It’s The Kim Monson Show, analyzing the most important stories.
The socialization of transportation, education, energy, housing and water, what it means is that government controls it through rules and regulations.
The latest in politics and world affairs.
Under the guise of bipartisanship and non-partisanship, it’s actually tapping down the truth.
Today’s current opinions and ideas.
On an equal field in the battle of ideas, mistruths and misconceptions is getting us into a world of hurt.
Is it freedom or is it force? Let’s have a conversation.

And let’s see, a big weekend was up in Grand Lake for Grand Lake US Constitution Week. Keynote speaker was 89 years young Ron Paul. He was amazing.
Truly a great message to Americans. And ended up being a beautiful day. And then the weather rolled in after that.
And producer Joe, you made it up there for Dr. Ron Paul’s presentation. It was a great day and I think you had a great day, yes?
yes, ma’am. It was so much fun up there. It was beautiful.
The shops were fun to walk around and Ron Paul’s message was just fantastic as well.
It was really, really, really terrific. And so congratulations to Chairman Mike Tompkins, president Mark O’Vill and all of their volunteers for the amazing job that they did. It was great to be in the parade.
Just such a touch of Americana. It was their 13th year and I congratulate them and it certainly was an honor to be part of it. It just really was really, really great.
So again, congratulations to Grand Lake US Constitution Week for a great event. Our word of the day is baffled and it’s spelled B-A-F-F-L-E-D. And number one, it’s an adjective.
It could be not understanding or comprehending, number two, discouraged by failure to accomplish a goal and uncertain how to proceed. Use especially of feelings of defeat and discouragement. And then number three, thoroughly confused or puzzled.
And I will use it in a sentence and say, as I am looking at these ballot questions, I am baffled at the idea that all of these school districts are asking, have bond proposals, mill levy overrides. In this time of high inflation, where people have had these huge property tax increases, I’m baffled. I don’t know where all the money has gone.
And initially, I started off with, I mentioned this on Friday. And to one of our listeners, she had texted me regarding submitting comments for the Gray Book. The Gray Book is the local book that will come out kind of like the blue book regarding the pro and con and what these questions are on these table questions.
And I did get the blue book in the mail the other day, and I looked through it and it looks to me like it’s clear as mud. And so I am working diligently on my Voters Guide. We’re going to go through all 14 Colorado questions, as well as I will make comments on the Denver Public School question and also the Douglas County School District question.
But I hope that you can use that as a template. So what happened, one of our listeners then, I said, hey, if you want me to get the template to you, I’ll do it. Just text me.
And I saw the text come through and then I was rushing and doing all kinds of things to get up to Grand Lake and I’m sitting there at dinner. I’m like, oh my gosh, I did not respond to our listener. So I did.
And she is over in Adams 12. And they’re asking for 830 million in their bond question, plus a 34.5 million mill levy override. And I realize, I think we’ve got school districts all over the state that are asking anywhere from a half billion to close to a billion dollars.
The repayments will be again, bumping up against a billion or over. So would you text me and let me know if you have a bond question for your school district. And the text line is 720-605-0647.
And we will name them in the Voters Guide. And you can use the analysis that I’m doing on the Denver Public Schools and the Douglas County School District questions to help inform your particular vote on yours. But I’m thinking about the amount of debt that will be encumbered by the people of each of these school districts and they’re kind of presenting it as a silo, but the burden is significant.
And so anyway, be sure and text me and let me know. Again, 720-605-0647. And I know that one of our listeners up in Poudre School District submitted comments and was really right to the point on all that.
So again, text me and let me know if you’ve got a bond or a mill levy or both for your school district on your ballot. And let’s see here. What’s the next thing that I wanted to mention?
Let’s get over here to our quote of the day. And again, baffled, your chore is to use that in a sentence today. And our quote of the day is from Sir Harry Lauder.
He was born in 1870, died in 1950. He was a Scottish singer and comedian popular in both music hall and vaudeville theater traditions. And he achieved international success.
He was described by Sir Winston Churchill, a Scotland’s greatest ever ambassador, who by his inspiring songs and valiant life, rendered measureless service to the Scottish and to the British Empire. He became a familiar worldwide figure promoting images like the kilt and the cromash, the walking stick to huge acclaim, especially in America. Among his most popular songs were Roman the Glowman, We Die Chadoris, The End of the Road, and a particularly big hit for him, I Love Alassi.
That’s probably not politically correct anymore. In fact, now with what’s happening in some of our schools with the trans species thing, it’s probably they change it to, I Love Lamp, never mind. I digress.
He said this, I could tell where the lamp lighter was by the trail he left behind him. Let’s think about that as we live our lives each and every day. I could tell where the lamp lighter was by the trail that he left behind him.
Okay, hold on. We’ll put that on mute. Okay, this day in history, first thing, 1779, John Paul jones aboard the USS Bonhom Richard, defeats the British frigate HMS Serapis and becomes the United states first well-known naval hero and his quote, I have not yet begun to fight.
In 1780, British Major General Andre reveals Benedict Arnold’s plot to betray west Point. In 1806, Lewis and Clark returns to St. Louis from the Pacific northwest. 1957, president Dwight D.
Eisenhower orders US troops to support integration of nine black students at Little Rock Central High School in Arkansas. And in 2021, on this date, the Biden administration and EPA introduced first regulation against greenhouse gases, reduction of hydrofluorocarbons by 85 percent in 15 years. Again, that’s executive order on that.
Let’s see. Next thing, let’s just run through some of these headlines so that you’re up to date on that. First thing, this is from CNN.
And Speaker Johnson unveils a short-term spending bill, urges members to avoid a shutdown. I’ll tell you, honest Pete, I was back in Washington, DC in April, and they should be rolling up their sleeves and coming up with real solutions to these problems instead of this stopgap stuff to avoid a shutdown. And shutdowns right around the corner.
What have they been doing? Obviously, not their jobs. And so anyway, that was one of the things that was on a headline.
Next thing, this is from Politico. Colorado governor defends Aurora against Trump’s claims about migrants. And it goes on here.
It says, Colorado Governor Jared Polis on Sunday defended the city of Aurora against Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s claims that the city has been overrun by Venezuelan immigrants. It’s really a great diverse city and it’s growing fast. It will probably be the number one or two city in Colorado over the next decade or two, Polis a Democrat told Face the Nation host Margaret Brennan on CBS.
So it’s a great city. It’s safer than it’s been. Like any city, Chicago, LA.,
mid-sized cities like Denver, of course, there’s been an issue with gangs for decades in Aurora. And I feel that we finally turned the corner. Okay.
So Trump has taken using Aurora and Springfield, Ohio, as his favorite examples of everything that he sees wrong about the Biden administration’s immigration policies, often with scary anecdotes provided with verifiable details. Okay. Get that.
Scary anecdotes provided with verifiable details. So we are able to verify it and it is scary. And people are scared about this.
And so under this, it says that under border czar Harris, Venezuelan gangs have taken over entire apartment buildings in Aurora, Colorado, the former president said at a rally in North Carolina yesterday. And that’s absolutely true. And it goes on CNN article.
The governor is petrified in Colorado. He’s a liberal governor. He doesn’t know what to do.
The guy is so scared of these guys and maybe you can’t blame him. Now, that’s true Trump rhetoric if you look at it there. And then Polis went to respond and said, I went shopping in Aurora yesterday.
What a lot of Americans need to know is Aurora has over 400,000 people, it’s Colorado’s third largest city. Violent crime is down two years in a row. We need to fact check that.
