Just a reminder. If you see any Republicans in their early thirties trick or treating in KKK costumes, according to JD Vance, they’re still “a bunch of kids” and you should still give them candy. #Halloween2025

Rand asks an important question. Obviously the answer is Republicans need to do more to boost the bottom line for the corporations and wealthy so the trickle down economics can get to those at the bottom. #utpol

Hey friends. Yes, I did say “we can always point the finger at the other side, and at some point, we have to find an off-ramp, or it's going to get much, much worse,” but obviously I wasn’t saying “we” as in Republicans. #utpol

This was the easy button and a card that has to be played, but damn I wanted to see this go to trial so we could watch his lawyers eviscerate the DOJ puppet counsel.

Q. Will we ever get fair representation in Utah?
A. It depends on what you call "fair representation". When most of the state is blindly following a demented, felon with authoritarian tendencies, it's only fair that they have a congressional delegation that feels the same way.

Q. How is it fair that the #utleg can create boundaries that help them stay in power?
A. The Founding Father's knew power in one individual is dangerous so they created a system where power is concentrated in small number of people who share one brain. It's called a Republic.

Q. Aren't Utah Republicans also running a citizen referendum to repeal the congressional map that they just endorsed three weeks ago?
A. Yes. If it passes, the map they wanted would be put on hold so the 2026 elections would use the gerrymandered maps that Democrats cannot win.

Q. What is this indirect initiative Republicans have started?
A. Republicans believe Prop 4 passed with 51% of voters, but mainly from liberal counties. This indirect initiative allows 4% of Utahns to tell the #utleg to kill Prop 4. Legislators are staying mum on how they'd vote.

Thankfully, we have a much tamer Democratic Party here in Utah. Yes, they can be annoying with their 9th and 9th whale worship, coffee drinking, and demands for Mike Lee to stop being an embarrassment to the state, but at least they aren’t terrorists. #utpol

I spoke with Stuart Adams and Mike Schultz this morning. They're fuming that the courts didn't extend them more time to ignore the independently drawn congressional maps that the #utleg commissioned after Prop 4. #utpol

Before anyone gets over their skis and calls Mitt Romney a liberal Mormon because he referred to himself a “true-blue member,” I can assure you I’ve seen Mitt’s pantry. It’s more than a year’s supply—even if half of it consists of Twinkies. #utpol
