In this episode of Rush to Reason, host Andy Pate takes the lead filling in for John Rush, alongside Luke Cash and Ashley Carter. As they reminisce about the eventful year of 2024, the hosts delve into the significant political shifts, particularly highlighting the concept of political dynasties from both sides of the aisle and the everlasting changes within media consumption and trust. The conversation expands on how political allegiances have morphed into a culture of dynasty loyalty, examining how this has shaped public perceptions and participation. Further dissecting the year, the discussion deviates into the myriad happenings that
00:20:00 Return from Break and Eli Bremers Introduction
SPEAKER 05 :
This is Rush to Reason.
SPEAKER 04 :
You are going to shut your damn yapper and listen for a change because I got you pegged, sweetheart. You want to take the easy way out because you’re scared. And you’re scared because if you try and fail, there’s only you to blame. Let me break this down for you. Life is scary. Get used to it. There are no magical fixes.
SPEAKER 05 :
With your host, John Rush.
SPEAKER 04 :
My advice to you is to do what your parents did. Get a job first. You haven’t made everybody equal. You’ve made them the same, and there’s a big difference.
SPEAKER 02 :
Let me tell you why you’re here. You’re here because you know something. What you know you can’t explain, but you feel it. You’ve felt it your entire life, that there’s something wrong with the world. You don’t know what it is, but it’s there. It is this feeling that has brought you to me.
SPEAKER 09 :
Are you crazy? Am I? Or am I so sane that you just blew your mind?
SPEAKER 07 :
It’s Rush to Reason with your host, John Rush. Presented by High Five Plumbing, Heating, Cooling, and Electric, where every call ends with a high five.
SPEAKER 10 :
Filling in is Andy Pate, party of choice. And I’m your host, Andy Pate, filling in for John Rush, along with Luke Cash and Ashley Carter.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yep.
SPEAKER 10 :
Cart-her. Cart-her. So Luke Cash, man.
SPEAKER 15 :
Gotta emphasize the last bit there.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yes. Once again, here at John’s show, Rushed Reason, we believe in two genders, and they are both right in front of me.
SPEAKER 03 :
It’s me and Ashley. You’re either a Luke or an Ashley. Yep. Those are the two genders. There’s no in-between. No in-between. You’re either me or you’re her.
SPEAKER 10 :
Were you never fully warm as a kid because you’re Luke? Yeah. Okay, I was wondering. All right. This is the last live show of 2024. So thank you for being here, both of you. And I want to ask a question here because 2024 was a huge year news-wise. And there was so much happening. Anybody could pull out five, 10 stories where these were the biggest ones to me. No, these were the biggest ones to me. And you could do that and disagree on all of them. I think everybody would mention the election, but outside of that, there were so many. So I want you guys to answer this question. Finish this sentence. And by the way, if anybody wants to call in, 303-477-5600, you can finish at 2. 2024 was the year when, or it could be the year of, right? But what was it about 2024 that totally stuck out? Ashley?
SPEAKER 15 :
I finished the sentence with 2024 was the year of political dynasties.
SPEAKER 10 :
Oh, go ahead and explain that.
SPEAKER 15 :
So I believe that in the year of 2024, we’ve kind of saw the fall of the Obama political dynasty because it was Obama to Biden, hopefully to Kamala. So it was trying to get a dynasty going there. It’s the rise of a Republican or Trump dynasty because the way that a lot of Republicans are seeing it, it’s going to go Trump as president. Then it’ll probably go to Vance as president. Then it’ll go to Reema Swamy as president.
SPEAKER 10 :
Then it’ll go to Gabbard as president. Let me jump in, too, because you know what? You make a point because people on both sides… had started to value people on their side insofar as they were loyal to the head of the dynasty. For so long, the Democrats, how loyal are you to Obama? How loyal are you to Obama? I mean, we had posters of him everywhere.
SPEAKER 06 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 10 :
And it was just, it was like a cult everywhere you looked. Now Trump comes along, and so many people within the Republican Party and on the right and in conservatism value people insofar as those people, what, align with Trump. Yeah. Well, I’m a really good conservative lifeline. It is now almost a bad thing. It’s pejorative to call yourself a Reagan Republican.
SPEAKER 15 :
Almost. Yeah. Yeah. It’s it started as, oh, we’re Republicans. And, you know, the biggest thing is, oh, well, you’re just a Trump cult. No, we’re not a Trump cult. We’re starting to become the Trump cult. It’s getting there and it’s becoming a problem.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yeah. And there are days when it is like that. Luke, real quick. Go ahead. What was 2024 the year of for you?
SPEAKER 03 :
2024 was the year of something interesting almost happening. There was a lot of… There was a lot of things that started, but not a lot that came of it. Right. You know, Russia invades Ukraine. World War III. Okay. And then it kind of petered out. And then, you know, Hamas in Israel. World War III. And then nothing happened. The Trump assassination. Civil War. And then nothing happened. Something interesting was almost always happening. Nothing interesting did happen.
