Welcome to the Muppet Show: Colorado GOP Edition 

Where the Zoom doesn’t work, the votes go missing, and the arrogance is thicker than a Polis’s skull.

Spoiler Alert: This is a long one, and I lost...

Patriots of Colorado’s true grassroots conservative army, grab your popcorn and settle in, because last night’s Colorado GOP Vice Chair vote wasn’t just a meeting. It was a clown car pileup so spectacular it could’ve been directed by Bozo himself, and Mad Magazine penning the script. If you managed to survive the Zoom call, or braved the cringe-fest YouTube livestream, you witnessed firsthand what political malpractice looks like.

Let’s set the scene: the State Central Committee met virtually because in-person was just too inconvenient to choose a new Vice Chair (I was one of the candidates). What we experienced instead was a Banana Republic cosplay session, minus the military uniforms but with all the corruption. The credentialing process? Imagine a security system run by toddlers (anyone get the reference here?). It took me an hour to move from the digital purgatory of the “waiting room” into the main event. And that, tragically, was peak efficiency. A few honest conservatives reported being credentialed without ever showing an ID. Nothing. Nada. Just a cheerful, “Come on in, here let’s put a “C” after your name for good measure!” Who else slipped through? No one knows. And under this administration, no one ever will. Transparency in today’s Colorado GOP is about as common as winning Powerball.

Our Chairwoman, delivering lines like a puppet mid-audition for a Jim Henson reboot. Every time Gregory Carlson whispered sweet nothings, she repeated them verbatim, as if she was just waiting for his hand to appear on her back and start moving her lips. The purple camera tint only added to the aesthetic; at any moment, I expected Cookie Monster to call for a motion and Elmo to demand a point of order.

SCC members tried to speak. They raised their hands. They waved signs. They begged to be acknowledged. People like Raymond Garcia were completely ignored, as if they were extras in the political Hunger Games. Motions? Too late. Clarifications? Denied. “Sorry,” the Chairwoman chirped. “We’ve moved on.” Better luck next time, Patriots.

Now look, this isn’t sour grapes. It’s common sense. I fell just 11 votes short, how convenient, especially in a race where votes (people) seemed to have gone missing. But here's the twist: if they’d let me win, I’d be buried in their bureaucratic mess, too busy trying to clean up their incompetence to speak the truth. Instead, they set me free. This would’ve been the perfect time to silence me to stop the relentless attacks on our milk-toast Republicans who sell out our conservative values and principles. Their own arrogance blinded them from seeing the right political move. And because of that, they made their worst mistake, because now I get to build the army that’s coming for their jobs in 2027.

You see, what these ivory tower RINOs don’t understand is the long game (bad eyesight I guess). They're so high on their own supply of self-importance, they’ve lost all connection to the true grassroots. They think “grassroots” means a few hand-picked loyalists nodding along with their bogeyman Dave Williams.

Meanwhile, I’ve been on the phone with hundreds of outstanding conservatives from Grand Junction to Pueblo, who are starving for real leadership. The kind that doesn’t bend the knee to anyone. The kind of in-your-face leadership that calls out nonsense and isn’t afraid of a fight. And that’s exactly what we’re building.

Parker Conservatives and We the People Network are expanding across the state. We’re not asking for permission; we're taking territory. We’re reaching out to county chairs. We’re engaging disillusioned Republicans. We’re speaking to the silent majority tired of being ignored as the state drifts further left, because our so-called leaders are too busy listening to the establishment and forgetting one-half of the Republican base — YOU!

So, here’s the deal: don’t mourn this disaster, celebrate it, I AM! It exposed the rot. It woke up more of the base. And it lit a fire under a movement that no Zoom Muppet Show can stop.

Come 2027, when that chairmanship is up for grabs, we won’t just be ready, we’ll be everywhere. Our true grassroots machine will be so strong, so loud, and so unstoppable that their purple-tinted Zoom rooms will look like the dress rehearsal of Night of the Living Dead.

We’re not here to manage the decline of the Colorado GOP. We’re here to take it back.

