Brita Horn: Same Circus, Different Clown

When Brita Horn was running to become the next leader of the Colorado Republican Party, she and her allies presented her as a more rational and capable choice for GOP Chair in comparison to outgoing Chairperson Dave Williams. While that was an incredibly low bar for any sentient organism to clear, we’ve seen from Horn’s […]

Energy Secretary Chris Wright Makes Cringeworthy Visit To NREL

As Ishan Thakore reports for Colorado Public Radio, Energy Secretary Chris Wright returned home to Colorado yesterday to visit the National Renewable Energy Lab in Golden, one of the nation’s leading research centers for alternative sources of energy and other strategies to address the issue of human-caused climate change. A visit made more than a […]

Math (and History) is Hard: Brandi Bradley Edition

As we noted on Friday, House Republicans quite literally showed their asses during a several-hours long debate over whether or not to support a resolution condemning President Donald Trump’s blanket pardons of criminals convicted of various charges — including assaulting police officers — related to the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection. Rather than follow the lead […]

The Constitutional Crisis is Here, and You Need to be Paying Attention

For years Donald Trump has been ignoring many of the social and political norms that once existed in this country. Trump attacks everyone, spares no-one, spews misinformation at every opportunity, and ignores guardrails put in place to separate politics from government (such as holding his 2020 Presidential nomination speech on the White House lawn). But President […]

Senate Republicans Vote Against Resolution Condemning J6 Insurrection Pardons

Democrats in the State Senate opened their legislative week by bringing to the floor a resolution condemning President Trump’s pardons of criminals involved in the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection (which included 20 Coloradans). The discussion over SJR25-006 was fairly brief, with Sen. Nick Hinrichsen (D-Pueblo) delivering a speech in opposition to the pardons from his […]

Michael Bennet Has Had Enough of Tulsi Gabbard’s Ducking and Dodging

Colorado Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Denver) made headlines on Wednesday by verbally pummeling Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. during a confirmation hearing for the Trump nominee to lead the Department of Health and Human Services. Apparently, Bennet was just getting started.

House Republicans Offer More Gibberish on Reproductive Rights Day

What do you get when you take an issue like reproductive rights, add a few House Republicans, and give them a microphone? A whole lot of stupid.

Meet Your New Energy Secretary, Colorado Petro-Evangelist Chris Wright

So-Called “Patriot Front,” Or Maybe Feds, March Through Downtown Denver

On Saturday afternoon in downtown Denver, a band of somewhere around 50 men wearing face masks and the loosely matching uniforms of the fascist ultranationalist group Patriot Front arrived on RTD trains to march around the city protesting the “unrestricted and unmitigated invasion” of Colorado they presumably heard about from a Donald Trump stump speech.

What A Nice New Libertarian Friend Gabe Evans Just Made

Last week, freshman state Rep. Gabe Evans, running for Congress in Colorado’s ultra-swing CO-08 against incumbent Rep. Yadira Caraveo, announced that the Libertarian candidate in the race Eric Joss was pulling out and endorsing Evans–a potentially significant development after Joss received a greater number of votes in the 2022 election than Caraveo’s margin of victory […]
