Colorado “justices”: we had to destroy democracy … — 59 Comments

  1. or it rules against the state but Democrats get to continue to trash the Court and to use the supposedly way-too-conservative Court as a campaign issue (win?).

    I don’t know how appealing that argument would be for moderates who aren’t suffering from severe Trump Derangement Syndrome. Like those Twitter/X commentors you mentioned, there’s definitely lots of people who don’t particularly like Trump but nonetheless don’t believe it’s a good idea to completely destroy the law and tear down the very structures of civilization to stop him.

  2. Also, in the “the process is the punishment” category, another costly and time consuming court battle now going all the way to SCOTUS, amidst the four indictments of 91 criminal charges and countless civil cases all during a presidential election campaign is just that much more load on his finite resources.
    At one point it was reasonable to think they were simply trying to defeat him. It’s become clear that they are attempting to destroy him and I believe that is odious to all men and women of good character.

  3. Just another brick in the wall of the Democratic Party’s wall-to-wall demonization of Trump and those who support him.
    It follows the general totalitarian game plan that the Democratic Party has enthusiastically embraced as the EPITOME OF MORALITY and a NECESSITY for THEIR SAVING the Republic:
    1. We are permitted to do anything and say anything (IOW pronounce any lie, declare any libel, concoct any plot, BREAK ANY LAW) to prevent the DEMON TRUMP from getting anywhere near the presidency again. We can do all this because WE’RE THE GOOD GUYS. (This is also why WE ARE PERFECTLY JUSTIFIED in seeking to gain total power and turning America into a banana republic.)
    2. Look at what that DEMON TRUMP is making us do!! Is FORCING US to do. (Once again because WE’RE THE GOOD GUYS! And also, we’re the VICTIMS of Trump and everything he represents!!)

    …and the rest is history….

  4. Of course those on the left don’t fear the devil turning on them. They are now his emissaries.

  5. … or it rules against the state but Democrats get to continue to trash the Court and to use the supposedly way-too-conservative Court as a campaign issue (win?).

    Oh, I’d remove the question mark and call that an absolute win. At least from a Dem perspective. Recall, that none other than president B. H. Obama chose the unprecedented tactic of trashing the SCOTUS in front of the justices in a State Of The Union address.

    Plus, many on the left consider Roberts’ decision upholding Obamacare to be a direct outcome of the WaPo editors and others trashing the SCOTUS in the media. This would just be more of the same.

  6. Hoo boy, they really don’t like us, do they? Consider what’s happened lately:

    1. Trump is ruled ineligible to be on the CO primary ballot, even though he has not been charged, tried, or convicted of insurrection.

    2. The Reconciliation Statue is coming down.

    3. Robert E. Lee was melted down.

    4. The MN state flag is being changed to something that bears more than a passing resemblance to a Somali state flag.

    5. The talking mop tells us that passing a law to keep illegals out of TX “is not who we are.”

    It would be so much better Joe or Kamala or Schumer or someone on the left would just admit that they hate half the country and that no, the “great replacement,” questionable elections, inflation, and spiking crime are not myths or coincidences, they’re government policy.

  7. It’s been done to a Republican presidential candidate before, but not since 1860. He won anyway.

  8. SGF:

    I was curious. CNN has a piece about it:
    https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/minnesota-unveils-new-state-flag-after-decades-of-criticism-of-previous-design/ar-AA1lLhxT

    They don’t show you the new flag, only the old flag!!

    SMH.

    I don’t find the resemblance that strong — it’s a shade of blue and has a star with a different number of points, but that’s about it.

    It’s much more interesting how minimalist it is compared to the old one.

  9. I’ve always loved that quote in A Man For All Seasons.

    It shows a kind of sense that we’ve lost these days.

  10. }}} People are finally realizing these people do not care about facts, it’s power.

    Been that way for a very very long time. Harry S Truman, from a 1992 American Heritage article based off a 1970 interview with him:

    “Professional liberals are too arrogant to compromise,” Truman said. “In my experience they were also very unpleasant people on a personal level. Behind their slogans about saving the world and sharing the wealth with the common man lurked a nasty hunger for power. They’d double-cross their own mothers to get it or keep it.”

    https://www.americanheritage.com/eight-days-harry-truman

    PostModern Liberals are Truman’s “professional” liberals. And 95% of all liberals today are PMLs.

