A deal to avert a ballot box battle over property taxes cleared the halfway point of the legislative process Wednesday, setting it up for final passage later this week. Just after noon, the Colorado House passed the measure, which would provide homeowners and other property owners with modest additional tax relief, on a 45-18 vote, as 15 of the majority Democrats voted against it.

  • Donald's Mental Decline Was On Full Display At Arizona Rally
    Crooks and Liars, Friday - 09/13/2024 - 08:00 PM

    Former President Donald Trump's mental decline was on full display at last night's Tuscon, Arizona, rally when, among other things, he thought he was in Pennsylvania. "So Pennsylvania, remember this when you have to go to vote," Trump told the crowd at the small venue. Trump again veered off-topic to peddle his outrageous pet hoax, and that's remarkable since the former President became a laughingstock over his "They're eating the dogs!" baseless claims at the debate with Vice President Kamala Harris. "A recording of 911 calls show that residents are reporting that the migrants are walking off with the town's geese," Trump said on Thursday night.
