  1. Ron Johnson wants another term in Wisconsin.
  2. Anytime a gun goes off when the responsible person didn't intend to is a negligent discharge. https://www.poynter.org/reporting-editing/2021/the-difference-between-accidental-and-negligent-discharge-and-why-journalists-shouldnt-parrot-police-language/
  3. Kim Potter GUILTY of both 1st and 2nd degree manslaughter
  4. Not sure what they're going to do. On the one hand, this Court loves to gut executive branch authority. On the other, the same Court that gave us Jacobson v. Massachusetts turned around and immediately issued Lochner v. New York, which is the cornerstone of modern Republican policy.
  5. The jury is working their second day of deliberations on the case of Kim Potter, who was the Brooklyn Center cop who tried to tase a driver but drew her service weapon instead, shooting and killing the driver. She's facing 1st and 2nd degree manslaughter. She took the stand in her own defense, but couldn't explain her actions while there. That said, no one seems to have any idea what this jury is going to do.
  6. The Abbott tests seem to, based on what I've seen from Delta and other airlines, so long as you follow the instructions during the process. It beats scrambling around whatever city you're in for a test.
  7. IMHO the only way Trump doesn't run again in 2024 is if he's dead or in prison. (I figure it's about an even 3-way split on the chances of each). And the instant he declares, he clears the Republican field. The only consolation is that all of the tampering in Georgia is in Fulton County, not MGT country.
  8. Any issues with getting around Italy with just your vaccine cards in lieu of the Green Pass? Our family is going in January and we have been trying to figure out how all of that works. Also, it looks like they're automatically testing everyone as they're leaving the airport now.
  9. Better hold onto your butts.
  10. Tornadoes may be more dangerous because no one is expecting them in December, but the bigger issue of 60s-to-20s is cold temps plus power outages.
  11. I don't think there will be enough energy here in the Twin Cities for things to really crank up, but the fact we're discussing any of this on DECEMBER 15 is batshit crazy.
  12. This explained why Hannity was trending on Twitter.
  13. Considering that bed occupancy in Minnesota has been roughly 90/10 unvaccinated since roughly August, you can lay this mess squarely at their feet.
  14. FAFO
  15. Has anyone checked on THUJONE lately?
  16. Yes. Something needs to happen in order for Zygi Wilf to sack Spielman and Zimmer. Spitting one up to the Lions would do the trick.
  17. Herbert Hoover did the exact same thing in the Mississippi Delta country as Secretary of Commerce under the guise of flood relief, and parlayed that into a successful Presidential run. We all know how that turned out.
  18. For those unfamilar with the Stallings case... The POST board is Minnesota's police licensing board. It's a slow process to make the changes outlined in the first article, but things are moving in the right direction.
  19. FIFY. He's currently doing at least 17 years at OPH after being convicted of all charges..
  20. It was a good day.
