Police in Wisconsin used Flock to track a man who traveled to Michigan, where marijuana is legal, then back to Wisc., where it is illegal They then used his travel as part of the probable cause justification to search his car for weed and he eventually was arrested

Cops Used Flock to Track a Man Across State Lines to Create Pretext to Search His Car for Weed

"The vehicle travels to Michigan frequently which is a known source state for marijuana as it is legal there," a probable cause justification reads.

Something I've noticed is that it seems like there's been a lot more diarrhea going on ever since we put a Greater Avatar of Diarrhea in charge of federal health services

Somehow things that would have been a background gag in a Verhoeven movie are now just real

We are witnessing progress in real time. Democrats are finally standing up to AIPAC and demanding an end to US complicity in genocide.

El-Sayed: "I believe our kids have a right to our tax dollars. I'm about 10 min away from schools that look like they did 50 years ago. Our money should be spent here rather than sent in the form of bombs or tanks to foreign govts, particularly when they are doing most heinous things with them ... "

El-Sayed: "Once a government agency like ICE is told it has impunity to do the worst things and violate the highest law of the land, which is the Constitution itself, I don't think you can reform or retrain. I think we need to start from scratch ... I think we need to abolish it."

same with Saint Ruth Bader Ginsberg and her chummy vacations with Antonin Scalia how loud do they have to yell WE'RE ON THE SAME TEAM before people listen

remembering when James Carville being married to a GOP operative was sold as an endorsement of bipartisan comity and not that it meant he liked and endorsed Republican policies

i think el-sayed winning the michigan senate primary will permanently break the brains that were being held together by string since mamdani

Letting this happen was a choice.

Background heating is at ~1.5°C and ~427 ppm CO2 We are not prepared for the next increment of heating.

Abdul El-Sayed was outspent 9-to-1 by AIPAC and corporate Super PACs in the most expensive Senate Democratic primary of all time. Last night, he proved that organized people can beat organized money.

@abdulelsayed.bsky.social triumphing over something like $60 million, $32-ish million of it AIPAC money, is not a "narrow" victory, it's a people's earthquake. This kind of spending is oligarchy in action, to smother democracy through its formal channels, and is getting normalized. Still he won.

Your little oopsie "mistakes" had me worrying for a year of my life about my partner going to jail for up to a decade based on lies likely fed to you by the top of the federal government. Show everyone what you're covering up in these emails and texts. There's a reason you don't want them released.

Boutros acknowledges 'mistakes' in 'Broadview 6' case but says sanctions, special counsel aren't needed

Chicago's top federal prosecutor noted in a court filing that his office has already dropped charges in the case, implemented “robust root-cause changes” and started the process of reviewing over 1,00...

Guys like this don’t realize that they are the freak

Waking up to Sharia Law in NYC is crazy. Knicks won, crime is down, 2,000 toddlers are going to school for free, parents got “date night” with nyc babysitters, they’re building housing on city land, small businesses are saving money and selling ice cream. Its sunny out i should go get one.

Abdul El Sayed talkin bout being outspent 11:1 but lookin like his supporters got a win regardless. It’s a nice twist on “get the money out of politics” to instead be like “we can defeat the money”

Abdul El-Sayed has won, NBC News says. And there are other wins for the left in Michigan: —William Lawrence wins his U.S. House primary. —A DSA-backed candidate is leading a Democratic incumbent for state House. —Abbas Alawieh, co-founder of Uncommitted, leads for state Senate.

The media's takeaway from an El-Sayed win is the same as it would have been from a Stevens win, and the same as it will be if El-Sayed wins the general, or if he loses it: everyone, no matter who they are, needs to take several steps to the right.

In other Michigan news, the state looks set to elect it's first transgender lawmaker. Joanna Whaley won her Democratic primary and will compete in November for a state house seat, beating a primary opponent who tried and failed to disqualify her for not running under her deadname

Today, for the first time in New York City history, 2,000 two year-olds received offers for FREE 2-K. A big step for those who take baby steps. A big step towards a City every New Yorker can afford.

the ragnarok lobster guy deleted all his posts about how haley stevens was gonna win. that’s how cold politics is. ragnarok lobster is abandoning you before the polls even close

Never doubt the power of cripplingly insecure men to fuck up the world in new and unimaginable ways, indeed it’s the only thing that has.

The main thing we have learned from the war in Iran is that the US military industrial complex? Actually a giant scam that only serves to enrich CEOs of private companies.

i guess im really impressed that all the load-bearing fictions held for as long as they did. especially given that it turned out to largely be load-bearing fictions all the way down

Oh my god the dietician who is telling everyone in the White House to only eat steak and sauerkraut doesn't wipe his ass.

an actual explicitly expressed case of "I get my way or else Rs should win" that shitheads like this dum-dum constantly accuse leftists of being for

the intentional abdication by Congress of nearly all of its constitutional responsibilities is at the core of most of our problems as a nation

This is true.

Fuck the world the comfortable are so desperate to preserve. It will die, and they will be dragged to a better one.

So no more half-measures, no more politeness, and no more fucking meeting in the middle. Every tradition weighing upon the world today like a rusted yoke must be named and uprooted and purged, and every doddering fence-sitter pushed over the edge with the rest of the sun-baked garbage.
