Rundown -   Intro - 00:35   Mike Littwin - 07:24   Troubadour Dave Gunders - 01:46:36   "Just Try Me" by Dave Gunders - 02:08:13   Outro - 02:13:51   Following this historic month of political upheaval, the lead columnist for @coloradosun, Mike Littwin, reviews the dramatic developments climaxed by the Chicago DNC. VP Kamala Harris' acceptance speech was the cherry on top.   Littwin recounts his career from growing up in Norfolk to covering the local ABA Virginia Squires – who practiced at the Norfolk JCC. Point guard Larry Brown and forward Doug Moe were friendly to young Littwin, who labored for the local paper.   Two years later, the Squires had a new player, Julius Erving, who stood out. When George Gervin joined the Squires, Littwin witnessed the Iceman and Dr. J. play hellacious one-on-one games after practice. https://images.app.goo.gl/WjANJtiwQUN6Ffoi6   Littwin went on to significant stints at the Baltimore Sun and LA Times before heading to Denver, where, for decades, he was Denver's leading news columnist at the late Rocky Mountain News. Littwin's work still shines twice a week at the Colorado Sun.   Kamala Harris' nomination acceptance speech gets thoroughly reviewed. The Craig Silverman Show salutes Littwin for bravely calling on @potus to step down right after his debate debacle. Littwin kept it up in subsequent columns. https://coloradosun.com/2024/06/30/biden-trump-debate-opinion-littwin/   Social media barbs were thrown at Littwin and others advocating for Biden to pass the torch. The show recognizes the critical roles of Ezra Klein, David Axelrod, Tim Miller, NYT, George Clooney, Joe Walsh, Pod Save America, Joe Salazar, and Rob Reiner for joining the patriotic advocacy.   The antisemitism of Donald Trump gets addressed and undressed. Given Trump's verbal attack on PA Gov. Josh Shapiro and Trump's claims Jews need their heads examined, Littwin lets loose on the GOP presidential nominee. Host and guest talk as two experienced American Jews.   We have never seen a phenomenon like Kamala Harris and her VP selection, Tim Walz. We go over the Walz speech and the sensation caused when Gus Walz cried with pride in his Dad. Warning: get a handkerchief. You may want to cry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBrnKM0jo40   The following bold names are subjects of Littwin stories: Jim Murray, David Simon, Dr. J., Larry Brown, Doug Moe, Bill Owens, John Hickenlooper, Michael Bennet, Jason Crow, Joe Neguse, Jack Nicklaus, Bob Beauprez, Hank Brown, RFK JR., and Cory Gardner.   We talk about photojournalist for RMN and NYT, Todd Heisler, who took amazing Kamala pic at the DNC. Littwin traveled the world with Heisler when they worked together. Learn the respect Littwin has for Heisler. https://www.mediaite.com/news/just-stunning-iconic-photo-of-kamala-harris-and-great-niece-amara-during-dnc-speech-goes-viral/   Littwin keeps columnizing because he loves his craft and his Colorado Sun audience is enormous. Colorado readers are deprived of most of our old favorites, but not the legendary Littwin, who still enjoys the challenge and profit of churning out world-class columns for us to enjoy.   Littwin's highly accomplished UT Austin law professor daughter, Angie Littwin, and Littwin's grandsons also have him loving life. Few people like politics and history more than Mike Littwin. We like and feel Kamalamomentum. https://law.utexas.edu/faculty/angela-k-littwin/publications/   Troubadour Dave Gunders loved the Chicago DNC and identified his favorite parts. Kamala Harris was the star, and we hope our 47th President. She made her case on Thursday. "Just Try Me" is the perfect Gunders' persuasion song for the American electorate. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lCfJgGEUYRo&list=OLAK5uy_lwU1xbs2JtDfVhprMsLjmBd45zsa1IfPE&index=2

Rundown -   Intro - 00:35   Dave Gunders - 08:33   "Train Keeps Coming" by Dave Gunders - 27:52   Joe Salazar in Craig's Lawyers' Lounge - 32:54   Outro - 01:36:53   Former Colorado State Representative Joe Salazar gets welcomed into Craig's Lawyers' Lounge to talk about his role as a Colorado DNC Member and Delegate to the Chicago convention one month from now. Joe Salazar is an outspoken advocate that President Joe Biden declines the 2024 Dem nomination.   Joe Salazar is a former Colorado House of Representatives member who served three terms in the state legislature. He was vice chair of the House Judiciary and State, Veterans and Military Affairs committees. Salazar was the first member of his family to go to college and law school.   Joe Salazar describes his fascinating multi-ethnic background. He's a civil rights attorney and political activist. Salazar has deep family roots in Colorado with his Spanish ancestors arriving in the area in the late 1500s or early 1600s. He also has ties to the Apache tribe.   We discuss the bravery of Colorado Senator Michael Bennet, Representative Jason Crow and Representative Brittany Pettersen in leading the charge to have President Biden withdraw from the nomination.   Should President Biden step down from the presidency, making VP Kamala Harris the incumbent President, and who should be her VP? What are the roles of billionaires like Musk and Zuckerberg in all of this?   Troubadour Dave Gunders brings us his terrific song, titled "Train Keeps Coming," full of symbolism for Amtrack Joe to take the last train home to Delaware and the show contemplates a hiatus if Joe Biden doesn't leave the race. But we expect Joe to go. And America to continue. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6_03dUueF0

