NEW: Police in Wisconsin used Flock to determine that a man “travels to Michigan frequently,” where marijuana is legal, then back to Wisconsin, where it is illegal. They then used his travel across state lines as tracked by Flock as part of the probable cause justification to search his car.
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.

it's so so so cool that william lawrence won. he can totally beat tom"peepants" barrett
Tonight we find out whether Michigan voters are bluesky posters or bluesky replyers
oh my god he's gonna actually lower gas prices before the election
Trump on gas prices: "We're gonna down into the $3s and maybe the $2s pretty soon per gallon"
i know votes are still being counted but the more i look at this michigan senate map the more it becomes clear that it kind of looks like a mitten
the one thing kornacki brought up is making me realize i have no idea where the ann arbor townies stand on this vote
watching the steve kornacki live election coverage and damn this guy is making so many assumptive, demographics-based generalizations about my lovely state
"oh nooooo our coalition is breaking apart. looks like we gotta try changing nothing and see how far that alone can get us"
As a voter who lives in Michigan, I continue to be shocked by the democratic party's vilification of those of us who cast a symbolic protest vote in the last primary. How tf is this supposed to motivate me to support the party establishment?? www.semafor.com/article/07/3...
maasdam and brink cannibalized each other's voting base. makes sense because they seemed like identical candidates. i truly couldn't tell you how one's moderate views differed from the other. they both just really wanted to "stand up to trump," whatever that means for a representative

this episode did it's job. podcasting is so powerful
hey guys me and @howintensive.bsky.social did this thing again and tbh its really really good but you should probably listen while you eat lunch. we talk Tubby's vs Big John's in a regional steak sandwich battle. we talk shit about haley stevens. i look at dragons. open.spotify.com/episode/4VQv...
one hundred percent. mcmorrow probably could have beaten abdul. or at least had a better chance down the stretch than haley
it's so cool having everyone talking about michigan. this is how josh and jase got famous, they just paid attention to us for a little bit
Weird to see people talking about the Michigan Senate primary ending tonight. It will never end
Whoa this is crazy Adam Scott's character from Step Brothers just won the Michigan primary????
this argument by Stevens never made much sense because lots and lots of michiganders could consider themselves "coastal" on account of the pleasant peninsulas
The coastal elites of Michigan have spoken
i just remembered this video where alan thicke sings a weird song about canada and a guy in the second row of the card-flipping group has the worst two minutes of his life youtu.be/24svxMlLJMc?... (thank you for everything over the years @downgoesbrown.bsky.social)

dude, i don't know where you got your pop from, but i am positive you got it from the wrong place
Two teams of U.S. Department of Justice observers are swinging through polling places in Lansing, MI today. They sit off to the side, jot a few notes and move on. A Michigan Department of State official monitoring the monitors tells me they’ve been uniformly kind and cordial.
i highly recommend voting for abdul and then getting a quality dairy big dip ice cream cone. it's a fantastic combo
Michigan, it’s Election Day. If you haven’t voted yet, the polls are open now until 8PM. Make your voice heard. Find your polling location at abdulforsenate.com/vote!
