The Denver Post Has Lost Its Mind: Endorsing Soviet-Style Socialism for Colorado The Denver Post Editorial Board has officially hit a new low. Endorsing Melat Kiros for Colorado’s 1st Congressional District isn’t just out of touch—it is radical, reckless, and completely unhinged. The Post admits in its own editorial that Kiros is a high-ranking member of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA)—a group whose stated goal is to dismantle America's capitalist economy. The editors even acknowledge that her agenda is "scary," "radical," and risks national "collapse." Yet, in the very next breath, they give her their official stamp of approval. Why? Because of her "drive" and "intellectual might." Since when does "drive" justify handing the keys of Denver’s economy to someone openly trying to recreate Soviet-style, state-run control right here in Colorado? Kiros’s platform isn't just progressive—it's full-blown state socialism: State-run grocery stores: Government-managed food distribution, straight out of the Soviet playbook. Government-monopolized healthcare: Eliminating private options to put the state completely in charge of your medical care. Dismantling our national defense: Drastically cutting military funding at a time when global stability is under severe threat. Denver voters need real solutions—economic growth, lowering the cost of living, public safety, and sensible governance—not an ideological experiment that endangers local businesses, working families, and basic economic stability. The Denver Post has made its choice: complete radicalism over common sense. Voters in Congressional District 1 need to reject this foolish endorsement and vote for stability, economic freedom, and pragmatic leadership at the ballot box. Today's Democrats are equivalent to yesterday's Soviets. denverpost.com/2026/10/25/me… qminder.com/blog/queue-manag… @denverpost
