Let me put it plainly: this CBS News article just confirmed what every half-conscious taxpayer in this state already suspected: our Democrat overlords have blown our state budget into a flaming billion-dollar crater, and now they’re calling a special session to scrape together what’s left. The headline might as well read: “We screwed up for seven years, now let’s blame Trump and raid your savings.”
The Bullet Point Brief
- A “projected” $1 billion shortfall has Colorado Democrats scrambling into a special legislative session like cockroaches at the kitchen light.
- Governor Jared Polis claims he’s trying to be fiscally responsible, after supervising years of ballooning budgets and reckless spending.
- Legislators will look at cutting tax credits and delaying payments, AKA rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic.
- They’re already rehearsing their lines to blame Trump and national economic woes instead of owning their dumpster fire of mismanagement.
- TABOR’s about to get mugged. Again. Bring pepper spray, or better yet, lawsuits.
My Bottom Line
Senator Kirkmeyer hit the nail hard enough to drive it clean through the floor joist – this mess didn’t start with HR-1 or Trump or even bad luck. It started with years of financial gluttony by Progressive pinheads who’ve controlled everything but God’s weather since 2018. Colorado’s budget situation is the result of their policies, their spending forecasts based on unicorn math, and their arrogance thinking that consequences are someone else’s problem. Spoiler alert: they’re not.
And now they want a special session? That’s political code for: hide your checkbook and kiss TABOR goodbye unless we stand firm. Don’t fall for their bait-and-blame gig. Just because they keep screaming Trump doesn’t mean he set fire to their drunk-on-power spending spree. These folks lit the match and threw it straight into our fiscal fuel tank, and now they’re shocked it exploded?
TABOR isn’t just some policy hiccup – they hate it because it limits their ability to pickpocket you without asking first. So get ready for emotional manipulations about schools and healthcare, and it’s for the children, while they tiptoe past all the pet projects no one asked for. We need real fiscal accountability, not more backroom budget blunders wrapped in progressive perfume.
The bottom line? Quit letting these people piss on your leg while telling you it’s economic rain caused by the GOP. This budget disaster is 100% homemade by Colorado Democrats, and now they think you should foot the bill.
