Follow the money.
A Greenwich hedge fund executive runs a PAC called Abundance PAC. In Q1 2026 he spent $98,500 on federal candidates. 83% went to Democrats.
The only Republican he backed in a primary: Celeste Maloy.
She co-chairs his caucus. She carries his permitting bills. He's given her $13,500 this cycle. FEC filings are public.
Follow the money. Then go vote on June 23rd.
Despite having hundreds of mosques in New York, mass street “prayers” are becoming a staple of life in the Big Apple.
And it’s not prayers, my friends, but assertion. They are claiming turf, like hyenas pissing to mark territory.
I remember when our national debt first hit $1 trillion and everyone was talking about it. We are now adding $1 trillion to our debt about every 100 days. We are spending more on interest on our debt than on national defense. The larger the federal government grows, the more fraud and corruption seeps in, the more our debt and deficit grow. This requires us to print more money which triggers inflation and drives up the cost of goods and services. America’s on an unsustainable fiscal trajectory.
I worked to reform our budget process here in Utah and will continue my work in DC. I'm committed to addressing affordability for Utahns by growing our economy, reining in Federal spending, and removing the red tape that makes it harder to produce energy here in the United States.
The Make America Healthy Again movement exists because parents, farmers, and families decided they were done being lied to about what goes into our food, our water, and our bodies. I respect that. And I want you to know where I stand.
I am with MAHA. Celeste Maloy is not.
Here is the record:
The original draft of the recently-passed farm bill included a provision giving pesticide manufacturers immunity from lawsuits over the health harms their products cause. That protection extended to foreign manufacturers, including companies from China and Germany. It would have stripped Americans of their right to hold these corporations accountable in court.
When Rep. Anna Paulina Luna and Eli Crane brought an amendment to remove that legal immunity from the bill, the House voted 280 to 142 in favor of removal. The vote was a bipartisan rebuke of corporate protection at the expense of American families. I would have voted with Reps Luna and Crane. No question.
But Celeste Maloy voted against the amendment. Roughly a month before this vote, she received a campaign contribution of $5,000 from a PAC funded by pesticide manufacturers.
Maloy’s vote is not a surprise to anyone who has been paying attention. The pattern is consistent: campaign money flows in from the industries seeking protection, and votes follow. That is how pesticide immunity ends up in a farm bill. That is how data center projects approved in five months without an environmental review got her support during last week's debate. That is how a representative stops working for the people she was elected to serve and starts working for the people writing the checks.
The long train of abuses, from closing our businesses and forcing deadly vaccinations on us, to robbing us through corrupt monetary policy, to enriching the elite while destroying everyone and everything else, to spraying our skies with poison, stripping our food of nutrition, deliberately degrading our forests, our rivers, and our lakes: these things should be condemned in Congress.
Yet we have, in Celeste Maloy, a representative who is cashing campaign checks when she should be defending the people.
The MAHA movement is the perfect time to break with conspiring corporations, to demand transparency, to stand up for people and ask: who benefits?
When our elected representatives fail to do these things, it is time to elect new representatives.
That is the choice before you on June 23.
I am asking for your vote and your help.
@phil_lyman Thank you @phil_lyman I didn’t think this type of defiance would have been possible. Especially with the controversy surrounding signatures. @RealEU4U
@phil_lyman@sltrib Incompetent audit is a sign of incompetent government and should not be tolerated… especially when it’s described deceitfully. Thanks @Phil_lyman.
What we’ve learned from the radical left is:
Ten Commandments in schools, BAD.
Islamic pamphlets, GOOD.
Ten Commandments, BAD.
Free Qurans, GOOD.
Ten Commandments, BAD.
Sharia brochures, GOOD.
A free Bible display is controversial, but free Qurans and Shariah literature are treated like ‘cultural enrichment.’
The hypocrisy is STAGGERING.
Here’s how our schools should actually operate:
Math, yes.
Science, yes.
History, yes.
Reading, yes.
Religious indoctrination and foreign legal systems that conflict with American constitutional values?
Absolutely NOT.
Sharia law has no place in the United States of America, and it certainly has no place being promoted inside American schools.
STOP THE PROPAGANDA, START MANAGING FORESTS
"Agriculture uses 80 percent of Utah's water."
You've heard this claim a thousand times. It's a lie, and it's being used to destroy Utah farming and ranching.
Here are the actual numbers from state water officials: Utah receives approximately 61.3 million acre-feet of precipitation annually across the entire state. Natural systems (forests, rangelands, wetlands, and open water bodies) consume roughly 92 percent of that, approximately 56.9 million acre-feet, through evapotranspiration and other processes. Human diversions (mostly for agriculture at about 75 percent of diverted water, plus municipal and industrial uses) total only about 4.8 million acre-feet per year.
Farmers don't use 80 percent of Utah's water. Natural systems do.
So why does this myth persist?
Because it shifts blame away from the real problem: federal forest mismanagement.
The U.S. Forest Service manages millions of acres of forested watersheds in Utah. Their policy has been federal non-management. Leave the forests untouched. Don't thin.
Don't harvest. Don't manage. The result is an ecological and hydrological disaster.
Trees consume water through evapotranspiration. An overstocked, mismanaged forest consumes water before it ever reaches rivers, streams, and aquifers. Peer-reviewed science shows that active forest thinning, selective harvest, and prescribed burns can increase watershed water yield by 20 to 50 percent. We're leaving millions of acre-feet of water on the table by refusing to manage federal forests.
Federal non-management also created tinderboxes across Utah's landscape.
Dense canopy cover, dead trees, fuel buildup: it all feeds catastrophic wildfires. Utah's wildfire burn rating from National Insurance underwriters is 39 percent. California's is 8 percent.
Let that sink in. Our federal land managers are doing worse than the state with the world's largest wildfire problem.
