    The real show down is not a college football game, but the escalating tension between Colorado's local and state leadership and the incoming Trump administration on the issue of illegal migration or, more aptly, the ongoing criminal invasion.

    We're about to find out if "sanctuary" policies are actually lawful, and I'm here for it.

    As we reported last week, Mayor Mike Johnston tacitly called for insurrection against the Federal Government before walking back claims on 9News over the weekend. The initial comments were reported by Denverite and quickly gained nationwide coverage, with Homan welcoming the challenge in a series of media appearances. This one is my favorite:

    Johnston imported a new class of residents, or "newcomers" as he calls them. This class includes violent criminal invaders and South American gang members, and Mayor Newcomer's tenure has made Denver and Colorado as a whole remarkably less safe. In response to criticism and popular pushback, he gaslit all of us that newcomers are our strength, calling anyone who disagreed some variation of "bigot." Yawn.

    Johnston, and the rest of Colorado's progressive leadership class, have prioritized the criminal invasion over the safety and service needs of Colorado citizens -- their actual constituents -- and it's been such a travesty that Colorado's migrant crisis is a regular national news story.

    I am a huge proponent of state's rights and putting the federal government back in it's constitutionally-mandated box. But protecting the nation's borders, and interior, from foreign invasion is literally part of the federal government's constitutional mandate, enshrined in the "Guarantee Clause."

    The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government, and shall protect each of them against Invasion; and on Application of the Legislature, or of the Executive (when the Legislature cannot be convened) against domestic Violence.

    US Constitution. Article IV, Section 4

    The Denver Mayor has decided to defy the US Constitution, and the US Code, to protect the rapists and murderers roaming our streets. This is treasonous and, setting aside that the Denver Police already said they decidedly DO NOT have his back on this, the federal government will be in violation of their oaths if they allow Johnston to continue.

    It's time the matter of sanctuary policies is resolved once and for all, and it's likely to happen here in Colorado.

    It's right and just that the state versus federal showdown over the criminal invasion takes place in the Centennial State. At this point, we've earned the right to a front row seat.
