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.

Also: Rabb and Lander and Valdez and Avila Chevalier were wild and thrilling wins. But they were in deep blue districts. El-Sayed and Lawrence are huge because they're in swing states/districts. People EVERYWHERE are tired of do-nothing centrism and sending money overseas to fund atrocities.
@nmdoj.bsky.social’s complaint alleges that "the federal government has refused, without adequate legal justification, to share records that could help investigators identify witnesses, corroborate evidence, and determine the full scope of crimes that occurred in New Mexico."
BREAKING: The New Mexico Department of Justice has sued Acting AG Todd Blanche and the DOJ, requesting the court for access to unredacted Epstein-related investigative files that the DOJ has been withholding.
Here's a quick recap about last night in Michigan, expectations settting, how a disappointing trifecta set the stage for progressive wins, and why having different paths to victory is good for Democrats, actually. prospect.org/2026/08/05/p...
Progressives Make Major Gains in Michigan - The American Prospect
Though Abdul El-Sayed didn’t win by as much as anticipated, it was a strong night. Now the proposition about progressives in swing seats will be tested.

Mike Johnson tells Politico that he's standing behind Republican Max Miller — despite the "serious" domestic abuse allegations against him.
Kind of impressed they managed to find someone almost as creepy looking as Stephen Miller to flank Vance on the other side.
This is just rank Islamophobia and anti-Arab racism, based on the bigoted idea that there is something inherently scary about a president with the last name "El-Sayed." It is incumbent on all of us to call it out.

BREAKING: Donavan McKinney has defeated incumbent Shri Thanedar in the MI-13 Democratic Primary! McKinney is an unapologetic progressive while Thanedar is a pro AIPAC pro genocide corporate puppet. A huge win for working people in MI!
My answer is LOL ROFL (dickbrain) The terminally AI-pilled can't even *imagine* some people have *never* asked stochastic parrots to cheat at their job for them.
Progressives are always expected to hold their noses and vote for the Dem in the general no matter what... Interesting that the loser right-wing Dems are already acting like they might allow a republican to win in Michigan. That would mean Trump might get to appoint another supreme court justice.
❄️ ABOLISH ICE@kskm3.bsky.social · 7h agoIf those losers split the ticket and hand trump a vote for a supreme court justice, they should stop calling themselves democrats and just become republicans.
Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.
Brown University has a widget that tracks the cost of the Iran war to American consumers (as contrasted to whatever the Pentagon is spending). Per-household cost now exceeds $600. iranwarcost.watson.brown.edu
Slotkin sucks. Such a disappointment. Can’t wait to campaign hard for anyone else.
David Dayen@ddayen.bsky.social · 16h agoElissa Slotkin, who believes she's running for president, endorsed and did straight-to-camera ads for Maasdam. Woeful underperformance from him here.
no matter what happens tonight, Kornacki just said that Stevens severely underperformed in southwestern Michigan so at least I did my job.

Detroit ALWAYS does this lol. We won’t have E Day til like 5 in the morning. If Stevens were leading by thirty points on E Day I’d start to get a little nervous. She’s not even close to that number and she got absolutely blown out in Grand Rapids.

Might as well treat anything Axios publishes here as fiction at this point.
Mike Rogers is not a shoo in. He lost in 2024, and Trump is not popular in Michigan.
It's my fault, I was paid $120,000 to advise the Stevens campaign and I said she needed to talk like an American Dad side character. I said I would kill myself if she didn't do it
kinda bullshit that the other guy didn't even come up with a funny new character to be. he just talked normal the whole time. doesn't seem fair

The Red Sox have just won 29 of 34 for the first time in the team's 126-year history. I'm commemorating the occasion by playing Peabo Bryson & Roberta Flack's "Tonight, I Celebrate My Love For You."
