Bennet, Weiser join Hands Off protest backed by radical activists, some sporting guillotine signs

By Colorado Peak Politics The political left’s lemmings with nothing better to do in Denver on Easter weekend protested the Trump administration’s efforts to save critical programs from bankruptcy through the elimination of government waste and fraud. It looks like only the Colorado politicians who recently announced campaigns for governor — U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet and Attorney General Phil Weiser — took advantage of the mass anger event to fuel those flames further and capitalize on their desperate need for attention. https://twitter.com/MichaelBennet/status/1913693551541526946 Interestingly, the state’s top law enforcement guy noted that he really enjoyed the signs, many of which called for violence. https://twitter.com/pweiser/status/1913668307775103352 The Colora...

By Ernest Luning | Colorado Politics Leading Colorado Democrats criticized President Joe Biden's pardon of his son for federal crimes, calling the move a "mistake" that weakens Americans' faith in the justice system. Contradicting his own earlier pledges that he wouldn't pardon his son, the Democratic president issued a sweeping pardon for Hunter Biden late Sunday, characterizing the latter's federal prosecution on charges of tax evasion and falsifying a firearms purchase form as politically motivated. "While as a father I certainly understand President @JoeBiden’s natural desire to help his son by pardoning him, I am disappointed that he put his family ahead of the country," Gov.
