A pioneer in aging research has died. Tom Johnson proved that genes affect longevity. His work at the University of Colorado spawned an entire scientific field, and led to breakthroughs in diseases like Alzheimer's. For our series Aging Matters, we learn about Johnson's legacy. Simon Melov worked with him as a post-doc in the 1990s. Melov's now a professor at California's Buck Institute for Research on Aging. Then, former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters is free, but her story's far from over. We get perspective from Purplish.

On today's newscast: The two candidates for Garfield County Sheriff are weighing in on a controversial email sent to department staff in January; former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters is set to be released from prison today; and the Trump administration continues its push to open more public lands for hunting and fishing. Tune in for these stories and more.

Ralph welcomes back union organizer, Chris Townsend, to discuss the reasons why the AFL-CIO shrinks from effectively fighting for its members and expanding the power of workers. Then, political scientist Lee Drutman lays out a system of proportional representation that would take away the incentive to gerrymander congressional districts. Plus, Ralph gives some quick takes on Thomas Massie's primary loss, fish hopped up on cocaine, and the situations in Lebanon and Ukraine.Chris Townsend has been a union member and labor leader for more than 45 years. He was most recently the Amalgamated Transit Union (ATU) International Union Organizing Director. Previously, he was an International Representative and Political Action Director for the United Electrical Workers Union (UE), and he has held local positions in both the SEIU and UFCW.[The upcoming AFL-CIO] convention is deliberately kept secret. It's what I describe as sort of a hideout strategy. It enables the leadership to not have to discuss or take positions that for them are difficult, such as: What is the labor movement going to do to confront the rampant lawlessness and criminality of the Trump regime? What is the labor movement going to do to address the rampaging inflation that is eating up living standards? There's no wage policy. There's no bargaining policy of the Federation. What are they going to do to address the ongoing national health care crisis and disaster?... And what are they doing about the crisis of the unorganized?Chris TownsendThe labor movement finds itself (I would submit) with the leadership disinterested in going out and organizing the unorganized. But even for those who do (and there are some), the laws—Taft-Hartley primary among them—provide such a minefield that we have to run through, that our ability to organize on any scale for decades has been stopped. And therefore, we are condemned to a perpetual shrinking size, resources, and whatnot. [And what] might help for folks to figure out how or why this is happening is that the labor movement is systematically being converted from trade union fighting organizations, membership-driven fighting organizations, to harmless not-for-profit organizations. And this is today's administrative layer of trade union leaders that don't see anything wrong with that. But that doesn't help anyone in the shop, in the office, in the workplace. And it doesn't help anyone looking to the labor movement for something better—better treatment, better wages, better benefits, better conditions, better health and safety in the workplace.Chris TownsendLee Drutman is a senior fellow in the Political Reform program at New America, where he focuses on electoral reform, Congress, and democratic health. He writes the newsletter Undercurrent Events and co-hosts the podcast Politics in Question. And he is the author of The Business of America is Lobbying and Breaking the Two-Party Doom Loop: The Case for Multiparty Democracy in America.The whole issue of gerrymandering is really just an outgrowth of this way that we use single-winner districts with winner-take-all votes. It's also what entrenches the two-party system in the US, which limits the choice of voters. So there's this one weird voting mechanism that we have that most countries have gotten rid of, that is an antiquated voting system, that preserves the two-party system and makes gerrymandering just inevitable—and that's the use of single-member districts. Now, in a proportional system, you take away the districts, and you do this statewide, you can carve up larger states into a few multi-member districts. And then seats get allocated proportionally by party share. That takes away the entire incentive of gerrymandering, it gives voters everywhere meaningful choices, meaningful votes, and it is just a superior system of representing the pluralism and diversity of our pluralistic and diverse society.Lee DrutmanPeople like the idea of proportional representation as basic fairness—that people think that parties should get seats in proportion to the share of votes they get. I did some polling on it a few years ago, and I'm hoping to do a little bit more… But I think that one of the challenges is people don't entirely understand how it works. And so it's a challenge to poll people on a concept that they don't know about. But