My dog can’t go to the dog park cause he’s <1 week overdue for his leptospirosis booster, and I wish we could apply the same degree of basic concern and common sense to things like kindergarteners and the rest of society. (I didn’t even realize it was due and I don’t want a dog with leptospirosis!)

The state Bureau of Criminal Apprehension says they've been informed by the FBI that US DOJ has said FBI will solely lead the investigation into Renee Nicole Good's killing by a federal officer. State investigators no longer have access to "case materials, scene evidence/investigative interviews"

If you haven't watched this documentary, you need to. @jennbudd.bsky.social did an amazing thing that blew the doors open on Border Patrol cover-up teams. The same type of cover-up that we saw in Minneapolis.

Tampering with the crime scene, removing evidence, it's all in the doc.

"An analysis of footage from three camera angles shows that the motorist was driving away from—not toward—a federal officer when he opened fire."

Great video analysis of Minneapolis shooting from NYT. These frames show drawing of gun and exact moment of first shot.

I need people to wrap their minds around the fact that here in Minneapolis, ICE broke the window of a vehicle yesterday, pepper sprayed the occupants, and arrested them, and shot another observer in the face today, and OBSERVERS ARE STILL GOING OUT TO PROTECT THEIR NEIGHBORS AT MASSIVE PERSONAL RISK
I’m eating lunch, I’m having a panic attack, I’m charging my phone, and then I’m going back out to try and keep my neighborhood safe.
