When DSA candidate Melat Kiros shouts out, "We are winning from coast to coast, in all levels of office, we are taking our party & our country back!"
I'll remind her:
America is NOT your country. It was NEVER your party, & Socialism & communists have NO PLACE in America!
GTFO
🚨 BREAKING: JD Vance just sent a message to the DOJ - you must prosecute the Obama Deep State for Trump-Russia after Tulsi Gabbard exposed it, or it will happen again.
“I don't know how anybody can look at that and say that there wasn't aggressive violations of the law... We have got to have consequences for it, or we're just going to see the same play repeated again."
He is 100% correct.
Cuffs, or it happens again.
It could happen to JD.
@Hickenlooper Will Hickenlooper return all compromised campaign donations? It appears ActBlue was knowingly partaking in Foreign Smurfing? Hickenlooper has raised over $30M on the ActBlue platform.
@mrosazza@Hickenlooper He’s worried that he truth really gets out!!! It’s his signature on the legislation when they introduced us to this! He’s so corrupt!
Palestinian students at UNRWA schools:
“Stabbing Jews brings dignity to the Palestinians. We have to stab the Jews. They teach us that Jews are terrorists. I am ready to stab a jew and drive a car over them. I am ready to join ISIS.”
Does this seem like a normal society to you?
Tonight, Phil Weiser and Michael Bennet endorsed the same polices that made Colorado the 3rd most expensive state in the nation to live and work.
Four more years of this and they will make us #1!
They want to eliminate TABOR refunds, tax you more, let our roads deteriorate,protect criminals and undermine parents.
It’s time for a change.
It’s time to restore balance in our state government.
Our new direction starts on Election Day, June 30th!
#itsTime #KirkmeyerForGovernor
I watched both @9NEWS governor debates so you don’t have to.
And wow.
The Republican debate felt like an episode of Law & Order.
The Democrat debate felt like a graduate-level public policy class sponsored by NPR and organic coffee.
Republicans got questions like:
“Let’s discuss every controversial thing you’ve ever said, done, liked, reposted, thought about, or may potentially do sometime before the year 2042.”
Democrats got:
“Can you elaborate further on your housing affordability framework?”
At one point I was waiting for @KyleClark to ask @SenatorBennet and @pweiser whether they preferred sparkling or still water before moving into a discussion on childcare subsidies.
Now, to be fair, both Democrats got challenged.
Bennet took heat over:
• Leaving the Senate
• His Trump cabinet votes
• Who he’d appoint to replace himself
• ICE funding
Weiser took heat over:
• His lawsuits
• His first Trump term record
• Campaign donations
• Whether he governs through litigation
Those are legitimate questions.
But here’s what stood out:
The Republican debate largely focused on the candidates.
The Democrat debate largely focused on governing.
Republicans spent much of the night explaining themselves.
Democrats spent much of the night explaining policy.
One debate was:
“Why should voters trust you?”
The other was:
“Walk us through your implementation strategy.”
One felt like a cross-examination.
The other felt like a dissertation defense.
And before someone says, “Well maybe the Democrats just had better answers…”
That’s not the point.
The point is the questions weren’t the same.
If you’re moderating a governor’s debate, every candidate should be getting grilled on affordability, housing, crime, water, transportation, energy, healthcare, and education.
Not one side getting a political root canal while the other gets a policy workshop.
The funniest part?
The Democrats actually had disagreements worth exploring.
TABOR.
Labor policy.
Healthcare.
Business regulations.
ICE.
Housing.
Yet somehow I learned more about Republican personalities from their debate and more about Democrat policies from theirs.
Almost like the candidates were being viewed through two entirely different lenses.
Weird.
Maybe it’s just one of those incredible coincidences.
Like government finishing a construction project on time.
Or X users reading an article before commenting on it.
Or your ex suddenly reaching out because they “just wanted to see how you’re doing.”
Totally possible.
Anyway, if Colorado voters are going to pick the next governor, maybe everyone should get the same debate format.
Crazy idea, I know.

@COUnfiltered@9NEWS Totally spot on and thanks for the commentary. Rural Colorado is wise to their motives, just not enough numbers. The message has to get through out the front range
