Will Utah become the next state to drop concealed carry permit?
Rep. Walt Brooks, R-St. George, is sponsoring HB60 in the Utah Legislature's upcoming 2021 general session, set to begin Jan. 19. The bill's language mirrors legislation he filed in the final days of the 2020 session, which would remove the state's requirement for law-abiding Utahns over the age of 21 to have a permit to lawfully carry a concealed firearm.
"Every single person has the right to protect themselves," Brooks said, arguing that right should extend to people uncomfortable with openly carrying firearms. "It's allowing a law-abiding citizen to be allowed (to put their gun) under their jacket or a wife to put it in her purse."
Currently, 16 states allow concealed carrying of firearms without a permit: Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Idaho, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Mississippi, Missouri, New Hampshire, Oklahoma, South Dakota, Vermont, West Virginia, North Dakota (residents only) and Wyoming (residents only). Four others allow permitless concealed carry with certain limitations: Illinois, Montana, New Mexico and Washington.
Rep. Cory Maloy, R-Lehi, hopes Brooks' bill wins approval, but he's also running a more targeted bill, HB61, to suspend the concealed carry permit requirement during a declared state of emergency. If Brooks' bill passes, it will make Maloy's bill moot. But Maloy said he's still sponsoring the legislation in case Brook's bill doesn't succeed, arguing it would allow Utahns to exercise their Second Amendment rights discreetly amid times of fear and uncertainty.
"Especially in the early days of the pandemic, we were having shortages all over the place. People were feeling very unsure, very nervous about their ability to provide for their families and their safety," Maloy said, pointing to hoarding of cleaning supplies, toilet paper and ammunition as indicators that Utahns and Americans had "great concern for their persons and their families."
So whether that's in the wake of an earthquake that fractures Utah's infrastructure — or amid a pandemic that disrupts everyday life — Maloy said Utahns should be able to legally carry their guns, regardless whether that firearm is out in the open or under a jacket.
"People should be able to exercise that right in a time when people may be scared or feeling insecure or in danger," Maloy said.

Moderna admits here that what they inject now is an “operating system.”
Our Operating System
Recognizing the broad potential of mRNA science, we set out to create an mRNA technology platform that functions very much like an operating system on a computer. It is designed so that it can plug and play interchangeably with different programs. In our case, the “program” or “app” is our mRNA drug – the unique mRNA sequence that codes for a protein.

Biden Ushering in Second Coming of Religious Liberals...
All 10 living former Defense Secretaries have delivered an extraordinary warning to President Trump in an op-ed in which they denounced the possibility of military involvement in the current election dispute. The piece was published in The Washington Post on Monday, following calls from Trump's allies to bring in the military in a bid to block Joe Biden from becoming the next Commander-in-chief. The 10 Defense Secretaries did not mention Trump's name in the editorial, but clearly intended for the President to heed their message. ‘Efforts to involve the U.S. armed forces in resolving election disputes would take us into dangerous, unlawful and unconstitutional territory,’ the group wrote.
Inauguration organizers on Sunday announced that the traditional parade had been cancelled on Sunday. Instead, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris will participate in a 'virtual parade across America'.

Cruz-Led GOP senators want election
commission
similar to what decided disputed 1876 race
Cruz, other Republicans look for a repeat of what led to the election of President Rutherford B. Hayes
While out of the ordinary, it would not be the first time for such a process, as it is what happened following the 1876 election, allowing Rutherford B. Hayes to become president.
In 1877, following the 1876 election, returns from Florida, Louisana, and South Carolina – and one elector from Oregon – were disputed. Congress then set up a commission to determine how the electoral votes should be allocated, reserving the right to accept or reject the commission's findings. In the end, Congress awarded all 19 of the contested electoral votes to Hayes, who was elected with 185 electoral votes to Tilden's 184.
Terry Harper, a district chairman of the State Republican Executive Committee, the governing board of the GOP in Texas, lashed out at the Utah lawmaker and former presidential candidate after he argued that the Republican “ploy” to challenge the certification process on January 6 “dangerously threatens our Democratic Republic.”
“Romney should be introduced to our friend Mr Guillotine,” Harper wrote in a Facebook reply.
Government orders 'Jesus' on T-shirt censored as 'political speech'
'Jesus holds no political office and was not on the ballot'
A lawsuit has been filed in federal court against the city of Hart, Michigan, after officials there ordered a T-shirt message about Jesus censored.
The case developed when Margaret Wittman, an elections worker, was relieved of her duties for refusing to hide her shirt that said, "My heart will TRUST in you JESUS," while working at the polls during the presidential election.
"The Constitution does not permit government officials to order a private citizen to check her religion at the door to city hall. Ms. Wittman does not cease being a Christian when she is performing her duties as an election worker…"

Cruz: Google Is The ‘Most Dangerous Company On The Face Of The Planet’
“I think hands down Google is the most dangerous company on the face of the planet. Google is the most dangerous because it’s the biggest by far. It is the most powerful by far. It controls the vast majority of searches people do,” Cruz noted after describing big tech as the “single greatest threat” to “free and fair elections.”
