The Denver Post’s Saja Hindi published before Chirstmas a very good long-form story on the changing politics of reproductive choice in Colorado, an issue long disparaged by local political reporters as irrelevant given the state’s solid Democratic control of the levers of power, but no longer as the rightward lurch of the federal judiciary up […]
Yesterday’s jaw-dropping story of remarks by now-former 710 KNUS conservative talk radio host Chuck Bonniwell on Tuesday afternoon, suggesting that “a nice school shooting” would be a welcome distraction from the impeachment proceedings against President Donald Trump, has exploded in only 24 hours from the local progressive news site Colorado Times Recorder to more or […]

(What the…? — Promoted by Colorado Pols) UPDATE: KNUS management has canceled Bonniwell’s radio program, called the Chuck and Julie show, and removed all archived audio from past shows from the station’s website. “Given the history of school violence that has plagued our community,” a statement released Wednesday evening by 710 KNUS Denver reads, “710 […]
Article I, Section 9 of the Constitution: “And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince or foreign State.” US Federal law 110.20 Prohibition on contributions, donations, expenditures, independent […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) In what appears to be another sign that KNUS 710-AM is unconcerned about allegations that a staffer is a Nazi, the station’s afternoon-drive show conducted an on-air film review Friday of a classic anti-Nazi movie, Inglourious Basterds. “Who doesn’t hate Nazis? We all do,” said KNUS host Steffan Tubbs on air, […]
The ongoing scrutiny by local media continues of 710 KNUS producer Kirk Widlund, who remains in his job almost two weeks after an expose by the Colorado Springs Anti-Fascists of a not-so-hidden social media profile on the Russian VK network attributed to Widlund that, if authentic as a growing body of evidence suggests, pegs Widlund […]
While you were reading about impeachment news last week, you may have missed a significant vote in the Democratic-controlled House of Representatives addressing an issue that is of utmost concern to American voters in 2020: Reducing the outrageous costs of prescription drugs. The “Elijah E. Cummings Lower Drug Costs Now Act” (HR-3) passed out of […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) “Talk is cheap,” the saying goes. Only it’s not free – it’s bought and paid for very often. Like in the advertising and PR blitz around oil and gas development. And which will only grow more ubiquitous, will saturate more of our information stream each day, in 2020. Open a website, […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Denver’s KNUS 710-AM management isn’t saying whether the radio station will air a new show hosted by the Colorado Proud Boys, a designated hate group, as reported by 9News’ Jeremy Jojola. But Louie Huey, one of the Proud Boys behind the show, appeared as a featured guest on KNUS as recently […]
UPDATE: Oh, it gets worse. As The Independent reports: Donald Trump‘s team have edited his face on to the body of teenage climate change activist Greta Thunberg after she was named Time‘s Person of the Year. The official Trump War Room account on Twitter posted the altered front cover of the magazine on Wednesday, the […]

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Would a Colorado ballot measure banning abortion after 22 weeks into pregnancy inspire more conservatives to vote next year, to the benefit of anti-choice Republicans like Cory Gardner? I assumed so, along with others, like Colorado Sun columnist Mario Nicolais, who tweeted that the initiative, if it makes the ballot, will […]
A press release today from the Rocky Mountain Wolf Action Fund announces the delivery of over 210,000 petition signatures to the Secretary of State, in support of a statewide ballot measure in 2020 to reintroduce wolves to Colorado by 2023: “Colorado voters have made clear once again that they enthusiastically support restoring the natural balance […]
As the Colorado Sun’s Jesse Paul reports: Lauren Boebert, the owner and operator of a Western Slope restaurant where all staffers openly carry guns, announced on Sunday a conservative primary challenge to Republican U.S. Rep. Scott Tipton. “Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the Squad and the rest of these left-wing lunatics are taking a wrecking ball to our […]

Brought to our attention yesterday though it’s been out for a few days apparently–the Colorado Springs Anti-Fascists, yes that means “Antifa” but before you pass judgement understand that this particular group has successfully exposed more than one local-area neo-Nazi via straightforward online sleuthing methodology, including an Air Force master sergeant at Schreiver Air Force Base […]

UPDATE: President Trump now insists that he definitely did not do that thing that he already said that he did: President Donald Trump on Tuesday denied that he directed his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani to go to Ukraine and seek out investigations on his behalf, contradicting his own words to the Ukrainian President in the […]
The day before Thanksgiving is one of the better days of the entire year to announce news that is less-than-flattering. State Sen. Angela Williams took advantage of the slow news week to announce that she is suspending her U.S. Senate bid in order to focus on running for re-election to the State Senate. As Justin […]

The ethics complaint filed by former GOP House Speaker Frank McNulty against former Gov. John Hickenlooper has been generally discounted by knowledgeable observers looking at what appear to be the innocuous facts of some travel Hickenlooper took as governor–including in large part by Hickenlooper’s primary opponents. Despite this, the process of such a complaint against […]
