What Wertheim says is correct. Few government figures are entirely objective relators of the history of their times in office, but McGurk certainly is not. This is one of several screwy passages in his account.

Minneapolis activists used encrypted group chats to outmaneuver ICE. Now the feds want to prosecute them.
"I think courts are going to be very suspicious of how broad this is," one Minnesota lawyer tells Reason.

We’re being fought to a draw by Iran, and we can’t protect our aircraft from them in, ahem, the United Kingdom, but at least the Defense Department is winning the war on — let me check my notes — beards and wokeness. Pete Hegseth is clearly the second coming of George Marshall.

Police identified the motorcyclist accused of attacking Tenaya Stanford, but his name still has NOT been released. Stanford says he followed her for miles while her 1-year-old was in the car, smashed her window, grabbed her by the hair, dragged her into the street and beat her with a steering lock.

Can you imagine if someone "accidentally" overpaid SPS teachers $13 million? The Times would be demanding long prison sentences. Every teacher who cashed their paycheck would be dragged before a committee. The entire school board would have to resign. No bottom to how bad SPD can be at their job.

Update: on Friday a judge threw out the parts of the WA state sheriff's standards law that required sheriffs to meet the same basic standards that police chiefs must meet and didn't allow them to continue to serve after being decertified for misconduct. WA State is likely to appeal.

Also, this is not over. Lula finished just 3 pts behind, and there’s 3 weeks until the runoff. Lula barely won in 2022—it was the closest election in Brazilian history. He could pull it off again.
