President Donald Trump wants to extend his 2017 tax cuts for rich people as soon as possible, but he also knows that he needs to avoid the political third rails of making cuts to Medicaid, Medicare, and Social Security. But as The New York Times explains, something’s gotta give…and it looks like it might be […]
As the Summit Daily’s Robert Tann reports, the Colorado Senate passed on final third reading today a contentious but broadly misunderstood piece of gun safety legislation, much modified from its original form of a strict ban on semiautomatic weapons meeting specific criteria in common with the definition of an assault rifle into a new training […]
CNN reports on a development late last week in the Musk Trump administration’s escalating purge of federal employees across numerous agencies, the firing of several hundred staffers at the Department of Energy’s National Nuclear Security Administration (NNSA) in a move the so-called Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) quickly came to regret: Some of the fired […]
Gutless Senate Republicans today approved the nomination of Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, the latest blind acquiescence to the whims of President Donald Trump. Clockwise from top left: Pam Bondi (AG); Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. (HHS); Tulsi Gabbard (DNI); Kash Patel (FBI); Kristi Noem (DHS); Pete Hegseth […]
As CNN reports, one of the final and most contentious pieces of President Donald Trump’s second Cabinet was narrowly confirmed by the Republican-controlled U.S. Senate this morning, and later today Robert Francis Kennedy, Jr. will be sworn in as the director of the Department of Health and Human Services, consummating the alliance forged between the […]
USA TODAY reports on the confirmation today of one of the most controversial of President Donald Trump’s Cabinet nominees, former Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii to serve as Director of National Intelligence–a position with access to the nation’s deepest secrets, control over American intelligence and covert operations around the world, and too many other […]
President Donald Trump campaigned heavily in 2024 on promises to lower the cost of groceries (including eggs) and gasoline if given another term in the White House. Voters obliged, and then Trump promptly got started on…not doing a damn thing to lower costs for Americans. As CNBC notes in a detailed chart, the cost of […]
In blue-trending Jefferson County, once considered a bellwether for the state’s evolution from red to blue and today reflecting the state’s overall Democratic dominance at the polls, the local Republican Party has not been what you’d call a competitive political organization, staffed by crackpots like the immediate former chairwoman of the JeffCo GOP Nancy Pallozzi […]
For years Donald Trump has been ignoring many of the social and political norms that once existed in this country. Trump attacks everyone, spares no-one, spews misinformation at every opportunity, and ignores guardrails put in place to separate politics from government (such as holding his 2020 Presidential nomination speech on the White House lawn). But President […]
President Trump and Prime Minister Elon Musk are working hard on lowering the price of eggs decimating the federal government, an effort that could soon hit home here in Colorado. As John Aguilar reports for The Denver Post: The Denver Federal Center, an institution for more than eight decades in the middle of Lakewood, faces […]
I’ve seen just as many anti-Elon Musk signs as anti-Trump signs at this protest in Denver. @DenverChannel #copolitics pic.twitter.com/HPBabVWFPT — Brandon Richard (@BrandonLRichard) February 5, 2025 As the Denver Post’s political team Seth Klamann and Nick Coltrain report from the Colorado Capitol today, what’s being described by all accounts as an unexpectedly large crowd of […]
President Trump is tackling what Americans said was the most important issue of the 2024 election — inflation and the cost of groceries (including eggs) — with a laser focus! From The Associated Press: Trump will sign an executive order on Wednesday designed to prevent people who were biologically assigned male at birth from participating […]
As Colorado Newsline’s Quentin Young reports, there’s a pasty, pudgy virus loose in one of America’s most important systems: Democratic members of Colorado’s congressional delegation reacted with shock Monday to reports that a team led by Trump administration-empowered Elon Musk had infiltrated sensitive data and financial systems overseen by multiple federal government agencies. Several of […]
After last week’s tragic midair collision near Washington National Airport between an American Airlines jet and an Army helicopter, freshman GOP Rep. Gabe Evans has been making the rounds on cable and local news as an “expert” on operations of the UH-60 Black Hawk helicopter involved in the accident, having himself flown the same aircraft […]
Progress? Is that what this is? One year ago today, Republicans in the State House of Representatives made complete asses of themselves in their (annual) opposition to what is an (annual) resolution acknowledging Black History Month. The top clown in the House Republican Caucus — Colorado Springs Rep. Ken “Dildo” DeGraaf — even voted against the […]
UPDATE: The pain from Donald Trump’s threatened tariffs postponed by 30 days as both Canada and Mexico opt to buy time for negotiations, reports AP: President Donald Trump on Monday agreed to a 30-day pause on his tariff threats against Mexico and Canada as America’s two largest trading partners took steps to appease his concerns […]
As the Washington Post’s Isaac Arnsdorf reports from the nation’s capitol today, where last night an American Airlines plane carrying sixty people crashed on approach to National Airport after apparently colliding with an Army helicopter over the Potomac River, resulting in the biggest loss of life due to an aviation incident in many years–and where […]
Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Denver) made headlines on Wednesday by verbally pummeling Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. during a confirmation hearing for the Trump nominee to lead the Department of Health and Human Services. Apparently, Bennet was just getting started. This morning Bennet was really riled up during a confirmation hearing for Tulsi Gabbard, Trump’s pick […]
This morning in Washington, one of the most controversial of President Donald Trump’s Cabinet nominees, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to lead the Department of Health and Human Services, had his first confirmation hearing in the U.S. Senate Finance Committee. Kennedy’s nomination to lead HHS is the product of an unholy alliance forged during the campaign […]
UPDATE: WaPo reports that the White House has sounded full retreat on yesterday’s chaos-inducing funding freeze, leaving Rep. Gabe Evans and other Republicans who jumped to the administration’s defense holding the bag: The White House budget office on Wednesday rescinded an order freezing federal grants, according to a copy of a new memo obtained by […]
UPDATE #2: As hoped, AP reports that a federal judge has halted President Donald Trump’s unprecedented federal funding freeze until next week at the earliest: A federal judge has temporarily blocked a Trump administration freeze on federal grants and loans that could total trillions of dollars. U.S. District Judge Loren L. AliKhan blocked the action […]
UPDATE #2: Words like “catastrophic” and “chaos” are being used to describe this surprise order. As Nick Coltrain and Seth Klamann report for The Denver Post: A sudden freeze on federal spending by the Trump administration — set to take effect Tuesday — sent Colorado officials scrambling as they tried to figure out the extent and […]
Donald Trump said a lot of stuff while he was running for President in 2024. Now that he’s back in the White House, some of his top campaign promises are already falling by the wayside. As The Associated Press reports: Two months ago, in his first network television interview after the election, Donald Trump said […]
KABC-TV Los Angeles reports ahead of President Donald Trump’s arrival this afternoon in the city to politicize survey the devastation from recent wildfires that have burned thousands of homes, including some of the most exclusive neighborhoods in the whole country–damage that Trump has falsely blamed on measures to protect fish in the central part of […]
What do you get when you take an issue like reproductive rights, add a few House Republicans, and give them a microphone? A whole lot of stupid. As Marianne Goodland writes for the publication formerly known as the Colorado Statesman: The Colorado House on Friday passed a Senate resolution on “Reproductive Rights and Justice Day,” […]
