Mayor Smiley promised us the “best run city in America,” and we are curious when exactly we’ll make progress toward that goal.
Here’s what he said when announcing his run for mayor in 2022, from a ProJo article by Amy Russo. ⤵️

This is notable to me because I've heard from some other lawyers that they're not worried about AI hallucinations because they only use the premium Westlaw or Lexis versions. Supposedly, they are limited to the real case databases

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

Fwiw several people whose grandparents fled the holocaust to come to the USA made this exact comparison to me in Minnesota last week, saying this was what their grandparents told them about. The difference is that people in Minnesota have their neighbors’ backs.
my grandmother, an Auschwitz survivor, was Anne Frank’s neighbor in Amsterdam, and Oma thinks this comparison is perfectly apt
The Minnesota governor is getting widespread criticism for comparing children dealing with immigration enforcement to Holocaust victim Anne Frank.

Holy shit, there's an open carry #2A protest of ICE happening in Douglas County Colorado -- a very wealthy and very red suburb county of Denver. (I lived there for 16 years.) The Trump Administration pissing off committed gun owners sufficiently for them to join the protests against ICE is wild.
