Resistor Vic Podcast

This video is one of the variations of my stump speech. It’s a variation because my district is 17,000 square miles and different things are more important to different regions. Since I can’t reach every town, let alone every person, to deliver my speech, I decided to post it. I also thought that the people across the country who have supported my campaign might be interested in hearing it. I wish...

This is episode 2 of Ty’s Lies (straight from the debate). In this episode we get to watch Ty Winter obfuscate about being a Proud Boy and then outright lie about turning his back on Veterans speaking against the Trump pardons of J6ers. He wasn’t thinking ahead. He should know by now that I will bring the receipts. Vic Meyers for Democracy This is a public episode. If you'd like to discuss this wi...

Ty Winter and I debated a few nights ago. He tried to play down his support for the Jan6 insurrection. I wasn’t having it then and I’m not having it now. I’m struggling to find time to make my regular videos but I had to get this one out of my head. Vic Meyers for Democracy This is a public episode.

Hello. I have been far too busy lately for making videos. But something came up today that required me to shuffle priorities. We have a debate next Tuesday (Sept. 29) and my opponent presented the perfect opportunity for me to try and get into his head. I had to take it. If you want to watch the debate it’s going to be in Hoag Theatre on the PCC campus in Pueblo. If you want to stream it, the only...

I hate not being able to make my usual video schedule. After the election, after I get some sleep, then I plan on making up for lost ground while starting a new motif for my channel. It will be an “A day in the life of…” kind of motif. Since I haven’t had time to make my regular videos, I combined my usual commentary with a campaign update. Ty’s fundraising number for August came as a little bit o...

I said yesterday that the endorsement I was most proud of, so far, was the Colorado AFL-CIO. This endorsement isn’t less or more than that endorsement. It’s different. It’s a special feeling to be standing up for our democracy and knowing that my fellow veterans are knowingly standing with me, and me with them. Long before I decided to run, I made a video discussing the idea that so many veterans...

Did you miss me? The campaign is keeping me pretty darned busy lately. But I found some time to tell you about some things I’m going to tell you about. As well as something I’ve done that I guarantee the local Republican leadership isn’t going to like. In a couple of more days I’ll have a significant update on what the campaign finance filings are showing. Stay tuned and thanks for sticking with m...

In this video I compare how Ty Winter voted on the 8 bills the NFIB used in making their endorsement with how I would have voted. There’s a little bit of irony in there. And I conclude with the endorsement that I think is far more valuable. Vic Meyers for Democracy This is a public episode.

For the record. I’m not calling Ty Winter a Marxist in the traditional sense of Marxism. It’s just that since we don’t know if he’s supporting Victor Marx for governor, and since I’m a little tuckered out…. I thought I would take a little time to have a little fun.

Yes. The Supreme Court decision lifting the stay on Trump’s blatantly unconstitutional executive order prohibiting the post office from delivering ballots to anybody not on the DHS approved list of voters was horrible. That’s not a reason to panic. It’s not a reason to believe that Trump will succeed in preventing millions of American’s from casting their ballots this year or next. It is a reason...

There is a real center of American political opinions. What we are continuously being told is the center, is not the center. The center is where most of us are at and what the pundits and politicians call the center is where they want us to be. Vic Meyers for Democracy This is a public episode.

Athena decided to help me provide an update on the campaign. We have our signs. We’re running ads on FB, IG, and YouTube. The expensive part, mail and text, is about to hit and we don’t quite have what we need. I also threw in a reminder about what kind of person I’m running against. Here’s a shortcut to the donate button on my website: Vic Meyers for Democracy This is a public episode. If you'd l...

I was planning on transitioning my campaign messaging away from Ty Winter and focus it on me and my platform. Then life happened and I had to do another one. Next up will be a campaign update. Spoiler alert, while we’re doing really well, I’m going to have to raise at least $30k. My update will explain it all. Vic Meyers for Democracy This is a public episode.

Sometimes I make a video that may or may not be timely. Sometimes I just have to get a thought out of my head. Personally, I think this one is timely as long as Trump is in office. But others might think I’m rehashing old news. At the end of the day, I got it out of my head. When is the last time Trump put America first? This is a public episode.

Colorado already has one of the safest and most secure election systems in America. But is it strong enough to withstand unconstitutional interference from the federal government? Both Colorado Republicans and Democrats say our elections need to be protected or strengthened. I agree. That’s why, when elected, I’ll introduce the Colorado Election Protection Act. Here’s how it works, and why I think...

Politicians say a lot of things about supporting rural communities. Their voting records tell us what they actually do. Colorado’s Healthy School Meals for All program is bringing funding to 23 of the 31 school districts in House District 47, including money that helps schools purchase food from local farmers and ranchers. It took a series of six bills over four years to make this happen. Rep. Ty...

I recently watched my State Representative tell the La Junta, CO city council about his efforts in the legislature this year. One of the things he brought up was the bill he proposed about nuclear power. He didn’t tell them that his bill failed. He did tell them that it was about the possibility of having a small modular reactor in our district some day. Unfortunately for him, I’m very familiar wi...

Sometimes its not amazing but sickening to see how far politicians will go to make their PACMasters happy. Ironically, in this case, doing so goes against what's best for the constituency this politicians is supposedly a champion for. In this video I expose his allegiance to the Big 4 corporate meatpackers that make life hard for family ranchers. I also give an example of how I'll represent them b...

Why are politicians always trying to paint billionaires as the heroes of the American economy? They want us to forget that all of the rules are written to the benefit of corporations first. One of the rules that is going to cost average Americans the most over the coming years is the 'just and reasonable' standard of the federal regulatory commission. This video gives two stark examples of how. Vi...

I've said it before and I'll say it again. I'm not a Schumer Democrat. I fight back! Ty wants to go trumpian on me for exposing his horrendous voting record in an ad. He probably expected me to cower down like Dems so often do. But this is a new day for Democrats. There are more and more of us fighting instead of cowering. Unfortunately, fighting is expensive.

This isn’t the first video I’ve made about confirmation hearings. With this one, I’m hoping to help people understand why it’s so important for the Democrats to take back the Senate.

It looks like the insult/scare tactic de jour for the Republicans this year is going to be to call every Democrat a communist. It took them a minute to figure out that calling us socialists just doesn’t have the punch that it used to. So communist it is. I don’t know about you, but I’ve been hearing this garbage all of my life and it’s starting to get old. So I decided to point a few things out. I...

A single headline made me stop. Not because of what happened, but because of how the story was framed. This isn’t a discussion about whether Democrats should criticize Republicans. That’s politics, especially during an election year. What caught my attention was the subtle message I think the headline sends before anyone has even read the article. Am I making too much out of a little ‘ol headline?...

More and more Trump supporters are beginning to see the fallacy of supporting him. That got me to thinking, what if I could help them climb over that fence and get back on the right side of history. I laid the groundwork by discussing his planned television appearance tomorrow night. Then I gave them a way to listen to it that just might, if they try it, help them come back into the light. This is...

The company store didn’t disappear. It evolved. Colorado had a chance to require large employers to either provide affordable healthcare or contribute toward the Medicaid costs created when their employees need public assistance. Ty Winter voted against that bill. This isn’t just about healthcare. It’s about whether taxpayers should continue subsidizing profitable corporations while working famili...
