Dan unloads on meek, mousy so-called 'mayor' Mike Johnston after the man who promised a 'Tiananmen Square moment' for ICE officers looking to deport Denver illegals surrenders to a violent mob of teenagers planning to plague City Park on Saturday, forcing the Denver Zoo to close several hours early at 1pm to avoid any chance of violence for patrons and the animals.

President Trump expresses frustration with Iran and Israel for breaking a tenuous ceasefire in its early hours by using R-rated language in an interaction with White House reporters.