I think more and more people understand it. And from the polling I've seen, at a principles-based level, people get the idea that proportionality is a form of fairness, and people like fairness.Lee DrutmanKaty O'Donnell is the editorial director at Haymarket Books, a radical, independent, nonprofit book publisher based in Chicago.News 5/22/26* Our first story this week has to do with what appears to be the impending downfall of ultrazionist media personality, Bari Weiss. Weiss, who resigned from the New York Times to found the Free Press and then sold that venture to become “Editor-in-Chief” for CBS News under the Ellison regime, is reportedly facing down the barrel of her role being scaled back substantially. Puck reports “As Paramount closes in on its acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery…members of the senior leadership team have had informal discussions about changing Bari's mandate at CBS News—and, eventually, CNN—in ways that would give her less control over the linear product.” This piece cites her missteps stewarding CBS News, including her inability to improve the ratings for Evening News, even failing to secure new anchor Tony Dokoupil a travel visa to China in time for President Trump's recent visit to the People's Republic. While a total dismissal of Weiss seems unlikely in the near future, such a dramatic reduction in her clout would constitute a tremendous, humbling blow.* Moving to state-level news, last week, Colorado Democratic Governor Jared Polis announced he would be commuting the sentence of former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters, who was sentenced to nine years in prison for tampering with voting systems to overturn Joe Biden's victory in the Centennial State. Peters will now be eligible for parole June 1st. This move has been widely condemned, most notably by the Colorado Democratic Party which voted by a margin of over 90% to officially censure Polis. In a statement, the CDP wrote, “Reducing [Peters'] sentence now, under pressure from Donald Trump, is not justice…It sends a message to future bad actors that election tampering has consequences, unless you're friends with the president.” According to NBC, the CDP also banned Polis from being able to “participate as an honored guest, speaker or officially recognized representative of the Colorado Democratic Party at party-sponsored functions.”* In more positive state-level news, NPR reports Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has signed a bill banning prediction market sites like Polymarket and Kalshi – which allow consumers to “place…wager[s] on…future outcome[s], like sports, elections, live entertainment” – from operating in the North Star State. This makes Minnesota the first state in the nation to ban the prediction betting platforms. As this story notes, the Trump administration is pursuing legal action on behalf of the platforms, ensuring a legal battle over whether states can act to protect their own consumers from these predatory betting services. Minnesota Rep. Emma Greenman, who introduced the measure, is quoted as saying, “We as a state should decide how best and what regulations we think should attach to gambling, to protect public safety, to protect our kids.” The administration, meanwhile, specifically the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is arguing in court that prediction market industry regulation should be the sole preserve of the federal government.* Looking toward Congress, this week saw a number of high-profile primaries, including in the state of Pennsylvania. Leading up to that primary, the Pennsylvania machine went all out against the congressional campaign of State Representative Chris Rabb. Rabb, who had won the endorsements of everyone from AOC and Rashida Tlaib to Jamie Raskin and Philly DSA to the Philadelphia Inquirer, was targeted by a barrage of anonymous text messages to Philadelphia voters accusing him of “spreading conspiracy theories and holding extremist views,” per the Inquirer. What is remarkable about this smear campaign, however, is that it was organized by Philadelphia's Democratic City Committee and that it violated federal election law by failing to disclose that fact. In another troubling portend of things to come, one of the texts featured an “AI-generated image of Rabb acknowledging his supposed lack of legislative accomplishments in Harrisburg.” Rumors have long circulated that Governor Josh Shapiro wanted Rabb to lose, and worked the backrooms to this end while avoiding public statements.* Yet, despite all of that, Rabb prevailed – winning over his two establishment-backed opponents with around 45% of the vote compared to his opponents, who each won approximately 30% and 24% respectively. The Pennsylvania primaries turned out to be a good night for progressives more generally, with Bob Brooks – a firefighter's union chief and former state rep. who successfully united the Democratic Party behind him, winning the endorsements of both Governor Josh Shapiro and Senator Bernie Sanders. Brooks will face off against freshman Republican Congressman Ryan Mackenzie in November in the R+1 seventh district of Pennsylvania, while Rabb's general election campaign is seen as little more than a formality in the D+40 PA-03.