Colorado Sues To Stop Trump’s Space Command Shenanigans

As Colorado Newsline’s Chase Woodruff reports, Attorney General Phil Weiser’s latest lawsuit against the Trump administration takes aim at the politically-motivated uprooting of the U.S. Space Command from its longtime home in Colorado Springs as a reward for political loyalty from the red state of Alabama: Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser is suing President Donald […]

2025 Government Shutdown Day 30 Open Thread

“All our best men are laughed at in this nightmare land.” –Jack Kerouac

Jeff Hurd Kisses The MAGA Ring, Exact Manner Of Prostration Unknown

As Ernest Luning reports for the Colorado Springs Gazette’s political blog formerly known as the Colorado Statesman, President Donald Trump has bestowed his blessing on freshman GOP Rep. Jeff Hurd in his primary contest against former Colorado GOP vice-chair and Caucasian cultural ambassador Hope Scheppelman to continue representing the Lauren Boebert-less Third Congressional District: “Colorado’s […]

Trump Cutting Off Food Stamp Funds: The Cruelty Is The Point

As Colorado Public Radio’s Caitlyn Kim reports, Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser has joined with almost two dozen other states filing suit against what they claim is an arbitrary decision by the Trump administration to up the stakes in the ongoing standoff that has shut down most of the federal government’s day-to-day operations, by halting […]

Fundraising for Governor Shows Huge Gap for GOP’s Kirkmeyer

Last week we dug through the campaign finance reports for major races in Colorado in 2026, and while we provided some brief analysis for every race, we thought it would be worthwhile to look a little closer at the top contest on the ballot: The open seat for Governor. Here’s how the fundraising numbers compare […]

Food Banks Start to Panic as Gabe Evans Shrugs

The “Gabe Evans Tour of Destruction” continues. If freshman Rep. Gabe Evans (R-Ft. Lupton) stops by your business/nonprofit for a photo op, it usually means that you are in deep trouble. Evans often shows up at local venues when a policy that he supported in Congress is going to cause major problems for said organization. […]

UPDATED: Who Raised What in Q3?

THURSDAY UPDATE: Wednesday was the deadline for most campaigns to submit Q3 (July – September) fundraising reports. The last fundraising quarter of the year is often much weaker for candidates because of the holiday season, so Q3 numbers can offer the best look at a campaign’s finances until early next year. We’ll run down the […]

Gabe Evans Tour of Destruction Update: Getting Worse At Weld Food Bank

Over the summer, America’s Most Vulnerable Incumbent™ Rep. Gabe Evans developed a routine of holding photo-ops at locations in his district that were directly affected by adverse votes Evans himself took, principally with the passage of the “We’re All Going To Die Act” federal budget bill, as well as retaliation by the Trump administration against […]

Stop Trying to Make “George Brauchler for Governor” Happen

Republican George Brauchler, the former Arapahoe County District Attorney turned radio host turned back into a District Attorney in a new district is making an effort to drum up interest [snort] in a potential run for Governor [guffaw] in 2026. A story from conservative “writer” Chris Dorsey was somehow published by Forbes magazine without anybody […]

Boebert’s Candidate for Governor Brings New Marxism to Colorado

The Republican field of candidates for a race they can’t possibly win continues to grow. The latest GOP contender to join the race for Governor in 2026 is Congresswoman Lauren Boebert’s handpicked candidate: A “ministry leader” named Victor Marx who seems to spend most of his time staring off contemplatively into the distance. In addition […]

Republicans Play Weakest Ever Shutdown Blame Game

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 […]

Republican Candidate For Governor Would Secede All Over Again

Back in 2022, GOP Sen. Barb Kirkmeyer was running for Congress in Colorado’s then brand-new and closely divided CO-08 with no apologies about one of the wackier points in her long record in elected office representing deep red Weld County, helping organize in 2013 a proposal for Weld and several other lightly-populated rural Colorado counties […]

Virginia Giuffre’s Brother Is Rep. Jeff Crank’s Constituent

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 […]

A Few More Words About That Bipartisan Criminal Competency Law

As 9NEWS’ Jeremy Jojola reports, there’s been a new development in an ongoing case out of Weld County that, since we discussed the political misuse of this case previously, we are obliged to also update: Two weeks after the release from jail of a man whom law enforcement called dangerous, that man is back in […]

“Both Ways Barb” Kirkmeyer Earns Her Nickname Again

State Senator Barb Kirkmeyer (R-Brighton), now a Republican candidate for Governor in 2026, has been dubbed “Both Ways Barb” for her tendency to offer conflicting opinions on a variety of subjects. Kirkmeyer showed again recently how a selective memory of her own political and policy positions continues to get her in trouble. In a recent […]

“Chainsaw Caucus” Launches Wildly Racist Attack On Local News Site

On Monday, our friends at the Colorado Times Recorder put out a story detailing some decidedly non-mainstream views held by the Colorado Libertarian Party’s Secretary and 2026 Secretary of State candidate James Wiley regarding the recent assassination of right-wing activist Charlie Kirk–alleging and then apparently standing by under pressure his belief that Kirk was killed […]

New Ad Campaign Wallops Gabe Evans On Trump Tariffs

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, […]

Donald Trump Hates You

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 […]

Republicans Unleash Friendly Fire While Spinning Latest “Crimenado”

This week, as CBS4 Denver’s Republican-friendly political correspondent Shaun Boyd reports, three out of the four Republican members of the state’s congressional delegation sent a letter to Gov. Jared Polis, accompanied by a Zoom press call last night, blasting Colorado Democrats for their supposed “soft on crime” policies, and calling for a second special session […]

Jimmy Kimmel Shutdown Directly Related to Potential 9News Sale

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 […]

Acts Of Gun Violence Bring News Cycle To Swift Halt

UPDATE: Deseret News reporting that conservative activist Charlie Kirk has died after being shot today at Utah Valley University. —– We are monitoring two separate tragic storylines involving gun violence this afternoon, the first out of Orem, Utah, where conservative activist Charlie Kirk of Turning Point USA was shot and severely wounded today before thousands […]

New Epstein Estate Trump Disclosures Test MAGA Faithful Gullibility

As NBC News reports, yesterday was a pretty bad day for Republicans wishing along with President Donald Trump that the unrelenting controversy over the case of deceased pedophile billionaire and former close friend of Trump Jeffrey Epstein would have subsided over the long August congressional recess. It didn’t, and it’s getting worse by the minute: […]

Gov. Polis Rejects Tina Peters Quid Pro Quo: “Justice Is Not For Sale”

NEW: Gov Jared Polis (D) tells me he won't free President Trump's ally Tina Peters from prison to prevent more retaliation like Trump's removal of Space Command from Colorado.

Spite: The Real Reason Trump is Moving Space Command to Alabama

UPDATE: The Denver Post editorial board comes to the same conclusion: Trump isn’t the first president to make a politically motivated decision like this, but he is the first to gloat openly about using his power to punish a state for not supporting his re-election. The message the president is sending is clear — get […]
