Utah lawmakers updated state law governing concealed weapons during the 2025 General Session. Under the changes in HB 128, which went into effect on May 7, individuals who are 18 years old or older and have a current Utah concealed weapon permit (CWP) may carry a weapon on campus, including in an “open” fashion “Our highest priority is preserving public safety on campus,” said Keith Squires, chief safety officer. “As a subdivision of the state, the University of Utah enforces state law, including concealed weapon rules. Equally important is our role in educating members of our campus community about how to responsibly carry a concealed weapon on campus and how to engage with roommates, professors and others to avoid conflicts and misunderstandings.” Utah has been an open or “constitutional carry” state since 2021. Prior to the passage of HB 128 during the 2025 Utah Legislature, those who wanted to carry a firearm on campus were required to keep it concealed. The new law makes it clear that Utahns 18 years or older, who have a concealed weapon permit, may carry a firearm concealed or openly on campus. University of Utah Police will confirm that those carrying openly on campus have a concealed weapon permit.

ohhhh the hits just keep on coming

“I suspect that history will record 2025 as an inflection point in American (if not world) history, the point at which the promise of a future rooted in universal access to knowledge collapsed under the weight of infinitely accessible fictions. And a debate emerges over the moment that embodies that collapse, I would like to offer as a contender the murder of Melissa Hortman. Hortman is the Democratic legislator in Minnesota who was shot to death in her home by a man masquerading as a police officer. His disguise was uncomplicated, involving a clunky mask, ersatz uniform and vehicle adorned with flashing lights. The get-up was convincing enough that, when questioned by an actual police officer, the assassin was able to simply drive away.”

The nominee for a lifetime federal judgeship has demonstrated a total disregard for the high ethical standards to which most federal prosecutors hold themselves.

Well over 300 federal, Article III judges across the country are former federal prosecutors. They have been nominated by Democratic and Republican presidents in larger numbers than any other group of lawyers. And yet I cannot recall such fierce and widespread opposition to a former prosecutor’s nomination — not just from a range of ideological backgrounds, not just from the legal community generally, but from more than 900 former Justice Department attorneys and former judges — until the nomination of Emil Bove.
