Reality doesn’t care whether or not you believe. Science, however, needs your support now
H
DAVE PERRY Editor
ere in Colorado, and across the country, we’ve got to get our OCD on to save the planet. Back when I was in the first grade, when we hunted wooly mammoths for fun, a few of us got to sit in on the science class with the big kids. We made thermometers with straws, water glasses and raspberry Kool-Aid. It was the reddest. What seemed like magic at first, as the red liquid climbed up the straw while the water glass was heated, became a satisfying moment of understanding as we learned what chemical and physical actions at play mysteriously pushed the Kool-Aid up the tube. There are no unanswered questions about how all this works. The explanation of what heat is, how it increases the volume of liquids and forces it up a tube is at once fabulously complex and easy enough for a first-grader to grasp. I get it because the explanation is not only easy to prove, but it makes sense when you understand all the moving parts. It was at that young age that I understood why and how the scientific method was so satisfying. Like someone who can’t stop checking to see if the door is locked, you can at once be pleased that something in nature makes sense, and you can keep trying to jiggle the handle, or re-run the experiment, and get the same, exact results. That satisfaction in looking closely, understanding and trying it several times, or reading about how some other fastidious questioner did all that, is what science is all about. Disputing the clarity of things like climate change, vaccination and genetically modified foods is what science tries to battle, and loses. Those who deny climate change or environmental science or light-rail ticket sales believe in what they want, not science. It never ceases to shock me. There’s no doubt that climate change deniers and dismissers of environmental science line up every day to benefit from science they do believe in: air travel, weather prediction, cancer treatment and elevators
that quickly take them to the top of impossibly tall buildings. The science that these deniers don’t believe in, however, would have them make financial and convenience sacrifices to keep all of us from becoming extinct. Extinct, as in, everybody’s dead. I firmly grasp and appreciate the vast volumes of credible research and analysis that show, without a doubt, that humans have heated up the atmosphere, and the consequences will be increasingly dangerous. I don’t, however, believe that what we’ve done will end life on Earth — just life as we know it, and more than likely human life. At least dominant human life. Greedy, naive, corrupt and just plain stupid deniers, however, aren’t the only ones that pick and choose scientific findings like favorite or disagreeable fruits and vegetables at the market. I know many a bleeding-heart liberal who either outright defies the unequivocal science behind human vaccination, or has some lingering doubts based on nothing that makes a lick of sense or has a page of credible backing. Many of these same fans of science look for the non-GMO label in their Aurora-area grocery stores. Despite the fact — yes, fact — that there is no scientific evidence that genetically modified foods are any safer nor any more dangerous for people to eat than non-GMO foods, critics continue to believe what they want, and not what science clearly shows. These sins, however, pale in comparison to a new army of conservative soldiers bent on discrediting science in the same way President Donald Trump tries to discredit liars in the press that keep savagely printing the truth. Leaders in Congress, and now leaders in key White House jobs, aren’t just placid bureaucrats who get pushed around by politics, these people are armed warriors in the fight against science and reason. This week, as the nation battles dozens of wildfires that have destroyed thousands
of homes and tens of thousands of acres of land, including grassland in Texas, Trump and his fellow geniuses dismiss the newest red lights flashing on the world’s dashboard. Trump routinely calls climate change “the greatest con job ever,” and continues to say efforts by the U.S. and other nations are the “Green New Scam.” Worldwide, scientists with indisputable proof who are trying to warn the planet? “Stupid people,” Trump said. At the root of it all? We don’t know what in the hell we’re talking about. In study after study, Americans and students fall further and further down the world list of kids who understand math and science. The crap I hear and read on social media and in person would depress even a thirdgrade science teacher, whose job it is to help us first learn to think and then learn to learn. Right now, we’re far below near-thirdworld countries that at least have sense enough to trust someone who does know. Canada, Australia, almost all of Europe and even China have at least looked up at killer tornadoes this week in southern France and said, “wait, what”? Americans? We’re howling at the moon, led by a man in charge of much of the country’s science who admittedly snorted cocaine off a toilet seat and has a brain worm. Down the road, we must force our kids to take math and science seriously. In the short term, we need to learn to depend on people who really know. So who are you going to trust? The guy who invents and builds the stuff you ride, fly and use to treat your illnesses, or the guy who equates the whole climate science thing to the “Third Reich”? Channel your inner OCD science kid, folks. If you can’t logically explain it, prove it and make it pass the smell test, keep looking.

New Aurora housing project aims to bridge gap in mental health services “THE GOAL IS TO PRIORITIZE INDIVIDUALS WHO CAN BENEFIT FROM STABLE, AFFORDABLE HOUSING COMBINED WITH ACCESS TO SUPPORTIVE SERVICES” BY MCKENNA HARFORD, Sentinel Staff Writer
A
planned supportive housing development for people working to exit homelessness has more than 3,000 people on its waiting list, but with only 43 units, the project is highlighting an
unmet need. The Sanctuary on Potomac, located at 1290 S. Potomac St., will be part of Aurora Mental Health and Recovery’s Potomac Medical Campus, which already has a 24-hour crisis care center. It will have 43 units of referral-based permanent supportive housing that includes services such as mental healthcare, recovery support and housing assistance. The building will have 24-hour staff and security. It is expected to open in November. The project, which is a partnership between Aurora Mental Health and Recovery and the Aurora Housing Authority, is greatly needed in the community, with Martin Petrov, director of the housing authority, saying more than 3,000 people are on the waiting list. “The need is there, but unfortunately these properties have very large operational costs that need additional funding,” Petrov said at an Aug. 18 housing committee meeting. Tod Cavey, a spokesperson for Aurora Mental Health, said in an emailed statement that tenants would be referred through the organizations’ existing behavioral health and supportive service network, and community partners. “The goal is to prioritize individuals who can benefit from stable, affordable housing combined with access to supportive services,” Cavey said. Cavey said having housing on the Potomac Medical Campus will streamline services for people receiving mental healthcare and housing support. He noted the importance of stable housing for recovery. “Instead of treating housing, behavioral health care and crisis services as completely separate systems, the campus
creates a more connected continuum of support,” Cavey said. “For someone experiencing a behavioral health challenge, being able to access care, supportive services and housing resources within the same broader campus can reduce barriers and make it easier to stay connected to care.” The project will receive project-based vouchers for all of the units through federal Section 8 housing funding, according to the Aurora Housing Authority. It has also received a $550,000 housing development grant from the State Housing Board and the Colorado Housing and Finance Authority awarded the project a $1.4 million federal tax credit and a $700,000 state tax credit. The medical campus already has a $44 million crisis care center called the Potomac Pavilion, which offers 24-hour walk-in crisis and detox services, same-day care services, a crisis stabilization unit and substance use intervention.
Aurora Mental Health boosting services with new facility
Aurora Mental Health and Recovery officials say their new facility is designed to provide immediate mental health and substance use services under one roof. “Our mission is to provide top-notch care when you need it most,” Cavey said earlier this year. “No more traditional process where you experience days of waiting to receive your first visit with a therapist. Your worst day can be the day that you receive the help and hope that you need…care is now.” The Potomac Pavilion is intended to simplify access to behavioral health care for individuals and for first responders who encounter people in crisis, according to Cavey. The building includes an ambulance bay to allow law enforcement and emergency medical personnel to bring people experiencing mental health or substance use crises directly to specialized care rather than hospital emergency rooms.
People seeking care can enter through one of two entrances, depending on their needs. The west entrance serves the “Connect to Care” program, open from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. weekdays. Individuals can receive a mental health screening and meet with an initial therapist, who assesses their needs and connects them with an appropriate care plan and ongoing services. The north entrance operates 24 hours a day, every day, providing access to emergency mental health and substance use services. There, individuals can receive immediate screening and stabilization at the “Crisis Walk-In Clinic” or be admitted to the facility’s 16-bed “Crisis Stabilization Unit” or Withdrawal Management program, formerly known as East Metro Detox. Typical stays range from one to five days, officials said. The $44 million project is a collaboration among Aurora, Adams and Arapahoe counties, the State of Colorado and federal funding sources. Aurora Mental Health and Recovery is a nonprofit community mental health organization that provides mental health and addiction services across the region.

