Mesa County Health Board Causing Worry

(Promoted by Colorado Pols) Mesa County Colorado is officially on the world map these days, thanks to the likes of Tina Peters and Lauren Boebert, but what is causing me a lot of worry these days is the direction of the Mesa County Health Department’s Board.

Boebert Welcomes Last-Minute Bestie Donald Jr. To Pueblo

As the Pueblo Chieftain’s Anna Lynn Winfrey reports, Pueblo County Republicans were subjected treated to an appearance Saturday at a fundraising event by none other than Donald Trump, Jr. himself–who was kind enough at the request of Rep.

MTG/Boebert Feud Awaits After Holiday Recess

Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia and Lauren Boebert of Colorado, exploded into public […]

Waiting For Dave Williams’ Next Lead Balloon

It’s been a wild few months for newly-elected Colorado Republican Party Chairman Dave “Let’s Go Brandon” Williams, whose brief term in office has been marred by growing dissent, infighting, intraparty score-settling…basically anything except what the Colorado GOP should be focused on, raising money and organizing to reclaim seats in the 2024 elections.

Lauren Boebert’s No Good, Very Bad Week

“Thank God it’s Friday” is one of those mindless phrases that has been so overused that it’s almost embarrassing to utter the words anymore.
