Fear has a way of being contagious.

But courage is also contagious.

Trump hates this portrait that Republicans fundraised for. It hangs in the Colorado Capitol.

Be a shame if we shared it around.

Disappointed that state Senator Marc Catlin of Montrose voted against a resolution to condemn the Trump pardons of the violent January 6th insurrectionists. Western Colorado deserves better. #copolitics #coleg #sd5

Trump releasing water is flooding farms, depleting a scarce resource, and it did nothing, nothing at all, for the contained fires in LA.

He is a snake oil salesman.

For my #coolitucs peeps, this is like releasing water from Green Mountain to fight a fire east of I-25.

I assure you:

“The resistance” has not “faded into the resignation.”

Regardless of what the media is now saying.

They wish.

Yeah, he’s not a historian. He’s a computer engineer who has cobbled together some incredibly dumb claims about history and apparently convinced even dumber people that they somehow make sense.

You know… many moons ago, I worked for a direct advertising ad agency.

You know—commercials that have you call “1-800…” to subscribe or donate or buy something.

That’s not how I ever imagined the US Presidency.

How humiliating.

Small-town America voted heavily in Donald Trump’s favor—but several core second-term policies that Trump and the Republican Congress have championed could disproportionately harm those places, Ronald Brownstein writes. theatln.tc/rCwjYZdq

Brrr 🥶. Driving into Gunnison to get groceries, the temperature always drops about 20° from home. It is the tundra!
Gunnison’s high temp of just 4° today appears to be their coldest November high temperature on record.

Records in Gunnison date to 1893.

Yes, Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong has asked CNN commentator/Trump defender Scott Jennings to join the LA Times editorial board, but that’s not the most alarming news out of Oliver Darcy’s interview with the LA Times owner
