We don’t normally find much credible to cite over at the conservative website Complete Colorado, once colloquially known as Colorado Drudge before the world forgot who Matt Drudge ever was, but a story from the weekend by right-wing paid poison pen Sherrie Peif did catch our attention–a piece ostensibly reporting on, but without much subtlety […]
Republicans in Washington have had what can best be described as a fraught relationship with nonpartisan bean-counting authorities like the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) going back many years. Back in 2017, when the then-GOP majority during President Donald Trump’s first term was trying and failing to repeal the Affordable Care Act, then-Sen. Cory Gardner asked […]
Rolling Stone kicked off the week with new polling numbers that will sour even President Donald Trump’s Diet Coke-leathered innards: Americans are overwhelmingly skeptical of Donald Trump‘s handling of information related to the Jeffrey Epstein case. In a new UMass Amherst national poll, 70 percent of respondents said Trump is not handling the Epstein case […]
The New York Times reports this fine Friday afternoon just in case you’re still paying attention: Ghislaine Maxwell, the longtime associate of Jeffrey Epstein now serving a 20-year prison sentence for sexually exploiting and abusing teenage girls, has been moved from a federal prison in Florida to minimum-security prison camp in Texas, her lawyer said […]
CNBC reports while you nervously check that 401(k): Stocks were under pressure on Friday to kick off August trading as investors weighed stark signs of a weakening economy and President Donald Trump’s modified tariff rates. The Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 607 points, or 1.3%. The S&P 500 shed 1.5%, while the Nasdaq Composite dipped […]
(Follow-up to last week’s gaslighting — Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally published at the Colorado Times Recorder A spokesman for the Weld Food Bank says they made it clear to Congressman Gabe Evans (R-CO) that the Medicaid and SNAP food aid cuts in the budget he supported will make their lines longer, not shorter. Evans […]
Today, Colorado General Assembly leaders met at the Capitol to get reports on the expected impact to Colorado’s budget this year from passage of the Republican federal budget reconciliation bill: a budget that was balanced during this year’s session as required by the state constitution, now coming up short by an estimated billion dollars as […]

As NBC News reports, in addition to Donald Trump ordering the MAGA faithful to forget that a man named Jeffrey Epstein ever existed, the administration has opened a new diversionary front in their increasingly desperate attempts to change the subject–wild-eyed allegations of “treason” from Trump’s Director of National Intelligence, former quasi-Democratic Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, against […]
Yesterday’s bombshell report from Colorado Newsline’s Chase Woodruff disclosed immigration records that upend freshman GOP Rep. Gabe Evans’ biography as he has represented it to voters during his brief career in elected office. Evans, a staunch defender of President Donald Trump’s mass deportation campaign who helped Trump spread wildly exaggerated stories about Aurora, Colorado on […]

Freshman GOP Rep. Gabe Evans campaigned for office last year as a full-throated supporter of Donald Trump’s vow to carry out “the largest deportation campaign in American history,” to the extent of helping spread Trump’s wildly exaggerated claims about the city of Aurora, Colorado being “overrun” by migrant gangs while local officials like Aurora’s Republican […]
It has been well documented that the “big, beautiful, bullshit budget bill” that Congressional Republicans passed earlier this month that was signed into law by President Trump will be devastating for millions of Americans who will lose access to health care coverage through Medicaid or food benefits from SNAP. In the final version of the […]
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 Colorado Newsline reports, local officials are currently analyzing the impact of the recently-passed Republican federal budget bill on Colorado’s already strained state budget, looking to determine whether a special session of the legislature will be necessary to reallocate reduced resources to minimize the pain to Medicaid patients, food assistance beneficiairies, and so many others […]
As Colorado Public Radio’s Bente Birkeland reports, another MAGA patriot has allegedly taken matters into his own hands, delivering a dose of vigilante justice to enforce the continuing dogmatic insistence on the part of President Donald Trump and everyone who wants to curry favor with him that the 2020 presidential election was stolen in a […]
Fresh off his victory lap from the passage of the least popular major piece of legislation in our lifetimes, which President Donald Trump naturally calls the most popular legislation in not just American but all of human history, Trump has returned to his previous pet project of wrecking the global economy through the imposition of […]
The passage last week of the Republican budget bill they insist on calling the “One Big Beautiful Bill Act” while public opinion polls say it should be called something more profane has created a huge electoral liability for that party going into the 2026 midterms. The question is not whether but how much damage Republicans […]
There has been a lot of shuffling of deck chairs recently among the House and Senate Republican caucuses in the state legislature — both of which have been mired in minority status for years. Last week, a Republican vacancy committee in Colorado Springs replaced Senate Minority Leader Paul Lundeen with a nutball named Lynda Zamora Wilson. You might […]
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 […]

As The Washington Post reports, the big, beautiful, bullshit bill (BBBB) narrowly made it through the U.S. Senate today: The Senate on Tuesday narrowly approved massive tax and immigration legislation that Republicans hope will become the centerpiece of President Donald Trump’s second term, dramatically reorienting the role of the federal government and unwinding many of […]
Throughout the debate and especially after voting for what polls say is the most unpopular major legislation in decades, America’s Most Vulnerable Freshman™ Rep. Gabe Evans has resolutely defended the bill’s cuts to Medicaid funding, which Evans duplicitously insists are not cuts at all–and only aimed at eliminating “wasteful” coverage handed out to undocumented immigrants […]
As an antidote to the overwhelmingly negative press about America’s Most Vulnerable Freshman™ Rep. Gabe Evans’ work in Washington, Evans has leaned heavily photo ops at places around the district under the guise of “learning” about nonprofits and businesses who drive the economy in his swing congressional district and meet the basic needs of residents.
