We now have a case in Kentucky of an officer charged with using Flock cameras to track a woman. Other officers in the U.S. also have been investigated for using Flock license plate readers to track somebody they know personally. Here's a roundup of such cases: ij.org/police-have-...
An officer with the Shively Police Department is suspended without pay and facing criminal charges for allegedly using the department’s Flock camera system to conduct more than 2,000 searches on the license plate of a woman he tracked and harassed in Kentucky and Indiana.

It seems Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear has been briefed on Fancy Farm.
"Rand Paul apparently said I’d been 'neutered' by my legislature. Rich coming from a guy who’s never had a pair of balls and if he did they’d be held by Trump."

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

we should want to make it undeniable that there is no choice but to end ICE, prosecute its officers for lawbreaking, and fundamentally rethink immigration enforcement.

In a Maine airport, overhearing a girl, maybe 11, asking her dad if the U.S. is friends with every country, with France, and then saying it seems like the U.S. "isn't being nice" to others.
If she were president, she says, she would drop candy from planes on all countries.
