Every election cycle brings its share of gadfly candidates, from the inexplicable first-timers to those who have run again and again (we’re looking at you, Greg Lopez). Thus far the 2026 election cycle has dozens upon dozens of candidates seeking all manner of political office. If history is any guide, 75% of these candidates will […]
We take you to the streets of Portland, Oregon, where we’re told the once-beautiful City of Roses is burning to the ground as the Antifa domestic terrorist onslaught continues unchecked: Hold on, folks, we must be running the wrong tape, because as KGW-TV in Portland reports, the situation is so bad that local police are…yes, […]
The first federal government shutdown since 2018 will enter double digits by reaching Day 10 tomorrow, with no apparent end in sight. That doesn’t mean there isn’t shutdown-related news to discuss. Here’s the latest in our weekly-ish shutdown updates, starting with the latest polling from Navigator Research: Republicans Getting Hammered for Shutdown…By Republicans We’ve […]
(They don’t call it the “Kirkmeyer Competency Act” for nothing — Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder With 19 Republicans running for the 2026 gubernatorial nomination, the candidates, many of whom are true MAGA patriots, will have to compete to set themselves apart from one another. And while GOP candidates like […]
(Republished under Creative Commons license by Colorado Pols) by Lindsey Toomer, Colorado Newsline October 9, 2025 Colorado Democrats in Congress called on Republicans to negotiate a bipartisan funding bill that extends health insurance tax credits to reopen the federal government. In a press call Wednesday, the lawmakers said the government is shut down solely because […]
As the federal government shutdown extends into its second week, there are signs that President Trump is beginning to waver on his commitment to this chaos. The Republican lie that Democrats want to fund health care for undocumented immigrants is going nowhere. Democrats, meanwhile, continue to dominate the narrative by keeping Republicans on the defensive […]
As FOX 31’s Ashley Michels reports–while most of Congress is wrestling with the ongoing shutdown of the federal government, and pressing issues from the faltering Trump economy to Schrödinger’s Epstein Files competing for the attention of voters, Colorado’s carpetbagging cornucopia of crazy Rep. Lauren Boebert just dropped another distraction into this most distracted of news […]
Last week, the Boulder County Republican Party announced their keynote speaker for their upcoming annual fundraiser known as the Make-Lincoln-Turn-Over-In-His-Grave Dinner–and for all the deliberately provocative names local Republicans regularly fly in to headline their fundraisers, their choice in this locale is what the experts call a real doozy: John Eastman, as readers who haven’t […]
The first federal government shutdown since 2018 entered its second full day today. It will continue (at least) through tomorrow because the Senate is on recess until Friday in honor of Yom Kippur. We’ll provide regular shutdown updates as the news warrants, so let’s get to it… 54,000 Colorado Workers Stuck “In Limbo” As […]
Republicans and President Trump are trying really, really hard to blame Democrats for the government shutdown that began at 12:01 am today. The Trump administration, in fact, is violating the “Hatch Act” in an attempt to sway public opinion. As CBS News reports: Ahead of Wednesday’s government shutdown, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development on […]
Top brass from every branch of the United States military flew in from all over the world to attend a lecture in Virginia today in which Pete Hegseth, Secretary of Defense, or War (or whatever) called them fat and President Trump rambled about a bizarre proposal to conduct military training in American cities while demanding […]
(Nonpartisan no more — Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder Municipal elections in Aurora are supposed to be non-partisan, but while Aurora’s elections are many things, non-partisan is not one of them. Last week, Aurora City Councillor Danielle Jurinsky and her slate of Republican-backed candidates held a rally at the […]
As the Washington Post reports, we’re twelve hours and counting down to another shutdown of the federal government, and President Donald Trump via Republican congressional leadership is showing no sign of concession to Democrats in the U.S. Senate they need to pass a continuing resolution: Republicans have proposed keeping the government funded at current levels […]
As KOAA News5’s Alasyn Zimmerman reported yesterday, while the Trump administration and Republicans in Washington, D.C. were doing their best to distract you with everything but the proverbial kitchen sink: Standing outside Congressman Jeff Crank’s Colorado Springs Office Wednesday afternoon, Sky Roberts and his wife Amanda urged the congressman to support a bill that would […]
As NBC News reports, the White House has introduced a new and troubling potential consideration to the increasingly urgent debate over legislation to keep the government from entering another shutdown on October 1st–a threat to permanently fire employees who would normally only be furloughed in a shutdown and then reinstated with back pay: The White […]
Back in January 2019, the satirical publication The Onion targeted then-Congressman Scott Tipton (R-Cortez) for a laugh by joking that polling data indicated that Americans blamed Tipton for a government shutdown that lasted more than a month (the true cause was President Trump’s insistence that Congress provide $5.7 billion for a border wall with Mexico […]
There isn’t time in the news cycle to take note of every ad that goes up in America’s hottest U.S. House race, Colorado’s ultra-swing CO-08 featuring America’s Most Vulnerable Incumbent™ Rep. Gabe Evans, but when it’s a timely, hard-hitting, and (most importantly) well-funded ad campaign like this latest offering from the House Majority Forward PAC, […]
As Nick Coltrain reports for The Denver Post, Donald Trump’s 2024 campaign promises to lower inflation and the cost of goods have been ignored. Instead, Colorado and the rest of the country on the brink of a recession: Colorado state government faces a continuing dim fiscal picture heading into next year as a slowing economy, […]
(It’s not the Libertarian Party you remember — Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder The Libertarian Party of Colorado’s Executive Director Jim Wiley believes that the Israeli government is responsible for murdering Charlie Kirk. Wiley repeatedly made this claim as well as a series of other antisemitic statements in his public […]
Over the weekend, MSNBC broke the latest problematic news for the “most transparent administration in American history”–a story that in any other administration would have ended in federal bribery charges, but because border czar Tom Homan is tight with Donald Trump, no such legal oversight apparently applies: The federal investigation was launched in western Texas […]
No matter their political affiliation, most major party nominees for President of the United States generally repeat a similar phrase in which they promise to be a President for all Americans. Most of them probably even mean what they say. Democrat Joe Biden said it when he was elected in 2020. Four years later, Democratic Presidential […]

An eye-opening new poll from AP/NORC should serve as a giant flashing red light for Republicans. As The Associated Press explains: Republicans’ outlook on the direction of the country has soured dramatically, according to a new AP-NORC poll that was conducted shortly after last week’s assassination of conservative activist Charlie Kirk. The share of Republicans who […]
UPDATE: As David Sims writes for The Atlantic, Kimmel’s indefinite suspension marks a significant escalation for Trumpland: There have already been signs that President Donald Trump’s administration is intent on punishing perceived critics in the media, no matter what complaints about free speech might arise, but the chain of events that shut down Jimmy Kimmel […]
Back in June, we took note of a series of photo-op stops by America’s Most Vulnerable Incumbent™ Rep. Gabe Evans to locations in his district who have been or are about to be negatively impacted by policies of the Trump administration, and in particular the “We’re All Going To Die Act” federal budget bill for […]
