(Promoted by Colorado Pols) A leading conservative activist says it’s “disappointing” that U.S. Sen.

Colorado Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Yuma) says a lot of words when he is asked a direct question about a specific topic.

The Hill reports on the latest escalating constitutional crisis in Washington, D.C., this time related to the standoff over President Donald Trump’s tax returns as the administration turns to outright defiance of the law, backed up by a highly questionable opinion from Attorney General William “The Getaway Driver” Barr: Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) hammered the […]

An excellent new video from NowThis News takes an in-depth and most unflattering look at the political career of Colorado’s Sen. Cory Gardner–tracing back to his roots as a Democrat in college to one of the state’s most stridently anti-abortion legislators, then his election to the U.S. Senate and subsequent role as principal Donald Trump […]
We did a spit-take a few moments ago after watching the above clip from an interview by FOX 31’s Joe St. George of Sen. Cory Gardner today, asking about Gardner’s field of Democratic opponents and the growing unease among Republicans about Gardner’s re-election prospects. Here’s a transcript: ST. GEORGE: Nine Democrats want to run against […]

Trump chalks up dramatic success with tariff pressure on Mexico. But no thanks to RINO Senator Cory Gardner. Which poses a 2020 dilemma for Colorado Republican voters — should we even bother with anti-MAGA Gardner??https://t.co/o8ZVo4ULrT — Backbone Radio (@BackboneRadio) June 9, 2019 We wrote yesterday about the political peril Sen. Cory Gardner finds himself in […]

We do our best to keep abreast of the latest political scuttlebutt as compiled by our various political newsrooms into weekly newsletter offerings, but like an unfortunate number of news consumers out there we sometimes don’t always make it all the way through every single such roundup every single week–particularly when there’s nothing in the […]