  11. On a different site, saw two theories floated:
    1) Incite the normies / right to do something spectacularly dumb to justify … whatever
    2) This is pre-alpha testing (i.e., version 0.0.1) of what the want to do. See why it gets slapped down, and revise or try in a different state.

    I’d guess both. See what sticks, and hope that whatever reaction is elicited can be leveraged.

  12. 4. The MN state flag is being changed to something that bears more than a passing resemblance to a Somali state flag.

    Sgt. Joe Friday:

    True. I would add that it also looked like the Palestinian flag in design — left triangle, three stripes.

    Twofer!

  13. Leftist “pre-alpha testing”, continued…

    …in California (where else?), where the Leftist juggernaut having been kicked out the door tries—deceptively—to climb back in through the window….
    “I NEED YOUR HELP TO DEAL WITH CALIFORNIA’S OUT-OF-CONTROL LEGISLATURE”—
    https://instapundit.com/623006/.

  14. See what sticks, and hope that whatever reaction is elicited can be leveraged.

    Kris:

    Ooo. Were you a leftist once?

    You seem to know our ways…

  15. Since I’m all over AI these days, I notice that the left resembles a large, evil AI, relentlessly probing for weaknesses to exploit.

  16. seem not to care about that, perhaps because the left (at least in Colorado) feels very secure in its ability to stay in power indefinitely, now that it has the reins.
    Yes Neo this is exactly right. I live here and can’t really move. CO use to be a nice state, fairly balanced between Dem and Rep, but it gradually changed. The Rep party here is moribund.

  17. I agree with Kris. This seems like a provocation to see what the reaction will be and how much they can get away with. I think the left would love for some sporadic, disorganized violence that they could then put down to stop the threat of “domestic terrorism”. If such violence does not happen organically, I’m sure they would be more than happy to provide some to fill the void.

  18. Neo, excellent choice on the YouTube: that exchange between Thomas More and his SIL Roper, in “A Man For All Seasons,” is an absolute classic and (alas) is so very relevant today. …As for the larger game and why the Dems are doing this, I speculate that this is a ruse. As you say, the CO Dems can’t really lose: either the Supremes decline to review this abomination (thus the Dems win) or it does review it and reject it (and the Dems can then rally their base by railing at the horrible right-wing decision). But this goes beyond CO. It provokes the Republicans to a tit-for-tat exchange, somewhat like the IDF being lured into ground (and underground) combat in Gaza and therefore having massive civilian casualties attributed to them by Hamas, its puppets at UNRWA, its sympathizers and proxies in the media. That informational warfare is the strategic high ground and I worry that Hamas may win it. Tit-for-tat is like the classic “wrestling with a pig.” You get filthy but the pig has fun. Here, there’s no end to the tit-for-tat, and the longer you play, the more you implicitly validate the idea that people can be thrown off the ballot for BS reasons. Result? Democracy is gone.

    I am not liking this at all.

  19. CO GOP already said that if this stands they will hold caucuses instead of a primary. This is lose-lose for the donkey f***wits.

  20. Those four Colorado S.C. ‘Justices’ have convicted Trump ‘in absentia’. Can a clearer example of ‘malfeasance in office’ be found than judges who formally declare a citizen’s guilt before even being charged?

    “The governor and other state and judicial officers, shall be liable to impeachment for high crimes or misdemeanors or malfeasance in office, but judgment in such cases shall only extend to removal from office and disqualification to hold any office of honor, trust or profit in the state.” Article 13, Colorado Constitution

    “In Colorado, supreme court justices are initially appointed by governors but then have to face the voters by running in statewide retention elections. Colorado voters previously chose to keep all four justices who were in the 4-3 majority that ruled against Trump.”

