The re-election campaign for President Trump seems to be having trouble raising more money than it spends these days. As The Associated Press reported, Democratic Presidential candidate Joe Biden is outspending Trump by a 10-to-1 margin on political advertising. The Trump campaign made it known on Monday that it is preparing to go on TV […]
We don’t want to spoil the ending, so read this quote and then click to see who said these words in response to a question about when/if Congress will finally approve another coronavirus stimulus package: Well, you know, I think it needs to have additional assistance to individuals and this additional assistance to businesses and […]
Here’s a clip from Fox News Channel prime-time propagandist Laura Ingraham’s interview of President Donald Trump, which aired last night. Although this video is being widely scrutinized today for its many baffling and outrageous moments, such as the “plane loaded with thugs” Trump claims evidence-free was headed to Washington to bust up his superspreader event […]

A new TV spot began running today across Colorado from Sen. Cory Gardner’s re-election campaign, and it’s all about one thing: Watching this ad, you might get the idea that Cory Gardner played some kind of particular role in the passage of “forgivable loans for small businesses,” which was a component of the CARES Act […]
Like these alerts? Click here to subscribe. Of all the crazy misinformation that’s come out since Donald Trump became President, the “QAnon” conspiracy theory is one of the wildest pieces of fiction you’ll ever hear. These are Trump supporters who believe a secret struggle is raging behind the scenes of reality, and that only Trump, […]
Last week, Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers called a special legislative session so that state lawmakers could get together and discuss potential law enforcement reforms in the wake of the shooting of Jacob Blake in Kenosha, WI. As The Cap Times of Madison reports, lawmakers did indeed convene today…for less than a minute: As Democrats urged […]
Military Times’ Leo Shane III reports that President Donald Trump is shattering yet another time-honored convention, and this is one Republicans might not appreciate as much: the once predictable support of active-duty servicemen for conservative Republican candidates: The latest Military Times poll shows a continued decline in active-duty service members’ views of President Donald Trump […]
As Ernest Luning reports for the publication formerly known as the Colorado Statesman, Democrat Diane Mitsch Bush has been elevated by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) to its “Red to Blue” list: Diane Mitsch Bush, the Democratic nominee in Colorado’s 3rd Congressional District, has been added to the House Democrats’ program for top-tier challengers […]
If you know the name Jim Welker and his history in Colorado Republican politics, our compliments–you’re among a select group of people. And it’s not an accident that you haven’t heard of him if you haven’t, since former Rep. Jim Welker of Loveland back in 2006 helped wreck the Republican brand in this state ahead […]
Via the Colorado GOP, from state party chairman Rep. Ken Buck and CD-3 GOP nominee Lauren “Q*bert” Boebert’s tour of the Western Slope yesterday: Check out the extremely professional T-shirt Chairman Buck is wearing: From our examination of the released photos, Buck’s shirt may have expressed a desire to “kill ’em all” and “let God […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) University of Colorado visiting scholar John Eastman landed in the national spotlight last week after speculating in a Newsweek op-ed that Democratic vice presidential candidate Kamala Harris might not be eligible to serve as vice president because her parents were possibly temporary visitors at the time of Harris’ birth. Eastman, who’s […]
We don’t have to tell you that 2020 has been a very strange year filled with very odd news stories. It’s hard to get surprised by anything anymore, but sometimes it still happens. Like today, for example. As Justin Wingerter reports for The Denver Post, the Loveland-based National Foundation for Gun Rights (which is associated […]
We did an honest-to-Pete spit take when we saw this photo a short while ago from Westword’s Conor McCormick-Cavanagh: Just spotted this tour bus in the Globeville neighborhood pic.twitter.com/nFF5fX6rE5 — Conor McCormick-Cavanagh (@ConorMichael28) August 28, 2020 That’s right, folks–there is apparently a bus rolling through Denver today for something called the “I’m a Trumpster 2020 […]
As the Aurora Sentinel’s Grant Stringer reports: A former Aurora city lawmaker joined a coterie of ex-Republicans Thursday urging conservatives to ditch President Donald Trump and instead vote for Democrats Joe Biden and Kamala Harris in November. Former Aurora city Councilmember Barbara Cleland and former Arapahoe County Commissioner John Brackney — both longtime Republicans before […]
The Republican National Qonvention finally wrapped up a bizarre week on Thursday evening with the actual President of the United States accepting his party’s nomination for a second term from the South Lawn of the White House. In a rambling, hour-long listing of grievances speech, President Trump described a utopian America in which everything is […]
As the Republican National Convention got going this week, as readers know, Sen. Cory Gardner wasn’t in attendance–but in a remote interview with CBS4’s Shaun Boyd on Monday from his home in Yuma, Gardner still had plenty to say: “I’ve never spoken at a convention before and I don’t think anybody would want to listen […]
Justin Wingerter of The Denver Post has more on a long list of criminal offenses and general disregard for law enforcement associated with CO-3 Republican candidate Lauren “Q*Bert” Boebert: Congressional candidate Lauren Boebert — who often espouses a pro-police, law-and-order message on the campaign trail — has been arrested and summonsed at least four times […]
Last night, CBS4 political reporter Shaun Boyd interviewed one of the leading figures in the Republican/Evangelical Christian alliance that has dominated Colorado Republican politics for decades with even more tenacity than the all-powerful gun lobby–Jeff Hunt, director of the Centennial Institute, the political machination arm of the extremely well-funded Colorado Christian University. If you didn’t […]

Colorado House Minority Leader Patrick Neville announced his intention to file a lawsuit against Gov. Jared Polis’ statewide mask order over a month ago, and as the Denver Post’s Saja Hindi reports, Neville intends to file this week after a month of we have no reason to assume was not very successful fundraising: Colorado House […]
Congressman Doug Lamborn (R-Colorado Springs) is finishing up his seventh term in the House of Representatives. He will almost certainly be re-elected for an eighth term in November. Because CO-5 has long been centered in the conservative city of Colorado Springs, winning a Republican Primary is pretty much the whole enchilada (just like winning a […]
Chase Woodruff reports for Colorado Newsline, who we hope you’ve included in your daily news browsing: Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet and all 47 of his Democratic colleagues in the U.S. Senate are urging the removal of William Perry Pendley from his leadership post at the Bureau of Land Management, following the Trump administration’s decision to […]
Senator Cory Gardner (R-Yuma) is up with a new re-election ad today that probably won’t do much to alter his seemingly-inevitable path to defeat at the hands of former Gov. John Hickenloooper. Gardner’s latest TV spot, which you can view below, continues on his 2020 theme of commercials that are, frankly, pretty dumb. In this […]
As Jon Murray reports for The Denver Post: Noted: A PPP poll sponsored by @GiffordsCourage found @hickenlooper leading @CoryGardner 51%-42% (+9), with 7% undecided, among a sample of 731 voters. #copoliticshttps://t.co/BSzZdld5KT — Jon Murray (@JonMurray) August 25, 2020 These are pretty consistent numbers for Hickenlooper that track with what we’ve been hearing on the race.
