Footage immediately after the mob violently attacked me at Denver's student walkout yesterday. I was chased from the east side of the park to the SW corner of the park. While backing into the crosswalk a group of teenagers attacked me at the direction of many of the adults seen in this video. I was taken to the ground and while in fetal position was attacked from multiple directions. My GoPro with footage of the attack was stolen and my microphone was damaged. If you have footage of my attack please contact me.

Shorter version of the attack at the Denver Colorado student walkout. Students throwing frozen water bottles and and physically attacking journalists on the ground. This was a riot. Pray for @BreakTheChainsM

In light of tomorrow's ICE OUT school walk out protests happening across Colorado & possibly the country, I'll just leave this here for everyone to read over. Kids being used as political props to push an agenda is exactly what radical extremists do. History has shown us this.

Adopted person here.🙋🏼‍♀️ I was an unwanted pregnancy. My big brother was, too. We did not deserve to die. Our adoptive family wanted us more than anything and gave us the best life. I don't understand why condemning adoption in support of abortion is a talking point.
Imagine looking at millions of adopted people and concluding they'd be better off dead.

This protest against Drip Cafe happens EVERY Friday during Art Walk. Check out my video from Drip Cafe last year.

Denver Communists, a violent Antifa group that has incited violence against me and others, sent its Trantifa comrades to target Drip Café for being run by Christians connected to an outreach ministry. Denver has many far-left extremists empowered to intimidate and attack others due to Democrats being in full power.

Thank you Erin, for leading 3000+ volunteers for historic grassroots ballot measures in Colorado. Protect kids from “gender” surgery and Save Girls’ Sports may go to voters this fall. In a blue state. Now a fight with Sec of State. Thank you to supporters of our 10-day campaign in December!!! The campaign to push us higher into the safety zone would NOT have happened or been successful without @ConceptualJames, who, wait for it… was right. I hope the numbers are enough—they should be—we will know in a few weeks. @Erin4Parents has sacrificed for 2+ years and led boldly. @HiKidHey is a secret, and not-so-secret, weapon. @IsaiahLCarter @NinoChavezX @ApostateRadioNY my brothers @EithanDHaimMD @Sexisrealpsych @ColoradoDoctors my colleagues @SuperOfMyHome @ColoradoGirl73 @Thedukeisking @ForestMommy @corTheory @UnmitigatedAss @JenniferSey @xx_xyathletics @CarlottaPini @WaynesWordPod @ericmetaxas @lancewallnau @MissyMurdrem2 @CopyWhoTV @JenSchumann1776 @SenKirkmeyer @ScottBottomsCO @SarahGeving1 @victormarx @orcaspeaks @HopeSchepp @Eamon_USA @ErinFriday75490 @luce_lexi @FocoGrohs24 @greigmveeder @LoriGim @jeffcleghornga @SummerYuleRDN @Dierenbach @LisaintheMtns @Rebeccaandgus @CPANColorado Many more—some who I think are anonymous or I’d recognize them.

For the safety of our volunteers, we have stopped gathering signatures at the grocery store in Fort Collins. Grandmothers peacefully standing up for kids incited more threats, insanity & police visits than I’m comfortable subjecting our wonderful volunteers to. I’m getting so many death threats from the psychos in Fort Collins Reddit threads. We must be close to over the target.🎯

I’m so happy to see this day—the first historically mainstream US medical professional society advising no “gender” surgery in kids. I’m struck that, yes, this nightmare really WILL end. For everybody except the parents and patients. Some scars are lifelong.
The time is coming when the proponents of this nonsense will have to admit there was never any evidence to support it.

BREAKING UPDATE: Colorado Police officer Haili Hazel-Shimko is NO LONGER EMPLOYED following post appearing to call to shoot ICE agents in the head Colorado residents are now more safe with her off the force. FAFO
EXCLUSIVE: Meet Haili Hazel-Shimko, a police officer with the Erie Police Dept in Colorado. Haili allegedly made a post online advocating for the m*rder of ICE agents, saying "they wear armor so headshots would work better." The Erie Police told us they have now opened an internal investigation. Anyone promoting the m*rder of federal agents should NOT be in charge of enforcing our laws. HAILI MUST BE FIRED AND CHARGED.

KIDS in @JeffcoSchoolsCo ENCOURAGED TO TRACK ICE: I am told these slides were presented to students as young as 14 at Jefferson County Open School today (during a required Governance class). This is not an appropriate use of classrooms and encouraging kids to track or intervene on law enforcement is clearly dangerous. The “How to Report Ice” posters are hanging in the school.

Shocker! The mayor of my city... Same woman who forced a child mutilation crosswalk down our throats with our tax dollars. — And had her fetish partner in his dog mask follow her around on a leash & howl for the crosswalk ribbon cutting. No, I’m not kidding. Watch 👀 Everyone just acts like this is all normal here. It’s like entering the twilight zone.
Fort Collins, Colorado Mayor Emily Francis organized a run with her constituents with a route to spell out “stop ICE” So stunning and brave. I’m sure this will do the trick! Elected Democrat officials want to protect illegal alien r*pists and m*rderers.

💥⛓️‍💥 SB26-004 just passed the Colorado Senate on a vote of 20-13. This bill expands the red flag laws to allow children to report to their teachers on relatives with firearms. It also allows medical workers & DAs to report the same. This is exactly what communists do.