SPEAKER 10 :
I like this. So basically for Luke, 2024 was the year of almost.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, it was the year of almost stuff happening, but nothing ever did.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yeah, and by the way, Trump gets elected and people were just like immediately. Now, granted, he’s not in office yet, but he really is.
SPEAKER 03 :
There’s going to be riots in the streets.
SPEAKER 10 :
There’s going to be riots in the streets. The world’s going to burn. Death everywhere.
SPEAKER 15 :
We’re going to be living in the handmaid’s tale.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yeah, exactly. I think you make a very good point.
SPEAKER 03 :
Nothing happens. 2024 was the year of almost. Almost. Not quite.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yeah. Okay. Jerry is on line one. Jerry, can you fill in this statement here? 2024 was the year when?
SPEAKER 14 :
You know, I really don’t know what to say about 2024, but I do have a question about 2025. Go! I rarely get to listen this time of day, so maybe you’ve dealt with this, but… I don’t know yet about the new vehicular storage of firearms law that goes into effect in a couple of days. And when I print out the act off the Internet and read it, it’s not super clearly worded to me. And the way I read it, somebody that’s got a long gun in a soft case, they also have to have a lock on the action or the trigger. So they need two locks, basically, a lock on the soft case and a lock on the gun itself. and uh so we don’t oh wait wait a minute so they gotta have a lock on both right i i’m guessing that the reasoning is that a soft case as opposed to a hard-sided case is super easy to cut open right so that’s my guess but you know it’s all it’s all garbage to me but um And then it’s not abundantly clear whether they’re counting a glove box or a center console, you know, a locked glove box, for example, as a hard-sided case that’ll meet the terms of the act.
SPEAKER 10 :
Oh, I would think they would count, I mean, a locked… Yeah, I would think if it’s locked, then they would count it. Go ahead, Luke.
SPEAKER 03 :
From what I understand, this new law that’s coming into effect in 2025 is sort of built upon the foundations of some of the rules Colorado already has. For example… In the state of Colorado, you’re already not allowed to have a long gun or a rifle, anything that’s not a handgun, essentially. You’re not allowed to have a mag in the firearm, not allowed to have a round in the chamber. It comes from old hunting laws, right? They don’t want you to pull over and fire off shots and do a nice eight-point buck on the side of the road. That’s where the law originated from.
SPEAKER 14 :
Right. Luke, I’m sorry, I don’t mean to be rude or interrupt, but I’m pretty clear on that one already. And like you’re saying, yeah, it does come from hunting laws, but the current statute specifically addresses a loaded firearm as defined by a round in the chamber. So you can’t have a loaded magazine when a long gun, as long as you don’t have a round in the chamber, you know, for that, like you’re saying, the hunting laws. Right. But this new Safe Firearms Storage Act that goes into effect in a couple of days, yeah, the three things that I’m not 100% clear about is whether my glove box or my center console, if they’re locked, if that counts.
SPEAKER 10 :
I would think it would, but Luke’s going to look into it.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, I think it will. Again, from what I’m reading here, like you said, they’re not super clear, which is very frustrating. But at the very least, my interpretation of what I have pulled up from the Colorado General Assembly is that it’s predominantly for firearm storage when the vehicle is unoccupied. So they want you to have it in a hard case when you’re not in the vehicle. Again, don’t fully quote me on this. They’re not really clear. With the purpose of the bill to prevent gun thefts from unoccupied vehicles, where if you leave your gun in the back seat and someone busts the window and pulls the gun.
SPEAKER 10 :
Well, that’s actually not bad.
SPEAKER 03 :
They don’t want that if the firearm is unattended in the vehicle to lock it in a hard case to prevent that firearm from easily being stolen and used.
SPEAKER 15 :
So, yeah, I would almost assume that a glove box or something like that would count.
SPEAKER 03 :
Right, I would assume a glove box counts. Again, my understanding of it.
SPEAKER 10 :
Jerry, I would think it does, too. Go ahead and really quick give us your other questions, and Luke’s going to be doing some reading, and if he can come up with some answers during the show, he will bring them to light. What are your other questions?
SPEAKER 14 :
Well, the third question from the new act, if I read it right, towards the end there are imposing upon firearms retailers or FFLs a duty to advertise this new act. That they say, okay, you’ve either got to hand out cards or have a sign at your place of business with letters one inch high that tell people about this new act. And then they also refer to having material that the FFLs can print out from the Office of Suicide Prevention within the State Department of Public Health And when I go to that website, I don’t see anything for anybody to print out. So I don’t know if they were just behind the curve, not quite there yet, or what’s going on.
SPEAKER 10 :
Well, I think any time they can squeeze you for more money, the answer is yes. They want to. How’s that sound?
SPEAKER 15 :
Requiring retailers to have printouts for things is not new. I personally do not partake in drugs or anything like that, but I’ve been to a couple of dispensaries before, and they are required to give you a paper of the dangers of using concentrated marijuana. And it’s a fairly new thing, but requiring retailers to give you just a printout of, oh, here’s the health risks, and here’s this, and here’s that, is not a new concept at all.
