The video clip that President Trump posted in a late-night flurry of social media activity caused an unusually strong and public outcry from members of his own party.

A friend told me she was accosted by a signature gatherer in an aisle inside of Smith’s while shopping. I thought she was confused and asked if meant outside of Smith’s. No, she said. She was inside the store.

I’ve just told them “not on your life” when they asked me if I “was a registered Republican” and “want to sign this petition to stop radical leftists” If I was still unemployed I would be right next to their table giving out facts and counterpoints every day.

Rep. Owens says this critical resolution taking on the Utah Judiciary is “the strong branch of government punching down on the weak branch of government.” Owens reads parts of the District Court ruling. #utpol #utleg #uted #SeparationofPowers #ChecksAndBalances #UtahConstitution

Rep. Tuescher sums up before the vote I. HB 267 repeal. He says that teachers are on suicide watch during the legislature because of the UEA. Tuescher and the Legislature are only trying to help public education. #utleg #utpol #uted #UEA #RedforEd

Rep. Jordan Tuescher says the Utah Legislature is repealing HB 267 in special session because the conversation has become “too hot”. He was just trying to give teachers a “stronger voice”. Uses phrase “Utah Way”. #utpol #utleg #UEA #RepTuescher #RedforEd #UtahWay

I told the County Council that I have never seen a cure cost less than prevention. Child care centers and senior centers are prevention. Closing child care centers and senior centers will create problems needing cures. #SaltLakeCounty #childcareiseconomicdevelopment #utpol #utleg

Council member Aimee Winder Newton says that the County Council never voted to provide child care to county residents as a council policy. Question: wasn’t the creation & funding of child care centers tacit creation of that policy? #utpol #SLCO #AimeeWinderNewton #10thEastCenter

Rep. Doug Owens rises in opposition to SB 1011, Redistricting Standards. He notes the UT Supreme Court told the Leg not to change Prop 4 unless it had a “compelling public interest” which Owens says has not been presented. #utpol #utleg ⁦@betterutah⁩ ⁦@BBforUT⁩

Rep. Norm Thurston speaks in favor of Sen. Brammer’s Redistricting Standards bill. A good choice for House floor sponsor. He likes esoteric arguments and getting into the weeds of the policy. #utpol #utleg @BBforUT @betterutah #WeThePeople
