Charges were actually dismissed because of a Colorado Democrat law signed into law by Colorado Governor @jaredpolis(D). #copolitics

her: what are you thinking about me thinking about how during the las vegas shooting stephen paddock alone supposedly discharged over 3000 rounds of ammunition in just ten minutes using an alleged 27 AR-15s with bump stocks which would have required him to drop and replace each gun after each 30 round magazine was empty and then also reload each of the 27 AR-15s four times each without ever actually stopping the shooting as videos from that night show a constant stream of bullets fired at a rate far exceeding the capabilities of a bump stock AR-15 and actually nearly identical to the rate of an M240 light machine gun and then also photos and videos of the hotel room in the immediate moments after it was breached show no more than 50 shell casings and then during the aftermath his house burned down and all evidence was destroyed and then his brother said he’d never do something like that and then the fbi took over the investigation and shortly after the brother was arrested for possessing literal terabytes of bad bad videos and images on a 20 year old computer running windows 95 and then ruled the attack had no motive and they never mentioned multiple other reported shootings that night at separate locations including an airstrip and from blackhawk helicopters with their lights and transponders turned off and it just never got investigated again lmao what the fuck: nothing babe

"Your dog's existence is destroying the planet" Libterds have jumped the shark on climate change.

In a fair market, this fat cow would be completely uninsurable. We're forced to pay the cost for her endless buffet visits. If she wants affordable healthcare, she needs to put down the fork.

"Tax dollars taken out of your pocket at threat of gunpoint should provide luxuries, not just essentials" is an absolutely wild position to take. But that's where the Democrat party is right now. Zero respect or consideration for the people who actually pay for this stuff

Democrats are always confused by due process. "Due process" isn't a series of bureaucratic hearings and endless delays that protect terrorists from the consequences of their crimes. It's the process due. In this case, a hellfire missile is 100% what is due to these monsters seeking to poison the American people for personal gain and profit.

According to Democrats if you keep your own money you're a thief. BUT... if government takes money from you at gun point to give to people that hate you without strings attached? That's morally righteous. A perfect demonstration of how corrupted their worldview is.

Behind that 39% of children is an adult who does not have their house in order. Enabling them without reforms is not just nor is it moral. Unlike you, I expect that we raise expectations for those adults rather than spend ourselves into unpayable debt "for the children"

How many billions did Democrats already send overseas, with no thought for the future or our debt? This isn't principled, it's partisan. Democrats had meltdown over USAID ending. I thought you LIKED foreign aid? I think you do, just not when Trump does it. Total TD.S

Undocumented plate? Democrats have a meltdown. Undocumented person? They'll shovel taxpayer dollars into your wallet.

Colorado’s governor just made this statement “The market has made it clear, EVs (electric vehicles) are here to stay.” #copolitics #coleg I agree with him. Electric cars, unlike 8-track tapes and rotary-dial phones, will continue to be available to consumers for a long, long time. Cool. But why he made the statement puzzles me. He did so while touting his decision that the state will increase one of its subsidies to buy a new EV from $6,000 to $9,000. Wait a second. Which one is it? Has the market made clear electric vehicles are “here to stay”? Or do we need to increase the EV subsidy by a third to keep its market alive? And it begs another question: If the state is in a budget crisis, why spend our very scarce money buying people cars instead of providing core governmental services? Oddly, it’s the governor’s decision alone. During the recent special session, instead of doing their constitutional job of setting budget priorities, the state legislature booted that power to the governor. This hard-left legislature, that screams President Donald Trump has too much executive authority, just gifted their highest authority to Colorado’s chief executive. In case you’re blissfully unaware, the left is finally noticing our three equal branches of federal government have become very unequal. The executive branch has gained more and more power because during the last century Congress kept ceding its authority to the president’s office. Colorado has been following that example. Electric car welfare But let’s talk electric cars. It’s been nearly a year since I let the taxpayers buy me one. I purchased a brand-new, completely sissy, Nissan Leaf. Although it retails for about $30,000, I got it for less than $14,000. Can you really declare a product is “here to stay” when people will only buy it if someone else pays for most of it? Although it’s as masculine as a bejeweled golf cart with a baby seat, I’ve enjoyed driving this little electric car more than I’d like to admit. It drives smoothly, is responsive, and has some get-up-and-go (which rarely matters thanks to traffic because we’ve stop building or even maintaining roads). The downside? In snow it drives like a garbage dumpster sliding down a hill. It has little space to carry much of anything. Though I’m buying less gas, my electric bill went nuts. But what’s known as “range anxiety,” that’s the worst. I’ve limped this car home with only 2% battery power left, making it more anxiety-powered than electric-powered. It’s no good for trips that might go long. So, like every other electric car owner, I also have a gas-powered car for, you know, life. The statistics prove it. Subsidies to buy an EV go to people who already can afford a car. Any member of the Green Industrial Complex reading this is now yelling, “Hey jerk, this new Colorado EV giveaway is income-dependent!” Indeed, it is. Your income must be 80% or less of your “area median income.” So, according to the Colorado Energy Office, in my poverty-stricken county of Boulder a household of four can make $120,480 a year and still receive the $9,000 gift. Nice. Beyond that, the state still gives anyone who buys an EV $3,500 (that will reduce next year) plus and extra $2,500 if the EV has a retail price of under $35,000 (that won’t reduce). Money to burn The state predicts this new giveaway of $9,000 will cost more than $28 million through the next three years. That’s not what you’d call a budget-driver, but it does represent more than 11% of the $250 million budget shortfall that’s mostly taken out on Medicaid receivers. And don’t give me the “oh, this EV money comes from a special fee for clean transportation” crap. Money. Is. Fungible. Jared Polis, who decided to rescind a 1.6% bump to Medicaid recipients to offset a fraction of the inflation (which is worse in Colorado than most other states), has put middle-class people who want a new plaything ahead of the handicapped dependent on Medicaid. Of course this is by design. The false narrative is Trump cut Medicaid, thus Colorado will need to raise taxes (or “fees”) next year instead of the truth. Our leaders want to spend our money on social engineering, not the core functions of state government.

The ratio on this is absolutely glorious. +5k views and not even breaking double digits on the likes... absurd that a man with such unpopular opinions and actions believes he can be the next governor of Colorado.

Adelita Grijalva was "elected" to replace her father who spent almost an entire year on medical leave. He missed 455 votes. The same Socialists who complain about "no kings" are completely fine with dynastic power for themselves.

How does a judge order an entity 37 trillion in debt to pay anything, to anyone? What do they expect them to do? Just fire up the money printer? oh... I guess they do.

If you seek approval from actors, then you're probably beyond redemption.

We need better from our elected officials. Passing laws is serious business. Passing them without understanding the ramifications is a dereliction of duty.

It's weird that we can all clearly see how AI is about to wipe out millions of jobs all at once, destroy every artistic field, make it impossible for us to discern reality from fiction, and destroy human civilization as we know it, and yet not one single thing is being done to stop it. We aren't putting up any fight whatsoever.

Remember, the swamp loves the threat of a shutdown. By withholding funding for things Americans want, they can get funding for things nobody wants. We should be passing separate funding bills, not one giant funding bill. Reposting this relevant thread from three years ago:

In 2023, NBC reported that 25% of all patients at New York City public hospitals were illegal aliens. Today, NBC reports that illegal aliens do not receive free healthcare. You can't distrust the fake news media enough.