Rundown -   Intro - 00:26   Joe Salazar and Steve Woodrow - 05:09   Outro - 59:40   Colorado's fresh panel show podcast about the Trump litigation may have its best and final show. The US Supreme Court is shutting down all the litigations with its awful immunity ruling in Trump v. USA.   We feature two fine attorneys with long tenures in the Colorado House. Steven Woodrow is a Democrat representing House District 2 in Denver. Rep. Woodrow shows courage by even engaging in this talk about replacing Joe, President Joe Biden.   Our other special panelist is former Colorado State Rep. and longtime civil rights lawyer Joe Salazar. He is now a member of the DNC. Joe Salazar objects to Joe Biden's coronation, citing the debate debacle as Exhibit One.   We discuss the fitness of Joe Biden to continue as the Democratic Party nominee. Or can Dems do much better with Kamala Harris, Gretchen Whitmer, Josh Shapiro, Rafael Warnock or Michelle Obama?   Then, we move on to contemplate the implications of the horrible Supreme Court ruling turning our President into a sovereign, with immunity for official acts, even if they involve murder, rape and theft. Immunity for the most amoral president we've ever had? What could go wrong?   Joe Salazar is stepping up. And wait till you hear Salazar's compelling closing argument on behalf of himself, his children and the indigenous people, citing fellow delegate to the DNC, James Zogby. They are rounding up the support of others for Chicago. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/07/02/us/politics/dnc-process-to-replace-biden.html   The Zogby/Salazar plan would be most entertaining. Our panel show will entertain you and make you think. Thanks to the US Supreme Court, the Trump litigations are on permanent “sorting out Trump's immunity” claims. But Joe Salazar and Steve Woodrow are excellent guests. Enjoy.

This week the gang spoke with former state Representative and Senator Joe Salazar!

Scientists tell us we have about 12 years to ward off a complete climate change apocalypse. To do that, we have to stop drilling and fracking. On this episode, I talk to former State Rep. Joe Salazar, one of the leaders in the movement to make that happen. He's the executive director of Colorado Rising, which came close to passing a ballot measure to limit fossil fuel extraction. Salazar says it’s time for Democrats to take a stand not just for solar panels and electric vehicles, but against more fossil fuel extraction.

