* Lying Rep. George Santos is gone. Good riddance. Should have been kicked out months ago. Kudos to Rep. Mark Amodei (R-NV) for voting to can this guy.
* Sadly, Walmart has joined a number of other “woke” corporations who have pulled their advertising from TwitterX in an effort to blackmail Elon Musk into again clamping down on free speech on the platform.
* Musk gave a very public two-word response to all of them in a recent interview. The first word begins with an “F” and rhymes with “luck.” The second word was “you.”
* A pro-Hamas protestor carrying a Palestinian flag set himself on fire in Atlanta last Friday and was last reported in critical condition. A security officer who tried to save him was injured in the incident. Should have just let him burn.
* White police officer Derek Chauvin is in prison for the death of a black criminal, George Floyd, who was hopped up on drugs and resisted arrest. Riots in cities all across the country erupted.
* Chauvin was recently stabbed 22 times in prison by a former gang member and FBI informant. But the assailant is black, so nobody gives a sh*t.
* A 23-year-old illegal prostitute who “was operating as a sex worker at The Venetian and Palazzo” has been arrested, along with her pimp, for giving a tourist “a fatal dose of fentanyl in order to rob him.”
* The pair “have also been linked to multiple robberies in the past year,” including charges last February for “armed kidnapping and robbery.” District Judge Jerry Weise ordered both held on $1 million bail.
* A couple of notes here…
* One, these things don’t happen in Nevada’s LEGAL brothels, which Nevada’s gaming industry refuses to allow in Clark and Washoe counties where most such incidents occur.
* Two, these dirtbags were known, career criminals. Why were they even still on the street? We need a tougher DA and tougher judges. Judges like Judge Weise.
* Speaking of which…
* A few days ago, a drunk driver killed two Nevada Highway Patrolmen. The DA asked for $1 million bail, but Hearing Master Daniel Westmeyer dropped it to $500,000.
* Are you kidding me? Judge Weise set bail at $1 million for killing a man who engaged the services of an illegal prostitute, but Mr. Westmeyer set bail at half that amount for a man who killed two law enforcement officers and is clearly a flight risk.
* Go ahead. Try to make that make sense.
* The Hamas-luvin’ Nevada Democrats have launched a new campaign to obtain super-majorities in both houses of the Legislature. In it they’re calling Gov. Lombardo “Veto Villain” for setting a state record of 75 vetoes of bad Democrat bills last session.
* Lame-o.
* Meanwhile, Gov. Lombardo has endorsed another legislative candidate, Rafael Arroyo, for Assembly District 41 (Clark), currently being misrepresented by Democrat Sandra Jauregui. Definitely a seat in play.
FAMOUS LAST WORDS
“Have I mentioned lately how much I admire the governor of Florida, Ron DeSantis. This guy has got what we call an iron-enforced spine.” - Rush Limbaugh on his final broadcast, 2/2/21
