  11-02-2018 23:12
  Washington • Senior White House aides insisted Sunday that President Donald Trump retains confidence in Chief of Staff John Kelly in the midst of staff turmoil and said the president is not looking to replace the retired four-star general hired six months ago with a mandate to corral chaos."I spoke with the president last night about this very issue, and he wanted me to re-emphasize to everyone, including this morning, that he has full confidence in his current chief of staff, Gen.

• Utes keep themselves in middle of the Pac-12 race after routs of Stanford, Cal

  11-02-2018 22:09

Saturday night’s 34-point victory marked Utah’s largest spread in a win this season since it

• Autopsy gives no insight on motive in Vegas mass shooting

  Las Vegas • The much anticipated autopsy report on Las Vegas gunman Stephen Paddock did nothing to help explain why he carried out the deadliest shooting in modern U.S. history — his body didn’t hold diseases or drugs or other substances that could have caused aggressive behavior.In fact, it showed he was a sober, healthy 64-year-old.The report — released Friday in response to a lawsuit by The Associated Press and the Las Vegas Review-Journal — showed gunman Stephen

• Marriott Miracle — the improbable last-second comeback for an OT win over San Francisco — will live in BYU basketball lore

  11-02-2018 21:17
  Provo • Move over, 1980 Holiday Bowl. BYU sports fans have another miraculous comeback to crow about. OK, it might be a stretch to suggest that Saturday’s dramatic 75-73 overtime basketball win over San Francisco rivals the furious fourth quarter rally and Hail Mary pass that beat SMU 46-45 to give BYU its first bowl win. But the Marriott Miracle, as some are calling it, was incredibly memorable, nevertheless. And almost as improbable. It took a perfect storm of events, a couple of fa

• Commentary: Zero-tolerance policies can re-victimize victims of bullying

  11-02-2018 21:00
  In the 1980s and 1990s, schools all over America adopted the zero tolerance policy. It was installed with the original intention to lower drug- and gang-related violence and adapted to the general school populations. Research has shown, over time, that the zero tolerance policy is ineffective in improving school social climates, students delinquent behavior or improving overall learning environments. The U.S. Department of Education warns that a student’s removal from school does not impro

  As an old vet and retired accountant I am a little confused with our Utah Republican representatives who claim we need a “free market.”Rep. John Knotwell, sponsor of HB169, is asking to give EnergySolutions a break of $1.7 million on fees it pays the state.Is this because various state Republican representatives received $67,700 from EnergySolutions (The Tribune, Feb. 6); they cannot prostitute themselves quickly enough to protect EnergySolutions?

  11-02-2018 17:23
  Contrary to the claim of Bob Brister and Frances ReMillard (“Protecting Israel,” Public Forum, Feb. 7), the BDS bill neither silences criticism nor restricts free speech. Instead it fights the delegitimization of the Middle East’s only democracy — and one where Israeli Arabs have more rights than residents in any other country in the region.There is a fundamental hypocrisy behind the BDS movement. It targets the freest state in the Middle East. It punishes Israel for Pale

  The problem with a sales tax is that it is, by its very nature, regressive. That’s the economist’s way of saying that it falls harder on low-income households than it does on higher-income folks.Yes, the published rate is the same for everyone within a given jurisdiction. But people who live paycheck to paycheck, spending basically every dime that comes in, are effectively paying sales tax on a huge portion of their income. Generally everything that isn’t rent or the mortgage.B