Car thefts are down two years in a row. But that maybe that means because we’ve been to a high. And people, I think that even if Jared Polis says that, that things are very safe, I think that we actually realize there’s real challenges because of this open border, because of Mike Johnston’s sanctuary city policies, the city of Denver, and also the Colorado sanctuary city policies.
People are not going to Denver. They’re not going. I talked to so many people, said I used to love to go down, have dinner, go to the theater.
And they said I really don’t want to do that. I don’t want to ride light rail. And so even though somebody says something isn’t true, we realize that it is true.
And the strain on resources for Denver Health, our school districts, taking money from hardworking people, and giving it to people that have come here illegally, is just not right. And it’s a property rights issue to be taking money via taxes and fees via force, and then giving it to others. So you really need to go over to the website and read Alan Thomas’ essay that we just published.
And you’ve got to see the image that Zach put together with Mayor Mike Johnston. You’ve just got to go take a look at it. It is also relevant to what is happening here in our city and our country right now.
Let’s see the other things. We’ll talk about this probably at the end of the show. Some of these other headlines.
But I want to say thank you to Laramie Energy and Carousel Oil and Gas for their goal sponsorship of the show. It is reliable, efficient, affordable, and abundant energy sources that powers our lives and fuels our hopes and dreams. And those reliable, efficient, affordable, and abundant energy sources are oil, natural gas, coal.
And certainly we want other energy sources, but not from a subsidy standpoint, but because these other sources can stand on their own or can stand on their own economically. And we see this real attack from the legislative and regulatory and even a cultural attack upon these energy sources that really help us power our lives and fuels our hopes and dreams. So thank you to Laramie Energy and Caris Oil and Gas for their goal sponsorship of the show.
And another great sponsor is Hooters restaurants, and how I got to know them. It is an important story about freedom and free markets and capitalism. And they have five locations, Loveland, Aurora, Lone Tree, westminster, and Colorado Springs.
Great specials for lunch and for happy hour. And you can find those all at my website. And again, I thank Hooters restaurants for their sponsorship of the show.
And then the other thing I wanted to mention is Roger Mangan and his State Farm Insurance Team. And there’s so many things going on in our lives right now. Sit down with the Roger Mangan team and go over your insurance coverage.
Make sure that you have it tailored just for you and your life. We’re all different. We all need different things, have different priorities.
So sit down with them at a complimentary appointment. You can make that by calling them at 303-795-8855. Like a good neighbor, the Roger Mangan team is there.
So I switched my insurance to the Roger Mangan State Farm Insurance Agency. Get this. I actually talked to Roger Mangan, who has been helping people with their insurance coverage in our community for 47 years.
He helped me create a state farm personalized price insurance plan for my home in auto and explained affordable options. For personalized service and peace of mind, that you are working with a team that cares about you and your family, call Roger Mangan now at 303-795-8855. Kim highly recommends the Roger Mangan State Farm Insurance Team.
Again, that number is 303-795-8855.

We’re an independent voice and 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. We are into election season and wanted to let you get to know many of these candidates.
Any candidate that reaches out to me, I will give them some time on the show. And we have one of those candidates on the line right now. And that is Sam Bandemir.
And he is running for Colorado Senate District 19. Sam, welcome to the show.
Good to be with you, Kim. Thank you for the opportunity to have me on.
Well, absolutely. So, give us some insight into you and your campaign.
Well, as a native Coloradoan, I grew up in a Colorado where the American dream is alive. And it’s my desire and purpose, obviously, to return those values for our future generations here in Colorado. And I enlisted in the Navy at the age of 17 and did two tours in Vietnam.
And so I am proud to say I’m a veteran, but I’m running to restore fiscal responsibility and limited government for Colorado. And specifically, in my priorities, I want to repeal the Colorado bag law, make it more efficient for us to be able to go shopping. But there’s another reason for that is that I want to reduce and eliminate these state taxes that are masquerading as fees.
I want to encourage and develop the adoption of a net zero energy program. And I see where one of your sponsors today is the Laramie Energy Company. And so I do have a net zero energy program.
My home is a net zero. I know we’re out here converting homes to be net zeros. Can you imagine what that would do for our economy?
If we could convert every home and business to be a net zero, our grid system is too big. So we can do that. I also want to repeal laws and regulations that are hindering the development of our Colorado natural gas and oil production.
Kind of again, going along with your sponsor today. If we can get the oil and gas industry up and going again, that’s the kickstart to our economy here in Colorado. So those are some of the things I’ve got going and looking forward to.
I’m having fun with this campaign. It’s been exciting.
Well, and so you’ve been seeing Colorado, you grew up here and it’s not the Colorado that you grew up in, right?
No, it’s not. Sorry to say, but I think we can turn it around and we can we can restore that with some physical responsibilities of some of these just repealing a lot of the damage that’s been done.
Okay. So Sam, just a question. So net zero, it seems like that that narrative, there’s been a rub with that and then regarding our oil and gas industry.
So explain to so clarify a bit for me net zero and yet support for our oil and gas industry.
Yeah. Well, my home is a net zero. I don’t get a utility bill every month.
And we do that with a sustainable energy source called the ground source heat pump, where you use the ground temperature to heat and air condition your home. And it is the most efficient way you can do that. Now, why am I for the oil and gas industry?
You’re not going to make a switch overnight. And I am not for mandating things. Okay?
You don’t mandate things. So it’s going to take a while to get this thing to flip over. In the meantime, we need oil and gas to kickstart this economy.
And the truth of the matter is the oil and gas industry is not going to go away. We use that energy for our paving our roads. We use it for shingles on our roof.
We use it. I mean, there’s just so many uses for oil and gas. That industry is always going to be around.
So we need it to kickstart our economy right now. And we need it in the future. So but in the meantime, we do need to make this flip of getting our homes and businesses to be number one safe.
Because once you take that furnace out of there and go to a ground source heat pump, your home becomes safe. There’s no more carbon, the chance of that heat exchanger in your furnace causing a carbon monoxide problem in your home.
But, and I agree with you, no mandates, choice. And then also we need to lower taxes. So I don’t think these things should be subsidized.
I think taxes should be low so that people can make their own choices, Sam.
I agree. I am not for subsidies. Now, right now, as far as what it costs to convert a home to a ground source heat pump, there is a 30% federal tax credit.
There’s about a 2% state tax credit. And believe it or not, Excel will kick in about a thousand bucks. So there are subsidies right now, but I’m not for them.
I would just assume they do away with them.
That’s super interesting. That’s super interesting. What else do you want people to know about you, Sam Bandemir?
Well, that I’m for getting tough on crime, I can tell you that. Colorado right now is number three in the overall crime statistics, but number one in car theft. And so some of the things I want to, you know, we have a motto for my campaign.
It’s saving you money, keeping you safe. Obviously, the saving you money is to, you know, reduce our taxes and see where we can save our Colorado citizens’ money through taxes. But the second thing is to keep you safe.
And that deals with the crimes issues. And so I am for restoring the death penalty that’s been taken away from us. I want to support our police and first responders.
So with seamless cooperation between our police and ICE, so there’s a lot of things we can do. That I want to make Colorado a non-sanctuary state. So to control some of these illegals that are causing some of these problems like Aurora and so forth.
So a lot we can do, Kim. I’m excited about it. And I’m looking forward to being able to serve not only my constituents here in Senate District 19, but all of Colorado’s citizens.
