Trump Vetoes Colorado Water Project, Citing Waste

Description

President Trump vetoes bipartisan water project bill, citing wasteful spending and poor management under Governor Polis. The bill, which would deliver clean drinking water to rural Colorado communities, passed unanimously but was rejected by Trump. Reactions from both sides were swift, with critics labeling the veto as political payback and a revenge tour. The move fits into Trumps growing feud with Polis, particularly over Tina Peters, a former county clerk serving a nine-year sentence for unauthorized access to voting machines. Trump defends Peters and frames the veto as a stand against reckless federal dollars and a push for election integrity and state leadership.
