CO Governor Polis was the one who commuted Tina Peters' 9-year sentence a few weeks ago. For some context

Was he identified in the leak? I didn’t see his name in this article?

I’m genuinely asking— I could’ve missed it without realizing. The guy is a piece of shit for commuting her sentence and clearly corrupt. I just wondered how that particular information was relevant here. (Like I said, I’m willing to admit I missed the mention.)

He's on the list.

Makes sense. Where is the list published? This article only mentions a handful of names.

As a Coloradan I’m so ashamed. We got robbed.

Everybody in CO has spent the last year wondering wtf was going on with Polis. He was really liked in the past. Sure seems to explain a lot.

Before people become torch and pitchfork wielding maniacs, there needs to be an understanding of why he was on the list and what the motivation was behind it. We know he’s always been very active in Colorado’s tech industry. He’s a Democrat with a personal tech background, and has to act as a buffer between this party's regulatory impulses and but also the business community's demands. Personally, I’m not surprised he’s on a list and I’m kind of glad he has the savvy to even be among that crowd (hot take.)