So yeah, I’m excited about it. I’m pumped, having fun and excited.
Well, Sam Bandemir, thank you for stepping forward. What’s your final thought that you’d like to leave with our listeners? How can people get more information about you to contribute and help you with your campaign?
Well, I want to thank your audience to know that as a Senator, I will have two goals, saving you money, keeping you safe. With hundreds of bills being submitted every session at our legislatures, it’s important to know the philosophy of your Senator, and I’ve told you mine. But at every opportunity when given the chance as a city member of state legislature, it’s my opponent has opposed, has voted to raise taxes, keep your keep your favor funds, increase the size of our government, and remove parental rights from your minor children, and further restrict our energy industry, which is led to higher costs.
So if you like the path that Colorado is on with higher taxes, higher prices, higher crime, and bigger and more intrusive government, my opponent has promised more of the same. But if you’re ready for a change, I would appreciate your vote and your support. My website is samforcolorado.com, and I’m asking for your vote and support.
Well, and is the number four spelled out or is it?
yes, it’s spelled out, F-O-R.
So samforcolorado.com?
yes. Well, I’m proud of our website. I do have my energy program on there where you can download it.
So you can actually see it there.
Well, Sam Bandemir, thank you so much for stepping forward to run for Colorado Senate District 19. So I wish you lots of great luck.
Well, thank you so much. It’s been a privilege to be here with you today.
Well, thank you. And again, any candidate that reaches out to me, I will get them some time on the show. And we get to do that because we have these amazing sponsors.

We’ve got Cain on the line. And before I get to him, thank you, Jenny, for texting me this regarding my comments, where Jared Polis is defending Aurora against Trump’s claims about migrants. And we’ve all seen the video of this Venezuelan gang in an apartment building.
It is true. They have taken over several apartment buildings. And when he says that crime is down, to Jenny’s point, she said, it’s not because crime is really down, it’s because it’s either not being reported or not being prosecuted.
That is a very important point. And thank you, Jenny, for making that point. So Cain, you know him.
He’s been on the show many times. He is just tireless in trying to protect our children. And with that, he is the founder of Task Force Freedom Northern Colorado.
And he has been on the forefront of this battle for our children, particularly in Northern Colorado. So Cain, welcome.
Hello, Kim. If I can add to your point here, I’m a former police officer, former military. And what has happened with the reporting of these crimes is the feds don’t want those numbers.
And so where Polis is getting these numbers is from the feds. And they’ve been instructed not to report these crimes that are taking place. And it’s disgusting because people are really being hurt, killed, injured, property taken.
And so what I’ve discovered, and I have to apologize in advance, I’m a little bit heated at these people because I understand who they are. They’re communists and they’re liars. From polis to the media to most of the Democrat politicians, they are liars.
TV programs, The View, they lie to us. And they have to keep us under control, and they have to keep us divided. So anyways, I had to comment on that, Kim.
Well, and my concern, Cain, is that these illegal immigrants have been imbedded in our communities all over our country. And so what transpired in Aurora. And I, I almost find, I kind of find it interesting that Aurora is, we have a Republican mayor, and I almost wonder if it can, because I saw an article that what happened in Aurora, the Biden administration has helped pay for these immigrants that have come in.
And of course, Mayor Mike Johnston from Denver has welcomed them in. And then I wonder if some, I’m just, I don’t know for sure, but have they moved as many of these immigrants over to Aurora to give a black eye there? And then you see all of them politicking on all the comments on that.
I don’t know. It’s just conjecture.
So honestly, I believe that these are evil people, and their objective is to destroy our country. And they’re going to do it any way, manner, fashion that they can. And I believe everything that’s happening is a strategic play, is a move that they’re making to diminish our country.
What’s insane is Kim, and I think about our founding fathers and the Boston Tea Party, and these people are taking our money, our personal property, our property rights. They’re taking our property, and then they’re turning around, and they’re using every dime against the American citizen. Every single dime.
And I’m hoping that people wake up and view this government for what it is. It’s a tyrannical communist, these Democrats are communist Marxists, and they hate you. They hate you, Kim, because you’re white.
They use me because I’m a Negro as a weapon against white people. They have no intention of us ever coming together and living as one in this great country. It’s pure evil and it’s high time that we recognize what they are and what they’re trying to do to our country.
If we allow them to continue, we will be Venezuela.
Did you see, Cain, that you’re up in Northern Colorado, and this was from, I think, one of the newspapers up in Wyoming, that there’s a sign that has been put up at the Wyoming-Colorado border or near there, as your people are driving south into Colorado at I-25, and it says, welcome, I think, to Colorado’s Zuela or something like that. Had you seen that article yet?
I have not seen that, but it doesn’t surprise me because it’s unfortunate, because the people that are living this, they’re horrified, their lives are turned upside down. And then you hear a governor saying, it’s not a problem. Well, it’s not a problem for you, sir, because your daughter wasn’t raped.
It’s not a problem for you because they’re not coming into your neighborhood and breaking into your home and taking your vehicles and smashing your windows. You’re insulated, you’re isolated, sir. Well, speaking-
I’m disgusted by these politicians. They have zero compassion for the American citizen, but they reach out to illegals from all over the world and pander to those guys. You know why, Kim?
Because they need another victim. They had negroes as a victim for 40, 50, 60 years. They have the LGBTQ.
They’re their victims. And now they’re bringing in illegals. And I promise you, at some point in the future, the illegals are going to get a month for themselves because all victims get a recognition month.
Black history month and LGBTQ month. All their victims, all their weapons get a special month so they can maintain control over them. And I’m sickened by these people.
Well, and we haven’t really gotten to the subject that we were going to talk about yet.
Sorry.
No, no, this is super important. And I would say, Cain, you and I are friends. And because what we feel in our hearts, we agree upon.
But there are those that would divide us because you’re black, because I’m white. But then there are those. And I saw this one time, Cain, when I was on city council.
There was a woman who very, I’m sure, very competent, black and with a big company and with a high level position, I think in public relations or something like this. Again, I don’t probably have quite the details correct. But I remember that you know how government and business like each other.
And I just remember kind of this dance that I felt between this high powered woman who was black and this woman who was a high powered elected position. And I could just kind of see a dance that they were doing pandering to each other. And I felt it was because it was this race thing.
I didn’t feel that they had respect for each other because of who they were, but they were pandering because of the race thing. does that make any sense? I know that’s super nuanced, and I haven’t really ever shared that with anybody before.
But there was a difference between the way I saw them pandering to each other and to the way that you and I are friends because we have a heart that loves this country and loves all that that stands for. Am I making any sense?
No, it does because there’s an agenda, and that dance is around that agenda. You and I, we can have conversations about sensitive racial issues and never feel hurt or attacked, but we can have real conversations about real problems. The left, they don’t do that.
There are, I heard a person say the other day that they are, they’re actors. They put on this great show. People, I will say this too about, what’s her name?
Kamala? They’ll say she’s dumb. No, no, she’s not.
She’s brilliant. She’s brilliant. She’ll get an Oscar award for what she’s doing.
Now, she’s a puppet, but she’s brilliant at what she’s doing. And to prove it to you, how many Democrats are turning their back on the nonsense that she’s saying? None.
Very few. They see it, they hear it, and very few of them will turn their back. She’s brilliant.
And when we look at people that are criminals, communists, Marxists, and we set back and go, no, she’s just a dummy. Well, you just set yourself out for a major attack, and it’s going to come and hit you right in the face. We need to look at these people for what they are.