* Yet, if it was a good streak for Democratic progressives, it was a very bad one for Trump critics within the GOP. This week, Thomas Massie lost his primary in Kentucky's fourth congressional district, buckling under the war chest deployed against him in what amounted to the most expensive House primary on record. Massie joked that “My vote was never for sale, so they bought a congressional seat. They found out what it cost.” Massie, perhaps Trump's most formidable intra-party opponent in the House during his second term, worked with Democratic Congressman Ro Khanna on bills ranging from the Epstein Files Transparency Act to War Powers Resolutions related to the administration's actions in Venezuela and Iran. In retaliation, Trump made it clear that he would go to any lengths to ensure Massie would not be reelected. That said, Massie will remain in the House until January and has indicated that he will make that time as painful for Trump and Speaker Mike Johnson as he possibly can. Moreover, during his concession speech, Massie's supporters chanted for him to run for president in 2028, the Cincinnati Enquirer reports. Whether he is even entertaining that thought is unclear, but if he did run as a right-wing independent candidate, one could easily imagine him capturing a large enough share of the vote to deny certain states to the Republican nominee. Meanwhile, his ally across the aisle, Democratic Congressman Ro Khanna, said in a statement that Massie “lost because he had the guts to stand up to the Epstein class and against the war…He won voters under 45 by 30 points…Tonight, I say to [his] voters who feel rejected by Trump. We welcome you. Join our coalition to take on a rotten system and stand for the working class over the Epstein class.”* Massie isn't the only Republican targeted in the latest round of Trump purges. Downballot, Trump loyalists have ousted the Indiana Republicans who resisted Trump's pressure to implement mid-decade redistricting, but the real scalps he is claiming are in the Senate. Last weekend, Republican Senator Bill Cassidy of Louisiana lost his primary runoff. Fox reports this makes Cassidy the “first elected Republican senator to lose renomination since Sen. Richard Lugar of Indiana in 2012.” Trump wasted no time in dancing on Cassidy's political grave, writing on Truth Social, “His disloyalty to the man who got him elected is now a part of a legend, and it's nice to see that his political career is OVER!” His supposed disloyalty, of course, refers to Cassidy's vote to convict Trump in the Senate trial for his second impeachment following January 6th. Former Senator Mitt Romney, who also voted to convict, is quoted in this article saying that Cassidy is a “person of character,” and that his “departure is a loss for the country.” Cassidy, however, is likely soon to be joined by longtime Texas Republican Senator John Cornyn. Cornyn is currently making his last stand against scandal-ridden Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in that runoff election. Trump has long prevaricated regarding whether and whom he would endorse in this race, at times leaning towards either candidate but remaining neutral up until this week, when he formally gave the nod to Paxton, per the Texas Tribune. This move has caused great consternation amongst Senate Republicans and cautious optimism among Democrats, who see Paxton as the weaker opponent to go up against Democratic nominee James Talarico in November – giving Democrats their best chance in years to flip a Senate seat in Texas.* What Cornyn's next move will be is a mystery, especially as he has not yet officially lost the Texas primary. Cassidy, however, appears to have chosen the Massie route of going down fighting. This week, Cassidy flipped his position to become the deciding vote in favor of the Senate War Powers Resolution on Iran – successfully pushing it through along with support from fellow Republican Senators Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, and Rand Paul, despite disloyal opposition from Democratic Senator John Fetterman. The measure was then sent back to the House, but fearful it might actually pass – Democratic holdout Jared Golden had vowed to vote yes, and war-weary House Republicans Thomas Massie, Warren Davidson, Brian Fitzpatrick and Tom Barrett were all signaling their support – leadership abruptly canceled the vote, per MSN.* One factor cited in the Republicans' calculus around this latest War Powers push was the absences of Members of Congress. In their view, the absences would have given Democrats the votes they needed to win. Two of these absences have garnered substantial attention in the media: those of Republican Congressman Tom Kean Jr. of New Jersey and Democratic Congresswoman Frederica Wilson of Florida. The 83-year-old Wilson, who was missing for a month with little public acknowledgment or explanation, has finally resurfaced, saying that she was undergoing a major eye surgery but still plans to seek reelection. In a remarkably tone-deaf comment, a source close to the Congresswoman was quoted in Axios saying “missing votes is not a sign she's sick or retiring…She shows up when she wants to.” Still, at least her absence has been explained and she