You want student learning to change but you don't want to change teaching or schooling. Good luck with that.

Republicans. Don’t. Care. About. You. There’s ALWAYS money for wealthy people, corporations, and war, though. 🙄 @GOP #GOP #maga #republicans @TheDemocrats @TheDemCoalition #democrats #FAFO

An AI data center wants to build right on the shore of the Great Salt Lake. 💦 Not near it. On its wetlands. It just asked the state for permission to dump 252,000 gallons a day of leftover industrial wastewater into the marshes that feed it. This isn't treated sewage. It's brine, the concentrated salt and mineral leftover from stripping fresh water out for industrial use, including arsenic. It would be discharged with nothing to dilute it first. The discharge route runs through North Willow Creek and empties into Gilbert Bay, the main body of Great Salt Lake. Along the way, it cuts straight through the Stansbury Mudflats, a mapped shorebird habitat where researchers count Wilson's phalarope, a bird already being considered for endangered species protection because this exact kind of wetland is vanishing. Up to 80,000 of them gather here before migration. Here's who's actually behind it. The company pushing this through, Zenith Bolinder LLC, is partly owned by the father and uncle of Utah State Representative Bridger Bolinder. The other owner has already been convicted of tax fraud once. He served a year in prison for failing to pay $620,000 in federal excise taxes. That same company couldn't get a traditional bank loan. Banks said no. So the state's own port authority stepped in instead. $54 million in tax financing diverted from local schools for the next 25 years. $80 million in bonds. $100 million more on top of that. $234 million in public money, funneled into private hands. Who told Rep. Bridger Bolinder's family they get $234 million in public money and a dying lake's water, too? 💦 #DemsUnited
