The Get More Smarter Podcast - A Weekly Show About Colorado Politics We May Have Reached Rock Bottoms (feat. Dr. Francisco Rodriguez)
This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, a Colorado Republican State Representative who will not be the state’s next governor has re-earned his podcast nickname as he proves, once again, that when it comes to the massive amount of lies he will tell IN CHURCH, FROM THE PULPIT, there truly is no Bottoms. Then, the Trump administration is having a really, really bad year, and it’s only February; from failing, again, to prosecute their political opponents to losing a major tariff vote on the floor of the House thanks to Colorado’s own Bread Sandwich, it’s getting harder to believe this group of stupid idiots might be able to steal an election. Then the EPA isn’t protecting shit; Pam Bondi has a meltdown and gets absolutely cooked by one of Colorado’s best; the State Legislature is losing another Democratic Champion; and a Colorado House Republican finally tells the truth about who’s to blame for our massive, continuing state budget cuts.
But first, remember how, just a month ago, the United States unilaterally kidnapped the leader of a sovereign nation with neither congressional nor allied authorization? No? Well Dr. Francisco Rodriguez of the University of Denver sure does! Colorado’s top expert on Venezuelan history and politics joins us to talk about what’s happened since, and what happens next.
