Today the House Democrats pushed through an assault weapons ban bill, which would take away nearly 85% of all firearms in the state. Further, the Dems limited debate to 5 hours and rejected all of my amendments! The bill is the most egregious assault on our 2d Amendment Rights!

Whatever you know about the Benson Center @CUBoulder , it's worse than you think. Here's the most detailed account yet published of center funding. Yes it's mostly donor-funded. But it takes public money too. And we documented the white nationalist ties of the center's founder.

A chart speaks a thousand op-eds. Crime rates in big Colorado cities, 2020-2023. Red means going up, green means going down. Colorado Springs and Commerce City were the only places still going up significantly in 2023.

Crime rates in Colorado have been on a sustained decline for nearly two years now. If that surprises you, you’re hardly alone, and it’s worth thinking about why. via @dcwoodruff

GOP Rep. Scott Bottoms, a pastor, predicted in a sermon Sunday that CO Democrats will introduce a bill "to make the sexual age of consent 12 years old." He also said some House Democrats are "OK" with child rape and that his political opponents at the Capitol talk to satan.

We discovered this week prominent Colorado election denier Shawn Smith in a video from #January6 . This is the person who at a Thursday gathering of far-right figures called for SOS @JenaGriswold to hang. He's highlighted in this clip from a violent clash during the insurrection.

I've been writing about 14th Amendment disqualification for almost two years, while most people dismissed it. It's incredible now to see the confident hot takes from so many people, especially other journalists, who have absolutely no idea what they're talking about.

It begins. @RMGunOwners announced it's suing Superior over assault weapons, magazine bans. SCOTUS' Bruen ruling cited as "4-ton wrecking ball...If you think this stops in the small town of Superior, you are mistaken; this has the potential to hold much broader implications."
