Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

“Hundreds” in the streets yesterday in support of the strike?!

indefensible understatement from the Strib here; even yesterday’s early 5pm print deadline would have left room for the truth

Gentle reminder that Gallup has been tracking the most trusted professions for 50 years. Guess what profession is the most trusted for the last 24 years? Nurses.

Minutes after claiming the victim wanted to "massacre" law enforcement, Bovino is asked to specify when exactly the individual allegedly pulled his gun on ICE agents

Bovino then ducks the question and says the incident is "under investigation"

Here is the newly-unsealed State Department memo confirming -- finally -- that the detention of Tufts student Rümeysa Öztürk was based on an op-ed.

No antisemitic activity. No support of terrorism.

An op-ed in a student newspaper.

The Republican position now appears to be that you have a constitutional right to openly carry a gun in public, unless you do so while expressing a view that the government dislikes, in which case the secret police can shoot you to death on the spot.
Minneapolis police chief Brian O'Hara says that the victim was a 37-year-old white man and US citizen with no criminal record and that he was a legally permitted gun owner.

Feels like a goddamn war zone out here.

The constant sound of helicopters, people loudly shouting and cursing at ICE, flash bangs, tear gas, so many people in gas masks and/or face coverings.

There's also a drone hovering above the crowd now.

"Last week’s justification does not get into detail about which methods its 'quantum sensors' would use or what information the AI database would store and analyze." (I assume references to Gemini mean Google's Gemini.)

These bills are spreading throughout the country -- but good news, people do oppose them!

Super-rich chatgroups (and their own posts) have shown they have a whole universe of petty / inexplicable / bigoted / eugenicist grievances that they consider sufficient cause to justify burning down the rule of law, civil order, and international stability that made them rich in the first place.
It is genuinely insane to watch capital decide that allowing this shit to go on is better for them than having to allow the FTC to do mild monopoly investigations and require cancellation buttons on websites.

This guy has a lot to learn about what law enforcement really is in this country.
