NOT ALL DOCTORS ARE COOL WITH THE COVID DOGMA And there are many providers in Colorado speaking up and out against the single focus on vaccines (which we know do NOTHING against the much more contagious omicron) and stifling of discussion about other options for treatment and immunity boosting. I've got Dr. Rachel Corbett and Dr. Ed Carriere on the show at 1 to discuss why Colorado Healthcare Providers for Freedom is giving them a voice.
WHY ARE KIDS STILL IN MASKS? That's a rhetorical question because the answer is the power structure in TriCounty (now No County) is hopelessly afraid of covid and won't look at evidence or results before forcing kids back into masks. If masks worked in schools, we should have NO cases in Adams and Arapahoe and TONS in Dougco, right? I've got super mom Caitlyn Quattromani and attorney Shelley Thompson on today at 1:35 to discuss their Herculean quest to just get TriCounty to pay attention to the science. On Twitter yesterday Westminster City Councillor Rich Seymour shared this gem. For context, Adams has roughly 512,000 people, Arapahoe 651,000 and Douglas 358,000 residents. Can't you just see those mask mandates bringing down infection rates???
THE NEW YORK AG IS GOING AFTER TRUMP, ONLY NOT CRIMINALLY I am genuinely confused as to why the Attorney General of New York is investigating Donald Trump for a civil case. Okay, I'm not REALLY as this is the most politically motivated investigation in history. That being said, sometimes a blind squirrel finds a nut and AG Leticia James says she's found many ways when the Trump company lied about and inflated his assets on official documents. NOOOOOOO, you don't say???? This is the least surprising turn of events ever. We'll see how it all shakes out.

GOOD GRIEF COLORADO REPUBLICANS, STOP THIS 2020 ELECTION CRAP I am embarrassed that Colorado Republicans, who are in a hopeless minority right now, would waste time and energy offering amendments to anything that call into question the results of the 2020 election, and yet, that's what they did. They fell hook, line and sinker in the Democrat trap set perfectly for them to give Dems fodder for the campaign trail against them. Suckers. They should have just voted no on the nakedly political resolutions the Democrats put forth so they could bludgeon Colorado Republicans in the upcoming election cycle. They should have not voted if they found the measures stupid, as I do. But instead, they gave the impression that the GOP in Colorado is full of Trumpets who don't believe Biden is President. The stupidity of this is mind blowing.
IF YOU WATCH THE NETWORKS YOU MAY HAVE MISSED THE HORRIBLE POLLING OF THE PRESIDENT Because the same networks who practically lead every cast with Trump's lousy numbers are now conspicuously ignoring the freefall of our current President. I wonder why? Hmmm, this is a tough one. Maybe someday we'll know.
AND HERE'S HOW THEY'VE COVERED UP THE BAD NEWS FROM THE BIDEN ADMIN And boy I am sure glad they put this in one place, because it's incredibly damning. I wonder if the network brass even look at this stuff? JK, they don't because then they would have to confront their won biases which they won't even admit they could possibly have.
ANOTHER HIGH PROFILE JOURNALIST LEAVES A NETWORK BECAUSE OF WHAT WE JUST SHOWED ABOVE And this one was a defection from the Canadian Broadcasting Company to Substack by esteemed journalist Tara Henley and she wrote about it here.
IF WE ALL HAD THE SAME INFO, WOULD WE THINK THE SAME? This column answers a depressing no, even though I sort of suspected this. Read it here.
VIRGINIA GOVERNOR YOUNGKIN FOLLOWS THROUGH ON HIS PROMISES The first thing he has done in office is ban the teaching of CRT and ban mask mandates in schools. I'm sure this is going to scare the hell out of the frightened liberals in Northern Virginia, but as you will hear AGAIN on the show today, the evidence on masking is simply not there.

JACK PHILIPS HAS BEEN UNDER ATTACK FOR TEN YEARS And the woman currently suing him is swearing to sue him again and again and again until he gives up his firmly held Christian beliefs to cowtow to her inane wishes that he embrace gay and trans culture. If you want to understand how totalitarians think she is the perfect example.
ACCORDING TO THE NEW YORK TIMES YOU AREN'T ALLOWED TO VISIT HISTORICAL SITES EVER At least if anything that we find awful now occurred there. The moment in question is this column re responding to a Q + A from the New York Times about a wedding planned for a former plantation in the South. The NYTimes reacted as you might think, even as their reasoning falls apart upon any sort of reflection.
HERE'S A FUN EMAIL ON HOMELESSNESS IN DENVER I got this from listener Chris:
Mandy.
I ride the train everyday and go through union station.
I normally keep my head down but today I had an interesting conversation with a homeless man.
He told me he was from Louisiana amd came to Denver two years ago.
He was riding the train at 4 am in order to get warm. I asked “ why be homeless in Denver where it is cold?” His response. “ there are no resources and services in Louisiana amd everyone knows Denver gives plenty. “
This is the root of our problem. People will move to the services. Move to where their life is easier.
The underground homeless network has spread the word that Denver will feed you and drugs are easy.
Chris
Note this man isn't USING any of the many services we have here in Denver, but he came here to get them. But I'm sure this will be fine.

SCIENTISTS ARE USING ELECTRICITY TO REGROW CARTILAGE At least in rabbits. They zap the affected joint and the electrical stimulation regrows the cartilage in damaged joints. In rabbits. Just go to Downtown's Healthcare instead, trust me, they don't have to shock you and their stuff works on humans.
GIVING A BAD BOSS HELL IS FUN SOMETIMES And these stories of five people who quit dramatically when being harangued by a bad boss are wonderful, even though I frown on such things normally. However when there is a chain of text messages or emails which show how utterly unreasonable the boss is on a regular basis, I'm fine with it.
BALD EAGLE CAM IS A THING AND YOU NEED THIS This is a thing they do all over Florida and it's super cool. When they find a bald eagle nest, which are HUGE, they climb an adjacent tree or tower and wire up a live stream camera so you can check in and see how the eagles and their eagles are doing. This camera should catch the new eaglets as they emerge from their shells, maybe Friday.
