Utah allows year-round mountain lion harvest for licensed hunters without a separate cougar tag.

Yes, you must have a valid Utah hunting or combination hunting fishing license to hunt mountain lions, but you do not need a separate cougar tag. Okay, so it is like a coyote. Yeah, so it's year-round harvest for licensed hunters, and you just have to get it checked in after you kill.

Utah conducted a pilot program allowing voters to submit votes via email or text message.

In Utah, I was meeting with the Utah officials there. They did an experiment, a pilot program in 2020 in municipals in three different counties in Utah. You emailed in your vote or you text in your vote. Did you hear that? They emailed in their vote or text messaged their vote in.

The Utah voting pilot program used blockchain technology to allow smartphone voting, not direct email or text submission.

So Mike isn't being honest about this pilot program in Utah. You wouldn't text in or email in your vote. What they were exploring was a broadening of a system that uses blockchain to allow users to vote using their smartphones with an online platform. The way Mike is describing it is reductive because he wants to belittle the idea and make it look like a clear plan to steal votes. The bill that was passed in late 2020 just allows municipalities, quote, to choose to permit a voter to vote by electronic means approved by the municipality's election officer. The Utah County clerk slash auditor told Deseret News that they've been using this function for the past five elections with no problem and that it has been particularly useful in allowing overseas voters like enlisted persons to vote with less hassle.

Utah allows the use of gold and silver to pay debts and taxes.

When he says they there, he's talking about the people in Utah. Utah is one of the only... I think it's the only state. In 2011, they made it so you can use gold and silver in order to pay... For, like, debts and stuff like that. Even your taxes and stuff like that. So that got changed, and so there's, like, exchanges that have opened in Utah around this gold and silver market that is much different than it is in other states.
