OPINION: Is there a data center revolt brewing in Nevada? It's definitely a reality check. As people start to question the price of the digital gold rush, there’s hope for a safer, saner approach to the era of industrial AI. @jlnevadasmith @TheNVIndy thenevadaindependent.com/article/opinio…

So how did this feud between @Nicole4Nevada and @ZConine start? Colleagues @tabitha_mueller & @katecreynolds take a deep dive into the background of the fight that now dominates Nevada airwaves @TheNVIndy thenevadaindependent.com/article/seeds-…

Nevada's top gaming regulator tells Affinity CEO Primm is a 'grave concern' The Control Board highlights the border town’s welcoming presence for travelers, but the operator says it’s losing money, calls the pending closure “prudent.” @TheNVIndy thenevadaindependent.com/article/nevada…

Been part of dozens of debates but never one where the hatred between candidates was so palpable and where I felt like moderators saying less and letting the candidates go back and forth paid off more. Most important Dem primary in NV. Via @katecreynolds and @howardstutz.

Debate between Democrats running for Nevada AG devolves into mudslinging Senate Majority Leader Nicole Cannizzaro & Treasurer Zach Conine spent an hour criticizing each other’s integrity, records in office & campaign donors. @katecreynolds & me @TheNVIndy thenevadaindependent.com/article/debate…

Thanks to @Nicole4Nevada and @ZConine for a spirited debate tonight at the beautiful @BeverlyTheater. And thanks to @tabitha_mueller for a great job co-moderating. You should follow @katecreynolds and @howardstutz for live tweets and we will have story and video up in AM.

@ZConine @Nicole4Nevada @howardstutz @tabitha_mueller @RalstonReports The debate is officially done. Conine shakes Cannizzaro's hand at the end, telling her, "that was fun."

@ZConine @Nicole4Nevada @howardstutz @tabitha_mueller @RalstonReports Now discussing housing, Cannizzaro says she supports an end to the state's unique summary eviction process and that she's voted to repeal it in the past. Conine says his office has sought to protect rental assistance and housing programs to secure more funding.

@ZConine @Nicole4Nevada @howardstutz @tabitha_mueller @RalstonReports As a final question, @RalstonReports asks about the threat of federalized elections. Both candidates say they'd sue Trump to block any illegal or overreaching actions. Cannizzaro also says she'd support a state constitutional amendment to protect mail-in ballots.

.@Nicole4Nevada - "When you know ICE agents are violating the law, we're going to prosecute them for breaking the law. You want a prosecutor who knows how to prosecute a case." @TheNVIndy

@ZConine @Nicole4Nevada @howardstutz @tabitha_mueller @RalstonReports On ICE: Cannizzaro cites her work on a law last year that limited law enforcement from entering school grounds. Conine's previously said the bill was inadequate, now says that "we didn't do anything to prevent their mother or their father from being disappeared off the street."

@ZConine @Nicole4Nevada @howardstutz @tabitha_mueller @RalstonReports Conine says Cannizzaro should have gotten immigration protections passed earlier. Cannizzaro says he "should have the guts to stand on this stage and tell all those Latino caucus members that they didn't fight hard enough for the communities that they are in every single day."

.@Nicole4Nevada says she supports the summary eviction law. An effort two sessions ago failed. @ZConine agrees. #NevadaAGDebate

@ZConine @Nicole4Nevada @howardstutz @tabitha_mueller @RalstonReports Cannizzaro says she's fought Trump in the Legislature, although Conine criticizes her for supporting a bill last year that enacted voter ID requirements -- a compromise with Gov. Joe Lombardo. "Listen, I don't love that bill," Cannizzaro says. Lombardo ultimately vetoed it.

@ZConine @Nicole4Nevada @howardstutz @tabitha_mueller @RalstonReports .@tabitha_mueller gets the debate back on track, and asks Conine what he would do to fight Trump. Conine says he's happy at how often current AG Aaron Ford sues Trump and that he'd do the same. He cites his office's work on getting unclaimed property back to Nevadans.

@ZConine @Nicole4Nevada @howardstutz @tabitha_mueller @RalstonReports They're now discussing the death penalty. Conine says he supports its repeal -- it's "racist, uneconomical, and doesn't actually work," he says. Cannizzaro also says she's opposed to it.

@ZConine .@Nicole4Nevada - "I think that when it comes to when it comes to fighting Trump, I'll say that the other part of this, you have to come to this battle not yesterday, right, you have to come from the beginning, we have been fighting Trump at the legislature." 2/

@ZConine "I think it's important not just to go win that lawsuit, but to also have an idea on how to get that money back. Why we've been working with attorneys general around the country to help them put into place mechanics, just like we've done with unclaimed property."

Finally, a different topic. @tabitha_mueller asks @ZConine and @Nicole4Nevada about suing the Trump Administration. 1/
