Some personal news. Next Wednesday will be my last day at The Salt Lake Tribune. It's been an honor and seeing the impact of the journalism has been a daily thrill. The work of The Tribune is critical for Utah and for the West and it was awesome to be a part of it.

I'm here at the Opening Ceremony for the #Paris2024 Olympics. Hit me up with your questions!

A few years ago, I wanted Silicon Slopes to pay off every outstanding school lunch account in Utah. I was told it’s not possible because some parents might take advantage. “So what?” I replied. This heartbreaking story is about much more than that, but the part where he was eating food out of trash cans struck a chord. No child in Utah should be denied lunch due to an outstanding or nonexistent account balance. I’m not asking the government to fund it. Just let Utahns pay for it themselves. I’m confident enough money could be raised in 48 hours to solve this problem forever.

Tomorrow, the 2024 Olympics will start. 140 athletes will represent Ukraine. 487 Ukrainian athletes will never again be able to compete - they died since the start of the full-scale invasion. Over 4,000 more Ukrainian athletes are defending Ukraine today. 📹: Suspilne

Just a reminder that this site sucks.

It'd be cool if this turned into a website for posting daily affirmations or something.

I've covered 20 years of paroxysms of public American violence. The search for meaning in the motives of the shooter is the worst part. It give us the impression that our violence problem is caused by whatever is most pressing in misfit's worldview and hands them a microphone.

Cried my way through this beautiful piece from @julie_jag. Do yourself a favor and always click on anything with Julie's byline — she's a masterful storyteller. ❤️

SLC just hit 104° and that ties a record high. #utwx

Lol it really worked

A deep-sea survey recently turned up >60 whale falls off the coast of LA. Beforehand, only 50 whale skeletons had been found in all the Earth’s oceans. What’s up with that?! Read all about it @hakaimagazine! (Thx to great edits by @Sarah_Gilman) hakaimagazine.com/news/more-…

We're living in the climate event push alert era. Each heatwave or extreme rain message on your phone is a distance marker as we head into unprecedented conditions. I have this strange compulsion to take screenshots of them all. So I wrote about it: theatlantic.com/science/arch…

Early answer to this question: politico.com/news/2024/06/30…

What happens to the claim that Biden is directing the Justice Department to prosecute Trump? Now free and clear?

An unfairly maligned formulation of the true meaning of the separation of powers, according to today’s Supreme Court majority.

Great news! @sewellchan named executive editor of @CJR.