SPEAKER 10 :
Okay, well, tell you what, Jerry, Luke’s going to be reading up on this, and he will report in later in the show. Sorry, that’s all I can give you, but I want to make sure we give you good answers. Sound fair? Sounds good. I appreciate it. Thank you. Awesome, Jerry. Thanks for the call. Next up is John in Cheyenne. John, what about 2024? It was the year of what?
SPEAKER 08 :
The death knell of the lamestream media.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yes. The legacy media lost control of the narrative, didn’t they?
SPEAKER 08 :
They did, and they’ve died, but they haven’t crawled into the grave yet. You can just look at their ratings on most of them. Even on the conservative side, like a Fox News, their ratings are down, too, because everyone’s like, I’m not going to listen to this crap anymore. I’m going to look it up for myself, whether it’s on X or 100 other websites where you can research from every point of view.
SPEAKER 10 :
Well, for one thing, you can look at so many sources. Like you’re saying, you can go to X, you can go to YouTube and get a lot of sources. But what about this also, John? I think that there was just such a letdown in the aftermath of the election. Not a letdown in happiness for people like me, of course, I’m thrilled. But I’m talking about people after the election, they were building up, building up, building up, building up, building up. We got to win, got to win, got to win, got to win. And also our chosen outlets for news were telling us we were going to win, going to win, going to win, whether you were on the left or the right. In the aftermath, after the left lost… Their viewership dropped by over 50% almost across the board. And I just get a feeling that their people on their side are now some will come back, of course, but right now I think they’re deflated. And I think on the right, even on the right, it’s almost like we’re just exhaling for a moment here.
SPEAKER 15 :
I think it’s also just people are tired of the extremes of mainstream media. I mean, CNN is always, oh, a Trump win will be the worst thing in the world. Fox News, a Kamala win would be the worst thing in the world.
SPEAKER 10 :
So it’s like we just got tired of the extremes. Andy Pate also says a Kamala win would be the worst thing in the world. Just so you know. But I am extreme. I am, by my own admission, extreme.
SPEAKER 08 :
You know, Andy, I’m kind of like you. My first presidential election was for the first Reagan campaign. And I haven’t looked back since.
SPEAKER 10 :
I agree.
SPEAKER 08 :
But ask me the question again and I’ve got a second answer for you.
SPEAKER 10 :
Okay, here we go. 2024 was the year when?
SPEAKER 08 :
The people of Colorado lost their rights.
SPEAKER 10 :
Well, that seems to happen annually here, but in what way this time?
SPEAKER 08 :
Well, $8 for a dozen eggs.
SPEAKER 04 :
Oh, gosh.
SPEAKER 08 :
Um… You can’t buy a high-capacity magazine. You can’t buy fireworks. You pay $8 for eggs.
SPEAKER 10 :
By the way, I hate the whole range-free thing that jacked up the costs on eggs. I want all my chickens in shackles. And I want them marching across the barnyard in a row.
SPEAKER 15 :
With the farmer singing cadences.
SPEAKER 10 :
With the farmer singing cadences, right? And holding a shotgun behind them as they work on ditches. Okay, this is what I want. I’m sorry, but the cost skyrocketed.
SPEAKER 08 :
If I want cage-free eggs, I’ll go and shop and buy them. If I want… Right.
SPEAKER 10 :
Cage… John, you dropped out.
SPEAKER 08 :
I’m sorry. I hit that dead spot on I-80. You know Wyoming. Right. Um… I want my choice, and it seems like the people that are in power in Colorado have taken away your choice.
SPEAKER 10 :
Colorado is anti-choice, anti-liberty, more and more and more and more, John, and I think you’re right. And unfortunately, I’ve got to let you go with that, John. Great answers. Thanks, sir. And real quick, I’m going to give my answer and then we’re going to come back. We’re going to come back to Eli Brimmer on the other side of the break here, but I’ll give my answer and we’ll talk about it later. I believe 2024 is the year wokeness died. It’s been coming for quite a while, right? But wokeness, I believe, finally bit the big one. It’s done? It is. Well, you know how you, let’s say you’re walking up a hill and you finally get to the top and then you start down the other side? We have finally gotten to the point where wokeness has become an insult. Wokeness has become a pejorative. Wokeness, if you are woke, more people now look at you in a bad way than a good way.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah. You’re less likely to make friends. You’re less likely to get jobs if you’re outwardly woke.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yeah, and I think, and we’ll talk about this later, but I think we saw that reflected in the election. A lot of the election, yeah, it was about Trump, but you know what? It was also just about people getting sick and tired of wokeness being shoved down their throats. And they were like, you know what? Some of the stuff I like, some I don’t, but I want to choose which, okay? And I don’t like it being imposed on me. Let’s take a break. When we come back, folks, we are going to be talking about, there’s a witch hunt coming. in the Colorado GOP. And I mean, it’s going to be huge. But up first, we’re going to talk about somebody who never does a witch hunt because they care about you. That’s Golden Eagle Financial.

