Last Friday Republican congressional candidate Gabe Evans publicly called on his own state party chair to resign, and for the party’s central committee to vote him out if he refused to step down. GOP calls for Williams to step down boiled over last month when Williams sent a vicious anti-gay missive via the party’s email account attacking anyone who supports Pride month.
This Saturday, just blocks away from Rep. Gabe Evans’ (R-Fort Lupton) newly-opened CD8 campaign “battlestation,” the Colorado Organization for Latina Opportunity and Reproductive Rights (COLOR) held a campaign launch to mobilize Latines in Colorado to turn out to vote and enshrine abortion rights into the state constitution.

VAIL, Colo. — Colorado Gov. Jared Polis on Thursday, following the launch of a state-funded geothermal project here, took on the Trump-aligned Project 2025 plans for rolling back renewables and exploiting public lands with a massive surge in fossil fuels.

All six were run out of office, the last four after just one term each. Will Eli Bremer, who today announced his intention to replace Williams, be the leader to end the nearly decade-long streak of one-and-done chairmen?
When I started investigating the drama surrounding the Woodland Park school board in late spring of last year, the elephant in the small mountain town’s room was difficult to ignore: the Bible college and international ministry organization which had relocated its world headquarters to a massive compound just outside of the scenic hamlet’s downtown. The same Bible college and ministry whose leader, Andrew Wommack, told his followers in 2021 that they “ought to take over” the town – and which had then taken steps to do so. It did not take long for me to realize that Wommack’s organizations were heavily involved in the local feuding over school politics, or that their influence on the town stretched far beyond the classroom.

In the days following the first public call by another party leader for a vote on his removal, Colorado GOP Chair Dave Williams took two actions: he announced the censure of that leader by her fellow executive committee members, and paid himself his next month’s consulting fee in advance.
Transform Colorado, the Truth and Liberty entity dedicated to political spending and voter guides, has organized a series of private, closed-to-the-press events at churches throughout Colorado. Last month, Colorado Times Recorder reporter Logan Davis was asked to leave a Transform Colorado event in Commerce City, but CTR recently obtained an audio recording of Transform Colorado’s July 16 event in Del Norte, where speakers Richard Harris and William Federer encouraged the audience to support their conservative political agenda while indulging in wild conspiracies.
