So according to the WSJ a US Senator conspired with another country to manipulate the US into starting a war, am I getting this right

At Largest ICE Detention Camp, Staff Bet on Detainee Suicides, AP Reports Camp East Montana has received several 911 calls in the span of five months about immigrants trying to harm themselves.

Staff at the nation’s largest Immigration and Customs Enforcement detention facility have placed bets on which detainee will be the next to die by suicide, according to new reporting from the Associated Press based on 911 calls and detainee accounts.

The Utah legislature tried more last-minute shenanigans to split Salt Lake County (the main Dem county in the state) but failed by 5 seconds. Karma

Of course he did. Changing the rules while they’re playing the game and losing. Worse than toddlers

Doing shady stuff right before the end of the session, when nobody’s watching. Very on brand for the Utah legislature

Ben Winslow is one of the hardest working local political journalists and reads every bill that gets filed — which is a feat that not even most legislators can claim.

Which part was his favorite, I wonder? The part where he signed a bunch of bills to weaken the judiciary despite past promises not to? Or the bill passed that would gut environmental protections for Utahns? Maybe the continued anti-trans legislation? (So much hatred directed against so few and all)

Utah is not faring much better: We only have 28 affordable and available rental homes per 100 extremely low income renter household

So, he's going to split the MAGA vote when another Republican does run? What's the strategy here 🤨

And also,

That ship did get unstuck.

"The United States government made a promise over 13 years ago... Straightforward, a promise."

Despite keeping their end of the bargain, Dreamers are now being swept up in this administration's mass deportation campaign.

Watch Sen. @padilla.senate.gov’s remarks on the government's broken promise.

People understanding second-order effects challenge level impossible.

I was interested in going to his other restaurant, Per Se, in New York City, but I may have to prioritize La Bernadin instead

Tribune Editorial: If masks are good enough for ICE, they are good enough for the people “If Utah lawmakers aren’t going to make federal goons acting under color of law show their faces, they should give the people standing up for their, and everyone’s, constitutional rights the same prot...

In Utah, GOP lawmakers are on track to pass a law banning masks at protests, and in the same session blocked a bill that would have banned law enforcement from wearing masks to conceal their identity.

This Utahn planned to hold an anti-ICE protest. Her city told her she’d need to pay $2K in police fees. Legal experts say a Utah city's attempt to charge a resident $2,000 in police fees to hold a protest was unconstitutional.

What a waste of taxpayer money when we all know the answer already. This is just an excuse to try to shape the outcome of the study and revive this legislation in future years.

Voices: Utah cities are making it harder for builders like me to create affordable housing “When local policy restricts entry-level supply, it limits not just housing choices but wealth-building opportunities for the next generation,” writes Morgan Cox, the CEO of J Thomas Homes, in an op-ed.

The Most Chilling Detail in the U.S. Attack on an Iranian Naval Ship The Iranian warship was taking part in an international exercise with many other countries—including the United States.

This is a chilling crime. A shame on our country. The Iranian ship was unarmed. The US knew this. The sailors were murdered by our navy, and the survivors were left to die at sea.

Fair point 🫠

This guy

‘I didn’t really understand what was going on:’ Despite visa approval, Utah resident was detained by ICE after court hearing ICE arrested a 21-year-old man after a court hearing in Utah. His next 11 days were "terrible."

(Quote by James Frick)

The same legislature that is cutting funding is telling schools they need to solve the decline in early literacy, or they are going to start holding kids back who don't meet certain metrics by third grade.

"Don't tell me what your priorities are. Show me your budget and I'll tell you what they are"

They killed 180 children and their teachers in a double-tap strike on a school. The girls were 7 to 12 years old.

It is so damning of US news media that so many outlets refuse to just straight up say that Senator Tim Sheehy assaulted an activist.

He did not "help" Capitol police. They did not need his help. He wanted to assault the guy and did. He should resign.

The legislature has asked schools to make sweeping 5% across-the-board budget cuts, just so they can approve a $20/year tax cut for most families

The Utah state legislature is a poor steward of public finances. Several programs are being cut this year, more are on the docket for cuts in the coming year, and several were cut last year. But we've got the budget for approximately $500 million cumulatively in annual tax cuts over recent years.

Yup 🙃
