Brauchler Warns Colorado’s Legion Of Doom Is Reshaping Justice

By George Brauchler | Commentary, The Denver Gazette As a kid growing up in Colorado, I loved watching the animated series The Super Friends, who fought against evil and for good as a part of the Justice League. Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, and more. They were opposed by the Legion of Doom and its cast of villains, always fighting for wrong over right.   Colorado has its own Legion of Doom under our Gold Dome in Denver, and you need look no further than how they have wielded their legislative superpowers to know who leads them. In the DC universe, it is Lex Luther and Sinestro. In the General Assembly, it is Democratic state Sens. Mike Weissman and Julie Gonzales.  No single individual in Colorado ...

Phil Weiser’s ICE portal: A hotline for the wrong crisis

By RMV Editorial Board Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser wants you to do something. Not vote. Not volunteer. Not show up to a school board meeting and read the agenda before somebody else reads it for you. He wants you to report ICE. Weiser’s office rolled out a portal inviting Coloradans to document “concerns” about Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents. His pitch is tidy and familiar. The public assumes rules apply to everyone and that safety isn’t optional. When that assumption fails, there needs to be a way to say so. Fine. In theory. In practice, this portal is a neon sign pointing at the wrong problem. It's a taxpayer-funded invitation to fixate on federal immigration enforcement while the crimes and dysfunction Coloradans actually live ...

Bipartisan Colorado Bill Targets Tougher Prison Time for Child Trafficking Predators

By: Marianne Goodland | The Denver Gazette Colorado legislators on Monday announced a proposal to ramp up the penalties for human trafficking of children. The proposal, which received the backing of Democratic and Republican leaders in the House, will address one of the many problems when dealing with individuals who buy children for sexual exploitation — penalties so low that most offenders get probation, not real prison or jail time, according to the bill’s backers. At a news conference attended by dozens of law enforcement officials, district attorneys and victim advocates, 17th Judicial District Attorney Brian Mason pointed out that Colorado is in the top 10 states for human trafficking. The measure goes after people who pay for kids for sexual gratification...

Pam Bondi Turns the Tables on Senate Democrats in Fiery Judiciary Hearing

By Matt Vespa | Commentary, Townhall Attorney General Pam Bondi came out swinging today during her testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee. The Democrats' plan was clear from the start: to distract and divert from their government shutdown, lawlessness in cities, rogue judges, and the death and destruction Joe Biden's open border policies unleashed. Pam Bondi was having none of it and continuously brought the conversation back to what Democrats tried to avoid. It’s one of those things: Democrats need to shift the focus on who’s to blame to mask their incompetence. She came prepared, bringing a gun to the Democrats’ knife fight. When liberal media reporters admit that she was cooking Democrats, you know it’s bad. Before we get to her taking these clowns to the cleaners, let’s ...

Police Union Slams Chicago for Refusing to Help ICE, Calls It ‘Violation of Duty’

By Greg Wehner | Fox News National Fraternal Order of Police condemns reports officers were told not to assist surrounded agents The nation’s largest police union condemned reports that Chicago officers were told not to help ICE agents surrounded by protesters, calling it "shocking" and a violation of law enforcement’s duty to protect fellow officers in danger. Presidents of the National Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) and Illinois State FOP expressed shock at reports that Chicago's chief of patrol directed officers not to assist U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents as they were surrounded by protesters on Saturday. "Details are still emerging, but it appears that officers from the Chicago Police Department were ordered not to assist a group of I...
