@jedirich_ @HardRockHotels While the former Mirage will stay dormant for a while.

When the Hard Rock Hotel opens in 2027, Las Vegas is officially entering a new era. The skyline is changing right in front of us — and that guitar tower is going to be impossible to ignore. 🎸🏙️🔥 #vegas #hardrock

@paddysparg1 @MisterMcphunk @grok @LasVegasLocally @realdavidsauro She can sell her ownership stake to her daughter and SIL, and open her up to purchase with her son.

@MisterMcphunk @constructionQT @grok @LasVegasLocally @realdavidsauro She owns the Dallas Mavericks!! 🏀

Billionaire casino owner Miriam Adelson is, by far, the most powerful person in Nevada... despite no longer owning any casinos in Nevada.

@MisterMcphunk @grok @LasVegasLocally @realdavidsauro She’s interested in money. Money buys infuence. Influence controls global economy. Thank you for attending my TED talk.

@constructionQT @grok @LasVegasLocally @realdavidsauro Oh you think that Petty things like sports matter to her and her family?? Nah she's more interested in influencing wars and the global economy

@grok @LasVegasLocally @realdavidsauro Just wait until she’s the lead horse in the NBA expansion team bid.

Miriam Adelson's power in Nevada stems from unmatched scale across wealth, politics, and media. She's the state's richest resident by a wide margin—net worth around $36-40 billion per Forbes and Bloomberg as of 2026, dwarfing the next Nevadans like the Fertittas at ~$3.6 billion. This gives her outsized economic sway in a casino-driven state. Her political giving tops Nevada donors, with over $100 million to federal races and PACs in recent cycles alone (per OpenSecrets), far exceeding state norms and funding candidates who align with her priorities. The Adelson family owns the Las Vegas Review-Journal—Nevada's largest and most influential newspaper—shaping narratives on local issues from business to policy. Together, these create leverage: money moves elections, the paper frames debates, and her fortune anchors influence even without direct casino ownership here since the 2022 Venetian sale. It's structural power, not just presence.

@JTTheBrick Young people don’t play golf. And they don’t drink. Nor do they gamble. This is a huge issue for future Vegas.

Las Vegas is currently experiencing a golf problem. Several established courses have recently gone private. Many exclusive golf courses in Vegas are only available to those who have significant money to spend. Some of the older courses are struggling to stay in business with increased expenses including water and maintenance. Tourism is down a bit and some of the rates are ridiculous similar to many casino properties. Young players and others on fixed incomes will struggle to play and afford these prices. It’s the “haves” and “have nots” and it’s not getting better anytime soon.

A $10 billion "sports ecosystem" just entered the Las Vegas NBA arena race. Starr Vegas Development is pitching a 25,000-seat NBA arena that is also a 50,000-seat soccer/concert venue — connected to a new casino resort — all on 63 acres near the south end of the Strip.

They say $6 billion is already secured. A "Don King boxing museum" will be part of the development. 8newsnow.com/news/starr-veg…

@OliLondonTV It’s like the Fyre Festival!!!

Influencers turn on “nightmare” Coachella; say they have been scammed out of thousands, complain about huge queues for showers and overpriced food. “Getting inside the festival is a nightmare.” “Our original $20,000 reservation we only get $10k back.” “Scammed out of $3k.”

@LeadingReport And she felt like we really needed an announcement about that?! No shit Sherlock, we’re good!

NEW: Nikki Haley says she will not run for president in 2028.

@Kwalt23 Was at the game…what a ride! Carter Hart killed it. Aiden Hill would have lost that game fo us. I said what I said. That kid absolutely played his best game and what a moment to witness!! Let’s go VGK!!!

Good morning VGK fans! You weren’t dreaming yesterday, we really beat the avalanche in OT, clinched our spot in the playoffs, and are 5-0-1 in the #goldentorts era!

@VGKgoaliegirl STUD!!!!

Carter Hart 4/11/2026 🤭 ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED? Say his name bitches! CARTER HART 😏

@SDtoLasVegas $10 for a shitty half bottle of Aquafina and shit rooms. BUT - no smoking for that trade off.

Booked a room at Park MGM for $19 lol. How is that place these days?

@LeadingReport Good. Enough is enough. End this war and be done.

BREAKING: President Trump tells China he will implement a 50% tariff if they supply arms to Iran.

@VegasUncomped I was at the game and seeing Hart was absolutely astonishing. He played so well. Good for him!!

It hasn't been pretty. But we’re in the playoffs. 8 of 9 seasons. Hart was outstanding and it's coming together at the right time. LFG! Go Knights Go #vegasborn

oh and by the way... THE VEGAS GOLDEN KNIGHTS SECURED THEIR SPOT TO GO BACK TO THE STANLEY CUP PLAYOFFS!!!! ⚔️ #VegasBorn | #StanleyCup

@JosephMLombardo He literally has not. Try worrying about the constituents, not this gambling thug.

Bruno Mars has become synonymous with Las Vegas. It’s fitting to have “Bruno Mars Drive” be a part of this city. Congratulations on all your success — and thanks for choosing Las Vegas to kick off your world tour.

@KerryBilicki @VitalVegas @LasVegasLocally Too bad Mirage remodel is in a holding pattern.

Lots of work behind the former Mirage main tower looks suspiciously like a theater. Concert venue perhaps. So many great concert memories at The Joint at the old Hard Rock. Even more excited about the new location now. 🤘😝🤘 @VitalVegas @LasVegasLocally

@LasVegasLocally @BrunoMars Why is Bruno Mars the unofficial mascot of Las Vegas? This is so dumb. Beyond dumb.

Governor Lombardo presented @BrunoMars with an official Nevada flag today, which is functionally a "Key to the State." Under NV law, you are now required to let Mr. Mars sleep on your couch and eat your food whenever he wants.

@kevinmcmahill @LVMPD @Sheriff_LVMPD That’s my Sherriff!!!!

Campaign recap 🎥👇 Unopposed. Unmatched. A reflection of trust. A result of the work. Thank you to everyone who supported and stood with us 🙏 #McMahillForSheriff #ForTheWin

@LasVegasLocally “Paused” until June.

Don't panic but construction on the Las Vegas train station for the $21 billion Brightline West high speed train project appears to be stalled. No workers have been seen on the job site for about 2 weeks, according to multiple sources.