Aurora OKs police and fire raises amid controversy over timing of Elijah McClain death City council approved new contracts with its police and fire departments that include small raises despite some pushback over the timing of the vote coinciding with the anniversary of the death of Elijah McClain. On Aug. 24, city council approved two collective bargaining agreements, or union contracts, with the Aurora Fraternal Order of Police Lodge #49 and the Local 1290 International Association of Firefighters. Councilmember Alli Jackson voted against both agreements and Councilmember Alison Coombs voted against the police contract. The contracts, which outline salary and benefits for police and fire employees, include a 3% raise to entry-level police officer and firefighter salaries. The city negotiates contracts with its police and fire unions every two years. Negotiations are not public and are done in executive session. Coombs and Jackson opposed the agreements after public commenters highlighted that Monday was the seventh anniversary of McClain’s death. McClain died Aug. 24, 2019 after paramedics injected him with ketamine during a police stop while he was walking home unarmed and wearing a ski mask. His death was the catalyst for a state-imposed consent decree, which found Aurora’s police and fire departments had a pattern of racial bias and excessive force. Neither council member pointed to specific concerns about the contract, which has been negotiated in executive session. “This was obviously not the day to be voting on collective bargaining (agreements) and raises for the folks that were responsible for the death of Elijah McClain,” Coombs said. “I wish I had noticed the conflict ahead of time.” Jackson said her vote was influenced both by the anniversary of McClain’s death and reservations about increasing pay while she feels public safety departments could do more to address accountability. “I’m at a job where if you don’t perform well, you don’t get a raise and I think that’s pretty standard practice,” she said. While postponing a vote on the contracts was discussed, City Attorney Pete Schulte advised against it, saying postponing could risk a lawsuit from the unions. Later in the meeting, Councilmembers Gianina Horton and Amy Wiles apologized for the timing of the vote, with Horton calling it a “damn f***edup oversight” and Wiles holding back tears. In a social media post following the meeting, Coombs added that she would like to “have a broader conversation about resource allocation” and supports a union for all city employees. “Having the police be one of two departments to get a union contract unfairly shapes our overall budget priorities in ways that many people in our community clearly do not support,” Coombs’ post said. A representative from the Fraternal Order of Police declined to comment. Local 1290 union president Justin Dodds said in a statement sent before the meeting that the contract represents a positive outcome for local firefighters and demonstrates the im-
portance of employee unions. “A tremendous amount of work went into reaching this agreement, and our membership remained engaged throughout the process by asking questions, providing feedback, and ultimately making their voices heard during the ratification vote,” Dodds said. The contract starts an entry-level patrol officer’s salary at $72,100 in 2027 and $74,263 in 2028, compared to $70,000 in 2026. The highest salary goes to police captains, who will receive $182,455 in 2027 and $187,929 in 2028, compared to $177,140 in 2026. Officers start with eight days of general leave and work up to 23 days of leave depending on how long they’ve been with the department. They receive 50 hours of personal leave annually after working for the department for a year, which is up from 28 hours. Police and firefighters get 11 paid holidays. An entry-level firefighter will make $72,870 in 2027 and $75,785 in 2028, compared to $70,748 in 2026. Fire captains will make $151,346 in 2027 and $157,400 in 2028. Firefighters will still get five vacation days and six sick days, but also get one personal day starting in 2027. While Aurora police are getting an increase, other metro areas pay police officers more. Denver’s 2026 entry-level officer salary is $81,046, while Colorado Springs entry-level officers make $73,548. Lakewood uses a different pay breakdown, but an officer entering into field training makes $86,138 and one who has graduated from field-training makes $91,910. Other benefits in Aurora’s contracts include dental and health insurance, stipends for uniforms and equipment, retirement and pensions, survivors’ insurance and funeral coverage. — McKenna Harford, Sentinel Staff Writer
on removing the one-hour limit for public comments. “I would be open to a conversation about the unlimited period being at the end of the meeting instead of the beginning of the meeting, but I do think we need to have some period of time in which individuals can come address the council on the public record without the limitations that are in place,” Coombs said. Coombs would also like to add language about the accessibility options for public speakers and require closed captions on the livestream of the meetings. Other potential amendments would soften the proposed ban on public speakers for going over the time limit and moving when council members
give their reports. All of the proposed changes are expected to be on the Sept. 14 agenda. — McKenna Harford, Sentinel Staff Writer
Aurora voters invited to share views on $264 million bond proposals for election ‘blue book’ The city will be accepting supporting and opposing comments for the proposed city sales-tax increases on Aurora ballots this November. The comments collected by the city will be summarized for voters in an election guide commonly known as the “blue book,” which is mailed out ahead
of the election. The blue book includes official ballot language and describes supporting and opposing positions on measures that are subject to the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights. This November, Aurora voters will decide on three sales tax increases to fund $264 million in transportation, public safety and city facility capital improvement projects. The ballot proposals would amount to a 0.325% sales tax increase, or three cents for every $10 in purchase. Comments on the proposed bonds can be submitted online at EngageAurora.org/BallotComments from Sept. 1 until noon Sept. 18. Only comments ›› See METRO, 6

