Bob Loevy -- Legendary Colorado College Political Science Professor

Episode 104 is packed with analysis of right-wing anti-Semitism flowing through Denver Trump Radio and the mouths of hosts and guest GOP officials. We talk Jan6 Committee developments and Cippollone and Hutchinson testimony. https://coloradosun.com/2022/07/05/silverman-hutchinson-trump-opinion/




During these intense political times, we gain wisdom from Gazette columnist Bob Loevy, who long-taught political science at The Colorado College in Colorado Springs. He was Liz Cheney’s professor and speaks about how the Cheney family is connected to host’s alma mater. https://gazette.com/news/liz-cheneys-colorado-college-education-led-to-gop-showdown-bob-loevy/article_2f2af52e-b274-11eb-b1b3-d775e1294b52.html



Professor Loevy was raised in Baltimore where he worked as a reporter for city’s major newspaper from 1957 – 1963 with a focus on the civil rights movement roiling Maryland and America. He then worked for prominent California Republican US Senator Thomas Kuchel in critical year of 1964 when Civil Rights Act passed. https://www.coloradopolitics.com/opinion/loevy-reporting-on-the-1960s-civil-rights-movement/article_28ef4bd0-8620-11ec-a077-efbbf76134d2.html



Along the way, Loevy worked for, and got to know, Spiro “Ted” Agnew. The stories keep coming as Professor Loevy had a remarkable string of associations with major historical events and public figures. That makes sense when you consider his mother’s great-great-great grandfather was Archibald Williams, good friend with Abe Lincoln. https://faculty1.coloradocollege.edu/~bloevy/ArchibaldWilliamsBook/welcome.html



A lifelong Republican, Loevy likes the approach now of Cheney and does not countenance Trumpism and/or racism within his Grand Old Party. The grand old days of Colorado College’s political science community still reverberate today. https://faculty1.coloradocollege.edu/~bloevy/home/


Bob Loevy likes politics and wants America to have great politicians. He saw a big red wave coming before the Supreme Court used Dobbs to fire up people angry about the end of Roe v Wade. Listen to his current political prognostications. https://gazette.com/politics/political-wave-watching-in-colorado-bob-loevy/article_91dbe376-c67e-11ec-a9a4-4fae95ead14f.html




Troubadour Dave Gunders delivers again with “Somebody who Knows it All” and discusses highly anticipated testimony of White House Counsel Pat Cippollone in the wake of Cassidy Hutchinson’s bombshell J6 Select Committee hearings. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bimpyWBAiGo
