The narrative seamlessly leads into a segment dedicated to election integrity, where Munson lays bare the complexities surrounding voting systems. She underscores the necessity for fair and transparent elections, citing various lawsuits aimed at scrutinizing and challenging the current electoral processes. Munson passionately advocates for the public’s need to stay informed and engaged, as she illustrates the importance of every voice in the pursuit of democratic principles.
Notably, personal anecdotes enrich the discourse, crafting a compelling tapestry that blends national concerns with individual stories. Munson shares her thoughts on the power dynamics at play in local governance, emphasizing how community action and advocacy can lead to meaningful change. This approach invites listeners to bridge the gap between macro issues and personal life, instilling a sense of duty and purpose.
The episode further carves its identity by addressing a variety of contemporary societal discrepancies, from transparency in local policies to global economic agendas. Munson paints a vivid picture of how policies—be they urban zoning laws or international health regulations—affect the individual, urging listeners to adopt a vigilant stance against overreach and forceful compliance.
A lighter segment trails, offering a wholesome interlude featuring drive-in theaters and holiday movie screenings. This shift in tone serves as a reminder that while such weighty topics require our attention, moments of joy and community can act as a balm to societal strains. The spotlight on local businesses and entertainment provides a refreshing counterbalance, celebrating resilience and the pursuits of happiness.
Kim Munson’s latest episode serves as a clarion call tuned to the chords of activism and awareness. By melding sharp insights with resonant stories, her show not only informs but energizes, driving home the message that every individual’s participation shapes the collective narrative. It’s a poignant reminder that in the ever-evolving landscape of modern society, informed and empowered voices remain key to safeguarding the delicate equilibrium between freedom and force.
In this episode, Kim Munson immerses listeners in a dynamic conversation tackling the pressing topics of election integrity and governmental power expansion. Through the voices of informed guests and her insightful commentary, Kim challenges listeners to question the transparency and fairness of elections while spotlighting lawsuits and actions taken to uphold democratic values. The episode also features personal tales and comprehensive insights into how each of us can contribute to a more transparent and fair society by emphasizing grassroots initiatives and collective action.

Great place to get together with friends. to watch the games as well, and Hooters restaurants, how I got to know them. Very important story about freedom and free markets and capitalism, and politicians and bureaucrats and interested parties trying to use power to Say who can be in business and who can't. And so it's really an important story. Check out my website. It is Kim Munson, M-O-N-S-O-N dot com. That's where you can find that story. Sign up for our weekly email newsletter. You will get first look at our upcoming guests as well as our most recent essays. And you can email me at Kim at Kim Munson dot com as well. Thank you to all of you who support us. We're an independent voice. We search for truth and clarity by looking at these issues through the lens of freedom versus force, force versus freedom. If something's a good idea, you should not have to force people to do it. And the show comes to you on all of the KLZ 560 platforms. That is KLZ 560 AM, KLZ 100.7 FM, the KLZ website so you can listen anywhere in the world. and the klz app and the show is broadcast 6 to 8 a.m monday through friday and the first hour is rebroadcast one to two in the afternoon the second hour 10 to 11 at night and then america's veteran stories is uh the the weekly is three to four p.m and then there's rebroadcast of previous america's veterans story show and that's three to four p on sundays uh and uh then again other America's Veterans Stories 10 to 11 at night on both Saturday and Sunday. And this week we will be broadcasting the second interview with Pepe Ramirez, Sergeant Major in the Marines, a veteran, and really an inspiring story. And that will be 3 to 4 p.m. this Sunday. We look at these issues and search for truth and clarity by looking at these issues through the lens of freedom versus force, force versus freedom. If something's a good idea, you should not have to force people to do it. And it's not compassionate to take other people's stuff, whether or not it's their rights, their property, their freedom, livelihood, opportunities, or lives. And force can be obviously a weapon, but it can be policy, an unpredictable and excessive taxation. Fear, coercion, government-induced inflation, the World Economic Forum agenda, the globalist elites agenda, and all that plays into the United Nations, this Colorado state legislature, the Colorado governor. World Health Organization, land use codes, zoning regulations, and forced fees, as we see up in Fort Collins right now. And Yvonne Paez with Perspectives 101 is bringing people together to try to get their brain around what is happening there. regarding that force fee. So stay tuned on that because it would be great to get that rolled back. And if something's a good idea, you should not have to use force to implement it. Our word of the day is conspicuous. And it is spelled C-O-N-S-P-I-C-U-O-U-S. And it is an adjective. And somehow I didn't copy the whole thing here. Let me get that for you. So conspicuous. And just hang in here. I guess it's conspicuous that I did not get the... word of the day definition here. So it is, first of all, easy to notice or obvious. Second definition, attracting attention as by being unusual or remarkable, noticeable. And number three, to open to the view, obvious to the eye, easy to see, plainly visible, manifest, attracting the eye. And so you're... challenge is to use the word conspicuous in a sentence today. And I think it's very conspicuous, all of these accusations that are coming out against Matt Gaetz, who is Trump's nominee for attorney general. And he is very disliked by some on both sides of the aisle. And so we're seeing these different stories come out. And so stay tuned. It's going to be interesting to see how that is going to play out. Our quote for the day is from Leo Tolstoy, and he was born in 1828 and he died in 1910. He was a Russian writer and regarded as one of the greatest and most influential authors of all time. he received nominations for the nobel prize in literature every year from 1902 to 1906 and for the nobel peace prize in 1901 1902 and 1909 he was born into an aristocratic family and his notable works include the novels war and peace in 1869 and anna karina in 1878 And he said this, he said, since corrupt people unite again amongst themselves to constitute a force, then honest people must do the same. And we are so called to do that at this particular point in time. Let's see here. This day in history, I must have somehow erased a bunch of stuff on my outline here, guys. And I really am sorry about that because I had some great things for you. And so I guess we'll just go ahead and jump into... I must have done that. Operator error on my part. And so, well, we'll just not do this day in history. We'll go ahead and get into some of these headlines. And the first headline, which I found very interesting, this is from The Nation, and it says Donald Trump has not won a majority of the votes cast for president. And that is why these election projects that we're working on here in Colorado are so important. because they keep counting and they keep counting and they keep counting until they get to a result that they can use as a headline and that is why we must get to the point where we have free fair honest and transparent elections and the colorado 2024 election project i want to congratulate all of you who contributed and helped us with that. We were able in step one to raise the money for United Sovereign Americans to file their lawsuit. And let me just tell you, we had Marlee Hornick on yesterday, but we didn't talk about this. And so you can go to unite4freedom.com and go to progress, and you will see the Colorado lawsuit there. It was filed on September 10th. It wasn't we didn't start this whole project until June. And I just had it was on my heart that we needed to do something. And one of my neighbors said, gosh, I would like to help. And so the first thing that we did is we sent a letter to all of the county clerks in Colorado. just asking nine key questions about our elections. And we heard back, I think, from 39 of them have that information logged in and then decided to go to work regarding these lawsuits. And so this was filed on September 10th. And it says United Sovereign Americans and individual plaintiffs represented by counsel John S. Zachom and Andrew C. Nickel of the law firm Campbell, Killen, Britton and Ray have filed a federal lawsuit against the state of Colorado. The Colorado Secretary of State is the Colorado Secretary of State Jenna Griswold. Phil Weiser in his individual capacity as attorney general of Colorado, the Colorado office of the attorney general. Merrick Garland in his official capacity as Attorney General of the United States and the United States Department of Justice. And there were nine lawsuits filed in key states because we raised the money. Again, thank you to all of you. This lawsuit was filed and it says plaintiffs revealed $1,431,998. Facially ineligible or uncertain registrations resulting in 100,693 improperly counted votes and 34,912 more votes counted than votes reported. And that is the basis of our first lawsuit. The second lawsuit, again, thank you to all of you who raised the money. And we hired the attorneys with Peter Berneger with Wisconsin Center for Election Justice. And we raised the money for the attorneys and also for him to run his Titan technology, where the basis of that lawsuit is there are voters that are on the rolls here in Colorado that have moved out of state and are registered out of state. or have moved to different counties, and they're registered in the wrong county. And so that's the basis of that lawsuit, meaning that our voter rolls are not clean. And that lawsuit was filed on November 1st before the election. So all of this is super important because we're going to this headline, as I mentioned, that they keep counting because they do not want to let Donald Trump have a mandate, if you