The Washoe County Republican Party central committee voted last night to retain Heidi Smith as their chair. That decision, in and of itself, was a pretty good one. Heidi has done wonders for the organization of our county party.

SB 415 would stop illegal immigrants from receiving Millennium Scholarships, college loans and in-state tuition.

It is frankly astounding to me that people aren’t making a bigger deal of the colossal impropriety of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s unauthorized trip to Syria. Where is the outrage?
I realize Democratic leaders and those they answer to have unmitigated […]
