Assemblyman Marvel makes a decent point about the politics of what Nevada Democrats are trying to do to Republican L.G. Brian Krolicki. They want headlines, they don’t care what the end result is – they want to bloody Krolicki up a bit in case he wants to make a run for the U.S. Senate. Pretty sleazy stuff. And sadly, what’s happening in Vegas, ain’t staying there. This is a repeat of what happened in the Nevada leg races this past year. Dem U.S. Senator Harry Reid and Dem AG Catherine Cortez Masto – practicing some of those new politics practiced to America this past year. From the Review Journal:
“We’ll indict Mr. Munro,” quipped Assemblyman John Marvel, R-Battle Mountain, after a legislative auditor said the attorney general’s office had written off $8 million in debts without required approval of the state Board of Examiners. Keith Munro is the assistant secretary of state.
Marvel made his comments during a meeting in which the Legislature’s Audit Subcommittee reviewed audits of the attorney general’s office and other state agencies.
After the hearing, Marvel said he was joking, but wanted to make a point that he believes the recent indictment of Republican Lt. Gov. Brian Krolicki was politically motivated.
