Among Republican registered voters, 72% agreed, and 82% did when the language was attributed to Trump.

Armstrong: Colorado journalists cheerlead government interference

completecolorado.com, Approved, State /

I worry about those who disparage “the media” without context or specific complaints. Badmouthing journalists can be a way to dodge reporting you don’t like. But there is such a thing as media bias, or at least biases within media. That’s not surprising. Journalists are people, and most people harbor some bias or other. But news publications, I think, have a responsibility to try to counteract rather than feed their reporters’ biases.

Rosen: Democracy is safe, but Biden threatens the Republic

In essence, Joe Biden kicked off his reelection campaign mumbling through a theatrically contrived speech in Valley Forge, Pennsylvania arranged to coincide with the third anniversary of the January 6, 2021 debacle at the U.S. Capitol.  Staging this at the site of George Washington’s Revolutionary War headquarters in front of a backdrop of American flags, Biden shamefully misappropriated the father of our country as an implicit endorser of his re-election.

Armstrong: A modest proposal for school choice in Colorado

State, Approved, completecolorado.com / /

I’ll begin with my proposal: Parents who do not send their school-age children to public schools do not have to pay taxes to help support those schools. Whatever proportion of property, income, and other taxes go to schools, those parents either do not have to pay in the first place (I propose), or else they get the money back during tax season, up to the average per-pupil expenditure. I mean to include here property taxes paid indirectly through rent.
