WRITE YOUR GOVERNOR!

Response to Yesterday’s Post:
A friend of mine asked me what we can do as individuals. Here are four things I know every citizen of this state can do right now. Write Governor Polis (NOT EMAIL, AN ACTUAL LETTER) and let him know they should be preparing for any invasion by the masked secret police of the Federal Government, as other blue-state governors are preparing as we speak. Ask Governor Polis to check in with other governors who have created tabletop exercise scenarios, as Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro said when he was on Stephen Colbert. Ask him to be actively prepared to call in the State branch of the National Guard to help protect the people in a peaceful way, as Minnesota Governor Tim Walz did. Or walk the streets and take a tour WITH CAMERAS to show how quiet they were, as Illinois Governor J B Pritzker did when they invaded Chicago. And there’s always Gavin Newsome of California to give him advice on how to sue the Federal government, among other things. https://calmatters.org/politics/2026/01/democrats-immigration-legislation/

Encourage Governor Polis to just network and ask for help. If he has, great! We know we have a governor who cares.
