@DisgracedProp Are those natural gas fire pits? Must be for all the elite Libtard Hipsters that support PUC eliminating natural gas in Colorado.

You don’t hate Colorado enough

@dnvr_is_burning 🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦

Restaurants in Denver are required to start composting thanks to Den City Council The restaurant industry here is already struggling...why would we put more costs on them right now?? Cost of living is already insane...why is local gov making us pay even more to go out to eat?

@JonoSteele @VicLombardi I get such a positive vibe from your douchery.

@VicLombardi Narrator: The Rockies went on to get swept in the World Series, and have been an embarrassment to the MLB ever since

Feels like yesterday.

On this day in 1836, 342 Texian prisoners of war were marched out of Presidio La Bahía at Goliad and massacred on the orders of Santa Anna. They had surrendered under terms of honorable treatment. The Mexican government executed them anyway. Texas never forgot. Neither should you. Remember Goliad. Never surrender.

Good luck to all of our Minor League affiliates this season! 💜

@Rockies_Now We are in the pennant race

Well well well…would you look at that 😎

Six weeks after September 11, 2001, twelve American soldiers were quietly loaded onto a helicopter in Uzbekistan and flown over the Hindu Kush mountains in the dead of night. No tanks. No armored vehicles. No air support waiting on the ground. Just twelve Green Berets, over a hundred pounds of gear each, and a mission that their own commanders privately doubted any of them would survive. They landed in a remote Afghan village called Dehi, in the pitch black, surrounded by a country they barely had maps for. And then someone handed them horses. Not metaphorically. Actual horses — Afghan stallions, tough as nails and famously difficult to control. Wooden saddles covered in carpet scraps. Stirrups so short their knees rode up around their ears. Captain Mark Nutsch, who'd grown up on a cattle ranch in Kansas and competed in collegiate rodeos, became trail boss on the spot. For the other ten men on his team — Operational Detachment Alpha 595 of the 5th Special Forces Group — the learning curve was immediate and unforgiving. The first words one of his sergeants learned in Dari were: "How do you make him stop?" They had linked up with General Abdul Rashid Dostum, a Northern Alliance warlord who controlled thousands of fighters and knew this territory like the back of his hand. The deal was simple: the Americans would call in precision airstrikes from horseback. Dostum's cavalry would do the charging. Together, they would take Mazar-i-Sharif — a Taliban stronghold of 250,000 people — and crack open northern Afghanistan. Military planners had estimated it would take two years. Task Force Dagger gave ODA 595 three weeks. For 23 days of nearly continuous combat, the Horse Soldiers lived like men from a different century. They ate what the Afghans ate. They slept on the ground in freezing mountain passes. They rode trails so narrow and sheer that one wrong step meant a thousand-foot drop. Staff Sergeant Will Summers started the mission at 185 pounds. He left Afghanistan five weeks later weighing 143. The Taliban had tanks. Soviet-era armor, antiaircraft guns, fortified positions dug into the mountains. Against this, twelve Americans on horseback radioed coordinates to aircraft circling invisibly above, and watched the positions erupt. On November 9, 2001, they rode into the kind of moment that people are not supposed to experience in the modern world. Nutsch and his team joined hundreds of Dostum's horsemen in a thundering cavalry charge across an open plain — directly into entrenched Taliban lines. Under fire. At a gallop. Calling in close air support between strides. It was the first cavalry charge of the 21st century. It was also the last. The next day, Mazar-i-Sharif fell. The Taliban's northern stronghold collapsed. Within weeks, the regime itself began to unravel — a domino effect that started with twelve men and borrowed horses in the mountains. All twelve of them came home. Zero American fatalities. Against a fortified enemy that outnumbered and outgunned them at every turn. Today, across from Ground Zero in New York City, there is a bronze statue — sixteen feet tall — of a Special Forces soldier on horseback, rifle across his lap, looking west. It honors ODA 595 and the teams who rode with them. Most Americans walk past it every day without knowing the story. Now you do.

It's fitting that 🇳🇿New Zealand's national bird is the kiwi: Because like the kiwi bird which was isolated with no predators, it lost the ability to fly and became easy prey when threats arrived. New Zealand imbibed the luxury belief that geography equals security, that "international order" is a given, and that someone else (the US or Australia) would always come to the rescue. Then when Chinese naval task forces started conducting live-fire drills near its waters and aggressively militarizing islands nearby, it finally woke up. Today New Zealand's army is small, while their navy barely has any fighting vessels left; their air force has NO fighter force whatsoever. This situation was really supercharged under the former PM Jacinda Ardern. Not only did New Zealand cuck itself by with pacifist posturing, it also indulged in her favorite ideological program, implanting DEI in every domain, and adopting the "Maori ways of knowing" in science curricula (lmao). Then Adern abandoned the country, took her family, and went to Australia (LMAO). Now, New Zealand has to build its armed forces practically from scratch. New Zealand is learning, late, that in a contested world, hard power still matters and predators don't respect flightless birds. This is the consequence of electing people drunk on idealism. Now, the NZ government is pledging billions to recruit personnel, buy helicopters, drones, anti-tank missiles, and boost spending toward 2% of GDP. It's a necessary correction, but rebuilding combat capability from near-scratch will take decades

@dnvr_is_burning Yet all of our property taxes went up. Outstanding‼️

People are reporting that tax-funded "affordable" housing complexes in Denver are having to drop their rents to attract renters People don't even wanna live in Denver when they're getting subsidized to do it... economic code red I think the gov can stop building these now

"A society that has secured abundant energy, industrial production, and physical safety creates the conditions in which political attention can migrate upward into questions of identity, moral positioning, and self-actualization." 1/6

@rockiesbottom @yamilethhhm 🤔

@yamilethhhm Yeah, I’m starting to think we’ll never win the World Series

colorado is in a stage 1 drought…. ARE YALL NOT CONCERNED

@yamilethhhm Im concerned with the libtard deficit.

@nfergus @gerardtbaker Would not have mistook Baker as a millennial not knowing history before the year 2k 🤷‍♂️ But opinionated people with a narrow focus sometimes “ miss things”!

Ever heard of Grenada, Gerry? A member of the Commonwealth (head of state Queen Elizabeth II, Governor-General Sir Paul Scoon), the island was invaded by the U.S. on October 25, 1983. Codenamed Operation Urgent Fury, the U.S. invasion was condemned by the UN General Assembly as "a flagrant violation of international law." 45 Grenadian soldiers and 24 civilians were killed in three days of fighting.

Please tell us, Sir Niall, from your vast bounty of historical knowledge, about the times Reagan, Eisenhower, Nixon, Kennedy, Johnson, Reagan et al threatened to invade and occupy by force - killing, if necessary, allied troops - the territory of Nato allies.

@Lily4Liberty omahafoundation.org/news/nebraska-…

Massive Nebraska wildfires have burned over 800,000 acres. Generational ranches have been devastated. Farmers & ranchers across the country are sending hay & feed, to help their brothers. This is a real America story that is not covered by the media.

@brithume @BobHaynesdenver and the Libtards would still find fault.

From Bret Stephens in today's NY Times: "if past generations could see how well this war has gone compared with the ones they were compelled to fight at a frightening cost, they would marvel at their posterity’s comparative good fortune. They would marvel, too, at our inability to appreciate the advantages we now possess."