SPEAKER 10 :
And welcome back to Rush to Reason. Denver’s Afternoon Rush. KLZ 560. Andy Pate filling in for John Rush along with Luke and Ashley. And let’s get right to the phones here. We’ve got Eli Bremers on the line. Eli, how you doing, sir?
SPEAKER 09 :
I’m doing great, Andy. How are you doing?
SPEAKER 10 :
I am doing pretty well, although I’m a little bit worried about what’s coming with the Colorado Republican Party. I wish I had queued up the Inquisition from Mel Brooks’ History of the World Part 1, which is great, by the way. The Inquisition. Eli, explain to me, what is an anti-corruption committee?
SPEAKER 09 :
Well, it’s what you just said. It’s like out of Mel Brooks, like nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition. You basically have a bunch of corrupt people running around and and attacking the enemies of the state. And so there’s a little bit of money left that the state party has not been able to successfully move from the account that was supposed to be spent on our candidates that came in from national funds into their own pockets. So I think what they’re going to do now is they’re going to pay friends to go do the Spanish Inquisition Republican edition and pay for the service so that they can bleed all the funds down before hopefully being thrown out in March.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yes, but here’s the thing that’s very concerning is who they chose to run it. I call Matt Arnold, who they’re going to have over the Anti-Corruption Committee, he is a newly christened lawyer. I call Matt Arnold the Colorado godfather of lawfare. I mean, nobody does lawfare like Matt Arnold. What’s his history of lawsuits?
SPEAKER 09 :
what that’s not just that in the ending but you think if you wanted someone to actually address corruption you would put someone who doesn’t have a history of it in charge and this is like putting hunter biden in charge of the drug enforcement agency uh… i mean it it utterly ridiculous If you Google Matt Arnold, you’re going to discover lots of fun things, one of which is that he lied on his resume while running for public office. He lied about having a master’s degree. And this is all public record. I’ve known him for many years. He’s never been a decent human being. He’s never been ethical or principled. When he was in the Colorado Guard, I turned him in for a UCMJ violation because he was doing politics on active duty, which is a UCMJ violation. and had several other offenses. So he has done lawfare inside the GOP. He only attacks Republicans. And this is who the Colorado Republican Party is now paying money to. And again, this is not money that they raised. It’s money that the National Republican Congressional Committee sent to Colorado to support our congressional candidates. And that is the money that they’re now using to do their Spanish Inquisition on their political enemies.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yeah, but here was Matt’s main way of doing it. He would flood lawsuits at the county parties, at the state party. What he would do is kind of the buckshot approach and have all kinds of lawsuits that he could launch. So when we’re talking about Matt Arnold, because keep in mind that the state party could have chosen all kinds of lawyers, right? They could have chosen a lawyer.
SPEAKER 09 :
And to be fair, they couldn’t because there’s no real lawyer that would ever take this case. McDonald’s does not carry liability insurance for a reason. Right. His entire strategy is sue me because I have no money to pay it with because he’s broke as a joke.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yeah, but what I mean is this. But Eli, what I mean is this. They’re not just looking to put out a couple, one or two lawsuits. This is going to be spread, okay? Matt Arnold, when he gets in charge, is going to want to shoot lawsuits all over the place at anyone who is considered an opponent of Dave Williams. I mean, isn’t that kind of what you expect? It is what I expect.
SPEAKER 09 :
Well, I expect it, and we don’t have to guess. They’ve already said this is what they intend to do. What did they say they intend to do? they intend to basically sue everybody that has opposed them, that has written anything that is opposing them. And let’s remember here, Andy, these people are not elected on a primary ballot. In fact, not only were they not elected on a primary ballot, these people opposed the people that were elected on a primary ballot from your listeners. Okay, so these are not, I’m going to put air quotes, the Colorado Republican Party. This is a group of insiders who have hijacked the organization and are doing things with it that would make the Democrats blush if you handed it over to the Democrats. And so the strategy now, I think there’s about $100,000 or $150,000 left that the National Republicans sent out here to help Gabe Evans and Jeff Hurd, who won on their own, despite the state party not because of it. And a lot of us, you, me, and many others worked very hard this year to mitigate those damages. But they’re trying to take that money, put it back in their own pockets. and keep on running this insider you know this insider dictatorship and they’re going to use lawfare to do it i mean that the democrats have used lawfare and this is the republican version of lawfare they’re turning it against members of the republican party because andy these people cannot win with with Republicans. Don’t forget that these people have been rejected by actual Republicans. And they’re trying to set up a system where whereby they can control the party. And they’re fully insulated. So they don’t have to answer to any voters.
SPEAKER 10 :
Oh, yeah, every time they run in a primary, they get absolutely destroyed. And I mean, avalanche destroyed. And it’s really something to watch. Here’s what really worries me, Eli, let’s say that. I mean, how many counties do we have? Is it 64 or 65? I forget. 64.
SPEAKER 08 :
64 counties.
