@pweiser Wow, you are just admitting how mentally ill you are.........

BREAKING-We just took the Trump Administration to court for the 64th time, standing up for our elections & mail-in voting system. The unlawful executive order threatens the right to vote for millions of Coloradans & is a clear overreach of his authority. coag.gov/press-releases…

@MyrtleStricke @bennyjohnson How do you figure we are losing? Irans navy is gone, their airforce is gone, 10,000 rocket sites are gone. all of their mine laying vehicles are gone. and we have lost 1 air vehicle to the enemy. Pull you head out of your ass.

@bennyjohnson I thought Trump said Iran was NOT a threat and the U.S. was WINNING? All Trump does is LIE, LIE, & LIE The U.S. is LOSING Trump has BLOOD on his hands

🚨BREAKING: A U.S. F-15 pilot who was downed over Iran has been recovered safely: “We can confirm with well placed sources that one of the crew members of the F-15E warplane that went down over Iran has been rescued and is safe at this moment in time.”

I want to apologize for not responding to any of the 22 thousand comments my last post inspired. I’ve been filming all week and just noticed my observations about Jimmy Kimmel and a former plumber named Markwayne Mullin have gone viral. I've also noticed that many of the comments are from people who genuinely seem to believe that Jimmy wasn’t belittling plumbers at all, but was instead, simply trying to point out that Mullin is not qualified to lead the DHS. Here's a small smattering... Roger Bicknell... Mikey stop. Kimmel wasn't making fun of plumbers he was making fun of Mullin. Rebecca Piatt Gonzalez... Dearest Mike, it's not anything to do with his being a plumber. It's him NOT being skilled in Homeland Security. Patrick Wise... Being a plumber qualifies you to be a plumber. Period. The issue Jimmy and the rest of us at the adult table recognize is that jobs require certain training and experience and being a plumber does not qualify you to be Sec of DHS. Had Roger, Rebecca, Patrick and all the others who rushed to Jimmy’s Kimmel’s defense actually read what I had written, they would see that I did not suggest - even remotely - that a plumber was inherently qualified to hold a cabinet position. What I said was that being a plumber should not disqualify a person from holding such a position. Big difference. Doctors, lawyers, veterinarians, fireman, and university professors are no more or less qualified to run the DHS than plumbers, electricians, or carpenters – but should they all be dismissed as “unqualified” simply because they made a living in some other vocation? As I wrote in my original post, credentials and diplomas are great ways to bolster a person’s credibility, especially if we’re talking about mastering a specific skill. I think we can all agree that plumbers, accountants, mechanics, and surgeons should all have to prove themselves competent before hanging out a shingle. But what do their credentials and diplomas have to do with their actual competency? Are we not already surrounded by a legion of perfectly qualified experts who don't know what the hell they're doing? Moreover, what do credentials and experience have to do with wisdom, honesty, common sense, integrity, courage, the ability to lead, or any other virtue we’d like to have in our elected officials? There are plenty of legitimate reasons to question Mullin’s suitability for this role. But there’s no legitimate reason to disqualify him simply because he used to be a plumber. Just as there was no legitimate reason to dismiss AOC because she used to tend bar. As for the joke itself, here’s an honest question. If Senator Mullin was a retired doctor instead of a retired plumber, do you believe he would have would made the same joke? Roger, Rebecca, Patrick...be honest. Do you really think Jimmy would have said to his audience, "So, now we have a DOCTOR in charge of protecting us from terrorism? Hey – it worked for Dr. Suess – maybe it’ll work for Markwayne!" Personally, I don't. Not in a million years. Why? Because no one would have found it funny, that’s why. Even though doctors are no more “qualified” to protect us from terrorists than plumbers are, Jimmy knows that doctors are widely respected in society, and that plumbers are not. He knows that medical degrees and doctorates are aspirational credentials, whereas plumbing certificates are not. The entire premise of his joke was based on a personal bias that he knew his audience shared – a bias that presupposes plumbers are uneducated, one-dimensional workers who never made it to college, and are therefore "unqualified" to do anything but plumb. Jimmy is entitled to his opinion, along with anyone else who believes that Mullin is unqualified to lead the DHS. The Constitution, however, says otherwise, and so does the Senate. Likewise, reasonable people can disagree as to what is funny and what isn’t. Frankly, I couldn’t care less. What I do care about, is the extraordinary shortage of plumbers and electricians our country is facing, and the longstanding stigmas and stereotypes that continue to discourage people from considering a lucrative career in the skilled trades. Jimmy’s joke – and his audience’s reaction to it – is proof positive that those stigmas and stereotypes are alive and well. PS. We have a lot of money set aside to help train the next generation of plumbers. Apply for a scholarship at mikeroweworks.org Who knows? Could be the first step on your road to President..

@AmericanEthical In reality this is the exact opposite of what is reality.

This is one of the best Saturday Night Live skits ever! Americans are waking up! #maga #TrumpWarCrimes

@greendragonhq New york will be bankrupt soon.

