"Less than 24 hours ago, Hof celebrated his birthday along with pornographic actor Ron Jeremy, former Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio, and anti-tax crusader Grover Norquist."
Quite the soiree. thenevadaindependent.com/article/brothe…
More importantly, though, Hof was running for state Assembly. It's too late to take him off the ballot, so here's what happens:
County clerks will post a notice that the candidate is deceased at every polling place....

...If Hof wins, the office is vacated and must be filled as if the candidate died in office. Nevada’s Constitution requires that the board of county commissioners fill a vacant legislative seat with a person of the same political party.

LOL congrats on your retirement, you terrible human
This isn't an automatic +1 for VA Senate Dems, but it's close. Part of the equation is whether Rs can find a strong candidate to replace Sen. Dick Black (R-Plastic Fetus).
Happy early birthday to me

Ya know, I never really felt like I lived far away from DC until I did the ride back to Arlington in full fight-or-flight mode. Turns out it's actually about 80 miles
I have never been so grateful for an Uber driver's silence
...or so upset that I don't possess any caffeine-free tea

Former Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio - who was found guilty of criminal contempt then pardoned - has filed a new lawsuit against media outlets for incorrectly stating that his conviction was for a felony. He's seeking $300,500,000 in punitive damages.
This is in addition to the $147 million he's seeking from the New York Times.
As before, Arpaio is represented by Larry Klayman.

Klayman's other clients have included Jerome Corsi and all U.S. police officers, Jews and Caucasians.

This is a MUST READ article. LOADED with great information and some players you may not have heard about. bigleaguepolitics.com/cnn-just-says-…
"A high-level member of the intelligence community who witnessed the meeting said that Clapper discussed going to one of three female Supreme Court justices to make the case that alleged Russian interference could invalidate Trump’s claim to the presidency."
"Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Seymour Hersh admitted that Seth Rich was the source for Wikileaks’ release of DNC emails in 2016, not a Russian hack. Hersh also said that Clapper & CIA director John Brennan helped to create the Russia narrative against Trump."

1. Great thread on the 19th century history of the @gop, a party which was quite different from what it is today. It made me think of Oregon Senator Mark Hatfield, an alum of my university, who represented a 20th century variety of Republican also no longer welcome in that party.
2. This is an excellent obituary of Mark Hatfield--a pro-environment, anti-war, pro-civil rights, anti-Gingrich variety of Republican who was basically read out of the party in the late 1990s. wweek.com/portland/artic…
3. Hatfield was no leftist, but when he was a college student at Willamette University he brought to campus Paul Robeson (a renown African-American Communist) and Marian Anderson (an African-American singer who the DAR had banned from singing in Constitution Hall in 1939).

Some of the things former Maricopa Co. sheriff Joe Arpaio says are defamatory in his lawsuit against the @nytimes are things he bragged about on television while in office.
Others are obviously protected statements of opinion.
Others are demonstrably true. For example, Arpaio was found guilty of contempt of court for defying a court order on racial profiling.

Sheriff Sam Page? (first person quoted in story)? - CSPOA. Next sheriff quoted, Mike Lewis?- CSPOA. The person who organized the event? - Sheriff Thomas Hodgson? - CSPOA.

WaPo missed the kicker - this was a CSPOA event. So what? WELL...
Back in '016 I posted a little story, a placeholder really (to show I'd been on top of this) that documented an extraordinary unnoticed pattern in which the Trump campaign had courted CSPOA leadership. The County Sheriffs and Police Officers Association sounds so bland, right ?
[4thgenwar.wordpress.com/2016/10/26/a-s…] What if the Trump campaign, I asked, "had cultivated close ties to an anti-government organization with the apparent goal of overthrowing the federal government and whose leader has been likened, by a sitting U.S. Senator, to a domestic terrorist ?"
