Maria, we have these neat devices called batteries.
I'm pretty upset Polis keeps supporting or at best equivocating about him in public.
The fact that they're going to try to come after SSRIs in response to gun violence is one of the many actions of this admin that is unequivocally evil. And counterproductive. Regulate guns ownership and release the Epstein files, please.
That stock is such a bubble. I can't wait to see it pop. His house of cards is all intertwined and with the one support being TSLA stock.
It’s very conspicuous rewatching this that Trump is desperately trying to hide the back of his right hand from the camera
New in PN: Don't listen to centrist Democrats about crime "The right response to Trump’s authoritarianism isn’t to say 'maybe he has a point.' It’s to attack him and his allies for their dishonesty, their thuggishness, and their failures. That’s how Democrats avoid looking weak."
see the "fun" thing here is that they will do everything in their power to make this statement accurate (destroy everything everywhere before allowing the capital gains tax to be raised)
Ugh such a pick-me for authoritarian strongmen
**Gallego**
Calculated or not, the fact that he can give this answer makes Gallero way more appealing to me than the current Dem leadership or Pete. I truly do not get why the party who cant connect with people is actively excluding the one guy who's clearly great at it.
DBL Statement on our meeting with Mayor Johnston and the Vibrant Denver bond.
8/13/25: White Subaru wagon driver turned left through a red light from Perry onto 38th while a dozen children and adult cyclists crossed the intersection.
Why the f*ck did you vote to keep providing him with weapons?
More evidence that asking drivers nicely to be mindful is not a sufficient strategy for protecting vulnerable commuters. And that's exactly what DPD asked drivers to do in response to this incident... This is why we need physical barriers for protection.
Today is the last day for City Council to add bike projects to the bond. Around 18% of people that took the Mayor’s survey asked for better bike infrastructure, but the Mayor has 0 new bike lanes in this bond. Ask City Council to fund bike lanes: secure.everyaction.com/AREPVie5vU-l...
Ah yes, just like up is down, left is right, and 2+2=5.
The Trump admin is rolling out a nationwide health tracking system with Google, Apple, Amazon & CVS. Mental health, meds, vitals—all synced, all shareable. Where is the “don’t tread on me” “they’re tracking us” crowd?
we're gone from "we're not cutting Medicaid" to "if you lose Medicaid you deserve it"
Thank you to our Bike Mayor Ben Shpurker for speaking at the Alexis Bound Memorial ride tonight. #BikeDen
Dem leadership hedging on Mamdani is just stupid. You're pissing off excited voters otherwise skeptical of the Dems, and for no gains. He's the Dem nominee. The GOP will still attack him and Dems as "socialist" as they always do. Just say "He's the nominee. We're a big tent party." blah blah.
Hmm, reminds me of a certain phrase about the inversion of accusations and confessions.
Q: You said yesterday your falling out with Epstein was over him taking some of the workers from your business, but your administration in the past said you threw him out because he was a creep. Can you explain that discrepancy? TRUMP: It's the same thing. NBC fake news. What else do you have?
This might be the first time I vote no on a Denver bond. Mayor Johnston's administration continues to ignore true mobility projects and ignores the community. Shame.
Shout out to the bicycle community member letting the Mayor know that we need more bike lane funding in the Bond while he was walking to an event downtown today. We see you. Keep up the good work #BikeDEN! The bicycle lobby is all powerful.
People are dying and mayor Johnston has $0 for protected bike lanes in his $900mil bond proposal. But there's at least $100mil for the new broncos stadium! 🙃
It's unconscionable that Mayor Johnston has overseen the most dangerous 2 years for vulnerable road users in recent history, and decided to offer ...checks notes... $0 for protected bike lanes in his 9 figure city bond.
Trump unsealed the MLK files? He must really be in a bind if he's releasing more Black history
🚨 Help save bike infrastructure $🚨 Mayor Johnston wants to spend $140,000,000 for new bridges for the billionaire owner of the Bronco’s new stadium. Sign the petition below to ask to City Council & the Mayor to fund projects that the community asked for. us3.campaign-archive.com?e=__test_ema...

