(Promoted by Colorado Pols) In a radio interview last week, U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman (R-CO) said Democrats would love to exploit imagery of mass deportations of young immigrants. Asked by KHOW’s Ross Kaminsky how he thought Democrats would feel about Trump’s decision to end Obama’s DACA order, which allowed immigrants who came here as children […]
With former Congressman, presidential and once-and-future gubernatorial candidate Tom Tancredo making lots of news lately with his defense of Donald Trump’s immigration policies and criticism of “backsliding” Republicans growing afraid to see those policies carried out, an interview with Tancredo last week pummeling his successor in Congress Rep. Mike Coffman, and calling for Coffman’s ouster […]
UPDATE: Congressman Mike Coffman’s on-again, off-again support of DREAMERs is back on again. For now. I was pleased to introduce the Protect DREAMER Confidentiality Act with @RepBetoORourke today https://t.co/wCLD0g6c7k — Rep. Mike Coffman (@RepMikeCoffman) September 9, 2017 —– The Denver Post’s Mark Matthews reports–Rep. Mike Coffman got his headlines, and… Coffman no longer will press […]
With increasingly official word from the White House yesterday that President Donald Trump does indeed intend to rescind the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program created by President Barack Obama to protect undocumented immigrants who came to the United States as children from deportation, Republicans can be divided into two camps: those who enthusiastically […]
When a politician prepares to change jobs — either voluntarily or because of term limits — it can often create a ripple effect that extends several seats down the ballot in the next election. That’s exactly what may happen for Republicans if Attorney General Cynthia Coffman decides to run for Governor in 2018 instead of re-election. […]
Rep. Mike Coffman broke from conservative orthodox thinking last week when he stated that there’s “not taxpayer funding for abortion.” That may not sound like such a big deal to you, if you know that the 1976 Hyde Amendment bans federal funding for abortion, unless the life of the person having the baby is at risk–or […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Recall that Congressman Mike Coffman of Aurora promised to vote for the first House measure to kill Obamacare, a repeal-and-replace measure that would have taken away health insurance from millions of people. Then he voted against the second House repeal-and-replace bill, which also would have pushed millions off the health insurance rolls, […]
An eye-opening quote from Colorado’s own Rep. Mike Coffman in a Politico story today about the slow response from congressional Republican leadership to the deepening scandals besetting President Donald Trump’s administration: The controversy over Donald Trump’s relationship with Russia is mushrooming into an all-consuming Washington melodrama and full-fledged criminal investigation. But don’t look to GOP congressional […]
Quite the interview from CNN posted a short while ago, letting an obvious exasperated Rep. Mike Coffman of Colorado go off on President Donald Trump this afternoon in Washington after the biggest week of crisis of Trump’s short time in office: In an animated interview in the Speaker’s lobby Friday afternoon, Rep. Mike Coffman, a […]
Important news today from the Denver Post’s Bruce Finley, Gov. John Hickenlooper has come out against an appeal of an important recent court court decision obliging the Colorado Oil and Gas Conservation Commission to stop issuing drilling permits pending a review to ensure their activity doesn’t impact he environment, public health, or climate change: Colorado […]
(Uh, what? — Promoted by Colorado Pols) U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman (R-CO) wants a special prosecutor not only to dig into Russian interference in the last election but also to investigate the Obama Administration. In an appearance on a Denver radio station this morning, Coffman pointed out that an investigation by a special prosecutor could […]
UPDATE #3: Rep. Mike Coffman’s updated statement–we can now confirm he’s either a yes or a no. “Republicans promised to fix the Affordable Care Act mess, and we must. The current bill has a lot of strong elements — giving the states more flexibility is sound public policy. Colorado knows better than Washington, DC and […]
TUESDAY UPDATE: Concerns over the status of “pre-existing conditions” in the latest version of Trumpcare is costing Congressional Republicans the support of key moderates. From the Washington Post: The revamped Republican push for a sweeping overhaul of the nation’s health-care system ran into a new roadblock on Tuesday when a key lawmaker, Rep. Fred Upton (R-Mich.), […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) This is yet another story about Rep. Mike Coffman (R-CO) making a head-spinning change on a serious issue, acting as if no shift had occurred, and sliding by reporters who barely noticed or ignored it. This time it’s the evolution of Coffman’s stance on Russian meddling in the 2016 election. In […]
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 […]
(Joke’s on you! – Promoted by Colorado Pols) In contrast to his appearance Wednesday at a town hall meeting in Aurora, where he was reportedly “pummeled” by constituents and tried to distance himself from Trump, U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman (R-CO) praised the president and was “very well received” at a meeting of the North Suburban Republican […]
In the aftermath of yesterday’s brutal town hall starring perpetually embattled GOP Rep. Mike Coffman of Aurora, the Colorado Republican Party swung into action to denounce the “fake protesters” who “disrupted” the event, preventing “actual voters” from participating–this despite the fact that attendees had been carefully screened to allow only residents of Coffman’s congressional district to […]
Rep. Mike Coffman endured almost two hours of brutal questioning over his and Donald Trump’s agenda last night in Aurora, and mostly managed to keep his temper in check. But not entirely, as you can see in the video clip below from very near the end–which betrays how Coffman really felt about the folks who showed up: COFFMAN: The people […]
Last night’s raucous town hall held by Rep. Mike Coffman on the CU medical school campus in Aurora was by far the most intense grilling Coffman has ever faced from his constituents–certainly the most intense he has ever faced on live video. Although some media reports have focused on Coffman’s comment in response to the final […]
UPDATE #3: The Colorado Republican Party overshares its displeasure with those pesky voters: Disruptive fake protestors @RepMikeCoffman town hall. Coffman stood ground in a room of organized, left-wing activists. #Proud #CoPolitics — The Colorado GOP (@cologop) April 13, 2017 —– UPDATE #2: The Denver Post’s Brian Eason recaps a wild night for Rep. Mike Coffman: […]
As the Colorado Statesman’s Ernest Luning reports, the announcement yesterday that combat veteran and attorney Jason Crow will challenge longtime incumbent Rep. Mike Coffman in CD-6 next year set Coffman’s phalanx of defenders and surrogates into a full-scale round of nasty that didn’t come across well at all: A bipartisan organization that encourages veterans to […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Rep. Mike Coffman asks what outlet I'm from. I tell him Huffington Post. He refuses to talk to me and says I'm "not a legit journalist." — Matt Fuller (@MEPFuller) April 6, 2017 Huffington Post reporter Matt Fuller tweets this morning that U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman (R-CO) refused to talk to […]
As the dust settles from the crushing failure last Friday of the GOP’s attempt to “repeal and replace” the 2010 Affordable Care Act, one thing is becoming obvious in terms of the impact on Colorado Republicans–Rep. Mike Coffman of Aurora, famous for skating around the margins of controversial issues to preserve himself in difficult political times, […]
Colorado Attorney General Cynthia Coffman is almost certainly not running for governor in 2018, but she would really like it if you would pretend that she might. This is very, very lame… Also notable for #copolitics folks. Coffman also was in town for political meetings. “You know I am at least looking at governor,” she said. — Mark […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman (R-CO) is making conflicting statements on whether he wants to continue to give health insurance to the 400,000 Coloradans, including 14,000 in his district, who got health insurance under Obamacare’s expansion of Medicaid. This raises the familiar question with Coffman, Where does he really stand? If he […]
