Near Lyndale and 24th Ave in Minneapolis tonight, feds have reportedly shot another person.
Preliminary info is shaky for now, hearing two people injured.
BORTAC just rolled up in an armored vehicle. A crowd is gathering outside the police tape—MPD presence as well.

I know it's hard to shock these days but Elon Musk going full Rhodesia defender and calling for the ethnic cleansing of the US should still shock you.
These are neo nazi views that were only previously shared on explicitly neo nazi sites.

"extending fairness beyond their tribes" hits so fucking hard

What the World Got Wrong About Autistic People
For decades, autism research compared autistic people to animals, denied them moral sensitivity, and assumed autistic traits made them miserable. All wrong.

Trump just vetoed a bill that would fund the completion of a project to bring clean drinking water to rural Colorado.
The bill was passed unanimously by the House and the Senate.
He did so in retaliation for the state refusing to release Tina Peters, who illegally tampered with voting machines.
