Trump predicts ‘1929-style depression’ if Kamala wins

By Jeff Poor | Breitbart Wednesday, during a town hall event that aired on FNC’s “Hannity,” former President Donald Trump, the Republican nominee for president, warned viewers about a repeat of the 1929 Great Depression if Vice President Kamala Harris, his Democrat opponent, wins. Partial transcript as follows: HANNITY: Here’s my point. She wants to raise corporate taxes, she wants to raise small business taxes, capital gain taxes, estate taxes, the international corporate minimum tax to the point where America won’t be competitive anymore and your tax cuts are about to expire in 2025. TRUMP: Yeah. READ THE FULL STORY AT BREITBART

Gov. Polis signs property tax deal into law as measures removed from ballot

By Gabrielle Franklin | Fox 31 News The governor on Wednesday officially signed into law the property tax agreement designed to keep two initiatives off this year’s Colorado ballot. Now that the deal is done, FOX31 is taking a closer look at the impact it could have on your wallet. Property owners should still expect high property taxes this year, but state leaders say the increase will be lower than if the compromise had not been passed and if ballot initiatives 50 and 108 failed. If 50 and 108 passed without lawmakers reconvening for a special session, there could have been devastating impacts on funding for local services. Lawmakers celebrated the end of what they called property tax wars with groups that often bring property tax measures, but some concerns around the effects s...

Biden admin revives Russian election interference bogeyman just in time for November

By Reagan Reese | Daily Caller President Joe Biden’s administration launched new accusations of election interference at Russia nine weeks before the 2024 election. The Department of Justice alleged Wednesday that Russian President Vladimir Putin ordered several Russian companies to target Americans through the use of influencers and social media pages to spread propaganda and interfere with the election in a campaign titled “Doppelganger.” As a result of the indictment, the DOJ is charging two Russian-based employees of RT, a Russian state-controlled media outlet, with “conspiring to commit money laundering and to violate the Foreign Agents Registration Act,” according to a press release.

Rogan: Kamala Harris’s plan for economic failure

By James Rogan | Washington Examiner Today’s left-wing Democrats are yesterday’s Marxists. Judged by their policy proposals, Vice President Kamala Harris and the left wing of the Democratic Party plainly do not believe in capitalism. They do not believe in striving. They do not believe that society should be meritocratic. As with the Marxists of the last century, they believe in equality regardless of the reality that all human beings are unique. Some humans are geniuses but most are not. Some are great athletes, but most are not. Regardless of mental, physical, or artistic talent, however, the Left argues that we should all be equal. They swear fealty to that old Marxist principle: from each according to his or her ability, to each according to his or her...

Caldara: Learning to live without a functional Colorado GOP

By Jon Caldara | Complete Colorado I’m trying to come up with the right analogy. I’m sure you can do much better. I’m thinking of a bunch of little kids playing king of the hill. In their minds, they think the pile of dirt is Mount Everest, when, in fact, it’s the size of a pitching mound. Or maybe one of those Japanese soldiers who was left on a small, isolated island for decades not knowing World War II had ended and his side lost. He’s still fighting. Or, perhaps, corporate shareholders fighting for control of a company they think is the size of IBM when in fact it’s a broken hot dog cart.

A Broken System: The fight to protect our children from our own family courts

By Heidi Ganahl | Rocky Mountain Voice Colorado Parents and Grandparents, I have an important “to do" for you today (Thursday, Sept 5).  Can you come to the Ralph Carr Justice Center at 11am? It’s a critical opportunity to show up in a BIG way for mothers and children, rallying around one of the most important issues of our time, the protection of our children from abuse. One of my dear friends, Maralee McLean, is speaking about her daughter’s journey, her journey, and you won’t want to miss it. I met Maralee after I founded a non-profit called Moms Fight Back in 2013, to deal with the toughest issues we face as Moms, protecting our children from abuse, after my own daughter was sexually assaulted and treated horribly by our justice system.   Maralee sat with me...

Jury selected, opening statements set in King Soopers shooting trial

By Jenna Sampson | Boulder Reporting Lab Editor's note: The Boulder Reporting Lab is providing daily updates from the courtroom. This is from the Wednesday, Sept. 4, report. The jury pool was narrowed today from the initial 1,500 summoned to the final 16, including four alternates who won’t be identified as such until deliberation. The jurors’ identities will remain private for their protection, likely due to the high-profile nature of the case. Many of the jurors’ clarifying questions have revolved around how exactly they are supposed to decide whether Alissa was insane at the moment of the shooting. They discussed, for instance, if he wasn’t diagnosed as schizophrenic beforehand, does that place less weight on the later diagnosis as a factor that day? Did the incident itself con...

Colorado school district had trans-identifying female supervise young boys showering, lawsuit alleges

By  Mary Margaret Olohan | Daily Wire A Colorado school district has knowingly and repeatedly assigned children to bunk with members of the opposite sex on overnight trips, according to a lawsuit first obtained by The Daily Wire. Jefferson County School District’s “Transgender Students” policy requires that all students on overnight visits are to be roomed by their gender identity, rather than their actual sex. The district shared this policy with transgender-identifying students and chaperones, but not with students or their parents. The three families suing the district on behalf of their children — Joseph and Serena Wailes, Bret and Susanne Roller, and Robert and Jade Perlman — did not learn about the policies until their children found themselves rooming with students and chap...