SPEAKER 10 :
Okay. It doesn’t matter what county you’re in. Almost every county has a Dave loyalist who wants to, you know, get on the state central committee and vote for Dave. Dave has loyalists throughout the state. Okay. Now, if Dave has to run in a general primary, his people as activists cannot overrun a primary, so he loses huge, and that’s why he lost by over 30 points in his primary. Okay. While he was state chair, which is hilarious. But his loyalists can overrun assemblies. They can overrun caucus. They can overrun these small groups of people because less than 1% of Colorado Republicans attend caucus or assembly. Okay. The reason I’m saying that is this. So let’s say that you are in, I’ll just say, Wakatomi County. I’m making it up. Okay. And your name is Bob. Okay. And Bob is opposing a Dave Loyalist. to get into this position. Okay, now you have a fully funded state committee, because not just Matt Arnold, he’s gonna have a nice committee of people full of tons of volunteers. They snap into action. Here’s what they can do. They can do a full background check on Bob. They can talk to places where Bob’s worked. They can talk to people Bob has known. They can grill Bob’s past and dig for dirt. This is what political activists do, okay? They dig for dirt on Bob, and then what does Matt do? Well, for the safety of the party, because Bob, we have found, is actually a very dangerous guy, you launch lawsuits. Or you threaten Bob with lawsuits. So you go to Bob and then say, Bob, I’m afraid we’re going to have to bring a suit against you if you keep pursuing this position. Because, you know, we have to protect the integrity of the party. OK, we got to protect the integrity of it. So if you keep pursuing this position, here comes a lawsuit. Isn’t that what Matt Arnold could do? And as he’s shown in the past, that’s probably what he would do with that kind of power.
SPEAKER 09 :
Well, actually, Andy, it goes a step beyond that. They don’t even bother with the research phase. They just make the accusation. I am getting ready to I’ll be announcing very shortly legal action that we are taking against not just the party, but several individuals acting in their own capacity who publicly put out all over the state a saying that I had incited murderous violence. Oh. And several other people.
SPEAKER 10 :
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh. Eli, Eli, that’s too good. That’s too good. Can we go to break? And I want to take an early break so we have more time in the next segment. When we come back, I want to read what they said about you per Rhino Watch. Is that okay?

Absolutely.

SPEAKER 10 :
And let me just play something that’s very special to me. Here we go.
SPEAKER 16 :
Welcome back to Rush to Reason.
SPEAKER 10 :
Denver’s Afternoon Rush. KLC 560. Andy Pate filling in for John Rush. Eli Bremer on the line. Eli, do you like the Inquisition?
SPEAKER 09 :
Well, whether or not I like it, I mean, nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition. I know.
SPEAKER 10 :
It is so funny. Okay, this is what was written by Rhino Watch, and the reason I’m reading it is it really kind of crystallizes what they’re accusing people of. It says, a town hall led on X by Eli Bremmer, which, by the way, I don’t even think you led it, but here we go. Led by Eli Bremmer, Britt Horn, Todd Watkins, Natalie Tennant, Steve Peck, and RNC National Chair Committee woman, boy, that’s a long title, Christy Fedura, took things to an entirely new and dangerous level. Threats of violence are directly linked to the town hall. These same people who attempted a failed coup have been continually lying about the Colorado GOP in order to sow division and hate, which is now instigating others to literally threaten to murder, yes, murder, the elected Colorado GOP officers. Okay, respond to this, Eli.
SPEAKER 09 :
Well, yeah, as you pointed out, it’s so factually false. I was texted a link to it and said, hey, this is an interesting town hall. You might want to pay attention. So I jumped on. The only participation I had in it was that a vice chairman in Douglas County had incorrectly reported summarized state law. So I looked up the reference and I read it. I said, here’s the actual reference to the state law. It was a very technical conversation about how a vacancy is filled when a county commissioner vacates, which is interesting to me. My wife is a sitting county commissioner in El Paso County. She has pondered stepping down because she’s also the CEO now of a major nonprofit. So she’s a pretty busy woman. And so obviously this topic was of interest to me.
SPEAKER 10 :
Eli, do you often foster violence by reading state law?
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah, do you encourage murder by telling the truth?
SPEAKER 10 :
Yeah, do you often encourage murder by reading state law? I mean, do you do this at the mall?
SPEAKER 09 :
I think, you know, in court, if you apply the reasonable standard version, yes, it’s very reasonable to assume that when you read a copy of the state law, and it was a technical piece, it said who would constitute the members of a vacancy committee. That’s pretty violent. Yeah, that incites violence pretty much every time. OK, so and so actually the whole meeting, in fact, Hope Scheffelman, the vice chairman who, you know, for your listeners are probably familiar. She’s filed false police reports and she’s under investigation for false fine police documents and stuff like that. She was actually on the call and enacted civilly, which surprised me. Everybody was civil. There was no raised voices or anything like that. Following the the Twitter spaces town hall, which, again, was totally benign. It was just about the technical requirements to fulfill a county commissioner seat and how that happened in Douglas County. Whoever’s running the state party. twitter account or x account i believe it was darcy shaning or one of those people uh they were they were attacking this guy who had listened in on the call and then asked the question that was again a benign question are you talking chavez
SPEAKER 10 :
Anthony Chavez. And wait, wait, wait a minute. So they were actually attacking him and provoking the guy.
