Laxalt hosts event with candidate calling to dissolve the FBI and repeal the Civil Rights Act

Sleazy, corrupt politician Adam Laxalt is hosting an event today with January 6 truther Carolina Serrano, whom Laxalt whole-heartedly endorsed earlier this year. Serrano has argued that FBI agents were behind the January 6 insurrection, that the agency should be dissolved as a result, and the 1964 Civil Rights Act should be repealed. 

As Trump’s campaign co-chair, Laxalt led efforts to contest the 2020 election results in Nevada and was “the face of” Trump’s Big Lie in the state. He has faced major criticism from law enforcement leadership for turning his back on police and fundraising off the Big Lie, even after it fueled the January 6 insurrection (which Laxalt said was exaggerated, according to the AP).

Statement from Nevada Democratic Victory Spokesperson Olivia Davis:

“Sleazy Adam Laxalt is once again standing against federal law enforcement and campaigning with a far-right extremist who wants to dissolve the FBI. Even after law enforcement leaders called Laxalt out for promoting the Big Lie and fueling the insurrection, he continues to stand against the men and women keeping us safe.”
