Surprise! Shotgun Wedding
(Chuck Muth) – Surprises are fun. But not if someone lets the cat out of the bag and ruins it. As our friend and longtime political strategist Roger Stone wrote in his book Stone’s Rules, “Three people can keep a secret, if two of them are dead.” Well, my daughter Kristen – who many of […]
Trump (Need I Say More?)
(Chuck Muth) – When it comes to Donald Trump and the 2024 GOP presidential primary, Republicans generally fall into one of three categories… Never Trumpers. Never supported him in the past, will never support him in the future. They suffer from TDS – Trump Derangement Syndrome. Die-Hard Trumpers. There is absolutely NOTHING that will shake […]

Drew Johnson Shoots at Opponent, Blows Off Own Foot
(Chuck Muth) – OK, I’m back in the saddle, so let’s roll… Former Obama official Rahm Emanuel once famously said, “Never let a crisis go to waste.” So it’s not surprising that politicians and candidates are trying to use the Israel-Hamas war for political gain. That includes Republican congressional candidate Drew Johnson in Las Vegas. […]

I Know This Question is Going to Open a Giant Can of Worms, However…
(Chuck Muth) – You know, you people are the best. Your feedback is helping me more than you know. So I’m going to ask your opinion on a critical issue: Abortion. It’s clear, especially after last year, that Democrats are again going to laser focus on this issue in races in Nevada next year. The […]
This Is Probably the Last Place I Should Be Today, But…
(Chuck Muth) – If I was Tom Brady, on a higher floor, and on the other side of my hotel this morning, I could throw a football to the Pentagon. So if Hamas actually pulls the trigger on its “Global Day of Jihad” on this Friday the 13th – and if Joe Biden’s “woke” military […]
WARNING: Do Not Go on a “Picnic”!
(Chuck Muth) – The “Woke Virus” pandemic has already infected many on the left, and a new outbreak has struck UNLV.

Hey, Can I Get Your Thoughts on Nevada’s U.S. Senate Race?
(Chuck Muth) – Help me out here, please… Republican Sam Brown is the “anointed one” this time around after successfully raising millions of dollars nationally but still only garnering a third of the GOP primary vote against Adam Laxalt in his Senate bid last year. Brown played the game well after his loss. He endorsed […]

(Chuck Muth) – The Democrats’ Carson City “favor factory” scandals continue to grow and Nevada State Sen.

Drive-By Muthings: Newsom, Hochul, Trump…and John Lee
(Chuck Muth) – California Gov. Gavin Newsom has made his selection to replace late U.S. Sen. Diane Feinstein. As promised by the identity-politics guv, it’s a black woman, Laphonza Butler. But she’s got some sugar on top: Butler’s also “openly LGBTQ,” a former labor union boss, a former adviser the Kamala Harris, and the head […]
More Bad Press for Nevada GOP’s “Chaos Caucus”
(Chuck Muth) – The following editorial was published Sunday morning in the Las Vegas Review-Journal, the state’s largest newspaper with a conservative-libertarian editorial predisposition… EDITORIAL: NV GOP shows its cluelessness with plan to confuse its voters The biggest winners in the Nevada GOP presidential selection process are Nevada Democrats.

About Last Night: GOP Prez Debate #2
(Chuck Muth) – If the debate was a horse race, here’s how I think they finished last night for varying reasons… 1.) Ron DeSantis – by five lengths. It wasn’t even close. Clearly the most presidential candidate on stage, with not just rhetoric and promises but a track record to back it up. 2.) Aside […]
What You Can Do to Stop the Looming GOP Civil War
(Chuck Muth) – A few thoughts before I head for the airport and back to the barn… Yes, Donald Trump has a very strong following among Republicans. Yes, he’s the front-runner. Yes, if the election were held today, he’d likely be the nominee. But no, the primary isn’t over. Still four months to go before […]
Viguerie at 90: Still Marching Toward the Sound of the Cannons
(Chuck Muth) – Long before Al Gore invented the Internet, the clerk of the U.S. House of Representatives maintained a ledger containing the names and addresses of donors to presidential campaigns that was available to the public.