Another round of the 'War of the Worlds' broadcast from 1938, State Rep. Joe Salazar's racial Tweet targeting Walker Stapleton grabs our attention.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode we take an early look at the candidates in Colorado’s 2018 Democratic Gubernatorial Primary and consider the possibility that Colorado’s major parties might opt-out of Proposition 108. Segment 1: Assessing the Candidates With the announcement by Ken Salazar that he will not run, the field in Colorado’s Democratic Primary for Governor is becoming a bit clearer. Congressman Ed Perlmutter has to be considered the frontrunner at this point. Though he has not officially announced, he has stated as recently as last month that “chances are very good” he will run. Perlmutter, as a Congressman since 2007, would also seem to be a preferred candidate of the establishment, along with former State Treasurer Cary Kennedy if she decides to jump into the race. The question is: Does that help or hurt in a Democratic Primary? Clearly, there is a divide within the Colorado Democratic Party between the more establishment Democrats who backed Hillary Clinton, and the Bernie Sanders wing of the party. Sanders defeated Clinton in last year’s caucus, and since November Sanders-inspired groups have been encouraging supporters to run for leadership positions at the county and state level, with varying degrees of success. Asked to describe the Sanders-inspired, Our Revolution viewpoint by The Colorado Independent’s Corey Hutchins, Joe Salazar, perhaps the most prominent and outspoken Bernie Sanders supporter in Colorado, said: “They want to change the Democratic Party so it’s more responsive to the people and less responsive to corporate dollars, I think that pretty much sums it up”, adding that he worries that oil and gas money has too much sway in Democratic politics in Colorado. What does that mean for Perlmutter? Cozying up to the oil and gas industry is a common criticism coming from the left at prominent Colorado Democrats like Governor Hickenlooper and Senator Bennet, though embracing a more moderate position on the issue has led to some crossover appeal, and Perlmutter appears to be cut from the same cloth. And even among Democratic voters, the environment is rarely a top-of-mind, decisive issue when choosing a candidate to vote for. As for “corporate dollars”? Congressman Perlmutter managed the final stage of Wall Street reform in the House in 2010. He doesn’t appear vulnerable on that front. He also supported Congressman Tim Ryan’s insurgent bid to become House Minority Leader against Nancy Pelosi So maybe Perlmutter is the perfect candidate – appealing to the establishment while having sufficient progressive credentials to garner support from the party’s more liberal wing where a majority of the energy seems to be located. He could be. And that’s likely why Colorado Pols on their Big Line has Perlmutter as far and away the favorite for Governor, stating that “Now that Ken Salazar has backed away from the race, Perlmutter can take the baton and get moving”, and that former State Senator Michael Johnston “cannot beat Perlmutter in a Democratic Primary. Period.” As for Johnston, his campaign made news Tuesday morning by reporting a record early fundraising haul, none of which came from political action committees or from his own pocket. At the very least, this shows that he should be taken more seriously as a candidate, and that his chances of winning the Democratic nomination are greater than zero. If the most important question is which candidate can best position themselves with, for lack of a better term, the “Bernie Sanders” wing of the Colorado Democratic Party, Johnston has already drawn explicit comparisons from local media, and he says that “I think the Bernie folks will find a lot of the values that they share will be evidenced in our campaign.” Still, Johnston supported Hillary Clinton during last year’s primary contest, and his progressive credentials are not without flaws, as Chase Woodruff details here. This all makes for a fascinating, fascinating race to watch. Segment 2: To Opt-Out or Not to Opt-Out? For our second segment, on a related topic, let’s take a look at something Congressman Perlmutter said during his remarks at the 7th Congressional District Democratic reorganization meeting a few weeks ago (from the Colorado Statesman’s Ernest Luning): Perlmutter also urged Democrats to consider looming changes to state law governing how political parties nominate candidates following last year’s voter approval of Proposition 108, which opens up primary elections to unaffiliated voters. “There’s another provision there I think we, as Democrats, and you as members of the state central committee need to keep in mind. And that’s an opt-out provision,” he said, noting that three-quarters of a party’s central committee can vote to skip primaries entirely and nominate candidates through the caucus and assembly process. “It’s a big change in the law and one that Democrats may not pursue, and that’s fine,” he said. “But you all need to know about it and think about it because it’s a very important function, and the decision by the central committee has to be made by Oct. 1 of this year. Potentially it could save candidates a lot of money if you’re working through the assembly process, and it give you, as delegates or committee members a lot of power if you have candidates up and down the ballot going through the assembly process and whoever’s chosen is the nominee.” For a primer on what he’s talking about, here’s an article on Proposition 108 from the Denver Post. Basically, the much-hyped Proposition 108, which opens up primaries to Unaffiliated voters, contains a provision that allows parties to “opt out” of holding primaries and instead choose to nominate candidates by assembly or convention. The Post article goes on to note that Proposition 108 drew opposition from both Steve House and Rick Palacio, both now former chairs of their respective parties. And the crux of the argument can be found in a quote from Penfield Tate, a former state legislator and aide to both former Mayor Peña and former Gov. Romer, who said that he doesn’t want unaffiliated voters, who may not share his values, to play a part in choosing his nominees: “If you’re a Catholic, you want the college of cardinals to select the next pope, not Methodist ministers.” So back to Perlmutter, while not wanting to read too much into what he said, one has to think that he considered carefully what to say to that particular crowd at the re-org meeting. And he sure seems to be supportive or at least considering opting-out of Proposition 108, by noting that it could save candidates a lot of money and delegates or committee members would have a lot of power. Doing so would seem to be a huge dismissal of the will of Colorado’s voters, who voted for Proposition 108 just last year by a margin of 53-47%. Not to mention the fact that the majority of the Democratic establishment in Colorado lined up behind Clinton during the caucuses last March, and yet Sanders still won a resounding victory. The issue of whether or not to opt-out was an issue during the race to become state GOP Chair as well, though a victory for Jeff Hays this past Saturday likely means that Republicans will not be opting-out. If the Democrats do in fact decide to forego a Primary in favor of a caucus and assembly, that would theoretically push a lot more Unaffiliated voters into the Republican Primary, to the point where they actually may have an impact. Only time will tell…
