It seems like just yesterday that carpetbagging calamity Rep. Lauren Boebert was celebrating her endorsement in the crowded CO-04 Republican primary by newly-minted Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, who won the job with Boebert’s support in hope of ending the chaos that followed the ouster of now-historical footnote Kevin McCarthy: But even in early […]
Colorado will have four major Congressional Primary races in June (CO-03, CO-04, CO-05, and CO-08). Now that the assembly and petition processes for ballot access are complete, it’s time to assess how each of these three races will look on June 25th…starting with the third congressional district The ballots in each of these districts are […]
Republicans in the state legislature are not serious people. They have demonstrated this time and time again during the last two legislative cycles (and well before then). Republicans spend well more than their fair share of time yammering about one thing or another in order to grind legislative happenings to a halt. When that strategy […]
(Conspiracy theories are ruthless — Promoted by Colorado Pols) In the days after U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert was rushed into emergency surgery to remove a blood clot that threatened her life, the online underworld swirled with speculation that the clot resulted from Boebert receiving a COVID vaccination. In a radio interview last week, Boebert put […]
Yesterday, the Colorado House passed House Bill 24-1304 on its initial voice vote, legislation aimed at promoting affordable housing by preventing local governments from imposing minimum requirements for parking on new residential developments. While this bill hasn’t received as much attention as other legislation this year easing regulations on accessory dwelling units (ADUs) and encouraging […]
As we noted earlier today, Colorado Republicans are unwilling to work with Democrats in the state legislature even on issues that should be nonpartisan. But these days Republicans seem to be focusing most of their fire in their own direction. Last Friday, The Denver Post published a front page story about the ongoing infighting within […]
A press release from Democratic CO-03 candidate Adam Frisch yesterday celebrates yet another big quarter of fundraising success, continuing to assert ownership of this marquee swing-able race even after the flight of critically endangered Rep. Lauren Boebert to the crowded CO-04 Republican primary across the state: The Adam Frisch campaign for Colorado’s 3rd congressional district […]
Colorado Public Radio’s Andrew Kenney reports on the continuing struggle in the Colorado Senate to find one solitary Republican lawmaker willing to complete a supermajority in favor of Senate Concurrent Resolution 001, a.k.a. the Child Sexual Abuse Accountability Amendment, which would refer to the voters a ballot question that if approved would open a “look […]
Tuesday’s hearing in the Colorado House Judiciary Committee of a GOP-sponsored resolution to impeach Secretary of State Jena Griswold in misguided retribution for the Trump v. Anderson U.S. Supreme Court case, to which Griswold was a defendant along with former President Donald Trump, ended in humiliation for its Republican sponsors and so-called “expert witnesses” with […]
The current session of Congress is well on its way to going down in history as perhaps the single most ineffective two years in American history. Think about that for a moment: This is the 118th session of Congress. None of the previous 117 sessions were as useless as this current version overseen by a […]
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 […]
As Ernest Luning reports for the Colorado Springs Gazette’s political blog, CO-04 congressional candidate Rep. Richard Holtorf fired off a statement yesterday calling for the resignation of Colorado Republican Party chairman Dave “Let’s Go Brandon” Williams, after the party announced its surprise endorsement of Rep. Lauren Boebert in the CO-04 race via Twitter while castigating […]
As part of their long-running efforts to prove that they are absolutely not serious people interested in useful discussions about anything, House Republicans will today waste a few hours of everyone’s time in a pointless quest to impeach Secretary of State Jena Griswold. What for? Let’s dig in… When and Where Will this Circus […]
The removal Saturday of Colorado Sun veteran political number-cruncher Sandra Fish from the Colorado Republican Party’s state assembly in Pueblo has escalated into a major public-relations disaster for Colorado Republican Party chairman and CO-05 congressional candidate Dave “Let’s Go Brandon” Williams, who has found himself under surprisingly intense attack from fellow Colorado Republicans as the […]
The Colorado Republican Party held their state assembly at the state fairgrounds in Pueblo, wrapping up the congressional assemblies on Friday and the party’s platform and agenda Saturday. Unfortunately for candidates who won their respective races, events at the assembly this year were overshadowed by yet another self-inflicted controversy courtesy Colorado Republican Party chairman and […]
If you miss seeing today’s much-ballyhooed partial solar eclipse, you won’t get another good look at the moon blotting out the sun for another 20 years. Colorado will be in the middle of another election season in August 2044…and Republican Ramey Johnson will probably still be a candidate for some sort of elected office. As […]
Huh. We gotta admit we didn’t see this one coming. As The Colorado Sun reports in its “Unaffiliated” newsletter, 2022 Republican nominee for Lieutenant Governor Danny Moore is running for a state legislative seat: Republican Danny Moore, a Navy veteran and entrepreneur who ran unsuccessfully for lieutenant governor in 2022 with gubernatorial candidate Heidi Ganahl, is […]
The internet and extreme ends of social media do not discriminate when it comes to political affiliation. Whether you are on the far left or far right of the political spectrum, the social media echo chamber will eat your brain just the same. We wrote earlier this week about Republicans (again) refusing to support legislation […]
In documents filed yesterday before the State Bar Court of California, former University of Colorado “conservative scholar” and central player in the scheme to overturn the 2020 presidential election John Eastman is requesting a stay of the decision inactivating Eastman’s license to practice law, citing a number of cases around the country Eastman remains involved […]
(This story was originally published on coloradotimesrecorder.com — Promoted by Colorado Pols) Douglas County election conspiracist, podcast host, and defamation defendant Joe Oltmann had Lydia Brimelow, publisher of the white nationalist website VDARE, on his Conservative Daily podcast yesterday. “At VDARE.com, we’ve called ourselves the voice of the historic American nation,” said Brimelow. “The idea […]
Republican legislators demonstrated for the gazillionth time on Tuesday that they are only interested in “mental health” as an argument against doing anything about gun violence prevention. We’ve seen it time and time again: Republicans say that the real problem with gun violence is mental health and that any attempts to discuss legislation about the guns […]
Marianne Goodland at the Colorado Springs Gazette’s political blog reports on debate yesterday in the Colorado Senate over legislation that would–among a few other defined “sensitive spaces”–further prohibit firearms inside the Colorado State Capitol building. Presently, security at the Capitol operates under an unusual status quo that prohibits the public from carrying firearms in the […]
As we have long known, former President Donald Trump is a YUGE fan of Russian President Vladimir Putin. Whether or not Putin shares a fondness for Trump is unclear, but the Russian dictator certainly prefers to deal with the obsequious orange guy when it comes to relations with the United States. Putin knows that Trump […]
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 […]
Jason Salzman at the Colorado Times Recorder has the first coverage from the surprising outcome Saturday at the Republican assembly for the ultra-competitive CO-08 congressional seat, in which Americans For Prosperity-endorsed state Rep. Gabe-ish Evans failed to eliminate his primary opponent former Rep. Janak Joshi, setting up a race to the right ahead of the […]
