A UFO at Red Rocks? Employees say disc-shaped object appeared in sky, then vanished

By Chris Eberhart | Fox News A dozen employees said they watched a "large, disc-shaped craft" hover above a Colorado concert venue and then vanish.  "What's even crazier is that as soon as we all started noticing it and stopped what we were doing to pay attention to it, the craft tipped at an angle and slowly started moving belly-first to the east," an employee reported to the National UFO Reporting Center about the June 5 sighting at the Red Rocks Ampitheatre in Morrison. "Then it started fading away until it was invisible. It didn't shoot off into the distance. It simply dissolved into the ether. We all watched it vanish." The "silent" hovering object was long – about the size of a "three-story office building" – with three levels of windows...

56 Colorado counties with tax-exempt federal lands getting $48M, that’s $2 per acre

By Joe Mueller  | The Center Square Fifty-six counties in Colorado will receive $47.8 million as payment for approximately 24 million acres of tax-exempt federal lands within the state, or about $2.00 per acre. The funding, called “Payments in Lieu of Taxes,” was created in 1976 and rewritten and amended in 1982. The money paid to help local governments offset losses in property taxes for the nontaxable federal lands within their boundaries. A formula is used to calculate the payments. Population, revenue-sharing payments and the amount of federal land within the county are taken into account. “Payments in Lieu of Taxes” are made in addition to other federal funds paid for oil and gas leasing, livestock grazing, and timber harvesting, according to the U.S. Department of the Interi...

York: Biden’s big Dirty Harry ‘make my day’ bluff was called by Trump

By Byron York | Washington Examiner BIDEN’S BIG BLUFF. Until a week ago, President Joe Biden seemingly had the age issue under control. Yes, he had senior moments, some of which were quite severe, such as the episode at the White House Juneteenth concert in which he weirdly froze for two minutes, silent, eyes fixed straight ahead, body absolutely motionless. But commentary on such moments was mostly confined to a few news outlets. Much of the White House press corps seemed to accept the Biden press handlers’ explanation that the stories were “cheap fakes” created by Republicans to hurt the president politically. It’s hard to understand why any observant reporter would accept such an explanation, but some did. Everyone knew that polls showed large majorities of vot...

Yoffe: Something is wrong with Joe Biden. It’s time for him to be assessed by doctors who will tell the truth.

By Emily Yoffe | The Free Press It is time for Joe Biden, the president of the United States, to submit to a medical assessment performed by a group of independent doctors, doctors who are given carte blanche to release their findings. After Biden’s alarming performance at last week’s presidential debate, his stumbling over words, his inability to form a coherent argument, his slack jaw and blank stare, it became undeniable that something drastic had happened to the 81-year-old leader of the free world. It is time for the public to know what is wrong—and what isn’t wrong—with him. Instead of taking medically necessary action, Biden’s White House and campaign staff are floating their own diagnoses. The president suffered from a new malady now known as One Bad Night synd...

Whistleblower: FBI abuses security clearance to ‘purge’ conservatives, views them as ‘unworthy’ of employing

By Josh Christenson | New York Post The FBI is abusing its security clearance process to “purge” political conservatives from the bureau, according to recent whistleblower disclosures reviewed by The Post. The federal law enforcement agency’s Security Division has been suspending or revoking clearances for employees whose political affiliation or COVID-19 vaccination status are suspect, a supervisory special agent who formerly worked in the division alleges. The unnamed agent, who is described as “a registered Democrat” and is represented by the nonprofit Empower Oversight, further claims that high-ranking officials in the division believed “if an FBI employee fit a certain profile as a political conservative, they were viewed as security concerns and unworthy ...

Where’s the sacred white bison? ‘Wakan Gli’ hasn’t been seen in Yellowstone since June 4

By Taylor O'Bier | Denver 7 News A white bison calf, born in Yellowstone National Park at the start of June, has not been seen since, according to park officials. There haven’t been any confirmed sightings of the calf since June 4, when several visitors first took photographs of the newborn in the Lamar Valley area of the park. Park staff said they hadn’t been able to locate the calf, and it’s unclear if the calf is still alive. White bison — especially ones that aren’t a result of albinism — are extremely rare, and it is said that just 1 in 10 million exist. READ THE FULL STORY AT DENVER 7 NEWS

With wolf pup(s) on the ground, state’s wildlife director insists on non-lethal response to livestock killings

By Thelma Grimes | Colorado Politics The chief of Colorado Parks & Wildlife insisted that "non-lethal" means of managing wolves that kill livestock is crucial especially now that the two wolves brought to Colorado have a pup.  "And we believe that there are more pups within the recently named pack," Jeff Davis said in a round of letters in June with Sen. Janice Rich, who questioned whether he is taking the concerns of citizens who are being “impacted by wolf depredation seriously.” "Again," Davis said, "deployment of non-lethal actions will be critical in avoiding and minimizing future interactions between wolves and livestock as well as people." The round of letters confirmed the familiar points of contention between Davis and state policymakers who have criticized th...

Rudy Giuliani, once ‘America’s Mayor’ during 9/11, disbarred in New York, plans to appeal

By KYLE CHENEY | Politico Rudy Giuliani has been disbarred in New York for his efforts to subvert the 2020 election. “The seriousness of [Giuliani’s] misconduct cannot be overstated,” a state appeals court wrote in a unanimous, unsigned opinion. Giuliani “flagrantly misused his prominent position as the personal attorney for former President Trump and his campaign,” the court found. He “repeatedly and intentionally made false statements, some of which were perjurious, to the federal court, state lawmakers, the public … and this Court concerning the 2020 Presidential election, in which he baselessly attacked and undermined the integrity of this country’s electoral process,” the five-judge appellate panel said.

Chamber opposes closing of Boulder Airport, ‘red-herring’ argument that started effort

By Boulder Reporting Lab The Boulder Chamber announced last week that it is “firmly opposed” to proposed ballot measures that would decommission the city’s airport and use the land to build housing. The organization, which represents businesses across Boulder County, is the latest to take a stance in a thorny debate that is shaping up to be the most contentious issue of this year’s local election. “There are significant economic vitality, transportation and public safety benefits of access to this community asset that far outweigh the red-herring argument for converting our municipal airport to future housing,” the chamber said in a statement. Earlier this month, organizers with the ballot measure committee, Airport Neighborhood Campaign, gathered enough signat...
