Anyone who voted to give more funding for this deserves to be unelected. Abolish ICE.

Holy shit. Renee Good was alive when the bystander physician asked to check her pulse. She was alive when ICE refused to let him help. She was alive when they told him “I don’t care.”

Absolutely horrific details about an ICE shooting in Minneapolis. A witness says a woman was trying to drive away from an ICE operation and the ICE agent "reached across the hood of the car and shot her in the face like three, four times." Bovino was there.

For years, Google Maps was unable to provide me any directions from my saved location "Home" -- I had to type my actual address. Just found out it's because my home address was set to the phrase "Your Saved Location".

I paid $250 for a rental car. Hertz charged me an extra $6 when I returned the car. I asked why. They said that's just the way it is. I asked why their website lied about the total. I sent them a receipt for $250. Reader, I got my $6 back. And 200 points.

Bicyclist was just doored on Butler St. He dipped in and out of consciousness before being taken by the ambulance. The police decided not to show up because “the biker left the scene.” In an ambulance. This is why our city crash data sucks — nothing is reported. 2023 had more than five crashes.
