i support @Ohrenschall4NV on protecting gender-affirming care.
OPINION by Lotus Gage: “Nevada is an appealing safe haven on paper, but for trans people relocating here, escaping systemic discrimination comes with the hidden cost of stepping directly into a medical desert.”

No bueno: the Atlanta Fed's sticky core CPI advanced at a 3.76% annualized rate in the three months thru October
"The reason nonpartisans voted against us was because of Trump's policies, and the reason that Democrats were so energized to vote was because of Trump's policies."
they misread 2024, it was just trump at the top of the ticket on camcho effect, not a real shift to the right.
The 2026 elections were a referendum on President Donald Trump — and Nevadans made their disapproval of him clear.
An Indy analysis shows just how much damage ties to the president did to Republican candidates: thenevadaindependent.com/art…

OPINION by David Colborne: The blue wave wasn’t a political realignment. It was a temporary reset by frustrated voters who’ll forget about all this by 2028. Which is why Democrats should go hog wild.

starlinks for rural nevada, come to think of it.
- Buy up more public land for state parks and conservation
- A proper Texas Natural History Museum in Austin
- Creative funding schemes for building more affordable housing
- Create grants and/or deeply accessible loans for new or innovative home builders
- Fund initiatives for streamlining permitting and implementing comprehensive land-use reform
- Give every rural Texas a Starlink (double win here)

The U.S. should help Ukraine acquire more modern F-16s to help defend its cities from Russia’s daily bombings. The older F-16s can be outmatched by Russia’s fighters… the newer versions will give Ukraine the advantage.

not smart to open this up on the heels of heterodox wins in red states. driven by leftists out of touch with the mood in swing states.
Drilling down on the "thankless" part I referenced here: Chuck Schumer specifically brought Bernie Sanders into Senate Democratic leadership as one of his first acts as Democratic Leader ten years ago...
...and now today.

Lot of anti-BAAJA people in my mentions mad about my descriptions of the bill and the political dynamics concerning climate & tribes.
FWIW, I connected The Wilderness Society—who were offering me, a new dad, $10k to make anti-BAAJA content, to an actually famous Native environmentalist because he has a larger following and would make the case against the bill in as strong and vital a way as possible.
His videos on the subject now have 1 MIL views and that’s just on Instagram

.@StevenHorsford says he wants to lead the DCCC.
Would be a huge power position for Nevada.
“Yes,” Rep. Steven Horsford when @LACaldwellDC asked if he wants to be DCCC chairman at the @PuckNews #PowerBreakfast. He is a very close Jeffries ally and confidant.
“I don’t want it for the title… I think I can offer a lot of perspective,” citing his experience as a frontliner who has won reelection by winning a broad coalition of voters.
