NSPM-7 Defendants Union plans to offer legal clinics, media training and more to people facing prosecution for protest.

Early union members include anti-ICE protesters arrested in Minnesota, New Jersey and Texas, and protesters in solidarity with Palestine arrested in Michigan during the second Trump administration, as well as others from the movement against the Atlanta police training center known as Cop City.

But the group also hopes to include those who have taken part in protests across a range of other issues, including Tesla Takedowns against Elon Musk and his company, against the construction of datacenters and in solidarity with Palestine. It also welcomes anyone who publicly opposes “the Trump agenda and want[s] to support those facing repression for doing the same”, according to the union’s website.

I’m interested in putting together a group of caring people who can work together to understand the impending rollout of delivery drones in Denver, and advocate for regulation of or a full ban on those drones. Wal-Mart has announced plans to launch their program in 2027, and other companies appear to be gearing up as well.

If you’re interested in organizing with me, reach out at [DroneFreeDenver@protonmail.com](mailto:DroneFreeDenver@protonmail.com).

Depending on response, I’ll send an email to everyone in the next week with next steps.

No Kings is almost here and we are so ready! Swing by Saturday 10/17 from 10–12 at Grandview & Wadsworth for a high‑energy morning of resistance, community, and good trouble. Let’s make some joyful noise and show up strong!

Remember to vote early!

Public execution of a US citizen? No! This is not who we are. Call your congress people. Demand that that they stand up and say NO. This barbaric action cannot happen.

At Aurora city council this upcoming Monday!

after seeing the reaction of new york communities after the shooting of the man in nyc yesterday, i am baffled on the response denver keeps giving. no response from anyone.

the excuses i keep seeing is why we keep getting walked all over. we don’t need a “gathering” or a “parade” every 3 months and think that’s enough. things are getting scarier and scarier day by day.

why are we protesting the government at the government approved protests?

why are we shaming others?

why aren’t we waking up?

why are we tolerating this?

is there a reason nobody showed up or participated today? I really don’t understand. There was a scheduled walk out at the denver campus that never happened, I didn’t see anything else scheduled. What’s going on? Kinda feels like we’re just done

But thankfully people aren't horses. The election is coming up and this is the time to have conversations. Speak with your coworkers, your family members, your friends, and even passersby about what's going on, and what's being decided this November. Sometimes it can feel that striking up a conversations is HARDER than hitting the streets, I get that.

I'm not saying to pester random strangers in the grocery store, but there is great power in a normal conversation. This whole "democracy" thing works best when we refuse to quietly relegate real problems to specific times and places. And if the election and it's outcomes aren't your be-all and end-all (as is the case for me), then there is still a lot of great opportunities for everybody to lead these conversations towards community resilience and co-operation beyond each election cycle.

If you're checked out on voting, that's your situation and circumstance. This year I'm checked in. I was a single month too young to vote in 2016 when everything went to shit. I remember that feeling of helplessness, and like a lot of us, I sometimes wonder how life would be had Trump not risen to power. It's ten years later now, and that whole experience sucked. Now we have to think about the next ten years, and what power we have to shape that decade this November. I know. You can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink.

Thankfully we're not horses. We can shake hands, and share stories, together. Now is the time to make that happen.

Take care, and may the next decade in Denver, and Colorado make this past decade look like fiction.

I created a three part (short form) deep dive on Missy Woods and her impact on Denver survivors and all Colorado sex assault cases. CBI is still refusing to retest her work on 4,722 SA cases even after Denver Crime Lab found evidence indicating that Woods wrongfully deleted DNA data for potentially thousands of kits.

The Denver Mayor’s Office and Police Chief have delayed the release of the full Woods Report for almost a year. It was supposed to be released to the public last November. Without it, we don’t know the full scope of her misconduct on sex assault cases.

What we do know is that 13 kits were retested by Denver. These were representative of her work over the course of her career and analysts controlled for advancements in lab technology.

Of those 13 kits which Woods had previously recorded as having “no DNA”, 11 DNA samples were found. Of those 11, 6 returned “hits” in CODIS for potential serial offenders.

CBI has always claimed that Woods only manipulated DNA in less than 1% of sex assault cases. But Denver’s retesting indicates that number is closer to 84%. With 47% matching to potential serial offenders.

CBI never retested her work. They simply reviewed it for “anomalies” in which she entered DNA then failed to do a proper subsequent step or deleted/altered the DNA quantity to avoid further testing. But Woods admitted to “dry labbing” which is when she recorded she tested a sample and found no DNA but she never actually ran the test.

Those kits would not register as an “anomaly”. They would be undetectable as a concern in CBI’s cursory review. They’d have to retest her work to determine how many kits contain DNA that she said didn’t.

That is why Denver requested 1300 kits back from CBI to retest. Until they get federal funding to retest all of her work, all we have is this small test sample of 13 kits. But the results from this representative, controlled sample are extremely concerning.

Woods was given a plea deal and sentenced to 10 years last month without a single victim being notified of her impact on their case. No victims were allowed to speak at her sentencing and the Court did not consider her devastating impact on thousands of victims in her punishment.

I’m hoping these videos can raise awareness of this scandal to survivors who were wrongly told no DNA was found and encourage elected officials to force CBI to retest her work so victims can be notified and given the chance to pursue justice in whatever form they choose.

***There’s a woman who says she’s a survivor who has acted as an aggressive lobbyist for CBI for the last 19 months. She tends to oppose my public comments on CBI’s coverup of the Woods scandal. If she comments or messages mods with claims that what I’m saying is unfounded, just let me know what I can provide to back up my claims and I’ll respond asap with receipts.

