Trump Grows Aurora “Takeover” Fiction To Cover All Of Colorado

UPDATE: Gov. Jared Polis issued this statement welcoming Donald Trump to Colorado if he chooses to visit, but reminding Trump as a “convicted felon” to leave the “criminal elements that he brings with him” back in Washington: “Aurora is our third biggest city, over 400,000 people, it’s a terrific city, I was there last week.

What Coordinated Campaign? Colorado Republicans Face The Down-Ballot Abyss

We’re just 42 days away from the 2024 general election, and as Colorado Public Radio’s Bente Birkeland and Caitlyn Kim report, the divided Colorado Republican Party’s disorganization and lack of resources to assist candidates at any level this year is becoming a full-scale emergency–and despite the urgency with yet another looming catastrophe at the polls […]

Walling Off New Mexico: It’s Now Really A Thing

As Albuquerque’s KRQE-TV reports, what was once a running joke with its origin in various flubs committed by Republican politicians attempting to address immigration on the southern U.S. border, sometimes forgetting or misstating the state of New Mexico’s status as a U.S. state, now appears to be a highly questionable reality as the state of […]

Republicans Misunderstand Leverage in Stupidest Shutdown Threat

Speaker of the House Mike Johnson is really not very good at this whole governing thing. Like, historically bad.

Republicans Are Stuck With Dave Williams Until At Least Mid-October

As Sara Wilson reported Tuesday for Colorado Newsline, the court trial to determine who is the rightful leader of the Colorado Republican Party is set to begin just over a month from now–not as far off as lawyers for embattled but still holding the office keys chairman Dave “Buh Bye Brandon” Williams were hoping for, […]

Aurora Apocrypha Helps Trump Crash And Burn On National Television

“Aurora Has Fallen”–Boebert, Gabe Evans Board The Crazy Tren
