From The (LGBTQ) Center on Colfax: Saturday morning, an individual threw a large rock and attempted to shatter three of our front windows. The incident triggered our alarm system, and the person fled before police arrived. Security footage captured video and images of the attack. It was purposeful.

Greeley Protest: 'Where's That Evans Guy?' About 100 activists rally in downtown Greeley.

This underrated paper not only blasts the Big Ugly Bill but calls for common sense: "Congress should take this opportunity to avoid the imminent catastrophe they’ve created by clawing into Medicaid, and create a national single-payer, public option"

Stupidest @npr.org story I've ever heard. THIS is what they find outrageous? @cprnews.bsky.social

Rep Hurd trying to please Trump, a constituency of one, not his constituents

In Denver it’s joyous protesting as far as you can see!!!

I just moved from Brevard County Florida to Denver, CO. This was my sheriff. I will protest today in Denver, and pray for my friends who are protesting in Brevard. www.usatoday.com/story/news/n...

ICE crossed a line in LA

A detail that encapsulates the depraved, corrupt depths to which America has descended, from @denverpost.com story about ICE's courthouse arrests: "Three vans from the GEO Group — a private prison company in charge of the ICE facility in Aurora — were standing by."

Since Republicans are lying about their budget bill cutting people off Medicaid and cutting Medicare, a couple of things: there's almost *no* 'waste, fraud, or abuse' in safety net programs like Medicare and Medicaid - multiple studies have found it around 2%.

Mark Stevens' Alison Coil books are some of my favorite mysteries, he's a fabulous Colorado author - give 'em a read! This different kind of book gets a rave review

Gov Polis just vetoed a bill that would've helped consumers by banning surprise bills from ambulances. His lame justification was easily disproven:

When you care more for your tech bros than the safety of you constituents! www.cbsnews.com/colorado/new...

Pande fled the Congo after he said he was imprisoned, tortured and targeted for assassination by a corrupt government. He’s among Coloradans who have been granted asylum but are looking at uncertain futures amid deviations in handling green card apps. For @denverpost.com.

I want to shake every republican voter by the shoulders and yell WTF DID YOU THINK WAS GONNA HAPPEN TO YOUR HEALTH CARE

Many perspectives in this thorough story from @codaleynews.bsky.social & @caitlynkim.bsky.social and Gabe Evans continues to be a horrible human being

Democrats, nonprofit advocates and health providers from across Colorado on Wednesday slammed U.S. Rep. Gabe Evans’ vote in favor of a Republican plan to reduce Medicaid spending by an estimated $625 billion over the next 10 years. By @chasewoodruff.bsky.social

Oh FFS this is such a blatant LIE! They've been talking about work requirements for months

“Whether it’s music or a free press — censorship anywhere is a threat to the truth everywhere. On World Press Freedom Day, I’m sending a shout-out to the brave journalists at Radio Free Europe,” Michael Stipe says of the release of a new remix of R.E.M.'s iconic debut single

It is April 15… tax day. A day I firmly believe should hold significance for people who love this country and want it to succeed. But that was before a madman took the reins and is seemingly hellbent on destroying everything I hold dear. We must resist. We must make our voices heard.

Protect Coloradans’ health care We are facing a reality where health coverage for 1 in 5 Coloradans is in jeopardy. Congressional discussions are underway to significantly defund Medicaid, which is a lifeline to many Coloradans. Making $880 billion in rushed cuts to healthcare programs covering…

Gov. Jared Polis says potentially deep Medicaid cuts "would mean losing access to lifesaving care with devastating consequences." www.cpr.org/2025/04/14/p...

CO media wrote stories this week practically handing Bennet the Gov's race but oooo those comments sections 😬

This interview provides deep insight into why the Democratic Party is stone useless in the face of a fascist takeover. Ominous that Bennet can frame the '24 election as some good faith contest where Democrats deserved their fate and still be viewed as the odds-on fav for governor.

GOP just voted to decimate Medicaid so the rich get their tax breaks

It really is this straightforward. There's never a policy, only this one person's derangement. The stupendous tragedy is that so many others empowered the lunacy to destroy a country.

This is truly fucked up - and fixable #copolitics #coleg

Happy One Month Anniversary to this story.

I'd feel safer if Leo, Fitz & Nancy McNally were in the Sit Room, not these clowns on the weekend on cellphones getting left by the check-out, grabbed by grandson or dropped in toilet

@coloradonewsline.com says there's winners/losers. The winners? "Republicans plan to extend the 2017 tax cuts they enacted during Trump’s first term to the tune of about $4.5 trillion. They want to boost spending on defense and border security by 100s of billions of $ and rewrite energy policy"

@laurachapin.bsky.social I think you posted that Rick Enstrom recently tweeted "Imagine cheering on that little shit bird instead of your own country." Who was he referring to?
