If you think @philweiser.bsky.social and @michaelbennet.bsky.social offer no contrasts, you're simply not paying attention. The latter is billionaire-backed for a reason. #COpol

PERRY: State legislators run the home-school gravy train off the taxpayer tracks, finally ‘State-taxpayer-funded fun clubs and activities for homeschool kiddos have reached Trumpian Ballroom proportions’ sentinelcolorado.com/opinion/perr... #EDcolo #COleg #Education

Here's another difference: @philforcolorado.bsky.social will support public schools. @michaelbennet.bsky.social supports school privatization. @npeaction.bsky.social #COpol #COleg

“Keystone Education Services is literally a brand new, made-up entity dabbling in messy legal technicalities, much like Riverstone Academy was,” (Hannah McDowell) said. “And look how all that turned out: lawsuits, safety violations, damaged reputations, and outrageous amounts of money wasted.”

So nice to see there's a limit to what Coloradans will accept when it comes to the line between church and state. #COleg #COpol

I like my congressman, @crow.house.gov, but I left the box next to his name unmarked on my ballot. Very disappointed in his endorsement of @bennet.senate.gov over @philforcolorado.bsky.social Should have remained neutral on this one. #COpol

Bennet may have been Superintendent of DPS, but he wasn't a supporter. He closed neighborhood schools, expanded high stakes testing, increased charter schools. Then he was rude to those who pushed back. @philforcolorado.bsky.social is the public school champion in this race. #PhilforGovernor

Why would Michael Bloomberg give @michaelbennet.bsky.social campaign $4.6 million? Because Bloomberg and his billionaire friends want Colorado controlled by a loyal charter industry/school choice supporter. Vote to support public schools. Vote @philweiser.bsky.social #COpol #COleg

Spoiler alert: Colorado earned an overall C grade and a C for privatization. Keep that in mind when choosing between privatization supporter @michaelbennet.bsky.social and public ed supporter @philforcolorado.bsky.social #COpol #COleg

Please read this from someone who was at DPS when #MichaelBennet was there. The devil is in the details and they're ugly. @a4pep.bsky.social @cocharterwatch.bsky.social @mcolorado.bsky.social

Hey, @colorado.gov Why do other Dem governors understand Trump's tax-credit program is a scam? #COleg #COpol

This is even more worse than the Manny Rutinel ads that suggest he's endorsed by Pope Leo. Obama has not endorsed @michaelbennet.bsky.social in his bid for gov. #COpol

Check out this deep dive into @michaelbennet.bsky.social campaign cash to see how deeply tied he is to charter schools and fans of privatized education. @philweiser.bsky.social #COpol

"The (pro-Bennet super PAC's) second-biggest contributor ... is Brighter Future for Colorado, a 'dark money' nonprofit that does not disclose its donors. The Colorado Trial Lawyers Association and the Colorado League of Charter Schools are also among the top donors to Rocky Mountain Way." #COpol

Durango Herald endorses @philweiser.bsky.social over @michaelbennet.bsky.social #COpol

"(Board President Consuelo Redhorse) argued that local officials are better positioned than a state agency like the Colorado Charter School Institute to understand the unique needs of Summit County students." #COleg #COpol

The co-founder of Denver-based LearningSpring, Alex Paul, is a Bennet for Governor campaign contributor. @michaelbennet.bsky.social @philweiser.bsky.social #COpol

There was little talk of education (a primary state budget obligation) at Dem debate, but it should be obvious @michaelbennet.bsky.social is an "existential threat" to Colorado public education. @marshallglasses.bsky.social @kylec.bsky.social @philweiser.bsky.social

"More than half of Bennet’s super PAC donations are from billionaires, individuals and groups affiliated with organizations run by billionaires, and from a “dark money” group." #COpol #COleg

"Emails obtained by Chalkbeat show the school was created at the behest of a conservative law firm to spark such a lawsuit after the Supreme Court deadlocked on a similar case out of Oklahoma last spring." #COleg #COpol

“At least two of the state’s new superintendent appointees ... also worked for the controversial Colorado-based charter network Third Future Schools, which (Mike) Miles led prior to becoming superintendent in Houston. #COpol #COleg

"That’s not 'free money.' It’s public revenue rerouted through a nonprofit intermediary and handed back to the public with a new label on it." @colorado.gov @michaelbennet.bsky.social @philweiser.bsky.social #COpol

"Board member Joan Anderssen said she had been aware of a possible charter application during her campaign in 2025, and had asked constituents if they felt the need for a new charter school in LPS, but she didn’t hear any support for it." #COpol #COleg

Not a Republican voter, but watching @kylec.bsky.social and @marshallglasses.bsky.social moderate the GOP gov debate is like watching a master class.

Billionaires love education privatization. Billionaires love Bennet. #COpol #COleg

Hey, Colorado: Pay attention to the first-rate research done in our own state: "The consequences for public education, taxpayer accountability, and civil rights protections of this new era will be profound." #COpol #COleg

How to address education funding shortfalls? Open more charter schools, of course. #COleg #COpol

Good news: "The department is currently conducting an audit of Riverstone’s authorizer — Education reEnvisioned Board of Cooperative Educational Services, or ERBOCES — and could eventually claw back funding given to Riverstone." #COleg #COpol

"This accountability is what makes charter public schools unique and welcome to parents, lawmakers and taxpayers." Riiiight. Never mind that charter schools close with little notice or students wander off with no one noticing.

It's "school's choice" not "school choice." A warning from Florida and a preview of the discrimination we'll see with @colorado.gov Polis' federal voucher/tax dodge buy-in. #COpol #COleg

No worries. @colorado.gov Polis is still welcome at any and all charter school confabs. School voucher rallies, too. #COpol #COleg

How Charter Schools Fleece Taxpayers #COleg #COpol

This suggests a gov/senate job swap was originally on the table. That should be “disqualifying” for Bennet.

With little notice, the Jackson-Madison Co. (TN) school board has approved a “faith-based Christian” charter school to be sponsored by Union University, a Baptist institution. The school stands a chance of becoming first openly religious charter school in US. www.christianpost.com/news/school-...

Why has NYC billionaire Michael Bloomberg donated $2.5 million to @michaelbennet.bsky.social? They both love charter schools and ed privatization. Our neighborhood schools need @philforcolorado.bsky.social #COpol #COleg
