It is a shame our LDS mobilized members to vote in Favor of Prop. No. 8 in California — back in 2008, and helped it actually pass! But now the Church hierarchy does nothing. Nor even reminds its members they ought not simply ignore the specificity of words in our single 13th Article of faith. ...
The upcoming election, rightly deemed the most crucial of our lifetime, demands our full attention. While most media focus has been on the top of the ticket, down-ballot races will make the most impact in our daily lives. With John Curtis vacating his congressional seat, Utah has a unique ...

Concerning Matthew Mellen’s opinion piece in the Daily Herald, the opinion was totally out in left field and exactly juxtaposed in reference to the Republican Party being infiltrated by the Deep State Gadiantion Robbers. It is the Democratic Party that has weaponized its current judicial ...
The Utah attorney general’s office has faced a couple of tumultuous decades, characterized by questionable judgment, partisan politics, and at times, scandal. We need to restore confidence in the office, and United Utah Party (UUP) candidate Michelle Quist is uniquely positioned to do that. ...
