Garbo: Sheriffs must always be elected to defend liberty and preserve the Constitution

By C. J. Garbo | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice Few offices in American governance embody the spirit of freedom and self-governance as profoundly as that of the county sheriff. Rooted in centuries of tradition and safeguarded by constitutional principles, the elected sheriff stands as one of the most powerful and accountable defenders of liberty in the United States. In Colorado, this role carries even greater significance, as the state’s history and values are deeply tied to independence, local control and resistance to government overreach. The idea of appointing sheriffs — rather than electing them — is not only an affront to these principles, it is a direct threat to the constitutional freedoms that this office was designed to protect. To fully appreciate why sheriffs ...

Garbo: Woman burned alive on NYC subway, the deadly consequences of open borders and sanctuary policies

By C. J. Garbo | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice A woman was burned alive in one of the most horrific acts of violence imaginable — set on fire as she slept in a New York City subway station, dying a slow and agonizing death as her attacker stood by and watched. This is not just a tragic story. It is a searing indictment of the failed policies that enabled this crime to occur in the first place. The suspect, now identified as an illegal immigrant from Guatemala — previously deported but re-entered illegally — should never have been here. Yet, because of weak immigration enforcement, sanctuary city protections and an unsecured border, he was free to roam our streets and commit this unspeakable act. While the media celebrates the use of surveillance technology in his app...

Garbo: The people’s will to stand tall against crime manifested in JD23

By C. J. Garbo | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice In an era when too many jurisdictions have abandoned the very principles that uphold civilized society, the 23rd Judicial District (JD23) emerges as a bastion of bold, unified leadership. Under the steady hand of District Attorney George Brauchler and the resolute support of Douglas, Elbert and Lincoln County officials, this district has sent a clear and unwavering message: criminals will find no haven here. The launch of JD23 represents more than just a reorganization of judicial boundaries; it is the realization of a community’s demand for governance rooted in justice, accountability and respect for its citizens. These counties have made it clear that apathy toward criminal behavior and anti-law enforcement rhetoric have no...

Garbo: How Castle Rock is leading the charge on Denver’s migration crisis  

By C. J. Garbo | Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice The Dec. 4 article from the Castle Rock News-Press covering Castle Rock's support for President Trump's deportation plans reports on how the town is addressing a critical issue that challenges us to confront the real-life consequences of moral relativism and virtue signaling in border policy. A clear, enforceable immigration system is not merely a political preference but a moral imperative with direct implications for human lives and national security. Morality is not subjective; it is grounded in universal principles such as justice, order, and the protection of life. Abandoning border enforcement under the guise of compassion is not virtuous - it invites chaos. Failing to uphold the rule of law emboldens human tra...

Garbo: The aftermath of COVID-19, a profound failure of leadership, media and accountability

By C. J. Garbo | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice The House Oversight & Accountability Committee’s After-Action Review of the COVID-19 pandemic, released on Dec. 2, presents a scathing indictment of the government’s, media’s and political organizations’ handling of the crisis. It exposes systemic failures, deceptions and outright betrayals that exacerbated the suffering of millions. This report not only lays bare the consequences of incompetence and political agendas but also raises the unsettling question: Did fear and ignorance drive this failure, or was it a calculated assault on the American people? The revelation that COVID-19 most likely originated from a lab in Wuhan, China, should shake the very foundations of public trust in our institutions. For years, the medi...

Garbo: Hunter Biden’s pardon is the apex of corruption

By C. J. Garbo | Guest Columnist, Rocky Mountain Voice President Joe Biden’s sweeping pardon of his son, Hunter Biden, covering all crimes committed or potentially committed between 2014 and 2024, represents not only a historic abuse of power but a grave affront to the principles of justice and democracy. It encapsulates years of suspicion and mounting evidence of corruption at the highest levels, justifying the worst fears of conservatives and others whose voices were silenced or dismissed by a complicit media. This pardon cannot be viewed in isolation; it is part of a larger web of criminality, collusion and a concerted effort to suppress dissent, manipulate public opinion and shield the Biden family from accountability. The implications are dire, and the actions taken by Presid...
