It's been 1 year since my father passed. I originally shared these thoughts back on the old site, but thought I'd share it here today with many new faces on this much kinder app
My father passed away on Nov 24, 2023. His life epitomized the American Dream—a dream that often seems elusive today. 🧵

Throwback to August 2023 when I predicted the Douglas County Blue shift because Republicans were running on an agenda to defund schools.

Chuck Schumer and folks who supported him like Hickenlooper must be ousted.
We've had enough with corporate donor backed Democrats. It's time to elect a Senator from Colorado who will actually fight for the working class.

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.

The only reason Bennet & Hickenlooper didn’t bend the knee to Trump to reopen his corrupt government with zero wins for the public is b/c they’re scared of left primary challengers
That’s why every establishment Democrat needs a real, hard primary in 2026. Keep the pressure on

Keep the SWAMP out of Colorado. We must reject DC's dysfunction and keep Michael Bennet and his billionaire backers out of Colorado's Governor's seat.

Phil Weiser has done more for working-class Coloradans in a day than Michael Bennet has in 16 years in the Senate.
This primary should be an easy win for Phil if not for Bennet’s Billionaire backers like Bloomberg and the AI Venture Firms trying to buy the gov's mansion

The biggest winners from this Democratic corruption scandal should be the Colorado GOP but they’re dead silent.
Why? Because the same dark-money donors bankrolling One Main Street and the Opportunity Caucus also fund Republicans. Everyone’s bought. #copolitics

Folks in my DMs that some Caucus members are about to flip on other members over these so-called “gifts” (aka bribes).
This is about to turn into a Veep x Parks & Rec level meltdown. Expect hearings, resignations, & primary flips. I've never seen such blatant corruption!

Colorado WILL join California's Prop 50 efforts in Nov 2026
We won't be able to redraw them next year, but we will for 2028. There's already a small crew working on this. Let's get organized and get the signatures to get this done.
It's time to fight and take our country back.

General note on Colorado elections:
Clerks count the early-vote first so the 7pm drop skews older & more conservative. The shift from to last drop can be up to 15-20%
So if the first drop is within 10-15%, results may change. More than 15%, you can call it right away IMO
