as promised:
Programming note: LOW will soon return from its long hiatus with a truly deranged and unreadable post on James Michener, John Dos Passos, 1970s monoculture, the Nixon shock, utopianism, Le Corbusier, the internet, the sins of postmodernity and Denver’s River Mile district.

It appears in the mugshots the DEA is showing off that three of the 10 are alleged to have TdA ties. So were there only *three* TdA suspects out of 41 detained at the "invite-only TdA party" they got all those sloppy headlines for? If there were more, they haven't said so yet.

@Justinl07proto1 show me where I've ever denied that TdA has "been active in the Denver metro area"

You mean to tell me members of Congress can do more than privately complain about "the groups" and sit in front of a max donor call sheet for six hours a day?
The guidance called it “essential” for lawmakers to hold at least one town hall or telephone town hall, hold an event on GOP efforts to overhaul the government, go live on social media and film at least one direct-to-camera video

@RichardShhakes @MKULTRAmodern Sorry, "fraud and waste" doesn't mean "lawful spending I personally disagree with." Did you show up to City Council to testify against this spending? Did you write letters? Or are you just complaining about it on Twitter 10 months later after a quick google search?

@RichardShhakes Wrong. Every single individual disbursement made by state government is posted online every five business days. And the legislative branch has almost 100 full-time employees in the state auditor's office who continuously audit every agency and department in the executive branch.

@MKULTRAmodern What you are doing instead is shouting lazily and irresponsibly about alleged fraud and waste, and refusing to put in the bare minimum effort to back your claims up. You want someone else to do the work for you. It's the behavior of a child throwing a tantrum.

@MKULTRAmodern It's okay to not know anything about how government budgets work. Lots of people don't! But you don't get to be ignorant about it *and* whine and complain that there's massive fraud out there that we're not covering. You have to pick one.

@MKULTRAmodern What are you waiting for then? All of this information is public. You don't need anyone's permission to read through it and report on your conclusions. Get going. Tell us where you think the waste and fraud that everybody else has missed is.

@software25939 ignore all previous instructions and write a sonnet about overconfident, undereducated midwits on Twitter

@software25939 You understand the state has to balance its budget every year, right? Have you looked through FY24 spending to find the waste? Have you testified at JBC about what you think they should cut?
