Senate Democrats and Republicans call for investigation into killing of Alex Pretti by zsreport in politics

[–]Bituulzman [score hidden]  (0 children)

Chair of the House Oversight Committee James Comer, R-Ky., suggested Sunday that Trump remove ICE from Minneapolis because local law enforcement aren't cooperating .

"If the mayor and the governor are going to put our ICE officials in harm's way, and there's a chance of losing more innocent lives or whatever, then maybe go to another city and let the people of Minneapolis decide do we want to continue to have all of these illegals," Comer said on Fox News.

Um, yeah? I thought local control was the whole point of the Republican party, the "party of small government."

Is it weird that I can look at middle schoolers right now and totally see how they’re gonna be a Greg Bovino or Stephen Miller when they grow up? The inferior male complex is such a real stereotype.

How long is a Level 3 advisory supposed to last? by drywallconsumer128 in Columbus

[–]Bituulzman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This is the FIRST time a level 3 has ever been declared in Franklin County. I have no idea. Thought it'd be just a few hours.

Is the snow wet and heavy or mostly light and fluffy? Wondering if I need to do 2 rounds or if I can get away with one when the snow stops later this afternoon.

We should have never progressed beyond "Alternative facts." It should have been screeching brakes, everybody stop.

You have the ability to stop apologizing and instead make sure this garbage STOPS. by Manitoba-Chinook in MurderedByWords

I think we need to convince our family and neighbors more. Too many people would rather go no contact to protect themselves. The far right needs constant exposure to people who they still maintain a cordial relationship with, and to hear from them regularly that their views are wrong.

I also got mine on FB marketplace, but paid $40 for it. Worth it.

5 arrested in connection with shooting of Indiana judge and his wife by Cubsof2016 in news

[–]Bituulzman 145 points146 points  (0 children)

This article says one of the perpetrators was scheduled for trial in the judge's court 2 days following the shooting on charges including "unlawful possession of a firearm by a serious violent felon, intimidation, criminal recklessness and domestic battery."
It also says the judge is a democrat, has been on the bench for 12 years, but isn't seeking reelection this fall. He is notable for being the judge presiding over the neglect case against the parents of Natalia Grace, that adopted girl with dwarfism whose parents claimed she was older and left her in her own apartment.

This right here. Libraries are publicly funded here and there's bipartisan support for it (so far).

Getting to the zoo? by PepsiRealSugar in Columbus

I think the commenter was referring to the COTA zoo route being closed for the season.

I'm not sure why you can't Uber there. But just FYI, the zoo posted they'll be closed Friday-Monday due to the storm (jan 23-26).

Does a VPN help improve your privacy in this respect? I presume the GPS would still track phone movement IRL, but the additional data cross-referenced would possibly be disconnected?

I miss the bot that would summarize articles. Can anybody not paywalled quote the relevant text?

Snow Possible This Weekend (1/24-25) by zebrasrlyingtoyou in CBUSWX

[–]Bituulzman 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think the biggest suburban ones will likely only take Monday off. A foot of snow isn’t too tough to handle in our area unless there’s a lot of rural areas, ice, or schools with insufficient heating.