    “It’s become clear that they are attempting to destroy him and I believe that is odious to all men and women of good character.” Jerry

    A poll of Colorado voters to determine what percentage of those who voted for those justices now find those judge’s actions odious… would be instructive. Call me a pessimist but I’d be surprised if it is not a vanishingly small percentage.

    love virtue signaling means never having to say you’re sorry”

  21. Yeah well, as I have previously pointed out before with regard to the video clip message, and as you have yourself subsequently remarked, More gave the Devil’s imp the benefit of law, resigned his office, shut his mouth about politics, retired to his home, and the goddamned Devil still came after him, and pressed More, until he killed him.

    What do sensitive conservatives imagine leftoids mean when they shout ” By any means necessary”

    Do they imagine that the knee jerk progressive recognizes any limits, any boundaries at all to what it wants, or in principle, the manner of getting it?

  22. Obloodyhell — the resemblance of the new flag to the one Somali flag is similar to the way the Jordan’s flag resembles the flag of Western Sahara. No one will ever convince me it’s just a coincidence.

    I watched Frei and Barnes discuss the Colorado decision. They are convinced it was design to provoke a response, another Reichstag fire. The CO Supreme Court apparently issued its opinion and immediately issued a stay.

    I also watched them discuss the recent Giuliani decision. (It might be the same video.) Interesting discussion.

    Geoffrey Britain: The people who support this sort of decision are people cut from the same relativistic cloth as Obummer. Remember when asked how he defined a sin? He said it was something “that went against [his] values.” There is no objective right or wrong anymore — the only thing that is “wrong” is what goes against their “values.” And one thing they “value” is getting their way by any means necessary.

    What the hell have people been teaching their children for the last forty years?

  23. Someone in today’s reading on this I think over at Althouse suggested that Roberts will cobble together a 9-0 ruling on the specific matter that the President and VP are explicitly excluded from the 14th Amendment. The rationale for the three leftists to join would be that if not a much broader decision would include things they could not agree to. That would go a long way to putting the question mark in the second win.

  24. This, the Michelle Wu ‘invitation’, are only the latest things that drive many of the great unwashed (read ‘non elite whites’) into the Trump camp. And with no effort on his part.

  25. I guess this the cherry on top of the four indictments and trials. It’s not really going to change anything: Trump will appeal and the Colorado court has already declared in its opinion that the decision will be stayed if he does. But the decision is going to give the Bidenites another talking point. If you aren’t convinced by the four trials, they will throw this decision on top and hope that it convinces you.

    Are today’s liberals post-modernists? I suppose if post-modernism means that only power matters and that everything is about power, then they are, but I think the big change is that the Democrats aren’t divided anymore, and they don’t hear anything coming from outside their own information/propaganda bubble. It’s strange, though, how DC Democrats think this is total war, while Congressional Republicans like Lindsey Graham still have fond memories of working with those across the aisle and think it’s still possible. Biden is the perfect mouthpiece for the Democrats because he can mouth the rhetoric about bipartisan cooperation and national unity, while his minions kneecap his opponents.

    About the flag. There’s been a lot of criticism about state flags that are just the state seal put against a blue (or green, or white) background. The counterexamples were the flags of more recent states which were more geometric, but could claim to have some meaning in their designs — Arizona, New Mexico, Alaska. You could add others if you like — maybe Hawaii, California, Maryland. The counterargument is that an awful lot of flags around the world are geometric but without any explicit meaning. You can come up with explanations — one color for freedom, one for patriotism, another for purity — but it’s not very convincing. Minnesota kept something you could call the Northstar, but there’s not much to be said for the rest of the new flag.

    Cutting Indians out of state flags and seals and team logos seems like a great way of denying that they ever existed. Cutting out white settlers seems like a clever way to indicate the increasing homogenization of the country and the world as every place becomes identical to everywhere else.

  26. Is it accurate to say there has been an escalation of the Left (and supportive media) opposing every Republican President since Nixon? Is Trump just the latest, and by extrapolation, most persecuted of Republican Presidents in the string?

    Nixon, Ford, Reagan, Bush, Bush, Trump.

    Is it correct that the tantrums, lawfare, protests, threats and fear mongering are in direct proportion to the success of the Republican President, his length of tenure and how recent his term(s) was/were (more recent = harsher treatment)?