They’re Marxists, they’re communists, they hate you, they hate me, they hate the country, they hate our founding fathers. I’ve heard down at the Dome of dummies, people cast eyes at our founding fathers, and want to reverse everything. Okay, all right, let’s reverse the Declaration of Independence.
Where does that leave me, Kim? Where does that leave me? That document set me free.
It took 75 to 80 years, but it set me free. If that document doesn’t exist, I am still a slave. We are no longer this great country that we are, but they will absolutely demean and diminish our founding fathers, these very men who owned slaves, these young boys who grew up owning slaves under that slave culture, and were able to say, this is not right, all men are created equal.
All men. That’s a major shift in their culture. And it takes time for that change to affect the spirit.
And then we had a war. And since that war, the Democrat Party, these communists, have been fighting against the American Negro. Since that war, I read something recently about when Lincoln was killed, I can’t remember the first name, I think it’s Johnson is the last name, was a vice president.
They impeached this guy because he was trying to re-implement slavery. Johnson, look it up. Listen, I’m just a regular guy and I like to read every now and then.
The Democrat Party has been against the American Negro since the beginning of our freedom. They fought every, the 13th Amendment, the 14th Amendment, the 15th Amendment. They fought every last one of them.
The Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Democrat Party fought against it. Why in the world do negroes support the Democrat Party? Let me say this, Kim, if I can.
The Democrat Party started to KKK. The KKK. The KKK, the Democrat Party, they hanged, castrated, and set Black people, men, women, and children.
They set them on fire, Kim, and they did it for fun. The Democrat Party. Why anyone would ever support a party like that?
Because these Democrats, they’ll reach all the way back 200 years and say, these evil white people. Well, I’m going to reach back about 100 years and say, these evil Democrats. They’re pathetic.
And what did they do, Kim? They brought in Black folks. They brought in these fools that said that they were going to support Black people on the Black agenda.
And they’re traitors. They’ve done nothing. The Black Caucus, the NAACP, lester Holt.
You’re going to do a story on the 8,000 to 10,000 Black people that were killed, are killed every single year by other Black people. Not to mention the hundreds of thousands of Black men, women and children that are injured every single year by other Black people. And these fools, these so-called Black leaders have said nothing.
Not one stinking word. So I’m not surprised by what’s going on with these immigrants, these illegal aliens coming in and nobody’s reporting it. No one’s talking about the rapes and the murders and the robberies.
No one’s. They haven’t been doing it to the Negro community for decades and decades. They’ve ignored it.
In fact, the Democrat Party, the KKK, they disappeared. They didn’t need them anymore. You know why?
Because they convinced Black folks to kill themselves.
Oh my gosh.
They convinced the Negro to kill one another. There’s no need for the KKK. They created an environment from…
LBJ did this. He took fathers out of the home. He took fathers out of the home, knowing that the foundation of a family is the father.
And look what happened. Prior to the 60s, 80% of Black families had a mom and dad. Today it’s about 20.
And that’s what they’re doing to white America today. They know, if we remove the lion, if we remove that lion, then the jackals can run free. And they’ve been running free for decades and decades.
I’ll give you another example. And this is abortion, if I can for one second. Okay.
Abortion. What did they say was abortion? My body, my choice.
Where’s the man? He planted that seed. Where’s the man?
He planted the seed. Shouldn’t a man have to say so? No, they understand.
If I remove the lion, the jackal can run free.
Wow. And now, of course, in our there’ll be a valid question in Colorado to enshrine abortion up until the time of birth here in enshrined in our Constitution. We must say no to that.
And let’s see. Now, I’m drawing a blank. Louisiana Senator, he said, Where is the most dangerous place for a black child?
And he said, the womb. And he was referring to the abortion of so many black children. So Cain, let’s go to break.
I’m talking with Cain and we want to talk about what is happening in our schools. And as you can see, he pulls no punches. And there is a reason because we are in a very, very dangerous, important time in our country.

Cain is on the line. Cain, we’re running, we’re going to run out of time. This is, this is so important.
And maybe you can, maybe we can reconnect in the last segment of this next hour if that works. But Eric, a fellow, proud American Negro, said good morning, Kim and Cain. Preach on my brother, you great American fellow Negro, is what he said.
And he said, also, the KKK hung us black people at picnics. And that’s why we don’t say the word. That’s why we say barbecue.
I, I didn’t even know some of this stuff, Cain, but so maybe comment on that. And let’s get over here to the school thing too.
I have heard that most of my adult life, that that’s where the word picnic came from. So, but I have to do some research on this. I will say this.
Eric is an amazing, amazing person. I love him dearly. And, but people need to understand what the Democrat Party is.
That we have taken on and accepted. Hey, let me, let me say this real quick. The Jewish population, they were enslaved.
They were tormented by the Nazis. Okay. When they were set free, how many of them joined?
And we can add, ask Bradley back. How many of the Jewish people join the Nazi party? I would say not one.
I would say not one. The American Negro was enslaved for a couple of hundred years. Battered, just mistreated.
How many American negroes join the Democrat Party? About 80, 90 percent of us. Why?
I think it’s Stockholm syndrome, or we got, we were played by the Democrat Party where they pulled in all these black folks so they can suck negroes into their party, and then control them, and then they try to destroy us. There’s something about the American Negro that the Democrat Party fears to where they have to kill the babies. By the millions, all 35 million black babies are aborted, have been aborted since 1972.
A third of all abortions are conducted by 6% of the population. Margaret Sanger started this process to commit genocide on black folks. Why in the world is the Democrat Party supporting genocide against black people?
Because they don’t care, it’s power, it’s money, it’s I fear these negroes because they are strong. Well, when they put their minds to…
I’m sorry, go ahead. Finish that thought and then I’ll comment.
And when they know that, they know inherently that when black people put their minds to something, stand by, you’re going to catch some heat from these people. And they’ve known that, and they’ve destroyed the black family. How many, how many Ben Carson’s have been murdered, not just by abortion, but in the government schools, in these rundown cities that are all run by Democrats.
How many of these babies just had no future because they took away the father.
So, so Cain, we’re going to need, you have so much more I want to talk to you about. So, but it’s not just the black population is happening, as you say now, in the white population as well. But it really was focused on the black population.
And so I think honestly, Kim, I think we were the beta test. I do. I think American negroes were the beta test on how we can control an entire race of people, an entire culture of people.
And yes, you’re right. Everything that has happened to negroes since we were freed by Lincoln, these Democrats are doing it to white people. Well, and they know that it works because it starts with removing that father.
What do we do? We can’t even tell you what a woman is. Sick people can walk around as a with a with a male parts and say that they’re a woman.
Men, if you look at the commercials, men, white men are feminized and demonized and simple commercials. It’s a brainwashing.
It is a brainwashing. But because of you, Cain, don’t you feel that people are that we’re waking up to this and we’re working to get this turned around? yes.
yes, at 100 percent. People are waking up and I just simply encourage folks, you push back, you push back. When they call you racist, push back.
When they’re telling your son or daughter that they can identify as the opposite sex in school, this is done on purpose. Their ultimate goal is to harm, is to create mental illness in these children. In one more decade, they will be able to tell your kids where to go, what to do, and how high to jump.
And they won’t push back. It is important for men to show their children. I am not going to tolerate you hurting my child.
Your children need to see you stand up and protect them. You are their example. If you’re not standing up to protect them, they don’t have the example to go forth and fight, and they will become the Nainians.
