Elon Musk has argued on X that if a serious crime is on video, the accused should be executed immediately.

yeah, sheriffs used to beat up suspects as a way to prevent lynchings (often bc lynch mobs would kill the deputies to break into the jail.). almost like the criminalizing system is...bad.

"He has long been considered an affable presence in the community, and has stood out as a law enforcement official who is extremely hawkish on immigration."

The Army Navy Country Club is a high-class place.

There, D.C.’s elite can unwind in card rooms or gorge themselves at banquets. Or, they can plot ways to deploy the military on U.S. soil.

Horrific. Georgia police charged a woman with murder after she allegedly used misoprostol. Hospital may have reported her.

@pregnancyjust.bsky.social calls it “an unprecedented murder charge for an alleged abortion, even though no law in the state of Georgia permits such a charge." bit.ly/46W2Ezb

It’s just so miserable to be party to a lawsuit. It takes a long time; it’s v stressful and traumatic. And they happen after the fact.

It’s a pernicious belief in this country that suing someone is justice.
