An unnamed individual is donating a fleet of Tesla Cybertrucks to the Las Vegas Metro Police Department. It's the largest law enforcement fleet in the country and will be "badass" according to Sheriff Kevin McMahill.

The rumors going around about ICE immigration raids and "checkpoints" in and around the Las Vegas Valley are false. In fact, there are no verified reports about large-scale federal immigration enforcement efforts anywhere in Southern Nevada.

Las Vegas Metro police will not engage in mass deportation roundups, according to LVMPD Sheriff Kevin McMahill. "Officers will not stop and question, detain, arrest, or place an immigration hold on any individuals on the grounds they are an undocumented immigrant."

Don't freak out but it's only rained 0.35 inches in the last 10 months. That's about 12% of the normal amount. Las Vegas hasn't had measurable rain in over 6 months, the second-longest dry streak in recorded history. 💀

The price of the Las Vegas Athletics stadium has skyrocketed to $1.75 billion — a quarter billion dollars more than originally estimated — due to inflation and "the addition of 70,000 square feet of ballpark features," per the Las Vegas Review-Journal.

The Athletics will have to prove they have the financing available to build a $1.5 billion stadium on the Strip, in a meeting with the Las Vegas Stadium Authority Board set for Thursday. Many critics doubt that John Fisher, the team's owner, can secure the necessary funds.

The Sands Hotel used to hold an annual "Turkey Trot" event where the showgirls would be allowed to determine the fates of the resort's wild turkeys. The ladies would chase the birds across the casino floor while gamblers paused mid-roll of their dice to cheer them on.