will. And so this says that Donald Trump's popular vote, and again, this is from The Nation, total has fallen below 50 percent and his margin over Kamala Harris has narrowed considerably as all of the votes are counted. America has given us an unprecedented and powerful mandate, Donald Trump declared in the early morning hours of November 6th, after all the polls had closed. Indeed, he claimed that he had won a political victory that our country had never seen before. Nothing like this. And Trump was excited by the numbers showing him with well over 50 percent of the popular vote and establishing a wide lead over his Democrat rival, Vice President Kamala Harris. The article goes on to say, unfortunately for the president-elect, the United States takes time to count 155 million votes, give or take a million. And the actual result will rob Trump of his bragging points. And so it just goes on to basically say the same kind of thing. That is why we must get busy regarding our elections and make sure that they are transparent, that they are clean, they are fair, that we can audit them. Colorado, I think, is at the tip of the spear for things that are legal but that are not right, as Yvonne Paez said regarding that trash fee up in Fort Collins. And so we are organizing for our Colorado 2025 election project. Stay tuned. I think you're going to be very excited about that. And so I will continue to keep you involved on that. Our second, the second headline, and I'm sure most all of you have realized this, but this is from the Washington Examiner and the House Committee's grilling the FEMA administrator regarding the discrimination against Trump supporters. And so this is really unbelievable that in the wake of these hurricanes that FEMA went past some of the houses that had Trump signs and did not help them. And so that is pretty, pretty frustrating. And then last thing I wanted to mention is. is oh this is um from cbs colorado it says colorado parents are uncertain as district decides which three highlands ranch schools to close and i think this is pretty darn disingenuous of the superintendent of the douglas county school district who they worked really really hard to get this bond passed, $498 million, I think, to build two new elementary schools and did not let these people know that their neighborhood schools would be on the line for being closed. And I think the timing is I think it would have been nice to have been honest about this. And so I don't know which schools those are going to be. But parents, I think, in those neighborhoods are super frustrated. And granted, I get why they might need to consolidate some of these schools. However, I think it would have been nice if they would have informed everybody what their plans were before the election instead of after the election. And I want to say thank you to Laramie Energy for their gold sponsorship of the show. It is reliable, efficient, affordable, and abundant energy that powers our lives and fuels our hopes and dreams.

You can email me at Kim at Kim Munson dot com as well. Thank you to all of you who support us. We're an independent voice. We search for truth and clarity by looking at these issues through the lens of freedom versus force, force versus freedom. If something's a good idea, you should not have to force people to do it. And I cannot believe that Thanksgiving is right around the corner. Advent season is here, Christmas, Hanukkah. And, of course, you're thinking about all these different gifts that you can get. And a great gift to honor your loved one's military service would be to purchase a brick that will be on one of the pathways of service at the USMC Memorial. And the USMC Memorial is the official one. It's right here in Golden, Colorado at 6th and Colfax. It was dedicated in 1977. And it's time for a facelift, a renovation, a remodel. Paula Sarles, who is the president of the USMC Memorial Foundation and her team, she is working diligently on raising this money. And this Buy a Brick program is really important. a great program, you will receive, when you purchase that brick, a beautiful certificate that you can wrap up and give to your loved one. But the memorial is a place of healing. It is a very reverent place for our veterans. And that is why it's so important to remember and to honor. And so a great way to make all that happen is to support them and get more information about what they're doing. Go to usmcmemorialfoundation.org. That is usmcmemorialfoundation.org. Next thing that I just wanted to mention, and this makes me so sad, but I need to talk to Lauren Fix the next time she's on. As you know, she's now CarSmarts. And it says, this is from Dagan's News. It says, And it's the American Auto Parts chain, Advance Auto Parts. And it says this report was by boosted. The closures will set to take place by the end of 2027. And it says this drastic measure is part of a new financial plan aimed at stabilizing the company's economy and ensuring long-term survival. And so I know this is an important decision for them. On the short term, this is going to be super difficult with people losing their jobs and landlords losing tenants, and so this is going to have a lot of effects on that, and so certainly we want to pray for them as they're going through this very difficult time. Something on a very much lighter note is Susan Kochavar, entrepreneur and owner of the 88 Drive-In Theater, is opening the theater this Friday, Saturday, and Sunday for a very special showing. of Saint Nick of Bethlehem. And it's hard to believe, but the weather's going to be beautiful. The high on Friday, 62, Saturday, 64, and Sunday, 54. So great, great days to put the kids in the car and go to the 88 Drive-In Theater to see the Saint Nick of Bethlehem. And we have the star of the show, Danny Roebuck, on the line. Danny, welcome.
SPEAKER 06 :
Hey, good morning. I'm so happy to be here.
SPEAKER 11 :
It is really going to be a great weekend at the 88 Drive-In Theater. And this is a darling movie, Danny Roebuck. And you've been in the business for a long time. You're an actor, director, producer. And you are very involved with the movie, not only as the star, but also to bring it to the screen.
SPEAKER 06 :
Yeah, it's not normally how it's done. I go do a movie and then Warner Brothers puts it out. But at this point, I've got my team of people. We made the movie independently and we're putting it out because we felt so strongly that we wanted to get it in front of people this Christmas. It's a movie about a man. Could I tell the audience? Please do. Oh, thank you. It's about a man. This is based on a true story. This fella lost his son at 16 years old. And the tragedy, as it would for any one of us, the tragedy sends him on a spiral down. And he loses some sense of reality, some sense of himself, starts looking different because, you know, when you let yourself go, and if you're a gentleman of an age and you let yourself go, you start looking like the big Mr. Claus. And people start mistaking him. They're like, oh, hey, Santa. And he finds that he doesn't hate it, and he adopts the personality of Santa. And the more he gives away gifts, the more he gives away his grief and comes to terms with what happened. It's something. There's a fellow named Alan Smith. In Pennsylvania, it's just a true story. And then we took liberties. One real liberty we took is we moved the story from another part of Pennsylvania to my hometown of Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, because setting that story in the Christmas city just made so much sense.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, I love it. And in this story, there's a love story in it as well, right?
SPEAKER 06 :
Yeah, there's, again, a true love story. He reconnected with his high school sweetheart in the midst of his despair. It's just good. We always say God weaves tapestries that are so beautiful you almost don't notice that they exist. Because things seem to fall in place, but things can't fall in place without a higher power. So that's my point of view anyway.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, and Danny, you've been in the business for a long time because you started in, I think your first show or your first movie was Cave Girl or something.
SPEAKER 06 :
I'd love to hear from your audience. Does anybody... Cave Girl. Now, I went to Los Angeles literally in – I landed in February of 84, and God was so good to me. I was starring in a movie in October of 1984, and it didn't – I promise you, it didn't matter to me at all that it was Cave Girl, a movie about a guy who goes back in time and falls in love with a cave girl. Any movie was a movie to me.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, and so this is this long career. And Hollywood, it's really a tough town. And so for all these years and all these different experiences, and now here you are with St. Nick of Bethlehem. And Susan Kochevar, owner of the 88 Drive-In Theater, said that there is a real hunger. out there for these independent movies like the movie that you've made. And that's why she's opening the theater up this weekend, which it's just great. Again, the timing, the weather looks great. And I wonder if she's going to have hot chocolate with the great popcorn that she has there.
SPEAKER 06 :
Doesn't that sound hot chocolate and cookies? Sounds like a really great idea to me. Susan is such a great person. We're all part of the United Drive-In Theater Association of America. I'm a member. I wonder what you call them, a member without drive-in, a member without – We'll say honorary member or something. Honorary member. But I'm such a believer in – and isn't – what a great place to watch an old-fashioned movie. And I love hearing that it's going to be a gorgeous weekend this week. And that's that's even better. I do think she's right. And I've been making these movies. Look, I make movies for anybody. I work. I worked for The Man. I just played Santa Claus in Terrifier 3, which was a very violent yet very successful horror movie, and that's good for actors to be in success stories every now and again. And I'll do any work that I'm hired to do, but if I'm making a movie, I can tell you it's going to be a movie that has a heart that makes you laugh, and this one is a comedy, and it plays very funny. And in the end, you're going to, you know, someone in the movie is going to be reliant on a higher power to get through.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, and so that brings up on your Facebook page, I find this quote so interesting. Uh, and you said art is a collaboration between God and the artist. The less the artist does, the better. I love that, Danny.