Aurora City Council delays vote on so-called socioeconomic impact business permits A vote on potential socioeconomic impact permits for businesses like liquor stores and vape shops was delayed until the Sept. 14 city council meeting so that adjustments can be made to the proposal. Councilmember Alison Coombs asked for two agenda items to be delayed during Monday’s city council meeting: the socioeconomic impact permits and changes to the council’s decorum rules. Coombs told the Sentinel she received feedback about changes to both items that she wanted to address before council discussed and voted on them Aug. 24. “I want to make sure we get it right the first time,” Coombs said. Coombs said there are two potential changes for the socioeconomic impact permit, including maybe changing or expanding which convenience stores are exempt from the permit. The proposal currently applies to convenience stores that sell liquor or tobacco while exempting convenience stores that mostly sell groceries and large grocery stores that also sell liquor and tobacco products. The other change would identify an exception process for centers with high vacancy rates if they can meet certain criteria, though the criteria is still being drafted. Similarly, Coombs said she has suggested amendments for the decorum rules after hearing additional feedback

from registered Aurora voters will be included in the summaries and comments filed separately with county clerk’s offices will not be summarized. The public safety bond will ask for a .06% sales tax increase, or 0.6 cents per $10, for $52 million of public safety improvements, including upgrades to several fire stations, police facilities and the 911 call center, as well as building a new fire station. The transportation bond question will ask for voter approval for a 0.13% sales tax increase, or 1.3 cents on every $10, to fund $107.4 million in transportation projects, such as the construction of Gun Club Road, the replace-
ment of the Peoria Street bridge and transportation improvements for the Aurora Reservoir. The facilities bond question proposes a 0.13% sales tax increase to fund nearly $105 million in capital projects, like building a new library and recreation center in northeast Aurora and renovating the Aurora Center for Active Adults. Colorado law requires the city to write and send the blue book, also known as the TABOR Notice, and give voters a chance to submit arguments for and against applicable ballot questions. — McKenna Harford, Sentinel Staff Writer
Federal judge halts portion of new state law targeting Aurora GEO ICE detention center A federal judge on Aug. 20 blocked part of a new Colorado law that deals with inspections at immigration detention centers, at least until a contract between private prison operator The GEO Group and U.S. Immigration and Enforcement expires in October. U.S. District Court Judge Daniel Domenico granted a partial preliminary injunction against House Bill 26-1276 after GEO, which operates the state’s only immigration detention center, sued over its constitutionality. Dome-
nico’s order voids a section of the law that allows health departments to conduct unannounced inspections at least four times per year and imposes hefty fines for refusal. That section unfairly targets a federal contractor and goes beyond holding GEO to the same standards as other prisons and detention facilities in the state, Domenico wrote. “The Defendants do not dispute that, by focusing on immigration-related facilities, HB-1276 is limited to facilities that by their nature are carrying out federal policies, or that in fact it only applies to GEO’s Aurora facility and nowhere else in the state,” Domenico wrote. “Indeed, state law prohibits state facilities from assisting in immigration-related detention. The bill therefore facially singles out federal activity for state regulation. That is typically enough for preemption. In a hearing last month, lawyers for the state argued that Colorado has an interest in regulating the conditions of people detained within its borders. But that does not outweigh GEO’s interest in its own constitutional protections, Domenico wrote. Domenico’s order keeps intact sections of the law that clarify county inspection authority and allow the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment to create new staffing and record keeping requirements for the facility. He wrote that because CDPHE hasn’t started the lengthy rulemaking process for those new requirements, GEO is not at risk of imminent harm from those provisions and a preliminary injunction is not necessary. But if the state begins enforcing that section, the analysis might change, he wrote. The preliminary injunction will expire with GEO’s current contract on Oct. 15. “The provisions of any new contract that GEO (or another operator) obtains from the federal government may alter the analysis significantly, or make proceeding further with this case unnecessary at all,” Domenico wrote. GEO is still subject to other state-imposed health and safety regulations. The case is not the only legal dispute between GEO and the state government. Earlier this week, Attorney General Phil Weiser sued the company over its noncompliance with a state public health order about a tuberculosis case in the Aurora facility. State and local public health officials have tried for months to obtain relevant information to complete a statutorily-mandated investigation into the case. While HB-1276 dealt in part with inspections and public health investigations, the state relied on long-standing public health laws about tuberculosis for its case this week. “Today’s ruling granted GEO Group a narrow, temporary injunction against one provision of a new 2026 law—not the broad relief it sought—and leaves Colorado’s existing public health and safety authority intact,” Wesier said in a statement. “Separately, our lawsuit filed yesterday seeks to enforce that existing authority and require GEO to cooperate with the state’s investigation into tuberculosis at the Aurora facility, and we will continue using every available tool to protect the health and safety of Coloradans.” In a statement, Sen. Mike Weissman, an Aurora Democrat who sponsored the legislation, said he is disappointed in the outcome. “But unlike the Trump regime, I do acknowledge and respect the authority of the judicial branch of our federal
government,” he said. “I am glad the GEO corporation’s sweepingly broad request for our law to be invalidated was not granted in full. Regardless of the outcome of this litigation, I will never stop working to make sure that our state laws are protective of Coloradans’ rights consistent with our constitutional framework.” — Sara Wilson, Colorado Newsline
Aurora city council committee votes to oppose fentanyl ballot measure Prop 132 The Aurora City Council may officially oppose a November ballot measure to increase penalties for fentanyl possession and distribution after the council’s government relations committee took a position against the proposition. On Aug. 20, the committee voted 2-1 to pass a resolution opposing Proposition 132, a ballot measure that would set mandatory minimums for certain drug offenses. Councilmember Angela Lawson opposed the resolution. The resolution was sponsored by council members Rob Andrews and Gianina Horton, and supported by council members Alli Jackson and Amy Wiles. Horton said the resolution doesn’t tell anyone how to vote on the measure, but it raises concerns about the measure’s potential consequences, including raising costs for the judicial system, potentially increasing overdose deaths and removing judicial sentencing discretion. The measure proposes making possessing any amount of fentanyl a felony and sets a mandatory sentence of eight to 32 years for distributing fentanyl. Currently, possessing up to four grams of fentanyl is a misdemeanor. It also partially repeals good Samaritan laws, by removing legal protections for distributors who call emergency services for an overdose. “What’s highlighted in this resolution is the strain that (mandatory minimums) would put on the criminal justice system across the board, from officers to the courts,” Horton said. “It essentially treats a teenager who shares a single pill the same as a major drug trafficker.” Both Jackson and Wiles added that they were concerned that a consequence of the proposition would be fewer resources for prevention and diversion programs. The Colorado Criminal Justice Reform Coalition reports that Proposition 132 could result in a 41% increase in overdose deaths and estimates 900 more people per year would go to prison, costing about $433 million over five years. Colorado saw an increase in overdose deaths in 2025, with more than 1,800 people dying from overdoses. The proposition was put on the state ballot by Advance Colorado, a right-wing political group. In an interview with 9News, Douglas County District Attorney George Brauchler, who is a campaign chair for Advance Colorado, said the goal of the measure is to hold people accountable. “If when somebody gives fentanyl in whatever form they give it to them, and it’s the proximate cause of their death, then they face mandatory prison, 8 to 32 years in the Department of Corrections,” Brauchler said. “That’s not true ›› See METRO, 7

