As the Colorado Sun’s Jason Blevins reports, the first few days of Joe Biden’s presidency have included bold steps on the locally contentious issue of oil and gas drilling, the biggest of which (so far) is a 60-day moratorium on new drilling permits for federal lands: Conservationists are cheering the Biden administration’s 60-day pause on […]
A nascent campaign in conservative Weld County to secede from the state of Colorado and join our northern neighbor of Wyoming–which would result in an interesting new shape for that formerly square state–is reportedly set to kick off next week: Here is the petition. We will have the signatures pages printed next week and can […]
As CNN reports, Senate Republicans are in a really bad place amid news that articles of impeachment against former President Trump will be delivered to the Senate on Monday: CNN has learned that dozens of influential Republicans around Washington — including former top Trump administration officials — have been quietly lobbying GOP members of Congress […]

As the Denver Post’s Elizabeth Hernandez reports, John Eastman, the University of Colorado’s “Visiting Scholar in Conservative Thought and Policy” who helped incite the January 6th insurrection at the U.S. Capitol after playing a major role in Donald Trump’s failed post-election legal challenges, has been stripped of any official duties for the remainder of his […]
UPDATE #2: This would seem to confirm that Rep. Boebert is indeed strolling around on the House floor with a handgun. If Members of Congress won’t take a stand for our Constitutional rights in DC, you can bet they won’t take a stand back at home either. https://t.co/PRmVNrSEDP — Lauren Boebert (@laurenboebert) January 21, 2021 —– […]
Since upstart Republican congressional candidate Lauren Boebert shocked the Colorado Republican political world and then the nation by ousting a five-term incumbent in the GOP primary and holding on to the safe-ish GOP seat against an underpowered Democratic opponent in the general election, the growing controversy her fringe politics and sketchy personal background have caused […]

Rep. Ken Buck, outgoing chairman of the Colorado Republican Party, angered a broad swath of party faithful by acknowledging Joe Biden’s victory over Donald Trump after the Electoral College did its thing on December 14, and going to significant lengths to debunk the baseless allegations about Colorado’s election system that also underpinned Trump’s bogus claims […]
As The Washington Post reports: President-elect Joe Biden is preparing to sign a blizzard of executive orders as soon as he is inaugurated Wednesday that will lay out his coronavirus, immigration and climate policies — launching a 10-day cascade of administrative actions aimed at reversing the policies of his Republican predecessor. The most pressing of […]
UPDATE 10:00AM MST: Reflect with us as four years no American will ever forget come to a close. Not a moment too soon.
UPDATE: Via The Washington Post: —– In with the new.
The Colorado Springs Gazette reported Friday on a mystery that emerged last week surrounding newly sworn-in Republican Rep. Ron Hanks, who disappeared after the first day of last week’s abbreviated opening of the Colorado General Assembly and hasn’t been seen since: The Penrose Republican missed every vote on all seven bills that went through the […]

(How to win friends and influence people – Promoted by Colorado Pols) I’ve been loosely documenting the complaints against journalists from top elected officials in Colorado for years, and guess who just made the nastiest comment yet (in public, that is)? U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO). How’d you know? Here’s what Boebert said about respected […]
UPDATE #2: Rep. Lauren Boebert denies Rep. Steve Cohen’s allegation that he saw Boebert with a “large group” in the tunnels under the Capitol, expanding her previous denials to say flatly “I did not give any tours between Jan 3rd and 6th.” Only one of them is telling the truth, and there is an investigation […]
Colorado Public Radio’s Megan Verlee reports that despite what you may have been told to expect, the revolution did not begin yesterday either: A smattering of people collected on the steps of Colorado’s Capitol on Sunday, a far cry from the massive, potentially violent protests federal and state authorities had braced for. A woman held […]
We awoke this morning to another hard-hitting story targeting Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado in national media, the cantankerous freshman from Rifle who has in less than two weeks in office managed to scare the hell out of her new colleagues and deepen urgent questions about security at the U.S. Capitol. A lot of the […]

The Washington Post reports today, the word from the Trump administration earlier in the week that a “reserve” of COVID-19 vaccine doses would be released to the states under expedited new guidelines designed to get more Americans vaccinated faster, which had spurred hopes that the vaccine logjam would finally ease up, was in error: When […]
Earlier this week we noted an interview for The Get More Smarter Podcast with Rep. Jason Crow (D-Aurora). In the interview with hosts Jason Bane and Ian Silverii, Crow discussed the events of January 6; his confrontation with a fellow House Member the morning before the attack; how Crow explains last week’s events to his […]
The Denver Post’s Conrad Swanson follows up on yesterday’s odd suspension and then un-suspension of Rep. Lauren Boebert’s Twitter account, reported by Boebert herself via Instagram to be a week-long suspension but mysteriously lifted by the afternoon: Twitter officials temporarily barred Colorado’s newly elected Republican Rep. Lauren Boebert on Wednesday from tweeting after she spread […]

As the investigation into last week’s deadly insurrection at the U.S. Capitol continues, two Colorado residents have been arrested and charged with federal crimes in relation to the violence. One is a gold medal Olympian relay swimmer living in Colorado Springs, and as the Denver Post’s Sam Tabachnik reports, he’s done selling houses too: Klete […]
UPDATE #2: We are duty bound to report that the once-weeklong suspension of Rep. Lauren Boebert’s Twitter account has been lifted: Twitter randomly shut my account down with no explanation. They do this to thousands of conservatives every single day. When the press reported the ban, it was lifted. What about the thousands of Americans […]
