Joe Oltmann, Eric Coomer, and the War Over Reality

By C. J. Garbo | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice Joe Oltmann is one of the most polarizing political figures to come out of Colorado in the post-2020 era, but the real story isn’t whether you like him, dislike him, or agree with every word he has said. The story is what happens to a person who steps into the most dangerous topic in modern American life, election integrity, and refuses to retreat when the pressure escalates.  This is not a piece about campaign optics or personality. This is about dissent, institutional backlash, and the reality that when you collide with powerful systems, the “argument” often becomes legal, financial, and personal warfare. After the 2020 election, Dominion Voting Systems became a national flashpoint. Distrust spread fast, an...

Colorado Hockey Mom Says Whistleblowing Sparked Retaliation and Legal Threats

By Kenny Jacoby | USA TODAY For months, Brooke Wilfley raised concerns that the president of her local youth hockey governing board was using his position for profit.  The Denver-area hockey mom discovered that the president, Randy Kanai, was secretly routing the Colorado Amateur Hockey Association’s money through his private company.  She reported his conflicts of interest and mismanagement to everyone she could: board members, club directors, coaches and four USA Hockey leaders who oversee the nonprofit. Little was done.  Then in January 2023, Wilfley received a letter from the Colorado Amateur Hockey Association’s attorney. The board, it said,&nb...

Legal Battle Erupts After Arrest of La Plata Jail Commissioner

By Maddie Rhodes | KDVR FOX31 DENVER (KDVR) — A federal class action lawsuit was filed against La Plata County, the La Plata County Sheriff’s Office and several others after the former La Plata County jail commissioner was arrested for allegedly watching inmate strip-searches for his sexual gratification. On Wednesday, the attorneys filed a lawsuit for several people who said they were victims of Edward Aber, the former La Plata jail commissioner, who faces charges on 117 counts of invasion of privacy for sexual gratification and one count of first-degree official misconduct. The lawsuit claims that Aber allegedly watched videos of at least 117 different female inmates during their mandatory strip-search for his own sexual gratification. Many victims were nude in these videos. ...

Schaller: Parents must stay alert as schools conceal life-altering decisions from families

By Greg Schaller | Commentary, Fox News Multiple lawsuits reveal nationwide pattern of educators deliberately concealing students' gender identity changes from families There is a quiet but deeply troubling trend sweeping through our nation’s public schools—a movement in which teachers, counselors and administrators are actively intervening in children’s lives on the most personal of issues while deliberately keeping parents in the dark. Across the country, lawsuits are mounting as schools are found secretly facilitating the gender transition of minors without informing their parents. This is not just a pedagogical overreach—it is a gross violation of parental rights and a dangerous assumption that strangers know better than mothers and fathers what is best for their children. ...

Two CVRs, one pattern: Arapahoe County rewrote its election record, critics say–and no one’s accountable

By Jen Schumann | Rocky Mountain Voice Arapahoe County quietly replaced its 2020 general election cast vote record (CVR) in early 2025 – years after the election was certified. The change came without public notice, audit, or oversight. The reason? A Yale professor raised concerns about a strange pattern in the data. That pattern, according to a growing number of analysts and lawmakers, was more than just strange. It was statistically impossible. “This is like flipping a coin 3,500 times and getting heads every time,” said Dr. Walter Daugherity, a Harvard-trained computer scientist who presented forensic findings at a press conference held Tuesday on the west steps of the Colorado Capitol. RMV covered the lead-up to the event in a story titled Analyst to reveal altered Arapahoe 20...
