You all probably know this

but, JIC,

AdamLaxalt moved to Nevada about 5 minutes ago to run for office. But he's already made a name for himself by strong arming regulators and using his office to benefit his billionaire puppet master, GOP Megadonor Sheldon Adelson. https://thenevadaindependent.com/article/indy-primer-everything-you-need-to-know-about-the-laxalt-burnett-secret-recording/

AdamLaxalt also accepted $10,000 from Elliot Broidy, a disgraced former RNC official who paid a Playboy model he impregnated $1.6 million, and just last week Laxalt raised money with John Bolton, someone w/ a history of threatening women.

In short, Laxalt is an empty suit being propped up by a billionaire who wants to own the #nvgov mansion, and he's a hypocrite who claims to stand with victims of sexual assault when he's surrounding his campaign w/ sexual harassers and predators

know what the Adelson Game Plan is. Laxalt is just another Adelson Flunkie,and far right wing ideologue. Encounter this Guy a few years ago during a Political Debate forum. What a truly empty Suit is so correct.

Cool. I just always assumed you were in MN, where I used to be myself. Adored Wellstone!

I'm not in NV but could drive there in about an hour so I am interested in what happens there. Adelson drives me bonkers, he is such a creep!

Go Dems! GOTV!!!
