Former Congressman Tom Tancredo is running for governor of Colorado in 2008. It’s Tancredo’s third bid for the office, and he remains as outspoken as ever on topics such as immigration, education, health care, marijuana and more, as he demonstrates in this frank and wide-ranging question-and-answer session.
In September, Hyperloop One, whose high-tech tube transportation concept is central to a firm affiliated with billionaire Elon Musk, of Tesla Motors and SolarCity fame, identified a route largely based in Colorado as one of the ten strongest in the world and entered into a public-private partnership with the Colorado Department of Transportation to launch a feasibility study here. An author who promoted a similar concept in a book published fourteen years ago, cheers this development, but he argues that if the system is built above ground, as opposed to employing tunnels, it won’t succeed and could turn into a disaster.
The Denver Broncos’ 20-17 loss to the Cincinnati Bengals at home on Sunday, November 19, represents the latest low point in a season full of them. On Twitter, fans who’ve previously called for the signing of controversial QB Colin Kaepernick or (God help us) Tim Tebow and the firing of first-year head coach Vance Joseph reacted emotionally, expressing humiliation over the squad’s sorry performance, as seen in our top tweets roundup below.
Immigration continues to be a divisive topic among readers and the city. We recently reported that city employees who assist Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers face “fines, jail time and even firing.” Readers were torn about the news.
While the supporters of Amendment 64 have been celebrating the fifth anniversary of the 2012 vote that legalized recreational marijuana in Colorado, other groups are continuing to campaign against cannabis, including the Marijuana Accountability Coalition, which paid for an anti-pot billboard downtown this month that asked this question: Are you…
And they aren’t happy.
On November 13, Todd Mitchem, a Libertarian candidate for the 2nd Congressional District seat currently occupied by Jared Polis, announced that he was dropping out of the race. In response, another candidate for that seat, Independent Nick Thomas, wrote this response.
After weeks of waiting, organizers of the Annual 420 Rally in Civic Center Park heard today, November 17, that their appeal of violations imposed by Denver Park and Recreation on this year’s event was denied.

Edwards takes issue with Coffman’s frequent challenges against President Donald Trump, argues Roy Moore should have his day in court, and promises to vote conservative every time.
In 2013, Zackary Moffitt died of a heart attack in Summit County after three days during which authorities essentially ignored escalating medical symptoms associated with alcohol detoxing, including hallucinations and repeated vomiting of green bile. Now, more than four years later, Summit County has agreed to pay Moffitt’s still-young children $3.5 million to settle the case.
These ten strains typically provide a good mixture of appetite and relaxation without paranoia or the instant comedown: perfect for Thanksging
What does Google think about certain celebrities? A quick way to find out is to type in the word “is” and a famous name in the query box. You’ll be offered a list of the most popular searches for that person. Back in 2014, we tried this trick with a slew of the best known Coloradans in entertainment, sports and politics, and the results were often weird and consistently funny. Here’s our hilarious update.
Jose Ocampo, the first of two men convicted of murder in the death of aspiring rapper Michael House, has been sentenced to life in prison without parole plus 36 years for his actions.

Denver International Airport officials can now turn their attention to choosing new voices for the train, finding the right people to represent the state, people who might even stick around. And so they’ve announced a contest to find The Voice.
Because cannabis is a federal Schedule I substance, state-licensed cultivators, infused-product manufacturers and dispensary owners are unable to file for business expense deductions available to other industries. Colorado politicians want to change that.
Millions upon millions of people have bought and sold items on Craigslist without a problem. But that doesn’t mean horror stories involving the service are unknown, as Anthony Mott understands very well. Last year, the Jefferson County homeowner was tied up, threatened with a knife and robbed by two men who responded to a Craigslist ad, one of whom Mott managed to kill after freeing himself. Now, David Mascarenas, the surviving partner in crime, has pleaded guilty and faces decades behind bars for his role in this nightmare scenario.
On December 5, the U.S. Supreme Court will consider whether Denver-based Masterpiece Cakeshop owner Jack Phillips discriminated against a gay couple, Charlie Craig and David Mullins, by refusing to make them a wedding cake. Phillips justifies his actions because the Craig-Mullins union contradicts his conservative Christian views, and he’s backed by the faith-based Alliance Defending Freedom and President Donald Trump’s Justice Department. But a representative from the Interfaith Alliance of Colorado, which has joined an amicus brief accessible below that opposes this position, says a ruling for Phillips would essentially suggest that one Christian belief system is more important than others.
Kentucky had a history with hemp long before the recent wave of cannabis legalization.
Last week, authorities in Pueblo conducted a new series of searches in the case of Kelsie Schelling, a onetime resident of Denver (she lived in the Larimer Square area) who vanished more than four years ago after heading south to tell her boyfriend, Donthe Lucas, that she was pregnant. The searches focused on locations associated with Lucas, a person of interest in Schelling’s disappearance, and while they turned up no new evidence linking him to the disappearance, he was arrested days later at Denver International Airport for an unrelated robbery case — although one commenter on the Help Find Kelsie Facebook page saw a connection anyhow.
