Sir, that farm was raided by government agents who disappeared people and their families can’t find them
Atlantic editor: So?
Sir, a woman screamed racial slurs at black people and said “I am a racist” as she was doing it

The mayor's letter asks the City Council to spend money it doesn't have on police recruits that don't exist to solve a problem that is fake.
There is no magic ratio of police officers to residents that will make LA more safe. The unsupported obsession with 10,000 officers is bankrupting us.

Yesterday, Mayor Karen Bass sent a letter to city council urging them to allocate $4.4 million to hire 410 LAPD officers. I wrote earlier about LAPD going over budget on hiring, w/o permission or identifying $ to cover the overages. Budget/finance committee was not happy.

I’m curious as to what polish people think about Paweł Janas. He did lead your country to a World Cup and he is arguably responsible for Lukas Podolski not playing for Poland and to a lesser extent Miroslav Klose.
