Daly, President of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco joins to share some perspective.

Hosts: Taylor Morgan and Rusty Cannon  Federal judge finds probable cause to hold Trump administration in contempt  A federal judge has found that the Trump administration can be held in contempt of court. It comes after the administration allowed planes full of deportees to fly to an El Salvadorian prison, even after a judge said those plans needed to turn around. Today, Judge Boasberg said the act was a “willful disobedience of judicial order." KSL Legal Analyst and Inside Sources co-host Greg Skordas joins the program to explain the judge’s order and what happens next.    China positioning itself as ‘stable’ economic power thanks to American tariff troubles  Tariffs have been ever present in everyone's minds over the past several weeks. Here locally, Utah Governor Spencer Cox is telling state agencies to make plans for a possible recession as a result of the tariffs. And now China is positioning itself it be the source of economic "stability and certainty." All of this comes while President Trump seeks to bring countries to the bargaining table as he tries to fix what he calls a trade imbalance.    The tax burden faced by Utah families  Not all taxes are created equal. So while we get tax cuts in some places, we often see tax rises in other places. This imbalance warrants a deeper dive -- what's the actual tax burden for the average Utah family? Are they paying more or less taxes overall in 2025? Billy Hesterman, President of the Utah Taxpayers Association joins Inside Sources in the studio to discuss the organization’s Beehive Family Report.    Could Pres. Trump be open to increasing taxes on millionaires?  Tax hikes for millionaires? Reports say that President Trump is open to the idea, even as Congressional leaders push back saying they oppose the idea of any tax hikes. Among House Republicans however, the idea is getting mixed reactions. The Inside Sources hosts share their thoughts on the possibility of this idea moving forward.    Signatures gathered, turned in for referendum on public labor union law  Will Utah voters get the chance to vote to overturn House Bill 267, which barred public labor unions from collective bargaining? That's the question on everyone's mind today after opponents to the bill turned in signatures today calling for a referendum on the issue. According to the Protect Utah Coalition -- who was behind the referendum drive -- 320,000 signatures were collected in 30 days. That's more than double what is required under state law. Now, those signatures must be verified. State Director of Elections Ryan Cowley breaks down the process and requirements.    Audit finds Utah’s elections are secure but have security vulnerabilities  Utah's election system is secure, but that doesn't mean it doesn't have vulnerabilities and areas for improvement. A new report outlines several vulnerabilities found during a recent audit, including poor password management. Our own Taylor Morgan is an expert with all things elections; he explains how the findings and recommendations will help Utah’s elections be even more secure.    From the Hill to the Trails: The future of Utah’s outdoors after the legislative session  Of the 500+ bills passed during this year's legislative session, several of them addressed Utah's outdoors and recreation areas. Now that the dust of the legislative session has settled, we're getting a clearer look at how those bills will affect Utah's outdoors. State Representative Doug Owens joined a panel today to discuss those policies and the future of outdoor recreation in the state; he joins the show to share some insights from that conversation.    Fundraising already underway for U.S. House races  Election Day for members of the House of Representatives is still more than 18 months away.

Hosts: Leah Murray and Greg Skordas  The fight over the future of a Maryland man wrongly deported to an El Salvador prison continues today. Last night, the Supreme Court said the man must be returned to the United States but also said that the courts can't just tell the executive branch how to bring the man home. The Supreme Court passed the case back to the lower courts, who held a hearing earlier today. The Inside Sources discuss the latest on the case. 

Hosts: Leah Murray and Greg Skordas  Columbia University activist Mahmoud Khalil is a legal permanent U.S. resident. But the government is trying to deport him for his alleged antisemetic beliefs. The federal government was ordered to turn over evidence to the courts explaining why they felt he should be deported; instead, they submitted a brief memo in which Secretary of State Marco Rubio says Khalil could be expelled for his beliefs. Can a non-citizen be deported for their beliefs? It’s a little complicated... The Inside Sources hosts explain. 

Hosts: Leah Murray and Greg Skordas  Energy dominance doesn't come without a cost. And while Congress works on the full budget and tax package, Senator John Curtis (R-UT) is asking Congressional leaders to keep some of the energy tax credits put in place by the Biden Administration. Senator Curtis is also looking at ways to fix and improve our forests -- something we here in the West are all-too-familiar with. The Senator joins the program to discuss both of these initiatives. 

Hosts: Leah Murray and Greg Skordas  Artificial intelligence -- it's one of the biggest buzzwords in technology right now. And in a technology-friendly state like Utah, the inclusion of AI is all but guaranteed.

It's a bit of a complicated situation, so KSL Legal Analyst Greg Skordas breaks it down. 

Hosts: Leah Murray and Greg Skordas  Schools that receive federal funding often must do certain things to keep that money (Title IX is a good example -- schools must not discriminate based on sex). But to what extent can the federal government enforce that? The Trump administration says that for Columbia University -- which was a central part of the pro-Palestinian protests last year -- to keep their funding, they need to allow more federal control and oversight.

Hosts: Leah Murray and Greg Skordas  The philosopher George Santayana said it best: "Those who forget their history are condemned to repeat it." It's been a quote used by history teachers and professors for more than 100 years, showing the importance of learning our history. But history isn't always pretty -- it can be raw, ugly, and absolutely terrible. President Trump's administration says it wants to erase the kind of shame associated with those awful events. But is that the best move... to ensure we don't repeat the atrocities of the past? 

Hosts: Leah Murray and Greg Skordas  People experiencing homelessness tend to face some unique challenges most of us might not think of. To help with some of these unique issues, the courts hold a kind of homeless outreach program. Greg Skordas took part in some of that this morning; he talks about it with co-host Leah Murray.

Hosts: Greg Skordas and Adam Gardiner  U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts has agreed to pause the midnight deadline for the Trump administration to retrieve a mistakenly deported man. The Maryland man -- originally from El Salvador but here legally -- was deported to an El Salvadorian prison due to an administrative error. The administration admitted the mistake but said there was nothing they could do. A federal judge didn't like that answer and ordered the man be returned by tonight. But now that deadline’s been paused. KSL Legal Analyst Greg Skordas breaks down the White House’s argument. 

Hosts: Greg Skordas and Adam Gardiner  Imagine this: you've left your war-torn country and are in the U.S. legally under a humanitarian program. Then out of the blue, you get an email from the federal government telling you that you have 7 days to leave the country or the "federal government will find you." That's what happened to an unknown number of Ukrainian refugees last week. And the email sent out? Yeah, that wasn't supposed to be sent out. The Inside Sources hosts discuss the latest on this situation. 

Hosts: Greg Skordas and Adam Gardiner  While thousands of folks descended on downtown Salt Lake City for General Conference, another few thousand marched on Utah's Capitol Hill to protest the Trump administration and Elon Musk. It was part of a nationwide protest called "Hands Off." So, what were the biggest issues protestors had with the administration? Adam Gardiner and Greg Skordas talk through some of the frustrations.
