Donald Trump is free-wheeling with the media once again, saying America doesn't need another 'dummy' as President with Kamala Harris. Was this a step too far? Rep. Brandi Bradley (R-39) joins Dan to share her child's experience in the classroom with a teacher who insisted Leonardo da Vinci identified as 'gender fluid' in the 15th and early 16th centuries. Is there proof of this? Even so, why is this a point of emphasis in school?

In a scene that rivaled 'The Red Wedding' episode of Game of Thrones, a special meeting of the Colorado Republican state central committee on Saturday ousted sitting chair Dave Williams, vice chair Hope Scheppelman, and secretary Anne Ferguson by an overwhelming majority vote of 161.66 to 12 (some members and proxies get fractional votes).The committee then selected Eli Bremer to assume the position of chair, with Brita Horn being named vice chair. Williams has contested the legitimacy of the meeting, but the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) recognized the leadership change in a letter addressed to the state party. Eli joins Dan to discuss the weekend's events.Dick Wadhams joins Dan with reaction to this weekend's upheaval in Colorado GOP leadership, with Dave Williams, Hope Scheppelman, and secretary Anna Ferguson all being voted out of office by the state central committee in a meeting Williams calls 'illegal' and 'fraudulent.' Where does it go from here?

Dan and Ryan discuss the impact of Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.'s endorsement of Donald Trump on Friday, as we join Trump's first campaign appearance wtih RFK, Jr. in Glendale, Arizona.

Dan marvels at how quickly the historic acceptance speech by Kamala Harris at the DNC has been wiped out of the news cycle, as RFK Jr. offers up his endorsement of Donald Trump following his exit from the 2024 race.Also, Dems are pot-committed to the idea that somehow Tim Walz is redfefining masculinity as AOC continues with this ridiculous notion that Trump and Vance are jealous of the weird governor.

Dana Bash, CNN says the DNC is trying to promote male figures who are not 'testosterone-laiden, gun-toting' guys who like Hulk Hogan. Instead, Democrats are targeting beta males who support women.Oprah Winfrey tells DNC attendees 'if you do not have autonomy over (your body),' and control if or when you have children, 'there is no American dream.' Dan eviscerates this twisted glorification of abortion as being essential to a woman's freedom.

Dan is back after a day of depositions, and has been pondering what the next move for Governor Jared Polis might be. He finds it interesting, out of nowhere, Sen. John Hickenlooper (D-CO) announces that he is definitely running for re-election in 2026. Could this be a pre-emptive strike against a potential challenge from Polis after he leaves office as governor?Also, going back to Tuesday night, did Michelle Obama unintentionally (or intentionally?) insult Vice-President Kamala Harris by taking a jab at Donald Trump over the Presidency possibly being 'one of those black jobs' in a reference to comments he made at the National Association of Black Journalists convention a few weeks ago.

Brita Horn brings her experience as a fire chief to the five-alarm fire that is the Colorado Republican Party, as she seeks to replace the polarizing and controversial Dave Williams as state chair.Also, Gov. Jared Polis (D-CO) speaks at Day 3 of the Democratic National Convention, and both his former opponent (Heidi) and Ryan have thoughts on his attitudes toward - and treatment of - women.

With Dan once again buried in depositions, Heidi Ganahl fills in along with Ryan to recap the second night of the 2024 Democratic National Convention, with KOA's Mandy Connell joining with a live report from Chicago.

The DNC added insult to injury for Joe Biden, putting his speech out of the prime time window on Monday night at 11:30pm in the Eastern Time Zone. Will this be the final straw that sends Team Biden into subterfuge and sabotage mode against Team Harris and Kamala's 2024 campaign?

It came to Dan in a dream, when he wasn't thinking about sinking a putt at Valhalla, that the Democrats may just be more fearful of a Kamala Harris victory in November than a loss. Did the events of Monday night at the DNC help him cement this vision?

At every turn, Kamala Harris has favored draconian government intervention into the private sector - including penalties for businesses who pay men more than women, and the confiscation of patents from drug companies if they don't 'play by the rules.' Communism is not just a pejorative term to describe her policies, it undergirds her policies and philosophy.For these, and many other reasons, Dan believes it may be Donald Trump who enjoys a bounce in the polls coming out of the Democratic National Convention.

Vice President Kamala Harris gives a one minute answer to a question about how she will pay for her economic policiies and programs, using 'in terms of' and 'return on investment' four times each during that 60 seconds.Heidi Ganahl is once again live in studio with Dan broadcasting remotely from the mountains, as Day 1 of the Democratic National Convention begins in Chicago.

Rep. Greg Lopez (CO-4) joins Dan to discuss the current state of the races for President and Lauren Boebert in the 4th District he currently represents against Democrat Trisha Calvarese, as well as the status of plans for House Republicans during Greg's limited time in Congress.

Catherine Rampell, economic reporter for the Washington Post, doesn't hold back on CNN in lambasting the Kamala Harris economic plan including price controls on groceries and housing. Dan and special guest co-host Heidi Ganahl discuss what an abject disaster and failure such socialistic policies will prove to be, if implemented.

A concerned parent of a first-grader at an elementary school in Parker was joined on a Zoom call by legions of other parents over a trans-identifying 6-year-old in the same classroom who is confusing other young students about sexuality and sexual identity. Is this gender-fluid child a victim of Munchausen by proxy?Kristi Burton-Brown joins Dan to discuss the special session of the General Assembly just announced by Governor Jared Polis. What is the reason behind it? Property taxes.

Vice President Kamala Harris continues riding the wave of her 'good vibes' and sugar high surge in the polls, but has to roll out some policy positions at SOME point. On Friday, the socialist concept of 'price controls' may prove to be part of that plan - which have been a failure historically, and may turn off independent voters.Also, Aurora city councilwoman Danielle Jurinsky joins with an update of Venezuelan gangs infiltrating apartment complexes in Aurora and setting up shop for criminal activities, putting law-abiding tenants and residents in danger.

Dan puts it to the audience in finding a name that will stick to Vice President Kamala Harris, for Donald Trump to use during the stretch run of the 2024 campaign. 

First, CNN anchors John Berman and Sara Sidner peppered Kamala Harris surrogates with questions about why she's avoiding interviews and press conferences on Day 24 of her campaign as the presumptive Democrat nominee for President. Wednesday, Jim Acosta joined the chorus in holding campaign spokesperson Michael Tyler's feet to the fire.Also, Dan relays the ABC News story on the mystery of a vanishing priest, who some are calling a 'guardian angel,' coming to the rescue of a young woman trapped in a car after an accident. 

Dan doesn't think Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) is out of the woods with his 'stolen valor' scandal stemming from his departure from the Army National Guard, and it may cost the presumptive nominee for Vice-President his spot on the ticket.Representatives Ryan Armagost (R-46) and Scott Bottoms (R-15) join Dan to discuss their plan to introduce Colorado's Second Amendment caucus on Tuesday.

Monday provided quite a contrast, motivating even CNN anchors to start calling out Vice President Harris for hiding away from the media as Donald Trump holds court for over two hours in a 'Space' on X with Elon Musk. How much longer can she hold out and ride the wave of her initial wave of enthusiasm and momentum from the Democrat base?
