My Fellow Patriots,
I am excited about our upcoming meeting this Thursday! Eddie Lorton, the only Conservative Candidate running for Mayor of Reno (https://eddielorton.com/), will be speaking about the past, present and future (I am sure) dysfunction of the Reno City Council. I can assure you that you have no idea how bad it is. I have also invited other candidates to come and introduce themselves to you. As this is an election year, I think it is imperative that you get to meet as many of the candidates as possible so you can make informed decisions at the ballot box. I know, I know. I meant Post Office box! Joel Beck (http://beckforcongress.us/) will be introducing himself as Candidate for Congressional District 2, a seat currently held by Mark Amodei. There will also be a speaker informing us about the dysfunction of our Registrar of Voter office. We all know about how the DMV is changing registrations without the voter being aware of it. But wait! There’s more! I hope to see you all there.

Meeting at the Spanish Springs Library 14 April 22 Thursday 6:30pm

Breaking News Bulletin
January 30, 2022
The Secretary of State (SOS) held three days (Jan. 19, 20 and 21) of zoom “workshops”. These meetings discussed proposed Election Regulations to be added to the 2021 Election law, NRS 293. NRS 293 and these proposed Regulations involve Voter Rights, and a fair and honest election process.
What’s Next?
Zoom “Hearings” on these proposed Regulations will be held Feb. 2, Feb. 3, Feb. 4 and Feb. 22. This is dragging out a process that should have ended with the Workshops on Jan. 21. Then the Legislative Commission of 12 Legislators are to meet in late Feburary to vote if these Regulations should become law. These proposed Election Regulations further erode the election process. Only the full body of the Legislature is to enact codified laws, not a Legislative Commission!
What YOU Can Do
1. Attend the February zoom Hearings (8 AM – Noon). See Secretary of State website (https://www.nvsos.gov/sos) (look for the Notice of Workshops in the center of the webpage), or call the Washoe GOP office for details @ (775) 827-1900.
2. Most importantly, we are asking that you email Secretary of State, Barbara Cegavske (sosmail@sos.nv.gov) and ask that no action be taken on these Regulations. Mention that you are Republican and a voter.
Express your concern about the Proposed Election Regulations, mail-in ballots, drop boxes, electronic voting systems and machine like Dominion, longer times to vote (ballot-in ballots start being mailed April 30 and Primary Election day is June 14); cleaning of our voter rolls by Soros founded and funded ERIC which is a left wing voter registration drive disguised as voter roll clean up; same day voter registration on Election day; ballot harvesting; on-line voting etc. All of these
are cause for concern about a fair and honest election. Mention if you have concerns about the NV 2020 election being fair and honest.
Mention that the people of NV support: paper ballots with a carbon copy, no electronic voting machines/systems; in person voting on Election day only with absentee voting by military, sick or absent from state; picture ID and signature at polls; only American citizens with proof can register to vote; no extended voting days, no Drop boxes; no mail-in ballots, etc. We support a return to a fair and honest election process.
The liberal left and Democrats are driving this agenda of an unfair election process and laws in NV. They want to insure the Democrats win at the polls and maintain control at every level … local, state and federal.
Ask that no further action be taken on these proposed Regulations, and that you do not want them to become part of NV Election Law.
Emails Can Make a Difference…Please take action to stop this Election law power grab by the Secretary of State. Share this with friends and neighbors and ask them to contact the SOS also.

My Fellow Patriots,
This is the Commissioner meeting in which to speak out. On the agenda (*see below) of this Special Meeting is whether to enforce, or not, the mask mandate passed down from the occupier of the Governor’s Mansion. Businesses need us; the Washoe County Commissioners need to hear from us. The WCCommisioner Chair has not allowed this item to be placed on the agenda for months, even at the request of one of the Commissioners. We are at a crossroads. We either show up in numbers or get in line to eventually be masked and vaxed. This is the road in which we are now travelling. As you well know, I do not put out Special Editions of the Patriotic Review without cause. I know that you likely are inundated with “calls to action” on a frequent basis with respect to what is happening in our community and our country. I do not send this lightly. We need to let our representatives that this cannot stand.
Signs and speaking to the Commissioners are welcome. Angry diatribes have not, are not, and will not have any effectiveness. Calm, logical, peaceful, intelligent communication is the goal. Please keep in mind, they are our representatives. They work for us. They are not our enemies. If you cannot attend, please email the Commissioners (see below).
*”5. Discussion and decision on Washoe County’s position regarding the Governor’s COVID-19 Emergency Declaration Directive 047 of July 27, 2021, requiring facemasks be worn indoors in the State of Nevada. Possible actions include but are not limited to taking a position by the county on its intent to enforce or not enforce the mask mandate against businesses and the general public. Manager’s Office. (All Commission Districts.) FOR POSSIBLE ACTION”
The issue is not about health, it is about freedom and the right to choose for ourselves.
Stand up, speak up, or submit. You decide. I’ll be there and I hope to see you there as well.

