Hey y'all. A plea to help our Northern Nevada friends that are already struggling and devastated by the Hawk Fire.

The foodbank of Northern Nevada is helping those impacted by the fire feed themselves. They are accepting donations directly through the link in the tweet below this.

If you are near Reno, they are also accepting non-perishable food donations at Aha Connects at 199 E. Moana Ln. Reno 89502.  The entrance is in the back of the building and they are open from 9 am – 5 pm. #HawkFire #Reno #Nevada

[Senator Thom Tillis @SenThomTillis]

A sycophant is more than just a "yes-man."

It refers to someone who acts excessively servile toward someone important in order to gain an advantage. They aren't just being nice, they are using excessive flattery, often insincerely, to get what they want, whether that's a promotion, social status or favor.

Some characteristics: The motive is self-interest. They aren't praising you because they like you; they're doing it because you have something they want. The behavior is over the top fawning, or constant agreement (including when you're wrong).

Common Synonyms: toady, flunky, bootlicker.

Some parallels for movie buffs:

Grima Wormtongue (the Stephen Miller of Lord of the Rings) is an advisor to King Theoden. He uses whispers and false flattery to control the King’s decisions, all while secretly serving Saruman. He is a classic example of a sycophant who uses his position to poison a leader's standing for his own benefit.

Dolores Umbridge (the Kristi Noem of Harry Potter) is an example of a bureaucratic sycophant. She is terrifyingly sweet while she is around those she considers her superiors and she sucks up to authority to gain the power she needs to bully those "beneath" her.

Whether it’s Democrats putting their pronouns in email signatures or Republicans shooting and killing unarmed drivers, both sides have taken actions that the other side finds threatening.

From a Nov. report from Cato:

73% of people detained by ICE had NO criminal convictions 50% of people detained by ICE didn't have ANY criminal charges pending. Only 5% of detainees had a violent criminal conviction. ONLY 5%!!!

ICE is killing, kidnapping, causing widespread panic and fear for people that don't have any threat to our communities. Wasting billions that could be helping people. ABOLISH ICE.

Nevadans need more affordable housing but also need SAFE housing. Bad landlords do every thing they can to maximize profit and minimize repairs at the renter's expense.

Our real estate investor Governor Joe Lombardo has made it clear: he prioritizes real-estate investments/donors over YOU. He's vetoed key housing bills, including a Tenants Bill of Rights, that would give tenants much needed protections against bad landlords. In AD 29, I will fight for your housing and not someone's portfolio.

[Jess Coleman @jesskcoleman]

Universal health care? Too expensive.

Child care? Unrealistic.

Free buses? Defunding public transit.

Eliminating student debt? Dumb kids don’t know the value of a dollar.

Rent freeze? Communism.

Unconstitutional wars? Funded instantly.

The United States needs to stay out of Venezuela. Let the Venezuelan people determine their future. We don't want other countries to choose our leaders--so we have to stop trying to choose theirs.

The same people that want specifically people of color to provide proof of citizenship and passports think they shouldn't have to pay taxes. Make it make sense.

[Gramps @GrandpaHarris65]

ICE is now arguing in court that every citizen must provide evidence of citizenship, eg. Passport.

[David J. Bier @David_J_Bier]

New ICE data show that over 71% of ICE arrests are people without criminal convictions of ANY kind, let alone a public safety threat.

@WhiteHouse this video is evil and disgusting. Do not ever involve me or my music to benefit your inhumane agenda.

NEW: ACA subsidies aren't the only tax credits expiring this year. The work opportunity tax credit, which incentivizes hiring SNAP recipients, long-term unemployed & others, sunsets Dec 31.

Today @RepHorsford is introducing an updated bill to extend it:

@BoyceGames Nevada is already one of the most tax friendly places in the US for business. How much more do they need?

[Alex Pereszlenyi For Nevada @AlexPereszlenyi]

Nevada should not be paying for huge corporate handouts when so many Nevadans are struggling to just get by. Nevada cannot continue to leave hard working people behind while propping up huge corporations instead. Say no to the Studio Film Tax Credit Nevada. #NevadaSpecialSession
