Nominee Neera Tanden for Office of Management and Budget (OMB) did not delete tweets that accuse Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) of being “high on her supply.” This is a shocking revelation amid a sinking nomination in need of every last vote, especially moderate Murkowski’s. After Murkowski tweeted about lowering the corporate tax rate, Tanden retweeted back, “No offense but this sounds like you’re high on your own supply” and “You know, we know, and everyone knows this is all garbage. Just stop.” Murkowski has not yet commented on how she will vote on Tanden’s confirmation. Her office did not immediately respond when asked about the tweet, according to a report . Tanden’s nomination is in dire straits with Sen. Joe Manchin (R-WV), Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT), and Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME) confirming the will oppose Tanden’s confirmation. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), representing the most ideological members as chairman of the nominating committee, was also publicly attacked … [Read more...] about Neera Tanden Did Not Delete Tweets Criticizing Lisa Murkowski: ‘High on Your Own Supply’

Anymore, the Carmelo Anthony trade lives on the periphery. There are still scattered boos at the Pepsi Center when he touches the ball. There remains scant buzz when he is introduced to the crowd. But he’s not a huge draw in Denver, no longer a must see — even if it is just to come to the game to boo. A sparse audience Tuesday night confirmed that. It has been five years since Anthony forced his way out of Denver. The Nuggets beat his team in Denver, 110-94, but such an outcome has been par for the course since he left. Anthony has never won a game in Denver since he left, going 0-for-3. And while any pain inflicted on the court to Anthony mattered significantly to fans early on, it’s barely a blip now. So much has changed. In the Nuggets organization, the trade is hardly ever brought up. Coach Michael Malone wasn’t here for it. General manager Tim Connelly wasn’t here. Only one of the players involved in the trade was even on the court Tuesday night — the centerpiece, … [Read more...] about Carmelo Anthony’s return to Denver doesn’t burn as before; Nuggets beat Knicks

For people, policy and Colorado politics What’s The Spot? You’re reading an installment of our weekly politics newsletter. Sign up here to get it delivered straight in your inbox . The Colorado legislature is primed to pass a bill to provide in-state tuition at public colleges and universities to American Indian students whose tribes have ties to this state, even if those students don’t live here. Lawmakers, higher education officials and some Indigenous leaders have hailed this as an overdue step toward undoing historical injustice against Indigenous people. Yet Brett Chapman, a civil rights attorney and member of the Pawnee Nation of Oklahoma, isn’t impressed. The bill doesn’t go far enough, he says, and if Colorado really wanted to do something with impact, it would provide free tuition for these students. “It’s just really performative,” Chapman says. “The only thing they’re giving them is the ability to pay tuition same as the white people whose ancestors ran off … [Read more...] about The Spot: Why popular ideas don’t always become law, Twitter’s hold on the 3rd Congressional District and Juneteenth
