The Nevada Democratic Party reportedly hired a man who harassed and called GOP gubernatorial nominee Sheriff Joseph Lombardo a "garbage human being," even after Democrat Gov. Steve Sisolak condemned the individual's actions.
The activist, Sean Navarro, is seen in a March video accosting Trump-backed candidate Lombardo, calling him "a real piece of s---," a "Nazi" and a "garbage human being." Navarro, who says he's a proud member of the Las Vegas Democratic Socialists, posted the video on his social media after the incident.
Navarro stood behind his actions in an interview with KSNV News 3 saying, "I 120% do not regret what I said. I said it with my chest. I would say it again. I regret not saying more."
Navarro announced his new position as "Coalition and Community Engagement Coordinator" for the Nevada Democratic Party on Twitter last week. Nevada Independent CEO Jon Ralston reported the hire, noting that it was timed for the 100 final days of the midterm election cycle.
