The longer I live, the more I read, the more patiently I think, and the more anxiously I inquire, the less I seem to know...Do justly. Love mercy. Walk humbly. This is enough

Swank is unfit to serve Pierce County. Even law enforcement knows it. The sheriff should serve our county, not just his personal agenda. #approve53 #piercecountyvotes

tired: bluesky is dying wired: bluesky is slowly turning into a minnesota-only social media network. Soon it will become another local curiosity like saying "parking ramp" instead of "parking garage" and playing duck duck gray duck

Mediocre sear with grey band. Gotta get the pan rippin’ hot, which clearly did not happen here. Otherwise the temp looks good, few flakes of salt and a chimichurri and I would throw down.

The ICE officer who faces charges for road raging in Minneapolis (pulling a gun on a random motorist who blocked him from driving his unmarked SUV on the shoulder) broke into tears on the stand and said he was under a lot of stress, ok?
Morgan, who was abruptly called up to the Twin Cities from Washington, D.C., said he did not want to join the surge because he was unfamiliar with the area and had heard reports of animosity toward immigration officers.

“I’m not used to that, I’ve never seen something like that in policing,” he said.

The agent broke down in tears while testifying about feeling unsafe and overwhelmed during Operation Metro Surge, describing the atmosphere as a “riot” where he faced relentless harassment, racial slurs and threats of death.

Through a shaky voice, Morgan described the toll his brief deployment took on him and his family.

“I’ve never experienced something like this before,” he said. “I had to take my daughter out of school… because I did the job I’m supposed to do.”

Morgan’s second-degree assault charges stem from a Feb. 5 incident during the surge, when state prosecutors say he illegally drove an unmarked SUV on a Minneapolis freeway shoulder before pointing a firearm at the occupants of a white Cadillac that repeatedly swerved to block him.

We had a raccoon peer into our back sliding glass door a week or so ago. Big as shit and bold as brass. Had to rap on the window to get it off the porch. But they have left my yard alone.

He’s renting and apparently the homeowners have been non responsive to the problem. I would tell him to let them deal with it, but!

“Mike” says he. “Is it legal in Washington to shoot these things with an air rifle?” I said I was not a lawyer but that sounds both legal and a helluva good time.

I have a new neighbor whose kids are friends with my kids. We exchange pleasantries at the bus stop. Man’s got a raccoon problem. Been tearing up the front lawn searching for grubs. Which is a behavior I was not aware of.

It’s almost certainly nothing more than a Troopie patrolling where he’s told with little on his mind except his next meal, beer or lay. But it’s a good way to burn goodwill to no benefit.

The greatest threat to the family of a DHS agent is the DHS agent in their family. Has always been so.

ICE and or INS has been around for a long time and it’s always been an extremely safe branch of federal law enforcement.

Joe Rogan: “Look, I can see why they put a mask on their face because they get targeted…,” They don’t though! ICE never wore masks before 2025 and they were never in any danger! God damn do I hate that shit.

Washington has open presidential primaries and two years ago I voted in the GOP one to vote against Trump, specifically. Now I get GOP election texts. Anyway if you're wondering who to vote against in the Washington supreme court races, here's who the GOP is endorsing.
Did you know 6 of 9 Supreme Court Justices were appointed by a Democrat Governor?

we have a chance this year to elect 5 objective non partisan judges to the Supreme Court.
Please don't leave the judges off your ballot!

Vote:
 - Scott Edwards Pos No. 1
 - David Stevens Pos No. 3
 - Sean O'Donnell Pos No. 4
 - Dave Larson Pos No. 5
 - Todd Bloom Pos No. 7

My oldest just finished “The Dark Knight Returns”. And so I got to talk to him about Ronald Reagan, the youth crime wave, leaded gasoline and the greatest single frame in Batman history.

In the immortal words of Alec Baldwin, I am not fucking with you. She was once obliged to give me a poster of Ann Coulter because I answered a question correctly at a talk given by late conservative pundit Mike Davis. I smiled sweetly and said “this will fit nicely on my dart board”

This stinks to high heaven of UCI. I think this guy should be separated, but there’s no good reason I know of why he should be in pretrial confinement at all.