I have five pages of notes, and I have not covered one.
I know.
I don’t know how we got over on this, and we’re out of time on that. So Cain, let’s do for sure the last segment in the next hour. Let’s have you call back in on that.
This is really important stuff. And like you say, we didn’t even hit what we wanted to talk about. And Cain, but before we go, how can people find Task Force Freedom?
yes, I’m at taskforcefreedom, nocode.com. And what you’ll find there is information on pornography that are in these schools here in Northern Colorado. We have documents to talk about.
It’s called Did You Know? It was put together by Winsome ministries up here. And it really talks to you, it explains to you the rights that parents have lost, like they no longer exist.
And that’s taskforcefreedom, nocode.com, right?
yes, ma’am.
Okay, okay. Well, we’re out of time, Cain. Thank you so much.

The socialization of transportation, education, energy, housing and water. What it means is that government controls it through rules and regulations.
The latest in politics and world affairs.
Under the guise of bipartisanship and non-partisanship, it’s actually tapping down the truth.
Today’s current opinions and ideas.
On an equal field in the battle of ideas, mistruths and misconceptions is getting us into a world of hurt.
Is it freedom or is it force? Let’s have a conversation.
Indeed, let’s have a conversation. Welcome to our number two of The Kim Monson Show. Thank you so much for joining us.
You’re each treasured, you’re valued, you have purpose today. Strive for excellence. Take care of your heart, your soul, your mind and your body.
My friends, we were made for this moment. Thank you to the team. That’s producer Joe, Luke, Rachel, Zach, Echo, Charlie, Mike, and all the people here at Crawford Broadcasting.
Happy Monday, producer Joe.
Happy Monday, Kim.
And boy, really important first hour with Cain. And we didn’t really get to the subjects that we were going to talk about. And I wanted to ask him about what he thought about all of this debt that each of these school districts are asking their their citizens to approve.
And as I’m starting to realize, this is a copy and paste. We need it for this. We need it for this.
We need it for this. And where it’s not without increasing taxes, but it’s extending taxes. If you extend a tax that would have gone away, you are actually increasing taxes.
That’s disingenuous. Or as some of my friends have said, it’s dishonest. And bye, guys.
If you have government coming to you and asking a question and they’re being dishonest right off the top, I don’t think you should trust them with more money. And so I’m working on the Voters’ Guide as we speak. And it is extensive.
There’s 14 questions on the Colorado ballot. And we’ll take on some of the others, that some of the Denver questions, the school questions, there’s some detabling questions. And so we’re working diligently on that.
And we hope that it will be a good tool for you, not to tell you how to vote, but how you can educate yourself, inform yourself on these issues. I’ll give you my recommendation, my reasoning. But I think you’re smart.
I think you can figure out what you want to do. But I would encourage people to not be influenced voters. If you don’t understand, if you’re not up to speed on all these issues, then you don’t vote.
You have a responsibility to know what you’re voting on. And this whole rank choice voting thing, let me just take a quick look at this. And because it is absolutely crazy about the amount of money that’s going into this.
Let me see if I can find that for you. I think the question is 131. And this is such a huge no.
But let’s see, let me get to it. Here we go. Okay, one more time.
Because I had just looked at the money last week on this, on Proposition 131. This is the whole Kent theory thing. Josh Penry is running part of the campaign on that.
Josh Penry is Republican operative. But anyway, this is a very bad idea. And then you’ve got Dick Wadhams over here, who is in favor of it as well.
It’s, first of all, with ranked choice voting, your top voter, vote getter, may not win. So the person that most of the people voted for may not be the winner. Do you not see a problem with that?
But then the next thing is it’s very complicated. It’s very convoluted. A computer algorithm will determine who the winner is.
Very difficult to audit that. And I think the money tells you everything. these people don’t really care so much about the money on it.
But in fact, let’s see. Here we go. I had the money on it.
Campaign finance. Here we go. 8.3 million has been put into this already to try to get the people of Colorado to vote for this.
Opposing it is 35,000. What will happen if rank choice voting is passed here in Colorado, is that our elections will always be controlled by the biggest pockets, the people with the most money. And that is not the way it is supposed to be in our constitutional republic.
And all you have to do is take a look at the money. And so 8 million, United America has put in 4.6 million, Kent Theory, 1.4 million. Ben Walton, interesting, a million dollars.
Wilmot Reed Hastings, don’t know that guy, a million. And says, veterans for all voters, interesting. And then again, over on the other side, there’s only 35,000.
So this is going to have to be a grassroots campaign to defeat this. This is a David and Goliath thing, but it is not good for the people of Colorado. And that is Proposition 131.
And tomorrow, Candice Stutzreim will be on to talk more about that. So you will not want to miss that. So several things, I want to say congratulations to Grand Lake US Constitution Week for an amazing event.
Dr. Ron Paul was the presenter, 89 years young. He took questions, he spoke, took questions for an hour and a half, pictures with people, people were lined up. It was a really special event.
And we get to do everything that we do. Oh, I do have to say thank you to my team of Colorado Union of Taxpayers Board Members, Steve Dorman, Greg Golianski, Russ Haas, Bill Hamill, Carl Honeger, Rob Knuth, John Nelson, Joseph O’Loughlin, Wendy Warner, Marty Nielsen, Ramey Johnson and Mary Jansen. All volunteers watching out for you, the taxpayer, which that is all of us.
Say thank you to these folks. Colorado Union of Taxpayers has been in business as a nonprofit since 1976. Amazing group of people.
Mark O’Vill, president of Grand Lake US Constitution Week, gave a great shout out from the podium at Grand Lake US Constitution Week for this amazing group of people. And with all this happens, because we are an independent voice, we’re independent because we have amazing sponsors, and I get to work with really amazing people. The Roger Mangan Insurance Team is State Farm Agency.
They strive for excellence, and Roger’s been in business for 47 years, helping his clients and providing for his family and giving back to the community. And I am so pleased that I have my home in auto with the Roger Mangan State Farm Insurance Team. But Roger, you’re in studio here, and I have a question regarding the state of insurance in Colorado.
What should people know?
Well, there’s a lot going on for sure. If you’ve ever flown an airplane and you’ve been in a tailspin, you know you’re out of control, but you can come out of that tailspin with some good training. And what’s going on in Colorado is they passed a lot of laws, for example, most recently that impact insurance.
And we know many of the companies that are pulling out of Colorado because of the exposure they have to wildfires and hailstorms. So, insurance companies have to manage their exposure and try to manage inflation. They can only manage inflation through rate increases.
They can’t stop what drives insurance rates. You know, for example, body shop, hourly rates, claims relative to loss of life. There’s just a lot going on.
For example, what’s happened in Colorado recently, the legislature has passed some new laws. Some are very good. Some are somewhat challenging for insurance companies.
One of the things you may not know out there is driving and using cell phones has been illegal for those under 18 years of age. When effective January 1st of 2025, it will now be illegal for all people to use a cell phone. It’ll be illegal for them to use their cell phone.
Exceptions would be if you have an earpiece or an integrated car cell phone, you’d be okay. But entering data, sending texts, or browsing the Internet is illegal. fines start at about $75.
It’s going to be interesting trying to enforce that law. We shall see. Another law that impacts those of you who live in an association, and many of us do, it doesn’t just mean condos, it means homeowners associations.
