Man-Eaters: 12 Animals That Have Eaten Humans

  1. Crocodiles Man-eating crocodiles are among the most dangerous animals known to man. “The saltwater and Nile crocodiles are responsible for more attacks and more deaths than any other wild predator that attacks humans for food.” One particular crocodile strikes fear in the hearts of humans that live near his feeding grounds… “Gustave is a large male […]

The Farce Awakens: How a Non-Existent Car Saved North Las Vegas (Maybe)

Once upon a time, in a land far, far away from downtown North Las Vegas, there was a desolated piece of virtually uninhabitable property known as the “Apex Industrial Park.” Indeed, the only business outpost there has been a truck stop serving intergalactic travelers from the planet Utah and places beyond. When our story began […]

What “Real Change” Should Look Like in the Trump Administration

Let me make a little post-Las Vegas Republican debate prediction: After beating Hillary Clinton like a drum, Donald Trump will be the next president of the United States. At this point, it’s become pretty clear that only Donald Trump can defeat Donald Trump. And despite what at times has appeared to be his best efforts to do […]

Willy Wonka & the Child Labor Chocolate Factory

(Chuck Muth) – As night follows day, candy-maker complaints about U.S. sugar policy on the cost of candy canes at Christmas follow complaints about U.S. sugar policy on the cost of Halloween candy.  And sure enough, Eric Peterson of Americans for Prosperity recently served up “Why Only One U.S. Candy Cane Maker Is Left” in a […]

The Great Faraday Farce

After Gov. Brian Sandoval and the Nevada Legislature jacked up taxes on Nevadans and Nevada’s existing business owners – many of whom STILL have not recovered from The Great Obama-Sandoval Recession – there’s no way in hell that newcomer Faraday Motors should get a DIME in tax relief. In fact, why would any self-professed conservative […]

Congress, Obama Moving Forward on Muslim Ban while Attacking Trump Over It

Today’s front page/above-the-fold headline in the Las Vegas Review-Journal blares: “Trump: Ban Muslim Visitors.” It’s actually a Washington Post story that, as you might expect, rips the GOP presidential frontrunner a new one for saying that temporarily barring Muslims from entering the United States is “common sense. “We have no choice,” Donald Trump said three […]

How I Love Michele Fiore, Let Me Count the Ways

God bless Michele Fiore. It’s a “fioreous” day for the conservative Nevada assemblywoman in today’s compilation of Nevada News & Views – an op-ed on the San Bernardino terrorist attack, a full photo spread of her highly controversial 2nd Amendment calendar, and the video from her Fox & Friends interview this morning responding to the […]

Surviving armed attack: ABC News stuck on anti-gun stupid

I accidentally caught an ABC News segment – before taking my wife to see a terrific Journey tribute band concert at the House of Blues with my good Democrat friend Ronnie Council Thursday night – in which some “expert” was interviewed on how to survive an attack by an armed gunman. This survival “expert” advised folks […]

Beer, Bathtubs & Biker Chicks: These are a Few of My Favorite Things

I think the most interesting and enjoyable campaign training seminar I ever conducted was well over a dozen years ago in Denver, Colorado. It was in conjunction with a convention for motorcycle riders and enthusiasts and, boy, do they ever like their freedom! I conducted a workshop on political action and lobbying, as the group […]

Assembly GOP Intra-Caucus Blood Feud Boils Over

The divide in the Republican Assembly Caucus – exacerbated last December when Assemblyman John Hambrick sold out his conservative colleagues for 2015 session’s speakership, a handful of magic beans and 30 pieces of silver – has only gotten worse since the end of the session. The feud between the more outspoken and principled conservative members […]

GOP Leaders’ Disgraceful Act of Political Pettiness over Syrian Refugee Crisis

When it comes to potentially bringing jihad to America by allowing some 10,000 Syrian refugees into the United States, it’s easy for President Barack Obama to be compassionate.  After all, he’s surrounded and protected by the Secret Service 24/7. But what about the rest of us? What if one or more radical Islamists sneak into […]

Big Candy Launches “Surge” Against Rubio, U.S. Sugar Program

Candy-makers and confectioners – intent on importing artificially cheap, foreign subsidized sugar – have recently ratcheted up PR efforts to kill the U.S. sugar program, including shooting at the presidential campaign of Florida Republican Sen. Marco Rubio. “Marco Rubio owes his political existence to Big Sugar,” declares Alan Farago in the Huffington Post. “Marco Rubio […]

Medicaid Expansion Poses Major Threat to States Foolish Enough to Embrace It

In a troubling opinion column on Monday headlined, “Medicaid Expansion Is Proving to Be a Bad Bargain for States,” Evelyn Everton and Chris Hudson of Americans for Prosperity note that 30 states accepted what were “essentially bribes” in order to expand their Medicaid programs. “Advocates in Washington of the Affordable Care Act have been fighting […]
