MONDAY UPDATE: Since our original post on Friday below, the story of the Department of Homeland Security’s list of so-called “sanctuary jurisdictions,” originally released chock full of amateur mistakes, turned farcical as numerous Republicans raced to have locations represented by themselves removed from the list like Aurora city councillor Danielle Jurinsky took credit for achieving […]
We like everyone else are watching for new information on yesterday’s apparent terror attack on a group walking down Boulder’s Pearl Street Mall as part of a demonstration in support of Israeli hostages held by Hamas in Gaza.

As AP’s Colleen Slevin reports via the Durango Herald, a gentleman from Cortez with the eminently Colorado name Teak Ty Brockbank was sentenced yesterday to three years in the federal pokey after making conpiracy theory-inspired death threats against Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold that contained the requisite specificity to go beyond free speech (here’s […]
Perhaps DOGE fired all of the copy editors in the federal government. On Thursday, the Department of Health and Human Services under Robert F. Kennedy Jr. released a “MAHA Health Report” that White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt called “one of the most transformative health reports that has ever been released by the federal government.” […]
This morning on the steps of the Colorado State Capitol in the heart of uber-liberal downtown Denver, as CBS Denver reports and other outlets are expected to follow, America’s Most Vulnerable Republican™ freshman GOP Rep.

President Trump’s on-again, off-again Tariff War took a jarring set of turns in the last 24 hours. As The Washington Post explains, Trump’s tariffs are back on again — at least for now — after a judge ruled them to be unconstitutional on Wednesday: The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit said Thursday […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder ‘Free Tina Peters’ has been a rallying cry for the right-wing in Colorado even before Donald Trump’s May 5 post. In the wake of the president’s vehement support, various figures are claiming that they are responsible for the federal government’s attempt to circumvent state […]

Following last week’s passage in the U.S. House by a single vote of 215-214 of the so-called “Big Beautiful Bill” to slash funding for Medicaid and SNAP food assistance in order to pay for tax cuts to benefit the wealthiest Americans, GOP freshman Rep. Jeff Hurd of Grand Junction, whose district is home to the […]
Congressman Gabe Evans (R-Ft. Morgan) was already in political trouble before he voted for last week’s House Republican budget that seeks to gut Medicaid and SNAP benefits; expand the national debt by at least $2.4 trillion; likely cripple Medicare spending; AND allow President Trump and his administration a neat way to avoid the Judicial Branch […]

Denver7’s Shannon Ogden has a story that will kick your Memorial Day weekend off right–and by right, we mean with a healthy fresh dose of cynicism and dismay over the latest manifestation of MAGA “cultural revolution” brought to you by the Trump administration: Interior Secretary Doug Burgum has ordered all national parks to post signs […]
With millions of Americans getting ready to hop on planes to travel for the long holiday weekend, Denver7’s investigative team, who was first to report on an alarming two-minute blackout of communications between air traffic controllers at the Denver ATC center in Longmont and almost two dozen planes in and around Denver International Airport, spoke […]
UPDATE: America’s Most Vulnerable Republican™ Rep. Gabe Evans hugs the big bad budget bill he helped craft with both loving arms: U.S. Congressman Gabe Evans today issued the following statement after voting to pass the “One Big Beautiful Bill,” legislation that delivers resources to secure the border, invests in national defense, unleashes domestic energy, avoids […]

Rocky Mountain Gun Owners, which bills itself as the state’s largest “no compromise” gun rights organization, has for many years built a reputation for spending much more of its time attacking Republican lawmakers who are at least nominally on their side than going after Democratic lawmakers who have actually been responsible for introducing and passing […]
House Republicans continue to push forward with a massive budget proposal that would fund President Trump’s tax cuts for rich people largely by gutting Medicaid and other critical government programs such as SNAP (food stamps). Over the weekend, House Republicans hammered through a (potential) resolution that satisfied most hard-right conservatives, though negotiations continue as House […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder Family medicine physician Lauren Hughes has a simple request of U.S. Congressman Gabe Evans: “It doesn’t have to be this way … [You don’t] have to keep supporting Medicaid cuts.” Dr. Hughes works at a nonprofit health center in Fort Lupton, a small rural […]

As Ernest Luning reports for the Colorado Springs Gazette’s political blog, America’s Most Vulnerable Republican™ Rep. Gabe Evans is getting a new Democratic challenger today who just might be the candidate who makes Evans a one-term congressman: longtime state Rep. Shannon Bird of Westminster, a member of powerful Joint Budget Committee, who says she has […]
We wrote last Thursday about freshman GOP Rep.
