Story Of Green River Heroism Takes Bizarre Turn With Phony AI Court Cases

A Wyoming judge has sanctioned a lawyer for citing fake AI cases in a lawsuit over what caused a nearly fatal house fire in Green River. A woman and her son were saved by Ryan Pasborg, [pictured right] who was given the nation's highest honor for heroism for his actions.

The Jetson Plasma Iridescent Hoverboard sells for $148 at Walmart and allows riders to zip around on two wheels.

It’s powered by a lithium-ion battery and on Feb. 1, 2022, one at the Wadsworth home in Sweetwater County allegedly experienced a “thermal runaway,” causing it to burst into flames and burn down the home, according to a lawsuit filed in Wyoming District Federal Court. 

Ryan Pasborg was running late for work as he drove past the Wadsworth family home on Highway 374 in James Town in rural Sweetwater County around 4:30 a.m. and saw smoke and flames coming from a bedroom window. 

He then rushed inside and saved Stephanie Wadsworth and her 4-year-old boy Weston. 

Stephanie suffered “devastating burns covering 35%” of her body, according to court documents.

Weston was also severely burned, but survived, while Pasborg was honored for his heroism. 

Full Lunar Eclipse Directly Over Wyoming Will Make Moon Look Blood-Red

The full moon will be covered in a blood-red shadow during a total lunar eclipse directly over Wyoming just after midnight March 14.

The moon will pass between the Earth and the sun, darkening its bright surface, and Wyomingites are in a perfect position to take it all in.

The peak of the total lunar eclipse will happen at 12:58 a.m., but the eclipse itself will be an all-night event, which means there will be plenty of opportunities for getting photos — provided the weather cooperates.

Lawmakers Working to Uncover the Left's Woke Agenda

A group of lawmakers are working to uncover the radical Left’s woke agenda that had wormed its way into nearly every corner of the federal government under the Biden administration.  

Diversity, equity, and inclusion programs were embraced under the previous administration, but the Anti-Woke Caucus is exposing how these “insidious theories have infiltrated so much of our government so that we can start pulling them out,” Rep. Harriet Hageman, R-Wyo [pictured right]., told The Daily Signal at the Conservative Political Action Conference just outside Washington, D.C., in Oxon Hill, Maryland, on Saturday.  

Hageman chairs the Anti-Woke Caucus, a group she says is targeting the “social justice-type nonsense” in America’s schools, medical system, and beyond.  

After DEI Fight With Legislature, University Of Wyoming Launches Image Makeover

The University of Wyoming is trying to improve its public image. 

The school has come under fire from the Wyoming Legislature over the past year for issues like diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) programs on campus. Now, the school is launching a “Wyoming First” agenda for teacher education and putting more effort into actively promoting its Wyoming-focused programs.

UW President Ed Seidel told Cowboy State Daily the school’s top priority is trying to figure out how it can help advance the state.

“We are really trying to make a statement to the state that we’re here for the state,” Seidel said. “It’s very important to us that people understand that we’re here for the whole state, no matter where you’re from, and that means every student, every town, every organization across the state.”

Last year, the Legislature cut funding for the school’s DEI office. In response, the UW Board of Trustees cut the office while still retaining some of its services.

Proposed Ban On Drop Boxes Slowly Moving Forward

A ban on ballot drop boxes appears to still be slowly moving forward in the Wyoming Legislature.  

Although they didn’t take a vote on it on Friday, multiple members of the Senate Corporations, Elections and Political Subdivisions Committee told Cowboy State Daily they plan to support a ban on ballot drop boxes in Wyoming but plan to make significant changes to House Bill 131 as written.

Specifically, two of the swing votes on the committee, state Sen. Brian Boner, R-Douglas, and Sen. Dan Dockstader, R-Afton, both told Cowboy State Daily they plan to support the bill when it’s heard again next Wednesday, but not before significant changes are made to it.

Boner said he wants to try and find a solution that alleviates both concerns about the security of the boxes and allows people who work long work hours like oilfield workers to still have an easy way to cast their vote.
