For the second time this summer, a local Republican activist, campaign worker and former candidate has been arrested and charged with multiple child sex felonies. Last week agents with the Colorado Bureau of Investigation arrested Gage Montoya, of Trinidad, on multiple child pornography and weapons charges. This happened about three months after Weld GOP Chair Hunter Rivera's arrest in May for attempted sexual assault on a child and three other related felonies.


New 50% U.S. tariffs on about $20 billion of Canadian goods took effect Saturday after last-minute trade negotiations collapsed, prompting Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney to pledge matching retaliation, Bloomberg reported. The duties apply to hundreds of Canadian products, including plywood, alcoholic beverages, electrical equipment and hockey gear. Carney said Canada would respond "dollar for dollar" to protect domestic workers and businesses.


Natalie Harp penned intimate letters to President Trump ... and now we're seeing them for the first time, and they show Harp's total devotion to Trump, telling him he's all that matters to her and she never wants to let him down. Harp also wrote she was sorry for stepping onto the golf course instead of riding in a cart. She pleaded with Trump to "please forgive me" if she had done anything else to cause him trouble. She went on to write that she wants "things to always be right between us" and that she's "been distracted all week" while forgetting to eat and sleep at times.

Conservative lawmakers and pundits alike spoke out on the internet Friday after President Donald Trump announced a new deal that will temporarily lift certain tariffs on ground beef imports, with Sen. Tim Sheehy (R-MT) warning "this will further harm" American ranchers, "most of whom are MAGA Republicans." In addition to Sheehy, Sen. Deb Fischer (R-NE) also chimed in Friday, writing, "I'm extremely disappointed by this decision from the White House. We all want lower grocery prices, but as I've said for months, we cannot do it at the expense of American producers."
