True story: I was sitting in the Cultural Hall waiting for the funeral for my former bishop to start when Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood walked up the isle to sit in the back of the hall. The deceased was very good friends with Garth, and their charities had collaborated for 3 decades.

Folks: the BigGiantSign companies keep track of how many times you talk about their BigGiantSigns paying tribute to their dead wife/mother. They then use those social media mentions in their marketing to show that people pay attention to BigGiantSigns. Stop promoting BigGiantSigns.

Wow.

This is the same track that some are using against Ben McAdams (who I don’t support for other reasons). They claim he was received over $500,000 from AIPAC, when he has received $0 from AIPAC, $5k from another pro-Jewish PAC (in 2020), and $500,000 from people who also donated to pro-Jewish causes.

This is the opposite of Disagree Better. But it’s in line with who the real Spencer Cox has become.

This is 31 cents higher than it was 72 hours ago. It is $1.60 more than it was on February 26. As an Uber Driver, I buy 7-10+ gallons of gas a day, somewhere around 40+ gallons a week. Fares aren’t any higher than they were in February. That’s a significant amount of money every month.

This is part of why I maintain the @fox13news.bsky.social is the best station for local political news.

I don’t care that this was when he was in his 20’s. He’s only in his 30’s. Chalking this up to “young and dumb” is the same as excusing “locker room talk.” This is abhorrent. Do you know how you lose a D+24 seat? By the RCCC running non-stop ads featuring the posts linked in the article. /1

Oh, this is good. Idaho passed a bill banning local cities from flying the Pride flag. So the cities decided to wrap the poles themselves in pride colors. This is amazing.

I saw two Blackhawks do a flyover up Main Street and bank over the Utah Capitol about 2:30 this afternoon, about the time that the march was starting at Washington Square.

Election Night, 2012. Hanging out at the election night party with my laptop to look up results. Woman keeps coming up asking for result updates, making small talk, offering to buy me a drink. Even invited me to an event later in the week. 3 years later, I randomly realized I was being flirted.

“I always thought he was weak on security” which is why I appointed him to be Director of Counterterrorism. Because the last thing you need in that job is someone strong on security. What a dumbass.

Tonight’s Mammoth game is in the same arena the Jazz played in last night. Tonight’s Jazz game is in the same arena the Mammoth played in on Tuesday. #takenote #tusksup

Brave Utahns Rapid Response Network (BURRN) is holding events around the state to help people whose names have shown up as signing the Prop 4 repeal petition to remove their signature. Please check burrn.org/signature-se... to make sure your name isn’t on the list. #utpol #utdem

The RNC, Utahns for Representative Government, and Utah Republican Party are going to soon discover that Utah has not only civil but criminal penalties for Defamation of Character. #utpol

Ted Nugent didn’t just sign about pedophilia. He has openly admitted to multiple sexual relationships with girls. Everyone, especially politicians, ESPECIALLY REPUBLICANS IN 2026 should have been running far away from him. Yet they welcomed him with open arms. #utpol #utgop #ProtectChildren

The @utahgop.bsky.social is so desperate to repeal Prop 4 so they can gerrymander that they are having admitted pedophile Ted Nugent collect signatures them. #familyvalues anyone? #protectthechildren #utpol

This reminds me of when the Jazz had an extended layover in New York City (playing the Knicks and Nets with several off day in between) and were staying in Little Italy. Most of the players went to one of the many authentic Italian restaurants near the hotel. One player went to Olive Garden.

Woah former Utah Economic Development President Scott Cuthbertson who lost to Dem Kathleen Riebe in 2024 in a Senate run left the Utah GOP

We already have this. It’s called the Utah Supreme Court. Article VIII of the Utah Constitution addresses this. It would save the Legislature a lot of time if they bothered to read the Constitution and Laws of Utah. #utpol

Why is Border Patrol even in South Minneapolis? The shooting was 130 miles from Lake Superior and over 200 Miles from the Canadian border.

"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

However is in charge of the sound at the State of the State should be fired tomorrow. This is horrible. Governor Cox sounds like he is in to Rotunda. #utpol

Did Pete Ricketts just spend money on a national TV ad declaring him “our Senator” during the Utah-Nebraska game? Or was it a local ad, and he got the wrong home team market? Either way, doesn’t sound very fiscally conservative. If he blows campaign cash like that, how does he spend taxpayer money

This is the type of person that @utahgop hired to fight voters and give more control to the Utah Government. She was mad that I recorded her, and that I got her kicked out of the gas station (video to come) #utpol #utgop #dontsign

I met a lot of Somalian refugees when I lived in Minnesota. Amazing that their being there is the fault of Gov Walz and Pres Obama, since I was there in 1999, when Jesse Ventura and Bill Clinton were Gov/Pres.

