Watching “Regan” tonight and can’t think of a better way to get ready for the 250th bday of the great USA

Today you will read many sympathetic media stories about B.P.J., the male athlete who challenged WV’s law and lost at SCOTUS.

I’m guessing none will mention that B.P.J. defeated 470+ girls 1,400+ times (including a state title) and sexually harassed our client Adaleia (pictured) in the girls’ locker room. Sadly, Adaleia stopped playing the school sports she loved due to B.P.J.’s ongoing presence in girls’ sports and spaces.

But we’ll probably be lucky if those girls get even a passing mention—let alone a front-page photo.

This has been the pattern on this issue from far too many institutions of power. Boys’ feelings are the focus. Girls’ safety, fairness, and opportunity take a back seat.


I’m so thankful today that the Supreme Court reversed that pattern, acknowledged the reality of biological sex, and remembered the girls.

As a general rule, anytime Barack Obama lectures the country or its people on their purported sins—with Khalil Gibran pop platitudes—he is seeking absolution for his own obsessions by projecting his own guilty desires onto others.

The latest? At the dedication of his narcissistic Obama Presidential Center in Chicago—a $850 million flak-tower, monolithic boondoggle mired in debt—Obama lectured us on the need to resist the allure off "money, attention, [and] fame."

Thus spoke the owner of four homes, three of them multimillion-dollar mansions, whose last inert year in office was spent closing book and Netflix deals that ensured he would become a multimillionaire the moment he left office, and on spec, jets private to sermonize to various audiences–often at $400,000 a shot—on their own false-consciousness shortcomings.

Plain-speaking, frugal Harry Truman in obscure retirement in Independence, Missouri Obama certainly is not.

@SenatorHick If it requires someone else’s labor it is not a right.

@DanielTurnerPTF @Heminator I’m beginning to think the education system is pumping out blue voter everywhere. And then we are “importing” blue voters into purple states and turning them blue. And every form of media seems to be bent blue, too.

@MichaelBennet Pass the SAVE act! You can make our elections secure. And support free speech - even for your political enemies.

[Barbara Canaday @Babsc99]

@SenatorHick Pass the SAVE act to ensure election integrity. I’m so glad to see you are concerned for our elections. Please consider supporting free speech, too. Especially of those you disagree with.

HB26-1322 flips reality on its head.

Telling a child: “You’re fine just as you are. You were created with purpose.” —now that’s labeled “conversion therapy.”

But pushing kids toward irreversible hormones and surgeries? That’s called “care.”

We’re ignoring what the data shows:
60–90% of kids resolve these feelings naturally.

Instead of protecting them, we’re turning confusion into a medical pipeline.

That’s not compassion.
That’s harm.

I stand against HB26-1322

Colorado is now requiring lawyers in the State, as a condition of logging into its court e-filing system, to promise not to cooperate with federal authorities in enforcing federal immigration law.

Please understand:
- I do not practice immigration law.
- I do not practice criminal law.
- Nothing about my civil practice has anything to do with this.

And yet because I cannot log into the State's official e-filing system without saluting The Resistance, I now cannot represent my clients, file lawsuits, access cases, file documents in existing cases, etc.

If I click "Decline," it kicks me out of the system. I must click "Accept" to access the system and continue representing my civil clients -- again, in cases that have absolutely nothing to do with immigration law or policy.

I've read SB 25-276 (the law referred to below). It does not regulate me as a private attorney or any of the clients I represent in civil matters. This is outrageous draconian overreach.

I have ethical obligations to my clients to represent them competently. My existing cases have running deadlines that I must attend to. Judges issue orders in my cases that I must follow. If I don't click "Accept" in order to access the State's e-filing system, I will harm my clients, torpedo my practice, and probably commit malpractice. So, I have no choice.

I'm clicking "Accept" under protest.

@RepJasonCrow Are you saying she was guilty of saying something you didn’t like? Well fortunately speech is still protected. The court just ruled her sentenced was partially based on her speech and that is not allowed. How about you pass the SAVE act and ensue election integrity

381k foreign students authorized to work in ONE YEAR. No cap. No test.

And when they convert to H-1B, their spouse gets authorized too.

Let us put American college students first. No financial incentives to hire foreigners.

We need to fix this back door to feed H-1B.

This is from a very concerned parent in the Springs…. @CSPDPIO @CSFDPIO @MayorofCOS can you guys help!??

To give context, I live in the Old Colorado City neighborhood of Colorado Springs or the West Side. We have a local non-denominational left wing liberal church, The Sanctuary Church, that brings dozens of homeless into the neighborhood. The church has these people set up directly across from an elementary school. The church is only open 10-2 daily and then leaves the homeless to do whatever they want for the rest of the 20 hours a day.
Last week I found a freshly smoked crack pipe not 100ft from where pre-schoolers we're having recess.
I've contacted city council, the police, and the church themselves with no one caring that there's dozens of homeless men camping out directly across from an elementary/ junior high. It feels like at this point a child will have to be hurt or overdose for anyone to take action.
You seem to care and I'm hoping you could possibly help me get something done to protect children from rampant homelessness, drug use, and mental illness.
Here are some photos to show what's going on, I have to be careful while taking pictures because they will attack anyone filming or photographing.

This is all within 100 ft of an elementary school and it's sad to see toddlers and parents having to walk by this everyday. If I didn't report that crack pipe I could only imagine what could have happened if a kid had found it...... please help, if possible.

@kodythewxguy Thanks so much! You are the best thing on X and the main reason I log on each day.

@Hickenlooper How about we get rid of some of the “fees” in CO?

[Barbara Canaday @Babsc99]

@SenatorHick Please reconsider and vote yes on the save act

In a review of a sample of CO's claims to Medicaid for autism therapy, 100%‼️ of them were improper payments or overpayments!*

The Medicaid fraud here in CO is just as bad as in MN
