  • Inspector Anderson came up with what became known as the Brownsville Safety Alliance, a group of neighborhood and city groups, police officers and members of the Kings County district attorney’s office who worked together to ensure that fewer people were arrested and entangled in the criminal justice system.

    Inspector Anderson said he decided he wanted to change the way precinct officers interacted with residents after he approached a woman grilling outside.

    “The look of fear she gave me, and I was like ‘Wow, I didn’t come on this job for someone like that to look at me,’” he said in an interview posted by Mayor Eric Adams on social media in November 2021. “That told me we had work to do.”

    I have to say, this was not the twist I was expecting. I assumed this was a case where he was letting people in who were to prone to aggression or something. Now I wonder.

    I want to know why he overruled the negative psych evaluations. I honestly wouldn't be surprised to find out he was removed because he permitted applicants to progress who failed because the test showed that they weren't violent enough.

    Edit for clarity.

  • Actually the confession/accusation aren't against Biden but his people.

    “It was the people that knew he was cognitively impaired, and that took over the Autopen. They stole the Presidency of the United States, and put us in Great Danger.

    You can take it as read that someone else is putting "Donnie's" XOs under the autopen. I'll bet you dollars against donuts that the architects of Project 2025 are writing some of those XOs and having them signed with the autopen and Trump knows little or nothing about them.

  • Failure by what metric? First off, he went in and destroyed everything he wanted to. He got the FAA to cancel their contract with Verizon and sign with Starlink for communication; He and DOGE gutted agencies that were supposed to regulate SpaceX, Neuralink, Tesla, and X; DoJ dropped a case agains SpaceX; and since he started his rampage, more than 40 agencies have taken no actions on investigations into his companies suggesting they are at least being slow walked if not dropped all together. The transportation department lowered requirements for Tesla and other companies to report incidents with self driving cars, and the FAA gave SpaceX permission to quintuple their number of launches despite the effect on the environment and air travel.

    In what way was this a failure? Because Trump and his people hate him? Frankly, everyone hates Musk these days. Plus, I wear it as a badge of honor when the likes of Trump and his cronies hate me.

  • Exactly. If they had any proof, they could provide it in court, but they do not want to do that. They don't want a thousand trials, they just want to deport tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of people with no oversight.

  • Additionally, the “fat guy” very likely loaded the “bike” with surveillance-ware and surveillance gadgetry before giving the “pizza kid” the “bike”…

    Certainly loaded the bike with surveillance as did all the fat guy's friends and some of their enemies too.

  • “It is absolutely absurd for a district judge to try to dictate the foreign policy and national security of the United States of America,” DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin said. “These are the monsters that the district judge is trying to protect.”

    No. That district judge is trying to protect the all of our due process rights. Rights which are guaranteed under the 14th amendment to each and every person within the jurisdiction of the United States of America, citizen or not. Because if any one person is denied these rights, then they can be denied to any of us. How can you prove you are a not a murderer, or a rapist, or even than you are a citizen if you are denied your right to due process?

  • The Federal Criminal Police Office said in an annual report released on Tuesday that the number of violent crimes with a rightwing motive in Germany was up more than 17% last year to 1,488

    You have to salute their commitment to the bit.

  • Trump's Golden Dome idea is impossible. The tech and resources to defend even the contiguous 48 states against even North Korea's level of ICBM capabilities does not exist.

    The truth is that the whole program is intended to pour federal money into the hands of the wealthy. In fact, Musk already has the lead in providing the system as of this April 17th article from Reuters. And the icing on the cake is this.

    In an unusual twist, SpaceX has proposed setting up its role in Golden Dome as a "subscription service" in which the government would pay for access to the technology, rather than own the system outright.

  • Yeah, I can't argue with that, but at least he acknowledges the error and is doing something, anything about it.

    Edit to add:

    Democrats unanimously confirmed former Florida Sen. Marco Rubio as Donald Trump’s secretary of state earlier this year...

    Frankly, every Democrat in the Senate should be on the attack and profusely apologizing for their stupidity.

  • “That guy is a human trafficker, that guy is a gang member,” Rubio said.

    “Secretary Rubio should take that testimony to the federal court of the United States because he hasn’t done it under oath,” Van Hollen snapped.

    More Dems need to be doing what Hollen is doing. They need to hold these people's feet to the fire.

  • All of these outcomes leave civil rights attorney Amanda Yarusso “baffled” as to why the city has continued to pursue pending cases

    If they know they can't win and they are pursuing the cases anyway, then the suits themselves are punishment. These people are likely having to pay for legal representation, they anr losing time at work, some could even lose their jobs over the lost time.
