Ganahl Distributing Photos of “Furry” Kids to Media

The absolutely bonkers Furry-Lago conspiracy that Republican gubernatorial candidate Hiedi Heidi Ganahl won’t stop talking about is gaining national attention — and it’s about to get much, much worse because Ganahl is making horrifying (and probably illegal) decisions in pushing this widely-debunked story. Ganahl has photos of children in Colorado schools — presumably taken without […]

Joe O’Dea, Like Trump, Says Media Treats Him “Unfairly”

Republican Senate candidate Joe O’Dea is well on his way to being defeated by incumbent Democratic Sen. Michael Bennet in November. A new bipartisan poll released on Friday from Keating Research and Magellan Strategies shows Bennet leading O’Dea 46-36, which tracks with what we’ve seen from most public polling in recent months. O’Dea may be […]

This Candidate is All Over the Distric

This is Lynn Emrick. She is the Republican candidate in House District 27 — facing off against incumbent Democratic Rep. Brianna Titone — who has only been a candidate since August after winning a vacancy committee appointment to replace the GOP nominee who had dropped out of the race. Emrick is very excited about running […]

The Real Heidi Ganahl Stands Up, and She is Completely Bananas

There was a time during the 2022 race for Governor where we wondered if GOP candidate Hiedi Heidi Ganahl was actually a true believer in the mold of the Qanon-loving, MAGA Republican election deniers that dominate the base of the Republican Party…or if she was merely pandering to the base in order to make sure […]

Deborah Flora Explains Truth About O’Dea and Abortion

Republican Senate nominee Joe O’Dea responded today to the big (bizarre) news that Sen. Lindsey Graham is introducing legislation in the U.S. Senate for a nationwide ban on abortion at 15 weeks of pregnancy. As you might expect, O’Dea is trying really hard to thread a needle with a giant piece of rope. As Nick […]

NO WAY O’DEA: Time to get on the bus

For months we’ve been warning you about the danger of Joe O’Dea–a sleazy businessman with a record of hurting workers and putting his own greed above Coloradoans. It’s time to call him out for trying to have it both ways on the most important issues confronting Colorado and the nation. Join us Monday, August 22 […]

“Sleazy” Joe O’Dea: when bad business hurts good people

Unsafe working environments. Age discrimination. Hundreds of thousands of dollars in fines levied by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). For too many of Joe O’Dea’s employees, working on “Joe’s Crew” was the worst mistake they ever made. That is Joe O’Dea’s record for taking care of employees at Concrete Express, the business that […]

Being Lauren Boebert’s Neighbor, And Other Things That Suck

Garland Calls Trump’s Bluff, Asks for Search Warrant Release

UPDATE: Here’s the full transcript of Garland’s remarks, via The New York Times. —– Attorney General Merrick Garland delivered a statement this afternoon regarding a search conducted four days ago at former President Trump’s residence at Mar-a-Lago in Florida. Garland said that he personally approved the FBI’s execution of the search warrant and announced that […]

You Knew It: Joe O’Dea Shakes The Etch-a-Sketch On Trump

Larry Crowder’s Truth Is Marching On

Former state Sen. Larry Crowder of Alamosa, on a sugar high following the Supreme Court’s overturning of Roe v. Wade with the nod from Justice Clarence Thomas for society to “reconsider” all kinds of personal freedom precedents, is calling for the Ten Commandments to be posted publicly at area universities:   It probably won’t be […]

Help us stop Team Trump Colorado

In 2016, 2018, and again in 2020, Colorado sent Team Trump packing. In 2022, it’s time to do it again. And we need your help. American politics have been changed forever by Donald Trump’s destructive presidency, and Trump’s continuing assault on American democracy even after the violence of January 6th is one of the greatest […]

Don’t Believe The Hype: O’Dea Is Damaged Goods Too

Last Tuesday’s victory in the Republican primary by candidates for U.S. Senate and governor openly backed by the party elite over their MAGA grassroots opponents has given rise to a media narrative that money spent by Democratic-aligned interests to promote underfunded grassroots Republican candidates was a strategic failure. But the truth is that irrespective of […]

Pinballing: Inside Heidi Ganahl’s Most Mixed of Messages

We’ve spent some time during this primary election season discussing the work product of a particular local political reporter, Shaun Boyd of CBS4, not due to the quality of her journalism but the revealing manner in which Boyd has maneuvered to openly assist the institutionally favored Republican candidates running for the party’s nomination in the […]

PROTECT DEMOCRACY: Shut Down The University of Colorado’s Benson Center

Last week, the U.S. House Select Committee investigating the plot by ex-President Donald Trump to overturn the results of the 2020 presidential election zeroed in on John Eastman. Eastman, while serving as the University of Colorado’s “Visiting Conservative Scholar” sponsored by the controversial Bruce D. Benson Center for the Study of Western Civilization, worked directly […]

Ganahl Eastman Denial Explodes Into Full-Blown PR Disaster

Last week, struggling Republican gubernatorial candidate Hiedi Heidi Ganahl relented from her months-long self-imposed media blackout in order to sit down with a number of news outlets, presumably in order to counter the growing sense that Ganahl is hopelessly unprepared for the nomination she’s seeking. As we reported Friday, it has not gone well. It […]

Jan Kulmann must withdraw from the CD-8 congressional race

Today, ProgressNow Colorado called for Thornton Mayor Jan Kulmann to withdraw from the race for Colorado’s Eighth Congressional District. It’s not a demand we make lightly, but the details of Kulmann’s conduct as president of the board at Stargate Charter School raise serious questions about her fitness to serve the public in any capacity. Seventeen […]

Ron Hanks Makes Lemonade Out Of CBS4’s COVID Policy

A television debate between the two Republican U.S. Senate candidates Joe O’Dea and Ron Hanks scheduled for yesterday evening at the CBS4 Denver studio didn’t take place, and as Hanks explains in a video from the state capitol afterward, it’s not due to Hanks’s unwillingness to go toe to toe with his opponent–rather the prospect […]

BREAKING: Boebert’s Mileage Scandal Gets New Investigation

On December 4, 2020, Colorado Pols was the first to note that Congressperson Lauren “Q*Bert” Boebert had filed a campaign finance report that included a completely implausible amount of money returned back to her pockets for “mileage reimbursements.” As we wrote at the time, Boebert’s campaign reimbursed the candidate $22,259 for mileage, which would mean […]

NO WAY O’DEA: Join the fight for progress in June

Remember Cory Gardner? How can Colorado forget his two-faced lies and games? In 2022, Joe O’Dea is trying to do the same thing. O’Dea condemned Colorado’s new law codifying abortion rights. He said repealing Roe v. Wade would make abortion a “local issue.” Then O’Dea tried to walk it back. O’Dea now says he supports […]
