people why so you put out videos Hey,
this is why you shouldn't do it. But if you
tell somebody they can't do something, Dan, that's the first
thing they're going to want it.

Speaker 1 (07:59):
Well, Brian, thank you for the call, and I agree
with you about human nature and kids, etc. But here's
another thing with kids. When you decide to legalize it
in the way Colorado did, which was done for a
reason right by the left. The left knows a drugged
populations more dependent on government. The left once the big
money from legalized drugs. You know, you could have legalized

(08:21):
it in a much different way, but instead they wanted
more dope stores than Starbucks and McDonald's combined, and that's
what they got. And so the message it sent to
kids was, Hey, this stuff's good for you, this stuff's normal,
this stuff's great. That's why we have all these stores everywhere.
That's why it's legal. And that was epitomized by the

(08:41):
Hickenlooper administration that did away with its own health director,
who had a program aimed at kids called Don't Be
a Labrat, and Hickenlooper, under pressure from the industry, which
he took a lot of money from, he threw out
that campaign and he replaced it with what the marijuana
sellers wanted, which was the slogan, get this the slogan
they adopted for kids marijuana.

Speaker 2 (09:04):
It's good to know. I'm not making that up.

Speaker 1 (09:08):
That's what Hickenlooper overruled his own health director to put
in this slogan. In the industry wanted marijuana. It's good
to know. So that's the message that's been sent. But
here's the point that addresses Brian's concerns. Right now, it's
not theory anymore.

Speaker 2 (09:24):
We've had this. We've had this.

Speaker 1 (09:29):
Horrible harm in Colorado now for long enough that we've
had so many dead bodies, so many teen suicides, so
many deaths on the roadways, so many ruined kids, so
many kids who've had their motivation taken away. Everybody can
see the harms. It's not theoretical anymore. That's what happened
in Alaska before Alaska decided to reverse it, and that's

(09:51):
what can happen here.

Speaker 2 (09:52):
You know what we're missing.

Speaker 1 (09:53):
I'll tell you after this break. There's one ingredient we're missing.
If we get that ingredient, we can repeal sixty for
would you back that you're on the Dan Capla Show.

Speaker 4 (10:09):
And now back to the Dan Taplass Show podcast.

Speaker 5 (10:13):
I think that the instruction of the Biden White House,
Attorney General Merrick Garland decided for the first time in
this country's history to prosecute the former president of the
United States, who also was the steve opponent of the

(10:34):
Attorney General Garland's boss, President Biden. That had never happened
in the history of our country. It's not supposed to
happen on America. That's the sort of thing that happens
in countries whose powerball jackpot it's two hundred and eighty
seven chickens on a gun.

Speaker 1 (10:51):
Yeah, and then Kennedy goes on to say, Hey, the
Dems unleashed spirits that can't be contained now in terms
of this love here at play. That because word out
today at least CNN reporting that President Trump is seeking
two hundred and thirty million from the Justice Department for
violating his civil rights. And so we'll see what form

(11:13):
this action takes. But I wanted to get your reaction
to that. If that reporting is true, do you think
the US government should pay the president for this political
persecution of him? Three oh three seven one three A
two five five takes D an five seven seven three nine. Love,
you're taking that. My thought is he should be asking

(11:33):
for two billion or twenty billion. What was done to him.
What was done to him was so evil, so evil,
because there's no question. Listen, you can sit here and
argue about well, wait a second.

Speaker 2 (11:48):
In the document's case.

Speaker 1 (11:50):
There was legitimate concern about ABC and D or they
had this argument that would have survived dismissal. You know,
in the J six case, Wait a second, No, you
go back.

Speaker 2 (12:00):
To the root. What is the root?

Speaker 1 (12:02):
The root is No honest person on the face of
this planet can deny that all of those actions were
taken against him because he posed a political threat that
if he'd retired and be out of politics, those cases
would not have been brought. Everybody knows that's true. So
that's what you got to go back to. That is

(12:22):
not America. That is a banana republic. It's the opposite
of what we should be. And so I would not
begrudge President Trump any amount of money he would seek
in damages for that. Now, when you match it to
a legal sory, I haven't done that research. Right that
that's a very niche area of law. That's not what
we do. We do catastrophic injury and death cases. So

(12:45):
I can't say, oh, they say to Jablonski versus so
and so. No, I don't know what a court's going
to do on summary judgment with that. If President Trump
files suit. I'm talking about the right and wrong of it,
and all I know from forty one years. Somebody told
me it's forty two. Now I'll check of practicing law
on behalf of people who've been harmed in these enormous

(13:10):
ways is that when it becomes too expensive for corporations,
for entities to do it wrong.

