CBS NEWS: “We can’t report on the current murdering spree until we get the serial killer’s side of the story.”

This is NYT headline morning after JD’s grotesque hot blast of white supremacist nativism at Turning Point’s hate-fest?!

Everyone needs to watch this. If only to learn first hand what our government illegally did to these men. But also to show CBS and Weiss that the truth will get out.

This has always been a Bluesky-first campaign. But as of today, we will no longer be using Twitter. At all. And I'm calling on other candidates to follow suit.

The right, along the Roberts Court, is trying to nullify the Reconstruction amendments guaranteeing equality under the law, in order to restore the Antebellum Constitution, which envisions “liberty” as an eternal aristocracy of race and class (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

I wrote about the conservative quest to restore the "true" Constitution, the Antebellum Constitution, shorn of the egalitarian nonsense in the Reconstruction Amendments, a document that replaces equality with a society of dominators and the dominated. www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

We need safer streets in Denver. And yes, even if it means inconveniencing drivers just a bit to make our city safer and more livable for all. @westword.com apple.news/AkBxqWWOhPS6...

this is a good reminder of how things that are shitty but have been accepted as normal and inevitable can actually turn out to be abnormal and evitable with some science, time, education and political will

Blue states need to start serious conversations about rebuilding government leadership at the state, or multi-state, level. We need government leadership, leaving everything to every individual is foolish and if the federal system can't guarantee support, then states need to step in to fill the gap.

In 2014 during the net neutrality wars, Obama voiced his support for net neutrality. Republicans REPEATEDLY, for YEARS, (falsely) claimed this was an illegal, unethical affront to FCC independence. 11 years later they now insist the FCC has no independence and serves at the whims of our mad king:

Gutting science, retreat from world stage, rolling back of rights, and on and on… It’s something to consider that my kids were born at the earliest stages of American decline. At the start of a century to feature world chaos and American power decline with declining standards of living at home.

I remember talking in 2002/3 that we should invest to develop green tech, not wars, and end our addiction to Middle East oil. Now >20 years later we’re apparently about to invade Venezuela for their oil. Imagine if over these >20 yrs we’d put the $T’s into energy tech instead of the military.

In a bike lane with all the safety gear, still killed by a driver. A wife widowed and two young kids without a father just before the holidays. It doesn’t have to be this way. #bikesky 6abc.com/post/forrner...

What a great convo tonight in Denver with @thewaroncars.bsky.social @sgoodyear.bsky.social @brooklynspoke.bsky.social. And thank you @kylec.bsky.social we’re lucky to have you here in Denver.

Absurdly ridiculous. It's Quite remarkable how far they will go to truly hurt a smaller vulnerable population for no reason. Literally nobody asked for this, TNR sucks. But any change, meant to help anyone is "woke".

If you want safer streets in Denver, consider signing the petition from the West Wash Park Neighborhood Association, asking DOTI to restore their original final plan to make Alameda Avenue safer. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScjgX8BU-DyZpPd9qgi4P8oEthfVCHaR-Wdqc2-aFs1MGEWEw/viewform

“Why did the DOS revert from Calibri? It became too woke.”

If a country seizes some oil tanker, isn’t that just piracy?

Dems in disarray

Polis encouraged Coloradans to follow two controversial online personalities, saying they do “actual thinking.” One used to write for a white supremacist publication, the other has posted in defense of sex crimes: westword.com/news/colorado-gov-promotes-white-supremacist-pedo-defender-40815741/

@nytpitchbot.bsky.social the real winner in tonight’s Miami mayoral race? Florida Governor Ron DeSantis.

Post-pandemic, we actively moved our office to a downtown co-working space as part of our sustainability plan commitments. Since then, I’ve had multiple colleagues try the RTD train multiple times, deal with significant, sometimes multi-hour delays, and eventually give up and now regularly drive.

I think the “aesthetics NIMBY” is my favorite NIMBY. I remember the same argument against a bike lane that would defile a beautiful street… lined on both side with fume belching cars. But sure, explain to me how slim cones or a small sign ruins aesthetics, which is more important than safety.

Sure… meanwhile I’m toiling over the redraft of our 50 person organization’s conflicts of interest policy.

On the bright side, I got in an unexpected 4.5 mile bike ride, which is actually faster door to door than the train anyway.

What a fun Denver RTD update to get when checking the schedule minutes before leaving.

I can’t believe a technical solution to a complex social problem didn’t work. Ah well, nevertheless

Yet the media isn’t hyperventilating about why 80-yo POTUS obviously needs regular IV (or something) for several months and is apparently getting MRIs? But in 2026 I'm sure we'll see the debut of a new book about how questions of Biden's health reshaped how we look at the presidency.

