Apologies gentle readers, the utter preposterousness of what you’re about to read has temporarily overloaded our comms channels: We deserve the truth about the Epstein Files. I'm ready for a Special Counsel to handle this. @MattGaetz, how about it? https://t.co/cEco2orhWl — Lauren Boebert (@laurenboebert) July 15, 2025 For those of you who have been living […]
As Caitlyn Kim reports for Colorado Public Radio, what may be the greatest act of political self-sabotage of our lifetimes is headed to President Donald Trump’s desk to be signed into law, as the Senate’s even more pernicious version of the Trump reconciliation budget bill given the Orwellian official name “The One Big Beautiful Bill […]
This morning, America’s Most Vulnerable Freshman™ Rep. Gabe Evans removed any lingering doubt about his unswerving support for President Donald Trump’s budget reconciliation megabill known as the “We’re All Going To Die Act,” even after certain aspects of the legislation including cuts to Medicaid and renewable energy were made even more harmful by the Senate […]
This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, oh no! The big bullshit bill has hit some serious roadblocks! Wait, sorry, OH YAY! The big bullshit bill had hit some serious roadblocks! And by “some serious roadblocks” we mean “the opinion of the vast majority of voters” How does it play in Paonia? Then, it turns […]
In the 2024 election, former radio host Jeff Crank became just the fifth different person to represent the Colorado Springs-centered fifth congressional district. Just like the other four people who preceded him, Crank is a Republican. As Colorado has become a solidly-blue state over the last 10+ years, CO-05 is the one congressional district has […]
This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, the big beautiful bullshit bill is banging around in the US Senate, and the longer it does, the worse it gets for President Trump and the Republicans who voted for it. Then, Remember Stagflation — that thing that is worse than both a stagnating economy and inflation? Well, it’s […]
It’s a maneuver beloved by shifty politicians and others looking for a quick way out of unpleasant interactions with bill collectors, small talk with in-laws, and other such dodgeable moments–and the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) this week caught America’s Most Vulnerable Freshman™ Rep. Gabe Evans red-handed pulling the “fake phone call” trick to avoid […]
Freshman Republican Rep. Gabe Evans campaigned for office in full agreement with Donald Trump’s promises to deport millions of undocumented immigrants from the country, subsidizing Trump’s wildly exaggerated claims that the city of Aurora had been “overrun” by migrant gangs and appearing with Trump at his rally last October near Denver International Airport promised that […]
In just a few months in office, freshman GOP Rep. Jeff Hurd of Grand Junction has had several high-profile moments of disagreement with President Donald Trump on a range of issues from the layoff of federal workers to Trump’s pardoning of violent January 6th, 2021 insurrectionists–though notably not in the end opposed to the “We’re […]
As NBC News reports, negotiations over the “We’re All Going To Die Act” among Republicans in the U.S. Senate have apparently taken a turn towards what was at the beginning of the budget negotiation process under President Donald Trump assured by all including Trump to be “off the table”–cuts to Medicare, the extremely popular health […]
With the U.S. Senate now considering the reconciliation budget measure christened by President Donald Trump the “Big, Beautiful Bill” to slash Medicaid, food assistance, and other funding across the depth and breadth of the federal government in order to pay for extended tax cuts for the wealthiest Americans and still managing to grow the deficit […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder Wayla Murrow and her daughter Cynda have been Medicaid members for 12 years. They applied when Cynda turned 18 so that she could access medical care to support her intellectual and developmental disabilities. Since becoming a member, Cynda, 30, has joined community programs that […]
As the Easter congressional recess wraps up, constituents in Colorado’s most vulnerable Republican Rep. Gabe Evans’ district are holding not one, not two, but three of what we’ve taken to calling “Cardboard Cory Town Halls,” in honor of the years-long campaign that highlighted former Sen. Cory Gardner’s inaccessibility to voters leading up to his ouster […]
Freshman Congressman Jeff “Bread Sandwich” Hurd (R-Grand Junction) has been an interesting mixed bag in his first few months in Congress. While Hurd has made some good decisions that speak to a desire to serve his constituents in the third congressional district, he has also demonstrated the all-too-familiar Republican fear of speaking to those same […]
Yesterday afternoon, Gov. Jared Polis signed what will go down as one of the most noteworthy pieces of legislation of the 2025 session, a bill that establishes new education requirements for the purchase of certain semiautomatic firearms like the AR-15 class of “assault weapons” used in some of the deadliest mass shootings in recent American […]
As Sam Klomhaus reported Tuesday for the Grand Junction Daily Sentinel, the Trump 2.0 administration’s attempt to bigboot its way into the state criminal conviction of former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters, who is settling into a nine-year sentence to the Colorado Department of Corrections for her role in a security breach of Dominion Voting […]
As the Salt Lake Tribune reports, this week our conservative western neighbors led by the Beehive State’s congenial Republican Gov. Spencer Cox quietly made a big change to their election system, against the overwhelming popular support for mail ballots but in keeping with the desire of President Donald Trump to do away with a form […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder Over 300 people packed into an Adams County church Saturday afternoon for a town hall meeting for residents from the 8th Congressional District. Attendees were largely local, though some came from Weld and Larimer counties as well; a few even drove down from Greeley. […]
THURSDAY UPDATE: It’s Bernie Sanders vs. Lori Saine as the always-cantankerous candidate for Colorado GOP chair organizes counter-protests for each of Sanders’ stops in Greeley and Denver: We hope both sides keep it neighborly. —– Denverite’s Kyle Harris reports on a big upcoming weekend for pressing the political flesh, with perhaps the largest crowd expected […]
We wrote yesterday about freshman GOP Rep. Jeff “Bread Sandwich” Hurd’s switch from in-person meetings with constituents to telephone town halls, following an incident last month in which Hurd’s Southwest regional staffer fled the scene of a library town hall after blanching at the size of the gathered crowd. On Tuesday evening, Rep. Hurd conducted […]
Since winning the congressional seat vacated by exited-stage-left Rep. Lauren Boebert last November, freshman Republican Rep. Jeff Hurd has been a little more difficult to pin down politically than his predecessor, thoughtfully dissenting over President Donald Trump’s pardoning of January 6th insurrectionists and more recently co-sponsoring legislation intended to offer some measure of protection for […]
As Cassandra Ballard reports for the Aurora Sentinel, last night Democratic Rep. Jason Crow of Aurora hosted an in-person town hall that by all accounts greatly exceeded turnout expectations, with an estimated 1,500 showing up to express their dismay and demand action after Trump 2.0’s calamitous first month back in office: At the biggest town-hall […]
Colorado Democrats scheduled a noon rally today outside of the Northglenn office of Rep. Gabe Evans (R-Adams County), calling on the freshman Congressman to oppose the latest Republican budget proposal that would make at least $880 billion in cuts to Medicaid. Some 1.1 million Coloradans rely on Medicaid to some degree — essentially 1 out […]
UPDATE 1:45PM: Colorado House Republicans are attempting to hold the floor in a politically ill-advised protest of the resolution condemning Donald Trump’s January 6th pardons, with debate stretching into Friday afternoon: —– This morning, the Colorado House is in the process of passing Senate Joint Resolution 25-006, a joint resolution condemning Donald Trump’s pardoning of […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally published at the Colorado Times Recorder Any Colorado voters who feel that Republicans did not spend enough energy attacking transgender people in prior election cycles can rejoice: anti-trans activist Rich Guggenheim has officially filed to run for the state’s 6th Congressional District in 2026. Guggenheim is the Colorado chapter leader […]
