Some much needed context and insight on the Minnesota murders of two elected officials from my friend and colleague @jpcoolican:

I got mad and wrote a column: A Democratic legislator was assassinated; right-wing influencers coughed out disinformation https://t.co/FdyNgZAPOR

First world annoyances: When the fast food people ask you to park in front so their little drive-through timer doesn’t show the actual time you waited for your order. Especially aggravating when you are the only one in the drive-through at the time.

According to a study performed here at the Sebelius Institute for the Study of Nevada Politics and Government, 17.7% of all vetoes issued by all governors in the history of the state of Nevada (1864-present) were issued by Gov. @JosephMLombardo.

“The Governor lives in some voter ID fantasy world, where actual ballots don't have to be processed and counted.” — Bradley Schrager on the veto of AB 499 in @TheNVIndy. https://t.co/tGsamisNMy BTW, voter ID fantasy world is the least visited Disneyland theme area.

Whoever is dropping veto messages at 5 p.m., please stop.

Gov. @JosephMLombardo has now vetoed 86 bills in the current session, including AB 499, a compromise measure that included voter ID provisions, and AB 414, which would have prohibited restricting access to library materials. He now holds the all-time veto record, of 161 bills.

By my count, at least 7 journalists were struck by Metro projectiles and/or tear-gassed Wednesday night in Las Vegas, including journos from the R-J & Las Vegas Sun & another photographer. That’s just that I know of for sure.

Also your regular reminder that, if you are an elected official, no policy or mandate from your governmental body can or should bar you from speaking to the media. You were elected to represent your constituents, and you answer to them, not the mayor or city manager. #Believe

This @Casey_Harrison1 story is amazing on many levels, from the Soviet-style photo purges to the claims of divine political instruction to the council-meeting pettiness. https://t.co/u0xXNCpVqe

Gov. @JosephMLombardo has now exceeded his '23 veto total of 75, logging 76 vetoes in the current session, according to the legislative website. That's a total of 151, well in excess of any previous Nevada chief executive. Deadline for signing is Friday, so number could grow.

Gov. @JosephMLombardo has vetoed a campaign-finance reform law -- Senate Bill 414 -- that would have among other things required disclosure of inaugural committee donations. He vetoed a similar bill in 2023.

Loved that place. It is missed!

So, if I have this right, just $10 will restore order in L.A., forestall a lawsuit AND an impeachment, on top of which I might win free gold golf balls??!! Well, that's quite a deal. https://t.co/pk8DOGF9cC