Ending DEI practices in college admissions will expose an uncomfortable truth. Women now outperform men academically. If universities stop trying to gender balance incoming classes but instead admit based on merit, they’ll reject men at higher rates than they do today.

A Palantir billionaire just called for public hangings. “It's time to bring back masculine leadership to protect our most vulnerable,” writes Joe Lonsdale. This is where Silicon Valley authoritarianism is heading: www.thenerdreich.com/joe-lonsdale...

But I thought it was just simply neighbors raising concerns? 🙄 After five years of work & community support for a safer street near a local school, an ultra wealthy resident hired a lobbyist & got 100 neighbors to sign on to derail the Denver Alameda Ave safety project. Shameful DOTI.

"When there’s no war, you aren’t committing war crimes when you kill people indiscriminately. You’re just a straight-up murderer."

Democrats need to lay the groundwork for reform by attacking the villains on the Supreme Court - loudly, angrily, personally, relentlessly. And they should start now. paulwaldman.substack.com/p/democrats-...

looking up the World Cup Draw realizing it's on Fox, that Fox will have all the WC Coverage in the US, and the Fox Coverage immediately cuts to shots of Trump and Infantino... honestly don't know how I'm going to endure the 26WC. It's going to be brutal and infuriating.

IRW — a Pulitzer-winning nonprofit newsroom at American — and @thebarbedwire.com traced the history of anti-trans legislation. Houston conservatives realized homophobia didn’t fly anymore, weaponized girls’ safety, and parroted segregationist language. It worked. thebarbedwire.com/2025/12/04/a...

Such a galling convo for 1st :20. Sick of hearing “leftist students” are such a free speech menace w no mention of TPUSA lists attempts to fire teachers & librarians over pronouns & gay penguin books, or literal state governments regulating academic speech. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

In the outrage over the second boat strike being a criminal act, one thing we shouldn’t lose sight of is that the FIRST boat strike was a criminal act.

The biggest question in American politics right now is that even if Democrats manage to reseize the federal government in 2028, there is no concrete plan about what to do with the Republican Party that has made illiberalism and authoritarianism the foundation of its movement for the last decade.

A corrupt president pardons a corrupt member of Congress for corrupt reasons. With multiple guilty pleas establishing a bribery-laundering scheme, Hakeem Jeffries still called the case “thin” and sought cover in a bribery-plagued Supreme Court. A lesson in squandering potential inroads with voters.

WALZ: “.. Donald Trump’s calling our Somali neighbors ‘garbage’ and calling the state of Minnesota a ‘hellhole’. I’m assuming it’s unprecedented for a United States President. .. We’ve got little children going to school today, their president called them ‘garbage’.”

This is seriously bonkers. 1) People are so weird. 2) the sycophancy of chatbots is really going to cause so many problems. apple.news/ALA_GSr7tRQS...

We're proud to announce our newest endorsement: @melatkirosco.bsky.social in #CO01! A barista & renter—who lost her job as a lawyer for defending pro-Palestine protests—Melat knows Denver's struggles because she's lived them. #CO01 needs a leader powered by courage, not corporations.

Christopher Rufo is just a white supremacist, and I think it’s silly that we’re still doing news stories where he’s called a conservative activist or some other harmless sounding term.

Thank you 9NewsDenver @kylec.bsky.social @spencersoicher.bsky.social for covering this story about Denver DOTI walking back community supported plans for safer streets based on the voice of a few wealthy residents. www.instagram.com/reel/DRys6r-...

I wish I'd bookmarked all the charts, graphs, and articles over the last decade + that show how Reagan broke America. The list is astounding and basically in every aspect of life the policy decisions of Reagan have created the messes we're dealing with today.

Michael Dell’s $ for “Trump Accounts” shouldn’t be applauded. It’s actually a sign of our great policy failures since 1980 and the concentration of wealth. We should rely on billionaire benevolence for meager wealth.

Over and over, the NYT amplifies Trump's damaging and cruel propaganda. This was egregious, set in large type and plastered at the top of the website. I fixed it for them, but they should NOT be printing this, ahem, garbage.

A second illustration in a week for why colleges should have to follow strict amateur athletics rules and divest from their professional sports businesses.

Universities should be forced to follow strict rules for amateur athletics or divest sports programs that resemble professional teams. In several sports, NCAA clubs function equivalent to the Championship, Leagues 1 and 2 in the UK. It’s absurd and has nothing to do with an academic mission.

Finally read “Abundance” this week. I don’t get the progressive hate. Does it miss or gloss over issues? Sure. Is it wrong at a macro-level? No. We should build more housing, transit, clean tech, etc. Well intentioned barriers to building bad things also block us building good things.
