A Denver City councilwoman threatened legal action against Mayor Michael Hancock’s administration in a letter late Friday afternoon, saying she has been the subject of a smear campaign. “I am requesting that you direct your officials to cease taking actions that defame Councilwoman Sawyer and constitute retaliation against her for speaking out on matters of public concern,” the letter from Amanda Sawyer’s attorney says. The attorney, Patricia Bangert, goes on to describe those actions as “inappropriate and illegal” and says if they continue “appropriate legal action will be initiated.” Since she was elected in June 2019, Sawyer said, her frustrations have grown with several city departments.

    There is a lot to dislike about Kentucky Sen. Mitch McConnell, who has consistently held a high disapproval rating in his home state. However, most people would agree with two things McConnell has said.

  • Trump Trial Day 2: Gag Order And A Pecker
    Crooks and Liars, Tuesday - 04/23/2024 - 06:16 PM

    Day 2 of the Donald Trump Election Interference Criminal Trial was a rocky one - for Donald Trump and his lawyers. It started off with the long awaited Gag Order Hearing where Trump's lawyer, Todd Blanche, got the legal equivalent of a tongue lashing that surely left bruises. A bit of the highlights, from both sides: Out of the gate. "Defendant has violated this order repeatedly and hasn't stopped," prosecutor says, adding that Trump even did it on Monday in the halls of the courtroom. — Kaelan Deese (@KaelanDC) April 23, 2024 Lots of back and forth about posts and statements, but the prosecutors make it clear that they have Trump's number.
