DAVIS: In Memory of a Good Woman

2 weeks ago | coloradotimesrecorder.com | Logan Davis

A good woman passed away last week. Ruth Eggenburger was 93 years-old when she departed this world from a Texarkana hospice. Right until the end, she never let anyone tell her what she couldn’t do — especially if their reason was that she was a woman. In fact, they’d be lucky to live long after such a suggestion. She was my grandmother, and she was the first liberal I ever knew. Liberalism isn’t in the water where my Mama Ruth is from.

Last month, supporters of a would-be charter school made their case to the Montrose County School Board, hoping to receive an official charter which would allow it to open in the district. The meeting on May 20 was not the first time the leaders of Montrose Classical Academy sat before the county school board to discuss their charter application: this whole saga played out last year as well, and ended with the school board rejecting the classical school’s charter application.

Andrew Wommack has not been shy about his desire to take over Woodland Park, the small Teller County town where his global ministry has its headquarters. Ever since the prosperity gospel minister exhorted his followers to conquer the town in 2021, they have been working to do so. First, they took control of the local school board.

About ten years ago, when I was working in the Colorado legislature, one of my brothers made an observation. “All of the craziest people in the country are state legislators,” he said. He didn’t mean that all state legislators are crazy, or that all crazy people are state legislators, but that each legislature has among its ranks a handful of its state’s craziest citizens.
DAVIS: Bullying Kids is Bad Politics

I want you to imagine for a moment that you’re back in high school. You were a child pretty recently and you’ll be an adult pretty soon, but for now, things are weird. Your body and brain are both changing, you smell weird sometimes. You’re in the years-long process of both creation and discovery, carving your own identity out of a formless block of stone, trying to separate what you really like from what you think it would be cool to be seen as liking.
Opinion: The Business Plot, and the first time fascism came to America

1 month ago | realvail.com | Logan Davis

This Monday marked the 80th anniversary of Benito Mussolini’s last journey: from a village on the shores of Lake Como, where he had been held since his capture the day before, to a farmhouse a little ways to the north, where partisans positioned him in front of a wall and executed him by gunfire. When Adolf Hitler took his own life in a Berlin bunker two days later, it became clear that the first fascist era had come to a sudden, bloody, and well-deserved end.

Last week, dozens of Colorado school board members and administrators issued an open letter to the Colorado High School Activities Association (CHSAA), making what they called “an urgent and resolute demand” that the organization “immediately adopt rules” to ban trans-identifying teens from participating in high school athletics in Colorado.
DAVIS: Allies in Unexpected Places

Schlepping my way across the campus of Colorado Christian University on Monday towards the lecture hall I had chosen as my destination, I thought I had a pretty good idea of what to expect. When the email landed in my inbox last week advertising the lecture “Christian Nationalism: Good or Bad?” hosted by the school’s think tank, the Centennial Institute, my interest was immediately piqued.

This story has been republished in light of its recognition by the Society of Professional Journalists. None of them realized they were in a cult until it was too late. It started in late 1993 as a Bible study group composed of students from Messiah College in Pennsylvania. By the time it shattered in February of 1997, most of the group’s members had lost their individual identities and many of their worldly possessions. Some had lost their marriages.
