The Colorado Independent reports on the fallout from the passage this year of Senate Bill 17-267, the hard-fought compromise to save rural hospitals and give the state budget a small bit of breathing room through the reclassification of the state’s Hospital Provider Fee program to exempt it from revenue limits imposed by the 1992 Taxpayer’s […]
If you’ve turned out for any of the major protest events in Denver since Donald Trump took office, you might already know Katie Farnan. Katie is a mother of two young kids who stood up after Trump’s election to start organizing the resistance in her community. Last week, the Associated Press told Katie’s story: Stationing […]
(Спасибо дружище! – Promoted by Colorado Pols) Some Colorado conservatives are joining Trump in blaming the press for the daily-eye-pop-head-spin news stories streaming from the White House. Leading the charge are local talk radio hosts, but conservative politicians are also mad at journalists. Appearing on KOA 850-AM’s Mandy Connell show yesterday, U.S. Rep. Ken Buck (R-CO) […]
The Colorado Independent’s Corey Hutchins reports on yet another win for Republican political gadfly Matt Arnold–this time against a so-called “social welfare nonprofit” fronted by former Colorado Republican Party chairman Ryan Call: A state judge in Colorado has fined a nonprofit $23,000 for coordinating with local campaigns and not registering as a political committee. The fine […]
When we last mentioned DaVita CEO Kent Thiry in this space, it was to talk about his arm-twisting efforts to convince the state legislature to implement new rules on Unaffiliated participation in partisan primaries — in a particular manner that best fit his questionable perception of how Proposition 108 should work in real life. Thiry is […]
“The best revenge is to be unlike him who performed the injury.” –Marcus Aurelius
THE WINNERS Rural Colorado After years of debate, a crisis over funding for rural hospitals and Medicaid recipients brought Republicans to the bargaining table to fix a small but important glitch that could have cost Colorado hundreds of millions of dollars. Thanks to a bipartisan compromise brokered by House Majority Leader KC Becker and Senate […]
Senator Cory Gardner (R-Yuma) has ascended to a leadership position in the U.S. Senate…but you wouldn’t know this based on his response to the blockbuster news on Tuesday that President Trump had fired FBI Director James Comey. Gardner is the Chair of the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC), making it his responsibility to make sure that Republicans maintain their Senate majority […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) On Sunday, May 7, 2017, Trump’s Deputy Assistant “Dr* Sebastian Gorka chatted with KVOR radio host Tron Simpson. I listened, and it raised several questions: Why was a top level Presidential appointee slumming on a right wing talk show in Colorado Springs? Is “*Dr.” Gorka still a part of the President’s […]
[mantra-pullquote align=”right” textalign=”left” width=”33%”]”I think the difference between what he wants and what we want is that we’re interested in elections and he’s just interested in getting elected.” — Deputy Secretary of State Suzanne Staiert (Denver Post, 5/1/17)[/mantra-pullquote] The Colorado legislative session will come to a close on Wednesday, but things are getting nasty in […]
The Denver Post’s John Aguilar reports on final passage of House Bill 17-1279, the hard-fought bipartisan compromise legislation to address developer concerns about liability for defects in the construction of new condominium developments. A compromise that builders are already declaring insufficient: Now that state lawmakers have passed the first measure in years to abate construction-related […]

When the summer, air conditioning will probably be one of the home appliances that most people are looking for. Cool breeze is very important to beat the heat and humid temperature during summer season. In this season, the AC is really going to work all day to make our stay comfortable when hot air. Generally, […]

With President Donald Trump’s first 100 days in the books, local Republicans are hoping to put their positive spin on what is generally agreed to be an historically unproductive start to Trump’s administration–here’s Sen. Ray Scott of Grand Junction putting his best face on Trump for the Colorado Springs Gazette: For a new president who […]
Actor Diane Guerrero meets immigrant taking refuge in church March For Science rally draws largest crowd downtown since Women’s March Garden of the Gods named one of country’s best attractions Update: After meeting with Sessions, Colorado gov thinks AG unlikely to crack down on marijuana Study: Colorado Drivers Really Aren’t That Bad Kiszla: Rockies’ hot […]
With a new Affordable Care Act repeal proposal making the rounds in Washington, D.C., all eyes in Colorado are on Rep. Mike Coffman–who made what is universally regarded as a major unforced error by announcing his support for the original “Trumpcare” bill just before it was killed by GOP leadership for lack of support. A […]
You’re probably aware that yesterday was April 20, a day that has become something of a quirky holiday around the world because of the popularity of marijuana (click here for more about how 4/20 became associated with marijuana use). For many Colorado residents, however, April 20 is a somber reminder of a different sort: The […]
A triumphant lowbrow culture-on-the-skids moment in the Oval Office yesterday, as former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin joined rock stars Ted Nugent and Kid Rock for a field trip to see their hero President Donald Trump: No word yet on whether the White House was graced with a performance of Nugent’s hit song Jailbait or the […]
As the Denver Business Journal’s Ed Sealover reports, a hammed-up drama that most ordinary people couldn’t care less about, the years-long campaign by condominium builders to shield themselves as much as possible from legal liability over defects in their construction, is nearing a possible solution after numerous fits and starts this session: After four years of failed negotiations, […]
Your deliberately oversimplified glance at what happened in Colorado this week. Hickenlooper signs law making it legal to save dogs from hot cars in Colorado Colorado Coal Country Turns to Solar Energy, Organic Farming Colorado Springs Special Olympics athletes celebrate big milestone Colorado’s Adams State signs first female football player to scholarship Mobile laundry truck […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) U.S. Rep. Doug Lamborn (R-CO Springs) told a conservative talk-radio host Monday that he’d “probably vote” to get rid of the Environmental Protection Agency, if he had the opportunity, even though he does not think it’s currently “in the cards to get rid of EPA completely.” “But right now, it’s not […]
Terrifyingly hilarious. That’s the best phrase we could come up with to explain a flurry of stories circulating this afternoon relating to Donald Trump’s ongoing realization that being President is actually a fairly difficult job. First, from CNN: If Donald Trump has learned any big lesson in his 84 days as President, it’s this: The job […]
Today, as you probably already know, Neil Gorsuch was sworn in to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court. Neil Gorsuch is from Colorado, but his record stands in opposition to the values we care about as Coloradans. Gorsuch’s confirmation is a disappointment, and we can only hope that the grave concerns Americans have expressed about […]
