Chuck And Julie Show with Chuck Bonniwell and Julie Hayden
Election Eve, Court Battles, and Colorado’s One-Party Reckoning
Election eve …. We break down the CO GOP gubernatorial race and also the divide within the Democrats.
Grassroots Politics on Election Eve
In this episode of The Chuck and Julie Show, hosts Julie Hayden and Chuck Bonniwell discuss Colorado politics on the eve of the primary election, beginning with the Republican gubernatorial race. Julie opens while Chuck is still arriving from a newspaper-related meeting, then reviews the Republican field and argues that the race has received little serious donor investment because many believe a Republican has only a slim chance of winning the governorship in Colorado. The hosts discuss Scott Bottoms, Barb Kirkmeyer, and Victor Marx, including questions about campaign fundraising, polling, mailers, establishment support, and whether the apparent momentum around Marx is real or overstated.
The Democratic Races Draw More Attention
Julie and Chuck then turn to the Democratic side, which they consider the more consequential and interesting contest. They discuss the possibility that Colorado Democrats could experience an insurgent progressive shift similar to what they describe in New York politics. The hosts focus on races involving Diana DeGette, Michael Bennet, Phil Weiser, and more progressive challengers, suggesting that the Democratic Party is being pushed farther left and that even candidates once considered more moderate may be unable or unwilling to resist the demands of the party’s activist base.
Denver, Crime, and the Progressive Policy Debate
The discussion widens into Denver politics, especially crime, public safety, and progressive approaches to criminal justice. Julie criticizes efforts she says would effectively reduce consequences for municipal offenses, arguing that businesses are already leaving downtown Denver because people feel unsafe. Chuck and Julie frame these policies as part of a larger shift toward progressive governance in Colorado, which they believe will increase poverty, push away businesses, and make the state resemble other heavily progressive states and cities. Their commentary presents this as evidence of Colorado becoming an increasingly one-party Democratic state.
ActBlue, Outside Money, and the Socialist Left
The hosts also discuss national Democratic fundraising networks, especially ActBlue, along with claims involving Chinese-linked influence, NGOs, activist funding, climate journalism, and progressive protest networks. They connect these themes to broader concerns about the Democratic Party’s leftward movement, the influence of billionaire funders, and the role of outside organizations in shaping activism and election outcomes. Chuck argues that if federal investigators pursue ActBlue-related money trails, Democratic politicians who used the platform could face serious legal and political consequences.
Party Fractures and the Battle Inside the Left
Julie and Chuck point to public backlash against figures such as Chuck Schumer and Joe Biden as signs of fracture within the Democratic coalition. They play or reference clips of Schumer being booed at a Pride parade and Biden being heckled, interpreting those moments as evidence that establishment Democrats are increasingly vulnerable to anger from the activist left. Chuck explains that once a state becomes a one-party state, the dominant party often begins to divide internally, with factions fighting each other for control after winning power.
Court Decisions and Election Integrity
The episode also covers several court decisions, including U.S. Supreme Court rulings and a Colorado Supreme Court ruling. Julie and Chuck strongly criticize the Supreme Court’s decision allowing mail-in ballots to be counted after Election Day if postmarked by Election Day, arguing that this undermines trust and invites fraud. They also discuss a ruling allowing the president to remove certain agency heads, the Supreme Court declining to take up Donald Trump’s appeal in the E. Jean Carroll defamation case, and a Colorado Supreme Court decision blocking ballot initiatives that attempted to combine too many issues into one measure related to redistricting and election rules.
Colorado’s Future and Republican Party Turmoil
The closing portion returns to Colorado’s political direction and the state Republican Party’s internal problems. Chuck and Julie discuss Colorado’s shift toward deeper Democratic control, the possibility of jungle primary reforms, redistricting fights, and the struggle between establishment Republicans and grassroots conservatives. They also mention ongoing Republican Party procedural disputes, a frozen party bank account, leadership concerns, and the lack of urgency they perceive from new party leadership. The episode ends with the hosts looking ahead to election results and promising to break down the outcomes on the next show.

Prophecy In The Spotlight with Daniel Goodwin and Dr. Charles Hiltibidal
In That Day
The Gathering Before the Storm: Rapture, Deception, and the Day of the Lord
A Coming Gathering of the Saints
In this episode of Prophecy in the Spotlight, hosts Daniel Goodwin and Dr. Charles Hiltibidal focus on the biblical idea of a coming “gathering” of believers unto Christ. Brother Dan opens by connecting that gathering to the rapture, describing it as the blessed hope of the church and the moment when the saints will be assembled in heaven for the marriage supper while end-times events unfold on Earth. The program centers especially on 2 Thessalonians 2, where Paul speaks of the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ and “our gathering together unto him.”
Six Years of Prophecy Ministry
Before moving deeply into the passage, the hosts thank their viewers and supporters, noting that June marks six years of their national television ministry. They describe Prophecy in the Spotlight as a prophecy-centered ministry that depends on donations and remains focused on the Lord’s coming. Their tone is personal and pastoral, expressing gratitude for people who watch, give, and help keep the program going, whether through television, YouTube, Rumble, or other platforms.
The Rapture and the Jewish Wedding Pattern
Daniel and Dr. Hiltibidal reflect on the joy of the coming heavenly gathering, including reunion with redeemed loved ones and, above all, seeing Jesus. They connect the rapture to the Jewish wedding pattern, explaining how a bridegroom would propose, the bride would prepare herself, and the groom would return at the father’s appointed time to take her to the father’s house. They use this as an illustration of Christ preparing a place for the church and returning when the Father determines the time.
Sorting Out the Day of Christ and the Gathering
Dr. Hiltibidal walks through 2 Thessalonians 2 as a sequence of prophetic events. He explains that Paul is addressing confusion among the Thessalonian believers, who had been shaken by false teaching, possibly even letters falsely attributed to Paul, suggesting that the day of Christ had already arrived or was immediately at hand. The hosts distinguish between the gathering of believers at the rapture and the later visible, bodily second coming of Christ, which they identify with “that day,” “the day of Christ,” and “the day of the Lord.”
Falling Away, the Antichrist, and the Restrainer
A major portion of the discussion centers on the falling away, the revealing of the man of sin, and the role of the restrainer. Dr. Hiltibidal teaches that the rapture is the trigger that begins the prophetic sequence leading toward the tribulation and the eventual second coming. He identifies the restrainer as the Holy Spirit working through born-again believers and argues that once the church is removed, the Antichrist can be officially revealed. The hosts connect this to the abomination of desolation and the Antichrist exalting himself as God.
Strong Delusion and the Spirit of Antichrist
The hosts also discuss 2 Thessalonians 2:11–12, where Paul says that those who reject the truth will believe a lie. Dr. Hiltibidal frames this as the strong delusion associated with the Antichrist, the false prophet, and the mark of the beast. He warns that deception is already visible in the world and even in some religious settings, arguing that once the restraining influence of the Holy Spirit through the church is removed, deception will intensify dramatically. He also compares modern moral and religious confusion to the spirit of Antichrist already at work.
The Call to Be Ready
The episode closes with the hosts directing viewers to Dr. Hiltibidal’s DVD teaching, which they say walks through 2 Thessalonians 2 and related prophetic passages in sequential order. Daniel returns to the image of an old-fashioned church gathering, comparing it to the coming heavenly marriage supper where all redeemed saints will be gathered together. He ends with an evangelistic appeal, asking viewers whether their names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life, whether their sins have been washed away, and whether they are ready for the Lord’s coming.