    E = Electoral College votes
    Y = Years in office
    P = Proximity to current year

    Maybe: 12(E/538) + P {1969=1, ’73 = 2… 2021=14} + 2(Y) = likelihood Dems go apesh*t/burn cities/hold impeachment hearings, etc…

    Ford and Bush I did the right thing and lost their re-elections, so the Left went relatively easy on them, but Nixon won re-election by the biggest margin ever so he had to be destroyed and removed…

    They will punish the public inversely to the public’s willingness to support their madness.

  27. Re: Abraxas / State flags

    I do love the New Mexico flag. Spare perfection.

    I’ve got back-up!
    _______________________________

    The New Mexico flag was rated first in a 2001 survey of 72 U.S. and Canadian flags by the North American Vexillological Association.

    Vexillological. Doesn’t look like a real word, does it?

  28. Gregory Harper

    If they push hard enough there will be violence. It may come to them as the be careful what you wish for variety.

  29. Hmmm… I’m not sure my formula is quite right…
    Let’s look at some test cases:
    Nixon’s second term: E=12, P=2, Y=6; totals to 20
    Bush’s second term: E=6, P=10, Y=8; totals to 24
    Trump: E=7, P=13, Y=4; totals to 24

    Maybe instead of E for electoral college votes we should substitute V for vox populi, the highest average favorability poll during the Republican President’s tenure. That seems to be where things really go off the rails.

  30. Agree on the New Mexico flag. It is great!
    Maryland’s is way up there.
    And Ohio’s is not only a great color scheme, pattern, but it’s also not a rectangle.

    I just may have to go with Ohio.

  31. I figured out what’s wrong with my formula. Y should be a geometric scale, not arithmetic. Their ramping up of batsh*t opposition has been escalating since Nixon won, but it’s escalating by greater and greater increments each time the people ignore their will. They don’t like people ignoring them. They really, really do not like that.

  32. What’s the Democrat game plan here?

    Easy. Outrage Republicans and push Trump to the nomination. Then, convict him of a crime, either in Jack Smith’s DC case or or Fani Willis’ Georgia case if Jack Smith can’t get his appellate issues determined in timed. Then, see polls where 54% of Trump’s voters will abandon him if he’s convicted. Then, hello to Biden’s second term.

  33. Is Concerned Conservative suffering a cranial infarction? Or just projection?

    Then, see polls where 54% of Trump’s voters will abandon him if he’s convicted.

    Because Trump voters are as fickle as a typical voter.

  34. Law V-blogger Viva Frei has now read the Colorado decision. Also the dissents. The latter amount to common sense and logic, he says. Therefore, he relates to us only the substance of the decision itself only.

    This “Sham fraud Court!” says Viva. A communist twisting of facts and law, he declares! “I cannot believe what Justice has become in this country.”

    The Court finds gymnastic moves to reach their partisan conclusion, all the while they claim to be suffering and reluctant nobles.

    “Sociopaths, narcissistic, psychopaths,” says Frei of these Four.

    Here’s one example of fact. To conclude Trump = Insurrection, the Colorado decision cites a tweet by a woman in the original trial as proof of “Insurrectionist” intent. Trump retweeted it.

    On this point, Viva directly asked her if the call for “Calvary” in the Tweet during J6 was what they claimed: a call for “cavalry”? Or rather the Christian religious meaning of the term and not a typo, as these Supremes construe.
    (Calvary, definition: “ 1: an open-air representation of the crucifixion of Jesus 2: an experience of usually intense mental suffering.” — Merriam-Webster.com.)

    She told him it was the first — NOT the second. The Court misconstrued her, and if given the opportunity, she says she would have corrected them.

    This shows that institutions cannot be trusted to put Country above Party, argues Viva.

    And this precedent will certainly be put to use, variations on the same method (eg, a higher court reaching where a lower one refrained to go), in some of several states where the Leftist CREW organisation is working.

    FROM A COMMENT at YT:
    “Dissenting justices: Boatright – U Denver Law / Samour – U Denver Law / Berkenkotter – U Denver Law. Affirming justices: Marquez – Yale Law / Hood – U Virginia Law / Gabriel – U Penn Law / Hart – Harvard Law – Is it significant that the 3 dissenting justices got their law degrees from U Denver, while the 4 affirming justices got their degrees from east coast schools?”

