Reports of Vegas' death are greatly exaggerated. While the middle class cuts back on extras, wealthy tourists keep showing up. The share of visitors from families making over $150k recently doubled. The pattern echoes what's happening across the US: thenevadaindependent.com/article/whats-…

TIL that nearly 250 votes have already been cast in Nevada's primary election (more than a month away) thanks to the state's online voting system. This and more interesting nuggets in Indy Elections, @TheNVIndy's weekly newsletter on all things election.

A DHS release today highlights "an illegal alien facing felony charges for animal torture" who was arrested by LVMPD and is in ICE custody. Fits Trump campaign messaging focusing on deporting criminals—and not the crackdown that's cost voter support. dhs.gov/news/2026/05/0…

There's lots to criticize about AI (and I never use it to write), but I tried vibe coding for this piece and it was very impressive! Scripting with AI helped me quickly get data going back 30 years and see self-funding spike. More on our methodology: thenevadaindependent.com/article/want-t…

The number of Democrats running in #NV02 has fallen to nine. Josh Hebert and Samuel White are throwing their support behind Morgan Wadsworth as part of a pact 5 "anti-establishment" candidates made to consolidate support. Two of the other participants are still running.

NEW: A record number of Nevada House candidates are funding their own campaigns this year. They're not all that happy about it. Rep. Susie Lee (D-NV) called a loan to her 2016 campaign "a mistake." "It sucks," a prominent 2026 self-funder told me. thenevadaindependent.com/article/want-t…

"The White House … basically just called up the speaker and said, 'I need this done because I'm out of razzle dazzle, and I need the money to run Homeland,'" @MarkAmodeiNV2 told me. "At least they acknowledged that the Congress does have a function." thenevadaindependent.com/article/congre…

.@repdinatitus today introduced a resolution that would keep members of Congress and staff out of prediction markets. “No Member of Congress should be able to profit off their insider knowledge by placing informed bets on ... platforms like Kalshi and Polymarket,” she said.

Titus pushes back on the Trump passport plan:
Dina Titus@repdinatitus

I urge @SecRubio to not place @POTUS’s picture on U.S. passports, one of our nation’s most important identity documents. American passports have historically reflected enduring national symbols such as landmarks, historical moments, and foundational ideals, rather than elevating any single contemporary political figure. Introducing the likeness of a recent or living political leader would raise serious concerns about the politicization of a nonpartisan federal document.

One bit we didn't have room for on how @RepSusieLee tries to get Cabinet officials on the record in support of her goals. "Many people like to take it as a chance to get a film for Twitter," she said. "I like to take it as a chance to make a point or get something accomplished."

I asked @RepSusieLee how Amodei's retirement will affect the delegation's relationship with the Trump admin. "I expect us to have the majority in the House and possibly the Senate," she said. "We're going to have a seat at the table come November." bit.ly/4t1SWDG

Reps. Ro Khanna (D-CA) and Steven Horsford (D-NV) are at the College of Southern Nevada today to talk about AI and jobs with OpenAI exec Chris Lehane. Lehane began the event by speaking about AI’s economic reach — in Nevada, he said, ChatGPT has nearly 1 million weekly users.

"Let's face it, they're struggling with finishing the deal right now," @MarkAmodeiNV2 said when asked about the Iran war on C-SPAN. "If anybody doesn't think this is going to have an effect on the midterms, I just simply disagree with them."