And no, I’m not done. Not even close. Stay tuned. It’s going to be HUGE!

I want to congratulate Richard Holtof for his win as Vice Chair and wish him godspeed in this new position. He's going to need it.

Hurd the Tu$d and the GORP Scam on Republicans

Patriots of CD3 and Colorado’s grassroots army, gather 'round and meet the latest Benedict Arnold in a Brooks Brothers suit: one of our own, Congressman Jeff Hurd. Once hailed as a commonsense conservative representing Colorado’s rugged CD3, Hurd has now decided he’d rather carry water for Michael Bennet and John Hickenlooper than stand up for Trump’s agenda of energy independence, private property rights, or even basic economic sanity. His weapon of betrayal? The Gunnison Outdoor Resources Protection (GORP) Act, a bloated, government-knows-best land grab disguised as “bipartisan conservation.”

Let’s be honest. The GORP Act is environmental extremism disguised as an Aspen flannel shirt. It aims to block nearly three-quarters of a million acres of Colorado land, specifically 730,000 acres, under federal designations that sound friendly and gentle - wilderness areas, special management zones, wildlife sanctuaries. In reality, this means no grazing, no drilling, no mining, no tree harvesting, and no jobs. It's just bureaucrats congratulating themselves while ranchers, drillers, and working families suffer the consequences. Truly disgusting!

Hurd is out here smiling for photo ops with Bennet and Hickenpooper while stabbing the very people who sent him to Washington in the back. Did he forget that Colorado’s oil and gas industry contributed $1.2 billion to state and local taxes in 2023? And that was during Sleepy Joe Biden’s administration! Did he miss the memo that BLM lands aren’t playgrounds for REI executives, but are vital to Colorado’s ranchers, energy workers, and small-town economies?

And let’s not pretend this is just a harmless little zoning tweak. The GORP Act withdraws 74,000 acres in Delta County from oil and gas leasing. That’s not conservation; that’s economic sabotage. This is federal overreach on steroids, locking away land for “preservation” while driving up energy prices, slashing rural revenue, and punishing the very industries that fund our schools, roads, and fire departments. You want to see the devastation? Go to Craig, Colorado. It will be what happens to all the small towns on the western slope if this passes.

Worse, Hurd is now playing both sides like a shady lobbyist in a D.C. steakhouse. On one hand, he’s supporting the GORP Act to get praise from the green progressives. On the other, he’s promoting the “Productive Public Lands Act” to undo Biden’s anti-drilling regulations. So which is it, Jeff? Are you pro-energy or pro-eco-tyranny? You can’t be both.

The truth is, Hurd is trying to have it both ways, kowtowing to Democrats while gaslighting conservatives. And in doing so, he’s proving exactly what we said he was from the start: a smooth-talking, double-dealing RINO whose loyalty is with Beltway and Aspen elites, not the real working people of CD3.

Let me be clear: Public lands belong to all Americans, not just environmental lobbyists with Aspen zip codes. Turning them into untouchable green zones for bureaucratic bragging rights is a slap in the face to taxpayers nationwide. Hurd’s actions aren’t just contradictory, they’re cowardly.

If Jeff Hurd won’t defend Colorado’s economic engine, our property rights, and our constitutional freedoms, he has no business running in CD3. He should be primaried and replaced with someone who doesn’t cave at the first whiff of a Washington cocktail reception.

In the end, the GORP Act isn’t about saving the land. It’s about saving face for a politician who forgot who he works for. And we’re not buying it.



Primary him. Replace him. Save Colorado.

The Dignity Act of Betrayal:

Gabe Evans Just Joined the RINO Parade

Let’s just rip off the Band-Aid. Gabe Evans, the guy many conservatives in CD8 thought was on the side of grassroots conservatives, has officially jumped ship and belly-flopped into the warm, squishy arms of the open-border establishment.

His shiny new toy, the so-called “Dignity Act,” is nothing short of a Trojan horse stuffed with amnesty, appeasement, and the progressive dream of a borderless America. And make no mistake: it’s a direct slap in the face to President Trump’s America First immigration agenda.

