Rep. Brandi Bradley Desperate To Start Her Very Own Culture War

Colorado state Rep. Brandi Bradley, now doing double culture-war duty as the leader of the brand-new Douglas County chapter of Moms For Liberty (yes, those Moms For Liberty), has been on the clamorous frontlines of every conceivable wedge issue during her relatively short time in office, earning her a spot in the Colorado House Republican […]

Two Republicans Launch Silly “2nd Amendment Caucus” for Reasons They Can’t Articulate

UPDATE: An eagle-eyed reader pointed out that the statue featured prominently in the “Second Amendment Caucus” logo is no longer in that spot in front of the State Capitol. That statue, which depicted a Civil War soldier who was part of the First Colorado Cavalry unit that took part in the infamous “Sand Creek Massacre,” […]

The Colorado Republican Party Has Become a Hindrance for Republican Candidates

The pratfalls and misadventures of the Colorado Republican Party have been a key storyline throughout the 2024 election cycle. The infighting that has consumed the Colorado GOP for more than a year isn’t letting up despite the fact that ballots drop in Colorado in about 10 weeks. Candidates and campaigns are now speaking out more […]

Initiatives 50 and 108 Falling Apart Amid Basic Scrutiny

In the waning days of the 2024 legislative session in Colorado, both Democrats and Republicans came together on a property tax reduction bill to help Colorado families. This bipartisan group believed that SB24-233 would have the side benefit of preventing two different property tax measures from appearing on the November ballot. A Big Business-aligned group […]

BREAKING: Restraining Order Stops Dave Williams Ouster Efforts Cold

That’s the latest highly consequential late Friday afternoon news from Ernest Luning at the Colorado Springs Gazette’s political blog, a restraining order has been issued shutting down tomorrow’s scheduled meeting of Colorado GOP central committee members in Brighton to consider removing chairman Dave “Let’s Go Brandon” Williams and his leadership allies at the behest of […]

Richard Holtorf Jumps Into Colorado GOP Chairmanship Fracas

With a faction of members of the Colorado Republican Party’s central committee set to meet this weekend to vote on whether to oust embattled party chairman Dave “Let’s Go Brandon” Williams and his crew of allies in state party leadership–a meeting that the party has declared “illegal” and vowed to ignore the results of–another candidate […]

Lauren Boebert is Now Free to be Her True Asinine Self

Congressperson Lauren Boebert likely saved her political career with a landslide victory in last month’s Republican Primary in CO-04. Now that she can exhale about her employment for the next few years, Boebert is free to be her true self… Her true ridiculous, uninformed, and embarrassing self. Boebert is still technically representing the third congressional district […]

Campaign To Remove Dave Williams Descends Into “Calvinball” Chaos

As Ernest Luning at the Colorado Springs Gazette’s political blog reports, a coalition of Colorado Republicans who have banded together behind El Paso County GOP vice chairman Todd Watkins looking to oust state party chairman and humiliatingly defeated congressional candidate Dave “Let’s Go Brandon” Williams is battling with Williams’ allies in party leadership over the […]

So, Uh, How About that Presidential Debate!

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 […]

Dave Williams Lies About Spending Republican Party Funds on His Own Campaign

Colorado Republican Party Chairman Dave Williams is nothing if not full of shit. Last week Marshall Zelinger of 9News tracked Williams down at a Republican event to ask him a couple of questions, including a series of queries related to the Colorado Republican Party spending money on paid communications in order to help prop up […]

Mike Lynch Gets Perfect Ending to Disastrous 2024

It may seem hard to believe, but 2024 is already halfway over. There might not be any Colorado politician more ready for this year to just end entirely than State Rep. Mike Lynch (R-Wellington). Lynch began the year as the House Minority Leader and a plausibly-strong challenger for Congress in CO-04. Things went downhill from […]

