This is a stunning story and also exactly how power always gets its way. The Party clearly is failing in its promise to be neutral. They’re dangling the Mayor position to get Gonzales to not run for Senate!

Colorado Democrats have a choice.

If you like DC dysfunction and 16 years of corporate donors calling the shots, vote Bennet.

If you want someone who fights for Colorado’s workers, not billionaires, vote Phil Weiser.

It’s that simple.

My latest is about the latest revelations on the failed prosecution of Donald Trump, and why you should blame Merrick Garland more than the Supreme Court.

The mayor declined to give an extra $4.5 million to the Office of the Clerk and Recorder in his proposed 2026 budget — money López said was desperately needed to run the 2026 midterm elections securely.

We're witnessing the most aggressive, fanatical crackdown on free speech in my lifetime. The speed and breadth of government censorship and private sector and nonprofit capitulation has been astonishing. As has the lack of urgency/silence from people who've long claimed to care about this stuff.

I will remind folks those images of Nazi book burnings aren't burning just any books. They're burning the library of Magnus Hirschfeld; a gay, Jewish doctor who created an institute dedicated to LGBTQ sex education and healthcare. And a man who pioneered gender affirming care surgeries.

COLORADO can stop the Big Ugly Bill if we put enough pressure on Gabe Evans (CO-8) and Jeff Hurd (CO-3).

Both are in heavily contested seats. Voting for this bill would surely cost them their seats but voting against it might save them.

Call and email their offices!

Every election is the most important one ever when your party runs on promising to try.

Roe was abolished? Now they can promise to get it back.
