It’s common sense vs crazy.
While I’m focused on creating jobs, my opponent is to fighting to eliminate them.
I’m advocating for our farmers and ranchers, meanwhile my opponent has spent the last decade calling them “horrific.”
The contrast couldn’t be clearer.
Happy Friday Colorado!
Colorado's State and Local Governments have MORE money than ever!
And yet, our roads are in terrible shape!
Colorado's Politicians have been ripping us off by using our tax money to spend on their special interest projects and to pay their political allies.
I don’t think Hickenlooper actually wrote this Substack, but whoever did is terrified that the voting shenanigans in Colorado are going to end.
It states “Trump is trying to intimidate Americans out of voting. He’s discussed training members of his secret police to monitor polling locations.”
There is zero transparency in Colorado Elections so citizens will be watching. Taxation without representation is a founding doctrine of America, and until they prove Colorado Elections are secure, we will never stop doubting they are fake. Democracy dies in Darkness. #copolitics
Let’s talk Colorado fees and taxes. For a $50k new vehicle, your Specific Ownership Tax is $892.50 (50,000 × 85% × 2.1%). That’s BEFORE your ordinary registration fees and surcharges. This is just one example of how much Coloradans are being beat to death by taxes and fees.
Now Dems want to keep your TABOR refunds this fall via Prop NN. Let’s review some more numbers of how much their revenue has increased over the years…. Revenue generated by Colorado fee-based enterprises grew from $742 million in FY1994 to $25.8 BILLION in 2024. It’s also estimated that 74% of state spending was TABOR-exempt in 2024, compared with 46% in 1996.
Share this out and vote NO on Prop NN this fall. They don’t have a revenue problem, they have a spending problem.
🚨THEY JUST HANDED JAMES O’KEEFE EMINEM’S BALLOT
No ID. No questions that mattered. Just “Yup, that’s what it says” and “fill both sides.”
O’Keefe walked into a Detroit polling place, gave the name Marshall Bruce Mathers III, the birthday, and they started processing the ballot of one of the most famous men in America like it was nothing.
That was the flashback. Right now his team is back on the ground in Michigan catching the exact same election crimes on camera.
The loopholes never closed. The same soft system is still wide open. And the same people who swore it was “the most secure election in history” are still running it.
Credit to @JamesOKeefeIII and the O’Keefe Media Group for the receipts.
Michigan patriots — eyes open.
Follow me for more intel drops!
FasTracks was a $4.7 billion light rail expansion that was supposed to take the B line all the way to Longmont. After $5.5 billion, they made it all the way to Westminster and pulled the plug.
The Broncos should have zero faith in RTD’s ability to get fans to the new stadium.
Alicia is correct. Colorado has too many individuals legislating from places of trauma. I have compassion for them but that's not a healthy way to govern.
I recently attended a Pikes Peak Firearms Coalition candidate event where those running for office had the opportunity to introduce themselves. To my surprise, several Democratic candidates showed up, including my opponent in House District 14 and Congressman Jeff Crank’s opponent in Congressional District 5.
It was entertaining to hear so many of them speak about how much they respect the Constitution and the Second Amendment, because anyone with a bit of common sense knows these people won't hesitate to strip our rights away the minute they get into office. They're currently pretending to be "moderate" so they can win red districts over, but I encourage you to look beyond campaign rhetoric and examine their records, endorsements, and the policies they support.
Congressman Crank had a prior commitment so I spoke for him. I thought everyone should know that Jessica Killin recently got endorsed by Giffords, a national anti-gun organization that endorses some of the most radical Democrats.
As I say at the end, don't fall for people who are pretending to be moderate. Vote red this November!
Yara is still claiming without evidence that she faced death threats. She also isn't mentioning her bill that taxes overtime pay or her vote to tax tips.
MARXIST ALWAYS LIE
Colorado just lost another event to Wyoming.
For 16 years the Rocky Mountain Cigar Festival was held in Colorado, drawing thousands of tourists.
But due to Colorado’s anti-tobacco as well as alcohol regulations, the festival is moving to Cheyenne.
The attacks on tobacco, whether it’s flavored tobacco or raising the age of purchase from 18 to 21 are examples of how politicians are increasingly treating us like children.
These nanny-state legislators have been stripping rights away from 18-year-olds and requiring a person be 21 years old in order to live a free and independent life.
This also relates to the bigger issue our society and country is facing around the “prolonged adolescence” of young people today.
It used to be that when you turned 18, you were fully an adult and could live a free and independent life.
Now, young people are being told they are not fully adults until they are 21.
As our political system and society have “pushed back” the age of adulthood, young people have seen their independence eroded.
Of course, the age of marriage and home ownership has also increased, contributing to a prolonged adolescence.
Whether it’s student loans, welfare, medical and housing assistance, young people are more reliant than ever on the government.
So it shouldn’t be surprising that so many young people are voting for big government to become their surrogate parents.
So, how do we reverse course? We give young people their freedom!
