Everyone tell Metro State what you think of their Professor Jason Metter leading violent DSA street riots in Denver. This is a publicly funded upUniversity with your tax dollars!!!#colorado@MetroStateU
Prop NN takes away our tax refunds forever, you know, "for the kids." Yet we have money for free electric bikes, to buy Colorado Public Radio a new building, to give to Sundance film festival... #copolitics
We are finally getting a clearer picture of what happened during COVID. Not because the people who locked us up, masked our faces and forced unproven chemicals into our bodies have suddenly become transparent, but because Anthony Fauci’s COVID-era diary is coming into public view. #copolitics
This long document makes one thing painfully clear: the people who forced us to surrender our lives to their expertise did not have the expertise they claimed.
At best, they were guessing.
And when their guesses failed, they did not retreat. They didn’t come clean. They doubled down.
Arrogance unbridled
Our health, our freedoms, our bodies, our economy, our children’s education were all less important than their unchallenged status as the infallible elite.
Yes, Fauci’s diary shows his arrogance. Yes, he seems incapable of admitting error. Yes, he was willing to make “majestic leaps” ahead of the evidence while insisting the rest of us follow his orders.
But Fauci is merely a symptom of something more dangerous.
Government is at its most powerful and dictatorial precisely when it knows the least.
An unknown crisis arrives — and crisis always involves the unknown — and politicians panic. Bureaucrats come up with “answers.” They tell us foundational rules — individual liberty, open debate, fiscal restraint, bodily autonomy and just plain sense — must be suspended.
Then they spend money they do not have to keep the whole madness alive.
And with the media as cheerleader, they scare the hell out of people to make sure nobody asks uncomfortable questions.
Colorado piles on
Colorado did not merely watch this happen from the sidelines. We did it to ourselves.
Gov. Jared Polis and our local governments put you under house arrest. They closed businesses. They restricted worship. They suspended your right to peaceably assemble. They turned neighbors into hall monitors. They treated people trying to earn a living as dangers to society.
With the press as their enforcers, they canceled people who refused to mask or take their jab as “murderers,” costing many their livelihoods and personal relationships.
Workers were told their jobs were nonessential. You are nonessential!
Families were separated as they had to view their loved ones behind glass windows outside nursing homes.
Kids were told their smiles, their speech and their ability to see other people were somehow less important than obeying unseen adults in centers of governmental power who did not know what they were doing.
And in the cruelest act of all, they robbed children of school.
As the Fauci diaries prove, they knew young people were the least at risk of COVID, yet they injured our young the most.
“Remote learning” was no learning. It was cruel isolation.
For special-needs children like my son who has Down syndrome, it was punishment for a crime they didn’t commit. This crime wasn’t done by Fauci, but by feckless Colorado leaders.
These kids who learn through personal contact, social interaction, speech therapy, occupational therapy and the daily structure of being around other human beings were abandoned.
That lost time cannot be made back in a government program. This theft compounds over a lifetime.
The people who shut down our schools, our world, will say they were following the science. Fauci’s diary ought to make us ask: What science? Whose science?
Media enablers
Why isn’t the press doing with COVID what they did to Nixon after Watergate, ruthlessly asking what did you know and when did you know it?
Because this wasn’t just a mass injustice of government. It was a mass failure of the Fourth Estate.
If the nation’s top COVID bureaucrat was privately acknowledging uncertainty, failure and a lack of meaningful evidence, why did Colorado officials act as if disagreement itself was immoral?
They also used money we did not have.
The Colorado COVID response exploded government spending and pushed more people into government dependence. Medicaid enrollment in Colorado skyrocketed, and now the state faces the bill.
The inflation that followed the federal printing of money was not an act of God. The budget crisis coming to Colorado is not a mystery.
The next unknown crisis will come. And when it does, politicians will again tell us fear requires obedience.
They will again promise safety in exchange for freedom.
They will again insist there is no time for debate, evidence or restraint.
Colorado must remember what happened when we believed them.
OURAY, CO
Ouray Library seems to have turned off their voicemail.
Good, we are making a difference!
Aimee Vann is not only the library director BUT also the PRESIDENT OF THE SCHOOL BOARD!!
Makes complete sense, this is full circle targeting our kids.
First a drag queen show by ‘Mix Trix’ and then they groom the kids at school and put them into the child trans surgery pipeline!
Here is Aimee’s school email, since she turned off the (taxpayer funded) voicemail for the library.

LEAVE OUR KIDS ALONE!!
@colorado_monty
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.