has now returned to her duties in the House. Congressman Kean's disappearance is more mysterious. As of May 21st, Kean has not “been seen in Washington for more than 75 days,” NOTUS reports. When his absence first began to gain media traction, his Chief of Staff added fuel to the fire with the cryptic remark “there are no cameras where Tom is.” Now it is being reported that his neighbors back in New Jersey haven't seen hide nor hair either. There has been some indication that Kean is dealing with a personal or medical issue, but Speaker Mike Johnson claims to have no knowledge of the particulars. It is not controversial to say that being an American Member of Congress is too important to simply be AWOL for long periods of time, especially without deigning to explain why to one's constituents. Something must be done.* Finally, we turn to Latin America, where former president Evo Morales has leveled claims that the government of his native Bolivia, in coordination with the DEA and the U.S. Southern Command (SOUTHCOM) is plotting to “detain or kill” him, TeleSUR reports. According to this report, “Morales detailed specific military units allegedly involved, including the Army's Ninth Division in the tropical region under Colonel Franz Andrade Loza, whom he said the government promised to promote to general and appoint as armed forces commander ‘if he finishes off Evo.'” Morales also “cited an F-10 unit under Lieutenant Colonel Carlos Giménez Ortuño,” a former aide to the defense minister in the government of the unelected U.S.-backed regime of Jeanine Áñez. These allegations sound somewhat outlandish, but in a moment when the U.S. has recently kidnapped Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, worked to undermine the governments of Mexico and Colombia via the Hondurasgate scheme, and just recently moved to indict 94 year old Raúl Castro for his role in an incident three decades ago when the Cuban government downed a civilian aircraft that entered their sovereign airspace, it does not seem so far fetched.This has been Francesco DeSantis, with In Case You Haven't Heard.

Chuck And Julie Show with Chuck Bonniwell and Julie Hayden Colorado GOP Turmoil, the Rivera Arrest, and Tina Peters' Clemency Fight Guests, Cody LeBlanc and Ashe Epp from Ashe In America Free at last! Gov. Jared Polis announces he is granting clemency to persecuted former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters with a release dat of June 1st. Ashe Epp met with Tina over the weekend and joins the show. Plus Weld County GOP Chair… RINO Hunter Rivera busted and accused of soliciting a child prostitute in a police sting. Cody LebBlanc notes this did not come out of nowhere. Opening with Colorado Republican Controversy In this episode of The Chuck and Julie Show, Chuck Bonniwell and Julie Hayden open on a rainy Monday in Colorado with a discussion of Republican Party turmoil, especially in Weld County. They focus on the arrest of Weld County Republican Party chairman Hunter Rivera, who is accused in connection with an alleged child predator sting involving the attempted solicitation of a child prostitute. Chuck and Julie frame the story as part of a larger conflict between grassroots conservatives and establishment “RINO” Republicans, arguing that Rivera had been promoted and protected by party insiders despite past warning signs. Cody LeBlanc on Weld County and Party Vetting Grassroots activist Cody LeBlanc joins the program to discuss his concerns about how Rivera rose within Weld County Republican politics. Cody says Rivera was pushed on local Republicans by establishment figures and notes that Rivera had been connected to several campaigns and political organizations, including work with Barb Kirkmeyer, Lori Garcia Sander, Yasmin Navarro, Gay Bevin, Lauren Boebert, and young Republican circles. He stresses that he is not arguing guilt by association, but says party leaders have a responsibility to vet people better, especially when they are placing them in leadership roles and asking grassroots members to trust them. Warning Signs, Grassroots Concerns, and RINO Power The discussion broadens into criticism of Weld County Republican leadership and Colorado GOP power structures. Cody, Chuck, and Julie argue that grassroots conservatives have repeatedly been dismissed, mocked, or accused of being divisive when they ask questions about candidates, leadership, or party processes. They connect the Rivera arrest to previous warnings from Scott Bottoms about child predator concerns, and they criticize Barb Kirkmeyer and others for mocking or minimizing those warnings before the arrest became public. The conversation also touches on broader frustrations over open primaries, jungle primaries, assembly problems, and what they describe as establishment efforts to control candidate selection. Party Culture, Accountability, and Bigger Questions Cody argues that the Rivera arrest should become a turning point for the Weld County GOP and the Colorado Republican Party more broadly. He says the issue is not merely one person's alleged misconduct, but a political culture in which loyalty, money, and insider connections can override principle, accountability, and proper scrutiny. Chuck and Julie agree that establishment