Police officers in many U.S. cities have recently gotten large pay boosts. Departments are offering these raises to combat understaffing, but some say the money won’t help.

Fox News posts this article mentioning the amount of Marijuana charges that were prosecuted while Kamala Harris was DA, basically stating that she's a hypocrite. It's nearly 2,000. What it neglects to mention is only 45 of them actually ended up doing prison time. Is she perfect? Nope, there are no perfect candidates, but always, ALWAYS, look for context.

Oh... j'ai le même sentiment lorsque je les vois. Ici dans le Jura il y a cette espèce : L'Ancolie (cela raisonne comme mélancolie) que j'ai prise pour vous les diasporistes 😉 et il y a une autre espèce qui s'appelle La Campanule agglomérée - elle est comme l'Ancolie mais sa corolle ne penche pas la tête vers la terre, mais reste ouverte vers le ciel.

Trump Responds To Claims He's 'Cognitively Challenged' In Bafflingly Weird Way


Early in the speech, he delivered a shoutout to Lara Trump ― his daughter-in-law, co-chair of the Republican National Committee, and a North Carolina native ― in the middle of a sentence blaming Vice President Kamala Harris for inflation.

“As vice president, [Harris] cast the tie-breaking votes that created the worst inflation in a half a century, decimating middle class families and hurting very badly as you know all people in North Carolina, and by the way Lara says hello,” Trump said. “Lara. Do we love Lara? How good is Lara? She is terrific.”

He said he had to mention her at that point “because if I forget it later on they’ll say ‘He’s cognitively challenged.’ I don’t want to be cognitively, no, but I want to thank her because she’s unbelievable.”

Salt Lake City, Utah
A little break from the high temperatures this morning. I've opened all the windows to let in some cool air. I'm not sure how fresh it is, but the sky is a pale blue, rather than a solid 'Wildfire Fire Smoke White'. The heatwave will hit close to 100°F today. I plan to get out and enjoy the coolness while I can.

This is the photography work of Tina Modotti. Italian. 1896-1942. She was both a model and photographer.

Judge Who Threatened to Shoot 4 Black Teens in Police Bodycam Rant Faces Possible Removal


In the footage captured by the bodycam, the teens are looking for lost car keys, while Gall can be heard yelling for them to leave and to take an Uber home.

"That’s how I roll. That’s how Mrs. G rolls. That’s how Judge Gall rolls. We’re clearing this place out," she says.

Gall called upon the responding officers to arrest the four teens, and mentioned more than once that she is a judge.

Referring to the Black teens, Gall said that they didn’t “look like they're that smart. They're not going to business school, that's for sure.”

She also threatened to shoot the teenagers, who were still trying to find their lost car keys.

“If they come back looking for it, I’ll call you while they’re on the property,” Gall said. “If they did, they’ll be arrested, or they’ll be shot on the property. Because when they trespass, you can shoot them on the property. I’ll shoot them on the property.”

When an officer responded to requests to arrest the teens by saying he could face a civil rights lawsuit if he arrested the teens without a good reason, Gall assured them they had her support, according to the statement of facts.

“Listen, but guess what, the good part is - the good part is I'm always on your side,” Gall said. “You know I'd take anyone down for you guys. You know that. You know that. You know I am on your side.”
