Federal order puts Colorado’s mail ballot system on a collision course

By Jen Schumann | Rocky Mountain Voice The way Colorado runs elections hasn’t changed—but a new federal order could force it to. The order would have federal agencies assemble a nationwide list of verified U.S. citizens and share it with state election officials. States could then choose to send their own voter lists to the U.S. Postal Service about 60 days before an election. If they do, ballots would be limited to the names on those lists. In Colorado, that framework could fundamentally change how elections work. Colorado’s system leaves very little room to miss your chance. Ballots go out to every active voter—even those who register just days before Election Day. And for anyone who doesn’t, same-day registration still allows them to walk in and vote right up until po...

Republicans Should Just Say No To Josh Hawley’s Crusade Against Data Centers

By Booker Lightman | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice The Data center boom is creating a political conundrum for Republicans, or so Politico would have you believe. For while President Trump and the large majority of Republican elected officials are in favor of data centers, Josh Hawley, Marjorie Taylor Greene, and Thomas Massie stand in opposition to the Trump administration.  These are the same names that are always being praised by the media for their “bravery” in “standing up” to Trump. It’s not hard to see why.  Most Congresspeople get little attention outside their districts, but if a Republican Congressman speaks out against Trump, suddenly he or she is the darling of a mainstream media apparatus that would love nothing more than to set the Right...

Trump announces full pardon of Tina Peters in Truth Social post

By Jen Schumann | Rocky Mountain Voice President Trump posted on Wednesday that he is granting a full pardon to former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters, who has served 14 months of a nine year prison sentence.  He announced it in a Truth Social post late in the afternoon.  Trump criticized Democrats in the post, saying violent crime has gone unaddressed while election-related cases moved forward after 2020. “For years, Democrats ignored violent and vicious crime of all shapes, sizes, colors, and types,” Trump wrote. He added that violent criminals “who should have been locked up were allowed to attack again.” Trump said Democrats instead chose to go after people who pushed for election security, writing that they “chose instead to prosecute anyone ...

Colorado’s systems have failed Tina Peters again and again

By RMV Editorial Board On December 8, 2025, three events collided in Colorado that no honest observer can dismiss as coincidence. A federal judge dismissed Tina Peters’ habeas corpus petition, admitting she raised “important constitutional questions” about whether a state court punished her for her speech, then refused to consider those questions because of the Younger doctrine. Hours later, Colorado’s Department of Corrections moved Peters into Isolation Detention Observation: twenty-two hours a day in a concrete cell, lights on around the clock, no yard time and a single explanation—“this is for your safety.”  That same afternoon, the United States Department of Justice opened a civil-rights investigation into Colorado’s prisons and youth facilities, citing po...

Trump said release the Epstein files—now Congress agrees

By RMV Editorial Board Congress finally did what Washington avoided for years. The House went 423 to 1 and the Senate—unanimously. Washington doesn’t move like that unless people feel something shifting under their feet. Whatever held this shut is starting to give way. For years Democratic leaders and their media allies pushed the idea that Jeffrey Epstein was a Trump problem. If Epstein’s name came up, Trump’s name came next. It was a neat little narrative that kept uncomfortable questions away from Democrats.  Then Congress began releasing documents, and the story stopped cooperating. The clearest political fingerprints on the Epstein files now belong to Democrats, not Trump. The evidence shows Epstein’s network cultivating political allies, guiding congressional questio...

Critics laughed at Trump’s Tylenol warning, but Harvard didn’t

By Brian C. Joondeph | Commentary, Rasmussen Reports When Donald Trump raises a public health concern, the political reaction often focuses more on him than on the science. If Trump declared that drinking gasoline was dangerous, you can bet a TikTok brigade of Trump-hating liberals would be chugging unleaded gas on camera to “own the Orange Man.” His recent warning about the safety of acetaminophen (Tylenol) use during pregnancy serves as an example. Almost immediately, critics in the corporate media dismissed him with familiar phrases: “Trump isn’t a doctor,” “Trump doesn’t know science,” and “Trump is fearmongering.” On social media, some even filmed themselves defiantly taking Tylenol during pregnancy to mock him. But the facts tell a different story. The evidence Tru...

In Constitution Day Letter, President Trump Urges Naturalized Citizens of Their Sacred Duty

By Homeland Security Today | Homeland Security Today Today, on Constitution Day, President Trump issued a letter congratulating newly naturalized citizens taking the Oath of Allegiance and urging them to “safeguard, honor, and respect” the American Constitution. “The United States is now your homeland, and you stand as part of one Nation under God,” wrote President Trump. “You have pledged your heart to America-and in return, she offers the boundless promise of freedom and opportunity.” U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) will present this letter to all new citizens during their naturalization ceremonies. “After years of abuse, sanity is returning to our immigration system,” said DHS Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin. “American citizenship is a ...

Trump condemns Charlotte stabbing, says nation must stand against evil

By Tom Ozimek | The Epoch Times The president called the Charlotte train stabbing ‘horrible’ and said nation must confront evil. President Donald Trump on Sept. 8 denounced the fatal stabbing of a 23-year-old Ukrainian refugee in Charlotte, North Carolina, as a “horrible” act, saying the nation must stand up against “evil people.” “We’re all people of religion, but there are evil people,” Trump said during remarks at the Museum of the Bible. “And we have to confront that. I just give my love and hope to the family of the young woman who was stabbed this morning or last night in Charlotte by a madman.” The victim, Iryna Zarutska, was killed on Aug. 22 while riding the city’s light rail, minutes after taking a seat in front of the man accused of attacking her, according to police...

Sources say Trump plans to relocate Space Command from Colorado Springs to Huntsville

By Seung Min Kim and Kim Chandler | Associated Press WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump’s administration will announce on Tuesday that U.S. Space Command will be located in Alabama, reversing a Biden-era decision to keep it at its temporary headquarters in Colorado, according to two people familiar with the announcement. Trump is expected to speak Tuesday afternoon, and he will give the new location, according to the people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to confirm the plans ahead of the official announcement. A Pentagon website set up to livestream the remarks describes the event as a “U.S. Space Command HQ Announcement.” “The president will be making an exciting announcement related to the Department of Defense,” White House press secretary Karoline Lea...

D.C. parade marks 250 years of U.S. Army history with crowd, color and chopper thunder

By Jen Schumann | Rocky Mountain Voice A man in colonial uniform rode as George Washington on horseback during the Army’s 250th birthday military parade. It was the kickoff to one of the biggest military parades Washington has seen in decades. More than 6,600 service members made their way through the city’s center, with crowds pressed along Constitution Avenue and the National Mall to take it all in. From there, the Army’s long history moved forward in uniform. Regiments appeared in sequence, each dressed for their era — the Revolution, the Civil War, both World Wars, Korea, Vietnam and more recent conflicts. A narrator gave short intros as each group passed, offering just enough detail for onlookers to connect the pieces. On the reviewing stand were President Donald Trump, Vi...