SPEAKER 09 :
They were, yeah, they were, they were on social media deep into the night. Okay. And I’m not really much on social media, but they were deep into the night at like being very inflammatory and, and all that. So the next day, this guy who I’ve never met, I don’t, I actually don’t even know who he is. I couldn’t pull him out of the lineup. Me either. He, he puts, he puts some stuff out that was inappropriate and, you know, 12 hours after a town hall and after the, you know, Darcy or whoever was on the state account that night drinking probably, you know, was putting inflammatory stuff out. And so they come out and they accuse me of, you know, inciting murder, which then now is when you should cue the music. Like, nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition. And so this is… That’s Monty Python, by the way.
SPEAKER 10 :
I just want to make sure people know. Monty Python. Go ahead.
SPEAKER 09 :
Yes. Oh, that’s right, yes. But anyway, this is how devolved the system is right now, that then they go use that for lawfare, and they’re taking the money that should be being used right now. Look, we have an incredible opportunity in the state. I was on your show ahead of the election, and I said there’s a very real chance we’re going to get four Republicans elected to Congress. That’s 50% of our delegation. Right. I’m reasonably good at math, and I’m pretty confident if I take Jeff Craig, Jeff Hurd, Gabe Evans, and Lauren Boebert, that gets me to four congressmen. We got half of the state congressmen here. Now, Gabe Evans is in a very tough reelection already because that’s a swing district. Right. And there’s an incumbent president. OK, everybody who watches politics will tell you being in a swing district when the president from your party is one of the toughest environments to run in.
SPEAKER 10 :
Right. And that’s where we and that’s where the state party should be moving resources.
SPEAKER 09 :
They should be hoarding resources already to support that campaign. We should probably bolster Jeff Hurd up a little bit, and instead, I’m hearing that they’re trying to primary him, or worse, they want to cancel the primary. In fact, Andy, there’s been emails that are going out, and people are openly talking about saying that the state Republican Party is desperately trying to cancel the primary. So the hundreds of thousands of people, or tens of thousands of people that are listening right now, I want you to hear this. The cabal running the state party, Dave Williams, Darcy Shaining, Hope Shepelman, Tom Bjorklund, they want to discard your vote because you don’t vote the way that they tell you to. And that is the cabal that’s running this. And they are OK losing two or even three congressional seats. as long as they are the ones who get to pick the candidates. Right now, they’ve got a state senator who is closely aligned with them, who’s hired a consultant out of Texas, who is going around and telling lobbyists, you have to give me money right now because the state party is going to cancel the primary, and they’ve already got it rigged to pick their buddy to be the gubernatorial candidate. So this is the level of corruption that we’re dealing with. And the irony is they hire one of the most absurd corrupt incompetent frauds in the history of colorado politics to run the spanish inquisition integrity committee as i said before it would be like putting hunter biden in charge of the dea or in charge of the treasury department well who has a committee and not get a worse i mean just think of the title of it who has a committee for anti-corruption
SPEAKER 10 :
I mean, that just, I’m sure he does. That screams witch hunt. I mean, it just screams. Look, if you want to go after corruption, you don’t need a committee. Anybody can do it. Feel free. What’s stopping you, Dave Williams? What’s stopping you, Hope Shepelman? Just go after corruption. Call it out.
SPEAKER 09 :
Look at this. This reminds me of the Hunter Biden or the Joe Biden era, which, thank God, is coming to an end in just over three short weeks. Yes. Actually, I think it is three weeks from today. So it’s coming to an end. But this is the same type of thing that they were accusing everybody else of being corrupt. The Biden family is a syndicated crime family that engages in international financial crimes. They were taking money out of Ukraine, Romania, China, all over the world. Okay. Okay. And they were the ones who were screaming anti-corruption. Thank God Donald Trump’s coming in because he’s not going to put an anti-corruption committee in. He’s putting Kash Patel in there. And we’re going to clean up the FBI and the Department of Justice. That’s what you actually do. And the liberal media is terrified of that. But the reality of it is Donald Trump is doing to the federal government what eventually is going to have to happen to the Colorado Republican Party. which is to drain the swamp, get the self-interested people out of there, and get rid of the actual corruption. And you don’t do it by putting – again, Google Matt Arnold. I mean, there’s a famous national article, The Dog Ate My Homework, when he lied about having a master’s degree at Johns Hopkins. And, oh, by the way, when I helped expose him on that in 2012, he had committed resume fraud. Guess what? He threatened to sue me. He threatened to come after me. I mean, this guy has been – he literally is the worst person I can think of to have any – any credibility on anti-corruption because he is one of the most corrupt, just fraudulent people that I’ve ever seen in politics, which is saying something.