You remember Trump’s plan: Build the wall. Deport illegal aliens. Secure the damn border. Pretty simple, right? But Gabe Evans apparently thinks that’s just too mean. Too harsh. Too… effective.

Instead, Evans wants to “reward” illegal aliens with a tidy little path to legitimacy, wrapped in a bow of D.C. doublespeak and sold to us as “dignity.” You know what real dignity looks like? Enforcing the law. Protecting our sovereignty. Standing up for legal immigrants who followed the rules. What Gabe’s selling is nothing more than a backdoor amnesty scheme designed to win love letters from MSNBC and cocktail party clout in Georgetown.

Let’s be brutally honest (because that is the best way to be): this isn’t just bad policy, it's betrayal. Gabe Evans just signed his name to a bill that makes a mockery of every working-class American who’s been ignored while our communities are overrun, our jobs undercut, and our schools and hospitals overwhelmed by illegal migration. It's a kick in the teeth to the border agents who risk their lives daily, while people like Evans undermine their work from the safety of a taxpayer-funded office.

In the November 2024 election for Colorado's 8th Congressional District, Republican Gabe Evans defeated Democratic incumbent Yadira Caraveo by a narrow margin of 2,596 votes. According to the final count from the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office, Evans received 162,022 votes (48.98%), while Caraveo garnered 159,426 votes (48.19%). This razor-thin difference of less than one percentage point highlights the highly competitive nature of the race. And now you do something like this, Gabe! Did you check your brain one evening at “Le Diplomate” and forget to claim it before heading home? AFP must have been buying some strong drinks that night.

This is why we “Republicans” lose. Because we keep electing these spineless, poll-chasing chameleons who campaign as conservatives and govern like Liz Cheney on Xanax. Gabe Evans wants to wear the “Republican” label but legislate like AOC’s slightly more polite cousin. And yes, I know Trump endorsed Evans in 2024. Trump reiterated his support for Evans’ re-election on April 30, 2025, calling him an "America First Patriot." But that was before this stunt. I’m sure Trump will have something to say about it.

Let’s be clear: Gabe Evans should be primaried into oblivion! No conservative with a shred of integrity should support him. Colorado doesn’t need another squish in office parroting Democrat talking points with a red tie on. We need warriors, unapologetic, America-first conservatives who put citizens before illegals.

So Gabe, enjoy your applause from CNN. Just don’t expect one from us.

Primary him. Replace him. Save Colorado.

Lauren Boebert Just Passed HR 3095

for our small Communities

and CD4 Better Pay Attention

If you’re looking for a watered-down, go-along-to-get-along Republican, keep walking. But if you want a firebrand who fights like hell for We The People, look no further than Congresswoman Lauren Boebert. While other so-called conservatives are busy selling us out to the Democrat Swamp, Boebert is doing what every elected Republican should be doing, standing in the gap and actually getting things done for the America First movement.

Case in point? HR 3095:

H.R. 3095 directs the United States Postal Service to create unique zip codes for more than 65 cities, towns, and communities across the country. The bill, which includes 15 communities in Colorado and 33 cosponsors, is a reintroduction of the Congresswoman’s similar effort in the 118th Congress which passed through the U.S. House in December 2024.

Cities and towns like Castle Pines, Lone Tree, and Severance all have their sales tax revenue, insurance rates, mail delivery rates, and response times for first responders negatively impacted by the lack of a unique zip code for their community. This legislation will address these issues and directly improve the quality of life for Coloradans and Americans living in these communities.

Now, to the folks in Colorado’s 4th Congressional District: pay attention. Lauren Boebert hasn’t officially announced her candidacy for CD4, but let’s be honest, when she does, you’d better thank your lucky stars.

CD4 isn’t just any district. It’s ground zero in the fight to keep Colorado from turning into California East and we have work to do! And with Democrats circling like vultures, ready to pounce on an open seat, the stakes couldn’t be higher. We can’t afford to gamble on untested names or establishment darlings who talk tough on the trail and cave in D.C.

