Water & Power Pressure: Nevada’s data-center boom keeps colliding with real-world utilities—this week’s big story is a Lake Tahoe power crunch as NV Energy reportedly tells some California customers it won’t supply power after May 2027, with locals scrambling for alternatives. Local Governance: In West Las Vegas, school board talks over “possible reorganization” drew a packed public fight, with students and families pushing back on closures tied to enrollment and finances. Tech & Health Tech: A veteran-led “Psychedelic Fitness™” platform entered beta, aiming to track mood, sleep, recovery, and journaling between psychedelic-assisted therapy sessions. Public Safety & Defense: The Air Force is laying out new requirements for an MQ-9 Reaper replacement, signaling a shift toward more flexible, scalable aircraft. Health Policy: The Trump administration deferred $1.3B in Medicaid payments to California while expanding anti-fraud moves, including a six-month Medicare enrollment pause for hospices and home health.