SPEAKER 06 :
Yeah, we should just be, um, a channel, uh, you know, our, our, our, um, not for profit through which we make many of these movies is called a channel of peace. And people can learn about it. If they go to a channel of peace.org, maybe they'd like to help us make movies like St. Nick and Bethlehem. Um, but, uh, I, I have, I, I'm, and again, I'm speaking of my own experience, everything that I've loved and cherished as a child has turned into, um, Part of my ongoing life and career, I, as a child, I was a vampire nut. I loved universal monster movies. And the easiest monster to play was Dracula because it only required you finding a tuxedo for your nine-year-old body, which I did inexplicably. And then my grandmother made me a cape. And I, you know, joined the circus and I was a vampire clown. That's how committed I was, because that's really a terrible idea. But I turned it into something. Right. So then 55 years later, I'm playing Count Dracula, you know, the count in the Munsters in a big Hollywood version of the Munsters TV show. And it's exactly like I was when I was a kid. I'm wearing a cape. I'm wearing the tuxedo. I'm, you know, I'm prepared all this time. Now, this sounds silly because I'm talking about Count Dracula and God, but the point is I had a path from there to here. Santa Claus, I was always intrigued by the idea of what it represented. We were born in half Pennsylvania Dutch, and St. Nick was a very special Dutch in the Christmas season because he's the one who actually filled our stockings at Kim's. St. Nick was a Greek saint, and at some point it transmogrified into a Dutch Sinterklaas, and then Sinterklaas was brought to America by the Pennsylvania Dutch, and then that became Santa Claus in a journey of good giving. So... My train of thought may have derailed, but getting back to it, I'm glad that the 88 Drive-In is recognizing that this is a movie families will love to see together. And there's a lot of. There's a lot of stuff coming at our kids this Christmas. One story, a kid writes to Santa, but he misses the word, and he writes to Satan. So Satan comes, and they have a Christmas movie. Satan. And another one, Santa Claus is kidnapped and, you know, they send some kid from the naughty list to help, you know, in their sexual innuendo. And it's all too much for kids just one story about people. Yeah.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, that's why it's a beautiful movie, St. Nick of Bethlehem. And Danny Roebuck, thank you so much. And this is going to be at the 88 Drive-In Theater in Commerce City. And Susan's opening the theater Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. And so it's a great film, and I'm really excited about it. So thank you, Danny Roebuck.
SPEAKER 06 :
Well, thank you, and I'd be curious to hear what your audience thinks. If everybody likes it, maybe, and it's nice again, maybe they can hold it over. But until then, thank you so much, and thank you for all you do for your community.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, thanks, Danny Roebuck. And again, I wish you, I'll be the first, well, probably not the first, to wish you a very Merry Christmas.
SPEAKER 06 :
I'll take it. I love it. Thank you so much.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay. I'm so excited about that. Susan is so creative. She is truly an entrepreneur. And, again, that's the 88 Drive-In Theater. That will be on the 22nd, the 23rd, and the 24th.

We search for truth and clarity by looking at these issues through the lens of freedom versus force, force versus freedom. Something's a good idea. You should not have to force people to do it. And we're coming into the Christmas holiday season and friends, family getting together. And if you're thinking of things to do, you might go to Pueblo, which Pueblo is the home of heroes, and visit the Center for American Values. And the center is located on the Riverwalk. They really are focusing on a couple of things. One, our Medal of Honor recipients with these beautiful portraits of valor, but also important educational resources. programs for kids, both public school, home school, to know our history, to become good citizens, to instill in ourselves these values of honor, integrity, and patriotism, these basic principles. The Center is nonpartisan and is nonpolitical, but it is doing such important work. And so I'd recommend that you maybe take everybody down to Pueblo and visit the Center. And there's great restaurants there on the Riverwalk. And I think it would be something that would be very memorable. So you can get more information about the Center for American Values by going to AmericanValuesCenter.org. That is AmericanValuesCenter.org. A headline that I wanted to mention, and this is and that's why the film Climate Conversation is so important, is this is from Fox News. And it says that Biden touts his sixfold climate funding increase under his administration, which was a defining cause of my presidency. And he was bragging about that of delivering $11 billion per year in climate financing. And that is money that was borrowed. And that was borrowed from our kids and our grandchildren. And in doing so, that is what caused this government-induced inflation. And it says Biden's comments came during a historic trip to the Amazon rainforest in South America over the weekend, during which he declared nobody could reverse the clean energy revolution ongoing in the United States. He says the fight against climate change has been a defining cause of my presidency, Biden said. And it's no secret that I am leaving office in January. I will leave my successor and my country behind. with a strong foundation to build on if they choose to do so. Since the U.S. saw this massive increase in climate financing under Biden, and in 2021, taxpayers spent roughly $1.5 billion. And all of that money went to interested parties. And ultimately, if we stay on this path, it will bankrupt America. So that is why it's so important to take a look at the documentary. It's Walt Johnson's project, A Climate Conversation. And it's just a little under an hour, but we've started a whole podcast series with that as well, with scientists and experts. And you can find all of that at climateconversation.com. I am so excited to talk with Dr. James Lyons Wyler, regular guest on the show. He is the founder of IPAC, which is the Institute for Pure and Applied Knowledge. and great educational programs. But I want to find out what's going to happen with him after the election of Donald Trump as the next president. Dr. Jack, welcome to the show.
SPEAKER 08 :
Hi, Kim. Sorry I'm a little late to the party. How are you? How have you been?
SPEAKER 11 :
I am well, and the world has changed somewhat since we last talked, Dr. Jack. And you're very good friends with RFK Jr., and he is being tapped to be the Health and Human Services Director. So bring us up to date. Tell us the inside baseball on all this, and what's next for you?
SPEAKER 08 :
I just want to take people back to the realization that when Kennedy went out on the stage and was introduced by President Trump, And the crowd's reaction to Mr. Kennedy was probably one of the – I'm reading his face in the video, but probably one of the happiest moments of his life. But vindication, not necessarily downhill from here, but a major stride. And the win really showed that Kennedy's endorsement was one of the most important political moves probably in the last hundred years or so. So why – why would a former Democrat like Kennedy actually be received with arms wide open? Well, when people looked into what he was saying, they realized he was rational, unbiased, and really concerned for the health of children and everyone in general. And so I shared that this event, if Trump were to win, would be a repudiation event. for the Democrats as a way to run a political party because in 2016 they sold their soul to pharmaceutical companies and allowed them to set their agenda at the local level for stripping vaccine exemptions at the state level. And this was, I think, their undoing, really. COVID had a lot to do with it. It accelerated it. But, you know, the... The future of this all really does depend on Kennedy getting through the nomination process and being confirmed. And the doctors have put together a war room. Some doctors have put together a war room to have all the doctors who can get the message to call their congressmen and say that we don't want Kennedy out. as director of HHS. And when we saw that, of course, I put out a call to all Americans who really do want to help him make America healthy again, that they should call their senators and say, we really do need Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as the secretary of HHS. And so there's a bit of a, you know, still the drama's going. I look at it as an opportunity for people to vote a second time you know, for their own health. But if you didn't vote for Kennedy the first time, right, you voted for Trump. Everybody seems to have voted for Trump. But, you know, this is an opportunity to vote for Kennedy and, you know, tell your delegate, which would be your senator, that you want them to cast their vote in favor of Kennedy. You know, allopathic medicine has grown. It used to be a charity. When we were kids, it was considered unethical for doctors and hospitals to turn a profit they didn't even like charging for parking and that all that changed in the 80s and in the 1980s there were you know some doctors who had rational thoughts about it and said you know we really can't do this and it's total it was totally anathema to the last generation of doctors that you would choose a product because it was more profitable over another product that was more effective or safer and that's gone out the window And with American citizens being as sick as we are, something like 50 percent of people have a chronic illness that they have to take a pharmaceutical medicine. You know, it does. We have been socialized to try to reach for a pill as a solution.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, and the pharmaceutical industry loves that. That has certainly been the movement towards that. And so RFK Jr. brings a new narrative to this. And I ended up in a debate with the head of Denver Health. regarding a sales tax increase. It did pass in Colorado. But they asked, well, what is the solution? And I said, well, one of the first things is I think people, first of all, need to start to take more responsibility for their health. And we want to try to get to a healthier spot so that we don't have so much of a need for these big industrial hospitals. I didn't say that. But so that people don't have such a need for pharmaceuticals and things like that. People, I think, have looked to doctors as, okay, if the doctor says I'm going to do it. COVID, I think Dr. Jack changed all that. And I think people need to reclaim their health. And I think RFK Jr., is the perfect person to be the director of Health and Human Services.
