Well folks, it’s happening. The 661-page budget bill is being read aloud, line by line, by a computer program named Eric. Assuming the motion isn’t pulled, this will go on for ~15 hours, and Rep. Bradley (who moved for the bill to be read) can’t leave the chamber except for brief bathroom breaks.

This interview freezeframe makes Mayor Mobolade, Wayne Williams, and I look like you've been called into HR and we have bad news about your future with this company.

Sen. Bennet (D-CO) says he doesn't believe President Trump was rushed into war with Iran by Israel. "No, my assessment is that Donald Trump fell in love with the result of our military capabilities in the Venezuela episode and applied that to a completely different set of circumstances"

Rep Crow (D-CO) on the ceasefire after Trump's threat to end Iran's civilization: "It's a good thing that the President of the United States is saying that he's not going to commit a war crime, but it's actually just stunning to me that we're even having this discussion.. I mean, what the hell?"

DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin is floating the idea of turning Denver International (DIA) into DA if Denver won't assist with deportations. (It still won't be DEN to me. Sorry, DIA)

Buy a Korean spice viburnum. Plant it near a window or a door. Enjoy the sweet smell of cloves, vanilla, and spiced honey every Spring. There’s nothing like it. You’re welcome.

The furious shin-kicking scrum of small bodies that moves in no particular direction. The occasional breakaway, sometimes toward the correct goal. The post match snacks. Running the tunnel of parents’ arms. Did I mention the snacks? Soccer season is here again.

$15,000 raised tonight to rebuild the City Park band stand on top of the $40,000 that Word of Thanks Fund donors will contribute. Goodness and community always outweigh the loudest and angriest voices on social media. Every time.

JUST IN: President Trump said in a prime time address that the U.S. was close to ending its war in Iran but would spend the next 2 to 3 weeks bombing the country "back to the stone ages."

Let's rebuild Denver's City Park bandstand after the 1929 landmark and centerpiece of City Park Jazz was destroyed by fire. Word of Thanks Fund donors will contribute about $40,000 in microgiving to start. I'll match the next fifty $5 donations: denverparktrust.networkforgood.com/projects/298...

Everyone and their daughter is at the @denversummitfc.bsky.social home opener. Incredible atmosphere. Smashed the NWSL attendance record with 63,004. Been lucky to see some great moments in sports, but lifting my daughter up to see a scoring opportunity in stoppage time is right up there.