We need a proven warrior. We need someone with backbone, someone with receipts.

Boebert has been a relentless champion for President Trump, never wavering while others bent the knee to the media mob. She’s been a loud and proud MAGA voice in Congress, refusing to be silenced by the swamp. Whether it’s defending the Second Amendment, slamming the brakes on reckless spending, or exposing the deep state’s war on our liberties, Boebert hasn’t just talked the talk, she’s walked through fire to stand up for us.

To be clear: if we don’t put a conservative like Boebert in CD4, we risk handing that seat to a Democrat who will continue to accelerate Colorado's downfall.

Let’s rally around the fighter who’s already in the trenches, already delivering, and already proving that she’s got the grit to win.

Lauren Boebert isn’t just the right choice for CD4. She’s the only choice if we want to keep Colorado free.

Support her now—or regret it later.

God is among us right now. And I think that’s enough."

🚨 RINO Alert🚨

They’re Trying to Replace a Warrior with Shades of Gray

Every so often, something so jaw-droppingly stupid floats out of Colorado GOP circles that you wonder if there’s a gas leak in the State Capitol. Case in point: word is spreading, confirmed across social media and conservative networks, that the usual suspects in the Establishment RINO syndicate are mounting a primary challenge against none other than State Rep. Stephanie Luck, House District 60’s own constitutional gladiator. SEE MESSAGE BELOW 👇🏻

Yes, you heard that right. They’re coming after the most conservative legislator in the entire state, the legislator with a 98 Liberty Score, who has carried that high watermark throughout her tenure like a badge of honor. And who are they sending into the ring to try to unseat her?

Michelle Gray 🤮

Or, as I will call her, the “Gray Mistake,” a Trump coat-tail rider who thinks showing up and waving a red hat qualifies her to replace one of our movement's most reliable voices. It's like trying to replace a lion with a chihuahua wearing a MAGA sweater.

Let’s be honest: Gray didn’t "turn Pueblo red"; Donald J. Trump did. Pueblo shifted in 2016 when Trump’s America First movement swept through Colorado like a wildfire. Christy Fidura and Gray didn’t lead that movement; they just tried to catch up. Their desperate attempt to rewrite history is as ridiculous as their plan to run a milquetoast moderate against a true grassroots firebrand.

And the RINO roster behind this? Oh, it's a clown car of betrayal:

• Christy Fidura - Republican National Committeewoman, cruckus@protonmail.com
• Brita Horn - Colorado GOP Chair (who shockingly has no Liberty Score, because apparently standing for nothing makes scorekeeping unnecessary) brita@cologop.org
• House Minority “Leader” Rose Pugliese (Liberty Score: an embarrassing 62) rose.pugliese.house@coleg.gov
• Ty Winter (Liberty Score: a limp 70) ty.winter.house@coleg.gov

These people preach “unity” with the enthusiasm of a deep woods evangelist holding a rattlesnake, but when it comes to true backing for real conservatives? Crickets. Or worse, a knife in the back.

You want to know what this is really about? Power. Ego. Control. This is the Establishment throwing a tantrum because someone dares to color outside their corrupt little lines. Stephanie Luck is a threat to their grip on the party, and so they’re pulling the old “primary the conservative” routine.

To clarify: I haven’t spoken to Rep. Luck about her future plans yet, whether she runs again or takes on a bigger challenge. Either way, this RINO offensive is a betrayal of every liberty-minded Coloradan who trusted the party to fight, not fold.

So what do we do?

We stand with Rep. Stephanie Luck.

We reject the spineless attacks of the RINO establishment.

We tell Fidura, Horn, Pugliese, and Gray to grow up and sit down.

If you’re furious, and you should be, send these RINO's a message (emails above). Make some noise. Let them know that we don’t take kindly to political backstabbing in our camp.

And Michelle Gray? Do yourself a favor. Withdraw before you humiliate yourself.

And remember, people, FOLLOW THE MONEY! Let's watch to see where the “Gary Mistake’s money comes from for this campaign. Here is the link so you can view it. Check it out.

