Colorado is apparently having the same problem as many other blue states. Companies are fleeing to do business elsewhere.

It’s the same thing we have seen in California and other states that have been run exclusively by Democrats for years. This is what one-party rule gets you.

Business leaders in the state are finally starting to sound the alarm. Is it already too late?

CBS News in Colorado reports:

Hundreds of Colorado business leaders call for action as nearly 100 companies leave the state

Colorado is losing businesses and jobs at an alarming rate.

Now, the ones who’ve stuck around are calling on state leaders to make changes before things get even worse.

The Colorado Chamber of Commerce has been sounding an alarm for years about excessive regulation and, last year, more people moved out of Colorado than into the state.

The chamber says companies are also relocating out-of-state. It released data showing, since 2019, 98 companies have either left the state, expanded elsewhere, or scrapped plans to move here.

That’s resulted in more than 13,000 lost jobs.

Since 2022, Colorado has also had a net loss of 34 public company headquarters. Some of the states seeing gains from Colorado’s losses included Texas, California and North Carolina.

More than 200 business and civic leaders signed a letter to Gov. Jared Polis, Sen. John Hickenlooper, Denver Mayor Mike Johnston, and Democratic gubernatorial candidates Michael Bennet and Phil Weiser. It warns of dire consequences if Colorado doesn’t become a more welcoming place for job creators.

“We are going to be hurting Colordans not just now, but the next generation, the next generation after that. And we just want to course correct,” said tech entrepreneur and investor Dan Caruso.

It wasn’t always like this.

When people come to red states, they should leave their blue state voting habits behind.

The people at MSNOW are truly disgusting. Every time you think that they can’t go any lower, they do.

During a recent discussion on the network, host Stephanie Ruhle and her guests yukked it up as they suggested that Iran believes in something, unlike Trump. One guest also chimed in to call Trump unpatriotic. It’s amazing how hateful and stupid these people are.

This is part of a broader media pattern we are witnessing right now. Liberals in media want the operation in Iran to fail because they want Trump to fail. Once again, they hate Trump more than they love the country.

Transcript via NewsBusters:

RICK STENGEL: He doesn’t understand anybody who believes in anything. And by the way, the people who are really –

STEPHANIE RUHLE: I mean this is a phenomenal point because you could disagree with Iran and what their point of view is, but it’s – the fact that they have a deep belief in something. That’s unfathomable to him.

STENGEL: That they will die for.

RUHLE: That they will die for. That they’ll destroy their country for.

STENGEL: Yes. I mean, he has no ideological belief or patriotism about America, and he doesn’t think anybody else does. So, when he sees Iranians lining up around power grids, he can’t understand that. He thinks they’re being paid to do it. But the people who can identify with this, who are very, very unhappy about this are the Gulf States.

Here’s the video:

It’s especially rich to hear these people claim that Trump has no patriotism. This is a network that constantly platforms people who openly hate America, hate its history, and regularly criticize pretty much everything it stands for.

Texas Democrat James Talarico Said Having Police in Schools Fuels ‘Culture of Violence’ in Newly Resurfaced Audio

We haven’t heard much lately from James Talarico, the Texas Democrat running for a U.S. Senate seat in November. Perhaps he has been trying to keep a low profile. Every time this guy turns around, a bizarre new video or audio clip of him surfaces somewhere highlighting his utterly bonkers view of Christianity.

Now there is another one.

In this case, Talarico says that having police in schools fuels a culture of violence. This goes directly to the idiotic Democrat idea of defunding the police.

Also, why would anyone object to having more police in schools? It could save lives.

FOX News has details:

Rising Dem Talarico denies anti-cop label after ‘culture of violence’ comments exposed

Texas Democratic Senate candidate James Talarico is pushing back on the idea that he supports defunding the police, calling it a “flat-out lie.”

Republicans are confronting Talarico with resurfaced comments from a 2019 episode of the Trey Blocker Show, in which he suggests that a heavy police presence in schools without sufficient mental health professionals contributes to a “culture of violence.”

Democrats believe they have a shot at flipping the critical Senate seat blue for the first time in decades. But the GOP hopes to defend its Senate majority by highlighting Talarico’s more controversial stances to undermine his moderate appeal.

The latest to be unearthed is from the 2019 interview, in which Talarico decried plans to increase police officer presence in schools without also placing more emphasis on mental health.

“We’re all concerned about school safety and recent school shootings, and that concern, in some ways, has been channeled unproductively toward militarizing schools and toward kind of leaning into a culture of violence and adding more law enforcement officials into campuses,” he posited.

As a solution, Talarico, a former middle school teacher, touted the first bill he introduced as a member of the Texas House of Representatives, which would have mandated a set ratio of mental health workers for every police officer placed in a school.

Listen to the audio below:

It’s actually difficult to imagine the people of Texas electing this wing nut, but don’t say it could never happen.

People need to get out and vote.

Last night on the Gutfeld! show, Greg and his panel talked about a trans professor from Canada who recently went viral as she/he/they talked about wanting to do ‘sexual orientation’ work with kids as young as kindergarten age.

Greg called the professor repulsive, after using the words ‘you sick, fat, f**k.’

Kat Timpf pointed out that if this person is hearing from a lot of kids that they are trans, it is because of him/her/they, not the kids.

The video below includes comments from the professor and then Greg and the rest of the crew.

Watch the whole thing:

This professor was in the news a few days ago for a controversy over pronouns.

The New York Post reported:

Trans Canadian researcher gets roasted for using ludicrous pronouns: ‘lower case letters please’

A woke Canadian academic whose research includes working with young children to create “queer- and trans-centered spaces” is drawing mockery online for his choice of pronouns — his full name, all lowercase.

The PhD — who is transgender and presents as a man with a goatee — asked on Facebook to be referred to by his full name, j wallace skelton, in place of traditional third-person pronouns like him, her or they — including the lowercase letters.

“lower case letters please,” the header on his Facebook profile reads for reasons unknown.

Skelton, an assistant professor of queer studies in education at the University of Regina, says on his website that he is the father of a “non-binary ten year old,” whom he says is a frequent research partner.

One of the duo’s projects — as detailed on Skelton’s personal website — centers around “how do 2SLGBTQ children and children from 2SLGBTQ families envision educational spaces that meet their needs,” he wrote, using Canada’s preferred term for LGBTQ.

Higher education really deserves to fail as an industry. It has gone so far out of the mainstream that it is no longer recognizable.

Perhaps something new and better would be born from its ashes.

We certainly shouldn’t continue to fund whatever this professor is talking about. Maybe just medical schools, law schools, and high tech for a while. And trade schools. We actually need more people to go to those.
