Spending less time on world news since US voters re-elected a rapist/convicted felon, who tried to end democracy, but who Americans decided to give a mulligan, cuz democracy shlemocracy right? Occasionally I’ll come across something that I feel compelled to share, but… …these days… I've stopped my dreaming …these days I sit on corner stones & count the time in quarter tones to ten

yahoo news | Good Riddance to Jared Polis, America's Worst Elected Democrat
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
The article is an incendiary opinion piece denouncing Colorado Governor Jared Polis as “America’s worst elected Democrat.” The author argues that Polis betrayed democratic principles by granting clemency to election‑official Tina Peters, a move the writer says aligned him with former President Trump and the Silicon‑Valley elite, particularly Peter Thiel. Citing a series of recent vetoes—including bills on ambulance billing, ride‑share safety, rent‑price algorithms, worker protections, and open‑records transparency—the author claims Polis consistently favored corporate interests over Colorado voters, spent personal wealth to secure office, and has become a right‑leaning, oligarchic puppet with no genuine Democratic credentials. Personal resentment is also introduced, noting a past protest involving the writer’s sister. Overall, the piece portrays Polis as a self‑serving, anti‑democratic figure destined for political failure.

qwant news | Good Riddance to Jared Polis, America’s Worst Elected Democrat
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
The article is a vehement opinion piece denouncing Colorado Governor Jared Polis as “America’s worst elected Democrat.” The author argues that Polis betrayed democratic principles by granting clemency to election‑official Tina Peters, timing the decision to avoid legislative backlash, and repeatedly vetoing bipartisan bills that would have protected consumers, workers, and transparency. Citing personal grievance, the writer claims Polis is a pawn of Silicon Valley billionaire Peter Thiel, accusing him of using his wealth to buy political power, favoring corporate interests (including Uber, Lyft, and rent‑price algorithms), and abandoning Colorado’s voters in favor of Trump‑aligned agendas. The piece portrays Polis’s actions as evidence of a right‑ward shift that serves oligarchic donors rather than the public, forecasting that any future presidential bid would be a disastrous extension of this behavior.
