Biden refuses to own his part in heated political rhetoric; Teamsters president at RNC brilliant politically

In another weak, feeble, and disjointed television interview - this time with NBC's Lester Holt - President Joe Biden appears small by refusing to back down from (or even admit) using incendiary political rhetoric when referring to Donald Trump, after the assassination attempt against the former President on Saturday in Pennsylvania. Also, Trump turns a brilliant political move by inviting Teamsters president Sean O'Brien to speak at the Republican National Convention.

Donald Trump appears to be a changed man during RNC entrance, will he show a message shift on Thursday?

Donald Trump made a triumphant entrance on Monday night at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, just over 50 hours after an assassination attempt failed by a matter of mere centimeters. Has this near-death experience changed the man? Dan and Ryan believe it might have, and we will likely see the resulting outcome of the entire ordeal on Thursday night. Rep. Ty Winter (R-47) joins Dan to discuss the reaction, fallout, and ghoulish responses from the Left after Saturday's assassination...

Trump inspires supporters to 'Fight' with fist raised and blood on his ear after assassination attempt

Strength. Resilience. Determination. Donald Trump showed remarkable resolve under the most dire of circumstances as a would-be assassin's bullet graced the top of his right ear and sent him down to his knees - only to arise with his fist raised defiantly, shouting 'Fight!' to the assembled rally-goers in Butler, Pennsylvania. This iconic image will live on in American history, and it may have sealed an election victory for Trump in 2024.

President Joe Biden's 'big boy press conference' - Part I

Over an hour late, President Biden finally takes the podium for his 'big boy press conference' following the NATO summit where he misidentified Volodomyr Zelenskyy as Vladimir Putin. Dan and Ryan react in real time, as a pre-approved list of reporters is called upon to start things off.

Waiting for Biden; Joe is over an hour late for his 'big boy press conference'

President Biden's political future hangs in the balance, as he prepares for a 'make or break' press conference following Thursday's NATO summit. But things get off to a rough start when he erroneously introduces Ukrainian President Volodomyr Zelenskyy as Russian President Vladimir Putin. Dan analyzes the fallout of yet another monstrous gaffe, and whether Joe's performance at his so-called 'big boy press conference' can save his candidacy as the Democrat nominee in 2024.

Sen. Michael Bennet (D-CO) comes out from under his desk to tell CNN Biden can't beat Trump in November

In a stunning plot twist, the normally placid Sen. Michael Bennet (D-CO) is outed by CNN as saying Biden can't defeat Trump in a private meeting. He then comes clean to Kaitlan Collins on the network to admit his honest thoughts about the current President's chances against the former President. Despite these warning signs, Ryan is dug in as believing Biden will weather the storm - much to the incredulous amusement of Dan.

Dems attempt to show united front in support of Biden, but Dan isn't buying it for a second

Democrats on Capitol Hill emerge from private meetings singing out of the same hymnal on Joe Biden as their candidate for President in 2024, but Rep. Steve Cohen (D-TN) claims they're not in the same book - let alone on the same page - when it comes to the incumbent commander-in-chief staying in the race. Dan offers his thoughts on this theater and insists Joe is not long for the campaign.

Biden campaign in full meltdown mode, as White House press conference goes off the rails in Parkinson's doc cover-up

Dan explains the painful 11 days President Biden has had while trying to pick up the pieces of his campaign following his horrific debate performance, and why his handlers and staff are having a harder and harder time explaining things away - like whether a specialist visited the President several times to check on possible symptoms of Parkinson's Disease. It's only a matter of time before Joe drops out of the race, Dan's just counting the days.

Media, prominent Dems start to turn on Biden, what will be the breaking point to force him out

Jake Tapper, who moderated last Thursday's Presidential debate for CNN, calls out Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) - one of Joe Biden's closest advisers and friends in Congress - for trying to chalk up the President's poor debate performance as 'one bad night.' Other Dems seem to be circling like vultures, rather than circling the wagons. What will be the final straw that forces Biden out of the 2024 race?

Why Hunter runs the White House now; Whether Trump saying he'll pardon Hunter will seal victory

On his final episode before celebrating his 30th wedding anniversary with Aimee, Dan has had an ephiphany on Hunter Biden - the President's son runs the White House now, because he's the one person who can bring Joe's house of cards tumbling down with corruption revelations. Dan explains why Joe must now do Hunter's bidding, and perhaps stay in the race as a result, or suffer the consequences of payback from his direlict son who served as the family bag man overseas. Ryan brings up one possible ...

Whitmer may be Dems best hope; Gabe Evans, CO-8 GOP nominee; Biden live on SCOTUS immunity ruling

A caller raises concerns about the potent, viable threat Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D-MI) poses as the potential Democrat nominee for President from the swing state of Michigan. Dan echoes these concerns and views her as formidable, whereas Michigan native Ryan believes scratching just past the surface reveals a very flawed candidate who's not ready for primetime and the bright lights of the biggest stage in American politics. Gabe Evans, Republican candidate for Colorado's 8th Congressional Distric...

Trump keeps on winning in the courts and in the polls, SCOTUS rules 6-3 in his favor on immunity

Dan sings the praises of the U.S. Supreme Court after their ruling on Presidential immunity in Trump v. United States in the wake of special counsel Jack Smith's politically motivated January 6th prosecution of the former President. In a 6-3 decision, three tiers of Presidential actions are delineated - core Constitutional powers, official actions of the office, and unofficial acts as a private citizen unrelated to the Oval Office. Dan evaluates what this means for Trump, and if it might help ha...

Is Dr. Jill Biden evil for putting Joe through this campaign in his diminshed state? Just a question of when he's replaced and by whom

Dan is asked by Ryan if First Lady Dr. Jill Biden is evil for knowingly putting her husband through a re-election campaign in an obviously diminished state of cognitive decline. It's only a matter of time, in Dan's view, before Joe Biden is replaced at the top of the ticket, the question is who replaces him and has the best chance to win in November.

Gameplanning Trump debate strategy vs. Biden; Surgeon General declares public health emergency on gun violence

Dan and Ryan continue to workshop theories on what strategy Donald Trump will implement in Thursday's debate with President Joe Biden, with particularly consideration for the moderators and rule parameters for the event. Surgeon General Vivek Murthy transparently attempts to circumvent the Second Amendment by declaring gun violence a 'health crisis' in America, comparing it to smoking. Will it work?