Speaker 2 (13:18):
Then they'll do it right.

Speaker 1 (13:20):
And maybe that's the lesson that has to be learned
here is some big damages pay out to President Trump.

Speaker 2 (13:26):
So there are ways in which punitive damages.

Speaker 1 (13:29):
And again i'm talking technically here with the President's claims
and the amount he wants to be paid. But lawsuits
can make the world safer, and this is a good
example of that. The US government should have to pay
a very high price for what it did to President Trump.
In my opinion, three h three seven one three eight
two five five. The number techs DN five seven seven

(13:51):
three nine. I'll get to those techs shortly. If you
missed it earlier. Mary Emmy Mobilati of Colorado Springs. Fascinating guy,
what an interesting story. I'm sure there's plenty we disagree
on and plenty we agree on. But we were talking about, Hey,
are you running for governor? He says, no, I'm running
for mayor. And then I said, well are you closing
the door to it? And then we just talked about
his Christian history. Both of his parents' pastors in Nigeria.

(14:13):
He is a pastor before he became mayor. And you know,
if you're familiar with the Christian faith, you know that
we're all called to walk the talk to maximize our impacts.

Speaker 2 (14:22):
Not bad things, do good things.

Speaker 1 (14:24):
And if God puts you in a position to a
maximum impact, it may be maximum impact in a family
of two, a mother and a child, but whatever position
you're put in to do maximum impact, that's what we're
all called to do. And so he agreed that if
he felt that calling that, yeah, he would enter the race.

Speaker 2 (14:42):
So I don't know about you, Zach. I left the
interview thinking it's an open issue with the mayor.

Speaker 4 (14:48):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (14:48):
One thing I learned in journalism school is if it's
not a hard no, not a hard no for a reason.

Speaker 2 (14:55):
Well, and if it is a hard no, half the time,
it's yes. Right.

Speaker 6 (15:00):
Where'd you do your jay school? The University of Colorado Buffalo?
Did you fascinating Buff's?

Speaker 2 (15:06):
Man?

Speaker 1 (15:07):
At what an incredible campus that is up there by
the way, if anybody's thinking about where to go to school,
and so many great things happening at CSU, I don't
want to turn this into chamber of commerce. All I'm
saying is there are so many great things happening in
Colorado right now. It's a shame we have this lefty
leadership that's going out of its way to try to
drag us backwards because there are so many good things

(15:29):
going on.

Speaker 2 (15:29):
But so, wh why did you go to jay school? Sorry?

Speaker 6 (15:35):
I went to J school because I knew I loved sports.
But I looked in the mirror and I went, I
don't think I'm making it to the NFL. So how
can I get engaged with the Denver Broncos the Colorado
Buffalo's without being a professional athlete?

Speaker 2 (15:48):
And I thought covering them? You're being too hard on yourself.
But give me a favor.

Speaker 1 (15:51):
Go to Sean Payton, okay, because you're going to be
out of practice or something and just look them in
the eye and say, coach, I hope you learned your
lesson from Sunday. Let bonis play. The only problem with
this offense, coach has been you. You're trying to over control.
And how many great athletes if everybody listening can probably
think of themselves or some other great athlete they've seen

(16:14):
who has been hurt because a coach tries to make
them too mechanical.

Speaker 3 (16:19):
You know.

Speaker 1 (16:19):
And coaches are well intentioned, they did they want, you know,
but their ego gets involved. They try to over control.
Let athletes be athletes, so don't play. They're going to
make mistakes, but they'll do more good things that will
make up for the mistakes well.

Speaker 6 (16:31):
And like anything in life, you learn from your mistakes.
If you are kept in a shelter to bubble your
entire life and never allowed to make any mistakes, your
growth and development as a human being or in whatever
vocation is going to be limited.

Speaker 1 (16:44):
Yeah, but everybody knows from whatever they do in life,
whether it's raising kids or what you do at work.
I can't go stand up and do a cross examination
if I'm terrified I'm going to make a mistake. I
just have to be well prepared, trust myself and go
do it right. Just do it, trust it. And that's
what you got to let bo Nicks do. They've been
trying to over control him and you've ended up with

(17:06):
this boring, terrible, miserable offense. And only in the fourth
quarter when they were desperate did they turn him loose.
And then he gave him thirty three points in a quarter.

