Alright, Polsters, it’s time to opine on the biggest race of them all. For weeks we’ve been asking you to give your thoughts on who might come out ahead in Colorado tightest congressional races. Now we want your thoughts on the big enchilada on the ballot. As always, we want to know WHAT YOU THINK […]
Nothing quite says, “Happy Birthday, America” like opening the door to turning the United States into a dictatorship. The conservative majority on the United States Supreme Court used the opportunity of the week of America’s birthday to award “Presidential immunity” to whomever occupies the top elected office in the land. The Washington Post explains a […]
The United States currently produces more oil than any country at any time in history. Under President Joe Biden. The two largest American oil companies — ExxonMobil and Chevron — recently reported their largest annual profits in more than a decade. But if that’s not enough for the oil and gas industry, and it may not […]
Chase Woodruff of Colorado Newsline reports this morning on an “emergency meeting” that took place last night in Castle Rock, organized by the militia-fortified conservative activist group FEC United. Last night’s meeting featured a number of Colorado Republicans who, like a majority of the Republican rank-and-file, believe as an article of faith–faith being necessary due […]
(Today’s Republican Party — Promoted by Colorado Pols) UPDATE: Vice Chair Rahn returned CTR’s request for comment soon after publication. Her comments have been added. The ties between the Colorado Republican Party and FEC United, a far-right conspiracy group that includes a militia division, are still going strong. The recent revelation that state GOP chair […]
A press release from the activist group Rural Colorado United is calling for freshman GOP Rep. Lauren Boebert to release her tax returns from 2018 to the present, after a still-mysterious disclosure by Boebert late last week of almost $1 million in compensation paid to Rep. Boebert’s spouse by a Texas-based oil and gas company: After […]
Even if you have been living under a rock lately, chances are still pretty good that you’ve already heard about the big news surrounding President Trump’s personal finances — including $421 million in debts (which might be a low estimate) and the $750 that Trump paid in federal income taxes in recent years. The New York […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Especially as the election nears, political entities that post fake news on their Facebook pages will face massive public backlash, right? Let’s hope so. Today’s fake news problem can be found on the website of the Colorado Hispanic Republicans, which describes itself as a “center-right organization dedicated to creating a welcoming […]
UPDATE: Oh, it gets worse. As The Independent reports: Donald Trump‘s team have edited his face on to the body of teenage climate change activist Greta Thunberg after she was named Time‘s Person of the Year. The official Trump War Room account on Twitter posted the altered front cover of the magazine on Wednesday, the […]
Iran reportedly shot down a U.S. naval drone on Thursday, raising the risk of a potential conflict between the two countries. Here’s what President Trump had to say today: The president of the United States won’t tell the public if he’s planning a military strike against Iran pic.twitter.com/HSyl8XfHlw — Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) June 20, 2019 […]
Both President Trump and Democratic Presidential hopeful Joe Biden were in Iowa on Tuesday as part of their respective 2020 election campaigns. The two men shot a lot of arrows back and forth, a verbal battle that captured most of the headlines related to the word “Iowa.” But those headlines obscured a couple of really strange […]
We have nothing to add. Click here for the full story.
With the division arch-rival Oakland Raiders suiting up to take on the Denver Broncos in Denver this afternoon, ProgressNow Colorado, the state’s largest online progressive advocacy organization, delivered messages from members across the state thanking players for standing up to Donald Trump’s irresponsible threats—and management of the club supporting the free speech rights of their […]
UPDATE: Rep. Diana DeGette of Denver blasts the decision: “Pulling out of the Paris Agreement won’t happen overnight, but this announcement’s impact will be immediate: It signals that the United States cannot be counted on to stick to its promises and is prepared to cede leadership in yet another area that is crucial to our […]
Well, this is really happening. As the Washington Post reports: Donald John Trump was sworn in Friday as the 45th president of the United States, taking office on a day that has featured smaller crowds and more subdued ceremony than previous inaugurations — but still ushers in a transformative shift in the country’s leadership. Trump, 70, was […]
“This is the most incredible political feat I have seen in my lifetime,” said House Speaker Paul Ryan today. We can’t disagree. Donald Trump is our next President. Whether he will govern as the bombastic character he represented during the campaign — or move to a more collaborative tone, as he indicated in his victory […]
UPDATE: We’ve posted a few clips from last night’s Castle Rock town council meeting after the jump. You can watch Castle Rock’s city manager and another town employee warning of the consequences of refusing the CDBG grant money on existing recipients in Castle Rock. Then you can watch Castle Rock’s mayor decry the fact that […]
As controversy raged over the recent horrific attack on a pregnant Longmont woman toward the end of this year’s legislative session, we noted in late April that a bill proposed by Colorado Senate Republicans “in response” to that attack, Senate Bill 15-268, incorporated model language from the national anti-abortion advocacy group Americans United For Life. […]
We wrote earlier this week about the new "shockumentary" from national conservative filmmakers Citizens United on the "takeover" of Colorado by Democrats beginning in 2004, Rocky Mountain Heist. As we discussed, the film is mostly a hyped-up version of Adam Schrager's excellent book on the same subject, Blueprint: How the Democrats Won Colorado, with as […]
UPDATE: Victory! Thursday, June 5, 2014, Deputy Secretary of State Suzanne Staiert denied Citizens United's petition to "be the media", i.e., to run political ads masquerading as documentaries, without disclosing donors. From Brandon Rittiman's reporting on 9news: The Colorado Secretary of State's office ruled that an upcoming documentary featuring state politicians "is an electioneering communication" […]
As the Denver Post's Lynn Bartels reports: Former Vice President Dick Cheney attended two fundraisers in Denver today, one for his daughter, Liz, a U.S. Senate candidate in Wyoming and one for the state GOP, where plenty of Republicans were excited about recent polling numbers for Democrats John Hickenlooper and Mark Udall. Bartels reports that […]
The United States General Accountability Office (GAO) has released a report to Congress that, in part, condemns the Colorado Legislature's failure to pay for contractual Colorado PERA pension benefits that have been enacted by the Legislature (that is, meet actuarially required pension contributions, ARC.) The report, "State and Local Government Pension Plans: Economic Downturn Spurs […]
Here's the new TV spot running on behalf of Sen. Angela Giron of Pueblo–we haven't gotten word on the buy size, except that it's "significant." We'll update once a number is reported:
The law that gave personhood to corporations can be directly blamed for the current division within the city of Grand Junction. Normally city council elections are ho-hum affairs, and not many people pay attention. I started paying attention when I realized that the Grand Junction Chamber of Commerce was stacking the deck. Western Colorado Business […]
For years, we at ProgressNow Colorado have been tracking the influence of a secretive conservative organization known as the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC). Recent scandals in other states have resulted in an uncomfortably higher profile for this organization, which has operated in Colorado for decades with very little attention. The United States of ALEC […]
