This Governor needs to be gone! Shame on you sir! You just caved!

Tricia Zimmerman's avatar

It makes me wonder dirt did they dig up on Polis.

That is what I am thinking because there is no benefit in this for him except keeping some dirty laundry hidden from the public.

And the laundry will eventually see the light of day as it always does. Smh

Hes gay but who cares? He's probably done with politics anyway after being Governor. What fhe heh would make him capitulate?? Has anyone asked him??? His answer about free speech h sounded just like a MAGA....that was the tell. JFC....they're inside the wire & causing damage. Schumer & Jeffries are compromised....how many ???????

Thankfully Polis is term limited. Also, Colorado Democrats stood up and censored him.

VOTE HIM OUT! The PEOPLE need to put the screws to him so he can’t govern anymore if he’s not going to work for THEM - not a dictator 😡

The Democrats have to stop playing Mr Goodguy! It gets us no where with our constituents who think we are weak and everywhere with MAGA ! Sometimes you just have to get down and dirty to show that you are not going let them win!! you want Trump and his goodies out then you have to fight harder!

Someone mentioned about Democrats needing to stop playing Mr Good Guy I totally agree, they need to treat fire with fire Democrats are two passive for me the message although they are lies from the Right is the chatter the noise that's loudest. in the media among Representatives among senators Democrats need to be more vocal and start denouncing the evil coming from the Right

Maybe the Democrats that are doing this are not as good as you think they are. There is evil in both sides. Remember that

Eric Leif Peters's avatar

Tell us, please. What “evil” is being done on the Democratic side that is in the slightest way comparable to what the Republicans are doing?

And in November what are you going to say? Oh, we can't do it yet. This excuse and that excuse and all we're going to do is sit there and say oh okay. Really excuses are both sides of the band, not just the right. It's the left too. They have excuses out there. Yang Yang

Katherine Coleman's avatar

I don't know what are they doing on the it's on both sides. They already said it was wake up and why haven't the Democrats done a darn thing on getting them impeached really it's taking this long all the way to November. Really that's bull and you know it and I know it

Not to defend Polis, but this capitulation is hardly the equal to T's setting aside $1.776B for those who broke into the Capitol and threatened, wounded elected officials and police and others, and otherwise desecrated the building.

Darnell Bush's avatar

There may be evil on both sides but I'm going to tell you right now there's more evil on the Right so what's the lesser of two evils Democrats are not trying to strip away Blacks voting rights and benefits like Republicans and this Trump administration are doing.

Katherine Coleman's avatar

Well let me see both sides. Have evil and both sides can be connected in doing this for that very reason. I guess we won't know until the end will we and if the impeachment never goes through geez I wonder why that would be. All they do is keep giving excuses. Put it through. Get rid of Congress. Get rid of The lunatic. President and JD is no better. He's just a loser. The whole Congress everyone. Why is it taking so long? Why can you answer that?

Tricia Zimmerman's avatar

Makes me wonder what dirt they dug up on Polis.

“the decision by Polis to go to legacy media and cut out independent media altogether is a pretty apt microcosm for Democrats’ failures”

“if there is one thing I want to see change on the left, it is this impotence”

These two statements sum up pretty much everything I have been feeling for so long, even during Biden‘s term and even during Trump‘s first. HOW LONG is it going to take?? Thank God for you Brian, and the other greats in independent media. Also, my first thought anytime something like this comes up is “they probably have something on him”.

Doug Bell's avatar

I hope that Colorado Dems and independents make him pay for that. Its time to vote people like him out of office. There is no room for anyone that supports trump in this country any longer.

Liana Huey's avatar

He's term-limited, but based on this action, I doubt he'll even seek a higher office. If he does (speaking as a CO resident) he'll never again be elected.

This is why the RepukliCONS are destroying our country… They suffer no consequences for their actions! Anyone who has raised a child will confirm that bad behavior is reinforced by the lack of consequences to selfish, childish actions!

History will label him a traitor. KARMA is a bitch. Just wait till she visits him!!

Rip Price's avatar

I thought for sure the Democrat named was going to be John Fetterman. I guess we'll have to add Polis to the list of traitors.

Donna's avatar

It’s either some past dirt on Polis or it’s about money. Seems to be the only reasoning anymore. (Ex: Fetterman)

I’m sure the Governor will catch HELL for this. These people have no spine to do the right thing. This strong hold he has on the Governors in Red and Blue states needs to go.

Gloria Mitchell's avatar

This is shameful. Did Trump pay Polis off? Polis needs to go, maybe he'll join the Rapeblicans.

Marion Murphy's avatar

Could not agree with your more! Shameful too when one lack courage even as one is a lame duck.

At this point, I believe our Constitution and democracy are simply performative. We are a fascist authoritarian regime and there are no real consequences for corruption. I am embarrassed by what this country has become but I have no place else to go. I have grown children relatively close by and probably only 20 more good years in me. I just want to be near my family, so I’m not going anywhere. But I also no longer take pride in who we are as a country and that’s both disappointing and sad.
