A day after vetoing a CO specific bill, Trump lashes out at Dem Gov. Jared Polis & the R DA that prosecuted Tina Peters.
Peters was found guilty by a jury of breaking state laws (& did not prove there was massive voter fraud).
(Also she's 70 & not in a max security prison)

Don’t worry, Colorado also wishes the worst for Donald Trump. May he rot in hell (the sooner the better). And Tina Peters will rot in prison where she belongs.

I don't hate farmers. Even if I did write that line about how every farm is a kind of environmental crime scene. I just think farmers should be treated like any other businessmen.

The PETA food police are running yet another stupid initiative that Denver voters will reject. Yawn.
Denver voters will decide whether to ban foie gras, keep it off restaurant menus trib.al/v9Y63E9

Foie gras — or fattened liver of a duck or goose — is a delicacy in French cooking. Farmers produce the food by force-feeding the birds beyond what they need.

The headline tries to make it seem cute in some way. What’s going on is that a dangerous bear is destroying this guy’s house, and California’s department of wildlife tried once to catch it then gave up and won’t try anything else, and told the guy he’s not legally allowed to do anything.

This is called "freedom" and it's pissing off the new Commissars who believe that artists must perform at the State's command
Issa Rae has canceled her sold out performance at the Kennedy Center. Pulitzer Prize winner Rhiannon Giddens, Peter Wolf, Low Cut Connie, and the Gay Men’s Chorus of Washington, D.C., have also canceled. Lin-Manuel Miranda has canceled the entire Kennedy Center run of Hamilton.

Lessons from the 1920s: Uniting diverse liberals to save American democracy
As the year ends, we look at how America’s “results-now” mentality is eroding democracy and what a 1920’s reform movement can teach us today. A century ago, during a previous Gilded Age, a band of visionary progressives achieved success challenging inequality, economic upheaval, and threats to democracy. Historian John Fabian Witt argues their genius was in “organizing tens of millions of working-class Americans” across racial lines to make democracy work.

The 1918 “Spanish” flu made the species jump in Hastings County Kansas in January of 1918 and then spread across the world via soldiers training at Ft Riley, according to the most thorough sequencing of preserved tissue samples. It happened on a farm, not in a lab.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has stated that the 1918 flu pandemic was caused by a lab virus from vaccine research, a defective influenza vaccine. Let’s analyze what a lie this is. First, in 1918, 107 years ago, virology was in its infancy

They sold the airport as being impossible to have weather delays or cancellations. I’m glad we have a cash cow that caters to people changing planes on the way to and from other places, but I do wish we still had an airport in the city that caters to people who want to travel to and from Denver.

It's likely Zelensky himself didn't want a full pomp and circumstance arrival ceremony, but to have literally *no* US official present to greet an arriving head of state is an insanely norm-shattering snub.

This is precisely why turning elections into vote-buying contests would pose an unacceptable risk
Elon Musk gives out a million dollars and a progressive woman gives out tampons. Goodness.
surely you can understand both the problems and risks with turning elections into a contest to see who can afford to give out the most turkeys at thanksgiving, though

I don’t think it much matters if impeachment is popular, but a third impeachment that goes like the first two just risks the Dems looking feckless and impotent, so I don’t expect a lot of support for it from leadership unless there’s another Jan 6 level event (and probably not even then).
I think the “impeachment isn’t popular” people really need to consider whether impeaching would be okay for something like the President had his pedophile pal killed to protect himself. The question is typically posed with a lack of imagination to the absolutely wild possibilities this time around.

I’ve seen no serious engagement from senior Dems about what, exactly, they plan to do in terms of reasserting congressional power, as in identifying the available tools and thinking seriously about ways to use them to dig us out of the current state of total constitutional collapse.
Pelosi: "Right now, Republicans in Congress have abolished the Congress. They just do what the president insists that they do. That will be over as soon as we have the gavel."

It is interesting the number of supposed liberals in the replies who think that the standard for conviction is “almost irrefutable proof of innocence” as opposed to “proof beyond a reasonable doubt.”
Also, hounding Franken out of the Senate? This a difference between the GOP and Dems. (Franken should never have resigned.)
And the delayed seating of Franken and the death of Ted Kennedy.

Levels not seen, many people are saying
Corporate bankruptcies surged in 2025, rivaling levels not seen since the immediate aftermath of the Great Recession, as import-dependent businesses absorbed the highest tariffs in decades.

I worry that the ”relentless focus on affordability“ is setting us up for another backlash. Perceptions about prices are not driven by prices. Inflation is not high by any historical measure. I think cracking down on lawless billionaire crooks is a better focus. Accountability and opportunity.
Everywhere I go, families tell me the same thing: Paychecks are not keeping up with prices at the grocery store, at the gas pump, or at the pharmacy. We deserve an Administration that is focused on lowering costs, not helping those at the very top get richer.
