The Tina Peters saga drags on – Governor Polis says he will not make a decision on clemency for the disgraced elections official until a ruling on her case comes down from Colorado Court of Appeals; not to mention every Democrat in the legislature signed a letter this week urging Polis not to free her. So, will he or won’t he? Politics contributor Adrian Felix joins producer Paul Karolyi and host Bree Davies to discuss Polis’s mixed signals, plus dive into the impending strike at the JBS meatpacking plant, and of course, our wins and fails of the week.

Bree discussed the Racines memorabilia gifted to the Denver Public Library and the update in the Jax Gratton murder case. Paul talked about RTD expanding service for the G and B lines and the loss of the pothos plant at the old Amethyst Coffee. Adrian discussed City Council postponing a vote on the proposed new surveillance camera provider Axon.
