Slow news day

It’s nice to see that the Las Vegas Golden Knights are set to return to the ice … but with Covid-19 positivity rates in Nevada having just passed 21%, is this any time for companies like MGM Resorts International to be touting—or even contemplating—pool season? For that matter, why has Gov. Steve Sisolak (D) seemingly gone into hiding during this dumpster fire?

In other sports news, the Las Vegas Raiders were dealt the ultimate diss by Fox Sports, which didn’t even bother to post score updates on its ticker of the Silver and Black’s exceedingly narrow but meaningless win over the Denver Broncos, which enabled the Raiders to end the season at 8-8, salvaging pride but little else.

Quote of the Day

“It is difficult to conceive of a more anti-democratic and anti-conservative act than a federal intervention to overturn the results of state-certified elections and disenfranchise millions of Americans. The fact that this effort will fail does not mean it will not do significant damage to American democracy.”—former Speaker of the House Paul Ryan.

Quote of the Day

“In these United States, when someone loses an election according to the constitutional processes, he is obligated to accept the loss. Otherwise, we live in lawless anarchy. Rejecting anarchy, and accepting the dictates of the Constitution, is no less than what [Sen. Ben Sasse (R)] says: It is ‘what self-government requires.'”—from a Washington Examiner editorial.
