Rep.-elect Lauren Boebert, as usual, has got it all figured out: If you count the same votes over and over you’ll get the same results. We need to do signature verifications and uncover what went on with the algorithms. — Lauren Boebert (@laurenboebert) November 24, 2020 Boebert is of course right about counting the same […]
We’re obliged to note this report in the New York Times, though we’re not ready to take it to the bank: [Republican Party chair Ronna Romney] McDaniel, a Michigan native, has a gilded political pedigree: She is the niece of Senator Mitt Romney of Utah and the granddaughter of George Romney, a three-term Michigan governor. […]
As Erik Maulbetsch reports for The Colorado Times Recorder, the Jefferson County Republican Party is mad as hell and they’re not going to pretend to be doing nothing anymore. Instead, they are going to pretend to do something that doesn’t mean anything. So there! From The Times Recorder: The Jefferson County Republican Party announced on […]
UPDATE: As CNN reports, it just…might…really…be finally over: The General Services Administration has informed President-elect Joe Biden that the Trump administration is ready to begin the formal transition process, according to a letter from Administrator Emily Murphy sent Monday afternoon and obtained by CNN. The letter is the first step the administration has taken to […]
Republican Lauren “Q*Bert” Boebert was elected earlier this month in CO-03 with a fairly simple strategy. She apparently sees no reason to alter that approach now that she is Congresswoman-elect Q*Bert. As The Associated Press reports, Boebert has asked permission to bring her sidearm to the U.S. Capitol on a daily basis: Boebert asked Capitol […]
9NEWS’ Dacia Johnson reports, former GOP Gov. Bill Owens checks in somewhere in the middle of the pack of Republican officials and alumni breaking the news to President Donald Trump that his dead-ender quest to overturn the unambiguous result of the 2020 election is over: A former Colorado Republican governor is asking President Donald Trump […]
AP reports via the Denver Post that Kyle Rittenhouse, a minor accused of killing two people after crossing from his native Illinois into the state of Wisconsin with an assault rifle during riots over police violence in Kenosha last August, is out on bail: A 17-year-old from Illinois who is charged with killing two people […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) After joining a news conference yesterday with Rudolph Giuliani claiming without evidence that widespread fraud undermined November’s presidential election, Trump’s legal advisor Jenna Ellis jumped on a Denver conservative radio show and alleged, again with no evidence, that Colorado-based voting machine firm may have committed fraud to give victories to losing […]
As readers know, Gov. Jared Polis and public health officials across the state and nation are begging Americans to avoid multi-household gatherings this Thanksgiving as the COVID-19 pandemic rages unchecked and hospitals fill to capacity much, much too early in the season. But Republican Rep. Mark Baisley of Douglas County, who you might remember from […]
Today, former NYC Mayor Rudy Giuliani and leading Donald Trump campaign attorney Jenna Ellis hosted a press conference detailing what Trump billed earlier today is his “very clear an viable path to victory.” Giuliani has a simpler way of describing it: Giuliani is explicitly saying that Trump’s goal is to “overturn the election” pic.twitter.com/U2osm6qiC5 — […]
The former Chief of Staff for the Republican House caucus issued a terse press release on Wednesday announcing his resignation. That Jim Pfaff felt he was important enough to send out a press release about his employment is a different topic altogether, but the content of Pfaff’s missive is another striking reminder that Colorado Republicans […]
Trolling the interwebs today, we ran across something that will make you laugh, or not, probably not, or maybe laugh just for a moment before you get angry relative to your personal experience with the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic: “The Governor Made Me Wear This Mask!” Are you not amused? Colorado Senate GOP Minority spokesman […]

After nearly two weeks of trying, a reporter finally got outgoing Sen. Cory Gardner to utter words in response to the terminal crisis of Donald Trump’s out-of-control presidency–Trump’s refusal to acknowledge the results of an election that no reasonable observer has found any reason to question the results of. Free of the obligation to defend […]
As the Denver Post’s Alex Burness reports: Colorado state lawmakers are preparing for Gov. Jared Polis to call a special session focused on COVID-19 relief. Top Democratic officials in both chambers of the statehouse say they and the Democratic governor’s office have been in talks for weeks on a possible special session, and that the […]

(Slow heavy metal music playing – Promoted by Colorado Pols) Speaking on a conservative podcast last week, a former Republican congressional candidate said former Colorado Secretary of State Scott Gessler will be the next state GOP chair because “you can’t beat somebody with nobody.” No one will run against Gessler because “there is no value […]
As promised when the so-called “Dethrone Polis 2020” campaign announced Friday that they would not be turning in the required 630,000+ valid voter signatures to qualify a recall question for a future special election ballot, here’s the “request” by a lawyer purporting to represent the campaign asking for a 90-day extension of the collection period, […]
AP via CBS4 Denver reports on Rep.-elect Lauren Boebert’s big weekend in Washington, D.C. at the Million MAGA March rally to celebrate in denial of President Donald Trump’s glorious victory resounding defeat at the polls almost two weeks ago: Fervent supporters of President Donald Trump rallied in Washington on Saturday behind his spurious claim of […]
As the Grand Junction Daily Sentinel reports: Another two COVID-19 patients have been hospitalized in Mesa County for a total of 36 county residents… Positive COVID-19 tests jumped another 183 cases, according to the county health department. In the past two weeks alone, Mesa County has recorded 1,594 positive cases. That figure accounts for more […]
FRIDAY PM UPDATE: #Fail. Translation: they’re not turning in signatures. Because they don’t have the signatures. Every time they said they were on track to get the signatures, they were lying. This was, as we expected and as was the first Recall Polis campaign, a waste of everyone’s valuable time. The faithful are, needless to […]
The State of Georgia was finally called for Democrat Joe Biden today, which means the final 2020 Electoral Map looks like this: The coloring looks a little different, but the margin is the exact same as it was in 2016 (only, you know, the other way around):
This week on The Get More Smarter Podcast, hosts Jason Bane and Ian Silverii talk with Professor Seth Masket, Director of the Center for American Politics at the University of Denver, about the 2020 election results and his new book, “Learning from Loss: The Democrats, 2016-2020.” Masket’s book analyzes how and why Democrats ended up […]
President Donald Trump’s all-caps rage Tweet went out to his 88 million followers yesterday: “REPORT: DOMINION DELETED 2.7 MILLION TRUMP VOTES NATIONWIDE.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy got his first official taste of what it will be like to be constantly answering questions about House Republicans — including Rep-elect Lauren “Q*Bert” Boebert” — who are QAnon conspiracy enthusiasts. As The Washington Post explains: House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) on Thursday defended two incoming Republican congresswomen who […]
