On April 2, Colorado Springs’s Corinne Munger posted a graphic on her Facebook page. It reads: “You are allowed to terminate toxic relationships. You are allowed to walk away from people who hurt you. You are allowed to be angry and selfish and unforgiving. You don’t owe anyone an explanation…

Corrections deputy Isaac Nail has been a member of the Larimer County Sheriff’s Office for nearly twenty years, having started with the organization in November 1995. But a recent release from the sheriff’s office isn’t about his many years of service. Instead, it deals with a hit-and-run accident for which…
Last week, we told you that State Representative Gordon Klingenschmitt, a notable abortion foe (and virulent homophobe), had politicized the attack on Michelle Wilkins, whose baby was cut from her womb, during one of his regular YouTube programs. Afterward, the outrage against Klingenschmitt escalated, and his attempts to dial it…
