Politics on the Rocks Rocks at Vic’s!
(Chuck Muth) – The only bad thing about last night’s re-boot of Politics on the Rocks – featuring Gov.

Nevada’s Little Caucus That Shouldn’t
(Chuck Muth) – The Nevada Republican Party’s decision to hold a competing presidential caucus two days after the legislatively mandated presidential primary next February seems to be as popular among Republicans as wearing COVID face diapers.

The Senate Campaign Launched by a B-2 Stealth Bomber
(Chuck Muth) – A few years ago, I attended a very special air show at Nellis Air Force Base. What made it so special was that it included a rare fly-over by a B-2 Stealth bomber. Freaking…WOW! Look, I’m an F-22 Raptor kinda guy. I’m in love with that plane and what it can do. […]

Scam PAC and the Sam Brown Bailout
(Chuck Muth) – On Saturday morning I received yet another of Republican U.S. Senate candidate Sam Brown’s incessant “Me! Me! Me!” email fundraising pitches.

Nevada Democrats Refuse to Release Human Shield Hostages
(Chuck Muth) – Years ago, my friend, retired lieutenant colonel, and former congressman Allen West, was stationed in Afghanistan.

Triple Threat Today: School Choice, Sam Brown, and the Grady Bunch

Smashing the Arguments Against Gov. Lombardo’s Scholarship Rescue Plan
(Chuck Muth) – Democrats hate the idea of kids getting a good education and learning to think for themselves. Because they know that an educated kid is more likely to grow up and be a Republican.
