2) Easter Update: A Little History Lesson A portion of this video was all we saw, as it is nearly feature-length. I plan to show more of it next time because it’s chockful of good info and stuff which we all lived through, but may have forgotten. This segment feature Milton William “Bill” Cooper, a talk show host and author (Behold a Pale Horse) and he was murdered for speaking out against 9/11 being a foreign action 2 months later.

Janet Butcher – Update on Drag Queen Story Hour (DQSH) and the Library Board. Main Library Board member, Jeff Scott, was fired from Berkley Library for banning religious books. Now he’s here and is promoting DQSH and gets persnickety if questioned about it. The Library Board’s next meeting is next Wed, Apr 19, 4:00pm at the Northwest Reno Library, 2325 Robb Dr.
Update on County Commission meeting with new Commissioner, Clara Andriola. They had Chair and Vice-Chair elections and Alexis Hill is the new Chair; Jeanne Herman is the new Vice-Chair. Alexis will have to start running for her reelection in the next 6-12 mo.
The Commission decided to continue to rent storage units for the voting machines for the time being, with the understanding that they can get out of it if they decide to build their own building.
The Commission voted for $5.5M for the NV CARES campus (for homeless) and approved another $28M for another “homeless industry” project. New Commissioner Clara Andriola voted yes on both.
There is a left-wing Elections Group – left wing group that swept into AZ, MI and any place that had questionable election activities. The Commission voted to spend $100K for this group for their “study” on our last election. This was voted down last meeting, but brought back with the new Commissioner who voted for it (as did Mike Clark). $600K for same group did not pass, but $100K contract did.
Registrar of Voters asked for another $300K for 3 more employees. Mike Clark asked if there were any HR complaints against her (RoV). She said yes, but she didn’t know what they were. Big turn-over in the RoV office; no one left who was there last year.
Lynn Chapman – Legislative Update
This is a critical week because If a bills has not yet been introduced in Committee by this Friday, Apr 14, the bill will die unheard.
Thank you from Lynn and Janine Hansen for all your calls and letters and opinions submitting to the Legislature…. it HAS helped! Keep it up.
ACTION ALERT!!! Here’s how to SUBMIT YOUR OPINION in 5 easy steps:
- Go to www.leg.state.nv.us-> blue toolbar across the top, click on NELIS
- Click on the top toolbar LEGISLATION -> just below that tab, see ALL BILLS & RESOLUTIONS
- Type in the bill # (no space between AB or SB and the #)
- Scroll down -> click on the bill and you will find Overview, (full) Text, and so forth
- Scroll down to the very bottom, where you can leave Public Opinions and share yours.
SB131 – Abortion Tourism passed in Committee
SB155 – Prohibits counties, cities from enforcing health and safety ordinances in homeless encampments (viewed as discrimination). When the “unhoused” commit crimes, they spend some time in jail, but when they come out, there is a special program that gets them clean and sober and gives them housing and helps them get their lives back. This program is in lieu of paying a fine (which they never can do). Impressive success.
SB172 – Removes the required parental consent or notification for minors to receive contraception. Parental Rights are violated.
Friday, Apr 14, 1PM Hearing
SB294 – Removes the crime of unsafe firearms storage. Hasn’t yet had a work session (where the Committee talks amongst themselves and no public testimony is allowed).
SB394 – Property tax bill – raises prop tax above the legal cap.
AB117 – Domestic Terrorist bill – no work session scheduled.
AB242 – Mandates mechanical/electronic voting machines, even in counties where that was already voted on. Prohibits use of paper except for mail-ins. Nye County Clerk spoke about paper ballots and provided great testimony. More ‘cons’ than ‘pros’.
AB231 – Universal Commercial Code (UCC) was amended to include social scoring because of Janine’s persistence in showing the bill’s sponsor the error of her ways.
AB320 – Changes mail-ballots to be received by the last day of Early Voting (currently it’s allowed 4 days after Election Day).
NO HEARING IS SET. Contact the Committee Chair Michelle Gorelow to demand a hearing. Michelle.gorelow@asm.state.nv.us
AB354, AB355, SB171 – Firearms Bills – Joint hearing (Senate + Assembly).
AB383 – Contraception Bill has been amended to include abortion and chemical abortion, as well as gender dysphoria treatment and surgery Originally a contraception bill, now an abortion bill.
AB386 – Creates a licensing board with complex bureaucratic regulation for midwifery. Two midwives in LV want this, but all the others do not and will likely leave the state if passed.
AB557 (and SB439) – Planned Parenthood sex education. AB557 changes “opt-in” for “opt-out” for the school sex ed. SB439 does not add that element, but is the same otherwise.
AJR6 – National Popular Vote – will change our State Constitution.
ACR7 – “Study” on wealth taxes to make sure wealthy are paying their fair share.
Nicôl Herris – 1) Artificial intelligence (AI) – (check out Chuck Muth on this topic) is how they changed the ballots. If everyone is using AI for elections, we’ll always lose. When someone calls your home, don’t speak. AI captures the voice and uses it in nefarious ways.
2) FedNow – come July 2023, our federal banking system is forcing all banks to join this system and all transactions (cash, credit, debit, PayPal, Venmo) will be recorded and monitored. Nothing is sacred or private. https://www.frbservices.org/financial-services/fednow/about.html
3) Social media influencers – how do we beat the Dems at their social influencing? What is a social influencer? Someone who suggests how to think, how to vote, what to eat, how to control our lives. Who do we know in our sphere of influence who has 2000, 5000 or more people in their sphere? We have to change our thinking… how did Starbucks create a movement and become such a social influencer? If you have info, share it with us. We must all be visionaries and creative.
Donald Fossum – went to County Commission at Beadles’ strong encouragement. Clara Andriola was a rodeo official, so she had a tremendous amount of supporters show up for photo ops with her. Donald thought Mike Clark is on the ball and very good up there. Donald asked who the Commission catered to regarding the state of emergency for COVID. We are in a political divide, not a people divide.
WCRCC – Washoe County Central Committee officers elections at the next WCRCC meeting, April 24. One Zoom Townhall and 2 candidate Townhalls (1 has already past), all on the www.washoegop.org website only. There is a Townhall meeting this Friday (April 14), 6:00-8:00pm at Headquarters, 3652 S. Virginia, Ste C-9 to meet the candidates.
Nicholas St Jon – Washoe Patriots. This coming Saturday 4/15, 11:30am, 3175 Goldy Way, Spirit Filled Church – working on prepping: all aspects of communication (in the case of a blackout on traditional communication channels) and/or a financial breakdown (instead of having a gold or silver brick or coin, what about melting it down to make a nice piece of jewelry…also barterable?).
Nicholas is also throwing his hat in the ring and running for Washoe County Central Committee Chair at their election April 24.
Jim Benthin – Election Integrity Project California (EIPCa) has filed a lawsuit against the State of CA, claiming an unconstitutional election process, which was kicked out of District Court. The case was taken to the 9th Circuit, where it was determined to be legal and 10 Counties in CA are now going to be audited. Lawsuit in AZ has also been filed. Consider sending EIPCa some money to fight these battles. www.eip-ca.com.
Paul Larson – 3M illegals are entering the US each year. They are then going to Panama, using former US military bases to regroup, get cards, get Medicaid and learn the ways to get by in the US while being illegal.
Next Meeting – Wednesday, April 26, same time, same place.
