Republicans have advanced a bill to pack Utah’s Supreme Court in response to its rulings against their congressional gerrymander.
It fits into a wider pattern of Republican court-packing: Arizona’s and Georgia’s GOP did it in 2016, and North Carolina’s GOP tried it in 2018 but was blocked by voters

The Utah Senate has passed a bill that would expand the state supreme court by 2 seats (to be filled by the GOP governor).
This comes as local conservatives are angry about judicial decisions in Utah, inc. one that safeguarded direct democracy in 2024 & one that struck down their gerrymander.

Utah’s five Supreme Court justices ruled unanimously against Republicans on gerrymandering and their effort to gut ballot initiatives, so adding two seats may not tip the court’s balance immediately.
But Republicans are also considering changing the appointment process to increase partisan control

Trump, Trump's son and Elon Musk allegedly present at an event at Mar-a-Lago where children were auctioned off, and forced to have sex with Trump at the age of 13. Again, this appears to be an entirely separate account by a different accuser. They all seem very similar.
