Sorry. Reality is I'm not sorry this spineless cretin is no longer on the planet and having a voice in Congress. AMF. Now do Mitch. And that other guy, for that matter. USA! USA!

ICE OUT rally in front of the proposed detention center in Salt Lake this morning. Good crowd given the distant location and the heat. This is taken from the side of the street with the shade where people stood. This great activist made this great dress.

🔥 Ukrainian Fire Point drones just torched the Omsk oil refinery — Russia’s last undamaged one. That’s 1,600 miles deep into Russia. Putin’s “invincible” empire is getting absolutely cooked from farther away than most Russians have ever traveled. #SlavaUkraïni 🇺🇦

“What kind of man would cheat at this golf?” 😂

Racists shouting hate speech through the streets get a police escort. A patriot protesting fascism gets arrested. 400 cowards calling themselves patriots while hiding their identity. 1 patriot calling out fascism in full military uniform.

What a picture from cheney orr of @reuters.com — a Black woman on a train surrounded by masked white supremacists, emboldened in Trump’s America. One for the history books.

Today's cartoon by Nick Anderson. "Donald Trump spent nearly $15 million to turn the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool “American Flag Blue.” Within days, it turned green. "If that sounds familiar, it’s because it perfectly summarizes the Trump presidency."

This is classy, beautiful First Lady not a paid prostitute from Russia.

Happy Barack Obama Appreciation Day! When we still had class in the White House and other nations respected us. No daily chaos.

June 6, 1944. These brave soldiers saved the world from fascism. Time for us to remember their courage, and do it again.

37 years ago. What courage! Do WE have that kind of courage?

Just so we're clear, "The Slickrock Stranger" will NOT be appearing at the Freedom 250 Great American State Fair in Washington D.C. You just can't make this stuff up... From CNN.... "many of (the artists who canceled) share the same booking agent in Jeff Epstein of Universal Attractions."

LET'S NOT FORGET! While we honor our departed soldiers, Utah Senator Dan McCay tried to wipe out property tax relief for over 30,500 households of disabled veterans in Utah this past session, not to mention property tax and rent relief for veterans who are not disabled or active duty. VOTE HIM OUT!

The repost below is a commentary from Zak Podmore, one of the most knowledgible writers on water issues in the southwest. READ HIS BOOK! Also worth following, Jonathan Thompson at The Land Desk bsky.app/profile/land... and Morgan Sjogren bsky.app/profile/morg... and of course, utahrivers.org

It’s possible for decision makers to hide behind competing narratives because water issues are so complicated. But after 15 years of reporting on water in the Southwest, much of the discussion appears to me as delusional." —  @zakpodmore.bsky.social www.cityweekly.net/news/lake-po...

This is amazing - @kevinolearytv 🤡 is fearmongering about Chinese agents opposing his giant Utah data center… but it’s 2 young local girls in Utah who hilariously call him (and his “dumbass hat”) out👇🏽 Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DYU074V...

Canadian wannabe-billionaire Kevin O'Leary thinks he can profit off polluting our state and skyrocketing Utahns' energy bills. He's dead wrong. I'm the only candidate in this race calling for a national data center moratorium. Let's send a real progressive to Congress and kick Kevin out of Utah.

A physics professor at USU explained that the 9 GW needed to power the data center will produce an additional 7-8 GW of waste heat, adding up to a 16 GW total thermal load. It’s the “equivalent of about 23 atom bombs worth of energy dumped into this local environment every single day.”

A week after a powerful state authority chaired by Utah Senate President Stuart Adams approved a 40,000-acre data center project, five donors with business before the same authority dropped $135,000 into a PAC he controls. All on the same day. Read more: utahpolitics.news/stuart-adams...

Amazon, Meta, and Microsoft are all planning huge layoffs. Amazon got $17.5B in federal tax breaks last year. Jeff Bezos is worth $271B. Meta saved $13.7B in taxes. Mark Zuckerberg is worth $231B. Microsoft saved $12.5B last year. Its CEO is worth $1.3B. This is what a rigged economy looks like.

Right now, hundreds of people in immigration detention in AZ have filed habeas corpus petitions, which are legal challenges to unlawful detention. For many, it's now the only path to freedom from detention. But there’s a barrier that can stop them before they even begin: a $5 filing fee.

A win! A judge just blocked the Trump admin from strangling hundreds of wind and solar projects nationwide. Chief Judge Denise Casper issued a preliminary injunction, striking down a policy that required every wind and solar project to get personal sign-off from Interior Secretary Doug Burgum.

I was singing Woody Guthrie's "All You Fascists Bound To Lose" on the porch today. After singing the verse I wrote about JD Vance, I realized the guy who is leading negotiations with Iran, whom we'll turn to for a report, once told us Haitians were eating cats and dogs in Springfield,Ohio. Bizarre.
