Trump campaign spox Tim Murtaugh is defending the decision to host an indoor rally tonight. In a statement per pool, he says that if people can gamble in casinos or "burn down small businesses in riots" they can "gather peacefully under the 1st Amendment" to hear from Trump.
In Reno, rioters ignited fires (including burning a car) and also tried to start a fire in City Hall. In Las Vegas, a police car was set on fire, but no small businesses were burned down. Casinos are open though, that is true.
Back to the rally tonight at Xtreme Manufacturing in Henderson: Attendees will get temperature checks, be provided masks and encouraged to wear them and hand sanitizer will be available.

BREAKING: Arkansas Attorney General Leslie Rutledge has just certified that the Supreme Court has overturned Roe. Abortion is now immediately illegal in Arkansas.

Abortion is now illegal in six states -- Arkansas, South Dakota, Kentucky, Louisiana, Missouri and Oklahoma.
Abortion is also banned after six-weeks under the private enforcement mechanism in Texas.
The states with pre-Roe bans are a little murky, but abortion is basically illegal (if not actually illegal) in Alabama, West Virginia, and Wisconsin.

If you want to watch today's COVID-19 state press call, you can watch it at the link below.

I'll also be live tweeting updates here in the below thread.
Michelle White, Gov. Steve Sisolak's chief of staff, says the governor has requested the state start hosting these calls again. White says the state is "closely watching the new COVID-19 cases in Nevada and associated metrics in our communities."
Candice McDaniel, now with the director's office in the state DHHS, notes that cases are higher in Clark County "likely due to a mix of increased travel, higher population density, the variant's spread, the heat forcing people indoors, and lower vaccination rates."
