“We appreciate the Riverside County Supervisors for honoring and respecting our tribal sovereignty," said Agua Caliente Tribal Chairman Jeff L. Grubbe.

"Experts", am I right? One day they'll say it's "Monday" but the next, they'll say it's "Tuesday". It's like what they're telling us just changes from day to day.

Casino openings have begun in San Diego County. We'll see how they go in Riverside County later this week...

Spotlight 29, Morongo and Tortoise Rock casinos all set to open Friday. is.gd/YlQXbc

@DrTomBenjamin Hmm. I do not recall getting one from police. I remember asking his friends and neighbors I met but they said they didn't have any photos of him. I remember them saying he was extremely reclusive. Sorry I don't have a better answer.

@risamjohnson In the murder - suicide death of a prominent physician in Rancho Mirage was there a picture of the murderer ever published?

"I urge tribal governments to reconsider and instead make those determinations based on how they align with the current local public health conditions and the statewide stage of reopening," Newsom said. desertsun.com/story/news/hea…