Speaker 2 (17:17):
It was amazing.

Speaker 6 (17:18):
Please do pass set along, please do pass at a
I will I thank you right from Dan.

Speaker 2 (17:23):
Thank you.

Speaker 1 (17:23):
And the last thing I'll say about sports today on
air is the Nuggets just had one of their most
important signings ever, the most important signing since Aaron Gordonan
that is Christian Brown and so yeah he is. He
is the real deal for a very long time. So
could not be more excited about. Well, you look at
the Nuggets avs Bragos. If the coach has learned the lesson,

(17:48):
and I bet he has.

Speaker 2 (17:50):
Yeah, exciting time for Denver sports. They we'll come back.

Speaker 1 (17:55):
We'll get back to all the life and death stuff,
including what about this. Should marijuana users be allowed to
possess a gun in Colorado? Federal government says no, you're
on the Dan Kapitla Show.

Speaker 4 (18:19):
You're listening to The Dan Kaplis Show podcast three.

Speaker 1 (18:23):
Seven one three eight two five five. The number text
d A N five seven seven three nine. We just
promote something great for tomorrow. I hope you're round for it.
I mean, both on the planet healthy and happy. And
this show we're going to talk tomorrow about the case
the US Supreme Court just took and it's not whether
a government can ban a frequent marijuana user from owning

(18:43):
a gun. So can't waiting to dive into that one tomorrow,
especially right here in Colorado, right, which made the big
mistake of quote legalizing marijuana still IAT legal under federal
on and it's really more like Krakawana because that's the
way the so called legal sellers want it. Oh, come
youong hook them for ever with this high potency THCHC
and the old stuff, the Teach and Chong stuff was

(19:04):
so damaging to begin with that. Yeah, that's why we
were the first place in the world to legalize it
the way that we did, and we have paid the
price for that.

Speaker 4 (19:13):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (19:13):
Me.

Speaker 1 (19:13):
Mopolatte, mayor of Colorado Springs, joined us for two segments
starting at four thirty six. Fascinating cat right came from
Nigeria and both his parents' pastors. He became a pastor,
ended up in Colorado Springs, ended up as mayor of
Colorado Springs. Very interesting guy might get in the governor's race.
And that interview at four thirty six, so he says

(19:34):
his full intent right now is to seek a second term.

Speaker 2 (19:36):
He is not ruling it out. Did you ever see
Dumb and.

Speaker 1 (19:39):
Dummer zech all time classics? So you understood my reference
to the mayor. So you're saying there's a chance.

Speaker 6 (19:45):
Yeah, yeah, I didn't even know that was intentional, but
my brain immediately went there, the classic Lloyd Christmas thank you.

Speaker 1 (19:51):
Yeah, not only when we were dating. I think it
was our third date. Took my wife to it, if
I remember the timing right. First date was a Buff game,
second date two days later was a Bronco game, and
then because I think it was a Bronco Monday night
game maybe and then yeah, Dumb and Dumber twice.

Speaker 2 (20:09):
It's a pretty good way to woo.

Speaker 1 (20:10):
It's remarkable she's still there. Yeah, probably felt pity. I'm
her mission work three oh three seven one, three eight,
two five five takes d A N five seven, seven
through nine.

Speaker 2 (20:22):
Texters are in.

Speaker 1 (20:23):
Fuego today, Dan, should antidepressant users be allowed to own
a gun?

Speaker 2 (20:31):
You think that would make them happier? I guess, Dan.

Speaker 1 (20:33):
There is a pretty good video from former Denver bronco
Brandon Lloyd about THHC addiction. It's called quote the t
on THCHC. Hey, thank you for that. I'll look him
up and see if maybe we can get him on
another Texter, Dan. It points out the same thing the
t on THCHC tech. Interesting point here, Zach. From a Texter, Dan,

(20:55):
you compliment see you boulder, and then in the same
sentence you say, the Colorado's problem is that it's run by.

Speaker 2 (21:01):
Leftist That makes no sense. It's an interesting point, is
I think the great Taylor Swift said in my defense,
I have none other than I love the place up there.
I just loved every day up there.

Speaker 1 (21:16):
And I guess it's fair to say I was a
lefty while I was there until I wasn't.

