About Harry Reid's pick for SC Justice, Nevada Republican Gov. Brian Sandoval

Nevada Residents Fight Energy Monopoly's Attempts to Control Solar Power

In December 2015, the Public Utilities Commission of Nevada (PUCN), appointed by Nevada Republican Gov. Brian Sandoval, voted to slash net metering credits and raise fixed fees on solar customers by 40 percent, making it prohibitively expensive for most Nevadans to go solar, and also making it uneconomical for the over 17,000 people who had already switched to solar power. Many solar rooftop companies shut down, hundreds of solar workers lost their jobs and homeowners are left with higher energy bills than if they would never have gone solar.

Truthout


That's Harry Reid pick for Supreme Court Justice. Sandoval appointed the commission and has remained silent on the subject of screwing the people of Nevada. Nice guy.

I think Harry is pulling a fast one. And he figures he can play this guy like a fiddle and/or expose him for a fool?

You know, Harry is a former golden gloves boxer.

And it is not like Barack Obama to make an unforced fault, especially at this point.

(BTW, my friend. Just because we might have differences on some issues doesn't mean that I won't support you. )
