  1. Sherriff ID'd suspect, but I didn't get the name. Suspect has history with both Buffalo PD and Wright County Sheriff Office dating back to 2003. Several explosives devices were found in his hotel room at the neighboring Super 8, Minneapolis PD bomb squad/ATF working the scene.
  2. Presser now on MPR. https://www.mprnews.org/story/2021/02/09/police-say-multiple-people-have-been-shot-at-a-clinic-in-buffalo-minn?fbclid=IwAR3qJr3KJq8_StkOpviPES4RLRy7qLg7fTwDySUt6BFgjWxk5EmBosYMXsg Buffalo PD in presser now. Says that they are familiar with the suspect.
  3. Disenfranchisement?! Trump is clearly getting what he paid for.
  4. And some still think Kristi Noem is God's gift to governance.
  5. The real Big, Bad John.
  6. Bellichek thought he had more to do with the dynasty than he actually did.
  7. KC looked like ass for 3 quarters last year against the Niners, but Mahomes looks like trash and they've dug too big of a hole.
  8. WINFIELD!!!! Gophers coming through...
  9. Right now Gronk is the MVP
  10. It's a long way back from U2 and Prince, but I'd put this in the second tier with Jackson and Bruno Mars.
  11. Whoever is mixing the sound is asleep at the switch. This sounds terrible.
  12. Super Bowl halftime shows start with U2 and end with Prince.
  13. That was the first funny commercial in at least 4 years
  14. https://www.startribune.com/video-weeks-before-pinning-george-floyd-three-of-the-same-officers-roughly-detained-the-wrong-man/600018251/ Ho. Lee. Fuck. Not sure how much of this can be introduced as evidence in the Floyd trial. But if there was any more doubt that all three involved will be getting lengthy stays courtesy of the Minnesota Department of Corrections, there isn't any now. https://video.startribune.com/video-officers-involved-in-george-floyds-death-used-similar-methods-before/600018239/
  15. I forgot that he also was Cmdr. Rochefort in Midway opposite Henry Fonda and Charlton Heston, Deep Throat in All the President's Men, and narrated a bunch of documentaries.
  16. He also played Dirty Harry's vigilante commander.
  17. For those about to (shot) we salute you!
  18. Doug Ducey won't be challenging Mark Kelly in Arizona. Considering he was the best of Kelly's challengers, this race looks a lot less competitive. https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/535535-arizona-gov-ducey-says-he-wont-run-against-mark-kelly-for-senate
  19. I first thought that Ohio is to Democrats as Minnesota is to Republicans: fools gold. Then I looked, and Sherrod Brown won a second term by daylight on the same ballot as Mike DeWine, and Obama won it in 2012, so who knows what to make of that race. It's a hard lift, but it's worth looking at. Iowa is a red state now, even if Chuck Grassley is unable or unwilling to run again. Ditto for Florida, unless Rubio gets taken out from his right flank and Trump can break the GOP there. Ron Johnson was dragged in by the Trump wave, but that was also the last time a Republican won a statewide race there. So 2022 election will be fought in Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, and North Carolina. Imagine that. FYI: the senators for the next state admitted sort into Classes 1 and 2, which means appointments to fill the seat immediately after admission, specials in 2022, and full terms in 24 and 26. I'm not sure who/how appointments would be made from DC. I read the statehood acts for both Alaska and Hawaii, and both directed the territorial governor to make the initial appointments.
  20. Nate Silver did an analysis of potential voting in an impeachment a couple of years ago. His prediction was that the 67th vote would have to be Roy Blunt, but that was before Dem Senate losses in 2018 and a coup attempt on January 6..
