"Town hall is now a code word for, ‘Let's go bully the shit out of somebody in public," says NV's GOP congressman @MarkAmodeiNV2. He adds,"...I don't need to be screamed at by a bunch of people who are just pissed because I got elected." via @birenbomb

@SelenaTorresNV @JoeLombardoNV Children are not going hungry at school. Free breakfast and free lunch. The middle class/wealthy suburbs Summerlin and Anthem don’t want free lunch but if they need it, parents apply, qualify, and kids eat.

.@JoeLombardoNV you’re right, politics has no place in school cafeterias. I know that first hand because I’ve worked lunch duty. No school should deny a student lunch because they don’t have the resources to pay. It’s time we have consistent funding for school lunches.

Inbox: Gov. Joe Lombardo highlights existing school meal programs for Nevada students in need. Statement comes in response to a pledge by legislative Democrats to provide free school meals to all Nevada children after Lombardo vetoed a similar measure last year.

On the first day of school, @ClarkCountySch has 1,139 openings for teachers and other licensed personnel. Several schools have 12 or more vacancies. A major setback for students who will go through the year without a consistent teacher. @JosephMLombardo, #nvleg and the public need to realize that money won't fix this problem. In fact, it can make it worse. The district needs policy changes to retain more teachers. 1. Punish rulebreakers to restore safety and respect in schools. 2. Get rid of dumbed-down grading standards. 3. Enforce the new cell phone policy strictly.

Mi gente. Who else feels like this when you hire people to clean or do yard work? I put it off for so long because it didn’t feel right because it’s what WE do NOT what we hire OTHER people to do. But I need the help and Im grateful for it.

A few weeks ago, I had folks doing some cleaning and planting at my house. They were all Hispanic. As a descendent of sharecroppers and domestics, the scene felt odd, uncomfortable. I wrote about it here: washingtonpost.com/opinions/2023/…

I guess if the A’s come to Las Vegas they should change their name to the Nevada Gold Diggers as a nod to Nevada’s mining history….and for no other reason 😉

Good morning to readers. Kyiv remains in Ukrainian hands. Please RT this thread. It’s an important one. Some news: I’m leaving NPR as part of the layoffs that dramatically cut the org's workforce. I’ve decided to go back into Ukraine to keep reporting. But this time, alone.

@ChuckMuth Let the man play. This is not insightful, helpful or intelligently critical. It’s just you being mean. Be better than that, Chuck.

This is so sad. Ex-gov Sisolak sitting alone pumping spare change in a slot machine hoping to augment his unemployment benefits. I guess shutting down the Strip didn’t earn him a lucrative no-show board position w/some gaming company. Payback’s a bee-otch.

It’s finally official. My dad gets to ask if there is a doctor in the house with an affirmative answer. Lol. Grateful for both of my parents being there for both the first part of my educational journey and the last. Dr. James. It has a nice ring to it.

@Networkinvegas Ooh you got triggered! You didn’t “report” anything you gave your opinion. Now exactly which Dem policy leads this? Cuz I don’t know of any R or D policies that support this.