Hello Fellow Patriots,
The legislative session is fast coming to an end and we can expect an effort to pass a great many bills in a very short period of time. Most of these bills will be bad for Nevada. As you are probably aware there are some sneaky, underhanded political maneuverings taking place. For example, the bad bill, AB286 that was amended to remove all of the language about “no guns allowed” was regurgitated in the form of SB452. This was introduced by Nicole Cannizzaro under a faux “emergency”. I guess there is no level as to how low they will stoop to push their agenda through.
Speaking of low, our school board will be meeting on May 25. The major item they will be discussing is the horrid SHARE (sex ed) curriculum. This was written largely by Planned Parenthood. You don’t suppose they would have an agenda, do you? The board was supposed to be discussing their equally horrid Social Justice Curriculum. Thanks to the outcry from patriots they postponed it (again) to the June 8th agenda. I suspect this action was under the mistaken impression that we would not show up on the May 25. They couldn’t be more mistaken. We will continue to show up at every school board meeting until the ALL of the trustees understand that we will not tolerate our school board working against educating our children to the standard we pay for and expect. Our kids deserve better and that will only happen if we stand up. If you cannot attend, please email your public comment to: publiccomments@washoeschools.net
In this edition you will also find an excerpt of Paul White’s Uncomfortable Truths Blog titled “Replacing Reno’s Homeless Shelter With A More Efficient Model”. This is Part II of this series.
Coming up on June 4th, James Taylor, President of the Heartland Institute, will be speaking. This is hosted by the Republican Women of Reno. He will be presenting the case for fighting back against the Tech Cartel and how to do it. See the flyer insert below for details.
Opportunities to get involved this week:
Tuesday May 25. Washoe County Board of Commissioners Meeting at 10AM
Tuesday May 25. Washoe County Board of Trustees Meeting (BIG RALLY PLANNED!) 2PM
Wednesday May 26. Conservative Talk Lunch 11:30am
Friday June 4th. James Tayor is speaking.

Hello Fellow Patriots,
Good News! Our legislature is now restricted to contemplating only those bills that have been introduced. That being said, a great deal of potential damage could be done to Nevada by some of the proposed legislation. For example, AB286 is still out there. This bill will make instant criminals out of hobbyist that have made a firearm using kits or by their own design (guns without serial numbers). This is not about forensics as the science of ballistics has that covered. There has been no strong argument regarding why Nevada should pass this bill. Please write the Senate Judiciary Committee in opposition of this bill; it is infringement of the Second Amendment. See the Committee with their emails below. The hearing is Tuesday at 1pm. Also record your opinion on the website (one more time) at https://www.leg.state.nv.us/App/Opinions/81st2021/ ; be sure to scroll down to “Bill Version” 4/20/21 to voice your opinion on this version of the bill.
I would also encourage you to write the legislators about the other bills pending that will devastate Nevada. Resources for information besides the NELIS website are: Nevada Family Alliance, Nevada Families for Freedom, Conservative Talk Lunch, and Battle Born Patriots.
Reno is opening their “CARES” campus to address the homelessness explosion in our community on May 17th. At that time they will be doing “sweeps” along the Truckee River and telling the homeless people that this is no longer allowed. This is once again a useless attempt to solve a problem that is easily fixable. The City of Reno spent millions of dollars for this CARES Campus that I predict will be useless in six months. Additionally they are spending $400,000 per year for staffing on this campus. The City of Reno refuses to accept their failures from the past as well as the failures of other cities that continually throw money down the drain while not enforcing existing laws. The City of Reno would have you believe this is a new and novel idea while there are numerous examples across the country that clearly demonstrate that this plan does not work. Why? For insight into why this will not work you will find an excerpt of Paul White’s latest article (below) from his blog Inconvenient Truths.
Let’s talk about the communist indoctrination that the Washoe County School District wants for our kids. The Washoe County School Board of Trustees does not understand or refuses to acknowledge that Social Justice, Critical Race Theory, BLM, politicial correctness, equity, Systemic Racism, white privilege and BICOP (black, indigenous, people of color) are all founded in Marxist ideology. Teaching these to our children is down right anti-American. Nevada has the worst schools in the country academically and instead of addressing those critical problems, the school board would rather focus on indoctrinating our kids to become social justice warriors as opposed to productive members of our community. The Trustee meeting is now mysteriously open once again to in person public this Tuesday at 2pm ONLY (see information below). It is time we hold our elected representatives accountable for the lack of quality education. Send your public comment to: publiccomments@washoeschools.net , even better, attend in person.
Opportunities to get involved this week:
Monday May 10, AB286 write legislators and opine on the 4/20 version of the bill, possibly testify
Tuesday May 11, Washoe County Commissioner’s Meeting 10am
Tuesday May 11, Washoe County School District Board of Trustees. Meeting 2pm (arrive early!!) SHARP! Tuesday May 11 and May 25. Social Justice Curriculum Rally at 1:30 in from of the administration building on 425 Ninth Street (more details below with down-loadable flyer)
Wednesday May 12, Conservative Talk Lunch. 10:30 for food, 11:30 for the meeting (details below)

