Sorry Republicans, COVID-19 Won’t Break The Legislature

As Denver7’s Robert Garrison reports, the Colorado Supreme Court ruled yesterday on an important constitutional question regarding the Colorado General Assembly’s 120-day legislative session–after being forced to adjourn for public health reasons as the COVID-19 pandemic ramped up, can the legislature get back to work seamlessly once it’s safe, or does a narrow interpretation of […]

Nunes, Johnson Keep Touting GOP Coronanonsense

We’ve written a few times in this space about the asinine responses from local Colorado Republicans regarding efforts to slow the spread of COVID-19. It is worth noting that this is not a problem restricted to Colorado Republican elected officials. As Chris Cillizza writes for CNN, California Republican Rep. Devin Nunes — the ranking member of […]

Cory Gardner Warns If GOP Loses Senate, Schumer Will Block Trump’s Judges

(Good to know, thanks – Promoted by Colorado Pols) Republicans must not only retain the White House this fall, they must also hold the U.S. Senate, says Sen. Cory Gardner (R-CO). If they don’t do both, he warns, even if President Trump is reelected, Chuck Schumer won’t approve any of Trump’s judges: “he’ll block every […]

“Let’s Take Some Risk Here,” says Michael “Heck’ve a Job” Brownie about Virus

(Yes, really – Promoted by Colorado Pols) Michael Brown, best known for being told by President George W. Bush that he was doing a “heck’ve a job” during the Katrina disaster, sits behind a radio microphone during the pandemic, fearful for the country, not because of the death toll, but because he thinks politicians are […]

Let The Colorado GOP COVID Backpedal Begin

When considering last week’s round of angry protestations from local Republicans, first vilifying the Tri County Health Department for their enforceable stay-at-home order covering Adams, Arapahoe, and Douglas counties, then Gov. Jared Polis for his statewide stay-at-home order which superseded Tri County Health’s order, the question has not been whether these GOP protests would age […]

Minority Leader Neville, Who’s The “Tyrant” Now?

SUNDAY UPDATE: Call him President Backpedal, reports Politico: President Donald Trump announced Saturday that he would not be quarantining New York City’s metro area, which has emerged as the nation’s largest hot spot for the coronavirus, after floating the idea earlier in the day… Federal law gives the president and the federal government vast emergency […]

Republicans Staged “Drive-Thru” Convention Saturday

(For pity’s sake – Promoted by Colorado Pols) UPDATE: The event occurred Saturday and was likely legal because it was related to an election, even if it could have been avoided. —– El Paso County, Colo, Republicans are apparently moving ahead with a “drive-thru” county convention Saturday, involving some 1,500 GOP voters, many elderly.

Darwinism In Action: Colorado Republicans “Resist” COVID Order

Yesterday afternoon, Gov. Jared Polis took his biggest step yet in the response to the hockey-sticking COVID-19 global pandemic, as cases and fatalities in Colorado rapidly increase–a statewide stay-at-home order obliging most of us to stay in our houses except for designated essential trips. As our readers know, Polis’ statewide order came shortly after Republican […]

Weld Sheriff: I’d Rather Take My Risk With the Virus Than Socialism

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Sheriff Steve Reams is the top public safety official in Weld County, Colorado. Yet even after his county declared a pandemic health emergency last week, the coronavirus isn’t his top concern. Reams is worried about socialism.  I’m going to rant just a bit,” wrote Reams on Facebook. “I understand that nobody […]

The global coronavirus pandemic is making heroes in places you wouldn’t expect.

Ken Buck on Coronavirus: Do As I Say, Not As I Do

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) When it comes to social distancing to prevent the spread of the coronavirus, Congressman Ken Buck (R-CO4) appears to be taking a “do as I say, not as I do” approach. While he has said people should try to avoid publics places for the next months, and that “elderly Americans…should be […]

Agency Criticized by GOP Leader for Delaying Gun Purchases Says It’s Keeping Staff Safe

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) In response to Colorado House Republican Leader Patrick Neville’s concern about an “unacceptable” two-day delay in issuing background checks required for new gun purchases, the Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI), which conducts the background checks, says it’s “balancing our statutory responsibilities with the need to keep our employees safe.” “Gun purchases […]

About Cory Gardner’s “Sinister Chinese Propaganda Campaign”

Via the Colorado Springs Gazette’s daily blog on political updates regarding the COVID-19 pandemic, we’re alerted that Sen. Cory Gardner of Colorado is vexed, vexed mind you, about far-fetched suggestions by diplomats from the People’s Republic of China pinning responsibility for the outbreak on the United States: U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner and two fellow Republican […]

Bloomberg Giveth And Taketh Away

CNN reports on the what appears to be the final disposition of Michael Bloomberg’s failed presidential campaign–a big check to the Democratic National Committee to help take out Donald Trump in November irrespective of the nominee: Michael Bloomberg’s presidential campaign transferred $18 million to the Democratic National Committee on Friday, turning to the committee to […]

Conservatives Say Restaurants Should Stay Open in Violation of Polis’ Order to Close

(Darwinism in action – Promoted by Colorado Pols) “I will go to any restaurant that stays open. You will have my business.” “At this point, I have not been given anything official. So we will be open for business.” “Many people will visit your restaurant!” Those comments, which appeared on the private Facebook page for […]

Rep. Ken Buck’s Dangerous Irresponsibility Rolls On

As the Denver Post’s Justin Wingerter reports–after Rep. Ken Buck of Colorado became a national embarrassment as one of only two House votes against the initial coronavirus relief legislation to pass Congress, and one of a relatively small contingent of House Republicans to vote against the second, Buck is doubling down on his “what, me […]