I served on Utah's Water Commission.
I understand the science. I understand the politics. I understand what it takes to fight the anti-farmer propaganda and push for real solutions.
The answer to Utah's water problem isn't punishing farmers. It's managing the forests that consume the water before it ever reaches the land where farmers work.
You need someone in Congress who gets this. Who understands watershed hydrology. Who will push for expedited forest thinning on federal land in Utah. Who will oppose the regulations that prevent prescribed fire and mechanical thinning. Who will tell the truth about what's actually consuming Utah's water. I will.
Remember the eight @UtahGOP members that the @SLCountyGOP Executive Committee (EC) illegally ousted back in February?
🙈 Then couple of weeks later a motion was made at the County Central Committee meeting (CCM) to reinstate them. Chairman @MikeCarey4CC said the motion was “out of order” for that meeting and he promised to call a special CCM to consider the motion prior to caucus night.
🙉 A couple of days later, Carey issued a statement saying he was not going to call a special meeting because the decision of the EC was final, and the CCM did not have the authority to rescind the decision of the EC.
🐘 Welp, the month after the eight were ousted, at neighborhood caucus night, a few of them were elected by their fellow Republicans to represent them at the SLCO GOP County Convention.
🙊 At yesterday’s SLCO GOP County Convention (see video) Chairman Carey would not allow them to be credentialed as county delegates. When a fellow delegate made a motion from the floor, to allow them to be credentialed, Carey ruled the motion out of order, saying that action can only happen at the CCM.
📂 File this one under: “You can’t make this stuff up”.
We’re in a serious conundrum: Islam is growing rapidly in the U.S., and some of its leaders openly call for turning America into an Islamic nation—just as they’ve done elsewhere.
In too many cities, we’re ignoring gross human rights abuses (honor violence, forced marriages, FGM) and allowing our own Constitution to be weaponized against us.
This isn’t about peaceful worship. It’s about defending our secular rule of law, women’s rights, and constitutional freedoms from Sharia ideology, which is fundamentally incompatible with American values.
We cannot stay silent. Educate yourself, speak up, and demand leaders put America first.
What are you seeing in your community?

Hello Senator Thune,
Let's expose what you're really doing with "reconciliation."
You announced it yesterday, eleven months after the House passed the SAVE America Act. You're not trying to pass this bill. You're trying to kill it in a way you can blame on process.
Here's how we know:
Reconciliation requires the Senate parliamentarian to rule that provisions are "budgetary." Citizenship verification is not budgetary. Photo ID mandates are not budgetary. The parliamentarian will gut the bill. Then you'll shrug and say "we tried." We see through you.
Meanwhile, you WON'T use the tools that actually work:
Rule XIX limits each senator to two speeches per legislative day. Keep the Senate in continuous session, file cloture daily, and the filibuster exhausts in ~12-20 days. You dismissed it as "complicated." Because if you tried and succeeded, you'd have to actually pass the bill.
Harry Reid nuked the filibuster in 2013 when he wanted results.
Mitch McConnell changed Senate rules THREE times and canceled the August recess.
Chuck Schumer used reconciliation within months on a 50-50 Senate.
You have 53 seats. You've changed nothing, canceled nothing, and waited eleven months.
Now let's talk donors:
• Goldman Sachs: $150K to you - top H-1B user
• Google: $75K - lobbies against E-Verify
• Meta: $72.5K - Zuckerberg's FWD[.]us pushes mass immigration
• Wells Fargo: $90K - banks undocumented immigrants
Same corporations sponsor Punchbowl News, where you sit for "Fly Out Days" which nobody watches except Congress staffers and K Street lobbyists who pays premium bucks for legislative intelligence. Their reporter then telegraphs to the audience the SAVE Act "will ultimately fail."
Corporate money flows to you AND to the outlet that frames your inaction as inevitable.
We see the loop.
You called grassroots anger a "paid influencer ecosystem." YOU are the paid influencer. You take the wrong side of a 80% issue because you are indistinguishable from a K Street mouthpiece, and an ineffective one to boot who won't bend the rules to get anything passed.
What we want:
1. Force a real talking filibuster.
2. Stop hiding behind process.
3. Pass the SAVE America Act.
YOU will become the reason that we will have our butts kicked in midterms. Not Candace Owens, not Nick Fuentes, not anyone else. You and you alone, and all because you want to make the 200 or so viewers of Punchbowl Fly Out Days happy. You're living in a K Street information bubble, addicted to the comforts and praises of lobbyists masquerading as journalists. You mistake the steak and martini dinners you get invited to as your own constituents.
You are not "moderate." The SAVE America Act has 98% support among Republicans. Name one other thing that has 98% support. You are an extreme minority who prides himself on being a calm leader, when in reality you are well in the running for the most ineffective Majority leader of all time.
Prove me wrong. Do the bare modicum of effort. Not symbolic. Actual effort. Cancel the recess. Get SAVE America Act passed.
Utah’s Housing Crisis: Why are “starter homes” now $525,000+ — up 50% since 2020?
The data is clear:
• Mass immigration is driving prices up.
– Utah’s undocumented population has jumped 47%.
– Immigration now accounts for 10–15% of Utah’s price growth — that’s $50k–$75k added to the median home.
• Investors are swallowing the market.
– In 2024, investors bought 18% of all Utah homes.
– They now own 25–30% of the Salt Lake housing stock.
• City permitting is slow, cumbersome, and hostile to new construction.
Young Utahns don’t stand a chance at buying a starter home.
We cannot fix Utah’s housing crisis while ignoring the enormous cost of unchecked illegal immigration, and we cannot keep strangling supply with endless city delays.
For starters:
- Remove illegal immigrants from the demand side.
- Streamline city approvals for the supply side.
Put Utah families first!