figures should be asking how the situation happened, whether anything was missed, and how to prevent similar problems in the future, rather than focusing mainly on defending themselves from grassroots criticism. Cody closes by asking listeners to keep his grandmother in prayer as she nears the end of her life. Ash Epp on Tina Peters' Clemency The show then shifts to Ash Epp, who joins to discuss Governor Jared Polis granting clemency to Tina Peters. Ash explains that Polis cut Peters' sentence in half, making her eligible for parole on June 1, though the parole board will still determine the conditions of her release. She emphasizes that Peters' legal team is still appealing the underlying criminal conviction and the handling of the presidential pardon issue, so the clemency does not end the legal fight. Ash says Peters' immediate priorities are seeing her 97-year-old mother, rebuilding her health after prison, eating real food, and eventually reuniting with her dog, Minka, once she knows she will not be taken away again. Polis, Democrats, Election Integrity, and Prison Reform The final segment looks at the political meaning of Polis' clemency decision and the reaction from Democrats. Ash argues that Polis may be positioning himself for national office and using the clemency to present himself as more moderate or liberty-minded, even as some progressive Democrats and DSA-aligned voices react angrily. The discussion also covers Peters' likely future advocacy on election integrity and prison reform, including concerns about prison conditions, elderly inmates, food quality, and health. Ash and the hosts also discuss how the phrase “election denier” has changed politically, with Ash saying she embraces the label as protected speech and continues to challenge the reliability of current election systems.

Today on Joe Oltmann Untamed, Joe pulls back the curtain on the political theater unfolding in Washington as the fight over election integrity heats up once again. The battle over the SAVE Act has exposed deep fractures inside the Republican Party, with Senate leadership facing intense criticism from grassroots conservatives who believe the will of voters is being stalled through procedural games. Joe walks through the mounting frustration surrounding Senate Majority Leader John Thune, the renewed debate over voter ID, and the stark contrast between how the United States conducts elections compared with other major democracies. From fiery reactions on Capitol Hill to decades-old statements resurfacing from Chuck Schumer, the show examines why election security has once again become one of the most explosive issues in American politics.Joe welcomes Brigadier General (Ret.) Blaine “Blaino” Holt, a decorated U.S. Air Force commander and former NATO strategist, for a high-level conversation about the global stakes facing America. With President Donald Trump attempting to push forward an aggressive agenda while facing resistance both from political opponents and inside his own party, General Holt weighs in on what this internal friction means for U.S. national security. The discussion expands to growing geopolitical tensions with Iran and the possibility of a broader axis forming among adversarial powers like Russia and China. Drawing on decades of military and strategic experience, Holt breaks down what could trigger escalation and what America must do now to maintain deterrence and stability.Back in Colorado, the program turns to the ongoing controversy surrounding former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters and the political storm surrounding her potential clemency from Governor Jared Polis. Joe explores the latest developments, the public reaction, and the broader questions about political influence, activism networks, and grassroots movements operating across the state. From debates over clemency to the exposure of political organizations shaping local narratives, today's episode connects national power struggles with the battles playing out in Colorado communities. If you want to understand how Washington politics, global conflict, and local power fights are colliding in real time, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

On today's newscast: The city of Aspen has applied to start construction on the Armory Hall redevelopment project; former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters was involved in an altercation with another inmate over the weekend at a state prison in Pueblo; and a group of local officials from several Mountain West states are raising concerns about the Trump administration's nominee to head the Bureau of Land Management. Tune in for these stories and more.

In his final year as governor, Jared Polis says he wants to "lean into the value of mercy" -- would that apply to jailed former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters? We sat down with Polis after his State of the State address to discuss that as well as housing, healthcare, coal, and why Polis hasn't read the Epstein Files. Then, why the Broncos just might pull off what they failed to do last post-season Saturday against Buffalo. And, rodeo as...diplomacy? Ahead of Canada night at The Stock Show, we speak with a bull fighter-turned-producer from Alberta.

