Colorado’s attorney general is accusing the Trump administration of waging a “revenge campaign” against the state. Democratic Attorney General Phil Weiser said Thursday that the administration is choking off funds and dismantling programs over the state's refusal to free imprisoned elections clerk Tina Peters. Peters was convicted in state court of orchestrating a data breach scheme driven by false claims of fraud in the 2020 election that Trump lost. Federal officials have recently dissolved a climate research lab in Colorado, threatened to cut millions of dollars in transportation money and relocated U.S. Space Command from Colorado Springs to Alabama.
