Call me crazy, but I don't think the question of whether or not Bovino belongs in his job depends on whether or not he deletes the tweet he made calling protesters "cannon fodder." Making the tweet (along with many other things he's done) should disqualify him from any law enforcement job ever.
Rep. Lieu: “Greg Bovino last night made a post that essentially called protesters, ‘cannon fodder.’ He needs to delete that post, or he needs to resign…If Greg Bovino and the administration doesn't turn down the rhetoric, it's going to cause more people to get killed.”

France will open its first consulate in Greenland next month, the country's Foreign Affairs Minister Jean-Noël Barrot has said.
The move is a “political signal” amid threats from Donald Trump to seize the Denmark-administered territory, he added.

How do you charge someone with using a vehicle to assault an agent, when the vehicle collided with an UNOCCUPIED agent vehicle?

Average global temperatures are now around 1.4C higher than during the pre-industrial era, new data shows.
If the trend continues, the 1.5C limit set out in the Paris Agreement will be breached before the end of this decade.

Our lovely cat, adopted from a rescue a year ago, is being operated on this morning to remove an old airgun pellet from his skull. We had no idea it was there until it caused an infection last week. Very grateful for any fingers you could cross for him.
