@HeIsRightAgainX Jared moved his gr$$n-grift activist from CDOT to direct the PUC for the same effect. Now Colorado has spent over $700million per year to gain 2% meh energy while losing nearly 40% of its reliable power. Jared’s “fix” is blackouts.
Moving on to the State Legislature, there are four Senate seats that Republicans have an opportunity to flip this year: Senate District 3 in Pueblo is an open-seat and @dana4colorado can perform better than the last candidate who lost by only 1,705 votes! In Colorado Springs, all eyes are on SD11 which has 3 Republican candidates: Nickolas Razo, Levon Stilson and Mark Tisdale @MarkTisdaleSD11 (apologies if the others have X accounts, I couldn't find them with a quick search). Current Senator Tony Exum only won by 2,216 votes four years ago. Senate District 15 in the Northern part of Colorado has an opportunity to elect Rob Woodward (formerly served in this seat: @SenatorWoodward) and defeat one of the most authoritarian Senators in Colorado, Janice Marchman. Woodward lost to Marchman in 2022 by only 1,014 votes. And, recently added to the list is SD21 which Frederick Alfred Jr @FredforColorado is now running in! This seat was recently vacated and is now up for election this year. Just two years ago, the Democrat won with only 1,456 votes!
The Majority Leader just enacted Rule 14, limiting debate on both SB26-018 and HB26-1322 to 3 hours each. We will never be ok with silencing the voice of the people.
⚖️ Is the "conventional wisdom" on birthright citizenship about to be overturned? This Wednesday, the Supreme Court hears Trump v. Barbara, a case that could redefine who is automatically granted U.S. citizenship. While many believe President Trump’s executive order is unconstitutional, a closer look at the "original meaning" of the 14th Amendment suggests otherwise. The Core Debate: The 14th Amendment grants citizenship to those born in the U.S. AND "subject to the jurisdiction thereof." The Argument: Originalist scholars argue that "jurisdiction" doesn't just mean following local laws—it means owing total, exclusive allegiance to the U.S. Historical records show the drafters intended to exclude those owing allegiance to "any foreign power." Past rulings like Elk v. Wilkins required "direct and immediate allegiance" for citizenship. The famous Wong Kim Ark case only addressed children of "permanent residents," not those here illegally or on temporary visas. The Bottom Line: If the Court follows the original intent of the 14th Amendment, birthright citizenship may soon be limited to children of citizens and green-card holders, excluding those born to nonresident or undocumented parents. #SupremeCourt #Constitution #14thAmendment #LegalNews #BirthrightCitizenship #selection-737.0-843.171" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">archive.is/JxPh9#selectio…