🎩

My Vice Chair Team

I'm not going to name names, as they prefer to work in the background.

These fine patriots helped in more ways than you can imagine while I ran for Colorado GOP Vice Chair.

They are politically savvy and relentless.

So, I tip my hat to these outstanding leaders!

Thank You—From the Bottom of My Heart

Dear Friends and Patriots,

I wanted to reach out personally and say thank you, deeply and sincerely—for all your dedication, hard work, and unwavering support during this campaign.

We gave it everything we had. We reached out, we rallied, we fought with purpose, and we made our voices heard. You made calls, sent messages, showed up, and let me tell you, your energy and belief in this vision gave me strength every single day.

Although we didn’t win this vote, (52% to 48%, total 11 votes) your commitment mattered. You stood for accountability. You stood for transparency. You stood for the grassroots. And that legacy doesn’t vanish with the final tally. It grows stronger.

Yes, tonight stings a little. But real change isn’t built in a single evenings it’s forged through long days, hard conversations, and unfailing resolve. And make no mistake: the work we’ve begun continues.

Moving forward, I’m 100% committed to the values we fought for:

• Putting grassroots voices first.

• Demanding transparency and accountability.

• Holding everyone, including our own, to a higher standard.

Thank you—for every minute of your time, every talk you had, every vote you pushed for. Let’s keep our momentum. Let’s keep the pressure. And let’s keep fighting for the Colorado GOP we know we can be.



With gratitude,

Mark Hampton

Thank you for stepping up and leading!

2025 Liberty Score FINAL

Recap of our Douglas County Elected Officials:

(HR) Max Brooks (R) CO045, Score 93 (New) Outstanding Max, first place! Give Max a call or send him an email and tell him thank you!

(S) Mark Baisley (R) CO004, Score 86 (73 in 2024) Great improvement over 2024!

(HR) Brandi Bradley (R) CO039, Score 87 (84 in 2024) OUTSTANDING!

(S) John Carson (R) CO030, Score 74, Not a good first-year showing

(HR) Anthony Hartsook (R) CO044, Score 68 (68 in 2024) Consistent, consistently bad for Douglas County and Colorado

(S) Lisa Frizell (R) CO002, Score 55 (72 in 2024) Soon, with dropping scores like this, you will catch Kirkmeyer

(HR) Bob Marshall (D) CO043, Score 31 (35 in 2024)

There is no spin here. These are the numbers from the Colorado Liberty Scorecard. You may not like it, but it is an impartial scoring system to our constitution. I encourage all constituents if they don't like what they see in their representative scores, call and email them (full list of contacts at the bottom of the report). Provide your elected officials with your feedback in a loud voice!

Time to Take Out the Trash

If They Want to Primary Luck, Let’s Primary the Real Problems

Alright, Colorado patriots, buckle up. It’s time to grab a coffee, put on your big-boy boots (or girl), and face the cold, hard truth: our state’s Republican roster is crawling with RINOs, those spineless, establishment types who talk a big game about “freedom” while cozying up to big donors and selling out your values and principles faster than a Polis can give money to illegal aliens. If the establishment Republican Cabal thinks they can primary one of our best, Rep. Stephanie Luck, then it’s time we turn the tables and clean house ourselves. I’m talking about a full-on conservative purge of the squishy, low-liberty-score Republicans who’ve been riding the GOP brand while betraying everything it’s supposed to stand for. Let’s get to it, and trust me, the sarcasm’s gonna flow like the South Platte after a flash flood.

Here’s the hit list, folks, our so-called “Republican” representatives who’ve earned themselves a spot on the naughty list with Liberty Scores below 70. These are the C-minus and D-listers and F for complete failures of constitutional fidelity, the ones who think “conservative values and principles” are just suggestions they can ignore when the lobbyists come knocking.

• Anthony Hartsook (HD 44, Liberty Score: 68): Oh, look, it’s the cowboy hat guy! When it comes to defending liberty, Hartsook’s about as useful as a bag of Skillets at Fat Camp. A 68? Really, Tony? That’s the kind of score you get when you’re too busy posing for photo ops to actually vote like a conservative.