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, I think you're right that people can look to him for inspiration. He does take really good care of himself, exercises, tries to eat right and all the rest. You know, I'm 57 years old and I'm not on any pharmaceuticals. I went to the doctor, I think, when I last, I had to go to the doctor for a checkup 45 years, when I was 45 years old. And they were astounded that I wasn't on any pharmaceuticals. Your body reflects your choices to some extent, but there's also the reality that we live in a world that's just filled with food products that are bad for us. A ton of the food that we have on our shelves are banned in other countries from food dyes, hormones, hormone mimics. chemicals that just, you know, absolutely are, you know, they're given to pork at the, there's a chemical given to pork just before slaughter that has a specific effect on the meat, and that's a convenience, it's not a necessary, and it has biological, physiological effects. So, you know, There's more than just Kennedy directing HHS in terms of he's not just going to be the cheerleader for personal responsibility on health. There is so much more, so much more transformation that could be done and will be done. Let me just go through a few of them. The NIH for years has been, you know, focused almost exclusively on something they call translational research, which is how do we take the knowledge that we have from biomedical research and get products to market. That's literally the definition of translational. Now, you can put euphemisms on it like bench to bedside and back, right, and it sounds great, and private-public relationships. It sounds wonderful, right, private-public partnerships. But during that process, all up and down the chain of command at the NIH and at the FDA and at the CDC, these guys are picking the winners for us. Why are they picking the winners? Because they're their friends in the corporations, right? So it's hard to be unbiased, especially if you can earn up to $15,000 per project at the NIH or the NIAID that you're helping a company succeed financially. And you can earn money doing that. At the same time, CDC has a not-for-profit where pharmaceutical companies can inject cash flow into CDC. NIH has a not-for-profit. It's just crazy. People don't know that this has all evolved. And so what would it look like in the future at NIH? Well, we do have ideas on how to transform FDA, how to transform NIH, and they are not Terribly radical. What are the best combined therapies for chronic disease? That's a huge area that has been underfunded and needs to be prioritized.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, I think it's really exciting and want to continue the discussion with Dr. James Lyons Weiler and his thoughts about RFK Jr. They're good friends. And also want to talk a little bit about Governor Polis out here in Colorado and the vaccine mandates that we had seen and what happened with all of that. So we will continue the discussion.

SPEAKER 11 :
And welcome back to The Kim Munson Show. Be sure and check out our website. That is Kim Munson, M-O-N-S-O-N.com. Sign up for our weekly email newsletter at our website. And thank you to all of you who support us. We really appreciate that. I have Dr. James Lyons-Weiler on the line, and he is the founder of IPAC, which is the Institute for Pure and Applied Knowledge, and has created a great educational program through IPAC. Dr. Jack, I wanted to ask you about Governor Jared Polis out here in Colorado. I was a little late to this whole vaccine game and ended up, I had some moms that had reached out to me and said that there was some vaccine legislation that was going through at the Colorado State House. And I can't remember now what year it was. It was, let me get to this. I think it was back in... Well, 2020, I guess, was when there was this big meeting, but it was before that. There was some other vaccine legislation, and these moms were really organizing. And I read the legislation, and I realized that in that, that there was – that legislation would make it a law that we – a bureaucrat could – dictate what we put into our body in the future. And I was very concerned about it. And that's where I first started to understand that this was a real problem on these vaccines. And then back in 2020, there was a vaccine bill that was going through in I don't think that that one passed, but Jared Polis, Governor Polis, was in favor of that. RFK Jr. came out to testify against it. They had a special session on a Sunday afternoon, and I went down to that, and there were people everywhere. And Jared Polis was in favor of that. Now he apparently, because I think he wants to run for president, is indicating that he was really supportive of RFK Jr. I find it rather remarkable. Conspicuous, I'm going to use our word of the day. Conspicuous, Dr. Jacks. So have you been watching any of that out here in Colorado?
SPEAKER 08 :
Yeah, absolutely, absolutely, 100%. Well, the first thing I want to say is, you know, if you broaden the lens of this problem, There are people that have been hurt, injured, killed by vaccines, and then they tell the government, they tell their doctor, hey, this happened to me, and then they say, no, it wasn't the vaccine. But if you broaden the lens to include all of medicine, everyone knows someone that's had an adverse reaction to medicine. You hear it all the time. They talk about it openly. So why are drugs treated differently than vaccines? Why, on your television, when you see an advertisement for a drug, it says you may experience these horrible side effects. And the fact is the prioritization of research, and I know Governor Paulus said that he's enthusiastic about R.P. Jr. and that he... He really thinks that there should be science-based medicine. Absolutely, there should be science-based medicine. RFK Jr. and I and others, all of his supporters believe that we should have science-based medicine. The problem is that the type of science that has been conducted has involved picking the winners and minimizing the public's perception of risk. altering the perception of risk by the public through propaganda lies entrenched programs to bias the science and so on now that's gotten us so far and we're only here now but the NIH really needs to shift whole scale to looking at funding transformative medical research so we can have transformative medicine and the side effects the illness you take one drug you get sick they give you a drug a drug for another person everybody knows that narrative. They give you another drug for the side effects, create the problem, fund the solution, sell the solution. But we need to prevent and reverse those things. We need to prevent and reverse what's called iatrogenic illness. And the number three cause of death in the United States is medical error. Now, if you add how they treated us in COVID, the number one death was medical error because people were not given the proper drugs for bacterial pneumonia and sepsis. They died from bacterial pneumonia and sepsis. 95% of people on the ventilators did. We also have a mental health crisis that is only addressed pretty much by counseling and drugs, but there are so many other things that could be done. We need to destigmatize mental health issues, and we need to make people who are survivors of these mental health crises heroes, and that's through lifestyle change, integrative therapeutic processes, neurofeedback, ketogenic diet, so many ways. Now, I can say these things, and it doesn't mean I recommend them. I'm calling for science on these things. The NIH to date has not seen them worthy of funding. Metabolic disorder and diabetes, absolutely. You know, I believe we can cut diabetes by 50% in the first two years with the right kind of medicine in the United States, 50%. Got it. We can reverse diabetes, right? So preventing and treating autoimmune disease is the fourth area. If we get to root cause analysis of what causes autoimmune disease, I've said it here before. I've said it thousands of other places. Pharmaceutical companies reliably and routinely use aluminum hydroxide to cause autoimmunity in animals to test the drugs for the autoimmune conditions they want to sell drugs for. Aluminum hydroxide is the same compound that's in vaccines as an adjuvant. So when you take an aluminum containing vaccine, you're setting yourself up potentially for an autoimmune disease. Now, what do we do about it? Well, we have to prevent it. What does that mean? That means we might want to revisit vaccine formulation. Maybe we should study other adjuvants. And the FDA did. The FDA did the right kind of studies on adjuvants, but they did not include aluminum as a comparator. So we don't know how they rank. And so there's no messaging about, oh, we need to make a shift. Because the billions of dollars of contracts from the vaccine manufacturers gives them billions of dollars to buy politicians. So I have to give kudos to the governor for using his head, being rational, being reasonable, and saying America has suffered enough. This is the thing. This is a self-induced injury. Iatrogenic illness is a self-induced injury. We're doing it to ourselves. You know what I'm talking about? I would urge you or a patient or please contact your senator and say that you need RFK Jr. to be director of HHS, secretary of HHS.