Speaker 2 (21:22):
I was a left I was there for five years,
I was probably a.

Speaker 1 (21:25):
Lefty for two, and then I was so much not
a lefty that they tried to kill me. Led do
an actual grand jury in Boulder, and so, yeah, that
was a wild experience act testifying before a grand jury
which was investigating the attack on me. I bet that
was a really interesting experience. Made the mistake, rookie mistake, right,

(21:48):
I'm what nineteen years old and I'm testifying in front
of a grand jury convened by the DA because of
this coordinated attack on me at a student government meeting
because the left was unhappy with me, and I made
the rookie mistake of trying to tell a joke.

Speaker 2 (22:04):
Nobody left grandeurs.

Speaker 1 (22:08):
Not in it for the humor, but not the best
comedy audience, No, no, And I was just trying to
lighten things up a little bit. Yeah, Time and place
need to do a better job with that. Let's see
what else we have from our fine Texters. Dan, Why
didn't Trump send troops to Mississippi with all the recent
shootings and other crimes because it's.

Speaker 2 (22:29):
A red stake.

Speaker 1 (22:30):
No, the great State of Mississippi made the very wise
decision not to defy the constitution. Whereas you saw it
in La, you're seeing it in Portland, you're seeing it
in Chicago. You have these lefty bastions that have decided
they're going to tear up the constitution and the federal
government's not going to be allowed to enforce federal law

(22:51):
in their areas.

Speaker 2 (22:53):
See, that's what I opened the show with. That's I believe.

Speaker 1 (22:56):
I can't prove it, my opinion, it's the master of
the very well funded, politically active, highly organized left, not
a violent overthrow of the US government. They know they
can't pull that off, but you flood the zone in
certain lefty dominated areas. You flood the zone with these
mass protests, these big mobs, and you overwhelm local law enforcement,

(23:19):
no matter how good they are, they only have so many, right,
and then at that point you're able to force out
federal government. And federal government's not going to be able
to enforce this federal law here or that federal law here. No,
that's tearing up the constitution. We can't have a country
that operates like that. So thank god President Trump has
drawn a line and said, no, we're going to enforce

(23:40):
federal law in LA. I'm sending in the Marines. Literally
he did, and he stopped that insurrection. Bid that's fascinating, right.
The left talks all the time about a J six
insurrection you look at these systematic insurrections. The left is
pulling right now in America, Portland, Chicago. Yeah, so no,
that's what we're talking about. But as I can tell,

(24:02):
Mississippi has been far more focused on some winning football
this fall.

Speaker 2 (24:07):
Do you ever watch the ReBs oh miss.

Speaker 1 (24:10):
Yeah, yeah team yeah yeah, oh yeah yeah. And they've
they've got a chance in the in the playoffs. Can
the Buffs still make the playoffs? Probably not.

Speaker 2 (24:22):
I would take a miracle.

Speaker 6 (24:23):
I think they could still be like a good competitive
team in the Big Four.

Speaker 2 (24:26):
I think people are too low on the Buffs right now.
Oh man, you look at their record.

Speaker 6 (24:29):
They are Some of their losses are nail biers against
two of the top twenty teams in the nation.

Speaker 1 (24:33):
Right and eyu, I think it's number eleven now, right,
But the Buffs are so much better. They have the
very best team by far they've had in the prime era. Yeah,
except for missing Shador and Travis. If they had Shador
and Travis, they're undefeated right now.

Speaker 6 (24:49):
Yeah, they're They're last year's team, but a whole lot better.
Last year's team only lost the games they lost because
they were so undermanned in the trenches. Now Colorado has
I believe, the largest op line in college football.

Speaker 2 (25:01):
It's night and day from what it was last week.

Speaker 1 (25:03):
That Ted has a very good CUBU football team, and
I'm excited about where CSU is going now. Jay Norville
by all accounts a good guy. But I think with
this coaching change and a beautiful stadium up there, you're
going to see a lot of good things happening there.
So all right, some more Texters and these cities in
certain locations taken over by Democrats remind me of Seattle

(25:23):
Chop District, living in third world condition among chaos and
squalor and rubber stamping it as utopia. Typical Democrat insanity.
My Texter friend, I would suggest this has nothing to
do with insanity.

Speaker 2 (25:36):
This has to do with a.