• Ryan Gonzalez (HD 50, Liberty Score: 67): Gonzalez must think “liberty” is just a fancy word for “whatever gets me reelected.” With a score like that, he’s not fighting for your rights, he’s fighting for a better seat at the Progressive’s table.

• Rose Pugliese (HD 14, Liberty Score: 66): Rose, Rose, Rose. You’re out here in Colorado Springs, where folks expect rock-solid conservatism, and you’re giving us a measly 66? That’s not leadership; that’s a participation ribbon.

• Mary Bradfield (HD 21, Liberty Score: 61): Mary, bless your heart, she is serving up a masterclass in mediocrity. A 61? I’ve seen higher scores on a middle school pop quiz. She’s got experience, sure, experience disappointing the voters who trusted her to uphold their values

• Rick Taggart (HD 55, Liberty Score: 48): Rick, my man, a 48 is not a score; it’s a cry for help. You’re not just flirting with RINO status, you’ve got a full-on romance going with the Progressives. Time to pack your bags.

And don’t even get me started on the Senate. We’ve got “ten out of twelve” Republican senators scoring below 70, with standouts like:

• Cleave Simpson – Liberty Score: 47 - Simpson’s out there proving you can wear a Stetson and still vote like a bureaucrat.
• Barbara Kirkmeyer – Liberty Score: 49 - The self-appointed RINO queen of Northern Colorado.

These folks aren’t representing you, they’re representing themselves, their donors, and the same tired establishment that’s been flushing Colorado’s future down the drain. They’ll look you dead in the eye, puff out their chests, and swear they’re fighting for your freedom, but their Liberty Scores tell a different story. It’s like they think you’re too dumb to notice they’re playing both sides. Well, guess what? We’re not. Poke a finger in their chest and tell them: “No, YOU don’t understand.” We don’t want you slithering in the Capitol, compromising our conservative values and principles for a pat on the head from some lobbyist. We want you gone!

Now, let’s be real, this won’t be a cakewalk. These RINOs have deep-pocketed donors propping them up, ensuring they can keep their cushy seats while Colorado slides further into the progressive abyss. They’re not as flush as the Democrats, sure, but they’ve got enough cash to make primaries a struggle. That’s why we need to get serious about 2026. If the establishment wants to come for Stephanie Luck, one of the few who actually get what “liberty” means, then we need to hit back twice as hard. We need to find candidates who don’t just talk about constitutional values but live them. Candidates who understand that “limited government” isn’t a buzzword, it’s a way of life.

So, patriots, it’s time to roll up your sleeves. Start scouting for true conservatives in HD 14, 21, 43, 44, 50, and 55. Find people who won’t buckle under pressure, who’ll stand up to the establishment, and who’ll vote like their Liberty Score actually matters. Let’s send a message in 2026: if you betray our trust, you’re out.

No more RINOs.

No more excuses.

Colorado deserves better, and it’s up to us to make it happen.

Colorado’s Newest Crime? Doing Your Job

Welcome to Clownifornia, oh wait, sorry, Colorado, where obeying the law and working with federal immigration authorities might now land you in legal trouble. No, this isn’t satire. This is the real Banana Republic nonsense being peddled by Colorado Attorney General Phil Weiser, the guy who wants to be your next governor.

Here’s the situation: A Mesa County Sheriff's deputy dared to do his job—you know, the kind where law enforcement officers help each other out? Apparently, that’s considered a revolutionary act now. He had the audacity to assist Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) with the deportation of an illegal alien wanted for removal. And what was his reward for upholding the law? A lawsuit. From the state. From our own taxpayer-funded “justice” department.

Let that sink in: We now live in a state where if a deputy assists ICE, the Colorado Attorney General treats him like a criminal. But if a sanctuary city releases a violent illegal alien back onto the streets, crickets.