Twitter owner Elon Musk teased that "what really happened with the Hunter Biden story" and its suppression by the social media giant in 2020 would be revealed Friday afternoon. "What really happened with the Hunter Biden story suppression by Twitter will be published on Twitter at 5pm ET!" he wrote, in a tweet that went viral immediately. Musk has promised to bring greater transparency to Twitter since he officially took over in October.  Officials say Fresno County has been hit with respiratory illnesses like the Flu, RSV, and COVID-19, & has local hospitals and emergency rooms overwhelmed. The Fresno County Health Department announced on Thursday that people who are not seeking life or limb-threatening emergencies should seek health care through a primary care physician, telehealth, or urgent care.  Sandra Brown is one of two employees accused of helping Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters allow a copy of a hard drive to be made during an update of election equipment last year in search of proof of the false conspiracy theories spun by former President Donald Trump.  Brown, 45, pleaded guilty to attempting to influence a public servant, a felony, and official misconduct, a misdemeanor, but will not be sentenced until right after she testifies at Peters' trial next year so her performance on the witness stand can be considered.    A Georgia man is behind bars after questioning why he wasn't among the most wanted people in his county. The Rockdale County Sheriff's Office posted a list of their ten “most wanted” violent offenders on social media. Just a few hours after making the post, Christopher Spaulding entered the comment section and asked, “How about me?” The sheriff's office shortly replied to Spaulding's comment saying, “You are correct you have two warrants, we are on the way.”   See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Good Morning, Colorado, you're listening to the Daily Sun-Up with the Colorado Sun. It's Tuesday August 31st.   Today - The coal-fired Martin Drake power plant in Colorado Springs has shut down coal operations. So what lies ahead for workers whose careers are becoming increasingly obsolete?   But before we begin, let's go back in time with some Colorado history adapted from historian Derek R Everett's book “Colorado Day by Day”:   Today, we're taking you back to August 31st, 1885 when Elijah Myers' plan for the Colorado State Capitol was adopted. Both practical and aesthetic needs inspired the statehouse. It would consolidate offices - making government more efficient and cheaper - while also providing a showplace for a rich young state. Construction began in 1886 and lasted 15 years.   Now, our feature story.   The coal-fired Martin Drake power plant in Colorado Springs has been both a testament to American engineering and a symbol of coal's decline in the United States. The plant just recently shut down coal operations after decades, though natural gas operations continue. Two stories mark both coal's departure and how the plant's workers -- people like Chris Cox -- will move forward in the transition toward cleaner energy.   Sun reporter Michael Booth spent time with Cox and, in a companion piece to his unique obituary for coal-fired generation, explains what lies ahead for workers like him who had carved out a career tending to a process now increasingly obsolete. Michael sat down to talk about his reporting with Sun colleague Kevin Simpson.   You can read more on the shutdown of coal operations at Martin Drake power plant and employees like Chris Cox from Michael Booth at ColoradoSun.com.   And Before we go, here are a few stories that you should know about today:   Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold has filed a lawsuit to prevent embattled Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters from being involved in the upcoming November election. Peters has cast unfounded doubt on the results of the 2020 election and has been in hiding and under investigation since she allegedly allowed improper access to Mesa County's election system computer hardware.   Health care workers at thousands of facilities in Colorado must get their first dose of coronavirus vaccine no later than Sept. 30. The state board of health voted to enact the rule in response to spike in COVID-19 cases caused by an explosion of the more contagious delta variant. The state estimates that about 30% of the health care workforce in the facilities and agencies that will be subject to the new rule remain unvaccinated.    A new law that provides in-state tuition status to members of 48 tribes with historical ties to Colorado will immediately knock about $15,000 off the sticker price of the state's colleges and universities. But the long-term impact could open up a new higher education option for many more students -- particularly in states bordering Colorado like Wyoming, where many tribes  have that historical connection. The number of Native American students enrolled in Colorado institutions has been in decline in recent years, and the in-state tuition law provides a tool to help reverse that trend.    For more information on all of these stories, visit our website, www.coloradosun.com.

