WEDNESDAY UPDATE: The photo below apparently originates from something called the “Denver Stormer Book Club,” which we’ll confess we did not even know existed until we received this photo. And it appears they’ve been Photoshopping!
For those of you wondering, the left one is Arapahoe County DA George Brauchler, illustrated pressing the button to gas the Aurora theater shooter. The right one is Lundberg again, presumably acting out the fantasies of the Denver Stormer Book Club.
Of course, we’re not implying that this “art” was sanctioned by either candidate. But just like the alt-right’s fascination with Republicans at higher levels, it’s perfectly fair to ask what the, you know, affinity might be here.
Unless it’s obvious…

A photo sent to us today is likely to cause some uncomfortable moments for the leading GOP candidate for Colorado Treasurer, Sen. Kevin Lundberg:
That’s a guy wearing a T-shirt for the white supremacist Daily Stormer website, which readers are aware has migrated to the “dark web” after gaining infamy for smearing victims of the white supremacist vehicular terror attack in Charlottesville, Virginia. It’s entirely possible the photo was taken before the Charlottesville attack, but Daily Stormer’s longstanding role as a central white supremacist organizing platform offers Lundberg little excuse.
Little excuse, and lots of unpleasant questions for one of Colorado’s hardest-right elected officials! After all, Lundberg’s political nexus with the Daily Stormer crowd is as easy to find as the Republican Study Committee of Colorado’s field trips to the Mexican border to “fact-find” with militia groups.
But we’ll leave that all to Sen. Lundberg to explain.

I wonder what Lundberg's handle on the site is.
Come on, Pols. It's not like the guy was wearing a Planned Parenthood t-shirt.
Planned Parenthood actually kills people. Has this website?
Moldy. Your Daily Stormer friends have killed people and would have killed more if that Vice News doc with the crying Nazi is any indication.
If you want to continue smearing Planned Parenthood, are you willing to do the decent thing and condemn the Charlottesville Nazis like Cory Gardner himself has done?
I think that sums you and the right up nicely.
Who are the people that Planned Parenthood is killing?
They killed Moldy's imaginary friends. His only friends.
Ah, not according to the Supreme Court's abortion jurisprudence, Moddy. But then, you love the party of "life until the bastard's born."
Let's compare and contrast the tale of two T-shirts, shall we? One is a Planned Parenthood T shirt, the other is a Daily Stormer T shirt. One of them he'll take a selfie with, the other needs him to "fight" to "promote moral values".
Lundberg's Facebook post (reacting to the Gardner town hall at CCU) one
Lundberg begins by supposing that 90% of the audience were "Bernie Sanders Supporters" and wore T shirts supporting Planned Parenthood"! The horror! Undaunted, the senator preaches
So, Senator Lundberg, how is that "promoting moral values", and generosity, compassion, making things right, and righteousness align with the Daily Stormer's values:
Guess Lundberg never attended any of the original, rowdy, Dem town halls; those taken over in 2010 by the Tea Party.
Nice Photoshops, Pols. Did you enjoy making them?
Are you speaking from first-hand knowledge, Muddy? Is that you?
I'm not supporting the photoshopped pic of Senator Lundberg. While we are on diffenremt ends of the political spectrum that picture is really offensive and it would be unimaginable that he would have a single anti-Semite bone in his body.
You're not fooling anyone.
But you are fooling yourself Moldy. Will you denounce The Daily Stormer people. They have hurt and killed people.
I do think the photoshops of Brauchler and Lundberg into Nazi uniforms are distasteful and inappropriate. Bad joke, if humor is what the intent was. Kindly take them down.
Didn't they say that they received it from The Denver Stormers Book Club?
They're on Twitter.

All these pics are there, and more pics of the guy responsible. Hopefully he gets a camera crew soon…
Thanks. Karl Kroenen is a new definition for "limp dick."
Outing Moderatus??? . . .
. . . those obviously juvenile and amateurish photoshops are just the kind of "limp dick" efforts that you'd except from a childish piece of shit who also tries to sell ridiculous, unattributed Michael Bennett ACA claims on this site!
Along with a cached version of the stormer. No linky for you.
At least, the drek is only available to friends and followers of these hatemongers. Twitter should ban Kroenen's feed, as well.
Moddy – could you be any bigger POS? My comment was made without seeing the update with the second set of pictures. Yes, I find the Lundberg picture, in particular, offensive. While the senator and I may not agree on much of anything politically – he's undeserving of that picture. I'm guessing the folks who created that trash would be much more likely to have a beer with you than me.
Moldy could always go lower. But he's just an empty vessel following his dear leader Trump.
Oh hi Moldy. I did Nazi you coming.
