Meet Minnesota Bathrobe Lady Sam Stroozas of MPR News | Minnesota Public Radio Earlier this week, an unexpected and fast-moving incident unfolded in St. Paul, Minnesota involving both federal and local law enforcement. As crowds gathered and questions mounted, one of our MPR New...

hello minnesota and beyond! thank you for your kind messages. it is very weird to be the news when you cover the news. i love this beautiful state and journalism, and i am hopeful for better days. but we will be forever changed bc of the last two months.

Charles is leaking he’ll assist the police if contacted about Andrew.

Hi attorneys! Want to not be able to get to sleep tonight? Here's Judge Rakoff (probably the single most well-respected judge in SDNY) saying that the use of AI destroys both attorney-client privilege and work-product privilege.

This is insane response to a religious event outside the MDC

Signs left on the fence outside the MDC:

A march to the MDC is now underway, turned in time to see at least ten vehicles enter the MDC, vans, CBP vehicles, and rental vehicles. Didn’t catch video of the caravan entering the MDC, unfortunately

Members of Jewish Voice for Peace have gathered together near the MDC for a solidarity Shabbat with their immigrant neighbors who have been under assault by federal agents this last year

hilarious! :)

This Justin Fox?
He does look exactly like what you would get if you asked ChatGPT to generate a photo of a sentient racist lacrosse stick

🤷🏼 "Epstein had dinners with a top Florida prosecutor on his case"

"Menchel, who left the DOJ in 2007, had multiple meetings or dinners with Epstein in 2011, 2013 and 2017."

And, one of Epstein's lawyers was the prosecutor's EX-GIRLFRIEND! Which prosecutor Menchel never told anyone in his office.

Oh come on

This is an embarrassing click bait article and indicates @wsj.com is fully engaged in a race to the bottom. I used rules based AI to do mission planning 25 years ago - Claude (or any other LLM ) wasn’t used for anything critical because neither Palantir or @anthropic can make them work reliably

I’ve never met a child that belongs in prison, because all children should be free.

Abolish all child cages + jails + prisons (so-called juvenile halls, camps, correctional facilities, detention centers, et al.)

They are an expensive stain on our community.

TikTok just started feeding me unsolicited oilfield recruitment videos.

I get it, Al Gorithm, I’m underemployed.

It's incredibly corrosive to the ability of agencies (and society at large) to operate if the executive branch can simply decide to ignore Congress. Having reliable processes is essential to operations of bureaucracies, but Vought et al. don't care. And it's outrageous.

It’s finally done. Absolutely thrilled to have submitted THE SHAH'S GREAT TOUR – my global microhistory of the epic royal journeys of Persia's monarchs to Imperial Europe – for production. May it reshape our understanding of monarchy and the world order in the imperial age.

The day this spreadsheet drops I’ll need to take the day off and update dogetrack.info can’t wait!!

A generation of children is being trained to hate MAGA.

And MAGA is doing the training.

The trauma of now will live on.

this is effectively doing what the Chinese did to the established auto industry in the 90s: condition market access on joint ventures. It's a remarkably logical way through the current impasse, just not one that is an obvious fit with Trump's politics.

seismic stuff, if it comes to pass

i love how even our wildest characterizations of them, in previous years, was completely accurate

like "DEI is when the mere presence or mention of somebody than a straight white male" was played for laughs, a reductio ad absurdum, not THAT many years ago

It's very short. It just addresses some info that came out in court.

There's no overview. I know that's not very satisfying. I'd suggest you look at the thread and maybe look over the "Complaint."

You'll be able to get a sense of the legal arguments.

The details though, Gillian!

Peep the thread. #smh

These 🤡's.

This horrific story on cut government grants for the humanities comes out while the Atlantic is whining about the mellon foundation. almost like the author wants to incite more of this

Fuck these fucking mother fuckers...more people need to know about the Colfax Massacre.

This is an important piece because (finally!) it names at least 1 actual person - Michael McDonald - who signed off on the specific decision. The EOs are BS, but they are NOT law, and they are NOT self-enforcing.

Nothing in the EO required this. McDonald made this call as much as T himself did.
