Damn right.
Damn right.
Official map from NOAA depicting the relative rank of winter 2025-2026 temperatures at a county level across the contiguous U.S. Many counties in the western and central U.S. are depicted in dark red color, signifying record-warmest winter. All other counties in the west and central U.S. are depicted in dark orange colors, signifying a "near record warm" rank.
The official NOAA stats out this week confirm that winter 2025-26 was the warmest on record across a huge portion of the western and central U.S., which has contributed to extremely low mountain snowpack & worsened the CO River crisis. Meanwhile, record March heat is in forecast.
Thanks for posting this! Recently retired to Mesquite and wondered who the artists was behind these creations. They are a bit of unexpected kitsch-y joy out here in the desert. Love them.
Oh dear.
Absolutely regretful
It would be as sad if the art was any good.

This reminds me of the video of all the Sinclair Broadcast Group's anchors mindlessly parroting the same dishonest, right-wing script. We are living in a time rife with propaganda.
Sec. Collins promised his VA reforms wouldn't impact veterans' care access. As @reptimkennedy.bsky.social said, that promise was broken. Collins cut 10,000+ positions for doctors, nurses, & clinical staffβleaving veterans with fewer options & longer wait times. We need a fully staffed & funded VA.
These people are thinking they're so fancy
Well would you look at that
...or school lunches, or free college, or lower groceries and gas, or...
And if the people in that district elect him, may they get exactly the representation they deserve. The political winds across the nation are blowing against him.
How many times must this man lose before he gets the message that the people of utah don't want him? I will enjoy seeing him lose once again.
Phil Lyman Announces Candidacy for Utahβs 3rd Congressional District Former State Representative Challenges Federal Overreach, Pledges to Defend Rural Utah's Economic Future and Restore Government Transparency BLANDING, UT (March 5, 2026) β Phil Lyman today officially announced his candidacy to represent Utahβs 3rd Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives, launching a campaign focused on ending federal overreach, defending Utah's right to develop its own natural resources, and restoring transparency to government on the issues that matter most to families in Utahβs 3rd Congressional district. βUtah is at a crossroads," said Lyman. "We need representation in Washington that understands the delicate balance between our thriving urban centers and our vital rural communities. I am running for Congress to restore transparency to our government. Utahns deserve to know exactly what is happening behind closed doors.β Lyman, a Certified Public Accountant, business owner, former Utah State Representative, and former gubernatorial candidate, is building his campaign around three core principles: Transparency in Government: Rural communities generate millions in tax revenue but often get shortchanged on infrastructure investment. Lyman will fight to change that. "As a CPA, I know how to follow the money," Lyman said. "Rural Utah deserves its fair share, and Washington needs to stop making backroom deals that lock up our land and kill our economy." America First Principles for Natural Resources and Economy: Utah should control its own resources. Washington bureaucrats should not. That means defending coal, oil and natural gas jobs, stopping federal land grabs, and proposing common-sense solutions. "We will work with Federal agencies to develop reliable power and open up our public lands," Lyman said. Peace Through Strength: Real national security means energy independence. Lyman will fight to bring rare earth mineral processing back from China to ruralβ¦

Check out Pat Bagley's latest cartoon: Handling the Epstein Files
One of my friends found out that his name was on the list of signers to repeal prop 4. The problem, though, is that he didn't sign that. Check your name, make sure these sleezeballs aren't doing the same to you. #utpol vote.utah.gov/repeal-of-th...
Utahns: because the GOP waited until super late to drop signature packets, thereβs a chance many of those signatures are from people who were deceived into signing. You have 45 days since the packets were deposited - til March 30 - to get your name removed if you were tricked.
The Epstein Class is the by-product of an economy that emerged over the last two decades, from which this new elite has siphoned off vast amounts of wealth.

βCity streets are properly a municipal function, designed and paid for by city officials who are answerable to city residents. Even when some of the money comes from the state, city officials should make the decisions.β
In 1854, after watching the federal government deploy 2000 federal troops and spend $40,000 sending Anthony Burns back into slavery, Boston's Amos Adams Lawrence said βwe went to bed one night old-fashioned, conservative, Compromise Union Whigs and waked up stark mad Abolitionists.β
This reorganization is Secretary Collins's third attempt to dismantle VA.
Veterans will feel the consequences.
Rep. JesΓΊs GarcΓa comes out swinging: "You're one of the worst attorney generals in our history and an instrument of Donald Trump's lawless authoritarian agenda, and I'm glad the American people are seeing who you are."
