Amazing to see

grow from an idea to a jersey patch to a cause supported by hundreds of thousands of people across the world. Today we announced that we’ve raised over $50 million for cancer research.
And we’re nowhere near being done.
Sometimes people ask me about players. I usually won’t comment, but I’ll say this about Mike Conley …
He’s one of the finest human beings I’ve ever known. He’s who you want your kids to grow up to be like and the kind of person you hope your child marries.
@mconley11
I live alone. To be kind, a co-worker invited me to go on a (social distance) walk this afternoon. Another sent me a video of his kids sharing fun memories of me. My sister-in-law drove an hour to “drop off a salad” but really to say hi through her car window. People are amazing.
Hey
@onepeloton
...not to be dramatic but you’re basically saving my life right now. Last week a doc told me I’d die at 55 if I didn’t fix stuff. 1 week into quarantine, hanging w you every day, I’m down 10 pounds, my mental & emotional health is better & I’m happier. So thanks 🙏🏼
I believe deeply in the power of prayer. I don’t know that I understand it, but I know it works. I know prayer can change things and, more importantly, it can change us. Tonight I saw a miracle and I know prayer played a huge—if mostly unnoticed —part. And I’m grateful. 💪🏼❤️🙏🏼

In one of the easiest decisions I’ve ever made, I wholeheartedly endorse

. Spencer is a leader. He will be good for the economy, for education, for the Utah. Most importantly, he’s a good and decent human being. DM me with any questions!
Thanksgiving leftovers are awesome but imma be honest … pregaming is even better. I ate a slice of the Honey Baked Ham and a piece of pie tonight and I stand by my decision.
Excited to join the great Angela Duckworth on Freakonomics No Stupid Questions. She, Stephen Dubner and I used to travel around to do Freakonomics Live shows (which Covid ended).
It’s a joy to join her in conversation discussing fascinating questions!
Leaving the office after a crazy day, I saw a co-worker pause outside the door and just look at the mountains for a minute to soak them in. It reminded me to slow down and appreciate just how remarkable this place is.

Put jeans on today for the first time in 3 weeks. Split them open within an hour. I feel like an idiot for wearing anything other than sweats during quarantine. Won’t happen again.
I found out one of my friends didn’t vote for
@SpencerJCox
and I realized I’ve been a bad friend to that person. Then I realized ... that friend must also like raisin cookies, trying to hold in a sneeze, and blurting out spoilers while watching movies. So...you get it.
#VoteCox
I live alone. I don’t leave the house because of quarantine. I wear the exact same black sweats every day (so do you, don’t judge) ... and I STILL lost my AirPods. Hahahaha.

@SenMikeLee
You went from this (below) to bastardizing Captain Moroni by comparing him to
@realDonaldTrump
. Genuine question ... since when did your desire for power so overwhelm your sense of decency? Trading your soul for the praise of a despot is far too high a price to pay.
Filling the car with gas is the worst experience. I don’t want a car wash. I don’t want to put in a loyalty number. I don’t want a receipt. I don’t want 12 weeks of home delivery of the gas station hot dogs. I’d like to fill my car with gas. Please don’t make it so difficult.
It’s hard to remember what it’s like to be a kid dreaming of a Christmas gift you know you won’t get because money is tight. And then to do this ... The real spirit of the season

Someone knocked on my door today to sell me something. I was so delighted to talk to a human being in person for the first time in days that I bought it ... and even paid extra for some reason. So, yeah, quarantine is going great.
I love the

Sometimes we feel totally overwhelmed because of the daunting demands of life, work, church and community. It’s hard, but it’s important to be grateful too...that we have something to do, that we’re needed somewhere, that people care what we think. It won’t always be that way.

A favorite Memorial Day tradition is to visit my grandparents’ graves and listen to one of Grandpa’s old talks.
Here’s a favorite:
Serving the poor, needy, friendless, discouraged…that was what he taught more than anything else. The Royal Law of Love.
“Rarely has so much fear and anger been directed at so few. I don’t understand what they are going through or why they feel the way they do. But I want them to live. I have taken this action in the hope that we can work together and find a better way.”

I know most won’t read past a headline but please read my veto letter—especially if you disagree with me. The veto will be overridden on Friday and then we will have a special session to fix a few things. Trans sports is a terribly difficult issue. Please be kind to everyone. 1/
March 2020 was the longest year of my life. March 2021 flew by.
Sometimes it’s all we can do to hold on through the rough times, and when we do ... there is always so much light and goodness ahead.

with plans to take an active role in the franchise and region. Story on ESPN:
Several random people have recently told me they’re loving my tweets lately because “they’re so real.” I think what they’re actually saying is, “It’s so entertaining to watch to you melt down from afar.”
I love Mitt Romney. The hypocrisy of the left is astounding. They welcome him today but vilified him before. No Democrat under Clinton or Johnson had this courage. The hypocrisy of the right is also astounding. So grateful to see one person to whom an oath to God means something.
“If you don’t walk like most people do, some people walk away from you, but I won’t. I won’t.” Grateful for

I grew up cheering for the Dodgers with my dad. This one’s for him.

We need to surround ourselves with people who love us enough to risk telling us the truth. Among the things that destroyed Tony were too many sycophants and “yes” people. He stopped listening to the only people who loved him enough to be honest with him.
The state of Utah is amazing. Today we celebrated Utah Philanthropy Day and heard the stories of so many good people who help lift and serve those around them. And we heard incredible words from

When even the Deseret News calls out the Utah legislature on its terrible bill, you know there are serious issues.
“HB11 scores political points without consideration for the consequences to transgender students, or to the cost to … taxpayers”
Stop calling it gun control. No one wants to be controlled.
Gun responsibility is the actual issue.
And we have too many politicians who refuse to address the responsibility that must accompany gun ownership.

Just finished writing promotion recommendations for half a dozen colleagues. I work with amazing people and it’s always inspiring to reflect on the incredible work people do.

Also what’s with everyone being so mean on Twitter when a guy posts about buying a hot dog and supporting local businesses? Be nice, people.

I love this team. I love that they define what it means to be a team. Who knows what next year brings, but the 2018 - 2019 crew will always be a special one.
Friends, I will never be able to thank you enough for your kindness and support during this campaign. The closing statement of the debate is my closing statement today. Please take 90 seconds to watch and share. And if you haven’t voted yet, please vote Cox-Henderson.
To everyone in the LGBTQ+ community, we love you.
Not “we love you anyway”
Not “we love you even though”
Not “we love you in spite of”
Just we love you. For you. All of you.

Rudy Gobert: “My dream was always to bring a championship to Utah. Some people didn’t believe that could happen,and it’s fair. It’s their job to do what they think is best for the team. Now I’m in another place, but it doesn’t change the human side of it.”
