Myers: Is Heck really an abortion opponent?

Abortion has been an issue between Republican Joe Heck and Democrat Catherine Cortez Masto in their U.S. Senate race. This surprised me because I didn’t remember Heck being particularly opposed to abortion when he was a state legislator.

It also released hacked emails of Hillary Clinton staffers trying to make sure Hillary was in charge of getting the chicken back to their side of the road, and employees of the Clinton Foundation trying to get jobs so they could lure the chicken back with gourmet chicken feed.

Commentary: So where exactly does Dennis Hof live?

I thought that last week I had written my one and only editorial regarding Dennis Hof running for Assembly until I woke up Thursday morning and scanned my email for the current news headlines.

Myers: Leading by sitting down

Former University of Nevada coach Chris Ault, on Colin Kaepernick’s protest: “You never lead by sitting down – during the national anthem or anywhere – so for me it’s not the message that’s troubling, it’s the platform and the way it was delivered.”