right now.” The resolution states that city council “believes there should not be an either-or approach, and that Colorado can and should pursue policies that are both compassionate and accountable by aggressively targeting major drug traffickers while preserving judicial discretion and expanding access to effective treatment and recovery services.” Lawson said she opposes the resolution and supports Proposition 132 because she believes stricter penalties are warranted when it comes to fentanyl possession and distribution. “I believe there are times when the state needs clear consequences for serious offenses and given the danger of fentanyl and what it has done to our communities, I believe this is one of those situations,” Lawson said. “When we’re talking about different levels of culpability, I believe this measure does recognize different levels of conduct.” The proposition outlines different penalties for possession and distribution, as well as increasing penalties depending on the amount involved. It also allows some low-level users to get court-mandated treatment and reduce their charge to a misdemeanor. Responding to the potential costs of increasing incarceration and adjudication, Lawson said fentanyl use has costs for communities and the healthcare system. With the approval of the government relations committee, the resolution will go to the full city council for discussion and a vote. — McKenna Harford, Sentinel Staff Writer BEYOND AURORA
Colorado investigates potential deepfake law violation in election video The Colorado secretary of state’s office will investigate whether a video from a libertarian think tank generated with artificial intelligence violates a state law against undisclosed deepfake videos of candidates. Sen. Cathy Kipp, a Fort Collins Democrat, filed a complaint with the office on Aug. 5 against the Independence Institute, as first reported by CBS Colorado. She alleges that a video posted to multiple Independence Institute social media accounts violates a 2024 law that requires disclosure on deepfake videos of candidates within 90 days of a general election. A deepfake is a realistic-looking photo or video created with AI that makes it seem like a person is saying or doing things they never did. The Independence Institute is a leading opponent of Proposition NN, a tax-related measure placed on this November’s ballot by Democratic law-
makers. In the 45-second video, Kipp is portrayed as a grocery store clerk refusing to give a customer their change, saying in a harsh tone that management decided to keep all change in order to fund education. A narrated voice then says, “Proposition NN wants to keep your tax refund forever. How is that fair?” as the same words show up in large font size. There is a small disclosure visible for about three seconds that reads “AI generated content because who gets a human cashier these days?” Kipp sponsored the bill that referred Proposition NN to the ballot. If approved by voters, the measure would let the state keep more tax revenue than currently allowed under the Taxpayer’s Bill of Rights and then redirect the funding to public education. TABOR is a constitutional amendment that, among other things, requires the state to return tax money that exceeds an annual limit. In the complaint, Kipp wrote that there are no disclosures on the video as required by law. The law requires disclosure in a text around the same size as any other text in the content, as well as information about the AI tool used in the video or photo’s metadata. That disclosure must be “This (image/ audio/video/multimedia) has been edited and depicts speech or conduct that falsely appears to be authentic or truthful.” The law includes a carve-out for satire. It is the first complaint “filed within the statutory timeframe required for consideration,” according to Jack Todd, a spokesperson for the secretary of state’s office. Representatives from the Independence Institute did not immediately respond to a request for comment. The complaint comes amid an increase in AI-generated campaign content, including event flyers, photo posts and deepfake videos. Colorado is one of 31 states that regulate deepfakes in election messaging, according to the National Conference of State Legislators. Kipp, who is running for reelection, filed the complaint exactly 90 days before the November election. As of the afternoon of Aug. 24, the video was still live on the Independence Institute’s public social media pages. “The bottom line is simple: it is disturbing and wrong to use a deepfake, AI-generated video of someone without their consent,” Kipp said in a statement. “We should not allow the rampant misuse of AI and the spread of false information to become normalized in our elections. While this millionaire-backed group uses bad-faith tactics, I’m focused on what matters: funding our schools and making sure every Colorado kid has access to a quality eduction.” The Secretary of State’s office decided to investigate the allegations on Aug. 19 and has a deadline of Sept. 18. — Sara Wilson, Colorado Newsline

AURORA MOVES FORWARD WITH LIKELY DATA CENTER RESTRICTIONS Proposed limits on proximity to residential areas and water-cooling most likely BY MCKENNA HARFORD, Sentinel Staff Writer
A
urora lawmakers moved forward some proposed data center regulations and plan to bring forward even more, including a residential buffer requirement. At Monday’s study session, city lawmakers unanimously supported advancing two regulations, which address data center water usage and zoning, to future council meetings for a vote. One proposed regulation would ban evaporative cooling, which is a type of cooling system data centers use that can be water-intensive, in multifamily, industrial and commercial buildings. The other would prevent data centers from being built in mixed-use office-institutional zoned areas, which can be located next to or include residential units. The evaporative cooling measure is expected to be on the Sept. 14 agenda, while the zoning change will first go to the planning and zoning commission before coming to city council. In addition to the two regulations council supported, they also discussed other potential regulations such as residential buffers and noise reduction, as well as the possibility of changing the definition of a data center in city code to acknowledge different size and scale data centers. City officials approved a resolution on Aug. 10 directing the city manager to create new data center regulations, including a prohibition on evaporative cooling and a requirement for setbacks and landscape buffers for data centers in certain areas. The council ultimately, narrowly opposed a similar proposal that included a moratorium on new data centers while the code is adjusted. Public commenters at the meeting were overwhelmingly in support of the moratorium. The approved resolution left the door open for other regulations, as recommended by the city manager. The city manager has 35 days from the approval to bring back recommended changes. The council was divided over buffers, noise and definitions. Councilmember Curtis Gardner criticized the staff presentation for suggesting strict regulations, such as showing a residential buffer ranging from one-quarter mile to a mile. Gardner said one-quarter mile is a significantly larger buffer than “the standard that’s being put in place around most cities in the

country.” The staff presentation also referenced 10 cities, such as Aurora, Illinois and Fort Worth, Texas, that have buffers ranging from 100 feet to 2,640 feet. “To me when you put up ‘What option does council want?’ (and the options are) a quarter-mile, half-mile or a mile and then ‘other’ at the bottom, there is a minimum threshold being set,” Gardner said. Councilmembers Françoise Bergan and Stephanie Hancock also wanted to see less of a residential buffer. City staff responded that the goal of the conversation was to get council’s feedback around what other regulations should look like, noting the suggestions were not set in stone. “This is just to show you all when you start getting up to those larger numbers, you start taking out pretty significant swaths of land from possible development for data centers,” City Manager Jason Batchelor said. “And whether you want that or don’t want that, we’re just trying to show the impacts of those.” Council disagreed on whether the city’s definition of a data center should be updated to differentiate between facilities of different scales. Councilmembers Rob Andrews, Bergan, Gardner, Hancock and Angela Lawson want to keep the current definition. However, a majority of council supported updating the code, with Mayor Mike Coffman saying he thinks it makes the most sense to have different standards for the different sizes of data centers. Councilmember Amy Wiles noted that data centers can range from the size of a single room to several football fields. “They probably should not be treated the same,” Wiles said. Gardner and Bergan also opposed additional noise regulations if the city already plans to prevent them from locating next to homes.