SPEAKER 11 :
So that's the to do. And we need I want to talk with you. We don't have much time left, but I'm hoping that this whole vaccine schedule, this recommended vaccine schedule changes for our children as well. But what about you? I guess RFK Jr. has to be confirmed first. But is there any inside baseball you can tell us about you?
SPEAKER 08 :
Well, I'll tell you this much. I've been a close personal professional advisor to Bobby for just under 10 years. And no matter where I go, no matter where I'm seated, I'm going to be a champion of the public's interest in science. And that means that your interest in the outcome of studies and the fact that they have on the medical options that you have will be profoundly better if they're approached with objectivity. That's a tall order because there are forces in play in Washington, Bethesda, and down in Georgia at CDC and at the FDA too that bias public perception to maximize profits by picking the winners. We're done picking the winners. I'm not interested in promoting somebody's business simply because they have a lot of money, can fly people to Hawaii or whatever they do. I'm interested in promoting medicines and healthcare practices, not just medicines, not just drugs, healthcare practices and pathways to immunity that maximize public health. So whatever I'll be doing, I'll be working on making America healthy again.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, I love that, Dr. Jack, and I'm really excited about that. And then we just have a minute left. You think that there could be a change then, hopefully, on the recommended vaccine schedule for children?
SPEAKER 08 :
I think when Bobby is confirmed, and I say that optimistically, so don't sit in comfort and relax and think it's going to happen. You have to call your senators. But the day that he's confirmed and when he takes his office, you can bet that the vaccine schedule is going to be looked at scientifically. It's also going to be looked at forensically. as in what crimes have been committed during the persecution of falsified science at the CDC. so naturally these people are going to fight now i published with paul thomas a paper on the perverse incentives the maximum profit perhaps we shouldn't pay our pediatricians based on the percentage of kids in their practice you know more money if they get a higher percentage vaccinated perhaps that really does not allow them to take a moment and look critically at vaccines and look at the look at the vaccine information sheets and the contraindications Yeah, I think there's going to be a big sea change in how the nation thinks about vaccines and what they know about it. It's been behind a firewall. The perception has been manipulated terribly.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay, we'll call our senators and request a confirmation for RFK Jr. for the Health and Human Services Director. Thank you so much, Dr. Jackson. Let's stay in touch.
SPEAKER 05 :
Thanks, Kim. Be well.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay. And our quote for the end of the show is from Leo Tolstoy. He says, each person's task in life is to become an increasingly better person. So my friends, stay tuned for our number two. We'll be right back.

The text line is 720-605-0647. Thank you to all of you who support us. And you can listen to the show on all KLZ 560 platforms. That's KLZ 560 AM, KLZ 100.7 FM, the KLZ website, so any place in the world, and the KLZ app. As you know, we search for truth and clarity by looking at these issues through the lens of freedom versus force, force versus freedom. If something's a good idea, you should not have to force people to do it. Our word of the day is conspicuous, and it is spelled C-O-N-S-P-I-C-U-O-U-S, conspicuous. First definition would be easy to notice or obvious, conspicuous. Number two, attracting attention as being unusual or remarkable or noticeable. Number three, open to the view, obvious to the eye, easy to be seen, plainly visible. And I think your challenge is to use this in a sentence today. I think it's very conspicuous. I had mentioned this particular headline from The Nation. that said that Donald Trump has not won a majority of the votes cast for president. So here we are two weeks out, and it's very conspicuous that the media and politicians, bureaucrats, interested parties, all of them, they want to take this narrative. because they do not want Donald Trump to be perceived as having this mandate, although I think it's a little late. And many of you listeners have reached out. And so this is one of our listeners came in on the text line, said, three quarters of the population is not going to believe the change in the popular vote as it is coming in over two weeks after the election. Most of us recognize that President Trump won the popular vote, regardless of what they have tried to say on the stage. A question here regarding Danny Roebuck. Gammy, it's Danny Roebuck, R-O-E-B-U-C-K, to answer your question. And let's see here. I had mentioned... All of this money that Joe Biden, if you saw his little press conference in the rainforest, it looks like he just was walking back into the forest very slowly. But anyway, this is from Holly. She said, regarding the money that is being spent on climate change, since we do not have any money, are we borrowing that money from China, one of our enemies? That is one of the biggest polluters in the world. She's really good at connecting dots, particularly with that question. And so let's see here. Anything else? OK, I think that that is all of that. So conspicuous. I find it very conspicuous that the media is trying to now say that Donald Trump did not get the popular vote. And of course, I think that's very conspicuous on what they are trying to push regarding that agenda our quote of the day comes from leo tolstoy and he was a russian author he was born in 1828 he died in 1910 and he's regarded as one of the greatest and most influential authors of all time and he received nominations for the nobel prize in literature every year from 1902 to 1906 and was nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize 1901, 1902, and 1909. And his works included the novels War and Peace and Anna Karina. And I'm going to share two quotes with you. The first is, since corrupt people unite amongst themselves to constitute a force, then honest people must do the same. And so I think we all are breathing a sigh of relief with Trump being elected as our 47th president and getting government back, rolling it into making it smaller. And I hope that Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy can make that happen. And. I think we'd all looked at what a Harris or Biden continuation of that administration would do and just what that would do to everyday people. And so I know that we're all breathing a sigh of relief, but now is the time that we stay active. We must unite. We must reclaim our country. We must reclaim our state. We must reclaim our elections. And we've got an opportunity now. in history to make this happen. So stay tuned for our Colorado 2025 election project. We've got some very exciting things that are happening there. So again, the quote is this. It says, Since corrupt people unite amongst themselves to constitute a force, then honest people must do the same. And then another quote that I came across from Tolstoy. I thought this was really important. He said, Nothing is so necessary for a young man as the company of intelligent women. And as we've gone through this last election cycle and we've seen these angry young women, and the reason is, is because they have been indoctrinated. They've been told that they don't need a man, that their career is everything, that having a family is not being upheld as something that's really noble and good. And First of all, we need to change that, and we need to support our young women. But to see this meltdown of these young women, it's really sad to me. But I have a friend of a friend, and he's in his early 40s, and he is now engaged, has not been married, and his fiance is a delightful young woman. And he said that he realized that why he had not really married and not had great success in some of these relationships was because he had been dating liberal women. And so I thought that was super interesting because his fiancée is conservative. And so maybe that's a message to all of you out there, you young men and women, that you might want to... Just think what Tolstoy said, that nothing is so necessary for a young man to be in the company of intelligent women. And so young women work to be intelligent, and young men seek out such noble women as well. So that is just a thought. A thought on that. Let's see. The next thing that I think that I wanted to mention is the USMC Memorial Foundation and the great work that they're doing for raising the money for the remodel of the Marine Memorial. And they're going to have these great different pathways of service. And a really beautiful gift would be to purchase a brick that will be on one of those pathways of service to honor your loved one's military service. And during the month of November, there is a donor who is matching that purchase. And so check out the website. It is usmcmemorialfoundation.org. That is usmcmemorialfoundation.org. Let's see, another headline that I wanted to mention is the Colorado State Chemist has been caught manipulating data impacting thousands of water samples. And it's getting to a point where we really, that these government bureaucratic entities, we can't trust them. And so we really need to be questioning much of this of what's going on. And so it is super important. I think the other headlines I just had mentioned in the first hour is this headline regarding Donald Trump and the popular vote. Again, there's this narrative that they're trying to change on that. Also, the headline that the FEMA. And some of these FEMA employees had gone past Trump homes and giving them help during the hurricanes. And then number three, I'd mentioned number three headline that Biden has touted his six-fold climate funding increase under his administration. And, yes, I think we borrowed the money. They've also printed the money, which created all this inflation, which is affecting everybody in their pocketbooks. And, again, it's government-induced inflation that has made that happen. And it's so important that we... uh shed light on all of these different issues and we are an independent voice there was one other thing that and i'm going to talk more about that over the next few days is that colorado newsrooms this is um have been in complete colorado i said colorado newsrooms are promoting left-wing civic engagement and that is why our voice is so so important because we are an independent voice And we are independent because of our sponsors. The Roger Mangan State Farm Insurance Team is one of those sponsors, and they can certainly help you with all of your insurance coverage. And if you bundle it together, you might save some money.

