UPDATE: Statement from impeachment manager Rep. Diana DeGette on today’s decision: “Our case was strong, the facts were clear and the evidence we presented was overwhelming. This was the largest bipartisan vote to impeach a president ever, and even Mitch McConnell agreed that we proved our case. It’s shameful that so many Senate Republicans chose […]
Axios reports, Republicans in Congress led by Colorado’s Rep. Ken Buck are leaning into the ongoing debate by Facebook’s external Oversight Board over whether or not to rescind the ban imposed on former President Donald Trump, following the failed January 6th insurrection Trump rallied and incited: The board is taking comments on whether it should […]

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) In a legal action that could unveil the names of high-rolling Republicans in Colorado and beyond, the Colorado Secretary of State’s Elections Division is moving ahead with its investigation of a conservative dark money group behind millions of dollars in campaign spending during the 2020 election cycle. In a complaint filed […]
“Fellow road warrior?” That, gentle readers, is how you take a scandalous frown and turn it upside down! This is what’s known as “chutzpah.” Respect it on a certain level. It’s worth asking though, does former Secretary of State Wayne Williams think every congressional ethics complaint is a joke? After buying a $700 pair of […]
Impeachment 2.0 has taken up all of the political oxygen this week, moving President Biden’s COVID relief bill to the sideline temporarily. But a bevy of new information shows that Republican opposition to the $1.9 trillion relief bill is wildly out of touch with the rest of America. As Paul Waldman explains for The Washington […]

UPDATE: Rep. Joe Neguse once again brings it home: Rep. Joe Neguse: "We humbly, humbly ask you to convict President Trump for the crime for which he is overwhelmingly guilty of. Because if you don't, if we pretend this didn't happen, or worse if we let it go unanswered, who's to say it won't happen […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Journalists have been asking U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) for documentation to support a reimbursement of $22,259 for mileage driven during her successful election campaign last year. Boebert said she might provide her proof with journalists “if I liked them.” “Maybe if I liked them, I would throw them a little […]

Former Colorado Senator Cory Gardner was a guest on “Fox and Friends” on Wednesday morning to discuss his new career venture running a SuperPAC for Republican candidates. But before Gardner discussed his new fundraising job, talking muppet Ainsley Earhardt asked Gardner to comment on Tuesday’s opening hearings in the second impeachment trial against President Trump. […]
UPDATE: Neguse is rolling: Joe Neguse smartly highlighted Trump’s *pattern of conduct* going back to BEFORE the election to make the case that he incited the riot. He says: “It’s not just one speech. It didn’t just happen. It was part of a months-long effort with a specific instruction: Show up on Jan. 6.” — […]
This week on The Get More Smarter Podcast, hosts Jason Bane and Ian Silverii talk Impeachment 2.0; keep apologizing to the rest of the country for Rep. Lauren “Q*Bert” Boebert as the first serious contender to challenge for CO-3 announces; and discuss the Republican “Civil War,” to the extent that it really exists. Later, we […]
When many people think about a law career, they picture someone in an expensive suit firing questions at witnesses in a courtroom. However, one of the perks of pursuing a law career is that there are many different areas of the law to pursue. These are three of the many options you can consider. 1. […]
UPDATE #2: You can count CNN’s Chris Cillizza among those impressed with Rep. Joe Neguse today: The Colorado congressman was a litigator in private practice prior to being elected to Congress in 2018. And it sure showed during his breakdown of the key question of the first day of the trial: Is it, in fact, unconstitutional […]
Ernest Luning of the Colorado Springs Gazette updates from Saturday’s meeting of the El Paso County Republican Party, where concerns about armed militia “guarding” the meeting did not materialize but the conspiracy theorist chair of the county party Vicki Tonkins was re-elected in a close and disputed election against former county commish establishmentarian Peggy Littleton: […]

UPDATE: AP’s Nick Riccardi observes correctly, this isn’t a promotion: Have always been skeptical at the notion that Gardner would run again for #cosen or even #cogov but this seems to put the nail in the coffin https://t.co/tZFrshWLq1 — Nick Riccardi (@NickRiccardi) February 9, 2021 —– For months since losing the 2020 U.S. Senate election […]
(Facebook is forever – Promoted by Colorado Pols) About five years ago, Kenneth Wilkison got in a Facebook dispute with Denver-area lawyer Elliot Fladen that ended with Wilkison writing, “And JEWs wonder why they are so disliked.” Fladen is reflecting now on why he mostly ignored Wilkison’s comment. Part of the reason, says Fladen, is […]

TUESDAY UPDATE: At some point on Monday, Buck deleted the ridiculous Tweet below. Today, he re-upped the same inaccurate accusation…just with different words: The White House is planning to treat illegal immigrants convicted of crimes like assault and drug offensives better than they do our own Keystone Pipeline workers. https://t.co/BDBzW1d7Fp — Congressman Ken Buck (@RepKenBuck) February […]

This may not seem super newsworthy at first glance, but it is for us at the Colorado Times Recorder, where […]
Back in December, Colorado Pols first reported on suspiciously large mileage reimbursements from Rep. Lauren Boebert’s campaign account, pocketing over $21,000 in one lump sum on November 11th alone–compared to Rep. Scott Tipton reimbursing for about $10,000 during his entire decade in office. The Denver Post followed up this story last week, and determined through […]
Yesterday evening, Rep. Lauren Boebert took some time out of her busy schedule (she still has her committee assignments, after all) to mingle with National Guard troops deployed to defend the U.S. Capitol in the aftermath of the January 6th insurrection against the building and its occupants. No doubt the troops were polite, and some […]
