BRIAN BLASE HAS SOME BIG IDEAS FOR HEALTHCARE And he recently testified to Congress about a myriad of ways we can actually bring down the cost of healthcare and health insurance. Find that testimony transcript here. He joins me at 1 to discuss the plan.
DEMS SEE THE WRITING ON THE WALL ABOUT THE MIDTERMS And I should say it's less writing and more giant graffiti telling them they are going to lose and lose big this year in the midterms. This article from Politico shows just how despondent Democrats are, as the enthusiasm gap between GOP and Dem voters is the widest it's been in YEARS. The table is set for a GOP takeover, but if we nominate candidates in Colorado who embrace the stolen election narrative and want to be associated with Trump, we will lose big.
DEMOCRATS IN COLORADO DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU PAYING HIGH GAS PRICES Because they are ALL IN on AOC's green energy plan that has destroyed California's energy market. The issue here was a non binding resolution asking the Governor to approve more oil and gas permits in Colorado. The Dems sent this non binding resolution to their "kill committee" instead of voting on it on the floor. This tells you all you need to know about how much they care about your high gas bill.
THIS IS A GREAT EDITORIAL ABOUT THE LEGACY MEDIA WAKING UP THE HUNTER BIDEN LAPTOP STORY And part of me is SUPER PISSED that they are doing this NOW, but mostly I'm glad they are being forced to do it at all. Read it here.
THIS STATE CHILD WELFARE WORKER NEEDS TO BE PROSECUTED FOR MASSIVE FRAUD This kind of stuff INFURIATES me because I know people who work their tails off in this very difficult job and this lady needs to go to jail for what she did. A case worker in Moffat county has been flat up making up crap and lying about visiting families she never visited. The department says no children were injured or died because of her lying, but how is she not being charged with stealing a salary she didn't earn? Read the rest here.
THE HOUSING AFFORDABILITY TREND IN COLORADO IS NOT GOOD Unless you already own a house, in which case it's AMAZING. Home values are increasing at insane rates, and starter homes have seen the biggest jumps. Read the analysis by The Common Sense Institute here.
THAT INCLUDES RENT, WHICH IS CRAZY TOO Check out these most expensive neighborhoods for rentals and these crazy average prices.
ANOTHER TEEN DIES FROM A FENTANYL OVERDOSE And I bet someone who was holding less than four grams of fentanyl so they will get a ticket. Well done, Colorado Dems, for not doing anything about this. Well done. I'm sure her family is comforted by your inaction. She was sixteen.
ARE CARTOON GRAPHIC SEX ACTS STILL OFFENSIVE? To one Adams County mom they are and I agree with her. The book Gender Queer has created controversy in other schools and last night an Adams County mom tried to read passages to the school board and was shut down because it was TOO PORNOGRAPHIC. Seriously? How is this okay. Watch the story here.
CNN JUST NOTICED THAT HUNTER BIDEN IS A SCUMBAG Wow, watch this:
WE ALREADY KNEW HILLARY CLINTON WAS A SCUMBAG And now she's been fined for lying about funding the Steele Dossier as part of her campaign for POTUS. She's been fined by the Federal Elections Commission for misreporting how she spent that money.
I KNOW I SAID I WOULD NEVER SPEAK OF IT AGAIN BUT THIS IS TOO FUNNY NOT TO SHARE So I won't speak of it, I'll just put this right here.
EVER WONDER HOW THEY SHOOT SEX SCENES IN HOLLYWOOD? Well if you have, read this.
IT SEEMS THE GOP COKE ORGIES WEREN'T ACTUALLY A THING I told you there was something about Madison Cawthorn I just don't trust. Here's a fun article about the many lies he's told. Now we know that he told House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy that his tales of orgies and seeing lawmakers do coke were "exaggerated". Really? You don't say? Idiot.
PROGRESSIVES REALIZE PROGRESSIVES IS A BAD WORD SO THEY ARE TRYING TO CHANGE THEIR LABEL Just like after they ruined Liberal so they moved to Progressive, they are now trying to rebrand as "populist" because they know it hasn't been ruined yet. Isn't it odd that when people find out the ideas of the Left they reject whatever label they have attached to themselves? It's not the name, it's the ideas and sanctimony they can't stand.
IF HISTORICAL FIGURES LIVED TODAY Here is what they would look like using modern AI tools to do it.
BIDEN'S BILLIONAIRES TAX IS NOTHING BUT AN ASSET GRAB And should be a total non starter although I'm sure AOC LOVES this and she's running the party now. Read this column about how far this tax goes and why it's a garbage idea.
CAN WE ALL CIRCLE BACK TO THE BLUE SKY THINKING DAYS BEFORE JARGON TOOK OVER? Office jargon is not new. It changes, but it's ALWAYS there. I recently noted that the phrase "is the juice worth the squeeze" is having a moment that needs to be over, but apparently more people are super annoyed by "blue sky thinking" which apparently means to trying to find entirely new ideas. What? The survey is in though and we ALL hate the jargon. Just stop it.
THE US IS OFFERING GENDER X PASSPORTS And I'm genuinely curious as to how these are going to be accepted in different nations. I think a vast majority of the time it's no biggie, but some extremely conservative countries may not go for this. Read more here.
STAYING HYDRATED REDUCES YOUR CHANCE OF HEART FAILURE This is interesting, though I'm not sure the connection has been completely established. It seems that if you want to avoid the stiffening of the heart that often leads to heart failure, drink lots of water. How much? Read this.
BRUCE WILLIS LEAVES ACTING AFTER APHASIA DIAGNOSIS Aphasia is a condition of confusion really, where the sufferer becomes unable to process words and language correctly, usually caused by a stroke or a degenerative condition. People who had worked with him recently said there were multiple signs of trouble on the sets, as he couldn't remember lines and would sometimes be confused easily. This is sad and I hope he doesn't suffer terribly because of it.
A NEW OPTICAL ILLUSION HAS THE INTERNET DIVIDED And I am firmly on the side of JK Rowling on this, it's clearly a donkey.
ARIZONA REQUIRES PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP TO VOTE So of course the left is lining up to say that this is racist because they think anyone should be allowed to cast a ballot whether they do so legally or not. Read about it here.
ALMOST NO ONE IS IN THE HOSPITAL WITH COVID IN COLORADO RIGHT NOW And it's time to move on with our lives. Read about it here.
BIDEN APPROVES ANOTHER USELESS EFFORT TO BRING DOWN GAS PRICES Instead of unleashing American greatness that created a huge oil and gas boom under Trump, he's going to release some more oil from the Strategic Reserve. Yawn.