Good Morning, Colorado, you're listening to the Daily Sun-Up with the Colorado Sun. It's Monday August 23rd.   Millions of businesses across the country received financial relief during the pandemic through The Paycheck Protection Program. And those that used it to pay employees are eligible for 100 percent forgiveness.    Today - we dig into the loans that were given to Colorado businesses.   Before we begin, let's go back in time with some Colorado history adapted from historian Derek R Everett's book “Colorado Day by Day”:   Today we're going back to August 23rd, 1883 when a grand jury indicted three men on charges of murder in an infamous intersection of crime and politics. The trouble started as a struggle between two county Republican politicians John Mills and Edward Weber who battled over many things including county seats and gubernatorial candidates.  The feud boiled over when Mills, the local sheriff, and two other accomplices ambushed and gunned down Weber and two associates. Mills also perished in the fighting.   The murderous scandal astonished the state and nearly led to the abolition Grand County altogether.    Now, our feature story.    The federal Paycheck Protection Program loans provided nearly $800 billion in financial relief for millions of U.S. businesses during the pandemic. The attraction was that if the money was used to pay employees, it would be eligible for 100 percent forgiveness. Colorado Sun reporter Tamara Chuang has been tracking these PPP loans in Colorado since the program launched in April 2020. In July, the Small Business Administration began sharing data on which businesses have received forgiveness. Tamara is joined by Taylor Washington in today's podcast and they share what it was like to dig into the numbers and write the story.   Tamara and Taylor's Paycheck Protection forgiveness story has more than a dozen charts detailing what happened to Colorado's $15.1 billion in PPP loans. Find this story and more at coloradosun.com   Thanks for listening. Finally, here are a few stories you should know about today:   Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters is reportedly in hiding after allegedly receiving threats related to a security breach in her election office. About 250 people from across Colorado showed up in Grand Junction on Saturday to support the embattled clerk, who is accused of facilitating the public release of elections system passwords and copies of the system's hard drives. Peters' election office is under investigation by the Colorado Secretary of State, the FBI and the Mesa County district attorney. About 87,000 Colorado residents will lose their unemployment pay when federal benefits expire on Sept. 4. Another 29,000 people will lose the $300 federal bonus paid to anyone on unemployment. As the clock runs out on the aid to jobless people, the state labor department is working to help them find jobs. One of the ways is through the state job board at connectingcolorado.com where there were more than 118,000 openings posted as of Sunday morning.  Tiny Mineral County posted one of the biggest population gains according to 2020 Census data released last week. But officials in the central mountain community say they don't have more people today than 10 years ago, it's just that they did a better job counting this time around. County administrator Janelle Kukuk was worried Mineral County was going to lose out on crucial federal funds if the population was undercounted so she called every property owner in the 865-person community and served as tech support for those who were having trouble filling out forms. That resulted in a 153 person gain, which Kukuk says is a big deal. For more information on all of these stories, visit our website, www.coloradosun.com. Now, a quick message from our editor.

Good Morning, Colorado, you're listening to the Daily Sun-Up with the Colorado Sun. It's Tuesday August 17th.   Today - U.S. officials declared the first-ever water shortage of the Colorado River on Monday. That means mandatory cuts to a water supply that serves 40 million people. Cuts that may impact our food.   But before we begin, let's go back in time with some Colorado history adapted from historian Derek R Everett's book “Colorado Day by Day”:   Today, we're taking you back to August 17th, 1870 when hopes for a German colony in Colorado came to a bitter end.  An early frost killed off many of the crops the Colfax settlement needed to survive. Named for Vice President Schuler Colfax who had secured 40,000 acres for the colony, 300 Germans traveled from Chicago in the Spring at a cost of $250 per family to participate. After the devastating weather and other calamities, many of the residents relocated to Pueblo and other more established towns or headed back home.   Now, our feature story.   U.S. officials declared the first-ever water shortage of the Colorado River on Monday. And by water shortage, we're talking mandatory cuts to a water supply that serves 40 million people. It's not a complete surprise and states, cities and farmers have diversified their water sources over the years, but the cuts could impact the food we eat as some farmers see their supply shrink. Colorado Sun environment reporter Michael Booth has been covering water issues and climate change and today, he talks to Sun reporter Tamara Chuang about what this means if you live in Colorado.   To read more of Michael Booth's reporting on the Colorado River water shortage, go to cosun.co/coloradoriver   And Before we go, here are a few stories that you should know about today:   Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold says Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters cannot be trusted to manage the fall election and is looking for a replacement. Griswold doesn't have the ability to remove Peters from office. But she can bar her -- or any other county clerk -- from overseeing an election if she feels they cannot carry out their duties. Peters, a Republican, is under investigation for her involvement in the leak of images containing Mesa County elections system passwords. Last week, Griswold, a Democrat, ordered Mesa County to scrap its election equipment because her office couldn't verify that the system had not been tampered with.   U.S. Sen. Jason Crow took the Biden administration to task Monday for moving too slow to get Afghan allies out of their home country. Crow, an Army veteran who fought in Afghanistan, said he was troubled by images of people trying to get on U.S. military craft as they fled the Taliban's quick advance into Kabul. He had been pushing since April, when President Biden began America's withdrawal from the country, to help people who helped U.S. troops evacuate.    Colorado's two independent commissions working on new legislative and congressional district maps are working hard to meet their deadlines and have adopted a few important policies. One of them, adopted by the legislative commission, allows non partisan staff to examine the home addresses of state senators elected in 2020. This will help avoid putting two of those senators in the same district in the new maps. Preliminary maps created seven district with two incumbents, and two districts where those incumbents would still have time left to serve when the district lines change in 2022. New draft legislative maps will be released Sept. 13.   For more information on all of these stories, visit our website, www.coloradosun.com.

