Glad they unearthed the black and white high school yearbook photo but it's only going to increase the weaponization of federal law enforcement when Trumpers realize Ilhan Omar was the girl in high school who wouldn't give them the time of day.

Don't trust anyone using Anders Folk as a testimonial for the illegal peptides they sell in the parking lot of a Planet Fitness. Not FDA approved. You don't know where they came from.
screenshot of Jacob Frey video promoting Anders Folk for county attorney. Frey in windbreaker looking sweaty. Folk standing there, no emotion, staring at the camera, wearing oversized sweatshirt and vest that look way too big, making his head look tiny. photoshopped bottle of illegal peptides in Frey's hands added for comedic effect.

When you're sweating in short sleeves after sunset, it's hard to believe October is included among the 7 months of Minnesota winter during which it's too frigid to ride a bike, according to the best estimates of assholes holding microphones at community meetings.

I asked the Waymo rep whether they allow their cars to park in bike lanes. She said they do, depending on city regulations. Would they comply if the city prohibits Waymo from parking in bike lanes? She said she would have to get back to me on that. LAWLESS!

Today the Minneapolis City Council's Climate & Infrastructure Committee will be discussing the city's 2-way bikeways and conflicts with right turning vehicles at signalized intersections. Most of these intersections don't have signage prohibiting a right turn through a red light.

I'm urging everyone who had to get an AI summary to tell them who Hasan Piker is to not weigh in on the CONTROVERSY. This includes all of our elderly TV pundit political science professors.

Minnesota law enforcement officials announce new strategy to allow for things like connecting spent bullet casings in one community to recovered guns in another — something you probably thought we'd been doing routinely since at least the mid-90s.
Technology has improved so much since that massive amounts of forensic data can now be stored and cross-referenced to link crimes and generate leads earlier amongst local, state and federal levels. "There might be a recovered gun in one community, a recovered cartridge casing in another," said Evans. "We need to bring all that information together and put it together to paint a picture of the individuals out committing the crimes."
