Check the battery connections - sounds like one is completely off. If they are tight, check the battery ground wire, where is connects to the frame. It may have corroded and lost integrity or come away completely.

Lost power steering, car died, changed battery, and barley made it home. The battery has power, but when you turn the key on the dome light and other lights, radio, windows, etc don't work.

Sounds like the vehicle is not charging you may need a new alternator get the car going with jump leads again and test the voltage at the battery terminals with a DC volt meter expect 13.5-14.5 if you get less than 13.5 your alternator is bad or wiring fault also check the alternator belt is tight.

Why is my 2001 Jeep Wrangler stalling when I slow down or stop at a light/stop sign?

check that the brake booster is not leaking vacuum when you have your foot on the brakes and upsetting the air /fuel mixture at idle. When coming to a stop use the hand brake to stop the car and if it keeps idling ok then it will be the booster.

Intermittant warning light after hitting pothole. When accelerating lose all dash including speedometer and tacometer.

My first guess would be a wiring problem in the engine compartment. Something is breaking contact when the engine moves back and forth.
Could be something around the battery or alternator, or a ground wire.

Slowing down for stop sign lost everything, all power including all lights

It could be car needs to be tuned up or alternator could have gone bad. Also check the battery. It could have gone bad.