“We already have such low decibel maximums that if you add a buffer on top of that I don’t see the need for additional noise mitigation, unless you just want to make it more expensive, which I’m guessing is the case,” Gardner said. Batchelor said staff would bring more specific potential regulations around buffers, noise and the code definition to a future study session. City officials say there are five Aurora data centers in the development process and nine already established. Some regulations for data centers are already in place.
Data centers are restricted in location to areas that are zoned industrial, airport districts or mixed-use office-industrial. Data centers can be built in certain mixed-use zoning restrictions under the conditional use process, which has additional requirements for public hearings and city council gets the ultimate decision. Water use for data centers is governed by the city’s large water user guide. For noise pollution, the city’s unified development code restricts the noise level at data centers to the same level as other businesses, with different allowances based on zoning and time.

Aurora Pride moves to wide open spaces filled with art, inclusion and family fun ”PRIDE IS FOR EVERYONE, AND I THINK THAT THAT’S REALLY IMPORTANT TO ME.” BY AURORA SENTINEL STAFF
A
urora Pride is getting more room to celebrate this year, but at the same time, is closing in on its focus on a message of inclusion, dignity, respect, and, above all, Pride, organizers say. The annual festival moves to Winged Melody Park in the Aurora Highlands Aug. 29 for a day designed to bring together the LGBTQ+ community, families, performers and the broader Aurora community. For Carla Ferreira, CEO of the Aurora Highlands community and a chief sponsor of this year’s venue and event, the new location is more than just offering up more space. The Aurora Highlands itself reflects the spirit of Aurora Pride, she said, because the neighborhood, like so much of Aurora, is built around inclusiveness and diversity. Rather than simply providing a backdrop for the festival, the community helps reinforce the Pride event’s emphasis on bringing different people and cultures together as a celebration of respect and inclusion. The expansive and growing art park, known as Winged Melody Park, isn’t just for the growing neighborhood. It’s a regional attraction filled with outdoor art, capitalized with a nostalgic and stunning carousel and the iconic Umi sculpture. “It’s kind of meant to be like a place for everybody that’s in this area to want to come to,” Ferreira said. “The carousel has this positive Americana thing that we just love and love to share.” The park exudes an open-space theme-park vibe, especially when the food trucks line up for walkers and gawkers. The carousel becomes a nexus just like it does at Denver’s Lakeside or Elitch’s parks, drawing riders, watchers and all kinds of admirers. Ferreira says all this makes Winged Melody Park a fitting setting for a celebration whose central message is that everyone belongs. She’s a part of both communities, making the event even more important for her. As a bisexual, Ferreira said she’s lived with the challenges that
Pride events seek to push against and beyond: doubt, shame, trepidation and a search for acceptance. Pride at the Aurora Highlands is a celebration not just for her, but for all members and supporters of the LGBTQ+ community, in that anyone doubting themselves and their potential can look to her as an example of a bi-woman becoming the CEO of a major residential development. “I want them to feel seen and heard, and I want them to have an event that they feel like is just for them, but also in a way that allows everyone else to come in, too,” she said. “It’s not an event where you’re like, if you’re not part of LGBTQ plus, you’re wondering like, ‘do I still get to go to Pride?’ Pride is for everyone, and I think that that’s really important to me.” And Aurora Pride planners and producers say they’ve got a bonanza event planned for this year. This year, the emphasis of inclusion will extend through a partnership with Latino Pride, adding another cultural dimension to the festival. The result is an event that aims to be celebratory without losing sight of its community and family focus, organizers say. And there will be plenty for families to do. Festivalgoers can take free rides on the carousel, adding a classic amusement-park touch to a day otherwise filled with music, dancing and Pride performances. The park also has a playground, so younger visitors can have their own space to play while parents and other festivalgoers take in the entertainment. Family friendliness is an important part of the festival’s identity. Pride celebrations can sometimes have a reputation for becoming rowdy, but Aurora Pride takes a different approach. The rule of thumb, organizers say, is: Keep it PG-13. That means the celebration can remain lively, colorful and unmistakably Pride while still creating an environment where families feel comfortable attending together, organizers said.
The entertainment lineup reflects the range of cultures and performers expected at the festival. Hosts and DJs include Evelyn Evermoore, Dustin Schlong, Vic Moral, DJ Unity Adam, DJ Cxrdinalis and DJ Frankie. Drag performers include Cosmic Allure, Cousin T, Heavenly Powers, House of Infiniti, Mirage de la Amour, Miss 2026 Latino Pride Jaxx Stray, Mr. Latino Pride 2026 Seth Dean, Red and Weird Alnite. Dance performances will feature Ballet Folklorico Sangre de Mexico, Dance en Masse and Grupo Huitzilopochtli. The schedule begins at 11 a.m. with a DJ set by Frankie. Grupo Huitzilopochtli will follow with a dance performance, along with additional DJ sets and drag performances throughout the afternoon. Among the scheduled highlights are performances by Mirage de la Amour, Mr. Latino Pride 2026, Seth Dean and Cosmic Allure; a performance by Haus of Infiniti; and a drag king showcase hosted by Dustin Schlong featuring Calder Goodlay, Indie Inherpants and Valintino Verde. Mayor Mike Coffman and Mayor Pro Tem Alison Coombs are scheduled to deliver remarks during the afternoon. The afternoon slate ends with drag performances by Cousin T, Red, Weird Alnite and Heavenly Powers before a headline DJ set by Cxrdinalis from 5:30 to 7 p.m. Beyond the stage, organizers are bringing in local artists, businesses, community services and food and cocktail vendors, giving visitors reasons to linger for the entire day rather than simply stopping by for a single performance. The event will boast 65 different vendors for the day. The park’s broad, open setting gives Pride room to spread out, while its playground and carousel provide attractions beyond the main entertainment program. Visitors are encouraged to bring lawn chairs, umbrellas, their personal water bottles and containers and plenty of sunscreen for a day out-
doors. Getting there might require some planning. Winged Melody Park has plenty of ADA parking, but regular parking spaces and street parking are somewhat limited. Festival organizers are encouraging visitors to use rideshare services or carpool when possible. The venue does, however, boast hundreds of parking spaces and open space that could accommodate even more parking. The practical considerations are part of what comes with moving a large community event into a bigger venue. But for Aurora Pride, the payoff is a setting that can accommodate the festival’s growing ambitions while keeping the focus on community, Ferreira said. Everyone attending Aurora Pride not only gets the day’s events in a cool venue, but they also get to take in the dozens and dozens of public art along the long and winding art path. Ferreira said it’s actually two events back-toback. Every year, she offers a free outdoor concert at the Umi site, a nationally acclaimed 21-foot sculpture depicting a deity or Gaia figure “blending a woman’s body and hair with tree roots and intertwining branches,” according to the official art description. This year, when Aurora Pride ends at 7 p.m., the concert starts at Umi with two performers. Umi becomes a concert venue with acoustic guitarist Michael Cer from 7 p.m.–9 p.m, followed by a Gospel House set by Pameluv until 10 p.m. At sunset, Umi comes to life with a projection lighting show that runs until 11 p.m. IF YOU GO DATE: Aug. 29, 11 a.m. - 7 p.m. with aftershow until 10 p.m. Aurora Pride after party at Charlie’s in Denver, 900 E.

