President Trump’s on-again, off-again tariff “policies” have been a regular subject in this space, with one example after another demonstrating the significant negative impacts on Colorado businesses. As Judith Kohler reports for The Denver Post, a new state report on tariff impacts shows that things keep getting worse: The overwhelming majority of Colorado businesses surveyed […]
Assessing Tuesday’s unexpectedly historic off-year elections as the final results trickle in, one of the biggest shock victories for Democrats in Colorado is what appears to be the dismantlement of Aurora Mayor and former GOP Congressman Mike Coffman’s carefully and expensively crafted Republican-in-all-but-name majority on the Aurora City Council. If the results hold giving Democrats […]
Last week we dug through the campaign finance reports for major races in Colorado in 2026, and while we provided some brief analysis for every race, we thought it would be worthwhile to look a little closer at the top contest on the ballot: The open seat for Governor. Here’s how the fundraising numbers compare […]
CNN kicks off your weekend with a fresh dose of troubling economic news: Economists were already expecting an unimpressive set of data for the August jobs report. The actual numbers came in far worse: Just 22,000 jobs were added in August, compared to expectations for 76,500 new roles. June’s job total was negative, shedding 13,000 […]
After a difficult week of budget cuts and loophole closures to address the billion-dollar hole in Colorado’s state budget opened by the passage of the federal “We’re All Going To Die Act” budget bill, the Denver Post’s Nick Coltrain and Seth Klamann report that a coalition of progressive advocacy groups is kicking off a campaign […]
TUESDAY UPDATE: The stupid…it burns… Here’s Rep. Ken “Dildo” DeGraaf (R-Colorado Springs) arguing that the State of Colorado should begin doing genetic identification of post-abortion remains in order to identify the responsible male so that he can repay the state somehow: Or, if you prefer, here’s Rep. Larry Don Suckla (R-Montezuma County) telling a […]
Two new polls released this week in the 2026 Democratic primary races for governor and attorney general from Global Strategy Group each show exactly what we would expect: the candidates with the highest name recognition among likely primary voters with strong leads in their respective races. The Denver Post’s Nick Coltrain reports on the gubernatorial […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally published at the Colorado Times Recorder Despite widespread support and an unassailable Democratic majority in both Colorado’s state House and Senate, House Bill 1312, which codifies landmark protections for transgender people, was widely believed last month to be in jeopardy, with one prominent LGBTQ group changing its position multiple times. […]
The Washington Post reports on the global news dominating the day today, the election in Vatican City of the first American Pope, Robert Prevost, now Pope Leo the 14th. Pope Leo replaces the recently deceased Pope Francis, whose political engagement on behalf of the poor, migrants, prisoners, and others at the bottom of the social […]
The 2025 Colorado legislative session comes to a close today. If a speech on Tuesday from Republican Rep. Don Suckla of Montezuma County is any indication of how things have been going at the State Capitol, it’s definitely time for everyone to head home. Suckla went to the well on Tuesday to argue against SB25-288 […]
The Colorado Libertarian Party has a long way to go in order to achieve any real political relevance in our state. About 37,000 Coloradans are registered as “Libertarians,” which accounts for about 0.009 percent of the state’s 4.1 million active voters. The recent actions of the CLP’s leadership probably won’t move those numbers any higher. […]
There is a remarkable video clip making the rounds on social media today of President Trump asking and answering the question that has been on every American’s mind for months: How could you be THIS STUPID and still end up as President of the United States? Here’s President Trump in his own words on Wednesday, […]
UPDATE 1:45PM: Colorado House Republicans are attempting to hold the floor in a politically ill-advised protest of the resolution condemning Donald Trump’s January 6th pardons, with debate stretching into Friday afternoon: —– This morning, the Colorado House is in the process of passing Senate Joint Resolution 25-006, a joint resolution condemning Donald Trump’s pardoning of […]
As the Summit Daily’s Robert Tann reports, the Colorado Senate passed on final third reading today a contentious but broadly misunderstood piece of gun safety legislation, much modified from its original form of a strict ban on semiautomatic weapons meeting specific criteria in common with the definition of an assault rifle into a new training […]
In blue-trending Jefferson County, once considered a bellwether for the state’s evolution from red to blue and today reflecting the state’s overall Democratic dominance at the polls, the local Republican Party has not been what you’d call a competitive political organization, staffed by crackpots like the immediate former chairwoman of the JeffCo GOP Nancy Pallozzi […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally published at the Colorado Times Recorder WASHINGTON – In November, U.S. Rep. Gabe Evans (R-CO) narrowly flipped a swing congressional seat. To do so, he waged a campaign to appeal to Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, and independent voters. His actions in Congress will reflect how he responds to pressure from his […]
On the morning after the election last Wednesday, embattled-then-vindicated chairman of the Colorado Republican Party Dave “Brandon Forever” Williams sent out an email blast celebrating Donald Trump’s nationwide victory, side-stepping the obvious problem that Trump for a third consecutive election failed to carry the state of Colorado. Radical Democrats, and even sell out RINO’s like […]
We wrote just over a week ago about a brewing scandal inside gazillionaire Donald Trump supporter Elon Musk’s America PAC operation, which has taken over responsibility for field campaign efforts for the Trump campaign in a number of key states. An investigation in the UK Guardian revealed that a large percentage of the campaign’s recorded […]
The New York Times’ Jonathan Wiseman reported this weekend in depth on the controversy over the fictional “takeover” of the city of Aurora, Colorado by migrant gangs, which despite being debunked at every step in the false story’s spread peaked last week with former President Donald Trump promising that the “largest deportation in the history […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Originally posted at the Colorado Times Recorder After more than a decade of public service, Colorado Springs Republican Mark Waller has not been an elected official for over three years, and given his party’s current state of chaos, that suits him just fine. The former house minority leader served in the […]
UPDATE: As we noted last week, Colorado Republicans including the state’s top congressional candidate Gabe Evans bearhugged J.D. Vance, which won’t age well in the event Vance turns into a boat anchor for the Republican ticket: “Americans relate to J.D. Vance,” says Gabe Evans. Don’t forget he said so. —– With the announcement Sunday that […]
If you’re reading these words there is a strong chance you are the sort of person who watched the first Presidential debate of 2024 on Thursday evening. If you watched that debate, you saw what everyone else saw: President Biden looked pretty bad. Biden’s performance was a shock to the system for many folks who […]
Despite several challengers over the years, the owner of “Worst Political Ad in Modern Colorado History” has continued to hold that imaginary title since 2006. You know the one… That’s former Republican gubernatorial candidate Bob Beauprez, whose infamous 2006 campaign ad showed him talking to the camera while literally standing next to a horse’s ass. […]
As the Aurora Sentinel reports, the city’s representative in Congress Rep. Jason Crow is in the district this week touting funding he secured through earmarks for important local programs, including $3 million for the Aurora Central Library: Aurora library officials touted a $3 million congressional appropriations contribution, funding a project to provide a new and […]
The Washington Post has live updates from the ongoing criminal trial of former President Donald Trump today, on charges of falsifying business records to conceal a “hush money” payment to porn star Stormy Daniels in order to cover up an affair that the former President insists to this day never took place. Well gentle readers, […]
