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 […]
(If you can’t dazzle them with brilliance… – Promoted by Colorado Pols) During an online discussion hosted by a conservative talk radio station yesterday, U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner (R-CO) refused to acknowledge that the JBS meat-processing plant brazenly broke its promise to test all employees before they went back to work. Seven JBS employees have […]
(Hater radio lovefest! – Promoted by Colorado Pols) In advance of his radio station’s online discussion with U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner (R-CO), KNUS host Steffan Tubbs warned “not to expect breaking news” from his “virtual town hall” with Gardner tonight at 7 p.m. Still, Tubbs said he’d ask “what I perceive to be tough questions” […]
Late yesterday a new poll on the Colorado Senate race from Montana State University and The University of Denver came out with some pretty stunning numbers. From Forbes: In a sign of Colorado’s increasingly Democratic lean, a poll released Tuesday showed former Gov. John Hickenlooper with a commanding lead over Republican Sen. Cory Gardner in […]
During interviews with reporters on Friday, Gov. Jared Polis disclosed an interesting–but not very comforting–development in the race/game/”free market experiment” to obtain vital supplies to combat the COVID19 pandemic. Everyone knows by now about the intra-governmental treachery Colorado encountered trying to purchase 500 ventilator machines for the state’s emergency inventory, only to have that purchase […]
During the ongoing COVID-19 emergency, prior votes to cut funding to the Centers for Disease Control and other related public health agencies have emerged as a major political liability for the generally Republican owners of those votes up for re-election in 2020. This includes America’s Most Vulnerable Senator™ Cory Gardner, who in both the House […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) WEDNESDAY POLS UPDATE: Here is UFCW President Kim Cordova on MSNBC from Monday night confirming that most workers at the JBS Greeley plant were never tested: Obviously, there’s a major factual discrepancy here in Cory Gardner’s taking personal credit for delivering thousands of tests to the JBS Greeley plant versus the […]
UPDATE: As Eli Rosen of the Colorado Democratic Party points out, you can’t cite yourself as an example of a person being critical of a thing: Memo to Team @CoryGardner: you can’t cite *yourself* to dismiss ethics accusations. That is not how this flacking thing works. #cosen #copolitics https://t.co/PfrURvk0gz pic.twitter.com/BOquYxjiQT — Eli Rosen (@EliRosen18) April […]
(White House? What White House? — Promoted by Colorado Pols) If there is a limit to Sen. Cory Gardner’s (R-CO) willingness to refrain from criticizing President Trump, it seems musing about the benefits of ingesting bleach isn’t the last straw. Asked to evaluate the administration’s handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, Gardner refused, saying it was […]
Several local news outlets are collaborating to write a series of what’s known in the business as “human interest stories” about various public and ordinary figures in Colorado during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Such coverage works to avoid political and frankly any sort of controversy, and focus on the “human element” with a more expository […]
Thank you to the people of Colorado for the warm and gracious notes and letters sent to me for all of the Ventilators we got for you. It was my great honor! @SenCoryGardner — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) April 25, 2020 This morning, President Donald Trump posted the Tweet you can read above, thanking the […]
Earlier this week, Sen. Cory Gardner appeared on the Hugh Hewitt conservative AM radio talk show to assail House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Democrats for “stalling” the latest round of coronavirus relief legislation–which among its many provisions replenishes the depleted Paycheck Protection Program for forgivable loans to businesses to help cover payroll costs. Gardner […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Sen. Cory Gardner (R-CO) has been notoriously difficult to reach for comment recently, particularly when it comes to criticizing President Trump. Gardner’s reluctance to publicly cross his party’s leader has been widely reported, but that didn’t stop him from attacking his likely election opponent, former Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper, for failing […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Sen. Cory Gardner (R-CO) wanted to make it absolutely clear to his fellow Republicans at their virtual state assembly on Saturday that he stands firmly with President Trump. In place of a standard candidate speech, Gardner’s campaign played a video montage of Trump praising Gardner as the two men shared the […]
We noted last month on The Get More Smarter Podcast that Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Yuma) was identified as a high-profile attendee of a lavish champagne-tasting party in Palm Beach, Florida. Today, Justin Wingerter of The Denver Post catches up on this story and a related ethics complaint that looks really, really, REALLY bad for Gardner: On […]
Conservative sort-of news outlet Washington Times put up a story yesterday after interviewing Sen. Cory Gardner on the federal government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic. We’re obliged to use the word “interview” loosely in this case, since it’s tough to call this anything close to incisive or informative. In fact, it almost seems like it […]
Former Gov. John Hickenlooper may have set a new fundraising record for a Democratic U.S. Senate candidate in Colorado with $4.1 million raised in Q1 — besting the $4 million quarter posted by former Sen. Mark Udall in Q3 2014. Hickenlooper also outraised incumbent Republican Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Yuma) by about 65%. Hickenlooper’s big Q1 […]
As the Denver Post’s Justin Wingerter reports–it would appear somebody has come to the conclusion that last week’s public relations debacle for Sen. Cory Gardner, who tried to turn the negative story of an order by the state of Colorado for 500 ventilator machines snatched up by the federal government into a positive via a […]
Yesterday, Sen. Cory Gardner of Colorado in concert with America’s Twitterer-in-chief rolled out a multimedia PR package “celebrating” the delivery due to a personal request from Gardner to Donald Trump of 100 new ventilator machines to our state from the Strategic National Stockpile. This rollout included a Tweet to the President’s tens of millions of […]

Cory Gardner’s Washington, D.C. office and tell him to investigate the alleged co-opting of 500 ventilators the state of Colorado tried to buy to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic by the federal government–this after President Trump himself told states to […]
UPDATE #2: In a clip sure to outrage anyone who knows the full context of the story, Sen. Cory Gardner went on Fox News this morning to celebrate the 100 ventilators he snagged as a personal favor from President Donald Trump–presumably out of the 500 the Trump administration bought out from under Colorado: ICYMI ➡️I […]
From time to time over the years, we’ve had occasion to sit back and marvel that the outlandish editorial pronouncements of the devoutly conservative Phil Anschutz-owned Colorado Springs Gazette. From accusing Gov. Jared Polis of “ties to the Ku Klux Klan” for misplaced dramatic effect to their comically absurd hagiographical write-ups about 2018 GOP gubernatorial […]
As Politico’s Burgess Everett reports, Sen. Cory Gardner of Colorado is asking the Department of Health and Human Services for an investigation into the management of the Strategic National Stockpile as a shortage of crucial medical equipment like ventilators looms: Sen. Cory Gardner is pushing for an investigation into possible mismanagement of the Strategic National […]
(D’oh! — Promoted by Colorado Pols) Most politicians like to boast that they deliver jobs. But if you believe an advertisement this week, the Colorado Republican Party thinks people will vote for U.S. Cory Gardner (R-CO) if they’re convinced he delivered “historic unemployment.” The Colorado Republican Party did not return an email asking if the […]
(Good to know, thanks – Promoted by Colorado Pols) Republicans must not only retain the White House this fall, they must also hold the U.S. Senate, says Sen. Cory Gardner (R-CO). If they don’t do both, he warns, even if President Trump is reelected, Chuck Schumer won’t approve any of Trump’s judges: “he’ll block every […]
