ProPublica investigates how the Bozo Fascist Regime is building its storm trooper force - the American equivalent of Hitler's S.A. - right out in the open, offering $50K bonuses, which makes it easier to attract shiftless weakling bullies. Protest, vote, resist! www.propublica.org/article/trum...

How Trump is Building a Violent, Shadowy Federal Police Force

Trump’s DHS appointees have dismantled civil rights guardrails, protected agents’ anonymity and encouraged them to wear masks, threatened groups that stood in their way, and overwhelmed legal challeng...

I’m not sure Mizzou could have called a worse set of plays at the end of that drive. Just absolute trash play calling.

Thomas is a better player than Nazar but he hasn’t really found the all around game so far and he’s not nearly the defensive center he’s portrayed to be by STL media

Robert Thomas just gliding on that play. I’ve seen too much of that so far this season. #STLBlues

Happy for @zzyzx.bsky.social at least it will go 7!

Oh shit! It’s my fault now? Long series. Would help if the starters would do the good things again.

Even if this is true (which is unlikely), it is still not a basis to block the referendum. MO AG’s are a clown show. Performative litigation.

BREAKING from PP

We found immigration agents have held more than 170 *citizens*

The govt doesn't track citizens held. So we did. We tallied:

Nearly 20 kids, two w/ cancer

More than 20 citizens held for day or more, incommunicado

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.

The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

A terrific AFP fact check uses reverse image searches to expose how a White House video took scenes from Florida, Texas, South Carolina and Nebraska and lied that they showed "Chicago is in chaos."

Is it the relevant question? I still believe. Then again I don’t have your trauma.

I’m sorry

Joel Hofer was not good tonight. Rarely will I put a loss on a goalie solely but it’s hard not to on this night. #STLBlues

Sorry you got the stinker. Sometimes you win. Sometimes you lose. Sometimes it rains.

What a weird start by Hofer. #STLBlues

NChlebowski @nchlebowski.bsky.social · 4d

They actually got swept in all 3. Didn’t win a Stanley Cup finals game till 2019. Though Scotty Bowman was their coach and they fired him. He only turned out to be the winningest coach in NHL history. And has the most Cups all time.

NChlebowski @nchlebowski.bsky.social · 4d

Yes they did but that’s a quirk. The NHL expanded and all the new teams were put in the same conference. All the original teams were in the other conference. It guaranteed that and expansion franchise would make the Cup finals.

Oops my fault. Bad math. I’m a lawyer. They told me there would be no math.

NChlebowski @nchlebowski.bsky.social · 4d

Ahhh you are including the Pilots.

NChlebowski @nchlebowski.bsky.social · 4d

I mean shit it’s ONLY been 42 years for you. Would beat my Blues to a title by 10 years.

NChlebowski @nchlebowski.bsky.social · 4d

I’m sure you’ve chalked this up as a loss. That’s ok! Even if it happens (and that is not a done deal) you still lead the series! Let me tell you about my Blues. In the opening series they went on the road and won games 1 & 2. They then went home and lost games 3 & 4. They won in 6.

NChlebowski @nchlebowski.bsky.social · 4d

I do understand. Like I’ve said before, I was a reader of Lookout Landing for many years. But…I’m also a Blues fan! It took us 52 years before we won a Stanley Cup! And Phish was in town the night we won! 6/12/2019

Look at this guy! A true baseball fan is a pessimist. It’s a game of failure. Lots of innings to go. And lots of this series.

Middle-middle is a problem against any team. It’s especially a problem against good teams. Good news is that it’s early! Bieber hasn’t been great either.
