“I think she thinks that it’s in her best interest to have another point of view in regards to the sentencing portion,” Sanft told the Review-Journal.

Not saying anything Sanft said was wrong, but I would just keep my mouth shut entirely. Obviously, there was a difference of opinion as to how to approach the sentencing hearing. Fiore is going against whatever advice Sanft gave, which she probably ought to heed.

Let’s watch and see who is appoited to assume Fiore’s seat on the Nye County Justice Court bench. Any guesses? Any Idea whose bright idea it was to appoint Fiore to that position in the first place?

Is it any wonder that the rest of the country views Nevada as a backwater dump?

For Halloween I’m going as OBC. I’ll bring a bag of (fake) cats to club and wear lifts in my shoes so I can feel important. I’ll try to explain to other trick or treaters how to ask for candy but as I’ll have no practical experience all my advice is probably wrong.

That’s because the GOP sold out and went the way of the Cheney’s and the Bush’s, joined the Dems to form the Uniparty that is controlled by Big Pharma, Big Food and of course the Military Industrial Complex.

Warmongers, all of them.

What are the constitutional issues as to the arrest/search? It’s a security checkpoint. The car isn’t registered. Far as I’m concerned, they could have towed it out and inventoried it later.

While Trump bragged (and continues to brag) about having the biggest and strongest US military ever when he was President. This is why MAGA is unserious and nothing more than a cult – whatever Trump says, becomes THE political position no matter what was said and done 2 minutes earlier – unprincipled, contradictory and literally the very thing Trump said he wanted to destroy – the ‘Swamp’. What a complete joke and farce MAGA is.

I am pretty sure that nothing was said about Trump or MAGA.

Strong military ≠ Military Industrial Complex and you are not serious for trying to make it so.

One can be FOR strong military and against endless wars and the unnecessary sacrifice of our young men and women in uniform.

Its even worse, Operation Warp Speed yo, we wouldn’t even have the COVID vaccines without Trump forcing big pharma to take taxpayer dollars to develop the vaccines. Then giving the vaccines away for free, making it so easy to force employers to create vaccine requirements. The whole thing is Trump’s fault, yo.

There are so many people who have never been vaccinated against COVID. This is such a weird talking point.

But also, are you arguing FOR forced vaccinations or people “let in” or are you not making any point at all?

You’re dululu 2:35. Undocumented immigrants don’t receive any of those things and they do pay taxes. It’s bizarre that this is a blog primarily frequented by lawyers. You’d think someone with that much education and specifically education targeted at critical thinking and evaluation of evidence would be able to analyze the unsupported and outright false claims of the right wing entertainment/outrage factory, but instead here you are…repeating the drivel. Good job. Dumbass.

I’m not apologist for the RJ or its ownership, but the paper was right wing before the Adelsons purchased it. That editorial would have run in some iteration whether or not the Adelsons owned it. Now that the Adelsons don’t have a casino in Las Vegas, it will be interesting to see how long they hold on to the RJ. Newspaper ownership seems to be a thing for some billionaires. If and when the Adelsons sell, it will be interesting to see the buyers identity.
