This has been quite the week. On Tuesday, a local TV news outlet in Las Vegas ran a report that Nevada teachers are considering going on an illegal strike if they don’t get a 3 percent raise Governor Sisolak promised them earlier this year. There is no hearing for the pay raise scheduled as of yet.However, the very next day, Senate Democrats … [Read More...] about Carson City Update – March 30, 2019

A little truth from Chuck Muth
Nevada’s Fake News King, Jonny Jihad, Strikes Again
Brad Parscale, the campaign manager for Donald Trump’s 2020 “Keep America Great” re-election campaign, sent out a letter a few days ago voicing support for Nevada Republican Party Chairman Mike McDonald - who was one of the first GOP party officials to jump on the Trump Train in 2016.
And that threw conservative-hating liberal blogger Jon Ralston into a tizzy.
“This letter is priceless,” wrote Jonny Jihad in a twit-tweet on Saturday. “Leaves out the little detail that Trump lost NV in ‘16 and @McDonaldNV presided over two successive cycles of electoral disaster.”
He’s so cute when he’s drooling snark from up on his left-wing high horse.
Of course, he’s also wrong…as usual.
The president lost Nevada in 2016, not because of Chairman McDonald, but because of the last-minute “Never Trump” antics of some of the state’s senior elected officials at the time, especially former Sen. Dean Heller and former Gov. Brian Sandoval.
That was also the election cycle where Republicans who voted for Sandoval’s largest tax hike in state history were punished at the ballot box for royally screwing the very voters who put them into office.
And the electoral disaster for the GOP in 2018 again wasn’t because of Chairman McDonald, but because of the anvil of having “Never-Trumper” Heller at the top of the ticket, which helped depress GOP enthusiasm for going to the polls and voting Republican.
On the other hand, Jonny Jihad conveniently fails to note the 2014 electoral cycle when McDonald was also chairman and the GOP ran the table under his leadership – winning the governor’s office, every other state constitutional office, the state senate and the state assembly.
So Ralston blames McDonald for electoral losses that weren’t under his control but refuses to credit him with electoral victories that were. Total hypocrisy.
No wonder Ralston is considered the King of Fake News in Nevada
