It all started with a fire drill. This past December, approximately 13 firefighter crews arrived at a Las Vegas tunnel dug by Boring Company, Elon Musk’s $5.6 billion underground transportation startup. After two hours practicing the rescue of a 200-pound mannequin dummy, two of the firefighters ended up in the hospital with chemical burns from the “muck” liquid that pools in the base of the tunnels—a mixture of chemicals, groundwater, and earth. Nevada’s workplace safety regulator launched an investigation and issued three “willful” citations against Boring Co.—the most aggressive violations the state OSHA can levy.

Elon Musk has been pushing hard for companies to exit Delaware and reincorporate elsewhere, following the lead of his companies Tesla and SpaceX. Coinbase became the latest to take the leap, announcing this week that it was moving its state of incorporation to Texas from Delaware. Despite Musk’s proclamation that “Delaware continues to bleed companies,” those departing the state make up a distinct minority.

On May 28, hours after Nevada’s workplace safety agency served notice of more than $400,000 in fines to Elon Musk’s $5.6 billion tunneling startup the Boring Company, the phone rang at Nevada governor Joe Lombardo’s office.

This year, the immigrant community in Las Vegas has been rocked by the intensification of ICE detentions (just look at the abrupt closure of Broadacres this summer, for example). But Professor Michael Kagan, who runs the UNLV Immigration Clinic, explains to co-host Dayvid Figler why things are likely to get much, much worse next year — and what we can do in the face of it all.

Attorney Adam Crayk expects immigration enforcement in Utah to get much more aggressive. The recent public arrest at the airport that went viral is just one early indicator.

A federal judge in Nevada could soon decide whether two men — Victor Jacobo-Ramirez and Edgar Guevara-Alcantar, both denied bail under new immigration detention rules — could be the first of hundreds of detainees in the state to win access to long-denied bond hearings. Their emergency legal petition, filed last week in U.S. District Court in Las Vegas, has launched a class action supported by the ACLU of Nevada and the UNLV Immigration Clinic.

The ACLU of Nevada is taking the federal government to court over a new immigration detention policy they say is unlawful and strips immigrants of constitutional rights. The American Civil Liberties Union of Nevada, along with the ACLU Immigrants’ Rights Project and the UNLV Immigration Clinic, filed a class action lawsuit challenging a nationwide policy that bars immigrants who entered the U.S. without inspection from accessing a bond hearing, no matter how long they have lived in the country.

Two men being held by immigration authorities were misclassified by the Department of Homeland Security in a way that doesn’t allow them a chance to bail out as their cases proceed, a break in a decades-long established practice, a federal lawsuit filed in Las Vegas alleges. The American Civil Liberties Union of Nevada, the ACLU’s Immigrants’ Rights Project and UNLV’s Immigration Clinic, which are representing the plaintiffs, filed the complaint Thursday.

Since the start of President Donald Trump’s second term, challengers have filed numerous lawsuits to oppose actions taken by his administration, echoing the wave of suits filed during Trump’s first term against policies such as the travel ban. But there’s a big difference between 2017 and 2025: This time around, when it comes to opposing the Trump administration in court, Big Law is largely absent.

Zohran Mamdani's historic win as New York's first Muslim mayor has ignited a fierce backlash from MAGA supporters online, who are accusing him of a "left-wing takeover." Despite facing xenophobic and anti-Muslim attacks, Mamdani, a democratic socialist, is set to take office in January, promising to improve the city for ordinary people.

The American Civil Liberties Union of Nevada and the UNLV Immigration Clinic have filed a federal class action lawsuit challenging the new mandatory detention policy implemented under the Trump administration.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement has been consistently highlighting arrests on its social media accounts under President Donald Trump’s second administration, sometimes with an accompanying list of crimes and a photo of a person who committed them.
