Union members submit a jaw-dropping 320,000 signatures — more than double the required amount — to put a referendum on the ballot against the legislature’s bill banning public employee unions from collective bargaining.

But no one is declaring victory yet: fox13now.com/news/politics/uni #utpol #Utah

FOX 13 News Utah (KSTU) · Unions submit 320,000+ signatures to get referendum on the ballotBy Ben Winslow

In @taylorlorenz 's most recent newsletter, which I think is absolutely worth your time, she had a hysterical typo.

#Utah's governor has signed... an anti-DEI bill ... that mandates that all smartphones, tablets, computers sold in Utah come pre-installed with corn filtering software

It brought to mind this image of naked ears of corn that should not be seen by impressionable little minds.

She said she puts the word 'corn' into her YouTube scripts so she doesn't say 'porn' because the videos might get demonitized. And then she accidentally left that substitution in the email newsletter when it went out.

But yeah, go read her work. So many of these won't-someone-think-of-the-children bills are actually terrible when you look into them. It's hard to tell the difference between industrial strength stupidity and actual malice.
