A PHYSICIANS GROUP FILES A GRIEVANCE OVER RACE BASED PROGRAMS And specifically at the University of Connecticut where they advertise a medical externship as a "pipeline for students of color". I've got Dr. Kurt Miceli on at 2:30 to talk about the complaint filed by the group he's with Do No Harm, which you can read here. Diversity as a primary goal is not ideal, especially in medicine. I want a great doctor of any color, not a doctor of color who may or may or may not be great.

THE FORWARD PARTY IS OFFERING ALTERNATIVES But what are they all about? Today I've got Dave Ryan on from the Forward Party here in Colorado (find their website here) on to discuss the platform and why they feel like they are a good choice in today's era where the two biggest parties may not feel right for some. Find out the full platform of the national party here, I'll chat with Dave at 1.

FUTURIST THOMAS FREY TODAY AT 1 And we're talking about the recently signed Genius Act- the first comprehensive federal framework for stablecoin regulation. No longer experimental or unregulated, stablecoins gained legitimacy as essential components of the American monetary system. The Federal Reserve now oversees large issuers while providing access to master accounts that enable large-scale operations. A senior Treasury official noted that stablecoin growth will have “significant impact on the dominance of the US dollar and demand for US debt.”" So what does that mean? I have no clue but Thomas does. Read his column on it here.

DID TRUMP JUST TURN ON BIG PHARMA? I saw the post President Trump sent out this past weekend that seemed in my view to be challenging Pfizer on what information they showed HIM when he was President and what they did NOT show anyone about the vaccines.My pal David Strom writes about this here, and does so well. What does this mean for Pfizer? I hope a lot, because I idiotically trusted that they would release COMPLETE information about the vaccines I went on to recommend (but now will not get or recommend) and it would be nice to hold them accountable. I'm talking to David about this at 1pm.

WANT TO SUPPORT LAW ENFORCEMENT DOGS? This weekend is the Annual Rex Run for Pawsitivity in Arapahoe County and it's a super event that raises money for all manner of stuff to support the hard working dogs of law enforcement.

WHY ARE THEIR RACIAL PREFERENCES IN THE DPS CONTRACT? I've got Erin Lee from Protect Kids Colorado on the show at 12:30 to discuss the new union contract that requires racial preferences in hiring and training and is clearly in violation of edicts handed down by the Trump administration. Read more about that here. And then there's this, where Denver Public Schools is also changing more bathrooms to "all gender" bathrooms in defiance of the order as well. The Trump admin is already aware of the latter as you can see below. Lots to chat about today.

WEATHER WEDNESDAY TODAY And we'll find out when this glorious cooldown will be over for that last blast of summer (or maybe not) with Fox 31's meteorologist Dave Fraser at 12:30THE NOT SO SPECIAL SESSION IS OVER And Democrats, instead of looking at cutting anything, just raised taxes on businesses instead. And I say that because not a single Republican voted to raise taxes on small business, and every bill brought forth by Republicans was killed on the very first day of the session. So what happened? The Denver Gazette has this wrap up:Five tax bills passed along party-lines in both chambers, offered by the majority Democrats in the House. The measures are designed to raise general fund revenue to cover a portion of the shortfall. The fiscal notes said they could raise as much as $253.2 million. But the rest is now up to Gov. Jared Polis, who will present a spending reduction plan to the Joint Budget Committee on Thursday afternoon that could cover another third of the shortfall. The state's general fund rese
