I bet you had no idea that China wants to pillage America's lithium reserves like we're one of their subservient client states–and that the Biden admin, led by @JenGranholm, is poised to help them do so!

We know the Chinese Communist Party is pillaging Africa for rare earth elements and other raw materials integral to modern life. What disturbingly few people know is how close Beijing came—and might still be coming—to doing the same thing here!

Lithium Americas, a Canadian company whose single largest shareholder has direct ties to the CCP, wants to mine the largest lithium deposit in North America with the benefit of taxpayer-funded loans—and the Biden admin is doing nothing about it!

We have updated results! This batch includes 20,600+ mail ballots

We're still waiting on the rest of Washoe County's Election Day results, as well as rural (and red) Douglas and Lyon counties.
Expect GOP to boost margins in the statewide races more tonight, but...

As we reported earlier, there are at least 16,000 mail ballots not included in tonight's results still to be counted, plus whatever shows up in the mail.
Likely tens of thousands of Clark mail ballots to be counted as well.

Tomorrow night, Nevada may find itself at the center of the political universe. Control of the U.S. Senate may hinge on who wins the Silver State. And who wins Nevada may come down to purple Washoe County.

(THREAD) Ever notice the media trend - it's decades old - not to mention the political affiliation of accused officials if they are Democrats? The slaying of Las Vegas reporter Jeff German by an elected county Democrat has the media daring not to name the suspect's party. (1)
Some stories, of course, mention the suspect's party affiliation, lower down. They kind of have to. Jeff German's stories caused Robert Telles to lose his primary a few weeks ago. But not NBC News. No mention at all in initial draft. (2)
The media knows many people do not read past the headline or first paragraphs. If a Republican had killed a reporter, that would be big news to the media. A Democrat, however, becomes a "politician" or "elected official." (3)
Huge weekend for Democratic gubernatorial candidates getting major newspaper endorsements. (THREAD WARNING)
In #iagov, @FredHubbell got endorsed by the 2 largest papers in Iowa on Sunday.
1. @DMRegister: "He is perhaps the most qualified person in decades to seek Iowa’s governorship"
2. @gazettedotcom: "Hubbell is the best choice to dramatically change course at the Statehouse."