PNC Presents: Winners and Losers of the 2024 Colorado legislative session

From landmark new renter protections signed into law to the passage of important pieces of Gov. Jared Polis’ agenda for affordable housing, reproductive rights, marriage equality, and gun safety, the 2024 session of the Colorado General Assembly was a major success for stakeholders who persisted and kept organizing despite past legislative setbacks. While we celebrate […]

Colorado Going Back To The Future on Marriage Equality

On Sunday, the Colorado House passed Senate Concurrent Resolution 24-003, referring a statewide constitutional amendment to voters this November to repeal the state’s constitutional prohibition on same-sex marriage–a provision that hasn’t been enforced since the U.S. Supreme Court’s Obergefell v. Hodges decision making marriage equality the law of the land, but would suddenly become a […]

Puppy-Killing Gov. Kristi Noem Cancels Jeffco GOP Fundraiser

That’s the word this morning in a statement from Jefferson County Republican Party chair Nancy Pallozzi, a fundraiser planned for tomorrow at the Denver West Marriott headlined by South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem has been cancelled as the repercussions from Noem’s disclosure in a new memoir that she personally shot and killed a young hunting […]

Marjorie Taylor Greene Will Move Ahead with Motion to Vacate Speaker’s Chair

Georgia Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene announced today that she will demand yet another motion to vacate and remove Republican Mike Johnson as Speaker of the House. Greene made the announcement even though she has virtually no support among fellow Republicans…and even though Democrats have already promised to put a stop to this nonsense. From […]

A Few More Words On Rep. Richard Holtorf’s Tragic Inability To Stop Talking

Yesterday the Colorado House debated and eventually gave initial passage to Senate Bill 24-131, a bill that would prohibit firearms in certain “sensitive spaces.” The bill’s original broad scope was pared down considerably in amendments, but one amendment along the way more or less has become the focus of debate over the entire bill: prohibiting […]

Trump Hush Money Trial: Day Of The Pecker, Part 1

Opening arguments were heard today in the first of several criminal cases against former President Donald Trump, this being the case of Trump cooking his books to conceal a “hush money” payment made to porn star Stormy Daniels to keep the story of their alleged affair under wraps. Prosecuting attorney Matthew Colangelo laid out the […]

New Abortion Ruling in Arizona Has Republicans, Trump in a Panic

The issue of abortion rights has galvanized voters across the country since the June 2022 overturning of the landmark Roe v. Wade case that had previously guaranteed abortion rights to women on a federal level. In every state that has voted on abortion rights since that ruling, voters have overwhelmingly sided in favor of abortion […]

House Republicans Kick Ball Over Fence on State Budget (Again)

UPDATE: House Republicans appear to have already deleted the post from ‘X’ that we included below… —– The Colorado legislature is only required by the State Constitution to do one thing in every legislative session: Pass a budget for the state fiscal year that begins on July 1. There is no avoiding this duty for […]

‘A Massive & Horrible Conundrum:’ GOP Election Expert Skeptical of His Party’s Plan for Scantron Voting at Assembly

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) When it comes time for a party led by election deniers to count ballots, trust is inevitably hard to come by. Chairman Dave Williams, along with former state Rep. Ron Hanks, a fellow election fraud conspiracist whom Williams has appointed Chair of the party’s Ballot & Election Security Committee, are in […]

What Does Blue Do for You in 2024?

We first started taking note of Congressional funding requests from Colorado’s delegation back in 2021, when rules were relaxed on so-called “earmarks” after a 10 year moratorium on the process. As we noted in May 2021, Colorado received $123.3 million in “Member Designated Projects” and “Community Funding Requests” for local communities — every dime of […]

A Candidate So Nice, You’ll Need to Vote for Him Twice

We finally have an idea of what the ballot will look like for voters in Colorado’s fourth congressional district who will be selecting a candidate in both a Special Election and a Republican Primary Election. Now former Congressman Ken Buck (R-Greeley) finished his last day on Capitol Hill on Friday after his surprise announcement earlier […]
