Victor Marx, the Republican nominee for governor of Colorado, has come under scrutiny for his role as the former chair of All Things Possible (ATP), an anti-sex-trafficking ministry. Reports indicate that the organization has provided funding for surveillance equipment and salaries for law enforcement agencies outside of Colorado. Additionally, the ministry has utilized private security and intelligence contractors to conduct its operations.

Critics of the organization have raised concerns regarding the nature of its activities, describing the ministry as a potentially dangerous operation. The group is reportedly part of a wider network of self-appointed rescue organizations, several of which have faced controversy regarding their methods and leadership. Marx served as the chair of the ministry until he launched his gubernatorial campaign in October. While the ministry characterizes its work as essential anti-trafficking efforts, observers have questioned the lack of oversight and the involvement of private intelligence entities in what are traditionally public law enforcement functions. The campaign has not yet provided a detailed public response to the specific allegations regarding the ministry’s operational structure or its connections to other controversial groups.