I haven’t had any encounters with the petition gatherers yet, but given how uninformed they seem to be based on accounts I’ve heard, this makes sense. #utpol www.reddit.com/r/Utah/s/1JW...

The Utah Legislature keeps trying to tell you that this isn’t a Gerrymandered map. This is from the map that Judge Gibson threw out last month. The same map that the Legislature’s out of state map-drawer testified he illegally used partisan data to draw. Don’t let the Legislature lie to you.

Representative Romero always has the best quotes.

Just a reminder that this is the PAC that’s been pushing the Ben McAdams for the past week+. Salt Lake County needs a Democratic candidate that represents Salt Lake County, not AL, CO, CT, MA, NY, and SC. #utpol source: www.welcome.team

Did James Donald Bowman just link ibuprofen use to obesity? We may have a moron as President, but the VP may be an even bigger moron.

I’m working on my list of what I want “my” candidate to look like, and then I’ll come up with a list of who fits those criteria. But I’m not going to lie — Sen Riebe checks a lot of those boxes. #utpol

Ontario running their Ronald Regan ad during the 7th Inning Stretch of Game 1 of the World Series is a masterful way to mock America’s Mussolini.

If you’re gambling on Toronto Rangers games, you’re a sucker.

Remember when a US Senator made fun of the Murder and attempted murder of Minnesota Legislators? I wish I could remember who that was…..

Chair King’s statement on the passing of LDS Church President Russell M. Nelson.

6-8 people shot this morning at an LDS Church near Flint, Michigan.

George didn’t just hang around GOP events. Had a couple of run-ins with the guy at several #utdem conventions over the years.

Often when a famous person does, there are lots of quotes from that person floating around the internet. However, the only people I see quoting Charlie Kirk are people opposed to him. Lots of people talking about him, nobody actually sharing his words. I wonder why. #IknowWhy

I’ve been away most of the day. Did I really see video of Governor “meh, politics are too divisive” Cox “carrying” the casket of one of the most divisive and hateful social media influencers? It looked like him standing next to VP James Donald “Trump is Hitler” Bowman.

When I saw the picture if him sitting on the ground in cuffs, I thought it looked like George. I had to help escort him out of the 2008 Democratic State Convention. Also seems like we had a small issue with him in 2016 as well. Also saw him at an event SarahPalin was speaking at in 09 at DeltaCenter

Gun violence is never the answer. However, I will point out that state law forbids UVU from prohibiting weapons. Meanwhile, the big conservative private school down the road prohibits guns on campus.

Let’s ignore the family relations of the perpetrator for a minute: This change in the law is horrible. There is a huge difference between an 18 year old and a 13 year old. Whether the 18 year old is in high school or not. The 13 year old is not in a position to consent. They aren’t classmates.

The key line comes at the end: “Ideally, Lee would act like a United States senator, but if that’s asking too much, the Utah Republican could at least try acting like a functioning adult with a modicum of critical thinking skills.” #utpol #resignmikelee

If profits were high enough that companies can eat the costs of tariffs without passing those costs on to consumers, then that shows profits were very high, which is part of the reason inflation is so high. Also, doesn’t smaller profits hurt businesses, especially small businesses?

Somewhere, (I hope I still) have a small coaster made from scrap stone from the St Paul MN Temple, which was a gift from my mission President just before the dedication. But this seems so much like priest craft. You can buy anything in this world with money.

My “ministering brother” (what we used to call Home Teacher) posted several verses from Mosiah (in the Book of Mormon) about evil kings. It’s scary how accurate it is to America in 2025.

If President Trump sent the National Guard to LA to stop the violence, and the violence has increased exponentially since their arrival, doesn’t this mean yet another failure by Donald Trump. #TrumpFails

One of these years, I’m going to file to run for something just to get my Archie Williams 5 minutes on the microphone. Because I can tell you the problems the party has, and it isn’t what Archie says it is.

Are the Diamondbacks playing the Yankees or the National League? Great job KSL.
