As the Washington Post reported last night, the wind-down of Rep. Trent Franks’ (R-AZ) career this week amid a bizarre allegation of sexual misconduct involving his female staff rapidly accelerated Friday as the icky details became public–turning what was expected to be a resignation within weeks into resignation effective immediately: Rep. Trent Franks (R-Ariz.) offered […]
Colorado Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Yuma) was introduced to a national late-night audience when he was lampooned in a caricature on “The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon” on Monday. An actor portraying Gardner appeared during host Jimmy Fallon’s monologue to “answer” a few questions about the Republican tax plan approved by the Senate in the early hours on Saturday. […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) I was really looking forward to U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner’s (R-CO) appearance yesterday on Colorado Public Radio, especially after reading the outpouring of questions submitted in response to CPR journalist Ryan Warner’s request for queries for Gardner on the tax bill. Here are the 100-plus questions, from Warner’s Twitter feed. They […]
After her stance on abortion came under scrutiny by multiple conservative radio hosts, gubernatorial candidate Cynthia Coffman is now refusing to appear on KNUS’ Craig Silverman show, according to fellow KNUS host Chuck Bonniwell, who’s also publisher of the Glendale Cherry Creek Chronicle. Bonniwell: You’ve got the weird Cynthia Coffman deal, where she’s running but […]
The demands productivity, comfort and practicality make these devices a fundamental tool in the niche. When you need a Call Center headset, you are likely to look for information before making a decision. Finding reviews and comments on this topic should not be a problem, since Google was not invented yesterday. However, below I will […]
Former Denver Mayor Wellington Webb gets serious praise for removing fake news from his Facebook page, which falsely quoted Trump as saying: “If I were to run, I’d run as a Republican. They’re the dumbest group of voters in the country. They believe anything on Fox News. I could lie and they’d still eat it up. […]
Today on the Get More Smarter Show, your hosts Jason Bane and Alan Franklin wear some stupid masks for Halloween, make some predictions about candidates for Governor in 2018, and break out their favorite moments from Vicki Marble and the Cub Scout Tapes. Then, Jason interviews Democratic gubernatorial candidate Cary Kennedy. To jump ahead to the Kennedy interview, skip forward […]
As the Denver Post’s John Frank reports–Rep. Doug Lamborn of Colorado Springs, who has weathered numerous primary challenges ever since winning his own cut-throat Republican contest to succeed now-long retired (and fondly remembered) Rep. Joel Hefley, has stepped into scandal just as he prepares to face a whole pack of fresh Republican faces in 2018: […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) The Denver Post has run two guest opinion columns (by a local columnist here and by a syndicated columnist here) relying heavily on a dubious study, financed by the right-wing Koch Foundation and conducted by a UCLA professor, which concluded that “freedom of expression is deeply imperiled on U.S. campuses.” Yikes! I’ve been seeing conservatives […]
Politico reports from Montgomery: Insurgent Roy Moore’s rout of incumbent GOP Sen. Luther Strange in Alabama’s special election Tuesday has senior Republicans bracing for a wave of resource-draining primaries across the map that could undermine their best-laid plans to defeat Democrats in 2018. Moore’s win — over an incumbent who benefited from millions of dollars […]

Then stay tuned for an in-depth interview with Joe Neguse, a […]
UPDATE: Remember, friends, that we don’t have to guess at what might happen if the “individual mandate” is not preserved. In the mid-1990s, the state of Washington implemented many healthcare policy changes now favored by many Republicans, and the result was a complete collapse of the insurance market in the state. This now-classic Seattle Times story […]
Denver radio legend Steve Kelley’s retirement last month from KNUS 710-AM made some news, but less noticed was the quiet shuffling off the air of Krista Kafer, who was Kelley’s KNUS co-host on the Kelley & Kafer show. KNUS’s decision not to offer Kafer her own show, or pair her with someone else, was disappointing to […]
Senator Cory Gardner is in trouble. On Tuesday, Gardner held his first solo town hall appearance(s) in more than a year. The coverage of those events (in Colorado Springs, Greeley, and Lakewood) was largely negative for the freshman Senator, but there were a few friendlier media voices that could help Gardner feel a little better […]
TUESDAY UPDATE: This episode of the Get More Smarter Show makes some local news, via Ernest Luning: Republican gubernatorial candiate Victor Mitchell says he’s often called the “nice Donald Trump” in a video interview posted online Monday, but also says he’ll decline to campaign with Trump in Colorado if he wins the GOP nomination next year. […]
Today on the Get More Smarter Show: your hosts Jason Bane and Alan Franklin talk health care politics and the 2018 electoral landscape. Then stay tuned for an in-depth interview with Rep. Alec Garnett of Denver, who helped close some of the biggest deals of the 2017 Colorado legislative session! Rep. Garnett and Jason talk […]
There is so much breaking news lately on the ever-widening allegations about Russian ties to the Trump campaign that it can be difficult to keep track of everything. With that in mind, we’ve created what we’re calling “The Daily D’oh!” to help you stay up-to-date on President Trump and the rest of the White House staff as more […]
A photo that appeared on the Twitters this week, from a middle school tour of the U.S. Capitol hosted by Colorado Sen. Cory Gardner–like putting a quarter (or a banana) into a photo to provide some objective measurement of size: Never realized Gardner was such a “small businessman,” did you? After all, it’s so rare to […]
CNN reporting on the one-man war of words against London Mayor Sadiq Khan waged by President Donald Trump in the aftermath of a terror attack in London this weekend–stunning for its pointless criticism of a public official trying to get his city back on track after a tragedy they didn’t ask for: US President Donald Trump renewed his […]
(Promoted by Colorado Pols) On Sunday, May 7, 2017, Trump’s Deputy Assistant “Dr* Sebastian Gorka chatted with KVOR radio host Tron Simpson. I listened, and it raised several questions: Why was a top level Presidential appointee slumming on a right wing talk show in Colorado Springs? Is “*Dr.” Gorka still a part of the President’s […]
Magellan Strategies, a Colorado-based polling firm that is known to lean-Republican, released a fresh new batch of polling numbers in Colorado today. For Republicans hoping to see better results after an awful Keating Research poll in March… Well, let’s just say that things are looking up — but only because Republican numbers are essentially upside-down. […]
You’re probably aware that yesterday was April 20, a day that has become something of a quirky holiday around the world because of the popularity of marijuana (click here for more about how 4/20 became associated with marijuana use). For many Colorado residents, however, April 20 is a somber reminder of a different sort: The […]

UPDATE: Before using Republican attempts to make Barack Obama “prove” his citizenship as a foil, Republicans in the Colorado legislature might want to re-read Senate Concurrent Resolution 11-003, requiring “any person elected to public office in the state of Colorado to provide proof of citizenship along with the oath of office.” If they have any questions, […]
As the Colorado Statesman’s John Tomasic reports, a new report from the Center for Budget and Policy Priorities puts a fresh number on the damage the moribund American Health Care Act, a.k.a. Trumpcare, would do in Colorado–and just in case you weren’t already clear on this, it’s pretty bad: A new report on the House […]