SPEAKER 10 :
Well, his modus operandi is lawfare. It is launch lawsuit after lawsuit. And for those who don’t know, Eli, didn’t he tie up all kinds of like county and state party elements with constant lawsuits and then basically told, I think it was the state party, hey, give me $10,000 for… you know, my business venture, and this can all go away. How’d that go? What did he do?
SPEAKER 09 :
Yeah, he’s tried to, he has a history of trying to shake people down. He’s a thug, too. I was standing there at the stairwell at the Republican Party organizational meeting, I believe it was in 2017, when he got into a physical altercation with Wayne Logeson, who’s a journalist. I think I even had to submit a formal piece of paperwork to the court because Um, he, he wound up, you know, in a huge legal battle over that, but I saw it with my own eyes. I mean, the guy’s a thug and, uh, you know, and he, he uses, he’ll try to beat people up physically or he’ll use lawfare, but, but that’s the quality of person that the current corrupt Colorado GOP organization. is bringing in to supposedly bring integrity. I mean, that’s like saying we’re going to use toilet water to disinfect a wound. I mean, it’s just, it’s asinine.
SPEAKER 10 :
Well, Eli, thanks for coming in today because I got to be honest, this is scary, okay? This is an inquisition. And I think anybody who’s going to be running in any of the counties, running against a Dave Loyalist to get on these positions, has got to be worried because you’ve got a committee that is going to want to turn your background upside down and look for dirt on you in order to protect their power structure in the party.
SPEAKER 15 :
Or even make up dirt on you.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yeah, or even make up dirt on you and then have this guy who’s willing to launch lawsuit after lawsuit after lawsuit with state party money. This is dangerous, Eli. It scares me.
SPEAKER 09 :
Well, and Andy, here’s what people can do. Call your Republican elected officials because they all sit on the state central committee and tell them you’re watching how they vote on this issue, because there’s a lot of them that want to hide in the shadows and that don’t they’re scared because they don’t want the lawfare to come after them. If your listeners want to be able to do something, call your local Republican Party chair and say, I expect a change at the state party. Call your state reps, your board of regents, your congressmen, if they’re a Republican, and say, I need you to be very, very straightforward. Use your position to force change and get rid of the corruption at the state party. Because, Andy, if we don’t do this, your listeners are going to be sitting here in a year and a half and saying, the candidates that were chosen for us are all wholesale corrupts. And they’re all going to lose in the general election. And Colorado will go to the left of San Francisco if the leadership right now continues to get their way.
SPEAKER 10 :
Yeah, I want to bring up one little reminder for everybody, Eli. And by the way, thank you for what you’re doing. Had the state party gotten its way in its endorsements for the U.S. House election, Republicans would not be running the U.S. House right now. We would not be leading it. The Democrats would have probably won three out of the four seats here in Colorado. I mean, out of the four seats that we won. The Democrats would have taken at least two of those in CD3 and CD8 for sure. And they very well could have taken CD5, which would give them the U.S. House. The only reason… Republicans hold the U S house is because here in our little state of Colorado, the primary voters went against the Colorado state party. Eli.
SPEAKER 09 :
Well, that’s correct. And, Andy, I think that is so important for people to realize and remember that Colorado, that if Dave Williams, Darcy Shaining, Hope Shuffman, all these people had gotten their way, we would not be having a battle over Speaker of the House. And thank God Donald Trump did the right thing. He came out and endorsed Mike Johnson. We need to end the nonsense there, too. But we would be having Speaker Hakeem Jeffries. If the Colorado GOP had gotten their way, it would be Speaker Hakeem Jeffries saying, And we would be in a micro-minority again in the Colorado House and probably in the Colorado Senate. This has consequences.
SPEAKER 10 :
Eli, thanks for all you’re doing. Let us know when this lawsuit goes forward. I’d love to hear about it. How’s it going, Andy? Thanks. You bet. Take care. Okay, up next is Cub Creek Heating and Air.

SPEAKER 05 :
Now back to Rush to Reason on KLZ 560.
SPEAKER 10 :
And welcome back to Rush to Reason, Denver’s Afternoon Rush, KLZ 560, Andy Pate filling in for John Rush, along with Luke Cashman and Ashley Cart. Her. Her. That’s right. Okay. Hey, Jerry called in earlier and wanted to know a little bit more about the new gun law. Luke, you’ve been doing some reading. Give us some info.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, real quick, you can find this for yourself at leg.colorado.gov. Just because I flubbed that last little part there, that’s leg.colorado.gov.
SPEAKER 10 :
Not glove?
SPEAKER 03 :
Not glove.
SPEAKER 10 :
Oh, okay.
SPEAKER 03 :
This is House Bill 24-1348, the secure firearm storage in a vehicle. Bill’s summary in plain English. Three quick little paragraphs. I’ll try and run through them real fast here. Go. The act prohibits knowingly leaving a handgun in an unattended vehicle unless the handgun is stored in a locked hard-sided container that is placed out of plain view and the container is in a locked vehicle, the locked trunk of the locked vehicle, or a locked recreational vehicle.
SPEAKER 10 :
Okay, so glove compartment that is locked.