SPEAKER 11 :
Well, I love it. Oh, my gosh. So what have you been up to this last week?
SPEAKER 09 :
Well, I was just humored. I was reading a story on endoftimes.org. Don't know anything about that publication. But the title of the article caught my attention, and it just kind of explains where we're at today. Sexuality expert, and you're going, oh, good grief, where is he going now? Sexuality expert claims that parents must ask their toddler for consent before changing their diaper. Wow. You got your six-month-old there with a poopy diaper, and you have to get permission from the six-month-old before you can change it. Now, there's the world we've moved into. Oh, my gosh. Yeah.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, it is a crazy world, but we're working to reclaim Colorado, and there's some exciting things happening here. We're so much in trouble, we've got the only way is up, I think, here in Colorado. But I wanted to ask you about Doug Burgum, who has been tapped to be the... Secretary of the Interior, if I have that right. And he is former governor.
SPEAKER 09 :
And the head of the Energy Council, brand new formation of a group.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay.
SPEAKER 09 :
Another bureaucracy.
SPEAKER 11 :
And he's former governor of North Dakota. And he had run for president. Oh, he's the current governor.
SPEAKER 09 :
Oh, okay. Current governor.
SPEAKER 11 :
And I had indicated that I had concerns about him. And one of our listeners said that, hey, the Sierra Club doesn't like him, so that means that he's probably good. And I agree that that certainly is some creds if the Sierra Club doesn't like you. But I remembered and searched it out that Bill Gates had given him a bunch of money, $100,000, when he was running for governor. And that relationship has me concerned, Trent Luce.
SPEAKER 09 :
That's the tip of the iceberg with Doug Burgum. So Doug Burgum is a native North Dakotan. He created what was called Great Plains Software. And I'm told by people in North Dakota that he didn't have a clue what he was doing in the software business. But Bill Gates bought his software company for $1.1 billion. And then Doug Burgum became an executive at Microsoft because they have a very large footprint in North Dakota. I believe that he was executive of vice president for eight years and then retired and did some – he created an organization in Fargo and was working on community development and things. And then all of a sudden just got the idea that he should run for governor. Well, he and Bill Gates, not only did he buy his company, not only was Bill Gates his largest financial contributor to both of Doug Burgum's campaigns – I am told that Bill Gates is spotted regularly coming to North Dakota still today to see Doug Burgum. Doug Burgum got into the Alfalfa Club thanks to Bill Gates. The Alfalfa Club is one of those secret behind-the-wall organizations that Jeff Bezos hosted at his mansion in January of 2022. And Bill Gates was able to create that opportunity at every turn. Oh, and Doug Burgum ran for president, if you'll remember. And his two main contributors were Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos, who both indicated they would give him an open checkbook to finance his campaign. That was only a campaign to get him what he now apparently has, which is a tap on the shoulder to be in a Trump administration.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay. Well, we're going to have to certainly keep an eye on this because – There's more. Oh, more? Okay.
SPEAKER 09 :
So North Dakota has a corporate farming law that says – basically the statute says that you can be a corporation, you can be a family corporation as long as one member of the family lives on the farm and takes care of the farm. Well, Red River Trust purchased the Campbell Farm for $13.5 million. And that Red River Trust is a subsidiary of Bill Gates. And so Red River Trust buying the Campbell Farm is a direct violation of the state statute that says if you are a corporation, one member of your family must be living on a farm. And so Drew Wrigley, the attorney general of North Dakota, launched an investigation to see if the purchase of this farm was was a violation of their statute. And lo and behold, he determined after his full-fledged investigation that there was just no problem with Bill Gates buying land in North Dakota. So that relationship is more than just a common passing. It is very tight, and it is very concerning.
SPEAKER 11 :
So, okay, I have to ask you on this whole property rights thing because – so there's family farms, and it may be that the kids don't want to farm, and so the farm comes up for sale. And – From a property rights standpoint, they should be able to sell their farm to the highest bidder, right? It's their property. They should be able to choose that. But there's so many concerns regarding a Bill Gates or China buying farmland. How do you match up those property rights and dictating who people can sell to and who they can't?
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah, I think that's a really gray area, and I would not argue with you that that's a problem. But when you have a state statute that limits people from out of state buying property or even in state that is a corporation, and I'm going to use the word of the day. It's the word that everybody's calling or talking about. You're picking winners and losers. This is what we have is a government picking winners and picking losers. And that's what happens when you have too much government intervention. And when you execute the law as it's written and treat all the same, that's fine. But when you start saying, okay, Bill Gates, we can't tell you no, you can't buy land so you can have that land. But you have to go back and fundamentally change if you don't think that you should have China or you don't think you should have corporations owning land. You have to change this and have it the same for everybody. And that's not happening. But I'm still, Kim, I'm still more concerned about about the easement situation because you're controlling the land without paying for the land. And we have people either willingly or through eminent domain being forced into giving somebody else complete consent of the land, which is forcing us down this path that we're not producing the essentials of life needed to maintain that free future like we talked about at the very beginning.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, yeah, and that is also something that I think you and I are both really committed to continuing to shed light on and to fight these conservation easements. Is there any new developments over the last week regarding your work on these conservation easements at all and these transmission lines easements?
SPEAKER 09 :
And CO2 pipelines. We had actually a very good CO2 pipeline meeting last night, which is ultimately a property rights meeting and an oversubsidized meeting in York, Nebraska. And here's the problem with this. We do not have counties who believe they have the authority to control what's going on from a pipeline standpoint in their counties in the state of Nebraska. It's a significant problem. And so I had a meeting. I worked with the group to organize a meeting in February in York, Nebraska. And we had a fantastic crowd, a great discussion, and everybody thought it was a good meeting. But nobody did anything. Now, Kim, and here's really the problem that we have, no matter what the issue is, now they're digging and putting a pipeline past York, Nebraska. And so the tail... of the dragon has been stepped on. And now you want to say, oh, wait, wait, this is real. Now this is happening. Yes. We said that it was going to happen in February. Nobody had the sense of urgency to act upon it. Now they're putting pipe in the ground. And what are you going to do? And so we had a fantastic crowd. I streamed it. I tried to stream it on my Twitter, my rumble. I'm going to restream it tonight. If you would like to watch that from seven to nine o'clock, that'll be on my Twitter, and Rumble, which is just Trent Lewis. And I include the discussion, but I also include, I'm a presenter. I had Jim Eschenbaum generate a video, and he's a county commissioner from Hand County, South Dakota. I think he's the epitome of what a county commissioner should be. And he made a statement, Kim, that just fits into everything that you do on the Kim Munchen Show every single day and everything I try to do every day. And that is, that through the referred law 21 ballot measure that went to the general election in South Dakota and won in a landslide, the citizenry of South Dakota figured out they are the government and now they're on a roll. And that's what we need everybody. We need Colorado, the citizens, to figure out you are the government and we are going to tell these people who work for us what's going to happen.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, and and this quote that I had at the beginning of the show, I went to Tolstoy and I think that you're going to like this. He says, since corrupt people unite amongst themselves to constitute a force, then honest people must do the same. And I think that maybe people are stepping back and. and relieved that Trump was elected. We have so much work to do. And that's the next thing I want to talk with you about when we come back is term limits, because we had talked a little bit about them last week. And you've got a great point on it. I think I've got a great point on it. So we're going to continue the discussion with Trent Luce. And if you're looking for him for all of his media, you spell Luce, L-O-O-S. And so that's where you can find Trent Luce is you can just search for that. And these are such important discussions that we have. And one of our sponsors is Lavaca Meat Company. They're located at Main and Nevada in Littleton. And a beautiful gift for Christmas or for Hanukkah for friends, family, employees would be the gift from Lavaca Meat Company, a beautiful gift box of some of their great meat. And so be sure to be thinking about that. And Lavaca Meat Company, again, is located at the corner of Main and Nevada in Littleton.
