Local Canvassing Firm’s Big Elon Musk Contract Takes Horror Show Turn

We wrote just over a week ago about a brewing scandal inside gazillionaire Donald Trump supporter Elon Musk’s America PAC operation, which has taken over responsibility for field campaign efforts for the Trump campaign in a number of key states.

What Coordinated Campaign? Colorado Republicans Face The Down-Ballot Abyss

We’re just 42 days away from the 2024 general election, and as Colorado Public Radio’s Bente Birkeland and Caitlyn Kim report, the divided Colorado Republican Party’s disorganization and lack of resources to assist candidates at any level this year is becoming a full-scale emergency–and despite the urgency with yet another looming catastrophe at the polls […]

Gabe Evans, Like Trump, is Still Confused on Voter Views About Abortion Rights

It’s no secret that the issue of abortion rights has been a primary driver for voters since the June 2022 Supreme Court decision overturning Roe v. Wade that removed federal protections for reproductive health care for women. In every state that has held a vote on abortion rights since the 2022 SCOTUS decision — red […]

The RFK Jr. Diversion Didn’t Work And Is Almost Over

As CNN reports, after all the consternation involved in getting minor presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. on the ballot in Colorado, first controversially as the Libertarian Party’s nominee and then by his own devices, Kennedy’s campaign may be about to unceremoniously end with an endorsement of Donald Trump in exchange for a promised position […]

Jared Polis won’t be signing any compromise without confirmation that controversial Initiatives […]

Lauren Boebert Rage Tweets From Garfield County Court

On its face, this was just another incendiary Tweet from Colorado’s patron saint of incendiary Tweeting, Rep.

J.D. Vance Really, Really Not Going Over Well

Newsweek reports that GOP freshman Sen. J.D.

Boebert Wants to Fix Secret Service by…Not Paying Them?

To say that Congressperson Lauren Boebert is a “one-trick pony” wouldn’t be entirely accurate — unless you’re talking about her ideas for legislation related to federal agencies.

But on a […]

I nervously laughed […]

Dave Williams is Ruining Things for All Other Dave Williamses

There is a lot of money being spent in Colorado’s fifth congressional district in a late effort to make sure that Republican State Party Chairman Dave Williams does not win his June 25th Primary race against fellow Republican Jeff Crank. This is both about Williams the congressional candidate and Williams the State GOP Chair, because […]

Another Gem from the Party of Law and…Whatever

Let’s start with the quote, because that’s the real star of this story: “I am absolutely very strong in fighting crime.
