Adding on from a conversation with the Monument PD officer who referenced a bulletin the agency received as well as conversation with El Paso County deputies;
Callahan and El Paso County Sheriff's both doing shift change at 1600, going from a whopping 4 law enforcement officers in Northeast El Paso County to 0 for about a half an hour. Based on my observation Elbert County to shift change around then also.
Northeast Colorado Springs and Monument getting robberies and burglaries daily from both tweakers and Latin gangs impersonating food delivery, FedEx, and Amazon drivers. This particular officer lives in Elizabeth off County Road 13 and he's had Latino suspected gang members knocking on his door and then going around and checking the other doors and looking through the windows according to his security cameras.
All of El Paso County having vehicles broken into daily and the deputy recommended if we have a CCW and we leave our vehicle carry our gun don't leave it in the vehicle.
A cute little crime spree in southern Colorado Springs, Fountain, Security Widefield areas, where some group specifically went after law enforcement and military identified vehicles and estimates are at least 50 sets of plate carriers and helmets were stolen in a one week period.
Southeast El Paso County had incidents where Latino men were on dirt roads blocking them as if there's road hazard, sometimes putting out a cone or two, and then when people stopped they were ambushed from the right and left side and robbed. Advice given was if it does not look like official road crew with large barriers and large reflective signs to either push through people saying "stop there's a hazard" or if you could identify it early to stop turn around and go the other way, don't even take the risk of an ambush.
Overall theory from officer was that the cities have so much competition for crime territory that these people are coming out to the country to explore uncontested targets of opportunity.
We are burning our strategic reserves to manage paper markets while China quietly builds a 900-million-barrel energy fortress. The exact math shows the US hits a critical 150-million-barrel military floor in just 41 days at maximum draw. By artificially suppressing wartime energy prices, the administration effectively handed a generational strategic advantage to our primary global rival. Here is the data-driven teardown of how short-term market optics just sold our physical energy future.👇https://triggledger.substack.com/p/shorting-america-how-trump-sold-our?utm_source=share&utm_medium=android&r=8gc1qf
📝 🇺🇸 🌹 DSA is not simply a group of “democratic socialists.”
It operates as an umbrella for electoral socialists, ecosocialists, Marxists, Marxist-Leninists, Trotskyists, anarchist, abolitionists and revolutionary anti-imperialists.
These factions disagree over tactics, but they remain under one organization because they share the same goal: build political power, recruit younger voters and get their own members elected.
Their strategy relies heavily on social media, college campuses and youth organizing because they understand that long-term political influence begins by shaping voters early.
The caucuses fight over reform versus revolution, centralized discipline versus bottom-up organizing and whether to remain inside the Democratic Party or eventually break from it.
But many of them do not align with mainstream Democrats at all.
They use the Democratic ballot line because it provides ballot access, campaign infrastructure, media attention and the fastest ...
