It’s hard to find myself here again. This site has gotten worse, but many of you still feel like friends. Despite the trolls, I want to share this about my mother, who passed away. Her life as a working-class immigrant mother tells an American story that feels unimaginable now.

Despite my better judgment (the risk of being harassed by trolls) many people on this app feel like friends, so I wanted to share this post about my late father who passed away last week. His life epitomized the American Dream—a dream that often seems elusive today. 🧵

Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser is the only thing stopping 1 company from owning over half of Denver's broadcast TV market. He's sued Trump 60+ times & won most, but this might be one of his most consequential cases to date. May the force be with you, we need a win here

NEW: Nexstar announces that the FCC and Department of Justice have approved the acquisition of TEGNA. Nexstar owns Fox31 in Denver. TEGNA owns 9NEWS. Nexstar has said multiple stations in the same market will be combined.

If someone chased down, grabbed and yelled at Diane DeGette like she did this voter, that person would be arrested. But we're going to sit here and pretend it's okay for a senior member of Congress (30 years!!) to treat her constituents like this? Again, Neguse, Crow and Pettersen have never done something like this.

@DeepNotShallow Let’s not be sensationalist. She didn’t punch someone. And now it’s multiple people (“voters”)?Who else has she done this to? This 30 years stuff is getting “old” (pun intended). It doesn’t immediately qualify whomever runs against her as deserving to win.

If you work in politics and ever had "differences" with Kyle Clark, it's because you are part of a corrupt, establishment regime that is terrified of real journalists who expose hypocrisy and corruption
𝖠𝗅𝖺𝗇 𝖥𝗋𝖺𝗇𝗄𝗅𝗂𝗇@alanfranklin

I've had my differences with Kyle Clark, but 9NEWS' accountability work has been indispensable as other outlets have abandoned accountability for stenography (or worse). Without them, things will fall through the cracks. There are beneficiaries from this but not the public.

@stevenpaletz Jason, Joe and Brittany haven't done this. Why are we giving a pass to the oldest and most "senior" Democrat in Congress from Colorado? If her younger colleagues can deal with protests and interruption without putting hands on voters, so can she after THIRTY YEARS in office.

@DeepNotShallow I dunno, looks pretty coordinated and edited. I’d suggest the way this constituent is speaking could be construed as aggressive and abusive by the congresswoman. I wasn’t there, and this video is edited to show a narrative.

Joe Neguse, Jason Crow, & Brittany Pettersen get protested too for similar votes. But none of them have chased a voter, put hands on them, or yelled. Thirty years in office and DeGette thinks she’s untouchable. Denver has gotten nothing from her. It’s time for change.

BREAKING: Rep. DeGette gets heated with a constituent pressing her on why she voted to send bombs to Israel: "If this the only issue that you care about is this issue, then you should not vote for me" DeGette, who's 68, is facing a primary challenge from @MelatKirosCO.

I’m not a big fan of these trying-to-go-viral ambushes of electeds, but goddamn Diana DeGette really couldn’t have handled this any worse. A lot of longtime incumbents haven’t faced a serious primary challenge in a long time & don’t know how to handle even a tiny bit of pressure

@stevenpaletz DeGette is a sitting congresswoman. There's always cameras pointing at her. Joe Neguse, Brittany Pettersen and Jason Crow have faced similar protests and questions. They have never once chased down a voter, yelled in their face and physically grabbed their shoulder.

@sunrisemvmt @MelatKirosCO It's been fascinating watching these longtime incumbent moderates try to make themselves more accessible with these smaller events post-Zohran and then the second they get challenged by a constituent they fall into this off-putting angry and entitled demeanor

Melat Kiros for Congress, CO-1
I’m the candidate challenging Diana DeGette. I’ll say it plain and clear: Free Palestine and we need an arms embargo on ALL weapons now. I’m not afraid to talk to voters about these issues directly and respectfully. If you want to connect, find me at kirosforco.com

Disgusting. Diana DeGette chases a voter, physically grabs them, and screams. Thirty years in office and this is the entitlement? This is what happens when politicians think the seat belongs to them instead of the people. Are we really okay with incumbents treating voters like this? Democrats cannot nominate someone accused of putting hands on voters they disagree with. Shame.

Disgusting. Diana DeGette chases a voter, physically GRABS them & screams! 30-yrs in office & this is how she treats us. Are we really okay with incumbents treating voters like this? Democrats cannot nominate someone who potentially assaults voters she disagrees with. Shame!

This is how we end up with weak, feckless leaders like Schumer & Jeffries who enable Trump & Republicans If you want a Colorado Democratic Party that answers to the working class over the donor class, then Bennet, Hickenlooper, Bird, DeGette & the rest need to lose in June
𝖠𝗅𝖺𝗇 𝖥𝗋𝖺𝗇𝗄𝗅𝗂𝗇@alanfranklin

There is not a single Democratic primary playing out in Colorado in which one candidate is ideal and the other is a monster. Not a single damn one. Anybody who comes at you with their hair on fire to the contrary should be regarded with suspicion. #copolitics