Those associations will no longer be able to dictate to unit owners rules that are contrary to installing materials that are fire resistant or less flammable. A good example would be wooden fences. Actually, they assist tremendously in spreading fires to other homes.
So if you want to put up some fence that isn’t wood, contrary to the bylaws, those bylaws are now being overridden by this legislation, allowing you to put fences up that are fire retardant. So on and on and on, there’s also a transfer of risk by HOAs, your master policy, the people who mow your lawns and take care of the fool, etc. The HOA, the unit owners, are now incurring a lot of the risk by master policies being shifted from all in to bare walls.
If you’re in an association, you might want to check with your insurance carrier as to what kind of a master policy you have. And by the way, you’re going to be notified by law of these changes. Don’t take them slightly.
They’re significant. I just had to ensure that came in under the situation. We had to increase their coverage on their HO6.
It cost them about $300 a year to upgrade their building coverage, which is coverage A in most policies, from $120 to $330.
That’s a lot.
Yeah. A lot of increase for not really a lot of premiums. So their total premium now runs about $500 a year, where it used to be $250 a year.
Okay. Well, it is important when you mention about managing risk, people need to understand their insurance coverage. I’d highly recommend that people reach out to you to set up a complimentary appointment.
I sat down with Stacey, who’s there at your office. She did a great job and doesn’t cost anything for the appointment. I do know that it depends on individuals.
Every individual is different, but another one of my colleagues switched her insurance coverage to you, and you were able to save her about $1,000 a year, she said. So thank you. So how can people reach you?
Well, you can call us at the number 303-795-8855.
Yeah, we’d love to talk to you and give you some coaching on maybe what you have, and maybe it’s better than what we can offer, but we’ll help you make that decision.
I love that. And again, that’s the Roger Mangan State Farm Insurance Team 303-795-8855. Like a good neighbor, the Roger Mangan Insurance Team is there.

We want our children to learn how to read and write and do arithmetic and think critically. And Dawn Holmberg reached out to me. She is with George Muller Academy in Loveland.
And she wanted to share some of the things that are happening there. And just some really great results on that. So Dawn, welcome to the show.
Hey, good morning Kim. Thank you for having me on. Appreciate it.
And thank you for all that you do.
Well, the education of our children, Dawn, is so important. And I think that when people go to the ballot box and they’re asked to pay more in taxes, at the bottom line is, is I think people want our kids to learn how to read and write and know history and civics and have the tools to be a success in life. And so tell us what’s happening at George Muller Academy.
Give us some history.
Yeah, absolutely, Kim. So it’s actually in the state of Colorado, things are really bad in the public school system. So despite that increase of funding, that money trying to go towards anti-bullying and teaching kids to read, illiteracy has gone up.
There’s over 60 percent middle school kids that don’t know how to read, they don’t meet the state standards, and bullying has gone up as well. So despite the best efforts of the lawmakers of trying to cite these things, it’s just not working in the public school system. So George Muller Academy has been around for, this is our sixth year working.
We started as a reach out towards homeschool families. And what we wanted to do is provide a good quality education, strong academics, and then proper social experiences for the families in this area. And it’s been going really well.
We’ve got great feedback. We have lots of teachers coming out of the public school system and joining us. They’re just excited to be able to teach again, and not have to push a lot of the social agenda that’s going on in the public schools.
Mostly, particularly in math. We’ve got a lot of math teachers that have come to us saying, how good it is to actually teach that two plus two equals four, and not the conceptual stuff that they’re trying to push in the public school system where a lot of it is about feelings and not about facts. So it’s been exciting.
We were inspired by the story of George Muller, who lived in 1830s over in England. But he was able to start schools and start taking in orphans who, at that time, were not eligible for any kind of education. So he took them in off the streets and supported them and educated them.
By the end of his life, he had taught and supported over 100,000, or sorry, 10,000 orphans and started around 100 schools. And he did this through faith. I mean, he was a minister at first and people donated to him, and he was able to support this and build these orphanages.
So it’s quite an inspiring story. And so we kind of feel that, you know, good quality education shouldn’t just be for those who can afford the private schools or can afford the time off to, you know, focus on homeschooling. So we wanted to be able to provide that to any family that wanted that.
So our goal really is to not turning anyone away due to finances. So we have quite a few donors that and volunteers that are working at the school. We just want to provide a safe atmosphere for these kids to learn and to grow academically and as that, you know, doesn’t fight against the parents as well.
Okay, so, Dawn, this is really interesting. So first of all, George Muller Academy is in Loveland, correct?
Correct. yes.
Okay. And what grades do you teach there?
So we do K through high school, and right now we’re only two days a week. That’s what we have been, but it’s kind of exciting. Next year, we are planning on doing more of a full-time school for possibly five days a week.
And we’re also going to be expanding into birth ed. So we’re opening up something out there as well.
Okay. So there is a lot of wasted time in a public school day. And so is two days a week at George Muller equivalent to X amount of days at a typical public school?
Yeah.
So what we do, we have on Mondays and wednesdays, we do a typical school day around 8 to 2.30. And we do provide at-home work, especially for the older kids. The younger kids don’t need it as much, but it’s just that repetition that helps them to not lose that.
The learning that they have accomplished at school while they’re at home or on those days off. So we do provide direction for the families at home to be keeping this up. But it’s great.
It actually does work out really well. Unfortunately, there are some families that they don’t have the parents at home or the time on those days off to be there for their kids. And so that’s why we want to also do the four day a week program.
Now, is it public school? So is it a public charter school, private school, or what is it?
We are private at this time, yeah. We actually don’t want to become public or charter because there’s a lot more regulations that go into that. So we like having our say and letting the parents have their say as well.
Parental rights are so important and boy, they have been under attack here in Colorado. I really think that many times we were at the forefront of many of these things that are occurring. So as a private school, talk to me about how you choose curriculum, because aren’t there mandates that are coming down from the state?
So how do you address that?
There are mandates, but as a private school, there are certain things that we are allowed the freedom to do because we’re not publicly funded. So right now, the regulations are pretty lenient for homeschoolers, which is where we fall under because we’re still homeschoolers. They’re just coming to us for support in classes and that kind of thing.
So right now, we’re required to teach the Constitution, which ironically is something that students are very illiterate about. So even though that’s a requirement in the state of Colorado, we find that there’s not a lot of evidence that shows it’s being taught in an effective way. So we do teach civics, we do teach the Constitution.
And there’s so many credits in certain areas that you have to cover. But it’s pretty, we have the freedom to meet those requirements, how we feel we can justify meeting those. So there’s a lot of flexibility with homeschooling in the private school sector.
Okay. So this is a blend. Is this correct to say that George Muller Academy would be a blend between homeschooling and private school?
yes. Yeah, that’s correct.
Okay. How many students at George Muller Academy in Loveland?
So we currently serve 35 students. We have had, oh gosh, many students pass through our school going on to, trying to get into other private schools that are more full-time. So we’ve served quite a few families.
But currently, right now, we have 35 students in K through 12th grade. And the nice thing about this is that the small class sizes actually helps the kids learn and helps the teachers to have a better knowledge of where each child is at, what their strengths are, what their weaknesses are, and how to help them. It’s so hard to do that for most teachers.
There are 30 plus students in every classroom in the typical school these days.
Okay. And so K through 12, I know there are those that, well, remember the stories about the old one and two room school houses, where all the students from all these different grades, they helped each other. And as I look back, for example, my grandmother had an 8th grade education.
