Jason Crow Is Playing With Fire — And Colorado Should Be Asking Why

By Heidi Ganahl | Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice When a sitting United States Congressman tells the military to prepare to disobey orders, that’s not politics. That’s not oversight. That is the first brick in the road to a color revolution — and Colorado’s own Jason Crow is laying it proudly. Crow, the Democrat representing Colorado’s 6th District, joined a group of lawmakers who released a video urging active-duty military and intelligence personnel to “refuse unlawful orders.” Sounds noble — until you realize they never defined what those orders might be. That’s the game. Vagueness is the weapon. Uncertainty is the strategy. And it’s not an accident. When politicians want to destabilize a country from the inside, they don’t start with mobs in the streets. They start by undermi...

Colorado’s clash with federal law: Why Tina Peters’ case poses a Supreme Court question

By RMV Editorial Board What began as a state prosecution of former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters now sits at the junction of presidential pardon pertaining to federal election law and state authority. Colorado barred key evidence from the jury, sealed portions of the grand jury record, then fought to keep those materials from appellate review.  A recent analysis by Amuse asserts that the Supreme Court has never ruled on whether a presidential pardon can neutralize a state conviction when the conduct arises from a federal duty. Amuse also argues that when a state interferes with administering a federal election, those prosecutions become offenses against the United States—whatever the state calls them. https://twitter.com/amuse/status/1989394815616770528?s=46 Appe...

Trump Confirms Death of West Virginia Guardsman Attacked in DC

By: Ross O'Keefe | The Washington Examiner West Virginia National Guard soldier Sarah Beckstrom has died from her injuries after she and another soldier were shot Wednesday, President Donald Trump announced. She was 20. Her father, Gary Beckstrom, previously said she wasn’t expected to recover and had a mortal injury. “I must unfortunately tell you that just seconds before I went on right now, I heard that Sarah Beckstrom of West Virginia, one of the guardsmen that we’re talking about, highly respected young, magnificent person, started service in June of 2023 outstanding in every way. She’s just passed away,” Trump said Thursday evening. “She’s no longer with us. She’s looking down at us right now. Her parents are with her. It’s just happened. She was savagely attacked. S...

Blue States Sue Trump Over SNAP Rules Limiting Immigrant Eligibility

By: Rachel Shin | POLITICO Democratic attorneys general in states like California and New York argue that new guidance illegally blocks legal permanent residents from receiving food stamps. Democratic attorneys general from 21 states and the District of Columbia sued the Trump administration Wednesday over guidance that they say unlawfully blocks certain groups of legal immigrants from accessing food aid. The GOP’s tax and spending package, which was signed into law in July, narrows some immigrants’ eligibility for the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, the nation’s largest anti-hunger initiative. Green-card holders, however, can apply for benefits after a five-year waiting period. In their lawsuit, state officials allege USDA issued guidance on Oct. 31 incorrectly de...

The real Thanksgiving story still matters

By RMV Editorial Board Every November, we reach for the familiar version of Thanksgiving—the one with corn, a moment of goodwill between cultures and a picture of exhausted settlers saved by generous neighbors. There’s some truth in that telling, but only a sliver of the real thing. The actual history is rougher, more straightforward and far more connected to the country we’ve become. It is also a story that has been quietly pushed to the side. What follows is one of the clearest tellings of what actually happened. It isn’t sentimental, and it isn’t polished for classroom posters. It’s Rush Limbaugh reading straight from Gov. William Bradford’s own journal, the colony’s longtime governor and chief chronicler—a primary record of the Plymouth settlement and the decisions that mad...

Funding trail reveals Soros-linked organizations behind anti-Trump ‘illegal orders’ campaign

By Matt Vespa | Commentary, Townhall If it doesn’t resonate, it sucks. If it lands you being interviewed for the FBI for maybe peddling a seditious conspiracy, it sucks. If pollsters say it sucks, it was an attack line that was never meant to be successful. Several Democrats have been peddling these cockamamie attack lines regarding our military. They’ve been urging our service members not to follow so-called illegal orders from President Trump. Have any been issued? No. It’s a shoddy political stunt, and it’s reportedly being bankrolled by none other than groups tied to George Soros:  https://twitter.com/DataRepublican/status/1993582203151028534?s=20 https://twitter.com/EricLDaugh/status/1993684458961088599?s=20 READ THE FULL COMMENTARY AT TOWNHALL Editor...

FBI Reports Fivefold Surge in Arrests Tied to NVE Networks Exploiting Children

By Mary Margaret Olohan | The Daily Wire “This FBI is fully engaged in dismantling NVE networks and violent groups like 764." WASHINGTON—The Federal Bureau of Investigation says it has seen a dramatic 490% increase in “Nihilistic Violent Extremism” arrests during the past fiscal year, The Daily Wire can first report — an almost fivefold increase in the 2025 fiscal year. These arrests are mostly associated with 764, an online network that preys on young children, The Daily Wire has learned. “Members of ‘764’ use known online social media communications platforms as mediums to support the possession, production, and sharing of extreme gore media and child sex abuse material with vulnerable, juvenile populations,” the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Maryland ...

How to Help Parents Through the Unimaginable Pain of Losing a Child

By Jon Caldara | Commentary, Complete Colorado Had my daughter lived she would’ve just celebrated her 25th birthday. She died of a vicious form of cancer just days before her first birthday. She was our only child at the time. Twenty-four years later, I still have no way to express what it is like to be a parent one day and then not the next. I had no idea what terror was before that day. Her death is the seminal event of my life. The world changed, never to shift back. If you’ve lost a child, you get it. If not, I envy you. I am forever indebted to those who pulled me through. Many had lost children themselves. I have tried to pay them back by being there myself for grieving parents, particularly men. We men have been conditioned to bottle up our pain (we are rarely rewarde...

The devil’s roadmap to destroy the next generation, revealed in a stark AI response

By Jonathan Haidt | Commentary, The Free Press I asked ChatGPT how it would destroy America’s youth. Its answers were unsettling—and all too familiar. Earlier this year, someone started a viral trend of asking ChatGPT this question: If you were the devil, how would you destroy the next generation, without them even knowing it? Chat’s responses were profound and unsettling: “I wouldn’t come with violence. I’d come with convenience.” “I’d keep them busy. Always distracted.” “I’d watch their minds rot slowly, sweetly, silently. And the best part is, they’d never know it was me. They’d call it freedom.” As a social psychologist who has been trying since 2015 to figure out what on earth was happening to Gen Z, I was stunned. Why? Because what the AI proposed doing is pretty m...
