Peculiar People

@nateforutah.bsky.social The Salt Lake Tribune indic you may run for a seat in the U.S. House of Reprepresentatives in November. Based on the voting map that was approved yesterday, which district do you live in?

President Trump is under the impression Portland is on fire largely because Fox News recently dramatized their reporting by using footage from riots there in 2020 that ensued the death of George Floyd.

Watch out Nashville!

Nexstar elected not to broadcast the Jimmy Kimmel Show when it resumes tonight. If you object, please contact your congressional representatives and object to Nexstar’s proposed $6.2 billion merger with Tenga because it’s all about the money.

We could defeat Venezuela with a fixed wing plane. The whole military build up and saber rattling is simply a diversion from Trump’s efforts to subvert the constitution and conceal the Epstein files. Keep your eye on the ball.

Tariffs were imposed to increase the cost of goods produced overseas, lower their demand by consumers and motivate U.S. based companies to manufacture lower cost alternatives. If large companies absorb the impact of the tariffs then the desired results won’t be achieved.

Charlie Kirk: Thoughts and prayers

The article makes it pretty clear the forces are being deployed for action against Venezuela, not Puerto Rico.

Epstein Victims Will Meet With Congress Committee Members The reported meeting is part of the House Oversight Committee’s broader investigation into the Jeffrey Epstein case.

Ten of Epstein’s victims are scheduled to testify before a House panel.

Powerful words.

Does seem unacceptably “woke”,

Pentagon has blocked Ukraine from striking deep inside Russia – report Wall Street Journal says move is part of Trump administration’s effort to get Putin into peace talks

Meanwhile, Trump blocked the use of long ranges weapons by Ukraine who are defending their country in an actual war against Russia.

Shame on the entire congressional delegation from Utah.

Gov. Cox: Utah National Guard won't help with arrests if called to aid with immigration crackdown Utah Gov. Spencer Cox said the Utah National Guard won't carry out arrests if called to aid with the immigration crackdown, though it could help with transportation logistics.

Gov. Cox is cool with it. But he’s also cool with 18 year men raping 13 year old girls so…..

I ordered three Mexico flag decals for the rear windows of my cars. Just to throw ICE off the scent and both my horn and middle finger work.

GOP lawmakers in ruby red state privately rage against Trump plans: 'She prayed every day' Donald Trump's economic policies are reportedly tearing apart a ruby red state.GOP senators and representatives in the reliably red state of Utah are talking tough on Trump's policies in private, only...

So my Utah representatives recognize their responsibilities but cave anyway? It’s The Utah Way.

I can’t find any independent news reports that indicate anybody in DC was arrested for eating in public. Can anyone provide a link or is this story simply untrue?

ICE aims to spend millions on decked-out vehicles for D.C. operation Documents show the agency is seeking to purchase two dozen SUVs, along with gold-detailed custom wraps.

ICE is spending $2.4 million for tricked out vehicles that will be used to suppress the citizens of Washington D.C. That’s in addition to the estimated $1,000,000 per day the federal government is spending for armed National Guard troops.

Imagine the benefits of spending half those amounts wisely

Use this stuff on clothing.

The proposed bill was sponsored by Chris Wilson so I trust he’s comfortable limiting the length of his government service to eight years too.

No chance in hell.

The Mormon church has a division that invests in stocks. The aggregate value of their portfolio is $58.4 BILLION. Something to remember when it comes time to tithe.

Sophie Jade is a talented illustrator who lives in a small northern Utah town. Perhaps one of the many talented writers in this group would like to collaborate with her.

AP reports the national debt just reached a record $37 trillion. The art of the deal.

My prediction: Leadership of the DNC will expressed disdain for the actions of Republicans but their inaction will lead to the establishment of new, more liberal factions within the party. That will fracture the voting block, ensuring Republican victories in 2026.

Yesterday, JD Vance was scheduled to attend an event in the Cotswolds where he is vacationing. A musician who was booked to entertain abruptly cancelled when she learned Vance was the guest of honor. A second group of performers who were subsequently booked as substitutes also cancelled. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Linsey Graham, America’s answer to Neville Chamberlain.

Hitler promised Germany wouldn’t expand its territory further if British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain convinced Czechoslovakia to cede the Sudetenland. And Trump naively maintains Putin won’t have further territorial ambitions if Ukraine gives up Donbas. Art of the deal.

Riddle me this. Why are goods imported from foreign countries subject to tariffs but not the services the same countries provide to U.S. based companies (e.g., consumer call centers, banks, insurance companies, software coding, etc.)?

Do those jobs involve work that can’t be performed here?