Conway — who played quarterback for the Overland tackle football team and was also a basketball star before he graduated in 2015 — has returned to his alma mater as a coach. An avid flag football player in his off time, Conway is trying to bring what he’s learned to help the Trailblazers reach the next level in the blossoming sport after the program went a combined 13-13 in its first two seasons.

hen he was one of the biggest faces in athletics at Overland High School, Austin Conway never saw coaching coming. A star guard who helped the Trailblazers win the first of back-to-back then-Class 5A boys state basketball champiGIRLS FLAG FOOTBALL onships in 2015
“It’s still home, but there are different decorations.” When Conway was at Overland, the current softball field was a football practice field, while the newly built swimming pool was also a field used by soccer teams. Conway got acquainted with the new-look campus and school when a Career and Technical Education (CTE) business job came open at
and a dual-threat quarterback for a team that held its own in the Centennial League, Conway’s thoughts were only on his own competition. Fast forward to adulthood and the now 29-year-old is smack dab where he BY COURTNEY OAKES Sports Editor never expected: a coach at his alma mater. Not in basketball or football, however, but girls flag football. “It’s completely different, it doesn’t look like the high school I went to,” Conway said. “There have been so many changes and upgrades.
Overland. It leaned perfectly into his previous professional experience as as a private financial planner and allows him the chance to impact crucial knowledge to teens about how to budget and make wise financial decisions. In a confluence of perfect timing, the flag football coaching job came open. He’s glad things fell together the way they did. “No way this wasn’t fate,” Conway said. “I got this teaching job that allows me to use my experience and then the flag job popped open a short time later. It’s all weird blessings in disguise that all lined up.”
Conway certainly has plenty of experience to add to the mix. A tackle football player for much of his life — at Overland and then at the University of Wyoming, where he caught passes from current Buffalo Bills star quarterback Josh Allen — he found flag at the urging of a friend. At first, he thought it would just be a good workout that could use his football skills and accumen, but he found it much more serious. “I was just doing nothing but working, then I had an old friend hit me up and ask me to play flag,” Conway said. “I was like sure, I’ll give it a try. I had no idea how big it was. It was full on seriousness.” Conway quickly took to the game with the added benefit that because of its non-contact nature, he didn’t feel “like I got hit by a train” as he had the day after he played tackle football games. He plays quarterback and can use his speed and athleticism to his advantage. It was through playing flag that he got connected to somebody who eventually enlisted him to help coach with Laces Up, an elite
Flag foundation
program that has trained some of Colorado’s best girls players and helped them get exposure on the national level. So with an understanding of the; game as a player and with some coaching experience under his belt, Conway was perfectly set up when the Overland job came open. Conway is the third coach in as many seasons and will try to helped the Trailblazers take a step forward after they went a combined 13-13 in the two seasons since the Colorado High School Activities Association officially sanctioned the sport in 2024. Overland graduated its most established talent in Sahniya Vaughn, an All-Centennial League first team offensive player last season (as well as an all-league second teamer on defense), but returns key players such as senior Jalena Flores and junior Joy Jamison. Senior Michaela Halton — a basketball star at Overland — is an intriguing addition after choosing flag over softball, which she played the past three seasons. “We have some players who played before, so the advantage of that is that you don’t have to teach ›› See FLAG, 14

FOOTBALL
Strong start to season for Aurora area teams in action in 4-1 Zero Week Zero Week was definitely a net positive for Aurora area teams. Five local prep football squads were among those that got into regular season action a week before the entire state begins and four of them got off to 1-0 starts. Aurora Central, Eaglecrest, Gateway and Grandview got out many of the opening day mistakes and adversity and came out on top and hopefully set a tone for their respective seasons. Last season, area teams finished just 1-2 in Zero Week, with the lone win coming from Grandview in a head-tohead with Vista PEAK Prep. In terms of tone, there was none better than the one Aurora Central got from senior quarterback Markell Perkins Aug. 21 at Aurora Public Schools Stadium. On the first offensive play from scrimmage for the Trojans in their contest with Adams City, Perkins dropped back, scrambled to his right and broke upfield, where he broke a tackle at the 43-yard line and raced to the end zone for an 80-yard touchdown. It was the first of a whopping five touchdowns that involved Perkins for coach Chris Kelly’s Aurora Central team in a 47-0 shutout victory. Perkins rushed
for two scores (he bookended the game with a 50-yard scoring scamper) and threw touchdown passes to seniors Tayvion Simmons-Adams and Randall Gurley along with junior Elijah Pittman, while senior Julian Harris and junior Antonio Lumba also got into the end zone. Perkins also had a fumble recovery and helped the Trojans to their first defensive shutout since Week 5 of the 2025 season. Grandview and Eaglecrest also won their respective openers in shutout fashion Aug. 22. The Wolves went on the road to face Riverdale Ridge, which was coming off an 11-1 season in 2025 before moving up from Class 4A to 5A. Coach Tom Doherty’s Grandview team welcomed the Ravens to the new classification by dealing them their first shutout since Week 5 of the 2022 season — a span of 39 games — and rolling to a 36-0 victory. In his debut as starting quarterback, junior Lander Wise accounted for 167 yards of total offense, rushed for a touchdown and threw one to junior Blake Richmeier. Senior Matthew Schimberg scored a rushing touchdown as well for Grandview, which racked up 18 points with its play on special teams as well. The Wolves easily converted a pair of two-point conversions in the opening half (which followed Schimberg’s touchdown and Wise’s scrambling score with just 7.1 seconds left before halftime), while the second half included a touchdown from senior Taitum Lucas Thompson — who recovered his own punt block in the end zone — as well as one via a 59-yard punt return from senior Zach Johnston. Eaglecrest smothered visiting Rocky Mountain defensively at Legacy Stadi-
um, as it yielded just 54 yards of total offense in a 36-0 victory. Conversely, coach Jesse German’s team piled 350-plus yards of its own on the other side of the ball, as junior William Brinkman began his second year as the starting quarterback with a total of 233 yards (186 passing, 47 rushing) and three scores. Brinkman took it into the end zone himself twice and also connected with senior JayAnthony Green on a 60-yard touchdown strike, while junior Clyde Surrell IV rushed for 82 yards (plus 43 through the air) and another score. Senior Josiah Assibey also found the end zone on the round for Eaglecrest. Senior Cy White made an impact on both sides of the ball for the Raptors with a total of 85 yards from scrimmage to go along with an interception. Gateway won its season opener for the first time since way back in 2017 when it came away from an Aug. 22 visit to District 20 Stadium in Colorado Springs with a 23-13 victory over Liberty. Senior Lyric Wynn rushed for three touchdowns — half of his entire total for the 2025 season — in the opening half to give coach Rashad Mason’s Olys all the offense it needed. Gateway also scored in the second half via a safety. The lone Zero Week loss among local teams went to Vista PEAK Prep. Coach Kyle Reese’s Bison were plagued by turnovers and Northfield rush for just shy of 300 yards and also score on special teams in a 45-7 win at All-City Stadium. The game was delayed significantly at the start by lightning. The rest of the Aurora area’s teams are scheduled to get into action in Week 1, which begins Aug. 27.
CROSS COUNTRY
Bison’s Brandon Pearcy, Wolves dominate Aurora City Championship meet The Aurora City Championship cross country meet took place Aug. 20 and featured runaway winners both individually (Vista PEAK Prep’s Brandon Pearcy) and as teams (Grandview boys and girls). Not all area teams were present at the Aurora Sports Park — some were slated for the Cheyenne Mountain Stampede on the state meet course Aug. 22 — which held numbers down for the city meet, which dates back to 1981. The boys race opened the day and it was absolutely dominated by Pearcy, who was never challenged as he became the Vista PEAK Prep’s first individual Aurora city champion. Pearcy, who placed third in 2025 behind two runeres from Cherokee Trail (which was absent this season), pulled away from the field in the opening stretch of the race and expanded his advantage over the rest of the 3.1-mile course, which he finished in a time of 16 minutes, 36.72 seconds. Well behind Pearcy came a literal pack of Wolves, as Grandview had six of the top seven finishers for a winning team total of 22 points. Thomas Aarons finished as the runner-up, followed by Joshua Suh and Colton Slagle, while Levi Williams and James Allred took sixth and seventh place, respectively. That was plenty for the Wolves to outdistance Vista PEAK Prep, which also had Izaiah Pearcy finish in fifth place. It was Grandview’s eighth all-time boys team city title. Grandview’s girls — who won the city team championship for the seventh time — were even better with a perfect
score of 15 points. Emerson Hensler grabbed the lead in the opening mile and stayed steady to the finish line for a time of 20:42.53, which made her Grandview’s seventh individual city champion. Teammates Skylar Hensler, Isabella Rodriguez, Nicole Aarons, Sloan Smith and Andrea Pilkington finished Nos. 2-6, respectively, while Eaglecrest’s Thea Downing earned the last All-Aurora first team spot with a seventh place result.

