As Colorado Newsline reports, we’re seeing the first estimates now of what the impacts will be to Colorado’s state budget if the Republican trifecta in total control in Washington, D.C. passes the “We’re All Going To Die Act” budget reconciliation package that will cut funding from Medicaid, food assistance, and innumerable other programs that Coloradans […]

Just before Memorial Day weekend, we took note of an order from Donald Trump’s new Secretary of the Interior Doug Burgum, directing national parks and monuments to remove interpretive signage and other materials that “inappropriately disparage Americans past or living.” This order affects parks and historic sites related to slavery, the Civil War, wars against […]
In the immediate aftermath of Saturday morning’s harrowing assassination of a Democratic state lawmaker in Minnesota and the wounding of a second along with their spouses, as the Minneapolis Star-Tribune reports, Republicans across the nation jumped to conclusions based on partial and as it turns out highly incomplete information about the suspected killer, Vance Boelter, […]

Democratic Members of Colorado’s Congressional delegation strongly condemned Thursday’s unprecedented action in Los Angeles in which a sitting U.S. Senator (Sen. Alex Padilla) was forcibly removed from a press conference being held by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem. Republicans in Colorado’s delegation were decidedly less concerned. Thanks to Colorado Public Radio and social media, […]
As Denver7’s Brandon Richard reports, the Trump-addled Justice Department under Pam Bondi has issued a highly unusual and expansive request for elections data from Colorado on the last two presidential elections in 2020 and 2024, reportedly in reponse to a “complaint” made to the Department from (we assume) one of the many kooks and conspiracy […]
UPDATE: Rep. Jason Crow responds: When a U.S. Senator gets thrown to the ground, manhandled, and handcuffed for doing their job, ask yourself—how will they treat you & your family? This type of stuff happens in dictatorships, not democracies. Donald Trump wants total control. But we will not be intimidated. https://t.co/GDVnWfQ3uF — Rep. Jason Crow […]
Freshman Republican Rep. Gabe Evans campaigned for office in full agreement with Donald Trump’s promises to deport millions of undocumented immigrants from the country, subsidizing Trump’s wildly exaggerated claims that the city of Aurora had been “overrun” by migrant gangs and appearing with Trump at his rally last October near Denver International Airport promised that […]

This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, another violent antisemitic attack hits the USA, this time very close to home as Republicans try to politicize the tragedy to gin up anger against immigrants and Colorado Democrats stand in solidarity with the Jewish community. Then, it’s the greatest feud ever on the dumbest timeline imaginable. Will Donald […]
Republican Rep. Gabe Evans of Ft. Lupton has gone from State Representative to Member of Congress to a walking punchline over the course of the last 12 months. For all of the career changes Evans has undergone in the last year, he’s going to have a hard time shaking his new clownish reputation. Here’s how […]
As CBS4 Denver’s Olivia Young reports, among the hundreds of peaceful protests planned for “No Kings Day” this coming Saturday, which also happens to be the day of a massive military parade in Washington D.C. to celebrate President Donald Trump’s birthday the U.S. Army’s 250th birthday, is a rally in the conservative southeast Denver metro […]
In just a few months in office, freshman GOP Rep. Jeff Hurd of Grand Junction has had several high-profile moments of disagreement with President Donald Trump on a range of issues from the layoff of federal workers to Trump’s pardoning of violent January 6th, 2021 insurrectionists–though notably not in the end opposed to the “We’re […]
While you were watching the immigration protests in Los Angeles that are now spreading to other cities — including Denver — Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr was dismantling an important vaccine advisory committee in an unprecedented move. We’ll get to the local angle in a moment, but first here’s The Washington […]
As KTLA TV-5 in Los Angeles reports, protests over raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents targeting undocumented immigrants in that city have raged since last Friday, resulting in several dozen arrests and a few minor injuries to responding police officers: The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, Los Angeles Police Department and California Highway Patrol […]
Just over a week ago, America’s Most Vulnerable Freshman™ Rep. Gabe Evans held a press conference on the West Steps of the Colorado Capitol with lightning rod Rep. Lauren Boebert to tout the virtues of the so-called “Big Beautiful Bill,” which we’ve followed Sen. Joni Ernst’s lead in renaming the “We’re All Going To Die […]
UPDATE: Musk seems to support…impeachment? —– The internet is abuzz today as President Donald Trump and former Prime Minister Elon Musk exchange blow after blow in an online squabble that is starting to get nasty: As NBC News explains: The simmering tension between President Donald Trump and Elon Musk exploded in public Thursday, with the […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) MyPillow CEO Mike Lindell got rich thanks in large part to his big personality and his brash salesmanship — every sale is the “deal of century!” He’s in a Denver courtroom this week, not because he still believes the 2020 election was stolen, but because while hyperbolic claims about pillow […]
News was still trickling out about the firebombing attack in Boulder last weekend when right-wing talking heads and Republican elected officials started screaming about their belief that Colorado’s immigration laws were responsible for a horrific act that injured at least 12 people. In recent days, Aurora City Council person Danielle Jurinsky called out several elected […]
As Nick Coltrain reports for The Denver Post, the field of Democratic candidates hoping to get a shot at incumbent Republican Rep. Gabe Evans in 2026 continues to grow: Colorado Treasurer Dave Young is joining the increasingly crowded Democratic primary for the 8th Congressional District. Young, a Greeley Democrat, is a former member of the […]
After months of pre-trial wrangling as eminent election denier Mike “MyPillow Guy” Lindell tried everything to forestall accountability in court, the defamation case from former Dominion Voting Systems executive Eric Coomer against Lindell finally got underway this week, with yesterday seeing the opening testimony from Coomer explaining why he suit against Lindell is necessary for […]
This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, what do you call it when you throw a press conference, get boo’d by the crowd so loud you can’t hear the questions from the press to try and sell a very unpopular bill outside your district? We ask our 7th favorite member of congress from Colorado. Then, […]
We wrote yesterday about the swift politicization of Sunday’s terrorist attack in Boulder that injured a now-reported 12 people by Republicans near and far, rushing to blame the previous administration and Colorado’s Democratic elected leaders for Egyptian national Mohamed Soliman’s presence in the state despite Soliman having apparently followed all the necessary steps to apply […]
