@shannonrwatts This is a poll of registered voters. The same Marquette poll when sampling likely voters instead had them even at 44-44

A statement from the family of Alex Pretti, obtained by CNN:

"We are heartbroken but also very angry.

Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the hero term lightly. However his last thought and act was to protect a woman.

The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He has his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down all while being pepper sprayed.

Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you."

The Star Tribune reports that federal agents "attempted to order local police from the scene" where a man was shot and killed by feds this morning, but Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara refused and "instructed his officers to preserve the scene." https://t.co/O6UB4REvJf

@katiejwoo I'll always be so grateful for the way that you covered the final season of Albert and Yadi. It was the end of era and, for many of us like myself, the goodbye to our childhood legends. Your respect, knowledge, and grace throughout it was an inspiration. Good luck Katie!!

@NateSilver538 It feels to me like "inflation" got tied so tightly to Biden that it's now synonymous in most people's minds with him + the Dems. Maybe it is focus grouped, but I assume "affordability" works because it gets at the same issue without activating the same neural path as inflation

@alessiacara Absolutely stellar! Already looking forward to the next one!

@ThunderWolf08 What was internet connectivity during the ride like? I know a lot of people (myself included) that would happily choose this over a flight provided they can do some remote work during the trip

In the end, nearly 7k characters died before 880 and development was wiped to 0 in every county in the world outside of India and the Himalayas. This expansion rules

So my friends and I started a @CrusaderKings playthrough with the Black Death occurrance set to "random" on an 867 start and uh... I'm not sure humanity even survives this?

I finally stopped procrastinating and started playing @UnpackingALife and wow I can't believe I waited this long. A beautiful game and an absolute masterclass in digital storytelling. I'll be recommending this game for years to come.
