The neighbor of Botham Jean, who was instrumental in Guyger's conviction, was "killed ... after being shot several times

hmm weird probably a coincidence

@Unionhawk Fuck

Ugh the world is fucked up

So is the mobile site...

It seems Trump's new plan is to blame the Ukraine scandal on spins wheel Rick Perry. Not even kidding

There's a second whistleblower for the call with Ukraine, this one with first-hand knowledge

@TimStone first hand being in the room during the call or on the call aswell?

Dunno

The RCMP are compiling daily threat reports on online hate targeting federal political leaders during this election campaign, fearing it could spill over into real-world violence, sources tell CBC News. cbc.ca/news/politics/rcmp-violence-campaign-1.5305905

> Government sources close to the file say there's been an increase in online posts condoning violence during this campaign — and one of the investigators' main areas of concern is the growing number of anti-immigration posts.

> Quebec Conservative candidate Mariam Ishak said Montreal police offered her extra security after five of her campaign signs were defaced with anti-Semitic graffiti. She turned them down.

Fuck racists and the alt right, but I'm glad to see the RCMP taking them seriously.

> The Democrats are lucky that they don’t have any Mitt Romney types. They may be lousy politicians, with really bad policies (Open Borders, Sanctuary Cities etc.), but they stick together!

uh somehow I triggered Twitter rate-limiting?

????

Ah, shoot, the President saying Democrats are unified is really gonna undercut some thinkpieces

@TimStone points at Joe Manchin III

He's totally wrong but he said it so now we just gotta roll with it like everything else!

ok there Twitter calmed down

> Over a period of years, a convicted drug trafficker used specially rigged eyeglasses fitted with hidden cameras and a hollowed-out Bible with a lens peeking through the O in HOLY to capture the violent world inside this Florida prison

> Dental hygienist labeled sexual abuser and stripped of license because he slept with a patient — to whom he is married

wtf Canada?

The title is clickbaity, they're literally just married and because she has anxiety about cleanings he booked her with himself and then someone went "OH THEY'RE MARRIED SO THEY HAVE SEX THAT'S NOT OKAY!"

@TimStone THis is really fucking stupid

I'm also super confused how they fixed the law but only for dentists

Really feel like that's a "spirit of the law" situation

@TimStone So this isn't a law, per say, from what I understand. It's Ontario dental board or something. He's going to court over it.

Yeah that's probably true, the wording here was confusing:

> he began booking his wife for cleanings in 2015 after erroneously believing a bill allowing dentists to perform dental work on their significant others also applied to hygienists

Like does the dental board have its own "bills"?

Yeah I'm not sure how it all works

@TimStone might be more weirdly worded to sound more generic but is actually limited to a few professions. ie. a bill for "teaching staff" but doesn't affect Lecturers or Kindergarten Teachers

or in this case might be a list of "procedures" that "medical professions" can perform of spouses

like maybe the difference between actually working on the body VS prevention

> @chucktodd: "I have no idea why we're going here. ... Can we please answer the question I asked you instead of trying to make Donald Trump feel better here that you're not criticizing him?"

lol, imagine getting owned by Chuck Todd, my word

Wait Palmer Luckey wants to become a defense contractor that makes swarms of drones to take out other swarms of drones and he called it Anduril? Why are we doing this when we could just as easily not be doing this?

I was just listening to Kim Campbell, the first female Canadian PM, and I love her. She's awesome.

She was talking a lot about sexism in politics, and in general. About how theirs assumption trying to hire woman means you're losing something, since the default assumption is male. Also talks about how woman tend to struggle more in politics because the parties often put men in "stronghold" districts they already know they'll win, whereas woman are tossed into hard to win districts.

@TimStone wtf

> Prince Andrew has reportedly claimed that the purpose of his 2010 visit to Jeffrey Epstein's home was to end their friendship

lmfao I'm sure that'll check out my dude

> As President Trump urged Ukraine’s leaders to investigate his political rival Joe Biden, associates of his personal lawyer Rudy Giuliani were looking to profit from the country’s state-run natural gas company, AP sources say

Ahhhh put it in a pipeline to my veins

oh wait, that's right, @TimStone already posted it and i replied

where did that day go in my memory
