There are hopeful signs that the hard six weeks we’ve been through are indeed slowing the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic, thanks in large part to our in-state leadership, with no thanks to Trump and his political allies in Washington. With that said, it’s up to us now […]
(White House? What White House? — Promoted by Colorado Pols) If there is a limit to Sen. Cory Gardner’s (R-CO) willingness to refrain from criticizing President Trump, it seems musing about the benefits of ingesting bleach isn’t the last straw. Asked to evaluate the administration’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, Gardner refused, saying it was […]
The 2018 election cycle was a huge year for Democrats in Colorado, but also across the country. Democrats won control of the U.S. House of Representatives in 2018 but actually lost two seats in the U.S. Senate (more on that in a moment). That may change in 2020. In 2018, Democrats flipped 40 seats in […]
In another edition of our regular feature “At Least They’re Not Your Legislator,” we take you to California, where one local official has lost his position after a particularly weird appearance during a “virtual” meeting on Zoom. As the Vallejo Times Herald reports: Chris Platzer said in an email to the Vallejo Times-Herald on Saturday […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) If you’re looking for smoke signals that Colorado Republicans will moderate their views to appeal to Unaffiliated voters who decide Colorado elections these days, stop reading this post now. The Colorado Republican Party just elected a leading Tea Party activist to represent the Colorado GOP on a national Republican National Convention […]
(God helps those who don’t screw themselves – Promoted by Colorado Pols) Saying “we will not get through this mess without the blessing of God,” U.S. Rep. Ken Buck (R-CO) told a conservative radio host Thursday that he will apparently defy Gov. Jared Polis’ (D-CO) orders and go to church May 3, one week from […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Calling COVID-19 an “urban disease” and an “old person’s disease,” Trump adviser Stephen Moore praised Colorado’s weekend protest against stay-at-home orders as “effective” in advancing Moore’s goal of reopening the economy quickly. “I saw some of the photos of what happened there in Colorado this week,” Moore told KCOL radio Monday, […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Sen. Cory Gardner (R-CO) has been notoriously difficult to reach for comment recently, particularly when it comes to criticizing President Trump. Gardner’s reluctance to publicly cross his party’s leader has been widely reported, but that didn’t stop him from attacking his likely election opponent, former Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper, for failing […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) In a political fundraising email sent yesterday, statehouse Minority Leader Patrick Neville (R-Castle Rock) underreported the number of Coloradans hospitalized with coronavirus by half. He claims “fewer than 900 people” have had hospital stays, but publicly available state data put the total at over 2,000. The Colorado Department of Public Health […]
This is the headline for today’s editorial in the Colorado Springs Gazette, the leading right-of-center outlet in the state owned by Colorado Republican megadonor Phil Anschutz. If you’d rather not read the whole thing, and we would understand your decision to put it mildly, the answer reached by the Gazette editorial board to the question […]
As The Hill reports, some Republican public figures are a little more…frank in their estimation of the value of the lives of Americans than others in these trying times. That, for the second time in the present emergency, includes Texas Lite Gov. Dan Patrick: Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick (R) called for the reopening of […]
As a team of Denver Post reporters detail for us, yesterday Gov. Jared Polis outlined a process by which the state of Colorado will begin to reopen the mostly-shuttered economy at the end of April after over a month of mandatory stay-at-home orders in place–orders which appear to have definitively turned the tide against the […]
(Read this – Promoted by Colorado Pols) Even in its purest form, political opposition research is by its nature a fishing expedition. Researchers scour public records for evidence of lawbreaking or wrongdoing by their target. Any evidence found can then be used for legal action, media pitches or paid advertising. When a political goal is […]
(COVID4America! – Promoted by Colorado Pols) Colorado Citizen Press, an anonymous conservative blog whose sponsors include Take Back Colorado, a political committee tied to Republican State House Leader Patrick Neville, published an item this morning that promotes two protests on Sunday calling on Gov. Jared Polis (D-CO) to allow businesses to open, despite the ongoing […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Less than two weeks ago, we wrote asking you to contact Colorado House Minority Leader Patrick Neville, and tell him to stop putting Colorado lives at risk during the COVID-19 pandemic with his outrageous and irresponsible rhetoric: openly encouraging resistance to stay-at-home orders to combat the pandemic, and comparing the battle […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) If a COVID-19 vaccine is developed, what about so-called “anti-vaxxers” who refuse it for religious or philosophical reasons? It turns out Colorado, where vaccinations are currently recommended but not required for adults, has the authority to force you to roll up your sleeve and get the shot. But experts say it’s […]
Republican George Brauchler represents Arapahoe County and parts of a few other counties as the District Attorney in the 18th Judicial District. Brauchler failed at two statewide campaigns in 2018 — first for Governor, then for Attorney General — and is term-limited in 2020. In recent months Brauchler has been prepping for a post-government career […]
As the Denver Post’s Justin Wingerter reports–it would appear somebody has come to the conclusion that last week’s public relations debacle for Sen. Cory Gardner, who tried to turn the negative story of an order by the state of Colorado for 500 ventilator machines snatched up by the federal government into a positive via a […]

Just like you, we’re doing our best to stay productive during this difficult period, and making sure that when the stay-at-home order is lifted we’re healthy and ready to get back to full steam. I’m incredibly proud of my co-workers, my neighbors, our public safety officials, and most […]
The latest data from the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment shows that Weld County, with a population around 350,000, now has the most number of COVID-19 fatalities of any county in the state–more than several counties with around twice Weld County’s population including the City and County of Denver. We noted a week […]
In case you missed it last Friday night, there was an ugly coda to the spectacular failure last week by Sen. Cory Gardner to turn the lemon of the Trump administration’s co-opting of 500 ventilators sought by the state of Colorado into arithmetically challenged “lemonade” of a mere 100 ventilators after Gardner’s “personal request” to […]
Kim McGahey, former Summit County school board member and county GOP chairman now running for the Colorado House in HD-61, has got this whole coronavirus pandemic thing figured out! His drop-what-you’re-doing letter to the editor at the Summit Daily News, and we all know newspaper letters to the editor are the gold standard for peer-reviewed […]
The Colorado Springs Independent’s Jeanne Davant reported yesterday that a threatened withdrawal of support by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) from drive-up COVID-19 testing programs could impact local efforts: The Federal Emergency Management Agency has ended support for community COVID-19 testing sites effective April 10, leaving in doubt the future of the drive-up test […]
Yesterday, Sen. Cory Gardner of Colorado in concert with America’s Twitterer-in-chief rolled out a multimedia PR package “celebrating” the delivery due to a personal request from Gardner to Donald Trump of 100 new ventilator machines to our state from the Strategic National Stockpile. This rollout included a Tweet to the President’s tens of millions of […]

Cory Gardner’s Washington, D.C. office and tell him to investigate the alleged co-opting of 500 ventilators the state of Colorado tried to buy to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic by the federal government–this after President Trump himself told states to […]
