NEW: Aurora Police say an ICE detention center employee shot a protester last night. She is expected to survive.

Reminder to Colorado journalists: if you’re interviewing a winning candidate who usually claims that elections are rigged, ask them why this election was rigged in their favor.
If there was any doubt that Gov Jared Polis’ legacy is freeing Tina Peters, the NYT reports Polis just fired the clemency board members who revealed he overruled their unanimous wishes www.nytimes.com/2026/07/01/u...
Nothing quite captures the spirit of America 250 like promising a century of single party rule if only one party can change election laws.
Gov. Jared Polis passed over other deserving inmates to give clemency to Tina Peters, according to two members of his clemency board who revealed Polis overruled the unanimous recommendation of his experts. Polis has now fired both of them.
NEW: The Associated Press has called the Colorado GOP Gov primary for ministry leader Victor Marx.
Here is my interview with Marx in May about his unsubstantiated claims, the number of people he's killed as a civilian, and the exorcisms he performs.
Among the documents released by the White House tonight is this claim that Colorado's voter registration rolls were "compromised" by China.

Democratic Socialist Melat Kiros extends her lead to 4.5% over Democratic Rep Diana DeGette.
Goodnight, folks.
President Trump used a primetime address to make false claims, threaten news outlets, and release documents that misleadingly suggest Colorado's public voter rolls were "compromised" by China.
NEW: Democratic Socialist Melat Kiros leads Rep Diana DeGette by 2% in the first round of ballots from Denver (approx 2/3rds of the vote).
These were the votes most likely to be favorable for DeGette. This could be over early for the 29 year incumbent. Astonishing.
"They said you cant win without corporate PAC money. They said you can't beat a 30 year incumbent," Melat Kiros tells her supporters. "You are the proof that the power of organized people beats the power of organized money."

More national attention for Colorado’s Gov race. The LA Times writes that GOP candidate Victor Marx is “what happens when a party stops seriously competing and instead indulges its fever dreams.” www.latimes.com/politics/sto...
Colorado's most prominent election rigging conspiracy theorists (elected and unelected) are very, very quiet on social media tonight after Trump's address.
A Coloradan named Kyle Clark got a thousand comments from strangers on his family's birth announcement on Facebook. My apologies.
If Victor Marx loses the primary for Colorado governor, we may never find how many people he’s killed. And I am still really curious.
Happy Pride! Let’s support mental health care and wellness programs for LGBTQ Coloradans. I’ll match the next fifty $5 donations to Rocky Mountain Equality: www.coloradogives.org/story/word-o...
I messed up badly. Had I known the CO SEN Dem primary would be remotely this close, I would’ve attempted to organize a debate and covered the race differently.
NEW: NBC News projects AG Phil Weiser defeats Sen. Michael Bennet for the Democratic nomination for Colorado Governor.
Weiser will almost certainly be Colorado's next Governor as Coloradans have elected just one Republican Governor in 55 years.
My first TikTok mentioning China and my first violation/removal. What’re the odds?
NEW: GOP Gov candidate Victor Marx is suggesting he’s endorsed by former Colorado Gov Bill Owens.
Owens tells me that’s not true.
