I don’t. I wonder if a reverse google search might help? Or even asking ChatGPT to look for you?

His « deathbed conversion » was controversial and, although he did convert to Catholicism, it’s said the Bible on his bedside table still had the shrink wrap intact. He was a liar and a snake to the bitter end.

In 2023, a program connecting Utah farmers and ranchers to free therapy vouchers was so successful, the federal money ran out in four months.

“I want you to know,” the program director recalled one recipient telling him, “that this saved my life.”

(Published April with @sltrib.com)

Utah Farmers Signed Up for Federally Funded Therapy. Then the Money Stopped.

Farmers are dying by suicide at the third-highest rate by vocation in Utah. But after a federal program offering mental health support ran out of money, the state did not continue it.

This is the GOP ushered in by Lee Atwater — the original over-privileged sneering teenage white boy. He started it, the GOP leadership revelled in it and then they lost control of it.

Remember when Stephen Miller claimed the Chicago apartment raid was on a building “filled with Tren de Aragua terrorists”?

Well, DHS has now dropped the number of alleged TdA members arrested in the building from 2 to 1.

Just one "verified" Tren de Aragua member and one U.S. citizen with an active warrant were among the 37, DHS said, without saying how it had verified that gang affiliation. Others taken that day, the agency said, were "illegal aliens."
