Nice to see we're back at the "They can perform, but they can never sit down at a table" stage again.

That is some piss yellow journalism...

I bet some of them regretted it as that guy botched some executions "inadvertently"

Jail nurses were likely directly responsible for the lack of care and won't face any consequences for their malpractice.

They're often putting inmates through detox without any medical supervision or support because they think people suffering is helping.

This is a long time, nationwide issue.

Some broscience guys are going hard with this with reportedly (grain of salt) some efficacy. But you have a month of cramps and shitting yourself constantly.

Some marketing guy in the dairy industry has been laughing for decades as his tiny version of the adulterated USDA food pyramid has been driving sales.

You can add one pretty easily. Just suction cups on a window.

Will be an issue for an increasing number of police cars.

Hennepin County has earned the reputation it currently has over decades.

The judge in the trial, Daniel Moreno was the one to propose a plea deal, Mike Freeman had no intention of offering one.

CeCe McDonald murder trial
"Black lady with a knife." When the first 911 call came in, that's all police had to go on, because that's all Gary Gilbert could see by the dim light outside the Schooner Tavern, where he worked sec....

The dead nazi also had the obligatory convictions for domestic violence and assault.

Cici McDonald fought back after her face was sliced open so badly it required eleven stitches to close.

Or prosecutors. 15 years ago Hennepin County DA Mike Freeman made it clear that trans people being pursued and attacked DO NOT have the right to defend themselves from a group of Nais with swastika tattoos on their chests - high on both meth and coke - heard screaming "faggots" and "n***er lovers"

Yeah. Plenty of things we could have been doing over the last few decades but we trusted that the existing web would still be there to recall data.

Also fun fact, the bearcats were excluded from Obama's 1033 limiting EO. Sigh.

"ICE would have just run her over, differentiating them from the Chinese tank commanders" is another.

The 1033 database only contains items held at the time of the report, if they got something earlier and "disposed" of it (whole other rabbithole with what that means), it's not included.

And my god google has become so useless.

In the 2014 1033 database, Hennepin County got a "Truck, Armored" valued at 65k, but the Minneapolis PD only had 163 5.56 rifles.
They apparently obtained an initial bearcat in 2004 but nobody has apparently created a database of equipment purchased by who.

I seem to remember Portland Police got one through 1033 around 2004ish?

But you're right, so many cities blew huge amounts of taxpayer money on these and it's a little surprising this one is still operational.
January 10, 2026 at 11:39 PM
Under the 1033 program, they would have just had to pick it up and maybe replace the tires (which aren't cheap, but not 2 teachers)
January 10, 2026 at 11:34 PM
Or they bought a new one with taxpayer money for well over sticker when they could have got something a few years old for free.

"Our police should have the monopoly on violence, damnit."

Do you have a label for accounts who use Grok to nonconsensually generate images of female users in bikinis or are you just nuking the images and leaving the accounts up?

bsky.app/profile/kate...
Fuck it- the colleague was me. I reported the posts (there we others not just me) and reported the account. For whatever reason @bsky.app @safety.bsky.app seems to have only removed the images and left the account up???

Ready for some answers @jay.bsky.team @safety.bsky.app
