We obtained a cache of internal city of Las Vegas emails showing @mayoroflasvegas has for more than a month been "so eager to provide comfort to financially hurting constituents that she often counterfactually downplays the very real threat of COVID-19..."
@mayoroflasvegas Emails show Goodman was supported by some, including ex-Lt. Gov. @Hutch4Nevada who praised her "Courage and Leadership," said she has "an army of supporters!" Emails also show mayor pro tem's COVID-19 denial and another councilman's fear he was exposed to the virus. Great read.
@mayoroflasvegas @Hutch4Nevada In emails, Goodman told a visitor struggling to receive a refund for a (condo) deposit that “the cure is going to be worse than the crisis,” touted a vaccine as “equally or more important” than testing...(and used FDR's iconic phrase): “We have nothing to fear but fear itself.”
On March 26, the city announced that Las Vegas parks and restrooms would remain open.
“Applause!!!” Goodman wrote in an email, responding to the press release.
Four days later, there was a new press release: “City Of Las Vegas To Close Playgrounds.”