MAGA is fuming after Zohran Mamdani continues to deliver on campaign promises. Despite Republicans saying it could not be done, daycare for children in New York City is now free saving families $20,000 per child per year. Turns out you can accomplish amazing things when you stop giving tax cuts to billionaires and funding endless Middle Eastern wars.

@GBX_Press Bunker buster landing in 3..2...1..

🚨 BREAKING ​The Iranian Revolutionary Guard has released footage of a massive number of Shahed-136 kamikaze UAVs ready for use in underground storage facilities.

@lecternleader Lol

In 2021, the January 6th riot caused $1–2 billion in property damage—the costliest civil unrest in U.S. history—across over 140 cities from arson, looting, and vandalism. At least 19–25 people died in related violence, including shootings and incidents amid the chaos. Republicans want you to forget.

@schotts I'm down for that!

Breaking: Wyoming has announced it will be annexing Colorado #copolitics #coleg This move is to protect its Coloradans from: 1) The rapid expansion of government into literally everything 2) Speech codes disguised as “community standards” 3) The destruction of 2A Rights 4) Erosion of 1A Rights 5) Elimination of parental rights 6) Government waste, fraud and abuse 7) A high cost of living due to government mismanagement 8) A steady stream of lies, gaslighting and pure bullshit that comes out of the mouths of Colorado leftists as they push for communism. Wyoming Governor (reportedly on horseback, obviously) released a statement: “Colorado is a beautiful state with great people trapped under an aggressive progressive lefty experiment. We believe they deserve restoration of constitutional rights, parental rights, the ability to raise their kids without a forced agenda, and to not need a Polis permission slip to exercise constitutional freedoms.” The plan includes: - Immediate restoration of parental rights - Immediate restoration of 2A rights - Immediate restoration of 1A rights - Stopping the forced LGBTQ agenda in schools and public policy - Replacing bureaucracy with common sense - Making it legal to say what you think without a committee review - And issuing every resident a complimentary copy of the Constitution - Complete restoration of freedom which the progressives of Colorado took away. Sources say Colorado are ecstatic about renewed freedom and residents are anxious for lower taxes, more affordability, fewer lectures, 1A and 2A rights restored and remembering what normal feels like.

@GovofCO Those a re big words from a person that has pretty much crippled colorados economy and completely ignored our crumbling roads.

The Santa Fe area will be a great addition to Colorado. It is no secret that Colorado and New Mexico are two of the best places to live, work, and play, and we would be thrilled to welcome our friends in Northern New Mexico to our great state and to protect them from aggression from Texas. Let’s be serious, there’s no way that Texas could handle actually annexing this land. We can protect the rich culture, including the arts and restaurant scenes in these communities, while also mutually strengthening our economies and avoiding spreading Texas’s failed leadership any further. Not to mention the fact that this will mean more Pueblo chiles for all. This isn’t like Trump trying to take over Greenland; it’s totally different and definitely legal. I look forward to building on Colorado's past 150 years by growing our state in this next chapter. The partition of New Mexico will go down in history as a big win for Colorado.

I asked Grok what AI would do to humanity after it is fully unleashed, and this is what it gave me.

This one is better

Yep

@bananflewgan @cy1nus Here is proof you are dumb

@TheDenverXP @cy1nus ”This wasn't a direct sale "to give to Elon and his brother"—Elon was a child/teen at the time”

what college student can afford to rent a 10 bedroom house

@abcdeth1 @InsaneCope Duh, dip shit. That is why the dude had a problem with it.

@TheDenverXP @InsaneCope Hey dumbfuck... the post is saying that no one is 150 so why the fuck do they have someone who supposedly is 150 on their records receiving benefits...

@bananflewgan @cy1nus You did not read the book. You are a liar.

@TheDenverXP @cy1nus Yeah, I did and it’s not true, he got 100k student loans after graduating, maybe read more

@bananflewgan @cy1nus It is in his biography by Issacson. Read more.

@TheDenverXP @cy1nus Omg, did you hear that from your democrat soy boyfriend?

@SenatorBennet Shut up liar.

At a time when the Trump Administration has gutted the Forest Service’s workforce and stalled critical wildfire mitigation and land management efforts, scarce resources have no business going toward a project that benefits only the very wealthy. That’s why I introduced legislation with @RepJoeNeguse to block the access road to the Berlaimont Estates luxury development project in the White River National Forest. I will keep fighting to ensure taxpayer dollars work for all Coloradans. coloradosun.com/2026/03/30/ben…

@allenanalysis 8 million? Maybe 80 thousand.

🚨HOLY SMOKES: Trump spent weeks calling on Iranians to rise up and overthrow their government. They didn’t. Instead 8 million Americans rose up against his. In 3,000 cities. On the same day. The regime change he wanted happened in the wrong country’s streets. Iran’s Foreign Minister said the people being killed are dying because Trump wants to have fun. 8 million Americans said they’re not having fun. Philadelphia. Atlanta. Dallas. DC. San Francisco. New York. London. Tel Aviv. Scotland. San Diego. The uprising came home.
