Memo to Republicans: Look south — to Pueblo | Sean Duffy
Colorado might have been immune to the 2024 Red Wave, but there is a red river flowing in southern Colorado. A successful strategy in politics is to find the races — and the places — that are the most inclined to help grow market share. It was tempting to look at the national map and…

COLUMN: ‘Let’s make 2025 the Year of the American Man’
American society needs to man up. In the election just concluded, the yawning chasm between the candidate choices of men and women — particularly younger Americans — received overdue attention. Polls taken this fall showed a 53% gap between young men and women, with the men supporting Donald Trump and women flocking to Kamala Harris.…

Out-of-touch elites refuse to embrace reality
What happens when people who were vilified by elites as idiots end up being right? For several years, elites in America have lectured us that if we would simply genuflect to their presentation of the “facts” about crises facing Colorado and our country, the scales on our eyes formed by shallow and ill-informed opinions would…

A curious double-standard on life and death | Sean Duffy
Do animals matter more than people? In some quarters of progressive Colorado, it appears so. This fall, with an epically long general election ballot chock full with state and local ballot measures, civic organizations have been holding forums to discuss the merits of various proposals. Having attended several, and spoken at a few, I noticed…

Colorado’s ‘thin blue line’ stretched way too thin | Sean Duffy
If your house is being burglarized, or you are being mugged, elite liberals have some advice for you: call a math teacher. As crime in Colorado has soared — we are ranked the third most-dangerous state — hardcore progressives in the Legislature have largely refused to take direct, aggressive steps to make the state safer.…

Who’s afraid of school choice? | Sean Duffy
Coloradans like their rights to choose the best schools for their children. This freedom is apparently so irritating to liberals that they’re willing to spend millions to prevent it from gaining constitutional protection. It’s sad, out of touch and intellectually bankrupt. Amendment 80 is probably the simplest measure on a very long ballot. Basically, if…

Slaughterhouse closure would slaughter jobs, economy | Sean Duffy
Will you let liberals raid your refrigerator? That’s the ultimate goal of a Denver ballot measure to ban slaughterhouses within city limits. If the measure passes, it would close the only facility operating within city limits, tossing workers out of their jobs, and have a ripple effect on Colorado’s livestock industry. Vote yes and not…

COLUMN: Documentary exposes DEI’s guilt-tripping grifters
Are you racist? I recently had the chance — thanks to my friend and KNUS-AM morning host Jeff Hunt — to attend a sneak peek of the new film “Am I Racist?” produced by the conservative media outlet The Daily Wire. The film, which has several Colorado connections — including that director Justin Folk lives…

Coddling Kamala is a dangerous disservice
Would you go to a surgeon who got a medical degree without taking tough tests? The vice president is accepting the Democratic nomination for president this week having held no news conferences or even taken significant questions from the national media in weeks. Her staff obviously believes that in-depth interviews, and public accountability, are a…

’Trophy’ hunting ban poses a ballot cat-astrophe | Sean Duffy
It’s time to let the cat out of the bag regarding the “trophy hunting ban” on this year’s ballot. Anti-hunting advocates are proposing to ban the hunting of mountain lions, bobcat and lynx, because, they say, these big cats are pursued solely for sport, not for food. The proponents hope you will limit your consideration…