    Hmmmm. Three dissenters who all graduated law from the local private University of Denver Law School. The majority all from three Ivy, plus UVa Law — the original “Public Ivy.”

    Is this breakdown meaningful for explaining the Court’s division? I leave it for you to decide.

    Viva Frei raises many more points. The most frequent ploy is avoiding legal definitions, favouring common dictionary definitions to construct their arguments.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aw4wdRs8080

  35. ADDITIONS: The re-Tweet by Trump is a call for violence, since Calvary are mounted horsemen, says the Court.

    This woman who authored the Tweet is expected to be a guest on Viva Frei’s show soon.

    Frei argues that there was in fact evidence of coordination intending the false flag event to benefit Democrats.

  36. The 4 in the majority are Ivy League Law alums.

    A CO lawyer on X by the name of Jarvis hits the nail on the head. Look at Section 5. It requires Congress to pass an insurrection law. And Congress did. One has to be convicted of insurrection in a criminal case in order for the 14th Amendment to apply. Not even Jack Smith charged Trump with insurrection.

    And in order to conduct an insurrection, guns are needed.

    What a fucking embarrassment.

    I think they have retention elections in CO like in NE. Vote those 4 out.

  37. And let me add that Trump walked right into the J6 trap the Dems set for him.

    Exceptionally bad judgment by Trump. That’s why I support Vivek.

  38. The problem with the move away from “seal on a sheet” flags is they’re drifting towards a different mediocrity: the horizontal stripes with something on the left. A gazillion national flags are some minor variation of that.

    At least the seals have something unique about them, if you actually look at the seals. I’m not a big fan of the new Utah flag, but at least it isn’t derivative of some fake province in a third world ****hole country.

    New Mexico, South Carolina, Alaska, Arizona, Indiana, Rhode Island, Maryland — I like those flags; you can tell them at a glance. Some of the “seals on a sheet” don’t have the navy background. Minnesota’s WAS one of those.

    There was an old radio humor show from the 70’s – the Radio Tooth Fairy. “I am the Tooth Fairy, and I South come…” KER-SLAM! I bring this up because maybe the other thing behind the new Minnesota flag is that they were fans of WLS Radio Tooth Fairy. His wand had a neat little water pistol on one end, and the flag of Somaliland on the other. (You could become Radio Tooth Ranger and get a dagger and a card. Somewhere, I still have mine.)

  39. The “J6 trap” was, in fact, a declaration of war by the Democratic Party against the Constitution and the citizenry of the USA.
    Perhaps Trump didn’t think they’d go THAT FAR…

    Hey! Another reason to despise him!!

  40. “…a call for violence, since Calvary are mounted horsemen…”

    OK, but wouldn’t “Cavalry” (being misconstrued as “Calvary”) likewise be “a call for violence”…since the whole tragic episode might bring to mind (with apologies, perhaps, to “Brian”) the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse…

    This being the case, one could then target Trump as “the Candidate of the Apocalypse” (which, I suppose, might get him the vote of the millenarists—and perhaps even die-hard F.F. Coppola fans).

    File under: Aw, chiliast out!

  41. The Man For All Seasons scene had occured to me when I heard about the ruling too. We really are dealing with a bunch of [cultural and educational, not racially-based] “lesser breeds without the Law”.

  42. Cornhead @12:59am,

    Absolutely! Trump behaved ridiculously regarding the aftermath of the election and January 6th was an obvious set-up. He should have been urging his supporters to go nowhere near DC during that time.

