Which Comes First: House Speaker or Christmas?

This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, it’s going to be pretty hard to be funny as the Hamas terrorist attacks on innocent Israelis quickly turns into a war that will mean far too many deaths of both Palestinian and Israeli civilians. We’ll talk about what this means for Colorado and national politics as well.

The Republican Party has once again failed to nominate a candidate that can get enough votes in their own conference to become Speaker of the House;  “CNN Ken,” or is it “KenSNBC,” is just a contrarian for the sake of it and is quickly approaching 8th-favorite-member-of-congress levels of attention seeking. The current titleholder, Lauren Boebert, is still indefensibly horrible. A new Colorado State Representative refused to condemn political violence not once but twice; what should we think, and why did Republicans botch this opportunity? And your ballot is on the way this week! We talk about the two statewide initiatives you need to know about.