the basics as much and you can start teaching them the advanced stuff,” Conway said. Girls flag football has certainly caught on in the Aurora area. While some girls fall sports in the city — especially softball — have seen decline in numbers, flag seems to be healthy. All of the high schools in Aurora Public Schools (including Aurora West College Prep Academy) have teams, as do all high schools in Cherry Creek Schools plus Regis Jesuit. Statewide, CHSAA revealed that girls flag football experienced a whopping gain of 24.1 percent in terms of participation from 2024 to 2025, listing the number of players as 2,447 (up from 1,972). For two years, the sport has been dominated at a state level by Mountain Vista, which has won the last two state championships, but graduated significant talent, including two-time state player of the year Ariana Akey. Whilt the Golden Eagles have the pedigree to stay on top despite the losses, it has opened the door to other programs who are looking to challenge for a state title. One of the strongest of those contenders is Grandview, which has built a strong culture of its own under head coach Mark Fisher, who was a longtime member of the coaching staff of the school’s tackle football team. The Wolves hit the ground running wiht a winning record in their inaugural season (going 9-8 in 2024) and then took a big leap forward last season with a 13-4 mark. They claimed the Centennial League championship and won their first playoff game with a 13-0 victory over Douglas County before they challenged the Mountain Vista juggernaut in a 27-6 second round defeat. The Golden Eagles still have not lost a game in two-plus seasons, but Fisher and others believe that the chase for the 5A state championship might be more open. “Mountain Vista is still really good and they should still be the favorite until somebody beats them, but it gives you a little hope that there is more parity this year,” Fisher said. “We went to a jamboree at Denver South two weeks ago with 16 teams in it and every one of them is better than they were the previous year. Everybody knows what they are doing now and there is a big difference in the talent level from those first two years. “There are four or five teams that feel like they have a real chance and I’d like to think we are some of those teams.” That belief from Fisher stems from the fact that he has one of the state’s best players in senior Brooke Sullivan, who made the AllState first team last season.

With tremendous versatility and instincts, Sullivan has earned a slew of accolades and played well on a national level over the summer. A standout at both quarterback and defensive back, Sullivan is the clear catalyst for the team, but it leans on her just a little bit less this season because of its allaround level of experience. Other seniors such as Aniya Coleman and Kendall Tracy plus a large nucleus of juniors such as Jayden Schwabauer, Delainey Burgeson, Meta Wa-Kalonji and K’Dence Thomas give the Wolves the type of depth that few other programs possess. Fisher has his entire starting defense back and the majority of
the offense, which allowed Grandview to hit the ground running this season. The Wolves — who won their first two games by a staggering tally of 90-0 — have a stacked stretch of the season coming up, including back-to-back contests against powerhouses Legend (Aug. 31) and Mountain Vista (Sept. 2). “We tried to build up a good schedule,” Fisher said. “We’ll see where were really at in the next two weeks.” Also in the upcoming stretch for Grandview is the Aurora area’s other program that is off to a remarkable start in Vista PEAK Prep. The Bison are not quite as far along in the development process as the Wolves, but have begun to
establish themselves as a force in a season-plus under Marcus Pinillo, who also coaches with Laces Up. The future looks bright, as Pinillo said that 20 freshmen have joined the mix and all are multisport athletes. The Bison — who were 7-8 last season — opened the 2026 season with a loss, but it came to defending 4A state champion and powerhouse Classical Academy (by just a count of 19-6), but has since won their next four games, including the last three in lopsided fashion. Junior Rilee Bergquist was the state’s leading passer through the first four games of the season with 667 yards, while she ranked second among state passers with nine
touchdown strikes. Bergquist also calmly helped lead Vista PEAK Prep back from a late deficit in a 13-12 win over Columbine Aug. 18. One of her favorite targets is senior Joanna Byrd, who had 15 catches for 237 yards and four touchdowns in the first four games. Pinillo’s goals for his team include winning the championship of the City League as well as earning the program’s first postseason trip. Aurora Central is off to a 2-0 start — which is significant given it won just two games total in all of last season — and will face off against Overland (which is o-2) in a local battle. Rangeview and Regis Jesuit have both been competitive programs the past two seasons and both have new leadership, as former Regis Jesuit coach Ben Danecki is now at Rangeview, while Mary Stephenson has taken the head job with Regis Jesuit. Other Aurora area programs have gotten off to slow starts to the season, but all appear to be building forward.

