Republican Rep. Doug Lamborn (R-Colorado Springs) is widely regarded as one of the dimmest bulbs in Congress, and he regularly takes the opportunity to confirm his idiocy lest anyone forget. He did it again today: If the $3 trillion dollar price tag on Pelosi’s radical wishlist were not enough, she is also trying to release […]
This week started with lots of news about C&C Breakfast and Korean Kitchen in Castle Rock, which opened up its doors for Sunday brunch and welcomed a swarm of unmasked social distancing deniers encouraged onward by folks such as House Minority Leader Patrick Neville. The Tri-County Health Department and the State of Colorado cracked down […]
UPDATE: Colorado Democrats give this ad two thumbs down: “Senator Gardner’s deceptive ads won’t change the fact that he’s stood by President Trump 100 percent of the time as they’ve played political games with lifesaving medical supplies and tried to yank health care coverage away from Coloradans when we need it most,” said Colorado Democratic […]
We wrote yesterday about the reopening of the Shooters Gill in Rifle by owner and Republican CD-3 congressional challenger Lauren Boebert, vowing “I’m not going to let the government tell me what to do” and resuming her lunch service of chicken tenders with a side of armed wait staff. KJCT-TV Grand Junction reports that Boebert […]
AP reports today that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell will oppose the HEROES Act, the latest round of coronavirus relief legislation set to pass the U.S. House tomorrow: Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Thursday branded House Democrats’ $3 trillion economic relief bill a “totally unserious effort” to address the coronavirus pandemic, underscoring the deep […]
The Grand Junction Sentinel’s Charles Ashby updates on the developing scandal over Colorado GOP Chairman Ken Buck’s management of the COVID-addled 2020 assemblies, the apparent fudging of the results of which is threatening to plunge an already beleaguered party facing another round of destruction at the polls in November into even more intraparty chaos: The […]
Colorado Public Radio’s Caitlyn Kim kicks off our coverage recap of yesterday’s visit by Gov. Jared Polis to the White House, which appears to have been successful for the state in terms of obtaining supplies to respond to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic–an issue deep in political subtext for President Donald Trump, Sen. Cory Gardner, and […]
(It would be cool if Brauchler spent this much time on his real job — Promoted by Colorado Pols) In a proposal that one health expert is calling a “sad” illustration of how the response to the pandemic is being converted into a “partisan issue,” Arapahoe County area District Attorney George Brauchler is urging lawmakers […]
Here’s a recent Facebook post by Colorado House Minority Chief of Staff Jim Pfaff. Pfaff wants you to watch a video that’s been circulating in far-right conspiracy forums of all kinds for a number of weeks now, called Plandemic–which asserts that the ongoing COVID-19 global disease outbreak is, like the Trilaterial Commission, the Masked Singer, […]
Brad Bunn and his fellow organizers were hoping for an overwhelming show of force, enough to prevent police from enforcing the law for fear of a massive gun battle. Thanks to the FBI and Larimer County, Colorado, Sheriff’s deputies, neither Bunn nor other openly-armed protesters made it to the Capitol. Bunn had advocated for […]
As the Greeley Tribune’s Cuyler Meade reports–voting against every coronavirus relief bill, sometimes almost alone, slamming stay-at-home orders to slow the pandemic while deaths from COVID-19 skyrocketed in his home Weld County, mocking basic best practices like wearing masks and avoiding mass gatherings, and plenty more examples of outrageous irresponsibility we didn’t even bother to […]
It was two months ago today that President Trump declared a national emergency because of the coronavirus pandemic (on Friday the 13th, no less). Now, let’s Get More Smarter. If you think we missed something important, please include the link in the comments below (here’s a good example). If you are more of an audio/visual […]
FOX 31’s “Not That” Rob Low updates from Greeley on the plight of workers at the JBS beef backing plant, which was closed temporarily in April after a number of employees died from COVID-19 infections. This the plant that has made nationwide headlines in recent weeks after workers were promised proper testing to isolate positive […]
In recent history, serving as Chairman of the Colorado Republican Party has come with a heaping helping of downside and just a smidge of upside. The current State GOP Chair, who also moonlights as Congressman Ken Buck (R-Greeley), has largely managed to stub his toe on every available rock in a little more than a […]

I’m not going to wait on the government to tell me what to do. The founders never had asterisks in the Constitution. If you want freedom, you have to go out and take it!

This week on The Get More Smarter Podcast, hosts Jason Bane and Ian Silverii discuss two polls that spell doom for our second favorite U.S. Senator from Colorado; everything is totally under control with the coronavirus as cases mount well past one million; Republicans still want to kill Obamacare (even though it’s one of the […]
Colorado Public Radio reports on the event dominating Gov. Jared Polis’ work week, a trip to Washington, D.C. to meet with President Donald Trump in a newly contaminated area of the city known as the White House: “The Governor’s first priority is the health and safety of Coloradans, and the federal government is an important […]
We wrote a few days ago about the COVID-19 outbreak that seems to be running rampant in the White House. Today, the White House announced a policy change that pretty much sums up the entire Trump administration in general: As The Washington Post reports: Most White House officials will be asked to wear masks or […]
UPDATE #3: Governor Polis does exactly what he should be doing: NEW: @GovofCO Polis says the state will suspend the license of C&C Cafe in Castle Rock for at least 30 days after the viral viral scene over the weekend. Polis says people were putting their “ideological or anti-science views” over public safety. #9NEWS #covid19colorado — […]
In today’s Washington Post analysis of the U.S. Senate playing field by veteran reporters Seung Min Kim and Mike DeBonis, a newsworthy development for all of us following vulnerable incumbent Sen. Cory Gardner of Colorado’s race to survive against the odds–the first public discussion we’ve seen or heard of the possibility that Gardner has already […]
Here’s what’s known in the business as a “Friday news dump” out of pandemic-stricken Weld County, Colorado, where the arch-conservative county commissioners drilled ahead with their own plan to reopen businesses there early and over the strenuous objection of Gov. Jared Polis and state health department authorities. Dr. Mark Wallace, director of the Weld County […]
You might want to start wearing that mask, Mr. Vice President: Katie Miller, a spokesperson for Pence and wife of Stephen Miller, has tested positive for coronavirus, according to two people with knowledge of Miller’s diagnosis. Trump also said today that”Katie” has tested positive. https://t.co/uQb4pv8QdB — Natasha Bertrand (@NatashaBertrand) May 8, 2020
The Hill reports today, and for those of us who burned through that $1,200 of stimulus money from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act just beginning to catch up from the personal economic devastation of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, it’s bad news: Senate Republicans are pouring cold water on including another round […]