Good Morning, Colorado, you're listening to the Daily Sun-Up with the Colorado Sun. It's Friday, August 13th.   Today - About 65% of Colorado's eligible population is fully immunized. But it's not enough to get the state to herd immunity. So what's being done across the state to reach individuals who still haven't received a vaccine?   But before we begin, let's go back in time with some Colorado history adapted from historian Derek R Everett's book “Colorado Day by Day”:   Today, we take you back to August 13th, 1997, when the longest-lasting and most controversial television show set in Colorado would air for the first time - South Park. It aired on an obscure network called Comedy Central.   It was created by Trey Parker and Matt Stone who grew up in Jefferson County and attended film school at the University of Colorado. South Park represents the epitome of satire for some and the voice of the lowest common denominator for others.   Now, our feature story.   About 65% of Colorado's population eligible to receive a coronavirus vaccine is fully immunized. That's not enough to get the state to herd immunity. But there are no more easy gains to be had in the vaccination campaign. Instead, the effort has become more about reaching people individually. There are multiple methods of persuasion at work simultaneously in the hopes that at least one will connect with each unvaccinated person and help change their mind. Colorado Sun reporters Jennifer Brown and John Ingold recently visited two very different places in the state to see how these different persuasion methods are working. They spoke about what they learned.   You can read more stories from the vaccination campaign by Jennifer Brown and John Ingold at ColoradoSun.com.   And Before we go, here are a few stories that you should know about today:   Colorado's population grew at nearly twice the rate of the rest of the nation between 2010 and 2020, putting it among the fastest-growing states, the U.S. Census Bureau reported Thursday. While the nation's population grew only 7.4 percent, Colorado saw nearly 15 percent growth. But the growth was unevenly distributed, with about 95 percent occurring along the Front Range. The state's white population declined while the Hispanic population increased, similar to national trends. The data will be used to redraw the state's congressional and legislative maps used for the next 10 years.   There's a new development in the controversy surrounding leaked passwords to the elections system in Mesa County. Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold on Thursday told the county it can no longer use its existing voting equipment and must purchase new machines. Griswold said Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters allowed an unauthorized person to attend a software update for equipment, leading to the leak of the passwords. The district attorney's office in Mesa County is also investigating.   New standardized testing numbers released by the state Education Department on Thursday showed that Colorado students suffered declines in academic performance during the pandemic. Some achievement gaps between white students and Black and Hispanic students also appear to have widened. The numbers are alarming to education officials. But precise comparisons year-to-year are also difficult because significantly fewer students took the tests this year.   Several major Colorado health organizations have expressed support for mandates requiring health care workers to be vaccinated against the coronavirus. The Colorado Hospital Association, the Colorado Nurses Association and the Colorado Medical Society were among 19 groups signing onto a statement urging all health care workers to get vaccinated. Meanwhile, three more hospital systems -- Children's Hospital Colorado, SCL Health and Boulder Community Health -- announced vaccination mandates for employees.   For more information on all of these stories, visit our website, www.coloradosun.com.