Back to school and fighting off infections like we did in the dark ages
T
he return to school and a potential public health disaster last week in Pennsylvania underscore why Colorado must end its perilous philosophical exemption to mandatory immunization. Two unvaccinated Pennsylvania “residents” died after being infected with measles, the first U.S. deaths this year related to the contagious virus, the Associated Press reported this week. The state so far has released no details about the victims or how they contracted measles. “Because measles was largely eliminated in the Commonwealth for more than three decades, people are not familiar with this disease and don’t fully understand the potential severity of the illness,” state Health Secretary Dr. Debra Bogen told the media. As Colorado public school students return to school and what almost any parent knows is a few weeks of mixing up all kinds of contagions among kids in closed quarters, the threat right here in Aurora, and across Colorado is real. There have been five measles-associated deaths in the last two years across the country, more than the combined total of reported deaths over the previous three decades, according to national records. With 2,777 reported cases as of Thursday — 24 here in Colorado — this year already has surpassed the 2025 measles count. It’s an astounding number and the tragedy that speaks to the damage ignorant and irresponsible parents are causing in communities across the nation — including Colorado. Shockingly, Colorado ranks near the bottom of states for rates of child immunization compliance. It’s unnerving because the state has one of the highest proportions of highly educated parents in the nation. But a large number of parents, and previous state lawmakers, have fallen victim to a pervasive ruse undermining immunization rates and public health. That ruse is a regularly discredited study run by a discredited doctor who fallaciously tied autism to childhood vaccinations. The U.S. media irresponsibly published the claims despite experts exposing the author’s poor science, helping to legitimize them. More worrisome, President Donald Trump not only appointed one of the chief vaccine deniers and conspiracy theorists to run U.S. health administration agencies, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., both leaders continue to promote their lethal quackery, most recently working to undermine U.S. research-approved childhood vaccine schedules and protocols. And both Trump and Kenney continue to pursue their repeatedly debunked autism hoax. There is not one reputable pediatrician, pediatric organization, hospital, clinic or researcher that does not vehemently work to debunk the autism lie and beg parents to vaccinate their children. Now, huge swaths of the public are at dire risk across the nation, especially as school resumes. Measles is not an inconvenience. It can easily be deadly to children and adults with compromised immune systems who depend on “the herd” to remain disease free through mass immunization. It can be deadly to healthy children, too. But states like Colorado have succumbed to ignorant parent pressure and continue to allow anyone to keep from vaccinating their child and attend public schools without a valid medical reason. In Colorado, it’s easy to say that you don’t want to vaccinate and cumbersome to prove that your child has their shots. In 2020, Senate Bill 163 made it only slightly less easy for parents to ditch critical vaccines by taking an extra step by getting a non-medical exemption signed by a physician. Easier? Parents can, instead, take an online “education module link” that tries to inform the parent to pay heed to vaccine science, and that’s it. That’s not good public health policy. It’s unjustified and indefensible quackery. Public health officials need to intervene and push vaccination messages to children in public schools and their families until more sober and cogent legislators return and make rightfully mandatory vaccines mandatory again.

It’s way past time to Harp on Trump and his handyman handmaiden
I
’m not qualified to write original lyrics for Natalie Harp: The Musical, so I’ll just crib from Karen Carpenter’s crooning. Feel free to sing along with the Natalie actress: Why do stars fall down from the sky Every time you walk by? Just like me, they long to be Close to you… The actor who plays Trump would lap it up and call her “my Natalie” (which is how the deteriorating octogenarian describes her in real life), then maybe she’d soothe him with honeyed words from a Hallmark card, something like “you are all that matters to me” (which is what the handmaiden wrote in real life), then maybe he’d croon “you’ll never leave me” (which is what Trump said in real life), then maybe they’d sing a duet while crafting a social media post that depicts the Obamas as apes (again, real life)… The possibilities are endless. This show has all the makings of a Broadway hit. And all because Georgia senator Jon Ossoff slipped three little words into a recent speech: “…While the sailors on the Lincoln fight (Trump’s) war, while he fruitlessly drains our munitions and oil reserves, the president sleeps through his meetings. He golfs and trades stocks. So he doesn’t want to do the job. He wants to build his ballroom and travel with Natalie on their apparently defenseless flying palace gifted by the Emir of Qatar…” What the perpetually lying Trump regime hates more than anything else is the truth. It’s hard to know with 100 percent certitude why the regime and its MAGA allies have been so ballistically over-triggered by the Democrat’s little dig. Trump has cheated on all his wives, so surely they’re not embarrassed by the prospect that he’s doing it again. This isn’t about sex. This is about something far worse – a malignant narcissist locked in a co-dependent relationship with an adoring in-house stalker. I bet they realize Ossoff nailed it. The regime’s official position (a lie, naturally) is the whole Natalie Harp thing is just a distraction ginned up by MAGA’s enemies. But in truth Harp’s obsession with Trump, and his receptive neediness, are crucial to our understanding of what passes for governance today. It is the very definition of real news. We’re stuck waging a fruitless war, the world
thinks we’re a joke, we’ve lost military bases in the Middle East, a gallon of gas is north of four bucks, key food prices are up, new tariffs slapped on Canada will spike more inflation, ICE arrests hit a record high in July, the Department of Justice functions as Trump’s criminal defense firm, and public support for the regime has dropped to a record low (33 percent). Meanwhile, the guy ostensibly in charge has taken refuge inside a fantasy bubble where he can live in delusion and float on a wave of flattery, nurtured by a groupie who reportedly worked for a year without a security clearance. How did Trump fixate on this gal anyway? Take a wild guess. She scored the credentialed trifecta: (1) She was young, (2) she was blonde, and (3) she was on Fox News. “I don’t ever want to let you down,” she once told him. She calls him her “Guardian and Protector in this Life.” Good grief. Even Eva Braun would tell her to dial it down. Functioning presidents are often willing to listen to adverse advice; Trump loves Harp because she would never dare. According to the Wall Street Journal, “Some administration officials have privately complained that Harp has shown the president material from far-right groups that is riddled with false or misleading information.” When Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg was building a case against him, Harp found a cartoon that showed Trump wielding a baseball bat at Bragg’s head. She shared it with Trump, who expressed his gratitude by posting it on social media. She also aided and abetted his relentless social media attacks on E. Jean Carroll, the Trump sexual abuse victim and recent recipient of $5 million in damages. I think it was Dante who got it right back in the 14th century. In his narrative poem The Divine Comedy, he condemned flatterers and sycophants to the eighth circle of hell. One doomed denizen lamented, “Down here is where my flatteries…have sunk me.” But the suck-ups were not alone. The eighth circle was also the designated home for sowers of discord and falsifiers. Perfect! A certain couple could dwell there forever, happy in eternity. – Dick Polman, a veteran national political columnist based in Philadelphia and a Writer in Residence at the University of Pennsylvania, writes the Subject to Change newsletter.
