The Nevada Independent has announced they will be selling advertising on their website. Such a great idea. We thought why not? Contact PIcon at documents@piconpress.com if you’re interested in drinking deep.

Say What, Kristopher Dahir?
Picon can’t believe some of these election flyers and the candidates stretching of the truth. Candidates are spending a fortune on campaign flyers, and we’ve been told by most voters, they take the pile of flyers out of their mailbox and plunk them in the trash.
Sparks Councilmember Kristopher Dahir is no exception. How about this flyer focusing on “safety” which has been a big flyer focus in 2024. However, while Dahir is focused on the “Status of Public Safety in Sparks” and mentions four new fire trucks that have been “ordered” – a new fire station being built, and how the city is hiring five new firefighters. Great news for Sparks, but then why is the Sparks Fire Department, Sparks Firefighters IAFF Local 1265 – basically where is any firefighter endorsement for Dahir? Seem to be missing.
Who’s Knocking at My Door?
If it isn't the bumbling buffalo herd of Sparks City Councilmen preening and pawing at new lows of small-town campaign shenanigans. This sordid video exposition lays bare the cringeworthy politics we've come to expect from Mayor Lawson’s coterie of credibility-bereft male council members.
Hack; a rough cut, blow, or stroke
Monday, May 13, 2024, will be the first Community Homeless Advisory Board Meeting since September 11, 2023. When we were sent these photos from a Nevada Wins Pac Gala $500 per seat dinner, with the keynote speaker being none other than Congressman Mark Amodei we were struct with the idea of homeless and an expensive Republican dinner.
Councilmember Kristopher Dahir has been in a public social media battle with Commissioner Mike Clark about the Nevada Cares Campus and Community Homeless Advisory Board meetings. Dahir who expounds on how he understands the plight of the homeless might think about a ‘$500 per plate dinner’ vs ‘champion of the homeless’ optics.
