Coloradans want lower costs and affordable health care. Today’s bills failed to address skyrocketing health care premiums caused by the Republican “Big Bad Bill.” So I voted NO.

If free buses are "socialist" then so are...
THE FREE ROADS YOU DRIVE ON EVERY DAY.
Maybe neither of these are actually socialist concepts?
Maybe there's no difference between fare-free transit and not charging your Visa every time you pull out of your driveway?

Bluesky is the girl who sees through your horribleness on the hellsite and knows you can do better and is waiting patiently for you when you do.
This is what I think about in the pit of the hellsite's despair.

It’s mind boggling to me that Congressional Republicans would be willing to run for re-election as “the party that doubled your health insurance costs.” #copolitics www.denverpost.com/2025/10/27/c...
Health insurance premiums to double next year on Colorado’s individual market
The monthly “sticker price” of health insurance is rising, and households will have to pay a larger share of that monthly cost than they have since the pandemic.

You see what is happening, right?
"Antifa" has been designated a domestic terror organization despite the lack of any organization.
All protesters are now referred to as "Antifa."
Therefore all protesters are now...terrorists.
We are on the brink of democracy's destruction.

In the early 1930s, the SA and SS had a strategy of marching in force through leftist neighborhoods of major German cities to incite violence which they then used to justify criminalizing their opposition.

What I will say about the Mike Johnson rumors is there is definitely a fetish out there for diminutive gentlemen with a head flat enough to hold your beer.
It's not mine personally, I'm just saying it exists.

MAGA is a textbook fascist movement.
MAGA's demand that we not call them fascist is an inherently fascist demand.
Calling them fascist is constitutional and does not wish harm on anyone. It means we disagree politically.
This is about the freedom to disagree. #copolitics

I was shocked and staggering from watching Iryna Zarutska's murder play over and over on X. It was every other post for days.
Then came Charlie Kirk's gruesome murder. Over and over.
Millions of people just got hit with some really traumatic programming and it's going to have consequences.

I wish there was an easier way to follow back several thousand people. I guess it’s my fault for not keeping up with this but I had my doubts about this Bluesky thing.

At a gubernatorial candidate forum over the weekend, state Sen. Mark Baisley commented, at length, that his LGBTQ colleagues in the legislature have a "sickness in their minds" and are "in rebellion against God."
This is, at the very least, cause for censure.
