So Polis has an issue with the 1st Amendment...

[BPTactical]

Seems this clown only likes news when it's served through his propaganda machine.

The press office for Gov. Jared Polis asked two Colorado newspapers, the Kiowa County Press in Eads and The Chronicle-News in Trinidad, to remove a story about Polis' new Office of Future of Work.

Asked why, the governor's press office told Colorado Politics that it wasn't because of the story, but because of the news organization behind it.




?When we looked into this group and discovered that it was not an objective wire service, but instead a branded website funded by the Koch Brothers? political organization, we were alarmed that it was being reprinted by reputable news outlets in the state," according to the statement provided to Colorado Politics by the governor's press office, which the office asked to be attributed to a spokesperson.

"The people of Colorado deserve quality, objective news they can trust so they can make their own informed decisions," the statement said. "Newspapers can publish whatever they want to, anywhere they want, at their own prerogative, but the public is served best when articles by partisan organizations are placed in the opinion section or branded accordingly.?

Of course he does. He's a Democrat, the only thing Democrats hate more than democracy is the US Constitution.

If they were only so concerned about the fake news about Trump. As long as it goes through their accomplices in the media, it's good.

I hear Democrats talk a lot about how the 2nd is outdated because it was ratified in 1791. They clearly feel the same way about the 1st, 4th, 5th, 6th, and 10th.

I just refer to Caetano v Massachusetts:

“The Court has held that “the Second Amendment extends, prima facie, to all instruments that constitute bearable arms, even those that were not in existence at the time of the founding,” District of Columbia v. Heller, 554 U. S. 570, 582 (2008), and that this “ Second Amendment right is fully applicable to the States,” McDonald v. Chicago, 561 U. S. 742, 750 (2010). "

Caetano v Massachusetts, 2016.

"Asked why, the governor's press office told Colorado Politics that it wasn't because of the story, but because of the news organization behind it."

So the problem isn't with the content of the story which they don't seem to dispute, the problem is the story originated from a source that essentially isn't on the governors list of approved media outlets. That's a problem, as noted Polis seems to have missed the meaning of the 1st amendment.

Control the information (including sources thereof), control the people.
Control transportation, control the people.
Control finances/income, control the people.
All these are fruitless without the last, most important one: Control the means to resist, control the people.

I just saw this too. I was actually shocked.

The lefties are getting more and more bold and open with their commie tendencies. They're not even trying to hide it anymore. Scary stuff.

Obama tried to post a sensor in every "news outlet" in the US. Someone to monitor and sensor any news that he didn't like or agree with.

The lefties are getting more and more bold and open with their commie tendencies. They're not even trying to hide it anymore. Scary stuff.

And the number of rank and file Democrats that are strongly defending him on this one is crazy.


You know if Polis was a Republican they'd already have the recall petitions outside King Soopers by now.

This is true.

Could be that "rank and file" is shrinking or the herd instinct taking effect. Either way it looks grim.

Polls has an issue with personal freedom and liberty.

Govt should never be a task master but Polis thinks you need to be told to do it his way.

Couldn't have said it better.

If I was the paper editor I would continue to publish. He didn't attack the information just who wrote it. Cuts both ways Polis.

Both papers declined to pull the articles.

The number of time Polis has been told "no", "your are wrong" or "get bent" can probably be counted on one hand. His silver spoon grooming for higher office has always been shielded behind the protective armor of "bigotry" for anyone who dare challenge him.
