A Sheriff in Louisiana Has Been Destroying Records of Deputies’ Alleged Misconduct for Years
--
A lawsuit brought by the family of an autistic teen who died while in custody found the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office destroyed the disciplinary records of the deputy involved.

A ProPublica, WWNO/WRKF investigation found JSPO rarely sustained complaints against officers, despite allegations of excessive force, discrimination & wrongful death at hands of deputies.

This tornado emergency-warned storm in Alabama looks less like a QLCS and more like a supercell with an entourage. #WxMastodon

Stop giving religions a “pass” simply because they boast many adherents. A disheveled individual talking to herself on a street corner is seen as mentally ill - but if well dressed & surrounded by others doing likewise, she is seen as religious - even pious.
Abraham prepared to kill his son based on “God’s instruction,” & is lauded for his obedience. Anyone doing so today would go to the psych ward & possibly prison. We must live in #reality rather than #fantasy. #criticalthinking #atheist #RTS

Is Matt Schlapp grabbing a younger, politically much less powerful dude’s junk against his will Hunter Biden’s fault yet?

It’s not illegal to accidentally have classified documents. It’s illegal to take them and refuse to give them back.

Despite what the right would have us believe, there is no equivalency whatsoever between the documents found at Biden's old think tank and Trump's theft of hundreds of classified documents stashed at Mar-a-Lago. And now, none other than Karl Rove has gone on Fox News to make just that point.

When Fox News loses Karl Rove... 😂

The editor of a conservative news site wished everyone a happy 2023 and urged them to “shoot guns and watch college football.” Ten days later, she shot herself in the foot while watching a bowl game. Usually, the amount of time between the “f around” and “find out” stages is a little longer than that.

If you thought Ohio’s redistricting mess would be over by now, you thought wrong.

All of Ohio's maps have been ruled unconstitutional and ordered to be redrawn. But Ohio lawmakers keep refusing to meet the deadlines to draw new maps.

We have to protect our children from critical thinking or drawing logical conclusions about race. White children are too fragile to know the realities of America.
