Kyle Clark Calls Out Colorado Politicians After D.C. Mob
After an angry mob stormed the Capitol building on January 6, the day of President-elect Joe Biden s congressional certification hearing, many across the U.S. sat and watched from afar, horrified.
There were some Colorado politicians that tweeted from their congressional seats, assuring the public of their safety. However, 9News anchor Kyle Clark wants his listeners to know that some of them are to blame.
In a broadcast on January 6, Clark named names: Jenna Ellis, legal advisor to the president; Michelle Malkin and Joseph Oltmann, who are being sued by Denver-based Dominion Voting Systems; Randy Corcoran, KNUS radio host; Ken Buck, Colorado republican party chairman; Doug Lamborn, Colorado republican congressman; and Lauren Boebert, Colorado republican congresswoman, were all named.

President Trump’s Republican allies in Congress are objecting to several states’ electoral votes, saying fraud and irregularities marred the November election. But there is no evidence of such problems on a scale large enough to reverse Democratic President-elect Joe Biden’s win.
Here are some of the claims about alleged irregularities in five key states and election officials’ responses. Mr. Trump’s campaign and its allies have lost dozens of lawsuits seeking to challenge the results.
Arizona
Mr. Trump and his supporters have alleged widespread irregularities in Arizona’s election. Mr. Biden won the battleground state by 10,457 votes, according to the certified result. Audits in Arizona’s four most populous counties found no evidence of widespread discrepancies, according to reports released by the Arizona secretary of state’s office.
Though Colorado wouldnât confirm its first case of COVID-19 until March 5, 2020, public health officials later concluded that it had been circulating in the state as early as January â fittingly enough, for a year that would come to be defined, above all else, by the spread of the novel coronavirus.
But a deadly pandemic was far from the only thing that left its mark on a tumultuous year in Colorado politics. Historic protests and waves of civil unrest gripped Denver and other cities. Record-breaking wildfires choked the skies with haze. Democrats prevailed in a pivotal presidential race, while Republicans launched baseless, conspiracy-laden attacks on the integrity of the election. Meanwhile â often out of the spotlight â lawmakers and regulators made critical decisions that shaped the lives of millions of Coloradans.
It was the year superlatives fell short.
From a jam-packed January that opened in the midst of a presidential primary and plunged head-long into only the third impeachment trial in the nation s history, to February and its leap day, which couldn t explain why it felt like the month that would never end, until March arrived and time slowed to a glacial crawl â from the start, 2020 was all about jerking from one extreme to the next. Weâve had a pandemic with the flu in 1918; weâve had economic strife with the Great Recession and the Great Depression; weâve had civil unrest in the late 60s, early 70s. But we havenât had them all at the same time,â said Denver Police Chief Paul Pazen last summer, before the divisive election that also played out against that backdrop.
