We’re hearing word of fresh controversy in Adams County, this time involving the county’s elected Assessor Patsy Melonakis (R)–spouse of longtime local judge Chris Melonakis. The story as we understand it is that Patsy Melonakis is refusing a routine annual internal audit of her office–a normal and necessary exercise that all other offices of Adams County […]
The so-called “House Freedom Caucus,” which counts Colorado Rep. Ken Buck (R-Greeley) among its members, is doing its damnedest to muck up the budget discussions in Washington D.C. As Politico reports today, the Freedumb Caucus is dead-set on holding the budget hostage — even if it means waiting until 2016 to approve an omnibus spending bill: With […]

We’ve seen a fair number of strange reactions from Republicans and other conservatives to last week’s terror attack in San Bernardino, California–with the story combining the two disparate narratives of international terrorism and gun control in ways that conservatives can’t easily square up. Unless you’re Tom Tancredo! In which case it’s easy-peasy to chart a way […]

Jeffco Commissioner Don Rozier says on FB he’s announcing Thursday. #copolitics — Lynn Bartels (@lynn_bartels) December […]

Today, we bring you a draft editorial that may or may not have been forwarded to us from the office of Senator Cory Gardner. This is a timely piece that addresses the use of […]
No country does gun violence quite like the United States. As the New York Times reports — with some amazingly-specific statistics — people outside of the United States are more likely to be killed by a falling object than a gun: In Germany, for example, about two out of every million people are fatally shot by another […]
Christmas Day is three weeks away; sorry to freak you out. It’s time to Get More Smarter with Colorado Pols. If you think we missedsomething important, please include the link in the comments below (here’s a good example). TOP OF MIND TODAY… ► Senate Republicans have finally advanced legislation to President Obama’s desk — where it will […]
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell may have secured enough support to attempt a half-assed Obamacare repeal that includes significant cuts to Medicaid. As Politico reports, this may not turn out well for Republican incumbents in 2016: Putting an Obamacare repeal on the president’s desk would mark a major psychological — if not an actual — victory for […]