But if you go and do a quick web search for Saline County, Kansas, the questions on their 8th grade exam, most of us cannot answer those questions. Many, I think, PhDs probably couldn’t answer those questions. And so this kind of a misnomer of that old 8th grade education, my father grew up and as a child was in one of the either one or two room school house and had a high school education, but he would quote shakespeare to me, and he understood civics.
He understood, I remember him sitting down and explaining inflation to me, all those things. And so it’s a bit of a misnomer of in the old days, people had an 8th grade education from those schools where you had all the students blended together.
yes, it’s very different from our 8th grade education these days. That’s for sure. But you know, these kids, especially in the younger years, they love information.
They just eat it up and they soak it in. So whatever they’re exposed to, they’re going to absorb. And so if you have them around, the older kids, while they’re learning the older things, they might not get everything, but they’re gleaning information there.
And then that helps them, it makes it easier to put that together when they get older and they do learn much quicker if they’re exposed to that stuff early on. So yeah, it’s exciting. A lot of the homeschool families that are teaching multiple different ages at the same time, they find that out is that the younger kids, a lot of times will pick it up faster than the older kids.
They might not have the understanding, but they’ve got the ability to memorize and to regurgitate that information.
How can people get more information? And would there be, well, I’ll ask this question when we come back. Just how can people get more information about George Muller Academy?
Yeah, absolutely. So you can go to our website, which is the latinschoolco.org, the latinschoolco.org, or you can send us an email, georgemulleracademyatproton.me, georgemulleracademyatproton.me, and our website has a lot of our information about the current year at Loveland, and then also what our plans are for the more full-time options next year.

And on the line with me is Dawn Holmberg. She is with George Muller Academy in Loveland. Sounds like you’re doing amazing work there.
And you’re a bit of a blend between a public school and homeschooling, excuse me, a private school and homeschooling. Is there is there any way somebody that’s in public schools, could there be a blend there or not?
You mean between public school and homeschool?
Public school and George Muller.
Oh, yeah. Well, so right now, as the law stands in Colorado, you are allowed to take certain classes at the public school. Like, they can’t turn you away.
So homeschoolers are allowed to gather curriculum from the public school to participate some extracurricular activities and possibly even take certain classes at the public school. So that’s already an option right now to kind of have a blend. But I find that a lot of students prefer not to do that.
But also, there’s some public funded, publicly funded programs specifically for homeschoolers, like Options or Leap, where they have a one day a week public school teachers will come and, you know, set up classes for homeschoolers. So there is that as well. But we have, you know, our goal is to get the families that feel like they’re stuck in a toxic situation or that their kids are, to give them an option to be able to come out of that.
So we’ve, I mean, we’ve had parents come to us saying, like, our kids are being bullied at school and it’s gotten so bad, they just don’t want to go back or they’re talking about that they hate their life. Like we need a better environment for them. We’ve even had parents come to us and say, you know, our first grader doesn’t comes home and says that she doesn’t want to be white anymore.
So like the stuff that they’re getting at the school just isn’t, a lot of the families don’t agree with that and it’s affecting the kids in a pretty negative way. So we want to be able to give them that option that they can, they don’t have to stay there. They can pull their kids out and we can help with provide that academic education for them so that, you know, their kid isn’t behind and they’re also in a safe and nurturing environment.
Well, that is so important. And then lastly, I did not realize that cursive was not being taught in school actually for many, many years and had heard from one of our listeners, because we’ve talked about it before, just the kind of the brain development in writing the letters and how they’re all connected. So tell me about George Muller Academy and cursive writing.
Yeah. So we start, typically start cursive in the first grade. And the kids, the kids actually love it.
It’s most of them actually enjoy, you know, having a little bit of freedom with their writing with that. And we don’t, we don’t focus a lot on form at that age. We just have them explore it.
And then, you know, all throughout the rest of the years, we’re trying to get them to, you know, especially be able to read it because that’s probably the most important, even if they don’t ever really want to write it. But being able to read that so they’re not illiterate when it comes to cursive letters, because they’re used all over the place, especially with artistic, in artistic ways. So that is something that we do introduce at a fairly young age, but then also encourage throughout, throughout the schooling.
There’s this funny meme. Go ahead. Go ahead.
There’s this funny meme that I saw recently where this gentleman says that he, his kids really wanted to do an escape room. So he put him, he locked him in a room. And with an analog phone, and he wrote instructions in cursive of how to get out.
And they were in there for like four hours.
So it’s not funny.
I’ve never asked this question. And so again, I’m asking all these subjective questions today, it seems like on the show. But why, why, why, why did the education system ever decide to not teach, Kurtz of and when did this happen?
That is a great question. I really don’t know. I think, I think it just, you know, there’s been a lot of reducing the difficulties in schools.
The English grammar isn’t taught that much anymore. And that’s something that we find is very important with how to structure sentence or how to speak properly, or being able to read better and comprehend what is being said. But there’s been a lot of things that have been dropped for other special interest things, so more social instruction, especially with regards to the environment and recycling.
And they’re filling their time with other things that they’re taking away from a lot of the, just the typical reading, writing and arithmetic, right? There’s just not enough time to fill all of that stuff. Yeah, it’s definitely hurting in academics.
They’re pulling time away from that. Well, so someone deemed that it wasn’t as important as something else.
Yeah, we wonder who those people were exactly. Okay, so Dawn Holmberg, what’s the final thought that you want to leave with our listeners? It sounds like a really creative option.
George Muller Academy and Loveland, you said you’re expanding to Berthed. So what’s the final thought you’d like to leave with our listeners?
Yeah, my final thought is that public school is not the only option. There’s so many options out there. There’s a lot of school choice that’s going on, which is just amazing.
I think that there’s so many ways to find things that are going to work and that it doesn’t need to break your bank account either. So we’ve got, there’s options for people that want to help, that help with the academics and help with the education, but maybe not have kids on their own. You can donate to us or to other organizations like us that are trying to help kids be put in a better academic and safe environment.
So there’s just so much out there. It’s an exciting time. There’s lots of new micro schools and other options opening up.
So we’re trying to solve this education problem, and we’ve come to find out that the public school is not the best way right now. So yeah, there’s lots of ways out there. So it’s, if you just look it up, and it’s kind of fun that, and we do, we do need the support of other people in the community as well.
So if there’s, you know, we love having volunteers or having people to donate for books or for, you know, facility rental and those kinds of things. So that helps get kids in a safer environment. So that’s good.
Dawn, Dawn Holmberg, thank you for reaching out to me and thank you for sharing the amazing story of George Muller Academy. I greatly appreciate it.

And, Cain, thank you for being available to, we really didn’t get to anything we wanted to talk about, and hopefully we will, but two things on cursive. You had responded back, I want your comments on it, but from another one of our listeners, she said, sit down and write something out in cursive.
Think about all the different mental skills that are involved in doing that. I think if we did a little research, it would be very interesting to see. The goal of the left is to have a very stupid, ignorant society.
And there’s something about cursive that is obviously very beneficial for us, to learn that they do not want that taught any longer. It’s amazing. So a linguist would probably know the answer to the questions that I asked.
And why on earth would school not teach grammar outside the fact that school day is full of teaching nonsense instead of reading, writing, and arithmetic? She’s probably singing your song, Cain.
yes, 100%. And why would we continue to put our children into these indoctrination centers? They show us every single day what their intentions are with our kids.
And there are many, many options. I heard you talking to Dawn. There are so many options available to parents today that you don’t have to put your children in these indoctrination centers.
