What Trump’s Loony Swipe At Mail-In Ballots Really Means

We’re taking the rare step of posting the text of President Donald Trump’s wild and wacky screed early this morning presumably in response to a headline about Jeffrey Epstein he didn’t like, to ensure that search engines capture every word of it for posterity: I am going to lead a movement to get rid of […]

GOP Operative “Shakedown” Of Counties Gets Substantially Worse

As the Denver Post’s Seth Klamann reports, the story that broke this week in the Washington Post about Republican political consultant Jeff Small’s rebuffed approaches to Republican county clerks to permit outside access to voting equipment, a la convicted former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters, is taking a turn towards something closer to extortion and […]

Why Is 76 Group Harassing Republican County Clerks?

UPDATE: Denver Post’s Seth Klamann: At least 10 Republican clerks were contacted by consultant Jeff Small, officials said Wednesday. Small, who has Colorado political connections, told the clerks that he was working on the project for the White House and the U.S. departments of Justice and Homeland Security, and he said he wanted the clerks […]

Just Another Patriot Who Believed Donald Trump Too Much

As Colorado Public Radio’s Bente Birkeland reports, another MAGA patriot has allegedly taken matters into his own hands, delivering a dose of vigilante justice to enforce the continuing dogmatic insistence on the part of President Donald Trump and everyone who wants to curry favor with him that the 2020 presidential election was stolen in a […]

FAFO: Have We Mentioned Recently That Election Fraud Doesn’t Pay?

As the Grand Junction Sentinel’s Sam Klomhaus reports, a former U.S. Postal Service worker in Grand Junction was sentenced to five years in the Colorado state hoosegow for her part in a crackpot scheme to “test” the state’s election security by stealing and voting 19 ballots that didn’t belong to her–otherwise known as election fraud: […]

“MyPillow Guy” Mike Lindell Liable As Hell For Defamation

As the Denver Post’s Seth Klamann and Nick Coltrain report, get ready for a new MyPillow discount code: INEEDTWOMILLIONBUCKS. Mike Lindell, the CEO of MyPillow and one of the most prominent conspiracy theorists about the 2020 presidential election, defamed a former Dominion Voting Systems director when he called him “treasonous,” a Colorado jury found Monday. […]

“MyPillow Guy’s” On-Camera Lies, Courtroom Denials Catch Up With Him

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 […]

PSA: Don’t Threaten Public Officials, Even For Donald Trump

As AP’s Colleen Slevin reports via the Durango Herald, a gentleman from Cortez with the eminently Colorado name Teak Ty Brockbank was sentenced yesterday to three years in the federal pokey after making conpiracy theory-inspired death threats against Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold that contained the requisite specificity to go beyond free speech (here’s […]

Boebert’s Bumbling Attempt To Kill Front Range Rail Has An Ugly Subtext

As Denver7’s Robert Garrison reports, now that Colorado’s bumbling blunderbuss of bluster Rep. Lauren Boebert has successfully carpetbagged her way from the Western Slope to Colorado’s Eastern Plains, she needs local issues to sound off about so as to give the appearance of representing a specific congressional district instead of her vast social media constituency. […]

A Few Words On The “Big Lie’s” Last Prisoner

After President Donald Trump’s pardon of just about all of the rioters who took part in the January 6th, 2021 insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on his behalf, there are only a small number of individuals who are still affected by state sentences for crimes that Trump can’t make go away–including the convictions in Georgia […]

“America’s Hangman” For Governor, Anyone?

One of the more colorful, and by that we mean unapologetically insane figures in Colorado politics our readers know well is election conspiracy theorist and gun store owner Joe Oltmann, the respondent in a defamation suit stemming from Oltmann’s fictional account of a conversation in which a Dominion Voting Systems executive supposedly made promises to […]

Jeffco Clerk Amanda Gonzalez Leads Off Secretary of State Race

As Quentin Young at Colorado Newsline reports, Jefferson County Clerk Amanda Gonzalez is first off the line in what’s expected to be a lively primary for the Democratic nomination to succeed term-limited Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold in 2026: “I want to give myself time to talk to as many people as I can,” […]

Who Really Broke The Law In Election Machine Password Case?

UPDATE: Colorado Democratic Party chairman Shad Murib agrees that Rep. Stephanie Luck’s role in this incident raises questions: So eager to stick it to the Secretary of State that Rep. Luck broke the law herself? It’s looking more like the Tina Peters case all the time. —– We wrote last Monday about a luncheon event […]

It’s Always Weird When Election Deniers Win The Election

UPDATE: In a rambling email blast Saturday, Colorado GOP “Ballot and Election Security Chairman” “Raging” Ron Hanks lays the whole wacky theory out: Colorado’s election system was more mismanaged and corrupted in 2024 than ever, and the popular vote trends we saw in every other state strangely did not register in Colorado. We know, of […]

If There is Actual Election Fraud, It’s Always a Republican

Warning about non-existent “election fraud” has been almost a requirement for membership in the modern Republican Party. Everything is fraudulent…unless Republicans are winning, and then it’s fine. And as we found out again this week, whenever actual election fraud attempts take place, it is always — ALWAYS — a Republican who is involved. From The Colorado […]

The Big Lie is Back, But it’s Really About 2024 Now

The 2024 election will conclude in less than a month. Naturally, Republicans across the country have decided to focus their attention on the 2020 election as they make their final pitch to voters. Questioning the results of the 2020 Presidential Election rushed back in a big way last week during the closing moments of the Vice […]

Lauren Boebert Joins The Flat Earth Society?

It’s not an allegation we would make lightly even against the infamously conspiracy-befuddled Rep. Lauren Boebert, but this Facebook post from Aspen socialite and friend of Boebert Maggie Silvers raises the honest question: We re-read the above post a couple of times in hope of discovering how we had somehow misunderstood, but scrolling down it […]

Dave Williams Loots Colorado GOP During His Everlasting Goodbye

Yesterday, we discussed the conspicuous lack of the usual pre-election organizing operations normally carried out by the Colorado Republican Party this year, the result of gross mismanagement of dwindling resources under state party chairman Dave “Brandon Who?” Williams and a growing division between candidates who remain loyal to the state party and others including some […]

Russia Ready To Process Your MAGAsylum Claims, Says Alex Jones

As HuffPost’s Kate Nicholson reports, Russian President Vladimir Putin unveiled this week a new program allowing foreign citizens fleeing “destructive neoliberal ideals” in Western nations (that’s you, America) to apply for political asylum in Russia and escape once and for all the woke West and all the icky things we let people do with each […]
