| 1624117998570344448 | It's hard to look at the transgender hormone therapy ban that was passed say that is a model of the Utah way. It's not. It's not a middle road, it's not centrist, it's not compassionate, it doesn't respect the humanity of the other side. The Utah way is in jeopardy @RobertGehrke | 7 |
| 1625917101537132545 | Here's how Utah GOP lawmakers are trying to block transgender kids from playing in sports again this year, and why, @RobertGehrke says, there could be even more consequences. #utleg #utpolhttps://t.co/td03O06GRS | 3 |
| 1625179624799109122 | "Sometimes it seems like the Legislature has a weird compulsion to take things that aren’t broken and futz with them until they are.

| 1624083273126404097 | @RobertGehrke calls this legislative session "a sea shift in the makeup of the Utah Legislature", @saige_miller describes the pace as "pedal to the metal", and @higginsreports says the proverbial bandaid was ripped off early. We'll discuss the session today at 11 a.m. | 2 |

| 1624557253574692865 | @RobertGehrke I once saw a state liquor store employee reprimand a kid who dared to help her mom move a beer can from the shopping basket to the checkout desk. Apparently, minors shall not touch cans or bottles | 13 |
| 1624452446348271620 | @SharonGF_NBCT @BasedMikeLee Ya, but then when ever you see @RobertGehrke taking them to task everyone he is talking to is blocked already & you have to do extra stuff to see the whole conversation. This happened to me 99% of the time lol | 8 |
