I ate an entire pint of Talenti in the bathtub today. 10/10 would recommend.

We should rename the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans to “The American Ocean.” That way, when a pilot announces, “We’re now flying over the American Ocean,” everyone will be confused because there are two of them.

Imagine being a government executive and having to justify your entire job to a 19-year-old "efficiency expert" in a 15-minute interview. Absurd.

Can we pass a law requiring fast food breakfast until at least 11 AM? 10:30 is way too early to cut it off.

Canada and Mexico are the two largest sources of international tourists in Las Vegas. A weaker Canadian dollar and Mexican peso mean fewer visitors, which hurts our local economy. Raising prices on top of that will only make things worse.

He’s definitely trying, but Trump and Musk can’t just shut down USAID. USAID was created by the Foreign Assistance Act of 1961, and the President doesn’t have the power to dismantle it without congressional approval.

I’m not sure what Trump’s strategy with tariffs is—honestly, I doubt he knows either. What I do know is that plenty of people want to abolish the federal income tax and replace it with a national sales tax. This feels like a step in that direction.

A few years ago, I had a great team but worked for a company in chaos. Right before COVID, we got laid off. They shorted my severance by 30%, then sent me another check which resulted in a 50% overpayment. Months later, a letter arrived: “Payroll error. Please return the extra money.”

This is weighing on me tonight. LVMPD just updated their policy to comply with the Laken Riley Act, which means undocumented individuals, even for something as minor as stealing a sandwich, can now be handed over to ICE.

Many of the “DEI contracts” being eliminated are simply commitments to buy from minority-owned businesses. If you stop purchasing paper towels from a minority-owned business, you still need paper towels. Cutting DEI doesn’t cut costs it cuts diversity.

Registered Republicans now outnumber Democrats in Nevada—but it’s not as dramatic as it sounds. Nevada’s DMV auto-registers voters as independents. Declaring a party requires extra steps after registration, so the shift may reflect procedural quirks, not political tides.

As long as I have the power to influence hiring, I’ll prioritize building diverse teams. That’s a non-negotiable for me. If I’m ever told I can’t do that, I’ll find a new employer and take their highest performers with me.

A 25% tariff on Colombia? Looks like your morning coffee and weekend cocaine is about to get a lot pricier.

The fact that some children feel the need to carry papers proving their residency to school out of fear that ICE might target them there is heartbreaking.

With a moratorium on foreign aid in place, I’m sure we’ll see that money redirected to housing the unhoused, right? After all, they said we need to take care of our own people first before sending billions abroad.

I’m sitting tight and waiting for one of these freshly pardoned Jan 6 nut jobs to commit a new heinous crime. The campaign ads will write themselves. We can follow up with naming legislation after them—"The Boone Gator Skeeter Crenshaw Act,” banning gun ownership for pardoned insurrectionists.

Trump promised to cut energy costs by 50% in his first year if reelected, blaming Biden’s environmental policies. His executive order might boost energy stock prices, but let’s be real—the cost of energy won’t be going down for consumers.

EVERY HOTEL HAS BEEN SOLD OUT FOR WEEKS IN DC! Yeah, not buying it. I checked the Hilton app and found rooms for $100 in DC tomorrow. It will cost you more to stay in Vegas tomorrow night than it will Washington DC.

My TikTok feed is basically just 75% ridiculously hot guys trying to get me to subscribe to their OnlyFans. Listening to their painfully bad and wildly inaccurate takes on the TikTok ban over the past few days has been… excruciating. Truly excruciating.

Did you know ICE agents almost never have warrants allowing them to enter your property without your consent? They often trick people into thinking their administrative warrants are judicial ones. If ICE shows up, you’re not obligated to answer—your best move is to ignore them.

JFK delivered his iconic line, "Ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country," outdoors in 22°F weather during his inauguration on January 20, 1961. Trump, on the other hand, is moving his event indoors.

New policy idea: Fine fast-food restaurants $500 per car when their drive-thru lines spill off their property and onto the road. An In-N-Out and Raising Cane’s in the same shopping plaza ruined my commute today.
