The Colorado Republican Party is nothing if not utterly and hopelessly predictable. As Ernest Luning reports for the publication formerly known as the Colorado Statesman, the state party that POLITICO once said “would rather lose than change” is once again wrapped around its own axle: For the second time in as many years, a group […]
It’s the economy, stupid. That infamous line from Bill Clinton’s 1992 Presidential campaign is as relevant today as it was more than 30 years ago. As Seth Klamann reports for The Denver Post, the economy and affordability remain the most important issues for Colorado’s Latino community — even in the midst of unprecedented immigration raids […]
As 9NEWS’ Kyle Clark reported on Friday, the Trump administration’s goal of freeing the last incarcerated co-conspirator in once-and-again President Donald Trump’s failed quest to prove the 2020 presidential election he lost was decided unfairly shifted gears, with a formal request from the Justice Department for ex-Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters to be transferred to […]
Buried at the bottom of yesterday’s Unaffiliated newsletter from the Colorado Sun is an item Democratic insiders have been anticipating for some weeks, rumblings of an impending primary campaign challenging incumbent Democratic Sen. John Hickenlooper: Annie Orloff, managing partner at the Democratic political consulting firm the MAC Group, posted job descriptions on LinkedIn over the […]
Welp, there’s a headline we didn’t expect to see on this here website. But it is absolutely warranted for Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Windsor). President Trump and staffers tried not once…not twice…but thrice to convince Boebert to take her name off of a discharge petition that would force a vote in the House of Representatives on […]
Colorado Public Radio’s health policy reporter John Daley with the latest way the Trump administration is looking to undo crucial protections you enjoy not only as an American, but as a Coloradan–an example of the convenient flexibility of the Tenth Amendment for Republicans when it stands athwart well-monied special interests: The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau […]
As 9NEWS’ Jaleesa Irizarry reports, now that the federal government has re-opened without a deal to extend the health insurance premium tax credits that make coverage affordable for millions of Americans, negotiations over such an extension which in theory has enough bipartisan support to easily pass are getting underway. With Republicans aware they now have […]
Republicans lost damn near every race they contested in the 2025 election. Some in the GOP aren’t wasting time looking for somewhere else to fail in 2026. Aurora City Council member Danielle Jurinsky was one of the more notable losers from the 2025 election cycle. The nutball MAGA incumbent needed to be one of the […]
President Trump is totally not worried about the release of more information related to the Epstein files, so he and the White House are doing what totally not-worried people do in this situation… They’re freaking the fuck out. As we noted earlier today, Democrats released new information related to deceased billionaire pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, including […]
Denver7’s Dan Grossman reports on a new proposal from the Trump administration that they claim is intended to alleviate the nationwide housing affordability crisis in which our state is unfortunately a leading indicator. But the solution Trump is proposing sounds like heartbreaking news for everyone except mortgage lenders: The Trump administration is working on a […]
In Donald Trump’s first Presidential administration, he was often mocked for regularly claiming that the White House was two weeks away from unveiling a health care plan that would be cheaper and more effective and better tasting than the Affordable Care Act (ACA). During the 2024 Presidential election, Trump took that idea to a new […]
As Politico’s Kyle Cheney reports, Donald Trump’s quest to rewrite the sordid history of the 2020 presidential elections into martyrdom for himself and co-conspirators who abbeted his two-month temper tantrum over losing his bid for re-election took another step forward with pardons issued to a variety of marginal figures, including names Coloradans will recognize: President […]
As the Washington Post reports, and if you’re plugged into political news at all you’ve most likely already formed a strong opinion about: Seven Democrats and an independent senator who caucuses with them split with their party to vote for a deal that would pave the way to ending the longest government shutdown in U.S. […]
(Who in their right mind would loan “MyPillow Guy” money? Oh, wait. — Republished under Creative Commons license by Colorado Pols) by Chase Woodruff, Colorado Newsline November 5, 2025 Far-right Colorado podcaster Joe Oltmann is suing MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell, a onetime ally in the national election conspiracy theory movement, alleging Lindell breached the terms […]
For the past ten days, a significant controversy has been brewing in the southwest Colorado town of Durango over an arrest by federal immigration agents of a father and his two school-age children on their way to class, an incident that provoked large protests and reported instances of violence against demonstrators, as well as allegations […]
As The Washington Post reports, Republicans across the country are still trying to understand how the 2025 elections went so horribly wrong for the party in control of Congress and the White House: Republicans are reeling after Democrats swept off-year races in several blue and purple states across the country on Tuesday, blaring a warning […]
The federal government shutdown is now officially the longest in U.S. history (surpassing the 2018-19 shutdown also under President Trump’s watch). After Tuesday’s massive election victories, Democrats have new reason to stick to their shutdown narrative about holding the line until Affordable Care Act subsidies are renewed. Republicans, meanwhile, have a new set of terrible […]
Assessing Tuesday’s unexpectedly historic off-year elections as the final results trickle in, one of the biggest shock victories for Democrats in Colorado is what appears to be the dismantlement of Aurora Mayor and former GOP Congressman Mike Coffman’s carefully and expensively crafted Republican-in-all-but-name majority on the Aurora City Council. If the results hold giving Democrats […]
Whoa. No, seriously: WHOA! It would be hard to overstate how bigly Democrats won on Tuesday, both here in Colorado and throughout the country, but we’re going to try! The 2025 election was a MASSIVE repudiation of all things MAGA and Donald Trump that should send shivers down the spine of every Republican running for […]
As the reckoning following yesterday’s momentous off-year elections in which Democrats triumphed at all levels of the ballot in contests large and small across the country in a broader referendum against the first chaotic months of the second Donald Trump presidency gets underway today, there is perhaps no Republican in the state of Colorado feeling […]
The ongoing federal government shutdown will take its place as the longest in U.S. history this week, surpassing the 2018-19 shutdown (also under President Trump) that only ended after Trump caved on demands for Congress to fund a wall along the southern border. Americans have largely blamed Republicans for the shutdown since the beginning; those […]
Colorado’s one-woman cacaphony of controversy Rep. Lauren Boebert’s whole schtick, or at least a large percentage of it, is goading into outrage anyone even slightly to her left with as wild a display of offensive tropes as she can muster with the available props. It’s a race to the cultural bottom we try not to […]
31 days and counting into the shutdown of the federal government that began and continues with a standoff over funding for health insurance premium subsidies under the Affordable Care Act that millions of Americans rely on to afford their coverage, the mission for Democrats today is to stay focused on this crucial objective while the […]
(The drama llama strikes the House GOP mini-minority once again — Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder Colorado state Rep. Stephanie Luck (R-Penrose) will not run for reelection next year. Speaking at the Fremont County GOP monthly meeting last night, Luck cited the need to spend more time with her […]
The federal government shutdown is already the second-longest in U.S. history. It appears almost certain that we will shatter the 2018-19 record of 34 days before Republicans and President Trump finally realize that the majority of Americans blame them for shuttering government services and doubling their health insurance premiums. As The Hill newspaper reports, reality is […]
