Several thousand Utahns still need to verify citizenship ahead of upcoming election
With the election quickly approaching -- and ballots already being mailed out -- the Lieutenant Governor's office is still waiting for several thousand Utahns to verify their citizenship to vote. More than 6,000 people were found on an audit by the State Elections Office to not have their citizenship confirmed. They cautioned that it doesn't mean there's a bunch of non-citizens on the voting rolls -- they just haven't been verified. Now, those thousands of people on the voter rolls could have trouble voting on Election Day unless they verify their citizenship status ASAP.

Reports: White House was behind Starlink internet issues in Ukraine
Several Republican lawmakers say they're concerned over Ukraine's recent internet issues resulting from Starlink slowdowns.

Water permit application filed for Stratos data center project; new defamation lawsuit filed against Kevin O'Leary
There are new developments in the Stratos Data Center project. After several months of waiting, we're finally getting a look at the new water permit application just filed by Kevin O'Leary's company. It outlines many of the details we've been waiting for -- like the number of data center buildings, the power source for the complex, and the amount of water the project's expected to use. At the same time, another Utahn is suing O'Leary for defamation; this is tied to his comments about Chinese operatives. Greg and Holly break down the developments.

New geothermal plant in So. Utah won't provide energy to Utah… at least at first
As Utah grows, we need more energy -- that's just a fact. So a new geothermal power plant coming to southwestern Utah sounds like a pretty great thing, right? Well, maybe not. A new power plant near Milford won't send any of its power to Utah, at least not at the beginning. Instead, Google and California will take most of the power. For more on the project and why Utah won't get to reap any of the power it develops at this plant, the hosts turn to Deseret News reporter Leah Bowers.

Gov. Cox's starter home plan continues to fall behind schedule
Homeownership continues to be one of the biggest drivers of personal wealth and net worth. Yet for younger generations, it can often still feel unattainable. To help combat that, Governor Spencer Cox launched his starter home program, which aims to build 35-thousand starter homes by 2028. But new data says the program is way behind track -- only 25% of the houses have been built -- and we're now halfway to the deadline.

Are data centers the solution to a possible economic recession?
There are plenty of concerns that stubbornly high inflation could lead to an economic recession. But the CEO of one of the world's biggest investment companies says something else could lead to a recession. The CEO of BlackRock says a pause on data center construction would actually be what leads to an economic slowdown. Larry Fink tells CNBC that data centers aren't the problem; they're actually the solution.

Pres. Trump says Pentagon will not livestream upcoming military execution

The execution of Nidal Hasan will still go forward by firing squad, but the President reversed course following bipartisan pushback from lawmakers and immense public opposition to the move. Hasan was previously convicted of shooting and killing 13 people -- and injuring another 32 -- at Fort Hood in 2009.
