THE SWAMP IN THE ROCKIES: How Colorado Democrats Funneled $6.6M of Your Money into a Colleague's Family Business

It’s the kind of corrupt, swamp-style math that makes your stomach turn.

Before Representative Lorena García was appointed to the Colorado legislature in January 2023, her nonprofit—the Colorado Statewide Parent Coalition (CSPC)—had collected a grand total of $12,990 in state funding over five years. But the moment she walked into the Capitol? The taxpayer-funded floodgates swung wide open.

Since taking office, García's nonprofit has raked in a jaw-dropping $6.64 million in state payments—representing 99.8% of every single dollar the group has ever received from the state since 2018.

Here is how the money exploded once she got power:

Before Office (2018–2022): $12,990 total

First Year in Office (2023): $316,598

Second Year (2024): $1.4+ Million

Third Year (2025): $2.8 Million

First Six Months of 2026: $2+ Million

A Family Affair Funded by You
While millions in state funds poured into the nonprofit, García and her family made sure to take their cut.

In 2024, García drew a cool $132,000 salary as the CEO of the nonprofit.

Her father was paid $100,250 over two years.

Her mother was paid $25,750 over the same period.

To make matters worse, independent auditors flagged a "material weakness" in the organization’s internal controls in 2024—the exact same year they were tasked with managing and re-granting millions in public funds.

The Ultimate Conflict of Interest
This isn't just about massive payouts; it’s a masterclass in political self-dealing. While García sat on the House Finance Committee shaping the budget of the Department of Early Childhood (the very agency writing her nonprofit's checks), she hired a lobbying firm to push bills she personally authored on the House floor!

She sponsored child care and tax credit bills, while her paid lobbyist worked the rooms to get them passed. When caught, García’s excuses were insulting. She claimed she only needs to recuse herself if money flows directly to her organization, actively voting on other bills affecting her funding agency, and even bizarrely deflected by pointing fingers at Republican colleagues.

The worst part? Colorado Democrats are actively protecting the swamp.When an amendment was introduced to stop state agencies from giving advance grant payments to nonprofits that employ sitting legislators, 13 Senate Democrats voted against it to shield their own. García even had the audacity to call the anti-corruption amendment a "direct and personal attack" on her.

This is the state of Colorado's leadership: a ruling class that views taxpayer funds as a private piggy bank, writes the laws to benefit their own pockets, and weaponizes their votes to keep the cash flowing.

How much longer will Colorado voters allow Democrats to police themselves while laughing all the way to the bank?

These are the losers in Colorado. They build nothing, that make nothing, they only have grievance and envy. These twats are why downtown Denver is a mess…

[Robby Starbuck @robbystarbuck]

People can laugh but don’t underestimate these people. In only a few years, these weirdos seized control of the city where this photo was taken (Denver). They mostly don’t have kids. Socialism and communism are their child and they’ll die for it like we’d die for our actual kids.

If you want to beat them longterm, the silent majority must see them as threats to our kids lives, because they are. Only then will we have the fortitude to dismantle them. And you’re going to have to drop the silent part of "silent majority"…. Because to beat communists, you must overrun them, you must be louder, you must be stronger, you must be more vicious like a lion protecting their young and you must be just as willing to sacrifice.

In case you are wondering how Colorado has turned to 💩 you can start with arguably the worst Colorado legislator.

[Mr T 2 @GovtsTheProblem]

CNBC just ranked Colorado the 49th worst state for cost of living in the US.
Only California was worse.
Blame Jared Polis(D) and the Colorado Democrats.
They did this to you, Colorado.

A decade ago, Denver had 35% of its commercial real estate occupied by energy companies.

Today that number is 7%.

But it doesn’t stop there…

The Wall Street Journal just published a story saying downtown Denver is the most vacant of any major city in the U.S.

So why is that?

Look no further than the far-left socialist agenda that Denver Democrats have used to chase out energy production, small businesses, big corporations, and hardworking families alike.

Their statewide policies have already ruined Colorado, just imagine how much worse it will be if they get elected and sent to Washington.

Inflation is a five-alarm emergency when it's time to pad the salaries of elected officials, an 18.2% "cost-of-living adjustment" they simply must have to survive rising prices.

But when a landlord faces that exact same inflation, rising fuel, insurance, labor, and repair costs, suddenly inflation is imaginary, and rents must be frozen solid.

So in Mamdani's New York, inflation is real for politicians and a myth for property owners. The cost of living rises for the people who govern, but never for the people who house the city.

One rule for the guys setting the rules. Another for everyone forced to live under them. The commissars get their raise. The producers get a freeze.

Somewhere, an economics textbook is filing a missing-persons report.

[Bill Ackman @BillAckman]

.@NYCMayor Mamdani’s appointed advisory commission is recommending an 18.2% raise for himself and other elected officials purportedly because of inflation, yet his self-appointed Rent Guidelines Board — which is supposed to consider inflation in setting rents— froze rents for two years.

A question for the mayor:

How is this fair or appropriate?

[Bill Ackman @BillAckman]

The best evidence that @NYCMayor Mamdani has not held a job is the fact that he is sitting on the wrong side of the desk.

And listen to his words. On a day when we, and in particular, our leaders should be celebrating the 250 years of our nation’s history, he attacks us and what makes our country great.

Mamdani and the Democratic Socialists are grave threats to our present and our future.