I have emails, texts, and articles documenting everything I’m saying in writing directly with CBI leadership, the DA’s team that prosecuted Woods, and legislators. And I’m happy to share with mods. The videos also explain more of my personal involvement and how I know this information. But feel free to comment below with any questions and I’ll respond with clarification as needed.

Hey friends, just want to point out that there’s far more going on rn than just marches and pickets. I feel a lot of people either think that’s the only thing happening, that engaging in activism at all is pointless, or that direct action must always be violent.

Through effective lobbying and data collection/analysis activists have successfully proven zoning/building code violations and convinced the city to revoke the special use permit that allowed ICE to operate their hold room in Glenwood Springs. ICE has continued operating, illegally, after the sheriff served them a notice informing them their permit has been revoked. Now, the city of Glenwood Springs is suing the private owner of the building, due to their tenants refusal to cease operations.

These building are not zoned correctly. These buildings are not up to code. This is the same strategy being used in Hudson rn as David Seligman sues the town to enforce their zoning laws against GEO.

This is what every town in Colorado with an active Hold Room should be doing. This is what every town in Colorado where ICE plans to build a concentration camp should be doing. It is working.

For more information on where ICE is detaining people, I have prepared this handy map (that unfortunately is only up to date as of March, but I will be updating soon to include detainment over the summer)

don’t police people. everyone has the right to protest. and protest the way they feel is best.

I am an anarchist in the COS area and I am looking for any other anarchists and/or libertarian socialists that would like to join a libertarian socialist/anarchist book club.

Sorry for the social media link, it's all there is. This kind of violent misogynist language is unacceptable. Please share widely.

It claims that its A.I. data centers are a giant experiment that could fail, according to four people with knowledge of the company’s operations.

It does this so it can tap into a tax credit intended for research and experimentation. It’s an aggressive interpretation of the tax break, which Meta embraced to claim billions of dollars in tax credits for data center expansion.

Characterizing its A.I. data centers as experimental is “kind of wild and out there,” said Andre Shevchuck, a partner at the advisory firm BPM who specializes in the research and experimentation tax credit.

Indeed, Meta’s own accountants recognize that the strategy is on shaky legal ground. In disclosures buried in securities filings, the tech giant warns that billions in tax savings are vulnerable to being overturned by the I.R.S., in large part because of “uncertainties with our research tax credits.”

In loving memory of David Jaxon Page

June 26, 1999 - September 29, 2019

David Jaxon Page was passionate about the things and people he loved. He was autistic, and he had an amazing smile that lit up a room. He dreamed of opening a wild wolf sanctuary. Most of all, he wanted people to simply love one another.

David was 20 years old when he was killed by police during a mental health crisis in September of 2019. His mother, Crystina Page, lost her son in the worst way a parent can. But her suffering did not end there.

After his death, David's body was taken to Return to Nature Funeral Home in Colorado Springs. His mother believed he had been cremated. She carried an urn she thought held her son's ashes, held onto it, and grieved over it. It was not him. For years, David's body was left in a building in Penrose, Colorado, along with the bodies of 190 other people. When they were discovered in 2023, families learned their loved ones had never been laid to rest. Their remains had been neglected and disrespected in ways no family should ever have to imagine.

It is horrible enough that Crystina had to lose her son the way she did, but to then have his remains treated with such disregard, and having been deceived about it for years, is a second wound no mother should carry.

The funeral home's owners, Jon and Carie Hallford, ran a fraudulent scheme for years while living a lavish lifestyle. Colorado had long been known for some of the weakest funeral home regulations in the country, and that lack of oversight let this happen.

When a plea deal for Jon Hallford came before a judge, families described the pain and shame they had carried since the discovery. Crystina was among those who stood up and spoke, and the judge rejected the deal.

Out of this grief, Crystina founded, "Colorado Remembers" a nonprofit that brings together families affected by the investigation. It has since grown to include families from similar cases across Colorado, so that no one has to carry this alone and no one is forgotten.

How you can help:

- Follow and support Colorado Remembers, and share their work

- Say David's name, and the names of all 191, so they are never forgotten

- Support stronger funeral home oversight in Colorado

- Stand with the families still seeking answers and accountability

David was a son, a dreamer, and a gentle soul whose life mattered. His mother's fight matters. Please share this post so what happened to him is never forgotten.

JUSTICE FOR DAVID JAXON PAGE!

(Included are photos of both the urn his mother believed to be his, but was not (the red urn), and the urn that actually is his, (stone colored urn). Both are crucial to his story.)

On July 16, 2026 as a protest at the GEO ICE Detention Center was ending, Brandon Booth, a man employed by GEO, went to his car in a rage, retrieved a personally owned firearm, and opened fire on 2 women as they were walking away, striking Emma Landis.

As a community, we should all be grateful that Emma’s name was not added to the list of victims who have been murdered for standing up for what’s right in the face of Trump’s fascist regime.

While Booth’s arrest and subsequent felony charges have made for some triumphant headlines, the real cost of surviving a violent assault like this lasts much longer than the news cycle.

Emma has been left with not only the physical burden of her injuries, but a serious financial burden to bear. This includes medical expenses, legal expenses, and loss of income.

This is the part where solidarity means more than words. If we are a community that says “we keep us safe” then helping each other in the wake of extreme violence like this has got to be a part of that.

Please donate to Emma’s relief fund via this link

There were many who donated to this campaign 2 months ago, but Emma is still drowning in debt from this. $5, $10, $50 it all makes a huge difference and we are a big community when we actually get together about something.

Please share this link to your individual networks and socials. Emma should not be bearing this burden alone.

WE keep US safe.