  43. More is right – but how well did his principled stand wotk out for him?

  44. Thanks Heritage.org

    Amnesty Acts of 1872 and 1898

    [t]hat all political disabilities imposed by the third section of the fourteenth article of amendments of the Constitution of the United States are hereby removed from all persons whomsoever, except Senators and Representatives of the thirty-sixth and thirty-seventh Congresses, officers in the judicial, military, and naval services of the United States, heads of departments, and foreign ministers of the United States. – Amnesty Act of 1872

    “the disability imposed by section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment to the Constitution of the United States heretofore incurred is hereby removed.” – Amnesty Act of 1898

    The plain language of these [amnesty] statutes, first removing the disability from “all persons whomsoever” except those listed in the statute and, second, removing the disability from the excepted persons, demonstrates that the disability set forth in Section 3 can apply to no current member of Congress

    ALSO, there is plenty of jurisprudence on the issue of whether or not a state can add an extra burden on a candidate beyond the Qualifications Clauses. [hint, they cant, and they tried before so its settled]

    ALSO, “North Carolina filed a challenge with the North Carolina State Board of Elections against the candidacy of Representative Madison Cawthorn (R), seeking to have him disqualified from the ballot. The challenge claims that Cawthorn engaged in an insurrection on January 6 and therefore does not meet the constitutional qualifications to be a Member of Congress under Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment and a North Carolina statute”

    ALSO Wisconsin – Senator Ron Johnson (R) and Representatives Tom Tiffany (R) and Scott Fitzgerald (R), claiming they “are no longer qualified” to seek re-election under Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment

    ALSO Georgia Representative Marjorie Taylor Green (R) is ineligible to run for re-election under Section 3 because she supposedly “voluntarily aided and engaged in an insurrection to obstruct the peaceful transfer of presidential power” on January 6

    Electoral Count Act of 1887 – anyone… anyone… beuler… beuler…

    The Electoral Count Act provides that an objection can be filed jointly by a Senator and a Representative “in writing, and shall state clearly and concisely, and without argument, the ground thereof.”Upon such an objection being made, the joint session for the counting of electoral votes is temporarily suspended while the Senate and House of Representatives debate and vote on the objection. If the objection is voted down, the counting resumes. The law specifically gives Congress the ability to “reject the vote or votes when they agree that such vote or votes have not been so regularly given by electors whose appointment has been so certified.”

    Pass the popcorn..

  45. If Trump is allowed to run for President, the sun will explode and the universe will cease to exist.

  46. Chicken Man taught me what they Yiddish word, “meshuga” means

    well then, why not learn the other great ones – you can say them on TV too!

    mishegoss – craziness; senseless behavior or activity. synonyms: meshugaas, mishegaas. type of: craziness, folly, foolery, indulgence, lunacy, tomfoolery. foolish or senseless behavior.

    or chutzpa, hutzpah, or hutzpa…

    This is akin to murdering your parents and then throwing yourself on the mercy of the court because your an orphan.

    Shanda for the Goyim!!!
    [this one explains they are aware of the few in their midst, that ignore the tora, and so, cheat the goyim, and bring shame on the nations]

    anyway
    who cares..
    from the comments from the law agencies, they did not realie that their shoa was from the left.. ie. they were throwing all their money to the left, under the false idea that somehow the not left was the party of the shoa, and the slavery, etc..

    ie. they funded their own end.. [and the end of their protectors]

    but read more laws from the late 1800s..

    you know… about the time i tried to inform you about eliza pinkerston, the woman in congresional testimony that the dems (as the knights of the white camelia) murdered, mutilated, and tortured blacks (and poor whites) so that they would win the hayes tilden election and prevent blacks from ever voting republican after the war!

    they slashed her husbands throat, drowned her baby in front of her and cut her breasts off leaving her for dead.

    and you guys still have no idea of how far this party has historically gone!!!
    and how their own side doesnt know either (or cares)

    They have since removed the book from the google free library
    you didnt read it then – its erased now

    you can find it in germany
    To the men who heard her testimony, Eliza Pinkston’s wounds appeared tospeak for themselves. From 20 November 1876, the Louisiana ReturningBoard had been holding hearings on various allegations of vote fraud, intim-idation, and violence in the presidential and gubernatorial election held on7 November of that year.

    the new york times covered it

    CONVEYING THE 1876 ELECTION TO THE PUBLIC IN AN ERA OF DIMINISHING DEMOCRATIC NORMS
    https://www.journalofthecivilwarera.org/2022/10/conveying-the-1876-election-to-the-public-in-an-era-of-diminishing-democratic-norms/