Somebody left pizza the hut in the spray tanner a little too long.
The media assumes Trump is full of shit The markets assume Trump is full of shit Voters assume Trump is full of shit But what if they're wrong & we're speeding toward failed state territory? Even optimistically we're at the mercy of an aspiring autocrat who's unhinged & fixated on hurting people
Bike discussion starts around 16 min mark. Paul & Bree were spot on and I really appreciated their discussion The Mayor has done a 180 from the day we took a candidate ride with him. In the wake of another cyclist death on a route that had a canceled bike lane Mayor needs to revisit his promises
Oh, so they're literally shutting down their own jobs to block the release of the Epstein document. Probably nothing to see there. /s
Colorado folks, today is your last day to vote NO at link below on this vanity project Polis wants to spend $18m dollars for a bridge so capital visitors don't see the unhoused people who live around the capital, instead of spending this money to reduce homelessness www.co150walkway.com/feedback
ICE just prevented me from entering an immigration detention facility in my district—a clear violation of federal law. Members of Congress have the right to immediately access these facilities. Listen here 👇
When your bosses income has risen 937% since 1978, & yours has increased by only 5.7%, I don't think minorities and immigrants are your problem.
Trump on Powell: “I was surprised he was appointed” (Trump appointed him)
Art of the deal! /s
Republicans just unanimously voted to BLOCK the release of the Epstein files.
The DOJ says there is no Epstein client list. Maxwell says she has one and wants to go public. Republicans votes to block the preservation of release and records in the middle of the night. Hmm…

Yeah, I mean just beyond the pale. One of the approximately 50 impeachable actions he's taken in the last 50 days.
god damn it this shit is so self-evidently evil we're past "it could happen here" this is it. happening here.
“Pedestrian and cyclist fatalities have jumped 78% in Colorado over the past 10 years.” www.denver7.com/news/front-r...
more than 100 dead now from the flooding in Texas. an outrageous body count given the technology and infrastructure that should've been available to mitigate this.
IDK y'all, it's pretty hard to see all the evidence you've generated in your life's work be ignored for terrible policy making. Definitely confirms my thinking that generating the evidence is not enough and I need to also be helping to build political power.
My sources tell me there is very real sense of anger and betrayal directed at CO CD 3 Congressman Jeff Hurd for voting for Trump's horrific budget bill. Hurd's father ran the Marillac Clinic, which serves low income clients. The Western Slope health care community pleaded w Hurd & he lied to them.
Installing bike lane ends sign so that pedestrian/wheelchair access is further compromised is just another 'F.U.' to everyone that isn't eating at the place. The whole mess appears to be straight out of the maga playbook :( You are better than this Denver, please show it.
The fact we have secret police whisking people off the streets doesn’t get enough attention. It ain’t normal and we’re further down the road to authoritarianism than you think.
You may be thinking "How can an entire political party be organized around the policy of taking from everyone and giving to the rich? No one would vote for them." Well that's where Lying comes in
It's decision time for Rep Jeff Hurd (R-CO) who signed onto a letter saying he couldn't support Senate Republicans' deep cuts to Medicaid. #copolitics
We have a sinking feeling Trump is going to take all of the people ICE kidnapped and force them to do this labor for free because they really want to bring apartheid to America and make slavery legal again.
As a politically engaged Coloradoan, I'm seeing and hearing senators Murphy, Warren, Sanders, and Booker speak to the harms and dangers of the Big Bad Bill. But not a peep from my own senators @hickenlooper.bsky.social @bennet.senate.gov Please, Senators: get out there and fight for CO
The GOP claimed their billionaire-first budget would save money but we’ve known all along that was a lie. Now it’s confirmed: millions will be uninsured & trillions of dollars will be added to the debt. All to give tax handouts to the wealthiest people in the world. apnews.com/article/cbo-...
Torres: "In 2024, 90% of new electricity generation in the US was clean energy. 60% of it is solar. And Republicans are proposing to defund solar and battery storage and wind, which are the leading sources of new electricity generations in the US. It is an act of strategic self-sabotage."
Such a good point on SCOTUS hypocrisy when it comes to Trump vs Biden: They let a nationwide injunction kill Biden’s student loan relief when they had a chance to rule on it. 5 months into Trump’s presidency, suddenly nationwide injunctions are a grave threat to executive power and they must rule.
@bendubose.bsky.social makes a good point on his latest pod that it might be a good time to move on from Cam. I would be okay with moving him for future draft capital or a win-now piece. Cam's super talented, but seems to be on the outs with this roster.
it is the Imperial Judiciary when courts say that presidents can’t unilaterally overturn constitutional text, and the Proper Order of Things when courts say that your rights rest on the whims of who happens to be in office

