I just spent a few days in the mountains of Colorado and in Denver. It's easy to see why their COVID-19 infections are growing so much more slowly than they are here in Utah: They wear masks in Colorado, while we fight it tooth and nail in Utah.

Apparently, the evil, deep state conspiracy to deprive us of our freedoms doesn't exist there in Colorado. Which leaves me wondering: Does an even more evil conspiracy exist here that's targeting not just our rights, but our very lives?