Speaker 1 (25:39):
Diabolical plan of the left to do what I just described,
which is to take over certain areas. And that's what
I believe this quote No King's business is about is
as I said yesterday, it is the rehearsal for putting
in place this system.

Speaker 2 (25:55):
We're on demand.

Speaker 1 (25:56):
They can call out to whatever areas they want, large
numbers of people to flood the zone. Now, most of
these people have no intention of being violent or breaking
the law. But once you get the large numbers out there,
it doesn't take much. It doesn't take much to set
that dry firewood a flame. And so my personal belief,
I can't prove it. I believe that's what this whole

(26:19):
no King's thing is about. To think of the name?
Why call it something as goofy as no kings? You've
got a lot of money to work with a lot
of smart people. Now they're what I mean by that
is intellectually smart, but they want to do bad things
to America. You got a lot of smart people involved.
Do you think they couldn't come up with a better
name than no Kings? No, what is the justification for

(26:40):
violent revolution in American history? It's the presence of a king.
So I think that name was very carefully chosen. Again,
all Siri can't prove it. But do you see any
holes in that logic? Three oh three seven one three
eight two five five text d an five seven seven
three nine, And then tell me what other explanation is
there for the name?

Speaker 2 (27:00):
No kinks?

Speaker 1 (27:02):
It's really silly, right, and these are not silly people.
These are very wrong people doing a lot of damage
to America. I'm talking about the organizers. These aren't silly people.
They chose that name for a reason. What other explanation
do you have, Zach.

Speaker 2 (27:17):
May have one. You look poised for action there, Zack, Yeah,
I think it's tough.

Speaker 6 (27:24):
I think part of what muddies it is the Democrats
are consistently much worse than the Republicans at marketing their
movements or just messaging in general.

Speaker 2 (27:35):
I think they really struggle with.

Speaker 6 (27:37):
Messaging, and so I think they can convincingly plead incompetence,
which I think your case makes sense, but they have
also demonstrated being uncompetent incompetent on this front.

Speaker 2 (27:49):
And here's why I disagree with that.

Speaker 1 (27:52):
Sick as a former Democrat for years and also interviewing
a bunch on air, I think there are a lot
of brilliant people on the left and they're unfortunately, you know,
they've decided to do these things that are terrible for America.
And I think what they understand is they can't send

(28:14):
a true message because.

Speaker 2 (28:15):
Then nobody would vote for him, right.

Speaker 1 (28:17):
A true message would reveal how far left they really are,
so they're stuck trying to come up with these false messages.
Which they've done for a long time. But then all
of a sudden, people can see for themselves what the
left really stands for. So that's why I think they're
messaging right now is so messed up because nobody's buying
it because they can see what the left is really doing.

Speaker 2 (28:40):
You're on the Dan Capla.

Speaker 4 (28:41):
Show and now back to the Dan Kaplas Show podcast.

Speaker 2 (28:52):
Well, yeah, he was making a point.

Speaker 6 (28:53):
I mean, why shouldn't the president, Why why shouldn't the
president use a made up video to respond to a
rally that has a made up reason.

Speaker 1 (29:01):
I mean, it's Scotching season a role going to be
senator from Kentucky as well, that'll be a great addition.

Speaker 2 (29:07):
And they're talking there.

Speaker 1 (29:08):
The left obviously out of its mind over the latest
tremendous AI meme from Trump. We talked about a bit yesterday,
flying the F eighteen. I think he's in and you know,
dumping mud as I viewed it, others see it is
that excrement on the No Kings protesters. And again, you
want a brilliant president, right. I'm not saying that I
would have put out that same video, which is why

(29:29):
I'm not president, But it's about persuasion communication, and you
know this is a new era, and and there are
different ways to cut through the noise and communicate, and
that's a very very effective one. So three or three
some one three two five five the number text d
A N five seven seven three nine. Let me get
back to these great textures today. By the way, Merrit

(29:51):
mobilat Colorado Springs sent them on for two segments starting
at four thirty six, if you want to check that
out on the podcast. Bottom line says he's running reelection
is mayor, but you know, if he feels God's calling
to run for governor, he would do it. And I
thought it was a really neat, very personal kind of conversation. Dan,
you are spot on, says a text.

Speaker 2 (30:12):
I don't hear that often. He goes on to say,
overwhelm the small amount of police and create fear. I'm
talking about my theory.

