to the CNN Politics Nightcap and good Tuesday evening from Washington. What happened in Las Vegas definitely hasn't stayed in Las Vegas: An intra-party civil war has broken out, with Bernie Sanders supporters furious over how Nevada's Democratic convention played out, and Hillary Clinton's allies saying the blame lies with Sanders. It all comes on the same day Kentucky and Oregon hold their Democratic primaries. Your bartender is Eric Bradner (http://www.cnn.com/profiles/eric-bradner?cid=nl_pol_071915_profile?sr=nl_pol_072215_bradner) . The tip jar: [email protected] (mailto:[email protected]) . ** Democratic disarray: Could a Sanders revolt upend the DNC? ------------------------------------------------------------ Suddenly, Democrats are fretting that the chaos they'd expected to see at the Republican convention in Cleveland could land on their doorstep in Philadelphia instead. Driving their concern: Bernie Sanders supporters' antics -- and anger -- at Nevada's Democratic convention over the weekend. "We saw what happened at the Trump rallies, which broke into violence, people punching one another. I don't want to see that happen at the Democratic Party," Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin of Illinois told CNN's Manu Raju (http://www.cnn.com/2016/05/17/politics/democrat-bernie-sanders-revolt/index.html) in an interview in the Capitol. "I call on Bernie to say to his supporters: Be fervent, be committed, but be sensible. Don't engage in any violence." Hillary Clinton's efforts to unite the party could be imperiled if Sanders isn't willing to ultimately help shepherd his supporters into her camp, some of his Senate colleagues say. He's increasingly under pressure to ease the tensions. "He should get things under control," California Sen. Barbara Boxer said of Sanders, saying it was worse than the vitriol during the Bush-Gore 2000 recount. "We're in a race that is very critical. We have to be united. He knows that. I have, in fact, called him a couple times, left a couple messages." ** Nevada chaos: Sanders digs in as Reid gets angry ------------------------------------------------------------ From CNN's Tom LoBianco (http://www.cnn.com/2016/05/17/politics/bernie-sanders-nevada-democrats/index.html) : A defiant Bernie Sanders on Tuesday hit back against state Democratic leaders in Nevada. He accused them of boxing out his backers and refused to apologize for the chaos -- even after CNN obtained audio recordings of an aide instructing Sanders' supporters to "take over" the Nevada convention. And Harry Reid is furious that Sanders won't apologize. The Nevada Democrat told Manu Raju: "Bernie should say something -- not have some silly statement. Bernie is better than that." Buzzing Bernie Sanders literally walked away (http://www.thedailybeast.com/cheats/2016/05/17/sanders-dodges-question-about-supporters-threats-at-nv-convention.html) from a reporter's question about the threats his supporters have aimed at Nevada's Democratic chairwoman, Roberta Lange. Here's one of the text messages Lange received (http://www.cnn.com/2016/05/17/politics/democrat-bernie-sanders-revolt/index.html) : "We know where you live ... where your kids go to school/grandkids. We have everything on you." Straight Up ** "It's like eating a watermelon and saying, 'I love African-Americans.'" ------------------------------------------------------------ ** -- Jeb Bush, to the Dutch outlet NRC Handelsblad (http://www.cnn.com/2016/05/17/politics/jeb-bush-donald-trump-taco-bowl/index.html) , on Donald Trump's infamous Cinco de Mayo taco bowl tweet (http://www.cnn.com/2016/05/05/politics/donald-trump-taco-bowl-cinco-de-mayo/) . ------------------------------------------------------------ Last Call ** Tonight's Democratic primaries: Kentucky and Oregon ------------------------------------------------------------ Bernie Sanders is favored to win Oregon -- but Kentucky could be closer. Among the reasons: Bill Clinton was the last Democrat to carry the state. And Democratic former Gov. Steve Beshear's accomplishments, including implementing Obamacare, are under threat from new GOP Gov. Matt Bevin. It's a state where Democratic gains have been hard-won. Hillary Clinton's positioning as President Barack Obama's natural heir could help in a state where Sanders' liberal positions feel especially distant. Also important: She held 11 events there over three visits. What Clinton needs: Big African-American turnout in Jefferson and Fayette counties, the homes of Louisville and Lexington. Those were the only two counties she lost against Obama in 2008. The polls close at 6 p.m. and 7 p.m. ET in Kentucky and 11 p.m. ET in Oregon. ** No, Trump is not expanding the GOP electorate ------------------------------------------------------------ Donald Trump's ability to expand the GOP electorate by reaching disaffected voters who can put new states into play has been a core claim since the outset of his campaign. But Politico's Shane Goldmacher found a lot of evidence it's not true (http://www.politico.com/magazine/story/2016/05/donald-trump-2016-polling-turnout-early-voting-data-213897) -- a reality that will set off alarm bells for endangered House and Senate Republicans, too. The must-read sentence: "While Trump’s insurgent candidacy has spurred record-setting Republican primary turnout in state after state, the early statistics show that the vast majority of those voters aren’t actually new to voting or to the Republican Party, but rather they are reliable past voters in general elections. They are only casting ballots in a Republican primary for the first time." ** Rubio's Twitter tirade: Why wasn't he this blunt as a candidate? ------------------------------------------------------------ Marco Rubio was mad late Monday night about this (https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/05/16/here-are-five-people-who-are-not-going-to-be-donald-trumps-vice-president/) Washington Post report and this (https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2015/10/25/28cfaff0-6d59-11e5-9bfe-e59f5e244f92_story.html) one, both citing unnamed sources in asserting he dislikes the Senate. So he told Twitter about it in a tweetstorm, CNN's David Wright and Emily Smith write (http://www.cnn.com/2016/05/17/politics/marco-rubio-twitter-future-plans-cardio/index.html) , that included this take (https://twitter.com/marcorubio/status/732395159606964224?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) : "Unnamed sources 'close to' often just people who want to sound like they are in the know. And reporters desperate for content just accept it." The New York Times' Alexander Burns gets at the problem with Rubio's tirade, tweeting (https://twitter.com/alexburnsNYT/status/732553585851043840) : "Here's a little-known trick for heading off stories sourced to aides and advisers: talking candidly to the press." ** Clinton launches a new effort to hit Trump over his tax returns ------------------------------------------------------------ Hillary Clinton's campaign is launching a petition drive that demands Donald Trump release his tax returns -- her latest effort to rally Democrats around the country against their common enemy, per MSNBC's Benjy Sarlin (http://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/clinton-campaign-keeps-pressure-trump-over-taxes) . The petition, sent Tuesday evening by rapid response director Christina Reynolds, asks bluntly: "What is he so afraid of us finding?" Clinton is increasingly focused on this issue. She wasn't planning to raise it yet, but began hammering Trump last week when an audience member in New Jersey shouted a question at Clinton about Trump's refusal to release his tax returns. The petition campaign shows her campaign is now fully seizing on the issue. It's not a tax return, but: Trump made at least $557 million last year (https://twitter.com/ZekeJMiller/status/732676008105676800) , per his campaign. He filed his latest personal financial disclosure on Monday. Closing Time Melania Trump to Du Jour, (http://dujour.com/news/melania-trump-interview/) on the anti-Semitic hate (http://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/apr/28/julia-ioffe-journalist-melania-trump-antisemitic-abuse) that Julia Ioffe faced after her GQ profile of Donald Trump's wife: Some "maybe went too far. She provoked them." ... GOP casino mogul and mega-donor Sheldon Adelson is already imploring (http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/wireStory/adelson-implores-republican-jewish-leaders-support-trump-39177486) Jewish Republicans to help Trump.