This man is so unhinged.
Pure evil.
Great, then start fighting. I haven't seen you say or do anything about all the abuses of power that are happening at the federal level. Where are you? How do you feel about extraditing American kids with cancer to other countries? Make yourself seen and heard.
“The sun sets in the East. I said that. The president said that. How many times do we have to tell you?”
It's true. These days I hate Tillman's politics enough to feel I have to preface it any time I get excited about the Rockets (e.g. Durant trade) with my non-fan friends. Still, I'm invested. That's the power of fandom in some ways. The connection to the team has me holding 2 competing ideas at once
The city has good bones, but there are some major pain points that have been around for years. E.g. crossing over the train tracks/i25/Santa Fe going east off the platte river trail into wash park/cherry Creek. Hate to see them spend 200k on downgrading existing infrastructure.
The Clear Creek Trail is a great example of what is possible when you invest in regional bike trails. They serve as great community spaces for recreation and transportation.

I can't imagine this sways our FO in any way. I might almost start to walk back the Rockets offer to apply some pressure the other way. But maybe I'm just petty,lol.
I see where you're coming from, but ultimately I think the #10 pick is further away from being able to contribute to a championship both in time and probability when compared to Bari. So for that reason I'd have him off the table in a KD deal. We'll see tho
i.e. There's really only one guy who gets to decide on matters of accountability. And I'm in his good graces, so I'll keep humiliating myself here until you shut up.
“Tesla’s driverless ‘robotaxis’ could launch in Austin as soon as June 22. But a demo in Austin today showed a $TSLA, manually driven to test its Full Self-Driving system, failed to stop for a child-sized dummy at a school bus—and hit it.” @cbsaustin @velez_tx
What happened to Senator Padilla is absolutely DISGUSTING. Point blank, period. This shit is out of control. Another elected official disrespected while doing their job. (1/2)
With SCOTUS allowing DOGE access to sensitive social security information (while shielding DOGE from having to turn over its info), I'm ... feeling pretty good about some of the stuff I said on @thedailyshow.com (ca. 9:05): www.youtube.com/watch?v=qBFE... & for more: bookshop.org/p/books/lawl...

Why bike riders dislike sharrows
The survey results from the Vibrant Denver bond are in check out the word cloud. It’s clear that Denver residents want better bike infrastructure and it’s time for the city to deliver on it.
This intersection has been a menace for years (as I'm sure y'all are aware). It's time for a change in infrastructure design
Lots of ways to get involved these next few weeks. Details on our website. Tonight, join virtually to support people over parking and join the city’s conversation on parking reform.
I once fostered a bully-heeler that did this while we were hanging out at a brewery. He just walked himself right out, 💀😆

Do you think the rockets should hold onto this pick on the off chance they can draft cooper flagg? Or tade in the asset for booker or KD?
Hmmm, looks like he's skiing in Jeans to me.
