The Colorado legislature is meeting this week in a special session on property taxes — for the second time in a year. Given the twists and turns in the state’s property tax debate, it’s easy to be confused about why lawmakers — who are on the verge of passing a breakthrough deal — have convened again.

  • 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.