SPEAKER 03 :
That is locked and out of sight. Right?
SPEAKER 10 :
Well, you can see the glove compartment.
SPEAKER 03 :
Right, but the firearm itself is out of sight. Okay, making sure. Second paragraph. The act prohibits knowingly leaving a firearm that is not a handgun in an unattended vehicle unless the firearm is stored in a locked, hard-sided, or soft-sided container that is placed out of plain view and the container is in a locked vehicle, the locked trunk of the locked vehicle, or in a locked recreational vehicle. A firearm that is not a handgun, that is stored in a soft-sided container, must have a locking device installed on the firearm while stored in the soft-sided container.
SPEAKER 10 :
Which is because, of course, you can get into the soft-sided container very easily.
SPEAKER 03 :
Very easily. All right. Third paragraph. A person who is considered to have a disability who stores a firearm in a locked, soft-sided container does not violate the requirement to store a firearm in a hard-sided container. The act includes exceptions for the storage of requirement. Okay. The final little bit, which is very important… Unsafe storage of a firearm as it pertains to what I just described in a vehicle is a civil infraction, which means it is lower than a misdemeanor. The worst that can happen is a maximum $100 fine. Oh.
SPEAKER 15 :
So it’s kind of like we talked about. It’s just something to tack on of like if you leave your car unlocked, you left a gun in there, someone steals it, and now you have to pay somebody.
SPEAKER 03 :
You get an extra $100 on your ticket.
SPEAKER 15 :
Yeah.
SPEAKER 03 :
Is what that is.
SPEAKER 10 :
Okay. Well, what do you think? What do I think? I mean, that actually… Look, that doesn’t sound that bad. I don’t want cars unlocked with unlocked weapons where people can get right in and get the weapon.
SPEAKER 03 :
It just sounds like common sense.
SPEAKER 10 :
I mean, there’s too many weirdos out there, okay?
SPEAKER 03 :
You’re putting a law on common sense. I’d say… I would like to exist in a world where this wasn’t necessary.
SPEAKER 10 :
No, no, you’re in Denver.
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah. With the way things are now, I think, unfortunately, it is kind of necessary. Again, it’s not like the punishment for it is substantial. It is a civil infraction. The lowest you can possibly get.
SPEAKER 10 :
Okay, two quick questions, and you’ve got about a minute and a half. Yeah. Number one, was this really opposed by many people here in Colorado, the gun lobby? And number two, do you have any concerns, though, that the left could use this and weaponize it and misuse this law against gun owners?
SPEAKER 03 :
I don’t know how you misuse the law. Again, it’s a civil infraction. The worst that will ever happen is a $100 fine. It’s so low, I guarantee you, you won’t have anyone actively searching for it. It’s not worth the effort.
SPEAKER 15 :
Except for maybe a Denver cop.
SPEAKER 03 :
Right. Did anyone oppose it? I have no idea. I think it makes – I can see it, right? I think it’s – I don’t think it’s unreasonable. Do I think it’s a little inconvenient? Sure. But, you know, I don’t see any – like, nothing’s glaring at me as this is a huge issue.
SPEAKER 10 :
Look, I mean, let’s make it simple. If your glove compartment locks and all you’ve got to do is lock it in your glove compartment and have the car locked, which you better have your car locked anyway.
SPEAKER 03 :
Right. You should do that. Otherwise, you’re nuts.
SPEAKER 10 :
Right. So that doesn’t seem that inconvenient to me.
SPEAKER 03 :
No, I think it’s perfectly reasonable.
SPEAKER 10 :
And most gun owners, they don’t leave the gun in the car anyway. They’re carrying it.
SPEAKER 15 :
Well, yeah. I mean, I’ve been shooting guns pretty much my entire life. I own them, shoot them. I go out.
SPEAKER 10 :
I know. You were doing it as you walked into the studio. I know. Sorry.
SPEAKER 15 :
I just can’t help it.
SPEAKER 03 :
Brandishing.
SPEAKER 15 :
Brandishing.
SPEAKER 10 :
And now we’re not soundproofed anymore. But go ahead. You got 10 seconds.
SPEAKER 15 :
But it just it’s common sense. I never leave a gun in my car in plain view. That’s just the stupidest thing you could do.
SPEAKER 10 :
I agree. You know, this this law, you know, and I am one of these knee jerk against gun laws kind of guy because I’m sorry, but I’ve seen the left use them so much to rob people of their rights. Right. This one doesn’t sound so bad. Are we agreed?
SPEAKER 03 :
Yeah, I think it sounds fine.
SPEAKER 10 :
At least on the face of it. All right. All right, folks, that is it for our number one. And our number two, we’re going to be talking Broncos in the NFL in the first half of the hour with Richard Rush. And then we’re going to talk a little bit about Trump. And I also want to talk about the 2020 election because. Yes, I’m not one of these 2020 steel zealots, but I will tell you this. There’s some reasons to believe that there was some real chicanery there, and I want to take one last easy look. Until then, keep it right here at Rush to Reason, KLZ 560.