Phil Weiser, the AG in question and a loyal foot soldier in Jared Polis' Marxist militia, has decided that obeying federal law is now an obstruction of government operations. You read that right. He’s weaponizing the legal system against a lawman who tried to remove someone in the country illegally. The irony? Under CRS § 18-8-102, it’s actually Weiser who might be obstructing government operations by interfering with federal immigration enforcement.

If we had a real sheriff in this state with a spine (and thank God Mesa County seems to), they’d march into court and file criminal charges against these state goons for interfering with a lawful governmental function. Let’s be blunt: This isn’t about “protecting immigrants.” It’s about protecting illegal ones—many of whom are criminals—because it fits the left’s open-border, anti-law-enforcement agenda.

And what’s the excuse from the AG’s office? They claim the sheriff violated some “policy” about not helping ICE unless a judge signs off on it. Newsflash: ICE is a federal law enforcement agency. They don’t need Polis’ permission slip to do their job.

Let’s get this straight: if you’re a sheriff helping ICE get criminals out of our communities, you’re the enemy. But if you’re a bureaucrat actively blocking law enforcement and endangering the public, you’re a “hero of social justice.” This is the twisted dystopia Colorado has become under progressive rule.

Here’s what needs to happen:

• Sheriffs across the state should stand with Mesa County and defy these illegal orders.
• Patriots should demand the AG be investigated for Obstruction of Government Operations under CRS § 18-8-102.
• Every grassroots conservative in Colorado should rally behind lawmen who still believe in the Constitution.

If you don’t think this could happen in your county, think again. Today it’s Mesa. Tomorrow, it’s you.

So to Phil Weiser and Jared Polis: You don’t get to rewrite federal law to fit your socialist fantasy. You don’t get to criminalize duty, honor, and law enforcement. And you sure as hell don’t get to silence Colorado patriots.

Mesa County: You rock. And to the deputy they’re targeting, thank you. You’re the last line of defense between law and lawlessness. And we’ve got your back.

Trump’s America First Fireworks!

Hey, Colorado Patriots! It’s time to crank up the patriotic tunes, crack open a cold one, and celebrate the winning that President Donald J. Trump, has unleashed over the past few weeks. This is a red, white, and blue freight train of America First.

Let’s talk borders because Trump’s southern frontier is more tightly secured than a liberal’s grip on their oat milk latte. In June alone, U.S. Customs and Border Patrol recorded just 6,070 illegal crossings, the lowest in years, down 15% from the previous record set in March. Not a single illegal immigrant was released on parole last month, compared to nearly 28,000 a year ago. That’s right, zero. Nada. Zilch. Trump’s self-deportation efforts are working, with over a million people returning across the border faster than you can say “build the wall.” The administration also revived the Alien Enemies Act to expel suspected gang members like the Tren de Aragua crew. 

Now, let’s shift to the economy because Trump is turning the U.S. back into a money-making machine. The Treasury has collected $90 billion in tariff duties since January, with a record-breaking $27.2 billion surplus in June—the first June surplus since 2005. That’s not pocket change; it’s a war chest for American workers. Blue-collar wages are soaring, with the biggest increase in nearly 60 years. Over $7.6 trillion in investments have flowed in from companies and foreign governments, and the economy has added 671,000 jobs since January, all for native-born workers. Foreign-born employment? Down by 543,000. That’s Trump putting Americans first, with no apologies. 

On the world stage, Trump is playing chess while the rest of the world is stuck on checkers. He’s supported Israel with strikes on Iranian nuclear sites, sending a clear message: mess with our allies, and you’ll regret it. Meanwhile, he’s got Ukraine and Russia at the table, pushing for a ceasefire and demanding accountability for U.S. aid. And let’s not forget his withdrawal from the Paris Climate Accords, WHO, and UNESCO—because why should we fund globalist nonsense when we could be rebuilding our own infrastructure?

Then there’s the cultural victories. Trump’s going all in here. He’s signed over 170 executive orders, more than any president in their first 100 days, addressing everything from ending federal censorship to banning men from women’s sports. That’s right, folks, no more guys dunking on our daughters in basketball. He’s also cut radical DEI programs in government and K-12 schools because indoctrination has no place in our classrooms. 

