I’m sharing Senator John Curtis’ weekly newsletter from my inbox.
Note the irony of the senator’s bicameral fiscal restraint bill.
I’ll point out that the good Utah senator voted FOR the deficit exploding OBBB.
Read on, Utahns.

Political cartoon in today’s Salt Lake Tribune. Cartoonist is Pat Bagley. Titled, “Do you speak woke?” A single panel with six different scenes, depicting Bagley’s view of what Utah politicians tout as voter fraud here. As the cartoon drawings progress: A reporter seeks evidence that 300 dead people voted. A politician taps his phone for said evidence. He disappears. In his place, Jefferson Burton (R-UT, Salem) appears. In the real legislative session, he proposed new legislation which would curtail mail-in voting. The last panel, if I’m correctly interpreting, has two politicians seeing his legislation as a scapegoat. What actually passed was a “study” to be conducted on vote by mail.

Killing citizen power.
Drawing “fair” maps.
Suing over court ordered maps.
Deciding which party runs, where.
And now a “study” on VBM.
If your voice didn’t matter….

Imagine if Temple Square had been blocks from Auschwitz.
Exactly how "Latter Days" do the Saints believe we are, that their association with atrocity is of no importance?

Just in: Gov. Cox just signed 7 more bills, including this year's alcohol bill. Some new elements are now law, including a repeal of the law requiring restaurants to check every ID for alcohol purchases #utpol
Friends, I’m hearing conspiracy stories that the DHS/ICE detention center is part of a deal in exchange for federal $$ to save the Great Salt Lake. I promise you, that’s not true. We Republicans are more than happy to host a concentration camp in SLC regardless. #utpol
As word spreads of plans for an immigration detention facility on the west side of Salt Lake City, many seem to be scrambling to get more details www.ksl.com/article/5146... #utpol

Heads up, #Utahns and #SaltLakers
We have a concentration camp purchased in Salt Lake close to the #Airport for #ICE and #CBP to warehouse our fellow humans in crowded, unsanitary, and inhumane conditions.
You can't pretend you don't know what is happening in these places. We know. If we allow […]

Political cartoon courtesy of the Salt Lake Tribune and and cartoonist WHammond. A single panel with a two-headed monster, depicted as Donald Trump. Out of both snarling mouths are his many explanations for how the war in Iran ends……or doesn’t.

I don’t think the article said, but KSL reported on the
10 o’clock news last night that the funds came from some trust? I wanna say Chicago?
Incidentally, the way a news tease was played on KUTV (a Sinclair station)? “It’ll bring jobs.”

Heck, get creative. Start an emergency "road reconstruction" and then take way longer than usual to finish it. Then immediately do "sewer upgrades". Then "water upgrades". Accessibility modifications to all sidewalks, curbs, and gutters. #utpol
The playbook is simple: the city denies every permit, obstructs every path to occupancy, using every legal means at its disposal. #utpol
The new internment camp is coming?
Why else would DHS buy a warehouse in Salt Lake City?

Screenshot of a political cartoon courtesy of the Salt Lake Tribune and cartoonist Pat Bagley. A single panel titled, “Sneaky sneaks sneak”. There are four figures drawn, Governor Spencer Cox and three Utah politicians. From left to right, Cox is shown “golly-gee-ing himself for signing last-minute legislation that is on his desk. Above his head, “With a flick of my pen…we pull a fast one on Utah voters.” To his right, three politicians are drawn in various moods. Left figure: jumping for joy. Middle figure: stomping on fair maps referendum. Right: head bowed in prayer. Euphoric: “Those dummies never seen it coming!” Angry: “Snarl, get, grr, grr”. Contemplative: “…And we thank thee for our moral superiority.” Context: Utah legislative session ends as the GOP sign last-minute legislation to stop the count of signature removals from their petition to repeal Prop 4.

Because our legislative abilities are superior (duh), we must remove all chance of “power is inherent in the people”.
By any means possible.

Hello, fellow attendee!! I went by myself, ended up on the floor - found out later that other friends also attended! Hard to believe that this was almost a year ago!?!
My network of friends speaking up & speaking out has massively grown and I’m feeling some HOPE!

"I think this was one of our most successful sessions since well before the inland port."
Here's how better conversations with state leaders & "cool beans" who stepped up on other bills made this year's legislative session far less "punitive" for SLC than 2025 #utpol
