“Expanding community oversight of policing has been an uphill battle for decades,” Senator McKnight said. “My hope is that the conversation around CCRBs continues to grow, and as more towns and cities voice their support, we can finally move the needle toward turning this legislation into law.”

A state senator representing Jersey City says civilian oversight boards need to be granted investigatory powers to make real change. “My goal at the state level is to establish a clear framework that guides their work,” she said in a written statement.
New Jersey Cities Are Pressing Resistant State Officials for Civilian Police Oversight
Local officials in Newark, Jersey City, and Trenton want civilian agencies that can investigate police and issue subpoenas. But they keep running into the state’s Democratic leaders.

In the aftermath of his attack on Venezuela, three flash polls conducted by separate outlets found that more Americans oppose the war than support it.
Congrats to Donald Trump on Starting the Least Popular War in Recent Memory
Americans usually love a new war, but polls show Trump’s attack on Venezuela is deeply unpopular.

⚖️ A court will hear arguments as the NAACP seeks to void Missouri’s call for a special session to redraw the state’s congressional map and rewrite the ballot initiative process.
The proposed map would give the GOP an extra seat at the expense of Black voters in Kansas City.

I’m in agreement with most of the comments so far. There should be a national ban on Gerrymandering, because in the mean time it’s ramping up to be an arms race to snatch seats. @jamestalarico.bsky.social “voters should be choosing their politicians, politicians shouldn’t be choosing their voters”
"Gerrymandering is wrong when Democrats do it and when Republicans do it. It is wrong in in red states and in blue states." That said, what Texas is doing is uniquely wrong and undemocratic.

Trump said this would the best burger, better than all other burgers, and only one chef , the best chef, could serve it up.
He took payment in advance and is now serving an empty plate. His patrons are hungry, and the immigration appetizer is tasting sour since farm hands and day laborers are used.

Personally I wouldn’t talk to police officers like this, but I support everyone’s use of the first amendment.
I also jealously gaurd my fourth amendment rights.
I would be outraged if my refusal to engage in a consensual encounter escalated into my civil rights being fucked.

This also highlights so much as to why I support idea of immigration and customs enforcement, but not ICE.
It’s been weaponized, because there is not an invasion. Miller is pushing them to make arrest by any means necessary, numbers for numbers sake. Ifs disgusting!
