This week on the Get More Smarter Podcast, Dark Brandon signed the debt ceiling bill to avert a global economic catastrophe, for now, and House Republicans are revolting! (But not after supplying a sufficient number of votes to pass the bill in the first place) As a result, we have occasion to ask our favorite question, “What the Buck?” and check in with our 8th favorite member of Congress from Colorado as she breaks the first rule of holes…over and over and over again. Guns are the number one killer of children in the country, so it’s no surprise that the firearms-obsessed GOP is losing serious ground with young people — even young Republicans.
But first…the election in Denver is finally over, and Mike Johnston is the new Mayor of that city to the east. We have our two Denver experts back on the show: Bree Davies and Paul Karolyi from City Cast Denver join us once more to break down the final tally and ask “is there room for two guys from Lakewood in Mike Johnston’s Denver?”

Ken Buck quoted in this podcast about why Kevin McCarthy gives him the sads ( at 49:31) "Where I come from in Colorado, you are only as good as your word…"
Ken Buck doesn't come from Colorado. He was born in Ossining, New York to lawyer parents, grew up there, went to Princeton, got his law degree in Wyoming in 1985, went to work for Dick Cheney, helped him cover up Iran-Contra, and moved to Colorado and ran for elected office in 2004 when he was 45 years old.
In other words, a carpetbagging flatlander trying to come off as a rough-hewn guy from the eastern plains. Blech.
