Point of order… body cams like dash cams have been more of an assist to police in action than they ever have to finding the bad apples and line cops have wanted them for years.
Dash cams were a godsend as well. A whole lot of videos stopped or corrected legal action in complaints by people because they closed the your word vs mine problem.
Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkYes, more than you know. Once upon a time, I worked for a leading manufacturer of these things. One of the statistics that came out of their use, was that when officers were accused, they were exonerated at a rate of 97% after review of the video. Many agencies also have a nifty policy for officer complaints, when the video is reviewed if additional crimes are exposed new charges will be placed on either the officer or the complainant. Apparently many folks just walk out the door when asked to sign a complaint.
So they are a benefit, IMHO, and when used in an established process with a proper chain of custody, the evidence is usually quite damning.

Meanwhile, in a not so far-fetched scenario, Russia continues their regional hegemony and overruns Ukraine - and then ends up with NATO on her border after all.

Geez, hasn't he already resigned from Congress? Talk about planning.

Foregone conclusion, the Cabinet will be replaced on day one.. I only hope the hundreds of "oddballs" present in other appointed jobs will be broomed out on day as well.

Sadly, a lot of those tears I saw/heard were based on the person being extremely naïve about the subject (because they've been listening to their team's radio station). For example, the knee-jerk reactions of multiple-pierced nut jobs, saying they will get pregnant as often as possible, so they can have as many abortions as they can. Or the same group crying, because Orange man is going to ban contraceptives too.
Fortunately, this is a little like mowing my lawn yesterday, it was very dusty, but I knew that it would eventually die down and blow away in the wind. The good news, is that KH will soon fade into obscurity, along with her cryin' man (Walz), who will go back to doing the job some Minnesotans hired him for.

It’s still curious as to why Langley is the base being targeted for these drone swarms, maybe its proximity to the ocean?I can think of a couple of reasons.

Was at the Museum at Wright-Pat last week, and they've towed it out onto the outdoor display area. Inlet covers and anti-Pidgeon wire (top of the stabilizer) included.

More heartbreaking news out of Lebanon...
Israel kills Ibrahim Aqil, Hezbollah leader who US said was behind 1983 Marine barracks bombing that killed 241 Americans
PS: Wow, I had no idea about AOC and her Oktoberfest qualifying protuberances.

Likely Israel has resources looking at all of the videos in an attempt to identify those with hot pockets.

Tuberville puts hold on military promotion for top Austin aide
“Sen. Tuberville has concerns about Lt. Gen. Clark’s actions during Secretary Austin’s hospitalization,” Tuberville spokesperson Mallory Jaspers told CNN. “Lt. Gen. Clark knew that Sec. Austin was incapacitated and did not tell the Commander in Chief. As a senior commissioned officer, Lt. Gen. Clark’s oath requires him to notify POTUS when the chain of command is compromised.”
I wonder what the POTUS reaction would have, had he known? Anything. He's not really in charge anyway:

Trump started to make this argument, that he stuck with mostly normal policy decisions as examples. If they really focus on highlighting the insanity of the progressive movement, with Kamala as its greatest champion, they can take back the narrative.
To me, Trump does have a strategy here, which is - make sure the other side keeps talking about wacko stuff. It's there to highlight the differences and clearly put KH in a left/woke box.
Her luster will begin to wear off, just not sure when.

If I was Kamala, this statement isn’t giving me a warm fuzzy https://barackobama.medium.com/my-statement-on-president-bidens-announcement-1eb78b3ba3fc
“But I have extraordinary confidence that the leaders of our party will be able to create a process from which an outstanding nominee emerges” 🤷♀️I saw this yesterday, and I wonder why no one is reporting it? Here's the take away from Barack's lengthy message: "But I have extraordinary confidence that the leaders of our party will be able to create a process from which an outstanding nominee emerges."
Many people may be assumed he wrote this before Harris was chosen, but it's not. It looks like the candidacy is wide open.

Then there's the static fire test of the Tianlong-3 last week. Perhaps someone forgot to bolt it in place? Anyway, entertaining from a 4th of July fireworks perspective...

So let the speculation begin (or continue)!
Since it seems more likely than ever (though not guaranteed) a new Demo candidate will be thrust forth (sts) - who will it be? Some choices:
- That person who is the current VP (Harris)
- Michele Obama
- That person who ran against trump in 2016
- Gavin Newsome
- Kennedy
- Your Mom

In other news, here is Schumer trying to show you that he’s just an ordinary guy who knows how to grill hamburgers. What’s funny is that I’m sure a few of his top advisors looked at this picture before giving the thumbs up that it was good for social media, which means those same people are just as clueless when it comes to operating a grill. Personally I don’t really care if a politician knows how to do basic grilling or not, I just don’t like them trying to gaslight me that they’re “just like us” when they’re clearly not.
His wieners look done though - that's probably what he's smiling about.

<SNIP>because right now we have no strategic end state and are walking down another Vietnam/afghanistan.
Sorry, I don't see either boots on the ground or air assets employed downrange there, what are we walking down exactly?

Is it better to fight someone with a strategic and tactical advantage or negotiate with them?
So many more factors, like the adversary's motivation. Are they motivated to stop the shenanigans? Or, how do their goals change the way they think? Or, are they just d*cks?

Likely Chaos - they are encouraging this chaos.
Interesting outflow of the Columbia situation. There were 280 arrests...not a SINGLE person went to jail. They were all processed off site and released. 170 got summonses to appear before a judge, the rest were issued simple tickets.
<SNIP>
"'What was given to me by my team, a preliminary review of the numbers, just the beginning process of analyzing, but it appears, though, that over 40% of those who participated in Columbia and CUNY were not from the school and they were outsiders,” Adams told NPR during a media blitz.'"

Sorry.
She is a paid instructor & PhD candidate at Columbia studying "theories of the imagination & poetry as interpreted through a Marxian lens"

The Chicoms have a solution - re-educate them! Not as easy as it sounds of course.
Here's something to watch out for... When all of these children go home at the end of term, we will see if the protests continue and what types of agitators show up.

Wonder how many are thinking the -60 crew was unaware the CRJ was going to turn to the NW in front of them?