    Perhaps the most sensational event recounted during the investigation into the 1876 returns involved a Black woman named Eliza Pinkston in Louisiana. Pinkston retold the story of an attack on her family by white men attempting to prevent her husband from voting. Having also been injured during the attack, her appearance created a stir. According to newspaper reports, her muscles around her heel had been cut so that her foot hung “useless.” She still had a “gash across her face” and was “weak, and fainted.” This was the result of her husband being dragged out of his house in the middle of the night, the white men stating, “You will vote no more —– Radical tickets here.” After killing him, they returned to the home, attacked Eliza and took the baby beside her and “cut its throat from ear to ear,” dispatching it in a pond

    definitely chutzpah, mishigosh, and done by meshuganas

  47. Here is another excellent example of the totalitarian, ill-liberal, Stalinist mindset of “progressives.”
    This one is from the execrable, dishonest POS teachers union president , Randi Weingarten, in which she states the school choice undermines democracy.
    Yep, that’s right folks; giving citizens choices undermines democracy.

    “They have not one thing that they offer as a solution other than privatizing or voucherizing schools which is about undermining democracy and undermining civil discourse and undermining pluralism because 90% of our kids go to public schools still.”

    She is the sort of degenerate snake-like, life form that would fit right in at Harvard or on the Colorado Supreme Court.

    Just you watch; if / when the SCOTUS decides on the validity of the Colorado Supreme court decision, several SCOTUS justices will agree with the Colorado decision. After all, at least one member of SCOTUS is incapable of determining if a person is male or female (geez; I wonder if she had this problem figuring out the gender of her parents or children or husband?).

  48. Gallows humor here.
    Cornhead says “I think they have retention elections in CO like in NE. Vote those 4 out.”

    YES, Colorado has retention elections for Spremed. But these four have ALREADY been “approved” by the voters.

    My voting policy is to vote everyone OUT! On the premise that they are political appointments (in general a huge negative in law), and if they’ve done something positive, surely the screech media would have made me aware of it, and thus I can make an exception. But this has never occurred.

    Barry Meislin says at 4:39 am:
    The “J6 trap” was, in fact, a declaration of war by the Democratic Party against the Constitution and the citizenry of the USA.
    Perhaps Trump didn’t think they’d go THAT FAR….
    ______

    I didn’t. But after the fake election of 2020 (SEE Molly Ball’s February ‘21 Time mag piece — Viva Frei posted up a sardnic and sarcastic SPEED reading on YT. It remains a classic outrage take — I was alert to the possibility but didn’t or couldn’t imagine how.

    But the give away was the two bombs at respective Party offices that have been forgotten and perp never found. Who had motive the do it? Why, scheming DemocRATS as an insurance policy to derail the Election Act norms that Trump hoped to deploy and delay by considering State Election fraud (and a few Congressmen were going to do so, yet like Trump, they were caught out unaware of the perfidy in their midst)—but the Pelosi House Machine engineered to defeat.

    Thus, 200+ FIB assets on scene. And too few police as designed by Polosi-monster, aided by one particular Cap Hill cop named Yolanda Pittman(?), who was the total bottleneck in getting that changed, as detailed by a subsequently retired Cap Hill lieutenant, Tarim Johnson.

    For the benefit of a few catching up on this backstory, here are the eye-opening LINKS and stories.

    Especially hear 35-38m:
    Cap Hill officer, a woman named Yolanda Pitman, deliberately blocked Intel information flow about Cap Hill Cops and their needs from getting heard.

    Says Lt (ret) Johnson, Pitman knew violence was going to occur;
    that she deliberately sat on the Intel (supporting this);
    that she left her fellow officers to get hurt —
    So that they could blame it on Trump, and Pitman gained favours from Pelosi.

  49. Not surprised this is coming from Colorado–after all–this is the same state who’s largest public school teachers union, the Colorado Education Association (39000 members) voted to dismantle capitalism.

  50. I’m happy to see Artfldgr in the comments.

    The left lurches toward the Gomorrah. All the time, sad so many people are blind to the evil.