SPEAKER 17 :
Lavaca Meat Company takes great pride in selling only the best. Lavaca Meat Company is a third-generation family-owned business with its roots in eastern Colorado. Lavaca means the cow in Spanish.

There's great restaurants down there as well. And so check out everything the Center for American Values is doing by going to AmericanValueCenter.org. That is AmericanValueCenter.org. Trent Luce is on the line, and you can find him, Trent Luce, all of his media. And Luce is spelled L-O-O-S. And Trent, a couple of things. Something that I cannot believe was defeated out here in Colorado was the ranked choice voting and jungle primaries. There was over $15 million that was spent to try to talk Coloradans into voting for this. And it would have been very bad because it's really... The person that gets the most votes may not be actually the declared winner. And it really would allow only the rich or the candidates that the rich chose to be up for election. So it's a big deal that that was defeated here in Colorado and in many of the other states where it was being proposed as well, Trent Luce.
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah, it's similar to, you know, money has become part of the election cycle. And what's the latest number? Is it $15 billion that they say was spent total on the election across the entire country? But you have, and I'm just going back to South Dakota because it's a tremendous success story, on the RL-21, the people who wanted that to go get a yes have spent $5 million in South Dakota with a population of 700,000 people. And the grassroots South Dakotans spend less than $200,000, but there were 700 volunteers that were out beating the bushes, educating people. And that's why, Jim said, the citizenry of South Dakota figured out they are the government. That's what we need more often, these kind of examples to lead the way.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, and so you know that I did this voter's guide on all 14 of the Colorado issues and then some of the Denver issues. And we had success. I was a strong no on this ranked choice voting. And then over in Denver, a no on the fur ban. and the ban on meat processing, and those things were all defeated. And it really was a grassroots thing. I heard from so many of our listeners, I didn't want to tell people how to vote. I wanted them to have the information. Trent, so that they could read the question and then read the actual text of what they were really voting on, my recommendation, my reasoning, and then people could decide what they wanted to do or not. But this was a real success story for us, Trent, because our little voter's guide was trending on page three of the Google searches. And that was behind... the TV stations and the newspapers and Colorado Public Radio, which gets tax dollars. And it was because everyday people found value in it and they shared it and really appreciated that. And so I wanted to say thank you to everybody on that. But I think that we helped in defeating that ranked choice voting. And I want to say thank you to everybody.
SPEAKER 09 :
Well, this is actually not a different conversation than what I believe we're about to have with term limits. The greatest challenge with the election system, as we've evolved into, is that people don't do any research to go get the information. They don't go find that voter's guide, but you made it readily available, and so they became better informed voters. People typically go in and checkmark whoever color in the oval. for the greatest name recognition. And that ultimately leads to those problems that we have is that people do not become informed voters. They just go mark ballots.
SPEAKER 11 :
So that's a problem. So here in Colorado, and Colorado is the petri dish for all of the stuff that they make legal, but it's not right. And so to your point, whenever someone has an interaction with the government, so if they are getting a new driver's license, they are automatically registered to vote, which means it automatically generates a mail-in ballot, which is sent out to that particular address. And, as you know, I work with some others. We created the Colorado 2024 Election Project. And we have two lawsuits out there. And one of them is that our voter rolls are not clean. And so... I think one of the first things we need to do in Colorado, Trent, is we need to change this where people have to take some kind of action to vote. So if they want that mail-in ballot that is pretty convenient, they have to request it. Instead of all of these ballots being automatically sent out at great taxpayer expense or go and vote on voting day. I think we also need to compress how long people have to vote. And I think those two things could make a big difference on our elections here in Colorado. If people get this ballot in the mail automatically and they're told it's their civic duty to vote, and like you say, they just fill in the oval because they heard it on the radio or saw it on TV or social media, instead of doing the research, that's one of the problems of why Colorado is in as much trouble as we are at Trent Luce.
SPEAKER 09 :
What happened to the old concept of registering to vote? Just because you have a driver's license doesn't mean you should be registered to vote. There are qualifications to be a voter.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, see, that's the other problem is Colorado has made it legal for people that are here illegally to get a driver's license. And when that person gets that driver's license, they have to proactively say that they are not a citizen. And to ideally, I guess, to prevent them from getting a ballot. But if they don't say that, then I'm connecting the dots. I think that that ballot goes out to whatever individual. address they give. And the address might be an NGO, a non-governmental organization that might be helping them even though they're here illegally with services. And so do you not see how this is a big problem in Colorado, Trent?
SPEAKER 09 :
No, I don't think it's just Colorado. I think this is a problem that exists all around this country. I do think that Colorado is in the lead on many of these issues, but this is happening in every state.
SPEAKER 11 :
And so that's why we cannot, going back to the quote from Tolstoy, is that we honest people need to unite. I didn't start the Colorado 2024 election project until June. And ideally, I'd wish that I'd started a lot earlier. But now we are morphing into the Colorado 2025 election project. We've got those two lawsuits out there, which is super important. And we have we have a narrative right now with this secretary of state having the bios passwords to the tabulating computers out on the Web on her Web site for over four months. And then the fact that there were fraudulent ballots that got through in Mesa County and were counted. I think that's a real problem. And so we're working on taking some action on that. And it's one of those stay tuned and I'll let people know about that. But I think we have a real opportunity here in Colorado, Trent.
SPEAKER 09 :
But you're not addressing by doing all of this, which voter rolls need to be cleaned up. There's no doubt about it. But I witnessed a guy, Clinton Curtis, I believe is his name, walk through how he developed an algorithm to manipulate the vote after the fact. And I think that every vote has had an algorithm manipulation since 2000. Well, and that is why cleaning up the voter rolls, we don't get that accomplished. It's not the whole the whole pie I'm trying to say.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, you're absolutely right. And again, all these things are happening here in Colorado because in Colorado, we cannot audit our elections by looking like doing an actual hand count to compare to what the computer says. We cannot audit those elections. Where on earth would you have a bank or an insurance company or a business? that cannot audit their results. It's ludicrous that that is happening right now here in Colorado. And so we've got to change that trend. So we're going to work on that.
SPEAKER 09 :
Well, I'm told the Federal Reserve hasn't been audited since 1913.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, I guess that's a problem as well.
SPEAKER 09 :
You think?
SPEAKER 11 :
You think? So, hey, let's go to... I mean, who can be opposed to counting by hand?
SPEAKER 09 :
Okay, if you don't want to count by hand on Election Day, that's fine. There's really no reason not to go back to counting by hand. And I'm not foolish enough to believe that that eliminates all inappropriate activity. But I am very confident that if you have anybody questioning the integrity of the vote, you have the election, you generate the results, and go in and count a certain percentage of those by hand to verify that what the Secretary of State is reporting is representative of what was submitted. Who could be opposed to that?
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, I really think you could do the whole election. And I really think that that should be done before these elections are certified. Now, this again, I think this is a I was choosing my words here carefully, but we have it's really, I think, a dog and pony show. It's called a risk limiting audit. And my understanding is, is that the. Secretary of State dictates certain ballots to be pulled out for each of the counties and that then they look at those ballots as a litmus test to see if the election was correct. And I find a problem with that. And it just seems that we should be able to And anyway, they hide behind this risk limiting audit that that means that the election is transparent and certifiable. And I really have questions about that. And I think with volunteers, proper volunteers, I think that people could come in and that they could actually do an actual hand count and audit on these elections. And we really need to do that before they certify these elections, Trent Luce.
SPEAKER 09 :
Oh, 100% agree. And it's being done. There are people being trained. In fact, my wife, Kelly, went through a training process and she said she was worried about how complex it would be. And at the end of the whole day, one day of training, she said, this is so easy. We should be doing this all the time.
SPEAKER 11 :
Absolutely. So we're going to go to break, and we've got to get to this question that we had out there last week, and that's term limits. And I'm talking with Trent Luce, sixth-generation farmer and rancher, and we both agree that we are all about fuel, food, fiber, freedom, and a free future. I don't know if we can add any more words to that. That pretty well says it, but... It could happen. And I want to say thank you to Jenny, who started this whole thing on fuel, food, and fiber. And we had John Boson on the show yesterday with Boson Law, and he has indicated how important it is that if you have been injured to, first of all, take care of yourself, get to the hospital, check everything out, and then reach out to Boson Law and have a complimentary appointment about what has happened.