Hello Fellow Patriots,
I like to start these newsletters off with good news. In that vein, Churchill County Commissioners have unanimously voted to fully open Churchill County! By fully open, I mean there are zero “mask mandates”. This makes 10 Nevada counties that are now free, we have 7 to go.
Our voices are being heard by our legislators although not to the degree we would like. There have been several seriously bad bills that have been significantly amended before being passed by the Assembly. An example is AB286, which would have negated a CCW permit and ban the manufacture of fire arms by hobbyists. It was amended to simply address those firearms lacking serial numbers, (aka. “ghost guns”). It passed the Assembly. If passed by the Senate, it would make instant felons of anyone in possession of a firearm without a serial number. Without a National Registry of Serial numbers, which would be the first step towards confiscation, serial numbers are meaningful only to the manufacturers. They are not a significant law enforcement tool. This is clear over-reach and irrational reaction to a problem that does not exist.
Another whopper of a bill, AB376, is mis-titled, “Keep Nevada Working Act”. It would more appropriately be named, “Welcome Illegals Into Nevada For Use As Cheap Labor As Our Welfare Costs Rise Exponentially Act”. The focus of this bill was to make Nevada a Sanctuary State for illegals. There are now three amendments; no vote was taken in the Assembly, it is still an expensively and bad bill for Nevada and was referred to the Committee of Ways and Means; stay tuned for updates. We are going to need to pressure our Senators to ensure these bills do not become law.
We are continuing to fight for the children of Washoe County by holding the Washoe County School District Board of Trustees accountable for the lack of education in our schools. Nevada ranks last in the nation for education and yet our School Board wants to integrate a new curriculum entirely focused on “social justice” instead of the 3 Rs. This curriculum is not education, it is indoctrination. I encourage you to click here and view the curriculum. I recommend, to narrow your focus and where to look within the curriculum, click here for a pdf of the Nevada Families for Freedom article and then give your comments in the public survey (scroll to the bottom of the curriculum link for the survey). The survey is only open until Monday, 26 April 2021. We need to let them know, NOT IN OUR SCHOOLS. After you take the survey, consider emailing the WCSD Trustees and express your opposition to this curriculum. Keep in mind the whole, “social justice push” is part of Marxists/Socialist doctrine to subvert our American way of life.
You may want to join the lawsuit against Washoe County School District. Instead of focusing on the 3 Rs and giving our students the education they need to succeed, the school board continues to spend time and money on anti-racism indoctrination. They have now locked the public out of the meetings as well. Are you a current/former WCSD employee, parent, or student with firsthand WCSD experiences regarding student learning, abusive behavior, or denial of rights? Are you willing to stand up publicly, tell the truth, and give our children and community a fighting chance at a better future? Contact Joey Gilbert at “The People’s Champ” foundation or call Joey Gilbert’s office at (775) 210-1501 and ask for Andrea. Mr. Gilbert is donating his services. https://www.joeygilbert.com/openschools#3

How Do We Fix Our WCSD Schools?
“Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passion, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.” (John Adams – 2nd President of the United States)
How Do We Fix Our WCSD Schools? Part VI of a 6-Part Series
Overview:
For over a decade, the Washoe County School District (and all Nevada public schools) have ranked last in the nation or almost-last in the nation in quality of education. WCSD superintendents and school boards have primarily blamed our failing schools on a lack of funding. That is provably false because 10 states fund their public schools equal-to or LOWER-than Nevada, and all 10 of those states outperform our schools.
Part VI: BETTER LEADERSHIP
“Where there is no vision, the people perish…” (Proverbs 29)
There is NO hope for the future of Washoe County’s 104 public schools and 62,000 students until WCSD leadership changes from top to bottom, beginning with Superintendent Kristin McNeill and Board President Angela Taylor. There currently exists NO “vision” in this duo’s leadership regarding how to proceed in creating schools that provide accountable academic teaching, a safe, secure and moral school environment, and don’t mismanage and waste almost $1 Billion per year in annual funding.
SUPERINTENDENT KRISTIN MCNEILL
Superintendent McNeill was selected by the School Board as WCSD’s new superintendent approximately one year ago. McNeill’s appointment directly contradicted the recommendation of the professional search group hired by the Board, who didn’t even rate McNeill among the top 6 superintendent candidates in a very weak field of applicants.
Why did the Board’s professional search group NOT recommend Kristin McNeill to be the new superintendent?

Paul D. White was a career public educator – as a teacher, principal, and superintendent, in 7 different school districts. A 2-time Educator of the Year, and national speaker/author on school reform, White’s focus is transforming low-performing, out-of-control schools into drug-free, non-violent, racially harmonious, and high-achieving campuses.
