Nevada Governor Joe Lombardo sparked controversy after leaked audio from a private dinner revealed him using explicit language towards critics on social media. The recordings also captured Lombardo alleging that protestors in Carson City were paid by the Democratic Party and criticizing their motives.
The leaked recordings, which were confirmed to be authentic by a source, were from the Lincoln Day Dinner in Carson City, where Lombardo was the keynote speaker. In response to the leaked audio, a spokesperson for the Governor declined to comment.
Lombardo’s comments during the dinner stirred controversy, as he dismissed social media critics and accused protestors of being motivated by financial incentives rather than genuine grievances. Thousands of people attended the ‘Hands Off’ rally in Carson City over the weekend, protesting against the Trump administration.
The leaked audio has generated strong reactions online, with many expressing outrage over Lombardo’s remarks. For further inquiries, contact reporter Ben Margiott at bjmargiott@sbgtv.com or follow @BenMargiott on X and Ben Margiott KRNV on Facebook.