Speaker 1 (30:19):
Can't ProVet is fact that this no kings thing, the
people organizing it, and the Left's ultimate plan is to
do what they're doing right now in Chicago and Portland
and tried in LA, which is, you know they can't
win at the ballot box nationally, so you swamp certain
areas and you just run out the federal government. You know,
you can't enforce federal laws in those areas unless the

(30:39):
left approves. And so I think that's their long term
plan because they know that they're done nationally for the
most part. If the GOP plays its cards right now, Dan,
it's really too bad there was in a queen in
charge when the American Revolution happened, because the Dems would
have a hard time. I can't go on with the
rest of that, Dan, They're not smart, they are cunning.

(31:02):
Totally different. Interesting question, Zech, as a recent graduate of
the Great University of Colorado, would you see those two
as different because when I talk about the Left, I
use the qualifier right that they're s'morns. You get some
smart people doing moronic things, But to not recognize that

(31:23):
they have intellectual horsepower would be stupid on our part
because you have to know the reality of your political opponent.
And there are a bunch of people on the left
who have a lot of intellectual horsepower. For whatever reason,
they decide to use it to do bad things, and
so you've got to understand the reality of the people
you're trying to defeat. That's why I use the term smart,

(31:46):
smart versus cunning. We'll take some text on that. Dan,
you should read the article on the Blaze website points
out a song by Taylor Swift as satanic and anti Christian.

Speaker 2 (31:56):
You won't be able to refute it. You should denounce.

Speaker 1 (31:58):
Sir looked at that during the break and I want
to try to get the author of that piece on,
a guy named John macgillian. The headline is Satan has
a mixtape and Taylor Swift is on the playlist.

Speaker 2 (32:12):
Do you buy that, Zacht, That's not what I think.

Speaker 6 (32:16):
I don't think Taylor Swift when I think satanic music personally.

Speaker 1 (32:20):
Yeah, I want to get the guy on. I want
to have the conversation. I was concerned a couple of
years ago at the Super Bowl when she brought somebody who,
at least according to the Internet, was openly satanic to
sit with her. But hard for me to believe that
Taylor Swift would be satanic. The other thing is, have
you ever been around satanist?

Speaker 6 (32:40):
I think maybe in passing. I've seen them in media
more than i've personally interacted with them.

Speaker 1 (32:45):
See, I've been around a couple of times, and I
feel it. I mean, as weird as it sounds.

Speaker 2 (32:50):
I feel it.

Speaker 1 (32:51):
In one case, I felt it from two blocks away
and I didn't even know I was going to meet Satanists,
if that's what you call him. I found out fortunately,
just in time got out of the house where I
thought I was going to a meeting. I think I
was going to a meeting, but there was going to
be a ceremony, and I think I was the sacrifice.

Speaker 2 (33:10):
Yeah, but no, I can feel it.

Speaker 1 (33:13):
I think when I'm around Satanist, I think I can
sense that evil. And I've never since that. Like a
Taylor Swift concert now, I've never been around her. I
did have the surreal experience of watching Taylor Swift hold
our son's hand while she's saying love Story. You know
that song It's a love Story. Yeah, that was a

(33:35):
really wild experience.

Speaker 6 (33:37):
Her audience interaction is what makes her concerts seemingly. I
haven't been to one myself, but it seems like that's
what makes them so special.

Speaker 1 (33:45):
Yeah, and that's why I find it hard to believe
she's a Satanist, because the vibe at the concert and
I've been taking our daughter it's a father daughter kind
of thing since she was very young. It's always so
positive and loving. She doesn't talk politics at all at
her concerts, and the vibe is so positive. Hard for
me to believe that could be a Satanist up there.

(34:05):
But we'll get the author on and see what his
pitch is. Everybody you texted today and didn't get through,
I'm sorry I didn't get to it. I'll see if
I can work some in tomorrow. We have this really
great topic tomorrow. US Supreme Court's just taking the case up,
which is, hey, can the federal government fan somebody from
only a gun because they are frequent marijuana users.

Speaker 2 (34:27):
So there'll be a lot.

Speaker 1 (34:28):
Of interest obviously in Colorado in that, and we hope
to get some great guests.

Speaker 2 (34:33):
On it tomorrow. We'll do that and much more. Is
that always great to work with you, my friend, right
back at you.

Speaker 1 (34:37):
I've got to get an autograph from you that I
can sell someday. Join us tomorrow on the Dankapla Show.
