Ok, so then will they be taking away traffic cop alerts on Apple Maps too? Or is it just the secret police who are protected?

But Apple's justification went further.
"Information provided to Apple by law enforcement shows that your app violates
Guideline 1.1.1 because its purpose is to provide location information about law enforcement officers that can be used to harm such officers individually or as a group," the company wrote in its removal notice.

Add it to the tally.

Seems like we’re getting up to 20+ grand jury no true bills just from what I’ve seen. Absolutely remarkable.

Q: Do you agree that the mayor of Chicago and governor of Illinois should be in prison?

MIKE JOHNSON: Should they be in prison? I'm not the attorney general. I'm not following the day to day on that

Someone nearby has a 15 foot tall Nosferatu out for Halloween, and my toddler demands we go out of our way to visit him any time we’re remotely nearby.

So now multiple times a day I’m like, “ugh, off to see Nosferatu again.”

Listen, Ross Vought and Emil Bove really do look old AF, but it’s not because they’re evil.

Evil does not age you. It’s just genetics and the sun and drugs/alcohol/smoking and stressors.

Apropos of nothing, Sec. Kristi Noem is currently praying over Burgerville with Portland ICE officials.

A screenshot of a video of Noem praying at a conference table with other people wearing suits. Fast food bags and water bottles sit on the table.

“My biggest fear is going to the hospital."

Pregnant immigrants are terrified ICE will show up outside the doctors' office or at the hospital. So they're skipping the care necessary to ensure a healthy birth.

Some experience dangerous complications as a result.

ICE fears put pregnant immigrants and their babies at risk

Fear of deportation is deterring people without permanent legal status from critical care. Doctors are worried for their health — and the health of their pregnancies.
