Knighting Ceremony, Meetup Schedule, and Show Outro
The episode wraps up with a formal knighting ceremony for Susan Stevens and Brian Mosier, followed by a reading of the global meetup schedule. The hosts briefly discuss the "Nevada takeover" by Democratic Socialists and Mike Lindell's plans to launch a social media site called "Pillow Talk." The show ends with the traditional sign-off and a musical mix.
Reports from the Nevada caucus indicate that precinct captains were asked to sign non-disparagement agreements (NDAs). The hosts link this to Michael Bloomberg's frequent use of NDAs and discuss the diminishing influence of mainstream media outlets like the New York Times and MSNBC.
Nevada Caucus, Google Forms and Smoke-Filled Rooms
Following the Iowa caucus disaster, Nevada Democrats announced they would use a "tool" based on Google Forms preloaded on iPads to tally results. Critics argue that using a consumer-grade Google product for election results is insecure and prone to failure. The discussion traces the history of the Democratic party from "smoke-filled rooms" to the current complex caucus and primary systems.
Nevada Democratic Convention Unrest, Bernie Sanders Supporters
Chaos erupted at the Nevada Democratic Convention as Bernie Sanders supporters protested perceived rule changes and the denial of delegate status for 64 individuals. State Party Chair Roberta Lange reported receiving death threats after the proceedings were abruptly adjourned. While party leaders express concern over potential violence at the upcoming national convention in Philadelphia, Sanders has denounced violence while maintaining that the process was rigged.