And what I text you is that if children can’t write or read cursive, they can’t look at our founding documents. Because they were reading cursive. They will never be able to go back to the original documents and read it and then say what you have on the computer, what you have in AI is not correct.
The original documents say this, and they’ll never be able to understand it. It will be a foreign language to them. And they are doing this on purpose.
So dumbing kids down, indoctrinating them on a whole bunch of different things. But Cain, I wanted to talk with you about freedom of speech. Your freedom of speech is being abridged and tell us about that.
Okay, so a couple of things. It’s a freedom of speech in general is under attack. And I’ll give you a short example just for Caucasian people.
I’m a Negro. I challenge you to see me in the Walmart or Target and go, hey, what’s up my Negro? They’ll try to cancel you.
They’ll fire you. They’ll try to get you arrested. You have a First Amendment right to say whichever word you ever want to say.
Now, what they’ve done is they demonize the word. Now, you self-censor and white people have been self-censoring for decades. White people buy 85 to 90 percent of all rap music.
I don’t listen to rap. It’s vulgar and they use what they call the n-word over and over again.
Denzil Washington said in Training Day, he said, My Negro. And comedians use the word N-I-G-G-A all the time. So if it’s so bad, why are white people allowed to participate in that environment?
And so I’m simply saying, you have the right to say whatever word. When you don’t exercise that right, they take more and take more. And now you have to say, a woman is a man and a man is a woman.
And they’re forcing you down this path when you don’t stand up for really simple things.
Well, and I just have a quick question. And I’d ask Reggie this as well. Isn’t it racist that if your color of your skin is a certain pigmentation, that you can say a word that the people with that certain pigmentation would then say is an insult if somebody white would say it.
And I’m like, how is it that you can be black and say this word, but if you’re white, it’s not okay. I’ve never been able to match that up.
Oh, my God. Kim, you say this every day. Every morning you say this.
It can’t be equal rights if there are special rights. And I simply say you are 100 percent correct. And if I don’t stand up to protect the equal rights of everyone, we will all be run over and taken over.
So I support, my friends refer to me as a Negro. I don’t let them call me black, my white friends. I don’t.
At work, I don’t let them call me black. They go, I’m going to get fired. I’m going to get in trouble.
I go, what’s going to happen is you’re going to sue them and I’m going to sue them. And I’ll stand right there with you and tell the country, the company that you’re violating his First Amendment rights. And how is that going to look when we go in the court together?
And I tell them the racist, bigoted approach that this company has taken towards his white man. They’ll set their pie home, they’ll leave you alone. But if we don’t, the government’s not coming to rescue us from this.
The government is against us. They’re not stepping up. In fact, if you look at history, it’s been just the average citizen that has stepped forward and says, no, no, no, we’re going to force you to honor your laws.
We’re going to make you do it. They will step forward and go, oh, we’re going to protect white people from the racist, bigoted DEI or the CRT that they’re pushing.
They won’t.
It’s part of their agenda.
Well, so Cain, you have been attending school board meetings, city council meetings, speaking out, and you are now barred from speaking out at a school board meeting, right?
So what they’ve done is they’ve changed the policy, their public comment policy. We’re talking about D6 and Greeley, Michael Matthews, I call him Pastor Porn, Natalie Mash, I call her mashed potatoes. these people, they’re Marxists, they’re communists.
And so what they’ve done, we were challenging books here in Northern Colorado and over the last two years. And so they started changing their policies to prevent myself and people like me from speaking, which is a violation of my freedom of speech, to speak in a public forum, to inform the public. This is what your school’s, your school district is doing to you.
They’re criminals. I’m not mad. I’m not mad at them for doing it.
That’s what criminals do. That’s their job. Their job is to hide things from the public.
Their job is to hide their dirty deeds. They’re criminals. They never speak the truth.
They always lie.
They always misdirect. And so I decided to speak at the city council up there in Greeley and address the school board. And these people are criminals.
They’re violating federal law when it comes to pornography, being in schools and providing them to children. And one day, they’re going to be held economy. How do you know that, Cain?
Because Cain is never stopping until these people pay for what they’ve done to our children, whether it’s criminally or civilly. Cain is, hear me out, pastor porn, Cain is never, ever stopping until these children get recourse for what you’ve done to them.
So, on Task Force Freedom noco.com, you have actually, you published these different things that are in our kids’ school. That, and my father said to me, Cain, that we need to be careful about what we listen to, what we look at, what we read. And so, the idea that there’s these images in some of these books, and it’s starting very, very young, that there’s these images that are in these books, they’re planting this seed, I feel, that would put these children in a position to be taken advantage of by predators.
And that is what is happening, yes?
Yeah, 100% that’s happening. As a police officer, I had to deal with prostitutes, arresting, chasing, whatever. And most of them were exposed to sexual content or sexual experiences early on in life, like 6, 7, 8, 9.
By the time they were 12, they were very comfortable with having these sexual experiences. Children are not supposed to be exposed to this kind of thing. It plants these seeds.
Erin Lee sent me a text about House Bill 19-1192. Polis signed this. Your first grader is going to learn about lesbians, gays, bi’s, transgenders, and queers.
In the first grade, they have to teach it. It’s required teaching in history and civics. House Bill 19-1192, go looking up.
For that one thing alone, I would never let my kid play on the playground of that school ever. That’s going to destroy these children.
these are babies.
They don’t even know first graders. They have really no idea what gender is, what sex is, boys or girls. They’re just playing.
And we have these Democrats planting these seeds in these babies. It’s horri- it’s horrific.
And I do get a little frustrated that more people are not standing up going, no way, no way. And one day, let me say this, one day, they’re going to look back and they’re going to go, oh my God, that chocolate guy was telling the truth. Why didn’t I listen to him?
Because now my baby is mentally ill.
Yeah. Okay, Cain, we’ve got two minutes left. So what point do you want to make?
And then we’ll get you on again next month.
Okay, I will. I would say this. Never forget what these commie dims have done to us.
Never forget it. Never forget what the government schools, the school boards, what they’re doing to our children. these people will run for office.
Again, they will try to move up that ladder. We should show up and go, I remember what you did to my kid. This is what’s happening to my child today.
In the future, you will have recourse. You will be able to seek recourse for the harm that they’ve caused to your kids. And lastly, you vote.
You vote these people out of office. Here in Colorado, you can go grab 10 ballots from friends who can’t make it to the ballot office, to the poll. Up to 10.
Grab your 10 and drop them in. Take them. You have to tell people to vote.
these are not Democrats. They’re not. They’re communists.
They’re sneaky. They want to destroy the white culture, the American culture, as what I call it. They consider it the white culture.
They want to destroy it. And then they have all power and all control.
And what that culture is, Cain, is that in its, it’s in our Declaration of Independence, that all men are created equal with these inalienable rights from God of life, liberty, and pursuit of happiness. And that’s not white. That’s not black.
That is, Calvin Coolidge said, if all men are created equal, then that is final. And that is what we aspire to. But we must protect our children.
We must understand what’s going on. And you have been at the forefront. And I thank you, my friend.
yes, ma’am. Thank you so much, Kim.
And again, that is taskforcefreedomnoco.com.
And our quote for the end of the show is from Sir Harry Lauder. He said this, keep right on to the end of the road, keep right on to the end. Though the way be long, let your heart be strong.
Keep right on round the bend. So today be grateful, read great books, think good thoughts, listen to beautiful music, communicate and listen well, if 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.