And we have Ron and Eric on the queue to talk to them in just a moment. But Trent Luce, we've got to just quickly talk about this today, and that is term limits. And you are pro-term limits, and I am not pro-term limits as far as passing legislation on that. And so you explain why you are pro-term limits.
SPEAKER 09 :
I'm pro-term limits because I've seen some horrific situations in the primaries. There are times that people should be eliminated within their own party. Replaced, I should say, not eliminated. It makes it sound like I want to go out and off them. But there should be a free opportunity in a primary for people within a party to say, hey, you're too much part of the establishment. And yet the establishment rallies around the cause and puts all of these protections in place. There's nothing free and fair about a primary election when you have the, whether it be the Democrat Party, the Republican Party, who is going all out at anybody taking on their incumbent. And it eliminates the opportunity for the people to truly have a say in what's going to take place. And you can clearly see, just look at the latest press conference with Mitch McConnell. The guy can't get beat in Kentucky because and yet he can't finish the sentence, and he continues to go back there because people in the same exact context of what we just talked about, people do not become informed. They vote for the name they recognize the most, and the incumbent has always got an advantage over anybody running against them, no matter what they have accomplished, what their voting record is, or what they say they're going to do. I just think it is time to put in place a term limit to put all of this into context and i understand that people have always said that the term limit is the people voting well not if you've been on the inside of some of these elections and know how that party goes to protect the incumbent at all costs
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay, and I am not pro-term limits because of just that. The people have a responsibility to be engaged and to be engaged in these elections, and our founders put in place term limits, and that is elections. And when Colorado put in term limits, and there were many Republicans that were pushing that forward, that is, I think, one of the beginnings of where Colorado moved further and further to the left. So we're going to leave that out there because this is a good discussion. But I also want to get to our callers. So, Ron, we have Ron on the line. Ron, what is on your radar?
SPEAKER 05 :
Thank you. I didn't get a chance to call in, but I'm Your guest from United Sovereign America and how she went in and the 300,000 that were here in Colorado or just Denver, I guess, and they were no good. Plus, I couldn't get it. Was it 18 million or 1.8 million? that were not – were irrelevant or illegal, basically. Okay.
SPEAKER 11 :
So the lawsuit from United Sovereign Americans, which we raised the money for this, and so it's an all-volunteer group, and they had gone through and they found these anomalies with the 2022 election and maybe – I think it's primarily the 2022 election – And so they informed Jenna Griswold, Secretary of State, that they had found these things and Griswold did nothing on it and they didn't have any money for a lawsuit. And so we decided that we would raise the money for the lawsuit and that lawsuit was filed on September 10th. And so the plaintiffs revealed 1.4 million, a little over, facially ineligible or uncertain registrations. And a whole bunch of that was the people that voted before they were registered. But then that resulted in over 100,000 improperly counted votes and almost 35,000 more votes counted than votes reported. So that is the basis of that lawsuit that is out there. And now we're in the legal ping pong back and forth. So does that help, Ron?
SPEAKER 05 :
Yes, but now if you go through all that, and I think that Polis is illegitimate. If you go in there, as well as the mayor, because you look at the voting for Trump, and everybody's saying this is a blue state, and you come back and you see what happened, I think because of the manipulation of the machines, And the irregularities, I think that they're, to be honest, I think they're a little illegitimate.
SPEAKER 11 :
Well, that's an excellent point. And just stay tuned as we continue to go down this road on our Colorado 2025 election project. So, Ron, thank you. Before we get to Eric, is there anything you'd like to say on that, Trent?
SPEAKER 09 :
No, I'm good.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay, sounds great. Hey, Eric, what is on your radar?
SPEAKER 04 :
Hi, Kim, Trent. Hey, Eric. You great Americans. You know, I am so jazzed and cocky right now that President Trump is in charge. I'm happy as a pig in slop, Trent. And you know how them pigs are when they're in slop. How come we don't get real cocky and have the people that lost their jobs that Joe Biden took from them in the XL pipeline and not wait 61 days, Trent, and then just start it right now? Just get out there and be cocky and then be ready in 61 days when he's sworn in and be there and just throw it in the Democrats' face and cut the red tape at the same time that he swears. you know, on his hand on the Bible. Wouldn't that be beautiful? Super.
SPEAKER 09 :
Oh, wait a minute. Who had his hand on the Bible? I'm not sure Biden had a Bible involved. No.
SPEAKER 11 :
Oh, okay. Go ahead. When he's sworn in. So, Eric, interesting point. Thank you. And we haven't even talked about that.
SPEAKER 04 :
You know, what are they going to do to him, Kim? I mean, he said he's going to redo it anyway. What can they do to the workers that, you know, were forced to lose their jobs?
SPEAKER 11 :
Boy, that's an interesting point. We haven't really talked about like the Keystone pipeline because we've been over on the CO2 pipeline. And guys, Trent, we can't really be against eminent domain and easements on CO2 pipelines and and say it would be OK for like the Keystone. How would you match that up?
SPEAKER 09 :
Well, eminent domain is being abused at every level. There's no doubt about it. And we need to remove eminent domain for the majority of these projects. People need to have the opportunity to say yes or no with their own property. It's just been an erosion for the last 50 years on property rights. And that, at the end of the day, is what we're fighting.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay, we have to stand for property rights.
SPEAKER 09 :
We have to stand for property rights. But also, Eric, The only reason I'm apprehensive about what you're suggesting is that we have moved so far at every angle away from what the Constitution is and says and stands for. And we need accountability for constitutional practices at every branch of government and every walk of life in the judicial system. And what you're suggesting is not constitutional. And so from that standpoint, we have to be opposed to it. But we've got to get back to the supreme law of this land. And if it's not constitutional and you knowingly violate the Constitution, it's time to get back to charging people with treason. We haven't done that since 47.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay, and I think Eric is so informed, and he's also strategic. I get what he's saying, but your good point, Trent, on that regarding the Constitution. We want to make sure that we follow that at all levels of government. Trent, Yvonne sent this over. She is the co-founder of Perspectives 101, and Fort Collins has these public-private partnerships are really important. they're out of the world economic forum they're picking winners and losers the city of fort collins has picked a preferred trash provider and if the people of fort collins use the competitor they have to pay the competitor and to pay a fee for opting out and so yvonne just had an informational meeting about that last monday night and she sent a picture on it and and she was explaining the proper role of government so i just wanted to give her a shout out trent we've got about a minute And I know you interviewed Yvonne last year at the National Western.
SPEAKER 09 :
I also have a vision that I'm going to interview Yvonne yet this week. That's what my vision says. Because I've got a red shirt Friday coming up, and I need a veteran for this week on Friday. So, Yvonne, you're it. But, yeah, absolutely. And I want everybody... to take what Yvonne said and look at what was passed without anybody knowing about it in the name of the Sustains Act. Just search the Sustains Act, and it illustrates every problem Yvonne just brought to the forefront. It develops more private-public partnerships and will eliminate property ownership, period.
SPEAKER 11 :
So we will stay on it, Trent Luce, and greatly appreciate it. And we are out of time. Trent, thanks for all that you do. I really greatly appreciate it. These discussions, we don't always agree on everything, but it's important to have the conversation because kicking the tires on ideas is how we get to a much better solution. So, Trent Luce, thank you so much.
SPEAKER 09 :
That's how the country was formed, and that's how we'll continue to create opportunity. Thanks, Kim.
SPEAKER 11 :
Okay, we'll talk soon. And the quote for the end of the show is from Leo Tolstoy, who said this, each person's task in life is to become an increasingly better person. So today, be grateful, read great books, think good thoughts, listen to beautiful music, communicate and listen well, live honestly and authentically, strive for high ideals, and like Superman, stand for truth, justice, and the American way. My friends, you are not alone. God bless you, and God bless America.
SPEAKER 15 :
rough road riding high through the mountains climbing twisting turning further from my home young like a new moon rising fierce through the rain and lightning wandering out into this great unknown I don't want no one to cry. But tell them if I don't survive, I was born.
