The transition of presidential power from Donald Trump to Joe Biden in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday will happen thousands of miles away from Colorado, in front of pandemic-thinned crowds and extraordinary security, which puts all sorts of distance between the event and everyday life. While no Coloradans made it into Biden’s top Cabinet spots, there are plenty of things that are expected to shift in the state and affect lives under the Democrat — some sooner than later, especially when it comes to COVID-19 and climate policies. Here’s a quick glance at the top sectors — immigration, education, health care, environment and energy — that Coloradans anticipate will undergo significant changes, one way or another, under the Biden administration. Andy Cross, The Denver PostThousands of people participate in a rally held against the Trump administration’s zero tolerance immigration policy in Civic Center Park on Jun 30, 2018. Immigration Biden plans to introduce comprehensive immigration reform as a means of following through on a campaign promise to provide a legal path to citizenship for all immigrants. More than 10.5 million people were living in the country illegally in 2017, according to the Pew Research Center.

    Political Wire, Thursday - 05/09/2024 - 06:40 AM

  • Trump’s Political Fate Won’t Be Decided by the Courts
    Political Wire, Thursday - 05/09/2024 - 05:50 AM

    “What once resembled a wall of legal obstacles that stood between Donald Trump and his return to the White House is now looking like little more than a series of speed bumps,” Politico reports. “Prosecutors handling cases from Georgia to Florida to Washington, D. C., are discovering that bringing groundbreaking criminal charges against a former president is a lot easier than getting them to trial.” “That’s because Trump has benefited enormously from a pileup of postponements.

    Political Wire, Thursday - 05/09/2024 - 05:44 AM

    “Top Republicans, led by former president Donald Trump, are refusing to commit to accept November’s election results with six months until voters head to the polls, raising concerns that the country could see a repeat of the violent aftermath of Trump’s loss four years ago,” the Washington Post reports. “The question has become something of a litmus test, particularly among the long list of possible running mates for Trump, whose relationship with his first vice president, Mike Pence, ruptured because Pence resisted Trump’s pressure to overturn the 2020 election.”

    Punchbowl News: “Johnson has been hugging former President Donald Trump as closely as possible for the last few months. Johnson held a news conference with Trump at Mar-a-Lago, appeared at the Trump campaign’s donor retreat, devoted the top of his news conference earlier this week to saying the charges against Trump are bogus, and stood with Trump’s allies on the Capitol steps Wednesday to push a bill making something illegal that’s already illegal.
