Letter: Minnesota showed the nation what it looks like when ordinary people refuse to let authoritarianism take hold. If Utah were confronted with the same test, what would we do? sltrib.com/opinion/letter…
Great questions, and analysis from Fareed. State government is another matter, but SLC is 100% blue city, and too often, journalist blame all the city’s problems on the state legislature, and rarely hold their comrades in city hall accountable.
Blue cities are out of control, promising more, spending more, delivering less and pushing off fiscal problems to some future day. Democrats in city halls should stop governing as if the goal is to announce new entitlements, and instead make government work. My take:
We will not let the lake fail. Period. Thank you @POTUS for helping Utahns save the Great Salt Lake. 🇺🇸
@GovCox Slc pay to play, its the utah way! x.com/i/status/19428…
All those things are true but I think there are other reasons why we don’t have an F500 company. Just looking at tech the companies that could have become all sold too early (Novell, WordPerfect, Q, Vivint, Divvy and others). We are great at starting and building, but there is something else culturally that stunts it. My guess it has to do with the four burner theory.
In Utah, it’s time to build. Today I met with our industry leaders to discuss what we can do to keep Utah the best place in the world to innovate and build. We’re making it easier for founders to start here, grow here, and stay here.
@pchuntsman Personnel is policy (and output). You needed to replace EVERYONE. Keeping Pyle, Bagley, Gerhke, Schott, all the garbage editors, woke little interns was THE critical mistake. It really could have become a valuable, community, non-profit asset.
Wrong. Took a $3 million loss, and left with +$1m surplus. Couldn’t fix the neo-Marxist culture of the newsrooom, and paper will become a niche eastside newsletter for urban whites to spew their anger.
Mike, I appreciate you attempting this with a straight face, but I don’t remember the CFTC having authority over the “derivative market” of LeBron James rebounds. These prediction markets you are breathlessly defending are gambling—pure and simple. They are destroying the lives of families and countless Americans, especially young men. They have no place in Utah. Let me be clear, I will use every resource within my disposal as governor of the sovereign state of Utah, and under the Constitution of the United States to beat you in court.

The Washington Post isn't cutting the sports section today because Jeffrey Bezos is a ghoul or hates journalism. It's because journalism that doesn't meet the public where they are and where they want to be can't make money. My take on the reality of the future of journalism linkedin.com/posts/darrenro…
