the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.
Lmao is this supposed to be a bad thing?

Please remember that the disgust people have over Christopher Columbus is not based on some modern, 21st century “woke” ideology, but rather on contemporaneous accounts of atrocities that make many modern genocides appear quaint in comparison.

It is time that Democrats not only match what Republicans are doing with gerrymandering, but exceed it. Every Democratic controlled state needs to be looking to redrawing their maps -- not to gain 5 seats like in TX, but cumulatively 15, 20 or 30 seats. We must use every tool available.

If only this poor lad had been exposed to the Ten Commandments…
Oklahoma State Superintendent Walters falsely claims he's been cleared of screening a video of naked women during a meeting. When a reporter says the County Sheriff's Office didn't clear him, Walters said it told him yesterday he was cleared.
The sheriff's office said an hour ago he wasn't cleared.

a big thing I learned about supply chains in February 2020 is even if US trade policies with China went back to what they were under Biden *today*, it would still take several months for normal production and sea shipments to restart and there are already major ripple effects from changes in orders

This is a big deal—not just a process-based ruling, but a holding that Trump’s Alien Enemy Act proclamation is substantively invalid on its face.
This will obviously not be the last word, but it’s a really important step in the AEA litigation.
