@PenguinSix Watched a new pool fill from hydrant once in north metro Atlanta. Water was brown, it was same thing you drink but it looked like the Chattahoochee. Took a couple weeks to clean it.

More here: The drone used was a 24-foot Navy Corsair made by Saronic Technologies, said Navy Capt. Tim Hawkins, a Central Command spokesman.

The crew were picked up by the vessel, taken to a second location on the water, and then hoisted up into a helicopter.

The Corsair was first fielded in Centcom in March, shortly after the war with Iran began.

@actionxander That's the same look Jeep owners have when the dealer explains their warranty is void because they found evidence of muddy water on top of gas tank.

Video submitted video on Sunday from the Dayton Kwik Trip.

"Suspect was seen by bystanders and Kwik Trip employees going through employee & customer cars parked off in non-pump parking spots.

Kwik Trip staff called the police and the suspect remained in their vehicle for 10+ mins.

Rogers PD was first to arrive on scene and put the driver at gun point. Hennipen County arrived second to assist with the removal and arrest of the suspect in the vehicle.

Maple Grove PD & Corcoran PD were last to respond. I did not see Dayton PD even though this is basically Dayton, MN at the border.

Police did mention that the Silver Chevy Impala was stolen also.

Suspect was a young male, wearing traditional Somali dress robes."

The police can't revoke a concealed carry permit based on arbitrary decisions of licensing officials. Today, I directed @CivilRights' 2A Section to investigate the Philadelphia Police Department's practice of revoking the CCWs of those lawfully carrying firearms in public.

Justice Department Opens Investigation of Philadelphia Police Department’s Allegedly Unconstitutional Permit Revocation Practices

“I have directed the Civil Rights Division, through our Second Amendment Section, to defend law-abiding citizens from local authorities who infringe the right to safely carry legal firearms,” said @AAGDhillon. “Law-abiding Americans, regardless of where they live, should not have to worry that their city will revoke their means of self-defense.”

Here's something many people don't know about me -

Before I publicly dissected the long list of problems in the 1619 Project, I contacted the New York Times through their official channels to request a series of corrections to unambiguous factual errors in its content. The editor - Jake Silverstein - brushed me off and refused any correction - a pattern he also exhibited toward other critics from across the spectrum.

Before I publicly broke the story about Kevin Kruse's plagiarism in Reason, I contacted Princeton's academic integrity officer and alerted him to the problems I had found, giving them a chance to respond and address it internally. They ignored my email and later claimed to have lost my email after I went public.

Before I published my findings on Quinn Slobodian's habitual manipulation of source materials to alter its plain meaning through misquotation, I submitted an article to Contemporary European History (the journal where the worst examples appeared), highlighting the problems with the passages and asking for a correction through their official process. They desk-rejected it, brushed me off, and falsely claimed that Slobodian's piece had been thoroughly vetted in peer review. In fact, one of their own referees had flagged the same problems over a year earlier and recommended rejection of the article.

Before I published an expose on Nancy MacLean & Sandy Darity's similar manipulation of W.H. Hutt quotations in their article for History of Economics Review, I (along with 2 coauthors) submitted a response comment to this journal asking for a correction through its official processes. The editor gave us a complete runaround where he imposed an arbitrary length limit requiring us to cut the content, sent the trimmed version to a referee, then rejected the piece because the referee said we didn't sufficiently address the very same things we were forced by the editor to cut. When I then asked the editor to issue a simple corrigendum to the most egregious misquotation (one that transformed Hutt's explicit attack on the racism of white Afrikaners into a defense of Apartheid), he refused and tried to pass it off as a difference of "interpretation."

Before I published an expose of a leading covid masking model in the Wall Street Journal, I sent a comment to the medical journal that published it alerting them to a math error that changed their entire set of results. The journal acknowledged the error was real but refused to publish my piece on the grounds that the "next release" of the model would be updated to reflect it - even as politicians up to and including Joe Biden were trumpeting the erroneous results all over the news.

It's interesting that nobody who knew Graham Platner until he started running for Senate has really come forward to vouch for him. His campaign gathered some ex-girlfriends who anonymously defended him to NYT, but that's about it.

The reason that Republicans have not set up their own ballot harvesting operation is too long for a tweet, but here is the summary:

It is illegal to harvest ballots as a Republican. Not technically, but if you are GOP and you step out of line on even the smallest thing, they will put you in jail for 20 years.

People demanding "proof" of election fraud are not understanding how crime works. I worked at Manhattan DA for over 2 years, one in Homicide. We never had video proof of the crime. We almost never had DNA. These are things that occur on CSI on TV, not in real life. And we still convicted people all the time.

What we had was testimony and circumstantial evidence. Travel times, bank records, cell phone data, gate access codes. Motive, capability, benefit, time and place. Never direct proof. Of course the defendant always denied the crime, but there was enough evidence to show that one had to have occurred nonetheless.

If what we have in the LA Mayoral election is a statistical anomaly that is beyond reasonable explanation with anything besides fraud, that is enough to prove a crime. This has been true since the beginning of Western Civlization.

The story about the drone rescue of these Apache pilots is fascinating and cool... but it is important to know why the helicopter went down, and if the Iranians did it. CENTCOM's careful language does not rule out that possibility.

[Shelby Holliday @shelbyholliday]

A Navy drone boat (USV) found and rescued the Apache crew from the water, per Centcom spokesman Capt. Tim Hawkins.

It’s an operation first and a big deal for 5th Fleet’s Task Force 59, the Navy’s first operational AI and drone task force.

Two inmates who escaped from a North Carolina detention center last week were taken into custody in Asheville early Tuesday morning. New video from the N.C. State Bureau of Investigation shows the two inmates during their escape.
