Colorado Republicans Had One Bad Option; They Took It

Nobody asked us to give a commencement speech this year, but if we had been tapped for such an honor, we might have given this advice: Never select the obvious worst choice when considering how to approach a particular endeavor. In other words, don’t follow the example of Colorado Republican lawmakers. The Colorado legislature reconvened […]

Every Coloradan Knows Trump Is Lying About Mail Ballots

There is NO WAY (ZERO!) that Mail-In Ballots will be anything less than substantially fraudulent. Mail boxes will be robbed, ballots will be forged & even illegally printed out & fraudulently signed. The Governor of California is sending Ballots to millions of people, anyone….. — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 26, 2020 In Sunday’s Denver […]

Blowing The Dog Whistle With Minority Leader Pat Neville

In an op-ed published behind the paywall yesterday by the Phil Anschutz-owned Colorado Springs Gazette, Republican House Minority Leader Patrick Neville sounds off in favor of immediately reopening the state’s economy–despite the fact that Gov. Jared Polis won praise last week from none other than President Donald Trump himself for the controversially swift pace of […]

Doug Lamborn Dials Up Buffoonery to New Level

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 […]

HEROES Act Signals End of “COVID Kumbaya”

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 […]

Cory Gardner, and […]

A Brief History: Ken Buck as State Republican Party Chairman

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 […]

Senate Republicans Balk At More Stimulus Checks

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 […]

William Perry Pendley Is The Boil You Just Can’t Pop

Extorter-In-Chief: Trump Names His Price For Coronavirus Aid

Well run States should not be bailing out poorly run States, using CoronaVirus as the excuse! The elimination of Sanctuary Cities, Payroll Taxes, and perhaps Capital Gains Taxes, must be put on the table. Also lawsuit indemnification & business deductions for restaurants & ent. — Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) May 5, 2020 Another jaw-dropper of […]

So, You STILL Want to Kill Obamacare?

Three years ago today, Republicans in the House of Representatives passed legislation that was intended to destroy the Obama-era Affordable Care Act (ACA). All of the cool Republican kids voiced support for destroying the ACA in 2016, and they very nearly succeeded in doing just that in 2017 before the late Sen. John McCain gave […]
