When kids from "Family City, USA" grow up and want to buy homes of their own:

SLC shooting: The "would-be shooter" was probably just a guy carrying a rifle (which shouldn't be legal but is), and a trigger-happy ex-military "safety volunteer" (they've stopped calling him a "peacekeeper") shot him and a bystander, who died. The problem is guns and the people who love them.

The last time a Senator from Utah made moves like the ones Mike Lee is, 100 tribes were terminated and 1.3 million acres of land were stolen. We shouldn’t see this as anything less than Termination 2.0.

What is common knowledge in your field, but shocks outsiders? The speed limit is the *maximum* allowable speed. To travel below the speed limit is a good thing for society.

Would like to remind Utahn’s if you want to start holding the Utah GOP accountable you gotta help us flip some seats and break the supermajority

Read the scathing letter a senior staffer for Minnesota Sen. Tina Smith sent to Mike Lee’s office, chiding Lee for joking about the slaying of a Minnesota lawmaker and her husband. www.sltrib.com/news/politic...

MN Sen Amy Klobuchar rips Mike Lee for blaming deadly shooting of state lawmakers on “Marxists” and linking him to Gov. Tim Walz. www.sltrib.com/news/politic...

One of the best selfies I've ever seen! So many fun things in a single shot

Utah voters: Are these really your values? Mike Lee is the best you can do?

My husband and I attended the No Kings protest in Salt Lake City today. A shooter opened fire on the peaceful protest. He then tried to hide in the crowd. A hero noticed his backpack, grabbed it, found the gun inside and flagged down law enforcement. Here is the moment. Thank you to this hero!

Salt Lake Tribune reporter Robert Gehrke is an excellent follow—especially for anyone in Utah.

i remember watching the ferguson protest live and seeing cops deliberately escalate when the crowd was entirely peaceful. told a friend; they couldn't believe it. hope people see and believe their own eyes now.

Today is the finale of Art City Days so I haven't been able to attend or see much of today's protests. But the little I have seen has me feeling hyped and heartened!

A lot of my friends, family, colleagues don’t understand why I’m so optimistic about this situation. When the hammer falls, those prepared to fight for this country will outnumber these assholes a few thousand to one, minimum. We’re going to crush them like bugs.

A couple months ago I was teaching 7th graders about the Utah War and Buchanan's posse comitatus. I had a class ask, "Why do we need to learn this?! When is this every going to be relevant?"

On Jun 7, 1918, Frank S Fuller, 30, of Las Vegas, NV was killed in action in France and became the second WWI casualty from Clark County. Fuller was born in Springville, UT, and was denied a military exemption claiming dependent parents. Las Vegas Age article.

My Oma. My German heritage. My painting. I generally avoid talking politics but Trump implying that the German Chancellor would be sad about the end of the Nazis is beyond ignorant.

I wonder what chunk of the population thinks "free money handout" instead of "investment" when they hear the word "grant."

the literal mascot of the whole country is the statue who greets immigrants

2002 me stares in disbelief as I repost this guy, but here we are

"Our country is more divided now than it has *ever* been in the last 250 years." —opening ceremony tonight at the rodeo 😑

In 2021, one of my friends posted on Twitter complaining about how the bike route he had to take to get his COVID-19 vaccine was so dangerous. It was his last tweet. He was killed by a driver while biking just a few hours later. x.com/jimpagels/st...

"Drivers were asked to take a daily photograph of all the insects squished on their license plates...would mean that 228 trillion insects are killed each year on the world’s 36M km of roads." #CarsRuinEverythingAroundMe www.scientificamerican.com/article/road...
