The Denver International Airport Scandal [Page Break Fixed!]

Democrats cheat.

Have I mentioned that here? I think I have; I think about 500 times since October, 2026. For example, there is this recent scandal out of Denver, where the Rocky Mountain High makes people woke and unethical, apparently.

The Denver City Council voted overwhelmingly against a lease for Key Lime Air last December after learning the charter airline had contracted with federal immigration authorities to transport illegal immigrant detainees. Of course Key Lime had to be punished for working with ICE to, you know, enforce that law thingy. How dare they?

That vote created a problem, however: it violated the law. Federal Aviation Administration rules bar cities from treating airlines unequally based on political grounds or any other reason. The council’s pro-illegal immigration action put $90 million in federal grant funding for the airport in jeopardy. According to multiple sources, City Attorney Miko Brown attended a meeting last January 6 with airport and Mayor’s Office officials including airport Chief Executive Phil Washington, airport attorney Everett Martinez, the mayor’s interim chief of staff Emily Garnett, and other senior airport and mayoral staff. They agreed on a cover-up plan that involved concocting an investigation into the airline’s safety record, so that could be cited as the reason for denying the lease, thus preserving the $90 million grant.

Imagine: not a single official in the room had the integrity to say, “Hey, we can’t do this. It’s wrong!” Huh. I wonder why…

It is a rhetorical question.

Ah, but when Martinez was later placed on administrative leave, he filed a federal lawsuit against the city and spilled the metaphorical beans. The suit alleges that Brown suggested at the January meeting that Denver International Airport investigate Key Lime Air’s safety record. (Martinez could justify revealing in his suit what would otherwise be a breach of lawyer-client confidentiality by citing the crime-fraud exception, although in my view it doesn’t excuse his participation in the meeting.)

  1. Is it unethical to thoroughly enjoy every flippin’ moment of Lefty willingly inserting their collective t!t into the ringer, and getting caught…?

    PWS

  2. As unethical, immoral and/or illegal as this is, how many will lose their job or be voted out of office? Every one of these jackals should be booted.

    • As I understand conspiracies, once the group agrees on a plan and any one of them takes any step toward the goal of the conspiracy, the only way someone can escape is to notify law enforcement of the whole thing. It does not sound like anyone did the latter. It sounds like nothing happened to further the conspiracy, and only the Martinez guy did anything to expose it. He only did it to save his own skin in another matter, not because he thought it a bad idea….
