Some pointed questions for the gubernatorial hopefuls | George Brauchler
Earlier this month, the Republican and Democratic candidates for governor participated in a televised interview moderated by well-known, left-leaning legacy media folks. Predictably, the questions asked of the GOP candidates were more aggressive, pointed, biographical and almost entirely disconnected from the issues and policies that might improve life for Coloradans. Conversely, the questions asked of the Democratic candidates — both of them being statewide elected officials with well-known track records to scrutinize — were…

PERSPECTIVE: Colorado’s Legion of Doom under the Gold Dome
As a kid growing up in Colorado, I loved watching the animated series The Super Friends, who fought against evil and for good as a part of the Justice League. Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, and more. They were opposed by the Legion of Doom and its cast of villains, always fighting for wrong over right. Colorado has its…

PERSPECTIVE: Jailbreak — Legislative Dems look to empty Colorado’s prisons
Colorado Democrats are working feverishly this legislative session to increase the rate at which convicted felons are released from our prisons back onto our streets. They claim they must, because of overcrowding and cost. Do not fall for that lie. Colorado’s prison overcrowding “crisis” is the predictable, deliberate and unnecessary outcome of Democrat political decision-making that has long prioritized…

Colorado judges lean left – just look at the numbers | George Brauchler
Colorado’s judicial selection system is heavily skewed toward Democrats and defendants. It is time to drop the pretense that our system adequately minimizes the impact of partisan political influences on the selection of the judicial branch. In less than two weeks, Gov. Jared Polis will appoint the next justice to our seven-member Colorado Supreme Court.…

Peters earned her prison time; GOP must move on | BRAUCHLER
The Tina Peters case continues to reveal how the Republican Party has abandoned its long-time commitment to the Rule of Law, including our once sacrosanct Constitution. Republicans BT (Before Trump) were committed to law and order, without passion or prejudice. The law mattered. But no more. Last week, POTUS declared that he had granted a…

Crow’s stunt wasn’t seditious — but was dangerous | George Brauchler
This Thanksgiving, when millions of military members sit down with their families to eat turkey, they will likely discuss Crow. Colorado U.S. Rep. Jason Crow’s media lust led him to create an unprecedented video designed to instill doubt in our military in the chain of command whose orders they rely upon for mission accomplishment here…

SCOTUS: 3, Weiser: 0 — Colorado: embarrassed | George Brauchler
Recently, Attorney General and gubernatorial aspirant Phil Weiser took to social media to trumpet the news that he has become a part of 43 lawsuits against President Donald Trump (it could be up to 100 by the time of this printing). The AG’s lawsuit announcements have picked up significant pace as he battles with his…

Loophole lets off Jeffco sheriff in K-9 attack | George Brauchler
It is the position of the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office that their K-9 deputies are not accountable under the law for any injuries or destruction caused by their dogs, including broken bones, maiming and even death. Jeffco deputies advanced and defended just such an outrageous argument after one of their “trained” dogs violently attacked a…

Legislature makes mockery of immigration laws | George Brauchler
SB 25-276 is a Democrat-only sponsored bill that attacks the rule of law and will make Colorado less safe and less just. It contains a predictably steep, yet unquantified, unfunded mandate to counties, who fund the 23 district attorneys’ offices across Colorado. SB 276 expands the opportunity for “noncitizen defendants” to challenge every guilty plea…