Trump has also pardoned 23 anti-abortion protesters, including those protesting outside clinics, and granted clemency to over 1,500 January 6 defendants. Say what you want about January 6, but when the feds overreach, Trump’s there to call it out.

Oh, and let’s not forget the spicy stuff. Trump’s calling out the media, demanding 60 Minutes get the boot for their “fake news” antics. And when Columbia University tried to play woke, Trump yanked $400 million in federal funding until they cleaned up their act. That’s the kind of backbone we love.

He’s not perfect, but he’s a fighter, and he’s fighting for us. He is pardoning the unjustly persecuted and making the world respect America again. So, raise a glass of your favorite adult beverage or, in honor of Trump, a Diet Coke. Let’s keep pushing for the America First agenda, even in the face of squishy Republicans here in Colorado.



Trump’s on a roll, and we’re riding this wave with him.

Keep the faith, stay loud, and let’s make Colorado the tip of the spear for a conservative comeback. MAGA!

"No dream is too big. No challenge is too great.

Nothing we want for our future is beyond our reach."

I am very excited to announce the full launch of

“We the People Network”!

www.wtpnetwork.net

Quality Grassroots Conservative News and Opinion:

Where you want it, when you want it.

What is "We The People Network" all about? This is where the Real Grassroots Conservative Patriots roast Libtards and RINO’s!

Hey there, freedom lovers and truth seekers! You've stumbled upon "We the People Network," the digital campfire around which the true grassroots conservatives of Parker, Douglas County, Colorado, and our great Nation gather to warm their hands to the flames of liberty.

Are you tired of the same old song and dance from the UniParty and establishment media, where the story never changes, and the tune is always "more of the same"? Well, pull up your folding chair because we're here to change that up with some good old-fashioned grassroots conservative passion!

Here at "We the People Network," we're not just conservative, we're grassroots conservatively “conservative.” We believe in calling out the Left and just as much the UniParty, Establishment Republicans, and those pesky RINO’s faster than you can say "taxation is theft."

What's on the menu, you ask? A hearty helping of news, opinion, and a side of sarcasm, all served fresh. We're serving up stories that the mainstream media wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole unless, of course, they could use it to prop up their narratives.

Our mission? To embolden you, the backbone of America, with the truth bombs that'll make you the most interesting person at any gathering or, more importantly, at the voting booth. We're here also to support those brave souls running for Republican office who actually remember what the Constitution looks like.

Think of us as your one-stop shop for:

• News: The kind that doesn't make you feel like you're being sold swampland in Washington, DC.
• Opinion: Rants with the sharpness of a skilled surgeon.
• Activism: Because shouting at your TV only does so much.

Think of us like Turning Point’s rowdy older uncle, who shows up to the family reunion in his pick-up, 12 pack under his arm, a cigar, holding a megaphone. We're here to amplify the grassroots conservative voice, ensuring that "We the People" isn't just a catchy preamble but a living, breathing movement.

So, if you're ready to join the ranks of the informed, the irked, and the outright indignant, welcome aboard. Let's expose some Leftist Progressives, UniParty, Establishment Republicans, RINOs, and those new Trans-Republicans, and support our fellow patriots, and maybe, just maybe, save the republic one click at a time.



 "Everybody has an opportunity in America. I don’t care if guys whine and complain about this or that. You know, no country affords its inhabitants the opportunities

that the U.S.A. gives to its people.”

Bobby Knight

So, a question you might have is, “Why Honey Badger”?



Honey Badgers have been described in the Guinness Book of Records as the "most fearless animal in the world" and can even fight off much larger predators like lions and hyenas if challenged. We know the political landscape is filled with hyenas, thus, we need the Honey Badger.

"You may think that I'm a confrontational jerk, and you may be right. But the confrontational jerk community serves an important purpose. No cultural battle can be won or has ever been won anywhere in the world without us.

You need us, whether you like it or not."
