Coming out and saying, “This is what happens when you let good cops be cops” when the dude’s family turned him in is wild but what else can you expect from these people.

I encourage everyone to look out for their safety and practice good internet hygiene, of course. But some of the scolding posts I've read suggest we can change the awful aftermath of a fateful event by just holding our tongues and being quiet little mice, and that isn't my experience.

a lot of people on the right are going to be pretending to be concerned about guns and political violence today. as it happens, this was just published today about how the present administration is handling gun violence in DC during a hostile occupation it claims it is doing for "safety" reasons
D.C. banned high-capacity magazines capable of feeding guns dozens of bullets at a time. The Trump Administration will no longer charge people for carrying them, calling the ban "unconstitutional." 51st.news/high-capacit...
High-capacity gun magazines are illegal in D.C. Trump no longer wants to prosecute violators.
City officials say high-capacity magazines can be particularly deadly.

It’s wild watching everyone be so happy while someone was disappeared from my block in DC yesterday.

I can’t believe that having the Commanders back in DC is more important than the rights of the residents. Absolute bullshit!!

A package was delivered to the wrong address, and I’m 99% sure that I know who got it, and they’re keeping it. We’re 18+ hours post-delivery and they’ve taken trash out, so they’re home. Can’t afford to just throw money away so now I’ve gotta figure out how to confront them…

On vaccines, immigration, trade, race, gay rights, crime — name your issue — the entire country is now trapped by the bigotries and delusions of a sunsetting old man whose worldview is stuck in 1986.

Schumer is acceding to the GOP’s plan to blow up D.C.’s budget by prohibiting us from spending a billion dollars *of our own money,* forcing devastating cuts to vital services out of pure spite toward our city and its residents. And he doesn’t bother defending his decision to throw us under the bus.
In @nytopinion.nytimes.com

The Republican budget bill is "a terrible option," Chuck Schumer, the Senate minority leader, writes in a guest essay. But "the risk of allowing the president to take even more power via a government shutdown is a much worse path."

A government shutdown would lead to real pain for the American people.

This is a terrible move @msnbc.com. Terrible. The @joy.msnbc.com was a critical part of the evening line-up and @joyannreid.bsky.social brings trenchant political analysis that no one else in the evening line-up has brought. I urge you to reconsider this. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/23/b...

Bravo to Sen. Alsobrooks for her question.

“We should not be giving Black people the same vaccine schedule as Whites because their immune system is better than ours.” — RFK Jr

This is the deadlier version of the racist myth that Black people feel less pain, leading to denied pain meds.
