Lauren Boebert (R-CO) joins Dan to discuss the latest foreign aid packages passed by the House with a minority of majority Republican support for Ukraine funding, along with allocations for Israel in its war against Hamas and Taiwan in the Indo-Pacific.

Twelve (angry?) jurors have been seated in the politically-motivated Manhattan criminal case brought against Donald J. Trump by district attorney Alvin Bragg.

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R, CO-3) joins Dan to discuss the latest madness in Washington, D.C. where Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) faces a potential mutiny similar to what led to Kevin McCarthy's demise in the role.

Bill Maher draws stunned silence from his own audience when he concedes abortion is murder, but he's okay with it because the world is overpopulated. Dan views it as an inside look to the Left's true feelings on the issue - including Governor Jared Polis, Senators John Hickenlooper and Michael Bennet, and virtually all other elected Democrats.At a rally in Pennsylvania, Donald Trump illicits chants of 'Genocide Joe' in derisive reference to President Biden. The former President flatly retorts 'they're not wrong.' What does this mean for Biden and his re-election efforts when it comes to the war in Gaza?
Predictably, President Biden's lukewarm position on Israel essentially gave Iran the green light for their missile attacks into the Jewish state over the weekend.More ominous history is made by banana republic Democrats, as former President Donald Trump becomes the first commander-in-chief to face criminal charges after leaving office.

Dan is astounded by the 'analysis' of CNN's Ashley Allison, stating O.J. Simpson was a symbol for the black community, especially since the two people he allegedly killed were white.Ryan then asks if reaction to the 'not guilty' verdict would have been different if Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman were black, and Dan wonders if there would have been much in terms of media coverage at all under those circumstances. Also, fun topic on a Friday - which song would you want played at your funeral? Dan, Ryan, and Kelly all provide answers for their own end of life plans.
Donald Trump is heading to court in Manhattan on Monday, as Alvin Bragg looks to put a political pelt on the wall in campaign financing felony charges against the former President pertaining to his non-disclosure agreement with adult film star Stormy Daniels. Dan answers Ryan's questions about what key decisions the Trump legal team must make in jury selection to increase the chances of a positive outcome, which includes a hung jury.
O.J. Simpson was just one in a cast of many unforgettable characters from 'The Trial of the Century' that ended in his acquittal.Kato Kaelin, Judge Lance Ito, Robert Shapiro, Barry Scheck, F. Lee Bailey, Robert Kardashian, Johnnie Cochran, Christopher Darden, LAPD detective Mark Fuhrman, and Marcia Clark made for a stranger-than-fiction television courtroom drama. And Dan was right in the middle of it, the entire way.Dan recounts his accurate early-on prediction of Simpson's 'not guilty' verdict and where it all went wrong for the LAPD and the prosecution in the case.
O.J. Simpson (1947-2024) died of cancer on Thursday, at the age of 76. His legacy is one of the most surreal, spectacular, and salacious in American history.Dan was front and center covering 'The Trial of the Century' back in 1995 and remembers all of the courtroom drama that led to a stunning 'not guilty' verdict from a Los Angeles jury. He discusses the legal and media aspects of the trial for the full two hours today.
Sensing a loss in November and seeing his numbers on the issue cratering, President Biden may finally reverse course and take executive action on the border. Will it be enough to save his re-election effort?Dan cites a study showing children experiencing gender dysphoria overwhelmingly grow out of their confusion as gender-conforming adults.
President Biden continues his callous, calculated, cynical de facto support for Hamas, calling an accidental IDF strike on a food convoy 'outrageous' and pushing for a ceasefire in Gaza without conditions - other than Israel must allow all aid to be transported in to civilians, which of course will end up helping resupply Hamas during wartime.Also, Jerry Sonnenberg joins Dan to offer his thoughts on a chaotic Colorado GOP assembly in Pueblo, and the aftermath of party chair Dave Williams choosing to endorse one of his opponents in the 4th Congressional race - Rep. Lauren Boebert.SONNENBERG FOR CONGRESS
Dan fields a deluge of texts and calls responding to Colorado's new 3-year trial run on a 'lane filtering' law for motorcycles, which would ostensibly allow riders to travel between lanes on the highway and other vehicles when stopped in traffic. But what will enforcement of this law look like? And will it end up basically opening the door to 'lane splitting,' with vehicles in motion. like the law in California allows?
Dan explains why he disagrees with Mike Pence and some other conservatives who feel Donald Trump should have stayed the course on a 15-week federal abortion ban, and why Trump was right to leave it as a state issue legally.
