Major court ruling Thursday on the ongoing brouhaha over who is the rightfully-elected new chairman of the Clark County Republican Central Committee.
I’m not going to rehash it all here. You can access my previous reports on my MuthsTruths.com blog. But the most relevant is at

The former regime and “acting” officers under the mismanagement of Head Bozo/Chairman David Sajdak were celebrating what they believed was a major victory in court just last week when a retiring judge sided with them based on inaccurate information she had been provided.
They spiked the ball and did the Snoopy Dance in the end zone last Thursday. “Acting” (in every sense of the word) Chairman Steven Silberkraus gloated in an email after the ruling…
“At a hearing this morning Clark County Judge Elizabeth Gonzalez declared that the rogue group’s sham meeting and election were not proper and therefore Judge Gonzalez issued a court order invalidating both. … With this issue now resolved finally and conclusively, it is time to proceed with the regular business of the CCRP including our membership meeting and our elections.”
A couple of phrases come to mind…
—It ain’t over ‘til it’s over
—Don’t count your chickens before they’re hatched
—He who laughs last, laughs best
Because of the false information the previous judge relied on, Jesse Law — who was duly elected and recognized by the Nevada Republican Party after the recessed election that took place on July 28 — asked for reconsideration of last week’s decision by a new judge. The hearing was last Thursday morning.
TRO (temporary restraint ordered) rescinded.
Case dismissed.
Congratulations (or condolences) to CHAIRMAN Law.
The Silberkraus clowns and the losing candidates for chair — including State Sen. Carrie Buck — can still try to keep this mess going. But I’m pretty sure you can stick a fork in them now. They’re done.
