Anyone else frustrated with business communication? I have to search emails, texts, teams chats, and teams meeting chats to find a simple conversation. Along the way, a stupid AI pops up claiming to be helpful. It is not.

So it's clear that there are some people in the Epstein files that he was just trying to compromise. And they may very well be collateral damage abd innocent.
I don't care though because people REALLY need to pay better attention to who tf they affiliate with.

The current 1-year running mean for the temperature anomaly is just under 1.45°C.
According to the Climate 8-Ball, the 1-year running mean should bottom out at about 1.40°C by early Summer before making a sharp turn back up later this year, finishing the year above 1.52°C.

Floored by this story. A man wrote a pollite email to a federal prosecutor objecting to the deportation of an Afghan seeking asylum. DHS responded with an administrative warrant to get the man's info from Google, then visited his home to intimidate him.

Again, this is FALSE. Administrative warrants are NOT signed by an immigration judge (or any judge at all). They are generated and signed by ICE officers themselves with no external oversight whatsoever.
Here is a blank sample warrant. Note who signs off on it; an "immigration officer."

happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.

Saving to sort later. Hand counting would usually be smaller districts
Minnesota hand-counted 41 precincts. Machine-counted 361 in same area, same size.
Hand counts: normal patterns. Machine counts: 6-8% systematic shift + turnout anomalies.
When you actually count by hand, the algorithm disappears. I’m sure this is just a coincidence. 🙄
No coincidence in crime 😉

I think Minnesota could do a lot worse for a tourism slogan than "Minnesota: we treat Nazis like Nazis"
Q: Can you be specific about how many ICE and CBP agents are currently operating in the state?
HOMAN: 3,000. There's been some rotations. They've been in theater a long time. Day after day, can't eat in restaurants, people spin on you, blowing whistles at you. But my main focus now is draw down
