Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and incoming interim Police Chief Amelia Huffman on Wednesday touted a new crime-fighting plan that calls for hiring dozens of new police officers, expanding partnerships with other law enforcement agencies and beefing up units focused on investigating violent robberies and carjackings. Speaking to reporters at City Hall, Frey said that the department plans to hire five recruit classes to help close a staffing gap created by the departures of hundreds of officers since the murder of George Floyd in the spring of 2020.(Snip)Since the start of 2020, the department has lost roughly 300 officers, creating significant staffing shortages.

Comments:

He wants to disband the police department, but he also wants to hire more police officers. Who is the bigger clown, Mayor Boy Jacob or the voters who allow him to stay in office?

Does he think people are lining up to apply for police jobs in Minneapolis? I'll bet they can't meet the minimun number for a class of recruits.

Ask Ilhan Omar(D-Somalia) if some of her warlords will sign up. Give them a 1990's pick-up truck and their eyes will gleam with delight.

Arrest all you want, but will the Prosecutor actually prosecute the Perps? If not, then it is all a waste. Examples: New York City, San FranFeces, etc.

Treasure hunters who believe they found a huge cache of fabled US civil war-era gold in Pennsylvania are now on the prowl for something as elusive as the buried booty itself: government records of the FBI’s excavation.

Seattle—An investigation by Seattle's Office of Police Accountability (OPA) shows officers exchanged fake radio transmissions about a nonexistent group of right-wing extremists at a crucial moment during 2020 racial justice protests. Fake radio chatter on June 8, 2020 about members of the Proud Boys marching around downtown Seattle, some possibly carrying guns, and then heading to confront protesters on Capitol Hill was an improper “ruse,” or dishonest ploy, that exacerbated a volatile situation, according to OPA's report.(Snip)June 8, 2020, was the day the Seattle Police Department abandoned the East Precinct in the Capitol Hill neighborhood following protests sparked by the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis.

The Washington Examiner has broken what is, so far, the best story of the year: It turns out that Jill Biden has her own “walk-up” music. That is, whenever she makes an official appearance, this music is played for her, just as Hail to the Chief is played when the president appears. Someone within the Marine Corps band wrote it, although there is some dispute as to whether the White House requested such music or the Marine Corps band members spontaneously felt that Jill needed that special song.

Green Bay quarterback Aaron Rodgers has become persona non grata to progressives. Which is, truthfully, a remarkably easy feat. He started irritating them around a year ago when he criticized politicians who didn’t obey their own COVID-19 mandates. More recently he deplored the “woke mob” and “cancel culture.” The woke mob became truly apoplectic when Rodgers wasn’t clear about his vaccination status and then spoke with popular podcaster Joe Rogan, subsequently saying he had availed himself of the same COVID-19 treatment Rogan claimed to have used successfully. You know, the so-called “horse de-wormer.” Which is not a Dr. Fauci-approved “vaccine.”
