Welcome back from the holidays to the Monday-iest Monday of the year as you get settled back in to the rigors of working regular hours again. FYI, there is a second post today dedicated to judicial candidate filing which opened today and continues until next Friday. All discussions related to that topic should be over on that post so they’re easier to find later.

Can we get a thread on Venezuela, Greenland, the Constitution, and international law?
You mean a “everything Trump does must be wrong” thread. No thanks.
Think of International Law like Santa Claus. A story told to girls and boys so they behave.
I have this theory. I believe that if Trump were to publicly say “don’t drink piss”, leftists would immediately begin drinking their own urine.
Guy could shoot someone in Time Square and this ^^^^^ post would appear everywhere
wow, so insightful. You should really publish this theory somewhere.
I remember when Trump said “I helped create this vaccine you should take it”
and all the “leftists” said okay and did.
I thought this blog was banning posters from Pakistan and Russia?
Noble Brigham is barely out of school and doing a pretty good job as court reporter. It will be interesting to see if the RJ is able to keep him.
I’ve given him background on stories and he is good at looking at filings and asking the right questions. I really liked Colton Lochead before him as well.
The Raiders have fired Pete Carroll. I would love to become a fan of Las Vegas’ NFL team, but the Raiders make it impossible. They are an incompetent organization spared from consequence by the fanbase they built in Oakland and LA, and the visiting fans. It is Las Vegas itself that, ironically that makes them profitable. They can turn out a shit product year after year and yet still sell out the stadium at premium prices. We should have never agreed to take them in.
The A’s are going to follow the same business strategy. Pretty sad.
Raiders, A’s, and Las Vegas government
The old adage applies: Fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, same on me.
The A’s and Raiders are a shanda upon our fine city! Send them back to Oakland!
The A’s are going to quickly find out that the MLB is not the NFL and that people from Wisconsin and Detroit love to go to football games in the desert in the winter but no one wants to go to baseball games in the desert in August.
Especially afternoon games in August
This business strategy won’t have the same level of success that the Raiders have enjoyed, but it will be successful. This stadium will hold only 30,000 seats. There are talks of MLB realigning leagues and divisions. If the A’s end up in the same division as two southern California teams (like the Dodgers and Padres), the demand for tickets will be brisk. If you’re looking to maximize profit and minimize expense (player payroll), this is a pretty sweet deal. You get to field a garbage team at very little expense while collecting revenue as if you were fielding a contender. This is the kind of thing that John Fisher could have only previously dreamed of. They only need to sell around 12,000ish tickets to tourists per game. They’ll be able to get 10k-ish from locals and businesses.
I am with you. A’s (unfortunately) are going to get great opponent attendance. Come to Vegas for a 3 game homestand knowing that your team is going to kick the snot out of the A’s and its going to be fun.
Maybe, but I think the A’s should occasionally try to win a game.
Who is representing Planned Parenthood? And I did not expect Noble Brigham to be so… Presbyterian.
Huh?
The Brigham article references a lawsuit by planned parenthood. Who is their attorney? Additionally, with a name like “Noble Brigham,” one would naturally assume he is LDS. But his LinkedIn shows Episcopalian and Presbyterian involvement, and graduation from Brown.
And so it begins . . . Today is the first day to file for judicial office, right? Any surprises? Any place where they track filings?
Just saw the other post. Please ignore the above
Track filings? See the Clark County Election Department website.
