As Nevada’s Republican Party pushes to unify, a rogue faction has emerged with the goal of betraying the GOP base to elect Democrats. “Republicans for Ford” is a coalition of 13 Republicans refusing to back the GOP nominee, Sigal Chattah, in the state’s Attorney General race by throwing their support behind the Democrat incumbent Aaron Ford instead.
Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford defended arbitrary pandemic church capacity limits, while firebrand attorney Sigal Chattah represented the churches in a lawsuit, winning a ruling that overturned the Governor’s executive order. Other Ford pandemic-related crackdowns included a focus on fake vaccine cards, even at a time when they weren’t required to access anything except free doughnuts at Dunkin.
Sigal Chattah, in a statement, responded to the formation group by saying
“I am not interested in tax-hiking, teacher union lobbyists supporting me. These Republicans for Ford are simply Democrats who are using the Republican brand for whatever power they perceive they have and look to line their own pockets and elect Democrats.”
The former State Senate Majority Lead Michael Roberson was one of those who turnedcoats. His name has become synonymous with taxation because he passed the highest tax increases in state history during 2015’s tenure. In response, Nevada’s Republican voters ousted their so-called representatives, marking the end of GOP majorities and strongholds in the state… indefinitely.
Others aboard the clown boat include lobbyists (who I am branding), and a long list. #LobbyistsForFord. Amy Tarkanian appears to be the unofficial leader in the betrayal brigade. She was once a Republican Party Chair before Michael McDonald was elected. Since then, he has been the seat in place since 2012 and continues to hold it in perpetuity. Tarkanian is mad at McDonald’s and has been ranting on Twitter about the state party ever since.
LOL, I raised the greatest amount of money in the shortest period. Mark Amodei and Dean Heller were also won by me. You’re a manipulative loser. https://t.co/sAc1Jy6Rj2

For rank and file Republicans pretending any of this is new or even shocking is… rich. This party-line crossing didn’t start with the AG race. It didn’t even start with this election cycle. Michele Fiore (the NV GOP National Committeewoman) is the GOP State Treasurer nominee. The ferrel club had previously refused support for Michele Fiore. This subversive behavior is callback to a mutiny in 2010, when “Republicans for Ried” assisted in getting Democrat Senator Harry Ried re-elected. Ried, the US Senate Majority Leader at that time, was instrumental in securing the passage of important Democratic bills such as the Affordable Care Act.
Tarkanian’s disloyalties are now being celebrated in an LGBTQ Nation article authored by Sarah Ashton Cirillo. Transgender Cirillo infiltrated Republican’s base last cycle to become a conspicuous Democrat Plant.
Fun fact: Cirillo wrote this article in a combat zone of Ukraine.
Tarkanian, who is an avowed Christian, heterosexual and wife, has been invited by Log Cabin Republican to give a speech at the events.
OMG, I’m so excited! The details are not available, but I have some ideas. @LCRFortWorthThey asked me if I would be interested in speaking at their fundraising event. This makes me so excited.

Log Cabin Republican Fundraisers: Why should you turn your back at Republican nominees? It could be that a member of the LGBTQ community has been unable to attend? The GOP was also betrayed wrote a story about Amy’s most recent treachery?
Even within inner-party squabbles ranging mainly between disenfranchised grassroots supporters to the reemergence of tax-hikers fighting for the Democrat Status quoThe Republican base doesn’t have any confusion about who they want to be Attourney General.. Chattah easily won her primary race against Tisha Black, who was last minute challenger.
Black’s campaign finances raised eyebrows, initially reported by political writer and consultant Chuck Muth. Black received numerous maxed out donations from donors who had donated previously to Ford and other Democrats. This gave the impression that Black wasn’t running to unseat Ford but rather to sandbag Chattah.
Incumbant AG Ford is now refusing to debate Chattah, stating he won’t even be in the same room with her.
“I am not standing in the room with her, I will not endeavor to have a conversation with her and I will certainly not be debating her.”
This is a strange thing to say when your job is to prosecute criminals– a requisite of the job is to be in the same room with people you otherwise wouldn’t want to be near. Ford’s refusals come after he called his Israeli-born opponent a racist, in response to Chattah’s private messages leaking saying Ford “should be hanging from a (f***ing) crane. He’s like the leader of (H)amas — making tons of money while the People in Gaza are starving.” It was reported that Chattah was envoking an Israeli curse and is known to use this phrase non-literally in her vernacular. To nobody’s surprise, the leak came from Sarah Ashton Cirillo. This message was among many that were exchanged in the preceding election cycle when Cirillo appeared as a friend, political ally, and to Republican women.
A pattern emerges: Fake Republicans work against the party, feeding their insatiable need for attention, riding Democrat coattails into power brokering … and somehow landing interviews & invitations to reward their numbingly commonplace backstabbing.
Chattah is always available. on-brandAnd pushing back against your enemies:
“The Tarkanians have plowed through all four congressional districts in Nevada, and lost every time. They aren’t exactly a political success story. I have never denied any election, but Roberson can’t deny that he is a shill for the teacher’s unions. When an AG candidate starts talking about indictments and grand juries, a lot of people will support the status quo that protects them.”
