Hard, fast rule from a veteran police reporter: Excepting anyone engaged in infiltrating a criminal conspiracy in an undercover capacity, any law officer who hides his identity from the public is a shitheel is doing vile shit and is, in fact, actively destroying the credibility of law enforcement.
This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week.

Given undocumented immigrants are being given hysterectomies and then deported by ICE when they complain would you still call Donald Trump a "feminist hero"? www.npr.org/2020/12/22/9...

It's really weird to see people like Tucker Carlson and Megyn Kelly, who once had sweet corporate gigs, have to turn up the creep knob to compete with a generation of personalities that started with an iPhone and a mental disorder.

I simply refuse to accept that police ever have to look like this. this is just pure cosplay. it should be illegal for cops to be dressed like soldiers going to war.

Dems have a real future in generational talents like AOC and now Mamdani.

But instead of seizing on them, party leaders poo poo their ideas and damn them with faint praise about how they’ve energized young people *where they are* but aren’t really a model for anywhere else.

GOP doesn’t do this.

People like this guy are the ones in charge of the Republican party. There are some more reasonable ones in the grassroots, but they have no power. All policy is being driven by people like Joel Webbon.

VOICEOVER: in the criminal justice system, the people are represented by two separate, yet entirely opposite, groups: the police, who are afraid of sandwiches, and sandwich wielders, armed with food consisting of two pieces of bread filled with meat, cheese, and vegetables. these are their stories.

When a chatbot gets something wrong, it’s not because it made an error. It’s because on that roll of the dice, it happened to string together a group of words that, when read by a human, represents something false. But it was working entirely as designed. It was supposed to make a sentence & it did.
