State Sen. Kerry Donovan (D-Vail) filed paperwork on Wednesday to become an official candidate for Congress in Colorado’s third congressional district, which is currently represented by freshman Rep. Lauren “Q*Bert” Boebert (R-ifle).

Today, Donovan made the news, uh, super-official with a video announcement that included a not-so-subtle jab at Q*Bert:

“Real toughness isn’t something you wear on your hip. It’s what you get done for people…

…I’m a rancher, an educator, and a state senator. And I’ve been able to get things done, like expanding rural broadband and cutting the cost of health care, because I’ll work with anyone, regardless of their party…

…At this extraordinary moment in our history, we need to work together to fix what’s been broken. The last thing we need are people in Congress who talk tough and stoke division and fear.”
